The Former Hero Reveals the Dusk’s Deception

A shrill sound resounded, and at the same time, Allen sighed—a deep, exasperated sigh.

“You just had to go and cause trouble, didn’t you? And here I was planning on leaving you be.”

“Wha... You! Do not interfere!” Alfred ordered.

“You’re the one interfering with my quiet life,” said Allen. Well, whatever. Away with you!”

Sword of Cataclysm: Everflowing Blade.

“Ghkk!”

Allen braced his arm only slightly, bringing his blade down, then kicking at Alfred. As a move that didn’t use his blade, the kick had little destructive power, but in this situation that didn’t matter—Alfred was sent flying several meters away.

Allen sighed as he looked over his shoulder. “I know you won’t listen to a word I say, and I don’t have the right to say it anyway, but will you be a little more careful? I doubt I can hide this from Beatrice. She’s gonna chew you out later. And me too, probably.”

“Allen? How did you...” Riese started.

“Oh, how did I jump in at the perfect moment? I was watching the whole time. Sorry for eavesdropping, even if it did turn out to be a good idea.”

“Hm? Um...can I ask how much you heard?”

“Sure, but not now, all right? I have the feeling we’re about to be interrupted.”

“Hm?”

Allen averted his eyes from the confused Riese and back in the direction of the man he had sent flying. Alfred rose without difficulty in spite of the heavy armor he wore, a testament to his physical abilities—or perhaps he was simply adept at ignoring pain.

“Hngh... Allen? Riese’s former betrothed? The good-for-nothing?”

“Huh. You know, it really hasn’t been that long since I last heard the term, but it feels like a long time. I guess a lot’s already happened since then. Now that I think about it, how the hell did I end up in this situation? I was supposed to be coming out here for a peaceful life. I guess that plan was messed up from the jump, though.”

“Quite arrogant, aren’t you? Very well. I won’t mince words. Get out of here! Do not interfere with my plans!”

“Yeah, sorry for interjecting when you’re all worked up about something or other, but I don’t really feel like hashing it out with you. Not much point in arguing with someone who isn’t acting under their own will, after all.”

“What? Don’t tell me you—”

“I just said I don’t feel like dealing with all this. Let’s have the old Alfred back.”

Parallel Wisdom: Domain Mastery—Spellbreak.

Allen thrust his palm out toward the man, then clenched his fist, as if crushing something in his hand—which, in a way, was exactly what he was doing. A moment later, Alfred collapsed like a puppet whose strings had been cut.

“Wha... A-Allen? I... What did you just...” Riese stammered.

“Huh? Oh, I didn’t kill him. I mean, you can’t kill someone who’s already dead.”

“What?!”

As they spoke, something about the collapsed man changed. He slowly rose to his feet, wearing a look that said he couldn’t believe what he was witnessing. Allen simply shrugged.
