To Be a Power in the Shadows!

"Time is upon us... this evening is a world of shadows..."

That was the word that greeted Beta, who visited under the shadow.

Shadow is sitting in a chair with his legs together with his back to Beta.

Beta knows a defenseless back, but that back is farther than anything.

A glass of wine shines in its hands illuminated by an antique lamp. And the brand of wine you're casually swallowing was one of the first things you know about betas that are oblivious to alcohol.

Beta was stunned to find a number of first-class items to color the room, and paintings hung on the wall.

It's a fantastic painting, Monk's Scream.

No matter how much wealth you have, you'll never get it. Exactly a piece of illusion.

Beta is going to ask me unexpectedly how the hell I got it, but I realize that doesn't make sense.

He's the one who got it.

That word comes with all the explanations.

His possession of The Monk Scream is just a natural consequence. Instead, you won't find yourself looking anywhere in the world, such as the Lord you deserve besides Him.

"The shady world. The hidden night of the moon is the world we truly deserve."

said Beta.

Shadow glances at Beta and just mouths the glass.

"Ready"

"Right."

I know everything. Such an illusion, such a discerning voice.

No, the fact of the matter. I guess pretty much everything Beta's going to say is spot on.

Still, Beta continued. Because that's her mission.

"Master Alpha's life has allowed all near-field personnel to assemble in the Wang Capital. 114 of them."

"114?

"Huh...!

Would it have been less?

Given the combat power of the Shadow Garden, it seems rather adequate.

but.

Beta notices a mistake.

114 elephants and so on are sidekicks. In fact, the adapter is less than 10% of the total. He's the star of the evening. When considering the lead role as a coloring sidekick, the number 114 is too small or too small.

"Also, sorry......!

"Did you even hire an extra...?

blocking Beta's words, he said. Extras, Beta doesn't know what that word means.

"No, it's nothing, it's about this one"

"Yes."

Beta doesn't matter any more. All of his words have reasons so profound that Beta can't even imagine them, and Beta has no right or strength to listen to them.

But still.

Beta could not contain her desire to stand next to it one day and support all of it.

One day, for that day.

Beta kept her words hidden in her chest.

"The operation is a simultaneous raid of the Diabolos denomination Fenrir Azito dotted in the King's capital. At the same time as the raid, we will investigate Princess Alexia's magic trail and switch to secure as soon as we find out where she is."

Shadow just nodded and urged ahead.

"The overall command of the operation is Gamma, but the field commander is Alpha, and I will assist him. Epsilon will be responsible for backward support, with Delta cutting ahead and signaling the start of the operation. The composition of each unit…"

Shadow raised one hand to control Beta telling the details.

One letter in his hand.

"An invitation."

Beta, who received that letter thrown, reads inside as prompted.

"This is..."

To the extra awkward invitation written there, Beta was angry at the same time as she was shuddered.

"It's bad for Delta... I'll play Prelude"

"Yes, arrange it that way"

"Follow me, Beta"

That's what he says and looks back.

"Tonight, the world will know us..."

Beta trembled at the joy of being able to fight together.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

The place written in the invitation was behind the forest road. Shadow appeared in student clothing at that location close to the scene where Princess Alexia was abducted.

Beta disappears slightly away from him and lurks in the woods.

After a while, two new signs approached.

And then something flies into the shadow.

Shadow, who took it with one hand, glances at it and squeals.

"These are... Alexia's shoes"

and then.

Two men emerged from the forest road.

"Hey, colored man. What happened to Princess Alexia's shoes?

"Ah. You have a perfect magic trail. You're the killer, Sid Cagheno."

The two men were dressed in Knights gear.

That was without a doubt the two knights who interrogated Sid.

"So that's what you mean?"

"Oh, that's what I mean"

To Sid's words, the Knights man niggered without even making excuses.

"If you'd just cracked your mouth, you wouldn't have had to do this."

"You didn't have to hurt yourself, either."

The two pull out their swords and inexorably cram into Sid's time.

Stupid...... Beta lost her word on their stupidity.

"Well, Sid Cagheno. I'm arresting you for kidnapping a princess."

"Don't resist, it's no use resisting."

One of them poked his sword at Sid laughing.

That moment.

"Oh?"

Sid stopped the sword with two fingers and flashed as he did.

Sid's right leg stroked the man's neck.

Blood erupted from the man's neck.

Sid's right leg is stretched with a pitch-black dagger.

"Ahhh... ahhh!!

The man falls by holding his neck. You will die soon.

"What the hell!!

Another man gets slashed by Sid in a hurry.

But that's too cheap, awkward.

Sid just leaned his neck and avoided it, paying for the man's legs as they were.

I could take the bottom off the man's knees.

"Ohhhhhhhhh!

Hold down the blood-spraying knee, and the man screams.

"Mine, my legs. No, no...!

And take a distance from Sid as he crawls.

"Oh, my God, don't think you can just do this to the Knights...! Oh, it's so hard to be the first to suspect us when we're dead!

Sid approaches the man just slowly walking down the bloodpath.

"Hih, hih...! And I'm so done...! It's over......!

Just desperate, unnecessarily a man crawls through the ground.

"If the night dawns... we'll find the bodies of two knights"

"Oh yeah, if it's dawn, it's over...!

The man crawls through the ground and Sid walks through traces of blood.

But there's nothing to worry about.

That's for a moment.

When I realized, there was Sid behind the man.

"Hih!

Sid flashed his right leg.

"If the night dawns... it's all over"

A man's neck flew through the universe.

Sid looks back as a splash of blood dances.

To that appearance, Beta trembled.

Sid in student clothes wasn't there.

What was there was a shadow wrapped in pitch black all over his body.

A pitch-black bodysuit with a pitch-black boot and a pitch-black knife in its hand make the pitch-black long coat wind.

Wearing the hood of the coat deep, the upper half of the face hides in the shadows and only the lower half hits the light.

Its face is also covered in the mask of an odd magician, and the only thing the face peeks into is the red eyes behind the mask.

Beta faints at the look of Rin and Beautiful, and rushes to retrieve her autographed "Shadow-like Warfare" note from the valley of her chest and sketches her shuba baba baba.

Add and complete the Shadow-like Tales of the Day next to the sketch. In the meantime, just 5 seconds.

For the record, Beta's own room is filled with shadow-like paintings and shadow-like stories on one side of the wall, and it's an irreplaceable pleasure to write a Shadow-like war book before going to bed.

and then. A blast in the distance brought Beta back to reality.

"Delta or... it's the beginning of Nocturne. Beta, let's go."

"Yes! I'm coming!

Beta pushes a note into the valley of her chest to chase him.

Naturally, he doesn't know such a beta ecology.
