Gate of Heaven, the train station of Sky Island.
Just as Simon was preoccupied with saying goodbye to Lethe, another group of people was entering the station.
“There!”
“Inspector!”
Simon’s eyes widened as he turned his head.
When someone said it, the selectors who had been living together were waving their hands and running. Now they were all familiar faces.
“Wow, there really is! thank god!”
“Were you planning on leaving without saying goodbye?”
Simon looked at Lethe with bewildered eyes. Lethe shook her head as if she didn’t know at all.
How did you know where we were?
“Did you forget that my father and brother are serving as Paladins?”
As if he had read Simon’s question, one selected student stepped forward first.
A personality among the personalities recognized by Simon. Eighth Aitula was laughing round and round.
“Among the new trains passing through the station, we investigated vehicles that came in as special dispatchers in addition to regular dispatchers.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“May the goddess’ protection always be with you. I hope to see you again someday!”
“Thank you, Aitula. I’m glad you recovered quickly.”
While Simon and Aitula happily shook hands, boom! There was someone who wrapped his neck around him.
“Hey, number 10! Without you, boring classes became more boring. Maybe it’s good.”
When someone said it, it was the 2nd sway.
Simon raised his head and forced a smile.
“Sway, thank you for coming to help this time.”
“It’s taken for granted, call me later. Grab me and let’s go hang out with the girls.”
Simon, freed from his grasp, clasped his hands together and closed his eyes.
“Samuel said, Get off the tongue of Satan, shun immorality and greed, and focus on climbing the path to heaven.”
“It doesn’t suit you until the end, kid.”
Sway giggled in disgust.
Meanwhile, another person stepped forward.
“I apologize once again for what happened in the cave at that time. Investigator.”
No. 3 Maricello bowed his head bone by bone with his hands together. Simon smiled.
“Study hard. Don’t reveal the secret.”
At those words, Maricello’s face turned red.
“Oh, noisy. If you’re going, why don’t you go soon?”
And the one with arms folded beside him is Meryl No. 1.
“It was kind of strange. Among my peers, there’s no way I’m pushed by my skills. It was unpleasant to meet you, and let’s not see each other again!”
“I hope you learned something from your defeat in the new math class, Merrill.”
“profit!”
Seeing Meryl’s blush, Simon laughed loudly.
“Oh, Lisa… … No, Saint Lisara?”
“The saintess is being held by the Vatican,” Meryl licked her lips.
“How they got the essence, why they killed Euclid, and other investigations will continue. You can’t even come to the rookie worship meeting, so it’s probably hard to get out.”
“I see.”
“Still, one minute here.”
Merrill pointed back. In the distance, I heard the sound of dust rising.
It was none other than the fact that he approached the station, causing sand to become hazy in an instant.
“Ha ha ha ha ha! You are going now!”
It was Broderick, a professor of guardianship.
“Professor Broderick! I owe you a lot!”
“I’m worried because I’ve lost my appetite lately at the news that talented people like you are gone!”
he shook his head.
“Don’t you want to put aside your rhetoric for a while and learn guardianship under me?”
Ooh, it’s embarrassing.
Simon let out a forced laugh at that thought.
“I really want to, but I have a lot of other things behind me.”
“okay! I can’t help it! Given the circumstances, I understand the delay in meeting my daughter!”
He took something out of his robe pocket and poked it at Simon.
It was a picture of his daughter.
“If you’re a man, there’s no way you can get away with my daughter’s charms! If you feel like you want to meet at any moment, come up to the sky island immediately!”
“Ah, I see.”
Simon quickly changed the subject.
“How about Professor Gafen?”
“ah. Professor Gafen.”
Broderick turned his head for a moment, met Lethe’s eyes, and smiled strangely.
“I can’t come because I’m busy, but I want to say my regards.”
“okay! Please tell me my regards too.”
After everyone said goodbye, Simon got on the train.
I sat on the train seat and looked out the window to see people all waving. Finally, Lethe came closer and said.
“The various aspects you showed here, the attitude of treating people without prejudice. It was impressive. Everyone thinks you are a good person.”

“… … Lethe.”
“Please remember. Even if some parts go against the will of the Federation and the Goddess.”
Lethe’s eyes sparkled.
“I will be on your side.”
“Thank you, Lethe.”
Soon, the car body rattles and the new train starts to depart. While everyone was waving their hands, a murmur suddenly grew.
[Investigator!]
It was none other than Lisara who was flying through the sky and chasing after her.
She was no longer a demon, but a female angel clad in light.
“Lee, Lisa?”
Embarrassed, Simon poked his head out the window. She handed something to her fingertips.
[I heard from Sister Aitula! I prepared a packed lunch in case you get hungry on the way!]
“Oh, thank you! By the way, you are being investigated by the Holy See, is it okay to come out?”
[You’ll get scolded later.]
Lisara said that and put her hand on my chest.
[The teachings the investigator taught me, the graces bestowed upon me, I will live while engraving them in my heart. Waiting for the time to return this favor to the investigator someday!]
Soon after, she opened her eyes and said with wide eyes.
[Can I see you again?]
“of course.”
Simon smiled and nodded.
“Let’s meet again someday.”
[yes! May the blessings of the goddess be with you on your great journey!]
The sacred train is gradually accelerating. Lisara stopped flying and shook his hand.
***
The images of Lisara, her classmates, Professor Broderick, and Lethe are getting farther and farther apart.
Soon they were out of sight, and Simon straightened up and sat down.
‘Utcha, shall we take a rest now?’
The tension was relieved, and I felt languid.
There was no one else in the car, perhaps because it was on an unofficial train arranged by Lethe. Simon was alone. He enjoyed a moment of peace looking out the window at the scenery.
The scenery outside, the feeling under my feet, it felt like I was riding in an airship rather than a train. Of course, after a while the aerial track will go lower and lower, and sooner or later it will land on the ground.
While Simon is taking a break.
Chunk.
I heard the door of the train compartment open.
‘Are you a train employee?’
It’s an unofficial dispatcher, but I confirmed earlier that some people were on board. Simon turned his head indifferently.
‘!!’
I felt the blood in my whole body run cold.
The silver armor visible inside the robe.
Hair flowing down the hood and red lips.
The sharp moonlight emanating from the sword in his hand, and even the sparkling eyes.
“We met again.”
her mouth was open
“Euclid, no, Lethe’s investigator.”
It was Dana, the saint of judgment.
Simon, who was sitting in the seat, jumped forward quickly and assumed a fighting stance.
“Why are you on this train… … !”
“It’s sad.”
She said again with a sad expression.
“If you see a saint, you should pay your respects, so do you even think about fighting?”
sereung.
She flipped her grip on the sword and slowly raised it, pointing the tip toward the window. she said as Simon regained her cool.
“What is your reason for doing this?”
“There is a naughty side. How can you keep saying it with my mouth when you know it clearly?”
She smiled eerily.
“Be mine.”
Simon also smiled and raised his fighting spirit.
“I decline.”
After answering that, his pupil sneakily checked out the window.
In broad daylight, the ‘moon’ appears through the window, shining brightly on the tip of her sword.
“I can’t.”
Soon, Dana grabbed the sword with both hands, and suddenly turned around and swung the sword in the direction of the window instead of Simon’s.
A cut that makes no sound or sign.
But Simon could sense it.
‘I must have cut something!’
Simon’s head jerked.
Suddenly, the connecting device of the train Simon was on was cut left and right like cheese splitting without any sound or warning. Soon, only this train deviated from the track and began to fall.
‘Keugh!’
thud!
In an instant, Simon hit the wall of the train car with shock and widened his eyes.
The head car of the train is slowing down by itself in a sudden shock and emergency, and only the car with two people is falling from the sky.
“I dug up your statue.”
Dana, standing still with her feet together in the falling train car, opened her mouth.
“It was clean. There are records, but they are all fiction. It was concluded that it was a very elaborate fake identity, a non-existent person.”
She bent her knees slowly.
“I was convinced that if I caught you and investigated, I would be able to damage even the Saint of the Stars. Of course, I will make you completely mine before that.”
‘come!’
Dana’s body surged like lightning from the falling train car.
‘Start with defense!’
Simon took a defensive stance with his divinity in both hands as high as possible, and Dana struck Simon ignorantly with the back of her sword.
‘!!’
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Simon’s body flew backwards and crashed into the wall. Along with the pain of crushing his body and bursting his organs, Simon groaned! and vomited.
‘This… … ! Aren’t you too strong?’
In Simon’s mind, the image of Lethe, who had been in a fight with Dana and was battered, came to mind.
‘With divinity alone, you can’t win no matter what! Chaos or Vortex needs some preparation time! Should I use the power of the Legion? But if I show pitch black in front of Dana, Lete, who has a connection with me, is doomed!’
“I can hear the head rolling from here too.”
jerk jerk.
Dana drew her sword and approached.
“The mental strength to devise a win without breaking the fight right away is great, but the opponent was bad.”
The moment she tries to raise her sword again.
snap!
Suddenly, he feels a hand grabbing Simon from beyond the wall of the train.
“Are you all right, Detective?”
I heard the voice of a third person, and soon Simon’s body went through the wall and got out of the train. In an instant, clouds appeared around and strong winds blew.
“Whoa!”
An out of nowhere view outside the train.
As Simon fell from a high altitude, he turned his head to see who had pulled him out.
“Go, Professor Gafen?”
“I was watching you all the way from the room.”
Gafen smiled.
As he beckoned, a large ring of divinity formed in the direction of the fall. Inside the ring, I saw a different landscape.
“Saint Dana might be targeting the investigator, so please be kind to her, Saint Lethe asked.”
“ah!”
“Hold tight!”
The moment the two bodies passed through the ring, the surrounding scenery changed at once.
Looking back at Simon, the sacred train that was nearby just a moment ago had gone far away.
“Go, is it a space-type ability?”
“Not quite like that. A type of movement magic made with divine mechanics… … .”
Chaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!
Gafen hurriedly turned his head. His hair was cut and blown in the headwind.
Soon, Dana, who smashed the train car in the distance, was flying with a divine spirit.
[Give him up! Gafen!]
Simon was cold.
The figure of Dana pouring out her anger with her eyes wide open. What kind of a saint does that mean? It was 100 times more creepy than Lisara’s monstrous appearance.
“Hold tight, Detective. Let’s go a little faster.”
A sudden chase began.
Gafen and Simon rode the ring one after another and gradually increased the distance. As soon as I passed through the loop, the next loop was waiting for me. It is indeed super-fast movement.
“Are you okay?”
Gafen turned his head. Simon, who was already feeling sick, held his mouth and nodded his head.
“Yes, it is bearable.”
“Amazing. It’s normal to pass out after 2 or 3 turns when you first get on the ring.”
Simon just laughed.
‘I’ve ridden something like a death portal, but that’s about it. Rather.’
Whee-ae-ae-ae-ae-ae
‘What on earth is Dana that catches up with this speed?’
Dana was simply tracking the release of divinity.
Gafen, who found out that Simon had resistance, opened the ring more complicated and faster and escaped. However, it was the same with Dana that the flight speed was accelerated.
‘come!’
As she swung her sword, sword energy shot out.
Gafen is unable to react because he is busy making rings. Simon hastily stretched his left arm behind him.
-There are two most important factors in Guardian Science. What do you think?
‘Speed and.’
Kii-i-!
In an instant, the Divine Shield, the greatest protection magic Simon can use, unfolds.
‘Insight!’
Change the composition as a means to deflect the slash.
The moment the slash hits.
‘Break the shield.’
Chae Kaang!
The shield broke while holding the slash, slowing the speed of the sword strike, and in the meantime, Gafen and Simon moved on to the next ring with a gap of almost a piece of paper.
‘it’s okay!’
Simon succeeded in defending, and Gafen opened another ring.
however.
Whoa!
Dana suddenly appeared in front and cut the ring herself.
‘Did you reverse this distance with pure speed?’
“Hand over the child.”
That’s when she was about to swing her sword aiming for Gafen’s arm.
[Oh really.]
“I didn’t know you could mess around like this. I don’t know why you keep touching other people. Senior Dana.”
The flame of the comet disappeared and a person appeared.
It was Lethe.
Dana’s expression twisted in displeasure.
“you… … !”
“I didn’t expect to have a revenge match this soon. But now I’m in perfect condition, and I don’t have to worry about people.”
Lethe stretched out her hand.
“It is also close to the sky.”
Whoaaaaaaaagh!
Suddenly, the daylight turned into a night sky, and countless stars began pouring down.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Explosions of stars exploded innumerably like firecrackers in broad daylight. Simon involuntarily burst into cheers.
“Lethe!”
Lethe smiled brightly and waved to Simon.
“Now! Let’s go to this gap!”
Simon nodded. Gafen immediately made a loop, and the bodies of the two immediately passed through the loop.
Dana’s desperate cry echoed in the explosion.
Soon after passing through the ring of Gafen in succession, the sky island moves away and a safe land is visible.
Simon clenched his fist.
‘Let’s go back to the Dark Union!’
***
same time,
Dark Union, Leshil.
“Hehehe-”
Book in hand, Nephthys rolled across the sofa, picked up a donut piled on a plate, and tossed it into her mouth.
“When will Simon arrive?”
After devouring the mucky donut, her gaze turned to the side.
“I want to see it soon! Right, Richard?”
“ha ha ha.”
Richard answered, sweating profusely.
“Rather than waiting for me to come and wait like this, I would rather send a letter when Simon arrives… … .”
“no!”
Nephthys stubbornly shook her head and soon smiled brightly.
“I will wait here!”
Then Anna’s voice was heard from the kitchen.
“Miss Nephthys! I even baked some pancakes for a snack! Would you like to try it?”
“Anna is the best!”
Watching Nephthys sprint back to the kitchen, Richard grabbed his throbbing forehead.
‘It looks like something will happen.’
Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The stars flew in a straight line and hit Dana’s body.
Dana stumbled and was pushed back, and another comet flew in and caught up with her.
