70. Intermission

[Chakhedis] gradually collapsed.

Elizabeth's spirit body also gradually became transparent, and golden dust began to precipitate.

"It's really a joke... I've just reunited with you, and now I'm about to leave?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. It's already a miracle that you and I can meet again like this."

Animusfia said to Elizabeth who was a little reluctant in her arms.

".....Yes."

Animusfia had foreseen this result from the beginning of using Occam's razor.

Putting aside the two points of [Vampire] and [Dragon], Elizabeth Bathory's own spiritual power alone cannot maintain the existence of a heroic spirit.

Even Nadasdi, who had great achievements during his lifetime, could not become a heroic spirit, let alone his wife.

"However, it seems that it has been a while since you announced that you wanted to torture me."

Elizabeth's face was slightly red, and she muttered dissatisfiedly:

"How can that count... At that time, I felt like I wasn't me. I didn't recognize you either... Didn't you also fail to recognize me?"

Animusfia couldn't help but recall the terrifying appearance of the half-dragon, half-vampire in her mind, which was in sharp contrast to the beautiful young woman in front of her.

"How can others recognize you with your appearance...My face has never changed."

Moreover, if he failed to use "Occam's razor" on Elizabeth, he might not be able to recall what happened as far back as the sixteenth century.

After all, Animusfia is still not sure whether she really recalled those things, rather than seeing Elizabeth's past through magic.

It's just that, relying on Elizabeth's reaction and her own inner throbbing, Animusfia was more inclined to believe that she was related to Franz II Nadasti.

But this only made his doubts deepen.

Elizabeth suddenly wrapped her arms tightly around Animusfia's back.

Animusfia was stunned for a moment, then said helplessly:

"At this time, even if you are still so reluctant to leave -"

"This is a necessary parting scene, I know it very well. Although I really want to stay by your side more, I am very satisfied if we can see you again."

"You...have grown up."

A summary of Animusfia.

"Is it possible that I have always been a twelve-year-old child in your heart? After you left me behind, I spent ten years by myself. I should understand these things."

No matter in Animusfia's or Nadasidi's thinking circuit, Elizabeth was still visiting Chakdis City for the first time.

".....sorry."

I don’t know what aspect I am apologizing for.

"Really, it's too late to say it now."

Although she complained, Elizabeth still accepted Animusfia's apology with satisfaction.

Eventually, Elizabeth's spirit body began to disappear from beneath her feet, turning into mottled golden spots.

"It's almost time..."

Elizabeth said this and leaned into Animusfia's ear.

"The last thing I want you to do is give it to the little red-haired girl."

"Oh? Ritsuka?"

"Well, just tell her this: I'm sorry, Miss Ritsuka, I can no longer support your feelings. I would rather oppose it. Huh~hey~?"

【Hey~Hey~?】What is it...

It seemed that Elizabeth had learned some strange things in the Hall of Valor without Animusfia knowing about it.

As for the strange term "Fujimaru Ritsuka's feelings", he was also confused.

"Anyway, I will convey it to her properly."

"Then it's time to say goodbye for real, Ferenc."

Smiling, Elizabeth said her final goodbyes to Animusfia.

"Goodbye, Eliza."

Like a friend, Animusfia also said goodbye to Elizabeth.

In the end, Elizabeth's spirit body dissipated like other destroyed heroic spirits.

What Animusfia didn't see was the loneliness that could no longer be suppressed on Elizabeth's face at the last moment before returning to her seat.

Sure enough, I still want to spend more time with you.

........

Assassin's and Assassin's Noble Phantasms dissipated at the same time.

And with the dissipation of the Assassin Noble Phantasm [Chahedis],

Fujimaru Ritsuka, Animusfia and others appeared on French soil again.

"so---,"

The red-haired girl's eyes were full of doubts.

"Can you explain it? Director~"

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Animusfia kindly.

After reappearing on the land of the first singularity, Matthew and Georgos, who had been keeping a distance from Animusfia in the city of Chakdis, unexpectedly appeared together.

But even from a great distance, the Chaldean director, emitting a strange white light, was the only thing that stood out in the darkness.

Naturally, every move can be seen clearly.

"Senior, please calm down——! Calm down!"

Matthew tried his best to stop the red-haired girl who was about to climb the mountain.

"You can't calm down at all! The director and Elizabeth Bathory, that vampire, seem to be hugging each other very intimately!"

The girl screamed, preparing to attack Animusfia.

"I believe Mr. Animusfia has his own judgment."

Although he didn't know where Fujimaru Ritsuka learned martial arts, Giorgios couldn't help but explain Animusfiya when he saw the situation in front of him.

"Indeed, Ritsuka."

After Animusfia adjusted her expression, she turned around and suddenly said to the red-haired girl.

"Do you believe in past lives?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's face was full of doubt.

"If I told you about my acquaintance with Elizabeth Bathory in my previous life, would you believe it?"

"Indeed... If Mr. Director knew Assassin, he would be able to plead not guilty to Elizabeth Bathory herself. So in the end we can get out of Assassin's Noble Phantasm."

Matthew analyzed Animusfiya's words seriously.

"That's not the point at all! Matthew saw it too, right? The two of them were hugging each other, right?"

"this....."

Matthew was also speechless.

"Speaking of which, even if the director knew her in his previous life, why didn't he recognize her at first?"

"Because I just remembered it."

"...."

"Hey, Director, what was your relationship with that lady in your previous life?"

Animusfia's eyes suddenly drifted to the side.

"This is personal privacy."

"Ah! It's really suspicious!"

Although the words in his mouth were still full of energy, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly felt a little depressed.

........

Why is this happening? She can't explain it herself.

I just feel like the beating of my heart hurts.

"By the way, Eliza asked me to bring you a message."

"What is it?"

After cheering up, the red-haired girl asked Animusfia.

Animusfia concentrated on sorting out her mental state. Using the image of Elizabeth in her mind as a prototype, she imitated her and said to Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"I'm sorry, Miss Ritsuka, I can no longer support your feelings. I would rather oppose it. Hey~ Hey~?"

"What! [Eh~hey~?] What is it!"

Animusfia waved her hand and said:

"That's what I thought the first time I heard it. I thought you could understand it, but I didn't expect you didn't know it either. Now there's nothing I can do about it."

Hear it here.

Only the image of [Eh~hey~?] clearly appeared in Mashu’s mind.
