Volume 5 Chapter 35 Father and Daughter
I, Act, was locked in a final battle with the mastermind, Amou.
In his temple, perched on the MOON'S surface.
I could fight on equal footing with the Transcendent, thanks to donning the spirit armor... wrapping Frederica around me.
"......"
My fist was planted right in the center of Amou's chest.
I shattered his MIGHTIEST blow with a direct hit from the front.
"Congratulations... You win, that is..."
Amou was leaning against me.
He had the strength of ANOTHER dimension.
But... we managed to surpass it.
With a creak, Amou started to crumble right there on the spot.
The armor dissolved, and Frederica appeared beside me.
She was hugging Amou from the front.
"...What is it, Frederica?"
"...At least, let me watch over you in the END."
"Is that... because you're worried about your FORMER master...?"
Frederica's expression as she crouched down was hidden from me.
But her body was trembling.
"Please... don't misunderstand."
"Huh... misunderstand?"
"Yes. I... just... want to make sure you're TRULY dead. Pretending to be dead... would be such a bother, you see."
Her voice was shaking.
She was mourning the death of her former master.
...The blood on my hands vanished as the armor fell away.
But... the SIN couldn't be erased so easily.
The sin of laying hands on another person would stick with me for LIFE.
"Ah... you two... really are PERFECT for each other..."
With a quivering hand, Amou stroked Frederica's head.
"Well done... You did great, my DEAR daughter."
Amou gave a small smile, continuing to pat Frederica's head.
She hung her head, tears streaming down in LARGE drops.
