2nd Rank Has Returned - 2nd Rank Has Returned chapter 269

269 – The fight between the strongest in the world-2

The reason why Black Aria and White Aria fight is obvious.

Jealousy and self-loathing

It can’t be helped if Leo doesn’t like her, but he shouldn’t like that woman as much as she does.

‘I wonder what shame they have for sending Leo away like that…!’

The electric sound was not actually activated.

But for some reason, it felt like each other’s thoughts were floating in our heads.

Because we were essentially the same person, we were able to read each other’s thoughts to some extent. It was a mind-reading technique that was even worse than Jeonum in that it could only be understood if the intention was openly revealed.

There is only one reason why these two do not engage in a physical battle.

‘If it weren’t for Leo, it would just be…’

I couldn’t help but think that fighting openly considering Leo’s feelings was a nuisance based on common sense, even in this unusual situation.

The barbaric method of openly punching in the face of such a serious matter was nothing short of luxury, and was nothing short of a waste that provoked Leo’s guilt.

To that extent.

“…Are you…Are you okay?”

“Oh, of course!”

Ariasviel was smiling brightly, albeit awkwardly.

Baek Aria raised the corners of her mouth as much as possible, and although her holy sword could not actually smile, she reflected the sunlight with the blade, creating a bright atmosphere.

“Then I’m glad.”

Leo, who was less alert than a slug outside of battle, seemed to barely notice the rare dragon and tiger fight that the women were engaging in right now.

“…Well, I still have to take a bath. “She was sweating and her mental fatigue must have gone away.”

“I guess that’s true!?”

At the same time, joy and sadness intersect in Ariaspil, who was acting like a laugher.

Baek Aria was able to laugh sincerely.

Black Aria was sharpening her blade so that she could take down the warrior Aria at any time.

‘Shut your mouth. ‘If you say you want to do it, you’ll get a lump sum.’

The sight of intersecting emotions, the fact that they were the same being and knew each other’s emotions, made me feel even more contempt for them.

“I guess I’ll have to clean the holy sword as well.”

“Ah, then that’s good… Huh?!”

＜…&＞

Once again, joy and sorrow intersect.

This time, Baek Aria’s face lit up with jealous eyes,

Her black Aria holy sword had a strange light that could only be seen in a red light district, shining deceptively.

Feeling as if her voice was ringing, White Aria trembled with her arms as if her teeth were trembling.

‘Honestly… I’m honestly jealous…!’

By the time I had this thought, it was as good as losing. These two thoughts gradually resonated as one, and strong emotions were instantly recognizable.

It is quicker for the other person to recognize your feelings of defeat and jealousy than to recognize your own feelings.

Above all, she was just herself.

“…Now… Then…”

Leo looked at her bath and the holy sword with a slightly red face.

Due to the Holy Sword’s arbitrariness, it was difficult to bring up the [Cooperative action] That was brought up earlier in the current situation.

“Do you want to go in and wash first? “I will be sharpening the holy sword.”

“…That…That…”

Although Leo did not intend it, for Baek Aria, the sentence was more like burning her at the stake than just having her crucified.

The expected mixed bathing was rejected by Leo, and Black Aria, who sabotaged her, received the reward of being deeply polished by Leo.

It would be impossible to find a greater humiliation than this.

Because she was completely defeated by herself.

“…Okay… Thank you.”

‘It’s better to be criticized by Leo than to be praised by you.’

Even though she is herself, the fact that her speaking style subtly resembles Eileen’s adds to her ridicule.

As much as it is a tone of voice that is heard due to a mental connection, the more I recall that that pessimistic attitude was the basis of my own use in the first episode, the angrier I become.

“…Hu…”

After entering the bathroom, I exhale softly.

The excitement I feel now is no different from when I was a child. Moreover, if you become jealous now, the only one who will suffer damage is you.

‘Let’s stay calm… If you get angry, it’s your grandmother who has the advantage.’

If you think about it calmly, she is the one who has the advantage as time passes.

As long as he had a warm and lively body, he had the advantage of being able to narrow the distance between himself and Leo.

‘Today is not the end…’

＜…Leo there…!＞

The moment she was about to regain her cool-headed judgment, a faint groan rang out in the same voice as hers.

The original version was identical, but the sharp, trembling tone and emotions were so promiscuous that it was impossible to think they were the same.

＜…Please…! Below that…!＞

The dark self, who was looking down at himself with just the way he spoke, desperately pleaded. Black Aria, whose heart was closed like a cold wall of ice, melts under Leo’s warm gesture.

＜…Off…Ugh… Stop… I feel…＞

You can instinctively know. I’m not intentionally sending these thoughts into your head as a mockery.

I can tell because it is Aria herself.

“…Kwaa…Haa…Ang…”

Arias Phil, who had just taken off her clothes, also felt her senses as he crossed her thighs together. It is not a feeling of physical stimulation.

In the first place, the Black Aria in her holy sword would be close to insensitivity in reality.

“I guess it’s because she has so much divine power and so much strength, the only thing I can do is wipe off the dust.”

But just by the act of Leo wiping, his mind starts imagining things. I feel like my infinite trust in Leo is slowly calming my brain and putting me in a kind of hypnotic state.

It feels like using a wet dream to avoid masturbating yourself.

＜…No…! Not at the end…!＞

‘The tip of my chest… Tickles… Really… Ugh…!’

He quickly scoops up cold water from a bowl and sprinkles it all over his body.

It was to cool down my hot body and wipe away the sweat, but the biggest purpose was to not comfort myself like a loser in the bathroom.

“It goes without saying that it cannot be copied through projection… But it doesn’t matter if it can be analyzed at least.”

＜…Part…Analysis?＞

It wasn’t that I was dissatisfied with the analysis.

The Holy Sword is the best weapon for all demons, including the Demon Lord, and if you can bring out even similar properties, it will definitely be an advantage in battle.

But apart from the complaints, the problem was clear.

＜…You can’t do that…! You can’t go there…!?＞

The analysis magic tool that Leo took out may be the most suitable material for the analysis of the holy sword as it can be converted into a fluid material like black stone or liquid.

“Direct analysis of any particle structure…”

＜”No way…!!”＞

At one point, Black and White moaned in unison, loud enough for Leo to hear.

“…Aria?!”

Ariasviel ran out to Leo, wearing only a towel.

If he were to be touched by the tentacles of the black stone like Leo’s alter ego, his human reason would crumble before he could become a hero at all.

“…You…You…Didn’t…You didn’t clean it too well…?”

Leo was so embarrassed that he spoke gibberish, but he had no choice but to do so when faced with a being more vicious than the demon lord in front of him.

“…Ah…Ah…!”

It was impossible to cover Aria’s entire body with the towel we had at home.

In particular, the focus was on covering the huge chest, so the lower part of the body could not be completely covered with the limited fabric area.

“I’m sorry for polluting you with Aria!”

As soon as the disaster occurred, with all the moisture on the lower body falling to the ground, Ariasviel hurriedly ran into the bathroom.

＜…No matter how much I have nothing to call honor…＞

Black Aria despised her other self with an exciting feeling.

The fact that the water that fell on the floor was not pure bath water was a secret known only to the being ‘Ariaspil’.

Even Black Arya had no right to curse.

That’s what self-hatred was all about.

* * *

“…Wow…It’s really overwhelming…”

Leonardo enters the bathhouse and sighs slightly. I wasn’t angry because of Aria, but it was true that I felt ‘angry’.

‘… It was okay in the first session… But now that I’m younger… Really…’

I was training all day and night to control the swelling of blood pressure in the lower abdomen, so although it was helpful in a way, it also caused more fatigue.

＜…Is it big because of you? Do you know?＞

Leo spoke as an Auror while holding the holy sword he had secretly stored in the bathroom. As it applied the same principle as the Philosopher’s Stone, he was able to transmit his voice without being detected only by the Holy Sword.

＜…＞

The black Ariasviel within the Holy Sword still has no answer. If you look at actions or reactions, it is never clear that words are not conveyed.

On the contrary, it was reacting so dynamically that it clearly showed that Black Arya’s ego clearly existed.

Even though Black Aria and White Aria’s souls are essentially the same, the lives they lived and her attitude toward Were different, even if only because of her age.

＜…＞

There are two possible reasons for not being able to answer.

One is that Leo’s suitability as a hero is lower than that of Ariasviel, so he cannot hear his voice directly.

Since the Holy Sword contains Aria’s soul from the first round in the first place, this possibility cannot be completely ruled out.

‘…But considering that you don’t necessarily have to give the answer in words…’

Another likely reason is that Black Aria herself is refusing to talk.

When I think of the fact that even during my days as an executive knight, we only exchanged signals by the number of times we closed our eyelids without having to speak.

It is almost an excuse to say that one cannot communicate due to low resonance ability.

“Honestly, it’s not too much…”

Leo sighed bitterly and held up the holy sword.

Obviously, the first reunion with Black Aria happened more than half a century ago, so it was normal for there to be at least a little bit of awkwardness or a sense of heterogeneity.

‘…But I knew it as soon as I saw it.’

Even if you misunderstood him as Ruben, you could tell at a glance that he was Ariaspil, even though there were some strange changes.

From Noble mtl dot com

She was familiar enough to recognize at a glance even when it was Raynald that she thought it was thanks to the time she spent with Aria Baek.

‘…I was used to it.’

Even in the first episode, there were many times when I felt like Aria was by my side.

When I was under her mental control or when I faced an enemy that I could not defeat until I was on the verge of death, I somehow felt like I had met Aria.

She thought it was because of her madness, and other people also thought the same, so she did not have much doubt.

‘…I can be sure now.’

That wasn’t a coincidence.

This could not have been a coincidence, given that the qualifications of a warrior were at least half a penny.

‘…Originally, it would have been right to get Baek Aria’s permission, but…’

Due to the sudden behavior of Black Aria in her holy sword, the premise of naturally bringing up the story of her analysis by suggesting mixed bathing was broken.

Of course, the main idea of having a conversation with Black Arya in the Holy Sword.

The selfish intention of going into the bathtub together for the sake of mutual harmony… It was a situation where personal motives could also be satisfied.

‘…We’ve finally taken a step towards understanding each other, so there’s no need to waste time explaining things.’

She said that Black Aria went out of her way to heal her body, but if she gives her the space to think of that as an interference, she will lose whatever sense of cooperation she had.

Although she doesn’t know about Black Aria, she doesn’t think she did anything wrong with White Aria.

It’s not like putting her real body in the first place, but putting her holy sword that imprisons her into her bathtub soaked with her holy blood, so what’s the point?

‘…This isn’t the only thing that needs to be checked in the first place.’

What she wanted to hear from Black Aria was how she defeated the Demon King.

The method of attacking the Demon Lord that even Lumine and Eileen could not properly explain in the first episode.

No matter how much information I gathered, I couldn’t find out anything other than that they were talking so fast that no one could see them and headed beyond the gate.

‘…No, that’s not it either.’

The devil’s side was able to be slightly recognized through connection. It was simply an ability that could not be understood through common sense, so I wanted to ask for confirmation.

‘…If that makes sense…’

If such a being can materialize all abilities, he has absolutely no right to curse Reinhardt and all the humans on the battlefield.

It’s like an ant standing up against a human for the sake of its kind, and I can’t do anything that would dishonor the task of winning.

‘…More than anything…’

I had a feeling that I wanted to somehow ask Ariasviel in the first episode.

“If you have a conscience, please be obedient. “It’s not the first time we’ve showered in blood together.”

Is it because they tried to put the blade in the bathtub of blood?

Is it because I brought up old memories?

The holy sword holding Black Arya was trembling slightly.

Leo slowly put the holy sword into the bathtub containing his own blood, perhaps because he had a shred of conscience for not resisting.

What is being activated is the Holy Blood Fighting Art, which will use life-containing blood and divinity to break through the security inside the Holy Sword and infiltrate it.

It would have been impossible with the Holy Blood Fighting technique from the first round, but there was definitely a possibility of entering it if combined with the elaborate magic technique and arrangement obtained from the second round.

＜……!＞

‘…There is a reaction…!’

For some reason, I hear a voice and feel like my mind is clearing. Clearly, Ariasviel met him in the first episode as well.

Even though he must have died, for some reason, an outline slowly emerges in my memory.

Obviously this is…

‘…Keuuu…’

I feel dizzy.

Like a dream created by drugs, the feeling of losing one’s reason as one conquers drugs in order to become invulnerable to poison and poison creeps into one’s head.

Rather, this type of attack is more difficult for you than the painful mental attack.

While implementing the magic formula to unlock the lock, if you become distracted and calculate the numbers incorrectly, you will be thrown out.

‘…This is coming out very harshly.’

Rather, the fighting spirit burns.

Looking down on people is still the same. Do you think you’ll give up just because of something like this?

Focus entirely on the holy sword.

Enter.

Focus your magic only on that concept.

Inserting a magic process.

By inserting, we pry open the world of imagination.

Put it in.

“Now… Let me put it in…!”

“…Leo…?!”

Without even noticing that the bathroom door was open, Ariasviel, dressed in white, opened the door wide and came in.

Wearing military-grade waterproof underwear for both top and bottom temporarily caught Leo’s attention.

“…What are you doing…?”

Ariasviel gave the question away with an honorific expression.

The bathtub is full of blood, and his lover Leonardo is concentrating on submerging the Holy Sword in the bathtub, even taking off the towel.

And above all, the evidence that turned this guess into certainty was clearly coming to my mind.

A black light turns on in Aria Baek’s eyes. What she had no right to be jealous of was strictly limited to Leo.

The reason you don’t feel the same sensations in your body as before is probably because you are enjoying ‘that kind of entertainment alone with Leo.’

“…Ah…Aria…! “I think there’s some kind of misunderstanding…”

“What?”

“…So this is Aria’s name on the holy sword…”

“I heard it’s okay. You didn’t do anything wrong. I was old enough to do that. “If you think about it, it’s natural.”

It seems like a benevolent expression, but for some reason, I feel an unknown fear.

A feeling of intimidation that can be compared to the fear of discovering the information about spatial and temporal domination and control among the Demon King’s abilities.

“Of course I have to keep doing what I was doing. “Because that’s possible, shouldn’t I help you right in front of me?”

“…Uh…Really? “For understanding…”

Eventually, she felt Aria’s warm touch, and her entire body reacted more sensitively than when it had been pickled by lightning magic.

“…Huh…What are you doing…”

“They say you can do whatever you were doing. I’m washing every inch of her sword’s hilt with Leo’s warm blood. “It also serves as a bath.”

It was true, but that wasn’t the essential purpose.

Before focusing on anything like that.

“It was hard for Leo too, so he should wash every corner, right? Take it easy. “I’ll wash you.”

Aria’s soft touch slowly sweeps down Leo’s body.

Her divine power was already disorganized and depleted.

What she meant was that her lower abdomen could no longer be pressed down with s*x blood fighting techniques.

＜…That…Huh…What…Kwaa…＞

For your information, Black Aria was just maintaining her defense, showing off her fatigue and even some pain.

It was true that she enjoyed it and endured it as her partner was Leo, but she felt unfair anyway.

There really is a situation.

Baek Aria was only interested in other matters.
