Battle War; Magic, Sword and Dragon

Int: Queen Dark Side

Everyone has a different meaning of happiness.

Money is abundant and will never run out. Have a coveted partner. To have power like a king or even to be a king himself. There are many more things that depend on everyone.

For Yuina Yuuki or more often called Yui, her greatest happiness right now might be getting the heart of the person she loves.

She thought it was 'maybe' because in her heart the most deeply she realized her love for Kuro might not be the true feeling of love.

He has no blood relation with Kuro. That's why there's no reason not to love her as the opposite sex. But the two grew up together as brothers.

Is correct.

His love is not love between the opposite sex. Love as a brother. The reason why he constantly wanted to cling to Kuro was nothing more than loneliness and jealousy because Kuro was no longer by his side.

It took me a long time to realize all that. But it doesn't matter. Better late than not at all.

For now his greatest wish as a brother is to help Kuro as best as possible whether it be directly or indirectly. And of course he did not forget to find a prospective life partner later.

In the village of the Blad clan, he was often betrothed to Asura. One of the young men who was quite handsome and strong even though he was not a magician. And since Asura learned all the techniques from Kuro, he could be said to be the one most similar to Kuro in the village.

But Yui's heart was not at all interested in Asura. He only sees her as a friend. No more than that.

Of course Asura did not have no chance, just because Yui knew an abnormal figure like Kuro, the value he gave to men was quite low.

For now it takes time to find the right person he really loves with all his heart.

◼️▪️▪️▪️

After the fight in the capital, Yui felt herself so weak. He didn't even have a role in the fight.

If this continues, let alone helping Kuro. He will only be a burden.

In order to become stronger again, he had to train and search for a new source of strength.

He's got it only he can't use it. Feeling regret for his weakness, he finally decided to use that strength. The power of being chosen as Queen.

If he could use the power of a Queen, he would definitely be able to help like Charlmilia. But it's easier said than done.

To use Dragon Gear, Yui simply unites magic energy, thoughts and opens the Link on Emera. Because it was not much different from the technique of creating magic beasts with magic, this was easy to do.

But for the Dragon Valkryie Gear, Yui must make it through a stage called the Trial.

The trial was different depending on the Dragon King itself. And for Emera's case, the Trial Yui has to face is facing herself.

In a special dimension appeared the shadow of him. And he fought with that shadow.

Until now he has not managed to defeat him. And that's why he hasn't been able to use the Dragon Valkryie Gear the way he wants.

"I guess it's too early for you."

Surprisingly, Emera was not at all surprised or disappointed.

Having often faced this kind of situation, Yui was also not so disappointed. He understood that it would take longer to be able to use that power.

"Well, by the way, are there any higher ranks besides the Dragon Valkryie Gear?"

"It could be said to exist, but all this time no Queen has reached that stage."

"That's really weird. Why can't anyone do it?"

"In this world nothing is free. Getting power from us (Dragon King) might look like getting a big reward. But that doesn't mean there's no pay for that power."

Yui was silent because she had just heard something she had not expected at all.

"At the stage of Release and Unification, the power we give will exceed the limits of human body and soul. And that will make that human change so that it can't be called human anymore."

Yui was sweating coldly.

"More easily, a person who uses our powers excessively, he will turn into a dragon."

"....mdh...?"

On that day, Yui learns a dark truth about being a Queen.

◼️▪️▪️

Then having managed to get what he wanted, Yui returned to the capital to meet Kuro and the others.

Yui's goal is to keep Lic and Riku away for Battle War.

Caring for a small child was common to Yui, so she was no problem at all. Moreover, she took care of the children of Laila and Kuro. There's no way he didn't.

But this makes him feel strange. Why should he do it too? Scarlet and Lia.

She doesn't really understand, but maybe it's just because she feels better if there's a lot of people taking care of Riku.

Yui and the others live in Kuro's house in the town of Gehenna. It's not as luxurious as in the capital, but that's enough.

He takes care of Riku and Lic is accompanied by Lia and Scarlet. Though not very familiar with Laila's parents, she begins to recognize their good and bad sides.

Slowly but surely. Yui was finally able to accept them as a member of her family.

At the time of the Battle War itself, Yui and the others enjoyed from the VIP venue prepared by the emperor himself. Strange, but no reason to protest. Perhaps this was the emperor's way of treating the strongest Paladin family.

The beginning of the fight amazed Yui because Laila and Kuro used techniques that she did not expect. Both seem to have no boundaries.

It's not strange considering who the two are.

But the battle of Charlmilia and others is no less awesome and worth seeing. One thing is certain, Yui finally realized that she was still nothing compared to them.

There was only one thing that made him worry. Kuro's Doll had been cracked since the beginning of Battle War. The crack grew bigger as time went on.

I don't know why Yui felt such a bad feeling.

Then, that happened.

Kuro rescues Fila and Charlmilia from the magic that got out of control. The relationship between them got better thanks to the incident. You could even say too good.

At the moment of thinking that, suddenly his attention was diverted to Lic who was speechless observing something in the sky.

"The time has come..."

What'd he say?

Simultaneously, a huge crack occurred on Doll milk Kuro and began to disappear into light.

Yui's premonition is getting worse.

And then, Riku cried out loudly.
