Thanks for the invitation. I'm in Type-Moon, inheriting the legacy of Zi-O.

Emerald green bullets flew continuously from Kiva's emerald green fingers.

"...!" Nian Zhuo flipped the blade in his hand toward the green bullet at the front.

Although it's tricky, it's not something that can't be cut.

The emerald green bullet was sliced ​​horizontally, and the two large orange pills were flipped up and down in Nian Zhuo's hands.

However, some bullets still struck Nianzhuo's body.

"Thud—" The bullet struck Nian Zhuo in the abdomen, causing his body, which was wielding the blade, to suddenly stop.

This was only the amount that the alien Kiva had released for a few seconds. Looking at the lush green light on the other party's fingers, Nian Zhuo was quite certain that the other party still had power left.

"Don't look down on me!" Nero, who had been pushed away, was so angry that his ahoge stood on end, and the primordial fire slashed a blade of fire through the air.

"I've already said... I'm about to evolve into the ultimate life form! How could mere human attacks possibly hurt me?" Without dodging or avoiding, the alien Kiva even moved closer, its fire blade striking the purple armor on his chest.

The flames vanished into thin air without leaving a trace.

"Kneel down—" Kiva snapped his fingers in front of him as three pairs of bat-like, blood-red wings unfurled behind him.

Accompanying it were tiny, blood-red bats that kept flying out from its wings.

The sheer number of them was overwhelming, but Nian Zhuo, who had faced them head-on, knew all too well just how threatening these tiny bats were.

Turning the driver at his waist, Nian Zhuo's two large orange scepters were gradually enveloped in orange magic.

“Finish Time—” “But I wonder whose ‘end’ moment it will be…” Nianzhuo muttered softly.

"Squash Time Break!"

Two large orange-colored shards unleashed a magical orange slash that hurtled forward.

The two slashes shattered the blood-red bats that collided with the strikes, but although they reduced the number of bats, the sheer number of bats far exceeded Nian Zhuo's expectations.

The two slashes plunged into the swarm of bats and disappeared from sight.

Like two streams dripping into a blood-red ocean.

"...Is it over?" Even Nian Zhuo felt somewhat powerless at this desperate scene.

The large orange pill in my hand was so big that I couldn't even squeeze it tightly.

“…I’m exhausted.” After saying this, Nian Zhuo was once again engulfed by blood-red bats.

"Ugh...!" The flames on the Primal Flame in his hand burned fiercely. Nero continued to swing his blade, clearing away the bats in front of him.

His clothes were torn, and he didn't even know where the round shield in his hand had fallen. His body was constantly burning with pain.

"Am I... really going to fail like this?" Nero looked around as her strength rapidly drained away.

His vision was filled with swarming bats; he couldn't see Nen-chou, Mash, Ritsuka, or his soldiers. He couldn't see any of them.

"Clearly, I still wanted to invite him to dance with me... Yu, the performer." Wanting to give up, Nero felt everything in front of her becoming blurry. "Yu... did you cry?"

"Your Majesty Nero! Are you alright?!" A familiar female voice rang out, and a purple-haired figure suddenly rushed out from beside him, blocking his way.

"Mash...?!" Who else could it be but the purple-haired girl who held up her shield in front of Nero.

"Your Majesty Nero...! Are you alright?" Ritsuka, who had arrived late, ran up to her, panting heavily.

"You two...?" "Need I say more? Of course, I'm worried about you." Ritsuka's face was full of energy, and even in this critical moment, she remained very optimistic.

"Speaking of which, where is Mr. Nianzhuo...?" Looking around, there was no sign of the person who had given everyone hope.

"I don't know, Nian Zhuoqing might have gotten separated from us." Not wanting to talk more, Nero looked around at the blood-red bats flying by, while in front of her was the bat that was blocked by Mash's shield, constantly struggling and throbbing.

"Ah, didn't I say so?" The alien Kiva, seemingly unfazed, appeared completely at ease from behind the blood-red bats. "These bats can explode, you know?"

"Huh...?" Ritsuka was taken aback when she heard this, then realized Kiva's intention. "Everyone! Quickly protect your vital parts!"

The surrounding crimson bats suddenly changed their attack, gathering in front of Mashu's shield to form a crimson bat sphere.

Then, light began to spread from within.

All the way to the outermost part, the giant bat sphere exploded instantly, and the huge impact and loud noise scattered the three people who had gathered together.

"————!" A violent explosion swept through the palace.

The strong winds whipped up the already uneven ground, sending pebbles and tattered carpet flying in all directions.

With just a flick of his finger, the debris in front of Kiva, the alien, seemed to be blocked by something, spreading outwards.

When the smoke cleared, not a single enemy remained standing.

The orange-haired girl, along with her purple-haired demi-servant, had both fallen unconscious.

However, judging from the blood flowing from their backs and hands, it seems they are unable to fight.

As for his respected 'King', his armor had been removed, and the watch face had fallen to the ground.

Unable to even maintain its basic form, Nian Zhuo's not-so-strong body lay silently on the ground.

As for that blonde troublesome woman... um?

Kiva, the oddball, suddenly grinned in surprise.

He was still kneeling on the ground; hadn't he fainted?

As for the broken round shield beside her, it seems she used it to shield herself when she was blown away.

You seem to be in luck, but unfortunately, with your arms trembling uncontrollably, you no longer have the chance to continue fighting.

"...I've checked, Your Majesty." With a chuckle, the alien Kiva rose from the throne.

He walked towards Nianzhuo, who was lying silently on the ground.

Dance for You

"Wait a minute..." Nero, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head while leaning on his sword.

Blood kept flowing from her head, dripping onto the ground.

The bright red dress turned a deeper red, and the sword blade was also coated with a deep red hue.

"Hmph—? So you haven't lost consciousness yet." Kiva stopped in her tracks and turned to Nero, who was kneeling. "I'll stand here and not move. Struggle all you want, you weak human woman..."

"You don't need to tell me... I will fight to the very end." Even though his hand holding the hilt of his sword was trembling, Nero still refused to admit defeat.

He shook his disheveled blond hair, which was wet and must have been stained with his own blood.

"Really, I thought this scene would happen when fighting against the God Ancestor..." Nero wiped his eyes and forced himself to stand up unsteadily. "But... this is truly despairing."

Mashu and Ritsuka have lost consciousness. Judging from their injuries, even if they aren't unconscious, they wouldn't have much fighting power left...

As for the turbidity... it's impossible to tell.

"...Is he unconscious, or is he just too weak?" Because of the great distance, Nero couldn't sense Nianzhuo's current condition at all.

"But...as long as I can still fight." His trembling hand gripped the blade tightly. "Rome! It's right here, so I will never back down!"

"...Hmph, woman. Not bad." Kiva, the Otherworldly being, waved his hand dismissively, ignoring Nero's hostility. Instead, he pointed at Nianzhuo lying nearby. "However, my only target is him, so if you don't get in my way, I might spare your life and those two women's. How about it? A good deal, isn't it?" With that, Kiva returned to the reclining Nianzhuo.

The sword energy, burning with flames, suddenly flew past him, leaving a huge scorch mark on the wall not far away.

"...What do you mean?" Kiva, the Otherworldly One, glanced sideways at Nero, who was panting heavily after unleashing her attack. Her tone was now tinged with murderous intent. "Woman, don't think I have a good temper. Or perhaps you don't understand what I'm saying? Are you looking for death?"

"Hmph... That guy is my guest, my friend, and my scheduled performer! Although I haven't told him yet." Nero shouted the first few sentences loudly at the alien Kiva, but the last sentence was just a soft muttering from Nero.

"Huh? A musician? What's that?" Wiping his hands, Kiva, the alien, looked at Nero with growing hostility. "Rather than saying, don't bother me, you weakling."

"Ugh...!" Nero felt a throbbing pain in her body again, but she was actually glad that her golden hair was hanging down as bangs to hide her pained expression. "You're all talk and no action, huh? Why don't you actually do anything...? Could it be that monsters are bound by some kind of restriction that prevents them from killing women? No way, no way?"

"...Hmph. I have to admit, you humans really do have an advantage when it comes to mouths." Taking a deep breath, Kiva's left hand gripped a blue military knife. "So, you've angered me, woman."

The next moment, a dim blue light shot towards Nero's neck, as if to pierce her.

"Clang—" To Kiva's surprise, Nero actually caught the blade that should have pierced her completely.

"Ugh—!" The broken blade of the saber clashed with the greatsword in his hand, and he had already used all his strength just to block Nero.

"Hmm~ Not bad. Since you can still hold them off, I admire you, woman." Nero looked at the approaching Another Knight Kiva with one step, but was powerless to do anything about it.

"For example, I'll let you be killed by my own hands." Taking two steps, the alien Kiva seemed to already see what it would be like to see Nero's head burst open in his hands, and his tone even carried a hint of anticipation.

"Although our king has commanded us not to slaughter you 'weak' lives indiscriminately, you are actually our best food, far superior to those monsters and the like." Kiva's fingernails lengthened, and he drew closer and closer to Nero.

"Now, no one can save you, little girl." Kiva said in a persuasive tone, getting closer and closer to Nero.

"Clang—" Finally, the dark blue saber was deflected by Nero's blade, and then the Primal Flame pierced straight into Kiva's eyes.

With just two fingers, Kiva easily grasped Nero's blade, her red eyes meeting Nero's emerald gaze.

"Looking at you now, you're truly disgusting." Even in the heat of battle, Nero felt a chill upon seeing the monster's face up close. "Just what kind of twisted aesthetic idiot was your creator?"

Nianzhuo, who was lying on the ground, suddenly felt his knee tremble.

“But it doesn’t matter, because—” Nero’s words trailed off, his smile revealing confidence and a clear plan.

"—Because you can't see it anymore."

"Huh?" Before Kiva could figure out what it meant, flames suddenly shot out from the sword blade he was holding with two fingers.

"Aaaaaaah!" Because of his confidence, Kiva held Nero's sword very close to his eyes when he gripped it, and the sudden attack caught him off guard.

Howling and roaring, Kiva instantly raised his leg and kicked Nero away. At the same time, he covered his eyes with both hands.

Blood streamed down his face, which he was covering, and the intense burning pain in his eyes only fueled his rage.

"You worthless scum!!!" Spreading its wings, Kiva covered its still-bleeding eyes. "Die!"

Thousands of blood-red bats flew out of Kiva's wings once more.

As if to shatter Nero to pieces, Kiva used ultrasonic waves to point directly in Nero's direction.

Countless blood-red bats flew in neat formation toward Nero.

“…Hoo.” Faced with this almost hopeless attack, Nero took a deep breath and plunged the Primal Flame into the ground.

Suddenly, a crimson magic circle spread outwards from the blade.

Nero also held a rose in his hand.

"Both the Divine Ancestor and I have said that Rome is the world."

"Now that I am here, I represent Rome!" He tossed the rose in his hand into the air.
