".... What are you doing?"

Asked Ártemize.

"No-othing! I just want to dinner sheep today!!"

Shouted Engel as he chased a little sheep.

"Haa..."

Sighed Ártemize.

It's been a pair of months and their training in [Mind] has been quite succesfull. Of course, Ártemize and Frederica are ahead of Engel who barely gets how [Mind] works.

And right now, to relieve his stress, he's chasing a little sheep.

Indeed, it's a little, fluffy sheep that usually goes and kicks Engel's shin whenever it appears. He got tired of it and retaliated. It's been two weeks since they chase each other.

He was making strange martial arts poses that you see in low rate movies, and the little sheeps was prepared as well.

Is as if you could feel the cheap aura artound them.

"Hiyaaaaa!!!" Shouted Engel as he gave a flying kick.

"Beeeeee!!!" Cried the sheep.

*Pon!*

After the little quarrel, Ártemize took back Engel to the cabin by dragging him. He lost to the little sheep.

"Haa... I just hope we can be able to find a way to get out of here."

Muttered Ártermize. Then-

*Pin*

Something fell tim the sky and landed in Engel's face.

"Hnng.... ?? What is this?" Said Engel as he woke up and looked at what was in his face.

"[Akua's Maid Guide]?"

Frowned Engel to what the cover of the book that just landed in his face said.

Teil Zwei.

"Excuse me, Mistress Ange, but who are they?" Asked the butler.

Ange and co, as well as Lene and co. were in Mr. Cole's office trying to figure out how to beat [Nidhogg].

"I-It's hard to explain, Sebastian. Let's say tat they are people from another world that can help us with [Nidhogg]."

Explained Ange to her butler, Sebastian.

(Sebastian... Hmm... I kinda noticed it, so he's Lilya's... Oh damn so the other guy is Yozora's...)

Thought Lene while looking fromn head to toe to the two guys.

"???!!"

Then the rosen eyed guy got shocked by something and used the artifact [Wake Up Call] to contact telepathically Ange.

[Ange! Ange!]

[??? Yoru? What happened?] Asked Ange to Yoru's sudden call.

[These people... Did you already analyzed them?] Voiced Yoru.

[... Now that you mentioned it, I haven't.] Replied Ange.

[Do it! Now!] Said Yoru.

Ange sighed in her mind and tried to analyze them but-

[Eh? There is.. Interference?] Said Ange.

[Exactly! Also [Appraisal] doesn't work either! Is just too strange!] Shouted Yoru.

[True. I hadn't thought about it but-]

[-But it's not corteous to talk to somoene's back]

[[??!!!]]

Then suddenly a voice butted in their conversation. It was Lene's voice.

As the two looked towards her, she slightly smiled and sent a glare to them.

"You won't be able to see our realm. You're too weak. Just too weak."

Suddenly voiced Lene to what Mr. Cole noticed what happend.

"Yoru, it's discorteous to analyze our guests without permission." Said Mr. Cole.

"Alright. I'm sorry." Said Yoru quite suspicious of Lene and co.

(How keen...) Thougth Kretin while slightly glancing at Mr. Cole.

"Anyways, we need to talk about how to defeat [Nidhogg]." Butted in Mr. Cole.

"Alright. First of all, I need to know- Liam and Ange, have you ever fought seriously?" Asked Lene.

"No. We havent. For the tournament, we were in different groups and Mr. Cole also forbid us to fight among ourselves." Explained Ange.

"I see. That explains it. Also, do you know about some people called [Yotse]?" Asked Lene again.

"No. I've heard that they existed long ago but they are extinct." Said Ange, who heard from Sebastian and Yoru.

"Mmmm.... Alright." Then Lene stood silent for quite a while.

(If we didn't fight... Also I was quite curious so I aked about the [Yotse] but...)

Thenm she talked.

"Alright, I have a plan. Ange, you are going to make an scenario. "What if I have to fight Liam".

Think throughtly about it. Think about it as if your life is at stake and then give me your answer.

While you think that, I'm going to keep talking about the current assumptions of [Nidhogg]." Voiced Lene to what Ange nodded and sat in a corner of the office.

"Well then, we can tell her this later. What we think is the being called [Nidhogg] is none other that the parallel version of [Ange]. You already know what I'm talking about, so explain to those who don't."

Sebastian and Yoru were quite surprised about her words, but still waited until the end to ask about the whole picture.

"Our leader knows more about these kind of thing, but at least I can assure that this fiend is from another world, as well as the girl with him. I noticed but their [Mana] is quite lo.... I mean, it's comparable to yours, but he doesn't know how to use it. The girl with him, Liam's parallel.

Being parallels, we can consider them not only to have your same abilities, but also differences."

Explained Lene to what everyone noded.

"So, that's why you said to Ange to imagine an scenario where she fought me to death." Asked Liam.

"That's half the truth. I asked her due to the fact that It's strange how they haven't been beaten. Our leader would have toyed with him." Said Lene quite proud of Engel.

"Yeah right. Anyways, when is your "leader" coming?" Asked Liam out of the blue.

"Who knows. Maybe tomorrow, maybe in couple of years. Where he ended up, I don't know." Said Lene while shrugging.

"Finished!" Then shouted Ange.

"Okay, so tell me, what did you see?" Asked Lene.

"Hehe! The key to victory!" Shouted Ange in high spirits. That's becasue she had just unlocked the [God Eater] modo in theory.

Teil Drei.

"Hmm... Like this, like this and this?"

"Yeah. Just like that."

Engel and a woman were only in their underwear in the top of a snowy mountain.

The woman had pitch black skin with white dots and purple eyes. Even the white part of them was purple. Her hair is blue and they were working in some snowmen.

"Now, inject your [Mind] and think about the instructions of the maid guide. Try to apply them to this ocassion. You said that you knew about something simmilar, but forget about that. Focus on this." Said the woman.

"Actually, I wanted to show you this." Said Engel as he handed over some pages to the woman.

"Mmm... Mmm.... Ohh.... Ohh... This... This... OH GAWD!! This.... This is pure gold! I feel it! I smell it! I know it!! This... This.... This is... REVOLUTIOOOOOOOOONN!!!!"

Then shouted the woman.

"Ca-Calm down Radat..." Said Engel with a wry smile.

"Oh! O-Okay. Anyways, practice what I told you, I'm going to study this! And after you get the gist of Akaua's method, we'll try this [Negative Method], [Heavy Method] and [Antique Method]."

Voiced the woman named Radat.

"also you need to refine your control of [Mind] to do this. You don't have too much [Mind], so you have to reifne your control of it." Said Radat.

"Ha... True. I only have 2,000. Ártemize and Frederica have 500,000 each." Sighed Engel.

"Don't sweat it! You'll do alright! Even if that fucking sheep has a the double of your friends, it doesn't matter!" Shouted Radat.

"Eh?"

"Ah?"

(Oh Shit!)

Then she had a slip of tongue.

"Wait... You said that... You said that... That fucking sheep has 100,000 of [Mind]? How? When? How? Howhowhowhowhowhowhohwohwohwohwow?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAAAMMNN!!!!"

Shouted then Engel out of anger and started to train his [Mind] skills with the little snowmen.

Engel, after finding the [Akua's Maid Guide], someone fell from the sky to retrieve just after it fell and it was Radat. She was researching it and then Engel got interested in it and they both started to hang out quite a lot.

"Anyways, what bothers me here is this [Living Object] that the book talks about." Said Radat.

"Really? I can get the gist of it. But, does something like that exist?" Asked Engel.

"I bet. After all, I've seen one like a hundred years ago," Replied Radat.

"Are you serious? And how was it?" Asked Engel.

"Impressive. It was awesome... Actually, it was why I decided to study the maid guide." She added.

"I see. So what exactly bothers you?" Said Engel.

"Well... Here, it says that the will of the bearer is injected in it... But when I saw that [Living Object]... It was as if the bearer himself was the object. I mean... As if it was a sould attached to it." Said Radat while recalling the fight where her humanity was lost.

(I'm going to find you... [Sun Wukong's Crown]...)

The day she saw hell, was carved in her whole body.

So, to brush off those thoughts-

"Anyways, I heard from Ártemize, but you really trained Frederica into your personal sex slave?" Said Radat out of the blue.

"WHAT THE FUCK?"

Shouted Engel as he made the little snowman in his hands explode.

"Tha-That's only half true! I don't like to hurt girls if necessary, so I made adjustements here and there and well... After two weeks she ended like that."

Said Engel as he averted his eyes from Radat's gaze.

Truth is, that Engel adjusted Frederica's brain to receive pain as pleasure, as he did once with Lene, and used S&M techniques to make her submit and interrogate her.

It's not that he was fond of such fetish, but he tried to do it at least once.

He promised to himself to do it only with Shirayuki, and no one else, due to it being too strong and Shirayuki was already inside that twisted world.

(Still.. She really did became attatched to me... Wouldn't she hate me instead?)

Thought Engel as he started again with the little snowmen.

That was a bizzare question that he didn't want to answer. He pretended to not to notice the answer, because he didn't want to think of himself messing up with a girl. Even if it was a escape from reality.

He didn't want to feel proud in destroying someone's mental state like that. It was no joke at all.

(Still, it was necessary in order to calm her down... She was quite crazy back then.) He said to himslef while recalling the time she first woke up.

Teil Vier.

After Ange got the answer to finish off [Nidhogg], she teleported out of the room, to what Sebastian, Yoru followed her. With a wry expression, the others got out. At the end, Lene and co. were with Mr. Cole all alone.

"Well, that was quite the interruption. Now, can you actually tell us about the war?" Then asked Lene going straight of the point.

(Heh... Just like Liam)

Thought Mr. Cole as he started to explain.

The magic was happenned in December 1st. It was due to the many people feeling outcasted by the [Participants] of the tournament that could use magic.

A simple case of discrimination.

Then the countries that were too ambitious (specially a very greedy country that made clone of a certain someone), started the conflicts.

This country sent their participants to attack normal people, thus many riots spread from that "little" incident like wildfire.

After the riots started, there was a need to stop them. Then this was tasked to the [Participants]. It was not a pretty thing to attack normal people with magic.

Of course there were casualities from the normals that fired up even more the strifes.

With time, the venerated [Five Gods of War] took action. The most powerful beings in the world had to stop the now "rebel groups".

After the discrimination acts, people hated even more the gods and now they were like, demons.

Just in the middle of the conflict, [Nidhogg] arrived.

And then after some fights, Lene and co. appeared and it ends in the present time.

"It seems quite hard." Said Krestin.

"It is. Nothing less thant that. I have some theories about this and our world but... Haa, I wish Engel just appeared now."

Said Lene while vocing her thoughts.

Then-

"MR COLE!" Then shouted somoene while suddenly opening the door.

"Where's Ange?! I haven't seen her in a while and need to replenish my [Vitamin A]!!"

(Ugh.... I bet the A stands for Ange.... It must be-)

As Lene thought, she looked from head to toe, to the guy who had just arrived.

Long black hair in a ponytail, black eyes and a slim, atlethic body. A handsome face and strong posture.

(That is... Brunnhildr's...)

That's right- He is Siegfreid Falsch; Ange's older brother.
