His Question and His Answer

Holy Guard Knights?

Oh, more Phantom Soldiers!

I'll handle them! Logi, you handle the sword of Avis!

Okay!

With a dull thud, the shield in his hand flicks the sword.

There was no mercy, no warmth, no mercy in that slash, just a flash to cut down the enemy in front of him.

Avis

Logi
Oh...!

Further protection.

Alchemy deployed on Mesarthim was easily dissipated by the blow, and the weight of pure sword fight was on his arm.

Logi
Logi
This man...!

Not brilliant, not graceful, but a simple, talentless sword.

The man's sword was not one of genius.

Rather, it is the weight of the unceasing training and discipline he must have put into it, shedding blood and grinding himself to the bone, that resonates through the shield.

It is a serious sword, so serious that you can tell how much time and effort went into obtaining this blow, this masterpiece, just by receiving it.

That's why... the question of why struck my heart.

Logi
Logi
(How could a man wield such a sword?)

Why did he start the war? Why did he want to create the world?

It seemed strangely unjust to me to fight without knowing. So...

Logi
Logi
Why, why...!?
Avis
Avis

Logi
Logi
Why did you do this? Why did you get us all involved?

Creation! No one wanted this! Why did you...!?

Why are you trying to destroy the present... Avis Northern Pride...!?
Avis
Avis
What is it, Logi Crowley? Talking on the battlefield? Haha, that's quite a bit of leeway, isn't it?

A fearless voice. A look of confidence, of course, no hint of a hand on the sword in his hand, and yet...

Avis
Avis
But, yes. I'll answer you. It's really... It's really quite simple.

With sword and shield held close together, the man replied with a serious expression on his face.

Avis
Avis
I am only trying to do my "justice"!
Logi
Logi
Justice?
Avis
Avis
I want to save this world.

A world full of sin, where people mourn, and where the skin has been peeled off, and where the back is full of vice and corruption.

For this I became a knight of the Holy Guard, a Lord Commander...

Now again I have become a tyrant and disturbed the world.
Logi
Logi
I don't agree with you! If you want to save, why hurt? If you want to save, why take?

Your actions are contradictory!
Avis
Avis
That's what people are like.
Logi
Logi
That's not an answer...!
Avis
Avis
If you think so, I will do everything in my power to stop you.

Justice is always painted in a new light.
Logi
Logi
You're a selfish thing!

I turn the anger in my heart into strength and readjust my sword and shield.

I don't understand a man's point of view at all. I can't empathyze or sympathize with him.

Dias
Dias
...

With that in mind, I swing my sword. I look to see Dias, who has packed in from the opposite side, with the same look on his face as I do.

Logi
Logi
(Yes, I understand. Dias, you too are irritated with this man.)

The man was obviously misrepresenting something. The real reason. The meaning of the fight. It may be something he keeps in his heart, but...

Logi
Logi
(You said yourself that you would answer, but you can't give me that answer...!)

In a fit of frustration, he hits Dias with a full-on shield strike in time with his sword-fighting.

Logi
Logi

But the man easily ducks...

The battle was back to square one.

Still, not giving up, we stand our ground.

Again and again, believing that our friends will find a way out of this situation.
