After Gasper says that, he uses the chalk to draw a magic-circle with Xenovia in the centre. He draws an unfamiliar symbol and he holds the small bottle in his hand at the end. –It’s the small bottle with my blood in it. That is an item which increases Gasper’s power. [By mixing Ise-senpai’s blood with the magic-circle I just drew, I think I can uncurse it. But it seems like it will take some time for it to be removed……]
Gasper says that to Xenovia. ……..So he’s going to use my blood…..? [W-Wait Gasper. If you use that blood, you will…….] To the confused looking Xenovia, Gasper showed a big smile. [Xenovia-senpai, I found out what my duty is.] [Gasper…..?] Xenovia questions him. Gasper who has completed the magic-circle leaps out from the rocks. [I….I will buy time! Once the curse is removed, please continue to charge the Durandal!] -! Is he trying to charge ahead by himself without drinking my blood!? “It’s reckless! Gasper! Hide yourself!”
Buchou shouts, but Gasper runs forward with a determined expression. [No! I…I have to buy some time! For Buchou to win, Xenovia-senpai is needed!] Buchou shouts again. “I’m telling you run away immediately!”
-The dragon and Bael’s [Bishop] come in front of Gasper. [I’ve found you vampire. So you hid that swordswoman I see. But she’s somewhere nearby right? She will appear if I spread my flames around here.] Having the dragon approach him, Gasper's body is trembling. But he shows no signs of running away, and he made a stance to shoot demonic-power by putting his hand forward. [I…I won’t let you go berserk!] Is he trying to charge forward in order to protect Xenovia!? [Coming ahead by yourself, huh. I respect that courage of yours. Though you are shaking, you can’t stand in front of a dragon without any courage.] The dragon who gave his respect to Gasper…..breathed out a flame from his mouth! GOBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN! Gasper tries to defend it by using a defence magic-circle! Run away! It’s reckless! But Gasper continues to act as a shield for Xenovia so he can buy some time! [Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!] Gasper screams. Having the defence magic-circle destroyed, he gets pushed back by the flames. Even though he gets burned by the flames, Gasper stands up weakly. […….Not yet. I can still continue!] [Gasper! Don’t over do it!] Xenovia’s voice. [The swordswoman voice? She’s nearby? That swordswoman, where is she?] Hearing Xenovia’s voice, the dragon looks around! [Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!] Gasper spreads his devil wings, and he grabs onto the dragon’s arm. [--! Let go! Unlike you whom I can beat anytime, I have to take down the Durandal wielder immediately! That curse is temporary after all!] Gasper gets caught by the dragon’s other hand, and he gets crushed very strongly by it! A disturbing sound echoes through the field! [Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!] Gasper screams in agony. Buchou looks away from that scene. “…….Please stop!”
Asia covers her face and screams. The dragon throws down the crushed Gasper. Gasper is still trying to stand despite having intense pain to the point where he can barely breath now! Even in that situation…..he is going towards the dragon. […..It hurts….It hurts…….. But……. I’m a boy from the Gremory group……. Please hold on Xenovia-senpai…….] Xenovia doesn’t respond to Gasper’s call. She should have heard Gasper’s shout. On the vision, Xenovia killed her presence and her voice probably because she understood her junior’s determination. Her eyes are covered with her tears. [You are in the way!] Gasper gets kicked around by the dragon. Even so he doesn’t give up. [……. Gremory group’s males…….lesson 1……..a man has to protect a girl…..!] He somehow lifts his body which is trembling due to the shock and pain……and Gasper stood up. Those are the words I told Gasper back in the clubroom. […. G…Gremory group’s males…..lesson 2…..a man has to stand up……no matter what……..!] He tries to activate another magic-circle on his hand, but…. BANG! Bael’s [Bishop] carrying a staff came while being wobbly and used his staff to hit Gasper from the side. [Give up, you won’t be able to beat us.] Heartless words. Even a strike from the wobbling guy would be like a deadly attack to the current Gasper. Even after hearing that, he grabbed onto the rocks, and he tried to stand up again. [……. Gremory…..group’s…..males….lesson……3…….] Gasper faces forward with his swelled up face and he mutters to himself. [……Don’t give up…….no matter what…… …….I have to protect……Xenovia-senpai….] STOMP! A heartless attack. The dragon stomps Gasper without any mercy…. The dragon removes his foot. Gasper was already battered and squashed. He is no longer in a state where he can fight. He will be retiring soon. -! I trembled at the scene I am witnessing. …….That’s because Gasper who is in a critical situation moved his body a bit. And he tries to move from that spot. […..I am from the Gremory……. I have to……make Buchou…….win……]
Seeing that, a tear dropped down from my cheek. [Gasssssssssssper!] Xenovia’s scream echoes throughout the battlefield because she felt the shock on the earth of Gasper being stomped. -Senpai. Will I also be able to become useful for everyone? Idiot……! You idiot! Idiot! You are following through……what I told you very stubbornly….! There is no one who will call you useless after seeing you right now……! You….you are…..! You are a fine man from the Gremory group….! “……………”
Buchou faces away from the vision. I told Buchou, while not holding back my tears…..
“……Buchou, I ask you. Please look while not facing backwards. He’s fighting that hard for you while preparing for death…. Right now he is fighting harder than everyone when he was just a hikikomori and a scaredy cat before….! So please watch over him…..!”
Buchou was about to shed her tears at my argument, but she holds it in and looks forward. “I understand. I’m sorry Ise, Gasper……”
Buchou acts strong. Asia and Akeno-san are crying. Rossweisse-san also has some tears in her eyes, and Kiba is biting his lip so hard that blood is dripping from it. [You can still move, huh. That strong will towards victory. It really shocks me. Attacking anymore than this will be cruel. Very well, I will make you better with this last attack.] When the dragon was about to breathe out flames…. [--I won't let you.] Xenovia shows herself while emitting enormous aura. The holy aura running through Durandal. It’s so strong that it gives me chills. And the cursed marks on her body are gone. It seems like the removal of the curse was a success! Xenovia approached Gasper, and she held her junior who had already lost consciousness. [--You did well Gasper. You are a man. --I’m sorry, because I was worthless I made you go through this……]
Xenovia apologises to Gasper while shedding tears. [So the curse was removed!] The Bael’s [Bishop] points his staff at Xenovia. The dragon also has his wings spread. Xenovia got up quietly and mutters. [……I was lacking it.] She slides the Ex-Durandal from the sheath, and changed it to the attack-form.
