Trouble

The towns Nazarick had defended now were under their command, a conquest that Tanya noticed was secretly made and effective. After all, you would listen to a country that wishes to help and protect you than one that places you in midst of war all the time. Well, she didn't have much to worry about, Meiyo and Nazarick didn't seem to want to sabotage her. Plus, she had heard what the black-haired girl had said and it filled her with joy. There was nobody better than someone like her to be her lover.

Now they were on their way to where the filolial lived. Fitoria had brought her own to take them, and well, she hadn't imagined these would be faster than the trucks used for the military expeditions. Much less that they could manage almost the same weight. They ran as fast as they could until they reached some ruins. Being a queen, Tanya would've thought that the blue-haired girl would have something prettier or decent. Yet, she decided against saying anything as they all got down and prepared for camp, the big birds, filolial, helped them with some things, like pulling on the ropes, keeping things steady, etc. That, and the nurses made the process faster. Tanya smiled when she saw Fitoria helped Visha down from her filolial.

They looked happy, they had hit it off very fast, Tanya supposed it was because they were soulmates. Though it hadn't been as fast with Meiyo, something similar still happened. When the time came, Tanya, Viktoriya, Meiyo, and Fitoria all went to where they were supposed to meet Naofumi.

"Do you know anything about this?"

"Naofumi must be attacking something. Right now we are gonna rescue him" Answered Meiyo hugging her back. They had decided to come in one filolial, well, Fitoria asked for that.

"He always gets into shit"

"It's his job"

It was also asked for them not to fly no matter what, Tanya obeyed orders as they ran through the fog. Her filolial stopped, there was a thing with a similar structure to them, though it looked like a monster as if it was someone with harlequin ichthyosis but in coal black. She also saw Naofumi and his team with a blue-haired girl dressed in Lolita style. Those twin tails decorated with big bows... Tanya then recognized her, the crown princess of Melomarc. If she recalled correctly, the oldest princess tried to murder her, she congratulated the hero internally for saving her and helping his own reputation with that.

"Filolial?" she heard Melty Q Melomarc say.

"What the hell?" Naofumi seemed surprised as well, Tanya couldn't really blame him. "Fuck..."

She saw him activate his shield, suddenly a bunch of red symbols appeared. The series of Ira, the powers of wrath. And it seemed only she and he could see it.

"Everything he has available, you can do with whatever weapon. Contrary to him, you do not suffer repercussions"

"Thank you princess" said Tanya to Meiyo. Her ability to study others could become stronger if they activated something related or similar to the seven deadly sins Tanya had control over.

"Seal that power" said Fitoria in her head. "He shouldn't depend on it"

Tanya nodded, allowing Fitoria to guide her in how to do it, the blonde was able to seal the shields of Ira.

"Who are you!?" It seemed Naofumi wasn't happy about the intervention, and it was good he couldn't see anyone, only the filolial heads.

Fitoria made a show out of her being a gigantic bird and jumping towards the enemy. Tanya would've done the same if she could transform like that and show off in front of her soulmate. She didn't pay much attention to their conversation, but what she roughly understood was that thing had a piece of the dragon emperor and was being rejected. This also had made it gigantic.
