That time I failed as an Author and got reincarnated in Tensura

Epilogue 3: Rise and bonds

3rd Pov

If gods had their duel, heroes as well...when time and space doesn't meet, a void in reality is created.
Between those line, a world was created...rather than a world, the term « dimension » would be more appropriate.

If time and space were needed and dominated the field of importance within creation, another element distancly outshined both.

And that is Fate, the element bonding all life to give it a purpose and a sense...

Standing in front of that very hero, Mirai suddenly found herself pulled into this other space...facing her was the innocent looking child she had just witnessed earlier.

But gone was that naive and childish appearance, Yuriel Atlanta Arceid...the protagonist of an unwritten story, the young lady who defied her reality.

Mirai : (I can't sense Rimuru or Ivarage's presence, was the mountain covered in a space bending spell?)

She remained absurdly calm, having experience far worse as a warrior...her attention then naturally went down to Yuriel who was standing face to her.
A emotionless gleam decorating her eyes, in her hands were armed of a simple sword and shield.

Mirai : You must be Yuriel, we don't know each other well yet i can tell we won't get along.

Drawing out [Shin Exalia], the simple notion of being equiped of a weapon defined the hostile nature that Yuriel had toward Mirai.

Yuriel : Right...

A raspy yet eloquant voice, her appearance was idealistically what a fusion of Dawn and Luna would be.
It is so perfect that Mirai felt like this was done on purpose...to remind her of her position, of what her own relationship with Dawn was really.

Yuriel : Let us at least present ourself, my name is Yuriel Atlanta Arceid...proud heir to house Arceid and Atlanta.

Holding out her shield, she took a basic battle stance prioritizing defense.

Mirai : Mirai Averion, Ruling majesty of the land of Arcevion and duchesse of the late Averion.

At the mention of her name, Yuriel clicked her tongue and without further words...a heavenly shot detonated as she stomped onto the ground.

Appearing right before Mirai with a shield bash, she pushed her body weight forward intending for a heavy charge.

Mirai : (She is inexperienced...)

But her movements were too vast and uncertain, moved by emotion not logic...but that was to be expected from someone born in a world without evil.

Mirai : Your gaze however is the complete opposite from your reality...

She was bathing in negativity, what animated her is still unknow...but Mirai was certain that this young girl harbored that negativity solely toward her.

Yuriel : Did you enjoy all this time ? All those days ?

Mirai : What ?

Continuously defending herself, the more it went on- the more opening and way to end this duel opened to Mirai.

Still she didn't feel like winning yet...after all, she had to hear this girl's angish first.

Yuriel : Because of you...it was all about you- you ungrateful wrench !

The insult didn't brush Mirai in the good way, her gaze sharpened as she broke out of the defensive routine and instantly planted her blade into Yuriel's shield.
