沙卡美在洞穴裏修煉了很長時間，從來也不覺得餓或者渴。若然不趕快練成明鏡的境界，曼賈就會殺死她愛的所有人。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVeHpVqhsQ

「哈！哈！」她站在池裏不停向瀑布揮刀，水比冰更冷，卻澆不熄她的鬥志。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR3BHKpCaf
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkxqza02HC
既然母親每天揮一千下刀，為了超越母親，她要每天揮二千，甚至三千下刀。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjZyUsdgP9
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1FGV4r5Oh
她堅信追尋之物就在努力盡頭。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJ0Ywg2IgB
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl68E3bGLb4
受多少苦也不要緊，她不受苦的話其他人就會受苦。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQWZ7qsgtn
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QAGcxZnrW
「哈！哈！」在無盡的揮刀過程裏，她的思緒漸漸飄向遠方。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpUSHbIJNh
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k07WeP9vZ
保護一切或捨棄一切才能達至明鏡的境界？人總會失去些事物吧？她失去了賴鐸，失去了利華特，她保護不了他們。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuiEK5n8io
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwM1M6H4UM
母親有達到明鏡的境界嗎？母親捨棄了她和在帝國的一切，算滿足條件嗎？散播悲傷的明鏡是明鏡嗎？大概不是。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1GEuJvUsp
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19ZXW2OXyd
那張紙僅是謎面，她要領悟明鏡的真諦。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcVkRO24ua
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dkkcna5EB
另一邊廂，岡原、小娜和貝吏刻唐等人來到沙卡美所在的房間前。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V9yIR5jmv
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvww5a01dY
「如果陛下清醒的話就幫她戴面具，如果昏迷的話就帶她出去再治療她，清楚嗎？」岡原問手拿著面具的小娜。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOlqMrta9G
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvfwanIHQI
「嗯。」小娜點頭。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbO4mr9xOv
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb02Jv9a3NN
「好。各位，準備好了嗎？」岡原對牆壁伸出手掌。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIziLXVqmLw
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgG2zkLSnqy
「準備好了。」「準備好了。」「準備好了。」貝吏刻唐和魔法部隊成員一同瞄準牆壁。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsstfTxk5ki
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFboBplOjg6
「鮮物都・加瓦治！」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofmAxT4cEr
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7Lmx8A1ZI
咒語擊中牆壁，牆堅隨即化為一團灰塵。眾人精準控制過咒語有效範圍，使咒語只消除房間的牆壁320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4DsSylNkV
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gzMSR7Q19
鐵門因為牆壁消失而倒下，他們看到沙卡美正坐在椅子上。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEjkupZQyY
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nR0K553lh
「沙卡美！」小娜上前檢查她的狀況，「她昏倒了！」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGvdeP96Di
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WPuuThuxh
小娜抱起沙卡美，運起魔力離開基地，其他人亦隨她回到地面。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNsEYEKYDb
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dlv8BQEXz
「沙卡美！醒醒！」小娜檢查她的呼吸，隨後聽見她在「呼呼」地小聲叫。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMjXlqmxLY
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvCvzzHC7t
「小娜！陛下狀況怎麼了？」貝吏刻唐走到旁邊問小娜。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiKffQFL7U
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ewa8Mb4Fn
「她在睡覺。」發現白擔心一場的小娜向貝吏刻唐露出無奈的表情。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhStxkjCBG
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pWE19injo
「睡、睡覺？」貝吏刻唐不太相信。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAgC2wMNhH
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt8qiI7MuV
「桌上有個碎掉的水晶球。我猜可能是他們想用它來操控沙卡美，但沙卡美毀了水晶球。」小娜脫下防毒面具，「她一定累透了，給點時間她休息吧。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtYVhQ2oJL
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZCKvlbKeT
貝吏刻唐脫下面具，「我們要想辦法回皇宮。這可是另一個大陸的最西邊，又沒有紅圈......」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwjxa8ZIBl
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVXHKtwopu
「回去也要好幾個星期，我們身上又沒有錢......」小娜嘆了一口氣，「不過哥對打獵相當熟悉，所以我不怕。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zE7rhWmR6
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ157NiVpJis
在學習魔法的數十年裏，貝吏刻唐經常背著小娜在森林裏打獵，小娜就在籃子內欣賞他的英姿。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2Qov5nwSF
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DzJ1tqbwo
「各位！」貝吏刻唐呼叫在草原上看星的魔法部隊成員和岡原，「不如我們先去找些食物吧！」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcZmRdpxgB
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYmlDvEO8M
「那邊有森林。」小娜用天文學知識得出方位，指著東邊的森林說：「而且還在東邊，我們在森林裏打獵，休息一晚，到早上就馬不停蹄——人不停足地趕路。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc6o7d6td7
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61wl09H35r
「贊成！」「贊成！」魔法部隊成員紛紛舉手支持。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmorfmwh5qQ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bhjFreKcK
小娜背起沙卡美，跟其他人慢步前往森林。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAj05LEvaq
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk72OYtN4z
「沙卡美，相信我們，沒有妳我們也不會輕言放棄。」
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCCTIxpemw
說來神奇，沙卡美遺傳了壞人的優點和好人的缺點。她如賴鐸強悍卻不如他暴戾，如巫女擇善固執卻不如她處變不驚。擇善固執不一定指缺點，但從她的情況看，一旦錯了方向便很危險。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV53b0xTfjq
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdILT8oij4
明鏡到底會帶她去哪裏？掌握了明鏡她就能殺死曼賈嗎？320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN5d7efzKK
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXcH38raSr
她離失控僅有一步之遙，每當看到刀上的黑色火焰就不斷自責。她深信力量該用來保護而非傷害人，卻經已好幾次傷害了人。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aG2gcfnnW
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i6ZZnHFxA
從無到有，從紅到藍，從藍到金的火焰象徵著何物？金色火焰代表她的戰意燃燒到最高點嗎？320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7tTAopjp7
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiSw27tvS4
她對那把武士刀一無所知，連它的名字也不知道。無知的她就算進入明鏡境界也是會輸。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyQzeynKf2
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdfY7FWTTB
她煞停揮刀的雙手，走到池邊放下刀，用之前突然冒出來，放在石上的毛巾抹頭。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFnFS3kf22
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4QLsJwEmk
頭和臉都抹乾淨，她拿起刀盯著滿佈水珠的刀身。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnsrbBlkMU
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RJ8Qb4BXG
「刀......有兩把。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpq9QGRoiu
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GBSDTeyjC
她忽然想起那把一直被遺忘，自開始揮刀後就被放在石頭邊的脇差。她撿起它，手執兩把刀的她很迷惘。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7PjiSDvs3
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67g8VMw28M
「我一定對你有期望才會叫你出來......」她舉高握脇差的左手抬頭，「告訴我，你想我做甚麼？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSq9IMOmjUu
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LTHoqF8Ul
脇差和武士刀冒出紅色火焰，一塊巨石出現在她面前。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3jvyrYdAQ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n9D49ira1
她放下手，對兩把刀說：「我明白了。我試試看。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpb1uIVGuZ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5iSqN61th
她跑向巨石，跳起劈向巨石，「哈啊啊啊啊！」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfbsjMZGnS
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28KxYdlYw2
巨石被劈成三部份，她望向武士刀，留意到刀身在發紅光。以往刀身不會發光，最多只會被火焰纏繞。她望向脇差，也是同樣狀況。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjeMwjYPyu
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVYC23FV3y
沒必要走上和母親一樣的路，她要開拓出屬於她的路。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK0XbktujZ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW8xKi7j4H
紅光蔓延到她手掌、手腕、手臂、肩膀、身軀、雙腿和頭，她整個人都在發光。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDccsiXETfB
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzOtzhC6WJ
她正對其中一條石柱，身體微微傾前。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYddx7MIsKN
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXVKmcj0z9
「啊！」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1UvEMe4L3
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotPkLj4Uou
她向前想兩刀劈斷石柱，卻承受不到速度之快而在石柱前摔倒。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsww4ou6Ku2
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXf6D5SAivF
情況就像背著重物絆倒，想向後拉自己起來卻被重物壓下去。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7m5VGcrJDw
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41QxUdnVTU
「痛痛痛......」雙刀和身體的紅光消失，火焰也熄滅，她放下雙刀靠著石柱坐下。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNeMHZcNnP
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLNuxBntIg
「希靈格・利卡巴。」她治好擦損的雙手，嘆了口氣。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NzJ4KyUJk
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdf2hywpU1
「我果然還是不夠成熟。明明大家都在等我，我卻讓他們失望......我該怎麼辦......」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmquRpxK6QV
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN41v4moG1q
她抱膝，頭貼在手上當枕頭休息。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN0CHYdoHH
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH9oihGIW2
「明鏡......拾棄一切......保護一切......我......」她找不到謎題的解答。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm059Ndcq90
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdXTg5DdhX
在全身都閃著紅光時，她以為終於領悟到要訣，怎料只領悟到殘酷的現實。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTQktqv2V9
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPcOxoCPvT
要找到欠缺的東西，便先要明白自己欠缺了甚麼。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAtrdTlZEK
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAtYmYj8be
「我到底需要甚麼？沒有人會教我，只有我才想到。」她望終有一天會開竅，「我是不是早就知道但不願面對？到底是怎樣？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2alu1rztT
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd001bMrnQ
很痛苦。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiohD66gjF9
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2dhrq3SfI
「哪條才是正確的路？沒有——」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZKFENEw3l
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhB9UXhu0Y
她腦海一片空白，那些抱怨的句子彷彿沒存在過。她拿起雙刀回到瀑布，又再揮刀。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ3EgTlGyE
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoEVKMXk2n
謎底根本不重要，解開謎底並不是終點，是其中一個里程碑。既然如此，她做她認為正確的事就足夠。
