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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyYGaQJrD6

「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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6cw375Oho
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFT9xIE9WyS
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWKZffdXl1
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgogNaFgUZ
她堅信追尋之物就在努力盡頭。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3D8U3nLQj

受多少苦也不要緊，她不受苦的話其他人就會受苦。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0saIXCxBz
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdTXykr9o4
「哈！哈！」在無盡的揮刀過程裏，她的思緒漸漸飄向遠方。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkNMqd7gj8
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yNTurj4GI
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQokNMgnWt
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMi3yPB31FA
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDZNWJc15Q
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHByjC5OnB
那張紙僅是謎面，她要領悟明鏡的真諦。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwaWYCQDXO

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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizxlwlAo3z
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGWsyDxFHn
「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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWRnbcKW3v
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycB5gyUsT3
「嗯。」小娜點頭。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtkR75uSPg
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63OOndlV1f
「好。各位，準備好了嗎？」岡原對牆壁伸出手掌。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhSeeA0Lyh
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkaIGx8POL
「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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSEo1Kr7OH
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oml4ZtVXu
「鮮物都・加瓦治！」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfcPApPrmE
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Iy0uZdOGb
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330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3FjkE9eDc
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYnriTVMiO
鐵門因為牆壁消失而倒下，他們看到沙卡美正坐在椅子上。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwxopE4M8I
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjCDTcsRGf
「沙卡美！」小娜上前檢查她的狀況，「她昏倒了！」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSwOKxq5C6
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsrCwWDFdF
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog5xnEURM9
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeIJcrEir7
「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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34e8ff7qRc
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlio6eAOQH
「小娜！陛下狀況怎麼了？」貝吏刻唐走到旁邊問小娜。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3SEJomEwM
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO5lIIHJBL
「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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXKw48wLGY
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1w7Ra7wqz
「睡、睡覺？」貝吏刻唐不太相信。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAVmlVLeZD
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZEqYDxwfr
「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。」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNBN1kEJMC
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ5hDOpO7t
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......」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuGBBZuQG1
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEzZufN3ga
「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。」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhPXQBHAJx
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOQEE5FHAb
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5E7VZadVlI
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAM5OxsPRR
「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！」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24x6pi7v01
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZam4YH8Ow
「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。」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYDwYHsed1
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatXZfSVbNo
「贊成！」「贊成！」魔法部隊成員紛紛舉手支持。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG5vAgFqpf
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoB1HQSfAs
小娜背起沙卡美，跟其他人慢步前往森林。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hNaAtwoEP
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSiNEeemtw
「沙卡美，相信我們，沒有妳我們也不會輕言放棄。」
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPgPWwOacu
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TFckOfN0p

明鏡到底會帶她去哪裏？掌握了明鏡她就能殺死曼賈嗎？330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDtK6IMlZM
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3UyBm7Eyq
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxIRJMH9UC
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LM0yiw2Cb
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？330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wFIzd1uyt
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ccZKKguKz
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbFjsbNR0q
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntUd8Xy3uN
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtrPB3bpfD
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H4y1qixPY
頭和臉都抹乾淨，她拿起刀盯著滿佈水珠的刀身。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmr5tWR54GL
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuw1YeehklQ
「刀......有兩把。」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79jzMYSQdw
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvmQ8ggpUc
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPx2paYY9y
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hhdAnUKGn
「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？」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFclkUH9o88
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LchvO4lO7
脇差和武士刀冒出紅色火焰，一塊巨石出現在她面前。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0RJP5cdkd
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7N3KjYKGB
她放下手，對兩把刀說：「我明白了。我試試看。」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpjAPF4kpM
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcH8smXVOa
她跑向巨石，跳起劈向巨石，「哈啊啊啊啊！」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQeD3dw7nQ
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmRQKKrJ2s
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmW29f7Tc9
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EzxKg8oUA
沒必要走上和母親一樣的路，她要開拓出屬於她的路。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCCijfEFo8
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGiYMbLzrc
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0MHNVyl2E
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEWwspiBfj
她正對其中一條石柱，身體微微傾前。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qBecho7o5
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM2LD2suZc
「啊！」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIQCn7p2qa
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXScFPUzXj
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FdEYonsjA
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspAI9PTEWs
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz87zowGAT
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJzgIc8TEI
「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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhdYSo8qJv
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0e9tan6co
「希靈格・利卡巴。」她治好擦損的雙手，嘆了口氣。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgReZdhOKj
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumVqAhRP4Y
「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......」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrhnyQjovN
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUepwLKXGU
她抱膝，頭貼在手上當枕頭休息。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGc9OA4Ifp
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YwBEqZKcJ
「明鏡......拾棄一切......保護一切......我......」她找不到謎題的解答。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3xXrSuGQo
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGSPqiWwxE
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYQVd5rXbS
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbAbo731c9
要找到欠缺的東西，便先要明白自己欠缺了甚麼。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFC1qHf7Sp
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJUFSBSHfy
「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？」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ914Ui0x2qT
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSgapWLTVH
很痛苦。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC3fNg72oy
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68KbKKAagk
「哪條才是正確的路？沒有——」330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMkZPdCdIG
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg0s2bNasW
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。330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjgw4U2iUW
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dLQKYJ9EI
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。
