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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHTTi0rj5Y
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYN2O8xhwR
「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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAvBqVFkvh
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjgRjXm5L8
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DC1ELBhvP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEplQ3CfW2
她堅信追尋之物就在努力盡頭。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvVt7WPs0r
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxqQ3aVsKN
受多少苦也不要緊，她不受苦的話其他人就會受苦。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPabirDlf3Z
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5V251NJzh
「哈！哈！」在無盡的揮刀過程裏，她的思緒漸漸飄向遠方。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4W3fFvYLK
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjQejdVOKd
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8ZlMOhTNP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXIRmTPQXs
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoKh58W69s
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MK0qSie19
那張紙僅是謎面，她要領悟明鏡的真諦。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS19YU1Vtoy
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLIse5Un0c
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFrNzG03hM
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mFxlVcboe
「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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtMQiOG9BQ
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRI5fFGUvE
「嗯。」小娜點頭。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPryGd5sgc
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWlRJLT8a1
「好。各位，準備好了嗎？」岡原對牆壁伸出手掌。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44QcP7wib4
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeczE440z2k
「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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvrcfXcE9Y
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxr3u7qCz0
「鮮物都・加瓦治！」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJi57ogaFz
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSeG6BBHY9
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213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68ZSEgRMja
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5uvzZSuvl
鐵門因為牆壁消失而倒下，他們看到沙卡美正坐在椅子上。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEWVR3p6KC
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0fejI1iQG
「沙卡美！」小娜上前檢查她的狀況，「她昏倒了！」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyYvzkDlRl
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIahiLvdsm
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxOuxA2cNP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq8DWiubM8
「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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUpDaBhtqq
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXQ0zY0S5K
「小娜！陛下狀況怎麼了？」貝吏刻唐走到旁邊問小娜。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zY2aOiorT
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJRdfJ3ThQ
「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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVbQL8nZct
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0oou5FDD9
「睡、睡覺？」貝吏刻唐不太相信。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkhu2NFjYS
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo9THJiEr1
「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。」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzON2G3BCYc
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAPgXvogp2
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......」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWQuE7S1JD
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ088rM0ZuiU
「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。」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uORNS2UAK
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdehFGV1z0v
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyXY766six
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRv5FDs5vK
「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！」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QToFMESyR
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORSJJPuJcA
「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。」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyjHfOhi7z
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CK1GH5Z4S
「贊成！」「贊成！」魔法部隊成員紛紛舉手支持。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu0NRxqCnr
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzTwwU3UXE
小娜背起沙卡美，跟其他人慢步前往森林。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wXhWOdUOK
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vFeKUSYyR
「沙卡美，相信我們，沒有妳我們也不會輕言放棄。」
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQrAR8AQFw
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vE56B5xRy
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmnnWZCic0
明鏡到底會帶她去哪裏？掌握了明鏡她就能殺死曼賈嗎？213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEivmvXMKK
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jAVD7JUtR
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR9kigQ6Du
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jMbz9DKSs
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？213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCrMcp6RO1
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpseAwLtGy9
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX3iuCgXQu
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvYFavxYF1
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRGnEhlLcT
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLHRtI3oGD
頭和臉都抹乾淨，她拿起刀盯著滿佈水珠的刀身。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcYMoy1ltP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87CPrBq5nd
「刀......有兩把。」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ912sK5D70g
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuGhXusttG
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qf2B0nkRr
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8CiRngwem
「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？」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXD0M0KoCy
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySUXapSBV8
脇差和武士刀冒出紅色火焰，一塊巨石出現在她面前。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr5nnXH1w5
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOkEN1JvQN
她放下手，對兩把刀說：「我明白了。我試試看。」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8akaMvSmYw
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb8FbvOhs8
她跑向巨石，跳起劈向巨石，「哈啊啊啊啊！」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUteqDFTTL
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswqF2yaW0w
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3W2KBR89t
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB4Z4d5E7m
沒必要走上和母親一樣的路，她要開拓出屬於她的路。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFLHf4iRtU
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKxALiFxwu
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i0ZdqcYn7
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zigEnoXhf
她正對其中一條石柱，身體微微傾前。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwL1PrWfO1
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3pvT1VG5R
「啊！」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhC2McOH6T
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikX9Ln0sDv
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnb8DcKbKG
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTpNcZGUKS
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYx0ec1K1M
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9oUBJ4IjN
「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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3LZfMG6Qm
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOUE8v1h6l
「希靈格・利卡巴。」她治好擦損的雙手，嘆了口氣。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqCg2RIFKO
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRWOlp7WJM
「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......」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmYNJWZV65
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjzX1VYGYw
她抱膝，頭貼在手上當枕頭休息。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3osxcz0Za
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDRWFjG2P6
「明鏡......拾棄一切......保護一切......我......」她找不到謎題的解答。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevIbaq1LRv
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdTVh1gMdu
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pnt1t2ny0
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz18Hpwid4Y
要找到欠缺的東西，便先要明白自己欠缺了甚麼。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgNX43d9Hx
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPFUHEjZWW
「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？」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojWiIj7wyT
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCyd7twf83
很痛苦。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU9VOM1t1o
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5D8GOU2gJ
「哪條才是正確的路？沒有——」213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzm2yI1bmS
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAw9HvwNzW
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。213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHMr5iw5HJ
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDprZcww2nH
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。
