始終曆一六三四年夏，時為斯圖希安黑曆四十一代又三年，及婭基昂絲白曆五百零七年，一場圍繞始界三大國的戰爭，終於在艾斯托利克君主紐爾的宣戰下揭開序幕。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwH0L94iFhr

正式進入戰亂時代，在三大國聯合使用的魔導大學領內，各種小道消息在花海建築群之中流傳，甚至蓋過本來期末考試該有的緊張氣氛。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0U3QuaRe4

「嘖嘖！教授、學生……大家都回國當兵了，宿舍裡快要剩下我們這些不願回國的野孩子了～」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2P4UOyYsze

四處不時傳來流言蜚語，夾雜臆測在顯然變得人煙稀少的校舍裡流通。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvY0rDDKN9R

自艾斯托利克的騎士團臨時據點被斯圖希安兵圍堵後，那時僥倖脫出、避過斯圖希安軍監察竄進學校範圍的柔伊與克西便是少數仍逗留在校舍裡的學生。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMSLcIRJrn

然而，隨兩人進入校園的，還有兩位被稱為「主神」的存在，與再次迷失方向的少女。不敢輕舉妄動。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHWnarom93

房間內，克西攤手坐在沙發上，掐指算起跟隨他走進宿舍的人數，為屋裡突然多出幾個人而抱怨著。然而，當他斜眼看到旁邊低頭不語的貝塔，色心作祟下又刻意靠近她，手臂悄悄伸至她背部，壞笑著道：243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4ic3fYVX8
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPhWnnkU05
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRoJ8oLIsB
「不過沒差，反正這樣本大爺與貝塔小姐就變得更親密了。」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yZULOgGg6
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqfPimFGqo
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr9JD9NVAj
「你不要碰我！」對於旁邊克西悄然靠近，貝塔隨即對他放出一臉嫌棄，「啪」一聲賞他大記耳光，在手臂觸碰到自己之前把他整個人擊至反方向沙發邊緣。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyUJNg0is8
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSSrQNXrgZ
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcfL1omosc
而這邊廂，柔伊則稍為放開對跟前一動不動的人型機巧澤鉭全神貫注的觀察，筆頭戳在下巴思考道：243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9oMnLIZD7
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGzi4LoiQw
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7yD9nY0XW
「派恩哥哥不在了，澤鉭也明顯不是人，那這裡還是只多了貝塔姐姐一個人……啊？」說到這裡，回望正立跟前的澤鉭，柔伊才赫然發覺宿舍房裡似乎缺少了一個人……243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9W7ouZeif
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDLiHncCPK
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlaD5fd68C
「啊！是澤鉭的主人！他到哪裡了？」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiASREYrpL
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1oyEtdRdJ
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmHN2x8drJ
「訂正。我乃主神以太契約之下的守護者，並非主神以太的僕人。」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92S5InQh3R
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JISU95e0O
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHyECScOuj
察覺到柔伊話語與現實不符，澤鉭總算木訥地開口說話，使得柔伊對他那奇特語氣摸不著頭腦，只好趕忙把對方此言記錄在備忘紙上，並嘗試再對其發問：243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBVW6uE47Q
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZGJLbzYgh
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUdl0CLjs7
「抱歉……那麼你知道主神以太在哪裡嗎？」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XaN6E5XND

「此為機密資料，需要確認『權限』才能開示。」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvivYofXW2
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtdUfmbWjt
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJs7J8xCJN
此般回應，更是讓柔伊歪起頭顱，不僅不知道對方口中「權限」一詞意思為何，甚至對他整個思考回路都渾然不知，只好再舉筆在紙上擇下疑點。不知不覺地，紙上筆跡漸加密麻，同時記滿目測、行為以至思考上的觀察，只希望能早日了解澤鉭這同被稱為「主神」的存在，助她把派恩從斯圖希安人手上救出。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z4ZOGJuUD

「那目中無人的傢伙，恐怕他現在又不知在哪裡跟那些野孩子互相打嘴砲吧？哈哈！」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6OcUvDomq

克西掩著臉上被貝塔掌摑而成的大塊紅腫，膝蓋跪到沙發上，探頭望出窗外，兩目漫遊在以往人來人往的庭園裡，期待能目睹以太這目中無人的「高尚存在」與校內不良分子爭論的一幕。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknxRkF2h9l
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvKebvEGXI
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw6hoZrsGs
「以太……我只怕連他也會離我而去，僅此而已。」見柔伊和克西都分別提及以太，卻又使貝塔心生不安。起初以為繆兒能順便助她救出在斯圖希安軍事基地裡生死未卜的阿爾法，輾轉至今連作為破局曙光的繆兒，如今都被斯圖希安軍隊抓去，留下被列入追緝名單的自己和以太。來到此刻，見以太不在身邊，貝塔實在生怕他會步阿爾法後塵，成為下一個離她而去的人。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1m3EX16pC

243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQah9DrGWt
驀然回想，從前天她跟著柔伊和克西來到宿舍房開始，以太就像從沒出現過一般，消失在她的視界裡。也許以太不喜歡與這麼多人同時擠在這狹小的宿舍房裡，所以索性把自己隱藏在空氣之中，免得讓房間變得水泄不通。只是，與他訂下契約、多少能感應對方氣息的自己，卻又感覺不到當下他的氣息存在於這片空間裡。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZTlb0Wqwc

243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BWVuXKXSt
「我要出去找以太回來！」想到這裡，察覺異樣下貝塔便站立起來，往門口方向走去。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeYy4k9E1o

243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySGsXDl7YA
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmQKRC5AdG
克西正跳下沙發阻止貝塔貿然走出宿舍房之時，意識到貝塔要離開房間範圍的澤鉭突然動起身子，無視幾乎被他推到地上的柔伊，攔在大門前面無表情地說道：243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHq9t1Gdr3
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HJQOMskI8
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg7UkvFFr2
「這是主神以太的命令，妳不得走出此範圍之外。」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8FEHgaD3a
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR020IaFkh
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHNybLSKmd
「可是，你知道以太在哪裡嗎？我真的擔心他會像繆兒一樣被捉走。」貝塔著急問著，又拿出自己同為與以太立下契約的身份，加以說服：「我也跟以太立下了契約，這會不會就是你想要的『權限』？」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56y8En706H
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgmo6Ipomq
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGW03J1Rew
「即使妳同為始界主神、或是與主神以太立契，亦不代表妳擁有開示情報的『權限』。」243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7CBrkUqJj
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADyYvJh2ea
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASLqgJTKYY
「呃……換個問題，那主神以太現在安好嗎？這個應該不是什麼機密了吧？」趕忙把澤鉭攔下貝塔這個舉動筆錄下來後，柔伊亦一再來到澤鉭面前，嘗試替貝塔確認以太此刻的人身安全。243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiU4c1WPgH
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiT4Jm2LHw
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp9oyylBkW

243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nKwLCwFoq
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgpVrsMvHX
聽到澤鉭終於透露出以太仍然安然無事一情報，貝塔這下才稍為鬆一口氣，屈曲雙膝再次坐在沙發上，默默看著房內繼續醉心對澤鉭上下打量的柔伊，以及旁邊一臉悠然對著天花板放空的克西，再沒哼出半句話。
