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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVjVCvEh7T

「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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuhJAKkXby
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVBnopEBPI
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQYFulNpYK
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEKnIv4wnK
她堅信追尋之物就在努力盡頭。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPmANRdbP8
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjH2oc249W
受多少苦也不要緊，她不受苦的話其他人就會受苦。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOIAohfsJA
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcqy1oNzUT
「哈！哈！」在無盡的揮刀過程裏，她的思緒漸漸飄向遠方。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRQCIsVO6a
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYDGOEjcwr
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTpoulglpp
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRWwuAmvW1
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPuMgynLP7
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqm0BtBExp
那張紙僅是謎面，她要領悟明鏡的真諦。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPfErPm5Up
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATbefifWNX
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMTNrv9DRG
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWPRJgSZbi
「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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9Dsha4jaS
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNHOVTsHWw
「嗯。」小娜點頭。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpvSMXImzd
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pr7TABICS
「好。各位，準備好了嗎？」岡原對牆壁伸出手掌。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU28bZvgePk
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjXUZIaS4A
「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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpB3F3fOUK
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQDFnnLVt6
「鮮物都・加瓦治！」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxFEgstL42
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KqGTNi8J7
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259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6daf1uddg7
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMvyoomljb
鐵門因為牆壁消失而倒下，他們看到沙卡美正坐在椅子上。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNK6LOJGCW
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVbeKQrw8v
「沙卡美！」小娜上前檢查她的狀況，「她昏倒了！」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlA77ikcut
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs50xYzAqa5
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoQTU15xjn
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeP7WwboT2
「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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sn5jBEkQm
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi59Q3hTeQm
「小娜！陛下狀況怎麼了？」貝吏刻唐走到旁邊問小娜。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjPy0T6SJP
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB60pkvlLt
「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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXcTSALwHA
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNLWyw67qi
「睡、睡覺？」貝吏刻唐不太相信。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEKoDXFuXT
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmjxmwPCEl
「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。」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXRI4tsCRI
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrmSgjBSoi
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......」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUntqPq3tG
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHOqOAHxVI
「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。」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF99lZALf0n
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqANfAU0r0t
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8A6OXEX8e
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TwO0aLiKi
「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！」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRYEB0A46I
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojgRMloP0C
「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。」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEaHFo3OrF
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZHC1UWInv
「贊成！」「贊成！」魔法部隊成員紛紛舉手支持。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA39IWyT32
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYcmJ63GEm
小娜背起沙卡美，跟其他人慢步前往森林。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxKIcxOcff
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeXz9GH1XY
「沙卡美，相信我們，沒有妳我們也不會輕言放棄。」
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoatakXe9v
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYUylSEY0U
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr7JkdaNyM
明鏡到底會帶她去哪裏？掌握了明鏡她就能殺死曼賈嗎？259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡid2fSiBEk1
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2nBoDwBIP
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXpyHADLDl
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY5PyPfUkg
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？259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk5CWMQVhj
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RPcvT8hmK
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvbwqEeQzp
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5fQy6fnfS
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQus1Rol8GC
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafZYIV2C1l
頭和臉都抹乾淨，她拿起刀盯著滿佈水珠的刀身。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJRxS7Mfsb
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fxziwtj6s
「刀......有兩把。」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxbvY2fVZa
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIIxvVbXc9
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ037CJFWAx5
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtesrzISUfm
「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？」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ5WLbq2Jt
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApUlW2deUu
脇差和武士刀冒出紅色火焰，一塊巨石出現在她面前。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFrzZud9Ja
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq7ABEbBeR
她放下手，對兩把刀說：「我明白了。我試試看。」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDG1X0F5Rm
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8juRslkaT
她跑向巨石，跳起劈向巨石，「哈啊啊啊啊！」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzvWxdk391
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwV44OAWQ5j
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBZ8SB3vQW
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTf2njLWzK
沒必要走上和母親一樣的路，她要開拓出屬於她的路。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsN2qGRbIM
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyP3YM2bte
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1u6axxmqC
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKDehuUHxs
她正對其中一條石柱，身體微微傾前。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfKklGmsY6
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny3tbvMV2b
「啊！」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzKHmw8vSu
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEwu2M8XvZ
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS4BrZZCMO
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GyFoCJlGQ
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDTmtzk8R7
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavFvUjrLZe
「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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSxOE7xEJB
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQn0m9vKKO
「希靈格・利卡巴。」她治好擦損的雙手，嘆了口氣。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJzm15iwXS
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZscPQu1IL
「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......」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobJm69KTHt
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00XDYO2Da1
她抱膝，頭貼在手上當枕頭休息。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz27i6pCgqD
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bxIQOeBuQ
「明鏡......拾棄一切......保護一切......我......」她找不到謎題的解答。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR52vlz9O2D
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGTJqAxPDi
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4gLpXTGSl
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynjWx5h6Tl
要找到欠缺的東西，便先要明白自己欠缺了甚麼。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEF7viEbaVT
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiwSRTGuHY
「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？」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL7hCV5cjX
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOGbuaJjiJ
很痛苦。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXQucCILed
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKlTWrHtav
「哪條才是正確的路？沒有——」259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzftqBOywPY
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFHmR7I30E
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。259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkNnmF1r0c
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fKAkwcXut
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。
