Let's Fight

At this time, Ais had already vaguely realized that in the coming final battle, her greatest opponent and enemy would undoubtedly be the Monster Revis.

Though it had yet to happen, thinking of the entanglement between them thus far, Ais was certain that once the final battle truly began, even if she did not seek Revis out, Revis would definitely come looking for her.

Even if it was not to settle their score once and for all, to determine victory and defeat, the Corrupted Fairy's desire to devour her—the desire that coveted the fairy blood within her every moment—would make the Monster Revis unhesitatingly mark her as the greatest target.

And Ais was the same. Ever since Revis had called her "Aria" in Rivira Town on the 18th Floor, she had been unable to regard Revis as an ordinary opponent or an ordinary enemy.

Whether for herself or for that name belonging solely to her mother, she had to personally defeat that Monster.

Their battles so far had always gone back and forth. At first, Revis had suppressed her in Rivira Town on the 18th Floor; later, Ais had suppressed Revis in the food storage on the 24th Floor; then, during their last encounter in the Artificial Labyrinth Knossos, Ais had once again been suppressed by Revis. Their relative strength had constantly shifted, tangling together, and they had yet to truly decide a victor.

Now, the greatest crisis threatening the city had arrived. The enemy had gone all out and deployed their final means, while their side was gathering forces to completely crush the enemy's scheme. The atmosphere of the final battle had already fully taken shape, and the unresolved outcome between the two of them would surely be decided then.

Realizing this, Ais felt both fighting spirit and pressure.
