At the end of the battle, Euston finally cornered Demonic Spear Dildow.
However, when she tried to finish it off, her spear was knocked off in the opposite direction. |

"Oh no...!" |
Demonic Spear Dildow |
"Khaha, now I've won!" |
![Story Karakawa.png](/images/6/61/Story_Karakawa.png) Karakawa |
"Eu-chan!" |
Demonic Spear Dildow had its tip pointing at Euston's chest. Neither Karakawa nor Austerlitz are in position to help. |
That situation was dire. Euston found herself right on the pedestal of the paintbrush spear, and she grabbed it without hesitation. |
Demonic Spear Dildow |
"Die!" |
Euston should have been unable to pull out the paintbrush spear, yet it successfully landed in he hand. She turned around and thrusted it onto Demonic Spear Dildow. |

"HAAAH!!" |
Demonic Spear Dildow |
"Impossible..." |
Stabbed by the paintbrush spear, Demonic Spear Dildow disappeared, its expression visibly surprised. |
It seems to have little function as a spear, so it is questionable whether it has been completely defeated, but it is clear that the threat has passed for the moment. |

"That was a close call." |
![Story Karakawa.png](/images/6/61/Story_Karakawa.png) Karakawa |
"Eu-chan, thank goodness you're okay..." |
![Story Austerlitz.png](/images/b/b4/Story_Austerlitz.png) Austerlitz |
"I had a scare there for a moment, but to be able to use a paintbrush spear so well, L'Austerlitz is a surprised Litz." |
![Story Karakawa.png](/images/6/61/Story_Karakawa.png) Karakawa |
"By the way, we didn't pull it out earlier, but it's amazing you pulled it out, Eu-chan." |
![Story Euston.png](/images/5/55/Story_Euston.png) Euston |
"I was so engrossed, that I don't even know how I even managed to pull it out..." |
![Story Austerlitz.png](/images/b/b4/Story_Austerlitz.png) Austerlitz |
"Mademoiselle Euston, are your pockets shining?" |
![Story Euston.png](/images/5/55/Story_Euston.png) Euston |
"Ah, you're right. I don't remember putting anything shiny in there though." |
![Story Euston.png](/images/5/55/Story_Euston.png) Euston |
"This is... the tiger amulet I bought at the shrine." |
As Euston gazed at the amulet, the previously unfriendly tiger came up to her and rubbed its cheek. |
![Story Euston.png](/images/5/55/Story_Euston.png) Euston |
"Perhaps it has recognised me...?" |
![Story Austerlitz.png](/images/b/b4/Story_Austerlitz.png) Austerlitz |
"With that amulet and the animal costume on the way, it was Euston who was more sincere about the tiger than anyone else. That's why you're was recognised, L'Austerlitz ponders." |
![Story Karakawa.png](/images/6/61/Story_Karakawa.png) Karakawa |
"That's right♪ Eu-chan's worked the hardest of all." |
![Story Karakawa.png](/images/6/61/Story_Karakawa.png) Karakawa |
"By the way Eu-chan, why don't you draw something since you're here?" |
![Story Austerlitz.png](/images/b/b4/Story_Austerlitz.png) Austerlitz |
"Just in case something like this happens, L'Austerlitz has prepared a huge sheet of paper. Please, use it as you like." |
![Story Euston.png](/images/5/55/Story_Euston.png) Euston |
"T-Thank you, but I have no artistic talent though. I'm sure I'll end up with something terrible." |
![Story Karakawa.png](/images/6/61/Story_Karakawa.png) Karakawa |
"It doesn't necessarily have to be a picture." |
![Story Euston.png](/images/5/55/Story_Euston.png) Euston |
"You mean...?" |
![Story Karakawa.png](/images/6/61/Story_Karakawa.png) Karakawa |
"In Nishiki, there is a culture called 'kakizome', where people write letters or draw pictures with a brush at the beginning of the new year. Many people put their hearts into it and spell out their aspirations for the year and other words they want to write." |
![Story Euston.png](/images/5/55/Story_Euston.png) Euston |
"The letters I want to write?" |
![Story Austerlitz.png](/images/b/b4/Story_Austerlitz.png) Austerlitz |
"Your ambitions for the SSS, or your favourite words, or whatever comes to your mind you want to write. By the way, the word I want to write now is 'rod'." |
Conductor |
I'm glad Austerlitz wasn't chosen by the paintbrush spear... |
![H O P E.jpg](/images/1/17/H_O_P_E.jpg) |
Euston |
"Understood. I know the word I want to write." |
Karakawa |
"Then, Karakawa and Austerlitz-chan have it pressed down, so you can write it as boldly as you like, Eu-chan!" |
Austerlitz |
"I wouldn't mind if you accidentally swiped my body with your brush tip." |
Euston |
"Hmhmm, if you give me something with a long handle, I won't make a mistake." |
Euston |
"Well then, I'll write a wish for the future of the SSS!" |
Euston swung the paintbrush spear and boldly lowered the tip of the brush onto the paper. |
Then, she lively spelt out the four letters 'H O P E'. |
Euston |
"Sir Conductor, and everyone else! Please keep up the good work together!" |
