Queen's Blade Unlimited Story: Chapter 10-3a

And with only a few more bits until the end of the story, we witness a kinda season-appropiate Christmas miracle, our first live birth...?

Enjoy!

Episode 10: Final Battle! End of the Beautiful Fighters! (Part 3)


At the same time the hourglass floating in the sky stopped, the evil spirits and demonic beasts the Beautiful Fighters were facing burned all at once, turning into ashes.
The battle finished now, they all gathered around Elina and her colleagues, to see a new life being born.
“Nhaah... kuuuh...”
[No matter how protean her body is, she still feels pain when it comes to childbirth? Or is she acting?]
Along with Melona’s anguished voice, Michel’s head popped up from her body.
“Elinaaa... hurry... and get him out...”
 

 
Prompted by the other, the blonde pulled his body out.
Despite having just been “born”, she couldn’t really find anything different in him from last time.
“Puhaaa... that was tiiight... everyone, be prepared when you become mommies, you’d much rather get slashed with a sword.”
They all smiled at her comment, as the shapeshifter went back to her original form.
“Well, then again, it’s not like they’ll pop up all grown up like here tho.”
She was already back to the usual Melona; one wouldn’t expect less from an evil spirit with such a malleable body.

“Michel, are you okay?”
“Lady Elina? And all the other Beautiful Fighters?”
“Seems you’re back to your senses.”
“If you need treatment, I’m willing to help.”
After Melpha’s offer, Tomoe raised her hand too.
[I don’t think there’s any problem leaving him with these two.]
“No, first let’s get you covered up.”
Alleyne put her cape on top of the boy.

“No matter the case, being naked isn’t acceptable.”
“Oh, so for the millennial virgin, even a boy’s naked form is too strong of a stimulus...”
“Echidna... we might have to settle it here.”
“I’d like nothing more... but it seems we’re outta time.”
Light was coming out of Echidna’s body.
And she wasn’t the only one. The bodies of the Beautiful Fighters who had come there at the behest of Nanael—not having crossed the Maramaks gate—were beginning to glow; they were being pulled back to whence they came from.

“Leina! Don’t ya forget. We got a battle pending!”
“Yes, I’ll never forget it.”
“Good then! Let’s go all out and have a blast!”
Risty faded into the light with a hearty laugh. The other fighters soon followed, as they vowed for a rematch.
“Elina... if you’ve achieved your purpose, come back. It’s tough for the Earl.”
Claudette left as well, leaving kind words for the young sister.
“Step Sister, I have nothing to say to you either.”
Leina’s sulking remark got a smile out of the youngest.
“Big Sister, Step Sister Claudette gets tense when she has to talk to you.”
“She does?”
“Yeah, she herself said so, there’s no doubt.”
“Yeah, yeah, you sisters do keep getting all chummy.”
Nanael broke into their conversation.

“There’s no point to this place anymore.”
With a snap of the angel’s fingers, the gates of Maramaks appeared before their eyes.
“With the Demon purified, the magic that maintains this space will also disappear. If you don’t want to disappear into the void between Maramaks and your world, you’d better return.”
From the corner of their eyes, a wall of light approached slowly. That space was breaking down into nothing.
“Lady... Elina...”
The boy faintly opened his eyes.
“It’s okay, this is all over now.”
“Let’s go back home to our world.”
Leina grabbed Elina’s hand, Elina took Michel’s, and they went through the Maramaks’ gate.
