I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Something strange happened.

Not only did the beautiful body that had lost its life not fall down, but it maintained its original posture and stood in the spire, standing in front of Rubare.

Seeing this strange scene, Rubare instinctively felt something was wrong, but he didn't know where the trouble came from.

In an instant, he quickly retreated at a speed that could catch up with these questions. Although he is younger than the real Zu Hai, he has the talent to not let his name of a great nobleman be shamed.

Then he heard a sound.

Strange sounds.

It is different from the air vibration sound that vibrates the eardrum.

That is more essential - the friction of aliens that cannot exist in this dimension, it is the friction sound that the soul seems to have heard directly.

Immediately afterwards, a breath that was not of this world came out from "the inside of the orange".

It was an indescribable magic power. Even the secret treasure that Rubare regarded as his greatest reliance could not compete with this magic power. It was a terrifying magic power that made people feel hopeless.

At the same time, the strange noise that no one had ever heard became more harsh, so harsh that it made Rubare want to go crazy.

With a slight "pop", Orange's belly shattered.

It wasn't clothes or flesh and blood, but it was peeled off like the material of the statue - the wound that opened there was some kind of "door".

From its slightly open gap, only darkness could be seen. Even the Dead Apostles' dark vision, which is far superior to human beings, cannot be seen clearly. It is as if the darkness has a form and is contained inside.

Pitch black darkness.

There is no end or even distance, an endless hell.

In the dark bottom where no magic or technological light can reach, two points of light are shining.

Those are two, two eyes - although it does not meet the definition of eyes in the general sense, Rubare knows that they are two eyes.

An unsyllable scream came from the throat of the "Death Apostle of the Lake".

Orange's body collapsed, and at the same time, a black shadow extended from it with rapid force.

The thorny tentacles and ominous hooks tied up the Dead Apostle who had retreated to the corner and hurt his master.

"Well... uh..."

Reason told Rubare that he should resist, but his body could not make any movement. He could only watch his body being tied up by tentacles and hooks, and being dragged into Aozaki Orange's "door". Chewed by thousands of sharp teeth.

At this moment, Rubare felt the emotions of the sacrifices whose blood he had squeezed before their deaths. This feeling was called fear, and it was enough to crush the soul's fear. Even if it is only about the size of a fingertip, the feelings are completely filled with negative emotions.

It's over, it's over.

The career of the Dead Apostle and the ideal of Ancestor are all over.

The monster began to eat from his feet with thousands of small mouths. He could only be eaten alive like this. Before losing consciousness, he only had the sight of his head facing the lifeless puppet master.

Her eyes were not closed, as if to watch this horrible death. For some reason, Rubare felt that this empty look was full of contempt, as if he was saying again - I'm not bluffing, I said I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you.

Father, you really shouldn’t have anything to do with these monsters!

The last piece of brain was chewed.

That is, the final thoughts of the "Death Apostle of the Lake".

He didn't have time to activate that precious secret treasure until he died.

The monster that devoured the Death Apostles was not satisfied. The monster had lost its form, and only the vague "box" of darkness could be seen spreading outwards again. Ten times or a hundred times more thorn tentacles than before were released from the inside of the dark "box" in one breath.

floor.

wall.

Pillars.

Even decoration.

These tentacles drag everything they touch into the body hidden in the "box", leaving to the outside world a darkness deeper than this land of eternal night, and the ever-expanding madness of magic.

Everyone who witnessed this scene, whether they were Dead Apostles or humans, were stunned.

The humans were okay, because they had been notified in advance and knew that it was a gift specially prepared by Chengzi for Lubare, but they did not expect that the gift would be so exaggerated.

The Death Apostles were filled with fear, shocked by the monster's indescribable terror, and fearful of the monster's ability to kill their ancestors.

The Dead Apostles in the castle are all connected by blood to Rubare. Once he passes away, all the Dead Apostles will be affected. The heirs who directly received the "original liquid" and power from Rubare will also be implicated and their strength will be reduced.

The direct result was that the massacre of Sakura, Fujino, and Lorelaia went more smoothly as they split up.

Fujino, who was in charge of the section east of the spire, twisted the last Dead Apostle in the area into a ball. Sakura, who was teaming up with her, stabbed the Death Apostle in the heart with a "magic bow sword", completely ending him.

Then, the two girls looked at the spire that was already half covered by darkness.

"Teacher seems to have succeeded."

"Well, let's hurry over and meet Sister Chengzi."

On the other side, Lorelaia, who was alone, was also looking at the monster that showed its presence wantonly. She remembered a certain legend she heard from Observatory Calyon.

Legend has it that one of the "Seal Designated" targets, the "Grand Rank" puppet master Aozaki Yuko, raised a monster. This monster has no name. It is only known that it has always been in the hands of Aozaki Orange, but no one has seen through its mysterious true face. Maybe even Aozaki Orange himself does not know the true situation of the monster.

All that is known is that the monster cannot speak, the fact that it has devoured two digits of executors, and the most important thing - this monster is immortal!

"You actually released such a monster, what on earth was Aozaki Orange thinking?"

Lorelaia shook her ponytail, turned around and ran towards the spire. Before leaving, she did not forget to blast the female Death Apostle who had escaped from her earlier into ashes.

The three girls arrived almost at the same time, and the first words they spoke were to ask Kirie who was guarding outside the tower.

"Teacher/Miss Orange/Sister, where is the person?"

When asked, Kirie showed a strange expression on her face: "Uh, Miss Orange is with my body."

"What?" The three girls looked at me, and I looked at you, all looking confused.

Chengzi was with them more than ten minutes ago, so why is he now in Oslo, hundreds of kilometers away?

"Well, Sister Chengzi said the specific method is a secret."

"Then did she tell us what to do here? If we leave this guy alone, it might be able to swallow the entire castle." After all, Lorelaia was born as the Queen of the Clock Tower, so she considered the problem more carefully.

"She said, she said just wait until its eyes are exposed and then throw the box over."

Kirie was holding an oversized suitcase in his hand, and its cube shape reminded Lorelaia of something legendary.

"A box that seals monsters in mythology. As expected of Aozaki Orange, he can even make such a thing. It seems that this operation is over, but it's a pity that he can't contact Shinji and can't tell him the good news. Secondly Where did the magician take him? He couldn't really take him to travel to a parallel world, right?"

Lorelaia didn't know that her casual comment was the standard answer. The boy they both worried about had gone to another world, a world called "Fate apocrypha".

PS: The current trump card that tends to be orange comes from the Cthulhu Mythos. Anyone who has seen it will have their San value plummeting. In other words, Chengzi and Hengfeiji (Fu Niang, real name Francois, ally of the Marshal, original master of the religion) killed each other dozens of times, which was completely a Cthulhu civil war.
