-1131- It's over

"Boom!"

At this moment, with a burst of air, Rozen's magical power turned into a mist of blood, swirling and rising.

Within the blood mist, a beast vassal appeared. It had a body as clear as flowing water, with the upper half resembling a beautiful woman and the lower half a giant snake, with hair made up of countless snakes, like the mythical water demon.

"This is...!?" Seeing this, both Yukina and Sayaka were astonished.

Vatler's pupils contracted, unable to believe his eyes, but also ecstatic. "That's the eleventh beast vassal of the Fourth Primogenitor...!" Vatler trembled with joy.

There was no way. Vatler had seen this beast vassal before.

Back then, during the "Flaming Banquet," Vatler was defeated by the beast vassal controlled by Balthazar Zaharias, the owner of six matrices. Among the six beast vassals controlled by those six matrices was the one before them now— "Sadalmelik Albus."

In other words, the beast vassal before them now was one of the culprits that led to Vatler's defeat in the "Flaming Banquet." In this case, how could Vatler not recognize it?

However, Vatler also noticed that compared to the last time it fought against him, the beast vassal before him had not only reduced in size but also weakened significantly in power.

And...

"Why can you use the Fourth Primogenitor's beast vassal?"

Vatler looked at Rozen, his voice still trembling with excitement, and even his eyes turned a crimson hue, revealing his fangs. Seeing his former enemy, Vatler couldn't help but expose his vampire nature.

However, Rozen remained unfazed. "After sealing the original within me, the beast vassals it controlled also entered my body and recognized my abilities, becoming my beast vassals."

Rozen said in a nonchalant tone, revealing something shocking. "Thanks to this, I can freely use the Fourth Primogenitor's beast vassals. However, I don't possess the terrifying magical power that surpasses the Dragon Veins like the Fourth Primogenitor, so their power has decreased significantly compared to their prime."

This was the reason for Sadalmelik Albus's reduced size and weakened power.

As Rozen had originally estimated, summoning these nine beast vassals with his usual magical power only allowed them to reach tactical level, which was a significant decrease.

However...

"Even though their power has decreased, their abilities still exist." Rozen looked towards Kanon Kanase.

"Since that's the case, using it is already enough."

With that said, the water spirit behind Rozen turned into a surging flow of water, rushing out and engulfing Kanase Kanon.

"Kyriiiiiiiiiiiii————!"

Kanon Kanase's instinct as an angel seemed to sense something, so she struggled fiercely, but to no avail.

In this situation, as Kanon Kanase was swallowed by the water spirit's flow, something unusual began to happen to her.

Firstly, the radiant light covering Kanon Kanase's entire body gradually dimmed.

Then, the three pairs of wings behind Kanon Kanase collapsed as if crumbling, shrinking bit by bit, causing the six eyes above them to slowly close, and then, along with the wings, they disappeared without a trace.

Finally, the magical rune patterns on Kanon Kanase's body also seemed to recede directly, bit by bit, until they disappeared.

The scene was as if time were reversing, extraordinarily astonishing.

"What... What's going on...?"

"The runes... are gone...?"

Yukina and Sayaka were at a loss.

However, Vatler voluntarily answered the two girls' questions.

"The eleventh beast vassal symbolizes regeneration and healing, capable of healing all things and restoring them to their original state."

Vatler watched this scene, smiling with his fangs bared.

"Under the power of the eleventh beast vassal, Kanon Kanase's time is flowing backward, the hyperdimensional film covering her entire body is reverting to its original state, and her angelization is gradually returning to its initial state, until it disappears, even the magical runes on Kanon Kanase's body are beginning to return to the condition before they were inscribed on her, completely restoring the girl to her human form."

Indeed.

Since Kanon Kanase started angelizing only after being inscribed with the <Faux Angel> runes, and then swallowed six spirit cores, gradually transforming into a true angel and becoming a higher-dimensional existence, any interference from lower dimensions would not affect her, so reverting Kanon Kanase to her state before anything was done to her was the solution.

The ability of the eleventh beast vassal, <Sadalmelik Albus>, is to heal all things and restore them to their original state, much like time reversal, stealing away the accumulated time of others' inherent existence. Therefore, using its ability can perfectly address the current situation.

Of course, this is an extremely dangerous thing.

"Although that beast vassal symbolizes healing, it is not for medical treatment, but rather to turn back time, restoring all things to their state before. Therefore, organisms will return to their pre-birth state, solid walls will revert to blocks of earth, high-tech cities will become barren lands, advanced civilizations will also regress to their primitive state, which is far from the meaning of 'healing,' but rather a destructive force that reduces everything to nothingness."

Vatler watched the scene closely, his voice becoming more and more excited.

"As a result, the beautiful water spirit, which is considered the incarnation of disaster by people, the eleventh beast vassal of the Fourth Primogenitor, cannot be used to save a girl, but will only lead countless people into despair."

In other words, the power of this beast vassal will not only make Kanon Kanase lose the time of her angelization but will even cause her own self to revert to the state before she was born, disappearing completely.

However, Rozen overturned this result.

Upon closer inspection, as the surging water flow on Kanon Kanase's body disappeared at the moment when the last rune vanished, it immediately dissipated like smoke, leaving no trace.

"To actually control the beast vassal's power perfectly, only reverting the process of angelization and making it disappear, while Kanon Kanase's own time is completely unaffected, just like she was never altered as a faux angel, this level of dominance, this level of control, this absolute control, even the original Fourth Primogenitor can't achieve it!"

Vatler's eyes towards Rozen were full of fanaticism.

"Sure enough, you are truly extraordinary, far beyond my expectations, wonderful, truly wonderful...!"

Vatler made an effort to restrain his impulses.

Otherwise, Vatler would definitely not be able to resist taking action against Rozen, right?

However, Rozen didn't seem to notice at all how dangerous his situation was, as he withdrew the power of the <Injunction Shackles>, causing the chains to retreat into ripples of space, disappearing without a trace, while approaching, holding in his arms Kanon Kanase, who had fallen unconscious with her eyes closed at some point.

"Whoo... Whoo..."

Kanon Kanase no longer emitted mournful and crying screams, but rather relaxed her face like a pure and sacred girl, sleeping peacefully.

Under the power of the water spirit, Kanase Kanon's burden of angelization was completely eliminated.

After all, the time of angelization was completely reversed and disappeared, as if it had never occurred in the first place, so naturally there was no burden to speak of.

It was precisely because of this that Rozen chose to use the power of the eleventh beast vassal.

The other beast vassals could also handle this situation, and Rozen had other means at his disposal to solve the trouble of the <Faux Angel>.

As Vatler said, Rozen was not without a solution.

It's just that no one could have anticipated that Rozen had plenty of ways to deal with it.

"It's over."

Rozen muttered to himself.

In his arms, the pure white and sacred girl continued to sleep peacefully.
