-1196- Only that person is qualified

As Tokoyogi Aya watched Himeragi Yukina, Kirasaka Sayaka, and La Folia Rihavein enter the battlefield, a glint appeared in her eyes.

The delicate young man squinted as he observed the weapons in Yukina and Sayaka's hands.

"Mechanical Demon-Purging Assault Spear Mark Seven... Heavy Demon-Purging Bow Type Six.... I see, the Sword Shaman and the Shamanic War Dancer of the Lion King Agency, is it?"

This delicate young man, who had never shown interest in anything before, now revealed a hint of emotion.

"It seems you only appear when it's unnecessary, Lion King Agency."

He mocked, his words tinged with coldness and disdain.

Especially when he saw the Mechanical Demon-Purging Assault Spear Mark Seven in Yukina's hands, his delicate features twitched like never before.

After a while, the delicate young man finally calmed down.

"Never mind, it's not time to conflict with you, Lion King Agency."

He pushed up his glasses and returned to his previous observing mode.

On the other hand, Tokoyogi Aya's gaze began to wander, eventually settling on Natsuki, who was watching the battlefield from behind, and she smiled.

At the same time, Rozen and his group faced the criminals within the prison barrier again.

"To think that my Beast Vassal was defeated with just such a weak spear..."

Jiriora Giraruti stared at Yukina with murderous intent.

"..."

Yukina endured the killing intent, tense all over, and raised her Anti-Magic Spear without daring to be careless, facing Jiriora.

"Spirit Summoner..."

Meanwhile, Kiliga Gilika's attention had been completely taken by La Folia Rihavein, leaving no room for anyone else.

"Yes, I am a Spirit Summoner. Unlike you, who implants spirits into your body to squander vast amounts of spiritual power, I am a true Spirit Summoner."

La Folia smiled without changing her expression, but her merciless words twisted Kiliga's face even more.

Perhaps Kiliga already sensed that the person in front of him was someone he could never match?

This didn't refer to being weaker than the other in terms of power, but rather to their rank as Spirit Summoners.

Kiliga, who controlled Flame Spirits, could only support himself with the ability to command low-level spirits.

In contrast, La Folia, as a member of the Aldigyrian royal family and the highest-ranking Spirit Medium, also had the highest level of affinity with spirits. Not to mention Flame Spirits, even the most advanced Light Spirits could be commanded.

It is said that Aldigyria, as a country of magecraft, has developed a spirit furnace that can summon Light Spirits. By providing a vast amount of spiritual power, the weapons' sanctity can be temporarily enhanced, transforming them into pseudo-sacred swords that resemble legendary holy swords and possess the effect of exorcising demons.

Therefore, Aldigyria's Holy Ring Knights are the most outstanding anti-demon force, thanks to the exorcism effect of their pseudo-sacred swords, which is a natural enemy to demons.

And La Folia can achieve the same thing alone, summoning the highest-level spirits as a spirit medium and using them to squander tremendous spiritual power and sanctity.

Compared to La Folia, Kiliga is just a low-level Spirit Summoner, and he is aware of this himself, which is why he implanted Flame Spirits directly into his body to gain a more efficient killing ability.

But in the eyes of the highest-level Spirit Summoner, such methods are naturally despicable tricks.

"I will show you what a true Spirit Summoner is."

La Folia began emanating a large amount of cold air and summoned spirits within her body, accumulating immense spiritual power.

"I'll kill you...! I'll kill you...!"

Kiliga Gilika stared fiercely at La Folia, flames surging all over his body.

Meanwhile, Kirasaka Sayaka also engaged in battle with Broodt Dumblegraff.

"Oooh...!"

Broodt roared, struggling under the terrifying pressure, yet managed to stand up despite his muscles creaking.

"You must be joking..."

Sayaka was dumbfounded.

"Just relying on the body to resist large-scale spells?"

That was unheard of.

But Broodt could do it.

Because...

"My body is infused with dragon blood, not only making me impervious to weapons but also giving me anti-magic abilities on par with dragons. Just watch me break through it...!"

Broodt roared.

"Damn it! That's why I hate men! They're all just barbaric and disgusting!"

Sayaka cursed but still raised her silver bow, ready to counter Broodt.

The three girls each confronted their respective criminals.

As for the remaining criminals within the prison barrier...

"Swoosh!"

Amidst the sound akin to swimming, countless silver chains shot out, lashing onto the heavily injured but still alive magic criminals within the barrier.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Under the muffled impacts, the silver chains ruthlessly flung each criminal to the ground, rendering them unable to rise again.

Rozen was surrounded by numerous silver chains, like living pets cuddling up to him, resolving all the magic criminals.

With that...

"Only you two are left, right?"

Rozen cast his gaze towards the distant Tokoyogi Aya and the elegant young man.

Apart from Jiriora Giraruti, Broodt Dumblegraff, and Kiliga Gilika, among the escaped criminals within the prison barrier, only this man and woman remained.

But...

"No need to hurry, Nichiyo."

As if she had been waiting for a long time, Tokoyogi Aya smiled faintly at Rozen.

"Your opponent isn't me, and certainly not him."

That was only natural, right?

"Only that person is qualified to be your opponent, isn't that so?"

Tokoyogi Aya said indifferently, then turned around to look behind her.

The elegant young man also followed her gaze.

And Rozen, even before Tokoyogi Aya said those words, already had a feeling, his eyes narrowed, silent for a moment, then sighed, his expression turning icy as he looked in a certain direction.

There...

"It seems my wait hasn't been in vain."

A girl's laughter rang out unexpectedly from the space, and the space there suddenly split open.

The girl slowly walked out from within.

The moment she appeared, the atmosphere on the entire battlefield seemed to freeze, becoming stagnant.

So everyone watched this girl, their faces changing drastically.

Only Rozen, with a cold gaze, stared at her and uttered her name.

"Giada Kukulcan..."

The most powerful and vicious enemy had finally appeared here.

And she faced Rozen, resolutely.
