Within the domain, the entire world was like the inside of a volcano, with unbearably hot and dry air. The ground, walls, and ceiling were covered with cracks, and magma flowed and boiled within the cracks, as if it were about to erupt at any moment.

"Now, how should we deal with you all?"

Louhu stood in the center of the domain, his whole body relaxed slightly, revealing a cruel and mocking gaze as he swept over everyone in the domain, finally landing on Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Ultimately, this little girl was the target of his operation.

But at that moment, he suddenly felt a sense of unease, a sense of unease that came from the weak man behind Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Upon seeing the other person, he frowned slightly.

Logically speaking, ordinary sorcerers would be burned to ashes the moment they enter his domain. It's one thing for those little girls to be alive, but why is such a weak man still alive?

Tanaka was also filled with doubt and uncertainty. Just a moment ago, when the opponent unleashed their domain, his instincts still sensed the approach of death. However, it seemed that a mysterious force had suddenly protected him.

Thinking this, he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in front of him. Although he didn't know what had happened, he figured that she must have saved him.

There was no one else besides him.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was unaware of their doubts, and even if she had, she wouldn't have explained to them what "the protection of a saint" meant.

The [Phantom Warhorse Mane] she wears on her right hand possesses the power to suppress evil. Even within the opponent's territory, anyone standing beside her can receive a certain degree of protection.

Looking at the space before her, she gave the order to Ryougi Shiki:

"Thank you for your help, Shiki."

"clear."

Ryougi Shiki drew her katana, her bewitching rainbow eyes gazing into the void.

The essence of a domain is also a kind of barrier, only the highest level barrier. However, to her, the so-called domain in front of her was no different from the two barriers she had killed before.

It's just about finding the deadline, and then—

Kill.

"Varied!"

Thus, before Louhu could even begin to use his domain, it shattered and collapsed under Ryougi Shiki's blade!

why?

That's impossible!

What on earth happened?!

His eyes widened, his shocked gaze fixed on the other person, his mind a complete blank, unsure of how to react.

He knew that the woman seemed to possess some kind of ability to counter barriers, but—

That's his territory!

How could it be so easy!?

However, he didn't have much free time to think; an extremely cold voice rang in his ear—

"You piece of trash!"

I went to get a haircut today, and as expected, no one can leave a hair salon with a smile on their face.

And the price is ridiculously expensive!

What a thief!

Chapter 64 The Dragon Witch

Jeanne Alter's eyes were filled with murderous intent. To her, it was an utter disgrace that the other party's ability had touched Fujimaru Ritsuka!

Even burning you to ashes wouldn't be enough to vent my anger.

She gritted her teeth, venting her anger, while at the same time, the magic within her surged wildly, gathering towards the ground beneath her feet.

Gradually, a huge magic circle appeared on the ground beneath Jeanne Alter's feet.

To be precise, it was a summoning circle.

[Possessing skills]

Dragon Witch: EX

Born from a man's wish, Jeanne Alter possesses the innate power to command dragons.

The phenomenon of reversal, where the legend of saints who were believed to have driven away the dragon race, such as Saint Martha or Saint George, is attributed to them.

He possesses a unique leadership quality that makes dragons obey him.

"A disgusting being like you is best served as tea snacks for a dragon."

As Joan of Arc Alter spoke, the summoning circle beneath her feet shone even brighter, and the accumulated magic power had reached its critical value, fulfilling the summoning conditions.

Then, amidst Louhu's bewildered expression, she called out loudly:

"Descend, my companion, my evil dragon—"

"Fafnir!"

In an instant, the ground shook.

The earth suddenly trembled, as if a violent earthquake had occurred. At the same time, Hisahito Itadori and Akagi, who were fighting not far away, stopped their movements and looked in the direction where Jeanne d'Arc Alter was.

In this one, they sensed the arrival of a terrifying being.

“Ho ho ho ho ho—!!!”

With a roar like muffled thunder, a colossal creature that blotted out the sky appeared behind Joan of Arc Alter, shrouding her and the Louhu in front of her in shadow.

A pair of enormous, demonic horns rose high from its head, its massive wings raised a cloud of dust, and it possessed a robust yet slender body, sharp claws, and jet-black scales.

Most strikingly, its abdomen displays a green, glowing mark, giving it a mysterious and eerie appearance.

Undoubtedly, it was originally a synonym for evil and destruction, existing only in legends and stories—

Evil dragon.

Fafnir is a dragon who was once a human.

It is said that because he refused to share the gold he obtained, the brothers engaged in an ugly and superficial battle, and he, who ultimately emerged victorious, chose to become a non-human being. He was eventually defeated by his fellow hero Siegfried/Sigurd.

It is a dragon, but it is not merely a dragon; rather, it represents a phenomenon of dragonhood. In the cultures of various European countries, it is the concept of a dragon that dwells in dangerous places and possesses great wealth.

"It's Fafnir!"

Upon seeing the dragon summoned by Jeanne Alter, Fujimaru Ritsuka affectionately called out its name, a smile involuntarily appearing on her face.

But at this moment, Tanaka, the assistant supervisor standing behind her, couldn't smile; his legs were even trembling slightly from fear.

He looked at Fafnir, who had been summoned by Joan of Arc Alter, in horror, his mind a complete mess.

What's going on? Can the shikigami still be summoned?

Moreover, what was summoned was a legendary evil dragon!

He didn't even dare to look closely at Fafnir, and cautiously asked Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"Miss Ritsuka, are we really alright now? What about that creature that looks like a Western dragon?"

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and waved her hand, saying:

"Don't be fooled by Fafnir's fierce appearance; it's actually a very friendly dragon."

Fafnir was summoned to Chaldea along with Jeanne d'Arc Alter, and it even helped light her birthday candles on her birthday.

"friendly?"

Tanaka suspected there was something wrong with his ears, otherwise how could he have heard such an outrageous adjective?

Is it him who's gone mad, or is it Fujimaru Ritsuka who's gone mad?

However, looking at the calm expressions of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Ryougi Shiki beside him, he gradually began to doubt himself.

Does the word "friendliness" now have a completely new meaning? Is it outdated?

However, since Fujimaru Ritsuka had indicated that there was no problem, he could only keep his doubts to himself and wait and see how things developed.

On the other hand, Louhu, who faces the evil dragon head-on, cannot have the lingering feeling of daydreaming like Tanaka.

"what is that?"

Lou Hu stared blankly at the monster before him, cold sweat gradually trickling down his forehead without him even realizing it.

As a cursed spirit, he could only refer to Fafnir as a monster.

The monster felt to him like a terrifying abyss, unfathomable and incomprehensible, something that shouldn't exist in this world.

After summoning Fafnir, Joan of Arc Alter did not immediately target Leaky, but instead greeted it first:

"Fafnir."

"Roar--"

Upon hearing Joan of Arc Alter's call, Fafnir slowly lowered his head, finally stopping at a position where Joan of Arc Alter could just reach it.

"What a spoiled child."

She reached out and gently stroked the other's chin. Feeling Joan of Arc's touch, Fafnir closed his eyes slightly, seemingly enjoying it, and his tail swayed slightly.

If you ignore the other person's race, the scene before you is as warm and comforting as a person petting their dog.

However, this scenario only makes Fafnir seem even more bizarre.

After exchanging greetings, Joan of Arc Alter finally turned her gaze back to Louhu, and Fafnir followed her gaze, fixing it on him.

“Fafner,”

Looking at Louhu, Joan of Arc's expression turned cold again, and she softly gave the order:

"Eat him."

The pupils of the coral constrict slightly.
