The first to interrupt the two was Kamsin. He was a serious person and, despite the threat of a powerful magic spell above his head, he would never forget his business. After his reminder, the two somewhat carried away stopped their public display of affection.

"The effect of that free law seems to be to use the distortion of the city to dig holes in space."

Seeing that the two had stopped, Kamsin began to explain.

"It's like forcibly removing one of the pieces from a jigsaw puzzle. Does that make it easier to understand?"

As one of the world's oldest Flame Haze warriors, and given his expertise in his field, Kamsin is undoubtedly an authority on these issues.

"What's the point of doing this?"

Alastor understood, but understanding is one thing, and comprehending it is another.

"He has been doing inexplicable things for a long time."

Having lived for so long, he has a certain understanding of the famous Crimson Denizens, and the "Inquisitive" Dantalio has always been known for his inexplicable behavior, making him a notorious oddball even among the Crimson Denizens.

"In any case, if left unchecked, it will have a huge impact on the city, so tuning is necessary."

Kamsin turned his gaze to Yoshida Kazumi, who was standing next to Lin Yu.

"Just like I told you yesterday, could you help us with the tuning?"

Lin Yu sighed. Although he was very reluctant to let Yoshida Kazumi get involved in this extremely dangerous circle, it was too late to say anything now. Even if she only knew some of the most basic knowledge, she had already stepped into it, and it wouldn't be so easy for her to back out.

"Do it your way."

Although he was reluctant to have too much contact with Yoshida Kazumi, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it now. In short, if Lin Yu's combat strength wasn't so far behind Kamsin's, he would have wanted to fight her to vent his anger.

Seeing Lin Yu cheering her on, Yoshida Kazumi's eyes, which had been clouded by jealousy, cleared slightly for a moment, but were clouded again by the powerful force of the Seven Sins, while on the surface she appeared no different from usual.

With a firm nod, Kamsin, having received confirmation, removed the massive iron rod he had been carrying on his back and stood it upright on the ground. As Yoshida Kazumi placed her hand on the iron rod, Kamsin's Freedom Technique was activated.

"Qatar repaired the ventricle."

A pale blue halo enveloped the two of them, centered on the iron rod, but after a burst of light, no further movement was heard.

"It doesn't seem to be working."

As soon as the words were spoken, all the Flame Haze warriors present, including Lin Yu, instantly went into battle mode, because those words were not spoken by anyone present!

[The great battle is about to begin, and the first volume of Shakugan no Shana is coming to an end. The next world is Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-!]

[Don't ask me why Yoshida Kazumi calls her Shana instead of Hirai Yukari or Hirai Yukari. Because of the era, there are so many different translations for Shakugan no Shana, and no matter which one I use, people will say it's wrong. I'll just save myself the trouble and use Shana directly. As for the other terms, they were all found on Baidu Baike (Baidu Encyclopedia). Please forgive me if they differ from the translations you've seen!]

048. An unexpected sneak attack!

"Feng Jue!"

A crimson wall of flames rose instantly, and in the dim, lightless air, a giant beast looked at the five tiny creatures in front of it with a mocking gaze.

"'Thousand Transformations' Xiudenan!"

An ominous premonition gripped my heart, and as I looked around, I quickly spotted several unfamiliar figures.

Hostility, made no attempt to hide it!

"Shana, protect Yoshida!"

The fact that three Flame Haze warriors dared to swagger in front of him now clearly indicated ill intent. Knowing his own limitations, Lin Yu immediately sought help from Shana.

This is only because the situation is urgent now. Under normal circumstances, he would never do something as foolish as asking his rival to protect him. However, he still trusts Shana.

"Oh dear, it seems we've come at the wrong time. Three Flame Haze warriors have gathered in one city."

A beautiful, mature woman with an eyepatch covering her right eye but a third eye on her forehead stared at Lin Yu for a moment before glancing at the Flame Mist Warriors around him.

"It's been a long time, you who drive the ceremonial procession, the fire that ravaged the world, and the one who sang the eulogy."

His tone, as if he were meeting an old friend, made everyone present except Lin Yu and Yoshida Kazumi take their time.

"The arbiter who defies reason—Velpeor!"

Alastor revealed the true identity of the beautiful mature woman in front of him, causing Lin Yu's pupils to shrink sharply.

"Is this the other one of the Three Pillars? Then he is the one who will sit on the top seat?"

Lin Yu focused his gaze on the last attacker. Despite his seemingly ordinary appearance, he felt the aura of a natural enemy!

"No!" To Lin Yu's surprise, Alastor directly denied his guess and revealed a shocking truth: "He is human!"

"Humans!"

Anger suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart. Being able to move freely in the sealed area, and being mixed up with Xiudenan, the identity of the human in front of him was self-evident.

"You are the Seven Deadly Sins!"

"Oh?" Seven Sins looked at Lin Yu with a hint of surprise, then laughed: "That's right, I am Seven Sins, the one who ambushed that little girl last time!"

Making no attempt to conceal his origins, he even proactively admitted that he was the culprit who had tricked Shana once in battle. Lin Yu felt that his anger, which had been dormant for too many years, was about to erupt.

"clam down!"

Alastor shouted loudly, startling Lin Yu, who quickly realized something was wrong.

"You can control other people's emotions?!"

While Lin Yu was furious about Shana's sneak attack, he was far from losing his mind as he had just been. If it weren't for Alastor's reminder, he might have already rushed out and fought Seven Sins to the death.

"Haha, that's right, that's right, this is my ability, but you're too weak. You almost succeeded with just a little guidance."

The strange ability sent a chill down Lin Yu's spine.

"Such abilities are only suitable for sneak attacks. Since he's standing here, he must have some other trump cards up his sleeve. And with two of the Three Pillars of State standing nearby, making Shana and the others wary, this battle is going to be tough!"

Lin Yu estimated the difference in combat strength between the two sides. Although he did not think that his side was at a disadvantage, he always felt that he had overlooked something.

"Wait! There's something wrong with that 'Freedom of Law' thing! They're here to stall for time!"

Lin Yu looked up slightly and saw that the enormous Freedom Law in the sky was almost complete, but it was already too late.

"I can't feel anything at all! What exactly is this so-called 'freedom of the Dharma'?!"

Although Lin Yu's combat strength is still greatly lacking, he still has basic perception and eyesight after several major battles. Even so, he simply cannot understand how such a huge enemy could be silently deployed in this city and evade the perception of as many as three Flame Haze warriors.

"Wait, Flame Haze can sense Crimson Denizens but they can't sense humans!"

Lin Yu clenched his fists. It was too late for him to realize that he had overlooked the crucial information that the Seven Sins were human. This was also why, after arriving in this world, he had only encountered Flame Haze and Crimson Denizens, which led him to subconsciously ignore their human identity.

“Something’s about to come out!” Kamsin warned.

The three attackers didn't seem to have any intention of making a move. Seeing that Lin Yu and his group didn't take any action, they were happy to relax, since the main characters hadn't even appeared yet!

scoff!

As streaks of lightning flashed across the sky, a colossal creature gradually revealed its true form within the immense Dharma of the heavens.

"What is that? A floating island? A palace?" When they saw its full appearance, everyone present gasped.

It was a huge island floating in the air, covered with magnificent palaces. The colossal thing that Lin Yu had only imagined in his mind had actually appeared before him.

"Could it be..." Even Alastor was no longer calm. "The headquarters of the Crimson World's 'Masquerade Ball,' two of the 'Three Pillars' are here. There's no reason why Star Lord isn't nearby. I just didn't expect him to actually appear in his true form."

"Velpeor, you can't possibly be unaware of the enormous impact such a massive organization will have on the world."

Alastor's tone was unfriendly. As he said, the arrival of the Star Palace had almost distorted the space of the entire city. Such a huge impact was absolutely intolerable for the Flame Haze warriors, who regarded maintaining the stability of the world as their mission.

"To exaggerate to this extent, it seems the Heavenly Calamity Flame has truly fallen on hard times."

Bellpeor looked dismissive, completely unconcerned about the harm she might cause to the world. After all, her arrival in this world in her true form already marked a completely different path, making her irreconcilable with the Flame Haze.

"Now comes the real 'vastness,' so enjoy it to the fullest! From this moment on, this place will become the 'Fountain of Existence.'"

Bellpeor made no attempt to conceal her purpose, and Lin Yu vaguely understood what was going on.

Was I the target all along?

Lin Yu looked at his chest and smiled bitterly. It seemed that the little gift Gaia and Alaya had given him had brought him a lot of trouble!

"Understood." Kamsin, who had been expressionless, said calmly, "Since the target is the Lost Child of Zero Hour, then let's fight."

Raising the massive metal rod standing on the ground, Kamsin declared his battle cry without hesitation. Given the current situation, there was no other choice. However, the decisiveness hidden beneath his boyish appearance still left Lin Yu somewhat bewildered.

"That's exactly what I've been waiting to hear!"

Seven Sins' body floated slightly, flames radiating seven colors swirling around him. Margery Daw had already donned the Flame Robe 'Toga', Shana kicked off her clogs that made movement difficult, took the vampire from the Flame Haze's black 'Night Hat' and handed it to Lin Yu, while she herself held the Nietono Shōna, ready for battle. The battle between the two sides was about to begin!

“My battles are more tumultuous,” Kamsin said expressionlessly. “You probably don’t want to fight me either.”

After Kamsin said that, Shudnan nodded helplessly. They all knew very well how big of a commotion this oldest Flame Haze warrior could make when he fought. If they didn't want to be accidentally injured, it was better to fight one-on-one from a distance. Otherwise, if Lin Yu died by accident, where would they find Zero Time Lost Child?

Just as Kamsin was about to leave with Shudnan, a pleased smile suddenly appeared on Seven Sins' face.

Puff!

The sound of a sharp blade piercing a human body was particularly jarring in the sealed space. Crimson blood splattered everywhere. Shana, her eyes filled with disbelief, turned to look at Yoshida Kazumi, whom she had been protecting, who was now holding a sharp fruit knife and had plunged it into the back of her petite body. Even a Flame Haze would surely die if her heart was pierced, but Yoshida Kazumi's blood-stained face was filled with a gleeful smile...

049. Caught off guard

"Do not!!!!"

Lin Yu's eyes instantly turned blood red, and his unactivated Eye of Calamity emitted a dazzling golden light. However, before he could make a move, Seven Sins, who had been preparing for a long time, suddenly controlled the seven-colored flames and enveloped Lin Yu.

"The Seven Deadly Sins!!!!!"

Such a swift reaction, Yoshida Kazumi's unusual sneak attack—everything seemed to become clear.

"Die!!"

Unleashing a torrent of ice flames without reservation, Lin Yu's almost crazed expression only made Qi Zui laugh even harder.

"You're the one who should die, die from your anger!"

Lin Yu had no time to analyze the future he saw in the Eye of Calamity. When the seven-colored flames passed straight through the ice flames and enveloped him, Lin Yu couldn't even put up a fight.

Jingle Bell!

The sound of chains grinding together rang out. Bellpeor, who had been silent until now, manipulated the chains in her hands to wrap around Lin Yu's body. Despite being an enemy, she saved Lin Yu at the critical moment.

No, it's not about saving!

"I knew you had something going on."

The vast difference in strength, coupled with the influence of emotions, meant that Lin Yu was almost powerless against Bellpeor and fainted. Bellpeor seemed to have everything under control, and the series of events left Margery Daw and Kamsin with no time to react before the matter was almost over.

"Your goal is probably to kill him, right? But judging from your appearance, you're not from the Flame Haze side. I'm really curious who you are."
