Bellpeor stared at the Seven Sins, whose expression was unpredictable, and said this.

"Tch! That's why I hate dealing with schemers like you the most."

Seven Sins looked displeased. Although his strength had been fully restored, he was not the type to engage in direct combat, so it would not be a good choice for him to fight the powerful Bellpeor head-on.

"Forget it, I was too hasty just now. All I need is for him to die. Now that he's in your hands, it doesn't matter anymore. Anyway, you won't team up with me anymore, so just pretend I don't exist. Now it's better to figure out how to deal with that destroyer!"

While they were talking, Kamsin had already taken action.

"The Dharma of Freedom: The Formation of the Bloodline of Qatari Practice".

'Unyielding Peak' Bishimot recited the incantation in a voice that sounded almost robotic.

"Expand!"

Kamsin used his iron pillar-shaped Noble Phantasm 'Megstor' as the core, and countless dark red beams of light shot out, ravaging the surrounding buildings into ruins.

"The Dharma of Self-Existence: The bloodline of the Qataris begins to harmonize!"

Countless ruins formed a colossal stone giant around Kamsin.

"Hey, hey, hey, if we don't leave now, things will get really bad!!!"

Cold sweat broke out on Seven Sins' forehead. His abilities were the least suitable for dealing with an opponent like Kamsin, who was extremely calm and had amazing destructive power. If he was not careful, he would be crushed into dust.

boom!

With just a punch thrown from a distance, the terrifying air pressure tore the earth apart. Kamshin's destructive power is absolutely top-tier among all Flame Haze warriors!

"Little Feather!"

Margery Daw used her magic to restrain the extremely abnormal Yoshida Kazumi. Shana didn't have time to care about the reason why Yoshida Kazumi became like this, and instead, she endured her injuries and wanted to take Lin Yu back.

"Are you stupid! There's no way we can save him in this state!"

Because Margery Daw was blocking her way and because of her severe injuries, Shana could only watch helplessly as Lin Yu was taken away by Bellpeor.

boom!

In order for Bellpeor to leave successfully, Shudenan had no choice but to fight Kamsin. Yoshida Kazumi, who witnessed all this, gradually lost her twisted smile and tears streamed down her face.

"Let's go, let's go. Fighting this destroyer is too much trouble."

Seven Sins let out a scream and vanished without a trace. Seeing this, Shudnan quickly withdrew from the battlefield. There was no need for him to fight Kamsin to the death. Fighting a Flame Haze of Kamsin's caliber when he couldn't use his full strength was just asking for trouble.

"I won't keep you company!"

With a flap of its wings, Shudenan's enormous body soared into the sky. Given Shana's condition, Kamsin did not give chase and quickly returned after releasing the Freedom Magic.

"How could this be, how could this happen..."

tick...

Tears fell to the ground, and Yoshida Kazumi had somehow returned to normal.

"What exactly happened to this little girl just now?"

No one would really blame everything on Kazumi Yoshida, except for Kamsin, who was unaware of the Seven Sins' abilities, who raised questions.

"It was that guy who used the seven-colored flames who did this!"

Suppressing the pain, Shana spoke through gritted teeth.

"That guy seems to have the ability to manipulate people's minds. I experienced that feeling of being unable to control myself during the last battle."

Taking a deep breath, Shana walked with difficulty to Yoshida Kazumi's side.

"Undo it, that effect has been removed."

Shana spoke to Margery Daw beside her, who hesitated slightly but still released the Freedom Technique.

"Shana, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. It's because of me that you got hurt and Xiaoyu was captured."

Yoshida Kazumi was already sobbing uncontrollably, but Shana did not blame her.

"You know what?" Shana looked up at the Star Palace in mid-air and said, "I was once ambushed by that guy with flames."

Yoshida Kazumi looked up in surprise, her eyes still blurry with tears, but at least her attention was temporarily diverted.

"At that time, I became arrogant and felt that I was omnipotent. I have experienced that feeling of being unable to control my own destiny."

His eyes, now completely black, met Yoshida Kazumi's gaze, his eyes filled with seriousness.

"So I won't blame you. Besides, it's already incredible that you were able to regain your senses at the last moment."

Only those who have personally experienced that kind of flame can know what it feels like. Shana could sense that Yoshida Kazumi initially intended to pierce her heart directly, but at the moment the fruit knife entered her body, she actually regained consciousness for a moment through her own will and managed to deflect the blade in time. Otherwise, Shana would not be just severely injured now.

"Shana..."

Yoshida Kazumi's anxious heart finally found some comfort, at least those she had hurt did not blame her.

"The most urgent thing now is to rescue Xiaoyu. Yimei, you should go back first. It's too dangerous here. We will definitely rescue Xiaoyu."

Although Shana was seriously injured by Yoshida Kazumi's sneak attack, she remained very magnanimous. Despite being constantly engaged in battles, how could someone as intelligent as her not see that Yoshida Kazumi liked Lin Yu?

However, Shana could see that Lin Yu had no feelings for Yoshida Kazumi. As a rival in love, she had already won. So, being magnanimous was no big deal.

Yoshida Kazumi's eyes dimmed slightly. Although Shana had forgiven her, as an ordinary girl, she was nothing more than a burden in this situation. It would be better for her to stay far away from here and be less of a worry than to stubbornly hold her back.

"I understand, we must rescue Xiaoyu!"

Yoshida Kazumi may appear weak, but she has a strong personality that doesn't match her appearance. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to remove the influence of the Seven Sins Flames all by herself. Since she understands that there's no point in staying here, she naturally won't force herself to stay.

"Little girl."

Just as Yoshida Kazumi was about to leave, Kamsin suddenly called her back.

"When everything is over, remember to help me tune this city."

Kamshin's seemingly calm words gave Yoshida Kazumi an opportunity to help. Her face, which had been tearful just a moment ago, suddenly broke into a bright smile, unlike a smile that was controlled by emotions...

050. The Fountain of Existence

"That's what they say."

Shana smiled wryly. Although she had been magnanimous in front of her rival, her injuries were real.

The Zanpakuto that Shana was using to support her body slipped from her hands, and Shana, who was already struggling to stand, fell forward. Just as Margery Daw was about to catch her, someone else was a step ahead of her.

"who!"

Margery Daw, who was subconsciously conjuring a ball of light to prepare for an attack, suddenly froze.

"Wilhelmina, the 'Master of a Thousand Hands'!"

Appearing before Kamsin and Margery Daw was a strange woman with short, cherry-blossom-colored hair and dressed in a maid outfit. Her delicate face was stunning at first glance, but her demeanor was subtly aloof.

"We rushed over as soon as we saw the area was sealed off. What happened?"

Although her tone was calm, those close to her would hear the worry and heartache in her words.

"Wilhelmina, Xiaoyu... Xiaoyu has been kidnapped by the masquerade ball, we have to go and rescue him."

The usually strong Shana surprisingly showed a helpless, little girl-like expression when she saw the person who hugged her. She looked like a lost child seeking help from her family. Her serious injuries caused her to faint in Wilhelmina's arms.

"Xiaoyu?" Wilhelmina repeated the unfamiliar name with some curiosity.

"Ah, Missis, who has the Zero Time Child residing in her body, is also a special existence for this girl."

Marcusias, unusually, didn't ramble on and simply told the truth.

"Let's talk about those things later. Right now, we need to bandage Yanfa's burning eye first."

Although Kamsin has the appearance of a young boy, he is actually the oldest Flame Haze who has lived for over a thousand years. Therefore, he is also the calmest one. There is no point in panicking now. It would be better to heal Shana's injuries first.

Wilhelmina nodded, picked up Shana, and took her to an empty room to bandage her wound.

"Don't worry too much, she should wake up soon."

As Shana's contractor, no one knew her situation better than him. Seeing that Wilhelmina was still worried about her, he comforted her.

"Ah."

Wilhelmina nodded slightly. As people who had raised Shana together, they naturally had no doubts about each other.

As Alastor had expected, Shana woke up peacefully not long afterward.

"Are you awake?"

Wilhelmina gently wiped away Shana's sweat from the pain with a towel, and Shana, regaining consciousness, sat up immediately.

"Xiaoyu! Uh..."

Because of the excessive force, Shana aggravated the wound on her back, and the excruciating pain made her petite body curl up into a ball.

"Don't panic, he is still being held hostage by the 'Starry Night Palace'."

Having been with Alastor for so long, Shana had become accustomed to listening to his contractor, Alastor, who was also like a father to her, and she quickly calmed down.

"I don't know what kind of conspiracy the 'masquerade ball' is plotting with the 'Midnight Lost Child,' but what bothers me is the words of the 'Judgment of Logic.'"

"What about Bellpeor?" Wilhelmina, who was not present, asked in confusion.

"Hmm, they said they wanted to make this place a 'Fountain of Existence,' and the characteristic of the 'Midnight Lost Children' is that they recover their power of existence every night, which means..."

Alastor didn't explicitly say what followed, considering Shana's feelings, but Wilhelmina didn't seem to care.

"Do you want to take advantage of Mistis's intentions?" "I'm afraid so, but what the 'Midnight Lost Child' recovers is only the amount consumed on that day. Considering how tiny Mistis's vessel is, that amount of existence power is really not much."

Wilhelmina hesitated for a moment: "In other words, it's not worth their trouble."

"Yes, that's precisely why we should consider the possibility of even bigger conspiracies."

As an ancient Crimson World being who has existed for countless years, Alastor considered everything very thoroughly.

"It's almost midnight."

With a slightly odd verbal tic, Wilhelmina spoke with a hint of worry.

At this moment, in the Starry Palace suspended in mid-air, the three pillars of the 'masquerade ball' gathered in a huge mechanical hall. Above countless rotating gears, Lin Yu was imprisoned like a statue.

"Midnight Lost Child".

The only one of the three pillars of the court who had not yet appeared, Hecate, the one at the top, gazed at Lin Yu and spoke slowly.
