With the ability to transform, I am a judge.

The long, razor-sharp branches swarmed forward, and Mayuri, instinctively going into defensive stance, clashed with the approaching branches using the power of death.

"Has self-awareness emerged? This is quite an unexpected troublesome matter."

Mio frowned, and the angel with its roots burst forth, instantly growing into a towering tree, its thick, shady branches crashing down.

In her dazed state, Mayuri had no choice but to fight back in order to survive. A huge black sphere appeared in the air, stood up, and transformed into a giant sword to shatter the branches.

Blazing flames burned on the sword, and terrifying lightning struck the tree trunk. Mayuri instinctively shouted—

"The Blazing Sword!"

Her vision was obscured by towering flames and lightning, her memory space shattered, and Kurumi lost consciousness as everything went black.

In the space ravaged by spiritual energy, the illusory mosaic figure trembled slightly, looking in the direction where Kurumi had disappeared, where there was no one left.

Mio narrowed her eyes. The plan was working!

……

……

Kurumi, who was still holding a short-barreled musket, was slightly taken aback and quickly moved away from Mayuri. At the same time, Mayuri, who looked bewildered, opened her eyes.

They exchanged a glance, both showing the exact same look of astonishment, only slightly different.

Mayuri still doesn't understand the meaning of her birth, or what it was all about, in order to fight against Mio, who is the Origin Spirit.

Kurumi was completely shocked throughout, and is now almost numb with shock. She even doubts whether she is a real spirit.

Mio and her sister are both devastating, and Mayuri can even blow up a city with a single sword strike, but she doesn't even have an area-of-effect skill.

"Mayuri, I'm sorry, I doubted you for a moment just now."

Having not experienced the heart-wrenching betrayal depicted in the original work, Kurumi, who is essentially a good girl and just occasionally a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), honestly apologized.

Mayuri's expression remained unchanged as she shook her head slightly to indicate that she didn't care, and instead gazed absently at the Tokyo Skytree constructed by angels.

"Hey, Kurumi, what did you see? Tell us about it."

Seeing that the current investigation had completely stalled, Nia approached Kurumi, whom she was more familiar with, and started a suitable conversation.

Kurumi glanced at the guy, then walked over to Mayuri without hesitation and shot Nia through her. Nia screamed and collapsed to the ground.

"Yoshino, why don't you come and experience it for yourself...?"

"Eh?! I don't want to! It looks painful!" (Panic-stricken. Limited to fourth-grade girls)

PS: 1. This is the second update today.

2. Taking online classes and waking up early every day has caused me to eat three meals a day instead of two, and I've gained weight...

Aaaaaaahhhhhh!!! What the hell?! It's just an extra meal!

Section 595, Chapter 633: Coping Strategies

Chapter 633: Countermeasures

"Let's discuss our next course of action."

Kurumi, now dressed normally, picked up her cappuccino and took a sip, looking quite relaxed.

The four girls were all extremely beautiful, which meant that even though they were sitting in a corner of the coffee shop, they still attracted a lot of attention.

The suggestion to come here was made by Kurumi, because when they were preparing to find a temporary place to stay, Kurumi couldn't move when she heard meowing.

Because the young lady's pocket was too powerful, Kurumi finally defied everyone's objections and came here to rest for a while.

Petting a cat during your break shouldn't be a problem, especially since this is a cat cafe...

"Through Mayuri's memories, I saw many incredible things, and some of Mio's situation was also revealed."

With her left hand stroking Aju, who was resting on her lap, Kurumi raised a finger and mysteriously moved it in the air.

Spiritual energy gathered at her fingers, and in a manner visible only to elves, she drew a word in the air.

"What Mio is planning to do is still unknown, but there is no doubt that she has become weaker, and Mayuri has obtained a part of her power."

After witnessing the full power of the Thunder Sanctuary's 'Blazing Sword', Kurumi has already decided that Mayuri's team has the strongest damage dealer, and there is no doubt about that.

Yoshino is also quite strong, but due to time constraints, she hasn't been able to master the Angel form yet; she's only just started using it.

Age is also a big problem; Yoshino, who is only about ten years old, is completely out of her element.

In contrast, Mayuri, who was less than a day old, was able to use angels very well, which was an innate talent.

Because Kurumi saw that the stamen of the split flower-shaped angel was a being named Mayuri.

"The Thunder Sanctuary is a degraded version of the All-Encompassing Sanctuary. I was born from Mio, but I cannot use the concept of death that the All-Encompassing Sanctuary possesses."

Mayuri clenched her fists on her lap. Even though Mio was weaker than ever before, she had no confidence in winning. Her angel was ultimately a degraded version.

Mio's "Hall of All Things" is so exaggerated that, to put it bluntly, if she were to get serious, even Yang Li would be instantly killed, with no chance of even managing to snatch a single strand of hair.

While the Thunder Sanctuary possesses an exaggerated level of destructive power—its 'Blazing Sword' at full power can cleave Tokyo in two—that's about all it can do.

"Perhaps it's because of the division of spiritual power. It seems that Mio did not directly split herself into three parts. Instead, she left the spiritual crystal part untouched and cut a small piece off the remaining part."

Kurumi picked up a spoon and drew lines on her cake, visually demonstrating the proportions and concepts.

After experiencing the burst of power from the 'Blazing Sword' and seeing how easily Mio dealt with it, she had a general idea in her mind that Mio still had a backup plan.

That's indeed the case; after all, even Mayuri's birth was...

"In other words, the combat effectiveness is severely insufficient."

Erya made her final summary, and the atmosphere around the table instantly plummeted to zero, freezing to an unbearable degree.

Yoshino instinctively shrank her neck, buried her head and finished her cake without daring to say anything.

After all, she hadn't seen Mayuri's memories and didn't have any information about the other three, so it was better for her to just observe from the sidelines.

"The center of this world, which was born from the pillars of angels, is undoubtedly the Tokyo Skytree, but Mio should be there too..."

If we want to resolve all of this, restore the world to normal, and thwart Mio's conspiracy, we'll ultimately have to confront her. But giving up now is not an option.

Even Nia's omniscient angel couldn't investigate most things related to Mio, which also had a huge impact.

If Niya's abilities are ineffective, is it possible for their attacks to be effective? Those are the Primal Spirits who bestowed power upon them.

In other words, if these elves are considered sisters, then Mio is like a mother to them.

Although Mio's angel doesn't seem to resemble Zafkiel, meaning Mio can't use Zafkiel, this bug-level angel, she is still incredibly powerful.

Perhaps the manifestation of angels varies from person to person, something Kurumi couldn't fathom, after all, she wasn't a scholar.

She only knew the surface of Kabbalah's theory, roughly knowing that there were ten particles or something, but she was completely clueless about the specifics.

The current situation is utterly hopeless. Unless other spirits are born and brought together to form a united front, there is little chance of victory.

Judging from the current situation, the difference between the ten spirit crystals that were separated won't be too great; in any case, they still won't be as good as Mio's...

"Actually, we have another way."

Mayuri glanced at everyone's expressions and muttered something that immediately caught Kurumi's attention.

In a flash of inspiration, Kurumi, with her brain that was comparable in size to Miku Izayoi's 94cm bust, thought of a possibility, which was also the only known solution at present.

Kurumi still remembered the words she heard, those murmured words from Mio—

'All eligible individuals must be converted into elves before my sister awakens, otherwise…'

"Mio's current goal is to create spirits. It's unclear what exactly she'll do with them, but probably only one person can stop her."

With a single, powerful stab, Kurumi smashed the cake in front of her into several pieces, sending them flying out in shock, all under the horrified gazes of everyone present.

Completely bewildered, she paused for a moment, then quickly bowed and apologized in one smooth motion, before starting to wipe her clothes.

"Uesugi Reiya?"

"That's right, that's the name. It's the name of Mio's older sister that we know so far, and it's one of the few pieces of information we have."

The towering, azure pillar of light seemed to appear before her once again. Kurumi, who had faced that god-level incantation, had deeply felt the deadly threat.

A regular spirit like her couldn't possibly withstand it; probably only Mio could put up a fight. It's understandable that Mio would be wary of her because of her own purposes.

After all, taking out the person who could most jeopardize your plans first would eliminate some of the uncertainties, wouldn't it?

"After we leave here, I will use the angel to check this person's information."

"please."

Nia and Kurumi exchanged a glance. Nia felt a little excited. She could finally be of some use. Her previous experience of hiding in the back and whining was simply humiliating.

Despite being an all-knowing spirit, Nia Honjo ended up being relegated to the sidelines, merely watching the show from the sidelines.

With beaming eyebrows, Er Ya felt an irrepressible excitement, sensing that she was finally about to rise to prominence.

"But there's still one problem: how do we break the seal that Mio set up?"

The atmosphere froze again. They were not in the same league as Mio at all, and seemed to have no ability to counter the seal, so they could only break it by force.

This exposes the biggest problem: Mio's strength is too great, and the seal she created may be too difficult for them to break even if they try to force it open.

2. Hmm~

Today I played Quantum Singularity and died at the final stage with two Wendy. I was less than half a health bar away from killing her, but unfortunately my main character, Seele, was out of health and got taken down...

I almost won. I cleared the level 25-55 range at level 40, which seemed pretty good, but unfortunately it turned out badly.

Fortunately, I came in first place. Looks like I'm pretty strong! Nursery Rhyme + Butterfly Dream is really powerful. I just don't know what the advancement zone is for.

Um-
