It was too late to immediately arrange a new defensive spell.

However, the attack was slow to arrive.

"what happened?"

The elf moved its cute little pointed ears slightly.

The sound disappeared.

She poked her head out slightly and looked forward from behind the layers of defensive spells.

Then her eyes widened.

"The world... stopped..."

This is the only description that fits.

No. Looking closely, I realized that only Hetty had stopped.

The slender figure in the pure black skirt was still half suspended in the air.

The multiple layers of techniques stacked up front and back were like the thickest armor wrapping it up.

Armor of this size is about to turn into an attacking shell, blasting Lily and the elf in front of it into ashes.

But the turning stopped.

The light no longer shines.

Just carving patterns in the air.

From the surgical ring frames in front and behind to Hedy herself, they all look like images from old film.

It was as if the attack was a product of another time and space.

"Could it be... Divine magic..."

The elf hurriedly turned his head to the black-haired girl who stood up weakly.

The girl had already put down her hand. Zhan Li's body was unstable and he was about to fall.

The elf hurriedly supported the other person.

I want to ask something, but I don't know where to start.

As if he could see the elf's confusion.

Lily explained in a voice so weak that she seemed to be about to fall asleep at any moment:

"Teacher Hetty, when you cast magic, it's very quick."

“…Huh? Oh, right…”

This is a speed that cannot be achieved even in theory.

Such complicated patterns would be impossible to construct successfully even for the most skilled magician the elf had ever seen without the help of gems, and it would take more than three minutes.

But that Hetty only took a moment.

"So, it wasn't cast manually... Heidi-sensei used this [world] as a carrier and used the contained spell. As long as you know the coordinates of the spell contained by the teacher, it is easy to crack it. Later, I injected a new layer of spell decree engraving into the [world], pointing to the same coordinates as the teacher."

"Is this the magic that seals the Eternal Night Fort?"

"So it wasn't my magic power that was used, but Teacher Heidi's own magic power. It's like the teacher sealed herself away."

Otherwise, how long do you think I have been planning to escape? How could I have gained nothing from the previous detentions by my sister? Lily complained in her heart, pulling the elf's clothes and trying to stand up.

"Time... I guess it will take until Heidi-sensei runs out of magic power. Let's go."

Lily pulled the elf and was about to move forward.

However, Lily fell to the ground after her shackled legs staggered forward a few steps.

"Hey, stop moving. I'll carry you... Wait a minute, but this is divine magic, right?! It must be divine, right?! It's rumored to be the half-authority of God..."

"Don't ask. Let's go. Otherwise the real master will come back."

The elf didn't dare to ask any more questions.

She carried Lily on her back and walked to the side of Hetty's image. It looked hard - the elf thought so and stretched out her hand curiously.

"Don't touch it. Otherwise, we will be sealed together."

"Whoa whoa……"

The elf hastily retracted his hand.

He just carried the weak Lily on his back.

The two petite figures continued to walk forward.

However, there was some hesitation in the elf's heart.

Am I releasing some unprecedented monster?

……

There is no strongest temporary obstacle here.

The escape of the two little girls can be said to be easy.

Soon we arrived at the entrance and exit of this [world].

There is only one last floor left before the two of them can get out.

"Injection... the pattern is..."

The elf recalled how he got in.

The same principle applies when going out.

The rotating patterns light up.

"Snapped."

"?!" The halo in front of the elf suddenly shattered.

Failed……

why?

"This shield...is different from the original one?..."

The elf's heart instantly turned cold. His voice even had a hint of tears in it:

"It's different from what we agreed... I can't get out..."

"use this."

Turning around, I saw another layer of gorgeous patterns on Lily's hand.

"Eh?……"

"When you came in, you scanned the world first and then performed a blind injection. You found the loophole afterwards."

"Yes, yes..."

"The coordinates transmitted in will undergo a modification transformation, and your detection did not detect this transformation. So your breakthrough should have failed. The loophole should have been a trap."

"…Then why?"

"I changed it before. Although there are only modification plates from the outside in, it should be easy to get in through that loophole."

In her usual weak voice, Lily explained:

"But I don't have the absolute coordinates outside... So even if I crack the modification method and invoke the teacher's exclusive authority, I can't get out. But it's different with you. You know the coordinates, right?"

"..."

"Give."

There was silence for a while.

The elf just stared blankly as he took the golden pattern from the girl's hand.

Inlay this pattern onto the gem.

crackle.

The world around me became distorted in an unnatural way.

The castle, the garden and the sky are like wallpaper that has stood the test of time.

Blown by the wind, they scatter with a rustling sound.

The gray, dark green, and red colors all turned into fragments and fell off.

"Out."

The tense heart relaxed. The elf who spoke aloud suddenly felt the body of the little girl behind him tremble slightly.

The elf turned around.

"Ah."

The black-haired girl's beautiful eyes seemed to be flickering with a faint light.

It wasn't the first time I'd seen those dilated pupils, beautiful as gemstones but also like those of a dead creature.

Instead, the pupils were dyed with colors and glowed with lovely vitality.

The elf couldn't help but be stunned.

Lily wiped the corners of her eyes with her thin arms.

"Out."

It seems like all efforts have come to an end.

Lily repeated.

……

"By the way, you haven't told me your name yet. My name is Ai'er, Ai'er Bernier. I'm an elf. What about you?"

"Lily...just Lily."

The little hand of the black-haired girl was placed on the little hand of the blonde elf.
