"Who ordered this?"

"You don't need to know this. My only target is the person behind you."

"Is your target Eve... If you're only level 34, you can go back."

Ella raised the Arrow of Fire, looking like she was about to cast a spell. Although he didn't know how Ella detected his strength, this action just met Tras's wish. No matter what powerful magic came next, as long as it touched him slightly, he would pretend to be seriously injured and flee.

Pretending to know nothing about magic, Tesla folded his arms and sneered - of course, in fact, Tesla had already activated the strongest defensive skills in his body, waiting for the next destructive magic.

"Hmph, you can try."

"Don't regret it."

"certainly."

"I'm going to cast an attack spell!"

"Mere magic is not worth mentioning!"

"Can you withstand fourth-level magic?"

"I came prepared."

"Don't regret it, okay?"

"certainly."

"Should I really cast it?"

“…Hurry up and do it.”

Although at first Tesla thought that the other party was stalling for time, when Tesla focused his attention on the arrow of fire raised by Ella, he found that there was no magic power gathered on the arrow of fire at all. In other words, the conversation just now was completely intimidation.

Not understanding why Ella did this, Trass frowned and urged Ella to cast the attack magic quickly.

"What's wrong? You're not attacking yet? Have you not learned it yet?"

To the demons, these words meant nothing but slander. The demons' violent magic power meant they could only use offensive magic, so if a demon warrior was told that he couldn't use offensive magic, it would be no different from an insult.

"...Humph, I'm the Demon Queen. Using offensive magic here might accidentally hurt others."

"Is there no single-target magic?"

After hearing what Trass said, Ella had a strange look on her face.

"You've been urging me to use magic ever since a while ago. Could it be that your earlier statement of being prepared meant you've set up a trap to counter magic?"

【Tsk. 】

Ella's words made Trass shout "Oops" in his heart. His performance was too obvious, so the other party mistook it for a trap. Once he had this impression, it would be almost impossible to get the other party to use offensive magic again.

"Should we change the plan? But the Demon Queen doesn't look like a warrior...Is it all we can do to force her to use magic?"

With determination, Tras poured strength into his legs, gripped the dagger tightly and took a step forward.

""puck"."

[Here you are! I see you've been searching for a flaw!]

Because the "Ice Ball" is not a powerful magic, it would be too strange to lose strength after being hit by just one "Ice Ball", so Tesla chose to dodge.

"To use something so ineffective—Ugh!"

Beyond imagination, the ice hockey puck, which could only move in a straight line, turned and hit Tesla in the face when it was about to pass by him. The unexpectedly intense pain even made Tesla unable to breathe for a moment, and he fell to the ground.

"Hmm... Is this enough?"

Ella hesitated for a moment, but Tesla got up from the ground again.

"It's not... over yet."

There was no point in running away like this. Tesla wiped the snow off his face. The attack just now was a little different from the usual hellish training and was not enough to affect his actions.

After reorganizing his situation, Tras chose to use the walls on both sides of the alley as a fulcrum and jumped towards Ella. His route became unpredictable. In this way, the Demon Queen had no choice but to use area magic - this was Tras's idea.

"Huh? Still feeling energetic?"

My ears caught the Demon Queen's questioning tone with a tone of surprise.

"Since you insist on attacking Eve, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Come on!"

As Trass continued to jump, Ella switched her weapon to the Pestle of Heavenly Punishment, and then a dazzling golden light quickly lit up on the Pestle of Heavenly Punishment.

[Is it coming?! Is this fourth-level magic? I have to pretend to attack too.]

From a stone wall five meters above the ground, Trass pounced at Ella from the air with a dagger at an angle. There was no doubt that such speed was not an act.

However, unlike what was imagined, the Demon Queen did not use any attack magic, and the golden light only merged into the Demon Queen's body - the previous one was completely a strengthening magic, but even so, Tesla could not change his posture here, and too obvious avoidance would only expose the matter.

"If you do anything bad to Eve, regret it in prison! 『Power Up』!"

Then, the golden scepter in Tesla's eyes rapidly enlarged, and at a speed that could not be followed by the naked eye, it sank into Tesla's abdomen with a cracking sound like armor breaking.

“Ugh!”

Explosive pain instantly surged into his nerves, and Tesla felt his consciousness beginning to lose control like a kite with a broken string, but Tesla felt relieved instead.

"Please end this quickly... I'm starting to miss my usual hellish training..."

thump.

As expected, Tesla fell to the ground.

Ella turned around and looked at Eve, scratching her head in confusion.

"I feel like something's a little strange about this. Is there usually such a clueless killer?"

"Don't worry."

"Even if Eve says so... Eh? Eh? Hey, wait, you guys!"

There was no time to react at all. Like a dam bursting, a surging crowd poured into the alley. In order to avoid these people, Ella took a step back, but was tripped by the unconscious Tesla, and fell to the side. In order to steady herself, she subconsciously grabbed Eve, and ended up falling to the ground with Eve. When she came to her senses, the scene had turned into a group of people watching Eve lying on the ground facing them - it was too ambiguous.

"Wait, things are not what you think—"

"The Demon Queen repelled the assassin for Saint Eve!"

"I'm willing to sacrifice my body to help Lady Eve block the attack!"

"You two must have a good relationship, right?"

"I think that's definitely the case."

"I've recorded this historic moment with my recording crystal!"

Although the tone of these people's voices was strange—more like exclamations than sighs—Ella didn't have the time to pay attention to it now.

“Let’s not talk about repelling it for now. No matter how you look at it, Eve is on top, right? And those exaggerated statements and recording crystals, stop it right now!”

However, with everyone speaking in unison, this protest had no effect at all, and Ella's voice was eventually drowned out by the crowd.

As for what kind of sensational effect this scene caused later, Ella was completely unaware of it now.

Chapter 5: The Peaceful Holy City and the Girls' Night Tour

*创世纪6187年6月2日 晚19:14分 圣都

It was June, and although it was not summer, the temperature was high enough for people to wear looser clothes. Since night fell very late, the streets were still bustling with people.

Just as Ella saw, the night in the Holy City was unusually vibrant. Crowds of people slowly passed by the street vendors, and the aroma of countless foods and seasonings mixed together, dyeing the entire Holy City into mouth-watering colors.

The group was walking down the street with Angelique running in the front, Ella, Lotte, and Eve tied for second, Camisia third, and Shen Gan and Iris standing at the end. Since it was a very ordinary night out, everyone was wearing casual clothes and was not so conspicuous.

Perhaps infected by this lively scene, Angelini's eyes began to shine like stars.

"Wow, there are so many people."

Angelica's praise made Ella close her eyes and puff out her chest, looking very proud.

"Hehe, am I right?"

"Mmmmm! Little Ella is amazing!"

"I remember it was Eve-chan who said it first, right?"

Iris looked at Ella, who was at the front of the group, with a look that said, "Is this guy an idiot?" Ella, noticing her gaze, scratched her head in embarrassment.

"That's true...but it's a little strange that Iris would come along."

"Of course, I wouldn't do anything to leave the group. Everyone's out together, but I'm the only one staying at home. Isn't that a bit too lonely?"

"I didn't expect you to be self-aware."

Raising one eyebrow, Fukagami looked very surprised.

"What does that mean?"

Iris followed up on Shen Gan's words.

"Isn't that clear? It's like saying you're not usually a loner."

"Huh? Aloof? I'm actually quite cheerful, so cheerful that I'd make Aira-chan say 'Stop? Stop!' huh?"

"How obscene."

A malicious smile appeared on Iris's face. Feeling a little awkward, Ella decided not to get involved in the quarrel between the two people behind her and focused her attention on Angelique, who was running in front and pushing through the crowd with brute force.

"Angelina, please don't cause trouble for others."

"It's rare to go out at night, and it's so busy, so I can't help it."

"I don't feel anything at all."

Fukagan sighed as if he was in great trouble, but Ella just smiled.

"... Fukagan used to go out a lot at night, so it's normal for her to not feel anything. I don't think it's anything to brag about..."

"Ms. Fukagan and Ms. Angeline's schedules are quite different."

Ruthie kept rejecting the calls of the vendors around her and smiled with her head tilted.

"Nocturnal and diurnal animals?"

"What should I do? I'm so moved by Angeline-chan's innocent answer."

There was a hint of crying in Iris's tone, of course, even Angelini knew that she was pretending.

"Angeline-senpai, if you're just comparing yourself to an animal, that's fine, but please don't drag me into this."

"Well, well, it doesn't make any difference. Speaking of which, I saw a picture of little Eve jumping on little Ella on the street a while ago. What is that?"

As she spoke, Angeline handed Ella a piece of paper about half a person's height. Just as she said, it showed Eve falling on Ella. From Ella's perspective, it was the same scene that was engraved by someone with a recording crystal yesterday, but it was more exaggerated - Eve was falling on her, and she was using magic to attack Tesla.

After unfolding the piece of paper handed to her by Angelini, Ella's face turned red in an instant, and then she crumpled the paper into a ball at lightning speed.

"Angelina, where did you see it?"

"Aren't they everywhere? Elves have very good eyesight, right?"

Angelica pointed to a wall nearby, and Ruthie walked up to it and looked at it privately. Just as Angelica said, these posters were posted everywhere.

"Wow, when on earth did Ella-chan do something like this? How bold!"

"Iris, don't deliberately lead the conversation into strange places! This, this is just an accident. After all, who would do such a stupid thing?"

Not only did he make a poster of what happened yesterday, he also posted the posters on the street, as if he was deliberately promoting it. You know, the distance between him and Eve yesterday, if the angle was subtle enough, it would look like they were kissing.

Thinking of this, Ella couldn't help but subconsciously look at Eve's profile, who seemed to have no feelings at all.

"Boring things? Is Ella-chan really annoying? She's perfectly normal."

Angelique blinked and asked in confusion. In her eyes, or rather in the eyes of most people, these were just good friends. Moreover, the battle was deliberately emphasized on the screen, so there was nothing strange about it. After all, Ella was the only one who felt ambiguous. Although Iris said so, she actually didn't feel anything at all.

Camisia, knowing the reason behind the poster, stepped forward.

"Princess, I must explain this to you."

"explain?"

"Yes."

Camisia glanced at the people walking around, and after confirming that no one was listening to her conversation, she spoke in a low voice.
