The thunder dragon rushed towards Absoud, who had swallowed it at first. Absoud opened his mouth again, intending to swallow the thunder dragon whole.

The Thunder Dragon was slightly absorbed, but this time was different from before. The Azure Dragon flew out from behind the Thunder Dragon and used karma fire to melt Yabusode who was confronting the Thunder Dragon.

“Gahhhhhhh!!”

The shell melted alive, and Abuso screamed in agony. The Thunder Dragon ignored the magic that had been removed and began hunting its next target.

The Thunder Dragon roared, opened its maw, and devoured the Absode, using the scorching heat of the lightning to reduce its body to ash.

In addition, a little further away, the ice dragon froze Absode, and the stone dragon petrified the surrounding area.

After being rescued by the Thunder Dragon, Lanlong used the wind blades stored in his body to cut all the monsters except Absode into pieces.

Even for Yue, using the Five Heavenly Dragons might still be a bit of a stretch. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her shoulders rose and fell slightly as she gasped for breath.

Seeing this, Fried immediately ordered the gray dragon to attack.

Yue recalls the five heavenly dragons.

She commanded the five celestial dragons, who were the embodiment of nature, while Fried led the gray dragons, who were the embodiment of the aurora, and the two clashed fiercely.

The gray dragons were powerless to resist and became food for the five celestial dragons, revealing the power gap between Fried and Yue.

Fried finally understood.

His opponent was a terrifying monster. Not only was he the boy who had severely injured him at the Gulun Volcano, but he also had to be prepared to die fighting the girl before him.

Before the battle, he arrogantly said that he would recruit Yue as his subordinate, but now Fried couldn't help but feel ashamed.

Therefore, the magic that was released next was truly Fried's full strength.

"—Turning down the laws of the crumbling world, the hammer of the giant, the roar of the Dragon King, the footsteps of the host, each one fills the world. What stirs and brings about the wailing is only the sigh of God! That is the sigh of God! You will be shattered along with despair!—'Shock the Sky'!"

The surrounding space vibrated violently, and the low sound was like the wail of the world.

Yue also knew the spell, so she heightened her vigilance and immediately prepared for defense. The incoming spell had too wide a range for her to evade, and her ordinary defenses wouldn't last even a moment.

Yue released the five dragons and gravity balls from guarding the satellite and immediately constructed space magic. She had no energy left to waste on other magic.

Just as Yue unleashed space magic at an astonishing speed, the space that shrank instantly exploded.

Space itself shattered.

The impact was so strong that it could only be described in this way. Even the remaining gray dragons and monsters on the ground were instantly shattered. The earth was bombarded and even the clouds in the sky were blown away.

——Space magic 『Sky Shock』.

A magic that forcibly compresses space and then liberates it to produce a strong impact.

"...Hmm, as expected of Age of Gods magic."

However, Yue, who was at the center of the impact, survived safely.

Although his clothes were torn in many places, his internal organs were damaged, and blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth, the damage was too minor as he was under the impact that felt like space was shattering, and those minor injuries healed in an instant.

Originally, that magic should have had the power to turn her into ashes...

Yue was only slightly injured because she activated the space magic "Illusion Prison" before "Shock the Sky" took effect.

"Illusion Prison" is a magic that immobilizes space. Used correctly, it can be used for both defense and to capture enemies, making it a very convenient spell. However, this spell is no exception, and its consumption of mana is astonishing.

Due to the hasty deployment, the space could not be completely fixed, causing Yue to be damaged. However, in addition to the body being repaired by "auto-regeneration", the clothes were also restored by regeneration magic, so Yue was completely unscathed both externally and internally.

While everything around her was destroyed, Yue, at the center, remained unscathed. Standing in the moonlight, her immense strength juxtaposed against it, she even gave off a sacred aura.

However, there was one person who did not doubt Yue's powerful strength, and he launched an attack from Yue's blind spot.

"I knew you could make it! You monster in the guise of a girl!"

Fried emerged through the space gate that opened behind the moon, riding on a white dragon and emitting an aurora.

Yue instantly "dropped" to the right, avoiding the aurora. However, in the moment of passing, she was unable to dodge the white dragon's open mouth, and her arm was bitten from the shoulder down.

Blood immediately spurted from the wound. The white dragon didn't intend to bite off Yue's arm, but instead used its sharp teeth to bite the tender skin, intending to emit an aurora from zero distance.

Fried seemed exhausted from continuously using powerful magic, but after being sure that he could finally kill her, he looked at Yue with joy.

However, the moment he saw Yue's expression, an inexplicable shudder ran down Fried's spine, and the joy in his eyes turned into fear.

Because a smile appeared on Yue's face, her mouth was shaped like a crescent moon, and her pink lips were particularly eye-catching.

Her smile no longer had the sacred aura it had just had. The moonlight shining on Yue no longer gave people a sense of solemnity, but instead exuded a kind of demonic beauty.

The evening breeze blew her beautiful golden hair, and between the gaps in her hair, you could see her sparkling red eyes. Her eyes seemed to be saying—

Did you meet me?

The magic of the Age of Gods was quietly chanted from Yue's mouth.

“—‘Bad Moment’.”

Let it collapse, the irreversibility of time.

Although it was not spoken out loud, Fried did hear the spell.

Then, in the night sky illuminated by the devilish moonlight, the screams of a man and a dragon were immediately heard.

“Guaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

“Gahhhhhhh!!”

Bailong was hit by a painful shock and this time he really bit off Yue's arm, but Yue didn't care much and manipulated gravity to rise into the sky.

After a while, her arm regenerated and returned to its original state.

Yue didn't even look at his arm, staring at Fried and Bailong who were bleeding and in pain.

"...How is it? Does the injury Hajime inflicted on you hurt?"

“Guuuuu! You! What’s this…!”

Yue smiled brightly at the moon with her back to the moon. Meanwhile, Fried gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, his eyes glaring sharply at Yue.

Fried and White Dragon were in extremely miserable conditions.

There was a hole in Bai Long's chest, the wound looked like it was burned, his whole body was bleeding, and he looked like he would fall at any time.

There was a cut on Fried's chest, the wound was bleeding continuously, his shattered left hand hung limply, and he was spitting blood violently, as if his internal organs were injured.

In addition, he had other wounds of varying sizes all over his body, which was truly horrific to look at.

Those wounds were all caused by Hajime and the others during the past hostility at [Gulun Great Volcano].

Regeneration Magic "Bad Moment" - It can regenerate the injuries suffered by the target in the past, and inflict the pain that has healed with the passage of time on the opponent again. It is a very terrifying technique.

From the very beginning, Yue intended to use this trick to force Fried and the others into a desperate situation.

This battle was pure revenge for Yue. Back at the Gulun Volcano, her beloved had been hurt. She was furious, but before she could retaliate, the man had escaped. She vowed that next time, she would give him a lesson.

Later, when Yue obtained the regeneration magic at the Melkine Undersea Ruins, he thought, "If I want revenge, I absolutely must use the magic of 'Bad Ke'," reminding Fried of the battle at the Grun Volcano. The morbid part of Yue's heart demanded this, so he could do nothing about it.

However, there is a problem when using this magic.

Regardless of whether it is direct or indirect, "Bad Moment" must touch the target within a radius of three meters, and the damage that can be regenerated is also proportional to the magic power, but Yue is not good at close combat.

Therefore, Yue was unsure if she could catch up with Freed, who was riding the white dragon at high speed, touch him, and then use magic. She originally thought that if she wanted to use magic, she would first inflict damage on the opponent and then shoot him down before using it.

However, before shooting him down, Freed and Haku took the initiative to touch him. So it was normal for Yue to smile, as she couldn't resist the urge to torture Hajime's enemies.

"With my current strength... I can't win? If that's the case..."

"...Don't even think about escaping."

Realizing he had no chance of winning, Freed gritted his teeth in regret. Just as Yue stretched out a hand, ready to kill him, attack magic from the ground rushed towards Yue like a torrent.

"Lord Fried! Please retreat for now!"

"We'll buy you time!"

Those demons were originally the ground troops that attacked the royal capital. They noticed that Freed was in danger and came to rescue him.

"You guys... uh, sorry!"

The demon who came to rescue saw that Fried and Bailong were covered in wounds, and his eyes were full of anger, so he launched a suicidal attack without considering any defense.

Of course, fighting spirit alone cannot kill Yue, but it can barely buy time for Fried to open the space gate.

Just before Yue's flaming spear was about to hit Fried and Bailong, they flew into the space gate and disappeared.

“…I’m in the way.”

After Freed escaped, the demons continued to attack Yue, shouting "How dare you hurt Lord Freed!" Yue looked down at them coldly and activated the space magic "Shock the Sky" that Freed had just used, blowing up the surrounding area.

Because of his anger, the magic power was excessive, but thanks to this, Yue wiped out the enemy in an instant.

"...Pfft! As tough as a cockroach."

Master Yue clicked his tongue unexpectedly.

There was a hint of anger on her face, and it seemed that she was still resentful.

Just as Yue took a deep breath and tried to calm down, a lively sound that didn't seem to be from a battlefield was heard.

"Miss Yue~ Is that guy still alive? If he is, let me punch him... Ugh, what's going on here? Is there some kind of natural disaster?"

With her rabbit ears fluttering in the wind, Xia stepped on the light blue ripple force field and hopped over like a rabbit, asking in surprise.

“…He escaped.”

Hearing Yue's unhappy words, Xia roughly understood the situation. She marveled at Fried's unexpected tenacity and at the same time comforted Yue with a wry smile.

After replenishing their lost magic power and exchanging information for a while, they saw an aurora and red flashes emanating from a corner of the palace.

The two looked in that direction in confusion, and then witnessed an incredible scene - a huge pillar of light descended from the distant sky, destroying the tens of thousands of monsters waiting outside the outer wall.

After a moment, Yue and Xia looked at each other.

“…It’s Hajime.”

"It's Hajime-san."

The two of them said the name of the criminal, and it seemed that they had the same answer.

"...Anyway, let's go to the palace."

"……Um."

Yue and Shia glanced at the vanishing army and the huge pit, smiled helplessly, and headed towards the palace where Hajime was.

Volume 6, Chapter 3: God's Apostle

Silver wings flutter under the moon.

But that was not for flying, but for shooting silver magic bullets full of murderous intent from the silver wings.

Silver magic bullets with terrifying continuous firing performance and power tore through the dark night at an altitude of 8,000 meters, turning into countless flashes of light and killing the target.

Countering the silver magic bullets were divine weapons that shone with crimson lightning. Every time the monsters that had crushed countless foes roared, the silver feathers that flew towards them shattered and scattered. With meticulously calculated trajectory, a single shot shattered several feathers, creating a hole in the wall-like barrage.

What you need at this time is the courage to rush into the cave. Only by rushing in can you achieve perfect avoidance.

“Aaaaaah!”

In this life-or-death struggle where both sides are risking their lives, an incongruous and lovely cry echoes.

The person who couldn't help but let out an inappropriate cry was Aiko.

The silver feather barrage unleashed by Noin, the "Apostle of God," rivaled Hajime's Majerai. Hajime, clutching Aiko in one hand, continued to dodge Noin's attacks by the merest fraction of a second. With Aiko held in Hajime's arms, she experienced her first aerial combat (human form).

"Teacher! Shut up! If you bite your tongue, your mouth will be covered in blood!"

"Even if you say that, I'll...? I bit..."

Hajime's advice was in vain, and Aiko immediately burst into tears. No, her eyes were already filled with tears the moment the aerial battle began, and it wasn't just because she bit her tongue.

Hajime knew Aiko's physical abilities weren't particularly exceptional, so he avoided any drastic action. Instead, he used "Instant Light" to dodge the incoming magic bullets with minimal movement. Even so, the intensity of the action was still far greater than a roller coaster, and Aiko was exhausted.

Even so, Hajime couldn't just find a place to put her down.

Since Noin showed no mercy to Hajime, who was holding Aiko, she might become a target the moment she put her down. Instead of standing in front of Aiko and fighting, it would be better to hold her and move forward together.

Besides, this situation won't last forever, and reliable companions should come to rescue you.

Hajime used his slug to strike Silver Feather, who was attacking from all sides again. While dodging the attack, he said to his beloved son, who had his eyes closed and was hugging him tightly:

"Teacher, hold on a little longer. My companion is coming over. As soon as she arrives, you can get down to the ground."

"O-Okay! But what about Nagumo-san?"
