Chihaya Aine will not fall into the Shura field, never!

Ai Yin nodded, and then the five of them rushed towards the raging hot wind.

"So, Aine, what did you mean by what you just said? Does the wildcat have a way to break through that absolute heat wind defense?"

Lixi, standing at the very front, spoke up to ask a question.

"There's no need to worry about that defense. Lena's killer move can ignore any defense."

Aine explained.

"Fortunately, that thing was still a heart and didn't have a body, making it a perfect target for Lena."

mygo！！！！！：Chapter Sixty-Six: Piercing!

It is common knowledge that magic appeared in this world fifty years ago.

But to be precise, the history of magic is not that short.

Magic only appeared in everyone in this world fifty years ago when the Zero Beasts launched a massive attack on the mortal realm. Therefore, in the eyes of the public, the history of magic is only fifty years old.

In fact, magic has existed since ancient times, which is why so many myths and legends exist.

Once upon a time, there was a myth in a certain country called Celtic mythology.

There is a character named the Child of Light from Ireland, who is a disciple of the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom and received a spear of causality from her.

Lena's grandmother, Duzhu Shichuan, had spent a considerable amount of time in that country and had studied the Celtic myths about the Children of Light of Ireland.

The final result was the long spear magic device in Lena's hands.

Magical artifacts that have appeared in mythology or history and belonged to a particular person have been passed down by humankind. Nowadays, such magical artifacts have another name: Noble Phantasms!

However, since Rana is ultimately just a human, there are naturally many limitations to the use of her Noble Phantasm.

Following behind Aine and the others, Lena focused her attention, and the disguise on the magical artifact in her hand gradually peeled away, revealing a faint blood-red light.

With Aine and others guiding her, Rakuna only needed to focus her magic and fulfill her duties.

Lixi and Xiaodeng stood at the front to block the onslaught of the hot air, constantly moving closer to the heat barrier, while Su Shi provided cover fire.

Meanwhile, Aine, while wielding the Chains of Heaven, was also shielding Rana from the fluctuations of magic.

Although this is a myth belonging to humans, Zero Beasts, as enemies of humans, naturally have in-depth knowledge of human intelligence, not to mention those like Aisie and Dust who have been infiltrating the human world for who knows how long.

If they saw Lena, they would probably recognize the origin of the magical artifact in her hand in an instant.

Five minutes... Ten minutes...

Ai Yin and the others kept getting closer to Abassen's heart, while the others, under Fan Huiyu's instructions, intentionally or unintentionally distracted Duster and Ai Xi.

"Aine, that's enough."

Upon arriving at a certain place, Lena suddenly spoke.

"Alright, now the real battle begins."

Aine looked up at Duster and Aisie. At that moment, both of their gazes turned in this direction, or more precisely, towards Lena behind Aine and the others.

"As expected, it's still impossible to completely conceal it?"

Ai Yin shook her head with a wry smile.

"Everyone, the next five minutes are the most crucial."

"Ok!"

Lixi, Xiaodeng, and Sushi were on high alert.

After all, at this moment, the Noble Phantasm in Rana's hands has fully revealed its true nature.

The Zero Beast's physical attributes are different from those of humans. Even if its heart is pierced, as long as its spiritual power is not completely purified, it has the spiritual technique to regenerate its heart.

However, that requires you to have a body!

"I never thought that we would be the ones who get taken advantage of."

Aisie said with a cold laugh.

"What should we do?"

Duster smiled, seemingly unconcerned.

"I'll go, sister, you just need to hold off the others."

"Then come on."

Aisie moved like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, she shot out. The other mages immediately understood Aisie's plan. However, when they tried to stop her, a violent gust of hot wind suddenly rose up, completely blocking their path.

"Your opponent is me."

Even when facing numerous mages who had already achieved true form, Dust's expression remained unchanged.

Ai Yin watched Ai Xi rush towards her, and pulled on the Heavenly Chains. The Heavenly Chains rushed towards Ai Xi quickly, but Ai Xi's speed was far beyond the Heavenly Chains' movement speed. Her body moved swiftly through the gaps in the Heavenly Chains.

The enormous blade of light slashed down, but was blocked by the pitch-black hot wind.

However, Aisie's hot air couldn't completely stop Lixi's attack. The hot air was cut in two, but Aisie's hot air was too dense, so Lixi's attack still couldn't hit her for a while.

A beam of starlight shot out from behind Lixi, but Aixi smiled and swayed her body to dodge it.

"Your presence is a bit of a problem."

In his hand, a dark wind was gathering.

"not good!"

Lixi was startled and immediately understood Aixi's plan.

"Slightly, fly!"

boom

The intense heat hit Lixi directly. This magic was not intended to injure Lixi. Aixi understood that killing a fully-fledged magical girl was not something that could be done in a short time. Therefore, she only intended to keep Lixi from returning for the time being.

However, the moment Lixi was blown away, the Chains of Heaven had already bound Lixi to his body. But the impact on Lixi was too great, and Aine was taken away with him.

"Lixi, Anno-chan!"

Upon seeing this, Xiaodeng immediately deployed a huge protective magic circle behind Lixi, blocking the impact of the attack.

However, in that brief moment of inattention, Aisie had already rapidly approached Lena, triggering a trap that Su Shi had unknowingly laid out along the way.

"What a pity. If you were also in your true form, these traps could barely stop me."

Aisie completely ignored Su Shi's existence.

"You're not qualified to get involved right now!"

A dark, hot wind swept in, almost engulfing Su Shi and Le Nai.

Xiaodeng appeared in front of Su Shi and Le Nai, her arms crossed, her gauntlet-shaped magical device shimmering with light.

"The ideal city that is already far away!"

Xiao Deng's protective ultimate magic was different from the ultimate magic of other protective mages that Aine had ever seen. She truly and perfectly reproduced that pure white, radiant city wall.

"No!"

Seeing this, Ai Yin murmured, "The level of reproduction is so close that it reminds me of the magic of a classmate I once saw at the Royal Academy of Magic in London. But that classmate's magical artifact was a Noble Phantasm, which is why he was able to reproduce that once glorious city wall."

However, thanks to the little lamp, Aisie's all-consuming hot wind did not harm Su Shi and Le Nai.

Hot air blew past Lena's sides, and even from a distance, Lena could feel her skin temperature rising abnormally.

Fortunately, thanks to the delays caused by Aine, Riki, Kodama, and Suze, the preparations are already complete!

The blood-red spear flipped in Lena's hand, and then she gripped the middle of the shaft.

A crimson light condensed at the tip of the spear, distorting the air around it.

"Tsk, is it too late?"

Seeing this, Aisi stepped back, dodging Lixi's attack as she returned. However, there was no sign of anger or frustration in her tone.

Lena's right hand was taut, all her magic power concentrated in it, as if she were throwing it.

Legend has it that the spear, received from the Queen of the Land of Shadows, is capable of reversing cause and effect.

For all destructive magical weapons, the "cause" of thrusting out usually precedes the "effect" of hitting. However, this Noble Phantasm is an exception. It is because the "effect" of hitting the heart is a prerequisite for the "cause" of swinging the spear to attack.

Since the outcome is already predetermined and cannot be changed, any defense or avoidance, no matter what is done, is meaningless.

This is...

"Gae Bolg!"

mygo!!! Chapter Sixty-Seven: Playing Tricks

Abassen's heart, pierced by the crimson light, began to beat, then gradually ceased.

"Oh dear, the plan has failed."

Despite witnessing this scene, Duster's smile never faded.

Not only Duster, but even Aisie showed no signs of the frustration that should have appeared when the plan failed.

“Aine.”

Lixi appeared beside Aine.

"I know."

At this moment, Aine also couldn't figure out what Duster and Aisie's purpose was.

Clearly, their plan to liberate Abassen's heart had vanished.

啪啦

Fan Huiyu's joy at thwarting Zero Beast's plan had barely begun to surface when she heard this sound, as if something was breaking. And she wasn't the only one who heard it.

The pillar of light collapsed, and from within the shattered pillar of light, flames were born!

"Chief of Staff, thank you for your hard work."

Beautiful hands, embracing the heart!

She was a beautiful woman who appeared out of nowhere, like a treasure of humankind. Her white religious robes looked perfectly natural on her, and although her long golden hair was unkempt, it didn't look messy at all.

"From this day forward, Abassen's heart will become a possession of my great father, the Flame King!"

咚咚

Upon hearing the words "Flame King," Aine and Ronai's pupils contracted slightly, and their hearts pounded violently.

Because the Flame King had already met them two years ago.

Two years ago, the dimensional gate that opened in the live house brought down to the world through immense dimensional pressure. It was none other than the Zero Beast King, Serial Number 04, the Flame King!

"So, liberating the heart of Abassen isn't your goal?!"

Aiyin looked at Aixi, who was not far away.

"That's not quite how it works."

Aisie shook her head in denial.

"For my sister and me, it doesn't matter whether Abassen's heart returns to Abassen's consciousness or falls into the hands of others, as long as it is not sealed away by humans again."

Therefore, liberating Abassen's heart is also our objective. Of course, if we fail, we are willing to accept it as long as we are not resealed, even if it falls into the hands of the Flame King.

Flame King has a collecting obsession, which is no secret among Zero Beasts.

"Well then, everyone, I'll take my leave now. Thank you for your hard work in performing this stage play; I thoroughly enjoyed it."

Behind the Flame King's daughter, a teleportation magic circle appeared, indicating that someone was waiting for her outside, and it was a human!

In this way, the identity of the Flame King's daughter in reality is self-evident: the leader of the Zero Cult who has never shown his face and whose identity is only known to others!

"Stop her!"

Fan Huiyu roared angrily. Although he didn't know what would happen if Abassen's heart fell into the hands of the Chongling Cult, it certainly wouldn't be a good thing.

Almost instantly, all the mages rushed toward the Flame King's daughter, but it was too late. The teleportation magic circle had already been activated, and the Flame King's daughter's figure was gradually disappearing from everyone's sight.
