This is not the date I wanted.

"Yoshino, are you ready?"

[Yes... no problem... I'll leave it to you, Miss Mengyue, Miss Yakuya...]

[Don't worry. Let the Son of the Hurricane pave your way.]

The geology of the land in this area is not very solid, and the tunnel opened by Yamai was soon filled with soil from the surrounding area. The underground facility passage must have been blocked by soil at this time. It is impossible to get close to Shidao from underground in a short time.

So this time, we have to attack from the air.

"At this moment, I will bet everything I have on this one strike—"

Chanting softly, Yejuya floated in the air not far from the helicopter, and the spiritual power in his body turned into a fierce and violent hurricane, wrapping around the assault rifle. Then, Yejuya twisted his body like an athlete preparing to throw a javelin.

"——Tear everything apart! Hurricane Knight——Piercer!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the assault rifle that fell out of his hand instantly turned into a swift gust of wind, falling straight down and hitting the spiritual barrier that enveloped Shidao. The violent hurricane tore through everything around it and opened up a passage.

"Zadkiel (Ice Golem)——"

Almost at the same time as Yakuya made his move, Yoshino fearlessly jumped down from the helicopter, letting gravity pull her body to fall naturally. The rabbit doll in her hand transformed into a giant snow rabbit.

"——Ice Armor!"

Then, the huge ice puppet gradually shrank while falling in mid-air, and ice-blue light wrapped around Shion's delicate body, transforming into crystal clear ice armor.

The passage opened by the Hurricane Knight did not last long. A huge amount of spiritual power soon poured into the breakthrough, and the size of the hole shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"—!"

Relying on the advantage of her petite body, Shion was able to break through the thick spiritual barrier at the critical moment.

The violent spiritual power was stirring in the barrier, just like being in a tornado with hail falling, and the energy blocks formed by the spiritual power hit Yoshino's ice armor with a ping-pong sound. It was just the aftermath, but it also brought unimaginable pressure to Yoshino.

defense.

defense.

defense.

The road leading to Shidao's direction had been opened up by Yakuya's Hurricane Knight, so Yoshino didn't have to worry about getting lost in this storm of spiritual power. All she had to do now was to use the remaining spiritual power in her body to defend without reservation.

boom--!

After passing through the thick spiritual barrier, the crystal ice armor turned back into a huge ice and snow rabbit again, and fell heavily in front of Shidao.

"This time... it's my turn to protect Mr. Shidou..."

Letting the "Ice Puppet" lie on the ground, Yoshino, who was a little embarrassed, leaned forward and approached Shidou's face.

"So... please... return to your original form, Mr. Shidou."

After uttering a small prayer, Yoshino and Shidou's lips slowly overlapped.

24 The Elves' Return (Part )

==============================

"Huh... Success..."

The spiritual energy in her body was definitely replenished and slowly left Shidou's lips, and Yoshino's cheeks felt slightly hot.

“Ah—Ughhhhhhhhhhhh!”

As if sensing the changes in his body, Shidou's struggle suddenly became intense. He kept twisting his body, trying to break free from Kai Yui's chains.

"Yoshino-chan, it's now!"

"Yes Yes!"

Yoshina's voice brought her back to her senses from the afterglow of the kiss, and she nodded quickly.

"Zadkiel (Ice Golem)!"

The temperature around them dropped sharply, and the frozen surface expanded with Yoshina as the center. The moisture in the air condensed, and the surrounding trees and rocks instantly turned into crystal clear ice sculptures.

Like a growing and climbing vine, the condensed ice crystals began to climb up Shidao's feet, and then continued to rise, completely freezing Shidao's body except for his head.

A little sweat appeared on Yoshino's forehead.

Although on the surface Shidou's actions had been completely blocked by her, she could still clearly feel that the huge spiritual power erupting from the other party was constantly trying to break free from the double restraints of herself and Yui.

"Ms. Mengyue...Mr. Shidao...has already stopped..."

[Very good! Yoshino, just keep restraining Shidou like this, and keep your distance to avoid getting hurt.]

"Um……"

————————————————I am the dividing line for changing perspective————————————————————

"The spiritual barrier is starting to weaken..."

Looking at Shidou who had finally stopped completely in the distance, Mengyue had a thoughtful expression on her face and whispered to herself.

After completing the sealing of the Yami sisters and Yoshino, Mengyue noticed that the strength of the spiritual barrier surrounding Shidou had decreased slightly.

(Is this a phenomenon caused by the unblocking of the spiritual energy channel? Or is Shidao's health getting better? I can't just relax.)

Putting aside unnecessary thoughts for the moment, Meng Yue continued to give orders.

"Origami, Miku. It's your turn next."

【learn. 】

[No problem, honey. Yuiya Miku, get ready to attack──]

(The next step is the key.)

Meng Yue couldn't help but swallow nervously and took a deep breath to keep herself calm.

The remaining elves neither have the speed and charging power of Yamai nor the strong defense of Yoshino. Although the strength of the spiritual barrier has decreased, it is still not something that Mengyue and the others can break into.

But, that's no longer a problem.

Yui's restraint and Yoshino's freezing pinned Shidou, who was running at top speed, to the spot. This was enough for Meng Yue.

"Come up, Yuiya Miku."

"Okay~ I'll pounce~"

Puff! A strange sound sounded in her ears, and she could feel the two lumps of size beyond her standard size behind her. Even Origami, who was also a woman, could not help but raise her eyebrows in surprise.

"Yuuyomi, please don't try to touch my breasts with your hands. If you don't hold on tightly, you will be thrown away halfway."

"Oh - what a pity. Let's wait until next time then."

Miku had a look of regret on her face, and reluctantly pulled her hand back, hugging Origami's neck obediently.

"Methratton (Angel of Extinction)——"

Using the little spiritual power left in his body, countless light particles gathered around the origami, forming a crown with multiple large light wings. Then, the wings on the crown spread out again, combining into two huge wings of light.

"——Tianyi!"

Immediately afterwards, Origami and Miku's bodies turned into particles of light and disappeared. At the same time, Yuiya Miku and Origami appeared in front of Shidou.

"Wow - that's amazing. It's here in the blink of an eye."

Miku couldn't help but exclaim as she watched the scenery around her suddenly change.

"…Yuuyomiku, hurry up."

Origami urged, panting a little. Teleporting such a long distance with someone had almost exhausted all her spiritual energy.

"Okay, leave it to me."

Miku nodded, got off Origami's back, and trotted to Shidou's front.

"Darling, your Miku. I'm here to save you now."

Miku leaned close to Shidou's face and kissed him on the lips. Then, at the moment when their lips parted, she extended her tongue and licked Shidou's lips all over.

"Thank you for the treat~"

"—!"

The moment Miku's kiss ended, Shidao's expression suddenly became ferocious, and the spiritual energy around him not only did not decrease, but became even more violent.

Feeling Shidou's change, Yui and Yoshino's expressions couldn't help but change slightly. At this time, Shidou was about to break free from their restraints.

"Don't worry, Darling."

However, Miku, who was standing in front of Shidou at this time, did not show any fear or retreat. She looked at Shidou with a sweet smile on her face.

"No matter what time it is, idols will never abandon their fans."

At some point, a silver-white organ appeared around Meijiu, and slender jade fingers gently tapped the keys of light. In an instant, gentle and peaceful music echoed throughout the space.

"Grabiel (Song of the Broken Army) - sleepsong."

"Well……"

The originally violent spiritual power suddenly calmed down. Unlike Yui Shino, the melodious music soothed Shidou's spirit and calmed the active spiritual power at the same time.

"Now is the time, hurry up, Miss Origami."

"..."

After glaring at Miku with some dissatisfaction, Origami walked up to Shidou silently and kissed him on the lips.

The moment she touched Shidou, a switch somewhere in her body was suddenly pulled open. Origami did not separate from Shidou immediately, but tried to go further.

[…What are you going to do? Origami.]

There was an annoying voice coming from the earphones, and Origami secretly clicked her tongue and replied with a righteous look.

"Pry open Shidou's mouth and stick your tongue in for an adult kiss. Since Miku has the right to lick Shidou's lips, I also have the right..."

【You come back! 】

Hearing Meng Yue's firm tone that did not allow for argument, Origami reluctantly let go of Shidao, looking hesitant. She deployed her own Angel of Extinction and teleported out of the spiritual power barrier.

But soon, Origami appeared in front of Shidou again, but this time, Nanashi was also by her side.

"oops!"

Nanashi slipped as she stepped on the icy ground without adapting herself to the situation. Fortunately, Origami quickly caught her and prevented her from having an embarrassing close contact with the ground.

"Are you okay?"

"Well, thank you very much..."

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Nanashi replied with a dry laugh.

"Seven sins."

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Origami suddenly calling her name, Nanashi, who still had a little psychological trauma towards Origami Tobiichi, couldn't help but stutter and answer.

"Come on, Shidou, please."

“——Huh?”

I didn't expect to be told so seriously by the other party. Qi Zui was stunned.

"I, I'll try my best..."

Turning her head away embarrassedly, Nanashi came in front of Shidou.

Unlike other spirits, the spirit power of the Seven Sins was completely used up when they attacked Shidao. So they couldn't help Shidao like the others, and could only wait until everyone completely suppressed Shidao before coming out to kiss him.

(Well... It's embarrassing enough to hide alone in a safe place. At least I can't hold everyone back anymore.)

With a bitter smile of self-loathing, Nanashi took a deep breath, quickly kissed Shidou on the lips, and then immediately distanced herself from him.

(Is this all right? Don't blame me, stupid Shidou. I had no choice! I had to kiss you like this because you didn't return my spiritual power to me. I won't care even if you accuse me of forcing a kiss on me when I was unconscious!!)

After giving himself a lot of excuses, Nanashi was able to calm his feverish cheeks.

"Haniel (the forged witch) - Kaledoscope."

The spiritual power in the body gradually recovered, and a broom similar to those in fantasy movies appeared in Nanashi's hands. At Nanashi's command, it transformed into an organ and key of light like Miku's.

"Sleepsong."

The same music overlapped with each other, and Shidou, who was still struggling, completely calmed down.
