Chapter 43: The Holy Land: The Devil's Gate?

Nefters, Border, Elven Patrol -

"That's the human army!" the captain gritted his teeth and immediately gave a decisive order, "Prepare to open fire! Send out dragoons! Contact the rear fleet support!"

The elves also knew that the human invasion was imminent, so the border was strengthened, and even if the rear communication could not keep up, the front line could cope with the battle well.

In the face of the huge army of the human side, the elves are not afraid, the elves are much stronger than the humans, even if the elves and the human army is 1:10, the elves are sure to win. This is also the reason why Sakura wanted to go out of the city to meet the enemy in the first place, without notifying the garrison in the city, and those cannon fodder could only hold back. More than 200 elves are not enough to rival a human nation, but they are more than enough to push a city that is not a military powerhouse.

Neforts Capital, Adilou, Sewers -

"Now, why do you want to go down the sewer?" Sakura said angrily. ”

At this time, Bitashar is leading Sakura and Tifania from the sewers to the "Devil's Gate", or "The Holy Land of the First Ancestors".

"This sewer was designed by my uncle when he was young, and all the passages are imprinted in my uncle's mind. There is absolutely no conflict in walking here, and it couldn't be safer. Lukoshana replied.

By the way, Lucoshana and Arie also caught up and followed the others. As for Madav, he had a position in the army, so he was summoned by the army in the middle of the chase.

"Why did you two come along?" Sakura said to Lukoshana and Arri.

"First of all, I'm Lukoshana's fiancé and bodyguard, not with you. Ari said impatiently, "Lukoshana wants to ...... anyway I'm—"

"What's wrong? Just think of it as a newlywed...... The expedition is ready. "A forbidden place like the Devil's Gate is something you won't get to see in your life. ”

"What you wanted to talk about earlier was the newlywed 'trip', right?!" Ari said angrily, "Moreover, let these two demons go to the Demon Gate, do you want to destroy us!"

"The power of nothingness is terrible in your eyes, but—" said Tifania, "I swear, I will never use it to hurt anyone!"

Half an hour later-

Bitashar led the people to a gate with intricate patterns on its surface and said, "After this gate, there is a devil's gate above." With that, he put his hand on the door and used his magic.

"Huh?!" a look of surprise appeared on Bitashar's face.

"What's the matter, uncle?" asked Lucoshana.

"It doesn't seem like my ability to break the seal. Bitashar said.

"Well, I'll try. Sakura also put her hand on the door, "Projection・Beginning-Basic Skeleton, Explanation...... Constituent material, explanation ............ I can't break this seal, can I use brute force to tear down the wall? ”

"But," said Bitashar, "it will certainly cause a commotion on the ground, the outer perimeter of the Demon Gate is heavily defended, and although I know Miss Misaka is not afraid of them, I don't want to ............ if I can."

"So," Sakura thought for a moment, looked at Tiffania, and said, "Try it with void magic, okay?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know this kind of void magic. Tiffania looked embarrassed and guilty, unable to help when she needed to intervene herself.

"It doesn't matter. Sakura said, holding up her hands.

TraceAncestorofRoundMirror

After a burst of cyan flashes, a quaint round mirror appeared in Sakura's hand, the ancestor's round mirror was originally only available to the Void Magician and Misnitren, but after Sakura's own projection, and strengthened with Revis Rachel, why can't it be useful?

"There's a spell I've (secretly) copied, Tifa, put your hands on it. Sakura said, holding the mirror to Tiffania.

"Hmm. Tifania did so, only to see a flash in the mirror, and a blue light melted into Tifania's body, and Tifania seemed to have an epiphany, entered a state of selflessness, raised her wand, and began to chant ancient syllables: "your-Thurisaz-Ansur-Ken-Geofu-Myd-Nauthiz-Eihwaz-Jara-Yr-Eoh-is-"

DispellMagic

Expressionless, Tifania pointed her wand at the door, and a blue light struck the door, and the seal was removed.

"That's it, okay?" said Tiffania, turning back to her cute appearance.

"That's what it is...... In an instant, he broke the seal that even his uncle was helpless, indeed, it was a little scary. Lukoshana was a little frightened, but the excitement prevailed, she was a scholar and interested in studying this kind of thing.

"Is this a little scary?" Arri was also a little frightened, but he also came up with the idea that the power of demons was nothing more than that, and the chanting was so troublesome, it was completely unsuitable for the feeling of actual combat.

"Let's go. Bitashar walked in, and the others immediately followed.

I walked for a while.

"This is it. Bitashar paused in the passage and raised his hands, "O elven power hidden in the stone, I command you, according to the ancient covenant, to make a way and pave the way for us." ”

A wave of natural energy spread upwards, and the bricks and rocks seemed to come alive and moved out of the way. Yes, that's right, it's not just moved by magic, it's really alive!

"It's ...... I should be able to use it too, right?" Sakura felt the energy fluctuations in it and made a secret note of it.

As the bricks and rocks receded, an upward staircase appeared, and the people followed this step to the ground, where they saw a large tower, surrounded by a tall stone wall, and they were on the inner side of the stone wall.

"Is this the Devil's Gate?" said Lukoshana, her eyes lit up as she looked at the tower's massive gate. This is a forbidden place, and no elves can go to the inside of the high walls, except for the upper echelons of the council.

"We're here, Miss Misaka, Miss Tifania, what are you going to do?" said Bitashar as he turned to Sakura and Tifania.

"Let me see. Sakura repeated her old trick and put her hand on the door, "Projection・Beginning-Basic Skeleton, Explanation...... Constituent material, explanation ............ I see, to open this door, you need to explode, forget, purify, accelerate, and combine the four void magic spells that belong to different ancestral treasures, do you, you need to collect all four nothingness because of this, unfortunately, I'm going to take a trick. Tifa, I'm sorry, but I'm going to ask you again. Sakura picked up the mirror again.

"No, no, as long as people and elves can coexist peacefully in the future, I will do my best to do whatever I need to do. Tifania said, placing her hand on the mirror again—

“Eolh-Thorn-Feoh-Jarnsaxa-Os-Thorn-Ur-Yr-Rad-Peordh-Yr-Hagalaz-Yr-Beor-Nied-Is-Algiers-G-Wyn-Ken-Daeg-Lagur…………”

As Tifania continued to spit out the ancient incantation, an inexplicable wave spread across the door, and the door slowly opened silently, with an ominous aura rushing in front of her. What kind of holy place is this? It's a veritable demon's gate! (To be continued)
