Neither Aoba Yamahara nor von Million noticed Elise, and even the mastermind of the Shark failed to notice her departure.

No, it wasn't so much that they didn't notice the person was gone, but that they didn't know about Elise from beginning to end.

So, when Elise escaped from her body on the edge of the night, none of them could find out.

"Whew, whew, whew......"

Elise's body was wrapped in a thin shield, something she had extended from her Soul Cube, a simple layer of insulation.

"Although it was a mistake not to bring out the Industrial Morning Star, it was fortunate that Xie Yan returned my own cube to me, which is not too bad." Elise thought to herself as she ran through the dead mass.

But it's okay.

Although there is no industrial Morningstar, as long as there is a soul cube, it means that she has infinite possibilities.

After all, now that everyone in Gear City is dead, she is already the number one mechanic in this world, and a half-baked mechanic like the Edge Long Night can't compare to her at all.

But Elise wasn't a fringe night after all.

Because there are many other things that can be relied on in addition to the Mechanic, but Elise is left with the Mechanic as a survival after the Edge.

But fortunately, she is proficient in this, so this is probably the only solace in this desperate situation.

"We must hurry to the castle tower." Elise's eyes stared in the direction of Egret City, and thought to herself.

Reaching the castle tower is her only goal at the moment.

Because it is the only gathering point of survivors in this land now, if even this last hope is lost, then this kind of thing of counterattacking the Abyss Realm can only be reduced to paper.

That's right, Elise intends to counterattack the Abyss Realm.

Because this is the only hope of reclaiming the Long Night on the Edge.

However, before she could act on this hope, she had to support the surviving forces.

……

Lorica and Concordia stood on one side of the balcony, wielding their weapons to deal with the fish that had escaped from Militus and Nightshade.

And Lubrum, who was plastering the runes on the wall, was the only defense left in the hall.

As for Hokusai, who was standing in the center of the hall watching all this happen, it seemed like an idle man who had nothing to do, as if this castle tower was not the castle to which he belonged, but the castle of the Kamisu Guild.

'Bang, bang, bang-'

'Hum-'

However, the few people who were fighting bravely did not care about Hikotsuki Hokusai's impassivity, but continued to do what they had to do.

"It's just a constant stream of these things!" Millitus quickly drained all the bullets in his magazine, and then immediately replaced them with new ones.

"Totally agree." The dark fireworks dancing in the flames also nodded, "If we continue like this, we will run out of fuel and bullets, and if I lose the blessing of the flames, then half of my combat power will be wasted, especially for these ...... Mosquitoes! “

"Damn it." Miletus's wrists were almost completely numb, and the over-continuous shooting and reloading had turned his hands into machines that only mechanically made repetitive movements, "Why did the edge of the long night leave at this juncture?" “

"Here we are." At the same time that Militus complained, Hikotsuki Hokusai also opened his mouth, which he hadn't spoken for a long time.

"What?" Militus listened to Hokusai's words, and he could only ask subconsciously because he couldn't think because of the battle amid the countless gunshots.

"Here they are." Hikotsuki Hokusai put his hand on the water moon on his waist, and his eyes became fierce at the same time.

"So what are they?" Militus's twin guns fired in quick succession, and his voice became irritable in the repetition of the killing.

"It's the strong." Hikotsuki Hokusai said lightly, and then directly pulled out the water moon in the scabbard.

Ah, that light that has only been seen once in a long time.

Although this light had been seen several times in the past two days, even so, when the water moon came out of its sheath, everyone present and the demon's spirit were slightly shocked for a moment.

It's as if time has stopped for a second, yes, it's like time has stopped for a second.

'W-'

And when the water moon came out of the sheath, Wakisha Tegurin was also drawn out by Hikotsuki Hokusai.

In this way, the two swords were presented in front of everyone again, and this was the first class of Hikotsuki Hokusai, who they had never seen before, as members of the Divine Habitat.

"Could it be that the strong man that Hikotsuki Hokusai refers to is ......?" Hanabi seems to understand something.

At that moment, the batwing demons, who had been looking at death as if they were at home, suddenly stopped their progress and flew back in clusters outside the balcony.

The batwinged demons suddenly retreated like a tidal wave.

Usually there will be a large number of trash fish retreating, either from their headquarters with an order, or some big man is about to appear.

And now it seems that this should be the second case.

'Squeak squeak-'

The cries of the batwing demons echoed through the outside of the castle tower with their wings, and even the tall building trembled slightly.

The batwing demons flapped their wings and slowly spread out beyond the balcony and formed a circle around the castle tower, locking the people of the city inside.

"We met again, I didn't expect you to be quite tenacious." Yamahara Aoba's voice came slowly from the air.

Her tone rose slightly, as if something happy had happened.

That's when everyone noticed.

From just now, the sudden ringing in the ears seemed to have disappeared at some point.

Lublum concluded that this must have something to do with the return of Yamabara Aoba.

At this moment, another voice came from the sky and reached everyone's ears along the lines of the pavilion.

"Because I'm on the same road with her, I'm here to make sure you can die here well."

Although this voice is much gentler and more elegant than Yamahara Aoba, the sense of intimidation and fear it brings is also incomparable to Yamahara Aoba.

That is to say, even if Yamahara Aoba has foul-level destructive ability, it is still not as good as von Million.

In the eyes of everyone, von Million seems to be such an existence.
