Their whereabouts are unknown. I apologize...... I didn't protect her...... ...... of them."

The light blue pupils flickered, Astarot said. A large amount of blood clots came out of her throat. She shouldn't be in a situation where she should be able to speak now. Just being alive is already a miracle.

"Hey, hey, Astarut!? Perk Points, Astarout——! ”

The ancient city called desperately in the ears of the artificial lifeform girl.

Sayaka next to him began to stop the bleeding for Astarut in earnest.

But the ancient city walked up to Astarut and pushed Sayaka aside in one fell swoop: "You get out of the way, let me come." ”

"What are you doing! Don't you know that the child needs timely treatment? But even so, the ancient city didn't react to Sayaka's words.

With his hand on Astarout's forehead, Sayaka felt a subtle fluctuation of magical power.

It wasn't the majestic magic fluctuations of the Fourth True Ancestor on weekdays, on the contrary, it was extremely subtle, and if you didn't notice it, you would even ignore it.

"What the hell are you doing...... Ahh

Saya Hua couldn't help but be completely stunned, she looked at Astarut in a daze, and she didn't even have room to speak.

"See for yourself."

Gucheng removed his hand, and Astarut, who had been placed on his forehead by him, had the wound on Asrutarut, who was originally extremely injured, began to heal in an instant, as if he had never been injured.

"This is ......" Saya Hua looked at the ancient city in surprise.

That's right, this is exactly the ability of the 11th beast of the ancient city, the white steel of the crystal. A few days ago, when he was fighting his uncle Oistah, when he was sucking the blood of Yukina, he didn't just master the lion's gold.

On the other end, there is the white steel of this crystal. However, because its ability is to restore things to their original form, it does not have the ability to fight.

So the ancient city did not summon, but this does not mean that the ancient city did not control this beast. On the contrary, he can command it as he pleases.

And just now, the ancient city uses its capabilities. Just let the time that has elapsed with Astarut go back to before the injury.

……

On the elevated light rail that weaves through the gaps between buildings, a teenager is running fast.

The uniform of the high department of Caihai Academy.。 Short lightly dyed hair, and a closed-fitting headset that hangs on the head.

Is that the fourth Allah? Akatsuguru's classmate, Kiki Yase.

"Ahh Why can't I use the sound barrier, could it be that bastard in the ancient city? ”

Because when the ancient city used the power of the crystal's white steel, he inadvertently let a trace of magic be missed, causing that trace of magic to reverse the time of the sound enchantment arranged by Yase to before the sound enchantment was arranged, causing him to fall into a bad luck this time.

Today's Hyunshin Island is a sunny day, and the wind is rarely calm. However, standing on the elevated road, there was a strong architectural wind blowing around him.

"I can't help it, I can only use this."

Yase, who said this, took out a few pills from his pocket. It looks like a cold medicine sold on the market, and it is divided into two color capsules. He put the thing in his mouth and chewed it roughly without even drinking water.

Kiki Yase is a special constitution known as sonic adaptation. It's not a demon, it's a human being. In simpler terms, it should be a superpower.

Yase's family is a large consortium with a profound relationship with the establishment of the Demon Special Zone, but it is also a family with many talents with special abilities like him. Jishu is also a person who is out of that specification.

Yase's hearing, which is expanded by a certain telekinesis, has a resolution that rivals that of sophisticated radar. Observation is made as if it were visual by sound waves. Using his strange sense of hearing,Yase opened a complete surveillance network in the Saikai School Park.,Monitor the situation in the school all the time.。 Gucheng is also one of the people who is under surveillance.

It's just the ability to absorb sound wave reflections - so even someone with excellent spiritual vision like Yukina Hiiragi can't detect Yase's surveillance.

But, of course, his "sound enchantment" also has drawbacks.

Just as a camera image exposed to a snatch will be exposed, an explosion of loud sound will destroy the "sound barrier". The vibrational waves emitted by the beasts of the ancient city have the power to tear the slender barrier into pieces.

Of course, the ancient city inadvertently used the power of the crystal's white steel to make his sound barrier nothing.

At the same time that Yase lost the sound barrier, at this unsuspecting point in time, the kidnapping of Blue Feather Shallot occurred.

"However, at that time, I will attack shallots. That bastard Garudsheh is quite a lunatic, too! ”

While shoving a few pills into her mouth, Yase whispered.

Just after the beasts of the ancient city had just unleashed that kind of magical power, Garud Xie and the others should also notice the existence of the Fourth True Ancestor. But,At that moment,It's also a fact that the security system of Caihai School Park had an unusual malfunction.。 Even if you have to risk encountering the True Ancestor, you have to put the timing of the kidnapping in front of you. This is no ordinary daring.

Yase was tracking the car of the Black Death Emperor with their shallots.

Yase used his body to track the car at high speed at nearly sixty kilometers per hour. Beside him was a wind blowing in the same direction with a speed of nearly ninety meters, and its speed made it possible to run continuously.

Although the flow direction of the electronic signal is different, the microphone and the amplifier are in principle the same. Yase's abilities are the same. The ability to "listen", which is usually used on the receiving end, is used as the transmitter to cause the atmosphere to vibrate, and now Yase is using his will to roll up a strong wind and freely manipulate the flow of the atmosphere.

Of course, this is not an ability that physical humans can use without paying any price.

The medicine that Yase swallowed was a combination of drugs that could temporarily increase his abilities. The side effects are significant, and there is a price to pay for an overdose. Even so, it must be relied on now.

"Helicopters? Are you going to take them outside Hyunjin Island......? ”

Discovering the destination of the Black Death Emperor's faction, Yase finally slowed down.

It is a helicopter landing platform for a private airline located in the eastern part of Hyunshin Island. Although the main business is aerial photography and sightseeing flights for tourists, it is also engaged in the airframe lending business.

Apparently on standby, it appeared to be in a flight possibility, and the helicopter carrying the strapped shallots left the ground shortly thereafter.

Out of the island, even if it is Yase's ability, it will not be able to track it. But—

"—can you pass it?"

Yase, who swallowed a large amount of the potion, plugged her ears with a headset and closed her eyes.

Enduring the sensation of burning nerves liberates the power. Yase's vision widened in one go, and he could see it vividly even from dozens of kilometers away from the sea.

Above Yase's head, a clone of Yase appeared hundreds of meters above the air. The vibrations of the atmosphere simulate the muscles and nerves and transfer their consciousness to the past. This is Yase's killer feature called "Heavy Gas Fluid".

Although the principle is similar to that of the ghost separation used by psionics, even if it is hypocritical, it has the ** heavy gas fluid, which can be conveyed with the same vivid image as the naked eye.

The destination of the helicopter in the ocean is discovered, but Yase feels a little confused.

"It's actually the base of the Black Death Emperor's faction...... What the hell is going on!? ”

An ironic-sounding voice came from behind Yase's main body for a split second after that.

"Sonic domination. Call...... Quite a rare ability. It seems that unlike the magic of the druid, it is the ability of the same system as the immortal path of the continent. ”

"What!?"

The disadvantage of Yase's ability is that during the period when consciousness is transferred to the doppelganger, the sense of the proprioception becomes extremely low. Reacts roughly to sounds, but doesn't know what the owner of the voice looks like.

Then Yase felt a huge burst of magic behind him.

It is an explosive pressure that rivals the beasts of the ancient city.

"What's going on, this power ——!?"

Yase's doppelganger is devoured and destroyed by a flash of magic. The block of airflow, which flew hundreds of meters above the air, was shot down from the ground by someone.

As the pain of the reverse current leaked a muffled sound from his mouth, Yase fell to the ground.

"No way. Why are you ......!? ”

At the figure of the man standing there, he was speechless this time.

The tall man standing in the background of the bright light (bei) smiled and snapped his fingers. Behind him swayed a huge mass of burning flame.

"I'm sorry. Now it's going to bother me for you to do something that bothers them - it's okay, it's not going to die. Probably. ”

Before the man's words could end, the Flame Serpent shoveled off the ground at Yase's feet. The rocks that had been scorched by the heat exploded and fell like an avalanche under the force of gravity.

Below is the surface of the canal that connects to the sea. Unable to make a scream, Yase was swept into the falling rubble, sinking into the foul water in the gorgeous splash of droplets.

……

Yukina and the others are now in a room with a plugged window.

This was supposed to be a warehouse for food and other things, but it was a cold room without even chairs. Pipes were exposed on the roof, and rust was on the floor.

Because they were brought here blindfolded, they were unaware of their surroundings. I'm afraid this is the basement somewhere. There was a slight feeling that the building itself was shaking, which may have been caused by a helicopter.

"Na...... Where do you think this is? ”

Sitting on his knees on the empty wooden box, Shallot suddenly asked.

Her expression was harder than usual, perhaps because she thought that Yukina and her abduction were her fault, and that she felt responsible. However, it doesn't look like it's in a mess.

"I don't know. The helicopter flight took about 10 minutes, so I don't think I should have been taken very far......"

Seeing Yukina's reaction, shallots narrowed their eyes strangely.

"Pretty calm, don't you feel scared?"

"Huh? Ah, no...... There is no such thing. Ah, the blue feather seniors are also very calm. ”

Yes, whispering so shyly, shallots looked at the side face of Nagisa who was asleep.

Nagisa still doesn't regain consciousness and falls asleep on the shoulder of Yukina next to her. She must have been too frightened to lose consciousness when she was kidnapped, at least that's what they thought. (Markne)
