Beside Xia Yin, who was entangled, the space suddenly cracked a gap.

The gap quickly devoured Natsune along with the tentacles that bound her, and then arrived, and stood in the air next to Yakumo Mo, who was standing above the cruise ship, a gap opened, and Natsune appeared from inside.

"It's all right......"

Hugging Xia Yin's soft and slender waist, Yakumo lowered his head and asked.

"No, it's okay......"

The silver-haired girl whispered in response, and her body unconsciously rubbed into Yakumo's arms.

"Yakumo-sensei!" Seeing Yakumo appear, Ji Hiiragi Yukina was very surprised, for her who was not by her side and her combat effectiveness had dropped by several levels, it was too difficult to fight against this alchemist alone.

"Ji Hiiragi? Are you okay? ”

"Don't worry, teacher!"

"That's good."

Gently landed on the deck, and after handing Natsune to Ji Hiiragi Yukina to greet him, Yakumo Mo looked at Amazuka Mercury.

"Mr. Youkai, why did you stop me so many times? Isn't it a great joy to witness the birth of a sage? ”

"Don't you remember yet?"

Behind Yakumo Mo, Xia Yin suddenly asked at Tenzuka Mercury.

Because of Yakumo's appearance, Xia Yin seemed to have regained his composure, and his tone no longer trembled when he spoke.

"What?"

"I remember you and the people of the Abbey when you killed you."

Xia Yin, who remembered the situation at that time, instinctively leaned over to Ya Yunmo's side and leaned up to seek comfort.

"What a poor man, haven't you found out you've been deceived?"

"So what the hell are you talking about!?"

Maybe I really don't understand, maybe I understand but don't want to believe it, Tianzuka roared at Xia Yin with a fierce look, his eyes fierce, but there was a hint of imperceptible panic.

Xia Yin's head rubbed against Yakumo's arm. Then he looked at Amazuka with blue eyes, and continued to say in a flat tone: "What do you want to do after resurrecting the sage?" ”

"Needless to say! Of course I want to be human again! Let him bring back my devoured other half of my body!! ”

When it comes to turning back into a human, Amazuka's eyes are full of fanaticism.

"So, tell me, who are you? When was it born? How did you live until now? ”

Finally. Natsune threw out the question.

Looking at such a silver-haired girl, Yakumo Mo had a smile on the corner of his mouth.

On the other side, Amazuka first sneered disdainfully.

"Aha...... Needless to say? What did I think you were going to say? I'm—"

Then, as if there was a sudden stutter, Amazuka was stunned.

Touching his chest, Amazuka lowered his head, his blood-colored eyes wide open, trying to remember something.

[Anything is good...... Anything goes...... Come to think of it......]

On the other side, Xia Yin spoke again.

"The sage will not resurrect you. The reason is ......"

"Shut up ......"

“…… The reason is, you were never human! You are just an artificial life creature created by a sage, blinded by the desire to become human! ”

"I'm telling you to shut up!!"

Twisting his face, Amazuka screamed and rushed towards Natsune, his right arm turning into a sharp steel knife in a writh.

Waving his arm, the steel knife slashed through a silver arc and slashed at Xia Yin's head with a whistling sound of breaking through the air.

Standing beside Yakumo Mo, Xia Yin kept looking at the attacking Tianzuka mercury with a calm face. There was not a trace of fear in his eyes. The silver-haired girl believed—

"Ding ——!!!!"

The delicate folding fan, which seems to be fragile, stands in the way of the steel knife.

"Poof——!

At the moment of blocking the steel knife, Yakumo raised his leg and kicked Amatsuka Mercury in the chest. The powerful force directly caused his body to fly upside down, crashing into the mass of metal lifeforms, and then falling into the sea with him.

[I believe that if I stand by your side, I will not be harmed]

The tip of her nose sniffed lightly with the faint fragrance of lilies, and Xia Yin felt peace and joy like never before.

"Alright. Natsuin, go stay with Ji Hiiragi, I'll deal with this guy first. ”

Touching Xia Yin's head, Yakumo said in a low voice.

"Hmm."

With a seductive flush on her face, Natsune obediently returned to Ji Hiiragi's side.

◇

Turquoise clear waters. A disgusting layer of metallic liquid began to rise from beneath the water's surface.

The liquid metal floats on the surface of the water, eventually twisting to form Amazuka's body again.

"It's a bit of a hassle, but it's not impossible to solve your problems......

With a gloomy face, the voice of Amazuka Mercury standing on the water was no longer as tyrannical and crazy as before, but became extremely indifferent.

In his hand, there was a golden skull at some point.

"Click...... Click...... Click, click......"

The golden skeleton vibrated and began to make strange noises that sounded like laughter.

"Huh?"

Yakumo stepped lightly and flew into the sky again.

"That thing...... Is it a sage? ”

"Click, click, click...... It's too late. ”

The skeleton with a will of its own made a clear sound.

It was the kind of unpleasant voice that reverberated directly in the brains of Yakumo and the others.

"Don't just talk in other people's heads! You bastard! ”

The petal barrage appeared instantly, drowning Amazuka Mercury and the golden skull in his hand.

At the same time, the skull's mouth flashed with flashes, flashes and barrages intertwined, and the impact of the huge explosion even pushed the cruise ship on the side to distort the hull.

The atmosphere shook and the sea surface was blasted out of a deep crater, and then the surrounding sea water poured in, forming a terrifying whirlpool.

After noticing that the hull of the ship had not received much damage, Yakumo pointed directly at the cruise ship.

As if propelled by something, the cruise ship began to sped away from the sea.

"Brother Yakumo! Be careful! ”

Standing on the deck, Natsune shouted at Yakumo Mo.

"It's late! It's late!! ”

The sage let out an unpleasant cry again.

"Click, click, click, world, become a part of the whole me."

Huge clumps of "sage's spiritual blood" emerge from the sea.

It swallowed the golden skeleton in Amazuka's hand and finally acquired its full human form.

Become a giant with a body height of six or seven meters-

"I see, the real purpose of attacking this ship is the sea......

Yakumo stared at the huge humanoid shape, feeling the trace metal elements being continuously absorbed from the seawater, and snorted softly.

"How far can you grow after such a long time of absorption......

The amount of precious metals he had collected from the beginning of the voyage to the island of the String God should have been quite a certain amount - at least, as a tribute to the complete resurrection of the "sage".

In a few breaths, the length of the "sage" has reached more than ten meters high.

Although resembling a human in shape, his physical body has no eyes or ears.

The whole body is covered by smooth curves, like a sketch model placed in the art room. In addition, the silhouette made of the golden ratio makes it particularly beautiful.

It's just that, in Yakumo's opinion, this nondescript thing is extremely disgusting.

The golden glow churned like flames in the sage's bone-wide mouth.

"Click...... Click...... Click...... Stupidity...... Do you want to resist?,It's not completely saved?。 ”

The glow of the charged particles was released from his laughing mouth.

Pillow stone gargle -

Yakumo raised his hand, and the black gap that opened in front of him absorbed the particle light emitted by the sage.

Stone pillow flow –

Then, the white gap opened, and the ball of energy transformed from the absorbed particle light just now emitted and smashed into the sage's body.

"Boom ——!!"

Before the smoke and dust of the explosion had cleared, several beams of light shot at Yakumo Mo.

The sudden opening of the gap engulfed Yakumo's body, and then he appeared behind the sage.

With a "snap", the folding fan was opened, and Yakumo waved it at the sage's back.

The sea churned, and the column of water that rose into the sky swallowed the sage's huge body, and then condensed into a bewitching ice crystal lily in an instant.

In the ice lily, the sage's staccato voice was heard.

"I didn't ...... ...... used I'm the perfect ......."

"Humph!"

Yakumo closed the folding fan with his right hand and pointed at the sage, and his left hand lightly touched the fan bone.

"Perfect? In my opinion, it's just a defective product. ”

"Light, and the mesh of darkness."

Suddenly, the sky crisscrossed with beams of light forming countless geometric shapes, dividing the sky and the sea.

The ice crystal lilies, along with the self-proclaimed perfect sage inside, turned into pieces and fell into the sea one after another. (To be continued......)
