"Um?"
Hughes stopped what he was doing and looked toward the passageway with a puzzled expression.
A fast-moving figure ran towards him, and the familiar figure only deepened his confusion.
I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.
Sorry, you can't get through here yet!
"Hell... Sky... Roller Coaster~"
"What's wrong? I suddenly feel so sleepy!"
Hughes took out his baton, intending to use the flying car to intercept it, but just as he raised his hand halfway, his eyes involuntarily closed, and he fell asleep.
He only saw a blue figure quickly pass by him before collapsing to the ground, unconscious.
Without pausing, Mystogan swiftly passed through the amusement park and headed straight for the old king's conference room.
Edolas Kingdom Magic - Dragon Lock Cannon
This is a device used to unleash the dragon's Magic Power, but it cannot be used as a weapon at this stage.
"Your Majesty, this is the key to activate the Dragon Lock Cannon!"
Byro presented the king with a purple key with a dragon-shaped decoration, held in both hands.
"The moment has finally arrived, hahaha!"
Kingdom - Faust took the key into his own hands, his eyes filled with excitement for the eternal Magic Power of the future, his expression one of madness.
Even Byro, standing to the side, was filled with the same hope for the future, eagerly anticipating the king inserting the key into the keyhole.
"Bang~"
The door was suddenly pushed open, causing the two who were extremely excited to turn around in surprise, completely bewildered as to who could possibly be in their way now.
But when they turned around and saw the appearance of the newcomers, the king froze on the spot.
"Mystogan?"
How could that be?
King Faust's eyes were filled with disbelief and a hint of surprise, and his hands began to tremble.
"Stop, Father."
Mystogan held the Miko Staff in his hand, quietly awaiting His Majesty the King's reply, clearly unwilling to harm his own father.
However, in order to correct the wrong path that has been taken, necessary measures are also indispensable.
The rest depends on the king's response.
"Stop? No way!"
Upon hearing Mystogan's words, the king's eyes, which had initially held a hint of surprise, immediately transformed into a look of madness.
Finally, he looked up to the sky and shouted, "My final wish is about to come true, how can I stop here?"
"In that case... I'm sorry, Father!"
Seeing his father's frenzied state, Mystogan's expression also turned solemn. He gripped the Miko Staff tightly in his right hand, his expression gradually becoming resolute.
Even if you're my son, you can't stop it.
"Unfortunately, your Magic has no effect on me..."
The king's Scepter emitted a strange light, forming a Magic barrier in front of the two, resisting the Sleep Magic that Mystogan had just released.
"Lightning~"
The moment the Scepter struck the ground, several bolts of lightning surged forth.
"Triple Magic Circle - Mirror Water"
Mystogan casually tapped the air with his Miko Staff, and a water mirror instantly formed.
Just as the lightning was about to strike the water mirror, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Mystogan and grabbed the lightning in his hand.
They struck the water mirror together, carrying lightning, but Mystogan seized the opportunity to jump away and unleash an attack Magic in mid-air, striking the person.
"You... who are you?"
The king was about to take a few steps forward when he found a dagger pressed against his neck.
"I advise you not to move... otherwise, I can't be sure what might happen!"
A cool, aloof voice suddenly rang out.
At this moment, King Faust also suddenly discovered that he could not move his body.
"Damn it, I can't move my body..."
They could only watch helplessly as this woman picked up the key to the Dragon Lock Cannon.
As for Byro, he was already lying on the ground, his life hanging in the balance.
Seeing this, Mystogan dared not take any action.
The Miko Staff in his hand merely turned in a different direction, and at that moment, the dagger of the Woman who had been holding the king hostage was once again tightly wrapped around his neck.
Blood flowed down his neck.
Clearly, if Mystogan made any further unusual moves at this moment, the next second he might see the corpse of King Faust.
"Hateful!"
Mystogan's eyes were fixed on the dagger in the woman's hand.
When exactly?
They didn't notice anything amiss.
Had they already gone into hiding?
There's no other way...
Next...
While Mystogan was still thinking about his next move, the man suddenly rushed in front of him and punched him in the face.
Mystogan, as expected of S-Class Mage, reacted quickly, instantly deploying Defensive Magic to block the attack.
This reaction also triggers a man's belligerent mentality.
"Boom boom~"
A series of Heavy Punches landed on Mystogan's defensive shield, forcing Mystogan to take a few steps back.
The two were locked in a fierce battle.
"That third brother of mine, he's really something else, he's gotten carried away again!"
"Sigh, I guess I'll have to rely on myself!"
The woman, seeing that the third brother was getting more and more excited as the fight progressed, wasn't worried at all about whether he was a match for Mystogan, and simply reached out and grabbed the key.
The king remained immobilized, forced to watch helplessly as the woman was about to activate the Dragon Lock Cannon.
Although this was what he hoped to see, it was clearly beyond his expectations. He hadn't anticipated that there was such a group of people in the Kingdom, and he had managed to bring them under control this time.
Even the permanent Magic Power that appeared later had absolutely nothing to do with the Kingdom; it was completely under their control.
"Fivefold Magic Circle - Kagura"
After kicking the third brother away, Mystogan quickly used his Miko Staff to conjure five Magic Circles above the woman's head.
Five beams of light instantly slammed down, temporarily immobilizing the woman.
The key the woman was holding was now positioned directly above the keyhole.
The third brother, however, paid no attention to the woman who was sealed off. A glint flashed in his gauntlet, and he charged forward, throwing another punch at Mystogan.
Mystogan wanted to use his previous Defensive Magic, but as soon as he unleashed it, he was struck by the third brother's fist.
It shattered instantly.
"What!"
Mystogan exclaimed in surprise, quickly crossing his hands and covering them with Armament Haki.
However, his figure still flew backward.
This shows how powerful the third brother was.
What surprised Mystogan even more was that the woman who was sealed up actually moved.
Slowly insert the key into the hole and gently turn it.
A surge of energy erupted, spreading outwards in waves.
"How is this possible? It actually broke free from my Magic!"
Mystogan stared blankly at the retreating figure of the woman who was laughing loudly, and murmured to himself.
