After several days of fermentation, the major event that occurred in the Bosco Kingdom has spread to the surrounding countries.

Although the Posco Royal Family was the primary target of this incident, they became secondary after leaving the Bosco Kingdom. Instead, the complete annihilation of the Magic Council branch became the main attraction, drawing everyone's attention to the former.

Faced with this heinous incident, most royal families adopted a wait-and-see attitude, while the Magic Council branches in various places took immediate action.

Thus, elite squads belonging to the Magic Council set off for the Bosco Kingdom, attempting to investigate the truth behind the events. (Nonsense! If others could destroy the Magic Council of the Bosco Kingdom, they certainly had the ability to destroy them as well. How could these people not be nervous? Besides, if they let this go unchecked, where would they, the number one power on the continent, put their face!)

While Magic Council sending people to investigate the truth of the matter, Old Suo was also methodically carrying out his grand plan.

Four hundred years later, when Irene saw this Massive Magic Array again, the magnificent (and terrifying) scene from back then naturally came to mind.

"You bastard, is it really okay to do this here?"

Seeing Irene looking at Philiers not far away with a worried expression, Old Suo smiled and said, "Irene, the reason why the teleportation of Heradi and the others to the Spirit World four hundred years ago caused such terrible destruction was because too many people were teleported at once, and no one was in charge of the formation."

"But things are different now. We have plenty of time to bring them back in batches, and this time I will personally oversee the formation, so there won't be any problems!"

With Old Suo's assurance, Her Majesty the Queen felt relieved. She then obediently stood to the side, quietly watching her rascal busy himself. (Um... from now on, can we use "Queen" to refer to Irene?)

The Spirit World, the gateway to the human world.

Looking at the Brother-Watching Stone and Son-Watching Stone squatting by the dock, a middle-aged man with light blue hair asked another man in front of him, "Heradi, Diphiya, and Radel, have you been squatting here all day again?"

Hearing the voice behind him, Heradi then realized that there was someone behind him.

After seeing the other person's face clearly, Old Hertish hurriedly and respectfully replied, "Lord Hadessta, what brings you here?"

"Hehe! My silly girl has been out all day and hasn't come back. I was worried something might have happened to her, so I came out to look for her. By the way, you haven't answered my question yet!"

After being reminded by Hadessta, Heradi realized his rudeness. So he hurriedly replied, "You're right, Miss Diphiya and Lord Radel have been squatting here all day again."

"Sigh! We've been here for over three years. According to the Celestial Spirit, about four hundred years have passed in the human realm, but our leader still hasn't come to fetch us. How can we not be worried!"

Hearing Heradi's sigh, Hadessta nodded slightly and then advised, "Perhaps the brat and his crew ran into some trouble, which delayed them!"

If it weren't for their deep friendship, the difference in their social status, and the significant gap in their strength, Heradi would have jumped up and given him a piece of his Maruko. The only reason! Hadessta's consolation was so overtly perfunctory that Heradi felt his intelligence was being undermined.

Just as the atmosphere fell into an extremely awkward silence, a sweet female voice came from behind the two of them.

"Diphiya, Radel, Heradi, Hadessta, come back with me immediately! The Spirit King has urgent news for us!"

Hearing the call, Heradi and the others quickly turned around to check what was happening behind them. They saw a middle-aged woman with blue hair hurrying towards them.

"Wattster, what did you just say? (Hadessta)"

"Hurry back! The Spirit King has urgent news for us, and it seems to have something to do with that brat!" (Wattster)

"Whoosh!"

As soon as Wattster finished speaking, two near-light-speed flying objects shot from a distance, grazing past her and Hadessta's bodies, and then sped off in the direction she had just come from.

After tidying his wind-blown hair, Wattster remarked speechlessly, "Even if we're going back, there's no need to rush like this, is there?"

"Alright! Now's not the time to discuss this. Let's hurry back! Otherwise, we might miss important news!" (Hadessta)

Hearing Hadessta's words and thinking about the personalities of his teammates, Wattster and Heradi nodded in unison, and then the three of them headed towards their settlement.

When Hadessta and the others arrived, Diphiya and the others were already seated, waiting for the Spirit King to begin telling the story of the past! (Why the past? Because it has already happened!)

Seeing this, the three of them did not dare to delay and immediately sat down in their seats.

After the three returned to their places (is returning to their places a bit unlucky? Oh well! Let it be, I won't change it!), the Spirit King immediately began his narration.

"Everyone, I just got in touch with my old friend Sordil. He told me that he has finished dealing with the troubles in the human world and has also found a place to live, so he will come to pick you up soon."

Upon hearing the Spirit King's words, the people sitting in a row immediately cheered.

"Oh! Great! The boss is finally coming to pick us up!"

"Great! We're going home!"

"Oh! Time to go home!"

Looking at the cheering crowd, the Spirit King tugged at his long beard, then his eyes curved into crescent shapes.

"Hehe! Since everyone is so happy, let's hold a banquet!" (Spirit King)

As the Spirit King finished speaking, Kaisa, Virgo, and others carried in tables, chairs, and food, while the Nikora dragged ribbons and balloons to begin decorating the venue.

Soon after, everything was ready, and the grand farewell banquet, which was also a welcome banquet (the gentleman being welcomed had not yet arrived), began in a lively and joyful manner.

"Buzz!"

After passing through the spatial rift and stepping into the Spirit World, Old Suo exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! The Spirit King and the others are really capable! They transformed the Spirit World, which had no human presence, into this state in just over three years!"

Looking at the Spirit World, which has evolved from the primordial era to the modern world (the kind of scene Natsu and the others saw during the main storyline), Old Suo suddenly felt that all those awesome construction companies from his previous life were utterly pathetic.

Just as Old Suo was immersed in the wonders of the Spirit World, a series of noises entered his ears, pulling him out of his reverie.

"Huh? Virgo and the others are having a party... Wait! This looks like a welcome party for me?"

Upon seeing that the Spirit King had held a welcome banquet without waiting for him to arrive, Old Suo angrily complained, "That unreliable Spirit King started eating before I even arrived! How infuriating!"

"Hey! Slow down your eating, leave me some food, I haven't had my midnight snack yet!"

After letting out a loud roar, the spineless King Sordil hurriedly sped off towards the banquet venue.

Mmm~~ It smells so good!

After inhaling the aroma of the lamb chops, Heradi opened his jaws wide and took a bite of the juicy, delicious food in front of him, however...

"Splash!"

With a series of shattering sounds, Heradi's clean, white teeth came off his gums and scattered all over the floor.

At the same time, many other people experienced similar situations, except that what broke for them wasn't necessarily their teeth!

Just as everyone was bewildered by the sudden disappearance of their food and drinks, they heard chewing sounds coming from above.

After discovering the troublemakers' hideout, the victims exchanged glances and then unleashed a furious blow to the sky.

"Whoosh whoosh"

Multicolored magical attacks, trailing beautiful fiery tails, flew overhead with a sharp whooshing sound.

Ten seconds passed, a minute passed, three minutes passed, but the surroundings remained quiet, without the slightest movement, as if the attacks launched by everyone had vanished into thin air.

Just as everyone was filled with doubt and surprise, a burp came from above their heads.

"Belch!"

"This feels so good!"

Hearing the familiar voice, everyone hurriedly looked up and saw a silver-haired boy holding his round belly, smiling contentedly.

Looking at the figure that had appeared countless times in her dreams, Grandma Heradi said with tears streaming down her face, "Boss, you didn't have to do this to me the moment we met, did you?"

Upon hearing Heradi's words, the victims nodded in agreement.

"Hmph! Who told you to start eating before I did!"

Hearing Sordil's arrogant retort, Heradi and the others were speechless and continued to weep.

Looking at the lively and mischievous Sordil, the heavy weight on Hadessta five finally lifted from their shoulders. Therefore, they decided to stand up for Heradi and the others, and teach this impolite brat a lesson. (PS: Actually, they just wanted to beat Sordil up, to use the pain Old Suo felt, and the thrill they experienced while beating him, to prove they weren't just dreaming.)

(PPS: The reason for using this method is that slapping my own thigh really hurts and doesn't give me any pleasure; it's much more satisfying to beat up this brat.)

"Well, you brat! Not only have you made us worry for four hundred years for nothing, but you're also acting so unreasonable the moment we meet. I'll teach you a lesson!" (Hadessta)

"Hadessta, don't go too far, just beat him half to death!" (Wattster)

"Hey! Hold on, wait for us!" (Woodman, Gilkunis)

"Since you've all started, wouldn't it be strange if I just stood here watching? Fine, I'll just give you a few light punches too!" (Radel)

Upon seeing the five old men lose their temper, Old Suo turned and ran without saying a word.

"You brat, don't run away!" (The five elders)

"Not run? Only a fool wouldn't run!" (Old Suo)

And so, a unique six-person chase began!
