Sayo Aika raised an eyebrow and said with a grin.

"Aige, you're not cute at all like this."

Chapter 654 Damn, high-tech egg-like trick, can't understand human language, huh?

"So Gwen, are you going to punish the unlovable Aiko?"

Sayo Aika blinked, her expression unchanged, still bearing that sweet smile.

"Phew—whatever. If you want to watch the show somewhere else, we can leave together. If you want to stay here, that's fine too."

But--

Can you really avoid having fun at this time?

Looking into those smiling eyes, Gwen spoke seriously.

Although, according to Gwen's observation, this Sayo Aika was not nearly as wicked as the one he remembered, she did seem to have some kind of amusing personality.

Even if the possibility is slim, Gwen needs to make sure that this Imperial Princess of the Root won't suddenly do something drastic to him.

"Is Aegean really such an unruly child in Gwen's eyes?"

Upon hearing this, Sayo Aika blinked, revealing a tearful expression.

No, you just need some education.

Of course, this sentence should never be said aloud.

"It's not that I'm ignorant, but rather that I was exposed to a portion of omniscience too early, which led to aimlessness and a sense of emptiness."

That emptiness in your heart may lead you into an endless abyss.

As a friend or tenant, I don't want to see that day come.

Gwen explained seriously.

Upon hearing this, Sayo Aika was stunned. She hadn't expected Gwen to reply like this. A strange emotion surged within her, causing Sayo Aika, who had been connected to the Root since birth and was almost omniscient, to unconsciously have her heart racing.

"Um...

I'll give it a score of 60 for now.

A moment later, Sayo Aika smiled, put her hands behind her back, and with light steps, her skirt fluttering like a butterfly, she arrived on the other side of Artoria, playfully winking at Ryougi Shiki—

"Shiki, I'm here."

Seeing that Sayo Aika had agreed, Gwen breathed a slight sigh of relief. Since there was no traitor within their ranks, Chaos was nothing to worry about.

If all else fails, he can just close the gate. If he can't close the gate, he can go to the other side and wear down Chaos, who only has 3% energy left after sending Zeus's fleet, and then teleport back through the system.

Gwen's gaze lingered on Sayo Aika and Ryougi Shiki for a moment before turning to Artoria between them—

"Well, Morgan, want to lend a hand?"

Before leaving the Fairy Country, Morgan placed a water mirror magic on Artoria, allowing her to see everything here through Artoria.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Morgan's voice rang out to the bewildered Artoria—

"Sure, I'll look for an opportunity to make my move."

"Then I'll have to trouble you."

Gwen chuckled softly, and seeing Artoria's panicked expression as if she'd seen a ghost, he smiled and reassured her—

"Don't be nervous, Artoria, it's just a magic trick Morgan has set up on you."

"Magic?"

Artoria blinked. Why didn't the magic she learned have anything like this?

Is the magic she learned the same as Morgan's?

After calming Little C down, Gwen looked at Macarios—

"Macarios, your sister and the others will also be transferred later, temporarily leaving this Lostbelt."

Although I will try my best to control the fluctuations of the battle, if any aftershocks reach that area, I'll have to trouble you and Adele to work with the others to hold them off.

Although they were chased by Zeus and reduced to a mere roadside figure in this Lostbelt, the siblings still possessed considerable combat strength thanks to their immense magical power and the short-term guidance of several Heroic Spirits from the God-Slaying Alliance.

"No problem."

Macarios, who had been somewhat dazed after Zeus's defeat, immediately showed a determined look upon hearing this.

"I will protect everyone with my life."

Gwen has already helped him fulfill a long-cherished wish that he himself could not accomplish even at the cost of his life, so he should do his best to repay him.

"Um..."

Gwen patted the young man who had been so full of bitterness and hatred but was now behaving like a baby in front of him, and finally looked at Seele, who was standing to the side with Demeter.

However, this time before Gwen could speak, Seele spoke up first—

"Seele will also protect everyone with Teacher Demeter!"

"Yes, but Seele also needs to take good care of herself."

Seeing Seele actually taking the initiative, Gwen with satisfaction, and finally turned his gaze to the sky, to the huge eye that was unfolding some kind of Force Field.

"Next, I'll try to communicate with Chaos. If I succeed, great; if not, we'll go to war."

What do we need to do?

Kiana stepped forward, but her voice, slightly hoarse, came from the Herrscher of the Void as she gazed at Gwen, her golden eyes flickering slightly.

"Together with Kiana, take Ritsuka Mash, and Shiki away from here, and then return here to prepare to fight alongside me."

Gwen looked up at the sky, and golden flames gradually rose from his body, a symbol of his Cosmo burning intensely.

"That's all?"

"Is there no concrete plan?"

At this moment Herrscher of the Void behaved as if she were a well-trained Valkyrie.

"Oh...

I'm not the kind of wise person who's good at strategizing; all I do is cooperate for mutual benefit and rely on sheer force.

So... after you come back, calm your mind, listen to the voice of your heart, and realize your own power.

Gwen chuckled, and as soon as he finished speaking, a flash of golden light, as dazzling as the midday sun, illuminated his body, which was now covered by imposing and heavy golden armor, becoming the only light under those destructive eyes.

"Gold Saint?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka instantly recalled Gwen's witty remark from before.

"It's Armor Hero."

Gwen smiled and corrected him—

"After all, there is no Goddess reincarnation here yet."

Of course, if things don't work out, Gwen will not hesitate to bring Sasha over to see if he can activate his Divine Cloth state with Sasha's Cosmo support.

As for having the Goddess herself take the stage...

Although Gwen thought that if Sasha were fully awakened and donned the Divine Cloth, she should be able to smash this weakened Chaos of another world with a single blow of her scepter, Sasha wasn't fully awakened yet...

Oh, if all else fails, there's always the Robin. She mentioned before that she'd caught the eye of Xipe from the same universe; maybe she can lure Xipe over from across the cosmos...

With various contingency plans in mind, Gwen took a step forward and arrived at the rift in the sky—

"Chaos, this is not your original universe, and there is no reason for your so-called Interstellar Migration Navigation Treaty to apply here."

If you want your civilization to continue, I can offer you assistance, but never in such a rude and disrespectful manner.

However, Chaos's only response to Gwen's warning was a cold and merciless broadcast—

"Intelligent entity, please close your eyes with peace of mind. All activities of all living beings will be forcibly stopped."

His enormous pupils suddenly lit up, and a purple aura of destruction completely engulfed Gwen's figure—

"Is it a common problem with your high-tech creations that they don't listen to people?"

Amidst the destructive purple light, Gwen, who was just a couple of words short of uttering something even someone who doesn't know Chinese could easily understand, abandoned communication and prepared to attack—

"Elysia, let's begin..."

Chapter 655 Eden Team Members: No one can compare to her command skills.

As an extension of the planet's sense of touch, Arcueid, the True Ancestor, possesses an ability called Event Storage, which allows Arcueid to collect things that grow on the planet's surface in conceptual or physical form. It can even confiscate all creations—Textures—that originate on a planet's surface.

Coincidentally, Gwen had spent a lot of time researching this ability while he was with Arcueid in that ambiguous and chaotic world of Tsukihime.

Furthermore, after being taken to the Cavern of Ryougi Shiki by Garan no Dou and returning, Gwen had more to ponder about his Light of the Mind—

After successfully creating bodies for Elysia and the others after awakening the Light of the Mind, Gwen believed that his Light of the Mind skipped the process and directly achieved the conversion of matter and energy.

However, Gwen's experience in Ryougi Shiki Garan no Dou, combined with the special feelings he had before awakening the Light of the Mind, led him to have new conjectures about his own Light of the Mind—

Simple matter-energy conversion is only the most basic application; the Light of the Mind is actually something higher... transforming the abstract into the concrete.

Just First Flame brought cold and heat, life and death, light and darkness to the chaotic world, making a world what it is, Gwen felt that the truth of the Light of the Mind was to be able to ignite light in darkness and create existence from nothingness... to create something from nothing.

Combining his understanding of Arcueid's ability to Event Storage with his own Light of the Mind, Gwen remodeled his Stigmata Space, separating it from the Caslana family's Stigmata Space and transforming it into something like a personal universe that belonged only to him.

Before leaving the Atlantic Lostbelt and heading to the Britain Lostbelt, Gwen took some time to return to the Honkai world and pick up a few people.

For example, Elysia, who arrived in this world before Kiana and the others, has been in Gwen's Stigmata Space, observing this unfamiliar world with curious eyes.

Seeing that Gwen's negotiation attempt had failed, Elysia was already on high alert, knew that things were hopeless. Even if she really wanted to exchange some technology with Chaos, she had to defeat him first.

"Indeed, just as you said, communication costs are often the most expensive part of getting something done..."

With a soft sigh, a gentle pink light enveloped Elysia, transforming her casual, girlish outfit into a Herrscher's Attire befitting the Origin Herrscher Herrscher.

With a light flick of her staff, a streak of pink light flashed as Elysia gazed at the glittering stars in the sky—

"Gwen, as you said, I will try to connect Mei and Anna's powers to you next."

In a world without the influence of cocoons, this would be much less of a burden on you, but it would still be extremely dangerous. Never push yourself. Helping this world is important, but you also bear the responsibility for the lives of billions of people on another planet.

"I will."

While burning his Cosmo to withstand the destructive beam released by Chaos, Gwen responded in a deep voice to Elysia's reminder.

"And what about Eden?"

When it comes to the ability to manage energy, no one can compare to her.

"But asking me to list nearly ten Herrscher Authority, Gwen, you really know how to make things difficult for me..."

Hearing the words coming from the starry sky, Eden, who was holding a Broken Blade in his hands, couldn't help but show a somewhat troubled smile, but there was no hesitation or retreat in his beautiful golden eyes.

"It's alright, I trust you, and we still have this knife. We can just use it to push the blade."

As Gwen finished speaking, the Broken Blade held in Eden's hand shimmered faintly, emitting a hazy light—

"Like tuning an instrument, adjusting the rhythm within those powers..."

"Hmm... then leave it to me..."

A few Space Jump were enough to send everyone who needed to be sent away to a relatively safe location far from the battlefield. Kiana returned to Olympus, which had almost turned into a white wasteland, only to find that the world was now shrouded in a dreamlike color of purple and gold due to the struggle between Gwen and Chaos.

"Could it be that Gwen and Chaos destroyed this World Bubble... or some kind of Lostbelt while they were fighting?"

Kiana was astonished to notice that even the tiny sparks from their clash, falling on the torn sky, slightly expanded the rift in spacetime.

"Hmph, what difficulty is there for him to destroy this insignificant world?"

Although Gwen berated her as a primary school student writing essays in a dark room, the Herrscher of the Void was still willing to acknowledge Gwen's strength.

"But Gwen will not use this power to destroy the world; he will only use it to protect it."

Kiana retorted.

"Hmph, there's a saying: 'With a sharp blade in one's heart, the will to kill naturally follows...'"

The Herrscher of the Void snorted softly.

"Was it a spontaneous desire to kill?"

Kiana made a comment.
