Fanning the Flames

After Natsume emerged from the [Yellow Spring Realm] once more, he happened to witness the [Demon God Weapon Core Engine] self-destructing in a thunderous bloom at the center of the main battlefield outside.

After all, the battlefield's center was still quite a distance from the rear command center.

Even at the speed of light, it took a full half minute of flying at top speed to barely reach it.

"Just as expected!"

"The Otsutsuki Royal Family moved the Demon God Weapon's explosive core out."

The final remaining [Thousand-Lead Stone Fragment] was over there.

However, a new problem had emerged.

That was the very front line—the absolute center of the battlefield!

Even though a vast area had just been cleared out, it would soon be filled and swallowed up again by the countless warriors from both sides nearby.

In the heart of such an intense battlefield, even a [Demigod] who rashly ventured in could very well be overwhelmed by concentrated fire!

In short, there were pros and cons.

"Kuramitsuha, what do you think?"

Kuramitsuha let out a sigh.

Though she truly did not want to see Natsume take another risk, she still
