The Sages Are Defeated; Capture Natsuki
Most of the scattered spiritual blood around seemed to be drawn in, and countless red metal blocks emerged from the soil. The person swallowed the sluggish Mercury Amatsuka and the Skull Staff into the liquid.
The color was no longer the pitch black of before, but a scarlet red like fresh blood!
That's the original color of the Sage's Blood!
Although he still lacks the spiritual power of a medium to return to his peak and perfect state, the power he has regained so far is already very satisfying for the sage.
After completely fusing these spiritual bloods, it finally regained its complete human form.
But not bloated as before, but lean and strong!
Every line on her body seemed to be a perfectly sculpted work of art, almost comparable to the body of Yotsuba Mahiro.
The only difference is that the sage is taller and more robust.
"Heh, I didn't expect the sage's true form to dare to provoke me."
A silvery laugh echoed from the void.
Suddenly, Natsuki Minamiya appeared.
This time, Natsuki Minamiya appeared not as a clone, but in her true form.
She changed her usual black gothic dress to white, wearing white stockings and white knee-high boots.
Even the parasol in her hand had been changed to a white version.
It must be said that Natsuki- chan, wearing white stockings, is less alluring and more innocent than in her black stockings.
It's actually more tempting now.
"Snort."
Natsuki seemed to notice his gaze and immediately glared at him, as if warning him not to keep staring at her.
"It's too late. It seems we couldn't stop the sage's revival."
"Hehe, what does it matter? I love this kind of entertainment. Don't you like it too, Great Alchemist Nina Adilard?"
Watch your words; this is not your entertainment.
"Yes, yes, I never expected the mighty witch Aya Sengakuji, to be such a calculating person."
Three different voices came again.
But this time the sound came from inside the monastery.
Gada, dressed in a pure white dress, slowly walked out, holding an adorable figurine in her arms.
The figure is clearly depicted as a blond foreigner, like a delicate and beautiful doll.
Beside Gada stood Aye, dressed in a black kimono.
"Why did you all come here?"
Mahiro covered his forehead, feeling a headache coming on, and decided to ignore the figure for now.
With just a glance, he knew that the figure's body was made of the Sage's Blood and that it was named Nina Adilard, definitely the one from two hundred years ago.
"We are only here to help you resolve the crisis of the spiritual blood," Aye said softly.
Although Natsuki Minamiya turned her head away without saying anything, her meaning was already very clear.
As for Gada, she said she was just there to watch the fun and believed that Yotsuba Mahiro could handle it on his own.
Only...
Can you help me solve this?
You're lucky if you don't cause any trouble!
Chapter 397 The Sage's Demise, Taking Down That Natsuki (5K)
"Damn it, damn it, damn it! You're all ignoring me again! Ignoring me, the most perfect being! You all deserve to die! All of you, die!!!"
The repeated disregard for his words finally enraged the sage.
At this moment, terrifying heat was condensing in the giant red mouth.
The intense flash of light turned their vision white, and the violent explosion shook the artificial island.
The object illuminated by the flashlight turned into black metal.
"Not good!"
Natsuki Minamiya and Aya Sengakuji's expressions suddenly changed.
Although she didn't understand alchemy, she could tell what the red giant was doing.
It aims to reconstruct the surrounding matter, and on a massive scale at that!
Natsuki Minamiya immediately sealed off the space around the monastery completely. Although she had lost the guardian's assistance, she was still capable of doing so.
Meanwhile, Aye quickly flipped through the magic book, constructing a barrier that imprisoned the red giant within.
"Your skills are mere trifles; you will all become a part of me!!!"
The sage roared loudly, and just as the ultimate light was about to engulf the heavens and earth, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the red giant.
"To become a part of you? Keep those dreams to dreams!"
The words were finished.
The magic circle in Yotsuba Mahiro's pupils Alpha Stigma Eyes, is reflected in every corner of the red giant, as if to completely envelop it.
Since her battle with the angel who descended from the heavens, Yotsuba Mahiro has felt a subtle change in her body.
It's certain that I've become stronger.
But it seems he successfully fused with divine power while in human form.
Moreover, the processing speed of the Alpha Stigma is now vastly different from what it used to be.
In the past, analyzing spiritual blood would have taken considerable effort, but now he instantly analyzed the material reconstruction power released by the Sage's Blood.
"Technique reversal!"
A dark, eerie light suddenly appeared in his hand, mingling with the light emanating from the red giant's mouth, like yin and yang, light and darkness.
Yotsuba Mahiro shoved the beam of light directly into the red giant's mouth.
In an instant, the flash of light vanished, like spring snow melting, leaving the sage greatly astonished. He had never expected such a strange thing to happen.
I never expected that Yotsuba Mahiro would be able to easily break through his alchemy!
"Let me see if you are truly immortal!"
A cube emitting a cherry blossom-colored glow suddenly appeared in Mahiro's hand.
If people from Lelouch's world saw this, they would definitely recognize it.
That is the energy core that powers Knightmare— Sakuradite.
Moreover, judging from its purity, the piece of ore in his hand has been refined and is the source of the Sakuradite Energy that powers the Avalon spaceship!
Without hesitation, Yotsuba Mahiro stuffed the Sakuradite crystal into the giant's mouth.
At the same time, with a wave of his arm, ripples spread through the space.
The metal giant in front of me disappeared—no, it didn't disappear, it suddenly moved into the sky without any warning, and there was no way to defend against it.
The Demon-Slaying Holy Sword in his hand changed its form once again, transforming into a CAD pistol shape.
Mahiro aimed his gun at the giant ten thousand meters in the sky and gently pulled the trigger.
"Material Burst" -- Activated!
Buzz--
Above the sky, a dazzling sphere of light suddenly appeared, instantly illuminating the night sky and every corner of Itogami Island.
It resembled a dazzling sun, and one could even see a strong distortion in space itself.
Many people who were unaware of the situation thought it was dawn.
The explosion generated a violent storm that spread outwards, as intense as a typhoon.
The tide near the artificial island was temporarily lowered by more than ten meters, creating an exceptionally spectacular scene.
The lingering energy waves spread across the sea, creating towering waves.
From outside the planet, one could clearly see a point of light gradually expanding and spreading, as if it had broken through the atmosphere.
This is all the energy released after the Sakuradite, an ultra-high-energy crystal, Decomposition.
That is, it was released into the sky by Yotsuba Mahiro.
If this were on Earth, Itogami Island would probably no longer exist by now.
A few seconds later, a deafening explosion, capable of resounding across the globe, shook the air and came from the sky.
The faint echoes of the sage's unwilling roar could also be heard.
"How is that possible?! How could anyone be more perfect than me?! I am immortal!!!"
These words became the sage's dying words. His red metallic body exploded into nothingness; he was utterly dead.
"Hmm~ What a beautiful strike." Gada stared at the fading light in the sky, finding it very pleasing to the eye.
"The Sage's Bloodline, is it all gone?"
Nina, in her figure form, was stunned as she was held in Gada's arms.
She couldn't believe that her proud work would be destroyed in this way, and she never expected it to be so vulnerable in front of this seemingly young man.
If I had known, why would I have sacrificed myself to the spirit blood and guarded it for two hundred and seventy years?
"Astarte, check the scene for any remaining traces of spirit blood. If so, have your familiar devour them directly," Natsuki calmly instructed.
"I accept the order."
The blue-haired girl, who seemed to appear out of nowhere, readily accepted the order, her bright, emotionless eyes beginning to scan the surrounding corners.
While Astarte was doing these things, Natsuki Minamiya came up to Yotsuba Mahiro and angrily slapped his arm with her fan to vent her dissatisfaction.
"You bastard! You bastard! You bastard! You clearly had the ability to directly destroy the spirit blood, why didn't you do that five years ago?! And why did you have to set your sights on my prison! What exactly are you plotting?!"
Mahiro didn't resist, letting Natsuki Minamiya slap him repeatedly, figuring he could retaliate in other ways later.
So he explained in a nonchalant tone:
"First of all, I only recently increased my strength again, so I was able to completely eliminate the spirit blood. If it were me five years ago, I wouldn't have had any other way to solve it except to destroy the Alchemical Core."
"Secondly, Natsuki you should know, I was interested in spirit blood from the very beginning, so the proposition that I should have destroyed spirit blood back then is simply invalid."
"Finally, you asked me why I had to go after the prison?"
"It's very simple. Because I like you, I want to release you and give you your freedom back. It's that simple."
A series of statements left Natsuki Minamiya speechless.
Especially that last, straightforward confession, made Natsuki- chan's whole body burn up, her face turning completely red like a steam princess!
"You, you're unreasonable! I'm ignoring you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Natsuki Minamiya vanished from the spot.
That manner was less like a normal departure and more like a hasty escape.
However, the awakening of spiritual blood and the alchemist's attack have finally come to an end...
Next is--
"Ms. Nina Adilard, aren't you going to introduce yourself? Or are you going to keep burying your head in the sand like an ostrich?"
Mahiro to look at the petite doll figure in Gada's arms, a mischievous smile appearing on his face.
He didn't know much about Nina, and he couldn't quite remember how she appeared in the original work. He only knew that she seemed to have some connection with Asagi Aiba and was definitely related to the unsealing of the spirit blood.
Now that he was in Gada's arms, he was also somewhat curious.
"What an impolite brat."
Nina frowned in displeasure.
Gada, who was holding Nina, was amused by Mahiro's words and giggled. If she was playing the ostrich, she wouldn't be wrong.
