The Princess had no intention of arguing with the other party; she'd rather finish the match quickly, go back to get married... or rather, go back to play games.

Patchouli was indeed a powerful mage, skilled in Septimacy magic. She could use almost any type of elemental magic, and with immense power, she could easily destroy the entire Eientei.

But the Princess's ability was exactly the counter to her opponent's. She immediately activated a time barrier. In her eyes, Patchouli's hastily applied magical shield was no different from paper. Meanwhile, her opponent was practically immobilized by "The World." How could she possibly lose?!

Even if I, Houraisan Kaguya, were to do a commentary while simultaneously walking the runway and striking poses, I still wouldn't lose!

The Princess took out her usual weapon, the Hōrai Jade Branch, walked up to Patchouli, pierced her magic shield with the Hōrai Jade Branch, then dragged Patchouli to the bottom of the stairs below the stage, and then walked back to the place where she had been standing.

"Smack!"

With a snap of her fingers, the Princess resumed the normal flow of time and smiled, saying, "The outcome is decided; I have won."

"What?!"

The onlookers were also preparing to watch a fierce battle; after all, it was the Lord of Eientei making a move, so the special effects would definitely be better than before.

But to everyone's surprise, the Princess simply said "The World," snapped her fingers, and the match was over.

I think this is a case of deceptive advertising. If it weren't free, people in the audience would definitely have thrown things at the stage to express their dissatisfaction.

"I am--"

Patchouli, who had also heard the Princess's victory declaration, looked at her own location and was completely dumbfounded. What kind of magic or ability was that?!

He was still casting a spell when he suddenly found himself off the stage, and all the magic shields he had cast on him had been broken. What was even more amazing was that he hadn't noticed anything unusual or suffered any harm.

What a mysterious, terrifying, yet precisely controlled ability that is!

Houraisan Kaguya is terrifying!

Patchouli glanced at the Princess on the stage, who was smiling at her, and thought to herself:

"Before understanding the opponent's capabilities, you absolutely cannot become their enemy. You will be instantly killed, and there will be no chance of victory."

Aside from Mo Yi, who already possesses considerable resistance to time manipulation, who would have known that Patchouli was moved off the stage by the Princess?

Since she was being moved down, Patchouli naturally wouldn't be able to sense any residual energy fluctuations in the air, or suffer any harm.

"She just said 'The World,' I absolutely didn't mishear her—"

The young lady was also completely bewildered. It took her several seconds to recover from her stiff, maniacal laughter and return to normal. She then began to make exaggerated facial expressions and explained, "Stand, this is Stand Attack!"

"I never expected that Houraisan Kaguya would be a Devil Fruit user of the same type as Sakuya, and that she doesn't have Sakuya's limitation of being able to stop time and become unable to move things—"

"But--"

Remilia bit her thumb and muttered to herself thoughtfully:

"I must say, if I were to face you, it would probably take me quite a bit of effort to defeat you—"

"Unfortunately, you, the strongest in Eientei, have been replaced by Patchouli. Only one human with healing abilities remains."

"But why not send Hazama? He's also an ability user like Sakuya, and his combat strength should far surpass his healing abilities. Is there some secret I don't know about?"

A few seconds later, Remilia looked at Mo Yi, who was engrossed in touching the rabbit (healing Reisen), and said confidently, "But it doesn't matter. Under absolute power, all schemes and fancy tricks are meaningless."

Mo Yi: "..."

Faced with Remilia's self-amusing state, Mo Yi decided to remain silent—girl, whatever makes you happy.

Because Mo Yi also has a bunny girl who is even cuter than the vampire who is acting crazy cute.

"Mr. Mo Yi..."

"Sorry--"

'I have failed you.'

"Your safety is the most important thing—"

Mo Yi really doesn't know how to comfort others. Just like now, facing Reisen who feels guilty for losing the game, Mo Yi can't help but offer the same old comforting words.

"Besides, the Princess has already won; leave the rest to me."

After handing Reisen back to the Princess who had somehow returned to his side, Mo Yi laughed and said, "Thank goodness for that, otherwise I wouldn't have had a chance to appear."

"Um--"

Reisen originally wanted to apologize to the Princess, but when the Princess saw Reisen taking advantage of her unhappiness to act cute towards her Mo Yi, she directly used her time-manipulation ability to send Reisen to Yagokoro Eirin's medical room and locked the door for her.

"If you're injured, then you should rest properly."

This was the last sound Reisen heard, but

"Princess, I'm healed now! Please let me out!"

If you stay here, your master will use the excuse of treating your illness to feed you all sorts of new medicines!

Unfortunately, the Princess had locked the door, so how could she let a pet like Reisen get out and get in the way?

The final match – Mo Yi VS Remilia Scarlet, exuding majesty and crouching in defense.

Standing on the stage, Remilia held a bright red energy spear in her hand. Looking at Mo Yi, whose height was quite an eyesore, she said calmly, "Mo Yi, do you believe in gravity?"

Mo Yi: "..."

The opening was a complete shock; I never expected Remilia to be a JOJO fan too!

Mo Yi naturally knew how to match the other person's lines, but this was a competition, not a dinner party, so why should he go along with it? Therefore, Mo Yi retorted, "Of course I believe—"

"Besides gravity, I also believe in the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, and the electromagnetic force!"

Remilia: "..."

Oh no, what is all this?! Don't think I'm uneducated, you bastard!

"Everything in this world is in the hands of fate. Whether as insignificant as dust or as noble as an emperor, no one can escape the pull of destiny—"

Unable to understand the four fundamental forces, Remilia ignored Mo Yi's turn, maintaining her calm expression, and continued to boast, "Except for me, who is born with the ability to observe and interfere with fate, and is one with fate, therefore—"

"I, Remilia, am the Empress!"

Mo Yi: "..."

This is late-stage chuunibyou, or just 11th grade syndrome, right?!
