"Albert, I didn't expect you to be this lucky. With me here, I'll never let you suffer. Consider it repayment for saving my life last time!"
"Professor, we can fight side by side again!"
"Elder Sister, anyone who wants to hurt you will have to step over my corpse first!"
"You have to seize the Rainbow Holy Grail. This is our only chance at revenge! Even if I have to break my Void Wings, I'll make sure your path stays clear!"
While counterattacking the pursuers behind them with Sound Spells, Igula stared dumbly at Yinzhi up ahead.
Yinzhi held the Holy Grail in both hands. Her appearance had been reconstructed by starlight, and she couldn't make a sound. Logically, apart from running fast, she shouldn't have had any other abilities left. If she tried to kick, she might even fall and split her buttocks.
Yet Igula saw artificers voluntarily and bravely protecting Yinzhi, some seeing her as a close friend, some as family, and some as a confidante.
They weren't merely protecting Yinzhi. They were even willing to break their Void Wings to deal with more pursuers, all to buy Yinzhi more time.
It was precisely because of their "righteous courage" that Igula could protect Yinzhi while surrounded and intercepted by tens of millions of artificers!
Yet Igula felt not the slightest joy inside, only a thread of fear.
Igula had always thought Demons were called Demons because "only Demons could slay angels," and compared to a name, it felt more like a slogan declaring their resolve.
But now, Igula truly felt that Yinzhi was a Demon walking upon the earth.
No Spell Spirits, unable to speak—how on earth was she controlling other people!? Those weren't some foolish, ignorant masses. Every single one of them was a Saint Domain Artificer
