Zarathustra showed no surprise at the attacks from Ludwig, the Male Jenna, and the Female Anthony.

His body, hidden beneath his black suit, suddenly disintegrated, his face shrinking into a Gloom Whirlpool.

If you look closely at this Whirlpool, you'll see countless transparent Insects wriggling wildly, as if they're crawling into the minds and bodies of those who witness it, devouring their thoughts and nerves.

From within the Sleeve and trouser legs of the black suit, Slippery Tentacles covered in Evil patterns extended out.

Zarathustra also revealed his Mythical Creature Form!

Unlike the Historical Void Images of Him, His clothing is real, not part of the Historical Projection, and did not transform into Mythical Creature; it remains encased in the surface of the Worms Whirlpool.

This made Him look even more terrifying.

When Zarathustra manifested his Mythical Creature Form, both the male version of Jenna and the female version of Anthony experienced a momentary lag.

One of them had hair that grew thick and long rapidly, and his skin lost its luster; the other had patches of Gray-White Dragon Scales protruding from his face.

Without a sound, their bodies collapsed simultaneously. The former turned into a writhing mass of flesh, covered with thick, slick, and Evil black hair as thick as small snakes. The tips of these hairs were still struggling to open their clear black and white eyes or flick out snake-like tongues. The latter disintegrated into one Lizard after another covered with Gray-White Dragon Scales.

They 'Loss of Control.

Although Zarathustra's Mythical Creature Form was suppressed to Sequence 7, as Deep Mirror Image human, their mental state was inherently unstable, and their emotions tended to be extreme, naturally leading to an Loss of Control end.

As things progressed in this way, Ludwig's movements slowed down a bit, and his mind was also being subjected to Impact indiscriminate "Frenzy" of Female Anthony.

Just as he was about to succumb to the "Fascination" of the Male Jenna and turn to eat the pile of flesh, the two Loss of Control Deep Mirror Image began to fade and become transparent, and soon disappeared.

They were illusions all along.

Ludwig had no choice but to open his mouth wide, stretching his grin to the back of his head.

Then, he leaped toward the Zarathustra Mythical Creature Form dressed in a black suit and bit down on the extended, Evil tentacle.

He intends to use this to "Deprivation" Zarathustra of his "Paper Figurine Substitute" ability.

Snap!

Ludwig took a bite, but only managed to tear apart a Paper Person.

Zarathustra, now Mythical Creature, appeared in mid-air, and within the Gloom Whirlpool of countless Worms on its face, several gems of different colors seemed to light up simultaneously.

With the Paper Person still in his mouth, Ludwig was suddenly surrounded by a series of Phantom Gate.

These Phantom Gate came in various shapes and sizes; some opened in opposite directions, some were one-way, some had a faint crack, and some were covered with mysterious patterns... They were densely packed and numerous, completely enveloping Ludwig inside.

As Zarathustra waved its Slippery Tentacles, one of the Phantom Gate suddenly opened, welcoming Ludwig, who was being thrown towards it.

Ludwig's figure vanished into the deep darkness behind the door.

"Banishment"!

This is Zarathustra's "Magician" ability, which he uses with the help of a Sealed Artifact. It can throw a target into a corresponding Space-Time Turbulence, from which it can only return after five seconds. Of course, the prerequisite for a complete return is that the person or object thrown into the Space-Time Turbulence Space-Time Turbulence withstand its Impact.

This, combined with the "Miracle Invoker's " influence on Destiny, allows Ludwig to Banishment for a full ten seconds.

In just two or three seconds, Zarathustra had permanently or temporarily eliminated the third wave of attacking enemies.

He spoke again in the Draconic: "My Wish is:

"No one will bother me anymore."

No sooner had he spoken Zarathustra's Wish was granted.

Due to the suppression of this ability to Sequence 7, the fulfillment of His Wish has a clear boundary—it is only effective within the Future thirty seconds, and it is less effective against enemies with Divinity. The stronger the Divinity, the more likely it is to break through the limit and interfere with Him.

At this moment, Jenna, Concealment inside a Tunnel, suddenly finds herself unable to "travel" to the Mirror-Behind Region.

Zarathustra, still in its Mythical Creature Form, fell from mid-air and floated towards the glass mirror leading to the private room in the hot pot restaurant.

Rumble!

He heard a faint explosion and saw a illusory curtain being lifted up in a certain area Mirror-Behind Region, but not completely opened.

Inside the "Mysteries Realm".

When Lumian threw out the "Sword of Courage" and used the "Heng-Ha Art," Zarathustra's Historical Projection instantly swapped positions with his own Marionette.

The Marionette, struck by the two beams of white light, only swayed slightly.

His spirit is essentially dead.

Rumble!

The "Sword of Courage" struck the "Mysteries Realm's" weakness, creating a terrifying explosion, but failed to penetrate it.

In the midst of this chaos, Lumian vanished, "Flash" to the side of the Zarathustra Historical Void Images.

His left hand was already raised, and the Silver Bracelet on his wrist gleamed with a silvery-black light.

"Person of the Loop!"

Lumian used the "Person of the Loop"Person of the Loop technique again, specifically targeting the location of the Zarathustra Historical Void Images!

Of course, this attempt also forced him to confront the other party's Mythical Creature Form, and his thoughts and joints were filled with Glue, causing some signs of mental confusion.

In other words, because he possessed Divinity, the opponent's Mythical Creature Form was also restricted to the Sequence 7 level. Otherwise, even if he hadn't Loss of Control on the spot, he would have been in a state where his mind was swept up by the Storm and he would have been unable to continue his actions.

Zarathustra's Historical Void Images was about to continue swapping positions with the Marionette, it suddenly realized that the attempt had failed.

He remained where he was.

Seizing the opportunity, Lumian, whose eyes were silver-black, suddenly pushed his right palm forward.

All his remaining spirituality flowed Past the River of Destiny projected into Zarathustra's Historical Projection.

"Push Destiny!"

He wanted to push the Destiny of Zarathustra's Historical Projection toward the predetermined tributaries!

Due to the inherent nature of Zarathustra's Historical Projection, the probability of him succeeding in doing so is actually not high. However, as Historical Projection, they have inherent flaws, problems, and weaknesses in terms of Destiny, namely, the limitation of their duration.

If Lumian wants to Push Destiny and put Zarathustra's Historical Projection in a desperate situation, where it will be destroyed by his subsequent attacks, then he can only hope that Mr. The Fool will provide Protection. However, if he chooses the Fate Branch of "the Historical Projection being prematurely terminated due to an unexpected event," there is still a considerable chance of achieving his goal!

In an instant, Lumian's spirituality was completely drained, forcing him to release the pent-up Accumulation in order to sustain himself.

His body involuntarily leaned back slightly, and streaks of blood flowed from his eyes, nose, and mouth onto his bright face. His long black hair seemed to have come to life and swayed upwards, growing slightly thicker.

This is the backlash from directly confronting the Destiny of Mythical Creature.

Not only did he lose sight in one eye, but he also became like Marionette, temporarily unable to think or move.

Almost simultaneously, the Historical Void Images of Zarathustra became translucent, and water-like ripples appeared on its surface.

This is as if some accident prevented the spirituality of Zarathustra's original body, which maintained the existence of Historical Projection, from penetrating the "Mysteries Realm" and extending in.

In the blink of an eye, the Historical Void Images of Zarathustra faded into nothingness and vanished completely.

Without His presence, Lumian finally recovered.

His single blue eye, shrouded in blood mist, saw the black curtain covering the area rapidly disintegrating. He saw the Men Marionette, having lost the control of the Zarathustra Historical Void Images and being separated from Zarathustra's true form by the "Mysteries Realm," remaining motionless in place.

Before the "Mysteries Realm" completely collapsed, Lumian took out a Mirror, reflected the Marionette, and Curse with "Flames of Destruction".

The Men Marionette suddenly erupted with suppressed black Flames of madness and destruction from within, its body beginning to melt like steel.

Lumian didn't look at him again. After the "Mysteries Realm" collapsed further, he used his "Mirror Traversal" ability to return to the Mirror-Behind Region.

Zarathustra approached the glass mirror, he sensed movement behind him.

The Worms- Whirlpool, dressed in a black suit and extending Evil tentacles, suddenly turned around and saw Lumian, whose one eye was Blood-Colored and whose other eye was unfocused and flowing with blood.

Although Lumian did not look directly at the complete Mythical Creature, but only at the black leather shoes from which something vaguely crawled out, he still fell into intermittent mental blocks and slight mental confusion.

His tendency toward madness worsened.

At this moment, he had retrieved the "Sword of Courage" using Unseen Spider Silk, and holding the iron-black Straight Sword Burning with crimson Flames in both hands, he was about to slash at Zarathustra from a distance.

After overcoming numerous difficulties and launching several attacks, he and his teammates finally destroyed Zarathustra's Marionette and Historical Void Images, allowing them to challenge His true form!

Within the Gloom Whirlpool that forms Zarathustra's head, each Worms uttered an ancient voice.

The Vocabulary they spoke came together, forming an echoing phrase in just one second:

"I was quite surprised that my Historical Void Images was able to Termination in such a short time."

"But it's alright, I'll just summon another one."

As he spoke, Zarathustra stretched out a Evil, slippery tentacle, pulling out another version of himself from the Historical Fog.

This is still Him as Sequence 1 "Mystery Waiter".

If it weren't for the Concealment enemy who used the "Distortion" power to transfer him to the Mirror World, Zarathustra felt he could have easily killed them all instead of just trying to escape.

At this moment, Lumian felt an overwhelming sense of Despair.

Zarathustra also possess the spiritual ability to summon Historical Void Images?

Is this what Angel is like? Even though it was suppressed to Sequence 7, all of us only managed to destroy its Marionette; we didn't even scratch its skin!

Courage and madness took hold of Lumian's body; without fear, he unleashed a highly compressed crimson serpent of fire at Zarathustra and His Historical Void Images from afar.
