Chapter 463 Don't underestimate this island
"Om..."

Just as the guardian behind Sentoki Yuma unleashed his demonic power, Aize also released his spiritual power.

His spiritual power easily overwhelmed the terrifying guardian magic of Sentoki Yuma, suppressing it firmly and preventing it from fully erupting.

If that magical power were to erupt, then, putting aside everything else, Akatsuki Nagisa, who was lying not far away, would be the first to suffer, and even the entire apartment building would be affected.

Without saying a word, Aize unleashed his immense spiritual power, overwhelming her without reason. Instantly, he vanished from his spot and reappeared in front of Sentoki Yuma.

"...!"

Sento Muyu was shocked and was about to react when Aize suddenly reached out and grabbed her collar.

"Boom!"

The next moment, with a sound as if the space had been pierced, Aize left only a wisp of smoke behind, grabbed Sendou Yuma and disappeared from the room without a trace.

…………

The skies above the southern part of Itogami Island.

"Boom!"

Without any warning, Aize, who was holding Sentoki Yuma, suddenly appeared here and sped forward.

"Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!"...

As the sound of space being pierced appeared again and again, Aize, as if teleporting, carried Sentoki Yuma forward until they reached the seaside, where they suddenly plummeted and landed on the ground.

"Oh!"

As if a meteor had fallen to earth, a reef on the coast of Itogami Island, near the sea, was smashed to pieces and exploded on the spot, creating huge shockwaves and waves that pushed the waves crashing in one direction away to the other.

"Well……"

At this moment, Sentoki Yuma's figure appeared from the distorted space, landing directly on an intact reef, kneeling on one knee, looking somewhat distressed.

"Did they use spatial control magic before landing and escape via spatial teleportation?"

On the broken reef, Aize, who had been in the position of throwing what he was holding downwards but hitting nothing, stood up and spoke to Sendou Yuma opposite him.

"She reacts very quickly; she doesn't seem like a delicate witch at all."

Upon hearing this, Sendou Yuma gave a very forced smile.

"Don't let my appearance fool you, I grew up playing basketball with Kojou since I was a kid, and my physical abilities are no worse than any boy's." Sendou Yuma said casually, "I didn't expect that the legendary King of Monsters could use spatial control magic so skillfully. He's really hiding his true strength."

The Sound Transformation is a technique of spatial movement, so it's quite normal for Sentoki Yuuma to mistake it for spatial control magic.

However, as a witch who was proficient in spatial manipulation magic, she was quite surprised that she could not tell what spell Aize was using, or even see any trace of the spell.

Unfortunately, Aize didn't offer any explanation.

"If you want to make a move, do it here," Aize said calmly. "Here, you don't have to worry about it affecting Nagisa and Kojo."

Sendou Yuma really wanted to say that this was what she hoped to see as well.

But as the one who intended to harm Akatsuki Nagisa, Sendou Yuma felt she had lost the right to say those words.

"Cang!"

Therefore, Sentoki Yuma decisively summoned her guardian, causing the ferocious faceless knight to reappear behind her.

The faceless blue knight raised his hands, his armor creaking, and then vanished without warning, disappearing as if merging into space, swaying and disappearing without a trace.

When it reappeared, it was already behind Azer, and it swung its raised hands down heavily.

"Oh!"

The heavy steel arm smashed the remaining half of the reef, causing the seawater to surge again.

However, this steel fist, powerful enough to smash a human body into a pulp, was caught by Azer's elbow as he faced away from the faceless blue knight.

"Not bad."

Aize floated directly above the seawater, defying the rules of gravity, and his words were unusually calm.

"Unfortunately, this is not enough to pose a threat to me."

As he spoke, Aize slowly raised his elbow, pushing the steel wrist that had been resting on it back little by little, while chanting softly.

"Hado No. 11: Lightning Bolt".

Instantly, Azer's entire body released dazzling electric light, which flowed down his elbow toward the faceless blue knight.

"Bam—"

The electric current exploded, sending bluish-white sparks flying across the faceless blue knight, knocking him back a distance and causing him to let out a somewhat painful roar.

"whispering sound……!"

Immediately, Sentoki Yuma smacked her lips, raised her hand, and the space around her immediately distorted.

Due to the distortion and interference of space, the seawater around Xian Du Mu Yu Ma was as if it had been overturned by an invisible giant arm, and began to surge towards Aize, intending to swallow it up.

"Red Fire Cannon!"

Facing the nearly ten-meter-high waves, Aize simply stretched out one hand and chanted a short incantation.

"boom!"

The next second, a crimson flame cannonball exploded into the oncoming wave, shattering it on the spot.

"It's not over yet!"

Xian Dumu Yuma once again unleashed spatial control magic, causing ripples in space to appear above Aize's head.

Countless drops of seawater crashed down from it, like a flood from the heavens, roaring and engulfing Azer.

Judging by the volume of seawater, it would probably wash away not just one person, but even an aircraft carrier.

"Certainly!"

Aize didn't look up at the sky, but instead softly uttered a single word.

Immediately, something incredible happened.

The seawater, which was flowing down like a flood, seemed to have been frozen in place, as if someone had pressed the pause button.

"what?"

Sentoki Yuuma couldn't believe her eyes.

"Using space distortion to transfer a large amount of seawater to attack me is indeed a good tactic." Aize's voice remained calm as he said, "Unfortunately, it is still not enough to pose a threat to me."

Controlling the ocean is actually one of Azer's specialties.

Aize then canceled his control over gravity and instead manipulated the sea surface, allowing himself to walk on the seawater as if it were flat ground.

"Buzz!"

The faceless blue knight immediately launched an attack, suddenly appearing behind Azer in a distorted manner, and raising his giant hand at him.

But before its steel fist could land, Aize suddenly swung a punch, slamming it into its chest. "Bang!!!"

With an overwhelmingly heavy thud, the faceless blue knight was sent flying backward, his armor destroyed and scattered in fragments.

"Cang!"

Sendou Yuma couldn't help but shout out, but it was to no avail.

"Binding Path No. 63: Locks and Bindings".

Just as the faceless blue knight was about to fly into the sea, Azer reached out and released thick, light-like chains.

The chains flew out like dragons, wrapping around the faceless blue knight and binding him tightly.

"Break it off! Azure!"

Imtoki Yuma quickly gave the order and transferred a large amount of magic power to the faceless blue knight, making the ferocious demonic power emanating from its body become more and more terrifying.

It began to struggle incessantly, but to no avail; it was completely unable to break free of the light-like chains.

"how so……!?"

Sendou Yuuma unconsciously took a step back.

This faceless blue knight is not only her guardian, but also the guardian of Sentomu Aya, who has been imprisoned in a prison barrier and has not seen the sun outside since ten years ago.

As the guardian of two outstanding witches, Cang's power may not be as terrifying as Nangong Nayue's Ring King, but it is definitely not comparable to inferior witches like the Maya sisters.

With its power, Cang might struggle against a True Ancestor-level familiar, but ordinary vampires from the old generation would be no match for it.

With this guardian around, even if Sentoki Yuma were to confront a third-generation vampire elder, she wouldn't be afraid at all, and she wouldn't even be unable to touch a second-generation royal.

As a result, this powerful guardian was not only knocked away by Aize with a single punch, but was also bound by unknown spells or magic, unable to even break free.
I knew you were strong, but I didn't expect you to be this strong!

Originally, Sentoki Yuma thought that Aize's true strength lay in the mythical creatures he controlled, so she had prepared countermeasures for this early on.

Her original plan was that as soon as Aize released those famous mythical creatures, she would immediately activate spatial control magic to teleport all of them to the pre-arranged coordinates.

In this way, Azer, having lost those terrifying mythical creatures, is not so difficult to deal with.

However, in retrospect, she was too naive.

"Do you think summoning divine beasts is the only method I have?"

Aize reached out and a silver blade appeared in his hand.

"Then you are underestimating me too much."

The silver blade in Aize's hand suddenly split into many silver short blades, which flew around him.

"hateful!"

Sentoki Yuma sensed the danger and, without hesitation, activated her spatial control magic, entering a state of spatial jump, causing the space around her to distort.

The witch who wields spatial control magic may not be the strongest, but she is certainly the most mobile, able to go anywhere.

In Sentoki Yuma's view, even if she couldn't beat Aize, she could still escape if she wanted to.

"Don't think about it."

Aize pointed a finger, causing the silver short blades around him to fly out suddenly, turning into streaks of silver light that swept towards Sentoki Yuma.

They leaped, soared, and darted around Sento Muyu, like dancing sprites, cutting through the distorted space around her hundreds and thousands of times, forcefully severing that space.

"Space Severing Technique!"

Sendou Yuma finally couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Sixty-one of the Binding Dao: Six-Stand Light Prison."

Aize pointed again, and six dazzling light shards immediately flew in from all directions, imprisoning Sento Muyuma.

"What kind of technique is this?!"

Sentoki Yuma struggled desperately, even activating her spatial control magic again, but she was completely unable to shake the light shards that imprisoned her.

Spatial control magic also failed, because the silver short blade of the Hundred-Type Heavy Armor Demon-Slaying Blade was flying back and forth around her, cutting through space and creating spatial rifts, making it impossible for Sentoki Yuuma to interfere with this space at all.

"Shh!"

Aize then appeared in front of Sentoki Yuuma using Shunpo, reached out his hand, and pressed his fingertips against Sentoki Yuuma's forehead.

"The outcome is decided." Aize said as if he had done something insignificant. "Now, you should be willing to give up, right?"

Aize's words finally made Sentoki Yuma stop struggling.

“…That’s too unfair.” Sendou Yuma said with a bitter and complicated expression, “Why, of all times, does someone as terrifying as you have to appear next to Nagisa?”

LCO (Library)'s original plan was naturally not related to Akina Gisa.

After all, it was only a few months ago that Akatsuki Nagisa became the vessel for the Fourth Progenitor.

Therefore, taking control of Akatsuki Nagisa's body and using the power of the Fourth Progenitor within her to achieve their goals was a plan that the LCO (Library) revised after learning that Akatsuki Nagisa had become the vessel of the Fourth Progenitor.

At that time, they thought the time was ripe and they could finally rescue the "Secretary Witch" who was imprisoned in the prison barrier. Who would have thought that such a variable as Aize would appear around the key target?
"Perhaps it was destined that your plan would fail?" Aize said. "Even without me, you would still have fallen on this Itogami Island in the end."

"Even if you regain your freedom, what good will it do to [Secretary Witch] Sentomu Aya, your mother?"

"Ten years ago, she lost to Nangong Nayue, and ten years later she will still fall here."

"Don't underestimate this island, witches."

As soon as he finished speaking, Aize flicked his finger and struck Sentoki Yuma's forehead.

"Oh!"

The powerful flick to the forehead made Sendou Yuma feel as if she had been hit hard on the head, and she immediately lost consciousness.

"Crackling crackling—"

Just as Sentoki Yuma lost consciousness, the faceless blue knight, who was tightly bound by thick chains of light, went berserk and struggled with astonishing strength.

"Is it Xian Du Mu A Ye?"

Aize sensed a magical power emanating from the Blue Knight that did not belong to Sentoki Yuma, and narrowed his eyes.

"He tampered with the guardian of his own clone, so he can control that guardian to act at crucial moments?"

"It seems you don't quite trust your daughter."

"But...who gave you permission to run amok here?"

A flash of silver light suddenly appeared, unleashing countless slashes at the faceless blue knight.

"Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!"...

In an instant, countless chaotic slashes targeting space cleaved the faceless blue knight into pieces, which then dissipated into the air.
