Hearing that delicate voice, the fire thief frowned.

She probably saw Xia's swollen face at that moment.

"Hmph, do as you please." At that moment, Xia leaned against the wall with his arms crossed and his face bruised and swollen, still looking arrogant.

The fire thief, still furious, went over and slapped him again. Only then did he imitate Tian's behavior, squatting down unwillingly and covering his head with his hands.

That moment Xia: "..."

The fire thief ignored the three and slowly passed by Tian, ​​Nakasha, and Saifeier, searching the second floor.

Throughout this process, the three followed the fire thief in trepidation, no longer daring to act recklessly...

After making his way around, the fire-stealer felt even more depressed.

The scent was clearly nearby, so why couldn't I find it?

Just as he turned around, he inadvertently spotted Saifeier standing next to Xia and Tian.

At this moment, she had a halo above her head and seemed no different from the other two.

"you……"

The Fire Stealer raised his greatsword, pointing it at the circle above Saifei's head, and questioned:

"die……?"

"Yes!" Sai Fei'er nodded frantically, looking pitiful.

"I just accidentally fell into the river and drowned. You can tell by the circle on my head."

The Fire Stealer remained silent as he gazed at Sai Fei'er's halo.

He stared at her for a long time before asking in a hoarse voice:

"Where is the body...?"

"Oh? Of course, it's better to be buried in peace!" Saifei said with a smile.

"I am a renowned demigod, after all. It would be too undignified for me to die in the wilderness like this."

"So I fished it out and buried it in the ground."

"..." The Fire Thief stared silently at Sai Fei'er, then suddenly raised his hand and removed the halo from her head.

As it was removed, golden blood remained on the gold wire at the bottom of the aperture, dripping down.

"Dare to plug in...you've got guts..."

"???" Sai Fei'er's eyes widened. "You're so disrespectful to the dead! How could you just pull it out like that?!"

I'm going to get my revenge on you!

With that, she threw a bomb at the fire thief and then fled.

'boom--! ! ’

The explosion echoed through the castle. The fire-stealer tried to give chase, but was blocked from view by Xia and Tian.

The two of them danced and gesticulated wildly, distracting the fire-stealers and buying Sai Fei'er time to escape.

*Smack! Smack!*

After slapping each of them, the fire thief hurriedly chased after Sai Fei'er.

At that moment, Xia and Tian: "..."

……

Having fled to the palace in Stikosia once again, Cypher stepped onto the red carpet and couldn't help but turn around.

Sure enough, the fire thieves caught up with them again.

You're really... a persistent ghost!

"Sigh, it seems I have no choice but to have a real fight with you."

Sai Fei'er turned around, helplessly rubbing her hands together in anticipation.

"Don't underestimate a demigod who has lived for a thousand years. Demigods are like fine wine, the longer they are aged, the better they become..."

"Hehe, just kidding~"

She quickly tossed a strange coin into the air, and at the same time, a surge of divine power emanated from her body.

"Goodbye!"

The moment the coin is tossed into the air, Saifei's speed will reach its peak.

Just as she took her first step, turned towards the window, and tried to continue her escape...

The Fire Thief appeared in front of the fluttering coins and easily caught them, causing Sai Fei'er's incredible speed to vanish instantly.

"What?!" Sai Fei'er turned around and stared wide-eyed.

At the same time, the twisted greatsword pressed down with a terrifying aura.

At that moment, the surrounding air felt like it was being torn apart.

Sai Fei'er drew her ring and held it horizontally in front of her, blocking the attack. The terrifying force forced her to retreat repeatedly, leaving deep scorch marks on the ground from the friction of her boots.

A trickle of golden blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and she marveled once again at the power of the fire thief.

"How is this possible?! You...!"

The fire-stealer did not answer; the cold blade pierced through Saifei's head.

The girl's pupils widened suddenly as she stared intently at the sword tip getting closer and closer to her eyes. The fear of death welled up inside her and quickly spread to every part of her body.

Her hands and feet suddenly felt cold, and she broke out in a cold sweat.

This time, it seems like things are really going to fall apart.

Just as he was preparing to face his death, the fire-stealer's sword suddenly stopped moving.

Or rather, it's immobile.

"..."

Thousands of golden threads wrapped around the sword and the black-robed swordsman's body, preventing him from advancing even an inch further.

“Sefaria…”

Sai Fei'er turned around in a daze and looked toward the source of the sound. It was a familiar woman who was quietly looking at her.

"A seamstress?" Sai Fei'er asked in surprise.

The golden light illuminated the entire dimly lit palace.

And Aglaia's cheeks.

Chapter 1474: The Glory of Gold

“You are the hero of Onphalus, Cephalia.”

Aglaia stepped forward, holding a golden rapier, and slowly walked to Saifei's side.

"He... is someone we should face together."

“Ha, that makes sense…” Saifei adjusted her posture and looked warily at the black-robed swordsman along with Aglaia.

"Seamstress, I'll make an exception this time and fight alongside you."

"But you know, there's the reward afterward~"

Aglaia raised her rapier, stared at the Firebringer, and said to Sephiroth:

“In my secret stash is a canary, carved from gold and emerald.”

"Okay, deal!"

"..." The black-robed swordsman stared at the two of them, then with a flick of his arms, he shattered the golden restraints and charged towards them with a surging momentum.

Wherever the black sword struck, the gray-white floor quickly became stained and turned black.

"Bang!!"

Aglaia and Saifell blocked the attack together with their weapons, while at the same time a streak of light flew in from not far away.

The heavy spear of divine punishment hurtled towards the black-robed swordsman's chest like a meteor.

The fire thief's gaze sharpened, and he dodged the attack.

The spear of divine retribution roared past, shattering the wall and sending stone fragments flying everywhere.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Wan Di slowly approached from not far away.

"It took quite a while to get from reality to Stikosia, so I guess I arrived on time?"

"Your aim isn't that great either," Bai E, standing beside Wan Di, said, patting him on the shoulder while carrying a greatsword.

"Look, you didn't even hit it. What a waste of the spear of conflict."

“Bai’er, Maidemos…” Aglaia looked at the two of them and smiled faintly.

“You’ve come at just the right time. With just me and Sefalia, it would be a bit difficult to fight him.”

“It is an honor, Aglaia.” Wan Di rubbed his hands together, eager to fight.

"Although I don't know what connection this guy has with Kuroshio, an enemy is an enemy."

“If we kill him here, we'll have no more worries.”

"Wow? Quite confident." Bai E raised an eyebrow.

"Don't forget, he has defeated you many times."

"Hmph, if you were to fight him one-on-one, you'd be the same!" Wan Di glanced at Bai E.

"Savior, are you now strong enough to be on the battlefield?"

"You still have a chance to escape."

"Heh, then you'll be disappointed." Bai E gripped his longsword tightly and looked intently at the black-robed swordsman in the distance.
