I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

"Hmm... this is indeed a bit strange. Why is there so much magic energy in this space? I don't think I've ever encountered this before?"

Upon hearing the question posed by Tokisaki Kurumi's clone, Yuhaka tilted his head and spread his hands with an O^O expression, indicating that he didn't know. However, Yuhaka could sense the flow of magic power and find out the reason for its outflow. After hearing that Yuhaka could find the source of the magic power flow, Tokisaki Kurumi's clone naturally agreed to go and find the source of the magic power flow. Tokisaki Kurumi's clone believed that the spatial anomaly was very likely related to that source.

The three then began their operation, with Yuhaka leading the way and the other two following him to find the location of the magic source. On the way, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone looked at the map in her hand while observing the surrounding environment. The map in Kurumi Tokisaki's hand was a park guidebook, which could be obtained from the ticket seller when purchasing a ticket.

Looking at the scenic spots listed in the park guidebook, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone tried to compare the surrounding scenery with the places described in the park guidebook and found that the scenery here was not much different from the places described in the park guidebook.

This also proves that Yuhaka and the others are indeed inside the scenic park, and not that they have been teleported to some strange place.

The only difference is that the plants here seem much more lush than those in the photos taken at the scenic park, and there are many more plants whose names I don't know. At least from their appearance, they don't seem to be species from Earth.

Meanwhile, Tokisaki Kurumi's clones also discovered that their communication seemed to be ineffective, which made Tokisaki Kurumi's clones narrow their eyes. Obviously, the interference here was much more complicated than the situation outside. However, Tokisaki Kurumi had expected this. Yuhaka had previously tried to open a passage from the inside to leave this place, so there was no need to worry about the situation inside for the time being.

At the same time, trouble also came their way.

Volume 1 [Lazy Chapters]: Chapter 1382 [Attack and Familiar Henchmen]

Yuhaka and his team, who were conducting exploration work, were also attacked.

The creatures that attacked Yuhaka and her companions were familiar—a group of monsters resembling skeleton soldiers. Yuhaka had encountered them in the world of "Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance." These were Dragon Fang Soldiers from the Fate series, a type of low-level summon. However, compared to ordinary skeleton soldiers, these Dragon Fang Soldiers were more agile and skilled with their weapons. Ordinary soldiers with small-caliber weapons were simply not enough to deal with these nimble creatures.

Kurumi Tokisaki's clone frowned as she watched the Dragon Fang Soldiers rushing towards her. She realized that these Dragon Fang Soldiers, which resembled undead monsters, were the same ones she had encountered at a school. The incident at that school, where a large number of teachers and students had fainted, had made the news, and Kurumi Tokisaki had sensed something was wrong and had gone to investigate.

During her investigation, Tokisaki Kurumi encountered these Dragon Fang Soldiers, who attacked her. However, she shattered them all with a few shots. The remaining Dragon Fang Soldiers all entered her Eclipse Castle. It has to be said that Tokisaki Kurumi was somewhat surprised that these monster-like beings could squeeze out even a little bit of time.

"The bad guy is coming! OwO/~!"

Upon seeing the enemy, Yuhaka excitedly raised his little hand and summoned the Baradion and the Demon-Slaying Sword. He then mowed down the Dragon Tooth Soldiers like grass. Before Elodie could even pull out Levadin, Yuhaka had already eliminated most of the Dragon Tooth Soldiers. The remaining Dragon Tooth Soldiers hurriedly left, as if they had been ordered to retreat.

As for the fleeing Dragon Fang Soldiers, Kurumi Tokisaki's clones didn't let Yuhaka and the others chase after them immediately. After all, who knew if the enemy had prepared traps or something? If they rushed over too hastily, they might fall into a trap.

Although Yhaka is very strong, neither I nor Elodie, who are Kyo Tokisaki's clones, have the same strength as Yhaka. It would be bad if we fell into some trap and dragged Yhaka down with us.

"Are those monsters Dragon Fang Soldiers from the Fate series?"

Regarding the question about Tokisaki Kurumi's clone, Yuhaka nodded in agreement. As for why the Dragon Fang Soldier appeared in this strange space, that was indeed a question. However, Tokisaki Kurumi's clone thought that there might be Caster Shadow Servants here, since those Caster-class Servants were best at dealing with these familiar-like beings.

Kurumi Tokisaki's clone looked at the Dragon Fang Soldiers, who had been shattered into pieces by Yhaka, with a puzzled expression. She picked up a small piece and said:

"Hmm... It seems like the data here hasn't disappeared. What could be causing this?"

Yuhaka and Elodie, who were present, were also unsure about Tokisaki Kurumi's questions. However, Tokisaki Kurumi's clone didn't intend to get the answers from them. They would just ask Zelus later, as she might know something.

After collecting the Dragon Fang Soldier fragments from the ground, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone spoke to Yuhaka:

"YuYu-chan, can you track which direction those Dragon Tooth Soldiers ran in?"

Hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's question, Yuhaka nodded in agreement, as it was far too easy for him. Meanwhile, Elodie equipped herself with an automaton that resembled a shield. The defensive automaton she had designed had some issues with its appearance and heat dissipation, preventing Elodie from completing the defensive automaton at this time. Therefore, Elodie had to temporarily use the shield she had originally prepared for the defensive automaton. Of course, this shield was also an automaton, though not as intelligent as the humanoid automatons, but it was still quite good in terms of defensive magic circuits.

While Yuhaka was searching for enemy traces, Tokisaki Kurumi's clone was also looking at the map in her hand. The further they walked, the more Tokisaki Kurumi realized that the enemy was circling around them, which made her clone feel a sense of unease.

Despite being a Shadow Servant, she possesses the intelligence to deliberately manipulate others. This doesn't seem like the behavior of an ordinary Shadow Servant; rather, it's more like that of a real Servant. This made Tokisaki Kurumi's clone somewhat suspicious.

"Yuyu-chan, Miss Elodie, wait a minute."

"OwO?", "?"

Upon hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's clone's words, Yuhaka, who was searching for the Dragon Fang Soldiers, and Elodie, who was on guard, stopped in their tracks and looked at Kurumi Tokisaki's clone with puzzled expressions, as if they didn't understand why Kurumi Tokisaki's clone had suddenly called them back.

Seeing the puzzled looks on Yuhaka's and the others' faces, Kurumi Tokisaki explained to them:

"Hmm, something's not right. They're playing games with us. It seems they're not just any ordinary Shadow Follower."

After hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's explanation, Yuhaka tilted his head and looked at Kurumi's clone, asking:

"What should we do then?"

Kurumi Tokisaki also had an idea regarding the issue of Yuhaka.

"If I'm not mistaken, the place where you went to the magic source before, Yu-chan, might have been an enemy stronghold or some important location. That's why they sent those grunts to attack us and distract us. At the same time, they might have also used this time to set up traps or do other things."

Upon hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's explanation of her clones, Yuhaka and Elodie clapped their hands with slightly surprised expressions. Clearly, they greatly admired Kurumi's analysis, as these two were generally not very cunning.

After roughly guessing the enemy's plan, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone led the team back towards the magic source. Just as Kurumi Tokisaki said, when Yuhaka and the others broke away from tracking the Dragon Fang soldiers, it wasn't long before the second batch of Dragon Fang soldiers reappeared, and their numbers had increased considerably. Obviously, the enemy had also discovered that Yuhaka and the others had seen through their plan, so they launched a new round of surprise attacks.

However, just like last time, most of the Dragon Tooth soldiers were shattered by Yhaka. In addition, due to Elodie's actions, many Dragon Tooth soldiers were turned into roasted ribs. After the remaining Dragon Tooth soldiers escaped, Yhaka and her group did not pursue them. Only then did the mastermind realize that the other side had discovered their plan, and it was no longer a coincidence.

So when the next enemy launched a surprise attack, they dispatched a large number of Dragon Tooth Soldiers. At the same time, many gargoyles that looked like stone statues and artificial life forms that looked like giants also attacked Yhaka and her companions. However, Yhaka and her companions dealt with these attacks. After all, these grunts were basically no match for the wide-range AOE attacks of Yhaka and Elodie.

As for Kurumi Tokisaki's clone... well, it's obviously just slacking off. After all, she's not the real person, so there's basically no way for her to use Zafkiel or a large-scale Eclipse Castle. Plus, if she uses her spiritual power, it will consume her own time. Once her time is used up, she will disappear, and then it will be troublesome if no one is there to command Yuhaka and the others.

Before long, the enemy soldiers were wiped out by Yuhaka and her group. Yuhaka left no enemy behind. She pulled Baradion, who had transformed into a bow and arrow, and fired an arrow at the distant enemy. The distant enemy was killed by Yuhaka's arrow as if it had hit a missile.

After defeating the enemy, Yuhaka and her group were not attacked again. Perhaps the enemy realized that Yuhaka and her group were not easy to deal with, and stopped wasting their resources on attacking them.

In that case, Kurumi Tokisaki also felt that the other party was planning something new.

Volume 1 [Lazy Chapters]: Chapter 1383 [Yohaka: Where are you? OwO?]

After Yuhaka's search, she and her companions found the location of the magic source. In a relatively secluded spot within a scenic area, they discovered a temple in the style of ancient Greece. Upon seeing this, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone glanced at the park guide in her hand to confirm that she was on the Chinese side, not the Greek side. The clone then looked at the distant ancient Greek temple with a surprised expression and said:

"Although I was mentally prepared, I still almost thought I was in the wrong place when I saw a temple in the style of ancient Greece."

"OwO?", "?"

Upon hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's clone's words, Yuhaka and Elodie looked at each other with puzzled expressions. Responding to their questioning gazes, Kurumi's clone waved her hand and said:

"Don't worry about these things. We need to deal with the issues at hand more than my own problems."

Upon hearing Tokisaki Kyo's mention of split bodies, Yuhaka also raised her little hand and said to her:

"Should Youyou blow up that big house?"

In response to Yuhaka's suggestion, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone shook her head and said:

"Not yet. Although I want to destroy the enemy's base in one fell swoop, I don't know what unexpected situations might arise. I also want to find out the enemy's true identity. If the other party is the mastermind behind this strange space, they might know about the situation in Altair."

After receiving an explanation from Tokisaki Kurumi's clone, the two nodded as if they understood. Of course, Yuhaka had an expression that said "I don't understand but it's amazing," while Elodie roughly understood that Tokisaki Kurumi's clone wanted to capture the other party to see if they could get something out of her.

The three then began their operation. When the two arrived around the ancient Greek-style temple, a large number of dragon tooth soldiers emerged from all directions. Looking at the vast number of dragon tooth soldiers in front of them, Yuhaka and the others guessed that the other side had gathered all the dragon tooth soldiers here.

However, achieving this number wasn't difficult. With the emblem of the technique appearing behind Yuhaka, Yuhaka unleashed a crescent-shaped sword slash, and a fiery sword aura, like a giant crescent moon, wiped out most of the enemies on the field.

The remaining Dragon Tooth Soldiers were all eliminated in the subsequent attacks by Elodie and Yuhaka.

After dealing with the Dragon Fang Soldiers at the temple entrance, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone asked Elodie, who was standing nearby:

"Miss Elodie, have you noticed anything amiss?"

Upon hearing about Tokisaki Kurumi's clone issue, Elodie observed her surroundings and, finding no trace of magic, spoke to Tokisaki Kurumi's clone:

"No, at least there's no magic barrier or anything like that set up here."

After receiving Elodie's affirmation, Tokisaki Kurumi's clone couldn't help but fall into thought. To be honest, the clone felt that the other party's unguarded behavior made her think that the other party was up to some kind of conspiracy.

"Yes, it's best to be careful. Everyone should pay attention once we're inside. If you notice anything wrong, report it immediately, understand?"

Upon hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's words, Yuhaka and Elodie nodded in understanding. After seeing them nod, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone led Yuhaka and the others into the temple, which had an ancient Greek style.

Upon entering the temple, Yuhaka and her companions found it to be quite empty, containing nothing but a statue.

Of course, this is only the surface appearance. With his excellent senses, Ehaka also sensed that there was space under the statue. Then, Ehaka used his superhuman strength to move the statue and threw it aside.

After Yuhaka and the others noticed a staircase leading underground where the statues had originally been, Kurumi Tokisaki's clone also looked at the dark underground passage with some curiosity and said:

"This is truly astonishing. There's actually a passage leading underground here. How did they manage to create such a bottomless underground tunnel?"

You know, the problem at this scenic spot only started today. Although we can't guarantee that the other party appeared last night, how could they have fixed a temple and underground space in such a short time? Did they use magic?

Kurumi Tokisaki's clone also looked puzzled, since Kurumi Tokisaki didn't understand magic and didn't know how the other party had created such a thing. But at least Kurumi Tokisaki's clone knew that the other party's strength might not be simple.

Hmm... at least he's no match for Yhaka.

After Elodie cast a spell for illumination, Yuhaka and the others also went down the stairs.

After walking for a few minutes, Tokisaki Kurumi's clone also noticed that the staircase seemed to be very long. How did the other party dig to such a deep place?

Just as Kurumi Tokisaki's clone was slightly distracted, it suddenly noticed that Yuhaka and Elodie were missing.

At the same time, Yuhaka also noticed that Elodie and Kurumi Tokisaki's clones had disappeared.

"OO?"

Yuhaka, noticing that Elodie and Tokisaki Kurumi's clones were missing, scratched the back of his head with a puzzled expression. Although he couldn't sense the presence of Elodie and Tokisaki Kurumi's clones, Yuhaka also couldn't smell any blood or sense any enemy presence.

However, the only certainty is that Yuhaka just sensed a sudden change in this space, which is likely the main reason she was separated from Elodie and the others.

Just as Yuhka was about to tear open the spatial barrier to find Elodie and Kurumi Tokisaki, he once again sensed the fluctuations in space. Yuhka suddenly appeared in a room made of stone, where he saw several beast-like monsters with multiple different heads—Chimeras—surrounding him.

Upon seeing Yhaka suddenly appear, the chimeras all stood up, clearly looking like they had spotted prey. Yhaka's large tail stood up as he looked at the chimeras, drooling. After all, these were monsters with multiple animal body parts, something Yhaka had never seen before, and it made him want to try them out.

Facing the charging chimeras, Yhaka slid under the belly of one that lunged at him and drew his Demon Slayer Sword, slashing down on the one with a snake-like body and tail that was swinging at him.

The chimera, having lost its tail, let out a scream. The snake tail that had been cut off by Yhaka writhed wildly, trying to attack Yhaka. However, after Yhaka chopped off its head, all that remained of the chimera was its writhing body.

After Yhwach dodged the chimeras' first attack, he drew his Baradion sword and chopped off all the chimeras' heads. However, because each chimera had three heads, it took Yhwach a little while.

As Yuhaka was about to collect the meat, he suddenly felt the room begin to shake, and then he saw the entire room collapse.

After a loud rumble, the room fell silent. A moment later, a sword tip suddenly appeared on the door of one of the rooms. The sword tip then traced a human figure on the stone door. After the stone with the human figure was kicked aside, Yuhaka, looking bewildered, walked out.

Judging from the bulging veins on Yuhaka's head, he was a little angry.

Following the scent of the magic source, Yhaka charged forward with the Demon-Slaying Holy Sword and the Baradion Divine Sword. Clearly, Yhaka wouldn't rest until he had given the culprit a good beating.

Volume 1 [Lazy Chapters]: Chapter 1384 [Yohaka: Delicious!]

As Yuhka angrily ran towards the source of magic, in a secluded magic workshop, a petite figure in a black cloak watched Yuhka and the others on the crystal ball. At this moment, Yuhka and the others were forced to separate. Elodie was fine and was trying to break through the alternate dimension here. Meanwhile, Tokisaki Kurumi's clone was still at the Infinite Staircase. Since the other party did not have the ability to break through the alternate dimension here, she did not care much about it.

However, compared to these two, she was more concerned about the child wielding two swords. Yuhaka's strength made her very wary. The fact that those chimeras and the collapsing rocks couldn't crush him made her feel troubled. Relying on those monsters probably wouldn't work; she needed to prepare other methods to deal with him.

Soon, she looked toward the alchemy workbench on the side, where she saw a bottle of rose-colored potion, and a plan came to her mind.

.................................................. ..................

Along the way, Yuhaka encountered quite a few small monsters, which were not a problem for him. The only troublesome ones were probably the flying books. These flying books were not only agile and nimble, but they could also cast ranged spells and magic that could hinder Yuhaka.

This annoyed Yuhaka, but thankfully, after dealing with the flying books, they never appeared again.

After hacking away at Dragon Tooth Soldiers, Golems, and artificial lifeforms, Yuhaka finally arrived at a place with a huge stone gate. From here, Yuhaka could sense that the source of magic power was behind this gate. Thinking of this, Yuhaka felt that his goal was also in this place.

So Yuhka used his twin swords to cut open the door in front of him and went inside. Once inside, Yuhka saw a vast array of magic circles and a petite figure in a black cloak flying in the air.

Through Yuhaka's observation, Yuhaka could also sense the aura of magical energy emanating from the other party. The surging magical energy emanating from the other party made Yuhaka realize that the other party was not simple. Judging from his appearance, Yuhaka felt that the other party did not look like a Shadow Servant, but rather resembled the Assassin he had eliminated before.

Although the other person wore a cloak and a black veil to cover their face and gender, the robe they wore, which was similar to Nia Honjou's semi-transparent nun's habit, could hardly hide their petite and cute figure. Moreover, the crimson tattoos on their body gave them a seductive feel that did not match their figure, especially the heart-shaped tattoo on their lower abdomen.

Moreover, besides the crimson patterns on the other person's body, there were also similar patterns on their clothing, which looked like blood vessels and gave people an ominous feeling.
