"The Slideshow...a monster?"

Although he was somewhat surprised, he didn't show it, or rather, feelings had long since drifted away from him.

"What a troublesome opponent. Although his talent as a magician can only be considered third-rate, his combat skills are truly top-notch. I suppose only that boy can rival him."

Aozaki Touko breathed a sigh of relief with a gloomy face. A person like Araya Sōren is definitely one of the opponents that magicians hate to encounter the most. Despite his low magical talent, he relies on his strong physical strength to forcibly surpass others.

"Even the allure of the Demon Eye is useless; I'm afraid I'm going to die here today."

Aozaki Touko knew her own limitations very well. To be honest, the person more suited to this occasion was not her, but her younger sister, Aozaki Aoko, who was nicknamed "human self-propelled missile cannon".

"Don't be afraid!"

Before Orange could even take out the next rune stone, Araya Sōren had already appeared behind her, and at that moment, she felt as if she had fallen into a state of stillness.

This is one of the abilities of the Barrier Technique: Six Paths of Reincarnation. It can steal all the power of all living beings within the barrier, making it a perfect barrier technique that combines attack, defense, and self-enhancement.

Then—that fist, seemingly as hard as steel, struck Orange's soft abdomen without mercy. Accompanied by a "whoosh" of blood, she flew through the air for more than ten meters before landing.

"His ribs... are probably all broken. His stomach, liver, spleen, and other internal organs have also suffered extensive internal injuries from the impact and are bleeding profusely at this moment..."

As Orange struggled to get up, she quickly assessed her physical condition. Unfortunately, judging from the current situation, just as she had predicted half a minute earlier, she was likely to die here.

Because she was in such a hurry when she went out, she didn't bring the attack-type doll with her, and now it seems she's suffering the consequences.

"Oh dear, isn't this the great Grand Puppeteer, Aozaki Touko? How did you end up in such a sorry state? You look like you're about to die any second now."

Seeing Aozaki Touko convulsing on the ground, Aruba shed his earlier disheveled state and revealed a triumphant smile of revenge.

However, at that moment, a clear, youthful voice rang in the ears of all three people present—

"Hatake Sword Technique - First Form -"

"A flash of aurora!"

P.S.: Please consider giving me a tip.

Chapter 367: Mr. Shen, the Wife-Protecting Maniac

"Hatake Sword Technique - First Form: Aurora Flash!"

Just as Aruba was about to use magic to finish off Aozaki Touko, a dazzling silver light flashed down from the twilight. Its extremely fast speed and terrifying cutting power made Araya Sōren, who was still more than ten meters away, feel terrified!

He hadn't felt this way in a long time.

"Wang Xian's 'Dai Tian's 'Ding Jing'!"

Feeling immense pressure, Araya Sōren waved his hands, immediately extending the Six Paths Barrier to its maximum extent. Golden Sanskrit characters formed a hexagonal shape to protect his body.

Even so, when the silver light collided with the Six Paths Barrier, it still suffered a tremendous impact. The force was so great that it seemed unreasonable, far exceeding the power that Araya Sōren had anticipated. As a result, he had to retreat dozens of steps in haste.

After the dust and smoke from the sword aura dissipated, Cornelius Aruba and Araya Sōren finally saw who was in the smoke.

He was an incredibly handsome young man with blood-red eyes, but beneath his good looks lay a tremendous killing intent.

Upon seeing who it was, Aozaki Touko, who had been lying on the ground unable to move, finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had accomplished some kind of mission.

"You bastard...you came just in time, I was about to die - you idiot."

Because of the severity of his injuries, the words he used to curse sounded weak and feeble.

"You're a step too late. Leave the rest to me."

"This guy..."

She wanted to say something more, but the boy in front of her was clearly not in a good mood; his usual warmth and cheerfulness were nowhere to be seen.

The aura he exuded was that of a ruthless killing machine.

"Anyway, I've completed the commission I received from you. Remember, you'll have to pay extra after you've finished this. Creating a fake magician doll is very expensive."

After leaving behind these words, the legendary Grand Doll Maker "Aozaki Touko" closed her eyes forever.

This is obviously fake, because she has countless spare dolls like these hidden in every corner of the world. This is the pinnacle of a puppeteer's skill.

"Oh, you've arrived! Matou...Aki, the heir of the Matou family, the third-generation family of Fuyuki City!"

Araya Sōren did not show any surprise after seeing the boy's appearance. After learning about his actions with Wujō Kirie in Kanbuko City, he had already thoroughly investigated the boy's identity.

The final victor of the Fourth Holy Grail War, a once-in-a-century genius of water magic, and a natural-born possessor of the Mystic Eyes—these are all pieces of information he obtained, including even hidden information such as (his physical strength and martial arts skills are comparable to those of Heroic Spirits).

Strangely, the boy seemed to have vanished into thin air a month ago.

He claimed to be going to Europe to study, but his informants in Europe couldn't find him at all, and he also disappeared without a trace in Japan.

It reappeared an hour ago.

“You seem to know me quite well, Mr. Araya.”

The boy flicked the light blue katana in his hand and responded calmly.

"Of course, after all, you..."

Suddenly, Araya Sōren's voice stopped abruptly. He stared straight at Shen Qiu, as if he had seen something extraordinary.

His eyes were filled with shock and longing!

"How is this possible? How is this possible? You actually have... on you."

Araya Sōren's voice trembled, as if he had discovered an astonishing treasure!

"Hey, Araya, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and take care of this damn brat! I can't wait to kill that bitch!"

Aruba, seeing Araya Sōren suddenly freeze beside him, urged him impatiently.

What do I have on me?

Looking at Araya Sōren, who was too shocked to speak, Shen Qiu asked with interest.

"Why... is there a connection to the Root within you? I can't be mistaken, it's true!"

"Wh...what! Araya, you can't be mistaken, can you? That brat's body is also connected to the Root!"

· ·Requesting flowers· ········

Aruba stared incredulously at the handsome boy, who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. Since when has the origin become so commonplace? There are two of them in Kanbushi City alone?

"Is it because of those demonic eyes? Demonic eyes I've never seen before. If that's the case, then it's certainly possible..."

He quickly analyzed the information about Shen Qiu's magic eye that he had purchased from the information broker. Unfortunately, this part was only briefly mentioned, with only a tentative statement that it seemed to have the effect of "dynamic vision," and nothing else was known.

"No, it's not that complicated. I just went to the Root and came back from there."

Shen Qiu's tone was very calm, as if he were talking about something commonplace.

"What are you talking about, you brat!"

Upon hearing his words, Aruba, dressed in a red suit, immediately contorted his face as if he had been offended.

"Do you even know where the Root is? It's the end of the past, present, and future. It records all the knowledge on the planet, death and rebirth, and the cause and effect of all things. How could you possibly go to such a place? Stop talking nonsense!"

"How boring. A frog that has seen the sky from the well always thinks that the sky is only so big, not realizing that it is just too stupid."

He couldn't be bothered with Aruba's sudden outburst of rage. Magicians of that caliber were like rotten fish in the Clock Tower, and they wouldn't even last three moves against Orange.

He has more important things to do now.

"Hey, Araya, you must know about my relationship with Kirie, right?"

Shen Qiu raised his head and asked in a cold voice.

"Yes, that woman has feelings for you, and you seem to have reciprocated her expectations."

"Since you know that, then things are easier for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a vast and violent magical power emanated from Shen Qiu's body. In the modern world where magical power was almost exhausted, this level of magical power was like that of a god!

"Prepare to die, Araya Sōren!"

Chapter 368: Annihilating Araya Sōren - Reunion with Sakura

"Aruba, let's go!"

It can be said that Araya Sōren was extremely decisive and without hesitation. He grabbed the blond magician who was still somewhat stunned and ran wildly along his predetermined escape route at a speed that no human could possibly reach.

"It's not that easy to leave."

Just then, a silver-haired European woman suddenly blocked Araya Souren's escape route. Although she was dressed like an ordinary high school girl, the powerful magic emanating from her made her undoubtedly a magician.

The girl's eyes were indifferent, and she showed no fear as she looked at the tall monk and the red magician who were charging towards her. If you looked closely, you could see that in the setting sun, her hands seemed to be tightly holding countless silver threads.

It is the golden needle magic passed down through the Einzbern family!

Although she lost the ability to use the Third Magic "667" due to being reborn, this body created by Shen Qiu undoubtedly possesses an EX-level magic circuit.

"Storcheritter!"

A brief German message came from Yustissa's mouth, and then hundreds of silver-blue, crystal-clear white storks soared into the sky, their sheer number almost blotting out the sun.

"Get out of my way! I have the flame in my left hand, and I have everything in my right hand!"

Aruba's magical attribute is fire, one of the five elements, and his magical characteristics are flow and release. In fact, such magical aptitude would be quite convenient if used in combat.

However, due to his inferiority complex towards Aozaki Touko and his "pride" as a member of an old European aristocratic family, he deliberately made his incantation long and tedious, so much so that the terrifying flock of white storks had already rushed up to him before he finished chanting.

"Fearless, Vajra, Heaven-Defying, Serpentine, Top Sutra, King Manifestation!"

Fortunately, Araya Sōren never relied on his assistant. After all, they had worked together for so many years, and he knew what kind of person Aruba was.
