The brave Simmel wants to resign

Shi Liulong muttered, "Stop being sarcastic," and Xia Youjie had to confront his own feelings at that moment.

Why did you let the black egret and the stone dragon go?

Perhaps it's because... he also wanted to try being a gentle person.

I almost took the wrong path in the past. Even though my companions pulled me back from stepping on it, I could still glimpse the other side of that road.

It is precisely because that is a future that is not something to be imagined or that is not a bright one that... that I want to try to change myself.

Such 'gentleness' may just be a form of self-deception.

but--

"If it were Simmel, he might do that."

"Huh? Who is that? I feel like I just heard that name too?" Shi Liulong asked, puzzled, but he regretted it as soon as he asked. He scratched his head in frustration. "Ha—never mind, I don't care."

"What you think is your business. I'm just here to fight."

"If I haven't had enough fun, I won't listen to you. Even if I've had enough fun, I don't necessarily have to listen!"

He turned to the side, raised his arm, and hooked his index finger inward toward Xia Youjie, his chin slightly raised, his eyes full of expectation.

"Let me see what you've got."

"May I have a little more?"

A forlorn look in his eyes.

[A hungry gaze]

A naturally occurring stomach.

This led to hunger.

What teaches you about acute gastroenteritis is...

"...Okay—the water clock."

Xia Youjie didn't turn around; he knew the cursed spirit could hear him.

He was prepared long ago.

boom!

The water clock, clutching and protecting the real person, was furious!

The volcano spewed out heat, and even the sides of the ears emitted scorching streams of heat.

"You bastard!!! How dare you injure a real person!"

"You're a cursed spirit, right? Then what do you like to do with your family?" Shi Liulong was eager to get his hands on someone, but he still didn't hold back with his words.

Even now, after experiencing the expansion of the domain and entering a state of spell meltdown and reduced output, Stone Flow Dragon is still confident in defeating Leaky Pot.

"Do you want to expand your domain?" Shi Liulong laughed wildly.

Come on!

At this moment, Shi Liulong is unable to continuously deploy his domain.

However—as a powerful figure from 400 years ago, he possesses the means to contend with domains.

【Mixu Gelong】

[The prototype of the simplified domain can negate the guaranteed hit effect of the spell.]

Unlike the Simple Domain, the Mixu Gelong can maintain its "counter-attack" efficiency by "forming hand seals," meaning it cannot be easily stripped away by the domain.

【certainly.】

With most sorcerers' hands bound, they are practically rendered incapable of combat. Therefore, even if they can form hand seals, it creates a significant burden in battle.

[But Shi Liulong is an exception.]

He... doesn't need to use his hands as a medium to release the spell.

"Hey!"

Shi Liulong, his fighting spirit was palpable.

The man named Shi Liulong's techniques can be released from any part of his body. This means that he is not only immune to domain meltdown, but can also launch a counterattack while remaining unaffected by the opponent's domain.

In battles of the same level... it's pure, unadulterated power.

(Come, cursed spirit!)

(Let me eat my fill!)

Faced with that burning gaze, Xia Youjie—

(I see, this guy must have some kind of domain-based countermeasures.)

Almost simultaneously, they realized this.

Xia Youjie, who was relatively good at thinking and supporting in battle, guessed Shi Liulong's trump card.

While marveling at the opponent's strength, Xia Youjie couldn't help but feel delighted.

(As expected, after obtaining the points, it is necessary to win them over and inject fresh... old but useful blood into the world of sorcery!)

Great! I can work less overtime now!

Realize this.

Xia Youjie, you're on fire!

But what should we do?

(First of all—the confrontation of domains is a misconception. Not only does it consume a lot of magical power, but it will also cause your side to suffer from spell meltdown.)

(If it were a life-or-death battle, I'd probably be really troubled, right?)

Xia Youjie stared intently at Shi Liulong, a smirk playing on his lips.

(But since you want to achieve satisfaction—)

"Then let's have a head-on firepower contest."

The power of the water clock lies in its concentrated output of powerful incantation energy, its incantational power—all of this ——————

They couldn't catch up with Shi Liulong.

But....

There is one thing we can catch up with, and even surpass.

"The Ultimate Chapter".

"what!"

Shi Liulong watched in astonishment as the water clock began to rise into the air.

The space was shattered by turbulence, and high-density "points" rose up within it, sucking in all the broken stones and bricks.

The ground was stripped away, revealing deeply embedded iron railings, road signs, and even innocent cars and shop goods.

Everything was drawn toward the sky.

Sparks surged, swirled, intertwined, compressed, and converged.

In the end, it transformed into a massive, raging mountain, and on its surface, tongues of flame constantly rolled and swirled, distorting the atmosphere.

"The only thing that the water clock can defeat you is the depth of its technique itself."

As a cursed spirit, it is naturally suited to curses.

The clepsydra has reached its limit in its own fire magic.

It symbolizes that ultimate skill.

【The Ultimate Chapter: Fallen】

But that's not enough—

"This is the highest standard, get it ready!"

Xia Youjie waved his arm.

"Tamamo-mae."

A round-faced, imaginary spirit dressed in a kimono.

"Spell: Killing Stone".

As the ring descended from the sky and enveloped the water clock, the power of the water clock technique began to surge rapidly!

Boom! Boom!

This is a tactic that Xia Youjie used when he fought against Simmel ten years ago.

[Maximum firepower output]

[This works in conjunction with Tamamo-no-Mae's enhanced techniques.]

This will create... a map-rewriting, a world-destroying blow.

On the roof, Shi Liulong's airplane-shaped hairpin was slightly ruffled by the wind.

He stood there, head tilted back, the flames of the giant sphere in mid-air staining his entire face red. The scalding heat rushed towards him, but there was no fear in his eyes; instead, a fervent smile slowly...ignited within him.

His leather jacket was wide open, billowing high in the strong wind.

"Hey Hey hey!!!"

"This is... way too sweet!!!"

Cannon vs. Meteorite?

—That moment.

[Shi Liulong recalled real, tangible memories.]

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

As a child, Shi Liulong, who had awakened his magic, was so talented that he was cherished and pampered by everyone.

Everyone says I'm a genius!
