People often say that when you can't make a decision, try tossing a coin; the answer will come in an instant.

For Xia Youjie, the coin probably represents the burning village before his eyes.

He had imagined doing this in his mind, in countless nightmares.

but--

When reality happens before your eyes.

People screamed in front of him.

he......

(Not a trace of sadness.)

(I just felt... incredibly happy...)

Reality helped him arrive at the answer.

The corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.

He longed to do so.

He longed for the power that would drive him to surpass the monkeys.

He longed to trample on these ungrateful beasts.

He longed for their deaths.

This is a reality that cannot be escaped or avoided.

Having clearly understood his own feelings, Xia Youjie made a decision.

"But in any case—"

Xia Youjie turned to look at Haibara.

What is your purpose?

"Hey?"

A look of surprise appeared on Haibara's face, followed by an unnatural blush.

Really? Did you figure it out so quickly? And it seems—

"Didn't I already say I'm from the Panxing Cult—"

"Stop joking. Just look at your spell power and control level. A sorcerer of your caliber is definitely not someone the Panxing Cult can control." A smile remained on his face, like a thin, fragile layer of ice. "You're not part of the Panxing Cult... or rather, even if you are, you're the mastermind behind all this, aren't you?"

"Since you can be resurrected using Haibara's body, you can also use someone else's body. In addition, the only suspects are the high-ranking members of the Jujutsu family and the three founding families. You're not some old guy from hundreds of years ago, are you?"

...That's really surprising.

"You've calmed down so quickly? Haha, it's a shame I went to so much trouble to piece this child's lower body back together."

"...Ah, and I'm also very sure what I want to do right now."

Xia Youjie looked at 'Haibara'.

"Since you dare to use my junior's corpse, then you should be prepared to die—I hope your ability is something like 'manipulating corpse puppets,' rather than your own consciousness attaching to it."

"Wait, wait!"

Haibara quickly raised her hand, forcing a smile, her eyes revealing an undisguised wavering, yet she insisted on appearing calm and composed.

"You've also realized that I'm not that weak. It wouldn't be good to fight here, would it?"

"Even if you beat me, it won't mean anything."

"Let's make a deal."

"You've decided to abandon your specialization in pyromancy, haven't you—I'll help you."

"As a price..."

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

.....

The effects in the field expanded rapidly.

In less than half a breath, the boundaries of the domain had already expanded to include half of the entire steel plant.

Simmel instantly felt the cursed power attached to her body transform into a tangible effect.

—It's weight.

Sizzle——————

The ground beneath their feet instantly cracked open with numerous trenches, which quickly spread out from a single point.

(Realizing that it was impossible to directly apply the spell to the [monk], it shifted the target of the spell to the ground beneath my feet?)

The loose surface soil layer disintegrates at a visible rate, crushing into powder and combining with the minerals located further down.

boom!--!----

The immense force of gravity caused it to collapse, creating a dark abyss, where rubble and mineral dust burst forth in a whirlwind of fury under the terrifying pressure.

Simmel's figure was instantly swallowed up.

"........"

At this moment, Xia Youjie, who was also covered by the domain, looked horrified.

The opponent's domain was clearly not the type used by any cursed spirit he had ever seen before; it was arguably worlds apart.

Scale, level, and level of sophistication.

Even though he was included within the domain, the domain's effects did not affect him. Unlike the Herpes God, who possessed rules, Xia Youjie was able to clearly realize that this was due to Haibara Yu modifying the domain's conditions.

It's obvious how high-level this barrier technique is. The opponent's move is not simply a matter of 'stepping into the domain,' but rather their strength is far more unpredictable.

I glanced at the spot where Simmel had been; it had become a large crater, and I couldn't see anyone there.

And more importantly...

"Thanks to you, senior—"

"enough."

Xia Youjie looked at the familiar face in front of him and made no attempt to hide his disgust.

"Don't talk to me like Haibara does, Oolong!"

Liao Ao

A sorcerer born a thousand years ago.

His/her ability allows him/her to exchange his/her brain with another person's brain and completely control the other person's body.

He traveled the world under many identities, committing numerous crimes with his fanatical belief in sorcery, and was once known as the "most evil sorcerer in history".

Xia You was unaware of this information.

The two had only a brief exchange and knew each other's names.

Subsequently, a unilateral contract was formed.

Despite having the appearance of Haibara Yu, he didn't comment much on Xia Youjie's rude attitude, but just shrugged and smiled.

Keeping your hands in the mudra, continue speaking.

"Thanks to you, you figured out the timing of all of Simmel's skill switching, which allowed me to use my domain to restrict him so precisely."

As the mastermind behind this incident.

Everything the other party did was aimed at college students, with Xia Youjie being the most targeted.

He wouldn't let Xia Youjie be taken away by Simmel here, so he had already set up a plan: if Xia Youjie was no match for Simmel, he would take over the battlefield at the right time.

Xia Youjie knew this, but didn't respond, instead changing the subject.

"...Your field is truly unique."

"Oh, you mean boundary conditions, right?"

Haibara Yu tilted his head slightly, "My domain has no boundaries, so the speed of my spell expansion is much faster than that of a conventional domain, and can even be described as 'without delay'."

“However—” A slight smile played on his lips, “It is precisely because of this that I was able to restrict Simmel’s spell.”

【monk】

Information about this technique, over this long period of time, has been lost to time.

(Although the specific principle is unknown, the core effect of the technique should be 'purification' rather than 'counterattack'.)

That's right.

Although the [Monk] could directly annihilate the domain of the God of Herpes, those who witnessed that battle...

The essence of a domain is to bring techniques to life in reality.

The "monk" simply 'purifies the curse'.

The reason the domain is destroyed is simply because the domain itself falls under the category of sorcery.

However, the [Monk] seems to be closer to the Reversal Spell, focusing more on self-purification, while its effectiveness on external objects is significantly reduced.

The ability to destroy a domain is simply due to the instability of the domain structure of the Herpes God itself; the domains of other, more skilled sorcerers are unlikely to collapse so easily.

Moreover, the old Yu, the slanting words, and the lingering sounds of the past were all present.

Even if an area is annihilated, it cannot achieve 'overlay', so the [Monk] cannot take effect, but can only negate the guaranteed hit effect after use.

Therefore, the dice are played, the scissors are used, the blade is broken, the blue is pierced, the joy of the companion is gone, the money is sent, the protection is ensured, the brewing is done, the multitude is gone, the machine is used, the steps are used, the alliance is formed, and the distance is far, the scissors are used, the steps are not full, the blue is pierced, the source is coughed, the pine trees are torn apart.

This way, the effect of [Monk] can be bypassed, thus suppressing Simmel.

Although Simmel can 'fly,' that's something only a 'magician' can do.

However, once you switch back to [Mage], you will lose the [Monk]'s 'domain cancellation'.

This creates a closed loop.

While it wasn't expected to kill Simmel outright, it should at least keep him trapped for a considerable time.
