At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

"I can't beat a fourth-tier opponent! But I can't beat a third-tier opponent like you! I'll blow you all up!"

Rin Tohsaka unleashed a powerful surge of rock element, combining gem magic and elemental power to continuously build protective shields around herself while simultaneously firing gems from her hands.

After the gem left his hand, it seemed to transform into a sniper bullet, striking the third-tier Fallen at supersonic speed.

boom--

An explosion powerful enough to collapse a skyscraper erupts instantly.

However, the battle was not one-on-one. The battlefield was ever-changing. Several dark figures appeared around Rin Tohsaka in the blink of an eye. Rin Tohsaka gritted her teeth and tried her best to dodge, while constantly shooting out gems.

Whoosh—boom—

"Ah—" Rin Tohsaka was completely unaware of when she failed to dodge the attack. An impact came from her waist, tearing apart the barrier formed by the rock element and the protection of the gem magic. Her vision kept spinning.

When her vision stopped shaking, she was lying in a pile of rubble, which was a huge granite block that she had smashed.

"Cough! Damn it!" Rin Tohsaka stood up, blood dripping from the corner of her mouth, clutching her bleeding waist. The black aura in her vision was rapidly expanding, instantly erecting a rock element barrier. She frantically threw out gems as if they were free.

hum~

The thrown gems shone with dazzling, multicolored light.

"burst!"

boom------

The flames from the magical explosion obscured everything in front of Rin Tohsaka's vision.

She's no longer the novice fighter she used to be.

Although the speed of a third-tier superhuman does not exceed the speed of sound, it is still so fast that the eyes cannot react, especially the fallen ones. Third-tier fallen ones can generally reach the threshold of the fourth tier.

Although she is at the peak of the third tier, her actual combat strength is at the fourth tier when combined with her 'Gem Magic'.

"Damn it, damn it—" Rin Tohsaka gritted her teeth and took out all the gems on her body: "Gem Fusion!"

hum~

Dozens of gems emitted colorful light in front of her, forming a colorful vortex, and then merged together to become a crystal dagger.

The key to gem magic is that the more gems a magician has, the greater its power.

With her current abilities, if given enough gems, she could even imitate the light cannon of a fifth-tier superhuman.

"Pseudo-Gemstone Sword!"

tear-

At that moment, the flames from the explosion ahead were torn apart by the black smoke, and three dark figures rushed towards Rin Tohsaka.

"You sewer rats! Witness the true power of gem magic!" Rin Tohsaka gritted her teeth as she gripped the newly fused pseudo-gem sword.

A powerful surge of rock elemental energy, along with magic, was infused into the pseudo-gem sword, which then fused its inherent magic with the three energies.

hum~

Rin Tohsaka swung her sword at the three third-tier Fallen Ones who had reached her.

A dazzling burst of colorful magical light erupted, forming a colorful energy slash.

With a tearing sound, the chest of the first third-tier Fallen One was ripped open, and he was sent flying backward by the slash.

The remaining two Fallen Ones had already approached her from the left and right. Black energy surged from all directions like strangulation chains, while sharp claws aimed straight for Rin Tohsaka's head, neck, and heart.

"Die! You damned superhumans! Hahahaha!"

"A peak third-tier transcendent being can actually unleash a fourth-tier attack! But he's going to die, hahahaha!"

"Damn it!" Rin Tohsaka swung her pseudo-jewel sword at the Fallen on the right, trying her best to dodge the Fallen's fatal attack on the left.

boom--

The fallen one on the left was struck directly in the head by the colorful energy slash, his head was blown apart, and the energy shock sent his body flying backward. The energy slash continued to cut forward, instantly cleaving the tsunami-like waves to form a gap a kilometer long.

boom!

However, the devastating blow that Rin Tohsaka had imagined did not come. Instead, a piercing sound of air tearing apart exploded in her ears as the Fallen One blocked the two-handed axe imbued with wind element.

"Aaaaaahhhhhh—" The girl's scream, accompanied by wind elements, burst forth from the dust not far away. Rin Tohsaka realized that it was this girl who had thrown an axe from a distance to interrupt the Fallen One's attack.

"Tohsaka-senpai!"

"Huh—" Rin Tohsaka was about to thank the girl for saving her when she saw the two Fallen Ones chasing after her, and her expression instantly froze.

There were two fourth-tier superhumans and more than forty third-tier superhumans participating in this operation, all of whom were in the later stages. Second-tier superhumans were not qualified to participate.

Although there is only one fourth-tier among the Fallen, there are seventeen third-tier individuals.

A fourth-order Fallen is comparable to a fifth-order Fallen, but they don't actually reach the fifth order. It's just that the Seven Deadly Sins restrain the extraordinary and will continuously weaken the extraordinary's power.

The same applies to the third-tier Fallen Ones. They are comparable to the fourth-tier Fallen Ones, but they do not reach the fourth-tier level in terms of physical strength and reaction speed; they are only close.

If we disregard the influence of the Seven Deadly Sins on extraordinary individuals, they are only slightly stronger than extraordinary individuals of the same level, not to the point of overwhelming them.

Therefore, when facing a fallen person, the best course of action is to fight with all your might immediately and not delay, otherwise the longer it goes on, the more one side will gain the upper hand.

Moreover, the longer these fallen ones fight, the less rational they become, eventually turning them into completely insane monsters who only know how to kill.

Thump~ Thump~ Thump~

"The effects have already begun..." Rin Tohsaka reacted instantly, her heart felt like it was going to jump out of her chest, countless desires surrounded her, and her eyes were dazed.

The pebbles on the ground look like gemstones?

The jewelry store has so many gems! So many gems! Why shouldn't they belong to me?

Mine! All the jewels are mine!

Snapped!

Rin Tohsaka instantly raised her hand and slapped herself across the face. The pain cleared her head a little, and her back teeth clenched together with a cracking sound. At that moment, the Fallen One, whose attack had been interrupted by her junior's axe, roared and reached for her neck.

The junior student, now unarmed, was not far away, and the Fallen Ones behind her roared as they pounced on her.

I want to die, I want to die, I want to die, I want to die, I want to die...

Just then, three bolts of purple lightning, as thick as buckets, descended from the sky.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three bolts of lightning, as thick as water buckets, struck precisely on the heads of the three third-tier Fallen Ones, engulfing them.

A powerful, angry shout echoed through the sky.

[Spell: Divine Shelter's Protective Shade!]

[Incantation: Wild Sparrow Spell - Inari!]

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--

The Fallen One let out a hysterical roar, and black evil energy continuously erupted from its body, passively resisting the lightning that was falling from the sky and constantly weakening its power.

"We're here! We won't die!" Rin Tohsaka looked up when she heard the voice, and was completely exhausted when she saw the shrine maiden in mid-air, who was covered in lightning.

They finally made it here. If they had been any slower, she would have really died.

Although the island is not large, it is home to one-third of Japan's fallen ones, numbering over a hundred, though most are at the first or second tier.

Inaba Chitose, who led the encirclement, drew the attention of the Fallen Ones as they stormed the island, then set up a spell to trap the island and prevent any of the Fallen Ones from escaping.

"Just a Fallen One at the early stage of the third tier! Suppress!" Inaba Chitose roared, his hands constantly making hand seals, and lightning elemental power surged forth.

Runes appeared in his hand, forming three fox-shaped bolts of lightning, which then blasted towards the three fallen ones.

After emerging from the dungeon and assisting two African leaders in clearing out monsters from North and Central Africa, she had already advanced to the early stage of the fourth tier.

Upon returning to Japan, he continued his investigation into the Fallen Ones, during which he killed more than five Tier 3 Fallen Ones. He overcame many desires and understood what he wanted to protect, thus advancing to the peak of Tier 4.

It's only a matter of time before she advances to the fifth rank.

With the power of a fourth-tier peak cultivator combined with the fox spirit spell taught to her by an eighth-tier master, her strength had completely reached the threshold of the fifth tier.

Dealing with a third-tier Fallen One is, if not an instant kill, then a piece of cake.

"Damn superhumans! Hahahaha! You think you can kill us?"

The Fallen roared and laughed maniacally amidst the lightning strikes, finally opening their arms as if welcoming something.

"Great King Beelzebub, the Demon King of Gluttony! We have arrived!"

"Hell is our final destination! Hahahaha!"

"When we become the greatest demons of hell, we'll be back! Hahahaha!"

The three fallen ones turned to ashes in the lightning.

The violent tremors shattered the island's land, and shockwaves spread outwards from the island's center.

The ear-piercing roars and the clanging of metal rang out like firecrackers, as black meteors and purple lightning chased and collided, each collision producing an explosion that could easily destroy a city block.

"Die! Damn it! Die! You're only a fourth-tier! I'm comparable to a fifth-tier! Why aren't you dead yet!" The fourth-tier Fallen's hands had already demonized, turning into jet-black claws that gleamed with a metallic sheen, attacking Mimi Hibiki without any strategy.

However, every attack was blocked by the purple katana in Mimi Hibiki's hand.

"It's this knife! Why do you all get to possess such a divine weapon?! Aaaaaah—"

Mimi Hibiki dared not relax for even a moment, her focus was extremely high, and the purple katana in her hand was so fast that it formed a sword curtain around her.

Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding—

This sword was bestowed upon him by Lord Narukami when he advanced to the fourth rank. It is called "Mist-Cutting Reflection" and is a weapon that is strong enough to support a sixth-rank legendary user.

Even though he is only at the peak of the fourth rank now, holding this sword can enhance his strength in all aspects, allowing him to barely reach the threshold of the fifth rank.

Of course, this is mainly because he simply cannot fully unleash the power of 'Mist Slicer's Return'; only at the fifth rank can it truly exert its power.

This knife also reflects his confidence in being able to fight against a fourth-tier Fallen being comparable to a fifth-tier Fallen.

"Why? Hehehe, of course it's because I stand on the side of justice!" Mimi Hibiki shouted excitedly, his eyes gradually turning red: "My heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is for justice!"

As soon as he uttered those words, Miki Hibiki's mind suddenly went blank. In that moment of daze, the Fallen One's attack broke through his sword barrier, sharp claws pierced through his right chest, passed right through his chest, and he was hit hard in the abdomen. He was sent flying like a cannonball.

"Pfft—" Mimi Hibiki spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air, the pain bringing him back to his senses.

Just now... I was affected by the Seven Deadly Sins...

I could never say such arrogant things.
