My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

5th level...

It sounds too far away.

Only by witnessing it firsthand can one truly touch and truly feel it.

What kind of exaggerated power is this...?

"husband!!"

At the same time, Vera, who had emerged from the sea of ​​fire, shouted excitedly, "I knew you would come to save me!!"

She had clearly used the power of the Dreamer to forcefully shield herself from the scorching heat of this sea of ​​fire.

After his thoughts were interrupted, the Snow Knight turned to look at the pink-haired girl with an incredulous expression.

The other members of the night patrol were too late to arrive.

Unexpectedly, this hysterical patient arrived here first.

This woman is insane...

Seeing that more and more spectators were arriving, Weiss decided not to delay any longer.

After mentally rehearsing the movement several times, he issued the final command to the person moving in the opposite direction.

"Snap—"

As the domain of those going against the grain shifts.

The inner double rings in the flow were frozen in place and completely locked. At the same time, the outermost wind ring shell was released in one fell swoop.

As those going against the flow fixate on their target, the situation becomes misaligned.

The sun arrow, which had been held captive by the life-giving card for a long time, immediately broke free of its restraints and pierced through the entire gale force field in an instant.

"Shh!"

Strangely, the arrow failed to pierce through the wind for a long time, instead mysteriously disappearing into the wind field.

It was as if they had been erased from the world out of thin air.

The Snow Knight's expression froze completely.

Several kilometers apart, Nefertir and her Rain-Traveling Aunt, who had somehow ended up on the clock tower of Brightmoon City, also looked dazed.

After exhaling a deep breath, the woman in blue narrowed her eyes.

"My guess was right after all..."

"This isn't a flash of light, it's—"

"Void!!!"

"Only the void can unleash such a move!!"

"..."

"..."

"Swish swish swish swish swish—"

At this moment, outsiders could no longer understand this phenomenon, but Weiss himself could still clearly feel the arrow flying wildly in front of him.

To be precise, it was frantically circulating within the endless double rings he had woven himself.

However, apart from him, the weather master, no one else could sense the shape of the wind, so they couldn't see the arrows within it.

"That's about it..."

Weiss was completely focused.

The domain of the person going against the flow was shrunk again, creating a crack in this infinite double ring.

"BOOM!!!!!"

next second.

The sun arrow that had vanished into thin air was suddenly expelled again by the wind field.

This time, it did not land in Moonlit City.

Instead, after its trajectory was reversed, it soared into the sky with the intense pressure of burning flames.

Straight up to the sky above where it came from—

Return via the same route!

Like a small comet flying backwards, it disappeared from the sight of everyone in Moonlit City in a few flashes.

"..."

"..."

The sun arrow returned to the sky with terrifying speeds hundreds of times faster than sound.

The terrifying commotion and sonic boom that followed finally exploded across the street where everyone was.

"boom--"

The raging inferno that had already engulfed most of the city block was instantly extinguished by the aftershocks of the blast wave, leaving not a single spark behind.

However, the cost of this clash between high-level superhumans was also considerable.

Within a radius of more than a dozen blocks, dozens of noble mansions and branches of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce collapsed one after another with cracking sounds, raising clouds of dust and broken bricks.

Once that shockwave completely subsided.

The once brightly lit and extravagant Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce is now in a state of utter chaos.

However, even more unsettling than the ruins scattered across the ground was the unbelievable scene that had just unfolded—

That solar arrow, comparable in size to a small meteorite, was somehow repelled...

For a moment, whether they were nobles who had survived the disaster or members of the night patrol who were still in shock, they all froze on the spot, staring dumbfounded at the fiery clouds that were gradually dispersing in the sky.

Only the Chamber of Commerce leader, Zell, sat slumped dejectedly on a patch of charred ruins.

He stared blankly at his once magnificent Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce, now reduced to a charred skeleton, his lips trembling for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

Floating in mid-air.

The Star Clock at the Ninth Hour, which had already concealed half of its body within the golden clock and was ready to make a graceful exit at any moment, was slightly dazed after witnessing this scene.

He subconsciously floated forward a distance, looking down at the chaotic street from a height of several hundred meters.

then.

He then saw the mysterious figure wearing a white trench coat.

It was none other than the person whose video had been projected countless times at the Star Clock headquarters—

The expression on his face froze at the ninth moment.

"Bright, bright moon Thunder Emperor..."

He murmured the name in a hoarse voice.

He was stunned for a few seconds in mid-air before he suddenly came to his senses and realized that his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

He frantically pulled a delicate box the size of a palm from his pocket and hurriedly threw it towards the direction of the Moon Thunder Emperor from a distance of several hundred meters.

"...?"

What does it mean?

Is this guy trying to use some forbidden artifact of deus ex machina to test his skills against me, the Moon Goddess?

Could this be something like a prison gate?

I hope I don't actually mess things up...

Just as Weiss was secretly on guard, preparing to activate the Wind Ring again—

At the critical moment.

The World Book's exploration level instantly surged to 74% the moment it sensed the small box.

Weiss: ......

I see, it's a good product.

Only then did he calmly disperse the wind rings, steadily engulfing the small box within them. He then raised his eyes and calmly looked at the Ninth Hour, which was suspended in mid-air.

The moment their eyes met.

At the ninth moment, feeling a chill run down his spine, he hurriedly and stammered an explanation:

"This, this is an apology..."

"The purpose of my visit to Moonlit City is to apologize to you!!"

After uttering this nonsense, he felt like crying but had no tears left.

When he arrived, Xingzhong was still confidently saying that he would win over the Thunder Emperor of the Moon.

This amount of treasure definitely shows considerable sincerity.

That's not actually the case...

When this legendary fifth-order end sequence truly stood before me.

It wasn't until the ninth moment that he was horrified to discover that his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

He was a seventh-level transcendent being.

Before the legendary fifth tier, it was as fragile and powerless as a newborn baby...

It was as if speaking an extra word would instantly result in being shot down by a blinding flash of light, along with a string of stars in the sky being randomly wiped out.

The mental torment of constantly teetering on the edge of death is truly terrifying.

Under the trembling gaze of the ninth quarter, the Moon Thunder Emperor accepted the apology and then looked away, seemingly no longer harboring any murderous intent.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

The Snow Knight glanced strangely at the sweating Ninth Hour, feeling somewhat speechless.

"I thought you came to Moonlit City with some kind of conspiracy, but it turns out you've come here to beg for mercy?"

"Is this all the Star Bell team has to offer...?"

Below, after Weiss put the treasure into his pocket, he had no intention of lingering any longer.

If my identity is exposed, it will be troublesome.

Too many words will be lost.

However, just as Weiss turned around, he was stopped by a voice.

"husband!!"

"Honey, wait for me!!"

The pink-haired girl chased after them, her face flushed, as she dug through the rubble.

She quickly ran up behind Weiss, her face flushed with excitement, and said:

"Honey, I haven't come to see you these past few days. How about that? Am I a good girl?"

Weiss: ......

You're talking nonsense.

They were even planning to test me by placing that arrow.

Now they're pretending to be well-behaved.

Weiss cursed inwardly, but outwardly remained calm, lowering his voice and speaking in a deliberately deep and melancholic tone:

"Love Letter Communication"

The words fell.

He didn't look at Vera again and slowly walked towards the street corner.

The figure faded further and further away in the swirling dust and mist.

In the end, it simply disappeared completely from everyone's sight.
