-91- Let someone else handle it

After a while, Rozen and his companions left the vicinity of the shrine and returned to the dark forest. They moved a bit further away from the Enenra to avoid detection and sat down under a tall tree nearby.

At this moment, everyone seemed lost and couldn't speak.

Even Akabane Raishin muttered to himself, "Now I can't let Rozen go inside to find the token. What should I do now?"

Perhaps he intended to repeat what happened during the day, persuading Rozen to enter the shrine and then guiding him to find the token, thereby becoming Domon Hinowa's fiancé.

Fortunately, Yuge Mutsura and Kamo Subaru didn't hear this, or else another commotion would ensue.

Meanwhile, Domon Hinowa was trying to convince Yuge Mutsura and Kamo Subaru again.

"Mutsura, Subaru, let's go back. Don't try to find the token."

She spoke with a worried expression.

As a Shikigami User manipulating familiars, even Akabane Raishin could understand how terrifying Enenra was, let alone Domon Hinowa.

"Unless Grandma's Shuten-douji comes, it's nearly impossible to find a familiar that can match Enenra in the Izanagi Clan."

Domon Hinowa reasoned with Yuge Mutsura and Kamo Subaru.

Clearly, she didn't believe that the people present could enter the shrine and retrieve the artifact.

Moreover, she had been trying to persuade her companions to leave, making it even less likely that she'll approve Yuge Mutsura and Kamo Subaru to go after the token.

And what's more, Yuge Mutsura and Kamo Subaru also couldn't find any reasons to counter Domon Hinowa's persuasion.

It wasn't because they were too timid, but because Enenra was truly a force beyond what a group of ten-year-olds could handle.

Even Rozen couldn't do it.

"If I don't have a Servant I can command, with my current abilities, it's indeed quite impossible to defeat Enenra," Rozen admitted helplessly.

The difference between upper-level familiars and middle-level familiars was immense. Even though Rozen had already mastered five of the Eight technique and could better support his familiars, defeating an upper-level familiar like Enenra with a group of middle-level familiars was still very difficult.

"If all my magic circuits were activated, and I had sufficient mana, then I could compensate for some of the combat power with numbers"

For example, with the Ant Familiars, by summoning hundreds of them, their combined strength could rival an upper-level familiar. They could even held down Berserker from Fuyuki City for a while, let alone Enenra.

But there was a problem...

"Enenra has no physical form," which meant that ordinary physical attacks would be ineffective against it.

Even if Rozen's magic circuits were fully activated, and he had enough mana to summon numerous familiars, without targeted attack methods, it would still be impossible to defeat the familiar.

In terms of difficulty, Enenra might even surpass Shuten-douji summoned by Domon Kira.

This was precisely why everyone was at a loss.

"Why would someone from the Izanagi Clan go to such lengths to prevent their princess from marrying into the Akabane Clan?"

At this point, Rozen started feeling somewhat displeased.

Though he knew the decision was made by Domon Kira and the undisclosed arrangement between the Izanagi Clan and the Akabane Clan, those unaware of these details within the Izanagi Clan must have been against this engagement, leading to their current actions.

"Of course, Enenra might have been set up by Domon Kira."

If that were the case, there must be some intriguing meaning behind it.

Rozen had never intended to get involved in the matters between the Izanagi Clan and the Akabane Clan. Now, it seemed that this situation was more complicated than he had imagined.

"What exactly are these two families up to?"

For the first time, Rozen felt the urge to investigate the secrets of both clans.

At this moment, Yuge Mutsura and Kamo Subaru, who had been persuaded by Domon Hinowa, also reacted.

"Hey, Akabane folks," Kamo Subaru suddenly spoke coldly, "You've seen it too. There's no way we can pass through the shrine. You should just give up on this trial."

He spoke with a displeased tone.

"Subaru..." Yuge Mutsura opened his mouth but eventually decided not to say anything.

He knew that Kamo Subaru had also given up on this attempt.

Otherwise, Kamo Subaru would have competed with Rozen and Akabane Raishin in a fair contest instead of trying to persuade them to give up.

And as long as everyone gave up, with no one obtaining the token, there might be a chance to change the situation of Domon Hinowa's marriage.

"Even if you don't give up, it won't matter," Kamo Subaru said gloomily. "With Enenra there, none of you can get the token from the shrine."

That was the current situation.

Although Akabane Raishin frowned, he did not argue back.

Even though Akabane Raishin hadn't mastered magic and knew little about the magical world, he was always clever and had a keen intuition. Even without a deep understanding, he knew the immense threat posed by Enenra.

At least, Akabane Raishin didn't believe he had a way to bypass Enenra, enter the shrine, and retrieve the artifact.

"Narugami," Akabane Raishin inquired inquisitively, and all eyes turned to him, wanting to know if the young prodigy from the Akabane clan could overcome the current situation.

Even Domon Hinowa secretly looked at him with a searching expression.

Rozen pondered for a moment before speaking up, "Well, there is a way."

His response left everyone in the room exchanging surprised glances. There's actually a way?

"You…"

Kamo Subaru was about to say something, but Rozen interrupted, "I know what you're thinking. You believe I'm overestimating myself and have no chance against Enenra, right?"

Rozen spoke confidently, "Indeed, I can't deal with Enenra on my own."

He had to admit that much.

But then he added, "But just because I can't handle it doesn't mean someone else can't."

Rozen's words puzzled everyone in the room.

"You mean to let someone else deal with it?" Kamo Subaru asked, surprised.

"Yes," Rozen confirmed, "I can't handle Enenra myself, but I can have someone else handle it for me."

This statement surprised everyone in the room.

"Have someone else handle it?" They were all taken aback.

Rozen's gaze swept across everyone present, and then he made his request.

"Would you all help me with a favor?"

After explaining his plan, the group's expressions changed, and they began to argue and shout, creating chaos.

But in the end, a single sentence from Domon Hinowa made them agree to implement this plan.

Domon Hinowa said with an uneasy voice, "I... I can try."

His hesitant words laid the foundation for the execution of the plan.
