-1129- How should I deal with you?

"Kyriiiiiiiiiiiii—!"

In the party hall of the cruise ship, Kanase Kanon was tightly bound by white chains, struggling desperately as sharp screams echoed around her.

Despite the radiant aura emanating from her, it was constantly countered by the flowing magic from the chains.

In this situation, Kanase Kanon's struggles only produced crisp clinking sounds as the chains clashed, unable to break free.

Behind her, the eyes on the three pairs of wings were wide open in anger, seemingly wanting to do something, but soon the chains wrapped around them, tightly immobilizing each feather.

Kanase Kanon was thus directly imprisoned, unable to break free.

This meant that Kanase Kanon could only surrender, completely defeated.

"How could this... how could this..."

Watching this scene, Kanase Kensei was completely shaken.

"Kanon was just one step away from sublimation, she would soon ascend to a higher-dimensional existence and become a true angel. Why did she lose to mere humans...!?"

Kanase Kensei refused to accept this fact.

With the ability to break through magic and possessing absolute invincibility, such an existence, let alone humans, might even be a match for the three Primogenitors who stand at the top of the world.

In fact, the one hailed as the closest to a primogenitor, Dimitrie Vatler, was completely helpless against Kanase Kanon, which was proof enough.

If Vatler had continued to battle Kanase Kanon as he had before, once her attack hit him, he would have been practically finished.

Of course, Vatler might eventually find a way to breach the hyper-dimensional membrane and then attack Kanase Kanon, resulting in his victory.

In other words, it was difficult to say who would win or lose in the end.

But it was undeniable that without a method to deal with the hyper-dimensional membrane, even if a Primogenitor appeared, they would only passively endure attacks and eventually be evaporated by the divine energy, ending their life.

Yet Rozen, as a mere human, not only could manipulate divine energy like an angel but also, under special conditions, connect to dimensions and send his attacks to higher dimensions.

"So, this is the 'Divine Child of Origin'...!?"

The remote control used to control Kanase Kanon finally slipped from Kanase Kensei's hand.

His two companions became agitated.

"This isn't what we agreed on! Hey!"

The female vampire shouted in frustration.

"Weren't we told that the Faux Angel is invincible? Doesn't this mean we lost? Damn it!"

The male beastman was also furious, grabbing Kanase Kensei by the collar and yelling at him.

Both of these individuals were demons employed by the Magus Craft. They had already paid a considerable price to allow the Magus Craft to obtain the ultimate weapon known as the Faux Angel.

After all, they had to provide funding and resources for Kanase Kensei's research, as well as the ritual site for the Faux Angel. These were not small costs.

As a result, for the Faux Angel to be defeated like this, how could these people accept it?

Of course, their desires had nothing to do with anyone else.

"Clap!"

An applause sounded abruptly.

"Boom!"

A shockwave burst silently.

"Ugh...!"

"Ah...!"

"Guh...!"

Kanase Kensei, the female vampire, and the male beastman were all hit by the sudden shockwave, each groaning in pain as they were blasted into the air and then fell to the ground.

Not long after, all three of them fell into the party hall of the cruise ship, rolling to the ground one by one.

"Cough... cough..."

Kanase Kensei was neither a vampire nor a beastman. Although he possessed advanced magical techniques, he only had the physique of an ordinary person. This blast and fall caused him to cough up blood, suffering greatly.

But...

"Compared to the suffering your daughter endured, this punishment is quite light."

A foot pressed down on Kanase Kensei's back, forcing him to the ground, as a cold voice spoke into his ear.

Only then did Kanase Kensei notice that there was someone else beside him, who had appeared out of nowhere.

"You know?"

Rozen extended a foot, stepping on Kanase Kensei's back and looking down at the man who was coughing up blood, showing no mercy and speaking indifferently.

"I hate people like you the most, who are willing to put humans on the experimentation table for the sake of so-called research. The last person who did this was crushed to pieces by me and thrown into the void."

Rozen exerted force on his own foot.

"So, how should I deal with you?"

Rozen's voice was filled with an ambiguous emotion, with a coldness and ruthlessness inside that made people tremble.

"..."

Kensei could only grit his teeth, feeling the continuous pressure on his back, like a foot ready to stomp out his internal organs, until finally, after a while, he seemed to give up, closing his eyes.

This meant that Kensei was ready to accept any retribution.

Rozen watched Kensei like this, raised a hand, and summoned the roaring dragon from the sky.

Believing that with just a thought, Rozen could have the dragon breathe out its breath, incinerating Kanase Kensei completely.

And Rozen was indeed prepared to do so.

But just before that...

"Wait, Nichiyo."

Someone stopped Rozen.

"Can you hand him over to me?"

La Folia slowly approached, coming to Rozen's side.

Not only La Folia but also everyone else followed suit.

"Hand him over to you?"

Rozen looked at La Folia.

"Yes." La Folia looked sincerely at Rozen, saying somewhat complicatedly, "This man is not only a former court mage of Aldegyr but also made a move against the royal bloodline, so he must receive judgment."

At these words, Rozen frowned.

Looking at Rozen like this, La Folia smiled bitterly, then leaned in close to Rozen's ear and said something.

Rozen suddenly fell silent.

"...Forget it."

The next moment, Rozen, extremely displeased, loosened his foot.

"It's up to you, I'm just meddling anyway."

Leaving behind these words, Rozen, as if losing interest in Kensei, walked towards Kanase Kanon's direction.

The others also looked at each other and followed Rozen.

"Roar!"

The dragon hovering above the cruise ship roared, and then, like a mirage, its figure swayed and finally disappeared.

At the scene, only La Folia and Kanase Kensei remained.

"You lost, Kensei."

La Folia looked at Kensei, who was lying on the ground, and sighed like this.

Kanase Kensei remained silent, just staring in the direction of Kanase Kanon, who was struggling constantly, until finally, as if losing strength, he closed his eyes.
