"— — —"
Rozen's whole body seemed to be frozen, and he was frozen in place.
Behind him, the puppet named Sickle raised its sickle high, aimed at his neck, and slashed fiercely.
There was no doubt that it was an attack that could take a human's life.
As the puppet controlled by Rozen, Ye Ye was stopped by the puppet named Dragonfly.
The puppet stretched out its hand toward Ye Ye, and magical power fluctuated between its hands.
In the face of all this, Ye Ye chose to ignore it.
"Get out of the way for Ye Ye!"
After Ye Ye shouted, she gathered the power of her whole body and released a thunderous kick at Dragonfly.
Rozen wanted to tell Ye Ye.
"Don't attack!"
Because the puppet named Dragonfly was obviously sure to block Ye Ye's attack, so it was sent by Akabane Tenzen.
With Akabane Tenzen's ability, after seeing Ye Ye's power that was enough to overwhelm Ye Ye, he still sent Dragonfly to attack Ye Ye, which was enough to show that Akabane Tenzen had the confidence to deal with Ye Ye.
In this case, it was too irrational for Ye Ye to attack rashly.
If Rozen still had the strength, he would definitely use Coercive Domination to make Ye Ye cancel the attack.
But Akabane Tenzen seemed to have calculated this point. He did not hesitate to transfer Sickle, who was almost unable to get up, to Rozen's back and launched a fatal blow to Rozen.
In this way, how could Rozen have the strength to manipulate Ye Ye?
After all, he had just begun to manipulate Ye Ye. Even if his ability was superb, he had not cultivated any tacit understanding with Ye Ye. Naturally, he couldn't do that many things at the same time.
"Bang …!"
Rozen was speechless. Without thinking too much, he concentrated his magical power on himself and used Magic Defense.
Clang!
A Telekinesis Shield engraved with magic arrays unfolded behind Rozen.
Rozen's Magic Defense might not be enough to block the attack.
But Scythe Slash only relied on a weapon, and it should be no problem to block it with Magic Defense.
… No!
"No problem at all?"
If that was the case, why would Akabane Tenzen use the Scythe Cutter to attack him?
He should know his ability best, and he knew that it was impossible to penetrate his Magic Defense with a strike from the sickle.
"Could it be …?!"
Rozen turned his head abruptly and looked in Akabane Tenzen's direction.
In the next second, Rozen finally saw the worst-case scenario.
"Beep …"
Magical power burst out like an electric shock, flowing on Akabane Tenzen's body.
At this moment, Akabane Tenzen stretched out his hands, and a trace of seriousness appeared on his face that was covered with frost from the beginning.
Under such circumstances, visible changes appeared on Akabane Tenzen's body.
Clang …
Akabane Tenzen's eyes suddenly lit up and turned into a dazzling red.
"Bang …"
A burst of bright red blood spurted from Akabane Tenzen's back, and instantly vaporized, turning into pure magical power.
Akabane Tenzen let his back erupt with blood, consuming his body, and his magical power increased exponentially.
It looked as if a pair of red wings had spread out from its body.
That was the Akabane Clan's highest secret.
"Crimson Wing Formation …"
Akabane Tenzen carried red wings on his back, his eyes flashed red, and on his outstretched hands, his ten fingertips gathered amazing magical power, turning the magical power into ten threads.
It was slender, soft, and neat. It was tough and scorching, and it emitted a terrifying aura.
The magical power equivalent to hundreds of magus were concentrated on these ten threads and extended out. Then, five of them were connected to Scythe, and the other five were connected to Dragonfly.
"Bang!"
Terrifying power burst out from Scythe's body.
"Bang!"
The dragonflies also caused the Mana to surge like a raging wave.
The two puppets each received five times the amount of magic power, and their strength received an astonishing increase.
The outcome was decided in such a situation.
"Bang!"
The Magic Defense on Rozen's back was broken, and he was hit by Scythe.
"Boom!"
Ye Ye's kick that fell on Dragonfly's hand was also completely withstood, and then it turned into a flash of light in the magical ripple spread between Ye Ye's hands, and it bounced straight back to her body, swallowing her.
"Goo …!?"
"Ahhhhh!"
Rozen's muffled groan and Ye Ye's cry were mixed together. One's waist was cut in half, a lot of blood splashed, and the other was blasted to the ground, rolling all the way out.
Just because of the power of Crimson Wing Formation, Rozen and Ye Ye were both defeated.
When Rozen and Ye Ye fell to the ground one after another, the scene returned to silence.
Scythe and Dragonfly returned to Akabane Tenzen's side.
Fire also fell from mid-air and returned to Akabane Tenzen.
Akabane Tenzen quietly looked at Rozen, who was lying in a pool of blood.
"Master."
After a while, Fire came forward and spoke for the first time.
"Do you need me to come over?"
The implication was that he was ready to give Rozen the final blow.
Generally speaking, that was indeed the best approach.
But Akabane Tenzen shook his head.
"If you really do that, it will be dangerous."
Akabane Tenzen's words made Huotsuki and the rest of the girl-shaped puppets stunned, and they couldn't figure it out.
Dangerous?
Where did that come from?
Hasn't the enemy been successfully defeated?
The girls thought so in their hearts.
But …
"Did you forget what I just said?" Akabane Tenzen still looked at Rozen and said lightly, "My sworn brother has a secret."
In other words …
"He still has means that he hasn't used yet." Akabane Tenzen said extremely calmly, "It is because of this that I kept Jade Bug, Bee, and Spider Hime by my side. I didn't even want to send Dragonfly, but who would have thought that their power is more troublesome than I thought."
In order to guard against Rozen's hidden means, Akabane Tenzen prepared four automaton puppets as a precaution, and he sent Dragonfly as a last resort.
It showed how much importance Akabane Tenzen attached to Rozen's hidden means.
But it was mutual.
Rozen also hid the existence of Summon Technique because Akabane Tenzen still had many automaton puppets, and he was ready to use it when necessary.
Of course, if Ye Ye didn't come, Rozen would have already used Summon Technique.
However, it was obvious that Akabane Tenzen, who had six automatons, couldn't win against Akabane Tenzen, who had six automatons.
After all, all six of Akabane Tenzen's automaton puppets could exert the power equivalent to a superior familiar under his control.
Rozen could only rely on Yaya to fight the enemy, using Summon as his trump card, and use it at the critical moment.
Akabane Tenzen was aware of this, so he deliberately left a lot of automaton puppets to guard against Rozen.
In the end, Akabane Tenzen, who mastered Crimson Wing Formation, won the battle.
"This is the power of Crimson Wing's Blood. Without this power, you will lose to me, Narukami."
"You can try to chase after me."
"Let's see if you can catch up."
After leaving such words, Akabane Tenzen left with the six automaton puppets around him.
The flames were still burning.
