"Rozen?"
Seeing that Rozen had suddenly made a move against Heihe Lingquan, Edwise, who had been watching the battle silently, was completely stunned.
It was only natural.
Originally, Edwise thought that since Rozen had more or less seen the inside story, then he would just sit back and watch the turmoil unfold, not interfering in the whole process.
In fact, when the most dangerous and powerful Black Iron King Horse made a move, Rozen was still watching quietly. Edwise was sure that Rozen had no intention of intervening in this dispute, just like him.
Who would have thought that Rozen would choose to make a move at this time?
There was nothing he could do about it.
As Rozen had said, he had a score to settle with Heihe Lingquan.
Glancing at the stone giants bound by the silver-white chains, Rozen spoke to Heihe Lingquan calmly.
"You were the one who attacked me at the foot of the Odomo Mountain the day before yesterday, weren't you?"
Rozen's words rang out clearly.
Yes.
It was Heihe Lingquan who had attacked Rozen at the foot of the Odomo Mountain the day before yesterday.
Seeing Heihe Lingquan's fingers snap and the stone giants take shape and attack as if they had a life of their own, Rozen was sure that this person was the culprit who had sent the stone giants to attack him the day before yesterday.
However …
"Aiya, I don't understand what you are talking about."
Heihe Lingquan denied it with a grin.
Unfortunately …
"Too clumsy." Rozen curled his lips and said, "Do you think I didn't notice the lines extending from your fingers?"
Lines that were invisible to the naked eye extended from Heika Reizen's ten fingers, connecting to the bodies of the Rock Giants.
Those lines were probably Heihe Lingquan's Intrinsic Spiritual Equipment.
"Your ability is to control puppets through strings, or even form puppets and use them as your weapons to fight, right?"
Rozen said mockingly as he looked at Heika Reizumi.
"That technique is exactly the same as what the guy who attacked me used to control the Rock Giant's puppet."
Hearing this, Heihe Lingquan shrugged his shoulders, appearing as if he did not intend to admit it. Or perhaps, he found it amusing and continued to play along.
"Isn't it a little too hasty to judge me based on this?"
Heihe Lingquan's tone was filled with playfulness.
But this could also be regarded as a reason.
Although linear intrinsic spiritual equipment was extremely rare, it wasn't something that only Pinghe Lingquan possessed.
For example, Yi Hui, Dong Tang Dao Hua, and Black Iron King Ma, the three of them all had Nippon swords. They had different shapes, but the type was the same. In this world, it wasn't strange to have the same type of Spirit Equipment.
Moreover, being able to control puppets was not a rare ability.
Therefore, it wasn't enough to prove that Heihe Lingquan was the one who did it.
However …
"You think it's fun, right?"
Rozen narrowed his eyes and stopped smiling.
"Then I'll have some fun with you."
As he said this, Rozen snapped his fingers.
"Buzz!"
A trembling sound suddenly rang out.
"What …!?"
At this moment, Heihe Lingquan was finally shocked.
The trembling sound didn't come from anywhere else, but from his body.
To be more precise, it came from the black gas emitting from Heihe Lingquan's body.
A gust of black gas gushed out of Heihe Lingquan's body and instantly dyed him red.
"What … What is this …!?"
Heihe Lingquan waved his arms in a panic, trying to get rid of the black gas on his body as he screamed.
Unfortunately, the black gas was like a bug that clung to Heihe Lingquan's body, preventing him from getting rid of it.
That was only natural.
"This is my curse. How could you get rid of it with just a few waves?"
Rozen smirked.
"Curse … Curse?"
Heihe Lingquan was stunned.
But that was the truth.
"You think I can't do anything to you just because you're controlling the puppet from afar and I can't locate you?"
Rozen looked at Heihe Lingquan with a mocking gaze.
"Before your puppet was destroyed by me and the thread was broken, I had already followed the thread and cursed you using your magic power."
This was a skill that all skilled magicians and cursemancers should have.
Some magicians and cursemancers could trace the enemy's magic and curse power.
Some magicians and cursemancers could detect the location of their enemy.
Although Rozen could do all of them, he chose the most energy-efficient method, which was to follow his enemy's magic and follow the connection that Heihe Lingquan used to control the puppet, placing the curse on Heihe Lingquan's body.
On top of that, it was a curse that could exhaust the enemy's magic and strength, turning them into a cripple.
"So, here's the problem."
It was only until this moment that Rozen finally fixed his eyes on Heika Lingquan.
"I clearly put such a curse on you, so why are you safe and sound now?"
Rozen knew better than anyone that the curse had not taken effect. Otherwise, he wouldn't have summoned Heihe Lingquan with a snap of his fingers.
If the curse had already taken effect, then Heika Reizumi would have already entered a state of Mana Exhaustion, unable to recover, and could only watch helplessly as he became a cripple. After seven days, even his strength would be exhausted, and he wouldn't even be able to move.
But now, Heihe Lingquan was completely unscathed. She was even able to enjoy herself without being cursed.
The reason behind this …
"Now that I have a closer look, I understand."
As he said that, Rozen stared at Heihe Lingquan with a flash of fire in his eyes.
"Bang — —!"
Following the explosion of the fire, Heihe Lingquan's chest was blasted into pieces.
"Grrr …!"
Heihe Lingquan let out a pained cry as the explosion sent her flying.
But …
“.....！”
Edward, who was watching from the side, narrowed his eyes.
"Sure enough."
Choking on his own breath, Rozen murmured.
As expected, Rozen murmured.
Hiraga Lingquan, who was lying on the ground, had his chest blown away, but there was no blood and flesh splattering everywhere, nor was he killed on the spot. There was only a broken chest that looked like a machine that was emitting sparks.
In other words …
"Even you yourself are a puppet. My curse is attached to your body, so of course it won't work."
Rozen revealed the answer.
"You are not Heihe Lingquan."
The Heihe Lingquan of Literati Academy might not exist at all, or if she existed, she was secretly disposed of and replaced by a fake.
The so-called clown was just a puppet.
A puppet controlled by an unknown and mysterious swordsman to enter Literati Academy and attack Rozen and Vanquisher.
The puppet named Heihe Lingquan staggered to its feet.
"Hehe … hehe … hahahaha …!"
Heihe Lingquan laughed.
That laughter was extremely evil.
