Jenkins felt it, because he had fought against the scarlet mayfly in the state of God, so he was quite familiar with that thing. From the hole in the house, he felt the same power as the mayfly.
The hole hit by the blacksmith's sledgehammer was not an accident. In this small town with a relatively fixed route, the difference machine calculated which route Jenkins would choose.
A bloody ray of light spilled out, and the old woman's head protruded from the hole, but what was connected to the head was not the human neck, but the metal worm's body.
Looking at the bug, Jenkins' body was completely out of control. At this moment, the lineage of elves and humans was distorted by higher-dimensional rules, and turned in a completely incomprehensible direction.
The golden light immediately flashed on the body surface, and the coat on his body fixed the life form at the moment, helping Jenkins escape from the influence for a short time.
At this moment, the whole town was shaking. The blacksmith's violations revived the town, blood stained the originally dark sky, and strange and powerful auras were waking up in the town.
In comparison, that metal scarlet mayfly is not the most dangerous creature.
Jenkins already understood what he had to do at this moment, kill the metal scarlet mayfly who was also an outsider as soon as possible, and then leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, the changes brought about by the two outsiders will cause the town, which has been sleeping for an unknown number of years, to erupt again.
As the bell ringer and the nuns feared, this could have very dangerous consequences.
"but I… "
He couldn't find a way to defeat the bug. Not only was the metal mayfly much stronger than Jenkins, but even the influence of distorting the body and blood was only temporarily shielded by Ovia's coat.
"Is it up to fate now?"
Unwillingly, he called out the ability dots, and stared at the one in the center that symbolized the [unknown way forward]. But it immediately occurred to him that Alexia had given him a second chance, allowing him to use an ability twice in the strange world.
Subconsciously, he wants to check whether "Second Chance" is still in his backpack. Stretching his hand into the backpack, he touched the chocolate figurine Alexia had given him when he left the strange land for the first time.
While observing the gradually recovering metal worm, he looked at the ability light spot, but suddenly frowned, and moved his gaze to the [real phantom]. When holding the chocolate figurine, the [Real Illusion], which was originally gray and unavailable, turned on automatically.
"Chocolate and Shadows..."
Of course it doesn't mean that, it seems that the ability itself is reminding Jenkins that now is the time to use it again.
"But I didn't leave a phantom in any position, and even if I moved to another position, it couldn't help me defeat the scarlet mayfly."
Even though he thought so, powerful inspiration and intuition told him that only this ability was the right choice at this moment. When the spirit touched the light spot, the chocolate figurine in his hand immediately turned into a beam of light and flew into the center of Jenkins' eyebrows.
The shadow power of the Calamity Beast and the strange power added to the statue by the future Alexia instantly broke through the limitations of the delusion, connected with the soul power of Jenkins, and even made the [true] who is the savior of the eighteenth century The phantom] also produced subtle changes.
A forest appeared in the pupils of his eyes, and he saw that he had indeed left a shadow outside, a shadow that had never been used.
Then, under the giant tree in the evergreen forest, the white shadow hanging upside down suddenly lit up.
Alexia, Miss Audrey, and Miss Broniance, who was still staying in the evergreen forest, looked up at the glowing reflection under the tree together, and the soft white light spread outwards little by little until finally letting the The entire evergreen forest is lit up.
But the strange thing is that near the luminous center, the three ladies were still able to open their eyes and look at the core of the white light, and saw a phantom of a cat flash behind that figure, and then Alexia The unique combination of complex geometry and formulas when launching [Theory of Mathematics] also unfolded behind the upside-down figure.
"Look, he's back again."
Alexia said with a smile.
The light gradually shrank, and the shadow of the saint who had been hanging upside down for half a year finally disappeared under the tree.
Darkness descended on the clearing again, and with a splash, Jenkins fell from the tree and plunged headlong into the pool. This is the second time he has left the strange land, because of the characteristics of [True Illusion], this time he left his body and soul. But it seems that it is because this is a violation of the rules to leave the strange land, so after returning, those unusable abilities are still unusable, instead of counting from the beginning.
Alexia, who had been prepared for a long time, had already walked to the pool and pulled Jenkins up. He "contaminated" the elixir again, and when he came ashore, he wasted some and sprinkled it on the grass. Fortunately, the three ladies currently in the clearing didn't care about it.
"Oh Alexia, the chocolate figurine you gave me really works, it's amazing."
He wiped the water on his face with his right hand, then looked down at Alexia's hand, and thought of the girl's hand that had turned into a blood cocoon not long ago. Of course, no one knew that he was still thinking about messy things.
While drying his body, he briefly introduced the situation he was encountering, and then gently hugged the short lady.
"Is Finny back?"
He did not forget to ask.
"No."
Miss Audrey, who also came over, replied, because Alexia had said that Jenkins would appear again, so she was not too surprised by the appearance of Jenkins.
As for Jenkins using the reflection of the saint, Miss Audrey and Miss Broniance were not surprised at all. After all, he had directly summoned the Sage a few hours ago (real world time).
"So what time is it?"
Jenkins asked.
"Sunday at half past eleven."
"You've been waiting here all this time?"
He asked in surprise, the last time he left that tower was only in the morning.
"Yes, I knew you would show up again."
Alexia said, standing on tiptoe and hugging Jenkins again:
"I'm glad you're not hurt, everyone was waiting for you."
The trouble he faced this time was also not small. Although it was not the reappearance of the Calamity Beast itself, even if he could manage to defeat part of the power of the Scarlet Mayfly, it would take a lot of time, and the town was already rejecting him.
Although Jenkins was thinking about going back to the church to visit his cat, he knew that time was running out. Although he came out, he had to go back within three hours. When he left, he inexplicably understood the difference between the time flow rate of the ancient town's treacherous land and the real world. He was outside for three hours, and almost three seconds had passed in the treacherous land. Three seconds was enough time for the scarlet mayfly to completely crawl out of the dwelling and kill him. He has been many times.
