After making sure that Yade and the monsters were calm, Shinji finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned the box to Gray while complaining:
"I say, aren't you guys going too far? Are you still fighting like this even though the culprit has fallen?"
"He just fell down. He can still be useful if he wakes up. He won't die as long as I'm here." Orange snorted. She had been disdainful of the upstart Atram from beginning to end.
"Are you sure? If I hadn't stopped you just now, how many people do you think would have survived?"
Shinji rolled his eyes and pressed harder on Sven's forehead. The power from his soul was injected into the boy's brain through his fingers, dispelling the fear caused by excessive perception.
"It was an accident, and you and Danzo wouldn't just stand by and watch." Although he said that, Chengzi knew he was in the wrong, and his voice lowered involuntarily.
"We're not going to sit idly by, but we have to be nearby."
"What do you mean? You too?"
"Don't think of us the same way as you do. Even if I get carried away, Danzo won't."
"So what did you do?"
As he said this, Danzo had already slowly descended from the sky, handed the bag back to Orange's hand, and replied.
"Master Levi took me to find someone."
Orange looked puzzled: "Looking for someone? Who?"
"You'll know soon. Danzo, please go and bring the person over."
"Yes, Master Levi."
Dan Zang nodded, and was pulled back by Chengzi again.
"Wait, who will protect me if she leaves? If anyone goes, it should be someone from your side."
Shinji scratched his hair hard, looking helpless: "Go on."
"Of course." Orange nodded seriously, "I don't have the habit of giving up halfway."
Shinji was completely convinced: "Okay, okay, Sifen, please go to that direction to pick someone up."
"Here..."
Sifen seemed a little hesitant. Although he had been abused by Shinji many times, he was still a champion after all, and he was a little worried about an unpredictable ninja puppet.
"Leave this to me. I don't expect to defeat the champion, but it's okay to buy some time."
Hearing this answer, Sifen no longer hesitated. He leaped a few times between the trees and disappeared into the jungle.
Shinji bowed to Orange and said respectfully, "Please show mercy, Miss Orange."
Keep pretending.
Orange pouted, looked at Shinji with a playful look, and said as if she were a senior to a junior:
"You seem very confident, Levi? You've lost so much of your magic power."
The Holy Spear will devour magic power indiscriminately, and the result of forcibly interrupting it will be that most of the magic power in your body will be devoured.
Aren't you pretending to be happy
Shinji responded with the same look and answered without being humble or arrogant.
"You also spent a lot of magic on my companions."
"Then give it a try."
Orange smiled slightly, and a rune quietly appeared under his feet - Thursaz (Thor's Hammer).
Shinji's posture remained unchanged, his palm turned up, and the water rune Laguz was engraved on his palm at some point.
Both of them utilized Galiasta's weather magic, but they canceled each other out.
A man and a woman facing each other smiled.
"You use your Rune very well, Levi."
"No, no, I am far behind you, Miss Orange. I would appreciate your guidance."
The boy's fingers moved quickly, quickly writing a line of runes in the air, a speed that was enough to make every modern rune ashamed.
The female magician was not as quick as the boy, but she never won by speed, she relied on overwhelming precision. The same magic formula was evolved by her skillful hands, and the utilization and conversion rate of magic power was greatly improved, and the effect became more significant.
In layman's terms, Orange's low-position magic can play an effect comparable to Shinji's mid-position magic, which is enough to equalize Shinji's speed advantage. And because of the advantage of low-position magic's low mana consumption, Orange has the upper hand in terms of conversion.
Under normal circumstances, the weaker side should start to change tactics and change the situation at this time. Shinji also has this ability. Whether it is rescuing Sifen or preventing the loss of control just now, it shows that he has amazing physical ability, which happens to be Orange's weakness.
However, Shinji did not take advantage of his speed, but concentrated on carving runes and exchanging magic with Orange. The scene looked very harmonious.
Some onlookers thought that Shinji was deliberately not using his speed advantage to contain Orange's puppets and familiars in order to maintain balance and delay time. Others thought that Orange knew that reinforcements were coming and that nothing could be done, so he pretended to be just going through the motions.
In fact, they all guessed wrong. The reason why Orange and Shinji were so harmonious was because they both remembered the days when they lived together.
In 1995, when he was still a child, he brought two girls into her workshop and into her life.
The four of them traveled together, became familiar with the mysterious world of Japan together, encountered all kinds of interesting things together, and practiced together.
Among the most common projects, in addition to making rune stones, is using rune magic for attack and defense.
From then on, Shinji and Orange's sparring was like this, one was using speed to overwhelm the other, the other was using quality to win. From single runes to rune charts, from basic techniques to low-level magic, and then to mid-level magic.
The high-level magic composed entirely of original runes was not mastered by anyone before Orange left, so it was not involved for the time being. However, even if it was mastered, it would probably not change, at least not during the battle between the two of them, because it was a memory created by the two of them together.
Fingers traced, flames roared.
Spear of fire, hail of fire.
The toes move and the snow and ice fly.
Icicle Blade, Ice Spirit.
The unconscious Atram and Flat were awakened by the alternation of cold and heat.
Thunder roared and lightning flashed, and the earth broke apart.
Angry thunder and rocks exploding.
The rainbow is across the sky and the stars are shining.
Rainbow missiles, cross air strikes.
Lanis and Bailon were shocked by the ever-changing magic.
Light and fire combine, shadows take shape.
Holy Flame Javelin, Dark Night Sword.
This ingenious operation even made Inola and Weber cheer for it, as they were the ones that Sfen wanted to pick up. Their arrival also put an end to this chaotic battle in which one side took the stage and the other took the stage.
"Ah, now that they have all come together, I have no choice but to admit defeat."
Orange, whose magic power was almost exhausted, sighed with regret. Others thought she was taking Inola's existence into consideration, but only Shinji knew that if she was determined to release the monster in the bag and let Danzo go on a killing spree, she might be able to achieve her goal.
What she really cares about is her client, the "Silver Princess" Estella who came with Inole.
Estiella asked her to participate in the battle in order to create chaos and facilitate escape. Her standing here meant that the escape had failed, and there was no need for Orange to continue wasting time and magic.
