"boom-!"
When the roar turned into sound waves and expanded like a shock wave, the lightsaber in Valkyrie's hand split the seal of the prison barrier, making the entire prison barrier look like a reflection in the water. Then it echoed in waves of ripples, gradually changing back to its original shape as if it was going to return to its original shape.
However, with this change, the prison barrier that was originally swaying unstablely like a mirage became more and more solid, and even the pontoon bridge connected to the island turned into a solid entity.
At this point, the seal of the prison barrier was broken, and he completely returned to the ordinary space.
The oscillation of space is gone.
What remains is a solid reality.
"not good!"
Seeing this, Gu Cheng couldn't help but exclaimed, while Sister Meiya looked happy.
As for Senduki Yuma, she didn't show any joy at all.
"Even though the seal of the prison boundary was broken, the prisoners still didn't show up."
Senduki Yuma just confirmed this.
"Sure enough, we have to get rid of the source."
Senduki Yuma turned his gaze, first glanced at the ancient city, and then looked in the direction of Luo Zhen.
"If you want to know the truth, then come with me, Nangong Yaori."
With that said, Senduki Yuma took No. 6 and Agurola, blended into the space and disappeared.
Thanks to this, the Valkyrie in mid-air also disappeared with swaying rainbow light, as if she had retreated after her success.
"Wait! Yuma!"
Only then did Kojou react and shouted in the direction where Senduki Yuma disappeared.
What he got in exchange was a word from Senduki Yuma.
"This is not the place you should come to, Gucheng. Go back. I don't want to hurt you."
Leaving such a sentence behind, Xiandumu Yuma completely disappeared.
No. 6 followed him away without saying a word, grabbed the struggling Agulola, and also disappeared.
"hateful!"
Gucheng immediately punched the pontoon hard, causing the skin of his fist to split and blood to leak out.
On the side, Luo Zhen looked towards the direction of the prison boundary, looking at the church located on the top of the mountain.
Recalling Xiandumu Yuma's words and what happened that month, Luo Zhen already had some guesses in his mind.
"Sister Yue..."
Luo Zhen murmured in a low voice and took a deep breath.
"The seal of the prison boundary has been broken, but the prisoners have not escaped yet. Presumably, there should be a mechanism to prevent the prisoners from escaping, right?"
Luo Zhen looked at the ancient city and spoke like this.
"Now, the prison barrier has completely appeared and the space has completely stabilized. I can use space transfer to enter in one breath. Do you want to come with me?"
There is naturally only one answer to this question.
"Ah, take me with you."
Gu Cheng answered without hesitation.
"good."
Luo Zhen stretched out his hand and put it on Gu Cheng's shoulder.
The next second, the two of them disappeared together, causing silence to return to the world.
Only the Meiya sisters were left, gnashing their teeth as if they had completely lost their usefulness and been abandoned.
... ... ... ...
Prison wards, sanctuaries.
There is no light here, the whole body is pitch black, like a real prison, the interior of the church is both cold and dark.
The church is hollow, without any furniture or furnishings. All it has is an empty hall and a chair in the center of the hall.
On the luxurious armchair covered with velvet, a girl was sitting, leaning on the armrest, her eyes closed as if she was in a deep sleep.
The girl is both beautiful and young, with a face like a doll and a body like a witch. Sleeping motionless like this, she is just like a princess, so beautiful that it makes people breathless.
And in this church, which no one usually visits, at this moment, guests are finally welcomed.
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
Amid the tremors of space, two groups of people arrived here at the same time.
Then, both parties saw the girl sitting on the luxurious armchair.
"Then... that's...!?"
Gu Cheng, who was brought in by Luo Zhen, was astonished as if he couldn't believe his eyes.
"how come... "
Agulola, who was caught by No. 6, completely forgot about the struggle and looked at the sleeping girl, completely stunned.
"Is this the key to the prison barrier?"
No. 6 watched this scene quietly.
"It is indeed here."
Senduki Yuma exhaled, with an unreal smile on his face.
As for Luo Zhen...
“………”
Looking at the girl who was as beautiful as a doll, Luo Zhen remained silent, only his eyes were fixed on her.
The heart is in chaos.
Complete chaos.
In this situation...
"In order to ensure that the most vicious magic criminals in the world can be imprisoned, the artificial island management commune built a prison barrier, but even they can't confirm the location of the prison barrier. Is it just because it is hidden in a different space? Can’t find it?”
Senduki Yuma explained slowly.
"Furthermore, who sent the prisoners in and how did the prison barrier, which even the management commune of the artificial island doesn't know the location of, send in?"
All the answers are revealed here.
In fact, the truth is surprisingly simple.
"In order to build a prison with absolute security, the Artificial Island Management Corporation entrusted all the management rights of the prison to one person."
"Just like I was created to save my mother, the artificial island management commune gave birth to a witch in order to build a prison barrier."
"This witch is the guardian, gatekeeper, door and key of the prison enchantment."
"The so-called prison barrier is actually the name of the magic used to seal evil spirits and guide criminals, and this witch is the only one who can use this magic."
Senduki Yuma explained like this.
Gucheng may not understand, but Luo Zhen's words did not doubt this at all.
Because Luo Zhen also knows magic like prison enchantment.
——"Inherent enchantment".
A great magic that can materialize the user's mental world and is infinitely close to magic.
The prison barrier is a great magic similar to the inherent barrier.
However, it does not materialize the user's mental world, but turns the user's dreams into reality through the user's sleep, becoming a prison.
The prison barrier is exactly a dream that this witch had.
All prisoners are imprisoned in their dreams and there is absolutely no way to escape.
As for the temple here, this island, it is just a shell used to house the prison barrier.
It takes in the girl who has been maintaining the prison barrier in her dreams, and becomes the girl's sleeping place, and takes her with her to hide in a different space, so that no one can find her shell.
"This church is the castle where she lives. She has been sleeping here all the time. She has never been outside once since ten years ago.
Senduki Yuma's voice reached everyone's ears very clearly.
"The she you know outside is just a clone created by her original self using magic. She is just dreaming all the time, experiencing the experience of the clone outside in the way of dreaming."
Therefore, Senduki Yuma would say that there is no point in dealing with her outside.
"Now, we finally meet the real person."
Senduki Yuma bowed respectfully to the sleeping girl sitting in the armchair.
"It's an honor to meet you, manager of the prison barrier."
"."
"Nangong Nayue."
Senduki Yuma called out the girl's name.
Luo Zhen looked at his sister sleeping peacefully and finally closed his eyes.
