Cyclone's work went smoothly.

All the props were prepared properly, and now it was Marcina's turn to perform.

A huge magic circle surrounded by Kakarl quietly activated without warning.

On the other side, King Kakarl, with the help of the Sacred Relic he acquired earlier, also set up a magic circle in his own headquarters.

Unlike Marcina's, this magic circle released a strong black light as soon as it was activated.

This was a summoning technique evolved from the strongest manipulation art recorded in the forbidden grimoire using ancient secret techniques, with the goal of forcibly pulling the Great Dragon to his side.

To achieve this goal, King Kakarl gathered all his subordinates.

Not only to maximize the power of this dark magic, but more importantly, out of fear of the Great Dragon.

Facing the powerful and unknown dragon clan, King Kakarl did not dare to slack off.

At the same time, in order to counter the disturbance from the Source of Darkness, each member was blinded and only provided their own magical power without knowing what King Kakarl was up to.

As the caster, King Kakarl would be the first target of the Source of Darkness.

But it didn't matter, as King Kakarl had long been manipulated by the darkness of the Source of Darkness, both body and soul.

This was also one of the reasons why Cyclone's "words" were so effective, as the dark heart had long stopped trusting others, and Cyclone's words served as a catalyst.

Sophiel hid in the dark corner, the trade of the Sacred Relic had been completed. She was waiting for King Kakarl to summon the Great Dragon or for any unforeseen event to take place, so she could forcefully snatch the forbidden grimoire.

"Can't find it?"

At this moment, the maid Miss asked Onigashima, who had run back panting.

Onigashima shook her head and waved her hand.

"Don't bother looking."

Sophiel simply said, not planning to take her eyes off the target she was monitoring.

"But, of all times to disappear, why now? Even that stinky man, he has been wandering around the city recently, and…"

Although the maid pointed out accurately, it didn't shake Sophiel.

"Don't think about it. Those two must be up to something. They will definitely disrupt this summoning."

Sophiel said calmly.

"Then what does that mean…?"

At this moment, Sophiel finally glanced at the nervous maid.

"Our goal is not the Great Dragon, but the possession of the soul. And the current situation favors us more. Instead of trusting King Kakarl, who has been tainted by the Source of Darkness, I trust my own eyes."

The maid had nothing to respond to.

Indeed, King Kakarl had been misled by the Source of Darkness, and he had previously burned a page of the forbidden grimoire in front of everyone, showing his lack of trust.

"Wa-wait a minute?!"

Suddenly, the maid remembered something.

"That page was burned, right? Even Marcina said it couldn't be recovered. Now we are trying to snatch the forbidden grimoire…"

Apparently, the maid asked a foolish question, causing Sophiel to ignore her again and focus her gaze on the center of the magic circle.

"Everything in this world has its own memory, not only living beings but even lifeless objects."

Sophiel said coldly.

"Even if a page is lost, as long as there are other pages, it can be restored through the remaining items, even King Kakarl's head."

"Does big sister know such powerful magic?"

Onigashima asked curiously.

"I don't, but Marcina does."

"In the end, it's still about putting everything on the person who is not here, right?"

The maid's skepticism was justified, but Sophiel remained indifferent.

"Rest assured, in terms of memory alone, Marcina will not joke around."

Sophiel's sentence carried not only reluctant trust but also a hint of sadness.

"And, this is a deal between me and her. Otherwise… I would have killed that man long ago."

The summoning of the Great Dragon was about to begin.

Under the shining of the magical light, Sophiel seemed to recall a childhood memory.

A gentle smile flashed in her mind, a smile that Sophiel would never forget.

"Don't worry, just to be safe, take everything related to the forbidden grimoire with you~"

In the end, Sophiel smiled wickedly and shifted her gaze.

At that moment, the maid and Onigashima realized.

Sophiel was not looking at the center of the magic circle, nor the forbidden grimoire.

She was looking at the caster, King Kakarl, who had just turned around.
