"Speaking of which, the craftsmanship of these swords and spears is truly extravagant," Merka exclaimed as he looked at the Judgement and Trial carried by Yorkshire.

"...Mmm, does Merka not have one?" Yorkshire asked Merka with some confusion.

"We are currently in a special time, and the Agio family will give such a set of weapons to important figures in each family."

"Although some magicians may not need them, at least it's better than nothing."

Interrupting Merka, Turing replied.

"They were indeed sent, originally placed in the box brought by Sister Dunkirk."

"Hehe... But I used them up."

"It seems like they have a limited number of uses, once used a few times, they can't be used anymore."

Yorkshire, rather like stroking a small animal, freely hugged and clung to Turing, his actions extremely exaggerated, just short of licking her directly.

"You are really daring, Sister Turing!"

With a face full of happiness, Yorkshire caressed Turing's face, his expression resembling someone indulging in some sinful substance.

"But I also have never heard of a limited number of uses or anything like that."

Ouch... so painful... so painful...

Yorkshire reluctantly let go of Turing, reaching for the weapon by his waist.

"How can you tell the number of uses for this weapon..."

"Why not give it a try?"

Taking off the Judgement from his waist, Yorkshire intended to give it a simple swing to see the effect.

Stop her... Stop her...

【Did I just hear something in my mind?】

【Is this... the smell of wormwood?】

Turing's horrified expression could not be more obvious, a long-lost sense of crisis emerging in Turing's heart and slowly revealing its true face.

It was like a dragon hidden deep in the ocean, lurking in Turing's unsteady heart, swiftly soaring up as it was on the brink of collapse, attempting to drag Turing into an irreversible abyss.

"Wait..."

Turing subconsciously tried to stop Yorkshire, but with a brilliant flash on the sword in Yorkshire's hand, a dangerous slash had already ominously crossed.

After Yorkshire's slash, the fragrance of wormwood instantly weakened, the unfamiliar words constantly echoing in Turing's mind also gradually receding as if losing their authenticity.

"What... what happened?"

Although the strange echoes in her mind had stopped, Turing was even more surprised sensing the powerful magic fluctuations on the magic sword.

Seeing Turing suddenly put on an extremely serious expression, Yorkshire asked worriedly.

Merka also furrowed his brows, feeling the overwhelming magical fluctuations emanating from the sword in Yorkshire's hand.

And Merka distinctly felt that this magic fluctuation was very similar to the one emitted by the "Abdiel's pinky" given to him by the shadow.

"...This magic fluctuation is the same as Merka's... Could it be..."

"Are they made from the same half-angel body?"

Turing widened her eyes, not immediately grasping the implications of this realization, but she had an intuition that the answer to a question she had been pondering over was now just a wall away.

Why does Maria dare to challenge her mother once again? Twenty years ago, she led almost all the forces she could muster to launch a decapitation operation against Oedipus at the Ruins of Furnace Mountain. At that time, she was still young, and war heroes forbidden band member Joan and Michael were still alive. Not to mention the fact that she brought so many warriors with her and even mobilized Pandora to join the fight. Even her only daughter was used as a chip just to kill Oedipus. Even so, Oedipus didn't bring anyone with him, relying solely on herself and her angel Beezelbub, she defeated the well-prepared Maria. However, now Maria is not only old, but her combat power is not as strong as before. How does she dare to show a front to Oedipus as if she wants to compete with him? Yes, the answer to this question is definitely...

Boom!

A huge noise interrupted Turing's thoughts, the thunderous collision echoing through the skies like the last roar of a dying giant troll.

As the thunderous roar approached, the magical waves, similar to the judgement just now, shook the entire Montecristo family's castle.

A ghostly figure suddenly appeared as if a reflection on a silver mirror, sitting lightly on the fence beside the window, overlooking Turing and the others.

Shortly after, she removed the backdrop, revealing her true face.

"Tucoco, Merka, and the Third Princess, why are you still here?"

"The staff has already evacuated the hall."

"Terrorists have attacked."

"You should go to shelter too."

An ice-cold, expressionless woman extended one hand on the railing, her legs crossed together, black wings gently flapping in the air to maintain balance, standing like an eagle.

"Dunkirk's Rain Curtain!"

Yorkshire exclaimed in astonishment at the sudden appearance of the woman.

"Escape...? Are you referring to us?"

Hearing Dunkirk's words, Merka couldn't help but be stunned.

In theory, Turing, who was standing here, was almost the strongest warrior on Maria's side, so if even Turing had to run, what kind of enemy had appeared?

"Of course, I'm talking about you."

Dunkirk lowered her eyelids, her tone also becoming slightly heavier.

"Right now, the most important one is you, Tucoco."

"You are Oedipus's primary target."

"Although I haven't figured out whether this terrorist attack is related to Oedipus."

"But who can guarantee that they are not coming for you?"

Turing looked at Dunkirk's serious expression, becoming increasingly puzzled.

[Damn it...]

[Why does this kind of thing have to happen again?]

[Is someone going to suffer because of me again?]

"But, how is this possible... with so many ultimate wizards in the meeting hall, how could someone dare to act like this?" Turing asked unwillingly.

She glanced at Merka beside her, silently gritting her teeth.

"Who do you think everyone is a battle mage like you?"

"Most of them are not like you, they have fought their way to where they are, with plenty of battle experience."

"Acadia hasn't been in a fight for how many years."

"When it comes to combat ability, Kyopa only need to send just two or three people here, they could wipe out everyone in this room."
