Instant K.O.!
Neither the audience nor the host had anticipated such an outcome!
No... Actually, they had anticipated it.
Only, in their imaginations, the one being instantly defeated should have been Beedrill.
A Bug-type Pokémon like Beedrill—shouldn't it have been burned to charcoal by those blazing flames?
But now, the situation was reversed—Typhlosion had been instantly defeated instead.
Gulp!

Even by the end, Ophis still couldn’t quite understand why that goddess had sought her out.
Had she simply noticed Ophis in passing and stopped by?
Still, thanks to that meeting, she’d gained a great deal of new intel.
The enemy’s objective—and this “Mage King.”
[Mage King, huh… Among the few historical kings famed for magecraft, only one could pull off something like this. It has to be Solomon.]

“The reason we—the Three-Goddess Alliance—formed and attacked Uruk is simple enough. There’s not much to explain: to rule the land that comes after.”
True to her word, Ereshkigal spoke without hesitation, showing no hint of remorse.
“Of course, there are small differences between us. My goal is dominion over humanity itself. The goddess in the north seeks control of the land. As for the one in the south—her origins are too different. I honestly can’t figure out what she’s after.”

Her lips were pried open, her tongue entwined, their breath and saliva mingling.
Before Ophis could even process the bizarre intimacy of it, a surge of divine energy flooded into her through their joined mouths—and through the blade still lodged in her chest.
She didn’t need to think long to recognize it.
This was the divine authority called Death.
Ereshkigal, knowing that pure death had little effect on Ophis, had chosen a subtler, more insidious method—guiding her toward death.

The Priestess Court—once a sacred place where every stone, every flower, every blade of grass had been arranged with divine precision—was gone.
In its place lay only ruins.
“You even went out of your way not to hit the dead priestesses? I really don’t get what the point of that is.”
Ereshkigal rose from her half-crouched stance, brushing dust from her mantle, lips curling into a sharp, unamused smile.

“After seeing this sight, how does it make you feel?”
“…You… are Ishtar?”
That loud, boisterous voice—one that had shouted in her ears every few days—was far too familiar. Ophis recognized it almost instantly.
Yet… something was off.
The presence behind her felt steadier, calmer—if only slightly.
Just a little.
But the most striking difference was the aura itself: thick with death and shadow, utterly unlike Ishtar’s.
Turning, Ophis found herself face to face with a girl who was ...

“What did you just say?”
After hearing Hugh's words, Texas’s pupils shrank slightly, and the question slipped from her lips almost subconsciously.
She knew the identity of the man in front of her. “Harbinger of Destruction”—that’s what they called him here in Siracusa these days. Because he'd always appear beforehand, visiting the organizations or families the Wolf Hunter intended to target, announcing in advance the destruction soon to follow—that was, the Wolf Hunter’s visitation.

Facing Hugh, Giovanna couldn’t help but ask. Hugh glanced at her briefly and immediately gave a confident reply:
“No need to worry for now. The Wolf Hunter has been driven back; at least for the next few days, there shouldn’t be any further issues.”
Hearing Hugh's words, Giovanna nodded slightly, not questioning further. She didn't notice that her movements had become somewhat slower—her perception was only that Hugh and Da'at seemed to be moving slightly faster than befo...

“Da'at… Close your eyes first.”
“Eh? Oh…”
Hearing Kali’s words, Da'at froze for a moment, only to have Hugh swiftly cover her eyes from beside her. Kali merely glanced back once, then lifted her Mimicry E.G.O, staring directly at the group before her.
The moment the Mimicry E.G.O was raised, its eyeballs spun wildly, fixing onto those gang members. In an instant, they seemed to freeze in terror—even some unconsciously lowered their knives…

Soul Society remained as calm as ever.
Days within Seireitei proceeded unchanged, aside from the recent large-scale mobilization of the Keigun and the searches conducted by the Eighth and Thirteenth Divisions throughout Rukongai, which left many confused.
However, since the First Division made no formal announcements, nobody pressed the issue, treating it as merely some confidential affair.

I wonder how Unohana-taichō’s doing now…
But she should be fine—if Unohana Retsu had actually died, he certainly wouldn’t be receiving mere imprisonment.

At the instant the blood-red blade came down, Nobu’s white blade suddenly slid in like a fish swimming against the current, meeting hers silently without the clang of steel. Unohana Retsu’s pupils shrank abruptly—she clearly saw that white short-sword slipping impossibly through the gap near the sword guard. Sparks burst forth at the blades’ contact, drawing twisted trails in the bloody mist.
Ka!
Unohana twisted her wrist elegantly, breaking their locked blades. The instant she withdrew, her sweeping strike was p...

First Division Barracks.
Second Division Captain Soi Fon was listening to her subordinate's report alongside Head-Captain Yamamoto.
“We are currently conducting a thorough search of Seireitei, but there’s no sign of the targets yet.”
It was impossible for such a mobilization of the Keigun (Punishment Force) to escape Soi Fon’s notice; in fact, as its commander-in-chief, her cooperation in leading the search was indispensable.
