Chapter 521: The Time of the Setting Sun Has Arrived! (Please Subscribe!)

Listening to the joyful cries of the fairy clone as it fixated on Ais, Izay remained unperturbed.

As for these fairy clones, Loki Familia now knew them inside and out.

The only mystery was the location of its true form—somewhere deep within the Dungeon.

Oh, and one more thing.

Why the corrupted fairy was so obsessed with someone named Aelia remained a puzzle.

But that didn’t matter.

When Izay became strong enough, all the secrets of this world would be unveiled to him.

The ultimate ability, the Principle of Astrology, primarily functioned as a sort of alternate omniscience.

All celestial bodies, especially planets and constellations, inherently predicted changes in the mortal realm through causal or non-coincidental means.

Once Izay comprehended the true Principle of Astrology, he’d know everything about the world.

It would simply depend on whether he wanted to or not.

But that’s a future concern. For now, focus on the present—let’s continue strategizing the extermination of the fairy clone.

After Izay threw his weapon, quietly, a certain magic he commanded began preparation.

To be precise, it should be called a “miracle.”

Behind Izay, a small ring was outlined by diminished star symbols, from its center unfolded a pair of tiny “wings,” pure white and immaculate.

This was not an ability Izay could instantly unleash at his current level.

Its immense power demanded a period of buildup.

During this time, Izay wasn’t slacking off either. In a flash, he appeared beside the fairy clone, reclaiming his weapon.

In the blink of an eye, a new wound blossomed on the bull-like creature’s skin, which rivaled the hardest metals, and fresh blood sprayed forth.

Beside him, Tione couldn’t help but marvel. She glanced at her own first-tier armed equipment, perfectly enchanted, yet she couldn’t cause such effortless damage like Izay!

Was it because the knife was too small?

So she glanced at Tiona, watching her foolish younger sister also leave a mark on the fairy clone’s tough hide, finally losing composure.

“I’m going back to switch my knife! Change the knife!!!”

Fuming, Tione ignored the recoil force in her arm and started wildly swinging her blade.

“BOOM!!!”

A sound akin to a boulder crashing onto the ground echoed as the bull took a step forward.

Gress rescued the battered Bert from under the bull’s hoof just in the nick of time, still finding the energy to tease him.

“Youngsters can’t last, huh? You’re already done after such a short time.”

“Huh? Clearly you old man took your sweet time getting here! Why don’t you try facing that thing yourself?”

The werewolf seemed to have found his knack for sarcasm—or maybe he was just too frustrated from being constantly suppressed. His temper flared now.

“If you say so, I’ll do it! Do you think I’m scared of it!?”

For a moment, Bert had no response.

As a frontline warrior maxed out in strength and endurance, Gress could take far more punishment than him.

Like the bull’s hoof stomp earlier—if Bert got hit, he’d likely lose combat capability.

If Gress got stomped, he’d suffer serious injuries at most but could still jump around and fight afterward.

“Why aren’t you talking back, kid? Did you go mute?”

“Shut up! Let me down! I can still fight!! Izay, enhance me, watch me kick it to death!!!”

Bert cursed as he prepared to re-enter the battlefield.

Surprisingly, ever since Izay’s Additional Magic was applied, Bert no longer liked relying on Ais’ wind.

After all, compared to the Fairy Wind, the ferocious Starflame was much more violent.

Hearing Bert’s voice, while Izay used ‘Starfall’ to suppress the enemy, he gave him a boost as well.

Carrying wild azure flames, the werewolf rejoined the battle!

“[The Spear of Thunder roars forward, by the fatal order of the agent, I am the spirit of thunder, the embodiment of thunder, the queen of thunder]!!”

Under the combined attacks of the first-tier adventurers, the giant bull slowed down. Its humanoid upper body withdrew its smile and began chanting spells.

With ultra-short incantations and incomprehensible speed, the magical artillery was instantly completed.

“[Thunder Light]!”

The monster unfolded a massive magic circle in mid-air, aiming at Izay, who dealt the most damage to it, and initiated a sniper attack.

“[As Solid as a Fortress]!!”

Facing the enormous purple cannonball, Izay didn’t panic. He extended his free arm, and a bright yellow, sturdy shield instantly appeared before him. The fierce thunder elemental abilities striking it merely caused ripples.

“[—Grow larger, Treasure Hammer]!”

“[—Dance, Ninefold]!!”

In a corner of the labyrinth hall, the golden song reappeared.

Six luminous fox tails swayed gracefully, representing the limit of what Haruhi could currently achieve.

Squeezing every ounce of magic power from the young fox girl, it transformed into a light orb flowing into the six first-tier adventurers on the battlefield.

The glow of “Level Ascension” radiated six times in succession.

The situation on the battlefield changed instantly!

What was once a suppressed fairy clone, barely able to counterattack, now faced six Lv.7 attackers and lost all opportunities for retaliation, forced to retreat and solely defend itself.

Weapons easily pierced through the iron-hard defenses, continuously adding wounds to the bull-like creature.

“It seems I overestimated it…”

Izay muttered softly.

This fairy clone was clearly not like the one on the fifty-ninth floor, which had just fully formed. It was stronger.

Thus, without much thought, Izay activated the “miracle” to end the battle faster.

But now, it seemed unnecessary. Even without using the “miracle,” the battle would end quickly once Haruhi’s magic came into play.

“But if it’s prepared, let it be… Since I obtained this ‘miracle’ automatically, I haven’t used it once.”

Surrounded by particles of ascension, the “wings” behind Izay suddenly spread wide, resembling an unfurling.

But those were not simple “wings.” They were composed of countless tiny magic circles.

At the ends of these countless magic circles connected to the depths of the void, as Izay slowly raised his arm, the “wings” stretched backward, eventually curving into the shape of a crescent moon.

“[The time of the setting sun has arrived]!”

An arrow made of light materialized, resting on the crescent, followed by the appearance of the string.

The arrow, being pulled, gradually emitted black radiance, as Izay poured vast magical power into it.

The pitch-black light wrapping around the arrow responded to Izay’s will, becoming denser.

“[This is the calamity of Scorpio]!!”

At this moment, Izay resembled a commander issuing orders on the battlefield.

When his words fell, the command sounded.

And with that, the arrow obeyed and shot out.

However, what shot out wasn’t just an arrow…but a torrent of light!

The atmosphere visibly distorted and churned, stirring up a gale.

The shockwave emanating from the bow and arrow shook the ground, distorting the air. Ais and the others fighting noticed this intrusion and immediately moved aside.

Ironically, the fairy clone, which had been the most erratic earlier, now missing all four limbs, couldn’t resist at all.

In an instant, a thunderous crash, like the collapse of a mountain, violently shook the air and earth. A streak of lightning pierced through the labyrinth, continuing its downward trajectory into the artificial dungeon below.

Flashes of light scattered everywhere, and countless cracks appeared where the light arrow landed. At an alarming speed, they lifted the surface, crawling and covering more than half the hall before stopping.

Even so, it was clear this labyrinth hall was now useless.

Everyone could feel that this place was now as fragile as a cracked porcelain item.

A single impact, and it would completely collapse!

For a moment, everyone in Loki Familia held their breath, fearing another free-fall experience for their comrades.
