Capítulo 1593: -1574- On the stage of the world
"Buzz—!"
In the sky above the arena, the force field representing the Wizard Field expanded once more, covering the entire arena.
"Boom—!"
Almost at the same time, the flames around Yamier exploded, transforming into a rolling blaze, raising the temperature throughout the arena.
The heatwave, like a storm of scorching air, blew towards Rozen and the others.
"Ugh...!"
Kanata, Chloe, Yuri, and Mina immediately deployed magical barriers in front of themselves, blocking the heatwave.
Rozen, however, did not take any defensive measures, simply unfolding the Kongouriki technique and letting himself stand within the heatwave, while his gaze remained fixed on Yamier.
Everyone, including Zeth, believed that Rozen, after using the Fire Realm Incantation on the Ninth Artificial Floating Island, could, like Yamier, convert magic power directly into flames and heat. But Rozen knew better about his own situation and also understood Yamier's peculiarity.
Rozen could see at a glance what made Yamier special.
"Is it the same ability as Karna?"
Yes.
Yamier possessed the same ability as Karna.
That ability was one of Karna's unique skills—Mana Burst (Flame).
Through this skill, Karna, the incarnation of the sun, could transform his magic power into raging flames. These flames could be used either for offense and defense, applied to weapons for combat, or even for propulsion, enabling him to fly at supersonic speeds in the air, making it an extraordinarily powerful skill.
Though Mana Burst wasn't particularly rare—many Blazers knew how to use this technique—Yamier's case was special. She could convert her magic power into flames and heat, possessing the same Mana Burst (Flame) ability as Karna.
With this ability, even without using jutsuryoku or collapse force, Yamier's strength was undeniable.
However...
"I'm no longer the Master who could only be protected by Karna."
Rozen suddenly smiled.
This smile seemed to provoke Yamier, causing her to slash down her crimson sword without hesitation.
"Rumble...!"
The intense flames immediately transformed into a tidal wave of fire, surging forward.
The scene resembled multiple explosions happening at once, advancing with a terrifying momentum.
This attack, if not for the Wizard Field, would likely have blown away the entire arena.
With such a powerful strike, regardless of Rozen, Chloe and the others surely wouldn't dare to take it head-on.
"Scatter!"
Immediately, Chloe, as the vice-captain, gave the command, and everyone dashed off in different directions, leaving the spot in an instant.
Only Rozen remained, gazing at the oncoming wave of heat. He reached out and, using the Magic Defense, raised an invisible barrier before him.
"Thud—!"
The raging flames struck the transparent barrier like waves crashing against a cliff, and with a booming sound, they were stopped by the barrier.
The flames swept past the barrier's sides, completely unable to reach Rozen.
However, it was clear that Yamier hadn't unleashed the flames to attack.
"Now!"
Yamier coldly gave the command.
"Gregor! Francis! Parson! Gerrit!"
Yamier called out the names of her subordinates one by one.
""""Understood!""""
Behind her, several humanoid Armored Beetles, representing Team Vebel, stepped forward.
"Show these lowly humans the power of our humanoid Armored Beetles!"
Yamier ordered.
""""Yes!""""
The four humanoid Armored Beetles responded loudly.
The next moment...
"Boom!"
With the sound of an atmospheric explosion, a black tide surged from the bodies of the humanoid Armored Beetles of Vebel.
At this moment, it wasn't just magic power—they were all using jutsuryoku, merging magic power and jutsuryoku to form a higher level of power—Collapse Force.
Winds howled around them.
The space around them groaned.
The black tide of power surged into the sky like a volcanic eruption.
Even Yamier activated her collapse force, causing her presence and oppressive aura to grow exponentially.
Seeing Yamier and the others like this, Rozen's eyes flashed.
"Finally!"
"So they've finally revealed it!"
Finally, Kanata, Chloe, Yuri, and Mina all felt a jolt in their hearts, and their expressions became serious.
Meanwhile, in the VIP viewing seats, Zeth slowly smiled, while Annerose face darkened. Cris, Emilie, and River all held their breaths.
Because they knew, the true calamity had finally arrived.
"What... what is that?"
"Mana...?"
"That's not mana, is it?"
"What's with this ominous feeling?"
In the spectator stands, the faces of many who were watching Yamier and the others unleash Collapse Force began to change, becoming both noisy and anxious.
The same scene was unfolding across the floating cities worldwide.
Under the gaze of people all over the world, Collapse Force, once thought to be just a hypothesis, finally stood in the light.
And the power of humanoid Armored Beetles was being showcased on the global stage for the first time.
"Destroy them!"
Without hesitation, Yamier gave the order.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The four humanoid Armored Beetles immediately stomped the air, shooting out like flashes of light toward Kanata, Chloe, Yuri, and Mina.
"...!"
The four immediately reacted, scattering again without hesitation.
But the four humanoid Armored Beetles, using the powerful boost from Collapse Force, displayed tremendous speed, instantly catching up to their targets.
"Clang—!"
Gregor swung his magic sword heavily at Kanata, who hurriedly raised his magic cannon sword to block, unleashing tremendous power.
"So heavy...!"
Kanata used his magic cannon sword to parry the incoming magic sword, but the immense strength instantly overwhelmed him, and within a second, he was sent crashing toward the ground.
The others fared similarly.
Chloe was barraged by the boy wielding a magic lance. Even when she unleashed cannon blasts, they were crushed by his magic bullets, and she was sent flying by the explosion.
Yuri and Mina were simultaneously attacked by a boy and a girl, and after just a few exchanges, they were forced back, unable to gain the upper hand.
The four S-class sky wizards of Special Task Force S128 were all overwhelmed in an instant.
As for Rozen...
"Your opponent is me."
Yamier stepped before Rozen, pointing her sword at him, her voice filled with battle fervor as she eagerly challenged him.
"I won't let you interfere."
It was as if she could already see Rozen's flustered expression.
In her eyes, the other four were merely small fry, easily dealt with. As long as she kept Rozen busy, there was nothing to worry about.
However...
"Interfere?"
Rozen not only didn't seem flustered, but rather, like a hunter about to trap his prey, he showed a mischievous expression.
He couldn't help it.
"I should be the one saying that."
As he spoke, a blood mist rose from Rozen's body.
Chains of silver-white shot out from him, filling the surroundings.
