"Hum..."
As Irori and Komurasaki turned away from Rozen, placing his palms on their backs—one on the left, one on the right—magic power vibrated and flowed into the two girls with a tremor.
"Ah..."
"Mm..."
Feeling the magic flowing into their bodies, Irori and Komurasaki involuntarily let out sounds, their voices filled with trance.
The amount of magic entering their bodies was not much, just a very rare thread.
However, under Rozen's incredibly skillful manipulation, this trace of magic felt like an incredibly comfortable warm stream. Irori and Komurasaki couldn't help but make sounds.
"This... what is this?"
Irori's face blushed slightly, showing surprise.
"So... comfortable! I've never felt anything like this before!"
Komurasaki, on the other hand, comfortably closed her eyes.
"Ugh...."
Watching her two sisters enjoy something she usually had exclusively, Yaya became jealous and even bit her handkerchief.
As for Rozen, he had already closed his eyes. When he infused magic into the two girls, his Mind's Eye also operated at full speed.
Rozen had long known all the magic circuits of "Setsugetsuka."
As the eldest among the three sisters, Irori was honored as the "Snow" automaton, possessing outstanding spatial control and domain domination techniques. Her magic circuit was named "Himokagami," meaning a mirror that turns the surroundings into a frozen and snowy landscape with its formidable freezing magic.
In the past, at the residence of Karyusai Shouko, Rozen first encountered Irori, and at that time, he was attacked by her, almost getting injured by the icy onslaught released by Irori.
If Yaya's "Kongouriki" is an absolute invincibility and defense, ensuring she won't get hurt, then Irori's "Himokagami" is absolute dominance and offense. Therefore, among the "Setsugetsuka" series, she is the automaton with the highest combat power. If she has enough magic power, she can easily engulf an entire city in a blizzard.
In other words, Irori's combat power surpasses even that of Yaya.
This is why Irori is kept by Karyusai Shouko's side—not only because Irori is responsible for all the affairs in Shouko's residence, but also because she possesses enough combat power to protect Shouko from any threats, preventing harm from befalling her.
In contrast, Komurasaki, represents the other extreme.
Because Little Komurasaki is purely for support, assistance, and cover, she doesn't have much combat power herself. Her magic circuit is named "Yaegasumi," which can deceive the senses of various living beings, not just vision but also hearing and smell, making others unable to perceive her presence. It's an excellent deception magic.
Previously, when Karyusai Shouko and her group arrived in Liverpool, they were able to enter the academy without being noticed precisely because of Komurasaki's magic.
Naturally, Komurasaki can occasionally enter the academy and play around with Yaya, all thanks to this magic.
On the surface, this might not seem like a big deal and doesn't appear to be on par with "Himokagami" and "Kongouriki" and doesn't make Komurasaki the highest-grade automaton.
However, only Rozen knows that this kind of thinking is wrong.
And, it's a big mistake.
"Similar to Yaya's 'Kongouriki,' if it falls into the hands of an ordinary puppeteer, it can only be used to enhance physical abilities and exhibit strong defensive capabilities. Only in the hands of someone who has mastered 'Mind's Eye' can they pay attention to every detail, achieving an invincible effect. Similarly, 'Himokagami' and 'Yaegasumi' are by no means simple."
As mentioned before, what Karyusai Shouko creates is not something anyone can use casually but a divine weapon that can truly unleash its true value only when recognized.
By perfecting the activation of Komurasaki's magic circuit with his 'Mind's Eye' ability, Rozen immediately grasped the true nature of "Yaegasumi."
This ability...
"It's not just about deceiving the enemy's five senses; it can go further by dominating all sensory information of the enemy, creating illusions that can even induce pain."
This is the true ability of "Yaegasumi."
In essence, it is a mirage, but it's not about making people see things that don't exist.
When affected by "Yaegasumi," sound doesn't come from the direction of the source, the figure doesn't appear in its original position, the breath becomes unimaginably distant, and even taste and smell are confused. The sense of touch is either eroded by intense foreign sensations, causing intense pain, or simply nonexistent. It's an exceptionally excellent illusion.
At least in Rozen's vast knowledge of jutsuryoku, there are illusions that can rival "Yaegasumi," but each one is on the same level or even above forbidden jutsu, requiring thorough preparation and lengthy arrangements to achieve advanced techniques.
"If manipulated by someone with 'Mind's Eye,' this magic can make even those with 'Mind's Eye' unable to see through it, only to be played like a toy."
So, while Komurasaki may not have Irori's astonishing attacking power or Yaya's invincible defense, she possesses a more frightening ability to confuse. She can effortlessly trap enemies in illusions and provide unexpected assistance in both attacking and evading.
In addition to Irori's "Himokagami," which is equally formidable, if used by someone with 'Mind's Eye,' it can seize the target's heat energy at the atomic level, freezing everything without the need for snow or wielding ice blades. It only requires standing quietly in one place to turn the surroundings into an ice field silently.
"So this is the 'Setsugetsuka'?"
Admittedly, Rozen's emotions are also somewhat stirred.
These three sisters are truly treasures.
Perhaps, in terms of potential, they may not be as impressive as true dragons like Hokuto.
Perhaps, in terms of status, they may not match the deities like Kinu and Gyokuto.
However, if used by the current Rozen, simultaneously commanding these three sisters, then, with their combined efforts, they might be able to compete with top-tier Servants.
Even...
"If I can elevate them further..."
Rozen seems to see three brilliantly shining gems, envisioning them radiating countless splendors on the battlefield.
In this moment, Rozen feels immensely fortunate.
"Fortunately, I made an agreement with Shouko. After becoming the Wiseman, I can have all of you."
Rozen sincerely utters these words from the heart.
"T-Thank you very much for your praise!"
Irori's pretty face is still blushing, and her expression is not as calm and composed as usual. Instead, she seems somewhat flustered, with even her ears turning rosy.
"Hehe, Onee-sama is shy. Although Rozen indeed makes everyone feel comfortable. Hey, Rozen, let's do it again."
Komurasaki first chuckles, then looks at Rozen with shining eyes, speaking ambiguous words.
Seeing Irori in a state of blushing embarrassment, Komurasaki also gazes at Rozen with an expectant expression. Finally, Yaya can't take it anymore.
"Onee-sama! Komurasaki! Please go back!"
Yaya finally breaks into tears.
Surely, in all calculations, this girl didn't anticipate that the most dangerous Vixens would turn out to be her own sisters?!
