“Hey, wouldn’t you be underestimating me deep down?”
The figure in the pink hood fixed their gaze on Leo Ray briefly, furrowing their brow while saying, “True enough, for regular folks, the Power of Divine Grace remains incredibly enigmatic and hard to perceive. Even though I can’t wield it personally, that doesn’t imply I fail to identify it! The Outer Region stretches endlessly, and wielders of the Power of Divine Grace extend far beyond merely you, young one!”
Curiosity tinged the voice of the pink-hooded individual as they inquired, “On that note, young Human Clan member, precisely how did you come by the Power of Divine Grace? Plenty of Human Clan powerhouses exist out there too. Since when did the Human Clan muster the boldness and might to venture into the Outer Region?”
“Your Excellency, our time is limited; let’s focus on escaping this place first. Surely you’ve observed that our mission involves wiping out witch demons and demons, but their spatial disruptions have scattered us everywhere, turning every moment into a deadly gamble.”
Leo Ray cut off the other’s inquisitive line with a wry grin.
“You make a solid point; prioritizing the essentials is key.”
The pink-hooded figure gestured dismissively, and soon the entire group exited the hall, stepping back into the open area beyond the modest wooden cabin.
Right then, Leo Ray spotted that this open space featured surprisingly fertile ground, a stark contrast to the glassy crystals covering everywhere else.
“My personal storage dimension can accommodate an entire city, so carrying along some earth is no issue.”
Catching Leo Ray’s interested look, the pink-hooded figure responded indifferently, gesturing toward the hovering crystals that kept displaying external views: “As you can tell, I’m stuck unable to reenter actual space due to that demon’s spatial blockade.”
“Normally, even if the foe outmatched me slightly, I could shatter this simple spatial obstruction. The trouble lies in their superior power plus the backing of Evil God Power!”
A trace of irritation colored the pink-hooded person’s tone as they went on, “That’s the reason I’m confined here, powerless to pierce the enemy’s spatial barrier.”
Finishing that, the pink-hooded individual let out another sigh, their words laced with resignation, “It’s entirely my own doing for letting curiosity get the better of me. While traveling past this spot, I stumbled upon this forsaken city twisted by spatial folds and couldn’t resist slipping inside for a peek, only to stir up that monster who pursued me without mercy. In my panic, I got sealed by spatial lockdown, then dashed into a space fissure, winding up caught in this trap like a fly in a web, with no way out.”
“So, by tapping into my Power of Divine Grace, we can make it back to the real world?”
Excitement sparked in Leo Ray’s eyes, lighting up his expression.
“Exactly, I’ve studied this spatial barrier for years on end, needing only that last bit of effort!”
The pink-hooded figure affirmed with eager nods.
“Your Excellency, just one more query.”
Leo Ray reined in his racing pulse and posed, “Yet if the foe senses us during the barrier breach, won’t everything go to waste?”
“No need for concern; while the enemy’s spatial folding method packs a punch and overwhelms with force, it lacks finesse. Consequently, these spatial crevices here, much like ripples in waves, keep forming and breaking apart, staying wildly volatile. If not, it wouldn’t have crumbled from your mere presence.”
The pink-hooded person’s reply stayed steady and composed, “Thus, not even the spell’s originator can master these myriad spatial openings; otherwise, they’d have pinpointed my location ages ago. Would I still be hunkered down here?”
“I grasp it completely now, so could I ask what Your Excellency intends once we’re back in real space?”
Leo Ray arched his brows subtly, voicing his top priority question.
From the other’s account, he’d unraveled his inner doubts progressively, steering straight to the core issue.
“I see what you’re driving at; you’d like me on your side, correct?”
The pink-hooded figure cut straight to it without evasion, “Having been pinned down by that demon for decades, naturally I won’t let them escape scot-free. Your aims match mine perfectly, so aiding you is fitting, though I’ve got my own affairs afterward, so don’t expect me as your lifelong guardian.”
“Your Excellency’s offer to assist is more than I could hope for; I wouldn’t dream of asking more.”
Leo Ray flashed an easy smile and inclined his head toward the other.
Though the pink-hooded person had yet to unveil their identity or background to Leo Ray, their readiness to fight alongside him sufficed for now.
“Young Human Clan member, one last warning: that demon is a genuine Seventh Stage powerhouse, a mythic demigod whose might eclipses Tier 6 masters by leaps, so never take them lightly.”
The pink-hooded figure motioned once more, drawing the little wooden house and adjacent field into storage while adding, “If your skills fall short, don’t assume I’ll stick around to perish; blame me not if I bolt at top speed then.”
“I get your point, Your Excellency.”
Leo Ray dipped his head faintly and queried with interest, “In that case, may I learn about Your Excellency’s power level?”
“No secrets here; I stand at half-step Tier 7.”
The pink-hooded figure declared, planting hands on hips and thrusting out their chest proudly, “Thus, you ought to treat me with due reverence; I’m already toeing the demigod line!”
“Of course.”
Leo Ray wouldn’t slight the other in any way, responding with a grin, “So, Semi-Demigod Your Excellency, how exactly should I assist you in shattering the spatial barrier?”
“Shortly, I’ll set up a power-feeding formation, and you simply channel the Power of Divine Grace; I’ll manage the rest!”
Determination gleamed in the pink-hooded person’s eyes, and with a quick wrist flick beneath pink gloves, a vibrant short staff appeared.
Thanks to his deep knowledge of gear, Leo Ray instantly recognized it as a pristine Tier 6 Wand, impeccably preserved.
Judging by their perceptiveness and tools, this being was clearly no commoner, likely hailing from a top-tier faction among the Ten Thousand Clans, an entity far above Leo Ray’s current standing.
Furthermore, it marked the first unenhanced Tier 6 Wand he’d encountered. Still, he held back from impulsively upgrading it right there, avoiding any risk of sparking avarice that could harm his position.
“Young Human Clan member, prepare yourself; I’m starting now!”
As the pink-hooded person announced, the vivid staff swept through the air, summoning a colossal gray magical circle overhead that began whirling steadily, resembling a colossal cog.
And right below that vast circle, where Leo Ray’s team stood, a matching miniature version materialized, echoing the one suspended above.
“Young Human Clan member, pour in the Power of Divine Grace whenever you’re set!”
The pink-hooded person instructed, their formidable presence swelling as they pressed on with the incantation.
Hearing that, Leo Ray concentrated fully, directing a steady flow of Power of Divine Grace into the petite formation at his feet.
The very second the Power of Divine Grace integrated with the small formation, its soft golden glow raced over the gray structure’s face, making the whole thing blaze with intensified light.
At the same time, the overhead giant array echoed the change, with golden light waves rippling outward.
Bolstered by the golden sheen, the massive array accelerated its spin, plunging straight at the sleek crystal barrier and unleashing surges of potent Space Power.
Yet even as Leo Ray and the pink-hooded figure collaborated to tear down the spatial barrier, far inside the Bone Hall at the Giant City’s heart, a enormous shadow sprawled in the chamber’s depths suddenly snapped open crimson eyes, clearly sensing a shift.
