"Already at the age of burying yourselves, yet still chattering away, how annoying."
"!!!!"
As Blake's words fell, the atmosphere turned silent, and everyone's faces darkened, especially the three Supreme Elders, whose expressions were flushed with rage.
While the crowd was overcome with fury and losing their composure, Blake's entire aether energy abruptly transformed into the purest form of Mana energy, surging skyward and instantly shattering the surrounding oppression.
At the same time, the veins on Blake's exposed skin swelled, forming faint blue patterns that flowed with astonishing magical energy.
This sight left everyone astonished, their pupils constricting as they stared in terror at the razor-sharp presence emanating from Blake's entire being!
Instinct told them that the current Blake was incredibly dangerous!
And the truth proved to be just that—
In the next moment, a chant brimming with an aura of sharpness echoed across the sky through Blake:
"体は剣で出来ている."
(My body is made of swords.)
"血潮は鉄で心は硝子."
(My blood is of iron, and my heart of glass.)
"幾たびの戦場を越えて不敗."
(I have overcome countless battlefields undefeated.)
"ただ一度の敗走もなく."
(Not once have I retreated.)
"ただ一度の勝利もなし."
(Not once have I tasted victory.)
"担い手ここに独り,剣の丘で鉄を鍛つ."
(The bearer stands here alone, forging steel on the hill of swords.)
"ならば,我が生涯に意味は不要ず."
(Thus, my life needs no meaning.)
"この体は'無限の剣'で出来ていた."
(This body was made of 'Unlimited Blades'.)
By the time the crowd sensed something amiss and wanted to interrupt Blake, the chant had already ended. A thunderous explosion reverberated through the heavens, and everyone's vision shifted abruptly, leaving them all wide-eyed in horror.
This was a world of countless sword gravestones scattered across a crimson wilderness. On the horizon danced flames, and in the distance were several enormous interlocking gears.
The swords embedded in the crimson wilderness each exuded an extraordinary aura, evoking awe.
"Where is this…?!"
Sweeping their gazes over the surroundings, even the three Supreme Elders, who were usually calm, were stunned and incredulous at the sight before them.
"Is this… a Separate Dimension?"
Cao Cao, too, was shocked as he observed the scene around him, murmuring to himself.
"What do you think?"
Then Cao Cao turned to the youth behind him, asking.
"Yes, it's a Separate Dimension. But compared to my Dimension Lost, it's much inferior."
Hearing this, the slightly delicate-looking youth nodded in acknowledgment.
Ordinary youths would neither appear in such a place nor remain so composed. The boy's name was Georg, the wielder of the Longinus Class Sacred Gear, Dimension Lost. As a member of the Hero Faction, he was one of Cao Cao's trusted associates.
"So, it's as I thought. This is indeed fascinating."
Cao Cao's eyes narrowed as he spoke, gazing meaningfully at Blake and Lia.
Lia's power was something he absolutely needed. With it, combined with his Sacred Gear, True Longinus, many plans could be advanced ahead of schedule, giving him greater leverage within the Khaos Brigade.
However, Blake posed a hindrance. Cao Cao had to find an opportunity to either eliminate or capture him.
As his eyes narrowed, a myriad of schemes flashed through his mind as he gazed at the cold and resolute Blake.
Initially, Blake had always been under his surveillance. The reason for orchestrating this so called arena battle to force Lia into submission was also due to threatening Blake's life.
Although Cao Cao could directly threaten Lia to hand over her power, it felt too risky. Thus, he refrained from taking such a gamble, fearing that Lia might act recklessly.
Unexpectedly, Blake defeated Riser Phenex and then violently returned to the Silva family.
This development slightly exceeded Cao Cao's calculations.
Meanwhile, Lia glanced around with a peculiar expression before turning her gaze back to Blake, her eyes filled with newfound admiration.
It seemed that her brother's hidden strength was far greater than she had imagined.
"Welcome to my world. I believe this will serve as a perfect grave for all of you."
As Blake finished speaking, his crystal-blue eyes flickered slightly before locking onto the crowd of Silva family members.
The moment his words fell, before the Silva family members could respond, the massive gears on the desolate land began to spin rapidly.
At the same time, the thousands of projected weapons embedded in the ground rose into the air under the shocked gazes of the onlookers, densely hovering above, their chilling glints dazzling in the dim space.
"Quick, defend!!"
Seeing this, even the three Supreme Elders, with their Demon Lord-Class strength, felt a chill run down their spines, their scalps tingling as they frantically shouted orders.
If their defenses faltered, it might truly lead to the annihilation of the Silva family's bloodline.
Whoosh!!
Just as the three Supreme Elders hastily set up a defensive formation, the weapons in the sky began radiating a brilliant silver glow, amplifying their intimidating presence. The next moment, thousands of weapons shot out like a torrential downpour, scattering across all directions!
Clang
Puchi—Puchi—Puchi—Puchi
Instantly, apart from the area near the three Supreme Elders, every direction was filled with despair as the family members were pierced through by the weapons, turning them into hedgehogs.
Their defensive formations were as fragile as paper against these weapons!
