"Why the rush?"
Guy calmly savored his red wine: "Such a fellow will eventually walk with us."
Bai Luo would become a Demon Lord, and a True Demon Lord.
Guy was absolutely certain of this.
Thus, there would definitely be a place for Bai Luo at the Demon Lord's Banquet.
Guy was not in a hurry, because he would eventually see Bai Luo at the gathering.
"Don't make me wait too long."
Guy sighed: "The new wind of the world."
There was one thing he didn't tell Velzado.
That was, within the aura of the Golden Tree, Guy felt many unprecedented new rule powers.
This was not a native product of the Cardinal World.
From the Star Dragon King's creation until the moment he died, the world's rules were basically set.
Latercomers, they might possess powerful destructive force and could forge civilizations.
But it was impossible for them to create new rules out of nothing, like the Star Dragon King.
However, Bai Luo was different.
He could bring new order to this world, making it more wonderful and complete.
Indirectly speaking, Bai Luo, who could travel between different worlds, was even stronger than the Star Dragon King.
Because his future held infinite possibilities.
"What exactly is this..."
Outside the Jura Great Forest, like everyone around her, Izawa Shizuka looked at the Golden Tree, which was like a second sun.
Without hesitation, Izawa Shizuka rushed in the direction of the Jura Forest.
She wasn't going to investigate anything.
Instead, bathed in that light, Izawa Shizuka's constantly deteriorating body miraculously recovered a trace of vitality.
'Hope!'
Undoubtedly, this allowed Izawa Shizuka to see the possibility of a cure.
However, she wasn't doing it for herself.
It was for her students, the children who were nearing their end due to incomplete summons.
"If I can find the source of this power, perhaps..."
No matter what, Izawa Shizuka had to investigate.
"Isn't this commotion a bit too big?"
Returning to the Tengu Mountain battlefield, Bai Luo looked at the Golden Tree's canopy, which almost enveloped the entire Cardinal World.
This scene reminded Bai Luo of a game he played in his previous life—Elden Ring.
Of course, there was no comparison between the two.
The light emitted by the Star Holy Sword far surpassed the Golden Tree of the Lands Between; its branches even extended into the cosmos.
"Hoo~~"
Artoria held the Holy Sword, and one restraint after another once again sealed its power.
The girl didn't know what 'art is an explosion' meant.
But this feeling of firing a light cannon towards the sky truly made her unable to stop.
"Unfortunately, such power cannot be easily used."
The Star Holy Sword was almost Bai Luo's nuclear weapon.
The Star Holy Sword in its unsheathed state was when it was most deterrent.
If it were truly drawn, the opponent wouldn't just stand there and let you strike; they would definitely fight to the death.
You ask about Frey?
She was fine.
Artoria did not strike Frey with that sword; she directed most of her power towards the cosmos.
Otherwise, Artoria might have directly cut open the continent of the Cardinal World.
"How is she?"
"She passed out."
Snow Empress controlled an ice coffin, sealing a woman inside, who was none other than Queen Frey.
Even though she was only grazed by a tiny bit of the Star Holy Sword's power, Frey was still severely injured and fell into a coma.
However, Violet controlled the impact of the rule power on Frey.
Frey would awaken from her coma in at most half a day, with her body recovering about seventy to eighty percent.
"So, we still need to set up more seals."
"To prevent this fellow from suddenly erupting and harming others after she wakes up."
Snow Empress was very skilled in this aspect.
Her time power could be compressed like space, thereby creating shackles that were difficult to break free from.
'I'll just create a spacetime restraint suit and put it on this fellow.'
Coincidentally, due to their battle, Frey's clothes were completely shattered.
"It's over."
The matter with the Tengu Clan came to an end.
"Bing'er, open the portal, we're going back."
"Oh, oh!"
Ice Empress was still immersed in the power of the Star Holy Sword, and only reacted when Bai Luo urged her.
Thus, a portal leading to the town appeared before Bai Luo.
Before leaving, Bai Luo gave some instructions to Feng and Hongye.
First, Bai Luo told them to quickly sort out the internal affairs of the Tengu Clan, and then move the entire Tengu Hidden Village over.
In an Different World with spatial magic, geographical location was simply not important.
As long as they wanted to, there were countless ways to relocate their base camp.
Feng naturally agreed to this.
The Tengu Clan also had no objections.
After witnessing the fierce battle between Frey, Snow Empress, and Artoria, no one would have any resistance whatsoever.
As for the remaining Tianyi Country army, Bai Luo did nothing to them.
He had captured Frey.
This alone was enough to make the Tianyi Country hesitant.
A country with a Demon Lord and a country that had lost its Demon Lord were completely different concepts.
.. ..... ....
Leaving aside the reactions of the surrounding countries, how to deal with domestic unrest was a big problem.
'Your Majesty the Queen...'
Lucia watched helplessly as Frey's ice-sealed body was taken away by Bai Luo.
She wanted to go rescue her, but Shion found an opportunity and slashed her in front, directly causing severe injuries.
Fortunately, Frey was still alive and did not die directly in Bai Luo's hands.
As long as Frey could be redeemed, no matter the cost, it would be worth it.
"Lord Bai Luo!"
As soon as they returned, Shion immediately hugged Bai Luo, burying his head in her embrace: "We successfully repelled the Winged People as you commanded!"
"Hmm, you all did well."
Bai Luo had long been accustomed to Shion's bold behavior.
He pushed away the tall Ogre-kin older sister, then looked at Zhu Cai and Hong Maru, praising them a few times.
"Xue'er, bring Frey over."
Bai Luo told everyone else to leave first, leaving only Ice Empress, Peng Peng, Liya, and Snow Empress.
With these four Heavenly Kings by his side, a mere weakened and sealed Frey could not cause any trouble.
So, with a wave of Snow Empress's hand, an ice coffin appeared before everyone.
She removed the sealing power from it, but still left a portion, in the form of a restraint suit, worn by Frey.
"Are you going to transform her into a Retainer now?"
Artoria didn't think doing so was wrong.
She was concerned about Frey's safety.
