Before Aarons reached Jiang Yue, he had already spread out all his mental power.

The mental strength that had been trained many times without realizing it was now like a huge wave, sweeping towards the vortex of magic.

But as soon as he came into contact with the storm-like condensed magic power, his spirit immediately suffered a strong backlash.

"……Well!"

The pain that came back instantly, as if his brain was being torn apart, almost caused Aarons to stagger and fall to the ground while running.

——Is that the pain that Mo Qianyun is enduring?

"You still have time!"

And when his mental power extended again, completely covering the two people who were confronting each other, he clearly heard Jiang Yue's wish.

[We will save you... We will definitely do it! ]

"Yes, we can do it... I said we can do it!"

The invisible mental power turned from waves into a torrent, covering Jiang Yue and Mo Qianyun's bodies from top to bottom like a waterfall, and also transmitted his words directly into their minds.

……

"… Your Excellency the Marquis?"

When the mental pressure completely covered his body, Mo Qianyun's consciousness suddenly returned to normal.

The ancient magic that was devouring him was still operating, but the excruciating pain was somehow alleviated. The out-of-control magic power gradually returned to his body, condensing and compressing once again.

“Huh…ha…this feeling…”

But Aarons, who had finally rushed to Jiangyue's side, suddenly felt his legs go weak and he fell to the ground.

"Marquis! You——"

"It's okay! It's just... that you transferred your feelings to me..."

This was a technique he had used on Klia before.

In a state of connected consciousness, taking on the pain of the other person - this is one of the few things that Aarons can do alone.

"My Lord Marquis, I... that magic is still ordering me to kill you!"

However, even though the pain had eased, Mo Qianyun was still struggling.

When the storm-like magical energy was absorbed back by her, purple lightning flashed continuously on her body.

——She was using magic to forcibly suppress her movements.

"Please leave quickly! Otherwise I... I will..."

When she was hit by the ancient magic before, she was also given an order at the same time.

So the magic not only eroded her self, but also forced her to complete this task that went against her will.

"…You were going to kill me anyway, it doesn't matter."

Enduring the unspeakable horrible pain, Aarons slowly stood up.

The boiling blood took away the fear and kept his brain calm and clear even in the severe pain. And it was because of this that he saw a possibility that should not have existed.

"Since you want to challenge me again, now is the perfect opportunity! Follow your heart... think about what you want to do most!"

……

Aarons did see an opportunity.

The fact that Mo Qianyun has been able to hold on until this moment has proven that she has an extraordinary will.

If I could somehow make her consciousness resonate deeply with mine, then maybe I could use my mental power to completely dispel the magic.

Therefore, he told Jiang Yue his plan in his mind -

[Teacher Jiangyue, fight her... Let her release all her strength and give up resistance at the end of the battle.]

[Give up resistance... Marquis! If you do that, she will——]

[Even if I have to use such despicable means, I will definitely save her... Please believe me! ]

Because he was still enduring the pain on behalf of Mo Qianyun, Aarons did not have the energy to explain too much to Jiangyue. But his strong will was clearly conveyed to Jiangyue's heart.

He will never give up his wish easily——

……

"Marquis...I understand!"

After hearing Aarons' thoughts in the resonating consciousness, Jiang Yue, who was originally a little hesitant, instantly returned to her usual free and easy self.

The long-handled magic sword spear turned lightly in her hand for a few times, and then pointed at Mo Qianyun's body.

"Ms. Qianyun, I know what your wish is. So... let's fight."

Seeing that Jiang Yue was ready for battle, Mo Qianyun, who had already taken all the magic power back into his body, finally revealed a rare smile on his face.

——Whether it was an order or her own intention, she actually wanted to fight Jiang Yue.

Train yourself, challenge the strong, and keep improving... Although no one has ever acknowledged her strength, she has always followed this original intention and moved forward alone in this world.

The two people in front of her not only acknowledged her strength, but also recognized her efforts, and even wanted to give her a better future.

…So there was only one thing she had to do.

"My Lord Marquis, Master... my soul will soon be devoured by that magic."

Using thunder magic to force every inch of muscle in his body, Mo Qianyun slowly stood up. Then he reached out and gathered his long hair behind his neck, tying it into a simple knot.

"Although the time was short, but... I am already satisfied to have known you two at the end of my life."

Although he did not carry any weapons, Mo Qianyun slowly crossed his hands and placed them under his ribs as if preparing to draw his sword.

After seeing her stance, Jiang Yue also put her hands on the gun handle.

"I have no regrets in my life! So in this battle, I will go all out!"

Even though her will and spirit were about to be eroded and devoured by magic, Mo Qianyun still maintained her usual integrity - she was determined to use this final battle to put a perfect end to her short life.

"No regrets even if I lose, no regrets even if I die! True Demon Sword, draw your sword——"

The magic power compressed to the limit became a physical entity, and following Mo Qianyun's delicate and light movements, it separated from her body. Then, Aarons and Jiang Yue saw two clear blades, one black and one white, one light and one dark.

——She, who had no weapon, pulled out two long swords made entirely of magic power from her body.

"That's right. If you want to be my apprentice, you must have such strength!"

At this time, the violent thunder and lightning and the blazing flames also gathered on the sword and spear in Jiangyue's hands.

The two different kinds of magic made the sword extend and expand, turning it into a destructive blade capable of sweeping away everything.

"...Let me see what kind of power you possess."

When both men were ready for battle, Aarons' whisper became the signal for the battle to begin.
