Elitra takes a single knife out of her chest pocket and rotates it in the air with a circle. Then that knife increases to two in the air, and Elitra catches them magnificently. Repeat that, the knife increases by four or eight.

"... is that some kind of spell too?

"No, this is just a trick. But please note that the knife is poisoned."

Elitra throws the four knives she grabs on her left hand toward Kiel. Then a wall of dirt formed before Kiel's eyes, preventing four knives. Then Elitra throws the four knives he grabs on his right hand, but they are also prevented by the walls of the earth.

"Unfortunately, it's useless to do just that kind of small work"

"What about that? Gaze guidance (misdirection) is one of the basics of tricks."

"... what?

Two pigeons that Elitra let out of her silk hat earlier. Those pigeons are flying patterned at Kiel's oblique rear. Then suddenly the pigeons turned into knives and were released towards Kiel.

That was an attack that totally poked Kiel's surprise. But even then a wall of dirt formed behind Kiel, and the two knives were buried in that wall.

"Oh? The attack now should have been completely out of your consciousness. Why is that prevented...?

"Apparently you're making a mistake."

"... a mistake?

"This soil is not moving at my will. The soil is forming arms of its own will to attack you, forming walls to protect me. This is the power of my soil space."

"... do you even say that this soil is alive?

"That's an ant idea, too."

Then from ceilings, walls, floors and all directions many arms of dirt formed, surrounding Elitra in an instant.

"Come on, can we get around this number with the earlier [mess box]?

"... you can't"

Did Elitra give up, take a big breath out of her shoulder. Shortly afterwards, the arms of the dirt struck simultaneously, and Elitra was crushed.

"That wasn't surprising - I just wanted to say, it wouldn't be the kind of balls that get hit to this extent"

Part of the floor is moving with a mockingbird. Eventually it became a big hole, from which a box of rectangles emerged with smoke.

"... Again"

Kiel smiles invincibly. Eventually the box slowly opened and Elitra appeared from inside.

"Genesee Oose!! This is the Great Escape Show of the Magician Elitra!"

Kiel gave a spare round of applause to Elitra, who spread her hands wide open.

"Brilliant. Enemy and apparition."

"Hoho. Looks like you enjoyed it. Most importantly. But this is where my show starts. Spell [Fantasy Split]!

Pattin and finger ringing elitra. Then Elitra increased from one to two and from two to three, and eventually to more than fifty.

"Come on, can you hit me for real!?"

All Elitra takes the knife out of his chest pocket and hits Kiel.

"... this is troublesome"

Many earthy arms are formed to react to it, crushing Elitra's splits one after the other. But the number of elitras was clearly beyond what the arms of the earth could handle.

Elitra's body dances over Kiel's head in that gap. It was Kiel who instantly realized it, but soon after he used the spell while avoiding it, Kiel raised his right arm to defend him.

"One arm, I'll have it!

To slash Kiel's right arm off, Elitra shook the knife down vigorously.

!!

But that's where Elitra sees a startling sight. The knife that shook down Kiel's arm to slash him off had only carved Kiel's skin by about a few millimeters. The arm was as solid as a diamond.

"I'm sorry. My arm isn't cheap enough to give you a knife."

"... is it a monster"

Keep it up, Kiel grabs Elitra's arm with his left hand. Then he put his strength into the fist of his right hand and burst it into Elitra's abdomen.

"Ha ha!!"

Elitra's body was blown away by Kiel's blow like a meteorite crashing into the rear wall.

"The number of spells in my possession is pretty small compared to the Seals, but ATK and DEF are the highest of the Seven Star Angels. A strong body is a sign that you are a warrior."

That's when Kiel realized her right arm was starting to become paralyzed. If you look at the wound on your right arm, you can see from there that your skin stains with wrinkles and purple.

"Speaking of which, you said the knife was poisoned or something. If the poison turns all over my body, I'll be tough. We're gonna need to settle this before we do."

Kiel looks to Elitra, who plunges heavily into the dirt wall.

"... if only he was still alive."

Elitra's body peels off the wall and falls to the floor dozzily. But Elitra managed to wake up her body and stood up holding her abdomen down with her right hand.

"Wow. I'm impressed you can still stand after eating a blow all over me. Is the boulder under the reigning king or something?"

"... ho ho ho. You don't qualify as a magician if you throw a show on the way out. Performing a pinch is what entertainment is all about……!!"

Eritra said as she wiped the blood flowing out of the gap in the mask.

- Top floor of the seven-star Mitsuko Castle - King VS Seal -

"Shall I ask you one thing before I give you my life? What are you hunting human souls for?

I ask Seal as he turns his eyes to the 'pot of souls' placed behind Seal. The purpose for which the Seven Star Angels are gathering people's souls has already been heard from Raphael, but we need to make sure it is true.

"To unseal the Phantom Beast Gate and revive the Phantom Beast. You have to sacrifice 1,000 human souls to unseal the gates."

"And use the power of the resurrected phantom beast to destroy the remainder..."

"That's a good guess. But more than you've shown up here, you're going to have to fight straight away."

Is it still exactly what Raphae was talking about?

"We know that you were awarding the [Soul Absorbing] spell to other Seven Star Angels to hunt their souls. A man named Gabri taught me politely."

When I say that, Seal sighs like a coward. [M]

"Dude, do something extra... You're right, I was giving other guys [Soul Absorption] spells by [Capability Sharing]"

"[Capability Sharing] …. [Capability Grant] Top Compatibility, etc."

In the case of [Grant of Capability] in my possession, the spell I give to others disappears from within me, so it's closer to saying transfer than grant. The [disaster rays] I gave Lina are gone from me. [M] Nor can it be given to more than one person at the same time.

"I can't say it's easy. [Capability-sharing] has the disadvantage that if the holder of the spell dies or loses the spell for any reason, all spells given to others will also disappear."

"... is that true?

"Whoa, my mouth accidentally slipped. Perhaps even including humans and demons, [soul absorption] doesn't exist except for the eagle. I mean, if the eagle dies here, there will be no more means to take the human soul."

"... I see"

Heard good things. The big premise is that this guy isn't lying, but you're saying that if we bury Seal, we won't have to worry about people's souls being taken any more?
