"That is…" Queen Helena looked at the scene in shock. She was sure that the particle rain was the same phenomenon in that village.

(How could it happen in this place? Didn't Ziel say that the particle rain would only occur around that village!? Wait a minute...)

Queen Helena thought about why the particle rain suddenly appeared in the academy. She still couldn't believe it when she saw the scene and guessed it was something different. But no matter how she saw it, she was sure it was the same phenomenon as that village. Then Queen Helena's face suddenly changed after remembering something.

"Leave this place and go back to the cottage right now!" Queen Helena screamed from the depths of her lungs to warn the girls.

The faces of Kalya and the girls changed after hearing Queen Helena's voice. They didn't question her words and quickly flew back into the cottage. The girls knew that Queen Helena wouldn't say something like that for no reason.

Soon after, a beast's roar resounded and confused the girls. Monsters like that shouldn't exist in that area. Then they looked to Queen Helana for an explanation. Kalya had already guessed what was happening, but the girls still didn't know anything about the situation.

"That's..." Queen Helena was about to explain but remembered that the girls didn't know she was accompanying Ziel in that village. She quickly stopped her words and glanced at Kalya for help. Kalya could only sigh when she saw those eyes.

"I think this is the same particle rain that happened in that village. Didn't Ziel tell you this morning after breakfast?" Kalya looks at Clara and the girls and reminds them.

"I remember about it. But didn't Ziel say that it only happened around that village? Then why did the strange rain of particles suddenly appear here? Besides, how can you quickly recognize this phenomenon, mother? Didn't we hear it together this morning?" Princess Freya looked at Queen Helena suspiciously.

"Now is not the time to discuss that matter, Freya. Did you hear the beast roar before? I think it was the evolution of animals and insects that Ziel meant in his explanation." Kalya tried to change the topic of their conversation to prevent Princess Freya from continuing to ask Queen Helena.

"What exactly is particle rain? Is it that dangerous?" Azalia asked in confusion. Among the women in the cottage, she was the only one who didn't understand how serious the current situation was.

"It is perilous, Miss Azalia. It affected me even though I didn't make direct contact with the particles. According to Ziel, it would be dangerous if outsiders other than the gray-haired people touched it." Lilith replied politely. Azalia is the Princess of her race, and she must treat her well. After that, Lilith explained what had happened to her and Clara. In addition, Lilith also told what she and the girls had heard from Ziel this morning.

Azalia pondered after hearing Lilith's explanation. If what she said was true, they were in a dangerous situation as this was directly related to the last continent's guardian.

"Hmm… did you say gray-haired person before?" Azalia looked at Lilith and urged her to answer.

"Yes. The gray-haired people." Lilith nodded.

"In that case, isn't it obvious that the cause was the two people I saw back then?" Azalia looked at Kalya because she had asked her about the two people.

"I didn't see them because the rain of particles suddenly appeared and distracted me. But if you see gray-haired people, they are most likely the cause." Kalya didn't know what the characteristics of the two people Azalia had seen were. But if they have gray hair, it can be ascertained that the particle rain is their doing.

"So, we have to catch those two people?" Princess Iris asked.

"Yes. We should try to catch them. But if they fight back and get the situation out of control, you can kill them. I'm sure Ziel won't mind it. Your safety is of utmost importance." Kalya said coldly. She will not tolerate anyone who intends to harm her family.

"Unfortunately, you can't do that." Azalia suddenly interrupted their conversation.

"Why?" Queen Helena asked.

"Because those two people have disappeared from this area. I've tried looking for them but can't find them anywhere." Azalia opened the curtain and looked at where she had seen the two gray-haired people before. Kalya and the girls also looked at the location but couldn't find the person Azalia was referring to. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

"So we can only defend and prevent the evolved beasts from approaching this cottage? But we don't know how long this weird rain will last. If this thing doesn't go away by tomorrow, won't all living things in this area become monsters?" Kyouka looked at Kalya and asked.

"Right now, all we can do is attack those monsters from afar and reduce their numbers little by little. Don't let yourself be touched by the particles. Ziel has warned us that it is dangerous and fatal even for you, Azalia." Kalya looks at the girls seriously. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

"I understand. After all, I would never underestimate anything related to the guardian of the continent." Azalia smiled bitterly when she saw the girls' eyes gathered on her. They thought that Azalia would act rashly because she was a true god and was the strongest person in the place for now.

"Okay. You can split up now. This cottage has windows on all sides; you can attack from that position. You don't need to think about the defense of this place because Ziel has made this house a god-rank artifact, and its defenses are many times stronger than ours combined." Kalya wants them to focus on attacking regardless of the safety of this house.

"Ah, you can fire large-scale magic without worrying about the environmental damage because Ziel will fix it for you." Kalya added.

"We understand." The girls answered in unison and quickly left the place. The only people left there were Kalya, Queen Helena, and Azalia. Not long after, there was an explosion sound from outside.

Booooooooooooommmmmmmmmmm!

Clara and the girls had started attacking the monsters from inside the cottage. After that, explosion after explosion sounded outside. Kalya, Azalia, and Queen Helena keep an eye on the situation around them.

"Azalia, can you break the barrier that covers this area? I believe it isolated us from the outside world, and Ziel couldn't figure out our current state." Kalya asked Azalia while shooting her arrow at the evolved beasts approaching the cottage.

"I can't do anything about it. If I could break it, I would have done it since the barrier was formed. But as I was about to attack the barrier, a terrifying pressure suddenly appeared and locked onto my power. After that, the particle rain suddenly fell, and you know the rest of the story." Azalia smiled bitterly and shook her head.

"So, you can't use your power now?" Kalya looks at Azalia worriedly.

"You don't have to worry. It was only temporary, and my strength was back. Even so, I felt like I couldn't break the barrier with my full strength. If it's Ziel, he might be able to do it." Azalia opened her palm, and divine power condensed into a ball and threw it at the swarm of monster fireflies.

Booooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmm!

"So our choice now is to stay in this place while killing the monsters, so they don't get close to the Cottage. I hope Ziel realizes our situation and returns soon." Queen Helena said with a gloomy face. Then she cast her magic on a giant cicada flying toward them.

Boooooooooooommmmmmmm!

"What is the purpose of those two people confining us in this area? If they have something to do with the guardian of the continent, does that mean you and Lilith are the targets?" Kalya guessed that the two gray-haired people were related to the guardian of the continent. Their goal should be to eliminate the irregulars. But she was confused as to why they had locked the girls in a barrier and flooded them with evolved beasts.

(Do they think they can wipe us out with the particle rain and the beasts?)

"I also think that way. They might want to eliminate us all at once. Even though the continent's guardians aim to eliminate the irregulars, they will not hesitate to kill innocent people." Azalia said in a deep voice.

"Wait a minute! What exactly are you talking about!? I know about the continent's guardians, but why are they after you? Aren't they only targeting irregulars?" Queen Helena asked in confusion. She still didn't know Lilith and Azalia were from the divine race.

"We can talk about that later. We'd better be prepared for that." Kalya replied with a trembling voice, and her eyes kept looking toward the sky. Next to her, Azalia raised her head, and her face became grave.

"Aren't they just little monsters? Why can't you answer my question now…" Queen Helena looked in the direction the two women were looking and fell silent. A giant finger appeared from the sky and headed toward them.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!

***

When Kalya and the girls in the cottage were getting attacked by two unknown gray-haired people, Ziel and the two princesses came to the construction site of the city guardian battle platform one after another and were currently in fifth place.

The people working at the construction site didn't dare to question the reason for Ziel's visit after seeing Princess Irene and Princess Cordelia.

Currently, they were walking in the middle of the city with Ziel's position flanked by Princess Cordelia and Princess Irene. It made him the center of attention because he walked with two beautiful flowers on his right and left sides. But Ziel didn't care about it because he was focused on finding the whereabouts of the two gray-haired people he had seen earlier.

"How many constructions are there in the academy?" Ziel asked Princess Cordelia. He asked her because the other party knew more about the project than Princess Irene. The latter was just a demi-human representative overseeing the artifact's construction.

"There are thirteen in all. So there are still eight more that we haven't visited yet. We will accompany you to the remaining construction." Princess Cordelia said with a sweet smile, and Princess Irene nodded in agreement with her.

"No need. I've had enough of those five constructions. I wanted to see the artifact project out of curiosity and not for any important reason." Ziel politely rejected Princess Cordelia's words. He was done with his goal by looking at those five artifact constructions and didn't want to waste time looking at the rest.

"Is that so?" Princess Cordelia and Princess Irene looked disappointed by Ziel's reply.

"Yes. However, you can accompany me for a walk in the city, and we can have lunch together at one of the well-known restaurants around the academy." Ziel couldn't help but sigh when he saw the two girls pouting. How could he not know the purpose of Clara and the others asking the two girls to accompany him? So he should at least treat them well.

"Is it true!?" Princess Cordelia and Princess Irene asked in disbelief, and their lousy mood immediately changed after hearing Ziel's words.

"Of course. Think of it as a gift because you accompanied me to the artifact construction site." Ziel intended to lead the way toward the restaurant he was referring to, but he suddenly frowned after feeling his connection with Kalya and the girls in the Cottage cut off.

"I'm sorry, but we have to postpone our plan. I feel something has happened at the cottage." Ziel suddenly hugged Princess Cordelia and Princess Irene's waist. The two girls were confused by Ziel's actions but didn't fight back when he touched them. After that, they disappeared from that place.

Ziel and the two princesses reappeared outside the academy forest area, making Ziel's face serious. He was sure he had teleported to the cottage but couldn't do it and bounced instead.

He checked his surroundings and then frowned upon noticing that there was a powerful barrier covering the place. Princess Cordelia and Princess Irene also faintly felt it. They were confused as to why a barrier had suddenly appeared in that area.

"You back off. I will destroy this barrier." Ziel said seriously, and the two girls quickly kept their distance from him.

Ziel pointed his palm towards the barrier. After that, the nine-colored light gathered and condensed into a giant magic circle.

[Ultimate Dragon's Breath]

Ziel fired a nine-colored laser beam at full power toward the barrier.

Booooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!

Clank!

"Let's go!" Ziel quickly embraced Princess Cordelia and Princess Irene after breaking the barrier. The two girls didn't have time to answer because Ziel was moving at a terrifying speed. When they arrived at the lake, they were shocked after seeing the scene in front of them.

"What's that?" Princess Irene muttered in a trembling voice. In front of them were a pile of monster corpses, a rain of gray light particles, and a giant finger that fell from the sky right above Ziel's residence.

"Damn!" Ziel clicked his tongue and quickly teleported into the cottage.

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
