1146 -1132- Aren't you afraid of death?

The event quietly came to a close.

Kanase Kensei admitted his defeat and ceased all resistance, allowing La Folia to pass judgment.

Kanase Kensei's two companions seized the opportunity to escape, even attempting to attack La Folia and use her as a hostage.

However, they were swiftly defeated and even killed on the spot by Tobias and Kira, who had recovered thanks to their vampire regeneration abilities.

This decisive action demonstrated to others that their strength was unquestionable, approaching that of the Third Generation Elders. If not for the surprise attack, they wouldn't have been injured by a mere vampire and an unknown beastman.

As for Kanase Kanon, she was naturally rescued under Rozen's intervention.

La Folia not only captured Kanase Kensei but also accepted Kanase Kanon, claiming she would handle the matters between them properly.

Regarding Kanase Kensei's experiments and modifications on members of the royal family, as well as Kanase Kanon's status as an illegitimate daughter of the royal family, it is believed that La Folia will need to handle these issues properly, hopefully leading to a happy resolution for all parties involved.

Later, Yukina also asked Rozen.

"What did La Folia say to you that made you willing to give up dealing with Kanase Kensei?"

Yukina asked this question.

And Rozen answered.

"Kanase Kensei's sister is actually Kanase Kanon's mother."

That's what La Folia said to Rozen.

In other words...

"Kanase-san and Kanase Kensei really are related by blood?"

Yukina was extremely surprised.

"That's right." Rozen said with annoyance, "He doesn't lack feelings for her and wasn't modifying her for his own research purposes."

This point could be seen from Kanase Kensei's behavior when Kanase Kanon was defeated. At that time, Kanase Kensei's immediate reaction wasn't frustration, sadness, or anger at the defeat of the Faux Angel he had meticulously crafted.

Instead, he was anxious, worried, and even frightened when Kanase Kanon was injured.

This indicates that Kanase Kensei cares deeply for Kanase Kanon.

Although Rozen completely couldn't understand why, if those feelings were involved, why would that guy modify Kanase Kanon into an angel. Even La Folia was completely puzzled by this and only said one thing.

"Let me handle it."

La Folia seemed prepared to thoroughly investigate this aspect with Kanase Kensei.

With this in mind, Rozen handed Kanase Kensei over to La Folia for disposal.

"Hopefully, the final outcome will be good."

Rozen could only express this, and Yukina nodded silently.

Not long after, La Folia successfully contacted members of the Holy Ring Knights and summoned them to the cruise ship.

Because Kanase Kensei only wanted Kanase Kanon to engage in intense combat against formidable enemies, causing the spiritual central core to operate at full speed, sublimating into an angel, and ascending to a higher dimension, he himself was not attached to the Knights and didn't want to be hindered by them.

So, he spent some time preparing a spatial transfer spell to discreetly transport the members of the Holy Ring Knights to the other side of Itogami Island, preventing them from intervening.

It can be seen that Kanase Kensei's skills are indeed outstanding. He not only can perform the Faux Angel ritual but also use such a large-scale spatial transfer spell. Although he can't use it as freely as Rozen can and requires a lot of preparation, it is enough to demonstrate his high level of ability. Becoming the court mage technician of Aldegyr is not accidental.

Now, the members of the Knights have rushed back and, according to La Folia's orders, are escorting Kanase Kensei while taking Kanase Kanon to recuperate.

At the same time, Vatler also instructed Tobias and Kira to arrange things for the celebrities coming to the party.

The celebrities coming to the party should not encounter any danger.

However, since the incident happened only because they came to attend Vatler's party, as the host, Vatler naturally needs to console them. Sending Tobias and Kira over to handle it is also reasonable.

In addition, there are many other unresolved matters.

For example, the previous battle, although it took place in the sea area near the artificial island, still affected Itogami Island, causing a tsunami to hit the northern port of Itogami Island, and even damaging the peripheral ports.

I believe the management cooperative of the artificial island is now at its wits' end, right?

This aftermath may cause billions of losses again.

As for Vatler, he also suffered some losses.

"My Oceanus Grave is damaged like this. It's probably unusable now."

Vatler stood on the deck, looking at the half-destroyed cruise ship, and said such words without any tension.

On the side, Rozen and his companions were still present.

"This was caused by your battle with the angel, it has nothing to do with us," Rozen said indifferently.

"Se-Senpai..."

Yukina couldn't help but tug at Rozen's sleeve, signaling him not to say such things, and the jealousy on Sayaka Kirasaka's face was evident to those around them.

"Today, I thank you for the invitation, Duke Ardeal," La Folia Rihavein said with a smile, indicating her stance of staying out of the matter, quite pleased to see Dimitrie Vatler's discomfort.

The princess seemed to have regained her mischievous nature, showing no mercy to their former enemy.

Of course, Vatler himself didn't mind.

"As there are spare ships in the territory, we can just use one of those. It shouldn't take long to have one brought over," Vatler said, turning to Rozen.

"Being able to witness the power of the Divine Child, a mere ship is nothing as a price," Vatler stated, with a genuine smile on his face.

After this incident, Vatler felt quite satisfied to have witnessed Rozen's power.

However, Vatler didn't demand an immediate duel, instead, he patiently endured, like savoring a fine dish, both patient and eager.

This patience, if unleashed in the future, would surely unleash Vatler's strength far beyond what he had shown before, willing to engage in a deadly battle regardless of the consequences.

The others felt Vatler's determination and tensed up.

But...

"What kind of power is that?" Sayaka Kirasaka stared at Rozen, a rare heavy tone in her voice as she questioned.

"As a human, to touch the power of the beast vassals, even if it displayed remarkable achievements because of it, that doesn't count as strength at all. Aren't you afraid of death?" Sayaka Kirasaka's questioning made everyone turn their gaze to Rozen.

"I also wanted to say this, senpai," Yukina said earnestly, "Beast vassals are not a power that humans should use. You shouldn't have recklessly summoned them just to repel the enemy."

Yukina blamed him for this, even expressing concern for Rozen.

Only Vatler and La Folia Rihavein...

"Don't worry, Yukina, Sayaka. Nichiyo isn't that foolish," La Folia Rihavein smiled.

Even Vatler said so.

"Haven't you noticed? Despite using so many beast vassals, he doesn't show any signs of abnormality," Vatler's joyful words made Yukina and Sayaka Kirasaka finally notice.

Rozen not only looked relaxed but even appeared casually lazy.
