Jin, furious, sends instructions to the ninja unit through Reiko.

"Throw out those who have been incapacitated.

"Call me when there are no more humans left.

"Go, sir.

"I'm off."

Elm and Ash, who had sent Erza, headed for the fort again.

Jin, Erza, Reiko, Dahlia, and Kanna remained.

"Jin, where are those golems?"

Erza asked what she wanted to ask.

"They're the covert task force (SP), a.k.a. the Ninja Squad."

"Ninja force?"

She didn't know what a ninja was.

"Oh. In short, they are the golems who protect me without usually showing themselves.

That's the explanation for now.

"When did you make them?"

"What?　Well, after I left Egelea's castle, I guess.

"What?　Where did you make it?　I didn't see you making them."

Jin hesitated for a moment, wondering what to do, but then decided to make up his mind.

"On Horai Island, you know."

"Houraito?　Not Conlonteau?

"Yes. I'll explain everything when this is over.

Jin calm Elsa down.

"Father, Ash has an interim report. All of them have been neutralized except for the head. They're being carried out of the fort now."

"Okay, that's good. ...... keep the head intact."

Jin then looked at Erza,

"I'm going to go show Erza's tormentor what I can do. Wait here. Dahlia and Kanna stay with Erza.

He said this and started to walk away, but Erza grabbed him by the hem of his dress.

"Wait. Take me with you."

"Are you okay?"

We're going back to the place we just escaped from. Jin is worried.

"I'll be fine with you, Jin. I'm fine with Jin. ...... but please don't leave me alone."

There were frightened eyes like those of a little puppy dog. Jin, sensing Erza's anxiety, nodded his head.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Erza took his hand and stood up.

"Reiko, Dahlia, Kanna, let's go.

"Yes."

Jin walked out with the three of them.

"<>"

Jin created a ball of light and held it in the air. This is a ball of light that remains lit until the magic power contained in it runs out. Jin creates 10 of them and floats them around the fort. It is now as bright as daylight.

"Barrier".

He also deployed a magic barrier around Elsa and himself. Without stopping, he steps into the fortress.

"Don't worry. I'll protect her no matter what.

"...... yeah."

He walked through the uninhabited fortress to the second floor. This is the office and living quarters of Purcell, who calls himself the head of the 8th branch.

As Jin was walking, he asked Erza about the general situation.

"Open the door."

Kanna, who had been following him, stepped forward and kicked the door open. The heavy, ornate-looking door was blown open like a leaf.

"Who are you?"

A panicked voice said. In the corner of the room, there is a thin man in a white robe. He was guarded on either side by a pitch-black golem, and he carried a long staff that appeared to be overly decorated.

"...... Purcell."

Jin did not miss the look of fear in Erza's eyes when she saw the man.

"So you're the branch manager."

"Yes, I am. I am Parcel Marces de Canagelion, the leader of the 8th branch of the Unification Party (Unifiler)!　And you are?

Jin chuckles,

"I'm the Nido Jin you've been wondering about."

Hearing this, Purcell's face contorted in a complicated manner.

"I see!　So it was worth it to take Miss Randall hostage. Now pledge your allegiance to the Unifiler!

Purcell says in a grandiose manner.

"Don't play with me!"

But Hitoshi said in a voice so cold that Erza, who was standing next to him, could hardly believe her ears.

"I don't care what you call yourselves or what you're up to, as long as I don't get in trouble.

Erza couldn't help but look at Jin's face at these words.

"The golem fiasco wasn't aimed at me either. Well, I was pissed off at the time, and I had to pay for the fire that came my way."

Jin takes a breath and then speaks in a lower voice.

"But not this time. You kidnapped Erza. You made her cry. You hurt Elsa's nanny. You are ...... my enemies!"

Erza had never seen Jin look so grim. But she is not afraid of him. Rather, he reassures her. If she was protected by this man, she would not be afraid of anything. That's what I thought.

"I'll save your life. Go home and tell your friends. If you touch any more of my people, that will be the day the Unification Party will be destroyed.

"You're talking nonsense. Do you think you can take on our Unification Party (Unifiler) by yourself?

Even at this late stage, Purcell is still bluffing.

To Purcell, Jin hugged Erza's shoulder,

"Just me?　I'm not alone.　I have friends I can trust and relatives to protect."

He then looks at Reiko, Dahlia, and Kanna,

"I have children who can count on me."

He then looked at Reiko, Dahlia, and Kanna and said, "I have children who can depend on me. With these words, Dahlia and Kanna stepped forward. When Purcell saw the two, who were about the same size as Erza, he said to her

"Oh, you're a magecraftsman, aren't you? Do you think you can defeat my SS with such a slender golem?"

He said to the black golems on either side of him,

"Fight them off!"

Purcell orders them to fight them off. Jin is short,

"You can go all out!"

That's all he said. With that, the two realize what is happening, and in an instant, they take the black golem's back and shower it with 10 million volts of electricity.

Not in paralysis mode, which does no permanent damage to the human body, but with the power of lightning magic. The outer shell of the Golem was partially melted by the force of the blast, and the electric current that surged through the hole created easily penetrated and destroyed the control core of the Golem inside.

The two black golems collapsed almost simultaneously, their metal bodies making a high-pitched noise as they hit the stone floor.

"Hi-hii-hii-hi!"

Purcell was stunned to see this. But Jin followed up further.

"The golem's gone, but what about the human?　Dahlia.

"Yes, let's give it a try."

Hi-hi!　Hyah!

Dahlia's mere approach knocked Purcell unconscious. He was blowing bubbles and his pants were getting wet. He seems to have become incontinent.

Jin sees this and lets out a sigh, looking at Erza next to him,

"How are you feeling?　Do you feel a little better?

He then looked at Erza next to him and said, "Do you feel better? Erza smiled a little and nodded her head,

She smiled a little and nodded her head. Thanks."

She replied.

Jin looked at the incontinent Purcell and gave him some instructions as if he had no choice.

"Oh, that's disgusting! Dalia, drag him outside so he doesn't touch his leaky clothes.

"Yes, chief."

With that, Dalia grabbed Purcell by the collar and dragged him out of the fort. Jin and Elsa are out first. Jin and Elsa had gone ahead of them, not wanting to walk down the urine-dripping hallway.

The ball of light that Jin had lit was still floating outside the fort.

Some of the black-masked men I had grouped together were moaning. They are about to wake up.

Jin took out the Magi Crystal from his pocket and approached the unconscious Purcell. And then..,

"<>"

and copied the information about the Unified Party (Unifiler). If you analyze this, you will be able to learn a lot about the Unifiler.

"Hey, wake up. Wake up!"

Jin called out several times to Purcell, who was rolled at his feet, and finally seemed to notice him.

His robe was frayed and his cloak was torn in some places because he had been hit here and there when he was dragged.

"You finally noticed..."

"Huh!"

Purcell shrugs as he notices Jin looking down at him.

"You know, it's guys like you who are the foxes that outfox the tigers!"

Jin looks at Reiko, who is standing by his side. Reiko seemed to sense it,

"Father, Sky 71 overhead, 75, any time you want," was all he said.

Jin replied.

Jin turned to Purcell and the black-clad men who had awakened,

"Listen, back off this foolish ambition to unite the continent. This is a warning.

This will not happen again. The men listened in silence.

Next, Jin said..,

Reiko.

Reiko. Reiko then sent an instruction to the air force above via manacam.

Immediately after that, pillars of light poured down. There were ten of them. They were, as we all know, <> beams of light.

Two of the on-board lasers were irradiated at their maximum output. The energy of the lasers activated the free magic element (ether) in the atmosphere, making visible light trails that would normally be invisible.

The granite that makes up the fortress was instantly vaporized when exposed to the ten lasers. Because the lasers were emitted from a flying object, the irradiation points moved even within a time period of about one second.

As a result, more than 70% of the fortress was instantly vaporized.

"Hey, hey, hey, ......"

Purcell and the other men in black masks who had woken up all sat up.

"Look, this is the last time. << Stay away from us.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

This time they all reply in unison.

Jin takes one look at their pathetic appearance,

"Erza, is this okay?　I could have killed them all, but ...... not so much.

He said to Erza, who was staring at him.

Erza nodded her head.

"Nah. This is fine."

Jin saw this and said,

"Okay, come on, let's go.

He patted Erza on the shoulder and started walking slowly. The moon was shining in the sky.
