There is a Monster in the Moon Orchid City

That was the supreme power!

But how could such a divine artifact possibly be in Moonlily City!

If that crown were truly still in Moonlily City, the Violet Family couldn't possibly have declined to their current state!

The Thorn Sorceress looked down at them with a faint smile and said:

"I've said enough to you..."

She spread her arms and smiled contemptuously, mocking:

"Now, come witness the destruction of this ancient city-state with me. I'm sure you're all very eager to see this scene, hehehe—"

Her laughter echoed across the heavens.

Behind her, in the distant Moonlily City, that massive figure roared as it raised its giant axe.

Perhaps in the next moment, half the city would be destroyed by that single axe strike.

Nanako's face turned pale.

But just as that axe was about to fall at that instant.

Suddenly!

A bizarre scene appeared.

A giant hand!

Above Moonlily City, a massive hand formed entirely of starlight suddenly appeared.

Without any fluctuation.

Without any aura.

It just appeared out of thin air above all of Moonlily City.

And in the next moment.

That giant hand, as if pinching a rabbit, reached out with two fingers and grabbed the massive one-eyed giant.

"Holy crap!!" Nanako and the knights were instantly shocked by this sudden scene.

The Thorn Sorceress laughed loudly, facing away from that direction, saying:

"Are you shocked?! Terrified?! This is the power of the abyss! This is the power of demons! This is true greatness!"

Nanako covered her cheeks and shouted: "No, no, that's not it!"

Then, an incredibly terrifying scene appeared.

After that giant hand appeared in the sky, another starlight hand suddenly materialized without warning.

Then under everyone's shocked gaze.

Smack—

Smack—

That starlight giant hand began vigorously spanking the buttocks of the one-eyed giant it held up.

"He's getting spanked! He's getting spanked!" Nanako exclaimed, grabbing her ponytail in shock.

Arnold and the others were all stunned as well.

They had never seen such a bizarre scene before.

This kind of scene wouldn't even appear in dreams!

Above Moonlily City, the massive one-eyed giant was held in that giant hand's grip, struggling desperately, but because it was so tiny in comparison, it couldn't break free from the giant hand's grasp.

It could only futilely twist its bulky body.

While the other giant hand mercilessly continued spanking its bottom.

Smack—

Smack—

The Thorn Sorceress raised her chin, facing away from Moonlily City, looking at Nanako and the others with a faint smile, spreading her arms saying:

"Listen to that rhythmic beat, I can already imagine the scene of that city-state being destroyed in Lord One-Eye's hands! Hahaha!"

Nanako and the others stood there with wide eyes, saying: "No... no, turn around and look! Things aren't what you think they are!"

And the demon guards around all stared with wide eyes, trembling as they said:

"Lady Freya, um, we really think you should turn around and look... something big has happened!"

The Thorn Sorceress suddenly opened her eyes, her lips curling into a sinister smile, saying:

"What's the point? It's just a city being destroyed. After I eliminate you all, I will personally go pay respects to the great Demon Lords and offer them the freshest sacrifices!"

But she did turn her head to look toward Moonlily City.

"..."

"..."

A brief silence.

The smile on her face instantly froze.

"..."

Several seconds later.

Her lips twitched as she turned back, rubbing her temples while saying with a faint smile:

"Hehe, did you secretly cast some illusion on me? Not bad, being able to make me see such an absurd illusion. It seems you're not as weak as I thought!"

Nanako and the others were shocked, saying: "How could you possibly think this is an illusion we cast!"

The Thorn Sorceress gave a cold laugh, holding her ample chest as she gently descended from the dragon.

"Do you know what a high-ranking Demon Lord is?"

"If you were slightly more knowledgeable, you wouldn't create such a crude illusion!"

"A high-ranking Demon Lord is second only to the Demon Master, do you really think a high-ranking Demon Lord would be picked up like a chicken?"

"This is utterly crude and disgusting!" she suddenly snorted coldly, her eyes filled with darkness.

To pull this kind of trick in front of her.

Did they think she was mentally ill?

Because any normal person wouldn't believe such an completely unreasonable scene.

But just at this moment.

That giant hand finally seemed to have had enough of spanking.

It grabbed one of the one-eyed giant's arms, then suddenly spun it in a full 360-degree rotation.

Instantly.

Accompanied by the one-eyed giant's piercing scream, that massive body was directly thrown by the giant hand.

And the direction it was thrown...

Was right here!!

"That demon is flying towards us!" Arnold and the others shouted in terror.

Freya sneered: "Heh, still trying to confuse my judgment? How ridiculous!"

Then under Nanako and the others' terrified gaze, that thrown one-eyed giant came closer and closer...

And seeming to sense the power coming from afar.

The massive bone dragon summoned by the Thorn Sorceress suddenly froze, then turned its head in confusion.

A massive impact sound.

That spinning one-eyed giant instantly had an extremely intimate close encounter with the bone dragon.

"It... it crashed..." Nanako mumbled.

The Thorn Sorceress also jolted, immediately turning around.

And the moment she saw that scene, she froze in place.

Her mind exploded with a huge boom, becoming completely blank.

"This... this..."

She was dumbfounded.

For a moment she couldn't say a single word.

The demon guards around her trembled as they said: "Master, we told you earlier, this isn't an illusion!"

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

She stood there in shock, then instantly panicked, trembling as she said: "Lord Asaas, Lord Asaas, what's going on? How could you... how could you..."

She couldn't believe it!

She absolutely couldn't believe the scene before her eyes.

The massive one-eyed giant tremblingly and weakly reached out a hand, saying:

"Mon... monster..."

The Thorn Sorceress instantly froze, saying: "Mon... monster, what monster?"

The one-eyed giant weakly and tremblingly pointed toward Moonlily City, tears streaming down its face as it said:

"Inside... there's a monster..."

Thorn Sorceress: "!!!!"

His voice was so shaky, the terror in his tone almost palpable.

And right after speaking.

Hiccup—

The one-eyed giant's hands suddenly went limp, tongue hanging out as it fell unconscious.

The Thorn Sorceress instantly went (ΩДΩ).

"Lord Asaas! Lord Asaas!!"

And in the next moment, Nanako and the others instantly widened their eyes, looking toward Moonlily City again.

Because that giant hand showed new changes.

After throwing away that one-eyed giant.

It silently hid behind that huge crack in the sky.

Fingers curved like claws.

Just like when playing hide-and-seek, sneakily hiding behind a door, arms spread, waiting to jump out the moment someone comes in.

"What is it going to do! What is it going to do?!"

Seeing this scene, the Thorn Sorceress trembled in terror.

This wasn't an illusion!

This was really happening!

There really was a being in Moonlily City powerful enough to overwhelm a Demon Lord!

Then, in the next moment.

A terrifying aura suddenly emanated from that crack again.

The moment she sensed that aura.

The Thorn Sorceress instantly widened her eyes, then her whole body shuddered, because she recognized the owner of that aura.

And she finally understood why that starlight giant hand was hiding behind the crack...

It was going to...

Going to...

"Fire Lord, please don't come out!!" the Thorn Sorceress screamed.
