Misaki City, the commercial district.
In contrast to the tranquility of the residential area, the streets here resounded with the cacophony of urban life.
Vehicles rushed along the roads.
Pedestrian crowds weaved their way through the streets.
Amid the honking car horns and bustling chatter, people strolled with their companions, creating a lively urban landscape.
Fang Li, having crossed over from the residential district through Misaki Bridge, also blended into the crowd, moving aimlessly.
However, Fang Li kept his head slightly lowered, concealing his eyes behind the bangs that dangled over his forehead.
Beneath these bangs, their ice-blue Mystic Eyes glittered continuously.
Hidden behind their back was a sharp dagger.
Fang Li meandered through the crowd until someone without any sense of presence, with dull eyes and consciousness already fading, passed by. Then, Fang Li acted with sudden decisiveness.
This motion went unnoticed by anyone.
The reason was simple: the action was executed too swiftly.
As the individual, whose existence was on the verge of vanishing, passed by Fang Li, a bright arc of light flashed, slicing through their body.
The person immediately halted, their entire body bursting into blue flames, turning into ashes and dispersing.
Yet, no one paid any attention to this scene.
The people around continued to move about as if nothing had occurred.
Fang Li raised their gaze and surveyed their surroundings.
“So many Torches…”
Upon arriving in the bustling commercial district, Fang Li realized that the number of Torches he had seen earlier was just a drop in the ocean.
The crowds here were a mix of regular people and Torches. Almost one out of every ten individuals was a Torch, and their numbers were staggering.
However, the fires of existence within these Torches burned fiercely. Their consciousness remained intact, and they conversed and laughed with their friends, blending in seamlessly.
Observing this, Fang Li sighed.
“It should be about time.”
With these words, Fang Li turned and began to retrace their steps.
His destination: the bank of the Mana River.
…
Here, there was not a soul in sight.
The river flowed, reflecting the sunlight from the sky, causing the waters to glisten.
Fang Li arrived at the riverbank, gazing at the river before him.
His ice-blue Mystic Eyes had disappeared.
The sharp dagger had been sheathed.
As he beheld this beautiful riverbank, Fang Li couldn’t help but smile slightly and speak aloud. “Is this location too extravagant for my first battle in this world?”
With the utterance of these words, the world began to change.
“Bang—!”
It was the sound of ignited flames.
At that very moment, a surge of flames suddenly erupted around him, solidifying into walls that enveloped the entire riverbank.
Within the encompassing area, the ground suddenly displayed a geometric matrix, similar to a magical array, extending directly to the location of the scorching barrier.
Immediately, the color of the space changed.
It turned into a glaring crimson.
In this crimson-hued space, all things suddenly came to a standstill and the flowing river was brought to a halt.
Playful fish were stilled. The howling breeze was silenced.
Even the birds that had been soaring through the sky froze in place, as though trapped in the very fabric of this Crimson Realm, immobile in this red-tinged space.
In the blink of an eye, within this space, there was only one person capable of movement.
That person was Fang Li.
“So, this is Fuuzetsu/Seal?”
—Fuuzetsu/Seal.
It was a type of Unrestricted Spell.
An Unrestricted Spell referred to a form of magic that utilized the Power of Existence to bring about various miraculous phenomena. Fuuzetsu/Seal was one such magic.
Much like a barrier, it could isolate two different spaces, completely severing the causality between them. This would place the interior space in a state of stasis, making it impossible for those in outer space to observe what was transpiring within the Fuuzetsu/Seal, which was an Unrestricted Spell.
Typically, this type of Unrestricted Spell was used for two main purposes.
One was used by Denizens to conceal their presence while consuming the Power of Existence.
The other was employed as a battlefield.
“Bang—!”
Yet another fiery sound erupted.
However, this time, it wasn’t the sound of Fuuzetsu/Seal being activated, but the noise of flames suddenly kindled around Fang Li’s form.
Fang Li’s expression remained unchanged as they calmly surveyed their surroundings.
Flames that had initially appeared as mere bursts of fire now coalesced into physical forms, transforming into Dolls one after another.
These Dolls wore various outfits, some appearing quite antiquated while others were brand new, lifelike entities.
“Click… Click… Click…”
These Dolls, their joints making crisp noises as they moved, began to approach Fang Li, encircling them.
Observing these Dolls, Fang Li couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
“Rinne?”
—’Rinne.’
Rinne wasn’t a Crimson Realm Denizen but rather an item created by Crimson Realm Denizens using the Power of Existence available in this world. They were a type of entity that couldn’t maintain their form without a power supply from their Master and would die when deprived of power.
As such, Crimson Realm Denizens typically used the Rinnas they created as tools to collect Power of Existence, dispersing them to gather this resource.
Naturally, these entities were mere cannon fodder, their power far inferior to that of the Crimson Realm Denizens. In terms of strength, they were roughly equivalent to mid-sized Aragami. For Fang Li, they posed no threat.
This realization brought a smile to Fang Li’s face.
“So that’s how it is. Due to a lack of information, they sent scouts first. Even if they can’t eliminate the enemy, they can still use them to gauge the opponent’s strength, right?”
In this way, it only served to confirm one thing.
The Denizens hiding in Misaki City were rather cautious and adept at employing tactics.
“If my memory serves me correctly, then indeed, it should be that person.”
Fang Li seemed oblivious to the danger lingering in the air as they continued to express their thoughts.
This arrogant attitude that seemed to disregard everything around them appeared to enrage the surrounding Rinne.
“Click… Click… Click…”
With a crisp sound, the Dolls suddenly swung their limbs, launching themselves like ferocious beasts from all directions, charging forward.
As they witnessed the Dolls rushing toward them, Fang Li narrowed their eyes, and their hand slowly reached behind them.
However, the next moment, Fang Li’s movements came to a halt.
“This is…”
Fang Li looked with surprise in one direction.
At that moment, Fang Li faintly felt something.
An intensely scorching aura was approaching extremely rapidly.
Such an intense aura triggered a realization in Fang Li’s mind.
“Could it be her?”
No sooner had Fang Li voiced this thought than he saw a figure appeared in mid-air.
