Chapter 735: Chapter 278: Chaos Unfolds (Part 3)

The eyes of the Golden Snake widened as well upon hearing the name from Emerald’s lips.

For no other reason than she knew exactly who this name referred to.

This was someone who was never supposed to be part of this operation, someone who by right should not exist in the Magic Kingdom, nor even be here.

But the Golden Snake knew, if it was that person...

Buzz.

The sudden sound resonating in this already silent isolated space was so clear.

It was like the peculiar noise of something being suddenly opened; even if it was just a moment, it was enough to leave a deep impression.

Then came the sound of footsteps.

Before Emerald was a space gate that opened like a doorway.

On the other side of the gate were two Magical Girls.

One was kneeling on one knee at the moment, with one hand supporting the space gate, slowly injecting her Magic Power into this rift, evidently the one who opened this gate. But her attention was not on the gate, but on the person in front of her.

—"Sorry to keep you waiting, White Wolf, we’ve arrived." She said to the Magical Girl in front of her.

"Mm, you’ve worked hard, Yi Ou."

The one she called "White Wolf," a petite girl in a white dress with soft purple hair, gave her a sweet smile and gracefully walked out of the space gate.

Off to the side, the Golden Snake stared in amazement at the figure stepping out from the gate.

She had imagined countless times what her leader intended for this operation, even wondering if she had become a pawn discarded along the way. But never did she expect that when she was on the verge of losing, facing death, the other would actually appear here.

"Lea... der?"

"You’ve worked hard, Golden Snake."

The purple-haired girl walked past the Golden Snake, raising a hand to gently stroke her forehead: "You’ve worked hard enough, and I’m very pleased with you."

With just one sentence, the last bit of defiance the Golden Snake held onto vanished.

She collapsed onto the ground, no longer caring about her image, gasping for air, and then tears involuntarily overflowed from her eyes.

"Sob... I thought I was done for..."

"There, there, I won’t let you die. Didn’t I say, after joining Claw Mark, you’re part of my family."

Purple Diamond stroked Golden Snake’s head like she was petting a large animal: "But Golden Snake, sometimes you like to act spoiled. If I told you from the start that I’d come, maybe you wouldn’t have pushed your potential so much. Now, instead, you’ve overachieved, becoming a major contributor to our plan."

"Sob sob sob..." Golden Snake had no time to respond, just crying her heart out.

"Yi Ou."

"I’m here, White Wolf."

"Take Golden Snake back; she’s in a terrible state now and needs substantial magic replenishment. You know where to take her."

"I do, please don’t worry."

The Magical Girl from Claw Mark who opened the space gate just slightly moved her hand, causing the space gate beside her to move as well, then it arrived behind Golden Snake:

"Well, please forgive my impudence, Golden Snake."

She grabbed the sobbing Golden Snake and pulled her into the space gate, even giving her a couple of nudges as though afraid she’d fall out.

After doing all this, she looked at White Wolf again: "Well, I won’t disturb your reunion. Wishing you martial success, White Wolf."

"Remember to come back and get me later." White Wolf winked at her.

"Of course, leaving a lady behind is a disgrace to subordinates." Yi Ou saluted again, and then the space gate closed, taking Golden Snake with it.

From start to finish, Emerald did not have the slightest intention of intervening.

Until the space only had the two of them left, White Wolf then seemed to suddenly notice the other presence here, covering her mouth and looking at Emerald:

"Sorry, got carried away with greetings, what can I do for you? My dear Miss Lin?"

Emerald, after looking at the other for a long while, slowly curled up her lips:

"You still have that knack for being infuriating, Feideli."

...

...

The examination hall was in chaos due to the sudden appearance of a Barrier, while unexpected events were occurring in the Jade Book Gallery. Meanwhile, in Luennolay, an unexpected incident was happening in a place that was supposed to be off everyone’s radar.

The originally hidden and tranquil Queen’s Palace was now in ruins.

Because the Queen was at the examination hall, a considerable number of Royal Court Guards followed to accompany her, leaving fewer guards than usual. At this moment, most of these once-proud Royal Court Guards were unconscious, lying injured on the ground.

A man in a black robe and wearing a mask—Feng was pacing forward.

Not far in front of him was the Small Realm Gate that only existed within the Queen’s Palace, leading to the "Garden."

After the Garden Defense Battle twenty years ago, Luennolay ceased to set up independent Realm Gates, leaving only this one existing within the secret palace, unknown to anyone.

Yes, this place should not be known to anyone.

But for some reason, while the entirety of Luennolay was on lockdown, bracing for assessment, this man accurately found this single place where defenses were ironically sparse.

Then, effortlessly and instantly, he defeated all the Royal Court Guards.

"Indeed, after twenty years of separation..."

Looking at the Small Realm Gate before him, Feng uttered a sentiment that no one responded to, and then he continued to step forward.
