Chapter 24 - 20
This is the moment Siesta hid Ziel inside an empty house, and She go after Princess Elise immediately. Ziel was left alone in the house.
"I finally have time alone." He sat down and focused on the seal of his power that began to stabilize himself.
Because his magic circle and aura seal clashed while stabilizing themselves. Ziel was in a state of pain. The burning sensation was that he had never even felt it in his life before. He gradually stabilized his seal by making his magic circle and aura seal balance. If the two are calm and do not clash again, the seal can finally be said to be stable.
"Haaah.... This was difficult because the position of the magic circle and aura seal were exactly the same in all parts of my body. So if they stack up they will clash again." Ziel sighed heavily.
But the reality isn't as easy as Ziel imagined. Since his magic circle and aura seal were constantly clashing with each other, he had to look for another way. From inside the house, Ziel could still hear voices from outside and know what's going on there.
A person's senses will become even more sensitive when he increases the amount of aura seal or magic circle. And Ziel who has 9 of them is both very sensitive to the state of his surrounding.
He heard the sound of explosions and beasts, accompanied by the screams of the people. He could see the Princess trio helping the people injured. But that's none of Ziel's business at the moment. Right now he had to focus on balancing between the magic circle and his aura seal. Suddenly the unexpected change happened.
"Urghhh...." Ziel groaned in overwhelming pain.
The magic circle and aura seal that he was about to balance suddenly made a violent clash. 9 dots on Ziel's body hurt tremendously. And Ziel lost consciousness.

When Ziel woke up, he felt something was different about him. He didn't know how long he has been unconscious. After he examined his entire body he felt nothing different. But when he opened the magic circle and his aura seal, he was extremely shocked.
The magic circle and aura seal belonging to Ziel became one into a new form. Ziel's magic circle is an ancient magic circle and his aura seal is two coiling dragons patterned.
The combination of the two looks like 2 dragons circling the magic circle in the middle. In other words, Ziel couldn't call it a magic circle or aura seal anymore but a magic seal.
"My magic circle and seal aura became one and mutated. It could be said with this the seal has managed to stabilize completely." Ziel nodded in satisfaction with it.
Suddenly he felt a fireball hovering over him, but he ignored it. Ziel had to do something else after the seal stabilized.
"The next step is to unseal." Ziel muttered then closed his eyes.
9 magic seals appeared on his body. 2 on his knee, 2 on his wrist, 2 on his shoulder, 1 on his nape, 1 on his chest, and the last 1 on his forehead. And in the air, there is also a magic seal that floats around him appeared the same as the magic seal on his body. Then came a small chain from the middle of the magic seal that was floating in the air and entered into the magic seal in Ziel's body. A total of 9 chains binding to 9 magic seals belonging to Ziel.
Ziel suddenly frowned. And the fireball fell right on him.
"Haaaah..." Ziel just sighed at it.
Booooooooooooooommmmmmmm

Back in time, everyone including the Princess Aishia group and Erigos army felt pressure from people inside the ruins of the house. Suddenly the debris began to lift. And someone came out of the ruins. That person was none other than Ziel. His mask broke near his eyes. So a quarter of his face could be seen. And there are no burn scars like before.
And what visible at the moment were crimson-colored eyes that exerted tremendous pressure. Everyone just stood looking at him except for one person.
"Ziel.." Princess Aishia mentioned his name softly while walking slowly towards him. And Ziel also walked towards her. Right after they were very close.
"Ziel, what are you...." Princess Aishia was about to ask Ziel about his condition, but she who thought Ziel would stop, instead of walk past her without looking back at all. It's like Princess Aishia was never there.
Princess Aishia who saw it fell to her knees with empty eyes. The tears flowed from her eyes. She felt a tremendous pain in her chest. Suddenly there was a shout of the man running towards Ziel.
"Bastard!! What did you do to Princess Aishia!!" Theodore roared towards Ziel while slashing the sword at him.
"Noisy." Ziel said softly without looking at Theodore.
An invisible force pushed Theodore until it bounced tens of meters and stopped hitting one of the houses. Everyone who saw him was shocked because Theodore who was a senior knight with 4 aura seals just bounced off without being able to do anything.
As the Siel passed Princess Freya and others who had previously been restrained. Princess Elise and Siesta look terrified. Aryana stood in front of them as a guard while Princess Freya looked directly towards Ziel's eyes, and she trembled. Not because of fear but another feeling.
After the Ziel passed them. Ziel looked towards Erigos. He who was seen by Ziel shivered in his spine. He retreated without realizing it.
(What this feeling...)
He was sweating from his forehead. And his body can't move. Like a child stared by a beast.
"I don't like to talk while looking up. So..." Ziel said to Erigos that floated in the air. And then a huge pressure came out of Ziel's body.
"Come down..." After Ziel said that, an incredible pressure hitting Erigos, and he fell to the ground.
"Ugghhh..." Erigos groaned trying to stand up but couldn't move his limbs at all.
"So where should we start?" Ziel looked down at Erigos that were slumped on the ground.
