The moon was full tonight.
The big, round moon hanging high in the sky reminded Fang Li of that night in Misaki Town when it had turned into a Demonic City.
"It feels like my body is heating up..."
This wasn't just an illusion.
At this moment, Fang Li's body was actually getting warmer and warmer, and it was as if power was surging from every corner of his being. Even his mind was sharper than ever.
*Thump, Thump...*
It was the sound of a heartbeat.
The sound came from inside Fang Li's body.
With this rhythmic pulsing, Fang Li could feel his mind and spirit becoming more and more excited. It was almost like...
"Like a vampire thriving in the night..."
This wasn't the first time that Fang Li felt like this.
Just as he had said, he now felt like a vampire, one that came alive at night. Even though he didn't drink blood and his race was still human, as soon as night fell, he would feel an inexplicable surge of energy. His body became strong, his stamina seemed inexhaustible, and he had a strange urge to fight someone.
The cause of this phenomenon was, of course, the power within his body.
The power he had inherited from the True Ancestor Princess.
This power that Fang Li couldn't control lay dormant within him, silently protecting him. But every night, it would wake up and become active.
Fang Li wasn't sure if he truly had the infinite endurance he felt in this state.
But thanks to the activity of this power, his mind and energy would be unusually heightened at night, and this was an undeniable fact.
In this state, Fang Li believed that if he were to engage in combat, he would be able to unleash even greater power than during the day.
That's why he often referred to himself as a "vampire who thrives at night". The closer it got to nighttime, the better his condition became.
"I think I'm beginning to understand why Arcueid has no concept of 'death' at this time of day."
After all, Fang Li was experiencing the same thing right now.
In this heightened state, Fang Li's senses also became incredibly sharp.
Thus, Fang Li lifted his head and looked forward.
*Whoosh!*
A cold sea breeze blew across the open land, causing the wind turbines scattered across the island to spin forcefully, emitting a loud whistling sound.
Yet, despite the strong winds sweeping across the open space island, a faint layer of fog hung around its perimeter, undisturbed by the breeze.
With his keen senses, Fang Li noticed something.
There was a subtle yet distinct power pulsating within the surrounding fog.
That feeling was similar to the dispersing mist released by Hakugei.
"So, could there be Demon Beasts inside too?"
With his excited mind urging him on, a fearless smile spread across Fang Li's face. He lifted his foot and stepped into the mist.
His figure instantly disappeared within the fog.
...
Clear footsteps echoed through the dense mist.
As Fang Li walked deeper into the fog, he kept his eyes closed, as if he didn't need to see where he was going.
Then, at a certain point, Fang Li suddenly stopped and opened his eyes.
The view in front of Fang Li gradually became clearer without him even noticing it.
And then Fang Li saw it.
In the middle of the open space, surrounded by windmills, was a person.
It was a young girl.
She was clad in silver-white armor, wielding a heavy steel sword, her silver hair tied in a ponytail, and her blue eyes staring straight ahead.
Fang Li knew this girl.
"Jeanne d'Arc..."
Indeed, it was Jeanne, the Witch who once served as one of the Daio members of the I-U and wielded the ultra-ability of Silver Ice.
"You've come?"
Jeanne's gaze remained fixed on Fang Li's body as she spoke.
"We've been waiting for you for a long time, Gun Magician."
In this sentence, the key word that caught everyone's attention was unmistakable.
*"We?"
Fang Li raised his eyes and scanned his surroundings.
In the thick fog around him, there were silhouettes - figures hidden in the fog.
Whether it was their appearance or their clothing, these people were all extraordinary.
Even more unusual was the aura that surrounded each of them.
It was an aura that triggered a sense of danger, something highly alarming and dangerous.
Undoubtedly, each of these individuals was an extraordinary superhuman.
And they were all gathered in the open space surrounding Jeanne, just like Fang Li.
Seeing this, Fang Li couldn't help but remember his past experience at I-U.
Back then, when he met Sherlock, Fang Li had been surrounded by a group of unusual superhumans and felt like prey surrounded by wild beasts. Each of the I-U's superhumans had encircled him, just like he was now.
The people gathered here were no less dangerous than those superhumans back then.
In fact, some of the individuals here were the same ones who had encircled Fang Li at I-U.
"It's been a while, Gun Magician," A voice came from a young girl.
The speaker was a golden-haired girl with twin ponytails, dressed in gothic loli attire with a parasol in hand, exuding an ominous aura.
*"Bzzz…"*
A few sparks of electricity crackled around the girl's body, making her aura even more dangerous.
The girl glared at Fang Li with pure hostility and spoke.
"Just seeing you brings back the humiliation I suffered at I-U. I want nothing more than to drain all your blood."
This young girl was the vampire who had once attacked Fang Li at I-U, using lightning-based superpowers to launch lightning balls at him. However, Fang Li had sliced through her attack with a single stroke, nearly killing her.
Back at I-U, this girl had been called:
—"The Spark Witch."
Her name was Hilda.
Not far from Hilda stood a nun and another Witch, glaring at each other.
The nun was clad in religious garb, with a voluptuous figure and a large cross-shaped greatsword on her back.
The Witch wore a long robe, and a black pointed hat, and had a large crow perched on her shoulder. She looked more like a Miko than a witch.
In addition to them, there was a little girl, even smaller than Aria, with fox-like upright ears, dressed in a blue kimono inscribed with Sanskrit characters. She resembled a fox person.
Beside her stood two other individuals.
One was a beautiful girl with a dreamlike appearance, carrying a scythe.
The other was a boy, wearing the uniform of Butei High, with a pained expression.
The girl's name was Tohyama Kana.
As for the boy...
"Kinji?"
Fang Li was finally surprised.
His remark was only met with a wry smile from Tohyama Kinji.
