Spell Return: The Wheel of Time

Chapter 252 Different Timelines
There was not even a moment of mourning for Yuta Otoko's departure. The strongest first-level magician - Atsushi Kusakabe - was about to appear.

……

The person he saw when he opened his eyes was so familiar that he was stunned for several seconds. Zenyuan Maki... But it took him a moment to recognize her from the outline of her facial features.

Because the Maki in front of him was completely different from the heroic, venomous, and arrogant person she once was to her friends. This Maki’s hair had become medium-short, and he immediately noticed that his figure was also wary, as if he was preying on someone. The appearance of a dangerous beast that disturbs you.

Moreover...her face, arms and other exposed body surfaces all had hideous scars, like skin that could never be repaired after being burned by fire.

"Maki..."

Shenyuan's sudden statement made the other party stunned for a moment, but the former only had one thing in mind at this time, and that was that seeing this strange Maki meant one thing: he had indeed successfully traveled to another time and space, but this time and space It's still not the goal he's pursuing.

It is also very simple to come to this conclusion. Although Shenyuan Yi has changed a lot compared to the distant past, the outline of his facial features is still the same and has not undergone earth-shaking changes with the passage of time.

But it's impossible for Maki not to recognize him, so... this way of traveling through time and space can only lead to a certain time and space at random. There is also another very important thing.

If you don't happen to arrive at this time and space randomly, it means that Shenyuan Yi's time and space travel can only change in different worlds called 'spells'. The differences, dimensions, etc. are so complex that they are beyond human cognition. Shenyuan Yiyi couldn't completely figure it out for a while.

But there is still good news, that is, it seems that as he traveled to another time and space, the wish to accept the offerings from the Heian Era has disappeared. They do not seem to be able to travel through the barriers of time and space with the source of the gods.

At this critical moment, a strange magician suddenly appeared in a strange way. How could she not be surprised? Not to mention her deep intuition telling her that the person in front of her was extremely dangerous, just like when she faced people like Su Nuo and Wu Tiao.

But she didn't know how this magician with the same pair of strange eyes appeared. Maki searched through her memories but couldn't find the other person's existence, but the man called out her name again.

Then comes the most important question.

In other words, he seems to have escaped the negative influence brought by the 'gods'. Even if he loses those powers, the realization he gained from reaching that height has not disappeared. Given time, it is not impossible to approach that realm with his own power.

But now this exact same situation is much more serious. Although the use of spells is still possible, higher-level applications such as field expansion will be ineffective for a while.

At that time, he discovered that he was not so easy to control the birth spells, and the use of spell power was also a bit difficult. However, that level of abnormality did not have much impact on him at the time, and he quickly recovered completely. Shenyuanyi only regarded this as a short-term negative effect of time travel, just like motion sickness.

It would be fine in normal times, but what time is it now? It was when they were planning to ambush Su Nuo, when Yi Gu was using his domain to close Su Nuo, and when he was preparing to give Su Nuo a fatal blow at the right time.

Generally speaking, Shenyuanyi is now in a state similar to 'weakness', but judging from all the current methods, there is still no problem in killing ordinary special-level people indiscriminately.

It was an unfolding, enclosed realm.

Maki was caught in a dilemma. This guy who suddenly appeared on the battlefield without any warning made her scalp numb. You must know that Maki, who has a complete sky and a curse, completely beats countless magicians in terms of perception.

In addition, Shenyuan Yi also discovered some anomalies about himself. The magic object that stored items was still there, and the magic tools such as Tian Yu Yu Zhan inside were also safe and sound. The array disk of [One Place in the World] had consumed all its power. But the structure was not damaged.

But now is not the time to explore this. After seeing Maki for the first time, he also saw Kusakabe Atsushi and Ino Takuma standing next to her. There was also a weird guy not far away on the other side. There seemed to be With the smell of Japanese knotweed, he then turned his attention to the most conspicuous thing on the field at the moment: a perfect black sphere that was not particularly huge.

And what’s going on with Maki’s appearance? Where are Gojo-sensei, Otoko... and others? Who are they fighting now?

"Where is this? What happened?"

……

There is nothing wrong with them. The problem is with Shenyuan Yi himself. To be precise, he has problems at the level of spells. This feeling has appeared before, at the beginning of the peaceful era.

Shen Yuanyi looked around and saw that this place was clearly once a prosperous and modern urban area. However, the scene of destruction everywhere also told him that this was definitely not a scene that could be caused by one or two battles, unless it was a battle of the same intensity as the Yamata no Orochi or the decisive battle.

In an instant, Zhenxi thought about many possibilities: Su Nuo's helpers, unknown reinforcements invited from the rear, or a curse master who took advantage of the chaos and had an unknown purpose?

You must know that after this series of events, Shinjuku has become a demonic realm and an absolutely forbidden place. Ordinary magicians will never come to this dead place. After all, it is said to be a dead place. Is it possible that they come to travel?

There are only two possibilities in terms of stance, but now there is no time for Maki to figure out which side the other party is on, so she can only make a quick decision. "The lower part of the sun, the bulging phase!"

"Crack!"

Maki's shouts and the obvious cracking sounds were almost in tandem, and then she maintained the crouching starting position and was launched from the place like a cannonball. Before the explosions in the air and the ground spread, Maki had already rushed to that area very quickly.

As soon as Shenyuan saw Maki stepping on the water-like ground and air, and then before the domain was completely broken, she passed through the barrier whose structure was already unstable and on the verge of being broken, and then she grabbed something and pierced it hard. A figure emerged.

And Shenyuan Yi couldn't look at it because someone interrupted his gaze. It was the weird guy a little distance away from here. Thinking of Maki's words just now, it should be called "Swelling"...

"Curse? Get away."

I couldn't see what was going on. I was called to hold this guy who appeared out of nowhere to prevent him from doing anything. He suddenly flew back at a faster speed and smashed through the broken building. .

Shenyuanyi didn't realize what this guy was at the first time, but after looking twice, he couldn't tell what he was. It was clearly the existence of those cursed objects that took away the human body and reborn the body.

Wan, Su Nuo... this is the case for them. Although I don't know why Maki and the others stand with this kind of existence, Shenyuan never has a good impression of such a guy. They didn't kill him on the spot just because they didn't know yet. What is the situation in this time and space?

"Who are you?"

Shenyuan squinted his eyes and looked at a familiar figure standing up from the ruins over there. It was none other than Yu Ren, the container of Su Nuo. It looked like he had just experienced a fight.

Isn’t the target of the battle Su Nuo? Or is it that Su Nuo left Huzhang's body and found another body?
"Where's Gojo Satoru?"

Kangenichi ignored Kizuna's vigilant questions and just tried to find out where Gojo's teacher was. Then, seeing that Kizune was still vigilant, he turned his attention to Kusakabe and Ino who were closer.

Kusakabe's scalp was numb at this time. The opponent had just knocked the bulging form away with a blow. He didn't even notice the slightest trace. The caution and intuition that he had lived safely since he became a magician were telling him at this moment that this weird person in front of him was The guy is dangerous!
But he, who was also good at observing words and expressions, had a feeling for some reason that this guy didn't seem to have much hostility towards them, and it seemed that Zhang Xiang was injured because he thought it was a curse.

"Maybe... this guy is the helper called by Gojo, just like those guys."

Kusakabe suddenly had such an idea. Just when he was about to test the other party's intentions, he saw the other party set his sights on the most important place on the battlefield at this time.

"Su Nuo..."

With four arms and four eyes, and a ghost-like appearance, there is no doubt that the being who was pierced by Maki's body with a magic tool in a sneak attack and killed the master of the domain with a spell was none other than Su Nuo who revealed his true form.

And the person who was trapped in Nuo in the expanded field before was also an acquaintance - Yigu Youtai. At this moment, Shenyuanyi had noticed something.

This time and space and the current time period should correspond to the stage after the guy Kensuo made his move. However, due to the difference in time and space, the development of the situation has changed greatly.

Maki's abnormality and Gojo-sensei's disappearance are all because of this, and where is Megumi? Thinking of Tsumiki who was possessed by Wan and Fushiguro Megumi who was also missing now, Kangen suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Although the reason in his heart told him that this was another time and space, Jinmeiji had been saved by himself, and the troubles such as Su Nuo and Kensuo had been solved. This was just a completely unfamiliar time and space without him. He didn't see that they were all completely Don’t you know yourself?
But people are like this, especially Shenyuanyi has been separated from the influence of the 'gods'. When seeing these familiar and living people, I think that they may have different endings in this infinite possibility of time and space. ...What about an ordinary person who was involved in a disaster in the magic world?
Shenyuan took a deep breath. Maki's successful but failed attack had been repulsed by Su Nuo. Yigu was seriously injured. For the time being, there were only the barely fighting strength of Huzhang, Kusakabe and Maki on the field.

Raise your hand, the wheel of time is reversed.

Yigu's sudden disappearance of all injuries alarmed everyone, whose atmosphere was already somewhat frozen by the presence of Shenyuan Yi. However, this move at least allowed Yigu to temporarily put him in the same camp.

"you……"

Before Su Nuo could say a word, his heart started to beat wildly. Before he could react in this urgent sense of death crisis, his limbs, or perhaps it should be said that six limbs, suddenly felt pain, and then they were separated. his body.

Holding Tian Yu Yu Zhan in hand, Shenyuan glanced at everyone present with a nonchalant look: "So, everyone... who can tell me everything I want to know."
