The moon was full tonight.
The cold moonlight poured down from the sky, but it was completely obscured by the bright lights of the city, completely hiding its presence.
You could say that it was a pitiful sight.
However, in the center of Misaki Town, there was a skyscraper that happened to be bathed in moonlight.
After all, this skyscraper was the tallest building in Misaki Town, and the city lights couldn't reach the rooftop, leaving the rooftop in the same cold and silent atmosphere as the moonlight.
Until a certain moment when the silence was broken.
"Boom!"
With a muffled sound, a figure suddenly shot up from below the skyscraper and landed heavily on the rooftop, causing the air to tremble.
The newcomer was, of course, Roa.
A cold wind swept through the building, causing Roa's thin shirt to flap wildly in the wind. His messy black hair also danced in the wind, and only the moonlight illuminated his face.
"I didn't expect to be forced to this point, even though I planned everything so carefully."
Roa gritted his teeth in regret before he raised his head to look at the full moon in the sky.
"However, acting tonight was indeed the right choice."
Tonight happened to be a full moon.
As a True Ancestor, also known as the "People of the Moon", Arcueid not only had no fixed time of death at night, but her power also increased in such an environment.
On a full moon, this enhancement reached its peak, making the already nearly invincible Arcueid even more unstoppable.
Although not as powerful as a True Ancestor, Dead Apostles were also vampires, and they typically operated at night based on this principle.
Thus, on a full moon, a Dead Apostle's power would also reach its peak, even restoring any incomplete undead nature. Their immortality would be at its greatest, and though they would not be as formidable as Arcueid, who could not die at night no matter what happened to her, they would be nearly impossible to kill.
However, this characteristic was of no use in this situation.
"Those damned eyes don't care about such things..."
Roa's expression remained grim as he thought of this.
Then Roa sneered coldly.
"But this is as far as it goes."
Standing on the edge of the rooftop, Roa looked down at the entirety of Misaki Town, before spreading his arms wide as if to embrace it.
"From now on, this city will be mine, it will become my castle!"
As Roa's words fell, an unprecedented transformation began.
"Buzz-!"
In one corner of Misaki Town's outskirts, a Magecraft array suddenly appeared, it was like a totem etched into the earth, slowly rotating and emitting a blinding light.
"Buzz-! Buzz-! Buzz-! Buzz-! Buzz-!"
Almost simultaneously, similar Magecraft Arrays began to appear in various corners of Misaki Town, each one glowing and rotating, surrounding the entire city.
Immediately after that, at the base of the skyscraper in the city center, an even larger Magecraft Array appeared, rotating and emitting a transparent glow. This array joined the other arrays surrounding the town, sending beams of light into the sky.
Then, high above Misaki Town, an intricate and massive Magecraft Array suddenly appeared and rapidly expanded. In an instant, it encircled the entire town, shrouding the sky above Misaki Town.
With this, Misaki Town was completely transformed into a demonic fortress.
...
In one of the rooms of the Tohno household, Tohno Akiha, who was asleep in bed, suddenly opened her eyes. She jumped out of bed and looked out the window.
"That's...!"
As rays of light shot up from every corner of Misaki Town and a massive array of magic slowly rotated in the sky, Tohno Akiha was shocked.
Even though she didn't know exactly what was happening, Tohno Akiha understood the gravity of the situation.
"It seems that something big is about to happen.
...
Ciel, dressed in her priestly robes, stood by a streetlamp on the side of an alley in Misaki Town, facing the wind.
As she gazed at the huge array of magical artifacts spinning in the sky, Ciel's expression grew increasingly serious.
As an Executor of the Burial Agency, Ciel possessed a profound knowledge of Magecraft.
Unlike Tohno Akiha, Ciel could almost immediately deduce the function of the Magecraft Array just by observing its structure.
It was this understanding that made her expression so serious and grave.
In fact, her face also showed signs of distress.
"You dare do something like this? Are you not afraid that the Church and the Association will completely obliterate you?"
"Serpent..."
Muttering in a low voice, Ciel pressed her foot on the street lamp and disappeared in a flash, and it looked as if she had teleported.
...
"Drip..."
In the devastated construction site, a drop of blood slipped from Fang Li's Moonlight Dagger, making a faint but clear sound.
In front of him, the massive wild beast form of Nrvnqsr, a high-ranking Dead Apostle, disintegrated and gradually turned into a pile of ashes on the ground.
Fang Li watched this scene as if paying silent tribute to one of the oldest and most powerful Dead Apostles until Nrvnqsr had completely disintegrated. Only then did he turn around and raise his head to the sky.
As he stared at the huge array of magic above him, Fang Li's icy blue Mystic Eyes shimmered with light.
"How brazen..."
"Despicable trickster..."
With these words, Fang Li's figure disappeared into the darkness like a gust of wind.
...
On the rooftop of the skyscraper, Roa watched Misaki Town being gradually surrounded by the Magecraft Arrays, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"With this, the Misaki Town will be transformed into a demonic lair."
Just as Roa finished speaking, an overwhelming and terrifying pressure suddenly filled the space, sweeping across the entire roof of the skyscraper.
Roa's breath caught in his throat for a moment, but he quickly recovered. Not only did he not panic, but his expression became even more delighted.
Then Roa turned and looked behind him.
There, a figure had appeared and was getting closer to Roa with every step.
The terrifying pressure was emanating from that person's body, and a pair of crimson eyes radiated with an unprecedented ferocity.
As he watched the White Princess draw closer, her presence growing more oppressive, Roa burst into laughter.
"I knew it! I knew it! The moment I started acting, you would be the first to arrive!"
"Arcueid Brunestud!"
Roa's laughter did nothing to waver Arcueid's expression in the slightest.
Her eyes merely turned golden, radiating an unnerving and terrifying aura.
