Even if Octavia and Emma weren't being hugged like Yuuma, they weren't treated badly, and they could feel that an invisible force hugged their bodies gently. Still, Octavia and Emma were quite jealous of Yuuma, though.
However, now wasn't the time for this kind of matter and they directly went straight to the legendary prison.
"Haru, what are you going to do?!"
Haru and his group had flown away, and Misaki, who couldn't fly, directly leaped, but she couldn't do anything and when she would fall down, something caught her and put her back to the top of the Keystone Gate so there was nothing that she could do, besides standing there while staring at their back.
Haru's speed was naturally fast, and almost in the blink of an eye, they had arrived at the legendary prison, but to enter this prison, he needed to attack it with a powerful attack, used a special ability, or gained permission from Natsuki.
Obviously, Haru didn't want to destroy the prison so he wouldn't choose option one and it was also impossible to gain permission from Natsuki to enter if he had to bring Yuuma, Emma, and Octavia, so he could only use a special ability to enter.
"Sticker Zipper!"
Suddenly a blue humanoid figure appeared behind Haru, and it punched outside the area of the legendary prison and created a huge zipper that led a path for them to enter the legendary prison.
Looking at the zipper that suddenly appeared, Yuuma, Emma, and Octavia were dumbfounded, wondering how much power that Haru had.
The internal structure of the legendary barrier is special. Prisoners who have been imprisoned here are undoubtedly known as the strongest of kinds, but it was impossible for them to break this prison, showing how strong and mysterious this prison is.
However, as long as someone has enough strength, it is possible to break out or enter the legendary prison from the external part of the prison.
However, if someone really wanted to destroy this legendary prison, then they needed to defeat the Witch of the Void, Natsuki Minamiya.
Well, as long as Haru wanted to, it was simply child play for him to enter or walk out from this legendary prison. Still, he knew that he needed to face Natsuki when he had decided to save Aya Tokoyogi, and knew that there must be a conflict between them, but it was inevitable, and since he had promised Yuuma, then he would do it.
As the zipper was opened, the seal that stopped anyone from entering the legendary prison was opened.
"Let's go."
Haru didn't want to waste his time so he directly entered the legendary prison, and as expected when he entered, he was greeted by Natsuki, who was sleeping in the center of the hall inside the prison.
Her sleeping face was cute, she was like a doll, but at the same time, Haru was wondering why Natsuki loved to keep her loli form when it was possible to appear in her adult form.
Haru loved Natsuki in her adult form, not her loli form!
"I didn't expect to see the legendary Witch of the Void so easily. Thank you Haru, so let me do the next thing."
As Haru was in deep thought, Yuuma walked a few steps toward Natsuki, facing the sleeping Natsuki, Yuuma bowed her head slightly, but then a figure appeared from behind her, a figure of a knight wearing giant dark blue armor.
This was Yuuma's guardian and the one who gave her a monicker of the Blue Witch, Le Bleu.
Yuuma, who had summoned her guardian, obviously had decided to kill Natsuki, so this way, the legendary prison would be completely broken, and her mother would be released.
Unfortunately, although Haru wanted to get Aya Tokoyogi, it didn't mean that he could watch Natsuki being killed!
"I'm really sorry..."
Just when Yuuma ordered the Le Bleu to attack, Haru suddenly appeared in front of her and caught the sword of the Le Bleu with his bare hand.
"Yuuma, even though I'd decided to help you. I'd never said that you could do something to Natsuki-chan."
"What?"
Yuuma was stunned and felt confused.
Yuuma couldn't understand Haru's words.
When a woman had made a contract with the devil, they would be called a devil. After becoming a witch, they naturally had to pay a certain price and as a price of becoming with, Natsuki needed to stay in the legendary prison for a lifetime.
The truth, the legendary prison wasn't a real prison, but it was magic that was created to seal vicious criminals and the one who used this magic was Natsuki, and this magic kept her from staying in this prison for life.
Moreover, this legendary prison was more like a dream in Natsuki. She must constantly sleep in this prison to maintain this legendary prison. In other words, it was impossible for her to get out of this prison.
As for Natsuki, who was often seen every day, it was an illusion that was made by her magic.
With all of that explanation, the only thing the author wanted to say is that Natsuki represented the existence of the legendary prison. As long as you killed her then the legendary prison would naturally be destroyed and Yuuma's mission would be completed.
If only one person needed to become a sacrifice in this mission, Yuuma would be very happy. After all, before she knew Haru's identity as the fourth primogenitor, she thought to use the lives of 100,000 people on the Itogami island as a sacrifice to destroy the legendary prison.
Just for Aya Tokoyogi, Yuuma didn't hesitate to sacrifice the lives of 100,000 people, so how could she care about Natsuki's life at this moment?
However, Haru stood in front of her, which made her completely confused.
What's going on? Did he regret his decision? Did he not want to help her rescue her mother?
"Don't be surprised, Yuuma. Natsuki-chan is my woman. How can I watch you take her life?
Haru knew that it was difficult for Yuuma to accept his current behavior, but in order to avoid the misunderstanding, he simply explained.
"Lo - Lover?!"
Yuuma was dumbfounded, but she quickly said, "But if we don't kill Minamiya Natsuki, there's no way to save my mother."
Yuuma understood Haru's feelings, but she was also in a difficult position now. The thought that had been instilled since childhood was about to be completed, but Haru had become the last obstacle in front of her.
What should I do now?
Yuuma was full of confusion and she didn't know what to do.
"Don't worry, Yuuma. Although I won't let you kill Natsuki-chan, it doesn't mean that there's no solution. In fact, I think we should talk with Natsuki-chan, maybe we can reach a win-win situation."
"Ta - Talk?!"
Yuuma was dumbfounded, they were about to save a criminal, how could they talk about this matter?!
It wasn't surprising that Yuuma thought this way. After all, Natsuki was known as a cold witch, and her reputation was loud in the supernatural community, and if someone could talk to her, asking her to release the prisoner inside, then what was the use of her hard work?
"Yes, we just need to talk." Haru then looked at Natsuki and said, "Well, Natsuki-chan, how about you stop pretending to sleep?"
'Pretend to sleep?'
Yuuma looked at Haru with a stunned expression as she watched him, shaking Natsuki's shoulder gently. Her eyes were wide open, wondering whether this was really alright? After all, Natsuki needed to sleep when she maintained the legendary prison, but if Natsuki was woken up and the prison was broken, then wouldn't it become the biggest joke of this century?
"Stop shaking me! I have woken up!"
Just as Yuuma couldn't process what had happened in front of her, a voice suddenly sounded, which widened her eyes. It was because Natsuki, who was unable to be woken up, opened her eyes, staring at Haru with an unhappy expression.
'What?!'
"Why do you pretend to sleep? Do you want me to kiss you before you wake up?"
Yuuma's eyes were about to fall out when she heard Haru was flirting with Natsuki and when she thought about his previous words before, she became even dumbfounded since it seemed that they were really lovers!
"No, you don't need to."
Natsuki quickly snorted and looked away, stopping him from moving closer, but even so, there was no power on her hands and she let him move closer to her as she sighed helplessly.
However, Yuuma, who saw Natsuki's affectionate gesture, thought that Haru and Natsuki were really lovers!
"Natsuki-chan, can you let me get one person out?"
"No!"
Natsuki refused Haru without hesitation!
"Don't be stingy, Natsuki-chan. I only need one person. One person is enough for me."
Haru didn't feel discouraged by Natsuki's refusal. He even coaxed her as if she were a child.
Yuuma felt complicated and somehow she felt too tired at that moment. She felt like Haru was unreliable at that moment since there was no way you could get someone out of the legendary prison with just a few words, right?
It was impossible!
It was Natsuki's duty to keep all the prisoners inside the legendary prison, and there was no way that she would let any of them escape!
