"Ggh. Hey!" Leitner catches Skysalmon's charge with an axe at the ready and sends it hurtling back into the air.

He is in charge of the food storage facility, and he and his men are defending the food storage facility where the non-combatants are sheltering.

"Captain Leitner! I'll step forward as bait!" shouts one of his men in a skinhead outfit. Iron knuckles clanging together in his hands.

"No! Do not break the circle! Hartness. And I'm not the captain anymore, yo. Dasyaa!" Littner slams his axe into the next Sky Salmon as he replies, "I'm not going to let you do that.

The axe catches the skysalmon clean on the nose. But the blade fails to penetrate. With a jerk of his head, the skysalmon runs away into the sky.

"Hey, man, that was the best I ever played."

"What do we do now? We're going to be out of our depth, Captain," said Hartness.

"That's why you've got to be the captain. ────" I was about to make such a joke because I was not optimistic about the situation. Something comes flying through the gap in the tent.

"What is that ......?" A big hairball or a plant? Is that new? No, wait. I think it's eating a skysalmon!"

The men are stunned by its bizarre appearance. And then a fissure appears in the circle. The skysalmons attack as if they were looking for an opening.

Leitner raises his voice.

"Don't let up! Here they come!"

Rittner and his men tried to regain their posture in a hurry, but some of their men were hit by the sky-salmons' body blows and were blown away.

The circle collapses, opening a passageway to the food storage facility.

"d*mn!" Leitner stands in front of Sky Salmon, which rushes forward to block the passageway, throwing itself down.

He readies his axe and braces himself for the impact.

However, the impact does not come for a long time, and when Leitner lowers his axe, he finds that all the sky salmon in front of him are entangled in vines.

It was thorn ivy.

The sharp thorns of the thorns are dragging the skysalmons toward the root of the vine, mangling their bodies.

Leitner's gaze naturally follows them.

Finally, he realizes.

"It's growing out of a scroll. ......? Scrolls! I see... this is the Rust Master's...

"Oh, all those skysalmons fell apart in an instant. Even the captain's axe couldn't get through!" Hartness is stunned as he falls to his knees.

Leitner checks to see if Hartness is hurt and pulls him up.

"Well, well, well, well... I really don't know what's going on here," says Hartness. After all the trouble we went through! A master alchemist is more than a monster. But what's with the spiky ivy?

"It's a captain..."

"So you're not the captain, how many times ......?"

Hartness points a trembling finger at the sky over Leitner's head.

Leitner turns around.

All eyes are naturally drawn to it.

There were eight scrolls flying in the sky. The eight scrolls were overflowing from each of them, slaughtering, breaking apart, and swallowing one by one the sky-salmons that were filling the sky.
