Chapter 566 World Magic: Spell Number 25
From the magic circle hovering high up in the air, a semi-transparent space-warping wave of energy radiated outwards, stretching towards the edges of Lacertilia.
This wave was formed from a mixture of various energy types, magic power, ether, aura, celestial energy, demonic energy and so on.
It blanketed the sky, extending to take on the form of a massive dome that encompassed the entirety of Lacertilia, dungeons included.
Those inside and outside the city all watched on in shock, unable to do anything as the spell\'s activation period was just too short—only taking a single minute to cover the entire city.
Within this time, some Epic Level existences arrived at the city centre where the Kethryllia was, but the redhead only lifted her palm from the ground calmly before glancing around at all of them.
Before they could even ask any questions, she held up that same palm and waved at them.
"Hello, and Goodbye."
The same instant she said that, the semi-transparent barrier completely enclosed the city, and the spell\'s true effect began.
All the Epic Level existences found themselves suddenly surrounded by streaks of spatial energy, with the more perceptive ones realise that was the energy of the World Law of Space itself.
Even the few X-rank adventurers in the city, the ones inside the dungeons—wherever they were located—all noticed this phenomenon.
Did they try to do anything about it?
Obviously.
Did they succeed?
From the darkening expressions on the faces of the Living Legends inside the dungeon, clearly not.
Regardless of their input in the matter, the World Law energy forcefully ensnared every single being on the Legendary Level, before proceeding to send them through the fabric of space and out of the massive semi-transparent dome barrier.
A second later, all the Epic Level existences—save for Kethryllia and her contracted demon—also got teleported out of the city.
Next on the list, was the S rank adventurers, however, in this category, only the peak S rankers/Superior Stage grandmasters in the city were teleported out.
Within 120 Seconds of the World Magic\'s initial activation, there was no existence above level 450 within the borders of Dungeon City Lacertilia.
During a Dungeon Break from a Dungeon with a Max level of 500.
"Let\'s keep it at this level for now.
I\'d change it if there are any complications."
Kethryllia muttered to herself as she looked at the magic circle rotating in her palm. She then clenched her fist before calling out to her contracted demon.
"Come on Thagol.
Let\'s go talk to the biggest lizard there is. Let\'s see if he\'d let me stuff a certain hero down his throat in his spare time."

Nameless Beach
Unknown Location
May 5th
Year 1053
The beach seemed to stretch endlessly, with its golden sands kissed by the foamy embrace of turquoise waves.
Seagulls danced in the salty breeze above, their calls mingling with the soothing rhythm of the ocean.
And on this fine morning, a certain woman was lounging comfortably on this beach, her back reclining on the beach chair gracefully while her dark purple hair cascaded over the sides as if melding with the shadows beneath.
Giving off an air of serene beauty as she rested beneath the sheltering embrace of a white beach umbrella, she gazed silently towards the direction of the ocean with her purple eyes, and her delicate lips curved into a faint, enigmatic smile.
Her black pupils were an \'X\' shape, reminiscent of the tic-tac-toe game, and those eyes only reflected the figure standing a few metres away from her, doing something with their hands in the air.
Whatever it was they were doing, it was the reason why although this beach looked calm, there were hundreds of miniature spatial storms imperceptible to the naked eye scattered all over.
*BUZZ! BUZZZZ!
"Hmm?"
She turned her gaze downwards upon hearing the low buzzing sound, at the small phone-like device that was on the side stool beside her.
Picking it up, she went through the text that showed up on it and her elegant facial features slowly contorted into a light frown.
"What\'s up?"
The voice of the other person present pulled her attention from the message, and for a moment she considered hiding the message she had just seen but decided against it ultimately.
"Well…Your sister\'s contractor contacted me. Something about a potential emergency situation."
"Potential emergency with Kethy?"
The other party immediately stopped their actions and turned while replying, while the purple-eyed woman only sighed and got up from the chair.
"Yeah.
Considering Thagol had the guts to call then I\'m guessing it\'s pretty serious."
She snapped her fingers and her light robes changed to a long flowing dress that cascaded down her figure like liquid amethyst, its fabric dancing with the breeze as if echoing the ocean waves nearby.
"She was in Kolvar\'s country, right? You can continue what you\'re doing.
I\'d go check on her."
After reassuring the other party, the woman pictured a map of the Alpha continent in her head and locked on to the southern area where the Beast Kingdom was.
She then parted her lips and called out one word.
"Gate."
A rift in the fabric of space manifested before her, a shimmering and swirling gateway formed by the Tier 6 Spatial Magic spell she had just used.
The air around the gate distorted and a faint hum resonated as the portal beckoned towards the Alpha Continent, bridging the gap between two distant points in space.
"I can\'t really remember where Kolvar\'s country is. I guess I\'d just look around till I find it."
The woman casually spoke about \'looking around\' the southern half of a 102 million square kilometre continent as she disappeared into the spatial gate.

"Brachium!"
The voice of a powerful SSS-ranked adventurer at around level 650 rang out, her magic power surging like a tempest as she invoked this Tier 4 Flame spell.
It was the easiest and fastest to cast, yet still one of the most destructive out there.
Four intricated magic circles materialized around her arm, engulfing it in a blazing aura of flames dancing in vibrant hues.
The air seemed to shimmer with anticipation as the energy concentrated, while all the other powerful adventurers present watched on silently.
She unleashed the fiery punch upon the semi-transparent barrier before her, putting a bit over half her strength into it.
**BOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
An explosion erupted with a blinding brilliance upon contact, flames of unprecedented heat and power scorching through the air with reverberating shockwaves as a plume of smoke engulfed the scene.
But when the smoke cleared, the semi-transparent barrier was revealed to be completely spotless.
Not even the soot from the flames covered its surface, and neither was there a single crack or blemish marring its integrity.
This dome barrier had remained resolute against her attack, defying the wrath of a spell that could even crumble part of a mountain like Verduracliff.
Darkened gazes reflected the disbelief that settled upon the nearby adventurers, with the S and SS rankers seeming to despair.
If the woman who was clearly stronger than they were couldn\'t break this barrier, then there was nothing that they could hope to do.
They turned their gazes towards a nearby party of adventurers that seemed to have been sent out from before everyone present, each one of them having the energies of the very laws of the World swirling around them.
One of them was clearly enraged by the situation and was raking while his companion tried to calm him down.
Another member from their party stepped forward, drawing upon the bone-chilling energy of the law of destruction that made all those present feel the instinctive need to guard their souls.
The air crackled with resonance as the energy coalesced into the form of a crimson-red sword, gleaming with radiance.
With the sword of a world law in hand, he raised it high and unleashed a mighty slash, the blade cleaving through the air and destroying the space it passed.
The impact with the dome barrier released a massive explosion of energy that shattered the boundaries of perception for some S rankers. The collision of world law energies rippled through the air like a shockwave, knocking back even SSS rankers who were nearby.
Yet, as the echoes of the collision faded, the dome barrier remained largely unchanged.
It rippled softly, like a tranquil pond responding to the touch of a passing breeze, before settling back to its former state.
This sight caused a heavy silence to settle over the witnesses, a mixture of awe and trepidation painting their faces.
The Legendary Level existence\'s display of power had been nothing short of breathtaking, but it was met with a reminder of the daunting nature of the barrier that encased Lacertilia.
*booOM!
