Furano watched Alton curiously; she then smiled.
“I will think about it, Alton.”
Alton smiled.
“Thank you, Furano.”
Furano smiled and nodded. Alton watched Furano curiously; he then smiled gently.
“Your cheerfulness always cheers me up and make me happy.”
Furano was surprised; she then smiled. Alton smiled cheerfully.
“Let’s do our best.”
Furano smiled.
“Of course, Alton.”
Alton smiled and nodded.
On the other part of this corridor, Daganzo was talking about something with one of the Researcher Division wizards wearing a lab coat; Daganzo then walked away. Daganzo looked around curiously and found that Furano and Alton were sitting beside each other. Daganzo appeared to realize something; he then walked away somewhere. Sometime later, Daganzo returned and walked over to Furano and Alton while carrying two canned drinks in his hands. Daganzo stopped before Furano and Alton, immediately drawing their attention.
“How are you two doing?”
Daganzo handed them the canned drinks in his hand; both accepted it happily. Alton smiled.
“It doesn’t matter, I’m not tired.”
Furano turned to Daganzo and smiled.
“I’m fine too.”
Behind his mask, Daganzo smiled; he then nodded. Furano’s expression turned curious.
“What about the preparations?”
Daganzo turned to Furano.
“I was just informed by one of the Researcher Division wizards that they were conducting experiment before we carried out the plan.”
Alton and Furano’s expressions turned curious. Alton appeared to remember something; his expression then turned curious.
“About the plan we are going to carry out, the First wizards created this magic spell to save the Phoenix’s life. If you think about it, what could make such a powerful Phoenix dying?”
Daganzo and Furano also just realized that. Behind his mask, Daganzo’s expression turned doubtful.
“I don’t know either.”
Furano’s expression turned curious.
“Maybe we can ask the Researcher Division?”
Daganzo and Alton nodded.
Sometime later, the Researcher leader walked along the corridor with several Researcher Division wizards while discussing something. The other Researcher Division then walked away. The Researcher leader continued walking towards Daganzo, Furano, and Alton; they watched the Researcher leader curiously. The Researcher leader’s expression turned deadpan.
“We did some experiments and realized something. The Phoenix uses a fire laser beam to destroy the magic circle, because when active, this Magic Circle is reinforced by magic and cannot be destroyed with ordinary magic.”
Daganzo, Furano, and Alton were slightly surprised. Daganzo appeared to realize something; behind his mask, Daganzo’s expression turned astonished.
“Wouldn’t that increase the chances of the Phoenix using its Fire laser beam? Because only that attack can destroy the magic circle.”
The Researcher leader nodded.
“Therefore, we should prepare for the worst possibility.”
Daganzo, Furano, and Alton’s expressions turned serious; they then nodded.
Sometime later, the preparations for their plan was finished. Several Scout Division wizards stood guard around the huge hole in the floor caused by the Phoenix’s fire laser beam attack. Four Researcher division wizards will hold a huge magic circle drawing on the cloth above the Phoenix. The two teams then will carry out their plans. The Researcher leader and Scout leader rode their flying broomsticks while carrying their Existence swords in one of their hands. They flew into the hangar through the hole in the floor before them. Daganzo, Furano, and Alton walked to the hole’s edge, knelt, and carefully observed the Phoenix inside the hangar.

The gigantic Phoenix leader automaton stood with both its wings and legs, observed its surroundings vigilantly, and prepared to attack. The Researcher and Scout leaders rode their flying broomsticks from above and hovered not too high from the hangar floor. Scout leader concentrated.
“Water Slash.”
Water formed and enveloped the Scout leader’s sword blade; he then slashed it forward. The huge crescent-shaped water shot quickly towards the Phoenix. At almost the same time, the Researcher leader concentrated.
“Ice Slash.”
Frozen ice spread on the Researcher Leader’s sword blade; he then slashed it forward. A huge, crescent-shaped ice shot quickly toward the Phoenix. Both of their magical attacks hit the Phoenix’s back alternately at almost the same time but did not affect it. The Phoenix turned towards them. The Researcher leader’s expression turned serious.
“From here, the real game will begin.”
Scout leader smirked.
“Let’s defeat this Phoenix immediately.”
The Phoenix opened its beak, which then burned ablaze, and a wisp of fire formed; it then shot a huge fireball at the two; they then evaded to the left and right. A huge fireball passed between them and hit the wall, but it didn’t have any effect because the magic circles protected it, and the fireball was extinguished by the magic circles carved on the hangar’s wall.
On the other hand, Daganzo, Furano, and Alton saw that the Phoenix’s attention was diverted to the Researcher leader and Scout leader. The three nodded to each other and got on their broomsticks. They entered the hangar through the wide hole in the floor, followed by four Researcher division wizards, one of whom was carrying a large folded cloth with a magic circle drawn. Inside the hangar, the four Researcher wizards opened this cloth and spread it close to the hangar ceiling; each held one corner of it and adjusted it to the Phoenix’s position so it was under it. Alton, Furano, and Daganzo hovered on their broomsticks high above the surface of the hangar floor; they then opened their notebooks, which contained long incantations to recreate the Phoenix Resurrection Magic Spell. The three started reading these incantations, and every part that had been read glowed. The magic circle drawn on the cloth glowed in some parts, got brighter, and spread out.
On the other hand, the Phoenix, standing using both its legs and wings, pounced toward the Researcher leader and Scout leader while slashing its right wing at them. The researcher and Scout leaders immediately rode their flying broomsticks to evade and succeeded. The Phoenix opened its beak and shot a fireball. The Researcher and Scout leaders used water slash and almost at the same time slashed it towards the Phoenix. Two huge crescent-shaped pieces of water hit the Phoenix’s fireball and caused a fire explosion, and the fireball disappeared. The Phoenix continued its attacks and did not change its focus from them.
The Phoenix appeared to realize something and looked around in confusion. The Phoenix looked up and saw a Magic Circle drawing on the cloth above. On the other hand, Daganzo, Alton, and Furano still focused on completing the incantations they were reading. The Phoenix opened its beak, and the magic core in its chest burned, spread throughout within of its body, and could be seen from the gaps all over its body. The Phoenix opened its beak and aimed it at the magic circle on the hangar ceiling. The Researcher leader appeared to have realized something; his expression turned serious.
“It was about to shoot a fire laser beam again.”
The Scout leader’s expression turned serious.
“We have to stop it immediately.”
The Researcher leader nodded. The Researcher and Scout leader rode their flying broomsticks while concentrating and using Ice Slash magic spells.
Frozen ice spread across their sword blade. At almost the same time, they both slashed their swords at the Phoenix. Two huge crescent-shaped pieces of ice shot towards the Phoenix and hit its head, but then shattered because of the Phoenix’s fire laser beam. Their expressions turned serious, realizing their attacks couldn’t stop the Phoenix. The two were about to relaunch their Slash element magic spells, but it was too late.
The Phoenix fired its fire laser beam upwards. Just a few seconds before, Alton, Furano, and Daganzo had finished their incantation. The magic circle drawn on the cloth above the Phoenix lights up at its brightest point, and the light from this magic circle shines on the Phoenix below it. The Phoenix’s fire laser beam stopped extending and shattered into grains of light, floating upwards and then merging with the magic circle. This fire laser beam continued to shatter rapidly until it finally reached the fire beam in the Phoenix’s beak and extinguished the fire. The Phoenix looked around in confusion, but it appeared to have become much calmer. The fire burning within the Phoenix’s body slowly turned into grains of light and flew out through the gaps in the joints all over its body, then floated upward and merged with the magic circle above. The Phoenix stood using both its wings and legs, staying where it was.
On the other hand, the Researcher leader and Scout division leader, who were just about to perform their Slash magic spell, immediately stopped and watched the Phoenix with astonished expressions. The magic circle drawn on the expansive cloth above then floated from the cloth; the four Researcher Division expressions holding this cloth turned confused.
Inside the magic circle light that shone on the Phoenix was a flashback of the Phoenix’s memories, when it was still alive in its gigantic Phoenix body with red feathers like flames, standing with both its wings and legs. In one of the flashbacks, shows the Phoenix talking to someone standing before it; this memory flashback was unclear, so the face and appearance of the person standing before the Phoenix could not be seen clearly. Several other flashbacks occurred, but it was also unclear to know what was happening until these flashbacks finally disappeared. Grains of light began to shatter from the Phoenix’s magic core and floated upwards toward the magic circle. The Phoenix looked around in astonishment.
“Where am I?”
Hearing that the Phoenix could speak surprised the wizards here. Alton’s expression turned astonished.
“Did that Phoenix just speak?”
