At long last, the arduous ten-day waiting period came to an end, and a sense of relief washed over Ace. The anticipation had been palpable, and now, their patience was rewarded.

First emerged the Dragon Turtle, a colossal behemoth that rivaled the size of a house. Its majestic presence was awe-inspiring, a symbol of strength and protection. With scales glistening and an aura of power, the Dragon Turtle stood ready to defend its master and allies.

Following closely was the Ice Phoenix, a magnificent creature with wings spanning half the size of a house. Its plumage shimmered with an icy sheen, and its eyes held a glint of intelligence and determination. The Ice Phoenix exuded an air of grace and mystique, a guardian of frost.

Allie approached Ace, inquiring, "Aren't we joining the battle outside?"

Ace responded, adhering to the government's regulations, "The government prohibits anyone under 18 from participating in war. Our priority is safeguarding our loved ones. For now, we must focus on protecting them and ensuring their safety."

Ace received a distress call from one of the shelters: "Dark cult forces are attacking, and they've infiltrated our shelters. Communication has been severed, and we're under siege."

Amidst the crisis of two shelters going offline, Ace swiftly directed the Nine-Tailed Illusion Fox to craft a convincing illusion. It depicted him in a remote, slumbering state, effectively rendering him invisible and diverting attention away from his true location, a strategic maneuver to find Dark Cult.

After a few hours had passed.

In the midst of the chaotic distraction, Ace remained concealed near his illusion. Suddenly, a stranger approached and slashed at the illusion's neck with a small dagger. In that critical moment, Ace managed to catch a glimpse of the assailant's face.

Swiftly, Ace called upon the Nine-Tailed Illusion Fox's power. He urgently commanded it to craft an illusion that portrayed both himself and the fox meeting their demise simultaneously. This strategic move aimed to deceive their potential adversaries, making them believe that Ace and the Nine-Tailed Illusion Fox had perished, hopefully diverting attention away from their true location and ensuring their continued safety in the tumultuous situation.

Allie and her family were devastated as they beheld the illusion of Ace's lifeless form. Tears welled up in their eyes, and sorrow gripped their hearts. The sight of Ace's apparent demise brought forth an overwhelming wave of grief and anguish, leaving them with a profound sense of loss.

Their cries echoed in the shelter, a mournful chorus of sorrow and despair. It was a poignant moment where the illusion's realism had a deep emotional impact, driving home the gravity of the situation. Allie and her family clung to each other for support, grappling with the harsh reality that had unfolded before them.

After a harrowing interval, a group of individuals arose, identifying themselves as members of the dark cult, and began ruthlessly taking lives. In response, Ace urgently commanded the Nine-Tailed Illusion Fox to employ its abilities and transport these aggressors to the dream world.

As soon as the dark cult members fell into the illusion, Ace's own illusion dissipated, revealing his presence. Swiftly, Ace emerged from concealment and directed the people to secure the cult members using B-rank chains.

With the cult threat contained, Ace immediately initiated contact with all the shelters, urgently instructing them to summon their pets. The dark cult's infiltration of the shelters had brought about a grave situation, and it was imperative that they mobilized all available resources, including their formidable pets, to ensure the safety and security of everyone within the shelters.
