One purplish-red crescent-shaped blade light after another burst forth from that purplish-red stream of light.
In just a moment, eighteen purplish-red blade lights completely surrounded the Star-Devouring Whale, and each of them... emitted a heart-palpitating elemental fluctuation.
These blade lights contained power from the Abyss and the Electro elemental energy of Teyvat; although they had not yet reached the level of a God's attack, they were enough to make the Star-Devouring Whale retreat in difficulty.
Almost the moment Mr. Yuto's figure emerged from that purplish-red stream of light, the eighteen blade lights surrounding the Star-Devouring Whale instantly engulfed it.
Boom—
A violent explosion echoed throughout the Opera House; the air currents generated by the energy collision even overturned some of the specially reinforced seats in the audience area.
However... Mr. Yuto was not the only top combatant in Fontaine present.
Tartaglia and Mr. Yuto used their respective methods and abilities to make the Star-Devouring Whale completely abandon the idea of devouring the people of Fontaine, and at the same time, this bought Lord Neuvillette enough time.
As the profound magical array in front of Lord Neuvillette gradually formed, a light blue pillar of light suddenly erupted, blasting towards the Star-Devouring Whale's direction without the slightest hesitation.
Although Lord Neuvillette was not a complete Dragon at this time, this full-power attack he unleashed to protect the people of Fontaine was not a force that could be easily ignored.
Boom—
As a towering pillar of water element light illuminated the Opera House, the blow, imbued with the Water Elemental Dragon King's wrath, struck the Star-Devouring Whale solidly.
"Roar!!!"
A painful sound once again echoed throughout the Opera House; under the combined effects of Electro and water element elements, the secondary damage caused by the elemental reactions instantly made the Star-Devouring Whale lose the desire to continue fighting.
It twisted its body incessantly, trying to escape Lord Neuvillette's attack range, but the water element elemental light pillar seemed to have eyes, locking onto it relentlessly.
Under the strong elemental impact and the continuous "Electro-Charged" reactions, the Star-Devouring Whale ultimately wailed and fled back into the spatial rift.
Tartaglia, who had remained on the Star-Devouring Whale's back due to the battle, gave Mr. Yuto, who was standing not far away, a deep look, as if he wanted to say something, but then immediately fell into the spatial rift like a kite with a broken string.
"You really suffered..."
Mr. Yuto gently shook his head, sighing inwardly.
If he remembered correctly... Tartaglia used Electro elemental energy when fighting the Star-Devouring Whale, and his Electro elemental energy came from the Evil Eye...
He really couldn't imagine under what conditions Tartaglia was fighting the Star-Devouring Whale.
But speculation is speculation, not fact. The key issue now is not how Tartaglia is, but... what Lord Neuvillette and the others plan to do.
Thinking of this, Mr. Yuto once again transformed into a streak of lightning and quickly returned to the stage.
Almost the moment he returned to the stage, Mr. Yuto deactivated the attached state of the Law Enforcement Agency.
He knew very well that what needed to be done next... was by no means a battle, but an exchange and sorting of information.
As if sensing Navia's and Mademoiselle Clorinde's hesitant gazes, Mr. Yuto sighed, then spoke:
"Navia, and Mademoiselle Clorinde, our positions are not opposed; it's simply that due to different perspectives, we've had disagreements on some matters."
"But... Navia, you absolutely must not use public opinion warfare again."
"Once someone with ulterior motives seizes on a weakness... the difficulty of revitalizing the Spina di Rosula will only increase geometrically, not decrease."
Hearing this, Navia first froze, then nodded gently, indicating that she understood.
Clorinde, on the other hand, nodded knowingly, then turned her gaze to the spatial rift torn open by the Star-Devouring Whale, wondering what she was thinking.
After doing all this, Mr. Yuto looked at Lumine, who was watching him somewhat warily, sighed, and said:
"Traveler, the outcome between you and me is yet to be seen, but both you and I intend to defend what we believe to be feasible ways to solve The Prophecy, and now..."
Mr. Yuto spoke while looking at the massive spatial rift, a hint of confusion flashing in his sea-blue eyes.
How did he remember... that this spatial rift wasn't as large as it appeared now?
"Is it because the armored monster I cut down before was weak, and then Surtalogi threw in a stronger one?"
Mr. Yuto made an unreliable guess.
However, guesses are just guesses, not facts. What's important now is to clarify this matter in front of everyone.
With this in mind, Mr. Yuto slightly raised his head and said somewhat helplessly:
"Let's first think about how to solve the problem this whale has brought."
With that, Mr. Yuto turned his gaze to Lord Neuvillette, then asked quite naturally:
"Lord Neuvillette, do you have any idea about this?"
Hearing Mr. Yuto's words, Lord Neuvillette first froze, then gently shook his head.
"I apologize... regarding the true origin of this whale, I am not clea—"
"Lord Neuvillette! Lord Yuto!"
