Facing the hideous and fearsome figure of Queen Mary lunging towards him, even though her outstretched claws were already within inches, Yu Chen still casually picked up the cane that had been set aside, stabbing at Queen Mary with it and, while doing so, managed to instruct Hiromi Jounouchi, "Wife, deal with these underlings for me, I'll take care of the Queen!"

Having said that, he then spread his own wings, transforming into the appearance of an Underworld Feather Angel, and his cane also morphed into a Great Cross Sword, thrusting straight at the Queen's chest.

However, Queen Mary's folding fan acted like a shield, blocking directly in front of Yu Chen's sword's edge.

The seemingly frail folding fan, after being coated with a layer of blood light, firmly blocked Yu Chen's sword's edge.

The other hand of Queen Mary eerily stretched out, like a boneless whip, lashing towards Hiromi Jounouchi, who was standing behind Yu Chen, preparing to draw her weapon.

This sudden strike left Hiromi Jounouchi somewhat caught off guard, and although she barely dodged Queen Mary's claws by moving to the side, the necklace around her neck was snatched off by Queen Mary.

"Ah! My necklace!" Seeing the necklace Yu Chen had given her being snatched away and falling onto the bloodstained ground, Hiromi Jounouchi let out a cry of alarm and then looked towards Queen Mary with eyes filled with rage, she was angry.

Her jewelry and long gown vanished in an instant, blue Dragon Scale Armor enveloped her body, a pair of Dragon Wings unfurled, she picked up the dropped necklace from the ground, but instead of engaging in battle with the nobles in the banquet hall who had turned into monsters, Hiromi Jounouchi flew straight out.

Seeing Hiromi Jounouchi flying out of the courtyard, Queen Mary burst into a crazed laugh, "Hahaha, is this your eternal soul mate? She actually turns to run away in the face of an enemy!"

"I don't think she's running away." Yu Chen didn't believe his wife was fleeing, on the contrary, he sensed the anger in Hiromi Jounouchi, "Perhaps you can get a taste of what is called Dragon's Wrath."

While speaking, Yu Chen's Great Cross Sword repeatedly stabbed at the four faces on Queen Mary's abdomen and the Gilded skull, forcing Queen Mary to open a pair of insect wings that grew on her backside and fly up to dodge Yu Chen's attacks.

Yet, although the clash between the two appeared fierce, with each of Yu Chen's swords strikes swift as lightning, seemingly capable of slicing Queen Mary in half upon contact, his offense was consistently measured and deliberate, purely relying on his swordsmanship without employing any Spell power or the might of a Demigod.

Queen Mary seemed to also revel in this rare pleasure, only using the folding fan in her hand to block Yu Chen's blade, without other actions from the tentacles on her back and the four faces on her abdomen. Even the arm that had attacked Hiromi Jounouchi did not stretch out again, which made the entire battle appear as if both participants were merely biding their time.

As for the nobles who attended the banquet, although they turned into an array of insect and monster hybrids when Queen Mary revealed her monstrous form, they still carried on with the party. However, what was on the banquet tables had transformed; the cakes that were once sweet now rotted and stank, the juicy roast meat turned into bloody limbs and torsos, eyeballs floated in the soup bowls, organs were laid out on the plates, and stench-filled blood flowed over the champagne tower...

Everything was like hell, including the band and their instruments, which also transformed; the harp turned into a living person kneeling on the ground, their entire body serving as the frame of the harp, its strings made of veins and tendons pulled out from within; the trumpets – both big and small – still looked like brass instruments, but their shapes had mutated, fully fusing into the musicians' flesh, each blow carrying with it the wails of the musicians' blood and flesh.

The violin appeared to be made by inserting the soundboard into the back of a living baby, with the child's ribs spreading open the resonating box, and the spine from the back becoming the fingerboard. The player used the bow to pull on the baby's extracted spinal cord and nerves, eliciting different pitches of wailing, just like the previous performance of the piece.

If this had been an ordinary person, they would have gone insane upon witnessing all of this, but Yu Chen remained indifferent to these horrors and instead still seemed enthusiastic, fighting and chatting casually with Queen Mary.

"You have four faces on you, plus one of your own, and counting the skull, that should make up six identities for you. I'm quite curious as to which six they are." Once again thrusting his sword against the folding fan that Queen Mary had held against her chest, Yu Chen asked her, "Or perhaps I should call you by some name, Mary Stuart? Elizabeth Bathory? Or Lee Kester?"

"Those two names are merely additional bonuses, from the beginning, I have had only one name, Mary!" Queen Mary let out a shrill scream, grabbed the oldest and most serious of the four faces on her abdomen, and tore it off, pressing it onto her own face. Where the face had been torn off, another face quickly grew out, precisely the one that had been Queen Mary's own face before.

"Mary? So you really are Mary Stuart, Queen of England and Ireland?" Yu Chen tried to extract more information from Queen Mary, who had now completely become a monster.

She had a total of five faces; one was Mary Stuart, Elizabeth Bathory and Lee Kester were add-ons, so who were the other two faces? She said she had lived three lifetimes, always with the single name Mary; could it be that these two faces also belonged to historical figures named Mary?

Yu Chen pondered while still circling around Queen Mary. However, just then, a tremendous sound of water came from outside the palace, as if waves were crashing against rocks.

Upon hearing this sound, Yu Chen smiled and with a lift of his lips, said, "It seems before you answer my question, you may first witness the Dragon's Wrath."

Having said that, Yu Chen forced Queen Mary back with a thrust of his sword and, with a turn, flew out of the banquet hall.

Just as Queen Mary was about to give chase, a torrent of blood poured in from outside the door, quickly engulfing the nobles who were still enjoying the fleshful feast in the hall.

The blood quickly filled the entire banquet hall, and except for Queen Mary, who was flying in the air, all the nobles and every bit of filth within the hall were drowned in the blood.

Looking down at the churning blood beneath her and at the nobles dissolving in it, the smile on Queen Mary's face grew increasingly maniacal, "Blood? Dare to play with blood in front of me? Hahaha! I will turn you into a fountain in my palace!"

After speaking, Queen Mary let out a bout of maniacal laughter, broke straight through the banquet hall's glass window, and rushed out.

In the sky above, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi stood side by side, calmly waiting for her, while the palace below was already a sea of blood red.
