Simply put, it's the Onpharos version of Pokémon, Pokémon.
To fight alongside soldiers
The strange beasts that chased after them made Tirispius's head buzz.
Qiong simply plucked two tufts of hair from the broom in the corner, rubbed them into two comical mustaches, and stuck them under his nose.
"Huh? (Can you see the intruder?)"
A strange beast stopped in front of Qiong as if it were unaware of anything.
They ran that way!
Qiong's little claws pointed in the opposite direction.
"Hoo! (Thanks for the guidance!)"
The strange beast immediately galloped away, only stopping abruptly after running ten meters. It blinked its large amber eyes in bewilderment as it came to its senses.
This unbelievable scene aroused suspicion in Tirispius.
Could it be that the Holy Land's annual budget for purchasing and cultivating high-quality mythical beasts has been embezzled by those guys in the Senate?
Buy some... uh, not-so-smart mythical creatures at a low price to get by?
The guards who were chasing after them were all dumbfounded when they saw the strange beast they had been taking such good care of every day behaving so foolishly.
Is this correct?
Suddenly, I felt like I was being taken advantage of, working hard from dawn till dusk to take care of these idiots.
Under the dual protection of Qiong Jerry and March 7, Tirispius's infiltration was fraught with danger but ultimately safe, leaving her bewildered by the constantly evolving worldview.
"We're almost there; the Janus Treasury is just ahead."
After rushing out of a long corridor, a more classical and magnificent temple came into view.
"finally……"
Tirispius took a deep breath and forcefully pushed open the gilded gate, which was surrounded by golden patterns and resembled a radiating sun, with her slender, fair hands.
Is this the treasure vault?
Upon entering the towering stone hall and closing the door, Qiong reverted from Jerry's state to her original form.
Looking around, the walls are covered with murals related to Janus.
At the end, there stands an exquisitely carved stone platform.
"That's what they call the spark?"
Qiong's gaze was focused on the altar.
There was a huge golden bowl-shaped container placed there.
Above the container, a luminous object, resembling a dripping flame, floats, its core radiating a golden and blue light, surrounded by a golden ring of light.
“tai~kaer~ (Tirisippius…you’ve come.)”
The ethereal, deep, and inhumanly resonant Titan language drifted in.
“Janus, I knew you still had a shred of reason left. Sure enough… you’ve been imprisoned too.”
Tirispius gazed at the spark, her tone complex.
"No way, Titans can be imprisoned by humans?"
Qiong twitched her lips.
“sa~”
Janus's voice was ethereal and distant. He did not respond, but instead carefully examined the dome.
"As night fell, Janus, wounded in the previous war of the gods, was extremely weak."
Tirispius explained.
“ku~aa~ (Step forward, and you will bury yourself, bury the gods, and bury the fate that governs us.)”
Janus withdrew his observation of the dome and turned his attention back to his saintess.
“No, Janus…”
Tirispius slowly shook her head, her long red hair swaying gently, her expression tender yet resolute and dignified:
"I came here...to take over your destiny."
"ta~tie~(Hehe, those who guide the world, their souls will surely be separated by a wrong path, you will be shattered into a thousand pieces, withering away in...?▅█…tread...home...?▅█…?)"
Titan's voice paused several times before abruptly stopping, and finally even typed a question mark himself.
This left Tirispiebus extremely puzzled.
Where will I wither away?
She didn't hear the second half of the sentence clearly, but she heard the first half.
and so.
"Just to my liking."
There was no fear in Tirispius's eyes.
"This is destined to be a long journey, but with a thousand versions of myself to accompany me, I will never be alone."
"..."
Something unexpected happened, and Janus fell silent. After a long while, he spoke again.
“zhu~ha~ (Chasing fire is a journey of constant loss.)”
Qiong's brow twitched.
Oh, you know about fire chasing too?
"Si~nv~ (Time will erode your spirit, the path will crumble your body, the scales will weigh separation, until the end approaches. Daughter burdened with three lives, are you truly ready?)"
Tirispeius, the name means one who has a triple life.
Mortes believed that the birth of her child was a blessing from the three Titans of Fate, and the name represented her gratitude to the Titans.
"Of course, Titan, let this prophecy shatter me, so that I may pave countless paths for this dying world!"
Qiong gazed at the red-haired girl.
To be honest, Tirispius was not suited to be a leader.
To be honest, she was just an innocent and naive child.
Can you expect a child to achieve anything outstanding?
Yes, you can.
Because she will always be that innocent child, and that is the essence of Tirispius's divinity.
She possesses a heart full of unquenchable passion.

“ga~raer~ (That's...very good...)”
Janus's voice sounded like a sigh, yet also like approval.
"(Overthrow the gods, assume divine authority, forge miracles!)"
"(Go hunt down our comrades, mourn our fate, nourish our paradise with the spirits of the gods.)"
"(You must remember, you should remember, the people will witness a miracle with...█▅,█▅...???)"
Janus?
Sensing an even stronger sense of confusion and hesitation emanating from the fire than before, Tirispius couldn't help but look bewildered.
[Everyone will part from one man, but he alone will witness miracles.]
This was the last sentence of the prophecy her mother received from Kephale, and she knew it by heart.
But this was the second time Janus had acted strangely while delivering the prophecy.
Janus: "—"
The strange reply plunged the treasure vault into a subtle silence.
"Uh, although the atmosphere here feels a lot like an epic moment when a hero is about to draw his holy sword, shouldn't we... try to get out of here with the flame first, and then talk slowly?"
March 7th chuckled dryly, scratched his head, and pointed behind him.
Outside the giant gate, the sounds of impact and shouts were becoming increasingly frequent and loud.
"Anyone who touches the flame! Open the gates and surrender immediately, or you will be spared!"
"Traitor, if you turn back now, there is still a glimmer of hope!"
Tirispius couldn't hear March 7's words, so Little March blinked her big eyes and urged Qiong to relay them.
however.
"That's easy to say."
The sudden sound from the dome attracted Tirispius to turn his head.
Then, she saw Qiong magically produce a pink door out of thin air.
"Let's find a quieter place to talk."
Qiong reached out, turned the handle of the Anywhere Door, and gently pulled it inward.
The Anywhere Door is working now, but the map is a bit rough.
It can only point to a general destination, not to a specific point.
This is one of the reasons why Qiong did not use the Anywhere Door to directly access Janus's Treasury.
But to leave, you don't need detailed coordinates; just find any location.
Gazing at the endless sea beyond the door, and hearing the clear sound of waves crashing against the rocks, the treasure vault fell into an even more eerie silence than before.
March 7th: "?"
Tirispeius: "??"
Janus: "???"
Both humans and the god simultaneously raised question marks, with Janus, the Gate Titan, raising the most.
Knowing the existence and destination of all paths, and controlling the passages people take, He clearly knows that beyond the gate lies a coastline of over a thousand kilometers.
but……
How did you open the door?
What kind of door is this?
Why does it feel easier for me than for me to open the door?
"Don't just stand there, let's go!"
Qiong greeted the bewildered March 7th and Tirispius.
"Oh~!"
March 7th, who was already used to the Starry Sky Duo pulling out all sorts of strange and unusual gadgets, was the first to regain his mobility and darted through the Anywhere Door.
Tirispius, however, was still shrouded in a lingering sense of bewilderment.
Qiong placed both hands on the girl's delicate shoulders and pushed her towards him.
Then, he deftly carried away the entire golden holy basin containing the embers of fire.
Incidentally, they also took a few nice-looking and valuable trinkets from the treasure vault's shelves.
"Consider it compensation for being hunted down."
One step, a thousand miles.
"It seems a bit cold here, let's find another place."
Qiong hugged the golden basin, surveyed the surroundings, and was not entirely satisfied.
