"Time to try this."

  After a month of gruelira training, Chihiro finally found an opportunity to go down the mountain.

  The reason for his trip? To test the Qillin Seal's capabilities.

  To be on the safe side, Chihiro decided to head to the remote mountains of Wakayama Prefecture, not far from Mount Koya. The area was secluded, ensuring no unwanted spectators or disruptions.

  By car, it would have taken hours to reach his choseing spot. However, with the aid of his Css Card, he mao cut the journey down to less than thirty minutes.

  ---

  Uhe shadow of a remote hilltop surrounded by dense forest, Chihiro stood alone.

  "O thunderous gods, heed my call, and justice shall prevail!"

  After finding a suitable spot, he took out the Qillin Seal and activated it, ting the intation.

  This was his first time using the artifact, aement mixed with nervous anticipation bubbled inside him.

  "Divine Qilin, grahe power of unyielding victory!"

  As he spoke the final words, a radiant light burst forth from the seal, and a sleek golde appeared out of thin air, ing itself snugly around Chihiro's waist.

  Taking a deep breath, Chihiro ied the Qillin Seal into the slot on the belt.

  A brilliant fsh illumihe surroundings, and from the seal, a majestic armored Qilin emerged—a mythical beast radiating divine power.

  The armored Qilin was her than Legendary Qilin, the maion of the Qilin Armor.

  To don the armor, Chihiro would first o gain the Qilin's approval.

  "Hmm?"

  The Qilin tilted its head curiously, sing its surroundings before its gaze nded on Chihiro.

  Man a locked eyes, her moving for a long moment.

  Then, as if making up its mind, the Qilin lu Chihiro.

  The moment it made tact, the Qilin dissolved into a flurry of light and ed itself around Chihiro's body, transf into a set of stunning golden and red armor.

  The Qillin Armor had accepted him, albeit relutly.

  Chihiro could sehe differen its acceptanpared to others who had wielded it in the past. It wasn't the wholehearted approval grao the likes of heroes with unshakable ideals of justice.

  "Guess I've got some work to do," Chihiro muttered to himself, flexing his hands in their gaus.

  ---

  "This is… the power of the Qillin Armor."

  The instant he dohe armor, Chihiro felt an overwhelming surge of strength c through his body.

  Testing its capabilities, he darted forward and found himself standing over a hundred meters away in a siion.

  With another casual move, he reached for a nearby tree and uprooted it effortlessly.

  The sheer amplification of his physical abilities was staggering.

  "So this is one of the Four Ultimate Armors," Chihiro said, marveling at the armor's power. "With this and the strength of my Css Card, I could probably take down a Heroic Spirit with ease."

  , he decided to test the equipment that came with the armor.

  Chihiro summohe Fire Qilin Cw, the Demon-Suppressing Buckle, and the Fire Qilin Sword—each a uool desigo augment the armor's already formidable capabilities.

  ---

  Finally, Chihiro attempted to unleash some of the armor's signature abilities, such as Qilin Flight and its ultimate move, Qilin's Final Judgment Ssh.

  However, to his dismay, her teique worked.

  "Figures," Chihiro muttered. "Looks like I haven't fully earhe Qilin's trust yet."

  Still, he wasn't disced. Building a e with the armor would take time, and he was willing to put in the effort.

  ---

  Once he fiesting the armor's bat capabilities, Chihiro moved on to the highlight of the day.

  After deactivating the armor, he tossed the Qillin Seal into the air.

  A golden fsh appeared, and out of nowhere, a sleek sports car materialized before him.

  The car's body was adorned with red fme patterns, giving it a fierd stylish appearance.

  This was the Qilin Chariot, the Qillin Armor's vehicle, capable of traveling through time and space.

  Chihiro climbed into the driver's seat, eager to test the car's legendary abilities. However, as he activated the trol panel, a line of text fshed across the dashboard: System Failure.

  Frowning, Chihiro tacted the system for an expnation.

  The answer was simple yet frustrating:

  The Qilin Chariot's time-travel teology had been designed specifically for the ws of physi the Armor Hero World. Sihe Type-Moon World operated under airely different system of ws, the car's time-travel funality was inpatible.

  If Chihiro wao restore the time-travel ability, he would o ie the chariot with a time-space system native to the Type-Moon World.

  One possibility was Chaldea's Spiritron Transfer System, which utilized pseudo-spiritrons and teology from the Ats Institute to transport Masters across time periods.

  However, this method wasn't true time travel, it only allowed for movement to alterimelines or simuted pasts.

  The only surefire way to unlock true time travel iype-Moon World was by obtaining the Fifth Magic, a legendary ability tied to Aoko Aozaki.

  "Seriously? I have to go ask the Blue Magus for help?" Chihiro groaned, running a hand through his hair. "What are the ces she'd even agree to that?"

  He began to wonder if the Fifth Magic could eveegrated into the Qilin Chariot. The sheer plexity of magid teology blending made his head spin.

  Fortunately, the system offered him a workaround.

  While the Qilin Chariot couldn't utilize its inal time-travel system, the system had enhas spatial travel capabilities.

  The system provided Chihiro with a list of coordihat allowed the chariot to ect to other Type-Moon worlds, effectively granting him access to alternate universes.

  Though it wasn't as versatile as true time travel, the ability to visit different worlds still opened up tless opportunities for exploration and adventure.

  "Not bad," Chihiro muttered, nodding in approval.
