Just when everyone thought Dante was about to die like this.
===[Sky Screen]===
???: "Tell the Serpent this, false lion."
Red-Eyed Man: "This flow cannot be stopped."
Lion: "Grh… GAAAH!!"
In the scene, a man with glowing red eyes holding a red shortsword appears and severs the Lion's left arm in a single stroke.
Wolf: "Red…? But why? Argh..."
Before he could finish, the Wolf's right arm was also severed by the man.

Three Kingdoms
"So... so strong!" Cao Cao exclaimed in amazement.
The previous three had basically crushed the other twelve, yet as soon as he appeared, he disabled two of them in just a few exchanges. In this world, perhaps only Lü Bu could stand a chance against him.
Qing Dynasty
"Those eyes are truly terrifying, to think they are red," Emperor Qianlong said, pointing at Vergilius's eyes.
"Your Majesty, no matter how strong he is, he is but one man. It's one thing to fight those three on the sky screen, but our Great Qing army is vast; a single spit from each soldier would be enough to drown him," Heshen said flatteringly from the side.
"Well said! No matter how strong he is, he is no match for the army of my Great Qing," Emperor Qianlong said with a face full of pride.
This is the difference between the martial world and the imperial court. What if you become the leader of the martial arts world? If one person can't solve it, then ten; if ten can't, then a hundred; if a hundred can't, then a thousand, or ten thousand.

Red-Eyed Man: "Do you know why I only dismembered those two?"
Red-Eyed Man: "Because at least one of you needs to be able to carry the rest out of here. And you're the only one left to offer them any help."
Panther: "…The Red Gaze."
Red-Eyed Man: "Don't glare at me like that. This is nothing compared to what you did. With wounds like those, I'm sure your boss will recognize that you did your part. Consider them a medal of honor."
Red-Eyed Man: "Unless... You want this to be the end of your life?"
Panther: "..."
Dante: "
Red-Eyed Man: "No one is too late, Dante. There is only one thing we need… A little time to rewind."
Dante: "<...!>"
I'm suddenly overwhelmed by a sharp pain in my chest, as though my heart were being torn asunder. Followed by flashes in the ribs, intestines, stomach, and lungs.
Dante: "
Engulfed in a deluge of torment twisting and squeezing my entire body, I let out an agonizing scream.
===[Line Break]===
"Just hearing that sound, one can tell it's painful. I wonder if Mafeisan would still be effective," Hua Tuo said upon hearing the clock sounds from the sky screen.
"However... hearing that person called 'Red Gaze' say that no one is too late and all that's needed is to rewind time—what does that mean?"
===[Sky Screen]===
Dante: "
In my fading consciousness, the only thing I could perceive…
…Was the deceased's flesh reconstructing in a bizarre manner.
In the scene, the broken bones of the deceased reconnected, blood flowed back into their bodies, wounds began to heal, and they stood up once again. Among them, a black-haired woman looked at her healing wounds with joy; not far away, a blond boy looked at his now-complete body in disbelief; and further off, a man with a high ponytail walked with his back straight and a playful grin, as if he had just played an interesting game.
Gregor was bent over, clutching his head and muttering something. Ishmael held up her shield, her eyes wide as she stared at her restored wounds. Faust, sitting nearby, remained calm about her own injuries, as if she had known all along that she would be resurrected.
Red-Eyed Man: "You'll suffer aplenty from now on, Dante."
And the voice of the man with red eyes.

Qin Dynasty
"Resurrected... they've been resurrected." Qin Shi Huang couldn't stop trembling as he watched Faust and the others stand back up.
"If I could have Dante, then when I die, I would only need him to turn back the clock for me, and I could live forever. Why would I even need elixirs then?"
"Order Xu Fu to set sail immediately! Search for The City in the heavens for Us, and invite Dante from the sky screen to our Great Qin."
Three Kingdoms
"Wonderful, Ms. Faust has been resurrected," Cao Cao said excitedly. (The term 'Lady/Ms.' originated from the Classic of Poetry as a respectful title for knowledgeable and cultured women.) (T/N: I think I'll keep this one here)
"However, even the clothing has been restored." Chancellor Cao, who had hoped to see snow-white skin through the gaps in the clothes, felt quite disappointed.
Spring and Autumn Period
"Master, do you know what kind of method this is? To actually be able to resurrect the dead," Zilu asked from the side.
"The person with red pupils mentioned earlier that all that's needed is to rewind time. I suspect they have turned back the time in their surroundings, thus reversing life and death," Confucius replied.
Elsewhere
"By reversing time, the dead are returned to the moment before they died, as if they had never perished at all," Laozi said, sitting atop his green ox.
"However, this method goes against the natural order. Judging by His state, the price to be paid is likely not small."
