Chapter 178: The attention of the Lion King Organization ()

"You don't seem to believe me."

Looking at Sayaka Ayase, who was suddenly stunned, Lin Que patted Natsuki Minamiya beside him.

"Little Natsuki, tell her whether I killed those annoying guys or not."

"Although I don't really like this guy, he is indeed not lying to you."

Perhaps to appease Sayaka Ayase, Natsuki Minamiya cooperated with Lin Que for once, following his lead.

"Just like when Lin Que first arrived at the Prison Barrier and killed all the prisoners except for you."

"Not long ago, when he first arrived on Itogami Island, he killed nearly one-third of the high-ranking officials on Itogami Island."

"One-third?"

Sayaka Ayase finally came to her senses: "You are indeed very powerful to be able to kill so many high-ranking officials on Itogami Island, but those guys back then..."

"Those guys were all very secretive in their actions, and it's hard to find out who the masterminds and participants were."

"Unless you kill them all and clean them out, someone will inevitably survive by luck."

Lin Que pointed to his own ear: "How about it? Do you believe what I said now, Sayaka Ayase?"

"...Mind reading?"

"That's right."

Lin Que replied: "For someone of your level, as long as I have the thought, there are no secrets before me."

Being able to become the leader of the world-class criminal organization LCO, Sayaka Ayase's strength was among the strongest even among witches.

If even she could be easily read by Lin Que, then the high-ranking officials of Itogami Island, whose strength was inferior to hers, naturally went without saying.

"So... those guys are really all dead..."

A look of confusion appeared on Sayaka Ayase's face.

In this world, there are many people who look down on witches or like to use them.

But as the final straw for Sayaka Ayase, her target had always been the high-ranking officials of Itogami Island.

Now that her long-standing target had suddenly disappeared, even Sayaka Ayase couldn't help but feel a bit lost.

"If you don't know what to do, come and be my person."

Lin Que's voice came from the front: "My next goal is to conquer this world."

"As long as you follow me, whether it's raising the status of witches or eliminating those who use witches, it can all be done."

"...And the price?"

Sayaka Ayase glanced at her best friend: "Become a plaything like her?"

"What do you mean 'like me'!"

Natsuki Minamiya retorted: "I didn't become a plaything, don't imagine things on your own!"

"That's right, that's right, 'plaything' sounds a bit bad."

Lin Que echoed: "You should say, become my personal secretary."

"Personal secretary isn't right either, I never agreed to these strange things!"

"I understand."

Ignoring Natsuki Minamiya's words, Sayaka Ayase nodded after thinking for a moment.

"As long as you can do what you promised, I can agree to you."

"Very good."

Pulling Sayaka Ayase with his left hand and grabbing Natsuki Minamiya with his right, Lin Que activated the power of the realm and brought the two to the Tomb of the Deep Sea.

"To celebrate Itogami Island adding another great general, I have decided to hold a banquet tonight!"

Itogami Island, Lion King Organization branch.

A girl wearing a blue and white school uniform with glasses pushed open the door and walked into the room.

"I'm here."

Scanning the room, Shizuru Kanzaki walked to the window and looked at the black cat standing on the windowsill.

"You suddenly called me over, did something happen?"

"Yes, something unexpected did happen."

Through the black cat familiar, Yuiri Yendo, who was far away in Japan, relayed the news she had just received.

"Itogami Island has changed owners."

Shizuru Kanzaki: "?"

Itogami Island has changed owners?

Is this some kind of strange code?

"Don't space out, Shizuru Kanzaki."

Seeing that Shizuru Kanzaki didn't seem to react, Yuiri Yendo controlled the familiar to jump onto her shoulder and patted her face with its cat paw.

"This is not a joke, Itogami Island has indeed changed owners."

"...Even if you say that, it's hard for me to understand what you mean."

Putting down her school bag, Shizuru Kanzaki, who had been stationed on Itogami Island to attend school, rubbed her forehead.

"What is the situation with changing owners? In my impression, Itogami Island has been very quiet these past few days, and it seems there hasn't been any large-scale fighting."

If she had to say, the only thing that made her feel a bit strange was the strong wind from a while ago.

But Shizuru Kanzaki hadn't had time to investigate before she received Yuiri Yendo's message and rushed over.

The timing was so close, this matter shouldn't be related to the Itogami Island changing owners that Yuiri Yendo was talking about.

"Could it be... that the Japanese North North North Side is planning to replace Kensei Yase and parachute in a new director?"

"No, it's not that complicated."

Yuiri Yendo replied: "In fact, the former director of Itogami Island, Kensei Yase, is already dead."

"About an hour ago, the Fourth Progenitor, Lin Que, who was born yesterday, arrived at Itogami Island on the Tomb of the Deep Sea."

"As soon as he got off the ship, he killed one-third of the high-ranking officials on Itogami Island using unknown methods."

"After that, he immediately held a high-level meeting and became the current owner of Itogami Island."

"Killed one-third of the high-ranking officials?!"

A look of shock appeared on Shizuru Kanzaki's face.

The power required to kill so many people in an instant would definitely not be low.

As the head of the Three Saints, Shizuru Kanzaki had absolute confidence in her own perception.

If that level of power had truly appeared, she shouldn't have been unable to sense it.

"Yu, are you joking?"

"As expected, you didn't sense it?"

Yuiri Yendo's voice became a bit helpless: "Seeing that you hadn't reacted on your end, I thought you had also met with an accident."

"Now it seems that there is something wrong with that newly born Fourth Progenitor."
