Chapter 184: Japan falls ()
Japan, Lion King Organization, Koushin Shrine.
A girl with long black hair wearing a black school uniform walked through the hall and came to the deepest room.
"How is it?"
Looking at the three figures sitting in the room, Kiriba Kisaki asked: "Has there been any response from Shizuru Kanzaki?"
Yuiri Yendo, who had the last contact with her before Shizuru Kanzaki disappeared, shook her head: "Same as before, no news."
"Is that so."
Kiriba Kisaki sighed: "No wonder I, who work at the Taishi Bureau, was transferred over. It seems this is the worst-case scenario."
From the time the news came from above until now, almost a day had passed.
During this period, the Lion King Organization had definitely used all the means it could~.
If there is still no contact until now, it can only mean that the Fourth Progenitor- didn't lie.
Shizuru Kanzaki was really defeated by him and captured and imprisoned-.
"What do you plan to do next?"
Kiriba Kisaki looked at the remaining two people in the room: "The Fourth Progenitor's notification letter was sent last night."
"If he didn't set off in advance, he should arrive in Japan this afternoon. Do you have any plans?"
"Unfortunately, no."
One of the Three Saints, Koji, replied: "The incident happened suddenly, we never thought Shizuru Kanzaki would take action against the Fourth Progenitor."
"It should be the Fourth Progenitor who made the first move."
Yuiri Yendo had a headache: "After Shizuru Kanzaki took the intelligence from me, she said she was prepared to communicate with the Fourth Progenitor."
"This generation of Shizuru Kanzaki has a relatively steady personality. If the other party hadn't made the first move, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to fight the Fourth Progenitor, whose strength was unknown."
"It's useless to say these things now."
Another of the Three Saints, Shirana, spoke up: "We should be thinking about how to deal with the upcoming Fourth Progenitor."
Yuiri Yendo's familiar had been active on Itogami Island.
So they could currently confirm that there was no large-scale magic power outbreak on Itogami Island yesterday, meaning the Fourth Progenitor had not summoned any familiars.
To be able to defeat Shizuru Kanzaki silently without summoning familiars, the strength of the Fourth Progenitor can be imagined.
When he arrives in Japan this afternoon to give an explanation, if there is still no countermeasure, maybe...
Bang—!
"It's bad! Lord Three Saints!"
The room door was suddenly opened, and a girl wearing a shrine maiden outfit ran over from outside.
"News from above, the Fourth Progenitor has arrived!"
"So fast!"
Yuiri Yendo frowned and looked at the others.
"It seems we don't have time to think. Let's set off first."
Although Yuiri Yendo and the others set off for the Japanese diplomatic consulate as soon as they received the news.
But when Yuiri Yendo and the others arrived, what greeted them was not the Japanese diplomatic ambassador, but corpses everywhere.
"They're all dead?!"
Looking at the familiar faces on the ground, Koji, who was usually responsible for handling the diplomatic affairs of the Lion King Organization, had an ugly expression.
"To act so decisively, that Fourth Progenitor didn't intend to talk properly from the beginning!"
"That would be slander."
A voice full of laughter came from above the palace: "I have talked properly with these guys, asking them to hand over Japan's sovereignty."
"It was they who rejected my proposal and insisted on asking me for an explanation regarding the sovereignty of Itogami Island, so I took action."
"Fourth Progenitor!"
Looking in the direction of the voice, Yuiri Yendo and the others finally noticed the figure standing on top of the palace.
"Why did you do this."
Yuiri Yendo asked with a solemn expression: "Not only forcibly snatched Itogami Island, but even directly killed the Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs."
"Your current behavior is no different from declaring war on Japan. Do you want to start a war?"
"War? Not really."
Lin Que replied leisurely: "What I want is just to expand my territory."
"If you can persuade the high-ranking officials of Japan to surrender directly, I can stop here."
"Stop joking!"
Koji couldn't help but shout: "You lunatic! How could we agree to such conditions!"
"You don't agree either?"
Lin Que glanced at him calmly: "Since you don't agree, then go die."
Ssh—!
A harsh breaking sound rang out, and a pitch-black shadow suddenly shot out from under Koji's feet, piercing through his chest.
· ·········· ·······
"Koji!"
Shirana, who was on the North North North Side, reacted and cast dozens of spiritual power threads, preparing to save him.
But just before that, the shadow spread from Koji's chest to his whole body, swallowing him.
"How is this possible!"
Kiriba Kisaki, who was standing beside Koji, widened her eyes, a look of shock on her face.
"Three Saints... actually died just like that?"
You know, the Lion King Organization is a force responsible for handling large-scale man-made magic disasters.
None of those who can serve as Three Saints there are weak; each one is an existence at the pinnacle of Japan.
To have such a powerhouse instantly killed, what kind of monster is the Fourth Progenitor standing in front of them?
"Alright, it's your turn."
Just as Kiriba Kisaki was falling into fear, Lin Que's voice came from above again.
"Surrender or death, pick one."
"...What do you say."
Yuiri Yendo looked at Shirana beside her: "Should we continue to fight this guy?"
"Do you have a way to kill him?"
"No."
"Then it seems there's nothing to talk about."
As one of the Three Saints, Shirana's family had been passing down spiritual power through the inheritance of dark consciousness since ancient times.
By Shirana's generation, the spiritual power in her body had reached a terrifying scale.
Coupled with the assistance of dark consciousness with a large amount of combat experience and superb spiritual power skills, her strength was among the top tier even in this world.
But even so, the dark consciousness that temporarily took over Shirana's body still didn't sense Lin Que's movements.
"We are not his match."
Shirana made a judgment: "Insisting on resistance will only result in being instantly killed like Koji."
"It seems our judgment is the same."
Silently sighing, Yuiri Yendo dispersed the spiritual power around her and raised her hands toward Lin Que.
"We surrender."
"A wise judgment."
A look of satisfaction appeared on Lin Que's face: "Lead the way in front, we're setting off for the Imperial Palace."
ECHO is disabled.
