Chapter 345

"I have something I want to talk to you about, can I take up some of your time?"

"No."

Kiriha: "?"

Why aren't you playing by the rules?

Facing Lin Que's unexpected refusal, she, who had already prepared her words, paused and fell into silence.

A few seconds later, she seemed to have given up on the idea of being polite to Lin Que and went straight to the point.

"You have broken the law, Fourth Progenitor."

Kiriha said: "Assassinating high-level officials of Itogami Island and taking Itogami Island as your own, this is the behavior of a terrorist."

"So what?"

Lin Que let out a light laugh: "You came specifically to tell me this, don't tell me it's to arrest me."

"This is the choice in the worst-case scenario."

Kiriha replied: "If you, the Fourth Progenitor, do not cooperate, we will lock you in the Prison Barrier."

"Prison Barrier?"

A subtle expression appeared on Lin Que's face.

"Liana, explain it to her."

"Yes."

Liana, who had been following Lin Que, took two steps forward and came to his side.

Because she was traveling as Lin Que's secretary, Liana had specially dressed up carefully before going out today.

Wearing a professional woman's suit, revealing her slender and beautiful legs, stepping on high heels, she exuded a mature aura.

Just standing there formed a sharp contrast with the relatively green Kiriha opposite, causing the other party to cast a look of envy.

However, as the party being envied, Liana did not show any mercy because of this, but spoke the truth without hesitation.

"Lord Kiriha, the Prison Barrier no longer exists. Even if you want to arrest Lord Lin Que, you have to prepare a new prison."

"Doesn't exist?"

Kiriha was stunned: "What does that mean?"

"It means exactly what it says."

Liana replied: "In order to let Nangong Nayue regain her freedom, Lord Lin Que personally went to the Prison Barrier yesterday and liberated it."

"If you are interested in the ruins of the Prison Barrier, you can go to the north side of Itogami Island yourself."

"Liberate the Void Witch? How is that possible!"

Kiriha couldn't understand Liana's meaning at all: "And if the Prison Barrier was really abolished, where did the prisoners imprisoned inside go!"

"Except for the Secretary Witch Sengu Aya, they were all dealt with by Lord Lin Que."

Kiriha: "?"

Dealt with them all?

Hearing this, Kiriha, who was still a bit nervous, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Unlike those high-level officials of Itogami Island who had no power to bind a chicken.

The Prison Barrier was a place for special prisoners, and no one who could be locked there was weak.

If Lin Que had really broken through the Prison Barrier and killed all the criminals inside, it would be impossible not to have made any movement like before.

Since Liana said so, the answer was simple.

The other party is lying!

"Although I don't know why you would tell such a full-of-holes lie, but..."

"Lie?"

Rolling the thin veil in her hand into a ball, Lin Que threw it into the trash can on the side.

"Why do you think Liana is lying to you?"

"Is it because this matter is beyond your understanding? Or is your vision just that narrow?"

"That is... how is that possible!"

Withdrawing her gaze from the trash can, Kiriha ignored Lin Que's mockery and subconsciously reached out to touch her face.

There was no obstruction, and she touched it directly.

Obviously, the thin veil Lin Que just threw into the trash can was the veil she had been wearing on her face before.

Looking at Lin Que in front of her, Kiriha's eyes were filled with shock.

"When did you take it?!"

"What a strange question."

Lin Que's laughter rang in Kiriha's ears: "Of course it was while you were talking to Liana."

"No fluctuation of magic power?"

Looking at Lin Que who suddenly appeared beside her, Kiriha's expression became even more surprised.

"Could it be... no, impossible!"

"Even the Dragon Race, which is on par with vampires as the pinnacle of demons, cannot hide from my perception simply by relying on physical fitness!"

"Fourth Progenitor, do you also possess an ability similar to 【Silence Breaker】!"

"I've done this much, and you still don't want to believe my words, but classify it as a special ability?"

Lin Que shook his head helplessly and reached out his palm to grab Kiriha: "Since that's the case, then you can experience it yourself."

"I can see it clearly!"

Because Lin Que deliberately slowed down this time, Kiriha finally reacted.

Silence Breaker activated, and all the sounds coming from the surroundings disappeared in an instant.

With her right hand in a hand-blade shape and infused with spiritual power, Kiriha launched an attack on Lin Que from a non-existent time.

Clang~!

A crisp collision sound rang out, and Kiriha, who had swung this blow with all her might, instantly lost feeling in her arm, and her body was shaken backward.

But just before she fell, a palm grabbed her fair neck and lifted her up directly.

"How about it? Are you willing to believe it this time?"

"..."

Kiriha didn't reply this time, but used her remaining left hand to grab Lin Que's palm, trying to pry it off her neck.

But obviously, this was just a futile effort.

The force acting on Kiriha's neck became greater and greater, and Kiriha, who was completely unable to breathe, began to have blurred vision.

Just when Kiriha thought she was going to die young, Lin Que's palm suddenly let go.

Boom~!

Sitting on the ground, Kiriha didn't care about her dignity anymore and opened her mouth to take several breaths.

A few seconds later, Kiriha, who had finally recovered, wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and looked at Lin Que in front of her.

"You... aren't you going to kill me?"

"Why would I kill you?"

Lin Que half-squatted down, reached out his right hand to pinch Kiriha's chin, and a pleasant smile appeared on his face.

"To be honest, I am very satisfied with you."

"Not only did you take the initiative to send yourself to my door, but you even gave me a reason to take action against the Lion King Organization and even Japan itself."

Although Lin Que didn't care about such things, it was quite cool to be able to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at others.

"Tell me, how should I thank you, Kiriha."

Kiriha's body paused: "What are you going to do?"

"Nothing, just preparing to expand my territory."

Casually placing a seal on Kiriha, Lin Que stood up and looked at Liana not far away.

"You take this guy to the Cornerstone Gate and let those councilors send a message to Japan."

"Just say that the Three Saints of the Lion King Organization launched an attack on me, and ask them to give me an explanation."

"Yes." ===== CHAPTER 347 =====
