Chapter 516: The Seitenshi Training Plan

~7 min read 1,242 words

"Hmm? They actually ran off just like that?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow.

He had originally thought Hiruko Kagetane would make a move here to show off his strength, but he hadn't expected him to leave so easily.

In Lingyun's perception, the strength of both him and his Initiator was quite formidable; it could be said that among the Civil Security Officer pairs present, aside from Satomi Rentaro with his restrictions undone, almost no one would be his match.

"The good show is over, it's time for us to go too!" Lingyun stood up and was about to leave with Xiaona.

"Mr. Lingyun, please wait a moment." Just as Lingyun was about to leave, Seitenshi suddenly spoke up.

"Is there anything else, Your Excellency Seitenshi?" Lingyun turned around and looked at Seitenshi on the screen.

"I wonder if you have any time recently; I would like to invite you to be a guest at Seikyo," Seitenshi said, looking at Lingyun.

"As for that, I understand. I will set aside time in the next few days to visit Seikyo." Lingyun pondered for a moment and nodded.

Upon receiving Lingyun's reply, a hint of pleasant surprise appeared on Seitenshi's face: "Then I shall await your arrival at Seikyo."

When Seitenshi said this, Lingyun once again caught that fleeting, strange expression on Tendo Kikunojo's face. It seemed that during this entire commission, Tendo Kikunojo hadn't spoken a word; from beginning to end, it was Seitenshi who had been speaking, which was an extremely rare occurrence.

"Is this situation a butterfly effect caused by my arrival? It seems it's time to go and meet Seitenshi!" After replying to Seitenshi, Lingyun strode away from there with Xiaona.

After the screen connection was cut, Tendo Kikunojo spoke slowly to Seitenshi: "Your Excellency Seitenshi, is it not a bit inappropriate to invite such a dangerous person into Seikyo?"

"How could it be? Mr. Lingyun is the founder of Lingyun Town. Judging from the intelligence I have collected previously and the evaluation of him by the Cursed Children, those Cursed Children have been very well cared for!" Seitenshi said with a smile. "How could someone who can take such careful care of those children be a dangerous person?"

"But..." Tendo Kikunojo still wanted to say something more.

"And didn't you, wise Lord Kikunojo, previously suggest that I invite Mr. Lingyun to Seikyo?" Seitenshi asked with some confusion. "Though it seems Mr. Lingyun had something to attend to that time, which is why he didn't come!"

Because it was the first time her invitation had been rejected, and not much time had passed, Seitenshi still had a relatively deep impression of this matter.

"Regardless, if he is to visit, Seikyo must be well-prepared!" Tendo Kikunojo said.

"Yes, I will trouble you with this matter, wise Lord Kikunojo." Seitenshi said to Tendo Kikunojo with great trust.

"Leave this matter to me!" Tendo Kikunojo nodded.

In a small alley, Hiruko Kagetane and Hiruko Kohina stood facing each other.

"Hey, Daddy, why didn't you let me chop them all up just then?" Hiruko Kohina asked, tugging at the corner of Hiruko Kagetane's clothes.

"Because of that person who discovered us!" Hiruko Kagetane said.

"Are you talking about that big brother?" Hiruko Kohina asked.

"That's right, it's him!" Hiruko Kagetane nodded. "At that time, my intuition was frantically warning me that if I made a move carelessly, my end would definitely be miserable!"

"Is that so? That makes me want to chop him up even more!" A hint of madness appeared on Hiruko Kohina's face.

"No need to rush; we will have plenty of opportunities for such things in the future." Hiruko Kagetane stroked Hiruko Kohina's head and said. "For now, let us go and get our hands on that box that can open the door to a new world!"

"Yes, Daddy!" Hiruko Kohina nodded vigorously.

"The game is about to begin!" Hiruko Kagetane said slowly, his voice carrying a strange tone.

After saying this, he took Hiruko Kohina and quickly disappeared into the shadows.

Inside Seikyo, Seitenshi, having sent off Tendo Kikunojo, slowly sat down on the bed, her breathing suddenly becoming rapid. She took a few deep breaths to steady her mind, then removed a small earplug from her right ear and turned on her computer.

"Your Excellency Seitenshi, well done!" A female voice came from the computer.

"This, I'm still a bit nervous; I almost gave myself away!" A bitter smile appeared on Seitenshi's face.

"Well, there's no need to worry about that. Things like this are a matter of practice! At least the fact that you can speak up now is a good thing!"

Appearing on the computer screen was someone even Lingyun probably wouldn't have expected—Chen Jing.

"As the ruler of a region, you still have many things to learn, and you wouldn't want to be a mere vase forever, would you?" Chen Jing said.

"Yes." Seitenshi nodded.

"One more thing: in your current state, if something were to happen to Tendo Kikunojo and you lost his assistance, would you still be able to govern the Tokyo Area so smoothly?" Chen Jing asked suddenly. "Although I really dislike Tendo Kikunojo as a person, it cannot be denied that if it weren't for him, the entire Tokyo Area would, nine times out of ten, fall into chaos."

"This, how could anything happen to wise Lord Kikunojo?" Hearing Chen Jing's words, Seitenshi couldn't help but become a little flustered.

"Has Your Excellency Seitenshi never heard the saying, 'The sky has unpredictable weather, and people have fortunes and misfortunes overnight'? Who knows when something might happen to that person? At that time, the Tokyo Area will have to rely on Your Excellency Seitenshi alone!" Chen Jing stretched leisurely.

"This, this..."

Looking at the panicked Seitenshi, Chen Jing couldn't help but mutter in her heart: is it a bit too much to treat a girl younger than herself like this? After all, if you count it up, this young girl before her is only sixteen years old!

"Don't worry, I will try my best to help you! But at the same time, you must also work hard yourself!" Chen Jing said. "By the way, I'll send you some materials in a while; remember to read them carefully!"

"Yes, I understand." Seitenshi nodded vigorously.

"By the way, Miss Chen Jing, may I ask what your relationship is with Mr. Lingyun?" Seitenshi asked suddenly.

"As for that, it's a secret!" Chen Jing gave Seitenshi a mysterious smile and then cut off the communication.

"Whew, training a little girl into a qualified regional ruler—Ruoxi, you really do set me difficult problems!" Chen Jing, having cut off the communication, stretched and said.

"I don't see you teaching with any less enthusiasm." Ruoxi's figure appeared beside Chen Jing.

"That's because there's no other way. As Seitenshi's Assistant Official, although Tendo Kikunojo stands on the opposite side of Lingyun, it cannot be denied that he plays a huge role in the Tokyo Area. Under these circumstances, Lingyun might eventually let him off the hook." Chen Jing said. "And what I am doing now is merely erasing the conditions for letting him off. Most importantly, didn't you agree with my approach?"

"That's right, so please do your best!" Ruoxi said with a giggle, then disappeared again.

"Tsk, I really don't know what this little girl is thinking." Chen Jing shook her head and then began to organize the materials prepared for Seitenshi.
