"You insignificant No Names actually dared cause such a huge mess at our festival. Prepare to be severely punished!"

Inside the magnificent golden hall, the demi-humans who had just arrested Izayoi Sakamaki and Black Rabbit glared at them resentfully, as though they bore an irreconcilable grudge against them. Izayoi, however, could not have cared less. He casually fiddled with his headphones. "What mess? We're comedians specially invited by White Night Yaksha. The audience had a great time watching, didn't they?"

Seeing Izayoi like this, Black Rabbit said with frustrated disappointment, "Don't belittle yourselves like that... though it's not entirely wrong. But don't say it so righteously!!"

"You lot still refuse to repent. Guards!"

"That's enough, Mandara. Are you questioning my decision?"

White Night Yaksha's voice came from outside the door. Her majestic golden eyes fixed directly on the demi-human who was about to make a move.

"Lord White Night Yaksha, this is not the Eastern Region."

"And you are not a Floor Master. Passing judgment is not your job."

"This..."

With just a few light words, the demi-human named Mandara was left speechless.

"Brother, enough." The red-haired little girl standing before the throne, wearing a golden crown, also stopped the demi-human's actions. She slowly rose from the throne and looked at Black Rabbit, Izayoi, and White Night Yaksha.

"Little Garden nobility and all your allies, thank you for attending the Festival of the Fire Dragon's Birth. You have my deepest gratitude!"

"No one was injured in the building collapse, and Lord White Night Yaksha has funded the repairs to the damaged building. Therefore, I will not pursue this matter further."

"Heh, that's awfully generous."

Izayoi turned his gaze toward White Night Yaksha, who was unexpectedly willing to pay for their mess, and happened to see her rubbing her thumb and forefinger together.

Tch, so he still had to pay for it himself.

"Lord Izayoi!"

"Still, some people don't see it that way."

"Hmph."

It was obvious that the demi-human from earlier was deeply dissatisfied with this verdict, but he lacked the authority to object to the Floor Master's decision.

"Once this Festival of the Fire Dragon's Birth is over..."

Looking at Izayoi, White Night Yaksha seemed like she wanted to say something, but in the end, she merely shook her head and left.

She was probably worrying about who would take over for her now.

"Am I one of the candidates? Interesting."

Izayoi quickly realized what White Night Yaksha had wanted to tell him, though she had hesitated.

She knew that, like herself, he was quite skilled at destruction, but he was far less capable when it came to management.

"Lily, Jin... and Sister Black Rabbit..."

After White Night Yaksha left, the Floor Master, who had previously been solemn and dignified, seemed to return to her true nature as she happily ran toward them.

"Sandora, it's wonderful to see that you're doing so well."

Seeing the Floor Master run over, Lily and Jin slowly let out sighs of relief and spoke happily.

"Sorry. When I heard about the Demon King Attack, I wanted to go see you all, but Father fell ill, and there was also the succession ceremony. I simply couldn't get away."

"Don't worry about it. Lord Izayoi resolved all of that."

"Lord Izayoi?"

Hearing Lily's proud tone, Sandora froze slightly and looked toward Izayoi.

"You must be Lord Izayoi. My name is Sandora Teldoreck. You can simply call me Sandora."

"Sandora, huh."

Izayoi looked at the adorable little girl and subconsciously rubbed his chin. "Could it be that Floor Masters have to be little girls? The rulers of both the Eastern Region and Northern Region are little girls."

"Um... actually, I was only fortunate enough to become one because I'm a Pureblood Dragon."

Sandora scratched her cheek awkwardly. She still had doubts about whether she could truly be a good Floor Master.

"Don't get so familiar with me, you nameless scraps!"

Hearing Izayoi's joking remark, Mandara immediately drew his sword and slashed at them.

"Brother..."

"Heh. The important people are talking. What right does a lowly mongrel like you have to interrupt?"

Seeing Mandara recklessly court death, a cold glint flashed in Izayoi's eyes. He raised his right leg and blocked the strike.

Then he turned and delivered a spinning kick. Mandara felt an immense force strike his abdomen, and the organs inside him began to scream in agony.

"Pwah—"

He violently spat out a mouthful of blood and slammed hard into a pillar.

"Nameless?" For some reason, Izayoi's temper flared. "Heh heh, does Traitor's Banner make you that proud?"

"You bastard! How dare you insult Salamandra? Salamandra's dignity shall not be violated!"

Even after Izayoi knocked him to the ground, Mandara showed no fear whatsoever. Perhaps Izayoi's lack of force earlier had given him tremendous courage.

"Brother, stop. Lord Izayoi is right. We were the ones who unilaterally tore up the alliance agreement back then. You're being far too rude."

"Sandora, you're still too naive. You are now the ruler of the Northern Region. You shouldn't get so close to nameless people."

Seeing his younger sister stand before him to stop him, Mandara had no choice but to put away his weapon and speak earnestly.

"Looks like you refuse to repent. Of all people, you have no right to call others No Names, do you?"

Izayoi revealed a sinister smile and slowly raised his right hand, only for another hand to stop him.

"Izayoi, that's enough." The one who stopped him was White Night Yaksha. "The last incident hasn't blown over yet. If you do this, it'll be easy for people to target you."

"Tch, forget it. They won't have it easy this time anyway. Consider it interest."

Izayoi knew that White Night Yaksha was referring to the Perseus Community.

Although Thousand Eyes had failed to discover who had destroyed Perseus, Izayoi had used Organizer Authority here. With a little deduction, it would be easy to guess that Izayoi had been the one who destroyed Perseus.

"Thousand Eyes sure meddles a lot. Southern Phantasmal Beasts, Northern Spirits, Eastern Decline—everyone says that, don't they?" Mandara showed no fear toward White Night Yaksha and sneered. "Maybe this Demon King Attack was planned by you people from the Eastern Region because you're jealous of us."

"Meddles a lot? Perhaps that's because I'm the sun." White Night Yaksha paid no attention to the ant's mockery. "As for this Demon King Attack being planned by your Eastern Region... that is utter nonsense."

"Wait, a Demon King Attack?"

Suddenly, Black Rabbit seemed to have learned some astounding information. She looked around at everyone in shock. "Why isn't anyone else surprised?"

"Oh, that? White Night Yaksha told us earlier."

Chapter 93: The Vampire Progenitor's Mixed Bath with Men and Women ### "Well, since some people still don't know, I'll explain it in detail."

White Night Yaksha once again pulled a slip of paper from her sleeve and said with a serious expression, "At the birth of the Fire Dragon, comes the Sign of the Attacking Demon King."

"How could this be? Could it be..."

"There's no need to be too nervous." White Night Yaksha put away the note and glanced at Izayoi. "According to Thousand Eyes' latest intelligence, we have already confirmed the general identity of the attacking Demon King, as well as... the reason."

"Who is it?"

"The Pied Piper of Hamelin."

The moment she heard that name, Black Rabbit became agitated. She said in disbelief, "Nani! How could it be the Pied Piper of Hamelin?"

"Is there something special about that name?"

"Of course! The Pied Piper of Hamelin is the name of a community under a certain Demon King."

Seeing Kasukabe Yō's puzzled expression, Black Rabbit gritted her teeth and continued explaining, "That Demon King summoned demons from nearly two hundred grimoires and led a community called the Grimoire of Hamelin in ravaging all of Hakoniwa."

Even Jin had heard of this matter. "But... didn't that community lose a Gift Game against another community and cease to exist?"

"The Demon King is dead, so Hamelin should have lost its power as well. Come to think of it, Izayoi... what do you think Sin of the Sun means?"

White Night Yaksha recalled the two pieces of information Izayoi had sold to Thousand Eyes.

One was the community Pied Piper of Hamelin.

The other was the reason for launching the attack—Sin of the Sun.

Such vague hints made White Night Yaksha grit her teeth in frustration.

If you knew, then you should've said more. It's not as if Thousand Eyes would cheat you out of your intelligence fee, would it?

"Sin of the Sun? Could it be vampires?"

"Not likely. There are simply too many races that fear the sun."

Black Rabbit's unusual train of thought immediately led the answer farther and farther astray.

"Wait, forget that for now." Izayoi looked around and asked in confusion, "Where are Leticia and Hisato Asuka?"

"No idea."

"I don't know how long Izayoi and Black Rabbit are going to play around, but it's more fun to come out and wander around."

At that moment, Hisato Asuka, who had vanished without a trace, was eating food bought from a roadside stall while strolling about.

At some point, a tiny golden Little Fairy had appeared on her shoulder, lounging there comfortably.

"Uwah~"

"I'm not trying to eat you. I was just curious and wanted to be friends with you."

Looking at the adorable Little Fairy on her shoulder, Hisato Asuka handed her a piece of food and said with a smile.

"Uwah~"

The Little Fairy sniffed it with her tiny nostrils, and stars appeared in her eyes. She accepted the food and began eating.

"Oh, right. My name is Hisato Asuka. What's your name?"

"Asuka?"

"Mm-hm."

"Name? Pied Piper~"

Hisato Asuka froze. That did not sound like a person's name at all, so she asked, "Is that your name?"

"Com..."

"The name of your community? What's your own name?"

The Little Fairy continued gesturing cheerfully. "Pied Piper~"

Hisato Asuka sighed helplessly. "Forget it. Since we've come all this way, let's go have some fun at the exhibition. I originally wanted to invite Izayoi along."

Inside the deep cavern, lamps fueled by magic illuminated the surroundings.

There were also many visitors drawn by its reputation, admiring exhibits from various communities.

"There really are quite a lot of them, and every one is exquisite and powerful."

Looking through the glass-like Display Cabinets one after another, Hisato Asuka spoke enviously.

When would their community finally have the ability to hold an exhibition like this?

"Uwah~"

Suddenly, the Little Fairy tugged on Hisato Asuka's hair and pointed deeper inside.

"You mean I should go farther in?"

The Little Fairy nodded happily. "Uwah~"

"There's no need to rush. We'll get there eventually."

Hisato Asuka smiled helplessly. She could only give up on viewing the other exhibits and head farther inside.

Not long after she began walking, a Giant Armor, entirely crimson and several meters tall, appeared before her.

"What kind of community made this?"
