I, Izayoi Sakamaki, Joined the Chat Group at the Start Chapter 47

Unless Izayoi Sakamaki used his Organizer Authority, why would a Demon King be foolish enough to fight him?

And what the Demon King wanted to win was not merely Salamandra, but also No Name and White Night Yaksha.

Mandra understood this as well, but he did not dare to gamble now. If he lost, everything would vanish into thin air, merely making a wedding dress for someone else.

"Not enough? Then what if I add the Gift of a Pureblood Dragon?"

Seeing that Izayoi Sakamaki was utterly unmoved, Mandra gritted his teeth and brought out his most precious Gift.

Though Mandra looked strange, he was actually a direct descendant of the Star Sea Dragon King. He simply was not as pure-blooded as Sandora, and had not gained the recognition of the Simulated Star Chart, which was why he had not become a candidate for Northern Ruler.

Of course, it was also possible that he had given up his candidacy and yielded the opportunity to Sandora.

But Mandra truly did possess the Gift of a Pureblood Dragon.

"Do you think a bloodline is of any use to a human like me? If you gave me Void Star Taisui instead, I might agree."

Izayoi Sakamaki smiled mockingly, finding this self-satisfied Mandra utterly ridiculous.

Did this guy think his petty scheme could be filled with a mere Gift?

"Impossible. The Simulated Star Chart is the most important thing our ancestors left us. Even if Salamandra is destroyed, I will never give it to you."

"Is that so? Then please, vice leader of Salamandra and Sandora's brother, watch your Community be destroyed by the Demon King."

After ordering him to leave, information on the Simulated Star Chart—Void Star Taisui—surfaced in Izayoi Sakamaki's mind.

It was the Star Spirit of the hypothetical celestial body Taisui, the original Gift of the Star Sea Dragon King, Taisui Xingjun, and the founder of "Salamandra." It could seal the strongest species aside from Pureblood Dragons.

There were many races in Hakoniwa: vampires, Moon Rabbits, gods and Buddhas, and more. Among them, the two universally acknowledged strongest races were Pureblood Dragons and Star Spirits.

Being one of the strongest races himself while also able to seal other powerful races in battle was simply cheating.

This Simulated Star Chart would be devastatingly effective against those Asura God Buddhas.

Mandra, having been ordered to leave, did not depart immediately. Instead, he stood there unwillingly.

Only now did he remember White Night Yaksha, who had been imprisoned. If it were White Night Yaksha, offering up one-tenth of their assets might have allowed them to escape this awkward predicament.

But White Night Yaksha had already been sealed by the Demon King he had cleverly summoned himself, leaving her completely unable to help.

Seeking help from other Communities was obviously unrealistic. Setting aside whether they would risk themselves to help the declining Salamandra, Hakoniwa's rules stated that once a Gift Game began, no one could interfere by any means unless they were bound by an alliance.

But ever since Salamandra had unilaterally torn up its alliance, no one had been foolish enough to form an alliance with a Community that could betray them at any time.

Suddenly, a concealed voice entered Izayoi Sakamaki's ears. He paused slightly, then revealed an amused expression.

Baron said he had left, yet he was still watching everything happening here?

And even offering him advice.

"How about this? If Salamandra is willing to become No Name's Subordinate Community after the battle, I can act now. What do you say?"

Following Baron's suggestion, Izayoi Sakamaki thought it was rather good. It would both teach Salamandra a painful lesson and increase No Name's strength and influence.

However, Izayoi Sakamaki did not think Mandra, who valued honor more than life itself, would agree so easily.

"Become No Name's subordinate? Don't joke with me!"

Just as Izayoi Sakamaki expected, Mandra refused outright. He could not even be bothered to negotiate before staggering away...

Izayoi Sakamaki watched Mandra leave without caring much.

At the end of the day, Mandra was only a vice leader and could not make the decision. The one who could truly decide was still Sandora.

Turning his gaze toward the crimson figure and black-and-white figure entangled below, Izayoi Sakamaki waited quietly.

Since Baron had proposed this idea, he would see it through. There was nothing for Izayoi Sakamaki to worry about.

Under Izayoi Sakamaki's gaze, Sandora, who was fighting Pest, paused slightly, as if she had received some message. At that moment, Pest seized the opportunity and flung a cluster of ominous gray mist toward Sandora.

Yet it seemed to be blocked by something. The gray mist appeared frozen. Though it struggled with all its might to approach Sandora, it was powerless to do so.

It was as though the distance between them had been infinitely extended.

At the same time, Pest herself was enveloped by that force and could not move even half a step.

"Oh? The boundary between Limited and Infinite? Flashy nonsense."

The moment he saw this, Izayoi Sakamaki knew Baron had acted. The power of boundaries was truly impossible to guard against. If he did not possess the power to shatter Gifts, even he might have been affected by it.

While Pest was restrained by the power of the boundary, Sandora glanced in Izayoi Sakamaki's direction. After hesitating slightly, she looked at the city that had already become ruins. As if she had made up her mind, she transformed into a scarlet meteor and flew toward Izayoi Sakamaki.

"As expected of the person Canary and Kongming once trusted most. He settled it so quickly."

"But judging from Baron's attitude, he must also be deeply dissatisfied with Salamandra tearing up the alliance."

Rolling his wrist, Izayoi Sakamaki stood up. It was time to take over the spotted loli, and he could also bring Salamandra under his control while he was at it. If he did not do something like that, even capitalists would cry.

"Mr. Izayoi... Just now, I heard a voice..."

Sandora soon arrived before Izayoi Sakamaki. Without even taking a breath, she hurriedly spoke.

The Demon of the Earth, the Sin of the Sun, and the Spear of Piercing ### "Ah, that's right. Just as that voice said, as long as Salamandra is willing to become No Name's Subordinate Community, I will resolve this matter."

Izayoi Sakamaki waved his hand and interrupted Sandora. "What's your answer?"

"Please act, Mr. Izayoi."

Sandora bowed deeply to Izayoi Sakamaki and answered without any hesitation.

"Oh? You don't need to discuss it with your brother?"

"There is no need. I am Salamandra's leader. I am the Northern Ruler. I have that authority!"

At that moment, Sandora seemed to have matured greatly. Her face was resolute as she spoke.

"Haha, that's exactly what I wanted to hear."

A Contract Document appeared before them. Once Izayoi Sakamaki and Sandora both signed it, the Contract Document took effect. As long as Izayoi Sakamaki defeated Pest, Salamandra would become No Name's Subordinate Community.

"Now then, it's time to begin."

Izayoi Sakamaki snapped his fingers lightly, and countless golden rays shot from his fingertips—roughly two hundred of them.

"Actually, this riddle is very simple. Apart from Wesir, everything else was fabricated based on the Black Death. They were all counterfeit inheritances."

"Whether it was the clown who controlled rats and only appeared after the Black Death outbreak—the Pied Piper—or the so-called Ratin and Pest, they could all be ruled out."

"And that so-called storm, Schroter, was also an imitation disguised as the real thing."

"As for why White Night Yaksha, who symbolizes the sun, was sealed, it was because of the Sin of the Sun. The greatest reason the Black Death spread was that the sun entered an ice age."

"The Demon King Pest attacking this time is a deity that dwelled within history and was elevated through faith. She was originally an innocent little girl, but became the embodiment of the sorrow, rage, and unwillingness produced by those who died from the Black Death in their final moments. That was why she was able to ascend."

"This is..." Izayoi Sakamaki looked at the shocked Sandora and said, "This was not the feat of the one hundred and thirty children who died in Hamelin. It was the demon born from the feat of Eight Million Deaths."

"So... that is why she has the right to take revenge on the indolent sun, White Night Yaksha?"

When Sandora heard that this seemingly young Demon King bore the pain of so many people, she felt a trace of pity. But when she thought of her people and Community, she hardened her heart. "Mr. Izayoi, just tell us what we need to do."

"You only need to shatter the stained glass with the clown painted on it. Leave the rest to me. I'll have some fun with her."

Izayoi Sakamaki patted Sandora's crimson hair, then vanished from the spot with a single step. In the next instant, he appeared before Pest.

"Yo, spotted loli. Your riddle has been solved, so now play with me properly."

With a wave of his hand, Izayoi Sakamaki shattered the boundary imprisoning Pest, then provocatively curled his index finger at her.

"So you are the one who solved my riddle, golden-haired boy."

Pest was not surprised to see Izayoi Sakamaki appear before her. From the time of the meeting, she had already felt that he was no ordinary person.

Before attacking Salamandra, she had investigated them. She knew full well that the current Salamandra had almost no one capable of solving her riddle.

The only exception was this golden-haired boy.

"Well, as long as you avoid the traps, you can easily see the answer to the problem." Izayoi Sakamaki shrugged indifferently. "By the way, with the Gift Game's enhancement, you should be at the Four-digit level now, right?"

Pest's dark-red pupils flickered slightly. Izayoi Sakamaki was correct. The Gift Game's compensation was not merely that Divine Spark; it also gave their strength a certain boost.

Counting the Divine Spark she already possessed, her power had only been at the level of an exceptional Five-digit. But under the Gift Game's enhancement, her strength was now approaching Four-digit.

Yet after Izayoi Sakamaki shattered the force restraining her with a casual wave, she knew her current power might be far from enough.

"You really are arrogant, golden-haired boy."

Pest spread her arms, and the city that had been reduced to ruins was instantly enveloped in a pitch-black night. Neat rows of buildings rose from the ground.

The dark colors unsettled the heart, and the silent, deserted village revealed its original appearance.

"Oh? Is this your arena—Hamelin Town?"

"That's right. In this place that originally belonged to us, we will receive unprecedented enhancement."

Pest did not rush to attack. Instead, she floated high beneath the bright moon, looking down at Izayoi Sakamaki. "State your name, boy!"

"Heh, my identity? I'm merely a nameless human."

Izayoi Sakamaki wiped the tip of his nose with his thumb. Feeling Pest's aura rapidly rise, a trace of fighting spirit flashed through his eyes.

"Now then, let the battle begin, spotted loli."

Boom—

A punch powerful enough to shatter an entire mountain range crossed the distance and blasted directly toward Pest.

Feeling the fierce, domineering force carried by that attack, Pest's pupils shrank slightly. A pitch-black sphere enveloped her.

Crack—

The seemingly sturdy defense formed spiderweb-like cracks under that strike, as fragile as glass.

"Are you really human?"

How could a human possess such terrifying power?

It was absolutely impossible!

Pest hurriedly repaired her defense, her heart filled with shock. Even the Asura God Buddhas of the upper levels could not achieve such an attack, could they?

And yet such a powerhouse had appeared in the mere lower levels!

"By racial classification, yes."

Izayoi Sakamaki grinned and slightly increased his strength before throwing another punch.

"Pant... pant..."

Under Wesir's relentless attacks, Kasukabe Yō and Leticia were beaten until they were gasping for breath.

"Leticia, what do we do?"

Facing this nearly unsolvable power, Kasukabe Yō stood on the ground and asked Leticia beside her.

"Damn it. I never thought that after losing my Spirit Rank, I would not even be able to defeat a demon that had only just gained a Divine Spark."

Forcing herself to maintain her adult form, Leticia tightly gripped the knight's lance in her hand and bit down hard.

"What's wrong? Is that all you can do? Didn't you enjoy beating me up last time? Huh?"

But their opponent would not give them a chance to talk. With a swing of his iron staff glowing with cyan light, the ground began to tremble.

After all, Wesir was the Demon of Earth Calamity!

The earth was his home ground!

Izayoi Sakamaki's Charm, Crushing Ratin's Gundam ### Bang! Bang! Bang!

The ground split open, and countless dark-gray pillars of energy erupted beneath Kasukabe Yō and Leticia's feet. Every one of them was powerful enough to destroy a small mountain. "Move!"

Leticia hurriedly spread her wings, scooped up Kasukabe Yō before she could react, and flew into the sky to evade the strike.

"Tha—"

Before the two could catch their breath, an iron staff carrying the force to shatter mountains viciously swung toward them.

In her desperation, Leticia could only raise her knight's lance before herself.
