Tina: Big Brother, My Butt Hurts a Little (5.3K)
She held a parasol in one hand, and although her exquisite face, revealed through the shadows beneath the umbrella, still maintained its composure, a deep weariness was evident in the depths of her eyes.
When she saw him come out to greet her, she walked towards him step by step.
"... Mr Mahiro, I've come to keep my appointment."
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, but you look very tired. Have you not been resting much lately? Do you want to take a nap here?"
As always, Mahiro spoke to the Seitenshi in front of him as if they were having a casual chat.
However, the Seitenshi shook his head and said:
"Thank you, but no need... The Tokyo Area is in imminent danger, I have no time to rest... Mr. Mahiro, I wonder if I won this bet?"
In recent days, she has ordered people to monitor the whereabouts of people in the Tokyo Area at all times.
Although the fact that the Monolith was about to collapse had been revealed, and a huge riot had broken out after the quota for entering the underground shelter was determined by "lottery," fortunately, the riot seemed to be limited to the city.
Many people began vandalizing and looting shops.
However, none of these people came to District 39 to seek revenge against Arcadia.
Even though they keep calling for the repeal of the Gastrea Act and for the expulsion of the Cursed Children from the Tokyo Area.
"Are you sure?"
Mahiro's eyes seemed to see right through the Seitenshi's heart.
The Seitenshi nodded seriously and replied, "I'm sure."
"Okay, before announcing the results, I want to show you something."
With that, he snapped his fingers, gesturing to Asaka. Mibu Asaka immediately understood, "I get it, Mahiro."
With that, she left.
After a while, the once quiet and busy street suddenly became noisy.
Following the sound, the Seitenshi's pale purple eyes widened slightly, revealing an expression of disbelief.
At the other end of the street, a large group of people, escorted by children, were marching towards them.
Without exception, all of them looked emaciated and disheveled, much like the Cursed Children had once roamed the Tokyo Area.
And the number actually reached nearly a thousand!
Looking around, all you could see were densely packed, dark heads.
Their bodies, hands, and feet were tightly bound with ropes, and they staggered toward this side, looking exactly like the black slaves who were sold and transported back and forth during the Age of Exploration!
"Mr. Mahiro, who are these people...?"
"You'll find out soon enough." Mahiro smiled slightly.
The large group of people who had been brought here saw the Seitenshi and their eyes lit up as if they had seen a savior!
"It is His Majesty the Seitenshi!"
"Great! It's His Majesty the Seitenshi! We're saved!"
"Your Seitenshi, please give the order immediately! Send the Self-Defense Forces to raze Arcadia to the ground! This is a stronghold where those Gastrea are hiding!"
"Yes, that's right! Those damn Gastrea dared to hide here, unforgivable!!!"
The cacophony of voices broke the quiet of Arcadia.
The children, whether they were busy in the shop, working, or just passing by, all stopped what they were doing.
They might be leaning on the windowsill, or standing to the side.
They watched the performance quietly.
Besides fear, their gazes were also filled with anger, and this anger even ignited the very essence within them, turning their pupils a deep crimson.
Unforgivable...
They had already sought refuge here to survive, but now these people are trying to take away their last refuge!
Upon hearing their shouts, the Seitenshi's mind went blank for a moment, and she swayed and almost fell over, but fortunately Mahiro caught her in time.
He then gestured to the children who were escorting them.
Swish--
A dark figure flashed through the crowd and beheaded the loudest person with a single stroke.
"Tch, if you're weak, then act like weaklings! You're prisoners now, don't you even understand such a simple principle?!"
Chapter 90 Tina: Brother, my butt hurts a little (5.3K)
"Tch, if you're weak, then act like weaklings! You're prisoners now, don't you even understand such a simple principle?!"
[Pluto] Rita Sosbeni, who was once ranked 21st in IP rankings, swung her blood-stained longsword, shook off the blood, and then sheathed it.
Her posture was dashing, and her actions were decisive.
But her petite face was filled with disdain.
"That's right, if it weren't Mahiro Brother Shinsuke's mercy, I would have torn you all to pieces right now."
This time, it was Louise Serazney, a seemingly frail young girl standing next to Rita, who spoke.
With a warm smile on his face, he appeared very kind, but his mouth uttered the most cruel words.
She is the 70th ranked IP among Tina's sisters, codenamed [Demon King].
The two children's performance drew envious and admiring glances from the surrounding children.
Dead people are commonplace to them; countless comrades have died at the hands of this group, not to mention that the dead person may have bullied them in the past, which gives them a sense of great satisfaction.
After that person was killed on the spot, the others also fell silent, not daring to make another sound.
Even though the heavy smell of blood kept flooding into my nostrils, and even though the man's unwilling gaze had not completely faded.
"Mr. Mahiro, I..."
The Seitenshi felt his mouth filled with bitterness, and even speaking was extremely difficult.
However, Mahiro smiled and said:
"Wait, it's not over yet."
He gestured to Asaka again.
Mibu Asaka understood again, took out a notebook she had prepared earlier from the thong of her kimono, and opened it to read:
"According to the investigation, all 932 (crossed out) 931 people present were confirmed to be from the Tokyo Area, and 400 of them were from the ' Japanese Pureblood Faction."
Two days ago, they organized a march to Arcadia to demonstrate, and during the process, they used homemade explosives, handmade Molotov cocktails and other dangerous objects in an attempt to break through the gate and enter the building, causing Arcadia economic losses of millions of yen.
They have all been arrested.
"H-How could this be...?"
Upon hearing this, the Seitenshi's face drained of all color, her delicate body trembled uncontrollably, and that familiar feeling of suffocation surged into her heart once more.
She felt as if her heart was bleeding!
The order to stay away from District 39 was given clearly early on, and people were clearly dispatched for extensive surveillance, so why did things turn out like this?!
"What can't you do? These are the scum of your regime. Do you think they're even worth saving now?"
"..."
The Seitenshi seemed not to hear Mahiro's words. He pursed his lips tightly and walked steadily towards the group of men and women, his gaze filled with sorrow as he stared at them.
"... Was everything you just said true? You... really did such a thing?"
"..."
At first, these people couldn't help but look away, not daring to meet the Seitenshi's gaze.
Until one of these people, a stubborn fellow, shouted:
"That's right, we did it, so what!"
"Yes, what can they do! Your Seitenshi, you don't need to plead for us. I refuse to believe these monsters would dare to kill all of us!"
"Yes! They're just Gastrea, we don't need these disgusting creatures to protect us!"
"Gastrea, get out of Tokyo!"
"Gastrea, get out of Tokyo!"
"Gastrea, get out of Tokyo!"
Like the herd mentality, once a leader emerges, a large number of others will follow.
But what they didn't know was that when they heard their cries out their true feelings—
The Seitenshi's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.
She slowly walked forward, biting her lip, and raised her arm to slap one of the shouting people hard.
Snap--
The crisp sound of the slap, like a pause, silenced the sound again.
The people who were just shouting slogans, and the one who had been slapped and staggered, stared at the Seitenshi in disbelief, their faces swollen.
"... How could you do such a thing!"
The Seitenshi's eyes were filled with tears, and his gaze was filled with disappointment.
Humans, for their own meager chance of survival, will not hesitate to push others into the Abyss.
When there is a special being around them, everyone will unanimously send that being to hell.
In times of peace, people might still try to hide their true feelings.
But now, when it comes to their own life and death, the ugly nature of humanity has been fully revealed.
She didn't believe such things at first, but now...
The Seitenshi didn't want to say anything more, but turned around and bowed deeply to Mahiro and the children.
"Feel sorry..."
He had barely uttered two words when the Seitenshi suddenly felt his vision go black, and then he collapsed into a strong embrace.
So warm...
If he could, the Seitenshi wished this were all a dream and hoped he could wake up soon.
"Matter Transformation: The Making of Gold"
Mahiro one arm around the Seitenshi, Makoto activated a matter-transformation magic with the other.
The targets, of course, were those prisoners.
As the magic circle appeared, a golden hue began to spread from the soles of their feet, and at that moment, those who had been shouting finally panicked.
They all cried out and begged for mercy.
The group of people, their faces streaked with tears and filled with fear, repeatedly murmured, "I'm sorry, I know, I really know I was wrong, I shouldn't have come here to cause trouble, please don't kill me..."
Mahiro shook his head. "You don't know you're wrong, you just know you're going to die."
Faced with the group's pleas for mercy, he not only did not stop, but intensified his efforts. Amidst their pitiful pleas and wails, the group of scumbags were all turned into golden statues.
Life has come to a complete end.
It not only benefits the world, but also Arcadia.
Such a large lump of gold should last a long time.
"Wow, Brother Mahiro is so amazing! Louise admires you so much..."
Louise Serazney was deeply moved by what she saw.
Meanwhile, Rita Sosbeni crossed her arms and muttered disdainfully, "Tch, what a pervert."
"Mahiro, do you need my help?"
