Apart from Being a Little Lecherous, He's Fine

However, after realizing what had happened, most people weren't so scared.

After all, Itogami Island has survived all sorts of terrorist attacks every day, so what is there to fear from the island nation's Self-Defense Forces?

Many people online have even started urging the Fourth Progenitor, Aurora, to quickly launch an attack and confront the Self-Defense Forces.

There are always plenty of busybodies.

Since the Fourth Progenitor is said to be the strongest vampire, many people want to know if he is as strong as the legends say.

In any case, whether they win or lose, these ordinary people won't lose out.

Because the live stream hosted by Aiba Asagi allowed Aurora to see the comments in real time, when the Original Fourth Progenitor saw those belligerent remarks, she grinned, revealing the signature canines of a vampire, and also gave a beautiful, cold smile.

"Hmph! If any country comes to their death, I wouldn't mind granting them their demise."

Faced with all sorts of bullet comments, my the Original emotions were stirred up.

Her behavior naturally sparked a frenzy online and attracted a number of followers who began to regard her as a queen.

While most people are simply influenced by their inherent goodness, many are also influenced by their the Original kingly aura.

Among these, the Original was especially sought after by many demons.

Just as the live stream on the Original's side was progressing smoothly, Ren's phone suddenly rang with a video ringtone.

The other party's number was displayed as an unknown number.

But Ren took it anyway.

In an instant, her long, pale green hair, like emeralds, cascaded down, and her large eyes were a jade color similar to deep amber. Her face was reminiscent of a cheetah, possessing a beauty and temperament that was both charming and resolute.

"My concubine, where have you been these past few days? I can't sleep at night thinking about you."

"..."

Hearing Ren say that, Jada, who had already prepared her words, suddenly found herself speechless.

Are you thinking about me? Or are you more interested in my health?

However, she was, after all, a true ancestor who had lived for thousands of years, so she wouldn't blush or have her heart race over something like this.

She paused for a moment, then smiled happily.

"It was indeed impolite to leave without a word before, but I was also tied up with important matters. Also, Ren, I'm calling you today to tell you some news."

Upon hearing this, Ren immediately became serious. "Could it be... that you are pregnant? If so, I will take full responsibility."

The Chaos Bride was taken aback.

The other girls around Ren also displayed a variety of interesting expressions.

Nagisa Akatsuki and Yase Kanon widened, Himeragi Yukina involuntarily clutched the music box, Kirasaka Sayaka looked as if the sky had fallen, Nangong Nayue sneered, and Aya Tokoyogi remained unmoved, only subconsciously touching her stomach, since her body hadn't shown any signs of movement yet.

"No."

The Chaos Bride was somewhat discouraged.

In fact, she had considered whether or not to have children.

After all, in the nights following the defeat, she would often be kept awake by Ren until two or three in the morning, and each time she would be stuffed full like a cream puff, making it hard to resist even if she didn't want to.

However, just as some animals in the world are becoming increasingly rare, she, as the progenitor of vampires, is not biologically so prone to pregnancy.

As for the so-called direct descendants within the Night Empire, they are nothing more than vampires who possess some of the essence and blood of the True Ancestor.

"In fact, I attended a special meeting a few minutes ago, the content of which concerned the Fourth Progenitor's plan to establish a nation on Itogami Island."

"The Sanctuary Treaty Organization —you should all be familiar with this organization, so I won't explain too much."

"In short, all you need to know is that this is a military organization that nominally maintains world peace. The three major Night Empire, including myself, and about two-thirds of the countries in the world have joined the Sanctuary Treaty Organization."

"Regarding the notification of the Fourth True Ancestor's establishment of a nation, we naturally have no reason to interfere in name."

"However, the commotion you caused on Itogami Island has already implicated the Holy Annihilation. News has also come from the island nation that you trespassed on Kaminawa Lake, stole the Holy Annihilation Relic, and used it. This has also prompted the organization to investigate and speculate about your identity. Therefore, a conclusion was reached through a vote."

"The Sanctuary Organization Army will be fully assembled in 24 hours, designating Itogami Island as a large-scale magical disaster caused by the Holy Annihilation and launching an attack."

"Until then, if you are willing to surrender to the Sanctuary Organization with the Holy Annihilation Relic, the Sanctuary Organization Army's attack on Itogami Island will be cancelled, and the legitimacy of the Fourth Night Empire will be recognized."

"Now that you've finished speaking, what are your thoughts?"

After the Chaos Bride finished speaking in a pleasant tone, she wanted to see Ren' other reactions, such as frowning or getting angry.

But Ren's actual reaction was not quite what she had imagined.

"That's impressive."

"..."

This reaction is like that of an outsider who doesn't care and is indifferent to the matter.

Not to mention anger, not even a trace of determination, sneer, or mockery could be seen in Ren's expression.

"Hey, can you hear me?"

"I heard you, so what happened next?"

"The Sanctuary Organization Army will be heading towards Itogami Island within forty-eight hours at the earliest, so you only have so little time left."

"Too slow."

"?"

"It would be even better if it could appear now."

"Uh... you don't seem to grasp the seriousness of the problem."

Upon hearing this, the Chaos Bride frowned slightly.

"In addition to the land, sea, and air forces of other major powers, the Sanctuary Organization Army, including myself and the other three True Ancestors, will likely also be deployed."

"Hurry up, I can't wait any longer."

"?"

Chapter 351 Aside from being a bit lecherous, he's nothing else.

After a long while, the Chaos Bride replied, both amused and exasperated.

"As expected of your reaction, it was worth voting in favor of you at the meeting."

"I can apologize for that, but as the king of the Night Empire, I should also bear some responsibility in international affairs."

"The legacy of the God of Misfortune is not accepted by the world, but you still have two choices: one is to hand over the legacy of the God of Misfortune and allow the Sanctuary Organization to reseal it, which will naturally eliminate our reason for being on the Itogami Island; the other is..."

At this point, the Chaos Bride gave a fierce laugh.

"If you can demonstrate power equal to, or even surpassing, that of the Holy Annihilation, then this matter will also come to an end."

The options are either to eliminate the threat of the Holy Annihilation without expending any weapons, or to let the entire world be shrouded in the shadow of the Holy Annihilation, or the power of Ren alone.

Certainly.

Aside from the first reason, the Chaos Bride did not mention the second reason in the Whispering Garden.

The next day arrived quickly, the day the Sanctuary Organization Army officially launched its operation against Itogami Island.

The mobilization of a multinational fleet is no secret to the world.

Some unsuspecting members of the public thought it was some kind of grand military exercise.

However, the Sanctuary Treaty Organization quickly released a pre-war notice regarding Itogami Island on its official website.

Itogami Island was defined as a weapon capable of causing large-scale magical disasters, Holy Annihilation Relic left by the sinner Cain. For the sake of world peace, after careful deliberation, the Sanctuary Organization Army ordered to strike Itogami Island.

Furthermore, in order to demonstrate humanitarianism, the Sanctuary Organization Army specifically granted the people of Itogami Island six hours to evacuate.

It sounds very humane, but for more than 500,000 people on the island to be in a car within just six hours is a complete fantasy.

After all, the only ways to leave Itogami Island are by sea and by air.

When the people learned of this, they thought it was an April Fool's joke, but as major media outlets around the world began to sensationalize the war, the people on the island finally panicked.

Fear, confusion, blame, and angry words appeared on various online platforms.

The online frenzy was even stronger than when the Fourth Ancestor announced the establishment of a nation.

"It's all because of the Fourth Progenitor! If she hadn't tried to establish her own country, Itogami Island wouldn't have been attacked!"

"Rumor has it that the Fourth True Ancestor is harboring a heinous criminal, and the Sanctuary Organization wants him. If we hand him over, we can live."

"Fourth Ancestor, wait for your people!"

"Win!"

The discussion on social media was extremely heated, with many people blaming the Sanctuary Organization Army's attack on Itogami Island on the Fourth Progenitor and that sinner.

Many people strongly demanded that the Fourth Progenitor apologize to the Sanctuary Treaty Organization, hand over all items identified as weapons of mass destruction, lay down all arms, and accept a thorough investigation by international organizations.

"Online opinion is somewhat one-sided. Sure enough, many people are afraid of dying when war comes. These people are despicable! The Sanctuary Treaty Organization is clearly fabricating fake news!"

Looking at the various comments online, Aiba Asagi was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode.

At this point, she was far from being as adept as the electronic empress in the original work.

"Fear of death is human nature, but the volume of voices online shouldn't be taken too seriously. If those people were truly so opposed to war, they would have already started protesting in the streets."

Ren closed his eyes to rest.

Before he transmigrated, he had seen plenty of these kinds of online propaganda battles.

Especially in countries that have been plagued by war for years, all misfortunes are blamed on the current government. Although the governments of those backward countries are not necessarily clean, they are often secretly instigated by Western countries with money, and those who receive the money work very hard, which naturally leads to violent conflicts and further chaos.

If the government is not capable enough, it can easily collapse.

"You mean the Sanctuary Organization is behind this?! Damn it! I knew that organization was no good!"

Now that things have come to this, even the usually composed young woman couldn't help but resort to swearing.

Then, Aiba Asagi had Mogwai start investigating the IP addresses of the accounts that were making the most noise. They discovered that all of their IPs came from overseas, and from the same location.

They repeatedly post the same content on every social media platform, all of which are inflammatory statements urging people to rise up in rebellion.

For the first time, Himeragi Yukina and Kirasaka Sayaka were witnessing the power of public opinion.

If these girls were to be portrayed like this online, they'd probably feel like dying.

"These guys, I'll find them all!"

Aiba Asagi was indignant.

Then I did a series of operations on the computer.

Within minutes, the girl vented her anger by posting all the private information of the instigators, including their home addresses, workplaces, and personal photos, online and pinning it to the top of her feed.

After those people were exposed, a large portion of the reactionary comments online disappeared, and some people realized they had been manipulated.

However, most people are still not optimistic about the Fourth Progenitor. All transportation on the island has been sold out, and the airport and port are crowded with people trying to escape.

Of course, some also believe that the Sanctuary Organization Army wouldn't dare to truly break ties with the Fourth True Ancestor.

After all, the power of the true ancestor of vampires is undeniable.

Although the Fourth Progenitor appeared out of nowhere, the fact that the authorities did not deny it is enough to explain everything.

"But the situation is still far from optimistic; the fact that the Chaos Bride called means she's serious this time."

"Even if she herself doesn't take action this time, there are still two other True Ancestors, plus a multinational joint fleet. Their conventional armed forces are enough to rival the full strength of one or two True Ancestors."

Nangong Nayue frowned deeply.

While the True Ancestors remain the most powerful individuals in the world, advancements in technology have led many to believe they are no longer invincible, and that with their powerful armies and firepower, there are ways to contend with them.

The Second Progenitor Eye of Extinction, once invaded Gozo Island, but it ended with the Second Progenitor's retreat.

Although there were no reports of the Second Progenitor being injured, the outside world and Gozo Island still believed that he had won the war against the Progenitor.

With the current combined strength of the Sanctuary Organization Army, they could easily annihilate any country in the world.

Even though Ren has performed very strongly so far.

But the odds of one person taking on at least two True Ancestors, plus a massive army, are extremely low.

"Is there absolutely no way things can change? Isn't the Sanctuary Organization's claim just slander?"

"Himeragi Yukina said anxiously."
