Cong Yu's Life of Toil / Severed Source: Radiance

Cong Yu: "But I don't care. Whatever benefits you squeeze out or the profits you gain from this opportunity, it's all yours as the Purge Squad."

Captain: "Good duck, good duck--"

Cong Yu: "My suggestion is, before making an example of someone, try asking the Minister of Defense for some benefits... This will make it easier for the rest of you to set prices."

Captain: "Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"

Amidst this wicked exchange—one that Takemikazuchi couldn't understand and that Snow Woman scoffed at—the two exchanged a glance and then both let out sinister laughs.

"Hehehe--"

Chapter 503 Cong Yu's Busy Life

Minister of Defense-- Umekawa Toda, Umekawa!

Born in...

"Boom!!!"

The narrator needs no introduction.

The Defense Minister... exploded! (Scattered!)

"..."

"Croak!"

"Namo San! What an enormous Giant Serpent!"

Amidst the gasps of the magical girls who are bodyguards of the Minister of Defense, Cong Yu, hidden in the shadows of the train, clasped her hands together.

The Commander-in-Chief had previously contacted the Minister of Defense, and it seemed he was unwilling to give a single penny or make any promises.

So that's how he died.

Of course, even if you pay the money, you're still doomed.

"Domo, King of Wind City desu"

Cong Yu introduced himself in this way, and then offered his condolences to the deceased Minister of Defense... So, was offering condolences to a corpse really necessary?

Meanwhile, Takemikazuchi, perched on Cong Yu's shoulder, clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect. "I am Takemikazuchi desu, Sayonara!"

At this very moment, Cong Yu was working with the bored Takemikazuchi... in a clandestine attempt to assassinate the Minister of Defense.

Yes, it was an assassination.

Although the commotion was significant, as long as Cong Yu didn't directly identify himself, it could still be considered an assassination...

Wow! That solves it, right?

Takemikazuchi said this, he was surprisingly not eating anything while nestled in his chair... After all, it seemed like Takemikazuchi did nothing but eat and sleep.

Eat your fill, then sleep; sleep your fill, then eat.

I was so annoyed by the magical girl that I ate a ton of food, and now I'm just tired and stuffed.

That Takemikazuchi is really lame.

"It's temporarily resolved... temporarily."

Cong Yu responded in this way because... Mayor Sang wasn't actually one of the cabinet members who caused the bombing.

What? You're asking what Cong Yu was thinking? Why does she think it was someone from the cabinet who bombed it? Why would they bomb Mayor Sang for no reason?

(Mayor: Waaaaah, this is so hard for me.)

(Lolicon Doctor: Hey! Great, my opponent has arrived! You're my next opponent in the Resurrection Match! Let's fight!)

(Mayor: Resurrection Match?)

(Lolicon Doctor: Hahaha! That's right, whoever wins gets to revive. Looking at your office worker appearance, you can't possibly be my match... When I revive, I'm going to play with lots of little lolis!)

(Mayor:!!!)

(Narrator: The mayor of Central City doesn't consider himself a good person. But even through just a few words of conversation, he understood one thing--)

(Narrator: The person before him is someone he must defeat!)

(Narrator: But as the other side said, he had never fought in a boxing match before... and was destined to lose.)

(Narrator: But if he loses, what will happen to those innocent children? How will this pervert treat them?)

(Narrator: The mayor didn't know, but luckily... he soon felt it; his shoulder was patted by a dark hand.)

(Black Mamba: Man! Leave this to me!)

--

"Beep... beep..."

"..." In a daze, a very thin-looking man opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling.

.

Despite being in excruciating pain, his memory was stuck on a scene where a boxer who called himself "Black Mamba" elbowed a perverted pedophile flying through the air.

Therefore, Mayor Sang successfully won the Resurrection Match for free.

Has it been resurrected?

No, haha... it really wasn't a resurrection.

So was it a dream?

"..." The mayor thought to himself, recalling the explosion, and after struggling a couple of times, he realized that he couldn't sit up at all.

And I'm getting more and more tired.

"Hmm?"

"The patient is awake!"

"Hello!"

He heard a commotion around him, turned his head and saw that he was in a hospital room surrounded by Doctor.

Beside him was his mother, whose eyes looked red, as if something was wrong.

Then, with the mayor's help, he finally managed to lift his head and look at a man who looked like Doctor.

Even so, he was already completely exhausted.

So sleepy.

--

"..."

"..." When the mayor woke up again, there were only three people in his hospital room... a Doctor and the captain of the Purge Squad.

She was the one he chose, a magical girl without blood or tears.

The other one was a boy I didn't recognize.

Then, as the captain gave the Doctor a wink, the Doctor walked out of his ward and nodded to him.

"Hello, Mayor of Central City..."

As Cong Yu spoke, looking at the mayor who had unexpectedly survived, he declared, "I am the King of Wind City."

For a moment, the mayor's pupils contracted, then he immediately showed a puzzled expression, before speaking in a hoarse voice, "You... cough cough..."

Cong Yu didn't seem to care about the other person's extremely hoarse voice, and placed the water the Doctor had prepared on the table next to him.

"..."mayor. "..."

Although it's a bit ridiculous, if the other party really is the King of Wind City, it's indeed impossible for him to feed him water.

Left with no other choice, he could only prop himself up, panting, and drink some water to moisten his throat. "Cough, cough."

Then the mayor sighed, "In the end, it was the Monster King who saved me? How ironic."

Cong Yu: "???"

Captain: "???"

Cong Yu shook her head, distancing herself, "I didn't save you. You just happened to be lucky enough to survive."

While it's possible to claim that one's savior is acceptable, Cong Yu wouldn't stoop to... or rather, wouldn't stoop to telling such a lie.

"But what do you mean by sarcasm?"

"..." The mayor paused for a moment, glanced at the chief captain, then at Cong Yu, and after thinking for a while, he understood the specific situation.

The Purge Squad were confronted, and they surrendered.

That makes sense... After all, once the "Anti-King Project" is discovered by the true king, the only outcome will be death.

Seeing that the captain is still alive is already quite comforting for him.

"So, you want to know... the truth about the explosion?"

As the mayor spoke, seeing Cong Yu nod matter-of-factly, he began to recount the events of that day. "The talks broke down."

The mayor's voice carried a hint of resentment.

"To be precise... that day, several guys dressed very conservatively suddenly appeared in my office, calling themselves 'The Anti-King' and saying they wanted to do something for me."

"They can help me implement the Anti-King Project from the top down, but they want the Phantom Image Technique from me."

"My understanding of the Phantom Image Technique is limited to the list of plans submitted by Hase (Captain-Commander)... Even if I knew more, I couldn't possibly cooperate with someone of unknown origin, so I started loudly calling for security."

"Then..."

"The other party said, 'What a pity, the talks fell through,' and then snapped their fingers... Next, I felt a huge shockwave and intense heat, which was probably the feeling of an explosion, and then I knew nothing more."

As he said this, the mayor tried to move his body, but then felt pain again... In the end, he obediently lay there.

"Anti-King...?"

Cong Yu pondered this, somewhat puzzled, and began to wonder why there were so many people in the world who were tired of living.

Just then, the captain's phone rang. She took it out and looked at it... then her pupils contracted.

"The Purge Squad is in trouble!"

"..." Huh? Damn, I just killed the Minister of Defense not long ago, sent Takemikazuchi to Snow Woman's place to play, and then came to see the mayor who I heard had woken up.

Now the Purge Squad has run into trouble again?!

Is it really necessary to be this busy?!

Chapter 504 Source Severance - Radiance

When Cong Yu and the captain arrived, the underground passage behind the Purge Squad appeared to have collapsed.

The gravel basically blocked the entire passage.

The communication bell for communicating with the squad is still working, but no one answers when I press it... Are they all dead?

With these concerns in mind, the two bypassed the building and headed towards the main entrance.

Arriving at the place related to accepting the commission,

It looks like Purge Squad from some company's reception area, behind the main entrance...

The members of the Purge Squad were mostly in the main hall, and almost all of them were injured.

Ambulances were coming and going, carrying away some researchers who looked seriously injured... but there didn't seem to be any magical girls who had sacrificed themselves.

At this moment, everyone saw Cong Yu and the captain.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief...

"Commander-in-Chief, you're back."

"Great... that spell has been stolen."

"It's blown up! The underground area has been blown up!"

These magical girls were saying that.

Behind them, many magical girls were digging through the blocked passageway, rescuing people from the collapsed basement.

"So, what exactly happened?"
