Chapter 377
When Arisugawa saw Luo Mio and Ikki approaching, he smiled and asked, "Where are they?"
Luo Mio shrugged and sat down next to Arisugawa.
"They're still sleeping. I wonder what they were doing all night."
After saying that, Ikki also took his and Luo Mio's breakfast vouchers and came over.
At this moment, Ikki seemed to have noticed something, and looked at Saikyo Neine, asking in confusion.
"What's wrong, Teacher Saikyo? You look like you haven't slept well."
Saikyo Neine's eyes and face showed signs of fatigue.
Upon hearing Ikki's voice, Saikyo Neine snapped out of her daze and smiled at Ikki.
"It's nothing, I just have some trouble sleeping."
Upon hearing Saikyo Neine's words, Shinguji Kuroko, who was standing to the side, was also taken aback for a moment, then revealed a playful smile and said in a teasing tone.
"Ning Yin was excited all night last night."
He was grinning foolishly while muttering "Call me..."
However, before Shinguji Kuroko could finish speaking, Saikyo Neine realized what was happening and quickly interrupted Shinguji Kuroko.
"Little Black, what are you saying here!"
"What? You were the one who kept bragging to me last night."
Upon hearing this, Saikyo Neine's face flushed slightly.
"What are you saying? I didn't say anything."
Seeing Saikyo Neine's appearance, Ikki also revealed a smile. He knew without even thinking that it was related to Luo Mio.
At this moment, Luo Mio was also slightly taken aback, and then glanced around.
Numerous inexplicable gazes were fixed on Luo Mio and Ikki, with Luo Mio receiving the most attention.
Moreover, most of these gazes were filled with awe and reverence.
Shinguji Kuroko also noticed Luo Mio's expression and chuckled as she spoke.
"It seems that you're now completely famous, Miohua."
He single-handedly destroyed "PSYON" and the "Pacific Fleet," instantly turning the tide of the battle from despair. Such formidable strength attracted a huge number of fans and admirers.
And just then...
Several stunningly beautiful young women walked out of the cafeteria, immediately causing a stir inside.
When Luo Mio and her group looked over, they found that it was Touka, Stella, and their group who had already woken up.
Sora, rubbing his eyes, was being led by Touka the whole way, looking like he hadn't slept well.
Similarly, Stella and Touka also saw Luo Mio and the others.
Arriving at Luo Mio's side, Touka also led Kong to sit beside Luo Mio.
Stella sat next to Ikki, while Shinguji Naru sat directly on her mother, Shinguji Kuroko.
Seeing Kong's appearance, Luo Mio rubbed her little head.
After chatting with Touka and the other women for a while, we had breakfast.
——
"Take care on your journey."
Touka looked at Luo Mio and said softly.
Luo Mio nodded.
"Okay, I understand."
Then Touka took out something that looked like a talisman from his pocket and placed it in Luo Mio's hand.
"This was prepared for you by the headmistress."
Luo Mio took the amulet, gripped it tightly, and then smiled at Touka.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, Luo Mio waved goodbye to Touka, Saikyo Neine, Shizuku, and the others.
"Xiao Kong! Remember to be online tonight."
"Ah! I understand."
Luo Mio, holding Kong's hand, left with Ikki and Stella and disappeared into the street.
——
Edelberg.
At Edelweiss's home.
In the room, a Void Fissures suddenly appeared.
With a flash, Luo Mio and her group emerged from within.
"I didn't expect it to actually teleport here."
Stella looked at the familiar layout of Edelweiss's home and sighed with emotion.
Ikki, who was standing to the side, also showed a surprised expression.
He truly hadn't expected that Kong's abilities could allow them to teleport directly from the Far East to Edelberg, a place so far away.
However, Ikki was slightly taken aback when he saw the empty room.
"Is Miss Edelweiss not home?"
Kong nodded.
"Yes, he said he was going to resolve some issues, and he left yesterday."
Luo Mio nodded thoughtfully, then looked outside as if she sensed something.
Why are there so many people at the foot of the mountain?
Upon hearing Luo Mio's question, Kong also showed a very troubled expression.
Kong also spoke up.
"Since Edward isn't here, let's go and take care of some annoying guys first."
After saying that, Kong opened another Void Fissures.
Subsequently, led by Sora, Luo Mio, along with Ikki Stella, arrived at a small village at the foot of Mount Edelberg.
However, unlike the ordinary villages one might imagine, the scenery in the village was quite subtle and peculiar. From the inside, it didn't look like the tranquility one would expect from a typical rural village.
On the village roads, one could see mostly burly men, wielding weapons that looked like their Device, with unusually ferocious eyes.
Of course, there are also some women.
Seeing this, Stella in amazement.
"The scenery here hasn't changed at all."
Ikki, standing to the side, also nodded.
Even Kong, who was holding Luo Mio's hand, frowned slightly upon seeing this scene and said with great impatience.
"These people are really annoying."
Edelweiss's home was, in a sense, an empty home.
How could Kong not be angry to have such a bunch of annoying guys living under his own house?
Luo Mio looked around and then asked Stella and Ikki.
"Was there this many people when you came to Edelberg last time?"
The two shook their heads.
Ikki glanced around and then spoke to Luo Mio.
"When Stella and I came here last time, there weren't this many people."
"It's probably because of the 'Puppet King' back then; the number of people was far less than it is now."
When Ikki mentioned "Puppet King" Orgel, Stella's face clearly showed a hint of dislike and gloom.
Upon hearing Ikki's words, Luo Mio nodded thoughtfully.
Edelberg was originally territory of Estonia, a dependent state of the "League".
Fifteen years ago, a very significant event occurred that nearly triggered World War III.
One of the major powers of the "Alliance," the Russian Empire, invaded Estonia, which had not yet joined the "League." Out of its antagonistic attitude towards the "Alliance," the "League" sent troops to confront the Russian Empire's army without Estonia's permission.
But ultimately neither side achieved anything.
Because in the battlefield of Estonia, a young girl, dressed in a dazzling white Valkyrie outfit, wields two silver swords in the darkness.
The girl then single-handedly annihilated an army of up to 300,000 men from both the "League" and "Alliance" sides.
And this girl is none other than "Twin Wings" Edelweiss.
Following this incident, the name "Twin Wings" Edelweiss became known throughout the world. Similarly, the two major world powers, the "League" and the "Alliance," simultaneously issued international arrest warrants for Edelweiss.
However, all their efforts were rendered futile in the face of Edelweiss's formidable strength and unparalleled swordsmanship.
As time went on, the two major powers not only failed to capture a mere criminal, but also made Edelweiss's reputation grow even stronger.
Over the next decade, Estonia experienced numerous coups and changes of power.
At the same time that Estonia announced its accession to the "League", the Estonian government also made a statement.
That is to abandon the territory where Edelweiss is located, Edelberg.
The news caused an uproar around the world.
Similarly, Edelweiss's name has attracted many overconfident individuals who want to defeat Edelweiss and achieve fame overnight.
The guys who are now standing in front of Luo Mio and the others are those who overestimate their abilities.
"Beep beep beep—!"
Just then, a horn blared behind Luo Mio.
When everyone looked over, they heard it.
"Where did this little brat come from! Don't stand in the middle of the road blocking my way!"
"That's right! If you don't want to die, get out of Gail's way!"
A burly man carrying a huge Zanbatou appeared behind the group, leading a dozen thugs in heavily modified off-road vehicles and motorcycles.
Seeing their expressions, Kong's own expression darkened slightly.
Another batch of overconfident fools have arrived.
Chapter Twenty: "I'm very sorry, but this place... needs to be cleared out today."
Seeing this group of about a dozen people who were no different from thugs, or rather, who were thugs themselves.
Luo Mio also raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the group of thugs.
After a brief assessment, the burly man leading the group, named Gale, appeared to be at most C-Rank Knight.
But Shizuku called a 'Tyrannosaurus Rex Stella,' wouldn't let them get away with it; instead, she glared back fiercely.
"The road is so wide, can't we just go to the side?"
"Besides, this is a village. Driving such a noisy car like this, don't you have any manners?"
Seeing Stella speak to him so ruthlessly, the burly man's eyes widened, and he grinned, revealing a slightly ferocious expression.
Huh?
Stella's words also stirred up the other thugs.
"Damn it, what nonsense are you talking about, girl?!"
