Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki

Section 299

“It's quite ironic that the world's strongest nightmare is actually such a small child. Using such a young girl as a sacrifice isn't something you can do without any compassion, but—”

“However, this is the wish of Her Highness Lilith. ‘LYL’ is the system created precisely for this purpose.”

The chariot driver said with a tone resembling boasting.

“That's right, at least let's not make her sacrifice meaningless.”

Kusaki said, a conceited smile forming at the corners of his mouth.

No sooner had he finished speaking than two young staff members working nearby revealed expressions of terror.

“Chairman, the serpent's location has been pinpointed. It's currently thirty nautical miles from Itogami Island, at a depth of approximately three hundred meters.”

“Just as planned.”

The chariot driver laughed heartily as he disconnected the cable from the main monitor.

Kusaki also smiled faintly, looking down at Yume Eguchi, who was floating in the water tank inside the submarine.

“As expected, it's an ancient weapon lured here by Lilith. Even if it's called a biological weapon from the age of gods, it's ultimately just a magical beast.”

“Of course, if it weren't, it would be difficult.”

“We estimate the serpent's speed at twenty knots per hour. Based on this calculation, it will likely be captured by the special district guard's surveillance network within half an hour.”

The staff member trembled, his face filled with fear as he looked at the large screen.

“The ‘Nighthawk’ is ready for departure and can launch at any time, Chairman Kusaki.”

“Very good, just like that.”

“But are you really prepared to accompany me, Miss Kisaki?”

Kusaki glanced at the four-wheeled vehicle preparing to depart, then turned his gaze to the depths of the docking facility.

Standing there was a young woman, as if waiting for Kusaki.

With her long black hair and black uniform, she was Kisaki Kirihara.

“Chairman Kusaki, these are the orders from the Taiskyoku.”

“So please allow me to accompany you.”

Kisaki Kirihara bowed slightly, offering a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes.

Heaven knows how awkward she felt watching Kisaki Kirihara's monologue here.

After all, Chairman Kusaki thought he could achieve great things, but in reality, he was already a pawn abandoned by the Taiskyoku.

Of course, she was also a pawn.

“Is that so? Your Taiskyoku is certainly taking this matter to heart.”

“Rest assured, once I've completely tamed the ‘serpent,’ I'll remember your contributions and reward you accordingly.”

Kusaki's tone was like that of a dictator giving a performance, nodding his head with satisfaction before diving into the submarine.

Kisaki Kirihara curled her lip, then jumped into the submarine without hesitation.

The two thick hatches closed, and the narrow control room filled with silence. On the main display screen in front of the control seat, a three-dimensional image reflecting the underwater situation appeared. In the very center of the image, a huge shadow moved leisurely.

The pure white submarine began its stealth journey, and everyone inside was immersed in a sea of blue.

Kusaki gazed at the beautiful underwater scenery, a sinister smile appearing on his otherwise refined face.

“Now, let's begin.”

“Following the example of the past ‘Forgotten War King,’ let us deliver the hammer of justice to the Fourth Progenitor.”

…

“La Folia, I think I don't need to say much. You should understand what your main goal is this time.”

“Don't do anything unnecessary or create any trouble, understand?”

Inside the royal palace of the Aldegian Kingdom, a beautiful woman with long, silver-white hair, a gentle and beautiful face, and a trace of aloof nobility, looked at her daughter with eyes like emerald gems.

“I know, Mother.”

La Folia Rihavein, the First Princess of Aldegian, blinked her clear blue eyes and nodded in agreement.

“The main purpose of going to Itogami Island this time is to quietly find Aunt Shion and take her away from Itogami Island.”

“Try not to have too much contact with the Fourth Progenitor, and don't let the Fourth Progenitor become aware of our purpose.”

“It's good that you remember clearly.”

Queen Polifonia clearly saw the perfunctory answer from her daughter and exhorted her again earnestly.

“It was okay when Shion was still on that island before, because that island wasn't that dangerous. Letting Shion live there like that was good for her.”

“But it's different now. The Fourth Progenitor has awakened on that island.”

“And according to our reliable sources, the topic the Nerenike is preparing to discuss seems to be whether to designate Itogami Island as the Fourth Progenitor's territory.”

“It's not a bad thing for a Progenitor to be a ruler, but it's not necessarily a good thing for spirit mediums with high qualifications.”

“If Shion continues to live on that island, she is likely to be enslaved in the future.”

This was not Polifonia's scaremongering.

In fact, this is how society is now. The blood of spirit mediums among humans is extremely attractive to vampires.

Even if the Progenitor isn't tempted, the vampires under him will be.

Therefore, no spirit medium with a lineage or family would live in vampire territory.

“I know, I will be careful.”

“Princess La Folia, we are almost there.”

Just then, a sudden voice startled La Folia from her sleep. La Folia slowly opened her eyes, and the scenery flashing past the window directly entered her eyes.

“Are we there, Yustina?”

The silver princess turned her head, yawned elegantly, and asked softly.

“Yes, the plane has entered Itogami Island's airspace and is expected to land in five minutes.”

“Please prepare yourself. The ‘Witch of the Void’ will be waiting for you at the airport.”

Shaking off the dream she had in her mind, this was the clairvoyance of them spirit mediums. Things from the past and future sometimes appear in their dreams.

“I understand.”

The silver princess nodded lightly, moved her steps lightly, and went directly to the plane's washroom, turning on the faucet.

No matter how naturally beautiful a woman is, she won't be very pretty when she just wakes up.

Beautiful women need to dress up, need to groom themselves.

What she needs to do now is quickly touch up her eye makeup, wipe off the drool from the corner of her mouth, and at the same time, use cold water to clear her head.

“Buzz buzz buzz——!”

The plane trembled violently, and the scenery outside the window presented a rapid sense of falling. La Folia also returned to her seat and fastened her seat belt.

This plane is the top secret of their Aldegian throne, loaded with Aldegian's latest magical technology crystallization, and the speed of flight is extraordinary.

Not fastening the seat belt is really dangerous.

“Mother, even if you say so, I won't give up my dream.”

…

Itogami Island, military airport.

The private plane slowly landed, and the boarding ladder connected.

La Folia slowly walked out of the cabin door, and waiting for her at the bottom of the boarding ladder was Nangong Nayue, holding a parasol and wearing a short-sleeved gothic lolita dress, waiting for her expressionlessly.

“Welcome, Princess.”

“Thank you for your trouble, Your Highness Nangong.”

La Folia quickly walked down the boarding ladder and bowed slightly towards Nangong Nayue.

Although she is the First Princess of Aldegian, a magical technology power, Nangong Nayue is also one of the world's top attack mages. Nangong Nayue, the ‘Witch of the Void,’ is definitely worthy of such a salute from the princess.

“It's nothing, it should be so.”

Nangong Nayue nodded slightly.

“Next, your itinerary on Itogami Island will be assigned by me, and the meeting dinner with the Progenitor will be tonight.”

“This is the guard temporarily assigned to you on Itogami Island, Kirasaka Sayaka.”

Along with Nangong Nayue's words, Kirasaka Sayaka, who was standing next to Nangong Nayue like a standard, stepped forward directly.

“Sayaka? Then please take care of me?”

La Folia tilted her head, a pure smile on her lips, and extended her soft, boneless little hand.

Kirasaka Sayaka was also a little surprised, but she definitely didn't have any neglect, and quickly extended her hand and shook hands with La Folia.

“I am the one who should ask you to take care of me, but I will do my best to protect your safety, Princess.”

Kirasaka Sayaka's words were sonorous and powerful, and very firm.

Today, she, who should have been protecting Haramura Makoto, appeared here for a reason.

The reason is that her professional skills are not perfect, and she is still far from being able to protect Haramura Makoto and solve problems for Haramura Makoto.

So she was sent here today to accumulate experience at La Folia's place to practice.

“Don't call me Princess, just call me La Folia, Sayaka.”

“Please call me that directly, Your Excellency Nangong.”

Simple rhetoric.

But even if it's simple, coupled with La Folia's smile, it's easy to make people feel good about her.

“Then let's do that.”

“There is still a long time before the meeting with the Fourth Progenitor.”

“La Folia, is there any place you want to go?”

Obviously, Nangong Nayue, who is now traveling in her true form, has begun to feel a little impatient with this hot weather.

Although she didn't say it directly, she has already begun to urge La Folia to leave here.

“That's true.”

“We can't waste such a good time.”

La Folia nodded lightly, then turned her gaze to Nangong Nayue, a strange smile flowing from the corner of her mouth.

“Speaking of which, I heard that Nangong Attack Mage seems to be a teacher at a school. Why don't we visit here first? I'm very interested in the school where the ‘Witch of the Void’ personally teaches.”

“Oh?”

Nangong Nayue raised her small head and scanned La Folia with an appraising gaze.

“Are you interested in Saikai Academy?”

“I don't know what Saikai Academy is, I'm just interested in the academy where the ‘Witch of the Void’ teaches.”

La Folia calmly endured Nangong Nayue's cold gaze.

Nangong Nayue chuckled, then suddenly her gaze focused on the back of La Folia.

“Is that so, then let's go.”

…

“What's wrong, Your Excellency Anhe?”

The middle-aged man in a black military uniform and a straight posture looked strangely at the young man in a suit.

“I have to say, as expected of the ‘Witch of the Void,’ I feel like I was noticed by her just now.”

“Hahaha.”
