Chapter 505 Breath of the Storm - Nicole (Nicole Nicole~)

At the time, Kagura Chizuru was wavering about Cheng Tian's plan to resurrect her older sister using her own clone. However, the fact that she left her phone number with Cheng Tian showed that all Kagura Chizuru needed was genuine assistance; a push from behind would probably have been enough for her to accept it.

But the call came unexpectedly, asking Cheng Tian for help in finding someone.

"Who took them away?"

Cheng Tian didn't ask why they found him, but instead immediately asked about the key issue.

Because Cheng Tian clearly knew that Kyo Kusanagi's girlfriend named "Yuki" was actually the most crucial link in the Orochi's descent.

Kyo Kusanagi's girlfriend is the reincarnation of Princess Kushinada, who was sacrificed when Orochi first awakened 1800 years ago. She is the pure energy source needed for Orochi's resurrection.

Theoretically speaking, any member of the Eight Orochi could serve as a vessel for Orochi's resurrection. Extending this further, Leona, who inherited her father's bloodline, Iori Yagami, who, despite going berserk, could still withstand Orochi's blood, and Rugal, who relied entirely on his own body to sustain himself, all meet the basic requirements for a vessel.

However, among all the options, only Chris, with the purest bloodline, has the highest compatibility with Orochi. If he were to descend, the rejection rate would be the lowest, and the power would be the most fully preserved.

Snow exists as an energy carrier for sacrifice.

Her body wasn't ideally suited to be a vessel for the Great Serpent, but it was an indispensable key to unlocking the gate that sealed the Great Serpent.

The three heirs to the Sacred Treasures knew nothing about Yuki's background, including her boyfriend Kyo Kusanagi. Apart from Cheng, the only ones who knew were the Orochi Orochi's Eight Generals.

"It was Hell Band... but to be more precise, someone helped Hell Band escape from prison, and then very specifically kidnapped Kusanagi's girlfriend."

In this rush, I couldn't find any other powerful individuals to help, so—"

On the other end of the phone, Chizuru Kagura bit her lower lip, looking regretful.

Given the grudges and conflicts between the heirs of the Three Sacred Treasures and the Eight Orochi, Chizuru Kagura should have killed the Hell Band as soon as she captured them to eliminate any future troubles.

However, at the time, Chizuru Kagura was severely injured and weak, making it impossible for her to handle related matters immediately. Furthermore, after learning about Leona's existence through special channels, she knew that Orochi's blood could be inherited through heredity.

Therefore, before investigating whether the Hell Band trio had any immediate family members or close partners, she did not dare to act rashly, fearing that killing them would lead to a transfer of power to the Eight Heroes.

For the past few days, the Hell Band has remained unconscious, receiving heavy sedatives and being kept alive with intravenous fluids. They are awaiting the conclusion of the investigation before being dealt with.

But I never expected it to lead to this result.

In Chizuru Kagura's opinion, the reason why the Hell Band chose to kidnap Kyo Kusanagi's girlfriend was probably to use her as a hostage to threaten Kyo Kusanagi into handing over or destroying their sacred weapon, the Kusanagi Sword, thereby further weakening Orochi's sealing effect.

Little did she know that snow itself was the most crucial key to this resurrection ritual.

In addition, another fact that made her face even more gloomy was discovered.

"I suspect... that the one who helped Hell Band escape was a direct descendant of Breath of the Storm!"

Just stating this judgment took a lot of energy from Chizuru Kagura, because the mere mention of the words "breathing storm" made her involuntarily recall the fact that her older sister, Maki Kagura, had been brutally murdered and her body was never found.

If he hadn't learned that Kagura Maki's soul had unexpectedly entered the Yata no Kagami, his pain would have been even greater. "Oh?"

Upon hearing Kagura Chizuru's painful explanation, Cheng Tian raised an eyebrow, and then a figure immediately popped into his mind.

"Do you know something?"

Kagura Chizuru said urgently.

"I know a bit about Goenitz. While he is the head of the Eight Heroes, he usually uses his identity as a Catholic priest as a cover. In other words, if he has sons or daughters as direct relatives, there is a very high chance that they are church-related people."

If conventional methods fail to locate the person, then the possibility of someone hiding inside a church—a place where the police and authorities dare not conduct overt searches—is—"

"grateful!"

Before Cheng Tian could finish speaking, Kagura Chizuru's eyes lit up on the other end of the phone. After leaving a message, she hurriedly and decisively hung up the phone without mentioning how Cheng Tian should help her afterward.

At Cheng Tian's prompting, she did recall Goenitz's priestly attire, with his constant references to gods and deities—a demeanor that only a religious person could effectively conceal.

According to information found last year, at the age of 41, if one follows a normal life trajectory, there is a considerable probability that one will have a child or two.

Of course, direct bloodline is only one possibility. If it is raised from childhood, it might be possible to artificially cultivate a vessel for the blood of a giant serpent.

In any case, Chizuru Kagura wouldn't hesitate to use her darkest thoughts to speculate on the behavior logic of the Eight Orochi, so she included all of Goenitz's interpersonal relationships in the scope of her investigation, and focused on investigating people related to the church.

With the entire conglomerate mobilized, the speed at which this information was searched was extraordinary.

Just as Kyo Kusanagi, blinded by rage after discovering his girlfriend had been kidnapped, was running around Tokyo like a headless fly, Chizuru Kagura had already located a high-ranking Catholic priest named "Terenlo".

This man was a close friend of the late Goeniko, and about 17 years ago, he adopted a daughter named Goeniko.

After growing up, Nicole not only became a nun in the church, but was also given the title "Wind" by the church.

Well, the blatant information revealed left even Chizuru Kagura speechless. Apart from giving her "daughter" away to be raised by others, Goenitz had hardly concealed any relevant information. However, without anyone pointing it out, no one could immediately connect this 17-year-old girl with the Breeze Storm, which could cause natural disasters.

Having determined her target and location, Kagura Chizuru naturally contacted Kusanagi Kyo again, and emphasized the importance of informing Cheng Tianhou, before setting off with the Yata no Kagami.

However, before setting off, Chizuru Kagura hesitated slightly but still made a phone call to Iori Yagami.

Soon after, like a falling comet, Kyo Kusanagi crashed into the church entrance, carrying flames with him.

"How dare humans run wild in front of the gods! They have no sense of awe whatsoever."

A beautiful blonde woman slowly walked out of the church doors, which were pushed open by the wind, and looked at Kyo Kusanagi with the gaze of someone looking at an ant.
