One minute ago
After Theresa returned, Himeko wanted to find Theresa countless times to ask her the truth about why her father died in North America.
But whenever she thought of Theresa's incredibly pale face that day, Himeko suppressed the thought.
Theresa kept the truth from Himeko because she knew it would hurt Himeko.
Himeko wanted to know the truth, but at least for now, she felt it was inappropriate to cause Theresa any trouble at this time.
After finally finishing her work today, Himeko stretched and asked a question in the empty space beside her.
"Ghost, are there any other documents to process?"
"Go take a break, have you been out of sleep for days?"
In a place that should have been empty, the ghost's figure suddenly appeared in the room.
She looked at the faint dark circles under Himeko's eyes and said helplessly.
"Also, I'd like to add that if you want to know something, ask Theresa yourself. After all..."
"—Regarding information about Murata Ryusuke, I, an A-rank Valkyrie, am just like you, not qualified to inquire."

PS1: There is no such thing as an unlimited bounty. I dared to open one last time because I was almost paid off and it was January, so everyone didn't have much money left.
There are still 22 chapters left, and I'm going to open an unlimited number... Is it really worth it to owe so many chapters and not finish them all?
It was supposed to open in mid-February, and everyone had tons of items I wanted to offer as a bounty – it would have been awesome! The problem was…
I'm really going to be exhausted later, but Dark doesn't have to, really.
PS2: Stop guessing, there really isn't Toma.
Chapter 466. You're going to resurrect my ass!
What could Himeko say besides chuckle twice at the ghost's explanation?
The A-rank Valkyries in the intelligence department certainly have much higher authority in intelligence matters than the A-rank Valkyries on the front lines. Ghost's explanation is just an excuse that both sides understand, and she never intended to deceive Himeko.
Oh well, there's no need to rush this anyway.
Theresa is recuperating in her dormitory. Himeko can ask her about it after she has recovered.
As for receiving false information—Himeko felt that given their friendship, there would still be some trust between them.
With Theresa's current intelligence, she could easily come up with a dozen versions of lies without batting an eye.
But she didn't do that; instead, she kept delaying the date to tell Himeko the truth.
This only shows that Theresa did not want to deceive Himeko on this matter.
She could simply wait quietly; why should she press others for answers?
However, after the atmosphere between the two suddenly became awkward, their gazes toward each other suddenly sharpened.
The next second—Himeko and the ghost simultaneously made an evasive maneuver, avoiding a thug that extended from a magic circle.
"Oh? Interesting."
Even though his first attack missed, Fumiki Kanade, who used the wizard's ring to cast a spell, was not angry.
He looked indifferently at Himeko Murata and the ghost, and raised his right hand slightly once more.
【Bind (Binding Ring)】
Even though Himeko had taken precautions beforehand, how could she possibly mount a proper counterattack against magic without knowing any information about the enemy?
In just a moment, Himeko realized that the iron chains extending from the magic circle were not something she could completely avoid.
"Himeko!"
After glancing at Himeko, who was bound by iron chains, Ghost gritted his teeth and made a resolute decision...
Ignoring Himeko Murata and the white-robed bandit, he rushed out the door first.
Because St. Freya Academy was invaded by foreign enemies twice a few months ago, the academy has strengthened its defenses since then. High-ranking personnel such as Theresa, Himeko, and Ghost are all wearing tracking systems.
After all, if a high-ranking official were to be captured, they could use these location systems to try and find the enemy's location by following the clues.
Meanwhile, the fact that the other party used a binding ability rather than an attack ability is enough to show that what the bandit wanted to do was take Himeko Murata away, not kill her.
On the contrary, the fact that the ghost was not immediately restrained indicates that, in the eyes of the enemy, the ghost was not the target he needed to capture this time.
And things that aren't the goal, but rather things that get in the way...
"Heh, a mouse, trying to escape?"
Watching the speeding ghost, Fueki Kanade knocked Himeko Murata unconscious with a punch while raising her right hand again to activate the magic on her ring.
【Explosion (Ring of Explosion)】
Upon hearing the voice, the ghost instinctively raised its hands in a defensive stance.
In the next instant, she was blown away by the violent impact and fell to the ground severely injured, losing consciousness.
"Huh? He's still alive?"
Looking at the ghost lying unconscious and barely alive on the ground, Fueki Kanade frowned slightly.
He hadn't been able to gather any information about the woman in front of him, but based on that, she should also be an A-rank Valkyrie.
To fully unleash the combat power of an A-rank Valkyrie, it is necessary to equip her with sufficiently powerful Honkai energy weapons and Valkyrie armor.
However, even though the [Explosion] spell that Fueki Kanade used was a lightweight version of magic with only one-tenth of the destructive power, designed to reduce magic consumption, the fact that this attack failed to kill the woman still made Fueki Kanade feel that he had been too arrogant.
In this world, he is no longer the strongest fighter in the original world; now he even struggles to kill an A-rank Valkyrie...
So, my power isn't enough to fight head-on against the high-level combat forces of this world?
There's no need to kill them to cover it up, since all Kanade Fueki wants to do is take the Jinchuriki away, not cause trouble here.
However, just as he was about to raise his right hand to cast a spell, Fueki Kanade's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he took out his weapon, the Hammer Staff, from his spatial storage.
Unfortunately, after drawing her weapon, Fueki Kanade, who didn't have time to parry or use defensive magic, was still hit by a burst of magenta bullets.
Although these bullets weren't very destructive, Fueki Kanade knew that real trouble was brewing.
"So... is Himeko one of the people you've got your eye on?"
【FormRide Kiva DoGaBaKi Form】
After transforming instantly, Gu Yu immediately grabbed the Bashamerin Gun that shot out from the void, and at the same time grabbed the card that was launched into the air, and swiped it down directly.
"Leave him here!"
【FinalAttackRide KKKKiva (Final Attack Riding Luna)】
"Hmph, Decade... a demon who shouldn't even exist in this world?"
【Copy (replicate the ring)】
After completing the copy using the copying ring, Fueki Kanade looked at the rapidly forming water field beneath her feet and immediately understood the intention of the boy in front of her.
Ha, are you planning to trap me with water flow and then force me to fight him head-on?
Good idea, but unfortunately...
【Teleport (Teleport Ring)】
Both the cloned Kanade Fueki and the original Kanade Fueki are leading a comatose Himeko Murata.
Unable to immediately discern which one was the genuine article, Gu Yu could only raise her hand to attack one of them, interrupting their teleportation magic.
As the water bullets from the Bashermein gun easily struck one of them, Gu Yu immediately saw Himeko Murata fall to the ground and turn to ashes.
guessed wrong?
"Too bad, you guessed wrong, young man."
After the main body left, the clone of Fueki Kanade, who had been hit, continued to say words to buy time under the control of the main body.
"It seems you know what I'm planning, don't you? I just want to resurrect my beloved daughter. A father's love for his daughter is only natural, you..."
"—What right do you have to stop me?!"
"Pah! Sacrificing other innocent people to save one life, how can you say that with such righteous indignation?"
"and……"
After discarding the Bashammerin Spear, Gu Yu, who had grabbed the Dega Hammer, looked coldly at the white-robed clone in front of him and said irritably.
"If you want to resurrect your daughter, you must find her soul. That scoundrel Otto has been searching for his fiancée's soul for over five hundred years and still hasn't found it..."
"You haven't even found Fueki Koyomi's soul, and you're already causing all sorts of trouble."
【FinalAttackRide KKKKiva (Final Attack Riding Luna)】
"You can't even find your daughter's soul, so what kind of resurrection are you talking about?!"
