I adopted a child demon from the Gap, and I'm a special agent for the Bureau of Supernatural Ab

A van suddenly stopped in the central square, and six or seven masked men dressed in black pulled out various guns and began firing wildly at the crowd.

"City Amusement Park".

Boom!

A man wearing a thick coat, looking swollen all over, squeezed into a large group of parents and children, and then pulled the fuse of explosives strapped to his body.

……

"This is just the beginning."

In a completely dark video where nothing can be seen, a voice that has been specially processed and whose gender cannot be identified can be heard.

“Your Bureau of Superpowers claimed a month ago that it would use the most powerful force to wipe us out of this world.”

"This is our response, a reply to your hypocritical and ridiculous faces."

"The future of the world belongs to the powerful and noble transcendent beings. Ordinary people who cannot obtain superpowers and magic are nothing but slaves. For a better future, the hounds will continue to hunt."

zizi——

After a series of static noises, the screen suddenly showed a black hunting dog gnawing on bloody bits of flesh. The screen then disappeared, and the video ended.

"...So, all of these things were done by that Hound organization?"

Looking at the message on the screen indicating the video had ended, Li Cheng asked with some confusion.

Inside the Emiya residence, the members of Team Six sat around a table. On the computer on the table, a video had just finished playing, and below the video, it was displayed that the number of views had exceeded one million.

Kiritsugu Emiya's expression was dark, his brows furrowed as if he were deep in thought. Rin and Kamijou were both tense, as if facing a formidable enemy, while Shiki's expression already betrayed his murderous intent.

The believer remained unmoved, showing no sign of being affected by the video.

"You should say this is a declaration of war."

After a long silence, Kiritsugu Emiya raised his head, closed the laptop on the table, and then slowly spoke.

"Because the Bureau of Superpowers made the decision to wipe out the terrorists and gangs in the abandoned port, they laid an ambush on the Bureau of Superpowers team and carried out a terrorist attack in response."

“Our sixth group has always been an ace-level force in the entire Bureau of Supernatural Abilities, and we also participated in and turned the tide of the abandoned port operation. Next, we will probably be the main target of those people.”

A fierce look began to appear in Kiritsugu Emiya's eyes.

"Since we've been treated as prey and have been declared war on, there's no need for us to wait for them to attack. Since they call themselves hounds, let's see which is stronger, man or dog."

……

When Li Cheng left the Emiya residence, he received an order from the Bureau of Supernatural Abilities' internal communications to be on high alert. His original leave—no, his suspension—had been temporarily canceled.

"This wretched place has really been plagued by disasters lately."

Li Cheng sighed softly, shook his head helplessly, and decided to go home first.

Hopefully this whole mess will end soon.

"Oh, sir, is something troubling you?"

A familiar voice came from a side alley. Li Cheng was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and saw a girl with long golden hair, wearing a Western-style dress, sitting on a chair in the alley.

This, this is...

"If you have any worries, would you mind if I took a look? Our fortune telling services are always very accurate."

The blonde girl looked at Li Cheng, smiled, and stood up.

Section 276, Chapter Fourteen: Purple and Purple

The streets were deserted and eerily quiet immediately after the terrorist attack; the entire neighborhood seemed to have died.

In the street, Li Cheng stood on the road under the sunlight, looking at the smiling blonde girl in the dark alley.

"Although it took a long time, we can finally confirm it. Sir, could you please explain briefly where that aura on your body comes from?"

The young woman smiled and walked gracefully and calmly toward Li Cheng.

Li Cheng stood there stunned, unsure how to react.

Is she Zi?

No, it seems like there's something slightly different about it.

Familiar yet somewhat strange, a strange, bewildering mix of complex feelings assaulted Li Cheng's mind at that moment.

So similar, it feels like they're exactly the same...

【Fool!】

A voice suddenly rang in Li Cheng's mind, like a thunderclap. With the appearance of this voice, his consciousness quickly returned. At this moment, he realized that the girl who looked just like Zi Ku was already only five or six meters away from him.

What happened just now?

A dark rift suddenly opened behind Li Cheng, and Zi reached out and grabbed Li Cheng's right hand. But at the same time, the girl's expression suddenly turned serious, and in an instant she appeared in front of Li Cheng, who was being pulled into the rift, and then reached out and grabbed Li Cheng's left hand.

The next moment, Li Cheng was stretched into a starfish shape by the huge pulling force on his left and right hands.

What... what's going on?

"So you've finally shown yourself, my kin in this world, the second Gap Youkai."

The blonde girl, who looked almost exactly like Zi, said with great surprise, her gaze fixed on the hand reaching out from the gap with great interest.

"I don't care what you're thinking, just let Cheng go!"

Zi's ​​words, clearly tinged with displeasure, were accompanied by a sudden release of intense demonic power. The girl holding Li Cheng's expression changed, and a demonic power almost identical to Zi's was activated at the same time. The two forces erupted simultaneously, colliding with Li Cheng's body.

The sensation sent a shiver down Li Cheng's spine, and he almost fainted.

"Humph!"

Having clearly noticed Li Cheng's distress, Zi's voice grew even more furious, and an even greater surge of demonic power, accompanied by a change that Li Cheng could not comprehend, swept over him. Meanwhile, the girl on the other side underwent an even more dramatic change in expression.

"This is the outside world. How dare you use your demonic power so recklessly? Aren't you afraid of being discovered by those people?"

One cannot directly confront it. The power of this level requires one's full strength to neutralize, but if one were to actually attack, the resulting surge of demonic energy would be difficult to conceal. That would increase the danger.

"Tsk."

Realizing that she could not meet her clansman now, the girl shook her head with some regret, released her small hand from Li Cheng, and then disappeared into a gap.

"Although I don't know why you reject me so much."

The girl's voice rang out from the gradually disappearing gap.

"However, this act of escapism will only intensify my curiosity, fellow clansman. I look forward to our next meeting."

As the girl's voice gradually faded and eventually disappeared completely, Li Cheng was pulled into the gap and appeared beside Zi.

It's clear that Zi's expression wasn't very happy.

"Tch, I don't want to see you at all, you clueless idiot with a carefree expression on your face."

After muttering something under her breath, Zi ignored Li Cheng's bewildered expression and began to wander through the dark gaps.

"Wait a minute, Zi, can't you just tell me what happened first?"

After a moment of surprise, Li Cheng quickly followed in the direction Zi had left, and shouted loudly behind her.

"I'm not interested. You just need to take good care of your sixth group. Anyway, she won't dare to cause you any trouble for a while."

Judging from Zi's attitude, she was clearly quite resistant to the topic of the mysterious girl who had suddenly appeared.

Li Cheng was taken aback by Zi's unusual behavior. Just as he was about to say something more, Zi suddenly waved her hand, and a force pushed him out of the gap, and he reappeared on the deserted street.

What is this... sulking?

Li Cheng didn't know how he should react.

He tried to enter the rift again and was able to use it, but he could clearly feel that part of the rift was hidden. Zi's mood seemed to be exceptionally bad. She even used her realm to hide her location, making it impossible for Li Cheng to find her and talk to her.

The mysteriously appearing girl completely disrupted Zi's mindset, shattering the elegant demeanor she had always presented to Li Cheng. Through the contract linking them, Li Cheng could clearly sense that Zi's emotions had become unstable.

This feeling of turmoil...is Zi resisting meeting that girl? Will meeting that girl bring Zi pain?

Or perhaps, will the girl's existence remind Zi of something, or reveal a reality that is difficult for Zi to accept?

Li Cheng stood silently on the deserted street. After lingering for more than ten minutes, he turned around and walked towards the abandoned shrine.

……

Meanwhile, in the abandoned city outside the city, in the filthy, abandoned sewers, someone is standing in the darkness.

"Excellent, very good, extremely good."

A low, guttural laugh emanated from the figure in the darkness.

"I thought we'd need to do it a few more times, but it seems this time it was a real success. These city cowards are completely terrified now!"

The man laughed loudly with malice, while beside him, a girl's calm voice spoke gently:

"Do you need me to hypnotize a few more people to carry out suicide attacks?"

"No, no, no, that's not necessary."

The man waved his hand, and his footsteps walked deeper into the sewer.

"Our operation is for the benefit of that person, not for real terrorists. This is enough. Let those cowards have their fun for a while longer."

Let's wait a little longer; soon, the Superpower Bureau will be a mere shell of its former self.

Our plan will soon be fully realized.

The man smiled coldly, as if he could already see that bloody future.

"The chessboard is set up, and we pieces have made our moves. Now, let's see how those cowards respond. Let's go, let's wake up Number 1. Our next plan can't be without this big guy."

"Yes."
