[I've figured it out! Aragaki usually works at night, and as a result, I've missed so many things... I don't understand any of it.]

[Isn't it just that an invasive species has made a strong inroad into the island nation, and Aragaki Manami has become the savior? Haha.]

[It's already beyond my reach. I'm currently imitating Aragaki-sama's spear-wielding movements, and I'm on my way to the hospital.]

The Enlightened Empire.

Yuzuki Yukino, who was still staying there, covered her mouth with her small hand as she watched Aragaki Manami's extremely fierce martial arts skills.

Yue Zhengling, who was standing next to her, twitched her eyelids.

Next to Yue Zhengling, Luo Tianyi was eating steamed buns, holding clean, white vegetable buns in both hands and taking small bites.

Mo Qingxian was doing gymnastics while keeping her eyes glued to the huge screen. "Looks like Zhennan has been playing all night. He must be exhausted."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work. Also... it's a real shame that we haven't seen enough of Aragaki-kun's dashing figure."

Jieyueyuan also responded softly.

But what she said made Yue Zhengling's head turn black with annoyance—didn't everyone notice anything wrong?

To be honest, Yue Zhengling had a pretty good impression of this prince from Yingzhou, but she just really wanted to complain about him... in every aspect.

Especially those about Manami Aragaki!

At least, she said she couldn't accept it yet, or rather, it would take her some time to accept it...

There was another person who, like Yue Zhengling, couldn't accept it: her brother, Yue Zhenglongya.

In the Tang Dynasty, he got up early and went out, completely ignoring the advances of many women with a blank expression.

He glanced at Mana Aragaki on his phone and shook his head inwardly.

He thought to himself, "Aragaki, we've collaborated a few times, but you've really ruined my fun and made me feel so tired and disillusioned..."

Well.

After dealing with another batch of flying beasts, Aragaki Manami covered his nose.

I wonder who's talking about him?

After muttering something to himself, he turned his gaze elsewhere with a strange expression. It was Tokyo, which seemed to be Totsuki's territory.

"The level of power seems a bit too high, can you handle it?"

Chapter 117 The Demon Serpent! Yukino and Yukino's Riddle Exchange

In the region that Aragaki Manami is paying attention to.

A ferocious serpent, over twenty meters long, with three enormous eyes arranged in an equilateral triangle on its head and four claws on its body, hissed.

Suddenly, its sideburns, which had been flying wildly in the air, transformed into syringe-like shapes...

"Hide!"

"Do not--"

Hiss hiss hiss hiss~~

The green, foul-smelling venom shot towards the scattered people with incredible speed and accuracy. Many who couldn't dodge in time were instantly melted like candles... leaving no trace of their bones!

Watching this scene from afar, Azami Nakiri's eyes twitched almost imperceptibly. He whispered to his female assistant beside him, "Immediately escort Erina back, and at the same time order the barrier masters to continue to strengthen the internal barrier."

The assistant quickly agreed and turned to leave.

After giving his instructions, Azami Nakiri continued to look at the invasive species that resembled a snake but had four claws.

A group of people not far from Azami Nakiri began speaking at an extremely fast pace—

"Special armor-piercing projectiles cannot penetrate its surface defenses!"

"Possessing agility disproportionate to its size! It can control its hair to transform into needles to pierce its prey or into syringes to corrode it!"

"There are three active sensory organs in the nose!"

Azami Nakiri listened quietly, his expression unchanged, only his indifferent eyes occasionally flashing with a cold light...

On the other side...

Erina Nakiri was also notified to leave immediately.

She obediently did as she was told.

Hisako Niito, who was following behind her, looked at her melancholy appearance, opened her mouth slightly, but ultimately remained silent.

While invasive species-infested areas present enormous opportunities, the dangers are equally undeniable.

Ultimately, opportunity and danger always go hand in hand.

Nothing in this world is perfect.

At this moment.

The events that have occurred in this region have naturally made the Nakiri family's situation extremely dire!

Compared to the current state of the Yukinoshita family, although they are not in a miserable situation, they are bound to suffer significant damage!

It's important to understand that when the invasive species first broke out, the Nakiri family, with their control of Totsuki, immediately took a significant lead over others... They definitely got a bigger slice of the pie than everyone else.

Therefore, there are quite a few envious forces.

Now that this has happened, even Hisako Niito, who doesn't know the specifics of the Nakiri family's situation, understands that the future trend will definitely not develop in a positive direction.

The Nakiri family, which had been in a very favorable situation because they had taken control of an invaded territory and planned to continue their efforts, suddenly found themselves in a precarious situation.

"It's not as bad as we imagine yet. As long as we capture that 'Demon Serpent,' everything will be alright," said the person leading Erina Nakiri away.

Erina Nakiri remained silent.

She didn't know if it was good or bad... She only knew that because of this so-called "demon serpent," countless people had already lost their lives.

The Demon Serpent...

Hisako Shinoto felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing that terrifying name.

She glanced back and saw the thick, long snake-like body, seemingly piercing the sky, soaring nimbly through the air as if covering the heavens and the earth, accompanied by whooshing explosions!

And there were also those enormous, strange insects and birds flying across the invaded territory...

No, no, no!!

Hisako Shinoto's eyes widened, and she abruptly turned to look at the person leading the way: "Shouldn't we deal with those invasive flying species??"

Erina Nakiri was also taken aback; she only realized this after being reminded!

That won't do!

If these highly mobile invasive species were to fly outside, the Nakiri family's situation would become even more precarious!

By the way.

Controlling the invasion territory doesn't mean the end of the matter; one must also fulfill corresponding guardianship obligations.

There's no such thing as getting something for nothing and expecting the authorities to clean up the mess!

There are forces that want to evade responsibility in this regard, but they have all been met with collective suppression from all forces!

in the end.

This is no longer a question of unspoken rules or not; it's an explicit rule that this must be done!

Anyway, if something really goes wrong and affects any innocent people, then they're guaranteed to be in deep trouble.

Yes.

The personnel guarding the invaded territory were all members of the Nakiri family—beneficiaries of the regime—or mercenaries recruited at great expense… The exact cost was astronomical! And that doesn't even include the compensation for those who sacrificed their lives…

Even though Erina Nakiri wasn't the current head of the family, she could feel an intense pressure, as if the sky was about to collapse!

"This is because there is a person named Aragaki Manami guarding a location that invasive flying species are bound to pass through..."

"Aragaki Manami?"

Both Erina Nakiri and Hisako Shinoto were taken aback.

The guide hesitated for a moment: "This Mr. Aragaki seems to be a member of the 'Cursed Blood' clan, guarding that area and capturing many invasive species..."

Erina Nakiri's eyes flickered, her expression thoughtful.

And then there's Aragaki Manami, who was mentioned.

He continued to diligently harvest these invasive species that seemed edible no matter how you looked at them.

Each strike was a deliberate attempt to destroy the brains of the invasive species, obliterating their will and thoughts while preserving their intact, living bodies.

After all, it's always better to have fresh ingredients.

How can dead shrimp and crabs be compared to live shrimp and crabs?

"Things don't seem to be going well over to Totsuki. So many insects and birds have flown over here."

As Aragaki Manami pondered, he swept his blood-stained spear across the ground.

Streams of air exploded!

Then a series of heavy objects fell precisely to a certain spot and disappeared.

bang bang bang...

Inside the hidden barrier, Yang Nai had already taken out paper and pen and was carefully counting.

"Yukino, once you've recorded the obvious surface features of the invasive species, start filling in the details of the specific features, and don't get too close."

"I understand."

Yukino nodded in agreement.

Yang Nai suddenly asked, "What do you think of him?"

Yukino paused for a moment, then turned to look at her older sister Haruno, who still wore a sunny smile.

After a long silence, he said, "...I think he seems to have a particular fondness for young girls."

Now it was Yang Nai's turn to be stunned.

She remained silent for a long time: "...Yukino, none of the girls who flaunt their youth in front of me have a good life."
