Himeragi Yukina remained silent, sitting in the center of the spacious worship hall.

Opposite her, the curtain obscured the view, revealing only three figures. They were the elders of the Lion King's organization, known as the "Three Saints."

Has this day finally come?

Setsuna harbored a faint glimmer of hope.

"Himehira Yukina, how old are you?"

"It will be fifteen in four more months."

"You started your cultivation seven years ago, right? I remember... It was a cold, snowy night when someone rescued you. Do you remember what happened that day?"

The tactic is to first appeal to their sense of gratitude.

The snow cabbage heart sank little by little, remaining silent.

But the woman speaking from behind the curtain ignored her silence and continued, "Your grades seem quite good. Yuantang often praises you, saying you're the most outstanding all-rounder in the history of the organization, the most outstanding indeed."

A sigh escaped, and a murderous aura filled the air!

Himeragi Yukina, whose body had been trained in martial arts since childhood, sensed the danger. She spontaneously stood up, took a side step, and with a flick of her sleeve, effortlessly swept away the air blade that was swung from behind the curtain. Her jade-like hand silently struck out from her sleeve.

The four-armed warrior with bows drawn on both sides is a shikigami created through sorcery.

After she struck empty air with her palm, the shikigami warrior's form vanished instantly, leaving only a katana lying on the ground.

"What a brilliant move!"

Sparse applause came from the other side of the curtain: "Himehira Yukina, you passed."

It was a man's satisfied laugh, a low and deep voice.

According to Setsuna's information, he should be the only male among the three saints, surnamed Zong, and he has always been the one who liaises with high-ranking Japanese cabinet officials.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

"Yes."

First, take a look at this.

A butterfly landed in front of Setsuna and transformed into a photograph of a male student in a high school uniform.

The fourth Progenitor in the anime, Kojou Akatsuki.

Now, the fourth True Ancestor is Akatsuki Sasa.

Yukina closed her eyes; there was no longer any hope left.

"Xiao Gucheng is his name, have you heard of him?"

"I've heard of him, the Fourth True Ancestor's elder brother."

The woman behind the curtain continued, "What are your feelings for him?"

"..."

"To put it another way, does he suit your taste?"

"...You should know that I like girls."

The three saints remained silent for a moment after she confessed her sexual orientation, until the woman's ambiguous voice finally rang out again.

"You're a smart child; you should know what a True Ancestor is."

In the eyes of politicians from various countries, the reason why the three True Ancestors concluded the Treaty of Peace and Sanctuary was because for several decades they had always restrained each other and maintained a tripartite balance of power, and they feared the existence of True Ancestors other than themselves.

"Yes."

"However, the emergence of the Fourth True Ancestor could easily shatter this balance, and it's hard to guarantee that it won't trigger a large-scale war that affects humanity."

On the surface, Setsuna should have agreed, but inwardly she just found it amusing.

Having watched the anime, doesn't she know that the most unique feature of the Fourth Progenitor is its ability to fight in space?

In terms of true combat strength, which of the three True Ancestors isn't more powerful than the Fourth True Ancestor?

The three saints are merely spreading alarmist rumors in an attempt to persuade her to contact the Akatsuki siblings.

But Yukina Himeragi remained silent, utterly silent.

"This is why I called you here today, Yukina Himeragi. In the name of the Lion King Organization's 'Three Saints,' I have ordered you to be responsible for befriending the Fourth Progenitor's elder brother, Kojou Akatsuki, and to monitor the Fourth Progenitor, Nagisa Akatsuki."

The woman declared in a calm yet undeniably authoritative tone.

Seeing that she remained silent, the man behind the curtain raised his voice: "This is the will of the cabinet ministers; you cannot refuse."

Yukina took a deep breath, her gaze sharpening again; at this moment, no one could decipher her emotions.

"I obey."

"Okay, accept this, Himeragi Yukina."

A silver spear was planted in front of Setsuna.

"This is......"

"The Type 7 Assault Demon-Slaying Machine Gun, inscribed 'Snow Wolf,' you know that name, right? You also know who its previous owner was, right?"

The previous owner of the Snow Wolf, Fujisaka Fuyuka, was the sword sorceress who rushed into the cult's sacrificial site seven years ago, risking her life to rescue Yukina, and ultimately fought to the death alone.

This was a life-saving favor, and she had no way to repay it.

They, on the other hand, wanted her to repay them with her body.

The woman, her voice muffled, let out a deep sigh.

"Since your opponent is a True Ancestor, we would like to provide you with stronger equipment before you set off. But as things stand, this is the strongest War God weapon we can prepare. Would you be willing to accept it?"

"certainly."

A brand-new uniform wrapped in plastic film was passed out from the gap in the curtain.

The sailor-collar blouse and pleated skirt, in white and blue as the main colors, are the girls' uniform at Caihai Junior High School.

"Fourth Progenitor, Akatsuki Nagisa, the person you are monitoring attends this school."

"Also, the person you need to befriend, Akira Kojo, is in Class 1-B of the high school, seat number one. Do you have any other questions?"

"there is none left."

"...Then so be it, you may depart tomorrow."

After giving these instructions, the three saints departed.

Left alone in the hall, Yukina stared blankly at the gun in her hand, forcing a self-deprecating smile.

Xuecai was never a negotiation expert.

Therefore, she could not persuade the three saints to respect her orientation and dignity with words.

Her strength is not enough.

Therefore, the high-ranking officials in the cabinet don't care about her value beyond her looks, nor do they care about her thoughts; they can give her away whenever they want.

Who is she?

Qi Tongwei knew that heroes were merely tools in the face of power, and could not be resisted, especially since she could not be considered a hero adorned with honors.

She was just a somewhat violent brute.

She can do only what an ordinary person can do.

The Lion King Organization had been kind to her, and she also had mentors and friends in the Forest of High Gods.

But the cabinet did not.

......

The next day, after saying goodbye to her friends and besties, Yukina Himeragi left Takagami no Mori, where she had lived for seven years, and took a private plane to Itogami Island.

Nobody expected it.

The plane crashed over the sea.

The Lion King organization believes it may be the work of hostile forces and launches a night-long search and investigation, determined to find the perpetrator alive or dead.

But before they could retrieve the black box, an even more shocking and heinous crime occurred in Japan.

Of the twelve cabinet ministers, seven were murdered.

Some were killed by curses.

Some were killed by a pink-haired, half-human demon.

The oldest man's body was stripped naked and hung at the entrance of the city hall.

All of this evidence points to Himeragi Yukina, who should have perished in the plane crash.

That summer, Yukina Himeragi, the most outstanding and also the most wicked swordswoman in the history of the Lion King Organization, committed a heinous act that shocked the world and defected with the Snow Wolf.

She fled to Belon, a giant floating city on the Pacific Ocean.

This island city does not belong to any country and is currently jointly operated by several major powers. Due to the mining of "Orgon Mine," a new energy resource on the island, it has become one of the most watched cities in the world in recent years.

In this place where various forces intersect, the Lion King Organization, the Imperial Observatory, the Starry Sky Church, and various demon bounty hunters arrived upon hearing the news.

Yukina was ambushed by the Six Blades of the Imperial Observatory and chased after them with Miss Geng, but little did she know it was a trap.

The magic squads kept by high-ranking cabinet officials located her position from afar and launched missiles directly!

It was only thanks to the pink-haired demon's desperate rescue that she was able to enter the Main God Space alive.

"There's nothing to say!"

Using her spatial access, Xilin easily healed the injuries on Xuecai's body caused by the aftershocks of the explosion.

"Go cheat, then fight back yourself! Hmm, or do you want my adorable Yukina to help you fight back?"

"Let me first take a look at how many power systems your country has."

Yukina lay on Sirin's lap, rubbing her fingers together, her mind completely absorbed in the various enhancement methods.

"Spellcaster, Spellblade, Rozen Maiden, Lord of the Year, Naruto, Perfect Creature, Martial Arts, Herrscher, Stigmata, Fusion Warrior..."

Picking through the items, Xuecai scratched her head a little embarrassedly.

"I've always preferred long weapons, but I feel like these aren't really suited for me."

"Long weapons? Valkyries can use lances, right? Why don't you use a Durandal Celestial cheat?"

"Uh, forget about Western lances, I'm more traditional."

She asked in a low voice, "Could you give me a template of a single-player character? Yes, you know what I mean."

Xilin gave a helpless smirk: "So, should I find you a celestial hound too, Yang Xuecai?"

"Hehe, no need, I have a pink-haired cat."

Chapter 115 Yang Xuecai and the Pink-Haired Howling Dog!

Belon, late at night.

An abandoned factory has been reduced to ruins after being bombed by missiles.

In the darkness, a sweet pink figure moved with difficulty.

Gen, a half-demon girl who is sometimes called "Kisara" by her master, has large stubble of her smooth pink hair and her sailor uniform is mostly burned off.

Her delicate, exposed skin was charred in several places, and a large piece of shrapnel was embedded in one spot, with bright red blood dripping down.

Despite enduring missile bombardment head-on, Kisara stubbornly survived.

The master said she was a hybrid of human and demon.

The host also said that long ago, the ancestor of the Ogata family pursued a female demon and had a son named Kisara with her.

When she was very young, she was stabbed through the heart by villagers who feared demons with her mother's weapon and sealed in a cave for hundreds of years.

Even so, she is still alive.

It's easy to imagine how tenacious its vitality is.

"Like an unkillable cockroach!"

Her owner often teased her like this, then would cup her face and rub it as a reward, and gently or not gently stroke her head.
