Sakura Emma, ​​I'm going to control you fiercely!

……

"very good."

Looking at the black ball in her hand and glancing at the pained expressions on the faces of the researchers around her, Hong managed a rare smile.

"The second wave of despair begins!"

She tossed the black ball into the air!

Hong seemed to see the abundance of witch genes she had gained from the second round of despair, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.

As Yuki absorbed the witch's genes, she secretly watched as Emma disappeared beneath the dark clouds on the giant screen.

Although she didn't know where Yang had gone, she had a strange sense of familiarity as she watched the pink dot of light suddenly disappear on the giant screen.

A smile appeared on her lips.

It's as if I can see the researchers' amusing expressions on Hong's face.

None of the researchers noticed this.

Amidst the eager anticipation of Hong and the researchers, the black sphere flew out of the laboratory ceiling and into the sky—

Swish!

A flash of pink light intercepted the black ball.

The anticipation on Hong and the researchers' faces hadn't even faded when they seemed to hear a sentence:

"Bring it to you!"

Volume 1: Chapter 354 Give it to me!

The moment the black ball flew into the sky, a flash of pink light appeared, like a gust of wind, and swept the black ball away.

In the instant before Pink Light departed, she seemed to leave behind a single sentence.

"Bring it to you!"

The pink light seemed to have simply done something "casually," and quickly disappeared from the researchers' view, becoming an almost imperceptible pink dot.

The smiles on the faces of the people at the research institute hadn't even faded yet.

The researchers were laughing, Hong was laughing, and Xue was laughing too.

The researchers stared blankly at Hong, and Hong silently looked back at them.

The red-faced zombie asked with a smile,

"Where are the witch genes we cobbled together?"

The researchers stood there, stunned, before shaking their heads after a while.

Hong couldn't hold back any longer.

"Where is that 5283 witch factor that we pieced together from various sources, and which even had the High Priest take a cut from?!"

The researchers silently gazed at the giant screen.

On the giant screen, the absorption speed of the black cloud slowed down, after all, Emma Sakura had "left" that black cloud.

This is something they just discovered.

huh~

A giant pink light flashed across the screen, and Sakura Emma returned to the darkness.

In his hand, he not only held the 5283 that the researchers had collected, but he was also frantically eating the black cloud.

"My...my 5283!"

Hong could no longer maintain the composure and dignity of a branch leader, and clutched her head, howling angrily.

—"Pfft...!"

A soft chuckle drifted from the side.

Red, with bloodshot eyes, glared back at Anchor Point.

"You can't even compete with them and you're just laughing? Instead of laughing, why don't you go and try it yourself!!!"

"Oh."

Yuki Tsukishiro continued to diligently absorb the witch's essence.

...In contrast to Sakura's "delicious feast," the anchor point's absorption of the witch factor seems rather leisurely.

Those present vaguely sensed that Yuki Tsukishiro's barrier to the Red Rank was about to shatter.

On the other side...

Yang Wen plunged the Blood Sword fiercely into the black sphere formed from the witch's genes!

[Witch Factor: 5283→5176→5038……]

[Black Filth +80][+40][+90]

From the moment the black ball was intercepted until it flew back under the black clouds, the black filth surged from 3800 all the way past the 4000 mark, and continued to climb.

He once again experienced double the joy!

And almost at the same time that Tsukishiro Yuki was about to break through—

[4850/5000]

Yang Wen is also about to break through to the red level.

Researchers also noticed that Sakura was about to break through to the Red level.

The researchers couldn't help but start arguing.

"How about we resign and join the Demon Bureau?"

"Indeed, it's much safer to be Sakura's colleague than her enemy."

Yukishiro also got involved.

"I can introduce you to the Holy Maiden so that you can join the Court of Judgment."

Whether it was a job interview or a trial, I have no idea—Xue didn't say that.

"Oh! This is really good!" The researcher was genuinely interested.

"It's so noisy!"

Hong forcefully stabilized the situation.

"...Anyway, let's pool our resources a bit more. Take out all your belongings."

This time, Red didn't hold back and directly took out several Poké Balls containing Yellow-level wreckage.

One of the balls even contained an orange-level wreckage!

The researchers looked at the orange-level debris sphere with strange eyes.

"Boss Hong, you have so many witch genes, why didn't you show them off before?"

"...Enough with the nonsense, take it!"

Driven by Hong, various items imbued with witch-like qualities fell onto the surface of the workbench.

Hong calculated slightly...

Scattered together, I can gather over 1000 Witch Factors, which should be enough to upgrade my permanent White-level Eclipse Phase to Blue-level.

"it is good……"

Hong used [Temporary Guardianship] to transform all the remains into witch factors, and then extracted the witch factors from the items.

At that moment, another sphere condensed in her palm.

"To completely raise the concentration of witch factor among the residents of Kamakura to over 75%—"

"—The Red Boss!!!"

Her red face turned pale.

What happened again?

Hong took a deep breath.

"……what?"

Several researchers are rapidly adjusting the magic circuits at the front of the laboratory.

"The witch factor in the entire city is decreasing!"

"It's because... Ryota Hasumi started an emergency live stream!"

The giant screen switched to a breaking news report.

Everyone lowered their voices and listened carefully to Ryota Hasumi's live stream video.

【I am Hasumi Ryoua. Please listen to me—】

Currently, the disaster situation in Kamakura has been brought under control.

The first words Leia uttered in the video made the researchers almost lose their composure.

Hong glanced at the dark clouds outside.

They've been... taken control of?

where?

At this moment, all street screens, televisions, and mobile phones in Kamakura simultaneously switched to the Kamakura Demon Government's emergency live broadcast.

The residents on the street, their eyes glazed over, were also watching the live stream.

After hearing Kamakura idol Ryota Hasumi say that "the disaster has been brought under control," the residents finally felt a little relieved.

The reporting continues.

Leia: [Through coordination by the Kamakura government, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Bureau of Demonic Religion, and the Great Exorcism, the following emergency response plan has been confirmed:]

[Within 15 days of the disaster, all work and classes in the city will be suspended. Affected workers will be treated as on paid disaster leave.]

[The rent for affected businesses will be waived for the current period, and the rent will be paid on their behalf by the disaster relief fund.]

Residents who need to temporarily leave Kamakura can ride public transportation to Tokyo for free.

The repair costs for damaged residences will be covered by the disaster relief fund.

The very first measure brought hope to the entire city. Not to mention all the favorable policies that followed!

On the television, Léa smiled and said to all the people of Kamakura:

Let's get through this together!

[Furthermore, the funding is jointly provided by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Exorcism Bureau, the Exorcism Emergency Fund, and private donations.]

"Yay! Yay!!!"

"The disaster is over! The disaster is over!"

"We'll also have paid leave!!!"

Emma breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the residents cheer.

"It really works..."

Leia, who was previously arranged by the research institute to be a "savior," has finally made her appearance. This time, she truly belongs to herself!

Yang Wendao said, "See? It really works, doesn't it?"

Emma: "This is a policy I came up with... but it actually works."

These policies would have been difficult to implement in a short period of time, and the officials would have found it difficult to quickly unite as one.

But behind them stands Saintess Noah-chan!

This was also the inspiration Emma got from her section chief:

The despair of ordinary people often does not require grand ideals to resolve.

Will I survive? What will I do about my house? Will I still get paid? Do I need to go to work tomorrow?

Once these specific problems are resolved, the emotions will naturally subside.
