"Julis, where is His Majesty Jobert?"

"The guards have already taken him to safety."

Fortunately, Qimeila's target was only Yushin Hiroyu and his group, and there was no sign of her attacking the guests who were fleeing in all directions.

Glancing behind Chimera, he saw a line of men who looked like guards, holding up their guns in the shape of Shining weapons.

However, there were still guests in the hall, making them hesitant to act rashly.

"Horrrrrr...!"

The Chimera let out a low growl, its crimson eyes glaring at Mikami Hiroyu.

"Let's get rid of these guys first, otherwise it will affect others sooner or later if this continues."

"That would be great... but does anyone have any weapons that can be used for combat?"

Claudia reminded them that Kirin and Claudia weren't carrying any weapons. Yuuyu also wasn't carrying the Black Wheel Demon Sword, but dealing with a few monsters was still a piece of cake.

Just as Mikami Hiroyu was about to use his Star Power to annihilate these guys, Saya reached out and challenged him to a duel.

"Haoyu, leave it to me. I carry the Huang-style weapon with me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Saya lifted the skirt of her dress and took out the activation device from a case hidden underneath.

"Oh, as expected of Saya... Although I want to say that, Saya's Blazing Armament will surely turn this place into a scene of utter devastation!"

Each of Saya's Blazing Armaments possesses terrifyingly high destructive power. It might be acceptable in Asterisk, but here, one cannot simply fire indiscriminately.

"The same goes for Julis."

"My special move can adjust the firepower, and the accuracy is much better. Don't compare me to her."

Eurythm pouted in protest against Claudia's words.

"Alright, I'll take care of these guys!"

"But...but, fighting bare-handed is just too..."

"It's nothing, just a small monster. It's not even a small monster if it doesn't talk."

After finishing speaking, Yu Shenhaoyu walked towards Chimera.

The Chimera's stance was similar to that of a wary warrior, and as soon as it detected that the warrior had entered its space, its forelimbs swept across.

"Gah!"

The chimera's roar shook the air, but Yu Shen Haoyu merely dodged it slightly to the side.

"Gugaaaaa!"

The sharp claws attacked Yu Shen Haoyu again, and Yu Shen Haoyu jumped back to dodge.

"Senior Haoyu, danger!"

As if anticipating this move, the chimera's tail bared its fangs. The snake's jaws, large enough to swallow a person whole, drew near. Mikami Hiroyu spun in mid-air and kicked directly at the snake's head.

"Pfft!"

Using the flattened head as a footstool, Mikami Hiroyu circled around to the side of the Chimera, twisted his right foot, and kicked upwards towards its abdomen.

The enormous body flew through the air with a scream. Yu Shenhao twisted his body and jumped, kicking the chimera in the face three times in succession.

With each step Yu Shenhaoyu took, he carried the power of stars. Before these monsters could even land on the ground, they were scattered in all directions along with the high concentration of star power.

"This thing is definitely not a living being..."

Yulis said in a serious tone, and Mikami Hiroyu nodded silently.

.....

"...I never expected that even a chimera wouldn't be a match for him? It seems I underestimated him. To have such abilities even without weapons is a bit troublesome."

Standing on the lake, the man peering through binoculars said regretfully in a low voice, then snapped his fingers.

At that moment, something huge that was submerged in the lake beneath the man's feet began to move silently.

"Never mind, it's fine. Although I don't really want to get too involved in this kind of work... I also don't want our rare guest to run away."

The man muttered to himself before disappearing into the darkness of the lake.

Chapter 3719 Emerald Twilight

The following day, Yobert summoned Mikami Hiroyu and others to the palace.

"Kusitawu, Marlo?"

"Well, I don't really know either. But according to the police, this seems to be the name of yesterday's perpetrator."

Upon arriving at the same room as yesterday, Jobert was still dressed casually. The only difference was that Maria wasn't there today. Maria had heard that one of Jobert's lovers was bedridden with shock from last night's events, and she had gone to visit him. Their relationship was truly something else.

"I heard he's an internationally wanted criminal. He used to be at Asterisk, I remember... oh? Where was he a student?"

Perhaps he had forgotten, but Jobert stood with his arms crossed, lost in thought. His palace had been attacked by criminals, yet he seemed rather indifferent, appearing listless.

“The Academy of Arcant, he’s quite the celebrity in that field,” Claudia answered instead.

"A celebrity? But I've never heard of him before?" Mikami Hiroyu asked doubtfully.

"Although Kustav and Marlo were ranked, they never participated in the Star Martial Festival. He was one of the accomplices in causing the Emerald Twilight."

"Ah! Right, I remember now! That man is a Beast Magician, isn't he!"

Suddenly remembering, Eurythm stood up.

"The Emerald Twilight was the hostage situation that happened in Asterisk before, right? I heard that the captain of the garrison handled it all by himself..."

"That's right, that was the worst terrorist attack in Asterisk's history."

Claudia nodded in agreement with Kirin, while Mikami Hiroyu didn't have much information on this matter and therefore didn't offer any opinion.

"So, that bearded man is a terrorist?" Yulis said.

"No, strictly speaking, no. Emerald Twilight was an incident involving seventy-seven prisoners, including those supporting the students, but nearly a quarter of them were motivated by money. Kustav and Marlowe were among them."

After Claudia took out her phone and operated it for a while, she opened several virtual windows, all of which seemed to be news related to terrorist incidents.

"These are all events that Xian believes are related to Gustav and Marlowe. A so-called terrorist is someone who aims to achieve a certain political goal, but he doesn't have such thoughts. This can also be seen from the fact that he has joined forces with various terrorist organizations with different ideologies since Emerald Twilight."

"In other words, he's someone who does things for money. Wait a minute. What does 'after Emerald Twilight' mean? Since Captain Lindova resolved that incident, shouldn't he be captured by now...?"

Claudia shook her head regretfully, denying Mikami Hiroyu's words.

"Almost all the masterminds and key members of Emerald Twilight were arrested, but about seven escaped. Kustav and Marlowe were among them, which is why he became famous."

"I see."

“Of course, there are still many unsolved mysteries surrounding Emerald Twilight. The details of the incident have been fully reported by the Security Captain, but the background and aftermath have been handed over to the Integrated Corporate Foundation, so the truth remains unclear. This is one of Asterisk’s taboo topics.” Yulis’s expression was clearly displeased.

"So... what kind of magician is he?"

Kirin cautiously raised her hand to ask a question, but it was Claudia who answered.

"Kustawu and Erluo were hailed as unparalleled genius magicians in the field of universal elemental conversion construction techniques during their school days. His ability... is just as you all saw last night: to command magical beasts."

"Even though they're called magical beasts, aren't they created?"

Yu Shenhao recalled the chimera from last night. Although it moved very nimbly, it was clearly not a living being.

"Yes, of course. No one with this ability has yet successfully created life, and it's theoretically impossible. His ability seems to be completely transforming bones, muscles, and body tissues with the Universal Essence to create a living model."

"Our power lies in the power of imagination. If our imagination fails, our power diminishes; conversely, if we create a vivid image in our minds, we can accelerate the flow of the universal element and enhance our power. Although there is no universal preparation, if the object of materialization is not a phenomenon but a substance, it mostly depends on the sophistication of our imagination. That magical beast looked so real that no matter how powerful it was, it would be impossible to materialize such a vivid image in general."

Yulis, the only ability user among them, explained calmly.

"But Gustav Marlowe turned the impossible into the possible. Through his overflowing talent and the long time he spent."

"time?"

"Although he didn't say it himself, several of the terrorists who were caught can attest to it. Creating a new monster takes months, sometimes even years. Perhaps it's because it takes so long to fully unleash the imagination."

"Of course, Wan Ying Qin can indeed transform various phenomena or substances, but there is one major principle: it cannot be fixed. No, it's not that it's completely impossible, but to keep such a huge magical beast in its body for a long time, the amount of Wan Ying Element that needs to be transformed is extremely large. No matter how much stellar power one possesses, it is impossible. If left unattended, it will probably naturally disappear in a few tens of minutes at most."

"But this is quite convenient for terrorist attacks because there is no need to recover it."

Just as Claudia was giving her commentary, Yulis suddenly turned angry.

"Brother!"

"Hmm? Oh, sorry, sorry, I went to bed too late last night."

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Jobert, who was sitting on the sofa, had actually started to doze off.

"Brother, please be a little more serious! Hao Xi's palace was also attacked, wasn't it?"

"It wasn't the palace that was attacked, but you, wasn't it?"

"Can't you at least show some concern for your cute little sister?"

"Haha, if you're still worrying about such trivial things, your body won't be able to take it."

The interactions between Eurythm and Jobert were as uninhibited as those between siblings. At first, it seemed they didn't get along, but it appears that's not the case.

"What's more, how could they let such criminals in so easily? What are the guards doing here?"

"No, don't blame the guards for this. That guy named Kustawu seems to be impersonating a Galactic Research Officer, but I heard that the Galactic ID card he's using is genuine. It's impossible to guard against, even I couldn't stop him."

"The ID of the Integrated Corporate Foundation?"

Claudia frowned.

"What's wrong? Is something the problem?"

"The unified corporate foundation's ID is only issued to people within the company or its directly affiliated organizations. It's not something you can easily obtain..."

"The other party's tone sounds like they were entrusted with something, and there might be a huge organization behind them... But why would they make such a request..."

If Mikami Hiroyu and the others join Claudia's team, some people will have a headache, and Kustawu did say that.

Was it his personal decision, or the decision of the chaebol behind him?

"Never mind, we don't know his intentions for now, but we should prepare in advance."

Euryth stood up. But Jobert held out a hand to stop her.

"Wait a minute. Didn't I say yesterday that I had something to say to you and Mikami-kun?"

Upon hearing this, Yulis glanced at Mikami Hiroyu.

Yushin Hiroyu nodded, and Yulis, with a helpless expression, sat back down on the sofa.

Chapter 3720 As long as I'm here, she won't get hurt.

"And then? Why did you specifically ask Claudia and the others to leave? What exactly do you want to tell us?"

"Well, there are two things... but where should I begin?"

"Anything is fine, just say it quickly."

"Is that so? Then let's start with something simple, Mikami-kun."

Yobert turned to Mikami Hiroyu with a smile and said, "Can you marry Yulis?"

Yu Shenhao thought he had misheard, but after glancing at Yulis, whose face was flushed and who was trembling all over, he realized that he had not misheard.

"You, you, you... Why are you suddenly talking nonsense, brother! There should be a limit to how much nonsense you can spout!"

"Yes, that's true. I didn't ask you to get married right away. How about we start with an engagement?"

Jobert skillfully ignored Euryth's anger and leaned forward.

Yuujiro then came to his senses: "You may have misunderstood, but Yulis and I are not in that kind of relationship..."

"Hmm...! Yes, yes, brother! Besides, why did you skip me and go straight to Haoyu to discuss it!"

Eurythmia gritted her teeth, but Jobert didn't even glance at her.

"By the way, I've heard Flora's report about your relationship, and I was a little surprised. But that's fine, then there's no problem."

"How could there be no problem!"
