Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

Six Blades, belonging to the Taishi Bureau, a special agency under the Ministry of Home Affairs of the island.

I just met with Makoto Haramura and the others in Japan a few days ago.

She's already here.

Of course, if possible, she would absolutely never want to set foot in this place.

"However, everything is developing exactly as His Majesty the True Ancestor predicted."

"Those guys whose brains are full of fat are really out of their minds."

"I get so scared by the slightest thing that I wet my pants."

Under the shade of a tree, Kiriha Himizaki gazed at the construction site, her face full of resentment.

She is currently on 'Azure Paradise,' an affiliated island under construction on Itogami Island.

It is a large amusement park jointly funded by Kusugi Happiness Enterprise and Itogamijima Management Corporation, and is expected to be put into use in two years. Due to the tight construction schedule, only some key children's amusement park facilities have been completed so far, and the entire island is currently a construction site.

The construction of this large-scale building complex is a disaster for the residents.

Her current task is to protect a child.

Of course, it seems that the Ministry of Home Affairs was not entirely convinced of her identity, so they did not tell her what the child's true identity was.

But how could she not investigate carefully?

Putting aside the fact that her stance is already biased, secondly, before all these things happened, it's impossible that she would have gone on a mission without knowing anything.

That's so dangerous.

And now, the information she has discovered is about the person she is trying to protect: a little girl named Eguchi Yutomi is an extremely special demon, the Nightmare Clan.

Furthermore, she is the last nightmare in the world, and she inherited the soul of the oldest nightmare, 'Lilith,' making her a special being who is suspected of being able to control the ancient mythological weapon Leviathan.

This unique characteristic could even be considered a 'nuclear bomb' for Yutomi Eguchi.

Meanwhile, Hisuki Happy Enterprises secretly colluded with the Ministry of Home Affairs and was secretly raising Eguchi Yutomi on Itogami Island.

Hiding a nuclear bomb secretly in a place where a true ancestor resides—those old guys in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what they want to say shouldn't be too obvious, okay?

As things normally should proceed, the next step should be Leviathan's plan to attack Itogami Island.

Leviathan's attack will definitely draw out the Fourth Progenitor. Once that Progenitor, who is known as the strongest in the world, really makes a move, she, a mere soldier, will face the battlefield where the Progenitor and Leviathan clash head-on.

At that time, she, who is suspected of treason, can also gloriously sacrifice herself.

"Since you are so unrighteous, then I will be unrighteous too."

To be honest, she initially scoffed at her own behavior.

I still feel a little ashamed and embarrassed.

But now, ashamed?

Excuse me?

Sorry, that item is definitely no longer available.

People are not killed for their own sake.

Besides, it wasn't her, Kiriha Himesaki, who started doing inhuman things.

"In that case, let's give a truthful report."

Himesaki Kiriha glanced around to make sure no one would disturb her or eavesdrop, then took her phone out of her pocket.

He pulled up the number he had kept at the top of his list but had never called, and dialed it.

"What's going on? What's the Imperial Observatory doing?"

"I'm not entirely sure either, but based on my initial deduction, the Ministry of Home Affairs probably wants to activate the ancient weapon, Leviathan."

"We will sink you completely into the sea and utterly destroy Itogami Island."

"Oh ho?"

On the other end of the phone, Makoto Haramura clearly showed some interest.

"This is one of the few pieces of good news I've heard in a while."

"I didn't expect those guys to be so stupid."

Makoto Haramura burst out laughing.

"But Leviathan."

"That's really quite interesting."

"Then what do you think I should do on this side?"

Kiriha Himesaki continued to ask.

Since you've decided to abandon darkness and embrace the light, you should make your stance clear.

"Just do things the way they normally do now."

There's no need to do anything unnecessary because of this.

Chapter 255 Are you interested in seeing other worlds?

"What do you think, Yue-chan?"

Wearing a black nightgown, Haramura Makoto lay back on the sofa, a faint smile playing on his lips, looking at Nangong Nayue, who was sitting opposite him, carefully savoring her black tea.

"Ugh!"

Nangong Nayue sighed softly. At this point, she had completely given up on correcting Haramura Makoto's way of addressing her.

"It's highly likely to be true, but it's just a feint."

"There must be other methods."

"This is mainly to attract our attention."

The problems surrounding Kiriha Himizaki cannot withstand scrutiny.

They released Himesaki Kirie back then mainly because they wanted her to pass on a message and arouse the suspicion of those fools in the Ministry of Home Affairs.

But now that the people in the Ministry of Home Affairs have noticed something is wrong with Kiriha Himesaki, they still put her in such an important position and let her carry out the mission.

This almost certainly indicates that this is a smokescreen put out openly by the Imperial Observatory.

If Kiriha Himizaki succeeds, all is well; if not, she can at least draw the attention of the Fourth Progenitor on the island.

That means it's half done.

"makes sense."

"So where else do you think they can start?"

Makoto Haramura yawned, picked up the glass of wine and ice from the table, and took a small sip.

"I am not sure as well."

"After all, there are many dangerous things hidden on this island."

"Each one can be considered a fuse for an explosion."

Nangong Nayue scoffed, her tone clearly not pleasant.

There's nothing we can do about it; this island is the product of ambitious people.

It is inevitably filled with the traces of ambitious people.

"Then you'll have to work hard."

Makoto Haramura shrugged, seemingly indicating he had no intention of getting involved.

"I wasn't expecting you to help anyway, your intervention is too much of a fuss."

Nangong Nayue rolled her eyes; she didn't want this old man to make a move.

If this old man were to take action, who knows how much economic loss it would cause.

"Aha."

"Speaking of which, is everything ready over there?"

Nangong nodded that month.

"Everything is ready. Her Majesty Jada has sent a notice saying that the meeting will begin at one o'clock. Please be on time."

……

Time quickly passed and it was already afternoon.

Led by Nangong Nayue, Haramura Makoto arrived at the second floor of his villa, in a room he had never been to before.

The room was dark, with no lights on and the curtains drawn.

In the center of the dimly lit room stood only a chair—an old steel chair reminiscent of medieval torture instruments, with metal handcuffs attached to the armrests and the back of the chair engraved with dense, eerie magical runes.

Himeragi Yukina and Kirasaka Sayaka were on either side of the chair.

He truly embodied the demeanor of a guard.

"This is the mold assigned by the True Ancestor. Sitting on it will lead to the gate of the 'Whispering Courtyard'."

"Well."

Makoto Haramura nodded and sat down without hesitation.

"By the way, a message just came from Lanyu Immortal Abode."

"It is said that the First Princess of the Kingdom of Aldeqia has requested to visit Itogami Island."

Nangong Nayue said as she activated the magic circle engraved on the chair.

"I remember it was that country with advanced magic technology?"

"Are all members of their royal families highly qualified spiritual mediums?"

Haramura Makoto memorized the method used to activate Nangong Nayue and pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Yeah, that's it."

"Interesting, let her come."

The metal handcuffs snapped on automatically, securing the ancient city's wrists firmly. Magic flowed from them, causing the runes on the chair back to glow.

"I understand, I'll arrange the time."

……

The marble-white passageway stretched endlessly before my eyes.

A wall of roses surrounded the area, and the branches of an unknown giant tree loomed overhead like a roof.

The twilight world, nestled between day and night, is enveloped in a dazzling golden mist.

This is another dimension.

A different dimension similar to Nangong Nayue's prison barrier.

——'Whispering Courtyard'!

A different dimension accessible only to nations that have signed the Sanctuary Treaty, major powers, and the Night Empire.

This is a meeting place that only the leaders of major forces can enter.

Led by the True Ancestor, who possesses veto power among the three great Night Empires, and supported by other nations, the aim is to avoid armed conflict through negotiation.

"Welcome, Fourth Ancestor."

A sound came from the fog.

The gender of the speaker was indiscernible; the voice was almost a murmur.

Suddenly, he realized that the huge round table had already surrounded Makoto Haramura.

There were twelve seats at the round table, and all the participants seated there wore silver masks that covered their faces. They were the twelve council members who presided over the Sanctuary Treaty Council.

Makoto Haramura's eyes narrowed as he scanned the twelve masks one by one, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

"Really? I didn't see that you welcomed me."
