Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

Page 125

I've been manipulated! Help me!

But what's done is done, and there's nothing that can be changed.

After realizing this, the speaker thought he had to get up as soon as possible. Although he didn't know why he had regained consciousness, he wanted to tell the others this information!

He got up, not knowing when he would be manipulated again, so he rushed out of his room in a disheveled state, trying to find someone.

He doesn't have any magical costumes for communication at home, and as a veteran magician, he's not good at using technological equipment.

So when he encountered this situation, he thought of finding someone and delivering the warning.

At the very least, the members of the council should know that such an ability exists that can manipulate magicians like them without any flaws!

But when he left the room, he found that none of the guards who should have been there were there.

He is in a hurry.

So we searched everywhere.

It wasn't until we arrived at the hall with its floor-to-ceiling windows that we found a figure bathed in moonlight.

He was a middle-aged man.

He knew the other person; the other person's name was Kalia, and he was also a member of the Supreme Council.

Although he didn't know why the other party was there, it didn't matter what their purpose was now; he had to tell them!

"Be careful..."

puff!

He had barely uttered the word "be careful" when the middle-aged man pulled out a knife and swiftly slashed open his neck.

He tried to speak, but his vocal cords had already broken, and he couldn't utter a single word. His life was also rapidly slipping away.

He fell to the ground, and then saw the figure of the White Winged Duke emerge from the shadows and walk to Kalia's side.

Bai Yigong didn't even bother to glance at him, and directly followed Kalia, turning their backs to him, and walked out of the hall.

In the moonlight, he could see the shadows of White Wing and Kalia moving constantly.

The shadow of Baiyi Gong is normal.

But when he looked at Kalia's shadow, he was shocked to see that the shadow that had previously manipulated him was right behind Kalia's shadow!

Then, just as if it were merging into my own body, it slowly merged into Kalia's shadow!

For a fleeting moment, Kalia's shadow transformed into the other's appearance, but in the next instant, it reverted back to Kalia's shadow!

The speaker, who watched all of this unfold, tried desperately to make a sound, but all his efforts were in vain.

Moreover, his life force continued to ebb away, and the wound on his neck eventually caused his head to tilt to the side, where he died.

He is dying!

After White Wing and Kalia left, they obviously didn't intend to clean up the scene, and they didn't even intend to hide the fact that the Speaker was dead—because this was also a form of military intimidation by the new Speaker Kalia to the other councilors!

However, in this empty house where only the dead resided, Roland's figure appeared beside the deceased Speaker.

He crouched there, using his half-fused shadow right hand to help the Speaker close his eyes—and in the process, he used magic to burn away the Speaker's eyes and clear away his visual remnants.

After doing all this, Roland watched through the French windows from the shadows as Kalia and White Winged Duke left, and a slow smile appeared on his face.

"Lord Whitewing, before you completely lose this game, let me satisfy my curiosity by asking Kalia to help me find out what your hidden trump card is."

....

69. It's time to end all of this.

After Kalia walked out with the White Winged Duke, he looked at the White Winged Duke beside him.

“You’re right, restoring everything to its original state is indeed what I want… but I have a problem. Black Princess Altruchi is fine, but White Princess Arcueid… have you really thought about how to deal with her?”

Looking at Kalia's very serious face, Bai Yigong also became a little more serious.

"Of course I've thought about it, don't worry."

If he were to cooperate with the Far East Magic Association, then Bai Yigong would never reveal his trump card—after all, the Far East Magic Association doesn't necessarily have to cooperate with him, so if the Far East Magic Association senses a threat and then takes action against him, then he would be finished.

However, it's fine if you talk to Kalia from the Magic Association.

After all, although Bai Yigong had been planning for half a month to bring this matter to fruition, he did not expect that killing the chairman of the Supreme Council of the Mage Association and then putting a puppet on the throne would be so easy.

There seemed to be no obstacles along the way, except for some guards, which were easily dealt with.

Kalia was even willing to sign a soul contract with himself in order to become the speaker.

Humanity is truly beyond saving.

Looking at Kalia before him, Baiyi Gong sighed inwardly.

But that's precisely why, when Kalia asked about this matter, Lord Whitewing didn't hold back at all.

Because for him, Kalia was no longer a threat.

Just like Anhans.

The reason why Bai Yigong kept Anhans by his side even though he knew that Anhans had his own ulterior motives was because Bai Yigong had already judged Anhans and felt that he posed no threat.

So Bai Yigong smiled and, confident in the existence of the contract, explained his situation.

"Do you know why the original Death Ancestor was born?"

Upon hearing what Bai Yigong said, Kalia shook his head in agreement.

Seeing that Kalia was so cooperative, Baiyi Gong brought out this piece of history that had been buried in the past.

"The Death Ancestor was originally born because the True Ancestor needed food."

"Because the True Ancestor has a vampire urge, he needs to keep humans around to support him. So, in order to prevent them from escaping, he developed the first Dead Apostles. Among the first Dead Apostles in this world, the first Dead Ancestor was also born."

"Back then, the Dead Apostles were merely backup food for the True Ancestors, so the original Ancestors only had code names as their names."

"From one to six, these are the names of the six adults who banded together during that period. Compared to me, and even more so to Eltruch, those six adults were the true Kings of the Dead Apostles! The saviors of the Dead Apostles!"

At this point, Bai Yigong became somewhat agitated.

But he quickly realized he had been somewhat rude, so he let out a sigh of relief, calmed himself down, and returned to his usual self.

"This is also why I don't recognize Altruchi—after all, it was the True Ancestors who recognized her as the Queen of the Dead Apostles. She herself is a hybrid of a True Ancestor and a Dead Ancestor, a dog of those True Ancestors, not the Queen of us Dead Apostles."

"But that part doesn't really matter... Anyway, Kalia, do you know what it means to be a Dead Apostle transformed from a human by the True Ancestor?"

Kalia continued to shake his head.

Bai Yigong smiled and met his gaze, then directly stated the answer.

"This means that the Dead Apostles not only have vampire parts, but also human parts. Therefore, the reason why the original Six Kingdoms were able to possess such incredible power was also due to the help of humans, or rather, primates."

When Bai Yigong recounted this history, it was difficult to discern any expression on Kalia's face. However, when Bai Yigong specifically mentioned primates, Kalia's eyes widened, and his pupils slightly contracted.

"You mean... the inhibitory force!?"

Seeing Kalia's expression, Bai Yigong readily agreed.

"Yes! If you ask me what my trump card is, it's this: according to the ancient covenant, we can invoke the judgment of the restraining force!"

"The counterforce will neither help us nor help our enemies, so as long as the counterforce remains fair, we will be the victors!"

"Just like when the Six Kings rebelled against the True Ancestor!"

After the White Winged Duke and Caria revealed their trump cards, Roland, who had already returned to Einzbernburg, also learned of the White Winged Duke's trump cards.

"So that's how it is. So this is Lord Baiyi's trump card..."

Roland muttered to himself, then his brows furrowed visibly.

To be honest, he really couldn't say what Alaya's attitude was towards him.

If you're talking about the root cause, about Gaia, then Roland knows that they have shown him goodwill.

But Alaya...

This was indeed the only one he had never met.

With this in mind, Roland entered Gaia's field of vision, then invoked the blessing and expressed his thoughts.

Gaia's blessing is more like her touch, so Roland knows that even if Gaia cannot communicate with him directly through the blessing, he can still sense her attitude toward certain things from the strength of the blessing.

Bai Yigong's trump card is Alaya. Can I really make a move against him? Roland asked Gaia about her attitude toward this matter.

The result was that Gaia not only did not weaken the protection, but even greatly strengthened it, which clearly meant that Roland was free to do whatever he wanted.

After learning of Gaia's attitude, Roland nodded.

If Gaiaken helps, it's hard to say whether White Wing's trump card will still be effective.

Even if Gaia lied to him, it doesn't matter...

If all else fails, he could transfer all the members of the God Group to the Virtual World and then develop there, completely reversing the perception that the Type-Moon world is the main world.

so...

Give it a try.

Try Alaya's attitude, and also try Gaia's attitude.
