Chapter 116 The supreme god arrived in his loyal Tokyo
Seiju, Tokyo 1-ku
The dormitory is tidy yet solemn, completely lacking any girlish style.
The pure white girl was draped in several layers of thin white paper cloth, and wore a veil of the same style on her head, making her look as if she were wearing a wedding dress.
This sixteen-year-old girl is the ruler of the Tokyo district in Japan, which has now split into five regions.
At least, they were the nominal rulers.
On her beautiful face, the slight furrowing of her brows only added to the girl's charm.
Gastrea, which suddenly appeared in the world ten years ago, once pushed humanity to the brink of extinction with its enormous body, powerful self-healing ability, and certain ability to spread.
But it wasn't just monsters that brought disaster to humanity; humanity itself also suffered.
Humans infected with gastritis will become monstrous, but there is one exception: if a pregnant woman is infected with a small amount of gastritis, the child may have genes from both humans and gastritis, and is known as a cursed child.
Gastrea have crimson pupils, and the Cursed Child also has eyes of the same color. Most people who see the Cursed Child are reminded of the fear of being dominated by monsters.
The Holy Emperor wanted to establish laws in Tokyo to protect the cursed child, but he had few supporters and achieved little success.
As the nominal leader of Tokyo, she could do nothing.
Her power was completely usurped by Tendo Kikunojo, although this loyal minister had tried to delegate power to her.
She has also been trying to handle government affairs.
But that's all she can do. She can't even suppress one group, win over another, or cultivate a group of her own loyal followers.
Handling government affairs is the limit of her current abilities.
The Holy Emperor shook her head, roused herself, and knew she couldn't afford to be discouraged in her position.
Just as he was about to continue handling government affairs, a gunshot rang out from outside.
The Holy Emperor left his desk and beckoned outside. A male guard wearing a white coat and cap, with a pistol tucked into his waistband, entered.
"Mr. Yasuoki, what's going on outside?"
The man communicated with the outside world via electronic devices and responded quickly.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Two petty thieves attempted to enter the Holy Residence, but the guards will be able to handle them soon."
The Holy Emperor paused slightly.
“Mr. Yasuoki, I know everyone in Tokyo is under pressure right now. Tell the guards to be lenient. If the investigation confirms they aren’t spies from other factions, then let them go.”
This was not her idea. Even she, having handled a lot of government affairs, understood the importance of clear rewards and punishments. Such an act of attacking the Holy Residence could not be tolerated.
However, what she was worried about was that the other side must have been confident and had something to gain by daring to attack the Holy Residence. But if their subordinates went too far, then there would be no way to reconcile the situation.
Moreover, if it's a misunderstanding, or if they are mentally unstable, their lives can be spared.
Takuto Howaki bowed slightly, picked up the electronic device, and relayed the Holy Emperor's instructions to the outside world. The Holy Emperor then returned to his desk to continue handling state affairs.
Before she could even put pen to paper, the girl frowned. Why hadn't the gunfire stopped? And it seemed to be accompanied by the sound of metal clashing.
Huh? It stopped?
"Mr. Yasuoki, what's the situation outside?"
The Holy Emperor turned his head, his tone tinged with doubt.
If the gunfire continued, it meant the intruders outside were incredibly powerful, but she had already given the order, so the gunfire stopped after a while.
Does this mean they're ignoring what she said?
Upon hearing this, Takuto Howaki was also stunned, finding it hard to believe the information coming from the electronic device. He swallowed hard and said with difficulty.
"The entire Royal Guard has been wiped out, and the bandits have already occupied the entrance to the Holy House."
"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, the police support has arrived, and the thieves will not be able to advance an inch."
Wait a minute? What do you mean the entire Imperial Guard was wiped out?
For some reason, the Holy Emperor felt a sense of unease, but before she could call for a halt, she heard Hoshigaki Takuto beside her guarantee.
"The elite guards have arrived, and I believe they will be able to capture the enemy soon."
Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, remained silent for more than a minute, and listened to the gradually intensifying gunfire coming from the walkie-talkie before speaking in a low voice.
"How about we surrender? Maybe that would reduce our casualties?"
But Takuto Howaki said confidently.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have already contacted the Self-Defense Forces, and they will be here soon with heavy firepower to provide support."
I'm afraid the Self-Defense Forces will also be wiped out.
The Holy Emperor forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart.
At least several dozen men, with dozens of guns, were completely contained by the enemy...
Faced with such a powerful opponent, the Holy Emperor worried that ordinary firepower would be of little use.
She had heard that the top-ranking Initiators among the Cursed Children were able to wield specially made birch metal weapons and even carry Gatling guns.
With a helpless sigh, the Holy Emperor knew there was nothing she could do now. She waited for things to unfold, hoping it wouldn't be the worst-case scenario she had imagined.
After listening for a while, the Holy Emperor suddenly asked a question.
"So how many enemies are left?"
"Two, but I believe the Self-Defense Forces will definitely be able to defeat those two monsters."
Didn't they all disappear? And why are they already the Self-Defense Forces?
Where are the guards? Where are the royal guards? Are they all wiped out?
He tried to keep communicating with the front lines, but after only a short time, the other party switched their communication to him.
"Damn it, it's a monster! We can't even scratch it, we're retreating!!"
The gunfire stopped immediately, followed by the sound of engines starting and helicopter blades turning.
Takuto Howaki stiffly raised his head and reported with a bewildered expression.
"My lord, the Self-Defense Forces have retreated. The Demon King has breached the Holy Residence's defenses."
The Holy Emperor's face was stiff. No, he really came?
Do you think it's too late for us to surrender now?
The Holy Emperor asked tentatively, "If it's not this kind of monster, why would it target her?"
Besides, aren't the top 100 monsters from the Initiators all in Russia, the EU, and the White Eagle? Why would they suddenly appear in a small place like Japan?
As for why there's no ranking of the originators of the great Eastern power? That's because that country on the other side of the strait isn't capable of doing something as abhorrent as sending children to the battlefield.
Other countries provide socialized care for cursed children, and they all receive inhibitors free of charge.
After a long while, without receiving a reply from Howaki Takuto, the Holy Emperor gradually developed a sense of unease.
She glanced at Howaki Takuto, who seemed to be making some kind of decision, and subconsciously took a few steps back.
The atmosphere gradually became heavy, as if you could hear your own heartbeat.
Tap! !
As the footsteps drew closer, the Holy Emperor couldn't help but swallow hard, preparing to pick up the pistol he had placed next to the documents.
And just then.
Sa——!
A flash of light, and the tightly closed door was cleaved open in an instant; Takuto Howaki did not hesitate for a moment.
He stepped forward, swiftly drew his gun, and pointed it at the Emperor's temple, while simultaneously glancing towards the door with a fawning smile. "Sir, this is the man you were looking for, the supreme leader of the Tokyo district. I have him under control."
Instantly, the Holy Emperor froze. She knew then that these incompetent guards were unreliable.
And you, Takuto Howaki, didn't you like me? Didn't you want to marry me? Why did you draw your gun without any hesitation?
Su Nian, who had just emerged from behind Kanae Butterfly after she split open the door, looked at Takuto Howaki with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Who are you?"
"I am your most loyal follower and your most devoted subordinate. I respectfully request that you come to your beloved Tokyo."
There was not a trace of hesitation in Takuto Howaki's words.
"Well····"
Su Nian rubbed her temples, gave Kocho Kanae a look that said, somewhat speechlessly, and told her to deal with it.
The next moment, a cold light flashed, and this guy, whose name Su Nian didn't even know, died on the spot.
Su Nian remembered that the Holy Emperor's guards seemed to have a habit of abusing cursed children, so he didn't let Koko Kanae hold back.
If you go out now, you might still see a lot of corpses, as well as bullets that Kanae Butterfly cleaved with her knife.
Kanae Kocho naturally had no objection to this, or rather, she originally did, but after witnessing the horrific scene of the cursed children being tortured and killed, she had no objection.
"Hey, are you still awake?"
Su Nian turned her head to look at the Holy Emperor, who was clearly still in a daze.
The Holy Emperor stared blankly at Su Nian, mainly because she really didn't know how to face this situation.
What should you do if you are kidnapped after breaking through the army single-handedly?
The Holy Emperor's cheeks trembled slightly, and a forced smile appeared on her stiff face. She straightened her collar, pulled at her skirt, and gave a slight bow.
"Sir, may I ask what brings you here? And is it perhaps impolite to meet here?"
Su Nian remained silent for a moment, then looked at Kanae Butterfly with suspicion.
Was I being rude?
Kanae's lips twitched slightly; she had a desire to complain but didn't know how.
Just because you want to ask a question, barging into someone's front door isn't exactly rude, is it?
Yes, because this is outside the scope of normal etiquette.
Therefore, Su Nian was not impolite (for real).
Thinking of this, Kanae Butterfly smiled.
"Of course not, how could the Dragon God be so rude?"
As she spoke, she looked at the Holy Emperor and lightly touched her lips with her finger.
"But you, it's rather rude of you to plan to receive us in a place like this!"
Holy Emperor: ......
Who was being rude? Why don't you give me a choice? Or at least make an appointment beforehand?
I promise to treat you well!!!
Do you think I want to be rude?
However, after seeing the knife in Kanae's hand, the Emperor felt that he could perhaps restrain himself.
Honestly, I was quite impolite not to wait for them in the designated meeting room!
Hmm... the Holy Emperor hypnotized himself in this way.
She should have been waiting in the reception room for these two old men to come knocking... what a load of rubbish!
Forcibly suppressing the urge to complain, the Holy Emperor smiled politely and respectfully.
"May I ask what brings you two to see me?"
"Oh, nothing much, just planning to learn about the situation in various countries around the world, as well as the living standards of the Cursed Children and such."
Su Nian shrugged and said casually.
At this point, a troubled expression appeared on his face.
"Sigh, if the satellites hadn't been shot down and ordinary mobile phones and computers couldn't connect to international signals, I wouldn't have come to ask you."
So... you just came here to ask us for some information? And you've already started using the name "Saint-Government"?
Are you guys out of your minds?!
Why not just spend some money to hire some professionals? And wouldn't international initiator monitoring organizations have better access to information?
I'm not angry, I'm not angry, I'm really not angry.
Why be so convenient when you can just go the way you want? Besides, Su Nian was actually quite curious about what kind of person the Holy Emperor was who planned to promote the "Gastrea New Law".
But now it seems like you're a bit more active inside?
It sounds like they're ranting about him.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the sacred toilet had been destroyed by Gastrea, Su Nian's first stop would have been that sacred toilet instead of the Holy Abode, which is a bit of a pity.
But it doesn't matter, there's still one place in the Demon Slayer world where he can blow it up.
After calming himself down through a rich internal monologue, the Holy Emperor looked at Su Nian with complicated emotions, and then began to explain the current situation of the Cursed Child to Su Nian.
As for lying, she didn't think she could hide anything from such a powerful person.
"Throughout the world, there are generally three views on the cursed child."
Firstly, in underdeveloped third-world regions such as Africa and Latin America, the locals regard the cursed sons as necessary fighting force and as messengers sent by the gods.
As for those whose erosion rate reaches fifty percent, they are considered to have absorbed too much of the earth's evil and need to be purified by fire so that their souls can return to the gods.
Although it may seem cruel, the cursed child was actually treated quite well during his lifetime, and there was absolutely no question of him being mistreated.
It's much better than Japan, where even the final cremation was after the animals had turned into Gastrea.
After all, given the technological level of the Third World, how could they possibly know the extent of the Cursed Child's corruption, except in a very few places?
They simply believed that the cursed children had absorbed too much sin from the earth, and this even led to the development of entirely new religious theories.
The second view is the international consensus, which is the mainstream opinion represented by Europe and the United States.
On one hand, they believe that the cursed child is a sinful child and a member of the witch's retinue, while on the other hand, they enjoy the protection of the cursed child.
However, as the adopted Cursed Children's achievements increase within the International Originator Oversight Organization, their status is gradually rising, and various protection laws are being introduced.
Of course, this is only on the surface. In reality, the Cursed Children are used more as expendable resources and experimental subjects in Europe and America. After all, the Cursed Children have strong regenerative abilities and no human rights.
At this point, a hint of disgust appeared on the Emperor's face. It can only be said that the international atmosphere played a significant role in the situation in Tokyo.
However, Su Nian felt that Japanese culture had a greater influence.
However, some police officers who spent their days with the Cursed Son, and due to the Cursed Son's achievements and strength, ultimately received much better treatment.
The third possibility is that of a certain major power on the other side. Although the Gastrea suffered severe damage, they did not extend their hatred to the Cursed Children.
Instead, they actively established specialized schools to socialize and raise the cursed children, teaching them how to control their powers and making them understand that they are not special, not sinners, but part of the Chinese nation.
They are also actively seeking research to reduce the degree of erosion and allow the cursed children to become normal children.
After all, no matter what they say, they can't bring themselves to send their children to the battlefield; the adults aren't all dead yet.
