Despite Wilhelm's outburst, Linliane remained completely calm and expressionless throughout. She looked at Claudia and asked:
"This guy didn't abuse you, did he?"
"You... Pfft!"
Wilhelm couldn't stand this guy's scheming against him anymore. Just as he was getting really angry, two supermassive, calm gazes 'looked' at him across countless multiverses.
Wilhelm, feeling an immense pressure on his soul and consciousness, immediately collapsed to the ground.
Claudia panicked at this, while Xianglien was startled, and Linglien smiled with a triumphant and vengeful grin.
To say that Himuro Rei doesn't care at all about the grudges from her past life would be a complete lie.
Relying on the powerful connections she has backing her up, Himuro Reia is not afraid of anyone below the level of a god.
.........
"So, what brings you here?"
Reni sat on the tatami mat, holding a teacup and sipping tea, staring at Wilhelm, who dared not speak his anger, with dead fish eyes.
Anna, who had been knocked unconscious by Wilhelm, woke up and sat down next to Shanley, who was comforting her. However, she still glared at Wilhelm with a grimace.
She encountered this guy while searching for supplies outside. As soon as he met her, he said a lot of strange things, and eventually they started fighting.
Anna, who hadn't regained her power, was instantly defeated, as expected, by Wilhelm, who had.
If the two were to fight at their previous level, Wilhelm might not necessarily be able to defeat the White Knight, after all, the opponent is one of the three guard knights of the Golden Beast.
But now, Wilhelm looked around warily, afraid that some domineering god might jump out and beat him up.
"Do you think I wanted to come here if I hadn't been ordered to?"
Having confirmed that no vision far exceeding the mass of the multiverse was looking at him, Wilhelm took a deep breath and stated directly that he had come with a mission.
Please enjoy your tea.
Xianglianni placed the brewed tea in front of the couple.
Claudia politely thanked him, and Wilhelm also politely thanked her under Claudia's stern gaze. However, after taking the tea, he gave Xianglien a strange look from head to toe.
Unable to ignore the other person's gaze, Xianglianni, feeling somewhat embarrassed, scratched the back of her head and asked:
"Um, you know the senior, so do you also know me?"
"I do know him, but it's only one-sided."
Wilhelm nodded. In the past, he wouldn't have been interested in talking to this girl who didn't remember her past.
However, after learning about Kaori's true identity from the Pure Land, Wilhelm's tone unconsciously became more friendly.
After all, the previous life was Ayase Kasumi, and the current one is Karen Ni. Even though they are no longer related by blood, the other party is still the legitimate descendant of her boss, Gold.
Wilhelm was unaware of the relationship between the Sun Prince and Reinhardt before, so even after finding out, things couldn't be the same as before.
“You will remember this someday, (Golden) Prince.”
Wilhelm did not continue speaking to Karenina. When he addressed her as the Golden Prince, he said "Golden" in his mind.
Miko?
Xianglini was completely bewildered. She had previously called Linglini Taiyo Miko, but now she was also being called Miko, which left her very confused.
Wilhelm didn't look at the bewildered Xianglianni anymore, but turned to Linglianni in front of him with a helpless expression, and said:
"Lord Heydrich hopes you will go to the Pure Land, as things have been quite turbulent in various worlds lately."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Linglianni paused in her tea-drinking motion, her body trembled involuntarily, and a hint of disbelief flashed in her eyes.
Lord Heydrich? If Skadi or Fujii Ren were to send her to the Pure Land, she would only be surprised, not find it too bizarre.
But Wilhelm said that Heydrich had ordered him to come and pick her up, which shocked Ling'ai and made her instinctively feel scared.
For no particular reason, this was the most normal reaction from others to Heydrich, and Linglene was no exception.
After all, because she was once a sacrifice to the Sun Prince, her memories of her past life, while some were pleasant, were mostly terrifying.
Wilhelm, with his keen eyes, noticed that Linlian's body trembled slightly, and knew that she might have misunderstood something, so he said directly:
"Don't misunderstand, both [Setsuna] and [Rotation] have agreed to this matter, and they and I will also consult your opinion."
When Linglien heard the names 'Moment' and 'Wheel,' which didn't sound like names, she knew who Wilhelm was talking about, and her heart calmed down unconsciously.
Yes, things are different now. Heydrich has become a god, so things like transmutation circles and sun children are no longer needed.
"Is things not peaceful...?"
Once she calmed down, Linglien thought of the demon-slaying stories on Earth and looked at Wilhelm with a puzzled expression, hoping he could enlighten her.
Mary and Lynn, as well as Skadi, did not intervene, which puzzled her.
Wilhelm said things weren't going well; could something terrible have happened on this gentle fifth day?
"This is a long story, and it can't be explained in a short time."
Faced with Linglian's questioning gaze, Wilhelm didn't know how to explain, so he said directly and simply, "Lord Heydrich and the others are very busy in the Pure Land. Although this era is wonderful, there are also people like us in the past."
Linglien understood. Those reckless guys like the Thirteen Knights of the Holy Lance.
Wilhelm's arrival was due to concerns from the Pure Land side about the safety of Linglianni, so someone sent him here.
But the thought that it was Heydrich who had instructed Wilhelm to do it made Linlene feel a little uncomfortable.
If Wilhelm has changed, has that man changed?
She had been thinking about this ever since she saw Wilhelm and Claudia off.
She told him she needed to think about it and sent the two people away.
Reni sat in the temple courtyard, looking up at the starry sky, reminiscing about her life in Suwahara.
In her less-than-ideal past life, she only experienced a little happiness during her high school years.
It was a short but happy time, yet it was very fulfilling and unforgettable.
'Theresia......'
Her current situation isn't bad. Although her birth circumstances were somewhat terrible, she has managed to live quite well even in the apocalypse thanks to the special care she receives.
'Theresia......'
After she recalled her past life, hmm...? It felt like some voice was calling to her.
Linglianni shook her head from side to side, looked around in confusion. She didn't feel any danger, so she wasn't afraid.
but......
"babble----!"
Suddenly, as if sensing something, Linglianni shuddered.
As if she were hallucinating, she sensed... or rather, in a daze, a pair of sacred and solemn golden eyes.
"Aaaaaah—!" X3.
Suddenly, Anna and Xianglini screamed from inside the temple room.
Sensing something was wrong, Linglianni immediately got up and ran into the room.
What exactly happened? And did some 'acquaintance' come over?
And who could possibly make that White Knight Anna make such a sound?
"Xianglini, what happened!?"
Calling out to her younger sister from this life, Linglianni opened the door to the room. Her tense gaze turned to panic as she looked inside, and her expression became incredibly stiff.
"Ah, senior, another guest has arrived."
Undeterred, Xianglianni greeted Linglianni with a smile, then her eyes lit up as she looked at the glittering guest before her and excitedly said:
"This guest is incredibly handsome! So radiant...like...like a king!"
Anna, standing to the side, blushed and had a very complicated expression, a mixture of nervousness, fear, and shyness at the sight of a handsome man.
After all, calling the man in front of them a handsome man is not an exaggeration at all.
But the fear and tension seemed to emanate from her very soul; she respected the familiar man before her.
Moreover, if she was a wild beast, then the man before her was a king of beasts, seemingly above her in the natural food chain, and the mere sight of him sitting in front of her made her feel pressured.
However, Anna's love of beauty gave her a strange feeling towards this handsome man.
His long, golden hair seemed to rival the sun, and his deep, solemn eyes carried a hint of superiority and majesty. His extremely handsome face was so striking that one glance was enough to make one remember him forever.
Even if the other person is male, the word "beautiful" is perfectly appropriate when applied to him.
"You, you, you...."
Looking at that familiar face that made her body tremble, Linglianni stammered, her face full of disbelief.
The guest, described as radiant and regal, was Reinhard Heydrich. He elegantly sipped his tea, then smiled at the trembling Linglianni at the door and said:
"What's wrong, Theresa? Why the long face? Did you not expect me to come and visit you?"
"..."
Linglien remained silent, her face pale and pale, but just as Heydrich had said, she truly hadn't expected him to come and visit her.
She had previously wondered if, if acquaintances from her past life appeared again, it might be Fujii Ren, Skadi, or at the very least, Shirou or Sakurai Hotaru.
But to everyone's surprise, Reinhardt arrived the very night Wilhelm left.
This was not a surprise for her, but a severe shock and intimidation!
P.S.: Readers have asked the author to speed things up, feeling that the fifth day's plot was a bit weak. If most people feel the same way, the author will accelerate the Crimson King jump...
Chapter Nine: The Mercury Serpent That Killed the Society
Reinhard Heydrich can be considered to be the great-grandfather of Reia Himuro.
When asked about their relationship in a past life, the other person did not acknowledge it.
Despite having been defeated by Fujii Ren, due to the special circumstances on the fifth day, he was reborn.
