Anime Crossover: Unparalleled Comprehension, Shocking the Star God

"I'm just looking, I absolutely won't test it!"

Seeing Su Mo say that, Black Tower's eyes lit up.

"Of course, it would be even better if I could test it. It doesn't matter if I can't use it. I'm just curious about the structure of this thing... So can't you really let me take a look? I can do anything!"

"Can you do anything?"

Su Mo looked at the doll-like girl in front of him with suspicion. Knowing Black Tower's style, she could say anything to satisfy her curiosity, so it couldn't be taken seriously.

"This time it's for real! It really is for real!"

Seeing that there might be a chance, Black Tower immediately raised his hand and swore an oath.

"To show my sincerity, I can give you all my dolls... no, that's not right, I'll come to see you in person right now. I can agree to all the conditions that Ruan Mei promised before, as long as you're willing to let me test you!"

Unlike last time, this time she was truly smitten.

Although she didn't know what the first type of permanent mechanism was constructed of, she was certain that it must be something that even the Venerable Master Boshi had never seen before.

For this opportunity, I would sell my soul, let alone my body.

How could she possibly give up?

"Then it depends on your performance."

Su Mo smiled slightly, neither saying it was good nor bad.

Given Black Tower's personality, the fact that he accepted these conditions suggests he's truly been completely captivated.

There's no reason not to accept a genius offered for free.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely make you satisfied!"

The doll-like girl patted her chest anxiously.

Even if Su Mo only hinted at a possibility and didn't make any promises, it was enough for her to take a gamble.

After the two finished their conversation, Su Mo turned around and looked at the crowd that had arrived.

Looking at Artoria and Xing, whose bodies were flowing with the power to protect their destiny, Su Mo nodded in satisfaction.

"It seems you've had a good haul."

"It was all under Master's guidance."

Artoria said sincerely.

"Father, I'm super brave now!"

Xinglu looked delighted to receive the praise.

"..."

March 7th sighed and facepalmed, speechless at his companion's attitude.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Bronya clenched her fist, stepped forward, and bowed respectfully to Su Mo.

"You must be the Lord Su Mo that Miss March 7th and Miss Star have been talking about! May I ask if you could ask Miss Seele to put my mother Cocolia down? Seele said she only follows your instructions."

Her question carried a hint of anticipation.

Surely the person who can make March 7th and Star treat each other so intimately can't be a bad person?

"Cocolia?"

After glancing at the woman Seele had placed on the ground, Su Mo asked Bronya.

"In what capacity did you make this request? As a daughter, or as the heir to the High Guardian?"

Upon hearing this, Bronya paused for a moment, then replied with a firm look in her eyes.

"As a daughter, no matter what mistakes my mother has made, I don't want her to be treated like an experimental subject."

"As the successor to the Great Guardian, I cannot allow the previous Great Guardian to disappear without a trace. Therefore, I implore your mercy to entrust Cocolia to me."

Knowing that Su Mo was an existence above the Star Core, and that even Artoria was his subordinate, and that March 7 and Star clearly had a close relationship with him, Bronya naturally adopted an extremely humble attitude.

Hearing her say that, Su Mo asked curiously.

"So what do you plan to do with her?"

The best villains are the dead ones, because there's no need to worry about what to do with them. If Cocolia were still alive, Bronya would be caught in a dilemma between loyalty to her country and filial piety, which would be very difficult to resolve.

“My mother has made a grave mistake and should not continue to serve as the Great Guardian.”

After glancing at Cocolia, Bronya answered firmly.

"However, the negative news of the High Guardian's betrayal of Beloborg will inevitably cause widespread unrest, and even if it is true, the people will never believe it easily."

"To prevent this from happening, and for the sake of stability, I must not make this matter public. Therefore, I will persuade my mother to step down."

Upon hearing this blatant declaration of power, Cocolia looked at her adopted daughter with no resentment in her eyes, but rather with great satisfaction.

Although she is too naive, this daughter does indeed possess the qualities of a leader when it comes to political maneuvering.

However, upon hearing this, Seele couldn't sit still.

"What?! You mean you're going to let this villain who tried to destroy the world go? You Upper District guys are really untrustworthy! Humph! What Great Guardian? We Lower District will never acknowledge him!"

Hearing Bronya so righteously utter words of protection, Seele naturally couldn't suppress her dissatisfaction.

"Wait, Seele! I haven't finished. I'm not trying to protect my mother."

Seeing her objection, Bronya immediately shook her head and hurriedly explained.

“My mother has committed an unforgivable mistake, and she must atone for it, but not in this way that shakes Beloberg.”

She didn't want to go against justice, but for leaders, often the "facts" are not as important as the "facts that people are willing to accept."

Even if she had a thousand pieces of evidence to prove that Cocolia betrayed Belloberg, the public would absolutely not accept such a far-fetched answer.

Moreover, even if they could accept it, it would lead to questioning of the Great Guardian himself, potentially causing internal strife.

If revealing the truth would shake the entire Belloberg organization, then it's better not to reveal it at all.

“My idea is that, following Miss Saber’s previous strategy, if we in Belleburg really have so many hateful parasites, then Mother should personally lead the team to take action and, with her prestige, wipe out all those parasites.”

"This is both a way for the mother to atone for her sins and for the sake of Belloberg. A mother who has dealt with too many nobles will not have a good reputation. This is the punishment she deserves and the best way for Belloberg to atone for her sins."

Completely unconcerned about being seen as a scapegoat for her mother, Bronya stated her plans directly.

She fully absorbed the experience passed down by Artoria and found her own white glove donkey without any formal instruction.

If taking action against the nobles would affect stability, but it was unavoidable, then he would let his mother, Cocolia, do it.

With one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, the two were able to completely eradicate those malignant tumors with minimal impact from the riots.

"This way, the lower districts will receive more supplies and won't be bullied anymore... Seele, what do you think of this idea?"

After saying that, Bronya asked sincerely.

With the powerful nobles eliminated and no longer hindered, she could arrange the entire planet according to her own will.

She believed that, as a leader, this was the decision she should make.

170. The Konkai Group, who voluntarily sold themselves into servitude.

For those who pursue justice, Bronya's proposal, while taking into account various reactions, undoubtedly falls into the category of appeasement.

If the truth is concealed, betrayal is suppressed, and sinners are not brought to justice, where is justice?

However, for the leader, this was the best solution Bronya could think of at the moment.

After all, she didn't worship any righteous star god, but rather a protective star god.

She didn't care if it went against justice, as long as it could better preserve the Beloborg civilization.

"...I know nothing about governing a country, but I believe this is the best you can do. Perhaps, as you said, this method is the best way to consider the lower classes."

After a silence of more than ten seconds, Seele spoke.

Having worked her way up from the bottom, she may have a naive side, but she wasn't so naive as to believe that revealing the whole truth would lead to a good outcome.

Often, good things are not necessarily right, and right things are not necessarily good things.

With her limited experience, she couldn't offer any opinion on Bronya's well-thought-out plan; she couldn't even find a single fault with it.

"Seele! You mean...you're willing to support me?"

Bronya showed a surprised expression upon hearing the girl's statement.

As the successor to the High Guardian, the Upper District's recognition is not an issue for her; the only force she feels must be mended is the Lower District, represented by Seele.

If Seele can agree with her, she believes her plan can also move other residents and make them willing to rebuild their homes together with the Upper District.

However, just as Bronya was fantasizing about being able to recruit Seele, who was standing right in front of her.

"No, although 790 thinks there's nothing wrong with your plan, I won't support you!"

Seele shook her head decisively, denying the possibility.

"why?"

Bronya looked puzzled. She clearly had no objections, so why was the other party unwilling to rebuild Belloberg with her?

Judging from Seele's personality, she shouldn't let past conflicts affect her future!

"Because there is now a better option."

Xi'er turned her head and looked at Su Mo in front of her with slight trepidation.

If she hadn't met Su Mo, she might have directly agreed to Bronya's plan, since it was already the best option.

But after meeting Su Mo, and with her previous thoughts and the inspiration she had just heard from the Black Tower, Seele came up with an even better idea.

“Bronya’s plan is good, and I believe she has the ability to execute it. But I know how difficult it is to govern a country. Even if Bronya is determined to take action against some nobles, she will inevitably face a lot of pressure and will not be able to take care of the lower classes at all times.”

If Bronya is the only one who wants to care for the Lower Districts, her goodwill will inevitably be exhausted by the numerous obstacles she faces.

Seele understood the concept of a hierarchy of contempt deeply, even without explicit rules.

Moreover, such care is very likely to be cut off once Bronya faces more important choices or a new High Warden takes over.

In fact, this is how things have always been in the world. Seele often compromises with Bronya's demands, which has resulted in a gap between the upper and lower zones in terms of many resources.

Therefore, Seele wanted to find a long-term way to keep the leaders of Belloberg concerned about the lower districts and prevent them from being abandoned as sacrifices.
