"Judging from your actions, you're probably planning to go directly to the Holy Lord of Truth who manages the Sword of Truth. You should be careful then. My old friend left with a fragment of the Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence. Judging from his style, that thing should have been passed down as a sacred object from generation to generation."

The Book of Omniscience and Mighty is the book that created this world, recording its beginning and end, as well as all knowledge and information. What humankind possesses is only a small part of this book. Two thousand years ago, the pages of the Book of Omniscience and Mighty were scattered, forming various books of wonders, leaving only the table of contents.

The above are the knowledge points that Sophia explained to Genshin, which made Genshin realize that the huge book he saw when he entered the 'library' last time was the so-called 'Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence' or something related to it. The amazing power in it also made Genshin admit that he had to do his best to resist it. According to Yuri, the danger of this mission has increased a little.

"However, even if a conflict does occur, we should be able to emerge unscathed."

At this moment, Yuri's hand trembled, and a flash of light appeared in his left hand, revealing the [Light-Sword Supreme Radiance]. Then, he reached behind his back and drew out the [Dark Sword Moon Darkness]. He nodded to Gensou and said:

"I am not yet able to fight as a swordsman, so you will have to control these two holy swords later. But I will cooperate with you, and I believe there shouldn't be too much of a problem."

After finishing speaking, Yuri, noticing the subtle look in Gensou's eyes, continued without changing his expression:

“I’m not stealing. Strictly speaking, this Dark Sword Moonshadow was originally mine. I’m just ‘taking’ it. Alright, let’s stop worrying about this and move on. I feel that the power of that fragment is not far from here.”

266 The Holy Lord of Truth

This should be the place.

Yuri pointed to the door in front of him and nodded to Gengo. Gengo took out 'Luna', activated its power, and with a casual wave of his hand, a moonlight appeared on the door. Through that halo, Gengo and Yuri could clearly see the situation inside the house.

The moment the moonlight appeared, the man sitting on the throne in the center of the room raised his head and turned his gaze toward Gensou. Then, the red book in his left hand flashed slightly, and the power of 'Luna' was dispelled.

Who's out there?!

At the same time, Reika Kamishiro, who was reporting something to that person, also stood up and shouted loudly. She took out her holy sword and was about to rush out to see who was so audacious, but she was stopped by the person on the throne. That person looked at the door with a smile, watched it being pushed open, and saw Genji and Yuri walk in.

"Mr. Gensou?!"

Reika Kamishiro was surprised and subconsciously put down her holy sword. Although she hadn't met Genji many times, she still had a good impression of the boy, especially his battle record. She had just been thinking about how to recruit him to the South District base, but she didn't expect to see him like this in the blink of an eye.

"Hahaha, so you're Yuanxiang?"

The person on the throne raised his hand, waved towards Genji, and said in an approving tone:

"Truly, heroes emerge from among the young. I was just saying that I hoped 'Sword' could invite you to meet me so I could see what the little hero who defeated the Megids looks like. I didn't expect you to come so soon. This must be fate. Gensou, have you ever heard of the Lord of Truth? That is me. It's nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you? That doesn't seem right."

However, facing the smiling Lord of Truth, Gensou's expression was not very good, even somewhat nasty, which made Reika Kamishiro's face also turn bad. The Kamishiro family has served the Lord of Truth for generations. Although she has only been working for a short time, it is precisely for this reason that she must do her job well so as not to embarrass her brother.

Therefore, Reika Kamishiro stepped forward without hesitation, gripped the hilt of her sword, and said in a deep voice:

"Mr. Yuanxiang, although your deeds are commendable, this is not a time for you to be arrogant in front of the Holy Lord. Please watch your attitude!"

"I'm just stating a fact."

Genji completely ignored Reika Kamishiro, staring directly at the Holy Lord of Truth and saying:

"We must have met before, and we've even fought each other, haven't we?"

"Yuanxiang...you must have mistaken me for someone else."

The Holy Lord of Truth, resting his chin on his hand, looked at Gensou with an expression as if watching a child play, and said:

"Although I admire you, I'm going to have a real headache if you keep talking nonsense like this."

"Joker".

Yuanxiang pointed directly at the Lord of Truth, calling out his companion's name. Then, he beckoned his finger back, and everyone saw a line of blood suddenly burst open on the Lord of Truth's palm. A wisp of purplish-black energy burst out from it, turning into mist and disappearing. At the same time, the others also noticed energy fluctuations of the same origin as that mist erupting from Yuanxiang's body.

“When I was dealing with the three executives of Megid, I was about to finish them off, but someone intervened and saved them, and even tried to kill me. However, I don’t have any advantages, except that I’m tough. My strength is the same. So, Lord of Truth, you were too careless and underestimated me.”

Gensou took out the Lost Driver, fastened it to his waist, and looked at the person on the throne, saying softly:

"Alright, what excuse do you have? If you're going to explain, why don't you also explain why you deceived the master of the Dark Sword Moonlit Night, Hayato Fukamiya, for fifteen years to create chaos, causing him to betray the Sword of Truth and attempt to gain so-called power?"

"Yuanxiang! Do you know what you're saying?!"

The amount of information was overwhelming, and Reika Kamishiro was momentarily stunned. But she immediately drew her holy sword and coldly shouted:

"You are utterly absurd! The Sword of Truth is an organization that protects the world, and the Holy Lord of Truth is the one who guides the swordsmen forward. How can you be allowed to slander us like this!"

'kouchuudaihyakka (Encyclopedia of Insects)'

After speaking, Reika Kamishiro took out a fantasy riding book, placed it in her palm, and gently blew on it, producing a sound effect:

'A segment of this ill-fated flock, fluttering and dreaming...'

"henshin!"

Reika Kamishiro stuffed the Book of Fantasy Control into the hilt of the Holy Sword, and a hazy yellow mist immediately billowed out, enveloping her body.

"The war begins! Flying! Smog! Sting! Steam! The Encyclopedia of Insects! The Floating Edge of Sharpness!"

'Phew~~~'

As the smoke dissipated, Kamen Rider Sabela appeared in the room, but Genji still stared intently at the Lord of Truth, waiting for him to continue. At the same time, the Gaia Memory from the Scales was quietly activated, locking onto the person seated. Meanwhile, Yuri also sensed the heavy atmosphere and silently took out the Light and Dark Holy Swords, ready to deal with the impact from the fragments of the Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence.

"you......."

Both Genjiro and Yuri's attitudes showed their contempt for her, which made Reika Kamishiro furious. With a low shout, she turned into a wisp of smoke and swirled towards Genjiro and Yuri, wanting to take down these two guys first before dealing with anything else.

As Reika Kamishiro launched her attack, Gengo and Yuri were both enveloped in smoke, as if Kamen Rider Sabela's swords were everywhere. At this moment, Yuri calmly raised the Holy Sword of Light to block Reika Kamishiro's sudden attack, and then casually slashed with the Holy Sword of Darkness, but Reika Kamishiro immediately turned into smoke and disappeared.

At the same time, Gengo suddenly turned around and kicked, and Kamen Rider Sabela, who was hidden in the smoke, was kicked into a "《" shape by the attack with the power of 'Joker'. She was sent flying backward and crashed hard into the wall, where she was embedded. She fell to the ground and struggled to get up, but Reika Kamishiro felt as if some force was raging in her body, and her limbs were weak from the pain.

Of course, that was just Reika Kamishiro's illusion. The 'luna' energy hidden in 'joker' caused her to fall into a hallucination, mistakenly believing that she had been seriously injured by Genji.

After Reika Kamishiro was defeated, the Lord of Truth on the throne suddenly sneered. His fingers lightly tapped the cover of the incomplete Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence, as if he had instantly become a different person, and he said softly:

“Interesting, interesting. You’re really unpredictable. But don’t think you can slander me just because you open and close your mouth. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Now, you two, hand over the Holy Sword and the Book of Fantasy Ride. Considering your previous achievement of defeating Megid, I will let you off the hook.”

You are lying.

Gengo grasped the 'Libra' memory; the red light emanating from it was exceptionally dazzling. Seeing this reaction, the boy realized something was amiss with this True Saint, so he whispered:

"Fang!"

'roar!!'

Hearing the call from its companion, the little dinosaur, which had been sleeping inside the coat, was immediately awakened. It transformed into white mist and flew out, rushing towards the driver on its waist. At the same time, the driver attached to its waist also showed a distorted light phenomenon, which was still an illusion from 'Luna'. Genji had just attached the dual driver. After all, the book in the hands of the True Saint was known as 'omniscient and omnipotent'. Even if it was a fragment, it should still have a backup plan to confuse the enemy.

"Fang! Fang!"

As the frost erupted, the ferocious Kamen Rider appeared before everyone. The destructive power of nothingness instantly eroded a groove around Genji. This power drew everyone's attention, especially that of the True Lord. He had originally thought the black-gold form was the limit of this guy's power, but he hadn't expected him to possess such hidden strength—this near-ultimate 'destruction'...

It suits my taste perfectly.

The Lord of Truth grunted twice, his meaning unclear. Looking at the fang-like blade energy rushing towards him, he calmly picked up the fragment of the Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence and used it to block in front of him. The crimson power that erupted immediately blocked the attack. Then, with a casual wave of his hand, the chilling blade energy was dispersed.

It is indeed the power that governs this world. Although it is not complete, ordinary efforts would probably not be enough to contend with it.

Genji's expression turned somewhat serious, but this was expected. He would first use the power of 'fang·fang' to fight, and if his body couldn't hold on, he would use 'joker' or 'cyclone' to reach his limit. However... if this world were a book, wouldn't 'cyclone' be more suitable?

"Do you still have the mind to think about anything else?"

The Lord of Truth waved his hand again, unleashing the power from the incomplete scroll. Genji roared, and a phantom of a dinosaur skull appeared, swallowing the attack whole. Then, Genji's arms trembled, brandishing his arm blades, and he charged towards the Lord of Truth. In an instant, the red and white figures in the hall were like ghosts, dazzling the eye. Yuri, who had originally intended to help, leaned against the wall with a subtle expression, gripping his twin swords. When he secretly followed Touma Kamiyama out of the Lost Land, he had heard the swordsmen mention Genji's strength, but that was, after all, the Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence; even an incomplete scroll was still too…

Well, it seems like this is none of my business.

Yuri glanced at Reika Kamishiro, who was struggling to break free from the illusion, and silently placed the Dark Sword Moon against her neck.

I'll keep an eye on the others to prevent them from causing any more trouble for Gensou... Hmm?

Just then, alarm bells suddenly rang in Yuri's mind. The surge of crisis made him subconsciously use the Holy Sword as a shield to protect himself. On the other side, Genji, who was fighting against the Holy Lord of Truth, was also surprised to see that the guy in front of him actually chose to use the fragment in his hand to withstand his attack. He used this to free up his hands and launched a surprise attack on Yuri.

This fierce attack was extremely heavy for Yuri at this moment. At the same time, Genji's claws landed on the fragment of the Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence. In an instant, a terrifying energy shock suddenly erupted, sending Genji and the Lord of Truth flying away. Moreover, the Lord of Truth flew towards the very place where Yuri was.

"Luna!"

Seeing this, Gensou did not hesitate to forcefully switch the memory data, breaking through the interference of the fragment's power, locking onto Yuri, exchanging reality and illusion, and pulling him to his side. However, the actions of the Holy Lord of Truth did not stop in the slightest. With the energy of the Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence erupting, his and Reika Kamishiro's figures disappeared instantly.

"They ran away? That shouldn't be possible..."

Yuri frowned slightly. Although Gensou's destructive power was strong, it was unlikely that he could leave any damage on the fragment with just the effort he had just exerted. Gensou also sensed that the guy didn't seem to be fighting him at full strength and was probably plotting something.

"Let's get out of here first."

Yuri heard the commotion outside the hall. He figured the swordsmen from the South Base had noticed the fighting and rushed over. The South Base was different from the North Base. While the swordsmen there might not be the strongest, they were numerous. Getting entangled there could waste a lot of time.

and.....

With such a huge commotion here, why hasn't Ryoga Kamishiro appeared?

As Gensho pondered this, he opened the 'Door of the Book,' but the door he had envisioned did not appear.

"The access to this book has been blocked. It seems that the Holy Lord of Truth did quite a bit before he left."

Yuri saw the key point and explained it to Gengo. The boy, hearing the approaching footsteps, showed no sign of panic. Instead, he took out 'Luna' and with a slight flick, the swordsmen from the South Base who had arrived were trapped in an illusion. Watching the swordsmen completely powerless under the moonlight, Gengo calmly took a book from their bodies and opened the door to leave. His destination was naturally the North Base. For some reason, the actions of the True Lord in attacking Yuri and taking away Reika Kamishiro made Gengo vaguely aware of the danger. He felt that the 'swordsmen' seemed to be the True Lord's real target.

"Wait, what's going on?"

Upon returning to the North District base, Genji was astonished to find the hall even more chaotic than when he left. He muttered in surprise, frantically searching for the swordsmen and others. Finally, he found Touma Kamiyama, Rintaro Shindo, and the others among the fallen bookshelves. He tried to rouse them from their unconscious state using Ripple, but at the same time, he discovered that their sacred swords and the Book of Mystic Riding were also gone. At this moment, Rintaro Shindo was the first to awaken, his lips trembling as he murmured:

"Sophia... Lady Sophia has been kidnapped..."

267 My divine power!!

"What exactly happened?"

Genshou frowned as he helped all the swordsmen from the South District base to their feet. He then used wave energy to heal them while surveying the surroundings. It didn't look like the place had been attacked by the Lord of Truth. The blackened marks on the walls and the charred debris on the floor seemed to indicate that the attack came from someone else.

"It was my fault......"

At this moment, Tomika-no-miya Kento closed his eyes in anguish, leaned against the wall, and whispered:

"It was my Book Gate that was stolen, which led to the invasion of this North District base. It's all my fault..."

“A wise man should not take all the responsibility upon himself.”

Ryo Onoue reached out and gently patted Kento Fukamiya's shoulder, clutching his shoulder with a pained expression, and said:

"We failed to stop the invaders, which is why..."

"Alright, now's not the time for you to scramble to take the blame. Tell me right now, what exactly happened?!"

Gengo frowned, looking annoyed, and slammed his hand on the floor, interrupting them. At that moment, Touma Kamiyama explained in a low voice that after Gengo left, the North District base began to take action to prove what Daido Kamijou had said.

But as soon as Fujimiya Kento left the North District base, he was attacked by an unknown swordsman. The swordsman was extremely powerful and his swordsmanship was superb. He also seemed to have the ability to resurrect. Not to mention Fujimiya Kento, even if the swordsmen in the North District base joined forces, they would not be his match. In an instant, the place was breached.

Strangely, just as the mysterious swordsman was about to kill Kamiyama Touma and the others, a pale red vortex suddenly appeared out of thin air, teleporting the swordsman away. But what disappeared with him was also Kamiyama Touma and the others' holy sword, the Book of Fantasy Riding, and the manager of this place, Sophia.

"What good luck!"
