Crossover anime, starting with Hachiman Hikigaya replacing Subaru Natsuki!

The Carlsten Mansion, the Hossin Chamber of Commerce, and Priscilla's Mansion were all quiet, each place holding its breath, the people inside gazing sharply at the future.

Even with a happy ending, and before the Archbishops of Sin come to a close, they will not relax, and in their hearts, they will torment Regulus and Syluès to pieces again and again!

As soon as a solution to deal with these two people emerges in the future, they will remember it, make the necessary preparations, and then go to find the traces of the Archbishops of Sin and completely exterminate Regulus and Syrus.

"Bang!"

In the room, things were broken one after another, and pure white porcelain pieces were smashed on the pure white floor.

In his agitation, Regulus even casually waved his hand, killing several of his wives nearby. Their blood became the only color in the pure white room that wasn't white, making it extremely jarring.

"How dare you violate my right to marry, my right to follow the Gospels, my right to safety, my right to violate me, violate me, violate me, violate me—you are already so gifted, yet you still dare to violate me! I say, no matter how generous, magnanimous, and polite I am, I will still be angry! Hachiman Hikigaya, Reinhard!!"

More importantly, in the future, he actually attempts to marry that half-demon.

And they even failed to snatch him?!

"You shameless, lewd, and depraved half-demon who has already kissed other men, who doesn't uphold the virtues of a wife and doesn't know how to protect yourself as my wife, who doesn't cooperate with me to leave and become my wife, you are the utter bastard!!!"

312. The Fallen Water Gate City

“The ugly thing has tainted my heart.”

Inside the mansion, Priscilla's voice was icy. Even in her view, the Archbishops of Sin were far too filthy and disgusting, especially Sylures's emotional manipulation and shared harm.

"You dare to link with the fool I've set my sights on! Those things belong to me, and you dare to steal them—you are sentenced to death, Syluès!"

Her kill list has been ruthlessly expanded with another addition.

At the Karlsten mansion, Crusch covered her face, too ashamed to face anyone, and muttered, "It's unbearable to look at."

In the battle against the Archbishop of Wrath, her amnesiac state made her clumsy and slow in combat, leaving her with far too many openings. Had she not been so weak, Hachiman-sama would at least have avoided the injury of being whipped by the burning chains.

"As expected... amnesia is not the best solution. Even if it makes it easier to get closer to Lord Hachiman, it will also hold him back. I will not allow this to happen!"

Crusch was determined to protect her Lord Hachiman. Whether it was for Lord Hachiman, for herself, or for Phyllis and everyone who supported her, she absolutely could not lose her memory.

Crusch was heartbroken by her weakness after losing her memory.

"…this……!!"

On the road to the capital, Rem's demon horns rose, her eyes turned bloodshot, and she gritted her teeth, staring hatefully at the garrulous giant baby fighting Reinhard in the dust.

"Dare to harm Rem's Hachiman, violate Rem's Hachiman, and place yourself above the Hachiman... Regulus Corneas... Rem will make you suffer a terrible death!!"

Compared to Syrus, she hated Regulus the most. He was the culprit who brought Hachiman to the brink of death, and he also wanted to take Emilia away as his wife.

"If Lady Emilia could voluntarily give up on Hachiman and leave Hachiman, Rem would certainly be very happy, but that would be on the premise that Lady Emilia is willing."

"Lady Emilia loves Hachiman deeply, and she wants to live as Hachiman's wife, so she belongs to Hachiman. However, Regulus wants to take Lady Emilia away, to steal the person Hachiman cherishes. He is robbing Hachiman of what belongs to him, and he wants to bring shame upon Hachiman!"

"Therefore—Rem absolutely will not allow it, Rem will absolutely not forgive it!"

Therefore, the most vicious one is this giant baby bishop!

"Rem most wants to kill you, Regulus Chornias!!"

Rem's love for Hachiman Hikigaya was so selfless. She didn't feel joy that her rival almost lost one of his lovers; instead, she hated the scene.

This shocked Ram... She held her sister tightly, feeling incredibly proud to have such a gentle sister.

"So close, so very close..."

Inside the convenience store, Hachiman Hikigaya watched the video with lingering fear, then couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

His own situation is unimportant, but the fact that Emilia was almost taken away by Regulus just now really made him nervous... It wasn't because he loved Emilia and felt he would be cheated on, but because the person Emilia loved was not Regulus.

Everyone should have the right to pursue their own love. If Emilia is kidnapped, she will lose her future and dreams about love. Such a vicious thing is something that Hachiman Hikigaya absolutely cannot allow to happen.

Fortunately, thankfully there was Reinhard.

Hachiman Hikigaya glanced around the convenience store. Many people inside were sighing and lamenting, their pessimism fueled by Syrus's disgusting power.

However, the usually pessimistic Hachiman Hikigaya has now become the most optimistic person in the shop... The reason is simple: he deeply trusts Priscilla's good fortune.

Priscilla is an arrogant bastard who tramples on the dignity of others, but no matter how bad she is, her character is still a thousand times better than that of the Archbishops of Sin. If she learns that the Archbishops of Sin have appeared in Watergate City and ruined her good mood, Priscilla will definitely be willing to help.

Hachiman Hikigaya believed that her incredible luck would allow her to find a way to fight Syrus by sheer chance.

"When you're competing with Anastasia and Priscilla, you realize how troublesome and powerful they are. But when you're on their side, you realize how reliable they are!"

Hachiman Hikigaya firmly believed in the strength and reliability of these people, but this trust was temporarily overshadowed by a deep sense of surprise and sigh in the next second.

"—Capella Emeralda Lugnica, Archbishop of Lust, of the Witch Cult."

"After waking up from his sickbed, Hachiman Hikigaya learned of this name from the people who came to see him: the third Archbishop of Sin in Minato City."

"Through Emilia's explanation, he learned about the aftermath of his coma and near-death experience."

"Julius, who was with Reinhard at the time, also arrived quickly and saw Hachiman Hikigaya lying on the ground near death. He immediately helped carry him out and also helped rescue the people under the tower and the Rusbel siblings."

"After getting away from Reinhard, Beatrice was finally able to use Mana. While crying, she used healing magic to save Hachiman Hikigaya's life, bringing him back from the brink of death. Then, together with Emilia, she treated other injured or even dying people."

"Because Emilia's healing magic skills are far inferior to Beatrice's, many people on the verge of death can only be healed by Beatrice."

"So in the end, Emilia was just exhausted and only needed some rest, but Beatrice overused Mana and thus fell into a deep sleep."

"Emilia took out one of the magic crystals used to wake Puck and gave it to Beatrice, so Beatrice is not in any danger. She is currently absorbing the mana from the magic crystal while she is asleep. She will wake up automatically after she finishes absorbing it, and it won't be long."

"Reinhard and Regulus are locked in a stalemate, fighting fiercely until now, leaving that area in ruins. Neither side shows any sign of defeat, and because both are too powerful, no one else can intervene; they can only observe from afar."

"In other words, Regulus has been kept occupied by Reinhard and there's no need to consider his existence."

"During this period, manpower was organized in Anastasia to find and confront Syluès."

"But before she could make any preparations, the four sluice gates of Watergate City were suddenly captured by the Witch Cult in a surprise attack, and the City Hall, which had the Broadcasting Meteor, was also taken over by the Witch Cult."

"After that, the fearful people heard a broadcast throughout the city."

"A broadcast from the third Archbishop of Sin, Archbishop Capella of Lust."

313. Sister Anna

"The remains of a witch."

"Sitting in the simple, hastily prepared hall, Anastasia, who had changed from her kimono back into more practical everyday clothes and was wearing a Dona fox cloak, explained with a hint of fatigue on her face."

"That was the target of the Witch Cult's surprise attack on Watergate City; they wanted the witch's remains."

"According to Mr. Kiritaka, one of the ten highest-ranking members of the Watergate City, this city was once built to hunt down a being—the arrogant witch Typhon from four hundred years ago."

"Typhon's remains—that's the Witch Cult's target."

"Typhon... Hachiman Hikigaya remembers this name. He was one of the witches who kept Echidna company in the Sanctuary's grave. He never expected to meet her here in this one-sided way."

"So, the Witch Cult wasn't drawn to us, the candidates, but rather it was a calamity for Watergate City itself?"

"Saying this, Hachiman Hikigaya looked at Kiritaka, the simple headquarters of the Witch Cult's Disaster Countermeasures, where the following people were currently seated:"

"Hachiman Hikigaya, Anastasia, Crusch, Emilia, Julius, Garfield, Ricardo, Julius, Wilhelm, Al, and Kiritaka."

"Please don't try to pressure me with this kind of talk, Mr. Hachiman. Although it's true that Minato City has implicated you all, I will definitely take responsibility and will not conceal any crucial information."

"Kiritaka took a deep breath. "Beneath this city lies Typhon's remains, and only the ten of us know their exact location. But we also know something else... Once these remains are moved, the entire Watergate city will overturn and sink into the water."

"So, there's no possibility of compromise?"

"Regarding Crusch's reassurance, Hachiman Hikigaya shook his head slightly, rejecting the idea: 'I can't be at ease. The Witch Cult will definitely send people to kidnap the Ten-Person Guild. Perhaps one or two of those ten will disregard the entire Minato City just to save their own lives.'"

“It’s a harsh word, but I understand your concerns,” Kiritaka said. “That’s why I’ve sent the White Dragon Scales to invite the remaining nine members of the Ten, and I will stay here myself. I won’t inform the Witch Cult.”

"After watching Hachiman Hikigaya and Kiritaka finish their exchange, Anastasia clapped her hands together, setting the tone for dealing with the Witch Cult."

"Yes, there's no choice between compromise or surrender. Those who offend us, we don't want them to live to see the next day. I think you all feel the same way, right?"

"She looked around and all she saw were murderous faces... Everyone was firmly committed to the Witch Doctor's Eagle card, and that reaction was reassuring."

"--What!?"

In the water gate city, everyone was dumbfounded, looking at each other in disbelief.

The witch's remains... It turns out that the city of Minato itself was the main reason that attracted the Witch Cult. In other words, the fact that the five candidate factions gathered in Minato at this time actually saved the city's life and became its saviors.

The five candidate camps, including Emilia, who was targeted by Regulus and Syluès, were actually victims of undeserved misfortune; they could have lived peacefully.

With their strength, if they didn't fight the Archbishops of Sin and simply wanted to break out of Watergate City, each faction could easily do it.

But they didn't. They stayed behind, risking their lives to fight the Witch Cult for the sake of Watergate City and its people.

"I...we...what did we do? I was just complaining about Lady Emilia, complaining about Lady Anastasia, I...I...waaaaah..."

In the city of Watergate, a woman in her twenties, filled with shame and conscience, covered her face and knelt down in deep remorse. Starting with her, those who had previously harbored resentment towards Anastasia and Emilia in their hearts began to realize their mistakes.

Not only in Watergate City, but people in other places were also stunned.

After witnessing Regulus's desire to abduct Emilia as his wife, and Syluès's jealousy and hatred towards Emilia, everyone basically concluded that Emilia was the one who brought about this great sin.

But that's not the case at all; in fact, Emilia is quite innocent.

“Our prejudice against Emilia is still too severe. Although it’s not as severe as the prejudice against people from other worlds, we still see that Roswaal and Petitschius were brought here by her, and Hachiman died so many times because of her.”

"So this time, I subconsciously felt it was also because of Emilia..."

At the Kousaka residence, Kousaka Kyosuke sat upright, washing away his prejudices.

From this moment on, the people of both worlds finally abandoned the view that Emilia was a jinx.

"Then, Garfield raised his hand, "I also have information to share."

Everyone remained silent and looked at him. Garfield began his description: "This old man went out with Mimi this morning, and after noon we heard the Archbishop of Sin's broadcast, so we went for a stroll around the city hall."

"At that time, many people had already been murdered by that bastard Archbishop of Sin. She also had two guards at the entrance, one a man with eight arms and the other a woman who wielded a sword. In order to save people, I briefly exchanged blows with them, and both of them were slightly stronger than me."

"If I hadn't kept in mind what the general said—that I shouldn't act impulsively in any situation—and had run away after just one try, I might already have lost."

"I have endless admiration for my general. I know that without the general's constant guidance over the past year, I, with my volatile and impulsive temper, would not have been so willing to accept the fact that I am not as good as others."

"In that case, maybe I would have died with Mimi by my own impulsiveness."

"Oh, right, those two were dead," he added. "I don't know how to describe it...like dead people, like puppets, definitely not normal living people."
