Crossover anime, starting with Hachiman Hikigaya replacing Subaru Natsuki!

The gun went off accidentally, and a stray bullet struck him squarely in the head and heart, killing him instantly.

Nevertheless, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji felt no fear whatsoever; he was only excited.

Indeed, only oneself truly understands oneself. The fact that Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Setsuna used this special method in the future has really excited him to no end, and his emotions have become even richer.

That would definitely be a worthwhile investment.

As long as it benefits him in gaining affection or playing against Hachiman Hikigaya, then it can be considered an action that maximizes his benefits.

"but……"

At the same time, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji also had something he cared about very much.

All four cars were damaged together, and the damage happened to be related to the live broadcast. To say that there was no mastermind behind this would be to seriously underestimate his masterpiece.

"What exactly is your purpose, Mr. Mastermind?"

In stark contrast to the cheerful Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, within the royal palace, the First Princess Freya, her eyes blazing with fury, was practically turning her blood upside down; she was so angry she was on the verge of becoming seriously ill.

"Why? Why? Why?! Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, Kyal, Setsuna, you lowly commoners, all of you, die!!"

When they aired the footage of her murder, the entire scene was shown.

However, when the video of Setsuna is played now, some blurry images have been blurred, which effectively protects Setsuna's privacy.

This differential treatment dealt another devastating blow to the already furious First Princess Freya, causing her to vomit blood on the spot.

Even so, no foolish guard dared to approach her, help her up, or treat her.

In stark contrast to Freya's treatment, in the Ice Wolf Clan demi-human village far outside the royal city, she was instantly cheered and fawned over by everyone.

Regardless of Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's true intentions, it doesn't stop him from saving their village, and that's enough.

For some reason, they sensed an aura emanating from Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, an aura of absolute confidence that made them believe he would inevitably unify the world.

As one of Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's concubines, Setsuna will be able to bring glory to their village and their race.

"Before that day comes, everyone should pack their things and go to take refuge."

To prevent the kingdom from taking its anger out on them after losing face, the village chief immediately made a decision, ordering everyone to embark on a journey away from their homes to the legendary city where humans and demons lived in harmony.

"Waaah..."

With her head down and ears drooping, she shyly covered her eyes, but peeked through a crack at herself in the light screen above, watching Ayanokouji Kiyotaka wantonly playing with her.

For a moment, she was completely mesmerized. Her face flushed red, and she was irresistibly drawn to Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's unique charm. She stammered, "I love you, I love you so much, Setsuna loves you so much, Kiyotaka-sama..."

This love is cheap; it has nothing to do with heart or feelings. It's simply being attracted by that kind of temperament and that kind of power, like a moth drawn to a flame.

The moment she fell in love with Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, she began to loathe Hachiman Hikigaya, whom she had never met, because she longed to call out Kiyotaka-sama's name while they were doing it!

452. The Beginning of the Overlord

"The next day, after returning to the demi-human village with Setsuna and the others, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka calculated that there was a more than 90% chance that the army would attack the village that night."

"So he bid farewell to the demi-people, claiming he was going to find a helper... Although some people thought he was trying to desert his post, Setsuna, who had been completely conquered by her stick, stood up to protect his reputation, allowing Ayanokoji Kiyotaka to set off with peace of mind."

"The trail ended here... Damn it, where did that imposter go?!"

"When Kiyotaka Ayanokoji finally returned to the place where he had rested the day before, Kleigh had finally caught up with him and was gritting her teeth in hatred."

"Are you looking for me?"

The voice behind her startled Kresh. She drew her sword and turned around, seeing Ayanokouji Kiyotaka with his face covered. Overjoyed, she exclaimed, "Finally caught you! Don't even think about escaping again, you bastard! Impersonating me and murdering such a loyal warrior, your crime is unforgivable!"

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka said, 'Then, come with me.'"

"What?" Kleigh frowned in surprise. "What are you up to? Are you trying to lure me into a trap?"

"Come with me to watch a performance. After it's over, if you still decide to kill me, then I won't resist and you can do as you please."

"Kreeh laughed, 'Do you think I'm that stupid? Such an obvious trap!'"

"We've sparred no less than five times along the way. You should know my strength; we're evenly matched. Now that you have such a good opportunity, don't you want to seize it?"

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka calmly used a simple provocation, 'Or is it that one of the three heroes, the renowned Sword Saint, is actually afraid of the trap set by an unknown nobody like me?'"

"Upon hearing this, Kresh's brows furrowed, and she became agitated. Pointing her sword to the sky to express her courage, she fiercely declared, 'What—how dare you underestimate me like this, underestimate me, the Sword Saint! Fine, I'll go then. Even if it's a trap, I'm not afraid. Lead the way, you imposter!'"

"This swordsman is almost as gullible as little Emilia, isn't he?"

Gathered at the Sword Saint's mansion, Theresa twitched her lips, sighed while holding her forehead, and then slapped her good-for-nothing son—the same son Reinhard's father from the Watergate City.

Back when she was a zombie soldier, Theresa had already wanted to teach her son a lesson when she saw him bullying her beloved grandson Reinhard and her husband Wilhelm.

Just like now, hang them up and beat them.

"Ouch, ouch... I was wrong, Mom, I know I was wrong, I'll go apologize to Reinhard... Ouch!"

None of the people present paid any attention to the guy who was howling in pain. Fortuna, who was a guest there, was the same. She shook her head and denied it, saying, "The Emilia of today is not so easy to fool. After being trained by Hachiman, Emilia has grown a lot."

“That’s true,” Theresa nodded. “Not only in terms of intelligence, but also in terms of combat power, this Sword Saint Kreh is no match for the weakest of our past Sword Saints.”

Wilhelm suddenly interjected, "But he is indeed a promising talent."

"I know, she has considerable talent, has already developed some skills, and has sound values. In that case..."

Theresa stopped halfway through her sentence.

She was willing to take Krech as her apprentice and teach her diligently, but on the condition that Krech would not follow Ayanokoji Kiyotaka to cause trouble for Hikigaya Hachiman, which was absolutely unacceptable.

In short, let's see how things develop.

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka led Kreh all the way back, and finally returned to the outskirts of the Ice Wolf Clan's village at nightfall."

"At this moment, the mercenaries disguised as bandits also arrived and began fighting with the Ice Wolf Clan. Kreh was shocked to see this: "Bandits? No, no, I have to hurry—"

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka remained noncommittal. "Bandits? Hmm~ You might want to take a closer look."

"Huh?" Kresh frowned, but still subconsciously did as he was told. Then her eyes widened, and she stumbled back three steps, her face filled with disbelief, trembling as she said, "No, this can't be!"

"What's impossible? Could the Sword Saint have poor eyesight and make a mistake?" Kiyotaka Ayanokouji deliberately provoked Krech, forcing her to admit reality.

"Those weren't bandits, but an army, and some of them were people Kleigh knew. Kleigh had always thought these were loyal men upholding justice, but now—"

"After seeing them, would you like to see who I am?"

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka removed the black cloth, revealing Kyal's face, which made the already distraught Kree even more astonished."

"Shh~ Don't talk, be quiet, I'll show you something good." Ayanokouji Kiyotaka squatted down, placed his hand on Kreeher's face, and then used the skill he gained from healing to transfer some memories and images to Kreeher.

"Of course not those images of him being gang-raped by women and men for months. That kind of thing would only evoke Kreeher's sympathy for him, not establish his authority, which goes against his goal."

"What he transmitted were some memories belonging to the First Princess Freya, and the dirty parts within them were stirring up Kreh's shattering loyalty to the kingdom."

"Immediately afterwards, instead of forcing Kreeher to betray them, Kiyotaka Ayanokouji gave her a world and space to be alone, and then jumped out to act as the savior of the Ice Wolf Clan."

"The skills are complex and diverse, but each one has a low upper limit and level of strength. It is difficult for an ordinary person to use these things to create a master. Instead, they will be flustered and just use the skills in an ordinary way."

"But Ayanokoji Kiyotaka is different."

"As the White House's greatest masterpiece, his wisdom, his memory, and his real-time strategy all support him in flexibly utilizing dozens or even hundreds of complex skills, combining them at the most appropriate time."

"But will doing this successfully eliminate an army?"

"...Absolutely, easily!"

"If he cannot do that, then he is absolutely not the unshakeable king of the White House, and he is absolutely not the greatest masterpiece, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka!"

""ah……""

"The Ice Wolf Clan members were all stunned, staring blankly at Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's solo performance."

"It was more like a dance than a martial art. It was as if Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was dancing, effortlessly and swiftly defeating an elite army of the kingdom without sustaining any injuries."

"This power is firmly imprinted in their hearts, becoming the basis for their submission to Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, and their deep worship."

453. Hell's Ruler, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji (Part 1)

Kreece slumped to the ground. Now it was clear to her that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka had been holding back all along. It wasn't a matter of evenly matched strength; she was no match for him at all!

"Oh! Oh! Lord Kyal is the strongest! Kyal is the number one in the world!"

"The demi-humans of the Ice Wolf Clan were completely convinced and celebrated and cheered for their new king. No one blamed Ayanokouji Kiyotaka for being late... because they dared not."

"The hidden aura of Ayanokoji Kiyotaka allows them to make the most correct decisions."

"They cleaned up the battlefield, looted the spoils, and then prepared to stay up all night for a celebration party, drinking and eating to their hearts' content. As for Setsuna, covered in blood, she didn't want to approach Lord Hachiman, whom she wanted to sleep with, in such an ugly state, so she went to take a bath."

Dejected after suffering a double blow, a dejected Kree looked at Ayanokouji Kiyotaka who was walking back and couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking? What are you doing? What are your intentions, Kyal?"

"These are the questions I also want to ask you, Sword Saint Kreeher. What are you thinking, what are you planning to do, and what are your intentions?"

"The ball was kicked back, and Kreeher remained silent. She stared at Ayanokouji Kiyotaka for a while before finally figuring it out. Her IQ wasn't so low that she couldn't see something so obvious."

"You're planning a rebellion, aren't you, Kyal?"

"Does this kingdom meet your expectations?" Ayanokoji Kiyotaka smiled at her. "Such darkness, such ruin, such a kingdom—do you still hold onto any hope?"

“But…” Kreeher bit her lower lip, “Can you do it? The kingdom has an even stronger army, two brave warriors and two heroes—these are all beyond my capabilities, not to mention the king.”

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka didn't say anything, he just stared at her."

"What should have been a sign of guilt came out of him with an aggressive and oppressive force that made Kree breathless. She tried to meet Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's gaze, but quickly gave in, panting heavily."

She attempted a final stand: "But can you guarantee that after you overthrow the kingdom, the people will have a better life?"

"These rebuttals were not actually her way of trying to overpower Ayanokouji Kiyotaka. As soon as Ayanokouji Kiyotaka revealed his true face, she made up her mind to follow Ayanokouji Kiyotaka and atone for her sins."

"These rebuttals are merely her fig leaf, used to exhaust the last vestiges of her loyalty to the kingdom, so as to avoid feeling ashamed of becoming a two-faced slave."

"So Kreeher didn't expect an answer at all; she just wanted to ask a question."

"but…"

"He spoke up."

"Smile," said Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.

"In my kingdom, I am the god of all. No nobleman, no commoner, are all my slaves, my livestock. If I want anyone to die, they should immediately commit suicide along with their families."

"If I take a fancy to any man's wife, he should wash and strip his mother and daughter naked and send them to me. No one can disobey me, no one has the right to defy me. I am above all things in this world, and I control everything of everyone."
