Crossover anime, starting with Hachiman Hikigaya replacing Subaru Natsuki!

"Excuse me, what were you saying just now?"

Feeling someone pat him on the shoulder, Pao Yong Brad was startled, then frowned and turned around impatiently.

"I'm talking to Jian Yong. Who do you think you are? What right do you have to ask me questions? Don't you have any sense of hierarchy? Do you want to be violated by me?!"

What came into view was a gentle man with murderous eyes. He slowly raised his arm, clenched his fist, and uttered the last words that Pao Yong would ever hear in his life: "I am Reinhard."

……

This day is the day darkness falls and the day the sun rises.

Tanks and airplanes blasted open the gates of the royal city, and Shaula's laser needles instantly extinguished the desire for revenge of the first princess, the second princess, and the king.

Reinhard forgot to hold back with his first punch, accidentally turning the Cannon Warrior into a molecule. Fortunately, he remembered in his second punch and only knocked out the Sword Warrior, sending him to prison.

As for the other dirty places, they enjoyed the massive AoE skills from Roswaal and the dragon, which were enough to change the terrain.

In short, given the huge gap in strength between the two sides, apart from a few top experts in the Kyal world who could put up a fight, the rest were basically terrified.

Those who resisted received either the hospitality of intercontinental ballistic missiles or the sight of cyan lightning flashes from swords.

A battle that could be described as a one-sided massacre came to an easy end.

But most of them were initially just caught and imprisoned, then investigated and evidence was collected... This is not because anyone wants to whitewash these beasts.

The investigation and evidence collection served two purposes: firstly, to silence certain hypocritical sympathizers, and secondly, to legitimize the public humiliation.

After all, nobody felt that shooting these people would be satisfying. Although no one wanted to resort to the kind of lewd violence that Ayanokoji Kiyotaka did, a public parade in accordance with public opinion was still a good thing.

"What are your thoughts?"

"...Do I still have a chance to submit to Ayanokouji's Tyrannosaurus Rex now?"

Princess Norn's desperate attempt to change her death sentence to slavery was ruthlessly rejected, as investigations revealed that she had already taken more than 100 innocent lives.

The death penalty is one of the four great scourges of the kingdom!

The King, Freya, Noron, and Breed—these were the four most wicked men—and after their heads fell to the ground in the square, the onlookers erupted in a deafening clamor.

The vast majority of those cheering were ordinary people from the world of Kyal.

Although they were initially at a loss due to the merging of the world, Reinhard easily comforted them after obtaining a blessing that could soothe their hearts and enhance the credibility of his words.

According to Reinhard's explanation, the residents also learned that when the world merges, the kingdom will be gone; when the world merges, the bad guys will die; and when the world merges, good days will come!

In that case, there's nothing to worry about.

On Earth, they did indeed keep their promise. After killing the king, they killed the princess, then the hero. After killing the hero, there was still a long line of nobles waiting to be executed. For a short period of time, there were execution scenes to watch every day. It was quite a treat.

However, this is only what the general public cares about most.

At the same time, the higher-ups were holding intensive meetings to decide the future of the world of Kyal.

In addition to the representatives of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and the representatives of the four countries of the Emilia world, this meeting also included Hachiman Hikigaya and Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, as well as Kalman, Setsuna, the Sword Saint Kree, the Lord of Branica Castle, and Ries.

And Kyal and Kyal's sister.

"We have no objection to exchanging goods and resources with your two worlds. We also have no objection to your request to resolve racial prejudices as soon as possible so that humans, demi-humans and demons can live in harmony."

"We have only one request: please ensure that the Earth Emperor continues to rule us!"

On the Kyal side, apart from Kyal and his sister, all the representatives unanimously put forward the above statement.

In fact, it's not just them; according to opinion polls, over 90% of the residents of the world of Kyal also share this view.

They've all been manipulated by Ayanokouji Kiyotaka into believing they can't live without this Earth Emperor, and are now his loyal dogs.

Logically speaking, since neither Earth nor the Emilia world intends to annex the Kyal world by force, there should be no problem in respecting each other's reasonable demands.

This request from the other party will also bring them great benefits.

but……

The problem lies with Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.

The thought of this masterpiece acting so recklessly in the video filled almost everyone with worry, and they were very reluctant to let Ayanokoji Kiyotaka hold power.

After all, no one knows when this masterpiece might suddenly go mad and ignite a war that could engulf several worlds; that would be truly terrifying.

489. Evolution of All People

"I agree."

Just as the entire room fell silent, pondering what excuse to use to block Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's path to power, Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly spoke up, becoming the only one to support Ayanokouji.

"Um!?"

The conference room was immediately filled with expressions of confusion, surprise, and shock. The people from the world of Kyal gasped in astonishment, looking as if they had seen a ghost.

'What happened?'

'I don't understand! Isn't he the Emperor's long-time nemesis? Why is he being so kind? This doesn't make sense; there must be a trap!'

'Lord of the City, what do you think?'

Having experienced the Second Princess's massacre of the city, the kind-hearted lord no longer hesitated to assume the worst about others. Under the watchful eyes of Kree and others, he racked his brains to find out the sinister intentions hidden by Hachiman Hikigaya.

"Alright, stop making those faces. It's so obvious, who wouldn't see it?"

Kiyotaka Ayanokouji stopped his subordinates from their shameful behavior, saying, "If you can find a weakness in Hachiman, then pigs can fly."

Upon hearing this, the entire audience was completely stunned.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's words are certainly not wrong. The problem is, is this greatest masterpiece the kind of person who would say such a thing?

This emotional tone, this human touch laced with metaphor and disdain—is this still the same ruthless masterpiece, still the same earth emperor who speaks harshly and kills entire families at the drop of a hat?

Hachiman Hikigaya sighed, "Don't look at people like that. Ayanokouji and I are both normal."

It's just that because of some unknown, deadly sparring and fierce battles in their minds, they fought so similarly that to outsiders they seemed to be somewhat familiar with each other.

"Let me first explain why I agree."

Hachiman Hikigaya, being strictly businesslike and without a joke, began to explain in detail: "First, the inhabitants of the world of Kayal have all been brainwashed by Ayanokouji. If we don't let Ayanokouji lead them, there might be some riots, resulting in casualties and divisions."

"Secondly, Ayanokouji does have this ability, and with him as a buffer, the inhabitants of this world will definitely be able to integrate into us very quickly."

As long as the Earth Emperor orders the residents to learn the knowledge and common sense of other worlds, those people will definitely study wholeheartedly.

"As for the risks... I would say there are no risks."

Other delegates couldn't help but ask, "No risk? What's the basis for that?"

“This is based on my observation, and I am certain that Ayanokouji wouldn’t do anything so crazy right now. Of course, I will also sign a contract with him to physically restrict him.”

Upon receiving this answer, the representatives pondered deeply, some even wavering. Just then, Anastasia, representing Kararachi, cast a resolute dissenting vote: "Sorry, but I'm against it."

She pursed her lips, unusually emotional, "It's certainly good that the Prime Minister is so magnanimous and objective, but I really dislike this Mr. Masterpiece, and I'm going to vote against it no matter what."

Everyone knows why she hates Ayanokouji Kiyotaka so much.

Faced with this undisguised malice, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka did not react at all; he simply stared at Hachiman as always.

He wasn't particularly concerned about the various topics discussed at the meeting. He also didn't care much about whether he could gain power; for example, he was indifferent to the fact that he had now discovered Anastasia's trap for him.

"..."

After some discussion, the proposal for Kiyotaka Ayanokouji to take over the world of Kyal was approved, and he himself did not object.

His acceptance speech was: "Besides those grand principles, there's another reason. You want me to be busy with work and not have time to bother you... That's good too. I suddenly thought of something that we haven't tried yet."

"In the meantime, I'm going to transform Setsuna, Kreeher, and Riss into real people that you approve of... Hmm~ turning fakes into real people should make you show a very interesting expression."

He was very enthusiastic about his masterpiece, and there was no doubt that he was very emotional at the moment.

Hachiman Hikigaya said calmly, "If you can do it, I'm willing to admit defeat."

It was all rather uneventful, lacking any sharp, confrontational edge... Of course, Hachiman didn't care about winning or losing. As long as it didn't harm anyone physically or emotionally, or involve innocent people, Ayanokoji could do whatever he wanted.

Once the matter was settled, the first step was to sign a contract, which was something Hachiman cared about very much. His first restriction on Ayanokouji was: "You are not allowed to use my name in anything you do!"

Next is the second topic.

The lake spirit has been found, and she declares that she wants to become Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's woman, tool, and plaything... Since it is her own will, it is not appropriate to stop her.

The third topic is about the Philosopher's Stone.

After this object was found, it was given to the knowledgeable Echidna for testing. She concluded that the Philosopher's Stone was actually the origin, center, beginning, and end of the world of Kayal.

It is the same as "Ode" in the world of Emilia.

The difference is that the Philosopher's Stone abandons all other functions and concentrates all energy into one, which can be released in one go. Therefore, it is no wonder that it has the effect of restraining the witch's power after allowing an entire world to be traversed.

Many people argue heatedly about what to wish for on the Philosopher's Stone and what to do with it, each with their own selfish motives.

Hachiman Hikigaya offered a perspective.

"How about the Philosopher's Stone grants magical talent to everyone who merges into our world, as well as those who are currently in this world, and also to their descendants?"

Magic is a noble thing. Whether or not one can learn magic might be a world of difference between two different types of people, between the superior and the inferior.

This sense of superiority and prejudice is very likely to emerge in the future, and Hachiman Hikigaya wants to eliminate this future from its root... That is his idea.

But actually, Hachiman Hikigaya's idea was subtly guided by Chiku, because as the mastermind behind it all, he had a deeper purpose.

That is, if everyone has magical talent, the minimum combat power per person will be guaranteed, which will be great for dealing with the Abyss in the future.

…The Philosopher's Stone is so great for personal gain that even with Chi-Kyu's 'public-spirited aura' guiding many high-ranking officials, they were still blinded by greed.

He had no choice but to kill many high-ranking officials, even with tears in his eyes.

After that, the idea that everyone had magical talent was finally realized, and the Philosopher's Stone was completely destroyed in order to fulfill people's wish.

The meeting thus came to a perfect close.

490. Ichinose and Arisu were kidnapped

"Ugh! Really, Master, why are you being so nice to that gay guy? He's been eyeing you all along!"

After the meeting ended, Xia Wula clung to her master, pouting, and begged, "Hey, you absolutely can't let him influence you, Master! Your good disciple Xia Wula is the one who covets you the most, don't forget the love from your disciple!"

"Okay, okay, I understand, don't worry."

Just like coaxing a child, Hachiman Hikigaya stroked Shaula's head, calming his cheap apprentice down to a minimum, when suddenly a heavy weight was placed on his back.
