"Okay, let's disband. I hope we can find the flaw in Megiddo soon and restore peace to the world."
The swordsmen packed their bags and left one after another. Ellen walked alone in the corridor, as if she was thinking of something happy. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, adding a bit of charm to her cold temperament.
092: Isn’t she right behind you?
Seeing Ellen, a usually cold beauty, smile at odd moments, the audience felt a little uneasy while appreciating the smile.
UMR: Is this bad woman going to cause trouble?
Hundred Thousand Miko: Wow, this evil smile is exactly the same as the expression that Oil Curry guy had when he wanted to cause trouble.
Youkai Sage: I wouldn’t laugh like that, probably.
[Fantasy Bookstore Gokochi, Shiori, who has a rare moment of free time to write, once again welcomes a strange guest.
The silver-haired woman walked into the store with her chest crossed, and looked at Shiori who was sitting at the table with sharp eyes.
"welcome?"
Shizhi wanted to greet her warmly as usual, but the woman's overly aggressive gaze made her feel uncomfortable, and her greeting had a hint of questioning at the end. After all, this person didn't look like she was here to buy books.
"Are you Gokawa Shiori?"
Allen asked the question even though he knew the answer. His tone was full of condescension, which made even the good-tempered Shizhi feel a little upset. However, Shizhi still maintained a smile and responded to him.
"Yes, I'm Gokawa Shiori, what can I do for you?"
"Then you are right."
Alan took out a badge of the Sword of Truth from his pocket and showed it to Shiori.
"My name is Alan Mira Mathers, a swordsman affiliated with the Southern District of the Sword of Truth. I am here to persuade you to join our Southern District base."
"Join the South District?"
Shiori was stunned for a moment, then asked a question.
"If I join the South District, will I be able to fight on equal terms with the North District in the future?"
Shiori had previously learned about the situation between the North and South districts from Tohka. Compared to the North District which was directly responsible for the front-line combat, the South District's main responsibility tended to be managing the daily operations of the entire Sword of Truth organization. Therefore, the number of swordsmen in the North District was far greater than that in the South District, and there were only two swordsmen stationed in the South District.
The swordsmen in the South District cannot leave their posts at will, so the other two swordsmen have never been seen in the previous Wang Jian incident.
If Shiori had to choose, she would prefer to fight alongside friends like Tohka.
"If you join the South District, you will naturally become a swordsman of the South District. Compared to acting with the swordsmen of the North District, you will have more important responsibilities."
"Is that so? Forgive me for refusing, but I really want to fight with you all."
Shiori shook his head and was about to ask the other party if he could officially join the North District, but he found that the other party had turned and left.
"Is that so? That's really a pity."
Before leaving, Allen left these words.
"What an anxious person."
Shiori smiled bitterly, and continued to write the story about "relying on friendship and fighting together with partners" that she had agreed with everyone last time. She did not take this little episode to heart, but she would never have thought that this was just the beginning of a nightmare. 】
The Dead Fish Eyes of the Great Sensei: This woman deliberately avoided answering Shiori's question about whether he could fight alongside the North District Swordsman. She was trying to induce Shiori to reject her persuasion.
Sister Taiyang: Well, all this woman wants is the fact that Shiori refused to join the Sword of Truth, and she intends to disobey the orders of the Lord of Truth.
Emperor's Dance: As expected, she is the enemy in the organization that Kotori mentioned.
Bobo Squirtle: It's very likely. I didn't expect such a beautiful lady to have such a vicious heart.
[Shiori's writing did not last long, as Yoshino's arrival interrupted her creation again.
"Oh no, Shiori-chan, the editor-in-chief of Kusakabe has been attacked by Megiddo!"
"What? Tell me the details slowly."
Shiori was a little surprised to hear the name of an acquaintance.
Kusakabe Ryoko is one of the editors-in-chief of the publishing house that Shiori and Yoshino belong to. She is Yoshino's direct superior. Shiori received a lot of care from her when he just started to become a novelist. She is an excellent woman who is straightforward, kind and outstanding.
"Recently, Editor-in-Chief Kusakabe said that she always has hallucinations, so she asked for leave today to rest at home. I originally wanted to visit her after get off work today, but when I was talking to her on the phone, I suddenly heard a scream, and then I heard this voice."
Shiono turned on the call recording, and after a woman's scream, a man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Congratulations, you will soon be part of the Omniscience. I am so happy for you, beautiful lady."
It was a polite and mature male voice, and Shiori and Yoshino who were present were both deeply impressed by this voice.
"It's Woodman!"
Shiori immediately called out the name of the owner of the voice, and ran out without any hesitation, followed closely by Yoshino.
From what Woodman said, it seemed that Kusakabe Ryoko still had some use to him, and if he rushed there now, he might still be able to save her.
However, when the two arrived near Kusakabe Ryoko's home, what they saw was a scene of ice and snow. A sturdy white-haired figure over two meters tall was spewing ice and frost wantonly. The terrifying posture reminded Shiori of an unconfirmed creature in urban legends called the Snow Monster.
"Huh? Why did Megiddo appear directly in the real world? Never mind, it's not important. You! Where is Miss Kusakabe?"
Seeing the passers-by frozen into ice sculptures, Shiori ran forward quickly, with the Three Books of Fiery Fire ready to go.
"Transform!"
"The fire draws the sword!"
"Draw the Blade of Fire! Three Books of Blazing Fire! The True Crimson Sword will pierce through evil! Burn everything!"
The holy sword wrapped in flames caught the yeti Megiddo off guard and created a spark on his back. Megiddo, who was standing unsteadily, fell forward and stopped swallowing ice from his mouth.
Taking this opportunity, Shiori pressed the page of the central "Storm Falcon", and a storm of fire swept out, thawing the surrounding snowy scene.
Because they were not frozen for a long time, the people who were thawed had no worries about their lives except that they were shivering from the cold.
"Yoshino-chan, get everyone else to evacuate, leave this guy to me!"
"Ok!"
Yoshino saluted and began to evacuate people skillfully, while looking for the figure of Editor-in-Chief Kusakabe.
Shiori looked back at the snow monster Megiddo who had already climbed up, and put the flaming sword Reihuo into the drive, ready to kill the opponent in one go. However, as the creator, Woodman naturally could not bear to see his work being destroyed.
The cross sword was swung, and Shizhi, sensing the danger, rolled to avoid the attack and looked at another tall monster behind him.
"Woodman!"
Shiori's eyes were almost spitting fire. The acquaintance's encounter with Megiddo reminded her of the death of her best friend, and she questioned the other party in a harsh voice.
"What did you do to Miss Kusakabe?"
"Kusakabe?"
Woodman stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered the last name on the doorplate that he had inadvertently seen when he entered the woman's home.
"Hey, isn't she right behind you?"]
093: Confused
[“Hey, isn’t she right behind you?”
Woodman's words were like a bolt from the blue. Shiori turned back blankly to look at the snow monster Megiddo who had already climbed up behind him. He could not connect it with the black-haired editor in chief no matter what.
"Don't believe it?"
Looking at Shiori's expression, Woodman felt that the unhappiness in his heart because his plan was ruined by Shiori was instantly relieved. He waved his hand as if to prove his words.
The snow monster Megiddo emitted bursts of white light and turned into a black-haired woman right in front of Shiori.
The woman was shivering due to the cold air floating around her, and looked at Shizhi with a confused face.
"The man in red armor? Hey, it's so cold. Why am I here?"
"Kusakabe..."
Shiori was about to say something when he saw the woman's hands quickly emitting cold air. Before Kusakabe Ryoko could even scream, she was wrapped in a large amount of ice. The snow monster Megiddo crawled out from it and punched Shiori directly.
Shiori reacted quickly enough, raising his sword to block the attack, but he also took a few steps back in embarrassment.
When the yeti Megiddo saw that his first attack failed and he had no intention of fighting anymore, he just turned around and ran away.
"and many more!"
Shiori wanted to swing his sword and look at the opponent's open back, but when he thought of the opponent's identity, he forced himself to hold back. Instead, he put away his sword and rushed forward to hug the yeti Megiddo's waist, trying to restrict the opponent's movements.
"Hey, it's not nice to be persistent with a lady."
Woodman said sarcastically and kicked Shiori in the side.
The pain made Shizhi subconsciously let go of his hands, and the snow monster Megiddo turned around and punched Shizhi in the face, causing him to fall to the ground with a dizzy head.
"Ahem, Woodman, what on earth did you do to Miss Kusakabe?"
"hehe."
Woodman smiled, squatted down, and pretended to pat the dust off Shizhi's body.
"Who knows? Maybe I gave her superhuman powers out of kindness. Oh, you better be careful. After Megiddo dies, this human will die with him. At least that's what Stellius told me."
"You guy!"
Pushing Woodman's hand away, Shiori angrily took out "Dragon Knight".
"Fiery sword! Dragon Knight! In short, super crossbow-level powerful!"]
Rhodes Island CEO: How could this happen? If humans turned into Megiddo, how could Ms. Shiori have the heart to do it?
Vehicle Killer: This move is indeed too vicious, forcing the victim to become the perpetrator, forcing the swordsmen to undergo inner trials, and I always feel that things will not be that simple.
[Shiori and Woodman started fighting. What neither side noticed was that on the rooftop of a building in the distance, a woman named Allen was silently staring at the battle situation below. Then she took out her cell phone and dialed a number.
"Is it the Blade? Megiddo has appeared. The location is..."]
Devil Bomber: Damn it *Sarkaz swear*, this guy definitely has no good intentions in calling Tohka here at this time!
Hououin Kyouma: Wait, the Water Swordsman didn't know that this Megiddo was transformed from a human, could it be that...
Death Elementary School Student: This woman is trying to sow discord!
Kokoro Yasu: What a vicious plan! If Tohka-san kills Kusakabe-san, there will definitely be a rift between Shiori-san and Tohka-san. And if Shiori-san takes action to protect Megiddo, Alan only needs to interfere a little to make Shiori-san's standing in the eyes of the swordsmen plummet.
