Zongman: Harem's Music

"Jiyi?" Mikasa was stunned, and without thinking too much, she quickly moved the 370 over.

"Nishimiya?"

"Monitor?"

Historia, Sasha, and Mina were also shocked, and then followed Mikasa and jumped off the roof.

"Wait a minute!" Gustav on another building wanted to stop him, but it was obviously too late.

In the thinning steam, Nishimiya Tsukazu, whose [Founding Titan's Body] had been removed but whose pupils still remained after swallowing the [Attack Titan's] transformation and pupils, quietly waited for Mikasa...

During the transformation process, whether in giant or human form, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi will feel severe pain from the transformation and will be in a weak period; however, since Mikasa is here, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi no longer needs to use mercury as a barrier to protect himself.

When she reached Nishimiya Siyi, Mikasa frowned slightly: "Siyi, you..."

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi apologized, "I'm sorry, there are some things I haven't told you... Take me to the palace first, and I'll explain it to you later!"

......

Chapter 134: Overthrow of the King (End)

When Historia, Sasha, and Mina fell into the steam cloud that had not yet faded, Mikasa had already carried the weakened Nishimiya Tsuyoshi on her back and maneuvered onto the roof of a building.

"Captain?" A garrison soldier looked at Gustav. "What should we do now?"

A garrison soldier nearby commented to his companions, "I didn't expect the silver-haired giant to be..."

Looking at Mikasa who was about to disappear into the building complex, Gustav murmured, "First... notify Commander Pisis. The situation is too complicated now, and only he can make the decision!"

In the deserted street shrouded in steam, Historia, Sasha, and Mina looked at each other, all at a loss.

After hesitating for a moment, Historia gritted her teeth and said, "I'm going to catch up... and find out!"

She was afraid, afraid that the person who was usually gentle and easy-going... the person who made her want to get close to him but she had endured for so long... had never existed from the beginning.

……

the other side!

With his body burning with pain, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, who was as frail as an old man with gray hair, leaned on Mikasa's back and said with a struggling chuckle, "This is my first time being carried on someone's back. I still feel impatient... Mikasa!"

"Jiyi...are you okay?" Mikasa looked around with her beautiful eyes, her tone worried.

"It's just a side effect of merging... Allen's Titan power!" Nishimiya gritted his teeth in pain, "It will be back to normal in ten minutes..."

Mikasa, relieved, concentrated on the three-dimensional maneuver, and while quickly moving through the buildings with Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, she suddenly said, "After that, you must tell me... everything you've been hiding from me!"

"Yeah!" Nishimiya Siyi nodded seriously.

……

The place where they intercepted Eren was only a few hundred meters away from the palace. After a while, Mikasa and Nishimiya Tsutomu climbed up and landed on the top of the tallest columnar tower in the palace.

Below, with the combined might of the [Female Titan] and Levi, and the assistance of the ordinary forces led by Erwin, most of the 15-meter and 7-meter Titans surrounding the palace have been dealt with!

Watching the [Female Titan] using her familiar fighting techniques to instantly knock down the three-headed Titan, allowing the soldiers to finish her off, Mikasa asked, "That Titan... is Annie?"

"Yeah!" Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, who was leaning on Mikasa's back, responded.

Mikasa looked around: "What is your relationship?"

"Strictly speaking, we were enemies before today, but now... we are companions!" Nishimiya Tsuyoshi said.

"companion?"

"Squad Leader, Mikasa!"

Just as Mikasa frowned and thought about the word "companion", Historia, Sasha and Mina caught up with them and landed around them.

"Just like them..." Nishimiya Tsukasa whispered in Mikasa's ear and looked at the three women chasing after him: "You know I'm a giant, but you still dare to chase me? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by me?"

"Even if the squad leader is a giant, he's a gentle giant...right!" Simple-minded Sasha scratched his head.

Mina said seriously, "I don't think the monitor is a bad person... He must have done this for some reason we don't know."

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi smiled with relief and looked at Historia: "What about you?"

Historia, who had been silent the entire time, tore off her usual gentle facade in a moment of desperation, her eyes filled with hostility: "You bastard... you've moved me so much... and made me endure for so long... If you want to get rid of me, I'll kill you and then commit suicide!"

"Christa...you..." Sasha, Mina was shocked. Is this still the gentle and goddess-like Christa she usually is?

"Thank you!" Nishimiya Tsuyoshi's brows softened. His trust and support without [Thought Manipulation] interfering with his thoughts and memories... was more touching than he had imagined!

……

After a few minutes, the 15-meter giants and 7-meter giants had been completely eliminated.

In the square in front of the main hall gate, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, Mikasa, Annie, Historia, Sasha, Mina, and more than 300 soldiers of the Third Corps led by Erwin and Levi who had been brainwashed by Nishimiya Tsuyoshi were all there.

The redwood door leaves of the main hall's gate had been violently damaged, and the ground around it was covered with blood... Although the light in the main hall was not dim, it gave people a feeling of a dark cave. Who knew how many five-meter-long giants were inside?

Well! Nishimiya Tsuyoshi knew there were still twenty-four...

Has it...recovered?

The burning pain gradually subsided, and the system prompt sounds of the transformation completion and ability amplification kept ringing in his mind. Nishimiya Tsuyoshi stood up with the support of Mikasa. His eyes seemed to penetrate and see through everything in the main hall. The [Power of Coordinates] had been activated and acted on the 24 five-meter-class giants, and began... to kill each other!

......

Chapter 135: Eldia Council State (Part 1)

Kill a 5-meter giant, points +15...

Kill a 5-meter giant, points +15...

Kill a 5-meter giant, points +15...22

A scoring exploit has been detected between the host's [Power of Assimilation (transforming humans into giants)] and the quest: Blood Trial (killing giants to earn points)... The system has initiated an immediate correction...

Correction: After the points earned from killing a giant transformed by [Power of Assimilation] reach 15000, no further points will be earned.

The current number of cheats available is: 360/15000.

Walking all the way like a throne room...

The vaporized corpses of five-meter-tall giants littered the ground. Why had they died? It turned out to be the result of Nishimiya Tsuyoshi's [Coordinate Power], controlled by each other's necks...

It was originally a great opportunity to get 360 points without even moving my hands and just sitting there, but my mood was ruined when 697 points were fixed due to a bug in the system!

But come to think of it, since it's a trial...if the system completely ignores such blatant cheating, can it still be considered a trial? Being able to get 15000 points in such an easy way is a good thing!

"Ok?"

On the steps of the royal platform, an open, blood-stained textbook with gold-rimmed corners caught Xigong Siyi's attention. He stepped forward and picked it up. Inside the pages was a message: "This is the embodiment of our greedy souls, the utter ugliness... Is there a more cruel punishment in this world? Ah!! Devour it!! You seek to devour yourselves, committing an irreversible mistake. The oracle has spoken so clearly, so why struggle..."

"I feel like there's something fishy going on here! Whoever wrote this script must have known that Titans are actually humans..." Nishimiya Tsuyoshi muttered, turning to look at Erwin: (bcfh) "Search the palace to see if there are any rats that have escaped!"

"Yes!" Erwin responded and began to lead the search.

Sitting on the nearest staircase, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi looked at Mikasa and the others, "While we still have some free time... I'll tell you something!"

The story begins with the ancestor of the Titans and turns with the first King Reis... The focus is on the truth about the Kingdom of Eldia (the Kingdom within the Walls) and the existence of the Marley Empire! Nishimiya Tsukazu paints himself and his non-existent Nishimiya family with a layer of mystery...

It is roughly as follows:

The Reis family, which wields the strongest of the Nine Titans, the [Power of the Founding Titan], is the true king... However, due to the oath of non-war left by the first King Reis on the [Power of the Founding Titan], the king who inherited the [Power of the Founding Titan] is not only unable to lead the Eldian people within the wall to exterminate the Pure Titans and gain more living space, but is also committed to restricting humans from exploring the secrets of the Titans and restricting the continued development of technology within the wall... This is how the First Military Police Regiment came into being.

Some nobles were accomplices who knew about this. One of them was the Nishimiya family, a branch of the Reiss family, originally surnamed Fritz, belonging to the Eldian royal family. However, due to their alienation from political power, they declined. After accidentally learning about this in the family genealogy, he (Nishimiya Tsukazu) set out to change all this five years ago...

Unexpectedly, he met a man with the same goal, Alan's father - Grisha Yeager.

He seized the Power of the Founding Titan from Grisha Yeager, the man who had stolen it from the Reiss family... and from the memories of Grisha Yeager, a stranger from outside the Wall, he learned about the Marley Empire, a powerful entity that coveted the Royal Palace within the Wall and held the Power of the Seven Titans in its hands...

It was at that time that the Colossal Titan and the Armored Titan appeared in the Hikenxia District, causing the fall of Wall Maria. He (Nishimiya Tsuyoshi) naturally thought that this was an action of the Marley Empire... so he joined the training corps, ready to fight against it... but he happened to run into Annie and others who had infiltrated the corps.

“That’s pretty much it!”

His words were not without loopholes, but for the women who knew very little about these secrets, they were too shocked to have the energy to look for loopholes.

But Ani from the Marley Empire was clearly not among them: "Since all previous Reis kings were affected by the first generation's [Oath of Non-War]... why... aren't you?"

"Because my royal bloodline is thin..." Nishimiya Tsuyoshi had already prepared his explanation: "I couldn't fully utilize the [Power of the Founding Titan] at first, but the corresponding [Oath of Non-War] had very limited effect on me. Once I used the [Power of the Founding Titan], I struck back and replenished my bloodline, and defeated the [Oath of Non-War] of the First King Reis!"

This was originally Grisha Yeager's strategy, allowing Eren, who had no royal blood, to inherit the [Power of the Founding Titan]. Although he could not fully exert its power, he would not be affected by the will of the first King Reiss, and thus seek an opportunity to break the deadlock from this buffer... This was also Nishimiya Tsuyoshi's idea, but due to the intervention of the system, it saved a lot of trouble.

"Let's talk about the trivial matters later!" Xigong Siyi suddenly spoke. Following his gaze, the women saw Pisis, Zakre and others entering the palace with a group of subordinates.

......

Chapter 136: Eldia Council (Part 2)

At the end of June 850, a large number of giants appeared in the royal capital of Mithras. It took only fifteen minutes for the royal palace to fall. Including King Fritz, the three dukes, the Pope of the Colossal Wall Church, more than fifty first gendarmes, more than one hundred gendarmes, and more than two hundred maids were confirmed dead.

The public proposals jointly issued by the commander of the First Military Police Regiment, Tsuyoshi Nishimiya, the president of the Third Corps, Darius Zakre, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Garrison Corps, Dotopsis, and the commander of the Survey Corps, Erwin Smith, on "the parliamentary system of the Kingdom of Eldia, the establishment of universal suffrage, and the return of rights to all people", and the "disclosure of intelligence on the enemy country of Marley" have caused widespread discussion.

"There are other countries outside the wall? What a joke... I think it's those people from the Corps who want to get their hands on the government!"

"It's because King Fritz has no children."

"Even though King Fritz doesn't have one, the Four Dukes must have one! Shouldn't they choose an heir to the throne from among their offspring?"

"Those people in the Corps finally had a chance to take control of the government. How could they possibly give it up? Handing power back to the people. Ha, that sounds nice... -"

……

"Election system? Does that mean we vote to choose our leaders?"

"This is an unprecedented good thing..."

“Can those of us who have no power and influence also participate in elections?”

"The newspaper said that a bill meeting will be held in the capital in ten days. Every village, town, and region can elect a representative to attend, and they will have votes for and against the bill."

The discussion never stopped among merchants, gentry, and petty nobles who got the newspapers, as well as in public places such as bars, teahouses, and taverns. What's interesting is that the wealthy class and the common people were at two completely different extremes in their tendency to reject or approve of the "Parliamentary System Proposal"!

Over the course of three days, the capital's shops, which usually had a poor reputation, and nobles were frequently attacked by the public, and class conflicts began to intensify...

The first meeting room of the Presidential Palace.

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, Zakre, Pisis, Erwin, and Neldok (Military Police Division Commander) who are all controlled by [Mind Control]

"Our proposal has received widespread public support... but it has also met resistance from the wealthy! According to intelligence, Nikonos, the Eastern Garrison Commander-in-Chief, has reached a consensus with the three new Dukes, who are next in line to inherit the title. They firmly oppose the 'Parliamentary System Proposal' and want to elect a new king from among the three Dukes!"

Zakrei held a stack of papers in his hand. "The commanders-in-chief of the northern and western garrisons are both on the sidelines... It's worth noting that the followers of the Giant Wall Cult aren't involved, but they seem to be secretly plotting something..."

"Changing a country's political system is indeed a troublesome matter!" Nishimiya Siyi, who was sitting in the main seat, muttered and turned his head to look at Zakre: "How many people are there in the Eastern Garrison?"

Zakre: "A conservative estimate is 5000 garrison troops!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi: "Then, Commander-in-Chief, will you accept the invitation to attend the open bill parliament in seven days?"

"I don't know!" Zachary.

"You won't even give me a chance at the Hongmen Feast?" Xigong Siyi raised an eyebrow. "Purge them all! Including that Jubi Cult... Anyone who dares to resist the 'Parliamentary System Proposal' and who dares to hinder the progress of history deserves death!"

"My lord!" Pisis couldn't help but speak. "The Eastern Garrison has 5000 men. Counting the first-rate guards maintained by the Three Dukes, the number is probably over 10,000... In addition, there are nearly 20,000 members of the Giant Wall Cult. Our Southern Garrison has only about 4000 men left after the Battle of Trost. Counting the Military Police Division, there are 5,000 men, and the Survey Corps, over 2000. Unless you and Anileonard use the [Power of the Titan], even victory will probably come at a heavy price."

Asking for flowers

"They're not worth my and Ani's attention, and... who said we should confront them head-on?" Nishimiya Tsuyoshi raised the corner of his mouth. "Catch the leader first! Don't worry about this matter. Just focus on preparing for the public bill in seven days!"

The chess pieces (orphans) he planted in various corps five years ago have not been used yet!

. ...

……

three days later.

The Eastern Garrison Commander was assassinated by his own subordinates in the Stohes District of Ong City, east of the Sina Wall... The Eastern Garrison was divided into two factions, one responding to the call of the Royal Capital and the other seeking revenge for Commander Nicono. They were unable to intervene in the progress of the "Parliamentary System Proposal"...

the next day.

The top leaders of the Giant Wall Cult, whose headquarters is in the Yarukairu District of Weng City, west of the Sina Wall, were assassinated by members of the Western Garrison Corps. All of them were killed... The Giant Wall Cult members held a demonstration, demanding the handover and severe punishment of the murderer, and almost broke into the headquarters of the Western Garrison Corps... The two sides were in a mess!

Both incidents were naturally caused by the chess pieces placed by Nishimiya Tsuyoshi five years ago. The former chess piece was responding to the call of the royal capital in the eastern part of the kingdom, confronting the opposition and buying time for the release of the bill. The latter chess piece had already entered the royal capital and was secretly incorporated into the First Military Police Regiment by Nishimiya Tsuyoshi.

After such a bloody massacre, the public bill meeting arrived as scheduled!

......

Chapter 137: Eldia Council State (Part 2)

Time: July 2, 850, 8:00 a.m.

Location: Central Square of the Royal Capital.

With the high-ranking officials of each corps and the remaining territory of the Kingdom of Eldia: 185 villages (excluding the non-cooperative eastern part), 75 towns (excluding the non-cooperative eastern part), 6 Wengcheng (excluding the non-cooperative eastern part), 266 senators, and thousands of people in the royal capital watching, the "Kingdom Parliament System Bill" was held as scheduled.
