Knight Asylum

"What are you looking at?! Do you know we are——"

Before the gangster finished speaking, Asakura Takeshi had already reached out and grabbed the other person's mouth, then pushed him against the wall with such force that the gangster was knocked over on the spot. The other gangsters were stunned at first, then immediately stepped forward angrily and kicked Asakura Takeshi away one by one.

The long-lost feeling of pain made Asakura Takeru breathe a sigh of satisfaction.

“It’s great—that’s the feeling…”

Asakura Wei turned his head left and right and opened his arms towards the gangsters.

"bring it on--"

The thugs, who had never thought that one day they would be provoked in the street, immediately became angry and rushed forward. Asakura Takeshi revealed an extremely bloody smile and twisted his neck as he rushed towards the thugs.

At the same time, after apologizing and compensating, Shinji Shirodo finally got rid of the store owner and rushed out of the ramen shop. He looked around, but there was no trace of Asakura Takeshi anywhere. Shinji Shirodo couldn't help but scratch the back of his head and muttered unwillingly.

"Damn it, Asakura, where on earth did he go?"

"It's better if you don't get involved with Asakura Takeshi."

A man appeared behind Shinji Shirodo and spoke. Because it was too sudden, Shinji Shirodo jumped back in fright, but after seeing the other person's appearance clearly, he immediately raised his finger, pointed at the other person's face and opened his mouth.

"Ah—Asakura!"

"I'm Asakura Akatsuki," Asakura Akatsuki, who looked exactly like Asakura Takeshi at first glance, put one hand on his waist and shook his head helplessly.

His intellectual and humble aura was exactly the opposite of the manic Asakura Takeru, so Shiroto Shinji immediately believed the identity of Asakura Akatsuki in front of him, but before Shiroto Shinji could speak, Asakura Akatsuki spoke again.

"Don't get involved with Asakura Takeshi. He's just a lunatic who could explode and kill you at any time."

Shiroto Shinji opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time before shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, maybe..."

"There is no maybe. I am his younger brother. I have lived with him for more than ten years. I know better than you how dangerous Asakura Takeshi is," Asakura Akatsuki rudely interrupted Shirodo Shinji, looked at Shirodo Shinji deeply, and turned away.

Shinji Shirodo wanted to chase after them to find out what was going on, but before he had taken two steps he heard a commotion and ear-piercing screams.

Shinji Shirodo's face changed and he thought of Asakura Akatsuki's warning.

Shinji Shirodo rushed over immediately, pushed aside all the busybodies, and came to the center of the commotion. On the road stained with rotten things from the garbage cans, thugs with tattooed arms and hair dyed various strange colors were lying on the ground with their eyes rolled back like corpses. Standing in the middle of them, pinching the head of the last thug who had not yet fallen down was Asakura Takeshi.

It was obvious that Asakura Takeshi was not doing well either, with blood flowing down his forehead, but Asakura Takeshi looked extremely satisfied.

"I, we didn't provoke you--"

The gangster struggled and reached out his hand towards Asakura Takeshi's face.

"It's your fault for making me feel irritated."

Asakura Takeshi raised his leg and kicked the gangster, who had long been unable to resist, into the trash can on the spot. The onlookers applauded and cheered.

"Ah... I'm getting irritated again..."

Asakura Takeshi raised his head, then turned as if he sensed something, and looked at Shinji Shirodo who was stunned in the crowd.

"Humph--"

Asakura Takeshi raised his hand to wipe the blood from his forehead and turned around. As soon as he took a step, he heard Shinji Shirodo's straightforward shout from behind.

"Hey - Asakura! Wait a moment!"

Chapter 143: The increasing number of mirror crimes

After confirming the contact information and contact time, Mari Sonoda reluctantly got on Masato Soka's motorcycle. Before leaving, she kept waving her hands to indicate that no one should take the opportunity to block her phone number. After watching Mari Sonoda leave, Reid was not in a hurry to leave.

As soon as the bell rang, Ise Ayaka ran out in a hurry again, looking worried like a puppy who was afraid of being abandoned by its owner. When she saw Reid still standing at the school gate, she immediately smiled with relief.

"Did you wash all your hair back?" Reid smiled and nodded to Ise Ayaka.

"Well, I'll do it when I find time," Ise Ayaka touched her black hair on both sides and smiled innocently.

"It suits you very well. Come to think of it, I thought you would accept Wright's invitation just now, but I didn't expect you to refuse it so straightforwardly. After all, it is the Tower of Sages. Even I am tempted."

Red put his hands on his hips and sighed, people really can grow up overnight.

"Well... I probably can't do it," Ise Ayaka stuck out her tongue, "Besides, I've already filled out my application form. Magicians are not within my scope of consideration?"

"volunteer?"

"Yes, I want to be a teacher in the future," Ise Ayaka crossed her arms and nodded vigorously.

"I feel like you can do it," Qiao said suddenly.

Ise Ayaka didn't expect that the always harsh and sharp-tongued Qiao would say this. She immediately became reserved and nodded vigorously, "I will try my best! Thank you!"

The corner of Qiao's mouth twitched fiercely.

"come on--"

Reid gave a thumbs-up.

"Hmm!" As soon as she arrived at Red's place, Ise Ayaka felt much more relaxed and gave Red a thumbs up.

"By the way, Ise-san, has Hamamura appeared again recently?" Reid narrowed his eyes slightly.

Magicians and phantoms are enemies that cannot coexist.

The birth of a magician means the disappearance of a phantom demon, and the birth of a phantom demon means that mankind has forever lost a magician who can use magic, so magicians are always trying to eliminate phantom demons, and phantom demons will never let go of newborn magicians.

Hamamura Midori has become a phantom demon. Most of the phantom demons know that Ise Ayaka has become a magician. A magician without a magic ring and who cannot use magic is no different from an ordinary person to the phantom demons. Now that Ise Ayaka has rejected the recruitment of the Sage Tower, it is equivalent to destroying her own devotion to becoming a magician. Unless there is an accident, she will never be able to use magic in her life.

Knowing what Red was worried about, Ise Ayaka raised her hand and patted her chest, "Don't worry, I've moved into the school dormitory now."

Reid raised his eyebrows, "Because Amanokawa High School is under the protection of the apostles from the stars?"

"Yes."

So what exactly are the Apostles from the Stars?!

Red slapped his forehead, feeling a little painful.

Ise Ayaka's eyes were very straightforward, so straightforward that he suspected that even if he asked Ise Ayaka what the Apostle from the Star was, Ise Ayaka would only answer that it was the Apostle from the Star.

If you think about it carefully, the disappearances of high school students of Tianzhichuan High School related to the phantom demons all occurred outside the school, and the phantom demons have never raided Tianzhichuan High School. Just now, the Zhinao Group also chose to attack them outside the school.

Maybe... this Amanokawa High School really does hide some secrets.

"Then I'm relieved. You can go back to class... If that Wright comes to bother you again, you can contact me," Reid glanced at the time and smiled at Ise Ayaka.

Although she was reluctant, Ise Ayaka nodded and quickly ran back to the teaching building.

In the corner, Wright stuck his head out, looked in the direction of the teaching building with some reluctance, then glared angrily at Reid who was getting in the car and preparing to leave. He turned around, took out the magic ring for communication, put it into his belt, and turned it hard. Tiny particles of light flowed out of the belt and formed a magic circle beside Wright's ears.

"Wright? What's going on?"

An old and majestic voice came from the magic circle. Wright put away his frivolous attitude and answered respectfully.

"Sage, the recruitment failed. Ise Ayaka rejected our invitation."

In order to avoid being blamed by the sage, Wright immediately added.

"That Red got in the way."

"Red? What a troublesome guy."

As expected, upon hearing Red's face, the sage who was originally preparing to hold someone accountable immediately shifted his attention.

"But, Sage, I discovered a secret. Perhaps, if used properly, we can get rid of Red."

"Wow? What did you find?"

The sages became interested. Although they were unhappy, they had to admit that their current level of magicians was not enough to deal with the qualified people in the Gurongi Group, let alone Red who defeated the qualified person head-on.

Wright cleared his throat and said slowly, "I am invincible if I can defeat the qualified person, but Red is not invincible. I just saw that Red was hit by an off-road vehicle and broke several bones, which means..."

"In other words, as long as we give Red a fatal blow before he turns into Kuuga, we can get rid of him?" The sage understood what Light meant.

"Yes Yes."

"Then you come?"

Wright immediately fell silent, scratching the back of his head and laughing awkwardly, "Sage, don't be ridiculous. I don't have that ability. All I have are some C-level magic rings."

"Hmph - I didn't expect you to be able to do it," the sage sneered, "You should continue to try to win over Ise Ayaka. Magicians and their descendants must belong to the Sage's Tower."

"I understand!"

After saying goodbye to Ise Ayaka, Reid and the others did not stay and returned to Selvi Tulia along the way. Because Sonoda Mari was missing, the road was a lot quieter. However, before they returned to the dormitory, Sonoda Mari called them on video and showed them her current room. However, Masato Kusaka did not show up. According to Sonoda Mari, Masato Kusaka was planning to pick up several other members of Meteoric Juku.

Not long after ending the call with Sonoda Mari, news came from Enbe, but it was not good news.

"What did you say? There are more incidents suspected to be related to the mirror world!"

"Yes, in the past few days, cases of murder in closed rooms, disappearances, and robberies have begun to occur frequently. Not every guy has made a detailed plan," Enbei raised his hands and clapped them, and the main screen began to play the video.

In the video, a figure in a silent jewelry store walked out from a mirror that was used by customers to evaluate the effects of wearing jewelry, smashed the display stands one by one, swept away all the jewelry, and then left the scene through another mirror amid the sound of an alarm.

Chapter 144: Is it a knight or a monster that has been added?

Reid crossed his arms and frowned.

No one can stop the crimes in the mirror world unless they have the same technology.

"Has there been any progress in Selvi Turia's research on the mirror world?" Qiao asked.

Embe put his hands on his hips and shook his head helplessly, while Seryu was more direct. "The famous Mirror World proponent Kanzaki Shirou now says the most: No, it can't be done. With their sleepless efforts, they can only guarantee that the user of the black box can be active in the Mirror World for five minutes. In comparison, his teacher has developed a combat system through the Mirror World. This technology can be fully applied to the Knight Project. I almost doubt whether he is deliberately delaying our progress."

Enbei shook his head helplessly and said nothing.

He would not doubt his own people because of unfavorable developments. Science is not a first come first served basis. The discoverer of a theory may not necessarily become the highest authority on this theory. Shiro Kanzaki is indeed the discoverer of the mirror world, but Shiro Kanzaki is still young, while Hideyuki Kagawa is a well-known professor and is naturally much more experienced in research than Shiro Kanzaki.

"Where's U?"

Red suddenly remembered that U would always be present at their meetings, but this time U was nowhere to be seen.

For a moment, the expressions of Embe and Seleu were a little stiff and ugly. Without them saying much, Red had already gotten the answer from their expressions.

At the highest conference, U was stirring his coffee slowly with a small silver spoon. Faced with U's nonchalant attitude, the sponsors were angry but not in a hurry to hold him accountable.

"U, have you figured out how to explain it?" Ouroboros asked leisurely.

"Explain? Explain what?" U paused and raised his brows slightly.

"Of course, the mirror world leaked. After just a few days, crimes with unknown methods began to occur frequently in [S·L]. These crimes all have one thing in common, that is... no matter how strict the security is, no matter how many people are watching, there is no trace of the criminals breaking through the defense, and no one saw them passing by. Those criminals appeared at the crime scene so openly, and disappeared like ghosts."

"However, even if we are as amazing as [S.L], we have not discovered the existence of ghosts at all," Ouroboros, in a good mood, even made a joke, and the other sponsors laughed heartily.

But after laughing, they drew out sharp knives.

"U, you are the supreme commander. You don't need us to explain the current situation to you."

U was silent for a moment and then raised his finger. "According to the agreement, the mirror world will be defined as a containment object. Based on the scale of its impact, the level is... D."

"Only D? That's a whole world!" Ouroboros was so angry at U's obvious misleading attitude that he laughed.

"The world itself poses no threat. The real danger lies in the technology that exploits this world," U grinned. "You can go track down those who use the mirror world to commit crimes."

"U, we won't clean up your mess," Ouroboros saw what U was thinking and sneered, "In order to avoid further escalation of the incident caused by the leak, U should share the mirror world's technology with us."

"I refuse. According to the current situation, the target of the Zerg that Selvi Turiane has not yet eliminated is the technology of the Mirror World. If the Zerg that can completely replicate humans face to face obtain the technology of the Mirror World that can sneak into any place through the mirror, the consequences will be disastrous."

"What do you mean! Are you trying to say that there are Zerg among our sponsors?" Ouroboros shouted in anger, causing other sponsors who had not taken U's words seriously to glance in the direction of Ouroboros.

"I'm just making an educated guess," U put down his coffee and crossed his fingers in front of him.

"That's enough—"

At this moment, the inscription representing the Tower of Sages lit up.

"U, your research led to the containment incident. This is an indisputable fact. As the savior of mankind and the supreme commander of Servier Turia, you are disqualified."

This time U did not refute.

He could have simply stated that it was not Servieri Turia's research that led to the crimes using the mirror world in [S·L], but this would have been tantamount to putting Kagawa Hideyuki, who possessed more sophisticated technology, in front of these sponsors.

The sponsors who are working non-stop on the Knight Project will definitely not let go of the technology of the Mirror World in Kagawa Hideyuki's hands. If the sponsors are allowed to obtain the Mirror World, U knows whether the number of righteous knights or terrible monsters will increase.

But the problem now is that the Zerg lurking inside Servitua somehow knew of Kagawa Hideyuki's existence, and the possibility that the sponsors knew of Kagawa Hideyuki's existence is not zero.

We have to try it out.

"That's true, then let's move the assessment forward," U stood up with his hands open.

As the only officially certified [S·L] human rescue organization, in order to gain the trust and support of the people, a comprehensive assessment and inspection will be carried out every three months to ensure that there are no abnormalities in the operation of each department of Serví Turia.

But within Servi Turia, it’s more than just a process.

There is a saying in performance that the subordinates' credit is the boss's credit, and the boss's fault is the subordinates' fault.

But in Servier Turia the situation is the opposite. As the savior of mankind, he should do whatever he wants. But if there are problems in the following links, no matter how far away, he, the savior of mankind, should take responsibility.
