The Chosen Ones Also Want a Youth Romance Story

"Well, although I don't want to admit it, they are indeed the network guardians of the digital world."

Lying on top of the Tyrannosaurus Sword, he was sure that he had never been so surprised.

Perhaps he had always been wary of the Royal Knights, but he never linked the culprit of this series of events to this organization that symbolizes "order."

Everything seemed to be developing in the worst direction. Just as described in the story, while defeating the dragon, the paladins seemed to have transformed into a more powerful dragon.

What is going on...

Kanda Osamu didn't understand what happened within the Royal Knights that led to their current state.

He really wanted to go back and ask the two paladins, but his remaining sanity told him that it was useless.

"I need to tell DATS this news..."

Many faces flashed through Kanda Osamu's mind, but judging from the current situation, there seemed to be not many people who could play a role in this matter.

"DATS...have they finished reorganizing?"

Yukinoshita Yukino felt a little weird when she learned about this. She certainly knew what DATS was. After hearing that they had been reorganized, her expression became better.

"Yes, Commander Samo has taken over again."

Thinking of Satsuma Rentaro's calm and serious tone when he met him again, Kanda Osamu sighed that this man really had the capital to take charge of DATS.

"Also, Daimon has now joined DATS, which means that from a structured point of view, DATS already has four Chosen Ones."

Since the topic was about DATS, Kanda Osamu spoke again: "Bullmaster, have you ever thought about going after graduation..."

"Why are you asking me this all of a sudden? Did you receive a job offer from DATS recently?"

"Come on, I'm not too keen on this... the atmosphere within DATS doesn't suit me."

"What a willful answer..."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Kanda Osamu with some amusement, whose face had an expression of "unwillingness" written all over it.

"Of course I don't have this idea. Judging from my academic performance, even if I don't join this government agency, I will definitely achieve great success in the future."

Suddenly remembering that the person in front of him was actually the top student in the school, Kanda Osamu couldn't help but sigh that his previous question was too naive.

"That's true. I forgot you were the most popular girl in General Affairs High School."

"Kanda-kun...please at least be decent at this time."

Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but put her hand on her forehead. What Kanda Osamu said was like a cold joke before the end of the world, which made her feel funny and helpless at the same time.

"Ha... Then I'll take you here first."

Lying on Omegamon's left arm, Kanda Shuu pointed to the apartment directly below them.

"Next, I will go and inform Satsuma. If you encounter any problems, you can inform me at any time. Don't worry. Mr. Kanda is always waiting for your instructions!"

Yukinoshita Yukino, who had already summoned her two partners, glared at him: "If I remember correctly, you seem to be a second-year student, right? Don't you find it boring to still speak in such a childish tone?"

“Okay, okay…” Kanda Osamu spread his hands helplessly, “Anyway, please be careful in everything, Minister Yukinoshita.”

…………

The Royal Knights... Should we tell Sister Mu Hai about this?

Before leaving, Kanda Osamu kept thinking about this question. Although there are often news about Digital Monsters in the real world, as an ordinary person (?), Kyouko Kurumi probably doesn't know much about these things... If the Royal Knights are mentioned, she probably doesn't know what they are.

So... should I embellish the results of my investigation? With Kyouko Murumi's insight, she should be able to see through it at a glance, right?

For a moment, Kanda Osamu was in a brief dilemma. It would be troublesome if Kurumi Anko actually knew something.

"never mind……"

In the end, he decided to go find Satsuma Rentaro first. Since it was something related to Digimon, it would be normal to tell it directly to the professional DATS, and then think about whether to tell Sister Murumi.

However... from the behavior of Crimson Knightmon that he met before, he really didn't seem to know much about the situation of the Royal Knights. Did he not see any clues at all? Or was it because the Royal Knights of the other camp had completely isolated them?

If it is the latter, it means that there are still some Royal Knights who are fulfilling their duties. If we can contact them, perhaps we can balance the gap in numbers with the other Royal Knights.

...For a moment, Kanda Osamu fell into a brief contemplation.

When he came to his senses again, the DATS headquarters building had appeared in his sight. This rebuilt building was exactly the same as before. Standing on the ground, it was in line with the duties and situation of DATS.

It would be great if Thomas and Nishijima-sensei were still here, Kanda Osamu thought. With their help, it might be able to reduce a lot of pressure when facing the Royal Knights. After all, their partners are the Holy Beasts and Beast Knights.

Chapter 130: The Legend of the Son of God

Today is the day when Kamishiro Enterprise will hold an "Experience Meeting".

It was also the day when Satsuma Rentaro commissioned Kanda Osamu to investigate the "monitoring device", so he did not leave the DATS building at this time, but was waiting for Kanda Osamu's arrival.

Hearing a whistling sound overhead, Satsuma Rentaro raised his head and looked at Kanda Osamu: "How is the investigation going?"

"It's good and bad. The good news is that I successfully obtained the log report of that period..."

Kanda Shu raised the Tyrannosaurus and took back Omegamon: "But the bad news is that I met the Royal Knights in the core layer of Kamishiro Enterprise. Although their motives are currently unknown, I guess the masterminds are these Holy Knights."

"Sit down and talk slowly. I need to know what happened exactly," said Rentaro Satsuma.

"I think so."

Kanda Osamu nodded in agreement, then sat down opposite Satsuma Rentaro and told him as much detail as possible about what he had seen today.

…………

After a short conversation, Kanda Osamu stood up and said, "I witnessed all of this with my own eyes. If I'm not mistaken, these paladins will soon take other actions."

"The Royal Knights..." Satsuma Rentaro whispered the name.

"Well, although I find it a little unbelievable, this is the truth. From now on, both the Chosen and the DATS need to be prepared for battle."

Although it is not known how many Paladins are involved, it can be confirmed that there are already two Paladins. They are bent on destroying humanity and will definitely fight with the human side next. In terms of combat power, the human side is still at a disadvantage for the time being.

"You don't seem to be optimistic about this matter," said Rentaro Satsuma.

"That's right. Once the Royal Knights deploy three or more Paladins in the human world, our situation will be very bad. Conventional combat forces will hardly pose any threat to them."

Kanda Osamu nodded and asked again: "Did Mr. Nishijima say when he would return?"

Satsuma Rentaro glanced at him and said, "When Nishijima left, I was still being investigated by the Ministry of Secrets."

"That's right..."

Kanda Osamu thought for a while and looked at Satsuma again: "Then let's stop here for today. It's getting late. I'll go back first."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

……

……

After watching Kanda Osamu leave, Satsuma Rentaro suddenly stood up from his seat. With his usual cold and serious expression, he slowly walked to the door of a laboratory and stopped.

This used to be Akihiro Kurata's laboratory. It had been abandoned since the revival of Belphemon, the "Demon Lord of Sloth". However, with Rentaro Satsuma taking over DATS again, this laboratory also welcomed a new owner.

"Kagura Tsukasa, how is the research going?"

The person who appeared in Satsuma's eyes was a very young researcher, who looked somewhat similar to Akihiro Kurata, also wearing glasses and a green shirt under his white coat. He was the researcher newly sent by the Ministry of Confidentiality to take over the DATS laboratory.

Perhaps having learned from previous experience, after the arrival of this new researcher, DATS dispatched most of the logistical personnel to monitor and inspect the laboratory. In addition to this, they also strictly blocked Kagura's communication with the outside world.

Kagura Tsukasa did not object to these unreasonable behaviors. On the contrary, he behaved very submissively. Since moving into this laboratory, his only job every day was to study the summoning diagram engraved with ancient runes.

In the DATS digital laboratory, Kagura Tsukasa turned around after hearing the question. After a while, he reported to Satsuma Rentaro, "These ancient runes have been confirmed to be the codes of the digital world system language. I have analyzed a part of them. This rune diagram seems to tell the story of a son of God."

"God's son?"

Hearing this name, the expression on Samo's face changed slightly.

He was of course aware that gods existed in the digital world. From the various intelligence gathered by DATS, whether it was the previous god "World Tree" or the current god "Constancy", they seemed to possess omnipotent power and could even destroy a world at will.

The title mentioned by Kagura Tsukasa obviously caught the attention of Satsuma Rentaro. He couldn't help but wonder, what kind of abilities would this son of God who was recorded in ancient runes possess?

"Do you know the origin of this son of God and what he did?" asked Rentaro Satsuma.

"We have only partially analyzed it. It seems that he appeared out of nowhere in the Digital World. Shortly after his birth, when he was still in his growth stage, he challenged Huanglongmon, the strongest ruler of the Digital World at that time and the lord of the Four Holy Beasts."

"How did it turn out... During the growth stage, it shouldn't be a match for the Ultimate Form, right?"

Kagura shook his head. "Although he is young, the strength he showed is definitely not what he should have in his growth period. Huanglongmon was eventually suppressed by him deep underground. The Son of God replaced him and became the new emperor of the Digital World."

Satsuma Rentaro asked: "So how is the Digital World doing under his governance?"

"It can be said that there is unprecedented peace, prosperity, and strength. The Digimon of this period are undoubtedly strong."

At this point, Kagura's tone was filled with regret again: "But this doesn't mean much. The rule of the Son of God only lasted for a period of time before it was destroyed by ten unknown Digimon."

"The last part of this rune diagram seems to record a ceremony for resurrecting the Son of God. After completing the corresponding ceremony, the Son of God will return from hell."

"very nice."

Satsuma Rentaro nodded. "The powerful and extraordinary Son of God may be the power we need right now. We can try to advance the summoning ceremony for him, but try to remain relatively vigilant."

He attached great importance to this experiment. If what was recorded on the rune map was true, then after the summoning was successful, it would affect the entire human world and the threat posed by the Royal Knights would no longer exist.

Of course, no matter how nice Kagura Tsukasa's words were, he would not really listen to this one-sided statement and let the people around him look up to Kagura Tsukasa. He took away a copy of the rune map and prepared to find a researcher who understood ancient runes to analyze it.

...But who else is there who is a researcher who knows a lot about the digital world?

Maybe Kanda Shuu would have some clues. I can ask him later, Satsuma Rentaro thought.

Chapter 131: Encounter with the Great Devil

On Sunday, after waking up, Kanda Osamu turned on the TV and looked for news related to Kamishiro.

But what surprised him was that Kamishiro Enterprise did not take any action and everything seemed normal.

Although he knew that the Royal Knights were behind Kamishiro, Kanda Osamu was unable to take any action until they were completely exposed.

Since there was nothing to do for the time being, he planned to take a good rest and then go to the Mu Hai Office in the afternoon to report on the progress of the commission.

Coming to the refrigerator and seeing that there were only a few ingredients left inside, Kanda Osamu decided to use this time to go to the mall and do some shopping.

People on the street still looked hurried. Occasionally, he could hear many people discussing the hottest topic recently, "Electronic EDEN Space". There were no major changes in the nearby shopping malls. He casually walked into a shopping mall and began to choose ingredients.

Compared to the bread he eats at school, Kanda Osamu prefers to cook his own meals. Whether in terms of deliciousness or nutrition, the bento he makes himself is far more worthy of choice than cold bread.

However, because he couldn't get rid of his bad habit of staying in bed, he had to continue eating pineapple buns at noon every day. He only had time to cook for himself after school in the evening and on weekends.

This was the time when Kamishiro Enterprise was at its peak. When Shuichi Kanda walked into the mall, he clearly saw the promotional advertisement for "Electronic EDEN Space". It seemed that this situation would continue for some time, after all, the topic was indeed very popular.

In particular, Kamishiro Enterprise's "Electronic EDEN Space" did exactly what it promised to people, combining virtual services and electronic space to create a realistic online world, which attracted the attention of most news media.

"But, the electronic EDEN space..."

Kanda Osamu turned and walked into the food area. To be honest, if it didn't involve the Royal Knights, he would be quite interested in this technology, a cyberspace that fully realizes virtual stealth and servers connected to the whole world.

Unfortunately, this technology is controlled by the Royal Knights. Before figuring out what harm it can do, Kanda Osamu has no intention of experiencing this cyberspace in depth.

Not to mention the "EDEN syndrome" that appeared not long ago. A group of [predators] are roaming in cyberspace to hunt. I wonder if Motang has solved this problem.

As he was thinking and selecting ingredients, suddenly a figure attracted Kanda Shu's attention, and the other party happened to discover him.

"Oh~ Isn't this Xiao Xiu?"

After rubbing his eyes repeatedly, he found that he was not hallucinating. The other person was obviously the perfect superman with a bad temper, beautiful appearance, and good attitude towards people - Yukinoshita Haruno.

Not expecting to meet her here, Kanda Osamu fell silent, not knowing what to say for a moment. But when he smelled a fragrance from his nose, he suddenly came to his senses and realized that the woman was already standing in front of him.

"…Good morning, Sister Yang."

"Uh-huh... Good morning, Xiu."

Seemingly very happy with Kanda Osamu's answer, Yukinoshita Haruno smiled, her light long skirt fluttering, like a cheerful older sister. She approached Kanda intimately and stared at his face closely.

What is going on... This guy is too idle.

Kanda Osamu, who was a little overwhelmed, took a few steps back unconsciously, "What can I do for you, Sister Yang No?"

Noticing his unintentional change in movements, Yukinoshita Haruno laughed as if she had succeeded in a prank. She shook her head slightly and put some distance between them: "Ah, Xiu, your question is really rude."

"Is it okay for me to not come and play with you?"

Wow...this woman is so mean.

Kanda Osamu did not respond to Yukinoshita Haruno's teasing, but shrugged helplessly, then ignored the woman in front of him and walked towards the freezer in front.
