The Chosen Ones Also Want a Youth Romance Story

"Whose is it?"

"It's a dead paladin. I retrieved his information from the database, and luckily I backed it up before. You're really worthy of me, right? I even foresaw something like this..."

Mikihara Norn put down the Digimon in her hand. Yukinoshita Yukino heard what she just said and became curious. According to the information she had learned, the Royal Knights had always been at the top of the Digital World. Had a Paladin already died?

But the data backup that Noren mentioned...

It seemed as if this sentence was deliberately meant to lead her to ask questions, but Yukinoshita Yukino still took the bait.

"You mean, even if the data disappears, he can still be resurrected?"

"Hehe, I am the god of the digital world and possess many mysterious powers..." Mikihara Noren put his hands on his hips and began to talk incessantly, but before he could say two sentences, he saw his listeners shaking their heads helplessly.

"Hey... why do you have that expression? Don't you believe me?"

"No, I'm just a little uneasy."

Mikihara Norn was stunned for a moment and put away the digital egg in her hand. They were now in the data channel of cyberspace. Looking behind them, they could no longer see the shadows of the other chosen ones.

……

……

After receiving the text message from Kagura Tsukasa, the previously made plan had to make some changes. After all, the hostages in the photo were Daimon Dai's sister and members of the Servant Club, and they, the chosen ones, had no idea what Kagura Tsukasa's purpose was.

According to the information provided by Thomas, the researcher seemed to have been performing a "Son of God" summoning ritual before, trying to use the resources of DATS to awaken ancient angel-type Digimon, but after asking Mikihara Noren, she was very sure that the World Tree had not created an ancient angel with the title of "Son of God".

Kagura Tsukasa...what on earth is that guy doing?

Although some of the Gitzmon are still under his control, they are not a threat to the current Chosen Ones. But if he uses these Gitzmon to threaten everyone, Kanda Osamu and the others are not sure they can protect the other hostages.

Kagura Tsukasa's actions were very efficient, and it was obvious at first glance that he had been preparing for a long time. Since this guy dared to show up, it would be difficult for him to reveal any flaws.

"So... can the speed be faster?" asked Daimon.

The threat of the Royal Knights did not disappear. Although they decided to change the plan, the Chosen Ones participating in the rescue were only led by Daigo Nishijima and the members of DATS were responsible for carrying out the rescue. The protection of Mikihara Noren was handed over to Yukinoshita Yukino at her own suggestion.

"This is already the fastest speed." Thomas's expression was serious, without any relaxation. He believed 90% of the text message sent by Kagura Tsukasa, and of course he understood Daimon's impatience: "I won't say any more nonsense... When you arrive, remember to meet up with your partner first."

This place is still some distance away from the location sent by Kagura Tsukasa, but no matter what, they will soon arrive there by traveling through the data channel... What they will face next is the Gizmon Army controlled by Kagura Tsukasa.

Damen nodded and said, "Thank you very much for this time, Master."

"Although it's what I should do, but after this incident, remember to invite me to your house for dinner."

Thomas didn't care about the address from Daimon. He just patted the phantom Gaogamon under him while speaking. The Beast Knight immediately understood what he meant and accelerated towards the exit of the data channel with Thomas and Daimon on his back.

"Isn't this even faster?!"

In the end, Da Men Da was severely taught a lesson...

"Young Master doesn't seem like a good title... although that guy's identity is indeed not simple." Nishijima Daigo, who was left behind, nodded in agreement and turned to look at Fujieda Toshino: "Really, a bad operator?"

"Hey! Why do I have a weird nickname too? And the catchphrase I always say is really annoying, okay?"

"There shouldn't be much difference between being terrible and being really terrible, right?"

Fujieda Shunno has worked in DATS for so long and is no longer a diligent trainee. When she thinks that Nishijima Daigo has left, she immediately becomes confident: "Nishijima-senpai... I think you should also have a nickname. Let's call you Single Dog Daigo."

"You are very brave."

Nishijima Daigo was counterattacked by his junior and immediately made some harsh remarks. He patted the forehead of the White Tiger Beast. After a few flashes, the holy beast accelerated and disappeared at the corner of the data channel, while Fujieda Toshino laughed heartily, thinking that Nishijima Daigo had lost to her.

Perhaps the opponents on this trip were not too threatening, or perhaps it was the nature of the chosen ones, even though they were about to reach their destination, the atmosphere between them was not too tense... but they were not relaxed either.

Kagura Tsukasa, the researcher who controls Gizmon, is very powerful when facing ordinary people, but all the Gizmon combined are no match for the three Ultimate Forms... However, after this guy revealed his position, Nishijima Daigo was a little suspicious, but he had no idea what Kagura Tsukasa's back-up plan was.

The chosen ones, along with their partners, headed to the location of Kagura.

Fault lines in cyberspace.

Although it is a bridge between the real world and the digital world, there are also some chaotic gaps in cyberspace. Some can be observed, while there are also some chaotic areas that are completely unrecognizable.

The Digimon that have the authority to travel through the data channel call it the "Fault Zone". Even the graveyard of discarded data and the "Dark Zone" where the Demon Lords are imprisoned is actually a Fault Zone, but it was anchored deep in the ocean of the network by ancient administrators, so it can be observed with the naked eye.

The location sent by Kagura was in a fault area in cyberspace, and seemed to be a mirror image of an ancient city.

There is no trace of any data life form here.

So... when Thomas and Damen arrived first, what they saw was not the Gizmon Legion waiting for them, but an empty city with data that should have been deleted still floating below. It was obvious that the cracks in this area were so large that they could no longer cover up the loss of data.

“I didn’t expect this to be the case.”

Thomas frowned and said, "Damen, is there any good idea? Your Tyrannosaurus should be able to sense the location of your partner, take it out..."

"We have to know where they are now."

Chapter 198: Dragons Live There

Kanda Osamu had no idea what his good friend had encountered.

The sound of [Devourer]'s electricity and the red dragon's breath mixed together, circling around Kanda Osamu's ears, making his face look grim.

Gently rubbing his ears, Kanda Osamu calmly raised his head and his eyes fell on the giant beast that blocked out the sky above.

This is Odaiba, the area where the out-of-control Royal Knight, Examon, is staying. Due to the influence of the "EDEN Syndrome", the control authority of the Gizmon Self-Defense Force has been paralyzed one after another. These transformed Digimon are staying in place, repeating the order to "monitor the Dragon Emperor".

When the Royal Knights first arrived, the residents of the area saw the out-of-control Examon, and after realizing that he was a real Digimon, they all fled the area and asked for protection and help from DATS.

The entire DATS started operating at full speed under the command of the Ministry of Secrets. Some of the modified Gizmon were sent here. They monitored the every move of the Dragon Emperor - Examon, blocked the entire street, and tried to suppress Examon by relying on their numerical advantage.

However, Examon, which had lost its self-awareness, ignored the insects below. Although its large size meant that the Dragon Emperor could only stay and rest on this artificial land, when Examon began to move, the huge amount of data was enough for him to crush these weak transformed Digimon.

"The top of the Dragon Digimon... Ash, the level of corrosion is very high. I think there will be a fierce battle next."

The voice came from Kanda Shu, and Omegamon appeared in front of the Tyrannosaurus Rex. He had been staying inside and observing Examon above Odaiba.

"An unusual amount of data. Is this Digimon also a member of the Royal Knights?"

Omegamon let out a rare sigh, and the energy in his body was trembling slightly. It was unknown whether it was affected by the eroding aura or because they were going to fight and kill each other with the legendary Dragon Emperor.

His pale blue eyes flickered as he stared at Kanda Osamu outside the Tyrannosaurus Rex. He saw himself in his partner's figure, and did not retreat because of the power of Examon. Instead, he was full of vigor.

He might not be a match for Examon, but with a partner, he can definitely win this battle.

"Is it almost our turn?"

Kanda Shu asked. Unlike Nishijima Daigo's mission, he must defeat the Dragon Emperor here. The Chosen Ones cannot retreat. This is the last obstacle to their success. How could they be frightened by the oppressive feeling of the "Royal Knight" Examon?

"...[Eater-Bit] is also on me. Although this power itself is a strange curse, it is better to solve the problem as soon as possible."

Kanda Osamu has prepared everything.

The rooftop of Odaiba is filled with the aura of the Dragon Emperor. Looking up, one can see the dragon scales covered with deep red veins, as if they are burned red. The giant wings with will just flap lightly, and a whistling wind blows in the face. The heavy dragon roars like thunder continue one after another. Even if it loses consciousness, Examon's voice is still so loud.

Kanda Shu took a deep breath, stood up straight, felt the burning Tyrannosaurus in his hand, and finally couldn't help but shout out in anger.

"Let's go! Omegamon!"

The dazzling white light quickly filled the entire rooftop. The energy symbolizing will crossed the sky. The sharp Tyrannosaurus Sword tore through the heavy breathing of Examon. The figure of the pure white knight flashed out, announcing the beginning of the legendary battle.

The first to attack was Omegamon. The Tyrannosaurus Sword wrapped in dragon flames collided with the giant wings with will, causing a roar.

As the Paladin expected, the strong impact force hit him back, and "Karedeulf" turned into an Examon shield, but this could not stop him.

The extreme cold is coming, freezing.

An ice-blue beam burst out from the muzzle of the Garuru Cannon, and the absolute zero freezing bullet cut through the gap of "Karedeulf", separating part of the giant wings from the Dragon Emperor - Examon.

Omegamon took this opportunity and quickly moved forward.

With the blessing of the Badge of Courage and the Badge of Friendship, Omegamon's power has already reached its peak before he lost his memory. His power has surpassed that of his former opponents. He is infinitely close to the "Sloth" Demon Lord Belphemon who was devoured by the [Devourer], and has even surpassed him.

"Tyrannosaurus Hurricane Sword!"

Omegamon raised the Tyrannosaurus Sword and pointed the tip of the sword at Examon. The collision between the Dragon's Holy Sword and the Dragon Emperor's scales made an especially shocking sound.

The heat wave of the hurricane spread out in all directions along with the collision, and the strong wind pressure caused the cloak on Omegamon's back to flutter backwards.

Examon raised his head silently, his entire brain had lost control. The [Devourer] that was living in his body turned his body into a large gap. From the area where the Devourer was attached, one could even see the data surging inside.

At the moment when the Dragon Emperor raised his head, chaotic erosion fell along with the flapping of the giant wings "Karedeulf", and the biting wind swirled around the body of Examon.

When Omegamon was about to attack, Examon, the pinnacle of the Dragon Digimon, arrived on the battlefield with his true will!

"Roar!!!"

With a deafening roar of anger, the Dragon Emperor forcibly overcame the control of the [Invader] over his consciousness, and the [Invader], sensing his presence, covered the body of the Examon along the crimson dragon scales like a parasite.

At the same time, a dazzling glow gushed out from the spear "Ambrosius", as if an unstoppable dragon soul resided in this huge spear.

The holy guardian of the Digital World spread his wings, exhaled fire, and let out a roar that resounded through the earth. The giant wings "Karedeulf" with their own will flapped, and swooped down from mid-air with Examon, like a meteorite about to fall into the sea, setting off huge waves.

"Dragon! Charge!!!"

With the pressure of anger and the downward dive, the huge spear "Ambrosius" fell along the building of Odaiba, brushing against Omegamon's head, and even the Shield of Courage he released was crushed into shattered and scattered energy particles.

The pure white armor on the chest was destroyed in an instant, the edges of the helmet were directly broken, and under the influence of the shock wave, the red and white cloak on the back of Omegamon was torn into tattered pieces of cloth.

The enormous impact force finally exceeded the limit that Odaiba could withstand, and the towering building collapsed instantly. The heat aftermath caused by the friction with the atmosphere hit Omegamon, and pain spread from every part of the Paladin's body.

Kanda Shu was knocked off Omegamon's shoulder by the suffocating heat wave. He even felt that his body was burning. Even with the protection of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, he could hardly breathe. The Chosen One and the Pure White Knight fell down together.

"It's almost time!"

As Omegamon fell, Kanda Osamu whispered with determination, and then he took out [Eater-Bit]. The opponent seemed to sense something and quickly moved towards Omegamon. Pure corrosive power burst out from its body, as if it wanted to devour all data.

"We absolutely cannot fall here——Omegamon!!!"

The next moment, the long-dormant erosion broke through its limit, and the virus program that had almost solidified into substance wreaked havoc and swept across the entire area.

[Degree of erosion -100%]!

The rampant virus program and the remaining trace vaccine program repelled each other in the body. In an instant, the Paladin who took the last step beyond the Ultimate Form and evolved into a virus species descended on the battlefield.

[Omegamon-Zwart-Defeat]!

Chapter 199: An unexpected visitor

Due to the effects of the erosion, Omegamon's damaged body no longer heals, and it repeatedly becomes exhausted and out of control.

A pitch-black hurricane rolled up over the ruins of Odaiba, and the corrosive force that seemed to be real, along with the Paladin's roar, formed this dark, strange, and chaotic storm. The Paladin's ego was completely devoured, and the Dragon Sword and Wolf Cannon trembled violently under the seal of his will.

In this out-of-control state, Omegamon-Defeat's eyes were cold, and all beings within his sight were regarded as ominous enemies. Darkness spread little by little in the hideous armor, filling his body. The virus and vaccine rejected each other in his body, and Omegamon was finally completely corroded.

At the same time, the [Devourers] on the Dragon Emperor Examon also became more fierce. They flowed upward like a surging stream, and finally gathered into surging waves on the giant wing "Karede Ulf".

"Odaiba... the erosion index... is still rising!"

In an underground laboratory not far from the battlefield, equipment and machines used to monitor data are reporting their observation results to the people inside.

"Ah~ As expected! It's just as I guessed!"

Suedou Akihiro took two steps out of the monitoring device, and a piercing laugh sounded. He opened his arms and said, "It has evolved beyond its limits. The [Invader] is not just an unknown cyber creature, but also a higher-dimensional existence."

"With its power, you can bring your thoughts and consciousness to a higher level. Oh, Kanda-san, it's great that you can do this. Don't miss this hard-earned opportunity. Then..."

He paused for a moment and said in an impatient tone, "Next, my research results will be handed over to you to complete."

As long as the power of [Eater-Bit] is continuously used, Omegamon's erosion will become deeper and the data collected will become more accurate.

After observing for so long, they no longer have any secrets for Akihiro Suedou. He has carefully understood and analyzed the degree of erosion in both Kanda Osamu and Omegamon's bodies. Now, it is his turn to reap the fruits of his labor.

"In order to elevate this imperfect world to a new level..."

Akimi Suedou was immersed in his own mind, and a beautiful future was gradually taking shape in his mind. If the monitoring machine was not still working, this underground laboratory would be so quiet that it would hardly attract anyone's attention.

"Tuk-tuk."

However, a sudden knock on the door broke the silence and slightly caught the mad scientist's attention.

Mingshi Suedou came to his senses and looked towards the door with a puzzled look. He did not respond to the knock on the door, but picked up the computer on the table calmly.

The location of this underground laboratory is very secret. He has never told anyone about it. After the Royal Knights came to the real world, the Paladins who were promoting the "Paradise Lost" plan did not care about his disappearance. No one should know the location of this basement.
