The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

圣居

Led by Rentaro Satomi, Kisara came to a corridor that seemed to be shrouded in a layer of holy light.

"It's so big..." Mu muttered softly as he looked around.

Although it is not the first time I come here, the exclamation is indeed the same.

Even with someone leading the way, it still took her a long time to walk. If she was alone, she would probably be lost in a few minutes.

I have already received a compensation of 1 billion. Theoretically, I can live the rest of my life in peace. I might as well not take this commission.

But the client is, after all, the Holy Emperor, the ruler of the Tokyo region. It would be a bit awkward to reject him outright.

Besides, it was just a guard mission anyway, and she had taken on similar work before - since Lin Qiao was not good at fighting, the commissions were basically completed by her.

Most of these escort commissions are not difficult except that they are time-consuming.

Basically, you just find a place and stand there like a stake for a day, and then the work is done.

There are very few situations where things actually get bad, or situations where you need to take action - provided everything goes well.

"We're here." Rentaro Satomi, who was walking in front, stopped.

It is still the same venue where the press conference was held after killing Scorpio last time.

It seemed that she was preparing for the next interview. On the white podium, the Holy Emperor was verifying something with two middle-aged men who were standing upright. Although the two men had serious expressions, she herself seemed calm and unhurried.

Two rows of empty chairs were lined up in front of the podium. People around were busy. Five or six high-definition cameras were pointed at the Holy Son of Heaven on the stage from different angles, as if they were looking for shooting angles.

When Kisara arrived, everything was just entering the final stage, so there was no need to wait too long.

"Hello, Miss Kisara."

As always, the Holy Emperor smiled peacefully and walked towards Mu Geng.

"plz follow me."

She obviously knew that this was not a place to talk business, so she took Kisara to a large room where there were not many people.

In the center of the room was a small round table and a complete set of corresponding tea sets, and on the other side, there were also things like bookshelves and dressing tables.

It seems that this is not a reception room, but the personal study of the Holy Emperor.

Rentaro Satomi, who served as a guard, was guarding the door with another person.

The maid made a cup of tea for each of them and then left the room, leaving space for the two to talk.

"Lord Saint Emperor, if possible, let's get straight to the point and talk about the content of this commission."

Mu Geng met the eyes of the Holy Emperor.

When he heard her say this, the calm and elegant expression on his face slowly faded, turning into the cold and serious look he usually showed when appearing in front of the media.

"Ms. Kisara, I wonder if you have ever heard of the name Qi Wu Zong Xuan?"

"Qi Wu Zong Xuan?"

A name that was somewhat strange, but not so strange, entered my ears.

Kisara frowned and tried hard to recall information about the other party.

She remembered that at some point in the past, probably when she was just picked up by Lin Qiao, the other party seemed to have mentioned this name to her... although it was not in a good way.

"If I remember correctly, it seems to be the leader of another region?"

"To be precise, he is the ruler of the Osaka region."

After being beaten to a bloody pulp by the gastrula creatures, the country that used to be called Japan now has only five spaces where humans can survive.

They are Tokyo, Sapporo, Sendai, Osaka and Hakata.

These five regions were ruled by five rulers respectively.

For example, the Tokyo area ruled by the Holy Emperor.

Qi Wuzong Xuan was the ruler of the Osaka area.

"I heard Qiao mention that person's reputation seems to be... very bad."

"That's right. According to what Mr. Satomi said, Saitake Sogen is exercising an extremely terrible dictatorship in the Osaka region to which he belongs."

In other words, for the overall development of the region, the value of ordinary civilians is madly exploited.

——Generally speaking, this is the survival mode in most areas in this doomsday.

In fact, there are very few areas like Tokyo that still pay attention to people's livelihood.

However, because of this, the other party has suffered countless assassination attempts... although none of them were successful.

"However, recently, President Qi Wu suddenly proposed to visit the Tokyo area, but since it is informal, it will not be made public."

The five regions are nominally allies who stand together, but in reality... five people and twenty groups should be enough to explain the problem.

"Visit? What's the reason? Someone like him wouldn't just go to other places casually, right?"

"Unfortunately, we don't know yet, but coming here at this time always makes people feel a little uneasy."

He had just received the research data of the mysterious organization from Mu Geng and Lin Qiao, and the other party asked for an interview right after that. It was really hard not to think of something.

Especially since this guy doesn't have a very good reputation.

What's worse is that after the news that Tendo Kikunosho was seriously ill some time ago, he has now gone to other countries to discuss the import and export of materials, and will not be able to return in a short time.

Although she didn't like him very much, she had to admit that compared to her who was too young in terms of dealing with people, Tendo Kikunosuke was like a pillar, supporting the Tokyo area.

I'm afraid Qi Wuzong Xuan was aiming for such an opportunity and that's why he took action decisively.

——Of course, she would not tell Kisara about this.

"Anyway, if possible, I hope Ms. Kisara can protect me as a bodyguard and attend the meeting."

"But Lord Saint, don't you have your own guard?"

Although he had no intention of refusing, Kisara still asked curiously.

"And Satomi is also inside. As a mechanical soldier, there shouldn't be any problem with a simple escort mission, right?"

This was one of the reasons why she felt puzzled.

Not to mention monsters like the Smasher, even if the other party has ill intentions and wants to play tricks on him, if he is just an ordinary assassin, with his strength, it is basically no problem for him to deal with him.

But in response to Mu Geng's question, the Holy Emperor just shook his head silently.

As if to prevent people outside from hearing, she deliberately leaned closer and said, "Although it's a bit unfair to say this, Mr. Satomi, but to be honest, I can't completely trust that person..."

The Holy Emperor is just young, but not stupid.

Rentaro Satomi was a spy sent by Tendo Kikunosho - she had known this for a long time.

That's why I've always held a grudge against her.

This is also the reason why, despite the fact that the other party has relatively outstanding personality and abilities, and has made great contributions in investigating the Smasher, he has not been promoted.

Ultimately, Rentaro Satomi is first and foremost the next generation political successor of the Tendo family, and only then her guard.

Kisara couldn't refute this point, even though they were discussing his childhood friend.

"If I seek revenge on the Tendo family, will Satomi help me?"

The words of the Holy Emperor made her think about this question again.

Although she had the answer the moment the other party advised her to give up revenge.

Chapter 220 The Confused Girl Named Tina

"Besides, since it concerns your own safety, it is better to make more preparations..."

As he spoke, the Holy Emperor involuntarily clenched the teacup in his hand, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

This can be considered as personal experience.

The assassination three years ago is still vivid in her mind. That assassination also caused her to completely lose her only relative - her mother.

If Mr. Baowei, who had just joined the guard team, had not stepped forward, she would probably have died there.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long, and the only person who truly cared for her disappeared.

With such a great sage in the middle, she just felt cold.

In a sense, the reason she kept the position of captain of the guard team, besides because she didn't trust Rentaro Satomi, was that she hoped he could return safely.

"Then, can you please accept this commission, Ms. Kisara?"

"Oh, I understand. I'll take it." Mu Ni gave his answer seriously.

"Thank you very much, Miss Kisara."

"If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

Finally, he drank the tea in the cup and sat up from his seat.

"Please wait a moment, Ms. Kisara, there is one more thing."

Just when she was about to get up and leave, the Holy Emperor suddenly called her again.

"Last time at the banquet, when Captain Howaki was mentioned, Ms. Kisara's expression seemed a little strange. If possible, could you reveal it?"

"..."

Kisara, who had just taken a step with his right leg, stopped but did not turn around. The expression on his face was a little stiff, and then there was a hint of struggle.

"If there is any inconvenience, please pretend I never said anything..." As if he saw Mu Geng's embarrassment, the Holy Emperor said sympathetically.

"No, it's not an inconvenience. I just don't know how to say it."

Although she did not intend to hide the truth from the other party, it was too much to conclude that the other party's savior was the evil Blood Riot based on just a quirk of his speech.

——But on the other hand, if it were true, it would be terrible.

"I'd like to make it clear in advance, Lord Saint Emperor, that the above are just my guesses. I can't guarantee whether there are any misjudgments or anything else..."

He turned around helplessly, and after hesitating for a long time, he decided to speak.

.......

By the time Kisaragi came out of the holy residence, the sun was about to set. A ray of setting sun hung in the sky, dyeing it red.

Kisara yawned loudly, making a somewhat comfortable sound, but then he sighed for who knows how many times that day.

Although there is no substantial evidence, after hearing about Blood Riot, the mood of the Tokyo area ruler was obviously instantly depressed.

She was prepared to be reprimanded...

But the other party's behavior after that made her feel a little guilty.

Not only did he not pursue the matter, he also personally introduced the members of the guard to her - but those people's attitude towards her was as cold as expected.

It's understandable. After all, the Holy Emperor's approach of seeking external assistance clearly shows that he doesn't trust their guard team.

But they couldn't cause trouble for their immediate superior, the Holy Emperor...so Kigen became the one who took the blame.

It was because of Rentaro Satomi, the captain who was not the captain, that this indifference did not turn into hostility.

"I feel like I've done something bad..."

If the same thing happened to her, she would probably cry, right?

With a sigh and looking at the increasingly dark sky, Mu Geng walked up and looked for his motorcycle parked nearby.

But just at this moment, a loud noise made her stop.

Near the fountain, three young men who looked like thugs were surrounding a little girl who looked about the same age as Yanzhu and Bushicui.

In the sunset, her messy golden hair fluttered in the wind and she was wearing a pair of loose pajamas that were obviously ill-fitting.

His eyes were drooped, almost closed, and he still looked sleepy even when he was surrounded by people.

A bicycle lay twisted and distorted on one side.

Judging from the content of their argument, it seems that the girl accidentally ran over one of the men's feet while riding a bicycle, and the three men wanted to extort compensation from him.
