Chihaya Aine will not fall into the Shura field, never!

After school that afternoon, Aine and Kodama came to RiNG again, this time to discuss their trip to Narumi City.

"Aiyin, Deng, have you two taken leave yet?"

When Ai Yin and Xiao Deng entered the private room, Li Xi had already arrived.

"Hmm, haven't Su Shi and Rakuna arrived yet?"

"The procedures at the Moon Forest are quite complicated. Su Shi said she would be a little late. As for the wild cat, it came before, but it went out when it saw that I was alone. It must have gone to find food."

As expected of the person who had spent the most time with Ronai besides Aine, Su Shi knew Ronai inside and out. Not long after, Su Shi led Ronai into the private room, and Li Xi looked at Su Shi in surprise.

"It's really a wonder you managed to bring the stray cat here."

"Well, we ran into Lena on our way here, so we brought her along. You all got your leave approved, right?"

"The schools here are relatively lenient in their management."

Lixi shrugged.

"On the contrary, things must have been more difficult for you in the Moon Forest, right?"

"I finally got the leave slip."

Su Shi sighed softly. You see, she had put in a lot of effort to get this leave slip. Unlike Yuu and Hanasaki, Tsukimori was a school that specialized in training magical girls. However, in addition to being magical girls, they were also young ladies from well-off families. Naturally, they were managed more strictly. Otherwise, what would happen if their parents retaliated against the school if something really happened?

"Now that we have the leave slips, let's set off immediately."

"Huh? Let's leave now?"

Ai Yin looked at Su Shi in surprise.

"Didn't you say it was just to discuss some things?"

“Things have changed. Last night, You Li found out that we had taken on this case. This incident is somewhat related to her, so she contacted me immediately when she found out it was me. I guess the people who are coming to pick us up should be arriving soon.”

Su Shi's explanation made Ai Yin even more impressed by the extraordinary abilities of the Hua Cheng family.

"No, but isn't this too rushed? Don't we need to prepare anything like a change of clothes? We don't even know how long we'll be staying there."

"Are you worried about these things with the Huacheng family?"

Su Shi gave her a disgruntled look. With the Hua Cheng family's power, they could easily provide you with a whole luxury package and let you experience the warmth of "home".

When Aine realized that the entire underground Tokyo Stock Exchange was established with the financial support of the Hanashiro family, she was speechless. Although her own family was also quite wealthy, compared to a behemoth like the Hanashiro family, they couldn't even see their backs.

Just then, Su Shi's phone rang.

"Hello, Grandpa Butler."

Su Shi answered the phone, heard what the other person was saying, and immediately replied.

"We'll be right out, please wait a moment."

After hanging up the phone, Su Shi quickly gestured.

"Alright, stop worrying about those things. The people are already waiting for us. Let's get going."

Aine deeply appreciated the efficiency of these wealthy people. They could leave at a moment's notice. Less than a minute after they gathered, they were driven directly to a private airport, then boarded a private plane and took off directly to Narumi City, a journey that took less than an hour.

While Aine and the others were heading to Narumi City, the Wakaba family exclaimed, "Oh dear, why has our Miss Shoko changed her mind again?"

In the living room of the Wakaba family home, five girls sat alone, with no one else around. The girl who spoke was named Yutenji Wakana, whose code name in Ave Mujica was Amoris. She was also a well-known beauty blogger online.

"Aren't you worried about your student?"

"She will be working on some projects outside for the time being, so there's no need to worry about that for now."

Seemingly not understanding the sarcasm in Ruomai's tone, Xiangzi's expression remained completely indifferent, and he didn't even glance at Ruomai.

As a teammate, Xiangzi knew why Ruomai joined the team, and she also knew that if anything happened to Ave Mujica, the first person to leave and sever all ties with Ave Mujica would definitely be Yutenji Ruomai.

"Xiao Mu, I'm going to take that anonymous commission to send us to Minghai City. How long will that take?"

"It will be ready tomorrow."

Xiao Mu remained quiet to the side.

She was quiet, and only when Xiangzi asked her a question would she look up and answer with a single sentence.

“Alright, we’ll head to Narumi City tomorrow. If what the anonymous commissioner said is true, and what appeared in Narumi City is indeed the Seed of the Sacred Stone, then we must get our hands on it.”

Although she had expected it, Aine was still unable to calm down when she saw the manor in front of her.

Ai Yin had seen many more magnificent and spectacular manor than the one before her, including the Royal Academy of Magic in London. However, the Royal Academy of Magic was a public school, while the manor before her was merely a private residence.

The distance from the gate to the house is so great that it takes a few minutes to get there by car, and more than ten minutes to walk.

The person who picked up Aine and the others was an old acquaintance, Sebastian, who had helped them in the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange before.

"Ladies, we've arrived."

Sebastian pulled up in front of a house that resembled a castle, and the people who had been waiting around the house quickly opened the car doors.

"Hey, I can do it myself."

Ai Yin came out somewhat embarrassed; this was the first time she had ever received such treatment.

Not only Ai-yin, but also Li-xi and Xiao-deng were thanking the person who opened the door for them. Su-shi, on the other hand, had probably been to Hua-cheng's house several times and was already used to this kind of thing.

"Ladies, you don't need to be so polite. It's just our duty."

Sebastian smiled and bowed. Although it was their duty, the politeness of the person they were dealing with warmed their hearts.

"The young lady is waiting for you inside, please come in quickly."

Upon hearing Sebastian's words, Aine and the others disregarded formalities and quickly followed Sebastian into the castle.

"Lena, don't run around!"

Upon entering the castle, Aine noticed Ron looking around curiously, so she immediately grabbed Ron's hand to prevent her from getting lost and having to look for her.

About five minutes later, Sebastian led the five people to a room and gently knocked on the door.

"Young Miss, Miss Su Shi and several guests have arrived."

“Oh, Grandpa Sebastian, please let them in.”

Yuri's voice came from inside the room. Upon hearing this, Sebastian gently opened the door.

"Ladies, please come in."

"Thank you, Grandpa Butler."

Su Shi nodded politely and went inside, with Aine and the other three following behind her.

The room was filled with expensive furniture, some of which were the same brands as those in Aine's home, but there were also some pieces that Aine had only heard of but never seen before.

Inside the room, besides Hanashiro Yuri, whom I had seen on the screen at the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange, there was also an unfamiliar blonde girl in a formal suit.

"You Li, do you have any more friends coming?"

Upon seeing Su Shi and the others, the blonde girl looked embarrassed.

"If that's the case, I should have come to see you tomorrow."

No, Fate.

Yu Li got up and quickly pressed Fate, who was trying to get up and saying something that would bother her, back onto the sofa.

"Didn't you say you wanted to find some help? It just so happens that Su Shi and the others also took on this case, so I asked them to come over."

After saying that, You Li looked at Su Shi and the others.

"Su Shi, come here quickly, let me introduce you."

After the five people sat down together, You Li began the introductions.

“Fate Testarossa Hagewin, I think you should have heard of her, one of the members of Maneuver 6 Lessons.”

Upon hearing Yuri's introduction, Aine looked at Fate in surprise. This was the teammate of Takamachi Nanoha, who had solved the ancient legacy incident at the young age of nine!

A big shot!

Keep in mind that the five members of Maneuver 6 Lessons are all magical girls, yet they are able to compete for resources with top-tier professional esports teams. This is the first time such a case has occurred in Country D since the advent of magic.

Even those teams that Ai Yin considered excellent two years ago, the resident teams in live houses, were still slightly inferior to the top-tier professional teams at the time.

"These people over here are Nagasaki Motoyo and her friends."

"Chihaya Aine."

"Takamatsu Tou."

"Shiina Riki."

"To Lenai."

Ai Yin and the others hurriedly introduced themselves.

"So it's you."

When Fate heard Aine and the others introduce themselves, she remembered who these people in front of her were.

Although the news had spread widely in Tokyo, most people in Narumi City were unaware of what had happened in Tokyo a few days earlier because they lived in different cities.

Fate knew this because Su Shi was Yu Li's friend, and Yu Li always paid close attention to his friends' affairs.

Just like the matter of Xiangzi that Su Shi had been searching for, You Li also knew about it.

It was only because Xiangzi had asked Youli for help, and both sides were her friends, and she couldn't interfere in things like team battles, that she kept it a secret from Su Shi.

"How was it, Fate? The person I introduced was pretty reliable, wasn't he?"

Yu Li smiled and looked at Fate.

"If it were them, they wouldn't easily attract the attention of those people at this juncture, and they would also have the ability to protect themselves."

"Ah."

Felicity nodded. She had seen the video sent by You Li and had a certain understanding of the strength of the five people in front of her.

"However, this matter is still a bit dangerous, You Li. Have you explained it properly?"

"Well, not yet, but don't worry, Fate. They're not unrelated people. Nanoha asked Aunt Lindy for help, and the people Aunt Lindy found recommended them, so I had them brought over directly."

Yu Li explained.

"That's right, so Miss Fate, please tell us the detailed information about that suspected Seed of the Holy Stone."

Ai Yin said.

"alright."

Fate thought for a moment, "If that's the case, then we can only ask you for help on our end."

"The story begins a month ago. A month ago, my friend, the Guardian Knight of Gale, discovered a strange magical power in Narumi City. Following this lead, he found members of the Zero Cult in Narumi City."

Upon hearing the name from Fate's mouth, apart from Kodama, who already knew Yuri and was somewhat bewildered, and Rakuna, who had been looking around and would have disappeared long ago if Aine hadn't held her down, the other three people all showed expressions of disgust.

The Zero Cult, as the name suggests, is a cult that is universally condemned and formed by a group that worships the Zero Beast. Their doctrine is to dedicate everything to the greatness of the Zero Beast, and even hate being born as a human being instead of the Zero Beast.

The key point is that zero-worshipping cults are actually present all over the world.

They exist, though they cannot openly declare their identity; however, in every country, there are followers of the zero-worship religion.

Cults like this are intolerable to any country, and once discovered, they will be arrested and brought to justice at all costs.

"During that incident, the people of the Zero Cult used a magical seed to escape the pursuit of the guardian knights. However, its appearance and the magical fluctuations on it were recorded. After confirmation by Nanoha and me, that seed is very similar to the ancient relic that Nanoha and I fought over seven years ago, the Holy Stone Seed."

"But didn't Miss Fate say that the Zero Cult had already escaped? Did they discover something?"

Su Shi asked in confusion.

"Yes, because I also have a reliable teammate on my side."

Fate smiled slightly.

“In Narumi City, even Yu Li’s family probably doesn’t have as much influence as her.”

You mean Suzuka?
