A beautiful girl who transmigrates into a Herrscher of the Void is treated like an elf and conquered

A figure walked slowly in against the dim light filtering through the corridor.

Shido's eyes widened, almost unable to believe what he was seeing—it was Chinatsu!

No, at this moment she should be called the [Herrscher of Judgment] elf!

Why is she here? !

The "Chika" before my eyes was completely different from the broken and sad look she had when we said goodbye.

She wore a black and white Herrscher outfit, glamorous yet slightly rebellious, with her skirt moving even without wind and the jet-black feathers at her neckline swaying gently.

Her pale, long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, with tiny purple sparks seemingly dancing at the ends.

What is most striking are her eyes. The golden eyes no longer flow with the sadness or madness of before, but have settled into a pure arrogance and aloofness that looks down on all living beings.

Her aura was restrained yet powerful, as if she had locked the power of destruction within her body. Only that invisible pressure made the air seem thicker.

The girl in the center of the classroom, now a princess, repeated the name in confusion, seemingly unfamiliar with the pronunciation.

"How do you spell this name?"

Chinatsu ignored Shido's astonished gaze. She walked straight to the podium, ignoring the still-smoking crater on the floor, picked up a half-burnt piece of chalk, and smoothly wrote two beautiful Chinese characters on the blackboard—

The elf girl's eyes lit up slightly as she looked at the words on the blackboard.

She seemed to understand, and stepped forward. Instead of using chalk, she extended her slender fingers, the tips of which gleamed with light, and directly carved deep marks on the blackboard, outlining the two characters "Shi Xiang".

The movement carried an innate sense of power, yet was strangely focused.

Just as she approached Chika, her nostrils twitched slightly, as if she had caught a familiar scent.

She suddenly raised her head, her amethyst-like eyes fixed on Qianxia, ​​her initial doubts quickly replaced by a huge surprise!

"This is the taste!"

Tohka cried out in surprise, and without warning, she opened her arms and pounced on Chika, who was standing by the podium, like a swallow returning to its nest!

"Eh?! Wait, wait!"

Chika was clearly caught off guard by this turn of events. Her aloof and arrogant expression instantly crumbled as she frantically tried to catch the "large pendant" that had suddenly pounced on her.

(Silly Xiang, what are you doing!)

Ignoring everything else, Tohka hugged Chinatsu tightly like a puppy that had found its owner, burying her face in the crook of Chinatsu's neck and taking a deep breath, then loudly proclaimed with absolute certainty:

"That's the smell! This boy smelled like you last time! You must be my comrade!"

Shidou: "!!!"

He froze on the spot. His brain had first crashed due to Chinatsu's sudden appearance, and now it was completely overloaded by Tohka's astonishing words and actions.

(I smell Chinatsu's scent on me?! When?! Could it be because we were in contact before... leaving a lingering scent?! When?!)

(And... Tohka... she directly recognized Chinatsu as a comrade?! And even hugged her?!)

Looking at Chinatsu, who was as aloof as an ice queen just a moment ago, but now seemed a little flustered and at a loss because of Tohka's enthusiastic hug, and then looking at Tohka, who was holding her tightly with a happy and dependent expression...

Shido felt that his worldview had been severely impacted once again.

The scene before him was completely beyond his comprehension and beyond any of Fraxinus's plans.

(What... what on earth is going on?!)

Chapter 131 The Identity Crisis

Hearing Tohka's resolute and judgmental statement, "It's your scent!"

Qianxia instantly felt a chill run from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head, as if half of her blood had turned cold.

(Holy crap?! Tohka, is your nose a dog's?! How could you smell something from so long ago?! And of all times, you had to say it now!)

(Oh no, oh no, oh no! Those shrewd people from Fraxinus are definitely analyzing this like crazy! Kotori and Reine are so intelligent... they might actually be able to uncover all my secrets by following this line of inquiry!)

(It's fine if "Walter" is fake, but if they even suspect that "Chinatsu and Chiin are two different people," then things will get really messed up!)

My heart was in turmoil, and the barrage of comments about "doom" was flooding the screen.

But Chika knew that it was precisely at times like these that she couldn't afford to show weakness!

Deny it? Wouldn't that make you seem guilty and eager to cover something up? It would only increase suspicion!

(Stay calm! You must stay calm! I am now the noble and aloof [Herrscher of Judgment], shouldering the mission of reversing entropy! Don't panic!)

She forcefully suppressed her inner panic, trying to maintain the icy arrogance and aloofness on her face.

However, this "large pendant" in her arms became the biggest obstacle to maintaining her persona!

Tohka seemed completely immersed in the immense joy of finding her "kindred spirits," utterly oblivious to the turmoil raging within Chinatsu.

Like a little animal that has found the warmest nest, she not only hugged it tightly, but also began to rub her cheeks affectionately against Chinatsu's neck and chest, making satisfied, animal-like whimpering sounds, her amethyst eyes sparkling with pure trust and joy.

(Hey! Stop rubbing! It's so itchy! And there's another place you can't rub against!)

(Help! Why is this child so clingy?! What happened to the aloof princess?! This isn't like the script we were supposed to be writing!)

Chika screamed inwardly. Her carefully constructed, ice queen-like face began to crumble visibly under Tohka's unsuspecting onslaught of coquettishness.

She frantically tried to steady the girl in her arms, wanting to push away the overly intimate contact to avoid shattering her "cool and aloof older sister" image, but also afraid that too much movement would hurt the other person or make her seem too resistant, arousing more suspicion.

Her movements were stiff, tinged with a barely perceptible panic. The deliberately arrogant look in her eyes, as if she were looking down on everyone, was replaced by helplessness and a little bit of bewilderment.

At this moment, she didn't seem like a Herrscher who wields thunder and space, but rather like a young mother who was being pestered by her overly lively and clingy child, wanting to be serious but unable to bring herself to be ruthless. The forced composure on her face and the genuine helplessness in her eyes created an extremely adorable contrast.

Unfortunately, all of this was seen by Shido, who was standing nearby!

Shido's blue eyes were staring intently at them, filled with shock, confusion, and a hint of... he seemed to want to ask something.

(No! I can't let him ask that! Who knows what fatal question that idiot will ask!)

Chika's alarm bells rang loudly. Almost instinctively, she reacted the instant Shido's lips moved slightly, as if he was about to make a sound.

She turned her head sharply, her golden eyes, still retaining a trace of helplessness from dealing with Tohka's coquettishness, glaring fiercely at Shido!

Her eyes contained a wealth of information: warning, threat, and a hint of coquettishness born of embarrassment that she herself was unaware of.

It's as if it's saying, "Shut up! Be quiet!"

This glare, completely out of character for "The Judge" and filled with strong personal emotion, made Shido swallow back the words he was about to say.

She could only stare blankly at the extremely incongruous yet inexplicably harmonious scene before her eyes—an elf trying hard to maintain a high level of coolness that was about to crumble, and a newborn elf clinging to her like a koala, acting coquettishly.

Chika wanted to cry but couldn't.

(What is going on?! My Anti-Entropy recruitment! My high-class image! My online persona! All ruined by this silly girl's nose and her whining!)

(And Shido, what's with that look?! Don't look! Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!)

She was internally ranting and raving while still having to deal with Tohka, who kept nuzzling against her, and felt like she was about to have a mental breakdown.

Before this "cooling down and correction" plan even began, he was already embroiled in an unprecedented image crisis and a crisis of identity.

Chapter 132 Clues and Puzzle, and Amazing Deductions

When Chika pushed open the door and appeared with a completely different arrogant demeanor, the entire Fraxinus bridge instantly erupted in chaos!

"Target detected! Identification code—[Judgment]! It highly matches the spiritual energy waveforms of the previous 'Herrscher of Reason' and 'Hououin Chika'!"

The operator's voice was filled with disbelief and shock.

"Why is she here?!"

"Didn't she leave?"

"She just mentioned 'Tohka'? She knows this spirit?!"

The crew was in an uproar, with various speculations and exclamations rising and falling.

However, what truly plunged the bridge into a deathly silence was Tohka's subsequent earth-shattering statement—

"That's the smell! This boy smelled like you last time!"

This statement was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly creating ripples!

Kotori suddenly stood up from her commander's chair, nearly dropping the jewel in her mouth.

She stared intently at Tohka, who was tightly embracing Chinatsu on the main screen, and Shido, who was completely stunned beside her, her brain starting to work at an unprecedented speed.

“The scent… Shido has her scent on him…” Kotori murmured to herself, her eyes sharp as an eagle’s.

"The last time we met... was it the day of the spacequake alarm?! Where did Shido and she meet?!"

She immediately turned to the control panel and ordered sharply, "Retrieve all records and related reports about Shido's whereabouts that day! Now!"

The data stream was moving rapidly, and previous reports and intelligence were quickly retrieved and integrated:

• Timeline: On the day of the spacequake alarm, Shido, Kotori, and Chiin meet on their way to school -> The alarm sounds -> Shido, Chiin, Hiroto, and others head to the shelter -> Shido leaves the shelter without permission because Kotori's signal is located at a family restaurant -> After Shido leaves, Chiin, confirmed by her classmate Hiroto, also leaves the shelter and claims to be chasing after Shido -> Shido encounters the princess, Welt, and Eren -> The next day, Chinatsu appears, claiming that she and her brother Chiin hid in a safe place during the spacequake and talked to each other, confirming their sibling relationship. Chiin was injured while saving her and is recuperating at home.

• Key point of contention: After Shido left the shelter, he did not stay with Chiin. However, Chinatsu claims that she was with Chiin.

Reine adjusted her glasses, her eyes behind the lenses flashing with a calm, analytical light. She picked up where Kotori left off and began to speak slowly:

"According to Tohka's perception and this timeline... the only point of intersection is the route Shido took when he left the shelter and headed to the family restaurant."

“If what the princess smelled was true, then at that time, Shido must have had a very brief, perhaps even fleeting, contact with Chinatsu, who was ‘radiating the aura of spatial and lightning spiritual power’.”

"This means..."

Reine's voice carried a hint of solemnity, "Back then, Phoenix Inu Chika was already an elf."

This conclusion elicited a collective gasp from the bridge.

Kotori slammed her fist on the control panel, her eyes burning with the fury of being deceived:

"So! The spiritual wave reaction detected during home economics class wasn't some Welt that might have been lurking nearby! It was Chinatsu herself! She's been right next to Shido all along!"

"The so-called 'Walter legacy,' the so-called 'tragic history,' even that 'Walter Yang' who suddenly appeared and disappeared... it was all a play she directed and acted in herself?! Chika is Welt?!"

This speculation is too astonishing. If it is true, then all their previous analysis, their sympathy for Chika, and their shock at Walter's story have become a joke of being fooled!

However, Lingyin shook her head slightly and suggested another possibility. Her voice remained steady as she tried to piece together the chaotic clues:

“...There is another possibility. Chika has demonstrated two completely different power systems—the understanding and construction of 'rationality', and the destruction and domination of 'space and lightning'.”

“If the story of ‘Walter Yang’ and his legacy is true, then what brushed past Shido and left his aura should have been the spatial and lightning power belonging to the core of ‘Judgment’. And what the princess is now sensing and confirming is Chika, who is using this power.”

"Therefore, 'Walter' is most likely a real, independent individual. However, while inheriting the power of the 'Herrscher of Reason,' Chika originally possessed another complete 'Judgment' power. She has two cores and two inheritances."

Lingyin paused, then added a supporting point: "Furthermore, if 'Walter' was actually Chika in disguise, then the princess, with her keen senses, should have pointed it out on the spot when 'Walter' appeared and fought Allen last time, instead of waiting until now to confirm the scent."

"More importantly, if Walter is the Judgement of Heaven, then given the Judgement of Heaven's arrogance, it's more likely that Walter wouldn't be beaten and forced to run around, but would directly destroy AST, Allen, and even the entire Tengu City."

This analysis is relatively mild, retaining some of the authenticity of the "Walter" story, but it also elevates Chinatsu's danger and complexity to a whole new level—an existence with dual powers!

However, whether it was Kotori, Reine, or the other analysts on the bridge, at this moment they all subconsciously ignored or avoided another simple possibility:

In the previous high-speed battle between "Walter" and Alan Mathers, which was dazzling and involved intense energy bursts, Tohka may not have had the time or the ability to clearly distinguish and lock onto the specific spiritual energy aura on "Walter" in that chaotic energy environment.

Preconceived notions, curiosity about Chinatsu's many mysteries, and the shock of being accused by Tohka led their brains to automatically piece together the clues in the most complex and explanatory direction for "Chinatsu's behavior."

Kotori braced her hands on the control panel, her gaze fixed on the screen where Chinatsu was awkwardly trying to comfort Tohka, yet exuding an aura of cold arrogance. She gritted her teeth and said:

"Regardless of which truth it is, it doesn't change one fact—this woman is far more dangerous and complex than we imagined! She possesses powers unknown to us, weaves lies that are difficult for us to discern, and... her influence on Shido is probably far deeper than we anticipated!"

"Immediately adjust all countermeasures against the [Heavenly Judgment] Herrscher! Raise her priority to the highest level! At the same time, closely monitor her interactions with the princess!"

Fraxinus is plunged into unprecedented tension and suspicion due to Chinatsu's reappearance and Tohka's "testimony".

This deduction revolving around "taste" brought their vigilance and investigation of Phoenix Inu Chika to a climax.

Chapter 133 Recruitment Failure and "A Family of Three"

Faced with Tohka, who kept acting cute in her arms, Chika used all her charms, gently patting her back, touching the silly girl's head, rubbing her head, and even smoothing her messy hair that had been rubbing against her.

She tried to soothe Tohka with the gentlest tone possible, which was quite incongruous with her cold and aloof appearance at the moment, but it finally calmed Tohka down a little and stopped her from clinging to her like a koala.

"Cough...cough cough..."

Chika cleared her throat, took the opportunity to create a little distance, quickly adjusted her collar and hair which had been slightly disheveled, and tried her best to regain her expression of being someone who bore a heavy responsibility and was unfathomable.

She took a deep breath and, in a deliberately crafted tone, tinged with seduction and a sense of mission, spoke to Tohka, who had just calmed down:

"Tohka, can you feel it? This world's rejection and hostility towards humans and us elves. Those ASTs who attacked you are just the tip of the iceberg of human tyranny."
