Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

Seeing Mami Tomoe's happy expression, Homura Akemi ultimately decided not to discourage her.

Let her be happy for a while.

At this moment, in Homura Akemi's home, the sleeping girl slowly awakens.

He blinked, looking at the magic circle in front of him, seemingly not quite understanding the situation.

Chapter 959, Section 980: The Arrogant Incubator

"You're awake. Wait a little longer, it'll be ready soon."

Meeting the girl's bewildered gaze, Haruto Soma smiled gently.

He has always been very patient with children.

Of course, those kinds of naughty kids are an exception.

Unruly children are truly a disliked phenomenon by everyone except their own parents.

No one would have a good impression of a bratty kid.

Haruto Misaka is the same.

At first, I was able to patiently explain the pros and cons to the other party, telling them what they could and could not do.

I won't get angry at the bratty kid even if he runs around recklessly and things get more complicated.

As for now, let them be.

Just stay alive.

Consider it a lesson to the naughty kid.

After all, you can't reason with unruly kids.

"Ah."

The girl nestled in the Emperor's arms responded softly.

Although I don't know what happened yet, I don't think it would harm me.

After all, he had nothing left.

The girl thought with a hint of disappointment.

Although it may not seem like a long time has passed for the girl, in fact, several years have passed since she fell into depravity.

I might have already become a missing person by now, right?

I wonder how my parents are doing now.

Will I get scolded if I go back now?

The girl didn't know how to face her parents or how to explain what had happened to her.

I really want to go back, but I also don't want to go back.

Nowadays, girls just want to find a quiet place where no one is around to stay.

I don't communicate with or contact anyone.

"All right."

Withdrawing his hand, Haruto Misaki's magic circle dissipated.

He already had a general understanding of the so-called magical girl situation.

Whether it's the so-called Soul Gem or the Contract.

It's called a contract, but in reality, its effectiveness is very weak.

Or rather, the contract itself did not impose much constraint on the signatory, nor did it leave any loopholes for countermeasures.

More often, it's to use the power of the contract to directly attack the contractor's soul.

After all, once you become a magical girl, if you don't want your Soul Gem to be tainted, you can only hunt witches to obtain Grief Seeds to purify your Soul Gem.

And when this sense of guilt erupts later, it will be well collected by Kyubey.

Therefore, the validity of the contract is not important to the incubator race; it is completely irrelevant.

After all, the contractors are entirely at their disposal.

Those with complicated and difficult minds can be simply ignored.

However, it is precisely because of this that Haruto Misaka has a lot of room to maneuver.

Next, Haruto Misaka prepares to revise the contract and address some of the girl's problems.

Once it's finished, it can be used on a large scale. Luo Zhen must have been waiting for this for a long time.

"How arrogant."

Indeed, Haruto Misaki considers the Incubators to be extremely arrogant.

It was exactly like they were selecting merchandise, choosing children to form contracts with.

The fact that no backdoors or countermeasures were left in the contract is not an oversight or a sign of kindness.

However, he was certain that these naive girls would not pose a threat to him.

Even if there is an occasional exception, it doesn't matter at all.

Anyway, she will soon fall into despair and become a witch.

Then he was hunted down by the magical girl who came later.

It was buried along with the truth she knew.

In fact, things have always turned out exactly as the incubators predicted.

The magical girls were kept in the dark, and no significant resistance organization emerged.

Unfortunately, an outlier emerged in Kewpie's long 'investment' career.

Homura Akemi, who can reverse time, became the only uncertain factor.

Even if we fail this time, it's okay. As long as Homura Akemi hasn't completely broken down, we can keep rewinding time and starting over.

In the end, you will always succeed.

Holding onto this belief, Homura Akemi went through the cycle again and again.

I tried again and again.

As long as you don't give up, the road will keep going (crossed out).

As long as you don't give up, hope will definitely come, and you will definitely succeed.

Homura Akemi, who had persevered, finally saw her hopes fulfilled.

This time, there will be no next cycle.

Looking at the girl curled up in the Emperor's arms, Haruto Soma smiled gently and asked:

Do you remember where you live?

The girl's emotions clearly fluctuated greatly when the word "home" was mentioned.

Looking at the bewildered and slightly panicked girl in front of him, the Holy Emperor reached out and gently patted her back.

The girl's emotions had visibly calmed down considerably.

Seeing this, Tokiwa Sougo mentally gave himself a thumbs up.

As expected of me, the Holy Emperor that I casually brought along when I set off actually played a very important role.

In combat, Tokiwa Sougo possesses overwhelming power.

But when it comes to raising children...

He possesses overwhelming power (lol).

While some Riders are quite good at taking care of children, it's clear that Tokiwa Sougo didn't inherit that skill.

Fortunately, Tokiwa Sogo has a holy emperor.

He was handpicked by the ambitious Tendo Kikunojo as a tool to unite people's hearts.

The Holy Emperor has a unique advantage in terms of affability.

This is evident from her ability to communicate effectively with the group of traumatized, cursed children.

The same applies even in this world.

It's more accurate to say it's easier.

After all, the cursed children have been harmed by humans, and many children have lost trust in humans.

These girls were deceived by alien creatures, and although they were equally wary, they were much better off than the cursed children.

Thinking of this, the Holy Emperor's killing intent suddenly surged again.

As the Tokyo district continued to expand and annex other safe zones, the Holy Emperor also saw many scumbags like Kikunojo Tendo.

Sometimes even the Holy Emperor feels that these scumbags are like cockroaches in a public toilet—no matter how many times you kill them, you can't get rid of them all.

It's decided. When I get back this time, I'll drag out those scumbags who survived and hang them.

As far as the Holy Emperor was concerned, she was very clear about the movements of those scoundrels.

The choice between killing and not killing is just a matter of a single thought.

If the Holy Emperor so desires, those guys will never see the sun rise the next day.

With the support of the Holy Emperor, Tendo Kisara completed his revenge against the Tendo family, and then chose to submit to the Holy Emperor and formed a cleanup squad that belonged only to the Holy Emperor.

It is specifically used to clean up these slag and carcasses.

Seemingly sensing something, the girl in the Holy Emperor's arms raised her head and looked at him with some curiosity.

But all they saw was the Holy Emperor's gentle smile, as warm as the spring sunshine.

Sure enough, I must have been mistaken.

The girl thought so.

Chapter 960, Section 981: Two People Who Chose Different Methods

Seeing the girl's doubts disappear, the Holy Emperor breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Although he was no longer the simple and kind-hearted emperor he once was.

But she didn't want her cruel side to be revealed in front of the children.

That's right, it's cruel.

The Holy Emperor's methods towards those who stood in his way could be described as extremely cruel.

If it weren't for the fact that the number of people in the safe zone has always been small, the Holy Emperor would have been prepared to give those scumbags a nine-generation elimination game.

"Remember......"

After a moment of silence, the girl spoke softly.

"Then shall I take you back later?"

Gently stroking the girl's back, the Holy Emperor spoke softly.

They can't take care of the child forever.

Despite all she has been through, she will eventually return to her home and start her life anew.

Facing one's family, facing everything around them.

In a few years, she may face an enemy no less formidable than Cupid and the witch.

This enemy may require her to fight for a lifetime.

That's life.

Some say the opposite of dream is life.

Who can say for sure about this?
