As a traitor, I should raise the banner of rebellion

Ji Ruyun couldn't help but sigh.

[Longyuan] is already a monster that is almost at the top of the inner world, but it is still not as good as the apostles.

Is this His gift?

Thinking of the huge monster sleeping in the heart of the earth, and thinking of what Mizukami Kana said to her, "The Lord doesn't care", even someone as determined as Ji Ruyun couldn't help but reveal an extremely bitter smile.

The reason why human society can continue to exist is not because of the strength of the human race, but because He has no intention of destroying humanity.

Every time I think of this fact, I can't help but feel deep despair...

"Since you are sleeping, sleep longer."

Ji Ruyun couldn't help but say.

The voice was as fragile as glass, and contained a hint of prayer that the person himself was not even aware of.

"At least, please sleep until we have the ability to leave this planet."

"For you, even if it's decades or hundreds of years, it's just a blink of an eye, right?"

After calming down a little, the fragility on Ji Ruyun's face disappeared again, and she turned into the heroic female knight again.

"It seems that the boy is not an apostle."

Recalling what had just happened, Ji Ruyun made this judgment.

Apostles are at the top of all soul binders, but compared to ordinary soul binders, special marks will appear on their bodies when they activate their abilities.

That is the holy mark.

The reason why Ji Ruyun suddenly attacked Yuan Hui was to force him to use his abilities in order to determine the other party's identity.

So far, eleven apostles have appeared on this planet.

As for the last remaining apostle, he is still nowhere to be seen.

Moreover, no one except the apostles and Mizukami Kana knew whether the last apostle was Judas the Betrayer or Saint Matthias who was later replaced by drawing lots.

One thing worth celebrating is that both Judas and Matthias have holy marks on their necks.

Because the former died by hanging himself, while the latter was beheaded after being stoned.

In this case, all you have to do is force the opponent to use his ability, and then observe whether any strange marks appear on his neck.

The reason why people think that Yuanhui might be the last apostle is actually because Celini said that the other party is her sister's boyfriend.

Apostles are attracted to each other.

Even if you have never met before, you will naturally develop a liking for someone who also bears the stigmata.

In other words, the initial favorability between the apostles will be very high.

This seems to be the rule He established when making the stigmata, so that these apostles can love each other.

For this reason, if the apostles are of the same sex, they are almost all good sisters or good brothers. If they are of the opposite sex, the probability of them becoming lovers or even husband and wife is much higher than that of ordinary men and women.

Celia's sister, Sarah Birdroof, is also an apostle.

The probability that the young man who was liked by her, who had very high standards, and became her boyfriend was the last apostle was naturally very high.

It was precisely to confirm this that Ji Ruyun took such a huge risk, tore up her own principles, and brazenly attacked Yuan Hui, just to force him to use his abilities.

The 'Apocalypse Project' was not known to the outside world.

Others are not quite sure what it would mean for the planet if the twelve apostles gathered together.

But it's definitely not a good thing.

"Although the ability to manipulate time is rare, judging from the fact that he is unable to organize [Dragon Abyss], it is clear that he has not yet reached the level of an apostle."

"Also, while using his ability, no marks appeared on the boy's neck."

"That is, he is not an apostle."

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the boy actually saw through her intentions and was deliberately confusing her.

This thought only flashed across Ji Ruyun's mind for a moment, and was then kicked out of her mind.

In any case, she didn't even give him one thousandth of a second to think. Even if she could manipulate time, the time left for him to think would probably be less than a second.

And if he didn't use the stigmata deliberately, the boy would have no way to stop [Long Yuan].

There is great terror between life and death.

This young man was not her, and she didn't know that she didn't actually mean to take his life.

Isn't he afraid of being killed by her?

However, since he was not an apostle, her action just now was totally unreasonable.

This is not in line with her principles in dealing with people.

"Well, it looks like I'll have to find a time to come and apologize."

"I don't know what kind of gift this boy likes."

Looking up at the sky, Ji Ruyun showed an expression of headache.

She has a bit of a choice problem...

123. You have already found a way to die!

Taking her eyes away from Genki, Celini looked back at Kujo Masao who was sitting at the top.

At this time, Kujo Masao had just come back to his senses from the dazzling attack and defense, and happened to meet Cellini's eyes that were flashing with a slightly cold light.

His expression was slightly stern, and he couldn't help but groan inwardly.

The fact that Ji Ruyun would take action against Yuan Hui was beyond everyone's expectation.

Because this was just her own spur-of-the-moment idea.

Obviously, judging whether Yuanhui is an apostle is more important to Ji Ruyun than figuring out the purpose of Celini's visit to Kujo Masao.

There is actually nothing wrong with this decision.

However, for Masao Kujo, this is very bad news.

When Ji Ruyun was around, Kujo Masao could still take advantage of the discord between the two and gain some room for maneuver.

But now that Ji Ruyun is gone, there is no room for maneuver.

This is not because Kujo Masao lacks courage.

It was because the reputation of the 'Apostle' was too great in the other world.

That is truly a reputation built up through piles of bones.

When he was young, Masao Kujo had dealt with Saint Bartholomew, one of the Twelve Apostles.

The opponent's almost unstoppable ability gave Kujo Masao a great shock and became a nightmare that would wake him up even in his sleep.

Since then, Kujo Masao has had a very strong psychological shadow on all the apostles...

However, as a mature adult and the head of the Kujo family, even if he had some fear of Celini in his heart, Kujo Masao was able to successfully hide it.

At least, the girl in front of me couldn't find out...

"Ms. Cellini." As if nothing had happened just now, Kujo Masao smiled with a bit of dignity, "And this one..."

He looked at Yuanhui.

Oh, I hadn’t noticed it before.

If you look at him carefully, he seems somewhat familiar?

"Yuanhui."

Genhui replied, stroking his neck with his fingers, feeling the remaining sharp energy of [Ryūgen].

Yuan...Hui?

Kujo Masao raised his eyebrows slightly.

Could it be that……

But after seeing Cellini, Kujo Masao couldn't help but kill some thoughts in his heart.

The most important thing at the moment is to see what this little ancestor is here to do.

We can only hope it's a blessing and not a curse.

At this time, Celini had already pulled Yuanhui to sit down, and her blue eyes looked at Kujo Masao without blinking.

The gaze was neither examining nor scanning, nor was it sharp enough to penetrate the body, and the emotion was in the neutral zone between hot and cold.

Just watching, without any emotion.

Although she was in the first place, if one really looked at the aura, everyone would probably think that Cellini was the owner of this room.

The Japanese-style room began to be shrouded in unspeakable silence, the air was filled with dust, and had a unique suffocating feeling.

Under the oppressive gaze, the smile on Kujo Masao's face gradually showed signs of collapse.

Big beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

At this moment, the door of the Japanese-style room was suddenly opened.

The sound of the door opening and closing, which was not loud at first, became extremely abrupt under the amplifier of silence.

Celini shifted her gaze from Kujo Masao's face and looked towards the door.

But after seeing clearly who the person was, she was slightly stunned.

The originally extremely intimidating aura disappeared in an instant.

"Rin?" Kujo Masao made a somewhat unbelievable sound and watched his most beloved granddaughter push the door open.

Although Kujo Rin's actions inadvertently saved him, facing the apostles directly was still too dangerous for her who had just become an adult.

"What are you doing here?" Kujo Masao deliberately put on a stern face and shouted, "Can't you see that I'm entertaining guests?"

While speaking, he also winked at Kujo Rin.

If you want to come and play with him, you can do it anytime, except now.

It's too dangerous here!

But Kujo Rin ignored the hints that Kujo Masao tried so hard to give her.

She walked into the most important Japanese-style room of the Kujo family with light steps. This cute and silly young lady shook her head at her grandfather.

"No more acting, Grandpa."

She said in a calm tone, and then Kujo Rin looked at Celini.

"Ms. Cellini, although grandpa is the nominal head of the family, I am the one who makes the real decisions in the Kujo family."

"Grandpa is just a shield I pushed out."

"If there's anything, just talk to me directly."

what are you talking about!

Masao Kujo felt a little confused.

What Kujo Rin said was of course a lie.

She has just come of age this year, how could she possibly have the power to manage family affairs?

But just as Kujo Rin said these words, an inexplicable throbbing came from his soul.

As the head of the Kujo family, Kujo Masao is naturally also a spirit binder.

And at this moment, even though he did not give any orders, the Inugami in his body became inexplicably restless, and even blocked his soul and took over control of this body.

How can this be? !

Kujo Masao was naturally horrified, but no matter how surprised he was in his heart, he couldn't show it on the outside.

"Please step back first, grandpa." Kujo Rin said to Kujo Masao in a commanding tone.

"Yes." Kujo Masao showed a respectful expression and nodded to Kujo Rin.

Then he stood up and left the terrifyingly large Japanese-style room.
