The journey of dragon transformation starting from Demon Slayer

"Ah~ After all, they are members of their own family, so they still need to have the necessary trust... And I think now is also a perfect time for them to practice... whether it is judging the situation on site or other aspects. Now you can fully exercise..."

"And most importantly, I believe them..."

After hearing the words of the little human warrior, the elf and the dwarf looked at each other without refuting. Finn, who was sitting in the main seat, licked his numb thumb and continued to speak.

"In the end, it's useless for us to worry too much now... Those girls (Asteria members) must have taken action one step ahead of us..."

Dwarf Grace laughed when he heard Finn's words.

"Haha, they do have their style,"

Recalling the energetic girls of the "Asteria Familia", the dwarf showed a happy expression on his face.

Finn nodded.

"Yes, so we, as adults, must also set an example..."

"Next, let's discuss first how to deal with this matter if the intelligence is true..."

Finn narrowed his eyes as he recalled the several attacks by the Dark Faction so far.

"This is a 'resistance' that belongs only to us..."

The voice gradually became lower and Finn muttered something.

"For those of us who have experienced the eight-year "dark period", the only consequences we face in the end are "life" or "death". It is nothing more than a choice between the two..."

"The rest depends on how we fight for it..."

Just like that, there is still one day left before the arrival of the "Great Resistance".

--------

Night shrouds the labyrinth city Orario, with the crescent moon hanging high and the stars twinkling. However, what corresponds to it at this moment is a huge city that has fallen into deathly silence.

Unlike the "Center of the World" in the future, Orario is completely dark at this time, and does not look like a city that never sleeps at all.

Due to the chaotic influence of the "Dark Faction Lord", except for some important facilities and areas where magic stone lamps are lit, all lights in other residential areas and ordinary streets have been turned off.

Several black shadows shuttled back and forth on the street, and they met and joined each other from time to time. They were members of the "Loki Familia".

It turned out that after some investigation, they had confirmed the instructions given by the leader of the Familia, "Brave Finn", and were currently heading back to the "Twilight Hall" of the Familia headquarters.

At the same time, the apostles of "Justice" who had completed the investigation on the other side no longer had the cheerful expressions on their faces after confirmation.

Gathered in the conference room of the "Garden of Stars". The girls were scattered around the room in taciturn silence.

Facing the bombs hidden all over Orario, as young girls, they felt helpless for the first time.

Just tonight, they followed Liu's suggestion and went out to investigate, and then secretly arrested several ordinary citizens who were confirmed to possess bombs.

The capture process was very successful. The gap between adventurers and ordinary people in Orario is still very large, especially when explosions are premeditated and are not inevitable.

However, after some farce, they finally had a clear understanding of the current situation.

They encountered some difficulties during the previous arrests, because those arrested were all fanatical believers of the "Evil God", so if the situation went slightly wrong, they would decisively pull the fuse of the detonating device.

Determined, cruel, and not caring about his own life or death. Their appearance of being completely brainwashed by the evil god made them shudder.

Of course, it would be fine if there were only adults, but they even saw scenes of ordinary children holding bombs.

Can you imagine a child of five, six or seven or eight years old holding a bomb and not hesitating to blow himself up?

No matter how much you try to persuade the other party, they will not listen. On the contrary, as long as something goes wrong, it may trigger a violent chain reaction.

If they hadn't been prepared in advance, they really wouldn't have been able to deal with it.

No matter what, they can't let these people detonate the bomb, otherwise the entire Orario may turn into a sea of ​​​​fire in an instant tonight.

But it is precisely because of this that the cruel success of the status quo has plunged everyone into silence.

And then the next second.

"Okay! Cheer up, all of you! Isn't the matter not over yet?"

“How can we, as messengers of ‘justice’, give up so easily here?”

"For us, as long as the bomb hasn't detonated, there is still hope!"

Just as Lyu expected, the first person in this family to cheer up is always "Alyshe Raphael".

As the common sun in their hearts, Alisee is undoubtedly an important existence second only to the goddess Astraea.

She has a kind and cheerful personality, has led them through difficulties countless times, and has become their guiding light.

"It's easy for you to say that... You know, I pulled out a lot of hair because of this incident, bastard..."

"Before I say this, I'm not trying to hit you...but in the face of suicide bombs almost all over Orario. The current situation is simply an unsolvable problem for us."

With a grimace and a cry, the little human Laila continued.

"Don't say you are Level 3, I'm afraid even if the city's strongest 'Freya Familia' and 'Loki Familia' are put in charge, they will only give the same answer..."

He scratched the short pink hair on his head in distress, looked at the "Firestone Self-Explosion Device" placed on the table, and the little human Laila sat helplessly on a high chair and said extremely discouraged words.

"Who makes me an expert in this field... I'm afraid no one knows the power of this thing better than me..."

A low murmur sounded from Laila's mouth, while others were speechless at her words.

It is indeed as Laila said, after all, her previous job was as a thief, like a thief, and she also did gambling and other things to survive. So for this industry, she is currently at Level 2 and can indeed be considered an expert in this industry.

It's just that although it's a bit inconsistent for a person who works in the shadow industry to stay in the family of the goddess of "Justice", she is still considered one of the apostles of "Justice", so she does things that she thinks are just.

In the lower realm, the little humans can be said to be the lowest existence among all races.

They are not as powerful as dwarves. There is no exaggerated magic like the elves. He doesn't have the physical agility of an orc. Even compared to the more mediocre humans, they are unable to surpass themselves in any aspect.

Chapter 491 Laila and Kaguya

As a small human race with very low ability values, they are often unable to make high achievements in all walks of life.

Learn everything and use everything, this is Laila's mantra.

From the characteristics of monsters, to the learning of human nature, from the production of weapons, to survival skills, including the mastery of teammates' psychology and negotiation skills, and the collection of supplies in dungeons. Putting aside other miscellaneous things, it can be said that she has learned several times more than the average adventurer as she grows up.

Although there were life reasons, it was precisely because of this cruel situation that she understood that their little human race had to make use of everything around them to survive.

It is normal for her to use her brain until her ears bleed. It is better to say that she will die if she doesn't use her brain. After all, she is a small human.

In the end, thanks to this, she gained unimaginable "wisdom".

Although to her they were just trivial things accumulated in life, she felt satisfied that she could use this "wisdom" to help others.

However, the problem that suddenly appeared at the moment was the real culprit that put her into a situation where she was at a loss.

With bombs like this all over the city, Orario, where they were, had become so dangerous without even realizing it.

Different from the past small-scale attacks by the "dark faction", they are unable to conduct large-scale investigations now that anyone around them may be a source of danger.

"Tsk - it's really a tricky thing...what do those damn guys think of human life..."

Cursing secretly the "evil god" for his unscrupulous behavior, Laila dismantled the bomb on the table with an angry expression.

Hearing the angry scolding, Gojono Kaguya, who was sitting on the couch, was staring at the smooth stone slab on the ground without saying a word.

Logically speaking, she should say something, but now she couldn't say anything.

As the deputy leader of the "Asteria Familia", she usually plays the calmest staff position among the Familia, and she is also considered to be a relatively experienced person in fighting against people.

At least in terms of experience, she was born in the "Gojo" family from the Far East and experienced countless repression and killings in the first half of her life. From a life experience perspective, her fate was much crueler than that of her companions.

Far to the east, there is a central government called the "Court". From a realistic point of view, it should be regarded as a small country-like clan born around the island. There is a composite sect composed of a main god named Amaterasu and many subsidiary gods.

And her family "Gojo" is also one of the nine major families there.

When it comes to governing, each family has a clear division of labor, and their "Five Articles" are responsible for the duty called "fire extinguishing."

To put it simply, "fire extinguishing" means quickly eradicating all smoke generated by friction that is harmful to stability, both inside and outside the "imperial court". In order to maintain the stability and order of the country.

In other words, they "Gojo" are the guardians of "justice" who travel throughout the Far East.

Of course, that's to put it mildly, but to put it darkly, the job they are responsible for is nothing more than the position of "Anbu".

Assassination, tampering, erasure, and using all means to maintain the stability of the country is their "Five Articles" job.

Against such an environmental background, it can be said that she, who was far away in the East, experienced many things that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

"The few must be sacrificed for the sake of the greater good." This was the value she had been cultivated as a killer in that country for a long time, and she had believed in it.

From the moment he was born, endless killings in his destiny were waiting for him secretly, and he was judged for his fate.

However, after experiencing some setbacks and the country's political struggle, she became disgusted with the so-called "justice" in the words of officials, and finally came to the center of the world, the "Maze City Orario", and joined the family of the Goddess of Justice.

She vaguely remembers that she was depraved and cruel during the period before she transferred to another clan. She was disappointed with "justice" and wanted to die. She also completely abandoned the so-called Yamato Nadeshiko in the far east with every word and deed.

But it was precisely because of this that when she came to Orario, she had a quarrel with Alishe who she met on the way, and met the current main god.

In the end, she was harmed by "Justice" and was saved by the "Justice" of the goddess Astraea.

But now. "The few must be sacrificed for the sake of the greater good." This sentence that accompanied her for the first half of her life and could be called "justice" was something she could not say out loud no matter what.

At this moment, she was overwhelmed by the cruel reality. The huge casualties that could be caused could not be turned into a series of cold numbers in her mouth.

If she could get peace, she might be able to suppress the discomfort in her heart and force herself to speak out. However, the current situation is that these suicide bombers are just the foreplay of a huge drama arranged by the "dark faction" who are hostile to them.

But they are just beautiful words.

Currently, they don't know anything about the strength of the enemy, the composition of high-level combat forces, or the specific plans and arrangements. Just because of the bomb incident, they are already too busy to worry about anything else. In the final analysis, they are not strong enough and cannot save everyone.

"Maybe it's time to make a choice..."

With a low murmur in his mouth, Kaguya squinted her eyes and raised her head to look at the crowd.

"Do you have any ideas? Kaguya..."

Hearing that the deputy captain had something to say, Alishe looked at him with her bright eyes.

At the same time, with everyone watching, Kaguya continued to speak.

"This is a 'choice' for us..."

"Let me say something here first... Since I joined Lady Astraea's family, I am very happy to be able to exercise the right of justice in this city with everyone..."

Facing everyone's gaze, she had a smile on her face, but her eyes were very dull.

"Obviously there are only two ways we can respond to this situation..."

"One result is to abandon those crazy people who turned into fanatic believers, selectively ignore their deaths and injuries, and then ensure the greatest possible strength to face the possible "dark faction" that will happen next. ’’s attack, and closing the mess..."

"Focus on those who want to survive. This is my advice..."

Hearing Kaguya say this, everyone present showed a depressed expression.

"Right now, it's impossible for us to effectively investigate every place in Orario. It's extremely difficult to even investigate the base of the 'Dark Faction'. We simply can't find out the dangerous bombs hidden in the hands of the people..."

Chapter 492 Kaguya’s reversal

"Although we can indeed avoid some problems by being careful, if we don't do it right, we will trigger a violent chain reaction. We may even accidentally become the fuse of the entire battlefield and become the sinner who leads Orario into the sea of ​​​​fire. "

Although the words were a bit sharp, the answer from Kaguya's mouth was also an unsolvable reality.

They are so powerless now, so weak.

Not realizing that the elf didn't immediately jump out to refute her twisted "justice", Kaguya opened her narrowed eyes slightly and continued to speak with a solemn look.

"Although our noble elf lady has investigated the suicide bomb, the current situation is so cruel."

"It's not whether we do it or not, but we won't get much reward even if we do it..."

"After all, the 'dark faction' is still hiding in the secret, ready to appreciate our ugliness and laugh at us..."

"Well, it's impossible to refute... What about the second one? Kaguya."

At this time, the older group Niz Runkot, who was leaning against the wall with her arms folded, spoke. She has beautiful long flaxen hair and is a werewolf from the orc race.

The silver pointed ears tremble from time to time on the top of the head, and the silver wolf tail hangs down from the waist. With brown skin and a figure of 170 Sel feet, she can be said to be the "eldest sister" in the family.

Hearing Niz's question, Kaguya sighed.

"The second option is, of course, to fight to the death with the 'dark faction' in our past style..."
