The addition of the Valkyries quickly reversed the situation. The dragons and giants that fell into the town were quickly killed. After Fangzheng summoned Skaha, the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, the situation changed dramatically.
That was why he had the time to take a look at the girls at home.
"Alright, don't be so listless."
Looking at the listless girls sitting in front of him, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows.
"The other party obviously planned this. It's not your fault."
"But, but, it's my fault …."
However, when Yao heard Fangzheng's comforting words, she said with a sad expression, as if she was about to cry.
"If I hadn't taken back the Golden Harp, this wouldn't have happened, and Leticia wouldn't have been manipulated by the enemy …."
That's right, this was Haruhi Kasuga's responsibility. Although no one present blamed her, she was tormented by the guilt deep in her heart. For Yao, Leticia was a companion, a partner, and a friend in the Community. But now, because of her own mistake, her friend was taken away, and something like this happened …. For Haruhi Kasuga, this was an unbearable pain.
"Alright, don't think too much about it. I don't think you're the problem in this matter. In fact, I can tell you that this' Demon King Game 'was not released by Leticia after she was manipulated by the enemy."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Then, the girls raised their heads and looked at Fangzheng.
"Really? Mr. Fangzheng? "
"It's because of this clause."
At the same time, Cao Qi raised the parchment in her hand.
"… When the Beast Belt disappears, the game will be suspended indefinitely?"
"That's right."
Fangzheng nodded, then looked at the night and lightning outside the window again.
"Let's put it this way. I think this game was probably hosted by Leticia a long time ago as the Demon King. Then, after meeting the first condition, her Demon King Game was suspended indefinitely. It was only because of the Golden Harp that she was reawakened."
However, Fangzheng's answer did not make the girls feel at ease. Instead, it made them even more shocked.
"Is it … organized by Leticia?"
"You must be joking …"
Faced with this unexpected answer, the girls looked at each other. In their memories, Leticia was a very cute, calm, and gentle blonde girl. She always had a peaceful smile on her face as she followed them around. She worked hard for the entire Community, and she also severely reprimanded the disobedient children of the Community.
But now, they would rather believe that Leticia was manipulated by the enemy and forced to hold this' Demon King Game 'against her will.
Because the conditions of the game were too cruel. To put it simply, even if the contestants died, they would not be able to leave the game. If they could not solve the game and win, they would forever linger in the punishment created by several kinds of torture, and this would repeat for eternity.
This wasn't a game at all. It was hell. Compared to this, Black Spot Devil King Pester's game was as gentle as a child's game.
Would that cute and gentle Leticia organize such a cruel game of the devil?
The girls could not understand.
"It's not your fault. Based on the current situation, this game of the devil is probably something that happened hundreds of years ago and has been suspended since then. We've only known Leticia for a month or two, so it's impossible for us to know such a long time ago. But the enemy obviously knows this. We can't help it if the information we didn't realize was used by the enemy. It's just like how you tried to stop something that happened before you were born … But now, this is also an opportunity. "
"Huh?"
Hearing this, the girls looked at Fangzheng again. The latter smiled.
"Although I don't know why Leticia organized this game of the devil, judging from the conditions, she's definitely not just playing around like some people. She must be troubled by this interrupted game, so she should take this opportunity to solve the game itself and help her solve this problem. That way, she can go into battle lightly and move forward into the future … Don't you think so? "
"Yeah!!"
Hearing Fangzheng's answer, the girls nodded vigorously. They had no doubt about Fangzheng's strength. They completely believed that with Fangzheng's strength, he could completely solve any kind of game of the devil. But soon, Yao spoke up again uneasily.
"But … Isn't it written in the rules that we have to kill Leticia? Do we really have to kill her? "
"That's not a problem at all. Just leave it to me. But you guys have to work hard too. Before that, I have something else to do. I'll leave the fleas and giants released by the dragon to you. We've received a commission from the 'Dragon Horned Lion' to protect the town. If you mess it up, there'll be no reward."
"Yes!"
This time, the girls were no longer confused. They answered in unison.
Where was Leticia?
She was currently in the sky above "Underwood", in an abandoned castle.
The golden-haired young lady didn't wear her usual pure white maid attire. Instead, she wore a pitch-black gothic dress that resembled a demon king's. At this moment, her eyes were shut tightly, and her limbs were shackled. She had fallen into a deep sleep on the stone throne.
"I didn't expect such a cute girl to be a demon king."
Standing in front of Leticia, a girl with long black hair and a sleeveless coat said in a low voice. Then, she reached out and tried to touch Leticia's blonde hair that shone under the moonlight.
But at that moment, a somewhat childish voice was heard.
"What's the situation? Lin? "
"Ah! Your Highness! "
Hearing the voice, the girl called Lin hurriedly turned around in fear. Behind her, a boy with golden eyes and white hair in gorgeous clothes was walking towards her. Behind him was a figure covered in a cloak. If Haruhi Abe was here, he would recognize at a glance that the robed man was the one who snatched the Golden Harp from him.
"The game hasn't been paused?"
"Yes, Your Highness. The game is still going on."
Lin quickly reported.
"The other side seems to have summoned very powerful reinforcements. According to the report, they seem to be Valkyries …."
"Looks like it's the work of the leader of the Tendo Temple."
The boy called "Your Highness" frowned.
"I've heard that he summoned the three divine Gorgon Sisters in the battle against 'Perseus'. I didn't expect him to be able to summon Valkyries as well …."
"Who the hell is he …?"
The black-robed man behind the white-haired boy also exclaimed.
"Considering that he hasn't been in the Box Court for long, it's impossible for him to have received so many blessings. Could it be that he had already become a powerful existence before he entered the Box Court? But isn't this too contradictory? "
That's right. Although most humans would be invited to join the Box Court world, there were many other races who had fled to the Box Court world. For example, the giants who were attacking the Underwood, and the vampires that Leticia belonged to. In fact, apart from them, most of the races in the Box Court had also migrated here for various reasons.
But there was a problem. Even if Fangzheng was not human, he could not have so many blessings and skills from different mythological systems. Moreover, the fact that he could summon Valkyries and the three Gorgon Sisters was enough to show that his relationship with them was not simple. But if that was the case, Fangzheng would definitely leave his mark in history.
But no matter how they looked through the records, they could not find a description that matched the existence of Fangzheng.
"Anyway, the other side should have enough confidence in their current situation. We need to put in more effort …."
Having said that, Lin lowered her voice and looked at the youth.
"It doesn't matter if Miss Olga or I are discovered, but if the other side finds out about Your Highness, we'll be in danger. Your Highness, you're our final trump card, and we can't expose you in a game like this. Just in case, I hope you can go to the surface and hide."
"Sigh …."
Hearing Lin's words, the white-haired youth nodded with a troubled look.
"I can understand your point of view. After all, it'll be troublesome if a participant sneaks in here. But I'll leave that to Elder Ge. It's about time you guys meet up with the giants and continue to put pressure on them …. "
But before the white-haired youth could finish, a voice suddenly rang out.
"No, don't even think about going anywhere."
"Who's there!!"
Hearing the voice, Lin and the sorceress named Olga were shocked. They quickly surrounded the white-haired youth and looked around vigilantly. But the next moment, a figure appeared out of thin air at the gate behind them. Everyone's expression changed when they saw him.
"You're …."
"Hehehe, I knew you must have some ulterior motive for attacking my little maid, so I came to check out the situation. It seems like I'm right."
Fangzheng grinned at the people in front of him while twirling the triangular hat in his hand. On the other hand, the woman in the robe let out a low, sharp roar.
"How is that possible? How did you get in here? Why didn't the castle's defense system work at all? "
"The hat of Hades."
Fangzheng didn't say anything. Instead, it was the white-haired youth who stared at the triangular hat in Fangzheng's hand and whispered. Fangzheng raised an eyebrow.
"Not bad. You have a good eye. As expected of the boss behind the scenes. You're really untalented."
"… What do you want?"
"Do you even need to ask?"
Fangzheng glanced at the black-haired girl who asked him that question.
"The price for attacking my cute little maid is, of course, to kill all of you."
"… We're not the organizers of this game."
"I know, but that doesn't conflict with me killing you."
Fangzheng's expression didn't change at all.
"To me, this game is just a problem that I can resolve at any time. But you're different. Although I don't know what you're thinking, since you dared to lay your hands on my adorable little maid, I'm sure you're prepared to die here covered in blood. And I'm sorry …. "
As he spoke, Fangzheng raised his hand. Following his movement, the air behind Fangzheng began to fluctuate.
"As for me, I'm not the type of person who doesn't attack the elderly and children. Strictly speaking, as long as I identify them as my enemies, I can kill them mercilessly, even if they're the elderly and children. After all, sometimes, these two are more annoying than simple villains."
With that said, Fangzheng snapped his fingers.
"Your Highness!!!"
In the next moment, countless treasures flew out with a loud rumble, shooting towards the crowd.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Smoke and dust filled the air. The entire castle exploded under the bombardment of the relics and was completely overturned by the shockwave like a toy.
After a while, the already dilapidated castle was now in ruins. Leticia was still sitting quietly on the broken stone throne, as if she would never wake up.
On the floor of the hall in front of them, the white-haired boy called "Your Highness" was panting as he stretched out his hands. His originally luxurious clothes were now in tatters, while the others had already fallen to the ground.
"You're still stronger than Pester, but that's fine too."
Following Fangzheng's words, a light flashed behind him again. Then, hundreds of relics emerged from it. But unlike before, these relics were now filled with divine power and were ready to go at any time.
As expected … .this was a joke ….
Looking at this scene, the white-haired boy smiled bitterly. He finally understood why Pester's final resistance was so desperate. In the face of such a powerful existence, simply resisting was a form of despair.
"Wait, wait a minute!"
At that moment, Lin suddenly rushed over and stood in front of the white-haired boy.
"Please don't attack His Highness. We can exchange information, we … we have no other choice!!"
"Oh, I knew you would say that."
"… .Huh?"
"This is all a trick."
Fangzheng shrugged as he looked at the dumbfounded black-haired girl.
"Generally speaking, there must be a reason for a child to do evil. Look, for example, domestic violence, coercion, and other such bullsh * t things.
Of course, due to all kinds of bullsh * t reasons, it's normal for a child to become a terrorist or harm society. But … .it's your own choice. "
As Fangzheng spoke, the weapons behind him slowly floated up and aimed at the boy and girl in front of him.
"As for me, to be honest, I can't be considered a good person. In fact, I've probably killed more people than all of you here. I don't care about right or wrong. As long as someone is on my enemy's side, no matter if they're good or bad, good or evil, I'll mercilessly annihilate them. Of course, if someone wants to trouble me because of this, I'll gladly accept it. I won't talk a lot of logic to prove that I'm right. After all, that's my position. I don't care whether others understand me or not. So, I advise you to be prepared. Don't be complacent when you have the upper hand, but cry and act pitiful the moment you realize you can't win. It's a good thing to finish what you started. "
With that said, Fangzheng narrowed his eyes.
"You've made a choice, so you have to bear the consequences. No matter how unfair the consequences may seem to you, you deserve them."
Following Fangzheng's words, the noble phantasm roared again.
