Chapter 348 I will be leaving in a few days anyway

The Self-Defense Forces seemed to have forgotten how to fight a war with humans. They had an absolute advantage in equipment, logistics, and numbers, but they were beaten to the point where they fled in panic without their armor.

The battle damage ratio was horrific.

They didn't know how many casualties the Cursed Sons suffered. Anyway, they suffered heavy casualties, and countless damaged and discarded equipment.

Several days passed after that.

The brutal street fighting showed them a real mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood.

Gastrea Wars?

There would be no mountains of corpses or seas of blood, and corpses would rarely be seen, because the corpses were either melted or eaten.

Seeing the body and not seeing the body are completely different feelings.

A few days isn't enough time to numb them.

Only victory can inspire fighting spirit, and only victory can maintain morale.

After a series of battlefield defeats, a series of heavy casualties, and not even a few corpses of the Cursed Children, the morale of the Self-Defense Forces quickly took a sharp turn.

Some people began to doubt whether this war was necessary.

……

If you want the Holy Emperor to say it, of course it is not necessary.

But she had no control over this aspect, so she had learned not to express her opinions, and she didn't even spend much time in the headquarters.

As the top leader of the Tokyo region, she actually has a lot to do.

The top management told her that this was what she should do and must do.

For example, giving a speech on TV, visiting the grassroots people and soldiers, meeting visiting foreign guests, etc.

This cannot be said to be unnecessary, it can only be said that it is not necessary.

The former Holy Emperor felt that he should do it.

But now she wakes up: this is just a way to prevent her from truly having access to power to make decisions.

In the past, she didn't even know anything about the outside world, because no one told her unless it was something she really needed to know.

But with the reorganization of the convoy, this situation has changed.

Under Tendo Mugen's tough tactics of "if you don't cooperate, you will die", she managed the entire escort team to be submissive.

Of course, those who died were the personnel installed by each faction.

When Satomi Rentaro came to see her before, what he saw was the scene where she drew her sword out of its sheath and killed several members of the escort on the spot. She suddenly felt that the whole world collapsed.

Aihara Enju parted ways with him, and Tendo Kisara no longer cared about human life.

Even the Holy Emperor didn't express his opinion, and seemed to think that it was not wrong to do so.

Feeling that the world had become gray, Satomi Rentaro turned around and left in despair again. No one has seen him since then, and he probably has...

It’s hard to say whether he’s dead or not.

Don't worry about it anyway.

The escort team, which has been reorganized and added more than 20 female members, has truly become an armed force that the Holy Emperor can fully control.

Tendo Mugen only wants revenge and will not compete with her for power.

Umi Aya, even less so, because in a few days she will leave this world and return to Academy City.

So the Holy Emperor once again saw the dawn of hope.

With the help of the escort, her sources of information are no longer blocked and she is able to learn more about what is going on outside.

The top management didn't pay much attention to the changes in the Guards at first.

But slowly I realized something was wrong.

Members of the same faction immediately contacted Tendo Kikunochori who was still visiting other areas.

What exactly was said no one knows.

Anyway, two days later, Sheng Tianzi, who had just finished his day's journey and was about to return to his residence, was assassinated.

There were many enemies and fierce firepower. They were caught off guard and many of the escorts died in the line of duty.There is no problem with the female team members. After all, they are dolls and are not that easy to break.

In the end, it was thanks to these female team members that the counterattack was successful.

As soon as the shocked Shengtianzi returned to the headquarters, the top management immediately began to attack, accusing Tendou Kisara, the new guard captain, of "dereliction of duty" and so on.

Then proposed changing the guard captain and recruiting new guard members.

Although the Holy Emperor has changed, he has not changed completely. The first thing that comes to mind is to compromise to keep Tendo Kidara.

At the critical moment, Tendou Kisara and Gaosai Uimi rushed to the scene and accused the intelligence department of being a bunch of idiots for letting so many armed men in.

Those armed men were indeed from outside, people from other regions who wanted to assassinate the Holy Emperor.

These high-level officials probably received relevant intelligence, but they did not stop it. Instead, they sat back and watched the incident happen, and also tried to use the attack to eliminate dissidents.

Fortunately, Umi Aya and Takato Tendou (Byakuya) gave warnings and ran over in time to prevent the incident from getting worse.

Not only to stop, but to fight back.

We should take this opportunity to seize control of the intelligence department.

Not only the intelligence services, but also departments or agencies such as customs.

Even if they can't get them all back, they still have to put their own personnel inside.

Sheng Tianzi's previous thinking was correct, but there was something wrong with his specific thinking. Now he is on the right path.

In addition to seizing power, they also want to make things worse.

We want to make the assassination of the Holy Emperor known to everyone, and also say that the enemy is inside, even in the headquarters, among these high-level officials.

In this regard, the main focus is to kill first and then tell later. The two girls have already arranged for people to release the information.

Only when things get serious can we fish in troubled waters.

There is also another purpose: to support the Children of the Damned in their war against oppression.

……

Sheng Tianzi is the supreme ruler of the Tokyo area no matter what. Although the higher-ups regard her as a mascot, her prestige is very high in the hearts of the people at the bottom, as long as the topic of harmonious coexistence with the Cursed Child is not mentioned.

Under the deliberate guidance of some people over the years, this concept will not be easily reversed.

The top management asked Sheng Tianzi to do things to comfort the people at the bottom and the soldiers all day long. In a way, it really helped her and allowed her to get the sincere support of the bottom.

When news came that the Holy Emperor had been assassinated, and that the enemy was probably someone or even a few people in the top management, the Self-Defense Forces, whose morale was already low, became even more reluctant to attack.

At first only some people retreated.

Those who were unwilling to retreat had no choice but to retreat from the battlefield together because they lost the cover of friendly forces.

So everyone withdrew from the fighting area, clamoring to go back to defend the Holy Emperor and kill the enemies within.

The officers of the Self-Defense Forces tried their best to calm them down temporarily.

The children on the resistance side breathed a sigh of relief.

The Self-Defense Forces relied on their large numbers to carry out continuous attacks in turns. Although they could withstand it, they did not get a good rest.

Now that the Self-Defense Forces have no intention of attacking, they can seize the time to rest and adjust.

Enju Aihara, who has been living and eating in the headquarters these days, Natsuki Chiju who often goes to the battlefield, and Tina, who basically stays on the battlefield, also all retreated to rest.

The first thing is to run over to Bai Ye and pull him into his room.

"Put some hot water on us, Brother Baiye, we want to take a bath and relax."

Taking a bath is one thing, relaxing is another.

This time the three of them got down (...) and took Tina with them.

Although Tina couldn't figure out the situation.

It quickly became dumbfounded.

Finally joined in.
