Tokyo: My Super Powers are updated every week

Chapter 829 Just because you are lying down doesn’t mean I can’t step on you

The guards who arrived at the scene were defeated, and it cannot be said that they gained nothing. At least the spectators and relevant staff who participated in the arena were arrested and sent to the guard station.

The audience only needs to pay a fine to end it, but the staff will need to spend several years in jail.

The laws of the Kingdom of Mirante are quite strict in this regard.

The leading masked man has disappeared and will be hunted down by the Kingdom Knights.

Dio and Griffith thought that the other party did not want their lives, but simply wanted their blood. What was the purpose?
After some speculation, the two thought that they might want to control their bodies.

Everyone knows that those who graduate from Mirante Noble Academy with perfect scores will most likely join the Knights of the Kingdom.

It was a knighthood that belonged directly to the king. If you join it, you have a very high chance of meeting big figures like the king and the duke.

If the enemy had that kind of consideration, the two of them had already made a plan, that is, after graduation, they would not choose to join the Kingdom Knights, but would choose to go to the border troops.

As long as their status is low enough, no one can use them to cause damage to the royal family or the Kingdom of Mirante.

Although Dior is not willing to be ordinary, he is even more unwilling to be manipulated by others.

Dio looked at the blue sky and spit out the grass in his mouth. He stopped taking a lunch break and got up and headed to the town.

Dio was surprised.

The mountains are continuous, with peaks and peaks, and dense vegetation. There are many animals in the mountains.

There was a subordinate running towards him in a hurry. He was about thirty years old, wearing very light armor, with two pieces on the front and back.

……

"Dani, why are you in such a hurry?"

The residents of the town can enjoy the Wendham treatment of having meat in every meal just by hunting. However, in a place like this, it is not easy to get a bite of vegetables and fruits.

But for a border town like this, this kind of defense is pretty good.

Quite a number of people.

Dior took a quick look and saw that the circus was quite large, with dozens of people, and elephants, lions, and bears used for performances in iron cages.

Apart from the functions that all cities have, in terms of natural scenery, Windham cannot compare to the town of Novia.

A high-end entertainment like the circus should not appear in Novia Town.

"what!"

Almost everyone in the town gathered here to watch.

The enemy is not stupid either. Slashing directly on the leg or neck is far better than stabbing the armor head-on.

Dio leaned under the tree and stretched greatly. It had been three years since he graduated from the Mirante Noble Academy.

During the past three years, he has been serving as the squad leader of the border guard force.

Although this description may be exaggerated, it also shows how dangerous the terrain of Orion Peak is.

In the blink of an eye, the four seasons change.

They are stationed here to manage the security of the town's residents and avoid fights, thefts, murders and other incidents.

It is very close to the place under Griffith's jurisdiction, and the two men have ten subordinates in total.

But do we really want to stay ordinary like this?

Dani stopped and said with excitement: "Captain Dio, a circus has come to our town. They said they will start performing here tomorrow night, and they also discussed renting the open space at the entrance of the town.

After all, the town of Novia and the Kingdom of Iselia are separated by the Orion Peaks, and the rugged mountain roads are difficult for the army to pass.

He saw circus members unloading their luggage at the entrance of the town.

For a guy who can't even control his own life, no matter how much power he has, it's all false, like floating clouds in the sky that will disperse when the wind blows.

Dio felt vaguely unwilling to accept it, and even had the idea of ​​defecting to a neighboring country.

Come and have a look. "

Instead of becoming a powerful person under the control of others, he would rather voluntarily let himself become an ordinary person.

The enemy really wants to attack Mirante from here. With a million-strong army, after passing the Orion Peak, there are probably only a few thousand people left.

Dio asked casually.

Novia, a small town on the border of the Kingdom of Mirante.

The garrison area under its jurisdiction is the town of Novia with a population of no more than two hundred.

If you want to use the circus as a cover to engage in smuggling, you can't take this route.

"circus?"

If a battle really breaks out, such armor will not have any protective effect.

However, there is still no clue about the Noble Phantasm user in the arena, as if he evaporated out of thin air from the Kingdom of Mirante.

Dio and Dani return to town together.

The town of Novia is a remote rural area, visited only by traders collecting animal skins throughout the year.

With such a mediocre life, he didn't notice anything strange in the past three years.

The leader of the circus is a man with a round figure and cheeks. He wears a tall hat and a clown costume and looks very kind.

"You must be the captain stationed in Novia Town. My name is Kaio. I am very happy to be able to perform in Novia Town.

Here are two tickets, I hope you and your partner can come along and watch tomorrow night's show. "

Dio accepted the ticket, he had no partner.

Although there were many women in the town who made secret glances at him, their looks were too low.

Dior doesn't like it at all. He decided to ask Griffith from next door to come over and watch the circus show with him.

"Novia is a small town. I wonder why the band leader wants to perform here?"

"Haha, the captain is not the first person to ask me this. I don't run a circus to make money, but to spread happiness to others.

My dream is to travel to every place in the Eastern Continent and spread happiness~"

Kaio was smiling all over his face, and his round cheeks looked a little sacred at this moment.

When Dio saw him saying this, he didn't say anything else.

Aside from this reason, he couldn't imagine what benefits he could gain from performing in this border town.

All I can say is that everyone has their own ambitions.

……

The next day, evening.

Night shrouded the sky over the town of Novia, and the stars were so bright that the moon's brilliance became somewhat dim.

The circus has already set up relevant venues and stages.

Not only the town of Novia, but also the people in the next town were alarmed by the circus, and almost everyone came to watch it.

Tickets for Keao Circus are not very expensive, costing less than ten copper coins.

In the Kingdom of Mirante, even a family in a border town like this can afford such a price with gritted teeth.

It is difficult for Novia Town to encounter this kind of door-to-door circus performance, and it may only be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Most of the villagers didn't want to miss it.

In the big tent set up by the circus, the lights were flickering. On the seats, Dio and Griffith sat in the front row on the east side.

In front of them is a simple fence, which is the venue used by the circus for performances.

"Hasn't the show started yet?" "I'm really looking forward to what kind of show there will be." "I heard that someone can breathe fire." "I'd rather see the lion they say get into a ring of fire."

The audience interacts with each other.

Griffith enjoys this atmosphere very much. He is not attached to any power or status, and has no objections to ordinary life.

At this time, as the bell rang, a blond man wearing a black dress and a high hat walked out from behind the curtain.

“Everyone is welcome to watch the performance of Keo Circus.”

He took off his tall hat and bowed to the people present, and then snow-white doves flew out from the hat.

"Oh!"

The children and parents present were amazed.

The blond man put the hat back on his head and said with a smile: "Please watch, next, I will perform a transformation into a living person!"

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and another man dressed as a clown jumped up and handed a huge paintbrush into his hands.

The blond man hummed a song, took funny and funny steps, drew a pentagram in the open space with a paintbrush, and drew a circle outside the pentagram, and then added some strange symbols.

Even Griffith and Dio didn't understand this pattern, let alone the residents present. They just stared at the ground with curious eyes.

The blond man drew the last stroke on the ground, then said with a smile: "The next step is the moment to witness the miracle. Please don't blink or be afraid."

After saying this, he took out a short knife and wiped it on his palm, and then a large amount of blood dripped on the ground.

The terrifying amount of bleeding made Dio and Griffith's first reaction be that it was fake. How could a person bleed so much after cutting his palm?

But after the blood fell on the ground, the magic performer's body became dry at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a mummy.

"Ah! What's going on with this guy?" "It's so scary!" "It must be a lie."

The blood shed by the man was absorbed by the magic circle on the ground. The originally colorless magic circle emitted a strange red light.

Dio and Griffith showed a hint of uneasiness in their hearts. Is this true?

The two looked at each other, unsure of what exactly happened.

After all, books have explanations about magic circles, but only the magic circles drawn by the apostles have power.

When a normal person draws a magic circle, it is only a tangible picture.

Was that person just now an apostle?

A bloody light flashed on the ground, and an old friend familiar to both of them appeared there.

After not seeing each other for several years, the other party was still dressed as before, with his whole body covered in a black cloak and a bronze mask on his face.

"Long time no see, Dio, Griffith."

Ta Si greeted the two of them in a familiar tone, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

He had been planning for many years, finally gathering the materials the Terror Emperor needed to construct the magic circle, and waited for the right time.

"Tonight, in this blood moon moment that is rare in hundreds of years, it is time for you to awaken."

"Everyone, run!"

Griffith shouted, pulling out the sword from his waist.

This guy... Dio also drew his sword after a brief hesitation, not because he wanted to protect these townspeople, but because he knew that the other party had been planning for many years and would never let him leave easily.

If you are facing death on both sides, you might as well give it a try.

The two of them rushed through the fence like cheetahs, trying to fight Tasi at close range.

Ta Si smiled, raised his hands high, and the ground suddenly released a burst of bloody light!
