Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

"Want to know?"

Nene Saikyo narrowed her eyes, her bright eyes forming beautiful slits.

"Too bad, I'm not planning on telling you."

Actually, the reason is quite simple.

Tene Miyakonoe's ability is the Goddess's Excessive Grace; the world will develop according to what he desires in his heart.

This ability to influence fate will have effects on everyone to varying degrees.

However, in this world, there are still people who can completely escape from the bounds of fate.

These are, the Majin!

Blade Bringers who break taboos, transcend humanity, and completely become non-human species: Majin.

Generally speaking, the size of the fate bestowed by the planet itself is also a kind of protection for ordinary Blade Bringers.

It's like a shackle, like the Steins Gate of destiny.

This is also the reason why everyone's magical power is a fixed amount.

However, Blade Bringers can break through this gate. Once they do, they shatter their own taboos.

And by breaking through this protection, escaping from this protection, the fate of a Majin becomes unpredictable; what they will become and what will happen in the future are all unknown.

She, Nene Saikyo, is a Majin who has escaped from the bounds of fate.

How can someone who is no longer within fate be affected by Tene Miyakonoe's ability?

"Alright, work's done, let's go home."

Chapter 109: Perhaps Stronger Than Me

The work was easy and didn't require much effort for Tene Miyakonoe, not even qualifying as work for Nene Saikyo.

"All captured. Next, we hand them over to the higher-ups for interrogation."

Kuroe Shinguuji also landed near Nene Saikyo, then skillfully took out two pairs of handcuffs from her pocket and put them on Tene Miyakonoe and Sara's hands.

These handcuffs are specially designed to restrain Blade Bringers.

After all, ordinary handcuffs are useless against Blade Bringers' powers and abilities; they would break with a light tug.

Only these handcuffs can completely seal a Blade Bringer's abilities and superhuman physical strength.

"However."

Kuroe Shinguuji slowly turned her gaze back to the school district behind her and sighed softly.

"With the damage this extensive and school about to start, I'll have to repair it overnight."

Returning things to their state before a certain point.

Kuroe Shinguuji can do such things, but restoring so much will be a big problem for her.

"Right, we also need to find that Kirihara Ouma."

"He's a very important piece of evidence."

Kuroe Shinguuji said this, her eyes falling on Nene Saikyo, smiling slightly.

Nene Saikyo's lips twitched twice, and her shoulders slumped.

"You're kidding, I have to look for him again?"

"Of course. According to Makoto Haramura, he did give Kirihara Ouma a heavy blow, but considering his body's speed and recovery rate, it'll only take an hour or two at most."

"I have to handle the follow-up matters here. Are you saying you'll take care of these things for me instead?"

Kuroe Shinguuji looked at her with a fake smile.

"Geez, I know, I kno…"

Suddenly, Nene Saikyo closed her mouth.

As if pulled by something, her head turned to look in a certain direction, her eyes suddenly filled with shock.

"This aura, could it be?"

Nene Saikyo wasn't the only one making such a move; Kuroe Shinguuji next to her was doing something similar.

In the direction they were looking, a terrifying sword aura was rising continuously, making them shudder.

"It's probably her."

"This time, we're in trouble."

Kuroe Shinguuji murmured.

Nene Saikyo's expression was also very unpleasant.

"If you release them all, I won't make trouble for you."

Such a voice suddenly rang out without any warning, entering the ears of everyone present.

It was a beautiful and exquisite voice, like singing.

The owner of the voice silently appeared in the center of the battlefield, standing in the highest position, looking down.

A pure white radiance shone on her body.

That radiance came from both the armor she wore and her hair, as white as the Milky Way.

Everyone present focused their gaze on the woman.

She looked very young, about twenty years old, wearing armor like a Norse Valkyrie. Her slender hands each held a sword, gently hanging down, letting her waist-length, straight white hair flutter in the air, like a saint or a goddess.

This female swordsman had perfectly proportioned features, beautiful enough to take one's breath away.

Now, that pair of gray-black eyes looked down at everyone present, her eyes containing the light of wisdom, as if she could see through everything. Her slender limbs were completely relaxed, and her demeanor was very natural, yet she seemed ready to respond to any changes at any time.

And at her feet was the heavily injured Kirihara Ouma, whom Nene Saikyo and Kuroe Shinguuji were trying to find.

"As expected, it's you, Hiyoku, Edelweiss."

Kuroe Shinguuji and Nene Saikyo's expressions were unusually solemn.

Once opposed to both the 'Alliance' and the 'Union,' she single-handedly annihilated an army of 300,000 men.

The woman before them was the one known as the 'Hiyoku,' the world's strongest swordsman, and also known as the world's most evil criminal.

"So, this government plot is also related to the Rebel Army?"

Even as she said this, Nene Saikyo felt her back was soaked with sweat.

Now, everything could be connected.

The teacher of Akatsuki Academy, or rather, the unappointed principal, is Wallenstein, the Twelve Apostles of the 'Rebel Army,' the One-Armed Sword Saint.

Now, the one who came to rescue them is the world's most vicious criminal, 'Hiyoku'.

After all, 'Hiyoku' has many connections with the Rebel Army. There's no way around it; Edelweiss has offended both the 'Alliance' and the 'Union' too thoroughly.

Having offended two of the world's three major powers, Edelweiss had to choose the last power to rely on, no matter how unwilling she was.

So, it's right to guess that Edelweiss is involved with the 'Rebel Army'.

In addition, Edelweiss has indeed done several things for the 'Rebel Army'.

"It's still just a trade as always."

"But this is the last time. I won't interfere after this."

"Can the 'World Clock' and 'Yasha Princess' just coexist peacefully?"

Her tone was still otherworldly, as Edelweiss slowly opened her mouth.

Kuroe Shinguuji was in a state of decision.

This was not a difficult multiple-choice question for her.

In fact, she only ever had one option.

That was to honestly listen to Edelweiss's words, because she had no strength to resist Edelweiss.

Not only her, but Nene Saikyo next to her was the same.

The gap between them and Edelweiss was the gap between heaven and earth, even if Nene Saikyo, like Edelweiss, was a Majin who had transcended fate and broken through its obstacles.

Nene Saikyo smiled wryly, still putting on a frivolous face, but the iron fan in her hands never loosened.

"It seems I have no choice but to make this choice."

Kuroe Shinguuji reluctantly took a step back, also pulling Nene Saikyo back a step.

"Please, go ahead."

"We admit defeat today."

This was unavoidable; there was no way to avoid it.

They could indeed start a war with Edelweiss, but what would be the consequences of the war?

Their defeat would be a small matter, but the campus behind them would only be destroyed even more severely.

"So that's the world's strongest?"

As if speaking to Stella, Makoto Haramura stared blankly at the pure white female swordsman and muttered.

This was the first time he had faced the world's strongest so directly.

Personally, using his own body to feel the sword pressure of the world's strongest swordsman.

"I really want to fight her."

Responding to Makoto Haramura was Kirihara Ikki, who was staring at Edelweiss with the same gaze as Makoto Haramura.

There was no fear or timidity in this gaze.

Only the excitement of a swordsman encountering a strong enemy, able to exchange blows and discuss the Dao, and hone his own sword path.

"But we're not qualified yet."

That fairy-like figure gradually faded away, and Makoto Haramura's pupils slowly narrowed.

"We will be qualified next time we meet."

"We must challenge her then."

...

"Alright, you guys go back."

After leaving Hagun Academy by about seven or eight kilometers, Edelweiss separated from the students of Akatsuki Academy.

None of the others dared to talk to Edelweiss.

The only ones who dared to talk to Edelweiss were Kirihara Ouma and the One-Armed Sword Saint, Wallenstein.

But the problem was that both of them were in a comatose state. Who would dare to talk to Edelweiss, especially since Edelweiss was exuding an aura that forbade strangers from approaching.

Hiraga Reisen and Kazamatsuri Rina immediately left with their teammates and teachers.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk—"

Just after Akatsuki Academy left, a hoarse and aged voice suddenly came.

An old man with neatly combed white hair walked out, leaning on a cane, with a frivolous and flirtatious look on his face.

"Long time no see, Nango-sensei."

Edelweiss didn't seem surprised, turning her gaze to the old man and bowing slightly.

"As expected, my feeling from the beginning was correct. You have been watching the melee just now."

"Hahaha, after all, they are this old man's closed disciple, and this old man's most beloved senior and second disciples."

"If this old man wasn't here, that's another matter, but since I'm already here, how could I leave without providing protection for my adorable disciples?"

Nango Hikojiro touched his bald head, revealing a kind smile.

In fact, no one notified him that he was coming to Hagun Academy today.
