Section 353

If it weren't for the situation, Athena would want to grab Haramura Sincerity by the neck and ask him what kind of delusion allowed him to see a happy expression on her face at that time?

That was clearly a gritting, murderous expression, okay?

"Continue the transaction?"

"You may."

"It's not easy for me to still have something you value."

Since things have already come to this, Athena doesn't hold back her sarcasm, directing it straight at Haramura Sincerity.

"Of course, Goddess, the value you possess is still substantial."

"Please don't underestimate yourself."

Haramura Sincerity acted as if he couldn't hear the sarcasm, continuing to speak.

"Crack—!"

The tiles under Athena's feet were instantly crushed into powder.

"What do you want to trade?"

"There's no need to rush about what to trade. We can discuss it when we meet next time."

"Don't worry, it definitely won't be anything too difficult for you."

"Is that so?"

"My premonition is telling me that you are thinking about things you shouldn't be thinking about."

The Goddess of Wisdom let out an annoyed complaint.

If possible, she wished she couldn't hear these words from Haramura Sincerity, but unfortunately, she still couldn't give up these things.

So even though she was already furious, she had to listen and try.

"That's fine, then let's wait until the next time we meet."

"I think that day shouldn't be too far away."

Athena replied in an icy tone.

"Oh? Hearing you say that, Goddess, it seems you're almost ready?"

Rustling sounds rang out again from the grass, from the corners, from everywhere.

Black snakes surged towards Athena like a sudden tide, and in the very center of that swarm of snakes, supported by dozens of snakes, was a red cross.

Athena's mood suddenly improved at the sight of that red cross.

"The most important thing has already been obtained by me."

Chapter 295: Everything is Up to Fate

Still at the headquarters of the Bronze Black Cross, still the same scene as before.

Haramura Sincerity sat in the chair, while the people below looked as if their brains couldn't process what they were hearing.

No kidding.

They really couldn't believe what they were hearing.

The Demon King on the ground was having a friendly exchange with a Heretic God?

What kind of international joke was this?

Shouldn't these two beings fight to the death upon meeting?

"I'm different from other Campiones."

Supporting his left cheek with one hand, Haramura Sincerity yawned and spoke unhurriedly.

The three people below listened intently, afraid of missing even the smallest detail.

"Under realistic conditions, I still don't want to see what happened in Milan again."

"So now I can tell you very clearly that in the next few days, a Heretic God will descend in Naples."

"And I will hunt it down."

"When I take action, I will try to control the scale as much as possible, but what exactly happens depends on you."

Haramura Sincerity kept sliding his fingertip across the rough texture of the jade pendant, as if playing with prayer beads.

Naturally, Old Granichal showed a bitter smile on his face.

But in the next second, Old Granichal immediately nodded heavily.

"Understood, King."

"Next, I will fully mobilize the power of the Bronze Black Cross to evacuate the people of Naples as much as possible."

How could he not be bitter?

This time, Milan had already caused them heavy losses, and Naples was also an important economic point for them.

Yes, this time was slightly better than last time.

At least the people could be evacuated in advance, but the damaged buildings would need to be rebuilt with real money afterward.

"Mm."

"Next, arrange a trip to Rome for me."

"It's my first time in this city, so I should always take a look around."

Haramura Sincerity stood up directly, stretched, and the joints connected to his body made crisp sounds.

"Yes, King."

"Next, Liliana will bring you the most perfect trip to Rome."

"However, before that, we have another matter to explain to you."

Diana maintained her kneeling position, burying her head deeply in her upright chest, and spoke for the first time.

"Mm, speak."

Haramura Sincerity took a step, stopped beside Diana, and said indifferently.

In some ways, he was a qualified superior.

Superiors can have compassion and benevolence.

But they must never have too good of an attitude towards their subordinates.

They must make their subordinates fear and dread them at all times, so that they will not lose themselves.

Otherwise, humans are very strange creatures. When you are more tolerant towards them, they will become more presumptuous.

"You may not know."

"Before you descended upon this land, there was already a King ruling here."

"Although this King is usually not very interested in such things."

"But if he knew that a member of his own kind was seizing his territory, it is estimated that the King would be very happy to have this excuse to directly launch a challenge to you."

It could be seen that Diana was very uneasy when she said this.

This could be seen from her dodging eyes and slightly trembling body.

"So, what are you trying to express to me?"

Haramura Sincerity's indifferent tone made Diana's body shake even more.

"Do you think I would be afraid of his challenge, or are you trying to express something else?"

"No, that's not it."

With several crisp sounds in a row, Diana kowtowed directly to the ground, and blood flowed down her broken scalp.

"We just wanted to inform the King of this matter."

"There is absolutely no other meaning."

The room instantly fell into a deathly silence, and the only sounds that could be heard were the crisp sounds of men's and women's heels tapping on the marble floor.

After a long while, the sound rang out again.

"The idea of reporting in advance is not bad. As a reward, it doesn't matter if you can guide that Sword King to Naples and start a war with me."

"But, that's all there is to it."

Haramura Sincerity's voice ended, and the sound of heels tapping on the ground rang out again.

"Liliana, keep up."

Edelweiss paused for a moment and turned back to call Liliana.

"Ah, yes."

Liliana, who was still in a daze over the King's impermanence, quickly woke up and hurriedly followed.

The five-person room returned to its original state of only two people.

But after knowing that the sound of footsteps had completely disappeared, Diana raised her head, which was already covered in blood, from the ground.

"Thank you for your hard work, Diana."

Old Granichal conjured a handkerchief from his hand like a magic trick and handed it to Diana, saying softly.

"It's nothing to be thankful for, someone always has to take on this responsibility."

"It's no problem for me either."

Wiping the blood that was still flowing from her forehead, and activating healing magic at the same time, Diana rubbed her somewhat red knees and stood up.

"But from the results, it seems not bad, right?"

The healing magic was very effective. The forehead that was still bleeding just now had now been restored to its original state.

"It is indeed a very good result."

"From this point of view, this King is not a particularly generous person, but he can be considered a King who can listen to advice."

"That's already very good."

Yes, how could Diana be such a reckless person, asking such a question directly without understanding Haramura Sincerity's personality?

Was she really tired of living? How could that be?

She asked this question purely to test Haramura Sincerity's attitude.

Whether he purely regarded them as consumables, as pigs and dogs, as slaves, or regarded them as human beings, allowing them to maintain their own interests where possible.

Now, from the results, this King allows it.

Of course, she also took a great risk to say this.

She had also thought that she might be beheaded because of this sentence.

However, just like she said, such a test would start sooner or later, and someone would have to sacrifice sooner or later.

Even if she was the strongest magician of the Bronze Black Cross, it was not impossible.

"Yes."

"Go all out in the next few days. Is it still impossible to contact the Sword King?"

Old Granichal nodded heavily, and then asked Diana.

"Unable to contact. Find a way to find Andrei."

"No matter what, the Sword King must be guided to Naples within the time limit."

"Leave this matter to me."
