"Right."

Yuan Cunchun Cheng directly completed Lilliana's sentence.

Yes, summoning a Heretic God is very taxing on a Maiden.

Like Lilliana's experience as a child, about eighty out of a hundred Maidens died.

But how many Maidens are there in the world?

If there were as many of these things as nurses, then with a Godslayer's personality, this ritual would be held more often than every four years.

In other words, this old wolf needs to gather enough of them in Japan.

"It doesn't matter, don't worry about him."

Chapter 312: Arrival in Japan

Inside the Tokyo branch of the Orthodox History Compilation Committee, Amakasu Toma strode purposefully towards the department head's office, ignoring anyone who tried to question him, a stark contrast to his usual demeanor.

Passing through a corridor adorned with several potted plants, Amakasu pushed open the wooden door.

The room was lavishly decorated, but the antique touches prevented it from being vulgar, instead exuding an aristocratic air, revealing the owner's refined taste.

But Amakasu Toma had no time to admire the surroundings.

He strode to the desk and slammed his hand on it, startling the cross-dressing beauty who was dozing off.

Department Head Saya Palace! Something terrible has happened! How can you still be sleeping here!"

Poor Amakasu couldn't imagine how someone could have the nerve to sleep soundly when the sky was falling.

The cross-dressing beauty rubbed her sleepy eyes and took a full five seconds to recognize the person in front of her.

"...What, it's Amakasu."

She yawned and then slumped back onto the desk.

"Just leave the usual documents to the people below. I didn't sleep well last night, so please try not to disturb me if possible..."

With that, her slender eyes drooped again.

Even the usually composed Amakasu Toma couldn't help but feel annoyed.

He completely disregarded propriety, stepped forward, and grabbed Saya Palace Kaoru's collar, pulling her directly off the desk.

"Department Head Saya Palace! I'm not joking! Something terrible has really happened! A Godslayer is heading towards Japan and will arrive soon!"

"Ah..."

Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Saya Palace Kaoru slapped away Amakasu Toma's hand on her collar.

Then, she slowly leaned back in her chair, stretched languidly, yawned, and gazed at Amakasu Toma with drowsy eyes.

"I know, didn't we already know about it?"

"The new king, the Sun King, is visiting, and we've done what he asked. Besides, the knight beside him said we don't need to greet him."

"What are you so nervous about?"

Saya Palace Kaoru was extremely dissatisfied.

The Orthodox History Compilation Committee had known about Yuan Cunchun Cheng's arrival for a long time.

But Japan hadn't produced a Demon King in centuries.

Apart from experiencing the divine might of Luo Hao long ago, Japanese magicians had never encountered a Godslayer of the same caliber.

Moreover, Yuan Cunchun Cheng had already said that they were just here on vacation, to take a stroll, and to keep an eye on a middle school student.

The Orthodox History Compilation Committee had already taken care of everything.

What was there to worry about?

Couldn't she just get some sleep!

Didn't they know that staying up late was a woman's greatest enemy?

"Department Head."

Amakasu Toma pushed up his black-rimmed glasses with a wry smile.

"I'm not talking about the Sun King."

"In fact, just now, Marquis Vauban sent a notice to the shrine maidens."

"They need to prepare all Maidens with spiritual abilities and have the altar ready within three days."

"!?"

Hearing this news, Saya Palace Kaoru instantly woke up completely.

Her mouth opened wide, her face filled with shock.

"Are you saying that the Marquis is planning to summon a Heretic God in Japan?"

"Yes."

Amakasu Toma sighed and took off his glasses, wiping them with a handkerchief.

"Moreover, the Sun King will also be in Japan, and there's a high probability they'll meet!"

Saya Palace Kaoru's face, which had been flushed from sleep, instantly lost all color and turned pale.

Godslayers were Demon Kings on earth, ruling humanity, those who killed Gods.

They often had their own territories and mostly didn't interact with each other.

Didn't the Sun King just cut down the Sun King!

The price was that a city was directly turned into ruins.

Not to mention that the Marquis was planning to summon a Heretic God this time.

The allure of a Heretic God to a Godslayer was no less than that of drugs to an addict.

There was no way the Sun King wouldn't try to snatch it.

Two Godslayers and one Heretic God.

Just thinking about the possible scenario made Saya Palace Kaoru feel dizzy.

"Damn it, why are there so many Maidens in Japan?"

"If there weren't, there wouldn't be so much trouble."

At this moment, Saya Palace Kaoru's resentment seemed to emanate from her like a real mist.

Only Maidens could perform the spiritual ceremony.

At the very least, they had to inherit the bloodline of a Maiden, and Maidens originated from Japan.

Japan had the most of them.

In the past, it was fine. Every so often, a Demon King would let Japan be harvested, sending these Maidens over.

To ensure Japan's stability, they didn't have any psychological burden about it.

But this time, the summoning was going to take place in Japan...

They really couldn't handle it.

Even though Japan hadn't had a Godslayer for many years, and even Heretic Gods rarely appeared in this land,

that didn't mean they didn't understand the destructive power of Godslayers and Heretic Gods.

Now was the information age, and they had seen the ravaged scenes abroad.

Japan was currently in an economic recovery period.

If they were hit by something like this, Japan would be finished.

"Department Head, let me remind you in advance."

"You have the bloodline of a Maiden. There may not be enough Maidens this time."

The muttering Saya Palace Kaoru was instantly stunned.

Her mouth opened and closed, like a fish blowing bubbles.

Yes.

Before things happened to her, she could be aloof and indifferent.

But when it was happening to her, she couldn't be the same as before.

Saya Palace Kaoru rested irritably on the desk, her fingers splayed through her hair.

"What should we do now?"

"Can't we send the Maidens over, or ask the Sun King to change his route and come a few days later!"

Amakasu Toma looked at Saya Palace Kaoru with the expression of someone looking at an idiot.

"Department Head, if you haven't woken up from your dream, you can slap yourself."

"How likely do you think those two things are?"

Marquis Vauban had clearly stated that he would perform the ceremony in Japan.

The Sun King had already confirmed his itinerary.

Who gave you the guts, a mere human, to advise a Godslaying Demon King? Are you crazy?

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"At least minimize the damage."

"We can't let them fight directly in the city."

Saya Palace Kaoru regained her composure, frowning in thought.

For them, avoiding a battle in the city was the most desirable thing.

After all, Japan was an extremely densely populated city.

The sacrifice would be immeasurable if a city was destroyed.

"If I may suggest, I think we need to quickly inform one of them of the situation and guide them according to our wishes."

"That way, we can minimize the damage."

Behind Amakasu Toma's thick lenses, a light of wisdom reflected.

"You mean, we provide convenience so that the Demon Kings can meet directly, within a limited area?"

"But the difference between the Demon Kings won't be that great, right?"

Saya Palace Kaoru felt that her subordinate's idea was a bit far-fetched.

But Amakasu Toma gently shook his head.

"First of all, Marquis Vauban asked us to prepare the altar."

"This means that the initial choice of the battlefield has been handed to us."

"All we need to do is one thing."

At this point, Saya Palace Kaoru's eyes lit up.

"You mean, tell the new king?"

In the next second, Saya Palace Kaoru became even more excited.

"We can accept the outcome no matter who wins."

"That's right, but we need to grasp the timing."

"The Heretic God must also be eliminated."

Saya Palace nodded, agreeing with Amakasu Toma's proposal.

"Prepare everything now, get the car ready. We'll go to Tokyo Airport together. I'll change my clothes."

"Yes!"
