I, Who Saved Xingyue, Became the Master of Xingyue

"...Ah, it's terrible!"

Before Sayaka regretted that she had done the fire, sirens sounded in the distance.

Perhaps the security forces of the special zone guards sensed the abnormality of the demon registration card and were rushing here.As the attacking magician of the Lion King's agency, fighting with the registered demons is a big deal no matter how you think about it, but Sayaya Hua, who noticed this, was breaking out in a cold sweat.

This is the prelude to the first mission of the Lion King Agency's Mai Weiyuan, Hwangsaka Sayaka, on Itogami Island.

Chapter 53 Puppeteer

"Really... What is going on in your mind when you use Huang Hualin on such a street, it makes Wu Weiyuan's name stink."

After a few hours.In the arms of the depressed Sayaka, a cat was preaching.

This is a beautiful black cat.The color of the pupils is dazzling gold, and the collar is inlaid with golden elk horns of the same color as the pupils.

However, as long as people with magic skills see it, they will immediately realize that this is not an ordinary animal.This is a familiar that is remotely controlled by a powerful long-range spell.

"Yes, I'm sorry. But, the other party is a demon...!"

Sayayaka defended the black cat with a weak attitude.

Manipulating the black cat's speech is Yuan Tangyuan, a special instructor of the Lion King Agency—that is, Sayaya Hua's former master.Even after graduating from Takagami no Mori and being officially given the title of Mai Weiyuan, Sayaya Hua can't hold her head up in front of her.It's not because of respect, but because Sayaya Hua's fear of this person named Yuantangyuan has penetrated deep into her bones.

"Registered demons are excellent citizens, in this [Demon Special Zone]."

Yuan said with a dashing aura.

Sayaya Hua pursed her lips as if she was in an awkward situation:

"Basically, there is a problem with setting up the police station of the Lion King Agency in a place full of suspicious buildings around it!"

"Hey... how suspicious is it? I hope you can explain it in detail. What do you think those buildings are used for?"

The black cat looked at Sayaka mischievously, and Sayaka swallowed the words in her mouth.Of course, the black cat deliberately asked Sayaya Hua to answer on the premise that he knew the answer.This is more like a sexual harassment boss than a powerful conjurer.

The strange cat inadvertently changed into a serious tone.

"That piece of land is a dead corner of spiritual power, and it is a good place to maintain the enchantment of driving people. From the perspective of terrain, it also has a strong ability to defend against spell attacks."

"what……"

Is that so... Sayaya Hua nodded without motivation.It seems that as a branch of the Lion King's agency "Demon Special Zone", it is reasonable to establish it in the middle of the love hotel street.

"Uh...compared to these, please tell me the reason why I came here. After finishing the task quickly, I have a place I want to go."

Sayaya Hua recovered her mood and said.The black cat narrowed its eyes unhappily, and deftly brought the photo pinned around its neck to Sayaya Hua.

"This is?"

"Zachary Doshima Andret is of Japanese descent with Spanish nationality and is an internationally wanted magic criminal. He is commonly known as a puppeteer."

"... Puppeteer?"

"This man is a very powerful magician, especially good at operating living bodies. The artificial life body adjusted by this man is called a work of art by everyone, and it is still being bought and sold at a high price. It is said that he was still in Seville He is a professor of medical magic at his university."

"Professor at the university...?"

Sayaya Hua stared at the man in the photo, slightly confused.

This figure with the title of puppeteer is younger than expected.It was a long-haired man in white clothes.With this confident expression, he can accept the evaluation that he has a high ability as a magician.

"Such a person, a magic criminal...why?"

"Because this man is a very powerful magister, but he lacks an important part called conscience."

"conscience?"

"This guy has killed more than 20 humans and demons in illegal experiments for his own research. It is said that there are more than ten times as many people who were killed as victims of artificial life."

"what……!?"

Sayayaka listened to the black cat's unmoved explanation, and swallowed a breath in a daze.Even if it was a simple murderer looking for novelty, the number of victims would be too many.This is not so much a murder as a mass murder.

"And after being wanted as a magician criminal, more people came to Andrett to entrust him with work. After all, the artificial life forms and mechanical dolls made by this guy are of such high value."

"... Is such a dangerous criminal lurking on Itogami Island?"

Sayaka asked bluntly.As Wu Weiyuan herself, now she can somewhat understand the reason why she was suddenly called to Xianshen Island.

"That's what the black market dealer caught last week said. It is said that he sold parts of military mechanical dolls to Andret."

"A military mechanical doll..."

"Since that guy is an internationally wanted criminal, the Lion King Agency will be responsible for its punishment. After all, the Lion King Agency also wants to obtain the technology and customer list held by the puppeteer."

"It's my mission to find Zachary Andrett and capture him alive."

As Sayayaka said, she firmly clenched the handle of the musical instrument case on her shoulder.

The sorcerer who claimed many lives in the name of experiments bought parts for military dolls.If it is ignored like this, it will definitely lead to quite bad consequences.

"Can it be done?"

The black cat asked calmly and without emotion.

Of course, Sayaka nodded vigorously.

Unlike the sword shaman who has specialized in fighting demons, Wu Weiyuan of the Lion King Agency was originally responsible for curses and assassinations.While assassination opportunities are impossible in modern Japan, the skills of assassins can be of great help in tracking criminals and surveillance.Therefore, only Saiya Hua is capable of capturing this criminal who even the police can't deal with.

"Then please, let me see your growth."

"understand……"

Facing the black cat familiar controlled by her master, Sayaka lowered her head deeply, and from time to time she secretly watched the reaction of the black cat.

"That, that... that's how it is, master. After this task is over, I want to apply for paid leave... Now that I've come to Itogami Island, I want to go and see how Yukina looks."

While watching the black cat's reaction, Sayaka carefully said her request.

It was only a few days ago that Saiyaka knew that Yukina, who was both her friend and her former roommate, was transferred to Itogami Island to perform the mission of the Lion King Agency.It is said that she is currently in charge of monitoring the Fourth Primogenitor, known as the world's strongest vampire.Since hearing the news, Sayaka has been restless and worried about Yukina's situation.

For Sayaya Hua, this mission is just a ride.It's a perfect plan to meet Himeragi Yukina after finishing the task quickly.

Just wait to get permission from the boss Karen—but,

"……master?"

Noticing the strangeness of the black cat, Sayaka raised her head in confusion.

The black cat held in Sayaka's arms let out a short yawn with a meow.It's almost like an ordinary cat, completely without the human feeling just now.

No matter how you look at it, it is an ordinary cat, and it seems that it is the fate of the master who has cut off the connection between himself and the familiar.

"Wait a minute, master, what are you doing!? Where is my paid leave? Please answer, master! Master, you idiot!!!"

No matter how loudly Sayaka shouted, the black cat didn't respond.On the other hand, the passers-by who looked at Sayaka who shouted at the black cat turned their eyes away and left quickly.

----

The northern part of the artificial island (Iasland·North) is a street of experimental facilities and research institutes with many companies and universities.It is a futuristic area composed of overlapping layers of underground streets.

A man in black plain clothes stood beside an old building in the corner of this area.

He has pitch-black hair and a pair of wine-red pupils, with a golden streamer faintly flashing in those pupils.There was a trace of coldness on his face, and a trace of unruly temperament.

"Is it the former site of the research institute of the old Sperud Pharmaceuticals..."

Looking at the entrance of the blocked building, Tianyang whispered without interest.

Sperud Pharmaceuticals refers to a pharmaceutical company headquartered in the Kingdom of Rotalingia, Europe.In order to use artificial life forms to conduct clinical experiments on new drugs, they set up research facilities in the [Demon Special Zone].However, due to reasons such as the economic downturn and excessive costs, the institute was closed down.This building also remains from that time.

This is the area that Tianyang sensed, and it is also the location of the puppeteer observed by clairvoyance and omniscient star, but then again, I didn't expect it to be here.

"Well, this place has been abandoned for a long time, so it's no wonder no one found out about using this place as a stronghold."

This is also a matter of course, after all, no one will take care of an abandoned place.

Beside Tianyang was a blue-haired artificial life girl, her expressionless face showed no emotion.

However, the clothes on Astarut made Tianyang feel a little...

"Speaking of which, Astarut, what is your outfit?"

It was a standard maid outfit, and it was the clothes that Astarut had already put on after Tianyang entered. It seemed that that month changed it for her during the hour of that month's forced confession.

"I understand the question. The answer is the supplies I got from Nangong Nayue."

Facing Astarut's emotionless answer, the corner of Tianyang's mouth twitched fiercely.

"Sure enough, that damned maid, if she sees the head maid, she probably has to discuss the true meaning of a maid with the head maid..." Tian Yang felt extremely speechless about this, and at the same time complained like this .

"I don't have enough cognitive information about 'Maid Control', please explain the problem with this suit!"

Astarut tilted his head slightly and asked.

"It's nothing, don't worry about it, but after the puppeteer is dealt with, I'll go and buy some clothes for you. I still have a lot of experience in choosing clothes for a little girl in your grade. After all... There are girls like Tina who need to take care of them at home..." Speaking of this, Tianyang had a touch of nostalgia on his face, to be honest, I haven't seen those girls for a long time, so I'd better go back and have a look sometime. or let them come,

"I accept the order..." Astarut didn't quite understand Tianyang's words, but she still nodded silently.

Afterwards, the two stepped towards the inside of the gate.

Chapter 54 Intruders

The two walked towards the interior of the institute.

The reason why Mr. Jian chose this place as their hiding place was to adjust the artificial beasts in Astarut's body.I am afraid that the adjusted data used at that time still remains somewhere in the research institute.

To recover it before it falls into the hands of other magic criminals-this is Tianyang's purpose.After all, Tianyang himself is very aware of the danger of artificial beasts. He can even create artificial life forms like Astarut that can devour magic power. More powerful artificial life forms are still worth it.

Although Tianyang doesn't mind fighting against the strong, Tianyang hates trouble very much.

"...Is it an adjustment tank for artificial lifeforms? It's bigger than expected."

Tian Yang, who had arrived at the experimental area of ​​the research room, frowned while inspecting the floors.

This is a room with a high ceiling reminiscent of a church sanctuary.

There are cylindrical sinks neatly lined up there.The remains of abandoned artificial life forms floated in a two-meter-high tank filled with amber liquid.This is not so much an unpleasant scene as a sad one.

"It's impossible for that Rudolph guy alone to do the delicate work of implanting beasts into artificial life forms. It's only natural to think that he has a helper—do you have any impression of your designer? , Astarut?"

"Negative. The memory before activation has been completely erased."

Astarut shook his head.From those emotionless water-blue pupils, it is impossible to see her inner thoughts.
