History Compilation Committee, Tokyo Branch—
"Um, Young Miss..."
Looking at the gloomy expression on Young Miss Kaoru's face behind the desk, who had been staring at the newly arrived intelligence for a long time without saying a word, Amakasu Touma called out with some trepidation.
He understood his boss very well. Time and time again, even he felt an incomparably frantic feeling.
The incident with the Cult Leader Luo Hao had just ended, and now the Monkey God-King, who was sealed and guarded by the Kuhoutsuka family, had been released. And what was even more fatal was that the Monkey God-King was actually the legendary Great Sage, Heaven's Equal!
Lord Kusanagi, oh Lord Kusanagi, we won't say anything about your usual improper conduct, but can't you just be a little quieter and not cause so much trouble?!!
"Athena, Marquis Voban, Metis, Cult Leader Luo Hao, and now Sun Wukong, hehehe... hehehehe..."
Under the astonished gaze of Comrade Amakasu, Young Miss Kaoru suddenly began to laugh foolishly.
Thinking back, it had been more than a year since that bastard had become a God-Slayer, right? Fighting, brawling, snatching women—there wasn't a single day of peace!
Every single time, he had to make others worry and clean up his mess. Even with the best patience, Young Miss Kaoru felt that she had had enough.
Although she really wanted to explode and vent her anger right now, Young Miss Kaoru knew that she couldn't, at least not yet...
"Hoo..."
Taking a deep breath, she tried her best to calm her raging heart.
"Go, seal off Nikko City. Don't let anyone else get close."
Waving her hand, Young Miss Kaoru instructed Amakasu Touma with a weak voice.
"Uh, Young Miss, just like that?"
Seeming to not believe it, Amakasu Touma asked with a stunned expression.
Such a big thing had happened in Nikko City. Weren't they going to do something to help?
"Hmph! Then what do you want?"
"With just us, can we turn those people who have become monkeys back?! With just us, can we defeat the Great Sage Sun Wukong?! With just us, besides preventing more people from being harmed, what else can we do?!"
"That bastard caused this mess. If he can't solve it, we'll all just wait to become monkeys together!"
Extremely annoyed, she stood up abruptly, almost shouting.
Dumbfounded, Amakasu Touma had never seen his superior show such a side. Snapping back to his senses, he couldn't help but shudder.
"Yes, I'll go do it now!"
Not daring to provoke Young Miss Kaoru at this time, Amakasu Touma bowed and quickly left the room to carry out her orders.
"Hoo..."
Sitting down again and rubbing her temples, Young Miss Kaoru only felt a terrible headache.
At this moment, Young Miss Kaoru was filled with regret. If only she had never met that bastard from the beginning...
…
Nikko City, on top of a certain tall building—
"Erica, Liliana, look, look, monkeys! So many monkeys!"
Looking at the chattering monkeys scurrying around the entire city below, the carefree Ena cried out in amazement.
"Ha... Although I had expected it, has it really come to this?"
Not bothering with that dead girl Ena who had no sense of crisis, Erica covered her forehead, her tone and expression filled with helplessness.
"Lily, investigate the Great Sage's intelligence and at the same time, see if there are any survivors."
As a well-trained knight, Erica quickly recovered and said to Liliana on the side.
Tracking and gathering intelligence was Liliana's area of expertise, so Erica entrusted this task to her.
"Got it."
Her expression was cold and serious as Liliana stepped forward.
Having competed with each other since they were young, and now serving by Sora's side as knights and lovers, after countless battles and working together, the two girls had already developed a great rapport.
Standing on the edge of the building, magical power surged. A strange light flickered in the girl's silver pupils, and the scene reflected in them was constantly changing.
[Witch's Eye], the reconnaissance magic used by Liliana, could greatly enhance her vision, allowing her to effectively gather the intelligence she wanted within a certain range.
Her magical eyes continuously scanned the entire city. Besides some damaged houses, there were only monkeys jumping up and down and wandering around. The girl naturally knew that these monkeys were originally the humans of this city, and a trace of indignation rose in her heart for the Great Sage's willful and evil act.
"There are no more survivors. They've all been turned into monkeys. As for the Great Sage—"
While reporting what she saw, she suddenly seemed to have discovered something and stopped abruptly.
"What's wrong, Lily? Did you find the Great Sage?"
Her expression tensed, Erica quickly asked Liliana. Ena on the side also had a look of confusion and curiosity.
"Ah, I found him. The Great Sage is resting on a tall building in the distance, seemingly recovering his divine power."
"There are three giant King Kongs guarding him. They should be divine beasts summoned by the Great Sage..."
"Ah, no! We've been discovered! Let's go!"
While describing what she saw to Erica and Ena, Liliana's expression suddenly changed, and she cried out to the two girls in alarm.
ROAR!!! ROAR!!! ROAR!!!
At the same time, the three divine beast King Kongs that were originally guarding Sun Wukong in the distance roared at the sky, beating their chests with their huge fleshy fists. Then, with all four limbs on the ground, they rushed towards the three girls with incredible speed!
As divine beasts, their strength was naturally unquestionable. The moment Liliana used her magical eyes to investigate Sun Wukong, the three giant King Kong monkeys had already discovered her. They were instantly enraged and, without thinking, wanted to annihilate these humans who dared to spy on their master.
His eyelids twitched. Sun Wukong naturally knew that someone had been spying on him just now, but he didn't care. It was just a few humans. His three little King Kongs were enough to deal with them.
Turning over to a more comfortable position, Sun Wukong continued to sleep soundly.
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
Although they had huge bodies, the three divine beast King Kongs' speed was incredibly fast. The little monkeys that humans had turned into squeaked and scattered in all directions. Some small bridges and buildings were even directly destroyed by their rough charge.
Perhaps in order not to let the three human girls escape, the three divine beasts sped up and leaped into the air with a powerful jump.
The ground caved in. The three huge figures leaped hundreds of meters into the air, a truly exaggerated and terrifying scene. And that wasn't all. The three divine beasts grabbed onto a tall building, used their limbs to push off, and leaped again. Using this method, the three giant King Kong monkeys quickly caught up with Erica and the other two girls!
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
ROAR!!!
Landing in front of the three girls and blocking their path, the three divine beasts opened their mouths, which were filled with sharp fangs, and roared violently.
Taking a few steps back, the three girls quickly summoned their beloved swords and assumed a defensive posture.
"It seems they don't want us to leave. Lily, Ena, one for each of you. Be careful."
Her expression was grim. Knowing that a battle was unavoidable, Erica said to her two sisters.
Nodding, the girls showed little fear. In fact, there was even a hint of a different kind of excitement and anticipation in their hearts.
The King's knights versus the Great Sage's divine messengers—which side would be stronger?!
