In a dim room, a red candle on the table emitted a faint light, and mysterious figures in black robes filled both sides of the long table.
At this moment, the burly figure in the main seat, with hands clasped under his chin, looked at the black-robed figures on both sides and spoke with a worried tone:
"The Security Force has been pursuing us more and more closely recently. Please feel free to share any thoughts you have."
Hearing the words of the black-robed figure in the main seat, the black-robed figures on both sides looked at each other, unsure how to respond.
Finally, the black-robed figure sitting first on the right spoke.
"I think for such a major issue, shouldn't we wait for the Vice President to return before making a decision?"
Hearing the words of this black-robed figure, many black-robed figures seemed to find their backbone and spoke up one after another:
"Yes, why don't we wait for the Vice President to return."
"Right, right."
"Anyway, the Security Force won't find this place anytime soon."
"That makes sense."
The black-robed figure in the main seat listened to the discussions below, thought for a moment, and nodded in agreement.
Indeed, for such an important matter, it seemed they couldn't handle it on their own. It was better to wait for that guy to return.
"Since everyone thinks so, this meeting is temporarily adjourned. We'll discuss it again when that guy returns."
"Also, this stronghold must be kept secret. This is a place I carefully selected, guaranteed no one will discover it."
"Don't worry."
"Mm."
Just as everyone was about to leave, a figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of them.
The newcomer first expressionlessly bowed slightly to the black-robed figure in the main seat, placing a hand over his chest, then spoke words that made everyone present erupt.
"Lord Veldora, Aihara Enju is missing in the Magical Index world, suspected to have been captured by people from that world."
"What!!! Enju is missing?"
Veldora, in the main seat, stood up excitedly after hearing this, and with a wave of his right hand, the entire room instantly became as bright as day.
At this time, many petite black-robed figures also lifted the black robes covering their heads, revealing anxious little faces.
"Enju won't be in trouble, will she?"
"Who on earth captured Enju-chan?"
"Damn it, don't let me find out who it is, or I will never let him go!"
Unlike the anxious state of the little lolis, Veldora at this moment just looked at Ze Qi'en with a gloomy expression.
"Is it confirmed that the Little girl has been captured?"
"Yes, Lord Veldora."
"Good, good, good! Even my people dare to capture..."
Veldora said "good" three times, and then his entire person instantly vanished from the spot.
Although Veldora is usually bullied by Aihara Enju, that doesn't mean their relationship is bad.
On the contrary, their relationship is extremely good. Veldora treats Aihara Enju like a younger sister, and now someone dares to lay a hand on her. This truly shows they don't take him, this evil dragon, seriously!
Seeing Veldora disappear, the many lolis present looked at each other and finally decided to use their respective divine abilities.
Simply put, they were calling for backup!
Seeing this, Ze Qi'en didn't say much, only reminded them to be careful, and then disappeared.
In the Occult Research Club of Kuoh Academy, Rias was having pastries and red tea with Himejima Akeno, Sona Sitri, and others.
Suddenly, with a bang, the room door was heavily pushed open, and Koneko ran in, looking flustered.
"Oh my, Koneko, what's wrong? Is there a monster chasing you?"
Himejima Akeno looked at the flustered Koneko and teased her with a smile.
"Yes, Koneko, what's wrong with you?"
The people present didn't think anything big had happened. After all, with the current size of the Monster Country Federation, what could possibly go wrong? Didn't they see that the highest-ranking officials were all so idle?
"Enju-chan... she..."
Hearing Koneko mention Aihara Enju, the people present all smiled and asked:
"What's wrong with her? Was she lectured by Chairwoman Shizu again?"
"Heh heh, that Little girl is the best at causing trouble."
"No... no... Enju-chan was captured in the Magical Index world and disappeared!!!"
"What!!!"
Hearing Koneko say that the other party had been captured, everyone present stood up in shock.
Good heavens, this was truly a world-shattering event. Whose subordinate on earth was so brave as to dare to capture that Little girl?
"President, what should we do?"
Koneko looked at the shocked crowd and asked in a panic.
"Alright, Rias, I'll contact my sister first, and you contact your brother. How dare they touch the Little girl Enju..."
Sona Sitri did not continue speaking, but the killing intent in her eyes began to flicker.
Rias, beside her, also nodded with a serious expression.
Both of them had a very good relationship with Aihara Enju, as that girl was everyone's ray of sunshine.
Every day she would run around energetically, and there was no one in the entire Monster Country Federation who didn't like her.
Not to mention, that girl also represented five million Cursed Children, making her, in a way, one of the top figures in the Monster Country Federation.
"Don't worry, Koneko, Enju-chan will be fine. Don't forget about Teacher Zhong Chen."
Hearing Zhong Chen's name, the anxious hearts of the crowd involuntarily calmed down, as if as long as he was there, any problem could be solved.
"Mm."
In the Imperial Mobile Force Commander's office, Sakazuki looked at the application form for new weapons and couldn't help but frown.
There was no war now, and if they were to re-equip on a large scale, Minister Shuna might not agree.
As Sakazuki was deep in thought, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a sobbing figure scurried in.
"Waaah waaah waaah... Brother... Enju-chan is missing... Waaah waaah waaah..."
Seeing the small figure run in, Sakazuki quickly stood up and went to the small figure, kneeling down in front of her with a worried expression, and asked softly:
"Don't rush, tell Brother slowly what's wrong. Enju-chan is missing? Oh... is it that Little girl Aihara Enju? She's missing?"
"Mm, Brother Ze Qi'en said... said... waaah waaah... said Enju-chan was captured... waaah waaah waaah..."
Sakazuki's brows were furrowed even tighter now. He knew that girl Aihara Enju; after all, she was his sister's good friend.
She had even visited their home several times, but it shouldn't be. Who would be so bold as to dare to capture that girl? Isn't that just asking for an early death?
"Alright, don't be sad. Brother will help you find her, okay?"
Hearing her brother's words, Nice looked up, pursed her small lips, and gazed at Sakazuki with teary, wide eyes, looking pitiful.
"Really?"
"Of course, don't worry, that girl will be fine."
"Mm..."
"Hey, old man, that girl Aihara Enju has been captured."
"What!!! Who is so reckless as to dare to capture her? Azazel, assemble the First Fleet, and bring out the Colossus!!!"
Butterfly Mansion... Kanae Kocho, who had just finished handling government affairs and returned home to prepare for dinner, was suddenly drawn by a clear, cold voice.
"Sister Kanae, Enju has been captured."
"Kanao, who did you say was captured?"
"Enju... Sister Kanae, can you find a way to look for Enju... I... I'm very worried about her..."
Tsuyuri Kanao's usually expressionless face rarely showed a hint of worry.
She, who never spoke an extra word, actually came out today and asked Kanae for help in finding someone...
