"Roar! Human!"
With a roar, a huge, snake-like monster with a dark purple chakra all over its body appeared.
One after another, its heads were flying wildly.
Like Yamata no Orochi!
The otherworld demon, Mōryō.
Its body was constantly bursting with chakra, covering the entire plaza in front.
Seeing this, the soldiers of the Land of Demons couldn't help but feel a chill. Miroku's light purple pupils were flashing.
They all looked at the figure in the sky.
It was too incredible.
This monster had attracted the king of the Wandenreich.
Facing such a legendary figure, Miroku and the others couldn't help but be moved!
Like Miroku, although she was the priestess of the Land of Demons, and her status was not weaker than that of Queen Sāra of Rōran, the Land of Demons was, after all, a small country.
To suddenly see the ruler of a great nation, the strongest in the ninja world, no one could remain calm.
"...You really disappoint me."
The moment Mōryō appeared, Lucian's interest was halved.
This guy was probably not as strong as Manda. He was so weak.
He wasn't weak, but his energy was essentially chakra!
The other world also has chakra?!
"Perhaps he learned it in the ninja world..."
After all, there was this possibility. Lucian had hoped to find a trace of the "other world" in Mōryō.
After all, this was the first time Mōryō had appeared in the world.
His body and soul had not been sealed. His specific intelligence was not clear, and the ninja world had no knowledge of him.
"This monster is too big. Can the master of the Wandenreich do it..."
"Are you kidding me? This is just a small demon. That one is a demon king."
"You idiot! That one is a great king! Many small countries have a divine position for him."
"..."
A divine position?
A god?
It shouldn't be a demon god, right?
Lucian had no feelings about some countries treating him as a god.
In this world, 'god' was just an adjective for a powerhouse that could not be understood.
To an ant, a human was also a god.
Under the horrified gazes of the soldiers of the Land of Demons, Mōryō was preparing to roar again.
Lucian, in the sky, casually glanced at him!
BOOM!!
The huge, Yamata no Orochi-like body exploded on the spot, but it did not die.
The materialized chakra wrapped around the soul and let out a terrified roar!
"Human! You destroyed my body! Then I..."
Mōryō roared.
Just as the people of the Land of Demons thought he was going to fight Lucian to the death.
His words suddenly changed!
"Then I'll leave! Sorry to bother you!"
Under the countless bewildered eyes, the huge Mōryō turned its head and ran. Its eight chakra heads even split apart.
They split into eight snakes and fled in eight directions.
It's not that I, Mōryō, am a coward.
It's that this human is too strong.
This is called a strategic retreat.
"Can you escape? Let me just search your soul..."
Suddenly, Mōryō's soul was in extreme pain. That voice seemed to have a magical power.
The split soul and chakra, as if time had reversed, re-gathered.
And in that instant, its whole body was compressed into a dark purple chakra sphere, which landed in Lucian's hand.
"...Roar! Impossible!!"
Mōryō simply couldn't believe that such a thing could happen.
He had admitted before that the other party was stronger than him, but not to this extent.
"Roar, ooh, ooh, ah, ah, ah!"
The sky echoed with Mōryō's extremely painful voice.
Lucian was forcefully tearing apart his soul and wantonly reading his memories.
"So... so strong..."
Below, everyone in the Land of Demons was stunned.
From beginning to end, facing that terrifying monster, the master of the Wandenreich had only glanced at him.
"Gulp!"
The priestess's guard was filled with terror. His voice was dry, "Lady Miroku... can a person be that strong?"
Miroku: You're asking me? Who should I ask?
But Miroku was, after all, a priestess. She had to maintain her mystery and coldness at all times. She said faintly:
"A great existence that can pressure the Five Great Nations. This kind of strength is a matter of course."
At the same time, Miroku's heart was like a cat was scratching it, full of shock.
My god! Fate is above!
Even you probably didn't expect there to be such a terrifying existence in the ninja world, right?
Miroku could not see any of Lucian's fate or future.
It was as if death was something that could not touch Lucian's body at all.
"Pfft!"
Suddenly, Miroku suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with an unbelievable color.
"Lady Miroku, are you alright?"
Many guards were worried.
"No... I'm fine."
Miroku forced herself to calm down, but her heart was constantly trembling.
She had just subconsciously tried to predict the future and had been directly injured by the shock.
If she hadn't reacted in time and had immediately cut it off, Miroku wouldn't dare to imagine the consequences.
"Hm?"
Lucian glanced at Miroku.
This woman.
Did she predict my related future?
Even the Great Toad Sage had vomited blood. For Miroku to not have died was purely good luck.
"So that's how it is..."
After collecting all of Mōryō's memories and tracing the root of his soul, Lucian was enlightened.
Mōryō was indeed from another world.
But that kind of other world was more like a different space in a crack in the ninja world's time and space.
Like Kaguya's space.
Although it was constructed by Kaguya's Bloodline Encompassing, this space did exist.
It was in a crack in a special time and space.
"But it's a little different..."
Lucian found that Mōryō's other world had touched something.
When he had walked out of the other world, his body had been stained with a trace of an aura that did not belong to the ninja world. It was extremely special.
"It wasn't a wasted trip."
Putting Mōryō into the Spirit-Absorbing Ring, Lucian grabbed that trace of aura in his hand.
"Mother, mother..."
At this moment, a crisp voice was heard, with the sound of light footsteps.
She was cautiously approaching.
"Shion?"
Seeing the little girl who had walked out of the palace, Miroku's expression immediately hardened.
"Didn't I say? Before I come to find you, you are not allowed to come out. It's dangerous outside."
"Mother..."
The little girl stopped in her tracks, her small hands wringing the corner of her clothes, at a loss.
She couldn't help but look up at the sky, her eyes wide.
"That person is so amazing. He's standing in the sky..."
The girl was no more than four or five years old.
Her appearance was surprisingly similar to Miroku's.
But unlike Miroku's light ink-colored hair, the girl's hair was light yellow, and she also had the same light purple pupils as Miroku.
Her eyes were darting about, cute.
"Is that Shion?"
Lucian also glanced at her.
It was about the same period.
When Shion was young, she had witnessed Miroku die while sealing the demon.
Because of her innately powerful strength, even Miroku had had to use a sealing stone to seal a large part of Shion's power.
SWISH!
Having obtained a wisp of aura, Lucian left the Land of Demons.
"Huh? Mother, that person has disappeared..."
Shion's eyes kept looking around, trying to find Lucian's figure.
"He's gone?"
Miroku was in a daze for a moment, and then she ordered:
"The turmoil is over. Immediately restore the capital to its original state."
"Yes, Lady Priestess."
The soldiers all went down to get busy.
Miroku also held Shion and walked into the palace.
In Miroku's arms, Shion comfortably closed her eyes and muttered, "Mother's body is so warm..."
Miroku couldn't help but smile, "What a spoiled child."
For this child, who had been conceived with the mysterious energy passed down from the previous priestesses, Miroku loved her from the bottom of her heart.
In order to ensure that the female descendants had the purest priestess power, Miroku had begun to use the energy that had been passed down from the ancient priestesses a few years ago to conceive Shion.
Shion's birth and growth were also Miroku's happiest years.
"I wish it could always be like this..."
Shion muttered again, and Miroku's heart couldn't help but shake.
If that great king had not acted this time, her ending would have been the same as what she had seen.
She would have died sealing the demon.
At that time, Shion would be all alone.
Shion opened her eyes and asked curiously, "By the way, Mother, who was that person standing in the sky just now? He's so amazing..."
"..."
Miroku's voice paused. She looked back at the guards who had survived the disaster, and her words changed.
"He will be my king!"
WOW!
This sentence shocked the guards.
At the same time, the guards had an uncontrollable surprise in their hearts.
"Lady Priestess, your decision is too great!"
The invasion of the immortal army and the invasions of the surrounding countries had made them understand that the Land of Demons was not strong, but weak.
If they joined the Wandenreich!
In the future, the Land of Demons would never be bullied again.
After all, the atmosphere in the ninja world was oppressive now. If they didn't find a backer, they would be destroyed sooner or later!
According to the rumors, even the ancient country of Rōran had joined the empire and had found a backer.
Why couldn't they?
Was the Land of Demons, was Lady Priestess, worse?
The Queen of Rōran, Sāra: What do you mean? Are you copying me?
The Priestess of the Land of Demons, Miroku: How can the matter of submission be called copying? That's called following your heart.
The little loli, Shion, nodded her head wildly.
Mhm, mhm! Mother is right.
"The atmosphere in the ninja world is getting more and more oppressive. Tomorrow, send a team with me to the Wandenreich. We'll join as soon as possible!"
"Yes, Lady Miroku."
