Ayanokouji Kiyotaka 175

Title: Hiding the Truth and Preparing to Deceive the Whole World

The scene shifts to the location where the White Whale is expected to appear.

Crusch and her company are currently on high alert. They have concluded that they have been attacked by the Witch Cult and this is just a trap from beginning to end.

However, because the explosion and smoke are blocking everyone’s view, Crusch and the others dare not act rashly, but choose to lock their formation.

They have all seen Petelgeuse’s strange power in the illusion. Although the Unsee Hand is terrifying, it is not impossible to overcome. Petelgeuse’s most troublesome ability is his ability to possess others.

Even if Petelgeuse is killed, it will only cost him one life. He can possess with his finger – he may even possess anyone in Crusch’s camp.

Currently, Crusch’s brain is spinning rapidly, thinking about how to deal with such a situation.

*BOOM*

Another loud explosion occurs, and the ground shakes, then countless footsteps and footsteps can be heard.

“What’s going on?!” Crusch and the others don’t know what the situation is now.

And the voice of ‘Petelgeuse’ can also be heard again

“Reinforcements? This is beyond the scope of the plan. Why, why? Do you really want to find someone to share your love with!? Do you just rely on others for everything? Such sloth, such sloth! I’ll let you go this time, next time, next time, next time! I will definitely let you feel my diligence!”

Petelgeuse’s voice quickly becomes soft, as if he has already left.

”What happened?” Crusch never understood what happened from beginning to end.

She clearly knows that she shouldn’t have any reinforcements. To ensure 100% defeat of the White Whale, she brought almost all the soldiers she could mobilize here.

“Did the Witch Cult people retreat?” Felix also had an expression of disbelief on his face.

“Judging from the current situation, it seems so.” Wilhelm said seriously. Suddenly, his eyes became sharper, and he saw a figure rushing towards him in the smoke and dust that was slowly dissipating.

Wilhelm put his hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to fight. Crusch and the other soldiers around her were also on high alert.

The figure moving through the smoke gradually emerged.

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka.

He, riding the earth dragon, appeared in front of everyone.

“You are Ayanokouji Kiyotaka!” After Crusch saw the newcomer’s appearance, she was slightly surprised. The other party was exactly the same as in the illusion, but why did he appear in front of her

“What do you want!” Felix said with a serious expression. After seeing the illusion, he felt that he didn’t have a good impression of Ayanokouji.

“Are you Crusch-sama?” Ayanokouji rolled off the earth dragon’s body.

Facing the question, Crusch was stunned for a moment, but she didn’t expect the other party not to recognize her.

‘Did Ayanokouji not see a vision?’ Crusch thought to herself, and at the same time answered, “Yes, I am Crusch Karsten.”

“Good thing, you’re safe.” Ayanokouji replied.

“Sorry, Ayanokouji, can you explain to us what’s going on now?” Crusch asked, she doesn’t know what’s going on now, and she doesn’t know how to deal with him.

She remembers that in the illusion, she was tricked by him, and became a tool for him to gradually control the royal capital, but she didn’t realize it at all.

“You should have seen the so-called sky illusion.”

”That’s right.”

“Many of you should have regarded this as a dragon’s revelation, but the reality is not so. This was deliberately shown by the Witch Cult to use your hand to deal with me.” Ayanokouji said it expressionlessly, making his words sound very serious.

“What?” Everyone was stunned. Felix was a little confused and immediately asked: “Then since it was done by the Witch Cult, why did they do it?”

”Sorry, who are you?”

“I am Crusch-sama’s knight, Felix.”

“Is that Felix-sama? I’ve heard of you.” Ayanokouji continued, “Has Felix-sama ever fought against the real Sin Archbishop?”

”No, meow.”

“Then how can we be sure that the power of the Sin Archbishops is the same as that in the illusion?”

Ayanokouji’s words caused a commotion among the members of Crusch’s camp.

“Indeed...” Crusch stretched out her hand and gently stroked her chin. She had never fought against the Sin Archbishop in the illusion, and she didn’t know if their true power was the same as in the illusion.

“If the information in the illusion is taken seriously, and it is actually false information given by the Witch Cult... The consequences will be disastrous.” Wilhelm nodded, agreeing with Ayanokouji’s statement.

As long as it is something that has not happened, the true situation will never be determined.

This is the element that Ayanokouji used.

“Then what happened just now?” Crusch asked again, her brows furrowed.

“The Witch Cult knows the importance of Crusch-sama to the kingdom, and knows Crusch-sama’s obsession and Sword Demon-sama’s obsession with the White Whale... This must be the famous Sword Demon Wilhelm.” Ayanokouji turned and looked at Wilhelm.

“I am just Crusch-sama’s servant now.” Wilhelm replied politely.

“The Witch Cult plans to use this to harm Crusch-sama. If everyone present is not present, the kingdom’s strength will be greatly reduced, so they are preparing to ambush you here.”

”Is that so?”

“According to my speculation, this is the case. To prevent their conspiracy from succeeding, I can only choose to use this method.” Ayanokouji took out his mobile phone and the loudspeaker he made, “This magic device called a mobile phone may be a product of another world. It happens to store some footsteps in it. I then used this loudspeaker to amplify the sound, creating the illusion that many people rushed here, trying to use the bluff to scare the other party away – just in case, I also found reinforcements, but fortunately, I scared the other party before that.”

“Did you come alone?”

After hearing his words, combined with the previous situation, Crusch, who is simple-minded, already believed him, and she had to sigh in her heart at Ayanokouji’s courage and strategy. She also used her Divine Protection and didn’t feel the aura of lies from him.

She couldn’t feel it in the illusion either.

However, beside Crusch, Felix has been observing every move of Ayanokouji. Although his appearance looks perfect, he still can’t believe him.

He can’t be sure if the content of the illusion is real, but if Ayanokouji really has the ability in the illusion, then it is very likely that he faked everything.

Felix didn’t choose to seek justice, but continued to observe. He believes that as long as it is a lie, there must be flaws.

And Ayanokouji is naturally very aware of Felix’s gaze fixed on him, but still chooses to turn a blind eye.

“Sorry, I can only do this so far, because in a sense, the Witch Cult’s conspiracy has succeeded, and I can’t find any more reinforcements for you.” Ayanokouji is talking deliberately and said, “I can only seek help from others based on the nature of gambling.”

“Who are the reinforcements you are looking for?”

Before Crusch finished speaking, a burst of sword energy directly penetrated the remaining smoke and dust, blowing it away completely

At the same time, a white-skinned man with red hair and a handsome face appeared in front of everyone.

Reinhard van Astrea.

“Great, everyone, you’re all right.” Reinhard breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Crusch and the others safe and sound.

“Ayanokouji, I received your letter, can Crusch-sama tell me about the current situation?”

“Like this...” Crusch quickly explained the situation to Reinhard, while Ayanokouji looked at the two people who were communicating with an expressionless face.

All this is exactly as he expected, and the timing is calculated very well.

The Witch Cult would never appear from beginning to end. For them, the only valuable targets for them, besides the previous witch’s belongings, are Ayanokouji and Emilia.

Everything Ayanokouji is doing now is rebuilding himself as a just and kind person.

In the eyes of others, his behavior is very risky, and he will not hesitate to take risks to save others.

The reason why others are now wary of him and even hunting him down is because of the illusion, and what Ayanokouji is doing now is to make others think that ‘this illusion is not real’.

As long as this idea emerges, it is enough.

He is now trying to make the most influential Sword Saint family and the Karsten family in the royal capital gradually believe him, and then use their family influence to clear his reputation.

In this way, he can take action freely in this world again.

At this time, Wilhelm carefully observed the place where the explosion just happened in the distance. The ground seemed undulating and undulating, and no footprints could be seen. However, one or two Gospels could indeed be seen, as well as fragments of the black robes of the Witch Cult, as if they had just been attacked by the Witch Cult.

All this is an illusion arranged by Ayanokouji.

He has made replicas of the Gospel and the Witch Cult uniforms, ensuring that all the details will not cause any problems.

“So...” After listening to Crusch’s words, Reinhard turned to Ayanokouji, his eyes fixed on him, “Thanks to Ayanokouji-sama this time, I also heard that the illusion may have been tampered with by the Witch Cult. Ayanokouji-sama, what you did is too risky.”

“I don’t have many choices, but I can’t watch Crusch-sama fall into a trap.” Ayanokouji said.

After Reinhard heard those words, he got the idea that the other party was different from the person in the illusion: “Ayanokouji-sama, what you did is very honorable, but now I still can’t fully believe you.”

“I understand.” Ayanokouji didn’t choose to explain, but continued, “But I will prove that I am not what you think.”

“I believe you can do it.” Reinhard nodded

“Ayanokouji-sama, since the illusion may have been made by the Witch Cult, will the White Whale still appear?” Wilhelm ignored Reinhard and asked Ayanokouji anxiously.

If the White Whale doesn’t appear, then everything will be meaningless.

“Sorry, I can’t guarantee this, because as long as it doesn’t happen in the future, there is no way to determine its authenticity.” Ayanokouji shook his head, “I just speculate that the Witch Cult faked the illusion, and maybe the vision was really a revelation from the divine dragon, but the Witch Cult tampered with it and changed some of the content. If that’s the case, then some events may actually happen.”
