Ayanokouji Kiyotaka 171

Title: You have no choice but to be loyal to me

Beatrice was only allowed to call Kiyotaka for him. It was part of the contract between the two. Ayanokouji believed that there might be a certain price to pay for breaking it, so he chose to fulfill the contents of the contract.

Echidna was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a while, she asked: “Who is it? Is it Betty?”

Beatrice was her creation, and the two were very similar in this regard.

“It’s none of your business.” Facing Echidna’s doubts, Ayanokouji simply replied lightly.

Then, he lowered his head, and a black pendant suddenly appeared on Echidna’s chest. A medium created after the two signed the contract. With it, Ayanokouji could communicate with Echidna in the spiritual world anytime and anywhere.

“Donna, you are clearly the smartest witch, but you are always played by Kiyo-chan. What a shame!”

As a childish voice sounded, Ayanokouji turned his head and looked up, a dark-skinned but delicate-faced girl appeared behind him.

Witch of Pride Typhon.

Not only her, but all the other witches also appeared.

“Is this the person who killed the whale and the rabbit?”

Inside the centipede coffin that resembled a spider, Daphne, wearing an eyepatch, said with a smile, while saliva kept flowing out of the corner of her mouth.

On the other hand, Carmilla buried her face completely under the collar of her clothes, but her red ears were clearly visible.

While Echidna obtained Emilia’s memories, other witches also saw this scene, and after Carmilla saw herself longing for Ayanokouji to come to the Dream Castle in the illusion, of course, she was a little embarrassed.

“Who are you?” Ayanokouji naturally remembered the identities of these people, but still asked.

“I am Typhon! The judge of all sins in the world!” Typhon walked closer, then politely extended her right hand, wanting to shake hands with him.

Echidna narrowed her eyes slightly. Typhon’s power was to make her target’s body shatter. If others had guilt in their hearts, they would feel severe pain.

Of course, Ayanokouji also knew this. However, in order to not reveal any flaws and to get closer to other witches at the same time, he still chose to shake hands.

First of all, the other self in the illusion didn’t feel pain, and the separated arm was quickly restored by Minerva.

Secondly, Ayanokouji also had something he wanted to try.

For example, his new ability, Imagine Breaker. Although this was a spiritual world, other witches could still use their powers, so he should be able to maintain his ability.

And the souls of other witches were inside Echidna’s soul. After signing a contract with Ayanokouji, they also had to obey his words, so he didn’t have to worry about his ability being revealed.

Soon, their hands touched each other.

At the same time, everyone present was stunned—because nothing happened after Ayanokouji shook hands with Typhon.

“No matter who it is, after touching Typhon, they will be torn apart. Why is it like this...” Minerva’s eyes widened, full of shock.

“Goodness, my power has no effect?” Typhon herself was very surprised.

Ayanokouji knew that the effect triggered by the Imagine Breaker ability held by his right hand was what canceled Typhon’s power, but he still asked: “What’s wrong? Are you going to do something?”

“I...” Typhon was very confused, not knowing why her power had no effect, then quickly walked towards Echidna: “Donna, help me!”

“What?” Just as Echidna was thinking about the reason, Typhon reached out her hand and touched Echidna.

The next moment, Echidna’s body collapsed like a building block and split into countless small pieces.

“Typhon!!!!” Echidna shouted angrily from her mouth that was split into one. Minerva rushed from the side, quickly swung her fist, and hit Echidna’s body.

As a burst of pink love smoke filled the air, Echidna, who had just been torn apart, returned to her original state in a blink.

“Typhon!” Echidona angrily scolded Typhon, while Typhon reached out her hand and gently stroked her chin: “Donna, didn’t I just destroy you? What’s the matter? Donna is too childish to get angry over such a trivial matter, but it’s really strange, clearly my power can be used normally.”

Typhon turned her head and looked at him. Ayanokouji’s expression didn’t change at all, and he looked very calm.

“Echidna.” Ayanokouji slowly walked towards her.

“What’s wrong?” Echidna glared at Typhon, then turned to Ayanokouji with a smile.

“Give me more information about Garfiel.” Ayanokouji said.

“You’re trying to win Garfiel over to your camp? There’s nothing wrong with that. After all, you don’t have many choices now.” Echidna quickly understood his intentions.

As she read Emilia’s memories, Echidna knew that the situation in their camp was not optimistic at the moment, so she could also guess Ayanokouji’s follow-up plan.

The reason why Ayanokouji chose Echidna as the first person to win over was because he wanted to use her knowledge to obtain information.

With Echidna’s wisdom, she could give him a lot of advice, but Ayanokouji naturally wouldn’t follow everything.

“Then, allow me to take you to see Garfiel’s trial.” A smile appeared on Echidna’s face.

“I have to say that the female humanoid version of Immortal Diamond is quite powerful.”

Sora’s eyes focused on Minerva. Her ability to heal wounds with her fists reminded him of a certain favorite anime character.

“Ayanokouji’s ability is also very special. If he can deliver the effect, he should be able to defeat the Sin Archbishop easily.” Shiro looked at the screen and said.

“Of course, if power and magic can’t be used, the Sin Archbishop shouldn’t be a problem at all.” Sora agreed.

“However, all this must be based on the fact that Imagine Breaker can be effective. If you can’t touch the opponent with your right hand, it’s meaningless.”

“Indeed...”

Sora knew that it wasn’t easy to get close to the Sin Archbishop, not to mention that the Sin Archbishop now knew Ayanokouji’s details, and the previous deception method couldn’t be used at all. The attack would be launched in an instant, so Ayanokouji wouldn’t have a chance to get close.

Using Shamak’s magic to block the view and get close might be a good way, but it could only achieve an effect if it was unexpected. After that, the enemy would definitely be on guard, and it would be difficult to succeed.

Then how would Ayanokouji face him?

❰❱LIVE STREAMING❰❱

The scene changed, Ayanokouji had left the Dream Castle, returned to the real world, and walked out of the ruins with Emilia.

Emilia successfully broke through the first level of the trial. After seeing the sky illusion, she had seen the previous reference answer.

After leaving the ruins, Roswaal couldn’t wait to approach. He didn’t care much about the results of Emilia’s trial, but he cared more about Ayanokouji’s results.

His eyes focused on Ayanokouji’s chest. The black pendant said it all.

Although there was a little jealousy in his heart, as long as he could revive his teacher, Roswaal didn’t care at all.

If they followed the normal process, the Sanctuary would be released, and Echidna would be resurrected as Omega.

Although it wasn’t the complete Echidna, it was indeed the real Echidna. Of course, Roswaal also wanted to revive his beloved teacher.

This made Roswaal even more eager to obtain dragon blood, which would make Echidna complete.

“Ayanokouji-sama, Emilia-sama, you have worked hard.” Roswaal had a clear smile on his face, and, “When will we officially release the Sanctuary?”

His words were full of impatience. Although it wasn’t the complete teacher, he was eager to meet Echidna again.

“Don’t be in a hurry.” Ayanokouji could feel Roswaal’s impatience, but he still replied calmly.

“Excuse me, why?”

“The Sanctuary’s barrier is now a barrier for us to avoid being monitored by others, and now there is something else I need to do.” Ayanokouji replied, and shifted his gaze to Garfiel who was waiting, “Garfiel, there is something I want to tell you.”

“Huh?” A confused expression appeared on Garfiel’s face, “Do you want to tell me something?”

“Yes, Echidna and I have talked about you.”

“Is there anything we can talk about regarding me?”

“I have seen the contents of your trial.” Ayanokouji continued.

“You!” Garfiel became angry, and veins popped up on his forehead.

But before he could say more, Ayanokouji continued:

“Your mother is still alive.”

“What?!” A shocked expression immediately appeared on Garfiel’s face, and he was stunned for a few seconds before recovering, “Are you joking!”

“I’m not joking.” Ayanokouji simply said calmly.

“How is that possible? I saw her dragon carriage crash into the cliff with my own eyes!”

“Then did you see her body with your own eyes?” Ayanokouji continued to ask.

And after hearing those words, Garfiel’s whole body seemed to freeze in place.

“Don’t you understand yet? From beginning to end, you were just being used by Echidna. She just wanted you to stay here and be her tool.” Ayanokouji deliberately paused, “She only let you see the beginning, but didn’t let you see the end. Your mother didn’t die, but was saved.”

“Why did she leave?”

“She wanted to find your father and give you a complete family, that’s all.”

“But why didn’t she come back?” Garfiel’s eyes were full of confusion.

“Maybe your mother suffered a serious head injury and lost her memory, or maybe she encountered something difficult to overcome. Maybe she is also waiting for you to come out.”

Starting from Echidna knowing that Garfiel’s mother hadn’t died, but all she knew was about things near the Sanctuary. Echidna wasn’t sure if the other party was still alive or what she was doing now.

But using this was more than enough to shake Garfiel.

“Are you sure?! Is mother still alive?”

“At least I can confirm that your mother was still alive when she left the Sanctuary. I don’t know how she is now and where she lives.” Ayanokouji deliberately shrugged, “But she is still alive now, the possibility should be very high. That’s all I can tell you now. How you choose in the future is your own business. I can only tell you that if you follow me, you may be able to find her whereabouts without limit.”

Ayanokouji continued: “Besides, I heard that in the illusion, I promised you to give the residents of the Sanctuary a better life, right? Regarding this, I can still give you the same promise. Now is the time. It’s your turn to choose whether you want to be loyal to me.”

Garfiel gritted his teeth. He didn’t believe him, let alone Roswaal’s presence in the camp.

But now it was difficult for him to refuse the terms offered by Ayanokouji.
