Ayanokouji Kiyotaka 160

Title: The Coronation Ceremony Held in Splendor

“Yes.” Facing Roswaal and inquiring impatiently, Ayanokouji only nodded slightly.

“What should I do?” Roswaal couldn’t remain calm once he found out something about reviving his teacher.

“I’ve already done it.” Ayanokouji turned and focused his gaze on Echidna beside him.

“This... is a Ryuzu copy?” Roswaal’s eyes were fixed on Echidna.

At this moment, Echidna was inhabiting Ryuzu’s copy body and using Omega as her new name, concealing her identity.

Roswaal was a little confused at first, but soon realized it.

“Could it be... that the liberation of the Sanctuary was actually...”

“Omega, no, Echidna, please reveal a little of your true identity.” Ayanokouji said.

“Really?” Echidna pursed her lips, then a smile appeared on her face.

In a flash, long white hair, a tall figure, and obsidian-like eyes appeared in front of Roswaal.

Echidna once again revealed her complete form.

“T-Teacher!” Roswaal saw Echidna, tears filled his eyes, and his body trembled with excessive emotion.

Although the Echidna in front of him was different from the one in his memories and looked younger, there was no doubt that this was the real Echidna.

He immediately understood that the Echidna in front of him was incomplete – even though Echidna had been revived, this made Roswaal even more determined in his heart to kill the dragon and use dragon blood to fully revive the complete teacher in his memories.

For this, he wouldn’t hesitate to pay any price.

“Teacher! Four hundred years... four hundred years! Finally, I meet you again!”

Even though the Echidna in front of him was different from the one in his memories, it was indeed Echidna. Roswaal was almost crying, and his voice was choked by sobs.

“Long time no see, Roswaal.” A meaningful smile appeared on Echidna’s face.

“This matter must be kept secret. Do you understand what I mean? Roswaal, if others find out, it might attract the attention of Echidna’s enemies.” Ayanokouji said.

“Yes, I understand.” Roswaal nodded, “Thank you very much, Ayanokouji-sama!”

“Ram doesn’t know about your arrival this time either.” Ayanokouji asked.

“That’s right, I promised no one would know.” As Roswaal spoke, his eyes never moved an inch from Echidna’s body.

He didn’t notice the meaning behind Ayanokouji’s words at all.

”That’s good.”

Then, a large hole suddenly appeared in Roswaal’s chest, and blood continuously spurted out.

Under the blood infection, an arm line appeared directly.

Unsee Hand.

Ayanokouji knew that Roswaal couldn’t see his inherited Unsee Hand, so he used it as a means to kill him.

“I see...” Roswaal suddenly understood the meaning of everything the other party had done. He knelt on the ground, feeling his blood and body temperature disappear together.

His pupils gradually dilated, but his eyes always focused on Echidna.

“Teacher...” Roswaal couldn’t utter a word before he fell into a pool of blood and completely ran out of breath.

Although Roswaal had lived for over four hundred years using the soul transfer ability, he was now suddenly attacked. He didn’t have time to react and transfer, and he didn’t have a vessel, so in the end, he could only usher in the end of death.

But before he died, if he could see Echidna, maybe Roswaal would die without regret.

“Ayanokouji, you are so gentle, you actually let Roswaal fulfill his wish before he died.” Echidna said with a smile, and her body returned to Ryuzu’s form.

“Sorry, I don’t have such thoughts.” Ayanokouji said lightly, and handed the clothes he brought to Echidna, who was also missing, “I let you recover to your original form just to completely distract Roswaal. After all, Roswaal is also one of the strongest mages among humans, so we can ensure that he’s killed.”

“Then you are truly cruel.” Echidna put on new clothes, “What’s next? What should we do.”

“Fake the scene and shift the murder to someone else.” Ayanokouji said calmly, “For example, the Witch Cult.”

❀❀❀

“Ah, Roswaal, you are pathetic.”

Looking at the scene on the screen, Elsa laughed mercilessly,

“Even so, do you still not want to give up using me?

“Yes, at least the Ayanokouji in the picture proves that he has talent, doesn’t he? He did it and successfully revived the teacher.”

Seeing his tragic death in the picture, Roswaal didn’t feel any anger or sadness, but rather felt more excited.

All this further proved that Ayanokouji was indeed capable of achieving his goals, placing Emilia on the throne and reviving Echidna.

And he didn’t use the Return by Death ability several times at all.

This made Roswaal admire Ayanokouji very much in his heart, and he still believed that the other party was still full of value.

Even if he was killed in the picture, Roswaal still thought that he needed Ayanokouji’s power.

With Ayanokouji’s help, he was able to fulfill his long-cherished wish.

“Now I know the details of Ayanokouji, so I won’t fail like in the video – I will definitely let Ayanokouji and I unite in the future.”

Roswaal was talking to Elsa, but it seemed like he was muttering to himself.

“Yes?”

Elsa always had a meaningful smile on her face and narrowed her eyes slightly.

“Don’t you know how to use my Master? I can only say that you are seeking your own death.”

In Elsa’s eyes, Roswaal was just a fly who ignored the pain and chose to fight the fire again.

❀❀❀

News of Roswaal’s brutal murder spread quickly, and the kingdom quickly dispatched enough manpower to investigate it—and Ayanokouji was the one in charge this time.

He led this investigation, and he had disguised himself at the scene, claiming that the killer was a member of the Witch Cult, possibly an unseen Sin Archbishop of Pride.

In the end, the nonexistent Sin Archbishop of Pride was identified as the murderer of this case.

No one thought that the Sin Archbishop of Pride didn’t exist at all.

In other words, no one thought that Ayanokouji was the Sin Archbishop of Pride.

No one could imagine that Ayanokouji was the one who killed Roswaal, because he was a honest and kind person in the public eye and had no motive to do so, and he had never left the royal capital before.

He also didn’t reveal Roswaal’s true face. It was useless, but it would affect Emilia’s camp’s reputation.

So he held a state funeral for Roswaal, and because he had no heirs, Annerose Miload, who was one of the branches of the family, inherited his territory.

Annerose was a loyal follower of Emilia, and she was only ten years old, so she was very easy to control.

Although Ram was very heartbroken, as time passed and with the attention of others, Ayanokouji believed that her emotions would gradually calm down.

Even if it didn’t work out, her hatred would spread to the Witch Cult and become a weapon for him to continue reducing the Witch Cult’s power.

Because Ram lost her horns, she originally needed Roswaal to replenish her magic every day, but now she has a magic crystal, she can also draw magic from it.

The Roswaal incident finally ended, and the ascension ceremony was about to arrive.

This was a very grand ceremony for the entire kingdom, and the entire royal capital had entered an atmosphere like a grand festival.

The citizens cheered and celebrated that Emilia would ascend the throne. The scene was completely different from a few months ago.

It was Ayanokouji who turned the situation around.

And in the palace, Emilia was sitting and making the final preparations. She was wearing a snow-white long dress, and the feather threads at the ends were like blooming feathers.

Her violet eyes were always fixed on Ayanokouji: “Kyotaka, I think you should come with me...”

“I’m really sorry Lia, I’m really not suitable for such crowded scenes.” Ayanokouji said slowly, “But please pay attention to your speech later. Have you memorized the speech I prepared for you?”

“Yes! It’s the one you prepared for me, Kiyotaka! I can recite it backwards!” Emilia said proudly.

“That’s amazing.” Ayanokouji nodded and shifted his gaze to the distance, “The elders of the Council of Wise Men over there seem to be looking for you. There must be something important they need to entrust to you.”

“Okay, I’ll get ready.” As Emilia spoke, she tiptoed slightly and kissed Ayanokouji gently. Then her cheeks immediately flushed red, and she quickly looked around to see if anyone else had seen their own scene, “I’ll go first!”

Then she ran towards the distance at a fast pace.

“That’s right.”

Not far away, Beatrice also walked over, her mouth slightly pouting, and there was a hint of jealousy in her eyes.

She held Ayanokouji’s hand, seemingly unwilling to let go: “We’ll meet there!”

“Okay.” Feeling the warmth in his palm, Ayanokouji nodded and followed Beatrice in a certain direction.

“Ayanokouji-sama!”

Arriving at the meeting place, and the others had been waiting here for a long time.

Otto greeted with two big black eyes, Garfiel and the other Ryuzu clone were chatting and laughing, Rem was saying something to Ram, Meili and Echidna were competing to see who could finish their snacks faster, while Rom and Frederica looked at him with smiles.

Crusch and Anastasia bowed respectfully to Ayanokouji, but Priscilla, who wasn’t a member of Emilia’s camp, also came uninvited.

“It can only be said that the old people in the Council of Wise Men are just ordinary people who lack vision.” Priscilla took out a fan, placed it in front of her, and said with a smile.

“Princess, if you say these words at this time, you will be beheaded.” Al suggested.

Priscilla didn’t pay attention, but narrowed her eyes and focused on Ayanokouji: “He is the only one who is a little special – but the throne and everything, I think it’s interesting. I don’t care, even if I don’t inherit the throne, it just shows that the vision of ordinary people is nothing more than this.”

“Princess, I still want to live longer.”

On the other side, members of the Guard Knights like Reinhard, Julius, and Felix also saluted Ayanokouji. After reconciling with his grandson, Wilhelm also returned to the ranks of the Knights.

Among the crowd, there was a girl wearing a dress, who looked a little strange, but the black braids already explained her identity.

“I didn’t expect this outfit to suit you, Elsa.” Ayanokouji said.

“Master is really good at praising me.” Elsa said with a smile, while leaning forward, her eyes full of ambiguity, “But is it okay to let people come to the palace with such arrogance?”

“Not many people here know your identity.” Ayanokouji said slowly, “And what if you temporarily abandon your identity as a Bowel Hunter and become my assistant.”

“This... is great!” The smile on Elsa’s face became even brighter.

“Master, the coronation ceremony is about to begin! Please get ready!”
