--- Chapter 178 ---

In a dimension protected by several layers of barriers, Cao Cao rested his spear on the shoulder and looked down on the daughter of Kyoto's leader.

"As expected... It's disgusting to see." He commented, which made Kunou grim a little.

Kunou is a clever girl. She knew her situation wasn't favorable, and being surrounded by dangerous Sacred Gears users was even worse. She knew Cao Cao, the descendant of Cao Cao himself, the current holder of True Longinus.

Besides Cao Cao, Kunou could see some other humans who "likely." were most likely descendants of famous heroes throughout history. They are also possessors of powerful Sacred Gears.

The first person Kunou currently sees is a black-haired young man with glasses who kidnaps her from the Teleportation Gate using his Sacred Gear. He wore this weird japanese-gakuran high school uniform with a mage robe.

"What? Are you mad because I kidnapped you?" Georg spoke calmly.

Kunou stayed quiet and glanced at the girl beside the glasses guy, seeing a beautiful young foreign woman with blonde hair and sky-blue eyes. Like Cao Cao, she wore a gakuran high school outfit with an armor or chest plate worn on top of it.

'What a weird fashion for a girl...' Kunou squinted her golden eyes because Goddess Huo and Sister Ying'er were thousand times more fashionable than this young foreign woman.

'Those eyes... Why did I feel so judged?' Jeanne covered her treasured chest plate. "Stop staring at me like that, Youkai-chan!"

"Ugh..." Kunou doesn't feel impressed by the nickname.

Changing her attention to other members, Kunou was startled by a two-meters tall man with a well-built body and shoulder-length gray hair. He wore the same uniform as his group but with greek-inspired armor on top.

"Hahaha~!" Heracles laughed at Kunou.

"Are you afraid, little monster? Right, be afraid of me. That's how it should be...! Trembles before The descendent of the great hero Heracles!"

Heracles's arrogant statement irked Kunou a little because Teacher Scathach could beat this guy without lifting a finger, probably erasing him from existence too.

'Dumb muscle guy, next.' Kunou breathed in, spotting an edgy-looking young man.

He has neck-length black hair styled in a bun and a pair of shades, wearing a gakuran uniform. No armor or robe, just a straight-up high school outfit.

"..." Kunou had never felt so disappointed in her life.

"I could feel darkness flow within me... The shadow." Connla mumbled to himself, leaving Kunou speechless.

And Not far from the edgy young man, a boy sat down with his book.

He is a short, dark-skinned young boy with gray-blue hair and purple eyes. Like other members of the Hero Faction, he wears the same damn outfit with a dark robe.

"Hmm... This Anti-Youkai monster isn't bad. I can make it easier to kill Youkai." Leonardo stared at the picture in the book. "The only downside is its low durability."

"I needed some references and information about the Blue-Eyed Dragon God. Hey, you there. Can you tell me his weaknesses?" He stared at Kunou indifferently.

Kunou felt a weird sensation all over her body. Something about this body is creeping her out.

"I won't tell you..." Kunou bares her fangs at Leonardo.

PA!

Leonardo threw his book at Kunou and said, "Then, Die."

Cao Cao sighed at this situation and commented, "Calm down, Leonardo. We couldn't kill her yet."

"Without the rune stones that our contractor needed to extract the power from another world. And Yasaka, we couldn't open the treasure gate."

"Yeah, that's true... Leo, I wouldn't let that small monster get into my head if I was you. HAHAHA~!" Heracles laughed, making Leonardo pout in annoyance.

Jeanne shook her head at this sight and said, "Still, why are they late? It's been a week since we planned this operation, but the backup hasn't arrived yet. Did they betray us?"

Georg fixed his glasses and replied, "I think they wanted to test us with this mission. No matter what, attacking Kyoto isn't so simple."

"We couldn't just run away, you know? We're bound to fight someone strong sooner or later."

"Indra is monitoring us..." Cao Cao closed his eyes. "Even though I couldn't sense his presence, this lingering sensation of being watched isn't just gut feeling."

"My spear is itching for real God's blood."

Kunou felt this weird sense of stupidity when hearing Cao Cao's bold statement. And As expected from the person who wields the strongest Sacred Gear, True Longinus.

His delusion has no bound.

Having a powerful weapon doesn't mean you are invincible. That was what Teacher Scathach taught her.

'I hope mother won't do reckless things, but with Young Master Huo here... There shouldn't be any problem from extracting enough information and adapting to this group's needs.' Kunou used Universal Breathing Technique to calm herself.

Panic has no use in this situation.

Kunou has to conceal her strength and use it to her advantage.

...

...

Nijo Castle.

Yasaka stood in a vast field, waiting for the heroes' faction to appear before her. She breathed in a few times and noticed her shadow blinked back at her.

She smiled inside because Young Master Huo was probably the most bright-minded person with this idea. The Nijo Castle might appear empty, but the shadow flickers slightly under the moonlight.

'I know he possessed some powerful creatures in his shadow, but this isn't just some anymore...' Yasaka sighed inwardly. 'His shadows are a literal army now.'

Sensing the disturbance in the space, Yasaka prepared herself and saw a group of humans with her daughter. She played a dramatic mother's role and shouted worriedly, "Kunou!"

Of course, she was still worried, but with Huo Yuhao. She is aware Kunou will be fine.

"Mother!" Kunou shouted back, trying to shake the barrier around her body. It wrapped her like tape and made every movement hard to do.

Cao Cao ignored Kunou's struggle and stepped forward, looking around to see if Yasaka had tried to do some tricks with this exchange. He couldn't sense any living beings within the Nijo Castle.

"I sensed no magical energy either. The castle is clean." The magician of the group reported to Cao Cao.

Nodding his head at Georg, Cao Cao returned his gaze to Yasaka again and said, "Well, it seems you are smart enough."

"However, the requirement isn't finished yet."

"Give us the Rune Stones."

Yasaka sighed and threw a spatial ring at Cao Cao, making the young man catch it with a smile.

Cao Cao had heard of this item for months and wanted to have one for himself. "So this is the spatial ring? Not bad." He commented while trying to connect his senses to it, allowing him to see a pile of Rune Stones inside the sub-dimension.

He didn't realize the Spatial Ring in his hand was a defective product. And the Rune Stones in the sub-dimension were "actually." created through Huo Yuhao's Tracing Skill.

"Give me back my daughter..." Yasaka's eyes glowed brightly.

Cao Cao smiled and replied, "Sure, sure... In exchange, you'll walk forward without doing anything. And received the seal we would place on you."

Yasaka walked forward without saying anything and gave Kunou a calm gaze. It was more than enough code to make the young nine-tailed fox realize something.

Kunou bobbed her head lightly, waiting for Yasaka to approach Cao Cao first.

"Goerg!" Cao Cao shouted with a grin.

"Dimension Lost: Balance Breaker!"

"Utopia of the Mist!"

Purple mist exploded and covered the whole area of Nijo Castle.

Cao Cao grabbed Yasaka by her hair, piercing something into her shoulder.

"Kuugh-! What are you..." Yasaka acted painfully. She could feel a throbbing sensation all over her body.

"That's the Berserk Formula. It contained the blood of Yamata-no-Orochi and Curse of the Distant Witch, triggering animalistic instinct within monsters like you." Cao Cao kicked Yasaka away.

SWOOSH! BAM!

Yasaka landed several meters away and coughed profusely.

"Fox FIRE!" Kunou's body was illuminated with bright flame, burning the area rapidly.

BOOM!

Cao Cao frowned and watched the golden flash move past him. Kunou arrived at Yasaka's side in a blink of an eye.

Something was burning.

Cao Cao looked down and saw the sleeve of his gakuran uniform get slightly charred. This uniform is tailor-made and very durable, but Kunou burned it.

"Oh no..." Jeanne said in horror.

"You MONSTER BITCH!" Cao Cao roared furiously.

Yasaka watched a white light travel through the air and used Youjutsu Spells to create a strong barrier.

BOOOOOM!!

Cough!

'My body is getting hotter and hotter. It feels ominous. I'll start losing control at this point.' Yasaka wiped the blood from her lips.

"Kunou, get behind me."

"Y-Yes, Mother." Kunou clenched her hand because Yasaka was hurt.

Cao Cao summoned the True Longinus and aimed the spear at the mother-daughter nine-tailed foxes. He has no qualms about killing monsters like them.

"Die..."

"Even If I become mad, I'll protect my daughter." Yasaka was about to transform into her nine-tailed fox form and felt a tap on her shoulder.

"Go rest." Huo Yuhao's voice entered her ears, causing a wave of relief inside Yasaka's body. The Beserk Formula was "instantly." cleansed by this warm yet pure energy.

"You are..." Cao Cao looked at the new person who appeared out of nowhere. "Blue-Eyed Dragon God."

"You're alive, after all."

Huo Yuhao smiled and returned, "Not quite a gentleman, I have to say."

"Threatening a mother with her daughter and even wanting to kill them off the burnt sleeve. You look like a bratty child who didn't graduate school, Cao Cao."

"That spear, though."

"Not a bad weapon, to be honest..."

"However..." Huo Yuhao pulled the Darkest Star's Halberd: Dosa from his inventory. "It's nothing against me."

"As for your question... Of course, I'm alive."

"Dying is not even a word in my dictionary."

"I don't know about yours."

Cao Cao clenched the True Longinus and chanted, "O Spear. The true Holy Spear which pierces through God."

"Suck the ambition of the King of Domination sleeping within me and pierce through the gap of blessing and destruction."

"You. Announce the will, and turn it into a glow."

"Wipe my enemy from existence! TRUTH IDEA!"

A bright golden-white light expanded from True Longinus and covered the whole castle in milliseconds. Its heat induced extreme pain to anyone below it.

'Cheap trick.' Huo Yuhao thought while resting the Darkest Star's Halberd: Dosa on his shoulder.

As the destructive light powered by the Dying Will of the God of the Bible himself descended, Cao Cao grinned in anticipation and wanted the Blue-Eyed Dragon God to disappear from this world.

"Flowing Waves: Great Tsunami."

SWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!

Black waves appeared and shocked the area in chaos, rotating continuously into this menacing pillar.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

Cao Cao's Truth Idea was "abruptly." pushed away, exploding the sky and causing a loud shockwave that shook the whole of Kyoto.

Everyone was speechless.

It was out of their expectation.

The "strongest." attack of True Longinus was "literally." repelled.

"..." Cao Cao stared at Huo Yuhao mindlessly.

Huo Yuhao yawned casually, showing no worry about repelling such a mind-blowing attack.

"Try again, Kid."
