"I understand."
That was a voice filled with despair, uttered from the woman's mouth.
Shakugan Gongsun, this woman had perhaps experienced countless humiliations and deceptions, but this time, due to the disparity in strength, it was the first time she had to make such a decision.
After all, even in the eyes of Gilgamesh and Athena, no matter how insignificant she seemed, she was still the highest-ranking witch. In the Tokyo branch of the 'Official History Compilation Committee', she was absolutely authoritative.
However, this time it was an absolute peril.
Although she didn't know if the weapon in the opponent's hand could be released again, simply such a threat was enough to make her hesitate.
There was no other way. Perhaps she could escape Liliana's pursuit, but the other four would definitely die here.
Amakusa Touma didn't care, but those three represented the Seikyouin, Rengoku, and Kujo families. Their combined influence almost covered the entire island nation.
Regardless, even if any one of them died, it would lead to huge changes in the island nation's government, and it was not impossible for it to even split.
Plus, Gilgamesh's unfathomable strength, and the feat of slaying a disobedient god.
So, she could only choose a pragmatic approach.
Shakugan Gongsun seemed to calm herself down, letting out a long sigh.
"We, the 'Official History Compilation Committee', Tokyo branch, are willing to submit under the banner of His Majesty, the Hero King."
She said this, her voice tinged with faint sorrow.
And a hint of hidden resentment.
"You can't represent the entire 'Official History Compilation Committee', can you?"
Liliana immediately asked, raising an eyebrow.
"That's right, those other branches will probably have to discuss it amongst themselves."
These words, spoken from Shakugan Gongsun's mouth, clearly carried a hint of mockery.
"And I am merely the director of the Tokyo branch, so I cannot make such a decision at all."
Shakugan Gongsun deliberately ignored her identity as the head of the Shakugan Gongsun family, the largest OnmyĹŤdĹŤ family in Japan.
Hearing these words, Liliana couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Then, thank you very much for your hospitality."
She said with a hint of sarcasm, then unhesitatingly put away her greatsword.
Since that was the case, there was no need to continue fighting.
The young girl thought so, then slightly suppressed the anger in her eyes, and left in a hurry.
The 'Official History Compilation Committee' throughout the island nation had dozens of branches, and the location of the headquarters was hidden.
So, one by one, they had to be crushed.
At this moment, Liliana carried this determination.
"Truly naive."
Amakusa Touma saw Liliana leave and couldn't help but say faintly.
His words carried a trace of fear towards Liliana's strength.
"That's right, but she is indeed very strong."
The old woman, who was the head of the Seikyouin family, couldn't help but sigh. She casually cast a spell to help Kanba Kujo, who was still rolling on the ground, recover from his injuries.
Such injuries were meaningless to them. Even if they were seemingly serious, he could recover to his original state through healing.
The young girl had also known this, which was why she wielded Durandal.
"Deliver this message to the Duke. The God Slayer is indeed not on the same level as us."
That was a sigh of loss, uttered from the mouth of the rigid middle-aged man.
"Next is the war of 'The Disobedient Susanoo'. We mortals should quietly wait for the Duke to bring victory."
Shakugan Gongsun replied like this, then no longer looked at the four disheveled people, but walked towards a deeper part of the palace.
Next, she was going to contact Youmian, to contact the largest dependent of that island nation.
At this moment, near Mount Lu.
A young girl named Erica was leisurely strolling in this remote town.
It wasn't that she had forgotten Gilgamesh's order, or anything else.
It was simply because the person she was here to meet had not yet appeared before her eyes.
"It really is remote."
Erica couldn't help but sigh softly. In such a small town, finding a famous bar was indeed not very realistic.
"Then, your way of hospitality is a bit poor, Mr. Lu Yinghua?"
The young girl faintly turned her head. Behind her, a man had already silently appeared.
Lu Yinghua, also known as the true manager of the so-called Nine Hell Sect, was precisely the target Erica was visiting.
"No, sorry."
That was a tone carrying a hint of tenderness, spoken from the mouth of this seemingly refined person.
However, what followed was an absolutely unexpected malicious retort.
"I don't wish to be lectured by a young lady of such poor character, terrible personality, and immaturity."
He said these words with a smile, his words carrying an inexplicable malice.
"...Is this our first meeting?"
Erica couldn't help but ask. She had just mildly complained, but Lu Yinghua's reaction was so violent that it made her suspicious.
"That's right, first meeting, Miss Erica."
Indeed, Lu Yinghua said this, but a flicker of malice, unmasked, gleamed in his handsome face.
Perhaps those men's desire for her, Erica had long grown accustomed to it, but the inexplicable sense of repulsion that Lu Yinghua brought this time was truly something else.
"Then, did we have some conflict before?"
For the sake of so-called lady-like etiquette, Erica still couldn't bring herself to retort maliciously, so she merely asked faintly.
"No, I just detest women who show off like you. Please be brief. My master is waiting for me to report back."
Lu Yinghua said this, his words carrying immense disgust.
Indeed, for this man, he had been subjected to countless (physical) beatings by Luo Cuilian since childhood, either under the guise of training his muscles and bones, or honing his will, sometimes even without any reason. Thus, even if he was pursued by women, this guy utterly detested all beautiful, arrogant women from the bottom of his bones.
As for his current anger towards Erica, it was perfectly understandable.
"He's truly an inexplicably strange fellow!"
Erica couldn't help but sigh. She didn't know any of this intelligence. However, to complete Gilgamesh's order, she still suppressed her anger and slowly stated Gilgamesh's order to Lu Yinghua.
Listening to the young girl's clear voice, a trace of disgust appeared on Lu Yinghua's face.
However, even when he heard about "The Disobedient Susanoo" in Youmian and "The Disobedient Sun Wukong" in the South Heaven Palace, he didn't show the slightest surprise or shock.
It was as if he had known all of this long ago.
