Chapter 402 Waiting for that day to come

"So that's what's going on?"

After experiencing Agurola's short life firsthand, Aize finally understood why things had turned out the way they were.

It is precisely because of my existence, because I chose to be close to the important components of this world, that is, Leviathan's life background, that the butterfly effect occurred, causing things to develop into what they are now.

Although he had never met Agurula, when the two of them resonated with magic outside Gengami Island and woke up together, the future changed irreversibly.

As a result, Akatsuki Kojou did not have an entanglement with Agurola as in the original work, and eventually became the fourth true ancestor. Instead, it was Akatsuki Nagisa, the miko who first came into contact with Agurola and broke Agurola's slumber and seal in disguise, who had various love-hate disputes with him, and eventually absorbed Agurola, who died as the fourth true ancestor, into her body, becoming the fourth true ancestor in the eyes of others.

"In fact, Nagisa didn't become the Fourth True Ancestor. She just became the vessel of the Fourth True Ancestor who had already died."

"The real fourth true ancestor is still Agurora, not Akatsuki Nagisa."

"The Lion King Agency may know this, so they sent me here as a monitor."

In the original work, the fourth true ancestor is Akatsuki Kojou, and the Lion King Agency also sent a monitor. The apparent purpose is the same as what Aize got, which is to monitor the behavior of the fourth true ancestor. If it is found to be a dangerous existence, it will be eliminated.

But in fact, the Lion King Agency sent monitors to help the Fourth True Ancestor awaken in order to prevent the Fourth True Ancestor's range of action from exceeding their expectations and to secretly use it to solve certain problems.

Because he was a hastily created Fourth True Ancestor, and was just an ordinary human high school student before becoming the Fourth True Ancestor, Akatsuki Kojou in the original work was not recognized by the familiars in his body at the beginning, and was unable to control these familiars, and his power was extremely unstable.

In order for Akatsuki Kojou to gain recognition from his familiar and control over it, the Lion King Agency deliberately sent some psychics to him.

As long as he sucks the blood of an excellent psychic, the beast in Akatsuki Kojo's body will be satisfied and obey his call.

This is the true meaning of the existence of the monitor.

"But now, the one who became the fourth true ancestor is Aguru. She is the container of the fourth true ancestor's beast and can drive the beast."

"Even if a medium is needed, the presence of a high-level medium like Akatsuki Nagisa can satisfy the appetites of all the familiars."

"The Lion King Organization didn't need to send a medium, but they sent me here. Their purpose is to use the special properties similar to those between Aguru and me to try to stimulate Aguru and awaken the fourth true ancestor sleeping in Nagisa Akatsuki, just like four years ago."

Therefore, Aize felt that the Lion King Organization must know that the real Fourth True Ancestor was not Akatsuki Nagisa, but Agurora.

As for Akatsuki Nagisa, her role from the beginning to the end has been the vessel of the Fourth True Ancestor, but she has already lost her memory of this and even forgot the existence of Agurora. Her excellent miko abilities are also all lost by her being a vessel.

The reason why Akatsuki Nagisa is afraid of the appearance of demons is because the self-protection consciousness in her body is at work, causing her to suffer from demon phobia.

"Looking at Akatsuki Kojou's appearance, he must have lost his memories of the Flame Feast and Agurora just like Akatsuki Nagisa."

“What’s worse, they have completely lost their memories of when they were in Gozo.”

"This should be caused by the Flame Feast or the logic bomb, right?"

The reason why the Fourth True Ancestor is called a fantasy vampire is because he possesses the ability to extract memories and can replenish the necessary magic power by devouring the memories of others.

During the Flame Banquet, this ability enveloped the entire 560,000 people of Gengami Island, causing them to lose their memories before and after the Flame Banquet, including the Akatsuki brothers and sisters, who were all affected by this ability.

The existence of logic bombs is to maintain confidentiality. The combination of the two caused the memories related to the Fourth True Ancestor to disappear from everyone's mind.

"It seems that you have figured everything out."

When this voice reached Aize's ears, Aize's consciousness had already returned to his body and he opened his eyes.

Athena looked at him with her bright eyes, as if she saw something.

"Yeah, let's just say I've figured it out now." Aize rubbed his temple and said, "I didn't expect that my arrival would cause such a change."

"You God-killers are the trendsetters of the times. No matter where you are, you will always cause a vortex of chaos." Athena looked at Aize with a meaningful look and said, "Not to mention, you are hundreds of times more powerful and special than ordinary God-killers."

As she said this, Athena turned her gaze towards Nagisa Akatsuki who was lying on the bed.

"What are you going to do with this girl?" Athena said nonchalantly, "If you leave her alone, she will die."

Aize fell silent.

Indeed, Nagisa Akatsuki's current condition is not very good.

Not only did she lose her ability as a shrine maiden, she also developed a phobia of demons and her physical weakness was a persistent problem.

Moreover, even if she used all her power as a miko and was willing to lose her ability to protect Agurola, she was destined not to be able to protect her for too long.

The power of the Fourth True Ancestor was ultimately too great for her to bear. Even though Agurola was the Fourth True Ancestor, she was dead after all, her body was destroyed, and only her soul remained.

Without a physical body, Agurola would not be able to possess the infinite magic power of the vampire progenitor, and would not be able to raise and summon his followers.

It can be said that the existence of Agurula requires Akatsuki Nagisa to expend her own energy to maintain it all the time. If she summons her familiar and uses the power of the fourth true ancestor, it will be an extremely heavy burden for Akatsuki Nagisa.

Don't forget that the existence of a familiar will drain your life force.

Except for vampires who possess infinite negative vitality, once the rest of the people summon their companions, their life force will be sucked away and they will die in an instant.

The reason why Nagisa Akatsuki was able to survive was thanks to Agurara's efforts to restrain herself and cooperate as much as possible, as well as her own excellent relationship.

But if they continue like this, both of them will still die, it's just a matter of time.

"The Lion King Agency is really well calculated." Aize said expressionlessly: "Let me contact Nagisa Akatsuki and awaken Aguru. I am afraid they also want to use my own characteristics as a container to become the new container of the Fourth True Ancestor after Nagisa Akatsuki dies, or simply become the new Fourth True Ancestor?"

If it was Aize who could even contain Leviathan, then he could easily contain the power of the Fourth True Ancestor.

By then, possessing the power of the world's strongest vampire and the world's strongest magical beast, he will become the strongest trump card in the hands of the Lion King Organization. Even if he is hostile to the three night empires and confronts the three true ancestors at the same time, he will not be at a disadvantage.

If things really turn out like that, the Lion King Matchmaking Agency will definitely send a new monitor to introduce him to a large number of psychics, and develop bonds with them, and finally tie him completely to the Lion King Agency's ship.

This is an open conspiracy. Although it is a calculation, the benefits are all reaped by Aize himself. Besides, he was raised by the Lion King Agency. The Lion King Agency is his in-laws. Are they still afraid that he will not help his own people?

Even if they don't help, using his tiger skin can allow the Lion King Agency to free up its hands and have more say and influence in the international arena.

In short, this is a win-win situation for everyone. The only bad thing is Akatsuki Nagisa, who has become a complete victim.

"Humans are always like this, they pursue and desire many things."

"Wealth, power, status...these are the things that lure them forward."

"Even the warriors who were once blessed by me, aren't they fighting for these things?"

Athena narrowed her eyes, looked at Aize, and suddenly smiled.

"Then, my master, what would you do about a high-ranking being who can enslave even the most powerful queen of the Trinity?"

“The human world that now fills the earth is…noisy, ugly, and filthy, and unpleasant to the point of being unbearable.”

"How about you and I clean up all this filth together and destroy the land that has been flooded with humans?"

As she spoke, Athena reached out her hand and stroked Aize's face as if she were caressing the most precious treasure in the world.

"Don't you think that this is the duty of a god, a higher being?"

The goddess of the underworld, who is in charge of death, used her sweet voice to bewitch her and cause her worldview to collapse. She then realized how big the world is and what is outside the world. She was captured unknowingly and became a warrior and man who fascinated her.

“Bang!”

However, Aize slapped Athena's hand away expressionlessly and said something.

"Don't forget, I am also the filthy human being in your mouth."

Hearing this, Athena shook her head.

"You have long since transcended the realm of humanity, and even the realm of life, becoming a being higher than gods."

"Even if you have always considered yourself a human being, your essence is no longer human."

"From the moment you entered that library and became the administrator there, there is no longer any being nobler or superior than you."

"Even if you deny it, it's useless."

Athena stood up and looked at Aize with shining eyes.

"But it doesn't matter. You and I are both eternal beings. Even if you don't realize this now and are unwilling to admit it, what about hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of years later?"

"Sooner or later, you will realize your own uniqueness and the fact that you are superior to other human beings."

"I will wait until that day comes."

Leaving these words, Athena transformed into the Gorgon Stone and flew back into Aize's body.

Aize didn't respond, he just looked at Nagisa Akane lying on the bed, and didn't say anything for a long time...
