Text: “Pepe! Clervy! I’m done being human!”
After defeating the previous Servant, defecting from the House of Hearth, and abandoning his scarred human body, the demi-human Maine Coon de...
Chapter 96 A Big Scene, First Encounter with the Naxi Today...
"……What?"
"I said I am the king, are you deaf?"
Mainkuhn calmly met the gazes of the group of terrified scholars.
Honestly, he didn't understand why things had turned out this way.
[Neither Pepe nor Fucarus are willing to help me, and I can't think of a way to be hated myself. Isn't it normal to ask the wise gods for advice when facing difficulties?]
[After all, Sumeru and Fontaine weren't far apart, so running at full speed would get them there quickly, and once they arrived in Sumeru...]
Mainkuhn began to recall that he vaguely remembered asking a blond young student about the location of the gods.
"Where is the leader of Sumeru?"
[This is a perfectly normal question. Gods are the leaders of humanity, and Furna is the head of Fontaine.]
"Leader?"
The young man paused for a moment, but quickly and enthusiastically pointed out the way to the Church House:
"Today is the day the sages hold a meeting. You can find whichever leader you're looking for here!"
"Thank you."
[He exuded no air of deceit, nor any malice; so far, there have been no issues.]
Mainkun still remembers bypassing the guards at the entrance, entering the Papacy, entering the Palace of Wisdom, calmly taking the elevator, and following the crowd into the Great Sage's office.
"Child from another country, I don't think I've seen you before?"
Although passersby looked at him with puzzled eyes, only one scholar actually asked him a question.
“Those who seek wisdom are as numerous as grains of sand; how can you possibly see them all?”
Mainkun is telling the truth.
He was just an ordinary cat who came to ask a question.
The other person suddenly smiled, sighed silently, and clapped encouragingly.
"Good answer. Young people should be down-to-earth, not seeking fame or extravagance. Child, please continue to focus on your studies and maintain this purity."
"?"
[This little incident is barely considered normal; there are always many strange people out there.]
[After that, I remember...]
The half-demon with erect ears stood in the shadows, waiting until the empty office was filled with all sorts of humans, armed guards stood cautiously at the door, and the white-haired scholar stepped forward:
"Next, I, Hazard, will announce several important reforms..."
But the Grass God did not appear.
Mainkuhn: "?"
Where is God? Why isn't Funinna on time yet?
If we wait any longer, we'll miss the time to get home and cook.
Why don't we go out and find this belated deity...?
"Hazard! You old bastard!"
Mainkuhn was still pondering when he saw the scholar who had spoken to him earlier suddenly fly into a rage, take off his hat, and throw it violently to the ground.
"I disagree with your deletion of Narcida-related search entries in the Void Terminal! I also disagree with your revision of textbooks about the New Gods from the past five hundred years! This is a desecration of history! A betrayal of wisdom! And your decision to establish diplomatic relations with Winter Solstice is utterly foolish!"
"Fool! This is the most suitable development path for Sumeru, and you have no right to question it!"
"?"
Mainkun didn't understand a word of their arguing about the void or Nasita. He only sensed that it seemed to be related to the gods, so he patiently stayed with them for another ten minutes, still feeling dizzy.
"Enough, Gülesh!"
Hazard lost his patience, his voice turning cold.
"Don't you want to work here anymore?!"
This was a threat; Mainkuhn sensed the killing intent.
But Gülech burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! That's exactly what I was thinking! The Faculty of Education is rotten. I want to retire early and enjoy my grandchildren, so as not to get my new clothes stained with mud!"
Mainkun watched in bewilderment as the scholar turned and walked away.
The office fell silent, save for Hazard's heavy breathing and the quiet of many others who seemed lost in thought.
"Hmph, I need to choose a new, obedient sage from the Sulun school."
Mainkun watched as Hazard irritably touched the leaf-shaped device on his ear that emitted a faint green light—the Void Terminal.
"The official documents have all been sent to you."
Mainkuhn: "..."
The old man was handing over his work as if he were an ordinary member of the tribunal.
"But--"
"Ahem!...Great Sage, we have no objections."
The scholars below also mostly behaved in a gentle and obedient manner.
"very good."
But Mainkuhn couldn't understand why there was such a strong sense of malice in the air when he saw him put his hand to his ear again.
"Everything is for wisdom and truth."
Mainkun really hasn't gotten out of control in a long time.
After all, the requirements to trigger his loss of control are very high; excessive malice and ongoing evil deeds are both indispensable, and it can usually only be triggered at a crime scene.
But now, where are the people who were mistreated? Where are the people who were harmed? Where is the victim?
There's no one bleeding, no one crying, everything's fine, and no one's asking for help.
The loss of control came without warning, yet with the force of a thunderbolt. A gray shadow tore through the air, and Mainkuh leaped out of the shadows. His right hand, adorned with black spikes, carried a terrifying power capable of tearing through steel. With precision, ruthlessness, and without any frills, he smashed Mainkuh's head, pulled out his brain, and slammed it between the hardcover books!
This was definitely Mainkuhn's most bewildering killing spree!
"Monster! Help! Help! You thirty-man gang, are you all eating shit?! Seize him now!"
"Anyone who wants to compete with me for the leadership position, feel free to step forward."
With a casual flick of his brush, he shattered the knee of the guard as he advanced. Mainkuen sat on the oversized throne, utterly perplexed. In the end, he could only disdainfully pluck a green leaf from the old man's tattered head and place it by his ear.
He wanted to repeat the sage's last actions before his death to figure out what was going on with this inexplicable loss of control.
Press down gently with your finger.
The blue-green screen suddenly unfolded, filling Mainkuhn's entire field of vision.
"?"
*Buzz—Buzz—System restart…Highest privileges confirmed…*
"Welcome back, Sage King. Void Zero is at your service."
A line of text popped up silently.
The transmission of "The Century-Long Plan to De-emphasize Mediocrity V7.2" to the sages of the Pure Land School has been hindered (Target: Gülesh is offline).
What is it?
The instruction to revise history textbooks (delete the item related to Nasita) has not been sent.
The "Preliminary Framework for Medical Technology Cooperation in Winter (Top Secret)" is awaiting final confirmation.
'...'
So many words, disgusting, vomit.
Mainkuhn had never seen such high technology before. The change in his field of vision made the cat's keen eyesight very uncomfortable. He was like a cat with a plastic bag over its head, shaking his head and leaning back, trying to reach out his paw to pat the screen in his eyes but he couldn't get a pat.
So where is the evil deed? Who was actually hurt? I can't understand it. Ugh, Peipei, save me!
"Quick! He's not familiar with the terminal, seize this opportunity and stab him to death!"
Mainkun casually picked up the Great Sage's body and threw the attacker several meters away. At the same time, he listlessly raised his head and looked at the terrified crowd.
"You don't even have a single person with the Eye of God, who are you looking down on... Huh?"
In the instant he looked up, he suddenly understood the true meaning of the void.
"Buzzing - Scanning"
A blue circle was placed over the face of the person in front of them.
"Target confirmed... Identity: Son of a sage from the Minglun School, Alignment: Your side, Your notes: This boy used his status to rape three classmates. Evidence is complete and readily available for blackmail and use. No need to worry about him betraying you."
"Oh ho ho."
Mainkuhn was still unclear about what possessing the highest terminal of the Great Sage meant. The monopoly of knowledge, the power to define the truth of Mount Sumeru, and the manipulation of the will of the people were all too complicated. All the cat knew was that this little gadget that connected to the World Tree was incredibly useful!
All the secrets of Sumeru City were open to him; he could hit whomever he wanted, scare whomever he wanted, and was not afraid of wrongly accusing innocent people.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Bathed in a sea of horrified gazes, the boy with erect ears slowly rose from his throne, his golden vertical pupils sweeping over the faces below, which were distorted even more by his laughter.
"You guys make me very unhappy."
Actually, it felt amazing. Waves of fear surged through his body; Mainkun had never felt this good before.
"you."
"What, what are you doing!?"
The Minglun School scholar who was accused collapsed to his knees.
"Spare me—"
"You just called me a monster, didn't you?"
"I'm so sorry—Aaaaaaah!"
Blood splattered onto the face of the scholar next to him.
"Ha, ho ha!"
His face was ashen, his teeth were chattering, and his whole body was trembling uncontrollably; he had an urge to prostrate himself on his knees.
He saw the boy, whose ears barely reached his shoulder, looking over, his golden eyes filled with data.
"Well--!"
The scholar was so stared at that he couldn't move.
I'm going to die—!
He was killed by a monster!
I admire Guleš so much; I should have followed in his footsteps!
But the skinny monster stared at him for a long time, and finally shook the tuft of hair on the tip of its ear in dissatisfaction.
"Get out."
There was a groaning sound from beneath my feet:
"Oh no, mine, mine—"
“Take this eunuch with you.”
"Ah...ah?!"
Overjoyed at being granted a pardon, the young man, who had been doing good deeds in the past, finally received his retribution. He scrambled down the elevator, dragging his bloodied companion as they screamed in the Wisdom Palace.
"Help—!"
"What happened? Oh dear! What's wrong? His pelvis... it's been crushed?"
The great sage's office was too high up, so the screams couldn't reach the mortal realm.
"No, no, never mind him, there is, there is..."
The scholar grabbed the visitor's shoulder, but his hand trembled, and he couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
"What is it? Tell me!"
The other party was quite frightened by his appearance.
"There's a tyrant! There's a tyrant! Aaaaaah!"
This earth-shattering scream once represented a decline in civilization in the modern history of Sumeru, a degeneration from an enlightened system of wise advisors to a brutal one-man dictatorship.
"All of the high-ranking officials of Sumeru have been taken hostage! Rescue them quickly!"
"What the heck?"
Jules, who had just picked up his "grandson" from school and was on his way home, heard this and hugged his beloved student tightly in alarm:
"Who will handle my retirement paperwork? I just promised Xiao Saino that I would take him on a trip after I retire!"
"Teacher, you were the one who insisted I go out with you to play. I'd much rather study in the classroom... What are you waiting for! Contact the doctor, contact the 30-person disciplinary committee, prepare to rescue him!"
After the white-haired, dark-skinned child issued the order in a fierce manner, he was still not at ease:
"I'll go help too... Um, hey! Teacher!"
"What help are you? This little thing isn't even enough for one bite of their food."
Gülesh simply picked him up around the waist and carried him away.
"If a group of thirty can handle it, there's no need for you. If they can't, you'll just be a waste of time... Get out of here, get out of here."
Gülesh is right.
Wave after wave of people were easily driven away by the gray-haired youth. He was even reluctant to take a step himself, simply sitting lazily on his throne, casually throwing books off the table, which created a huge gust of wind and continuous screams.
"What exactly do you want to do..."
Amidst the mess, scholars, like mandarin ducks protecting their heads, huddled in a corner, desperately tried to gather courage and wisdom, attempting to decipher every word uttered by the half-demon.
"Are you serious about becoming the king of Sumeru...?"
"certainly."
Of course not.
The half-demon was spouting nonsense, and human speculation was doomed to fail.
The title of king was just a fabricated excuse to exploit fear; it's just that your heads happened to die.
When the grass god comes out to beat me, I'll run home immediately.
After all, I probably can't defeat a powerful god.
...Speaking of which, why hasn't the God of Wisdom come to drive me away yet?
The effects of the medicine are almost worn off.
Where is your god?
That's what he thought, and that's what he asked the group of mandarin ducks.
"..."
Complex emotions suddenly surged in the space.
Mainkuhn took two breaths and found that he couldn't inhale it into his body, so he realized that the emotion was not directed at him. He tapped the table with his finger in confusion.
"Answer me, don't make me repeat myself."
"..."
Another wave of complex emotions, along with desperate sobs, finally prompted a man dressed as a sage to timidly raise his hand.
"I brought her here, please let us go..."
"Huh?" What?
"No, no! I was greedy. Please, just let me go!!"
"?...Fine, get lost."
baffling.
Mainkun waited and waited, and finally, before the effects of the drug wore off, he saw the elevator rise again. A small, short, white figure was hurriedly escorted by the adults, roughly pushed into the Great Sage's office and thrown down, and then hurriedly operated the elevator to run away.
"Wow."
The child was pushed and stumbled a few steps before managing to stand up straight, avoiding falling directly onto the blood-stained floor.
"What are you?"
Mainkuhn twirled the pen in his hand with his fingernail and asked her while sitting down.
"A lamb offered to the devil?"
No, that's not it.
Naxi Da looked up, revealing eyes as fresh as new leaves.
"I am a god."
"To save one's own people."
-----------------------
The author says: Sumeru is truly a magical land.
Not only does she lack a stable demon-god level combat force, but she also doesn't have a proper army.
A group of thirty people, I think that's outsourcing...
