After beating up the idiot, Shizuku sealed him away and continued to take Esmaria and Tamamonomae to the theme park. Esmaria was a little worried at first, but kids are kids, and after Shizuku took her to a few rides, Esmaria put the matter behind her and continued to enjoy the fun of the ride happily.
The three of them then stayed in the hotel for one night before returning to New York full of energy.
"Where the hell did you guys go?!"
However, as soon as Shizuku and the others returned, they saw Rosette rushing over and almost yelling at them.
"We went to Disneyland for a spin, what happened? What happened?"
Shizuku didn't care about Rosette's temper. She shrugged her shoulders and answered Rosette's question casually, then looked around curiously. She saw wounded soldiers with bandages everywhere, looking like they had just participated in a war.
Hearing Shizuku's question, Rosette was speechless for a while, and then she told Shizuku about yesterday's actions - although they followed the plan and joined forces with Duke Defoe to attack that stronghold.
But what Rosette and the others didn't expect was that it was just a trap. In fact, Ian had anticipated this, so he used the same trick against them and used several of his subordinates to tie down the enemy, while he took the opportunity to try to capture the last earth agent, Esmaria.
Ain's subordinates were indeed very powerful. After all, they had worked together to kill more than 400 million demons in the demon world, so their fighting power should not be underestimated. Fortunately, Rosette's lifespan had been supplemented by Shizuku, so she directly lifted the seal of Chrono. In the end, Chrono and Duke Diver worked together to completely eliminate the criminals.
Of course, these sinners naturally told this secret before they died. Everyone who learned about Ain's plan was shocked and hurried back, but there was no sign of Shizuku and Esmaria, which made them anxious like ants on a hot pan.
As for the wounded, they were people from the Makdala Monastery who were affected by the battle yesterday. Although it’s hard to say it directly, the gap between mortals and demons is really huge, and they are lucky to be able to come back alive.
"I thought something had happened."
After listening to Rosette's words, Shizuku couldn't help but yawn.
"It's just a small matter, just give me a call and let me know... Oh, by the way, I forgot to leave you my cell phone number."
Seeing Rosette's dissatisfied eyes, Shizuku remembered that when she met her before, she was only concerned with restoring Rosette's lifespan and had forgotten about this matter.
"Anyway, I'm glad you're okay."
Seeing that Esmaria was fine, Rosette breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she was her savior. If she hadn't been so anxious just now, she wouldn't have rushed over directly.
"But...you didn't meet Ain?"
At this moment, Duke Difo also came over and asked in confusion.
"That man will never give up until he achieves his goal."
"Nonsense, of course I encountered it."
Shizuku snorted coldly, then swung her right hand. The next moment, Ein, who was tightly tied up by the Heaven's Chain, appeared out of thin air and fell heavily to the ground.
Everyone was shocked to see this scene.
"Ain?!"
“This…what on earth is going on?”
Looking at the white-haired man at her feet, Rosette was stunned and could not believe it. In her memory, Ian was a very domineering, terrifying, cunning and evil demon. He had a powerful force that was almost unmatched, and his evil mind was planning unimaginable conspiracies. Every time he appeared, he had a smug smile that showed he was in control of everything...
But now, looking at his bruised face and nose, he looks just like a gangster and is about to be beaten into a pig's head!
"We were having a great time at Disneyland yesterday, and this guy came out and started talking nonsense, and I beat the shit out of him, that's all."
Shizuku spread her hands and briefly described what happened to her and others yesterday in one sentence.
After hearing this answer, everyone fell silent.
"Although I already know that you possess unimaginable power, but..."
As he spoke, Duke Diver pulled out his beard again.
"I never thought I would see this man in such a state of disgrace."
"... Chrono, are you sure he's really Iin? He can't be a fake..."
"...I am quite sure..."
When he said this, Chrono's expression was also complicated. He had fought against the demon world with Ion and started a revolution. It could be said that he was the one who knew Ion the most. But even Chrono had never seen Ion in such a miserable state. He even thought that this man would die heroically even if he died. He would not be like this now, lying on the ground like a dead dog, motionless.
Seeing everyone dumbfounded, Shizuku didn't care. She took a vase of flowers from the windowsill and poured it on Ain's face. Water flowed out of the vase and hit Ain's face. Seeing this, everyone was speechless - but they didn't know what to say.
“Woo…”
After Shizuku poured a glass of water, Ain finally regained consciousness. He groaned and slowly opened his eyes. He looked at the people in front of him. Then, Ain smiled bitterly.
"I never thought that I would..."
However, before he could finish his words, Shizuku punched him in the face again.
"Did I ask you to speak?"
"Bang!"
"Did I ask you to speak?"
"Bang!"
"You're still not being honest, are you? I'm going to beat you to death!"
"Bang!!"
Everyone was stunned as they watched Shizuku punching Ein in front of them. After a moment, Rosette reacted and hurriedly went up to stop Shizuku.
"Wait, wait a minute, Ms. Kasugano, don't beat him to death!"
"What's the point of keeping this kind of scourge?"
Hearing Rosette's dissuasion, Shizuku glanced at her.
"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, I would have killed him right then and there, so I wouldn't have to waste time bringing him back."
"My brother is still in his hands!"
Rosette also spoke hurriedly at this moment.
"I still need to get clues about my brother from him!"
"Oh, you don't have to worry about that."
Hearing Rosette's words, Shizuku reached out and patted her hand.
"This guy is very smooth-talking. I don't believe a word he says."
"Yes, Rosette, maybe it's a trap..."
"It doesn't matter even if it's dangerous... As long as I can get some clues about my brother, I..."
"Wait a minute, I'm not finished yet."
Seeing that Rosette was about to get excited again, Shizuku hurriedly stopped her.
"I told you, this guy's words are unreliable, but there are some solutions."
"Do you have any solution?"
Hearing what Shizuku said, Duke Diver looked at her curiously, while Shizuku sneered and nodded.
"Of course—dead men never lie!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shizuku suddenly raised her right hand, and soon, Frostmourne appeared out of thin air in her hand. Then Shizuku clenched the greatsword and stabbed Iin on the ground. Before Rosette could stop him, Frostmourne pierced Iin's chest and nailed him to the ground. Then, a cold wind blew up, and everyone saw Iin's body quickly freeze, and then it exploded with a "bang", turning into countless ice crystals.
The tiny ice crystals kept spinning in the storm and turned into a translucent wailing human figure. He stretched out his hand to Rosette in pain, as if he wanted to say something, but the next moment, an invisible force pulled him into Frostmourne.
Then, everything returned to calm again.
"What did you do to him?!"
Seeing this, Rosette was stunned, while Shizuku shrugged her shoulders.
"Oh, nothing. I killed him and imprisoned his soul in my sword. He will suffer eternal torment in there until his soul completely disappears... This will be a very long and painful process, but I believe that compared to what he has done, it is nothing. It just so happens that he will have a very vivid memory in there, but I don't know how long he can hold on."
As she spoke, Shizuku snapped her fingers, and the cold wind blew again, and then Ein's soul reappeared in the void. However, his eyes were dull at this moment, like a puppet that had completely lost its self-awareness.
"Now he will answer any questions you have. You can ask whatever you want... Then, you can handle the rest by yourselves."
Shizuku smiled at the stunned people, then turned and left the hall and returned to her room. Then, she lowered her head and looked at her right hand - in her hand, there was a piece of golden fragment.
"I never thought that the last piece of debris would be on this guy. It's really like trying to pick flowers but they don't bloom, but planting willows by accident and they grow into shade..."
Looking at the third fragment in her hand, Shizuku couldn't help but sigh. This fragment was obtained from the body fragments of Iin when she killed him just now... Well, thinking about it carefully, it seems that at the end of the animation, Iin, who was supposed to be killed by Rosette and Chrono, was indeed resurrected.
But it's okay this way.
Holding the fragment tightly in her hand, Shizuku nodded with satisfaction. Now Rosette didn't have to die early, and could start a new life with Chrono. And Iin, the boss that made her hate him so much, was now killed by her. He was dead and couldn't die any more. It could be considered as making up for the regrets of her childhood. By the way, she also got the third fragment...
Thinking of this, Shizuku couldn't help but smile slightly.
This wave is really profitable!
