Chapter 82
The prelude to the regicide
Leaving aside how Shirogane was troubled by her childish amnesiac king, HOMRA was completely enraged.
"Yesterday, Tatara was attacked by the Colorless King."
Upon arriving at HOMRA, Akari dropped this bombshell news with a blank expression.
"The King of Colorless?! Totsuka-kun, are you alright?!"
Upon hearing the news, Misaki Hatta asked anxiously. If Tatara Totsuka hadn't seemed perfectly fine, he probably would have grabbed his weapon and rushed out the door.
Akara glanced at Totsuka Tatara, then changed her posture and stood against the wall.
Totsuka Tatara waved his hand and smiled reassuringly, "With Aka-chan here, I'm fine."
Kusanagi Izumo sighed helplessly, "Don't act like it's no big deal. You've been provoked, haven't you, Mikoto? Well done, Akane."
You've managed to distract yourself; you're such a reliable adult.
Chi nodded to accept the praise, then raised her hand, revealing the spent cartridge case inside, which she had specially preserved.
She waved the camera to indicate, "The Colorless King uses ordinary firearms; he's a new king who doesn't know much about using power. But something feels off."
The Golden King has not received any news of the new king. Whenever they get intelligence, they attack the clans of other kings. It can be basically confirmed that this Colorless King is an evil king.
The former Colorless King, Miwa Ichigen, was a mediator between kings, while this one actively provoked the conflict—a truly ironic contrast.
Kusanagi Izumo lit a cigarette in his hand and said calmly, "Anyway, it's good that nothing happened. We can investigate the Colorless King, but your safety is the most important thing, Totsuka."
Chi nodded in agreement.
"Everyone should be careful lately. The Colorless King's actions are arrogant, and this will definitely not be the last time."
Tatara Totsuka smiled and raised his camera: "I didn't realize I recorded something, you can all take a look."
They gathered together.
Soon, the unrestrained laughter of the boys and the piercing sound of gunshots in the camera footage stimulated the nerves of the Red Group boys, making their expressions even more indignant.
"Damn it! How dare he lay a hand on Totsuka-kun! I won't let him get away with this!"
"Exactly! Too arrogant!"
They had never seen anyone more annoying than that group of people in blue.
No, this is already disgust.
Seeing the boys' anger reignited, Chi scratched his head, sighed, lowered his red eyes, and slowly walked to the sofa.
The Crimson King sat there, silent the whole time, like a lion poised to pounce. A faint smell of smoke filled the air. Crimson wrinkled his nose and waved his hand.
She looked at the king with piercing, burning gaze.
She said, "King, what should I do?"
Akane's words silenced HOMRA. The group of spirited young men looked straight at their king, awaiting orders.
Suoh Mikoto's savagery was about to burst forth. The already warlike lion was completely enraged by the enemy who had invaded his territory, and a crimson aura swept through the entire bar.
His amber eyes turned crimson, and finally, a raging fire took over his eyes.
"Burn it all!" The Crimson King's deep voice and irresistible command ignited the power of the Crimson Alliance clans.
They also possessed an undeniable crimson aura, a power bestowed by the king, their imposing presence like a mountain pressing down, making it hard to breathe.
The king's instructions are the direction of their actions; this is an indisputable fact.
Their voices rose in response: "Oh!"
Looking at the excited faces, Akara sighed. His gaze swept around and met that of Kushina Anna, who was sitting quietly at the bar. His pale red eyes were fixed on her intently.
Then, the girl, who looked like a delicate doll, gave a faint smile.
Like a cool breeze in the midst of the heated atmosphere, it penetrated the crowd and calmed Chi down.
Chi blinked and nodded, seemingly unsure of what to do.
Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice rang out in their ears, appearing silently and alerting everyone.
"Hello everyone, this is Wuse."
A girl with long white hair suddenly appeared beside Akane, smiling indifferently.
"Now, let's talk about regicide."
—
The boy walking and searching in the streets had delicate features and a slender figure. He wore a long trench coat and white leather casual shoes. His long black hair with a bluish tinge was carefully tied up, and at his waist was a samurai sword [Ryō] capable of killing kings.
His name is Yatogami Kuroh, and he is a retainer of the late Seventh King, Miwa Ichigen.
By order of the deceased king, the new king is judged, and his good and evil are determined. [Reason] is given by the seventh king and is used to execute the evil king.
Golden light outlined his face. Yatogami Kuroh's expression was resolute. He was still searching for the new king's whereabouts to fulfill the mission given to him by his deceased master.
Even after a long time, this straightforward young man never gave up searching for the vanished king.
He gripped the knife at his waist, and walked resolutely down the unknown path.
As they turned the corner into the alley, Yatogami Kuroh suddenly gripped the sword at his waist and asked warily, "Who are you?"
The girl with short, silver hair looked at him helplessly, gracefully performed a greeting, and then said directly, "I am the Silver King Sword. You are looking for the Colorless King, aren't you? Lord Yato."
Silver is about to lose it, and Red will probably guide the HOMRA group, so the wanted posters all over the streets shouldn't appear.
As a result, it's unclear when the former Colorless King's minister will arrive. Her troubled king urgently needs someone to resolve the issue, so she'll have no choice but to make the trip herself.
When Yatogami Kuroh was searching for the new king, he also learned about the transformation of the royal sword into a human. The straightforward young man confirmed the identity of the person opposite him and nodded seriously, saying, "Yes, may I ask what brings you here?"
Silver pointed to the sky and said without hesitation, "He's in the sky. My king was ambushed by him and is now suffering from amnesia. How about you do me a favor?"
In Fuyuki's eyes, this Yato Shin-kun and the Silver King had a connection; it was a future path that the beings of the world had glimpsed.
It's not a tragedy; it's a future that can continue.
So, Bai Yinbo took action; she wanted to be a driving force for this future.
Yatogami Kuroh quickly processed the vast amount of information contained in those few words. He gripped his sword tightly, his expression serious: "So, this time it's the Evil King."
He defined his goals and clarified his objectives.
—He wanted to kill the king.
Silver nodded in agreement, a gentle smile appearing on her delicate and elegant face. She then raised her question again: "Could you help me? If I stay with my king, I might be able to meet the Colorless King of the Sky very soon."
Shirogane was very confident that his own king, now known as Isana Yashiro, would not be attacked only once, but would definitely be targeted again.
Although she didn't want this kind of confidence, she just inexplicably believed it.
Yatogami Kuroh pondered for a moment, his long hair swaying in the wind, and the passage of time seemed to slow down.
He suddenly pulled out a small tape recorder and pressed one of the buttons.
Then, a calm and refined male voice came from within: "Act as if nothing is amiss; wherever your heart desires, that is the place beyond your dreams."
The familiar voice seemed to offer immense support, and Yatogami Kuroh's eyes lit up instantly, like a dog that had found its target.
Then he nodded, agreeing with Baiyin's words.
Baiyin rested her chin on her hand and sighed elegantly.
What a fine young man! He's really doing a great job giving this to his own king—
That's awesome!
