Chapter 198 Desperate Wish



The disappearance of the slate was troublesome enough, but there was something even more troublesome afterwards.

All the outsiders and clan members who had contact with the stone tablet had their situations changed. Most of them said that they saw the stone tablet in their consciousness. The stone tablet told them that it would help them realize a wish, which did not take into account, even resurrecting the dead.

Not only them, several kings also heard the sound of the stone tablet.

Even the dead can be resurrected if their wishes are granted, but this condition has silenced countless people.

Almost everyone has a sad past or two, and now is an opportunity to make amends for that sadness.

Then, the outsiders began to revel. They were not a clan, and most of them became outsiders by accident. They happily made wishes and wanted to welcome a happy life. The first task of Scepter 4 was to deal with the social chaos caused by these wishes.

"This is already the sixth time we've been dispatched today." Fushimi Saruhiko leaned against the wall and sighed, "This is too frequent."

"Don't complain, Fushimi. This is a special situation." Awashima Seri stood in front of Fushimi Saruhiko. "It's not just you. Everyone, including the director, is working overtime."

Fushimi Saruhiko frowned, "I was just wondering why they really believed the words of the so-called stone tablet and didn't think there was a problem."

"The slate has been the source of power for so many years, and everyone has enjoyed the benefits of the power of the slate. Of course, no one would think that the slate that provides power would lie. They would only think that this is a gift from the slate."

Fushimi Saruhiko clicked his tongue and said, "Can this wish really come true?"

"From what we can see so far, any wish can be fulfilled." Awashima Seri said, "You should have seen that the outsider who wished for his mother's resurrection actually has his mother at home."

"It's inevitable that everyone will be attracted to this tempting choice."

Fushimi Saruhiko lowered his head and looked at the palm of his hand. "...Even I am a little tempted."

"You'd better not. I don't want to put you in a special prison."

On the other side, in Houmai Ronne, everyone except Suho Takashi was in the bar. Everyone of them heard the sound of the stone slab, but no one made a wish except Anna.

"So, let's talk about this." Kusanagi Izumo leaned on the bar, "No matter what, no one is allowed to make a wish, understand?"

"But, why?" Hatta Misaki frowned, "Is there really something wrong with that wish? Aren't we all using the power of the stone tablet? If I make a wish to the stone tablet to let the monkey come back, can he really come back..."

"If you really try, then I tell you, he will come back, but the result may not be what you imagine." Hinata Souno was sitting on the sofa in a small corner, browsing his phone, staring at the screen and speaking, "You will probably keep quarreling, quarreling until you want to separate, but you can't separate because of your wish."

Hatta Misaki was bewildered, "…but we have quarreled before."

"That was just a quarrel, and it's different from what's happening now." Hinata Hajime raised his head and looked at Hatta Misaki, "Now it's Fushimi who left of his own volition, and you don't even know why he left, and you're trying to bring him back with this wish, don't you think he'll be angry?"

Hatta Misaki shut his mouth because he knew that Fushimi would be angry, and very angry.

"What should we do now?" Li Fu immediately changed the subject. "Even if none of us make a wish, there must be many people who do. Mr. Zun is still with the King of Gold. No one knows what will happen."

"Don't worry, don't worry. The bridge will be straightened when it reaches the bow. You'll be fine." Jutsu Tadara smiled and comforted everyone. "In short, before this is over, we have to agree on a policy. First, we must not conflict with Scepter 4 during this period. Second, we can't make wishes."

"Third, do me a favor." Hinata Hajime put down his phone, "Help me find the location of the stone slab."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, "Huh? Looking for a stone slab?"

"The stone tablet is physical. Although it is a collection of wishes, it has been sealed, so its power cannot be exerted, and it will always exist in the form of a stone tablet." Hinata Hajime snapped his fingers, "When the stone tablet entered your consciousness, did you feel like you went somewhere?"

"Is that the feeling?"

"Find this location." Hinata Hajime said, "Leave everything else to me."

"Is it really okay?" Kusanagi Izumo looked at Hinata Hajime, "Now the Golden King and his men are trying to catch you. Even if something like this happens..."

"It's okay." Hinata Hajime smiled, "As long as I want, I won't be caught."

Kusanagi Izumo and Jutsuka Tadara looked at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Okay." Jutsu Tado nodded, "We believe you."

On the other side, on the spaceship in the air, Weitzman looked at the mirror in front of him.

In the mirror, he vaguely saw a woman who smiled at him gently and called his name.

Claudia Weitzman.

Weiszman lowered his head, with a hint of helpless sadness in his eyes.

“It’s so tempting.”

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was firmness in his eyes. He turned and left. The door of the spaceship opened, and he walked out of the spaceship step by step. On the other side of the rooftop, the King of Gold was waiting for him. The other kings stood behind, and they had no interest in the first king who was only heard of.

Only Miwa politely gave his name. Reiji Munakata was polite enough, but he didn't have much emotion.

"Can I see the slate, Lieutenant?" Weissman inquired. "It always seems a little strange to me that I have to suddenly grant wishes to all the chosen ones."

The Golden King was silent for a moment, then he spoke, "Weizman, I want you to go and see it, but the stone tablet is gone."

Weiszman was stunned for a moment, "What?"

"The tablet is gone. It disappeared between the tablets," the King of Gold repeated. "We have all been looking for it, but there is no news until now."

"Show me between the slabs."

The Gold King took the Silver King down, but the other three kings did not follow. Instead of moving meaninglessly, they would rather actually search for the stone slab.

Between the stone slabs, Weisman kept looking back at the scene where the stone slab disappeared. Then he walked to the middle of the stone slabs with a little doubt in his eyes.

“Why did it disappear?”

"Weitzman." The King of Gold came over.

"Lieutenant?"

"How do you feel about that wish?" the King of Gold asked.

The Silver King thought for a moment and said, "It sounds very tempting, but it doesn't seem very credible. The slate has been changing constantly, and the unlimited wish sounds a bit hard to say. At the very least, the resurrection of the dead is not credible at all."

"But there are people who have actually resurrected their dead family members."

"Really?" Weiszman smiled. "That's normal. After all, it's so tempting."

The King of Gold looked at the empty stone slabs with a confused look in his eyes. "I once thought about whether I should make a wish so that Japan can always maintain this strength..."

"As expected, Lieutenant, at this time, the wish you want to make is also for the country."

"I almost said that, but then I thought, what if someone wishes for the destruction of Japan?" The King of Gold frowned slightly, "It's not impossible for this to happen."

Weissman smiled. "So instead of making such a wish, it is better to find the stone tablet first. I wonder if it will come back if the wishing stone tablet comes back."

“I don’t know, but I can try.”

[So, am I special? After all, I am not an outsider, but I was still found by the stone tablet and my wish was fulfilled. ]

【Then I recovered a half-memory. 】

[…Okay, it’s trying to hurt me on purpose.] Hinata Sou was angry, [I’ll file a complaint if I see it again next time.]

Kamijū Izuru breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Hinata Sou regain his former vitality.

With his hands in his coat pockets, Hinata Hajime walked out with his hood on. At this moment, he saw Suho Takashi and Munakata Reiji standing not far away. They seemed to have just come out of the Golden King and were chatting about something. Although their expressions could not be seen, it was estimated that they had already fought to a draw with each other with momentum.

Hinata Hajime lowered his head and walked past the two men. Just as he missed Suho-sama, a note was stuffed into his pocket.

He blinked, then turned and walked into the side road, then took the note out of his pocket. The next moment, Hinata Hajime saw the note in his hand begin to burn, and the flames burned out black holes, which formed a few words.

"The Pillar Tower".

The paper was completely burned out and Hinata Sou tilted his head.

"Did they recover the tablet? Great, the Kings."

On the other side, Munakata Reiji said as he walked, "Did Akao just do something unnecessary?"

"no."

"Are you too lazy to even explain, Suho?"

"He has a way."

"If this matter ends at the cost of the shattering of the stone slab, I think most people will not be satisfied. The stone slab is a must for many people, and the king's existence is based on the stone slab."

Zhou Fangzun looked uninterested, "I don't like being a king based on stone tablets. I am myself."

"It doesn't matter if you're not the king."

Reiji Munakata stopped and watched Suohono walking forward with a cigarette in his mouth. After a moment, Reiji Munakata sighed.

"What an irresponsible king."

However, isn't it just to become king in order to become king, or just to become yourself?

This is indeed a good theory.
