Chapter 43: Return to Hakoniwa City

There were no spectators, no judges, no witnesses. Except for the two parties, no one knew about the course of that duel. The only thing that is known is that on that day, an arrow, a sharp arrow that shone with brilliant light, pierced the walls of the castle and disappeared from sight.

The arrows of light pierce the sky, illuminate the earth, and purify all filth. Countless lower-level demons died in an instant wailing under the illumination of the light, and in just a short moment when the arrow of light flew out of the castle, many demons dissipated in the light.

However, it is unbelievable that the shrine maiden Kikyo, who shot such an amazing arrow, actually died in her own tricks.

Kikyo, whose body has turned into a half-demon being, is no longer able to bathe in the radiation of the power of purification, and when she shoots this arrow with all her might, she becomes the first person to die under this arrow.

For such an outcome, she probably expected it a long time ago. Rather than becoming a monster in the end, it is better to end his life with his own hands in advance.

I didn't choose to do that before, I'm afraid I still have a desire to destroy Cangzhen for revenge, and after seeing the strength of Castlevania, that wish was shattered. Seeing that revenge is far away, Kikyo naturally does not want to live.

Hearing the news of Kikyo's death, Cang Zhen was just stunned for a moment, and then nodded his head to indicate that he knew.

Kikyo is a bellflower in the end, and it will be much more difficult than expected to make her fall.

It's a pity.

Looking at Huang Quan, who was entangled, Cang Zhen didn't say anything, and Kikyo's choice was probably a big shock to her.

After all, the two have similarities in various ways, but the final choice is very different.

Huang Quan chose to degenerate into a demon and live, while Kikyo fulfilled the witch's persistence and faith with death, and the choice of the two was no one higher or lower, to put it bluntly, it was nothing more than a difference in philosophy.

But Huang Quan, who used to be a demon slayer, can more or less understand Kikyo's thoughts, so she can't let go.

Although she knew about Huang Quan's condition, Cang Zhen couldn't comfort her anything, so she had to calm herself down. Anyway, with Huang Quan's intelligence, he will probably see it soon.

The time of coming to the Warring States is not long, but it is not short, and it is finally time to say goodbye to this world that has been ruined by them.

Of course, for the people of this world, the appearance of demons is indeed a disaster. But for the world, it can be called a good thing that youkai withdrew from the world stage ahead of schedule and humans were able to develop ahead of schedule.

The prosperity of the human race is not an empty talk, but the overall situation set by the gods and Buddhas after careful consideration. Everything that gets in the way must be cleared out.

"It's finally time to say goodbye."

Although it was not the first day that he knew that he would have to leave sooner or later, Huang Quan still felt very sad when it came to the day he left the world he grew up in.

Even if the times are different, it is still the original world, and she is no stranger to the history of the Warring States, but this time, the place she arrived at is no longer the world she is familiar with.

In the world of Hakoniwa, Huang Quan once heard this name from other people's mouths.

The world of the gods, the "Box Garden", is a stage created by the gods, and a paradise where heroes and heroes and talented people gather. Can an ordinary girl like her really fit in such a place?

Rao is Huangquan has always been strong, she still feels the slightest fear of Hakoten, after all, she is not a once-in-a-century genius, let alone a darling of the gods who has been blessed by the gods since birth.

Huang Quan is very self-aware, even if she counts with her hands, all she can do is hard-working swordsmanship. However, her swordsmanship level is, to put it bluntly, stronger than her peers, and she is not as strong as the first in the world, and it is definitely not worth mentioning compared to those legendary heroes.

With his own swordsmanship or inconspicuous spells, can he survive well in a world where gods and demons dance like Hakoiwa?

Huang Quan is a girl in the end, and it is inevitable that she will have bad thoughts.

However, after gaining the power of the Seven Sins Witch and hearing about the performance of her predecessors from Leticia, she was somewhat relieved.

Since everyone else can do well, there is no reason why she can't do it, and if she doesn't have enough talent, she will use hard work to fill it. As long as she puts in several times the effort, she still has the confidence to catch up with those geniuses.

Just like when Castlevania came, without any warning, the demonic castle and the murderous demon clan disappeared silently and magically on the land of Sengoku.

It wasn't until a month after Castlevania disappeared that the daring guy sneaked up on the place where the castle was located and was surprised to find out about it.

As the news spread, both humans and monsters cheered and celebrated.

Why do demons appear? Why did the demon suddenly disappear again?

After all, these questions have become eternal mysteries with the disappearance of Castlevania.

Maybe future historians will think about it because of this, or maybe the fourth level of the demon will be distorted into a legend passed down by people's mouth, and it will be funny just thinking about it.

"There are a lot fewer old faces."

Back in Hakoiwa, the first thing Cangzhen did was gather the latest intelligence.

Although it is a bit incorrect to say this, in this box garden city, there are no longer a few immortal species, but it is also an indisputable fact that the familiar faces are decreasing every time they wake up.

The Demon King will not end well in the end, and those who come to the throne of the Demon King have long been enlightened.

"It's amazing, this 'Arcadia', are they really human?"

Huang Quan, who had flipped through the information with Cang Zhen and was familiar with the box court, exclaimed, can humans really do this?

At the time of Castlevania's departure from Hakoinda, the prestige of the Arcadia Grand Alliance grew to the point where almost everyone knew and knew about it, and even the highest levels could hear their names.

After learning about Arcadia's deeds, Huang Quan deeply worshipped the canary, the founder of Arcadia, for the first time. is obviously a woman, but she has completed the feat of so many heroes and heroes who are afraid to move forward.

Although she didn't come to Hakoin for a long time, and she had only heard the stories of the Cataclysmic Demon Kings in Hakote, she had only heard them from legends, but after Huang Quan compared the true horror of her master, she could think of the good of other demon kings, and to be honest, she didn't have the confidence to win any of them.

But the demon kings who are currently in the hands of the Arcadia Grand Alliance, not to mention the demon kings who are not very famous, even those who are well-known in the world and can stop children crying at night are not a few.

It can be said that the current Arcadia is a behemoth that the entire box garden cannot ignore. Vertical and horizontal three areas, tentacles extend from the lower level to the upper level, the gods and Buddhas are amazed by the community.

"There is no doubt about it!"

Cang Zhen affirmed Huang Quan's question, not to mention anything else, most of Arcadia's core members were humans.

Of course, they will certainly not be helpless scholars, at least they all have some means to survive.

"That's amazing."

Hearing Cang's true affirmation, Huang Quan exclaimed again.

What a long face for human beings!

"When the water is full, it overflows, and when the moon is full, it loses. Arcadia's current prosperity is nothing more than a fire cooking oil, and after reaching its peak, it is a decline, and no force can avoid the end. The former knights of the box garden have not fallen into the fate of the clansmen who are almost dead. ”

Without Leticia by her side, Cang Zhen said some things more bluntly without concealing them.

Arcadia is still inferior to the Hakoba Knights of the past, but it is only a matter of time before they catch up. However, when they reach that height, what awaits them is the test of the gods and demon kings.

As a result, it's probably not difficult to imagine the fate of the box court knights.

The rebellion of the vampire clan is quite suspicious when you think about it, and it is a puzzling doubt that the knights of the box court, who are famous for their wisdom and strength, would collapse because of a rebellion.

A few boxes of information that were piled up slowly were quickly taken out, and the latest changes in the situation in the box court were supplemented, so Cang Zhen would not be confused because of the unexpected situation.

During the time that Castlevania left, Hakowa was still as lively as ever.

Leaving aside those things that don't concern you, there isn't much information that deserves Cangzhen's attention.

First, there was a slight friction between the community "Campione" and the "Arcadia" alliance led by Pandora, but fortunately, both sides were quite restrained and did not develop into a large-scale firefight.

However, with the nature of the godslayers, it was only a matter of time before an unsolvable collision occurred.

The wise Pandora would not have been surprised that she had already sent a request for assistance to the "Castlevania" in the name of the community "Campione".

Since Castlevania had escaped into subspace at that time, Erica, who stayed in Hakote, encouraged Liliana to go to the community of Pandora and others. In the end, people from the same world are relatively familiar with each other, and under Pandora's hands, Erica and the two can also get a lot of guidance.

The second is that Arcadia's dominating situation has caused a strong backlash from many demon kings, and many demon kings secretly collude with each other, intending to establish an alliance to fight against the powerful Arcadia Grand Alliance.

After all, if Arcadia has always been so strong, how can the demon kings who insist on performing in their true colors mix, and how can they spread fear and chaos in the lower classes?

Naturally, the inviters of the alliance did not forget Castlevania and Cangzhen, a community of demon kings that had survived from ancient times, and the invitation to form an alliance was transferred to Cangzhen through the hands of Erica and Liliana.

Accepting this application for an alliance would mean a head-on confrontation with the unbeatable Grand League of Arcadia in the near future.

Don't look at the Demon Kings are all so arrogant, but none of them dare to say that they will definitely be able to defeat the Arcadia Grand Alliance, but they just insist on the true nature of the Demon King and would rather die than retreat.

"Death, do you think we're going to accept it?"

Holding the alliance application in his hand and fanning it, Cangzhen leaned on the throne with his arms leaning on his arms, and asked the god of death hesitantly.

Cangzhen is fundamentally different from the demon king of the box court, he lacks the determination of the demon king of the box court to insist on the true nature of the demon king at all costs, and naturally he does not want to fight against him in the heyday of Arcadia.

If you win, it won't do Castlevania any good, and if you lose, you will even lose your underwear.

The question is, as a demon king, he has done nothing, can he still be called a "demon king"?

I don't even have the courage to be enemies of the world, and it's better to live than a salted fish.
