Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

Page 133

Just think of it this way: if you could continuously produce warriors like peak Kevin, peak Thousand Calamity, and controllable Kosmo, and form an army, then apart from the most outrageous full-state End, you could easily sweep through everything, right?

But this is just an idea, since Honkai is conscious.

It targets civilizations, especially if you intend to use Honkai energy to fight against Honkai, then no matter how you think about it, you can't escape its arrangements.

This is just like how White Wing Duke and Roland felt on the European battlefield before.

Therefore, Roland will not mass-produce fusion warriors in this world unless there is absolutely no other way.

After all, with such a large-scale use of Honkai energy, it's impossible to say whether the Honkai will be amplified to an absurd degree.

As Roland talked about the plan, he also organized his thoughts on the 0.3 method.

But at that moment, Roland suddenly paused, stopped talking, and looked in a certain direction.

"Someone has sneaked in."

Tiamat spoke softly, and Ryougi Shiki stood up.

"Should I come over there?"

Hearing her say that, Roland smiled.

"No need to be nervous, it's just a kitten. I know she'll be running around everywhere at night, so I made sure the security system put her on the whitelist. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to get in at all."

"So if you're bored, go and grab her. If you don't want to move, I'll have the shadows bring her over."

Ryougi Shiki shrugged.

"I'll go there; it's been a while since I've had any activities."

"Then it's up to you, but the opponent is weak, so don't go too far."

"Well, I see."

With such a simple conversation, Padofelis, who had sneaked in to work, had her fate sealed.

....

77. Roland: I am the 'boss'.

"It's super easy!"

As Padrefilis walked down the hallway of the house, looking at the luxurious decor, a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.

Although she had already roughly confirmed through various intelligence reports that this family was probably the richest on Twilight Street, poverty limited her imagination.

She never expected this family to be so rich!

The paintings she usually saw in the homes of so-called rich people, the ones that were collected and carefully guarded by those guys, were all hanging in this corridor!

Some of them were things she stumbled upon while researching valuable items, and they were ridiculously expensive!

Seeing this made Padofelis very happy.

"Take the painting and leave quickly. After all, someone with that much money is definitely not someone to mess with... We're just a nobody. We can take risks, but we can't be stupid."

Padofelis is not stupid at all.

Or, to put it another way, someone who grew up on Twilight Street from a young age, and who almost never makes a mistake in this kind of work and has lived to this age, couldn't possibly be a fool.

So after seeing this corridor, she only planned to pick out a mid-range painting for 29 yuan from an inconspicuous spot and take it away.

That would be enough for her to buy some good food for the children in the nursing home.

Besides, this family is so wealthy, and they only lost a rather insignificant painting. Presumably, to save face, they won't bother with a big investigation. So, if they drag it out, it'll just go away.

That's what she thought.

but

"Oh, so that's what you think."

A voice suddenly rang out behind her, startling Padrephilis so much that she froze instantly.

When she slowly turned her head to look behind her, she found a woman standing behind her wearing loose but conservative clothes, but who had a unique charm.

"But have you ever thought about this: sometimes, taking risks is just as stupid as doing something foolish?"

As the woman spoke, her eyes gleamed with a strange light, a deep blue tinged with a blood-red hue.

This completely shattered Padofelis's already fragile mental defenses.

Because Padofelis was certain she hadn't misread it!

The house wasn't lit, but this woman's eyes lit up instantly!

This is too scary!

So her legs went weak, and just as Ryougi Shiki was on guard against her possibly escaping, she knelt down on the ground with such clean, swift speed that even Ryougi Shiki didn't have time to stop her, and clasped her hands together and closed her eyes.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, please don't hit me, let's talk this out, I'm most afraid of pain!"

Ah, this...

When Ryougi Shiki saw Pathophilis trembling, any interest she had was immediately dashed.

Although Roland had told her before she arrived that Padofelis was very weak, she didn't really have a concept of it at the time.

Moreover, she knew the conditions for joining the Gods, so she thought that anyone who could be chosen by Roland had to be strong, have potential, and have achievements. So how weak could they be?

But now...

Ryougi Shiki scratched her head, turned off her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, and felt a surge of annoyance as she watched Padrephilis kneel and beg for mercy with practiced ease.

Then her eyes narrowed, like those of a predator, causing Padofelis's voice to grow softer and softer until she finally shut up, kneeling on the ground with a forced smile.

“I have no interest in taking action against people who don’t fight back... so you’d better behave yourself.”

Upon hearing Ryougi Shiki's words, Padofelis nodded repeatedly.

"No resistance! We're so weak, how could we possibly resist!"

Seeing her like this, Ryougi Shiki gave a soft snort, but didn't say anything more. She simply turned around and left her with these words.

"Come on, someone wants to see you."

"Padophilia grew up on Twilight Street. She initially learned her thieving skills from a cat, and she was very lucky..."

Roland sat on the sofa, watching with great interest as Padofelis knelt before him, and recounted her experiences bit by bit.

This put a lot of pressure on Padofelis!

Hmm... I didn't know you shouldn't put too much stress on cats, it will make them shed!

While Padofelis was lost in thought, Roland, after giving her most of the information, finally emphasized the boss.

"...I often contact a person called the boss, who is said to be the real mastermind behind Twilight Street."

Hearing Roland say this, Padofelis blinked and then nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, the boss is very capable."

She started by saying that, but as she spoke, seeing Roland's seemingly unchanged expression, her previously high-spirited demeanor crumbled instantly.

"...Oh dear, but I'm just a nobody, not someone who's really valued. Hehe, you see, I didn't even succeed, so could you please let me off this time?"

Padofelis first expressed her request, and then quickly added a sentence afterward.

"Don't worry, I won't mention your affairs at all after I leave. And if you ever need anything in the future, I will definitely help you. Besides, my relationship with the boss isn't that good anymore. If you have any ideas, we can help you!"

"Look, you're so rich, you certainly don't want to live in the shadow of someone hiding in the dark, do you?"

"I still have value!"

"Besides, I can do anything, so please spare me!"

Padofelis is trying her best to demonstrate her value.

Roland looked at her with amusement until she finished speaking, and then slowly opened his mouth.

"Pado...do you know why those guys who love to fight and be ruthless believed the 700 you made up about the boss?"

hiss--

When Roland pointed out that the boss was a fabrication, Padofelis panicked even more.

She instinctively wanted to explain, but this time Roland didn't give her a chance to speak and continued talking.

"Twilight Street is very chaotic. A guy who only has a reputation but can't be found might be feared outside, but this is Twilight Street. Even madmen dare to mess with the guys who are still alive. How can a fictional guy make everyone fear him?"

"So... do you think it's possible that there's someone hiding in Twilight Street, secretly controlling everything, and trying their best to keep everything from being exposed, enjoying that sense of security and the benefits."

"Later, he accidentally discovered that some kid outside had created a character called 'Boss,' so he had a sudden idea and felt it was time to teach some guys in Twilight Street a lesson. So he hid in the shadows, and every time this kid did something under the guise of 'Boss,' he would actually do something behind his back..."

Hearing Roland say this, Pado was a little dumbfounded.

Seeing her like this, Roland stopped teasing her and spoke directly.

"I'm the boss."

"The owner of Twilight Street, and also your protector all these years."
