Chapter 95

As the cherry blossom petals danced in the wind, Misaki opened the old diary and read the words of promise written there.

The raven king's troublesome apprentice was a uniformed female student of about seventeen or eighteen who had come with him. The girl's beautiful face was adorned with makeup that made people feel quite uneasy, and a spherical hairband with the Ω (Omega) symbol gathered her thick black hair into twin pigtails. The skirt of her suit uniform had been specially tailored into an ultra-short style, revealing glimpses of her pure white panties.

"Hello, Dark Noble." Long Taiyang bowed in greeting. Apart from the succubus, who only gave a strange giggle, the others all bowed respectfully in their own ways.

Only Fengmo Wujuan winked at the twin-tailed girl standing beside the raven king after bowing. "Hehe, I remember Miss Omega was just a little kid a few years ago. Now you're a beautiful woman. I think you'd be even cuter without makeup, though."

"Tch. What's it to you, Red-Haired Monkey." The raven king's apprentice, Omega Yuriko, quickly flipped Fengmo Wujuan the middle finger without any hesitation.

As her slender middle finger pointed upward, Fengmo Wujuan and the leather sofa he was sitting on suddenly lost all weight and floated in the air, as if gravity had been erased in an instant. Then, in the next second, gravity returned, and Fengmo Wujuan and the sofa fell back to the ground.

However, Fengmo Wujuan clearly knew Omega Yuriko's trick well. He leisurely adjusted his cowboy hat and grinned at the girl. "Your telekinetic throw has improved. I remember when I first met you, you threw me into the ceiling..."

"Hmph, I held back. If I were serious, I could throw a tank now," Omega Yuriko said proudly, raising an eyebrow.

Can she move a tank with a single thought? The intensity of her mental power must be even stronger than the raven king's? Long Taiyang and the others glanced at Omega Yuriko without showing any emotion.

"Old man, you didn't gather us here just to show off your good apprentice, did you?" The succubus was the only one who didn't show the utmost respect. She even called the raven king "old man" and giggled, "You haven't been doing well lately, have you? Most of the European branch has followed Duke Phoenix. I told you from the beginning that we should have killed the traitor. Clearly, he was ungrateful. Unfortunately, you rejected the idea out of respect for Hermans."

"If you were so far-sighted, why didn't you kill him back then?" Omega Yuriko, clearly dissatisfied with the succubus's attitude, retorted coldly.

"Kill him? Hehe, I did consider it back then," the succubus said with a sinister laugh. "But he was Duke Hermans' favorite at the time. He was cautious, strong, and had a few troublesome allies. I usually act alone, unlike the old raven who can rally a hundred followers. Killing him would have been a bit troublesome."

"Respected Dark Noble, are you planning to take action against the European branch?" The bald man, code-named 47, asked coldly.

"Russian baldy, do you really think we can take down the well-funded and well-staffed European branch with just a few of us?" The succubus gave a snake-like, eerie laugh and taunted, "If you're so confident, why don't we discuss conquering the world? It's better to dream big."

At this point, the succubus glanced at the raven king. If a few elite fighters with strong individual abilities could take down the deeply entrenched European branch in Europe and Africa, the Last Line of Defense and the European Union government would have done it long ago.

"Phoenix is a rare talent. His betrayal pains me," the raven king said, waving his hand and speaking in ancient English. "But I did not summon you to engage in open conflict with him. There is something I have been unable to understand recently, and I need your help to handle it."

"Old man, you have something you can't figure out? Interesting, tell us more," the succubus's attitude made everyone frown, and Omega Yuriko was eager to strike secretly. But the raven king only looked at him with a complex expression.

"Noah, my child, there are many things in this world that I cannot fathom," the raven king mused. "Why did Phoenix openly refuse my request? And why did he send his daughter to Qianlong? Phoenix is naturally ambitious and unwilling to be subordinate, which is understandable. But his power, though considerable, is not yet enough to challenge us. Breaking ties now would only lead to internal strife and disintegration, which is not the act of a wise man."

"In recent days, I have sensed a turbulent undercurrent, and the tide of the times may bring a shocking change," the raven king said, his gaze distant. "Even if Phoenix is cunning and uses Qianlong to set a trap for me, I must quickly uncover his true intentions. Otherwise, the longer we wait, the more we will be at a disadvantage. The key, I believe, lies with his daughter, whom he is unwilling to hand over to me."

"Are we going to kidnap Duke Phoenix's daughter from Qianlong's territory?" Fengmo Wujuan clicked his tongue and shrugged in a very American way. "Uh, this task isn't much easier than directly attacking the European branch..."

Long Taiyang and Hu Qinglan also frowned slightly. Among the Qianlong forces, the Last Line of Defense, and the Serpent of Wisdom, the Qianlong forces were the weakest in terms of personnel and equipment quality. But they were still the strongest special operations unit in Asia. Pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth would be no easy task.

But no matter how difficult it was, they still had to carry out the raven king's orders.

"Old man, I'll take this mission," the succubus, who had been in a bad mood, smiled. "I'm very curious about what leverage Di Tianxia has. Besides, I've had many encounters with the Last Line of Defense, but I haven't really dealt with Qianlong. I wonder how the strongest unit in Asia compares to the Last Line of Defense... Hehehe."

"When do we move?" The tough guy, code-named 47, asked directly.

"Immediately. My apprentice Omega will also join you," the raven king said calmly. "There's no need to kidnap her. As long as Omega can interact with the girl for a short while, the truth will be revealed."

Omega Yuriko's mental power talent was almost as strong as the raven king's, and hypnotizing someone with her mental power was effortless. Normal people's brain waves couldn't withstand her.

Fengmo Wujuan whistled. "That makes it much easier."

"What a pity, that girl could have been my beloved junior sister," Omega Yuriko pouted and held the raven king's arm. "Teacher, if you let me go on a long journey, I want a personal attendant. How about lending me Sister Rebecca?"

The "Sister Rebecca" she mentioned was the Gothic maid Rebecca Robelute, who had served Long Taiyang earlier. She was one of the most advanced female cyborgs among the modified knights, with no additional damage except for the lack of emotions, usually responsible for the raven king's personal service.

The raven king patted Omega Yuriko's hand and smiled. "Very well. I will also order 'Jackal' to lead fifty modified knights to the Chinese border to cause destruction and thin out Qianlong's forces. I hope you all do not fail me."

"Respected Dark Noble, it's just a little girl," Fengmo Wujuan chuckled. "Qianlong's 'Red Sword Immortal' and 'Thunder Sky Great Strength' are the hardest to deal with. As long as we can draw one of them away, the rest..." He shrugged. "We can handle it."

Two days later, Long Taiyang, Hu Qinglan, Fengmo Wujuan, code-named 47, the succubus, Omega Yuriko, and the cyborg maid Rebecca, a total of seven people, entered the Yanjing region of China under different identities.

Although there were only seven of them, each one was a super-criminal capable of causing chaos and headaches for a city or even a small country. But they had only one goal:

The girl holding unknown secrets, Duke Phoenix's beloved daughter, Elowenita Phoenix. i1387
