Endless Winter's
Chapter 9: Start Over
News everywhere-warm news of the collapse of the Venzonia Kingdom in 1 day. This led to a lot of debate about the actions of the Hieronian Empire.
Hieronian was condemned by the world for his use of weapons of mass destruction. As a superpower, they did not take it seriously, and justified its deeds. Even so, they still provide countermeasures funds to survivors.
"Huh... They are so desperate! Don't they think about the impact that the weapon had?" Justin complained about the news.
"Superpowers like them are unpredictable. Don't be surprised if they do such an extreme." Answer Mitch.
Then, someone came...
"We're home!"
"Lohs... Amanda, is walking fast? What about her condition, Grace?"
"Yes, Grace asked me to come home. His body condition began to improve, even though he was a vampire, wounds like this would be long to heal." Answer Amanda.
"By the way, did we get those funds?" Ask Mitch curiously.
"of course. However, this was not worth the incident yesterday. Everyone earned 10,000 Gold Coins." Obviously Justin.
"Wow, there's so much! That kind of money can almost buy anything here. Although it can be counted on the fingers, but if one person gets that much, then where does their budget come from?" Mitch wondered.
"Huh.they are superpowers. Their development was more advanced than other kingdoms. They do not use coins as a medium of exchange. However, they used a thin sheet of paper with nominal numbers. The possible exchange rate of that thing is higher than the coins we use." Obviously Justin.
______------_____------_____
In the Tower Of Mirage, Maria gathered all the members to gather in the throne room. Everyone sat in their seats discussing something...
"You all know why we're all gathered here?" Maria started the conversation.
"..."
"Seriously? There's not a single one? Then explain it to them, Warrance!"
Warrance frowned, "What is it, Boss? In my recovery condition?"
"Goal is command! It's absolute!"
A heavy breath was seen on Warrance's face, "Huh.. alright!"
"Don't have fun first-It hasn't got to 'climax'. However, the good news is that the preparation for 'climax' has been fulfilled, which means that this is near. Can't you wait to get to the top?"
A loud cheer broke the entire room...
"She. by the way, who hurt you like this, Warrance?" Gravestone asked who pointed at the Warrance body that was filled with many bandages.
The woman stuck her fingers together, "Hehehe. We finally got a fight from them-I mean, their side has someone who can fight. So, this will make it more stressful and not monotonous!"
"B-but you didn't answer the question."
"That's not important! Ignorance will lead you to who has made me this way. Well, for now I'll explain what 'climax' is'!" Warrance's words ignored Gravestone's words.
Long story short, they broke up one by one. Only Maria, Yukki, and Warrance left.
"You two really amaze me. The great predictions of the Warrance are incredible. How do you know about the use of weapons of mass destruction?" Said Mary who held her fingers together.
"Heee. Just getting information from the empire directly. As well as giving a pinch of information to them about the danger of his spores being produced." It's clear from Warrance.
"But... How did you get in there? Their defense and security are very strict!" Tanya Yukki was curious.
"That's easy, I disguised myself as Emperor's Guard."
"Well, when you're not around... Warrance replaced you as a spatial expert to pry for the information." Maria to Yukki.
"Yesterday's victory brought great success. As a result, the percentage of attacks from the devil increased. The demons began to move to tear apart the human settlement. According to your wishes, Boss. Is 'The Prince' going down?" Warrance.
"He's coming down soon if the world isn't okay. Most likely down and help the humans. No one knows his will, He is none other than perfect for us!" Obviously Maria.
In Yukki's mind, "Fuck! What are they talking about? The Princes? Perfect figure? What is that thing?" Yukki could only hold his head.
"Please cooperate, Yukki!"
That sentence surprised Yukki, "Huh? Whahuh? Wh-wh-what for? Did I miss something?"
"To emphasize the ultimate success of the plan!" Answer Warrance.
"I understand!"
"Oh yeah I forgot something... Yukki, you got the mask, right?" Ask Maria.
"Yes, here we go. Actually I don't want to kill him, but according to your wishes, another mask of Smiles Cry!"
"Good Work!" Maria received her mask.
"I'm curious about the power of this mask... I hear, this mask can take the power of an opponent just once look."
"Hehe... What do you expect with a rotten mask like this? There's nothing else but being controlled by the other masks." Obviously Maria.
Yukki was silent and was digesting Maria's words.
"There are two masks... 'Smiles Cry Controller', and 'Smiles Cry Victim'. And what I'm holding now is Victim. Anyone who wears this, can be controlled by someone who wears the Controller mask." Obviously Maria.
"Oh so, how could the mask be gone? Did someone steal it?" Tanya Yukki was curious.
"Not a thief or a supernatural event. But I accidentally dropped the mask for the continuation of the Triple Waves attack." Reveal Mary by aligning the mask with her face.
This time it was Warrance's turn...
"What happened to that arrogant girl huh? Is he dead?"
"Who? Who do you mean?" Ask Yukki.
"Do you think he's dead or alive?" Maria asked back.
"It's clear he died on the spot, he along with two Majins who died from the blast." Opinion Warrance.
"Well, it's been. There's nothing to ask anymore. It's very clear, isn't it? Then I'll go first." Maria went straight into a dimensional portal.
"Well? instantly fled. There's still so much I want to ask you." Yukki said a little annoyed.
______[****FLASHBACK****]_______
"Damn it! How did he fall with a stray bullet? Can't be trusted!" Mumbled Hinata while hiding with the mushroom girl.
"How's this? What do we do?" Ask the Mushroom Girl.
"Don't ask that, damn it! Mending you also use your brain to think!" Pissed Hinata.
Hinata peeked back from behind the large building. The girl saw The Greed wake up again, slowly but surely with weak strength.
He watched around, his gaze fixed on Hinata. Then, his arms extended forward, between his fingers was a magic-energy ball that pointed right at Hinata.
Instantly, Hinata disappeared somewhere. The Mushroom Girl was confused and tried to find her. He did not know that a bullet had already shot out at high speed.
There's no time left, he died along with The Greed who didn't realize anything.
Back to the present...
After an explosion destroyed a kingdom, Hinata reappeared and was astonished by what had happened.
"What... has happened here? Where's everybody? Most importantly, how did a kingdom of this size just disappear?" Shouted Hinata who was filled with confusion.
The girl realized something, a smell that smelled like explosive material coming from her original world.
Shortly after, a horde of Seckanift Theocracy soldiers came. Not a favor he got, but an arrest that made him sick in the head.
"What happened?!!!" For the umpteenth time, Hinata was upset about what she had missed.
Hinata was then taken by troops to Secanift Theocracy for temporary detention.
