The villainous second young lady becomes a god in a bizarre Tokyo.

Soon, a hoarse but clearly excited response came from outside the door.

A man with slicked-back dark green hair and wearing a matching dark green suit walked in carrying a package. His dim yellow snake eyes scanned the group of people inside, giving them an unsettling feeling.

When I saw Himeko and Tamamo-no-Mae.

The water snake's eyes narrowed slightly; he naturally recognized these two celebrities.

Himeko Kamishiro needs no introduction; she is the current representative and successor of the Kamishiro Imperial Family, and almost every superhuman knows her.

Tamamo-no-Mae, as the Saiō of the Ryūko-no-kami shrine of the Imperial Family of the Age of Gods, and having previously treated many people with supernatural abilities and ordinary citizens, also had a fairly good reputation among the public.

Of course, I also recognize aquatic snakes.

He immediately realized that this occasion was probably a meeting between the head of the family and the royal family of the Divine Era to discuss some cooperation.

His dim, snake-like eyes flickered slightly before he knelt down before Xia Yuanliu.

"Greetings, Master of the House."

It should be noted that, for those with supernatural abilities under the rule of the Imperial Family of the Age of Gods, the Mizuki Serpent should have knelt and paid homage to Princess Kamishiro upon entering.

Next is the summer willow.

However, the aquatic snake was the first to kneel before Xia Yuanliu.

His considerations were certainly part of this.

He did this specifically to curry favor with Xia Yuanliu.

Ultimately, as the butler of the Summer Zaibatsu, he would dedicate his life to Summer Riyu. Moreover, kneeling before Summer Riyu would please Summer Riyu, and in his good mood, Summer Riyu might reward him with a senior butler or extraordinary materials.

However, one must first kneel before Himeko.

Even if this is the normal procedure, it will still make Xia Yuanliu somewhat unhappy.

So even if it lowers her impression of Himeko in the eyes of the Kamishiro Emperor, Mizuki no Orochi doesn't rely on the Kamishiro Imperial Family for food, so it's fine if it drops a little.

A ripple appeared in Kamishiro Himeko's pure white eyes, clearly sensing this strange sense of incongruity.

However, I didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, in the eyes of Himeko Kamishiro, a member of the Natsuhime family, the other ability users in the Natsuhime family who did not belong to her mother were, in the end, already dead.

As for Kamishiro Himeko, her gaze was less directed at the water snake and more drawn to the package in its hand.

Compared to the aquatic snake, the other party's package aroused her curiosity more.

Because, in her view...

The package in front of them was not only made of extraordinary materials of a difficult grade, but also had a power of grade A or above, sealing the opening to prevent it from being opened at will.

In other words, it is impossible for anyone other than those with superpowers below level A to open this package.

The package with such measures certainly piqued her curiosity.

Shui Sheng She felt that the package in his hand might very well allow him to be promoted to the position of senior butler.

In fact, the package was not originally on him.

Rather, it lies in Shui Sheng Shou Cheng.

While in the land of the aquatic tribe, by chance...

He overheard Mizuki Morinari and Mizuki Rin quietly discussing something in a room, and he was extremely 'lucky' to overhear crucial information.

The gist of the story is that this package was given to Mizuki Morinari by Natsumi Hanae, who then gave it to Natsumi Niinryu.

It seems to be very valuable.

The implication was that handing it over to Xia Yuanliu would be a great achievement.

This aroused the greed in the Water Serpent's heart. He was only one step away from becoming a senior steward, and his relationship with Water Serpent Shoucheng had not been friendly for a long time, even considered bad.

Naturally, he didn't want Shui Sheng to rise above Xia Yuanliu in status, so he secretly stole the package without making a sound.

The above-mentioned level A and above bans, as well as the materials in the package, all indicate that Shui Sheng Shou Cheng's words are true.

The contents of this package are clearly extremely important.

Although he was unable to open the package and verify what was inside.

But based on the information we have, there is enough here to bring us great success, and that is enough.

Although his current strength is inferior to Shui Sheng Shou Cheng, as long as he receives the reward of extraordinary resources, with his own abilities, he may have a chance to advance to A-level within a few years.

Once he is promoted to Rank A, coupled with the goodwill he has gained from Xia Yuanliu this time, he can also compete for the position of leader of the Shui Sheng lineage, and his future is limitless.

Whenever he thought of this, the water snake's dim, yellowish eyes would be filled with greed.

One day, he will climb over Shui Sheng Shou Cheng's head.

So, let's start now.

The water snake lowered its head, a twisted and extremely excited grin spreading across its lips.

He spoke.

"Master, I wish to present this item to you."

"This package is a gift from Summer Flower Painting to you."

After speaking, Shui Sheng She raised his hands, waiting for Xia Riyuanliu to take the package from his hands.

Saw this scene.

Summer sun rose, Liu Qian's golden pupils narrowed slightly, and his thoughts began to churn and wander.

A gift from summer flower painting?

As far as he knew, the summer flower painting was being looked after by Chikuriya Tsukasa and Mizuki Morinari, and Mizuki Morinari and Mizuki Jabami didn't have a good relationship. Even if it was a so-called gift, how could it have ended up in Mizuki Jabami's hands?

Of course, this is insignificant.

He didn't care how the aquatic snake obtained this thing.

Rather, he was more interested in the fact that Natsumi Hanae had given him a gift.

Is he begging for mercy?

Using the precious supplies obtained from Xiahuo Mountain, they wanted to beg for his mercy?

We don't know what kind of supplies are inside.

Or perhaps it doesn't contain any supplies, but rather information about Mount Natsuhiko revealed by the Natsuhiko painting?

None of this is known.

However, you'll know once you open it.

There were no outsiders present. It would be even better if it were intelligence, as it would enrich our plans and allow us to destroy everything on Xiahuo Mountain with less damage.

As for whether or not I forgive Natsumi Hanae.

It's ridiculous that, having already betrayed the Summer Zaibatsu, there's no turning back now.

Ultimately, Natsumi Hanae's betrayal stemmed from his past leniency and indulgence of those two worthless bastards.

Especially now that their descendants are dwindling.

They shouldn't have promised the chance for Natsumi Hanae and Natsumi Rinrei to marry.

They should be imprisoned and allowed to have sex with anyone, so as to leave as many bloodlines as possible for the Xia family conglomerate.

To become a mere reproductive tool.

As for if the information provided by Natsume Hanae is substantial enough, he would let her die a quick and painless death after she has given birth to enough offspring. This would be the greatest and only remaining act of mercy he could show.

Xia Yuanliu slowly stood up and took the package from the water snake's hand.

As soon as he received it, he sensed something was wrong. It was clearly not a box inside, and it didn't look like it contained intelligence papers at all.

Does this mean that intelligence is a unique token?

Or perhaps there was no intelligence at all, just precious extraordinary materials.

However it may be.

Since Princess Kamishiro was present, Natsumi Yoriyuki also wanted to watch it with her, so as not to make her misunderstand that he was keeping something to himself.

Xia Yuanliu placed the package on the table.

He spoke to Princess Kamishiro.

"Lady Hime-no-Mikoto, this is a package from Hanae. I suspect its contents are related to Mount Natsuhime. Let's take a look together."

Upon hearing this, Himeko nodded.

She knew that it definitely wasn't information about Xiahuo Mountain, and even if it was, it couldn't possibly be true.

However, she was eager to find out what her mother had put inside.

"Open it."

She pursed her pink lips slightly and spoke softly.

When Xia Yuanliu heard these words, a surge of murderous intent boiled over in his light golden pupils, and a chilling aura of malevolence gradually spread.

The next moment, Xia Yuanliu's index finger transformed into a small, chilling knife.
