When she reappeared, Tamamo-no-Mae had already reached the top of the high wall.

Not far from her stood a stunningly beautiful young woman, issuing orders.

Her long, gray-white hair swayed in the wind, and her noble, snow-white robe was trimmed with gold thread, the patterns resembling clusters of clouds.

Her graceful and exquisite figure, even when concealed by the robe, could not hide its curves and fullness.

And those pure white eyes exuded a sense of justice and perseverance, inspiring endless fighting spirit.

That was the daughter of royalty…

—Himeko-sama!

At its peak, the royal family had three A-level members.

However, a hundred years ago, many forces were dissatisfied with the royal family being constantly suppressed above them. So they took advantage of the opportunity when two A-level members went out, and were attacked by many forces. One A-level member of the royal family died, and the other two were seriously injured.

And killed several peak B-rank fighters.

Even now, the royal family has not yet recovered its strength.

even……

It has declined somewhat.

Of Kamishiro Himeko's three elder brothers, one had no special abilities at all, while the other's special abilities barely reached the C-rank and he had no talent whatsoever.

Only the elderly father, who was only grade A, was left, barely clinging to life, his days numbered.

The only hope for the royal family was Princess Kamishiro.

At only eighteen years old, she had already reached the mid-stage of B-level just one month prior.

With the strong support of royal resources, it is highly likely that he will reach level A in his lifetime, allowing the royal family to regain its former glory.

To be honest, Tamamo-no-Mae vaguely saw the shadow of Natsuhime in this Kamishiro-hime-no-Mikoto.

The fact that Tamamo was moved to the position of Saiō was also the work of this Kamishiro-hime-no-Mikoto.

The royal family craves all kinds of talented individuals with special abilities, but unfortunately, those with sound values ​​are already among other factions.

After finally discovering Tamamo-no-Mae, and observing her for several years to ensure she was safe, Princess Kamishiro immediately offered her the position of Prince Sai, intending to bring Tamamo-no-Mae under her wing.

Unfortunately, Tamamo-no-Mae did not agree.

Because she is already in the shape of a summer flower painting.

However, although she did not agree, Tamamo-no-Mae made a deal with Kamishiro-hime: she could help Kamishiro-hime with tasks as long as her strength allowed and she did not violate any principles.

When Himeko sensed the power fluctuations behind her, she immediately turned around and saw Tamamo-no-Mae.

A hint of joy shone in her pure white eyes.

"You came."

Upon hearing this, Tamamo-no-Mae paused slightly before responding.

"Well, I'm here."

Then, knowing that Tamamo-no-Mae had just arrived and might not know the general situation, Kamishiro-hime-no-Mikoto took the initiative to introduce the situation.

“I commanded an earth-elemental ability user to build this high wall.”

"Although it cannot defend against high-level superhumans, it can be very effective against cultists who act as human walls."

"To prevent them from directly threatening the people in the city."

The believers who drank the diluted divine blood, though fearless and possessing astonishing vitality, also experienced an increase in strength.

However, it is still far inferior to the attack power of those with superpowers.

Therefore, Himeko's choice was quite correct.

Upon hearing this, Tamamo-no-Mae nodded.

Then she looked out of the high wall.

The ground was a sea of ​​people, with rivers of blood flowing everywhere, as countless superpowered individuals used their various abilities—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple—to indiscriminately attack the ground.

Countless soldiers pulled the triggers, their guns spitting fire incessantly.

Yes, there are guns in this world; they are used to provide security for humans without superpowers.

Furthermore, firearms are incredibly effective against some physically weak superhumans, but their effectiveness is absurdly low against superhumans of C rank or higher.

Nowadays, guns can also be quite effective against these cult members.

Although believers have amazing vitality, their defense is not very good. As long as they are maimed, there is no need to worry about them.

What's disgusting is that there are quite a few people with superpowers mixed in with the believers.

They often use believers as human walls to launch counterattacks.

It caused casualties to our side.

Furthermore, this number of casualties is rapidly increasing as bullets dwindle and the human wall continues to advance.

The battle intensified, becoming extremely fierce, with casualties on both sides rising steadily.

Seeing this, Tamamo-no-Mae was somewhat puzzled.

"Ji Ming, isn't the number of superhumans and soldiers sent by the royal family a bit small?"

Kamishiro Himeko pursed her pink lips and said softly.

"A lot."

“Prince Zhai, don’t forget that besides this city, several other cities have also experienced riots.”

"That place also needs the help of the royal family."

Indeed, Himeko-no-Mikoto divided her forces.

She is the embodiment of justice for the royal family and the embodiment of righteousness for the world.

Justice and righteousness do not discriminate based on status or wealth; they should be applied equally in Kyoto and other cities.

Princess Kamishiro harbored ambitions.

She wanted to bring the royal family back to its former glory.

And reputation is indispensable.

If I can handle everything well during this uprising of the Pure Land cult, the prestige of the royal family will be re-established.

And she will bring a new order to this land.

Tamamo-no-Mae also snapped out of her daze at this moment, having been struck by Kamishiro-hime's words.

No wonder the other party needed her help.

If the royal family's goal is simply to defend Kyoto, then they don't need her help; their sheer numbers and the sheer number of supernatural beings are enough to overwhelm the attacking Elysium True Confucianism.

However, if they were to split their forces, they might not be able to defeat their opponent.

Moreover, according to the news that came in...

The leader of the Pure Land Confucianism, Shindai Naraku, is also a mid-level B-rank cultivator.

In this way, the strength of the two sides is almost equal, and it is reasonable for Himeko-sama to need the assistance of Ryuko Shrine in order to prevent too many casualties.

Moreover, the goal of the Gokuraku Shinryo sect is very likely also aimed at the Ryuko Shrine.

Since their interests align, they should unite against the enemy.

And just then.

On the distant horizon, four cultists wearing hideous demon masks carried a blood-red sedan chair and strode briskly toward the high wall.

Chapter 81: The Two Kind-Hearted Sisters in Summer

Summer at the family residence.

The door to the private ward slowly closed.

Natsumi Genryu's pale golden pupils flickered slightly as he looked at Natsumi Hanae and the other two. He took a deep breath, and his expression gradually calmed down.

He knew how well the room was soundproofed.

At the same time, this is the summer residence, and because of its secrecy, one's life is absolutely guaranteed.

There's no need to worry about the three people causing him any harm.

The reason he was shouting was simply because, faced with his pride, he didn't want anyone to see him in his current state. Let alone let those two bastards, Natsumi Rinrei and Natsumi Hanae, see him.

Xia Rixuanlong narrowed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and spoke.

"how?"

"You two are here to laugh at me, aren't you?"

"Are you mocking me for becoming this pathetic?"
