Crystal Palace from Infinite Anime

"And that man is a playboy. Besides you, he's surrounded by several other women, including a Taimanin. And just before I came to the rooftop, I found him doing that kind of thing with some unknown woman. The woman was screaming in ecstasy, saying, 'Husband, don't do it! Ah, husband, I can't take it anymore!' Hehe..."

While telling all this to Ingrid in a mocking tone, Kogawa Oboro raised one hand to cover his mouth and laughed so hard that his body shook.

Ingrid took two steps back, putting some distance between herself and Kogawa Oboro, then looked Kogawa Oboro up and down at him.

Because he was once a Taimanin, the uniform he wears is not much different from the uniforms worn by the Taimanin at Goguruma Academy today. They are both tight-fitting, one-piece styles with mesh designs in some places.

Kougawa Oboro, like the color of her battle armor, is a rose-red—a charming thorn. Her short purple hair and seemingly stern yet naturally charming face bear a striking resemblance to the secretary from the classic Thunderfire Sword novel "The Eccentric Cult," whose minor role is nonetheless incredibly popular. To be honest, perhaps the author of "The Eccentric Cult" more or less drew inspiration from Kougawa Oboro's image when portraying that secretary.

…Back to the topic.

In addition to wearing a battle suit, Kogawa Oboro also had grappling claws on his forearms.

With such outfit, it is clear that he is ready to fight at any time!

"What do you want from me? Tell me now! If you are here to cause trouble, I can only say that you are courting death." Ingrid said coldly to Kogawa Oboro.

"Seeking your own death?" Kogawa Oboro raised a hand in front of him and licked the coldly gleaming claws on the back of his hand with his tongue. His eyes were filled with a mad smile. "Are you saying you're going to betray the organization for that man? Or do you think that man can easily deal with me?"

"...You'd better leave quickly. This is my last advice to you." Ingrid said with a serious expression.

Kogawa Oboro narrowed his eyes, but still maintained a crazy smile on his face. One hand suddenly reached out to his crotch, and while touching himself, he said to Ingrid:

"Oh my, are you afraid that I'll get a piece of the pie too? After all, that man already has so many women around him, and it seems like you wouldn't need one more. If I join in, wouldn't your chances of being favored be even smaller... Hey, why did your face turn darker again? Could I be right? No way, no way? Hehe..."

Chapter 45: It’s Kogawa Haboro! Not Haboro!

Under Kogawa Oboro's sarcasm, Ingrid finally lost her patience and suddenly a long sword appeared in her hand, as if she was ready to attack Kogawa Oboro at any time.

"Oh my~~ Are you anxious already? It seems I was right!" Kogawa Oboro was undaunted. He even laughed even more arrogantly and louder as he spoke to Ingrid, "This is really surprising! Ingrid, the Demon Knight known for her loyalty, would actually betray the organization for an outsider and prepare to attack her colleagues? Hahahaha, interesting, really interesting!"

Seeing that Kogawa Oboro was still beeping, Ingrid's sword ignited with flames and was about to attack Kogawa Oboro.

At this time, Kogawa Oboro accurately hit the spot and changed the subject:

"But I came to you this time not to fight with you, but to confirm something with you."

Ingrid, who was about to take action, frowned and said impatiently, "I'll give you one last chance to organize your words!"

Kogawa Oboro then stepped back repeatedly, pretending to be terrified and saying, "Oh my god, you're so fierce! You're scaring me to death!"

The words that were so coquettish that they made people feel uncomfortable had just fallen when the expression on Kogawa Oboro's face quickly changed from fear to a smile.

She looked at Ingrid deeply, and suddenly said:

"So that man is the one you mentioned to me back then and asked you to look after me, right?"

As Kogawa Oboro asked this crucial question, Ingrid's eyes instantly became sharp.

At this moment, she looked at Kogawa Oboro and suddenly realized that the smile on Kogawa Oboro's face was no longer sarcastic or crazy, but only calm and wise.

………………

Many years ago.

This was the era when Goche Academy had not yet been established and the Taimanin were still fighting on their own.

At that time, Kogawa Habo was still a true Taimanin.

One day, the Koga clan, to which Koga Haboro came from, was attacked by Black and his followers. No one in the clan survived except Koga Haboro and the eldest daughter of the Koga family named "Asuka".

——This is a fixed plot in almost every parallel universe of Taimanin.

In this plot, it was because of the courageous step forward of Kougawa Oboro, Kougawa Asuka's aunt and guardian, that the young eldest daughter of the Kougawa family was able to survive the attack by Black and his gang.

However, Kogawa Oboro paid a heavy price for this.

With her abilities, she actually had a chance to escape.

But just to save Asuka, she stood up and challenged an impossible opponent.

And this opponent is naturally Black.

In the most well-known Taimanin series "Taimanin Asha 1-4", we can see that Oboro in the animation is a complete bad woman and was even killed by Asha.

However, Oboro was not actually evil at first. As a Taimanin, she and Asha only had some ideological conflicts and personality incompatibilities, but she was not so eager to take Asha's life.

However, after failing to protect Kougawa Asuka from Black, Kougawa Oboro's body was taken back to the Demon Realm as Black's "trophy" for transformation. Thus, the dead Kougawa Oboro was resurrected, but after being transformed by the Demon Realm's medical skills, she was completely transformed and became extremely evil.

The Oboro in the anime plot is actually an evil Oboro who had died once and was transformed when he first appeared.

So after being killed and then resurrected, that was actually a second resurrection...

Well, it's very tragic. You can't even rest in peace after death.

If Lin Zhiyu hadn't played several Taimanin games, he wouldn't have known that Oboro's full name was Kogawa Oboro, and that he had such a tragic past...

It was for this reason that after traveling back in time and saving the teenage Ingrid, Lin Zhiyu suddenly had the idea to ask Ingrid to help look after a woman named Kogawa Oboro from the Kogawa clan in the future.

So it is natural that the story of Kogawa Oboro has changed.

This classic Taimanin series villain actually had a different storyline when he was killed by Black and his body was transformed by demonic medicine. In the earliest and most well-known version (the game "Taimanin Asha-ki" 1-2), Kogawa Oboro was transformed into the evil Oboro, and that was it.

In the setting of the game Taimanin RPG, it is said that Kogawa Oboro knows a secret technique of escaping from his body and reincarnating his soul. Before his body was transformed after death, his soul had already left his body and attached itself to another woman. So in the plot of Taimanin RPG, there are two Oboros, one is the authentic evil Oboro in the flesh, and the other is the authentic "Fake Taimanin - Kogawa Oboro" in the soul.

However, in the world that Lin Zhiyu is currently experiencing, it is obvious that Kogawa Oboro's story is not any known version.

Because of all this, Ingrid intervened.

As Black's trusted general and a knight with the responsibility to protect his lord, Ingrid had sufficient reasons to stand up and challenge Kogawa Oboro when Kogawa Oboro challenged Black.

For Kogawa Oboro at that time, Ingrid was certainly a difficult opponent to defeat, but it was better than facing Black directly.

Thus, an extremely fierce battle broke out between Kogawa Oboro and Ingrid.

Kogawa Oboro was no match for Ingrid and was defeated by her. However, because Ingrid had promised Lin Zhiyu to take care of Kogawa Oboro, she did not kill him on the spot.

Black naturally noticed some clues, and Ingrid also knew that if she didn't explain anything, she would not be able to pass Black's level. So after defeating Kogawa Oboro, she objectively praised Kogawa Oboro's courage to challenge the strong and his indeed impressive strength, and advised Black to take Kogawa Oboro under his command.

Black had this intention originally, but he planned to do it by transforming Kogawa Oboro's body.

Because of Ingrid's intervention, Black finally did not choose to kill Kogawa Oboro and then transform the corpse. Instead, he asked his magic doctor, Foster, a senior cadre of Nomad, to carefully develop a special potion that could transform the human brain and body.

Therefore, Kogawa Oboro still couldn't escape the fate of being transformed, but it was just by taking magic potions instead of having his corpse tormented by others.

Ingrid...at least tried her best to preserve Kogawa Oboro's dignity and chastity.

After that, Nomad gained a powerful cadre named "Oboro".

Because of the influence of the potion, the once clear-cut, calm and wise Kogawa Oboro has turned into a crazy and evil Oboro. This is not a disguise, but it is just a side that Oboro deliberately shows to the outside world.

And the other side hidden in her heart is a sea of ​​red blood!

It's a deep blood feud!

It is the endless hatred for deep hatred!

Endless anger!

Chapter 46: Shura Field? I, Kadian, will not agree to this!

When the ridicule and madness on Kogawa Oboro's face faded away, what remained was more than just calmness and wisdom.

She is suppressing it.

She has been suppressing herself for a long time.

She used wanton madness as a way to vent her feelings, and it was also a disguise, but something had been weighing on her heart for far too long, and she could never release it...

Ingrid had never noticed any of this before.

It was not until this moment today that she suddenly realized that the drug transformation of Kogawa Oboro might not have been successful!

As if they were meeting for the first time, Ingrid stared intently at Kogawa Oboro who was standing in front of her. Although Kogawa Oboro did not show any hatred, Ingrid could feel the hatred in Kogawa Oboro's eyes that was not revealed at all.

This hatred was not directed at Ingrid, but at Nomad, the clan to which Ingrid belonged, and at Black, who had founded Nomad and wiped out the Kogawa clan many years ago.

"Oboro, you..." Ingrid hesitated to speak.

"Hahahaha, yes, you must have guessed it, right?"

After being silent for only a few seconds, Kogawa Oboro suddenly opened his eyes wide again, revealing an exaggerated clown-like smile on his face. His mouth opened wide and a loud voice came out of his mouth:

"I'm pretending! I've been pretending all these years! Just waiting for an opportunity to chop off our good master, Lord Black, from head to tail! Cut it open! Chop it into pieces! Hahahaha, hahahaha!"

After such a series of laughter, Kogawa Oboro slowly calmed down again and moved closer to Ingrid again. He raised one hand and stroked Ingrid's cheek, and said to her softly:

"You are Black's trusted general, but now even you have left Nomad. And the man who prompted you to make this choice is a man that even Ingrid is willing to devote herself to?

"In fact, it's not just you and those Taimanin.

"Based on my prior research, I also know that even the Iron Witch of Amidahara and the Hellfire Queen of the Hellfire Clan—so many of you have gathered around that man. It can't be just because he's handsome, right?"

…Ingrid fell silent.

At this moment, her heart was extremely complicated.

On the one hand, she felt that the drug modification of Kogawa Oboro was indeed unsuccessful, otherwise Kogawa Oboro should have obeyed Black's orders. Why would he threaten to kill Black like he is now?

On the other hand, when Kogawa Oboro talked about wanting revenge on Black, he acted too crazy.

The way she laughed wildly for a moment and then calmed down suddenly gave people the feeling that she was actually crazier than the non-stop madness from beginning to end.

"It seems that the original drug modification did affect her mind, but it failed to erase the blood feud in her heart." Ingrid made a silent judgment.

While Ingrid was thinking, Kogawa Oboro continued to talk to himself:

"Perhaps this is God's will! If Lord Black hadn't ordered me to investigate Astaroth's recent movements, I wouldn't have come all the way here, let alone received such a big surprise!

"I know everything! I know everything! I've checked it all out!

"That battle that took place on the outskirts of the city almost two weeks ago! Even Astaroth couldn't handle the opponent! It must be that man, right?"

As he spoke, a gleam of light shone in Kogawa Oboro's eyes, and it grew brighter and brighter.

Now it was Ingrid's turn to take a few steps back and create some distance between herself and Kogawa Oboro.

She frowned and asked Long, "Even if what you said is true, so what? You don't even know Lin Zhiyu, right?"

After listening to what Koga Oboro had just said, Ingrid was certain that Koga Oboro didn't know Lin Zhiyu. Although this made her wonder why Lin Zhiyu had asked her to help take care of Koga Oboro back then, Koga Oboro clearly didn't even know Lin Zhiyu.

Kogawa Oboro did not refute Ingrid's question.

She smiled triumphantly, her tongue sticking out slightly from her mouth, licking her lower lip and saying with a wicked look on her face:

"I'll be meeting him soon. Is Lin Zhiyu his name? Although there's a surname called Lin in Japan, the name Lin Zhiyu sounds like something from Zhonglian.

"Haha, the mysterious and handsome boy from the Eastern Divine Land~~ Since he asked you to look after me for some reason, it means he has good intentions towards me. For this reason, even if I offer him this body that has been waiting to be developed for many years, what's the problem?

"After all, he seems to be very lustful. In order to repay my kindness, I can satisfy him in this regard. Hahaha~~"

With a villainous laugh, Kogawa Oboro once again licked the hook on her forearm with his tongue, and he licked it very slowly, very seductively, and very alluringly.

It was as if she was already tasting Lin Zhiyu's big cock.

This once again made Ingrid want to beat up Kogawa Oboro - she didn't know why, but she just felt that Kogawa Oboro deserved a beating at this moment and must be taught a lesson!

Ingrid didn't have time to do anything when she thought of this.

"Shua~!"

Suddenly, a firebird as big as a millstone swooped down from the flank of her and Long, targeting Long as its main target.

Ingrid and Kogawa Oboro reacted extremely quickly. They jumped back almost in sync, creating a gap between them, causing the flying firebird to miss and fly between them to the other side.

After dodging the sudden attack, Ingrid and Kogawa Oboro looked around, but did not find the attacker at first.

Then, after a moment, the two of them looked up at the sky, sensing something.

"Huh~ You actually dodged it, you slutty bitch, you do have some skills."

Floating in the air seven or eight meters above the rooftop, right above Ingrid and Kogawa Oboro, Astaroth's long fiery red hair fluttered in the wind.

She lowered her head and stared at Kogawa Oboro with contempt, and her voice was carried by the wind to Kogawa Oboro's ears below.

"The Queen of Hellfire, Astaroth..." Kogawa Oboro tensed her body and was ready to fight with all her might at any time. She stared at Astaroth floating in the air with a serious expression and felt full of hostility from Astaroth.
