Danrito stood in the temple and prayed to the gods, and it was he himself who responded to Danrito.
"I am the God among gods. There is no need to pray to other gods."
Hifumi would occasionally send some photos of Peloro dolls and ask Danrito if he had any exclusive news about the collaboration with the Momo Friends series. Last time, Danrito himself told her that Huanmeng Company was negotiating a business partnership with Momo Company, so Hifumi, a Peloro fanatic, took it to heart and sent him text messages every few days to urge him to update.
"Has the linkage news been confirmed?"
"It's almost done. We are discussing the contract details."
"Please let me know if you succeed! Please give me a copy of all the collaboration products!" This is the request from Hifumi, a Peloroo enthusiast and the mastermind behind everything. "I haven't eaten Shintani in a long time. I'm hungry!"
Different from Hifumi's frequent text messages urging her to update, but similar, they came from Nomiya and Ayane from Abydos. One of them was for her own business, and the other for Abydos's business. Nomiya was interested in Huanmeng's future diversified development strategy and hoped to invest in Huanmeng's plans for commercial complexes. In her words:
"Shut up! Take my money!"
That’s about what it means.
Ayane is the person in charge who promotes the plan. In addition to constantly building a good relationship with the thousand-year-old Momo, she also does not forget to show her presence in front of Danrito and report on the progress of the Abydos Desert Resort and the business district.
"Thanks to Xiaotao's help, the resort is almost complete! All 78 single-family villas in the first phase have been delivered. As for the commercial plaza... everyone is working hard to collect materials, so I think it will be completed soon!"
"It's pretty good, what do you think, Momo?" Danrito had high expectations for Momo. Although this cartridge had not been mentioned openly so far, it had already contributed a lot to the infrastructure of Kivotos in secret. But it was made by Momo herself.
"I've become a famous figure in Millennium and Abydos now." Xiao Tao's text message interrupted. "Every day, many people hope that I can help them, although I always feel that this seems to have little to do with the game development department. The civil engineering department and the construction department next door have repeatedly asked me to join their clubs. There was even a fight over my cartridge. Fortunately, everyone was very restrained and didn't rush to grab the cartridge..."
“But I feel like every time I go to the cafeteria, the students stare at me as if they want to eat me…”
Xiao Tao made a tearful expression: "Although it's a good thing that the club's activity funds have increased, this kind of increase is really making me feel very uncomfortable..."
"In a sense, we don't have to worry about the activity room being taken back anymore." Tan Lidou laughed. "Isn't that good?"
Azusa and Danrito were exchanging text messages normally. Azusa's text messages were usually short, mostly greetings during the day and evening, and asking whether the cassette needed maintenance.
"Hello, what kind of maintenance do I need to do to play game cartridges?"
"Prevent dust from falling, keep away from water and high temperature environments, and do not remove the battery for a long time."
"?"
Azusa returned home with the cassette tape, looking bewildered. With only a few days until the signing ceremony of the Eden Treaty, she had been in a state of high tension. Although the cram school activities had concluded, the conflict between them had been resolved during the tea party with Nagisa, and the remaining task was to work with the Justice Realization Committee to ensure the signing of the Eden Treaty and protect Chairman Nagisa from assassination.
Captain Saori had contacted Azusa the other day, hoping she'd meet him again. This had her on edge, as she'd thought the previous arrangements had been leaked, leaving her unable to eat or sleep. Danrito also tried to comfort her, saying, "There's always a way out. If we're discovered, we'll be in trouble."
"What if the captain doesn't find out?"
"Why are you so worried if you haven't found anything? Eat when you need to and sleep when you need to."
Nagisa occasionally sent a text message, inviting Danrito to come to the tea party for afternoon tea. However, having afternoon tea with Nagisa did not have any special appeal to Danrito, so Danrito simply declined her invitation: "Next time for sure."
Nagisa received a text message from the other end, somewhat dissatisfied: "Really? Is it possible that Mr. Danrito's invitation to me is not attractive at all?"
"Because I'm having afternoon tea with someone much more attractive."
So the other party was bombarded with text messages.
Danrito leaned his head against the back of the chair and stuffed the whole piece of cake into his mouth comfortably. In front of him was Alona, who was also enjoying the cake with great interest, as if she had crawled out of a tablet.
"Ahh... So, Danrito, you were being too rude when eating the cake? You just swallowed it whole. Can you even taste it?"
"Sure."
"Then I won't be polite, ah... um~~~"
Looking at Alona enjoying the cake, Danrito rested his face on his hands, admiring the daily life of Holy Trinity: "This is truly the peace before the storm."
262. The Eve of Rebellion
The nights at Trinity are different from the hustle and bustle of the day. In the disciplined Trinity, nights are the time for the well-behaved children to go back to their rooms and sleep.
"You arrived a little later than usual today, Azusa."
Of course, who says there are only good kids here?
Saori's azure eyes were fixed on Azusa in front of her. Azusa came to the meeting today naturally for the final exchange of information.
The Treaty of Eden will be signed tomorrow, and if there are no further changes to the time when the Arius Academy wants to take action, it will launch an attack during tomorrow's signing period and wipe out the top leaders of both Trinity and Gehenna.
"It took a little longer to bypass the Justice Commission's sentry post. The Eden Treaty is to be signed tomorrow, so it's normal for the border to become more strict at this time."
Zi certainly has his own reasonable excuse, and it sounds like that. Tomorrow is a historic moment that will change the century-old feud between Holy Trinity and Gehenna. If Holy Trinity has not strengthened the realm in the academy at this point in time, it would really make people feel puzzled.
"Forget it, now is not the time to worry about this." Saori stared at Azusa with her eyes: "Have you got the defense map for tomorrow?"
In reality, even if Azusa answered no, Arius would still launch his attack tomorrow. Hatred for the Holy Trinity had been ingrained into their hearts through their teachings. Conversely, these Arius students were likely empty shells, devoid of anything but hatred for the Holy Trinity.
This hatred was twisted into the sole support of their hearts by the adults who taught them that they were born to hate and live in this world to suffer. Therefore, this was an inevitable offensive.
"Sorry, I only got part of it."
At the instruction of Nagisa and Hasumi, Azusa took out a part of tomorrow's defense map. Although Hasumi initially planned to take out all the defense information directly and then change all these points the next day to lure the enemy deeper, Azusa still rejected this proposal.
"If I was able to get all the information the night of the early deployment change, am I being a bit too powerful? Or does Trinity give others the impression that a small spy like me could get so much confidential information by invading it? Is its security guaranteed?"
"That's true..."
What Azusa took out now was the information about the Justice Committee's deployment around the Ancient Cathedral tomorrow. For Saori, there was indeed nothing suspicious about this information.
Upon hearing of the change in defenses, Azusa, lurking within Trinity, immediately set out to gather information. Clearly, there was a limit to what could be gathered in a single day. Therefore, focusing on the area surrounding tomorrow's signing ceremony was a very reasonable choice, and it didn't arouse Saori's suspicions.
In addition, the last time Saori came back and verified the information given by Azusa one by one, and after confirming that every one of them matched, her suspicion about whether Azusa had defected was dispelled a lot.
Saori took the information from Azusa and said, "Very good. Arius will launch an attack tomorrow. You should just wait here until the last moment before joining the main force."
The information was handed over, and Saori was about to leave when Azusa suddenly called out to him, "Captain."
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Saori looked at her.
"After destroying the Eden Pact between Trinity and Gehenna, what next?"
Azusa asked Saori, "Breaking the Pact of Eden is to make the Holy Trinity, who once expelled Arius, feel the same pain. So what should we do next?"
"...I don't know. I've never thought about this kind of thing. Since everything is nothing, what's the point of expecting anything?"
The teachings she had given Saori so far had left her with no hope for the future. Her so-called expectations, in the end, were nothing but empty promises.
Every expectation is met with more disappointment. Therefore, under that distorted education, this empty shell is filled with hatred and nothing else.
After her hopes were dashed time and time again, Saori gave up and accepted the fact, treating herself as a tool to carry out the mission. And tools only need to carry out orders again and again, so how can there be any talk of the future?
However, when it comes to expectations that will not be allowed, Saori still has one thing hidden deep in her heart, and that is Her Royal Highness the Princess who has followed the Arius team until now.
This is an unallowed hope, and it is also the driving force that has supported Saori to where she is today, apart from hatred.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
Even though years of hatred have been instilled into every part of her body and mind, can Saori really say in a clear conscience to her comrades who she has been with day and night, that everything is nothing?
"..."
Azusa shut up. She had understood everything from Saori's eyes. This was a time when words were useless and all the plans were progressing smoothly. No matter what she said now, they would be nothing but pale and powerless words. Only tomorrow, when Arius' plan to destroy peace was completely crushed, would Saori really listen to what she said.
I'm so tired, so alone
"... Anyway, things have come to this point. Even if I go back, I'll just be called a witch."
On the eve of the rebellion, many people couldn't sleep, and Shengyuan Weihua was naturally one of them.
When Arius's spies handed her the news of Saint Ya's assassination, Weihua had to understand even if she didn't want to. She seemed to have made an unprecedented mistake with these new friends.
Originally, she just wanted to teach the riddler Shengya a lesson, but who knew that her new friends would be so cruel that Weihua didn't even have a chance to apologize.
"Since I've made such a mistake, I guess I won't be forgiven no matter what I do..."
Mika's eyes were empty as he fiddled with the magazine in his hand. He inserted it into the gun, then removed it, inserted it again, and removed it again, continuing this meaningless repetition. "Now that things have come to this, even if I can only accomplish one thing..."
Things had been escalating without Weihua's knowledge. In the beginning, Weihua had just kindly found Arius' students and offered to help them return to Trinity, accept Arius again, and become a part of Trinity. This was the proposal of "let's make peace together" that Weihua had been talking about in those days.
But the more things went on, the stranger they became. The students from Arius, under the pretext of wanting to know the current development of the Trinity campus, asked Mika for a large amount of information about Trinity College.
Mika, who was so cute and naive that she felt uneasy about the world, told them all about this in one breath, like a tourist guide. She forgot that many of the things she saw as the chairperson of the tea party were completely different from those seen by ordinary students.
After hearing about the conflict between Weihua and Shengya, Arius's student proposed to help Weihua take revenge on Shengya, which was recognized by this young lady who was not concerned about the world.
Afterwards, the news that Shengya died due to the destruction of her halo reached Weihua.
After this, Mika, desperate and desperate, sets out to seize control of the Trinity Tea Party and monopolize power. Because she hates Gehenna, and since mistakes are inevitable, she'll just satisfy her desire and keep making them. It's like a child who, after making a single mistake, intends to ruin the whole thing.
Since you're going to get scolded anyway, you might as well just let go and do it.
"tomorrow……"
Weihua scratched her hair. She used to be so happy every day, but now for the first time, she found herself confused. The more she tried to explain, the deeper she was drawn into the vortex. When she came to her senses, it seemed she could no longer struggle out.
That night, everyone had their own things to do. When the sun rose the next day and a new day arrived, the agreed day also arrived.
263. Don't worry, everything is under control
There were firecrackers blasting, gongs and drums roaring, colorful flags flying, and huge crowds of people. At this important and memorable historical moment, the atmosphere at Trinity College was unprecedentedly high.
"This is the first time I've seen so many people at Trinity."
Danrito, invited as a special guest, walked across the avenue, flanked by Trinity's honor guard. The sight of these tiny students, armed with rifles and flags, seemed rather magical to Danrito.
"Today is a very important day. Not only is it the day that the peace treaty between Gehenna and Holy Trinity is signed, but it is also the day when Holy Trinity will demonstrate its strength."
Nagisa, standing next to Danrito, wasn't holding a teacup today. After all, you don't always see Nagisa at the table. For example, today, Nagisa was standing aside, dressed formally, waiting for the signing personnel from Gehenna to arrive.
"Why aren't you holding your teacup today?"
Danrito looked at Nagisa beside him, and Nagisa just chuckled and said, "Mr. Danrito, this is really a joke. I'm not glued to the coffee table~"
While Danrito and Nagisa were chatting casually, the contracted personnel from Gehenna Academy officially arrived at Trinity. Leading the group was Hina, the Gehenna Discipline Committee Chair, whom Danrito had met once before. Also accompanying them were Iori and Ako, along with their accompanying security personnel. The Gehenna Discipline Committee comprised 50 members in total.
"Wow, there are so many young ladies from Trinity here today."
Iori frowned. As a frontline soldier constantly engaged in combat, he was all too familiar with those provocative and malicious glances. "Are the ladies of the Holy Trinity truly planning to sign a peace treaty with us?"
"The chairman of the tea party has already sent us a formal document. This matter has been discussed for a long time, so it must be true."
Yazi, holding a tablet, reached out and smoothed the hair behind her ears. "But the resentment accumulated over the years can't be immediately suppressed by a peace treaty. If we want a peaceful future where Trinity and Gehenna can move forward hand in hand, it will probably take quite a while after the peace treaty is signed to achieve success."
"That's what I said, there's no such good thing."
Iori snorted, "Look at those Trinity students on the side of the road. They're not a guard of honor, they're clearly here to intimidate us. They all look like they want to punch holes in us."
"There were also students with more indifferent expressions. Not everyone hates us so much. The fact that a peace treaty was signed already means a lot."
Hinai glanced at them. After all, the feud between Gehenna and Trinity was a long history, and the sudden peace treaty must have been incomprehensible to many students. However, even in such a group, you could occasionally find students who were not particularly hostile to Gehenna.
"That's enough." Hinata nodded. "As long as there's a seed, it will eventually sprout. The signing of the Treaty of Eden merely provides the soil for the seeds of peace to sprout."
Gehenna's guests would first gather at Fountain Square, the vast, lavishly decorated plaza in front of Trinity Cathedral. This was often a good place for important speeches, as it was spacious enough and faced Trinity's most magnificent building, allowing everyone to immediately witness the strength of Trinity College.
"Dear guests who have come from afar, I am the leader of the Holy Trinity Tea Party, Kirito Nagisa, and I have been waiting for you here for a long time."
"I am the head of the Gehenna Discipline Committee, Kurosaki Hina. I have come here for the sake of peace between Gehenna and the Holy Trinity."
The two sides met and sized each other up. It was Nagisa's first time seeing the legendary Judgment Head at such a close distance. Just like the legend, she was a small figure. It was hard to imagine such a powerful strength hidden within such a petite body.
While Hina was greeting Nagisa, her eyes drifted to Danrito who was standing beside her. Although she never saw Danrito's face during the chaos that day, Hina always felt that there was something familiar about this person.
"Excuse me, who is this?" Hina turned the question to Danrito who was standing beside her.
"This is the president of Xia Lai, Mr. Danrito," Nagisa introduced to Hinata calmly. "As a neutral organization directly under the Federation Council, and a special organization independent of the Central Student Union, I can't think of anyone more suitable to be a witness."
It has connections with all students, yet is completely independent of all university districts. This is a transcendent institution that stands above all other organizations. As its ultimate controller, Danrito is undoubtedly qualified for this role.
"Tama, Hina=mulberry, Tanlito desu."
"...Hmm?" Hinata tilted her head in confusion. "What is this? Is this the greeting from the Hundred Demons Night Parade?"
"Mr. Danrito, please be serious in this situation." Nagisa felt a wave of embarrassment plastered across his face. He coughed lightly and changed the subject. "As for the signing of the Treaty of Eden, please join me at the Ancient Saint's Church..."
I'm so tired, so alone
The final signing ceremony has begun. As both parties head towards the final oath site, the enemy, as expected, finally launches an attack.
