My destiny is to go to work in a world that is collapsing

The information given by the ferryman was correct.

Xia, who was crawling alone in the shadow, raised her head and looked into the distance through the thin mist.

The flame mark is very conspicuous in the night, and Raiden Meiyi is standing next to the mark, but has not made any movements yet.

There was no physical movement, but the girl named Raiden Mei moved her lips, as if she was speaking something to the fire seal.

Considering that the other party was able to escape for a long time despite being wanted by the city lord's palace, he should be an expert in tracking and counter-tracking. Xia carefully blocked his breath, maintained a slow speed that would not be discovered, and got closer bit by bit.

"who?!"

Thunder and Lightning Mei Yi shouted sharply.

Kasumi in the shadow suddenly stopped, but it was not because of the other party's shouting, but because he sensed another powerful aura appearing nearby without concealment. It was so powerful that Kasumi couldn't breathe. The level of resistance

"I've said it before, you can't escape."

In terms of image, the white-haired, blue-eyed visitor is similar to Raiden Meiyi in appearance and age. They both look like beautiful girls, and their voices areIt is crisp and sweet that matches her appearance, but the temperament revealed in her words and deeds appears to be much more mature and powerful.

"I didn’t expect that you would take action yourself."

Leiden Meiyi showed a solemn expression, and she slowly distanced herself from the other party.

All these body movements proved that the person coming was powerful, which made Leiden Meiyi feel extremely fearful.

"You have been with me for so long, so you should know my temperament best. If a problem can be solved through conspiracy, I will never use such a petty thing as conspiracy. What's more, in terms of concealment and tracking alone, I'm afraid your strength is not as good as mine."

"But you still found me"

"That's just a small advantage of the [Heavenly Humanity] curse seal."

"Is there some degree of induction between the curse seal and the curse seal... I see."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Xia Xia quickly analyzed the relevant information.

Sakurabuki was buried in the snow, with three thousand white hair. The leaves fell on the ruthless place, and the smoke was filled with dust.

It was obvious that the person who came was the person who was rumored to have lived for hundreds of years. The year-old Yunchen City Lord [Karen].

As the name of the city lord, Kallen is rarely used anymore. Under her accumulated majesty, people all call her the Yunchen City Lord with respect and fear. The ferryman is right. Wrong, Leiden Meiyi should indeed have a curse seal, and the Lord of Yunchen City also has one.

This situation is very difficult.

Just getting the curse seal from Leiden Meiyi is difficult enough, plus the curse seal and The problem of mutual induction between curse seals, Xia discovered that she would have to face the Lord of Yunchen City who had a curse seal himself. What should she do?

While Xia further lowered her breathing and fell into thinking, Leiden Meiyi and The conversation with City Lord Yunchen continues

"I have given you the answer you want to know, so now, are you going to run away or come back with me?"

Their conversation did not last long. In just a few breaths, the topic had come to an end. When the clouds in the sky temporarily covered up the moonlight with the night wind, Leiden Meiyi turned to the visitor without hesitation. He fled in the opposite direction.

This development seemed to be expected by City Lord Yunchen.

"It was really an easy escape. She doesn't worry about me directly destroying this pillar of fire... What a cunning girl, if I do this, she can buy time to disappear without a trace again. No matter what, what's the point of catching the person first and then prying the fire seal out of her mouth."

After saying that, City Lord Yunchen no longer hesitated and chased in the direction where Leiden Meiyi had escaped, leaving only the conspicuous fire mark standing there alone.

Even as he watched City Lord Yunchen gradually disappear from sight, Xia Xia He did not show up immediately to explore the fire seal that obviously contained a secret, but continued to hide it for a while. It was not until he was completely sure that City Master Yunchen was really far away that Xia Fang approached the fire seal.

Only when he got closer did he realize that the fire seal was in the fire seal. There is a mechanical puppet.

Although many places in Yae Town look retro, it is still modern after all. After seeing the mechanical puppet, Yae Sakura was not too surprised.

"This Titan... ahem, this mechanical puppet is the work of Raiden Ryoma. The detailed model name is [Bitter World Puppet]]"

The sudden voice made Xia's body tense up. After she reacted, her tense body relaxed again and she turned around to look at the speaker.

"Ferryman, you should not be personally involved in this mission. If Kallen, the Lord of Yunchen City, discovers our existence and captures us, the Tianming Headquarters will not even be able to receive the news of the mission failure."

"There is no need to take things in such a bad direction. In fact, you have never noticed my aura before, right? And Karen didn't notice your presence."

The ferryman addressed City Lord Yunchen a little differently, calling him by his first name.

Is it a lack of respect for this famous City Lord, or some other reason?

Xia has no intention of exploring.

"What should I do with this puppet? Such a large volume cannot be brought back to Yaemachi Castle without attracting attention."

"Leave it alone"

"？！"

This answer made Kasumi look surprised.

Hua Yi explained while looking at the puppet in front of him.

"It cannot be said that these things in front of you are all useless waste, but in fact, whether they are puppets or fire seals, they have nothing to do with the real curse seal."

"That's right, with the wisdom of Leiden Meiyi who was able to escape from the wanted city lord's mansion for a long time, even if the situation was urgent, he would not directly throw away precious items such as curse seals. So, today’s mission is considered a failure?"

"It didn't fail, at least I explored the nature of the soul that can be driven by [Hell Realm] a little bit. In addition, we should also see how far the former leader of the shadow guards can struggle in the hands of the city lord, so that we can help if necessary."

"……"

This time, the ferryman used the honorific title"Sir".

However, compared to the meaning of respect, I feel that there is more interest in his words.

Even after City Lord Yunchen showed such a powerful momentum, could the ferryman still be so calm and composed, even leisurely?

Xia was silent for a moment and nodded.

"good."
