CHAPTER 142 - ONMYOJI SERVES! PRINCESS VIVI!

On the rooftop, thirteen people stood there. Each had different hair colors, physiques, and dressing styles. They were the highest-ranking of The Twelve Heavenly Generals in the Onmyoji Alliance, and the leader of the Onmyoji Alliance.

The leader of the Onmyoji Alliance, Tsuchimikado Arima, and some of The Twelve Heavenly Generals were present: Narumi Ioroi, Byakko Seigen Amakawa, Suzaku Shimon Ikaruga, Genbu Norikata Kurumayashiki, Seiryu Kankuro Suidosaka, Rokugo Sakura Sasuga, Kijin Tenma Karasuma, Tenko Subaru Mitosaka, Taion Miku Sazanami, Tenku Cordelia Kasukami, and Taiin Sayo Kasukami.

The strongest Onmyoji forces were gathered here to meet the one who eradicated Magano and cleansed the Impurity: Ren.

"You all came quite early."

The pupils of the thirteen people suddenly constricted. They hadn't noticed when a student had appeared before them. In a mere moment of shock, Tsuchimikado Arima had already lowered himself to the humblest posture, greeting him with a smile.

"Greetings, Lord Ren. My name is Tsuchimikado Arima, leader of the Onmyoji Alliance."

Initially, these Heavenly Generals didn't believe that anyone could truly be powerful enough to destroy the entire Magano. More or less, some of them carried a hint of disdain, even eagerness to challenge him.

But, the moment they saw Ren, they understood that everything was the truth. They couldn't be mistaken; the young man before them possessed an unrivaled power. In reality, this was merely what Ren wanted them to see. He was someone who disliked trouble.

I've shown my power, and you're still not convinced? No need for further talk, see you in the next life. The sooner you die, the better. Don't cause trouble.

Sweeping his gaze across all their faces, Ren revealed a satisfied smile. At least they were all smart people. No troublemakers stepped forward.

Ren: "State your business."

Tsuchimikado Arima bowed slightly: "We are here specifically to thank Lord Ren for clearing Magano and the Impurity, and for saving Lord Abe no Seimei."

Ren heard the peculiar meaning in his words, which was nothing more than an inquiry about Abe no Seimei's condition.

"Hmm, Abe no Seimei is doing very well at my house."

Tsuchimikado Arima bowed his head: "Yes." He had finished what he needed to say; now it was Ren's turn.

"You said you wanted to thank me, and indeed, I do have something I need."

"Please speak, Lord Ren."

"Onmyoji, serve me."

!!!

The Heavenly Generals' spirits jolted. Suddenly asking them to serve him, how could that be possible?

"You have no right to choose." With a cold voice, starlight had already appeared in Ren's eyes.

"Master!" In an instant, all thirteen people simultaneously knelt on one knee.

An indescribable feeling filled their minds. They had already understood their current situation. It was as if they had been branded with the mark of a Shikigami. They had thoughts, yet they had to obey Ren.

"Don't worry, I won't make the Onmyoji do anything evil."

Ren withdrew his star-like eyes and spoke eloquently: "I only ask one thing of you: no Onmyoji is allowed to display their power in front of ordinary people."

"Can you do that?"

The thirteen people said in unison: "Yes!"

"Then you're dismissed. Oh, right, also, have your people keep an eye out for unusual things and report them to me if you find any."

Leaving that remark, Ren left the rooftop.

The thirteen people stood up. "Oh dear, this is truly losing the wife and losing the army." Tsuchimikado Arima seemed to sigh, but the smile at the corner of his mouth did not stop.

"At least, his command doesn't violate our principles." This was a sentiment that all The Twelve Heavenly Generals agreed with in their hearts.

...

Taking in the Onmyoji was part of his plan. On one hand, it could restrict the actions of the Onmyoji, thereby slowing down the progression of the Cognitive Doomsday. On the other hand, he could also use the power of the Onmyoji to search for anomalies or newly emerging cognitions.

...

*****

After school, Ren said goodbye to Yukino, Eriri, and the others, and did not go home. He applied to Nami for Crossing permission.

Not only Shinobu Kocho and the others, but Nami also needed care.

Private chat channel.

Ren: "Nami, please approve the permission. I'm coming over to your side."

Nami: "Now? Is it urgent?"

Ren: "It's quite urgent."

Nami: "...Alright!"

Urgent? Being urgent to see Nami should also count as urgent, right?

...

However, when Ren crossed over, he was stunned. Before him were two naked, beautiful bodies.

Nojiko's figure had long matured, and she was a fair-skinned Nojiko.

Ever since Arlong was killed, Nami also began to take care of herself. She had already grown out her long hair.

Perhaps due to Ren's nourishment, her figure had begun to develop towards her appearance two years later. Compared to her initial youthfulness, she had gained a touch of sexiness.

Looking around, there was water, a shower, and a bathtub. So... this was the bathroom.

Nami's question about urgency earlier was because she and Nojiko were bathing?

"This... I..." Nojiko was momentarily stunned by Ren's sudden appearance.

"Ren, is there something urgent?" Nami no longer cared about so much. Since Ren said it was urgent, there must be something urgent to deal with. Nojiko was just seen, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Nami approached, her waves (Oppai) bouncing. Ren's eyes didn't leave the waves (Oppai) as he stammered, "I actually wanted to say... I was in a hurry to see you..."

"..."

After a brief silence, "Huh?!" Nami burst out with ultimate confusion.

*****

A moment later, Ren sat in the room. Nami and Nojiko came out of the bathroom, dressed.

Nami glared at Ren. She walked towards the room on her own.

She gave Nojiko an apologetic look: "Sorry."

"It's okay." Nojiko blushed and covered her mouth, chuckling: "Ren-san should think about how to coax Nami."

"Uh..." Ren stood up with a bitter smile. He entered Nami's room. Closed the door.

Nojiko stood outside the door for a short while. At first, it was just simple conversation, but soon the sounds changed.

Immediately, a black line appeared on Nojiko's forehead. "This is how he coaxes Nami?"

Nojiko was filled with curiosity. Unable to resist, she secretly peeked through the gap in the wooden door.

"Hiss!" Nojiko instantly gasped, truly an eye-opener for Nojiko! But her feet couldn't move either.

...

"Nami." Ren softly called out to Nami, who was smiling and had hazy eyes.

Nami leaned back against Ren, gently turned her head, and raised her right hand to caress Ren's cheek.

He thought for a moment, then decided to tell her some things, whispering in her ear: "Your sister is doing this outside."

"?" Nami wondered what her sister was doing. Ren demonstrated it on Nami.

"Ah?" It instantly made Nami understand what he meant.

Releasing Observation Haki, she also felt Nojiko's actions.

"..." Not only was her own sister peeking, but she was also using her to enhance her meal? Is this good?

This made Nami feel somewhat awkward. Glancing at the man behind her, Nami finally rolled her eyes: "Let her be, let's continue."

"Slap!" Ren lightly patted her perky bottom, saying with a wry smile: "Don't continue yet, no matter how enjoyable it is, we can't let it interfere with important matters. Check the Chat Group."

"Chat Group?" Nami blinked in confusion, then opened the Chat Group as Ren instructed.

*****

A large notification was pinned at the top.

"Ding! Miss Wednesday has joined the Chat Group!"

Miss Wednesday: "Is this a new thing from Baroque Works?"

March 7th: "Welcome to the Doomsday Chat Group!"

Chiharu: "Welcome."

Miss Wednesday: "What does Doomsday Chat Group mean?"

Bronya: "Simply put, it's an information exchange hub for worlds experiencing doomsday..."

Miss Wednesday: "Doomsday!"

Saeko Busujima: "Regarding doomsday information, you can see it in your personal profile."

Ren's eyes lit up; it seemed Saeko had almost fully recovered. He switched to Saeko's private channel.

Ren: "Saeko, how's your body?"

Saeko Busujima: "Ren, my body has fully recovered."

Ren: "What about Rei?"

Saeko Busujima: "Rei is also completely fine. After all, she has some of Ren's angelic power, it's just that she's a bit thin-skinned and always blushes when facing others' strange gazes."

Ren: "Well, the commotion yesterday was too big after all."

Of course, he had intentionally not controlled his voice.

Saeko Busujima: "Mm. Shizuka-sensei and the others have decided to live with us. Order is slowly being restored here, and we're practically a family now."

Ren: "Are you hinting at something?"

Saeko Busujima: "No, I just think they all have ideas about Ren."

Ren: "You... pushing your man to others, won't you get jealous?"

Saeko Busujima: "I just believe that I alone cannot satisfy Ren. As Ren's woman, I want you to be satisfied."

Ren: "You really make me unable to leave you, so gentle, like a Yamato Nadeshiko."

Saeko Busujima: "Please never leave me."

Ren: "Never."

Saeko Busujima: "I'm very happy. Oh, right, Ren, what do you think of that newcomer?"

Ren: "I have a slight guess." The name Miss Wednesday made him have a slight guess.

Ren glanced at Nami: "This newcomer is very likely from the same world as you."

Nami let Ren play with her softness, her large eyes showing some surprise: "From my world?"

The doomsday information Miss Wednesday sent in the group further solidified this guess.

Miss Wednesday: "Abnormal Doomsday (4 stars), that's how it's displayed."

It was the same as what was displayed in Nami's information.

Miss Wednesday: "Is there really a doomsday?"

Ren: "If it's Abnormal Doomsday. Have you found any anomalies there?"

In the desert, the blue-haired girl gritted her teeth. She didn't know whether to believe this so-called Doomsday Chat Group. Could it be that Baroque Works had discovered her identity and wanted to use this method to expose her?

How should she answer...

After a brief deliberation, she decided to continue doing her duty under her current identity.

Miss Wednesday: "Anomaly? I don't know, we're currently in the process of destroying a country."

Tushan Honghong: "Eh! Destroying a country, is the newcomer a bad person?"

Momonga: "Can destructive elements also join the group?"

Ren looked at Momonga's words and really wanted to retort. Old Bone himself was a big destructive element, wasn't he?

Of course, the current Momonga was not Old Bone, so they couldn't be lumped together.

Esdeath: "Destroying a country, quite bold."

Esdeath: "So, how far have you gotten?"

Miss Wednesday: "..."

Miss Wednesday: "We turned a country into a desert, that's our power!"

Esdeath: "Special ability? I'm very interested in your power."

Ren: "..." Ren had already seen through Miss Wednesday, her disguise.

Ren: "Alright, stop pretending, Princess Vivi, isn't it?"

Vivi's eyes narrowed, and she nervously clutched her small hands.

"Have I been discovered?"

"No! Absolutely cannot admit it!"

Miss Wednesday: "Princess Vivi? She's the princess of the kingdom we're going to destroy."

Ren's mouth twitched; her vigilance was truly strong.

Ren: "You are Princess Vivi, Nefertari D. Vivi, the princess of Alabasta Kingdom, disguised in Baroque Works to investigate the mastermind behind the destruction of the kingdom."
