The sky darkened, and a breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness.
The inverted pyramid-shaped large complex building in the center of Itogami Island is the Keystone Gate.
This building also serves as the government office, with 12 floors above ground and 40 floors underground.
At the government entrance, Abel, Natsuki Minamiya, and Himeragi Yukina were waiting for Osthach to arrive.
From a dark corner, Osthach emerged, wearing a church cloak.
Abel looked at him and complained, "You're slow, Osthach."
Osthach crossed his arms, observing his surroundings, then slowly said, "There were some delays on the way."
"That's none of my business. If you're any slower, I'll go home and sleep."
Abel said indifferently, then added, "Time is tight, the task is heavy. The sooner we trade, the sooner we finish."
"Understood."
Osthach nodded, as he also wanted to finish quickly and return to the church.
Abel led the group into the Keystone Gate.
After facial recognition and entering the Keystone Gate with the highest clearance, the luxurious interior decorations contrasted sharply with the solemn atmosphere.
They walked down a long corridor.
At the same time, Abel took out his phone and called Aiba Asagi.
The call was quickly connected, and Abel said into the phone, "Little Asagi, we're already at the Keystone Gate. Please set up navigation for me and turn off all the robots along the way."
Aiba Asagi's clear voice came from the other end of the phone, "Understood, moguwai will handle the navigation."
"Mm."
After hanging up, Aiba Asagi leaned back in the chair at her computer desk, operating the computer.
"moguwai."
"Yes."
"Start navigation for that King."
"Understood."
As moguwai on the computer allocated some computing power to help Abel.
Then Aiba Asagi's curiosity resurfaced.
"moguwai, pull up the data for the Keystone Gate for me. Hmm... the very bottom floor."
"No problem."
As moguwai on the computer began to operate.
Soon, a large exclamation mark appeared on the computer screen.
"Military Secret!?"
Aiba Asagi was somewhat disbelieving.
This data was still military-grade.
Should I look at it?
Aiba Asagi's curiosity grew.
Thinking that someone had her back, Aiba Asagi unhesitatingly commanded, "moguwai, crack this program."
"You're being reckless."
moguwai on the computer said, then continued, "Alright, don't regret it."
"I won't. I'm investigating the situation for the King."
Inside the Keystone Gate.
The group walked towards the lower levels under moguwai's navigation.
Along the way, there were no patrol personnel.
All the patrol robots were leaning against the corridor, not activated.
These were all arranged by Yase Motoki, as it wouldn't be good to cause any blunders. Everything was proceeding smoothly at the moment.
As time passed little by little.
The group arrived at the very bottom floor.
As the door opened.
A room emanating a blue light appeared before their eyes. In the center, a blue transparent glass container, spiraling both upwards and downwards, held an arm.
This was the core station.
The creator of this island, Kagenami Chiro, used some dark arts to utilize the saints right arm as a'sacrificial building material'.
Using the power of this holy relic to resist the deep-sea currents.
Upon seeing the saints right arm, Osthach's tears flowed uncontrollably.
He finally... finally found it.
Osthach walked step by step towards the saints right arm, and as he drew near, he knelt down directly.
Abel looked at Osthach and sighed with emotion, "That's right, this is more like it. This is a true member of the church."
Himeragi Yukina beside him said, "I don't understand. I've never been like that anywhere in the Lion King Organization."
"You two, that's enough! This is someone else's faith!"
Natsuki Minamiya said helplessly regarding the conversation between Abel and Himeragi Yukina.
After all, mocking someone's faith is a big problem.
Suddenly, Osthach burst into laughter, his face contorted with emotion. He was heard saying, "The immortal body stolen from the Lothanlingia Sanctuary, the time has come for its return to the Sanctuary."
Saying this, Osthach solemnly took out a box and opened it.
Inside the box were strips of cloth inscribed with biblical passages.
This was the Sanctuary Church's box. He was going to take it back to the church!!
When everything was ready, Osthach knelt before Abel and bowed his head, saying, "Oh, King of the native lands, please take it out and place it in the holy box."
Abel's mouth twitched helplessly at Osthach's grand gesture.
It had to be said that believers were truly fanatical.
But compared to Irina Shido, he was still a bit lacking. That guy was so fanatical that she even bought pirated portraits.
Looking at Osthach kneeling before him, since he had performed such a grand gesture, of course, he would take it.
Abel stepped forward, came before the saints right arm, and looked at the severed hand before him, muttering inwardly, "He really takes anything."
Abel raised his hand, and space shifted.
The saints right arm, stored within, floated in the air, and under Abel's control, it quickly entered the box.
As the arm left.
The underground anchor zone vibrated slightly. The power of the holy relic was weakening, and the fluctuations of the deep-sea currents slowly became apparent.
Looking at the saints right arm in the box, Osthach solemnly wrapped it with the cloth inscribed with biblical passages.
When everything was done, Osthach breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at Abel and solemnly said again, "Thank you very much."
If he hadn't met the King, he might have just forced his way in.
"Just a transaction."
Abel said, then looked at the central control and added, "Next is the substitute."
Saying this, a green jewel appeared in Abel's hand.
As soon as it appeared, a dragon's roar echoed throughout the entire room.
"What's going on!? A dragon's roar?"
Aiba Asagi, who was watching the monitors, froze, then stared at the screen in a daze, "A dragon... a giant dragon!?"
Of course, Aiba Asagi wasn't the only one stunned.
Natsuki Minamiya, Himeragi Yukina, and Osthach were too.
"Sorry, sorry."
Abel stroked the dragon's head and apologized.
After all, he had promised to release it early, but ended up leaving it in Kamui Space for about half a year.
Hmm... adding the time from Akame ga Kill.
It was roughly half a year.
No one spoke, looking at the interaction between one person and one dragon.
After all, they didn't dare to move, didn't dare to move.
A dragon.
A creature from mythology.
After a while, Abel said to them, "This is the substitute for the saints right arm. This little fellow is a giant dragon born from the land of Greece, a spirit and child of the earth."
"It's quite good to use it as a substitute for the saints right arm."
