"So, you're a lackey of Rhodes Island! No wonder you're speaking up for that traitor!" Kanna's rebuke didn't awaken these people. The deaths of their comrades along the way had long since stained their eyes with blood.
Their greatest desire now was undoubtedly to seek revenge on Rhodes Island, to seek revenge on Brozkarst... As for Ursus, having been almost annihilated by Ursus, they simply lacked the courage to trouble them.
New and old hatreds combined, everyone brandished their weapons and charged at Kanna, their eyes filled with murderous intent and their faces twisted, looking as if they wanted to tear Kanna to shreds.
"Negotiations failed. Prepare for assault!" Seeing these people's stubbornness, Kanna gave up on trying to persuade them further.
Since you choose to face death, then I'll send you on your way. At least Kanna can guarantee that dying by her hand won't involve too much pain.
"Then, enjoy it, everyone. The last journey of your lives, and your final breath..."
After an elegant bow, a bolt of lightning erupted from Kanna. The next second, she had already reached the end of the road, and all the Reunion Movement members along the way were instantly reduced to charcoal.
"Honestly, I gave you a chance, but you were useless! Don't blame me for being too harsh when you go to hell.
Oh dear, I've been out for so long, my milk must be cold by now. Everyone, may we meet again in the next life!"
With a cool flick of her hand, Kanna was about to continue muttering, but then remembered her warm milk. She stopped acting cool and vanished into thin air at the end of the street in an instant.
With a flash of lightning, Kanna returned to her seat.
"Oh, Weedy, you're here too!"
After sitting down, Kanna noticed Weedy was beside her. Having resolved the issue, she was in a good mood. She picked up her cup, ready to gulp it down to calm her excitement.
But upon picking up the cup, she found that the milk inside had disappeared.
Who!
Who drank my milk!
Kanna turned her head and spotted the prime suspect—her.
When she noticed Kanna looking at her, she was still trying to lick away the incriminating evidence from the corner of her mouth, but a trace of milk foam that hadn't been wiped away became the most powerful evidence in court.
"You drank my milk!" Kanna was furious. She hadn't expected that while she was out risking her life, she would be stabbed in the back by her dearest friends and sisters.
At this moment, she was heartbroken, but thinking that the culprit who drank her milk was still in front of her, even if she were to die the next second, she would take this dishonorable fellow down with her.
"Drinking my milk, unforgivable! Take this, Little Dragonman Pounce!" With a shout, Kanna pounced onto her like a facehugger hunting its prey.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's just a cup of milk, I'll pay, I'll pay!" At this moment, she felt a little regretful. She had thought with so many people, by the time Kanna finished, she would have perfectly disposed of the evidence. She hadn't expected Kanna to finish the battle so cleanly, returning before she could even react, leaving the crime scene uncleared and giving Kanna leverage.
"I want it now!" Kanna said, pulling her cheek with an angry expression.
"Alright, but you have to get off my head. With you sitting like this, I can't even go get you another cup..." Since she was discovered by the victim, she honestly confessed and agreed to compensation.
After she left, Kanna sat back down next to Weedy.
"Is your spell still active?" Kanna felt the fluctuations emanating from Weedy still enveloping the entire plaza and asked.
"Kanna-chan hasn't said to stop yet, has she? And this continuous casting doesn't consume much of my energy. little motty also thinks it's fine." Weedy indicated that she could continue.
"Then please bear with it a little longer. Someone needs to go clean up over there." Kanna showed a satisfied smile, watching her walk in with a full cup of steaming hot milk.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you. I'll go find Mr. Thorwald, after all, I think he's quite professional at cleaning up." After exchanging a glance with Kanna, she reluctantly and dutifully accepted the task.
After leaving Swing Plaza, she quickly found Thorwald. At this moment, he was standing at the door of his house, looking uneasy, occasionally glancing around, seemingly waiting for something.
This abnormality was naturally noticed by his father, but Thorwald was tight-lipped, only saying he was waiting for news from a friend, so Sephyrin didn't pay too much attention.
"What is Mr. Thor doing at the door? Waiting for someone or for news?" Just as Thorwald turned his head, her voice suddenly came from behind him.
Hearing a sudden voice behind him, Thorwald tensed up.
He stiffly turned his head and found that, at some point, the always mysterious Miss from Rhodes Island was standing not far behind him with a strange smile on her face.
"Cough, cough, it's Miss, after all. Isn't there a party at the plaza? Do you have something to do coming to my house?" Sephyrin came out of the house upon hearing the voice and instinctively felt something was off when he saw her.
"Good evening, old man. Nothing much, really. I just found a dead Originium Bug on the road. You know I'm just a girl, I can't stand such things, so I came to find young Thor to ask him to clean it up." She said to Sephyrin with a 'I'm so scared' expression.
"No problem, you brat. Take your gear and go with Miss Nian to clean up the bodies." As Sephyrin spoke, he actively retrieved some specialized bags for Originium creatures from inside the house.
Under Sephyrin's gaze, Thorwald followed Nian out, looking distressed.
Watching Nian and Thorwald's retreating figures, Sephyrin shook his head and closed the front door.
Meanwhile, Nian led Thorwald to the street where Kanna had fought earlier. Although it was only for an instant, the powerful lightning had left several scars across the entire street.
"Look, there are hundreds of dead bugs on this road. To prevent a riot if the civilians returning from the party accidentally step on a bug, I think it's best if Mr. Thorwald works quickly!"
Nian pointed at the scattered charred remains on the ground nearby and spoke to Thorwald with a mocking tone.
Upon closer inspection, Thorwald's face turned pale. In the darkness, he couldn't see clearly from a distance, but up close, he realized these weren't mere 'bugs' but completely carbonized human corpses.
