Chapter 136 - Chapter 136 Humanity: I'm So Scared, There's a Cannon Aiming at me

Zeus, the god of gods in Greek mythology, similar to Odin in another mythology.

Since this world had Athena, and even Hades, then Zeus must also exist.

Perhaps...

Even Gaia existed in this world!

The Earth Goddess... also the Mother of the Gods. If he killed her, what would happen to this world?

At the same time, the high-level officials of the entire world were experiencing earthquakes.

They all felt like the apocalypse had arrived.

For no other reason than that there was a space battleship outside the planet, observed to be a full 200,000 meters long!!!

And this space battleship had already aimed its cannon at their planet, even entering the stage of being ready to fire its main cannon!?

This was damn terrifying, okay!

Our technology was still just a child!!!

You openly appear near the planet without hiding, and you even bring out your main cannon and are ready to shoot!?

It must be said, everyone was very scared.

It didn't matter who; some people had even secretly contacted the Devil Kings through magicians.

For example, Sasha Dejanstahl Voban, the oldest modern Devil King.

The result was he said even he couldn't run into space, let alone destroy that space battleship.

A 200,000-meter long space battleship? Are you sure that's not a carrier!?

For them, their common understanding was still a few hundred meters to a few thousand meters, at most tens of thousands of meters for carriers. Anything exceeding 100,000 meters was usually from movies, either carriers or floating cities!

But here was a single warship at 200,000 meters; what about carriers?

Truly, weak technology limited imagination, huh?

Sasha Dejanstahl Voban also issued a warning.

He himself didn't want to provoke it either. Don't bother him; you high-level officials need to find scientists and use technology to see if communication was possible.

And he repeatedly emphasized, don't provoke it!

He didn't want to die!

He didn't know what unknown means that warship had. Even if they attacked with their known strongest power, what if it put up a shield?

All useless!!

Useless was one thing, but provoking it, and it firing a shot, what then?

Now everyone shared this thought, trying various methods to contact the people on the space battleship, using different languages, even sending messages in various language formats.

They even used pictograms to communicate.

They're really afraid the 'aliens' couldn't read the text.

Unfortunately, this space battleship had no one on it; it was fully intelligent, and was now on combat alert. Why would it care about signals sent by this very weak technology?

And Sephie, focused solely on Kaito, completely ignored it.

Because she was afraid she'd soften, she had blocked them early on.

If Kaito was in danger, she would simply blow up this planet.

For Kaito's sake.

That's right, Sephie chose to do this.

"Alright, since you don't need it, Kaito, I'll temporarily keep it safe..."

"But... if you lose, Kaito, I will still be unable to resist killing them, even if this planet has countless innocent lives."

Sephie looked at Kaito for a long, long time, confirming he wasn't putting on a brave face, then withdrew the crystal ball.

Likewise, this ultimately wasn't her world. And she was the universe's overlord's consort; now, it wouldn't be wrong to call her Queen. To appease her own anger by destroying a planet wouldn't cause her too much guilt.

In her eyes, even destroying the planet wasn't enough to appease her anger if Kaito is dead.

Even if it wasn't true death, the result was the same.

Besides, the universe was so vast. How many galactic lives had been lost to war? It was just the life on one planet.

Yes, 'just'.

That was how cruel it was.

Sephie hoped for peace in the entire universe, but she wouldn't feel guilty about one planet.

Especially for Kaito's sake...

"Haha, just rest assured."

Kaito read some of her thoughts from Sephie's eyes. Unable to help himself, the corners of his mouth rose, and he laughed out loud before reaching out to pat her head.

Mm…

Patting the universe Queen's head, pretty cool, huh?

Being patted on the head like a pet, Sephie didn't get angry. Instead, her cheeks flushed slightly as she looked down silently.

"Hi, handsome! Hello there! Right now, are you holding a grimoire?"

"If so, could you please turn around and hand me that grimoire? I believe it's a very dangerous item, and also not something an ordinary person like you should possess."

Their thoughts were abruptly interrupted. A female voice with an Italian accent sounded behind him, accompanied by the clear ring of a small knife being drawn.

A threat, and a warning.

Kaito and Sephie paused for a moment, then turned around with interest to look.

Never mind Kaito; with his strength, this girl couldn't possibly sense him, so she naturally made such a declaration!

But Sephie should have been detectable, right?

No...

It should be that Sephie was using special magic and had been using it all along.

Unexpectedly, not only did ordinary people not notice her, but this talking woman also didn't notice her?

Including the fact that he was still almost stroking Sephie's hair?

"Are you talking to me?" (Chinese)

"...Huh? You don't understand Italian? Then I'll explain in Chinese. You..."

The girl was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered.

Chinese?

She knew that too!

The girl coughed lightly twice, then repeated her previous words with her level 10 Chinese proficiency.

In other words, the stone tablet [Prometheus' Grimoire] Kaito still held in his hand was dangerous. It would be better for him, an ordinary person, to hand it over to her, as she was from the magic society, capable of keeping and protecting it.

But because of her pride, while not directly stating she was from the magic society, there was also a hint of threat. This was quite interesting.

If Kaito didn't give it, would this girl resort to snatching it?

But...

Given her pride, perhaps she really would?

At worst, after it was over, she could use magic to make Kaito forget.

"I'm very sorry, but I don't understand what you mean. All I know is, if I don't agree, are you going to steal my things?"

Kaito smiled, deliberately testing her with a slightly sarcastic tone.

If she really did that, Kaito could easily bully her a bit, deflate her pride, and teach her what it meant to learn respect!
