NOVEL NEXT Chapter 15
[“Misaka Mikoto” requests to enter member “Adolf K. Wiesmann’s” world]
[“Tanjiro” requests to enter member “Adolf K. Wiesmann’s” world]
[Would you like to approve?]
“Approve!”
As Wiesmann finished speaking, two figures appeared on the airship.
“Wah wah wah~~”
Upon landing, Tanjiro was about to greet Bai Luo and others.
But upon looking down, he nearly got a fright that would scare any charcoal seller.
“This this! What is this thing!!”
Even the incredibly brave Tanjiro couldn’t help but cling tightly to Wiesmann, trembling with fear.
There’s no way someone who doesn’t even know what an airplane is could not be scared at a kilometer above ground.
“Don’t be afraid, Tanjiro.”
Bai Luo raised his hand and gave the young boy a gravity field, allowing him to float.
And as for Misaka Mikoto, Bai Luo naturally wouldn’t leave her out.
“Is it going to be this exciting from the start?”
The wind blew strongly, causing Misaka Mikoto’s skirt to flutter dramatically. Coincidentally, from Bai Luo’s angle, he could just see the legendary underwear of the young girl.
“Hmm…”
Bai Luo felt somewhat awkward, while Ace belatedly noticed her impropriety and quickly pressed her hands against her skirt.
“Mm~”
Misaka Mikoto’s face turned slightly red. She looked around and sighed in relief when she realized no one had seen.
‘It’s just a pair of underwear, not panties.’
Bai Luo found this somewhat amusing and was also glad that he had managed to shift his gaze in time.
“Are the enemies inside this airship?”
Ace asked, “How do we get in?”
“Follow me.”
Soon, everyone followed Wiesmann into the interior of the airship.
No one knew this airship better than Wiesmann, who had lived there for seventy years.
At the same time, in the airship’s cockpit, a tall silver-haired youth had already noticed Bai Luo’s arrival.
“Has that guy returned?”
The Colorless King frowned slightly. In his current state, having taken over Wiesmann’s original body, he was well aware of his own condition.
“The first Authority Holder is nothing but a waste, not worth mentioning.”
He had thought by taking over Wiesmann’s body, he would gain control over the first Authority Holder’s abilities as well.
However, something went wrong, and he only obtained the other person’s memories and physical form.
Originally, the Colorless King had already prepared to blow up the airship.
He had a plan: to incite conflict between the different Authority Clans, using the chaos to steal all the bodies and powers of the Authority Holders.
Once the plan succeeded, he would become the strongest king in this world!
As for the method…
Not long ago, the Colorless King, using Wiesmann’s current youthful form, shot and killed a member of the Red Clan.
His name was Jushiro Taromaru, one of the initial members of the Bark Dance Group of the Red Clan.
Members of the Bark Dance Group possessed the superpower to manipulate fire.
However, despite being an officer in the group, Taromaru wasn’t particularly skilled in combat, and his flames were quite weak.
In contrast, Taromaru had a gentle personality akin to an older brother within the clan.
Perhaps because of this, his flames had the ability to calm the Red King’s restless heart, bringing peace.
This made Taromaru a mediator among the group of delinquents in the Bark Dance Group.
He was loved and respected by everyone, a crucial family member.
Yet, such a person was gunned down by the Colorless King while he was out photographing the cityscape at night.
To avenge Taromaru, the superpower users of the Red King’s lineage began an investigation.
Eventually, the Bark Dance Group discovered the last image Taromaru captured before his death: the Colorless King shooting him.
This footage enraged the Bark Dance Group, prompting them to search the entire city for Wiesmann to avenge Taromaru.
Yes, they were searching for Wiesmann, not the Colorless King.
Because the white-haired youth in the footage was now Wiesmann’s body.
Thus, innocently, the Silver King ended up taking the blame for the Colorless King.
“Next, with the Bark Dance Group’s fiery temper, they will eventually clash with the Fourth Division responsible for maintaining order.”
If the Red Clan and the Blue Clan go to war, the entire city will descend into chaos, giving him the opportunity to become the sole king in the world.
“But who are these few people who came with him?”
“Blue Clan? Or Golden Clan?”
The Colorless King looked at Bai Luo and the others who had appeared before him: “Could they be new recruits hastily converted by that guy?”
“Haha ha~~”
“The possibility of that is too funny!”
Thinking about this possibility almost made the Colorless King laugh himself to death.
A mere newly recruited clan member, how could they possibly defeat him?
Remember, only an Authority Holder can defeat another Authority Holder; other clan members cannot harm a king.
Even though the Colorless King was the weakest king, he was still a king.
As for whether Bai Luo and the others were related to the Black King…
Such thoughts never crossed the mind of the Colorless King.
After all, that terrifying individual was someone even the Colorless King knew better than to provoke.
If he must deal with them, it would have to be last.
As for now…
He decided to take over Wiesmann’s body again.
Although he didn’t know what happened that prevented him from obtaining the power of the Silver King,
that kind of good luck wouldn’t happen twice!
‘My power is perfect.’
The Colorless King was extremely confident: ‘That small trick can’t stop me!’
Regardless of the Colorless King’s mysterious confidence,
on Bai Luo’s side,
everyone easily reached the main control room under Wiesmann’s guidance.
No traps or defenses, no firepower protection—Wiesmann’s airship was never designed with those things in mind from the beginning.
“You don’t worry about someone sneaking up on you.”
Bai Luo said, then suddenly realized he had spoken incorrectly: “Oh, I almost forgot about the Colorless King.”
It seems someone had already tried a backstab, so there was nothing to worry about.
“Uh…”
Wiesmann looked embarrassed and wanted to explain.
But considering his previous character, he simply couldn’t bring himself to say anything.
Just as the Colorless King believed, Wiesmann, due to his sister’s death, had lost hope in life.
Before this, he had been living day by day without much care.
Life and death meant nothing to Wiesmann.
Even if he were truly killed by the Colorless King, it might be a kind of liberation for Wiesmann.
“So this was your past, Wiesmann.”
Kurumi Tokisaki could understand Wiesmann, but she didn’t agree with his actions.
No matter how desperate, Kurumi had never considered giving up.
Wiesmann’s strength was not weak. If he hadn’t wasted seventy years, he might have found a way to resurrect his sister.
Even if he failed, he would have tried for seventy years, right?
At least, Wiesmann hadn’t wasted his life.
“Sorry.”
Wiesmann said, “I’ve realized now that my past self was completely wrong.”
“To recognize one’s mistakes shows growth.”
Clearly, Bai Luo was the younger one, yet now he had to guide Wiesmann, who was nearly a hundred years old.
“And the chat group offers countless possibilities. There are many methods to resurrection that I know of.”
“Ah.”
Wiesmann nodded and smiled, “I’ll bring my sister back!”
