Is It Wrong to Abusing Cartoon Tropes in Dungeon?

The main high-ranking members of the Committee are almost all from the Four Great Families. Each of these families controls different aspects of power, and the one responsible for overseeing the palace where Sun Wukong is sealed is the Mifutsuguji Family, which has always held the power of the Palace.

In particular, the leader of the Palace is the young master of the Mifutsuguji Family, Mifutsuguji Mikihiko.

The Mifutsuguji Family was the most anxious about the sudden orders issued by Altair, as they were completely unable to break the binding ritual that restrained Sun Wukong in a short amount of time.

They knew how to break the ritual, but it required fulfilling three major conditions: first, the manifestation of the divine spirit of the Dragon-Snake; second, a treasured sword capable of weakening the "ritual"; and third, a shrine maiden with the ability to purify calamities, wielding the sword and using spiritual power.

Luo Hao spent many years gathering these three conditions, especially the first one—the manifestation of the Dragon-Snake's divine spirit—which required a heretic god with the attributes of a Dragon-Snake.

This condition was fulfilled when the American Campione, John Smith, captured Ansela, who had been wreaking havoc in the United States. Ansela could transform herself into the serpentine Leviathan, possessing the divine spirit of the Dragon-Snake.

However, at this time, John Smith had not yet captured her, and Japan had no heretic gods with Dragon-Snake attributes. Even if such a heretic god appeared, the current strength of the Committee would not allow them to capture it in a short time.

Thus, the Mifutsuguji Family was in a state of extreme distress.

"The other three families must assist us. This matter cannot be handled by the Mifutsuguji Family alone. That is a Demon King, and we cannot face it alone!"

"Exactly. If the other families refuse to help, we should drag them all down with us. No one will get out of this unscathed!"

The Mifutsuguji Family was holding an internal meeting, but the Four Great Families had not come up with any concrete plans.

"Does anyone have information about the new king? Has the Committee found any records about the new king?"

"No, there is very little information about the new king. We only know his name and nothing else. The only records about the new king indicate that he first appeared in Norway, where he killed Nidhogg and became a Campione. Then, a week later, he appeared on the outskirts of Luo Hao's territory. We speculate that he traveled from Northern Europe to there by flight, but there was no one named Altair on the flight manifest. After that, the new king swiftly defeated Luo Hao and became the new king. Luo Hao stepped down, and within a week of taking power, the new king issued orders to us."

This information was basically in the hands of every magical organization that was paying attention to the new king. It was all useless information, except for the fact that the new king first appeared in Norway. Oh, and one more thing—this new king was quite experienced in brutality. After defeating Luo Hao, he immediately issued orders to Japan.

The Committee had no idea how this new king would act. They dared not test him, because this new king would really take action. According to reliable intelligence, Luo Hao had been beaten by this new king twice!

Campiones can withstand the blows of other Campiones, but small-time magicians and curse-users like them couldn't handle it!

"Does he have any preferences? What about women?"

"Unclear. From what we can see, he has no interest in Luo Hao."

"Maybe Luo Hao isn't his type?"

"Are you only thinking about beautiful women?"

"Well, what do you suggest? Go ahead and say it."

"I... damn it, won't the Lord help us at all?"

The Lord is Susanoo. This heretic god descended from mythology long ago, but unlike other heretic gods, he did not roam the earth. Instead, he secretly supported the Committee from behind the scenes, rarely showing himself. He couldn't appear openly, because once the news spread that there was a heretic god in Japan, the Campiones would swarm like sharks smelling blood. If that happened, the reshaping of Japan's surface would be the least of their worries.

"Let's lay our cards on the table with the other three families. Tell them they must help us with all their strength. This time, we're dealing with two kings. If they don't help us, we'll all be doomed together."

The Mifutsuguji Family couldn't come up with a solution. Even if they wanted to find a Dragon-Snake divine spirit, they didn't have the capability, as those resources were beyond their reach. So, they decided to ask the other three families for help.

"In any case, gather all the strength we can muster. We must survive this crisis!"

"Call Amatsu Tomo over. As the external representative, let him find someone to handle this."

"Right, let those guys come up with something too."

Aside from the Four Great Families, the Committee naturally had many members who were not from the Four Great Families. The Four Great Families didn't need to control every position. They held the high-ranking positions themselves, while the lower positions were given to those they had recruited or who had voluntarily joined them, letting them handle the work.

Amatsu Tomo was one of those non-Four Great Family members, and he was also the external representative of the Committee, responsible for external affairs. In matters like this, someone like him naturally had to step up.

"Right, let them handle it first."

The Mifutsuguji Family, unable to come up with a solution and unwilling to deal with the problem themselves, chose to pass the buck to the external representatives of the Committee.

The Four Great Families, holding high positions, could shift responsibility among themselves, but those in lower positions couldn't escape their duties.

Thus, the lower-ranking members were in trouble. At least in the first wave of receiving Altair, it wouldn't be the Four Great Families who had to face him.

The order was quickly issued, and when Amatsu Tomo received it, he was completely stunned. Why was he so unlucky?

But helpless as he was, he had no choice but to brace himself and accept the task, then look for people who could help him receive the two kings.

During the three days of preparation, the Four Great Families of the Committee continued to bicker among themselves, showing no signs of being ready. Finally, three days later, the Great Dragon King and Luo Hao, along with Lu Yinghua and their cult, arrived at Narita Airport.

In the special passage of the airport, to prevent anyone from offending Altair and Luo Hao, the Committee cleared the entire area, leaving no outsiders. Amatsu Tomo and the people he had gathered personally received them!
