The Journey of the Overlord

The Overlord's Journey Chapter 237.

"Is that it, is that your determination?"

Az-Dakha still did not look back, but replied calmly.

"Then I receive, but I will not help you, as I have just said, this is a trial for your humans, a trial given to itself by human malice, a trial that has nothing to do with me, so I will not be a part of it. That is all."

After saying that, Az-Dakha moved his feet and began to move towards the rendezvous point of the cursed children.

Leaving Liantaro on his knees looking blankly at Az-Dakha's back.

"Why... Why? ....."

Rintaro didn't understand, didn't understand why Az Dakaha wouldn't help himself to protect Tokyo, you know, Tokyo was destroyed, he had no place to survive right, everyone else was dead, even if he could have taken care of all the proto-intestines by himself, but that was no way to do it, what was the point of leaving only the last one behind, why exactly, why did he refuse, why did he save Tokyo last time if he felt that it was none of his business to destroy it, why did he break the cannonball he had so easily thrown out last time and then finish off Scorpio himself, why exactly?

Liantaro had been dazed.

"Exactly... Why..."

Because of this futile plea from Rentachi, Chancellor Tenko Kikunosuke had learned that Az-Dakha had no intention of protecting Tokyo, but he had come up with another idea, which was to force Az-Dakha and Orpheus to protect Tokyo, not in the sense of forcing Az-Dakha and Orpheus to exhibit, of course; he wasn't that sure that if he did, Tokyo would be destroyed by Az-Dakha's predecessor before Bijou-5 broke through the monolith.

What Chancellor Tenko Kikunosuke was exploiting was a different story.

The reason Az-Dakaha and Orpheus protected Tokyo last time was because of the existence of the Cursed Son of District 39, so if you want Az-Dakaha to protect Tokyo again, you need District 39 to be just as threatened as last time, so the best way to do that is to have Bijou-Gu take his army of proto-intestinal animals and head to District 39, so that, naturally, Az-Dakaha and Orpheus will participate in the war, as long as Bijou Goh was ~killed~, the rest were all highest stage III's, completely out of the way, the army and civilian police would be able to finish them off, and while it might cause a lot of casualties, sometimes those casualties were necessary for the Tokyo district to exist!

At this point, the Third Battle of Kanto is about to begin, and Az-Dakha and Orpheus are headed to the front!

It's almost over! Everyone! I will write a touching ending oh!!!!

Chapter Fifteen, There's Still Time Before the End ......

The First Battle of the Kanto

In 2021, the appearance of protozoa divided the Japanese islands into five regions, and the Self-Defense Forces (SDF) battled protozoa in the Kanto region in order to expand their defensive lines, barely holding off the protozoa attack after many lives were lost, and successfully evacuating the remnants to the present-day Tokyo area.

The Second Battle of the Kanto

Several years after the war, the protozoa gathered again and attacked the Tokyo area, but research showed that the magnetic field emitted by holmium was capable of weakening the protozoa, so the Self-Defense Forces successfully defeated the protozoa using holmium warheads, using the Monolithic Monolith as a boundary. To commemorate this event, 2,000 rifles used in the war were melted down and made into a monument, which was erected in the outer 40th district.

The Third Battle of Kanto is now about to begin.

The monolith that went wrong was Monolith 32, outside of Area 40 at the site of the Second Battle of Kanto, which is a short turn away from Area 39.

A large number of troops were assembled here and were on standby behind monolith #32.

By the side of the monument built at the time of the Second Battle of Kanto was a large gathering of civilian police.

They were the second line of defense, because the army didn't trust the civilian police, that's why the civilian police were placed here, the army feared that they would take the credit that belonged to them, that's why they wouldn't let the civilian police fall back as the second line of defense.

However, the army has its own resources, and in order to deal with this Bijou 5 attack, the Tokyo district has assembled a full 7,000 men, a large number of tank units, and air fighter units, all equipped with warheads made of Holmium metal in order to deal with the battle.

Among the civilian police, Satomi Rintaro, as the leader of a squad, was having a conversation with I-dono, who was in charge of the overall command.

"Is that right, won't that hero come?"

"Yes, I'm very sorry that I wasn't able to invite the other party, but the other party doesn't seem to have any affection for humans."

Liantaro felt self-conscious about the fact that he hadn't been able to invite Az-Dakha to come.

"It's nothing, it's not your fault, it's not so much your fault as it is the fault of that little bit irresponsible fellow who received the appropriate treatment from the government but didn't make the corresponding obligations, he doesn't deserve to be called a hero!"

I, Don Chang, was disdainful of Az Dakaha's actions in not participating in the war.

"Although it is true that being able to finish off Scorpio is particularly powerful, but disregarding the lives of his people, then there is no need for him to exist, we can hold this third Kanto war without him, and after we do, we will crusade against him! Like I just said! He doesn't deserve to be a hero, then there's no need for him to exist in the Tokyo district!"

"Wait! Are you serious, my Hall Captain?"

Liantaro's mouth opened in surprise.

"Why are you crusading against each other?"

"Huh? Because people like him don't need to exist, especially not in Tokyo! And he's not even a police officer! Isn't it?"

"But have you considered the strength of the other side? That's not an existence we can antagonize!"

Rintaro witnessed Aziz Dakaha blocking tank shells with his palm, even shattering his own shot with his fist, and the shadow that sliced the tank in half, a power that was definitely not hostile to the Minutemen.

"Hmph, Satomi Rintaro, you think too highly of that guy, he clearly has the strength to defeat Scorpio but doesn't dare to fight Bijou Goh, he definitely doesn't have the corresponding strength, he's just a cursed son after all!"

My Hall Captain spoke without a care for the cursed child beside him, and the other party didn't mind in the slightest.

"No, that's because you don't know the power of the other side, my hall captain, you mustn't do that."

"That's for later, not now!"

My hall leader is slapping the table.

"What we need to do now is to discuss how to solve the problem of Bijou V. Our supplies were withheld because of the army, but that won't stop the fight between us and the proto-intestines, we can still finish them off, of course it's better if the army can finish off the proto-intestines, that saves us a lot of trouble and a lot less lives sacrificed. "

For the greater good, I, Todo Nagamasa, still have a clear distinction, and being able to hold Tokyo is the most important thing. As long as we hold Tokyo and we don't do anything, it's the best that we can sacrifice less.

"Report my hall captain, the 32nd stone tablet has all been corroded!"

A policeman who came in at the door reported the situation outside.

"I got it, I'm going out now!"

After responding, I, Todo Masamasa, took his samurai sword in his hands and turned to look at Rentachi.

"Satomi Rintaro, now is not the time for us to argue with each other, the most important thing now is to protect Tokyo, the war is about to begin!"

Lian Taro didn't say anything more, just nodded faintly and walked out.

The only thing that Liantaro, who followed me out of the hall, saw was that the huge monolith towering in the distance had now turned from deep black to pale white, and the huge monolith started shedding white matter as if it was decaying.

"Is the 32nd stone monument, is it going to collapse just like that."

"Liantaro!"

Bluebara Yanju came running over from the side, followed by several policemen and loli, members of the squad that belonged to him that Liantaro had managed to assemble.

"The crumbling of monolith 32 has begun, and the army will have to meet the first wave of attacks in a moment."

Rintaro clenched his fists as he looked at the monoliths that were beginning to tilt in the distance.

"This way, the war will begin."

This monument was built high up in Sector 40, so Lientaro, the police, would have a particularly good view, and as everyone watched, the tall monolith in the distance crumbled down.

The gigantic Stage IV monster Bijou-Gu appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and then a large amount of artillery fire began to pour down, warheads made of holmium metal hitting Bijou-Gu's body in large numbers, as well as various missiles as well, blowing open wounds on Bijou-Gu's body, but it had little effect, as the wounds quickly healed due to the terrifying recovery ability, appearing to be useless at all.
