What made you have the illusion that I am the protagonist! ?

Follow the two "rabbits" to board the elevator to the upper floor. The elevator runs very fast. If ordinary people come to sit in it, they might get sick in the elevator, but the three here are not ordinary people.

Get out of the elevator and go straight to the end of the corridor, where there is only one door.

"Here, please go in."

This is the first sentence "Rabbit" said to Fuyumi today, after all, he is the elite of the Golden Clan, and he has completely calmed down by now.

"Thank you, Youyuan-chan~"

There is no exchange of names, so that is to say—this guy really heard it.

Right, he must be pretending to be asleep.

Guochang Lu Youyuan didn't get angry this time, instead he shivered slightly, and thought from the bottom of his heart that this person was not simple, yes, after all, he was the courtier of the Colorless King who deliberately stayed by his side.

Toya, who didn't even know that he had been marked in his heart, waved to him and walked to the end of the corridor.

The automatic door opened in front of him, Daikaku Kunizuki stopped chatting with Miwa Yiyan in the room, and looked at Fuyuya who stepped into the empty room.

--thump.

--thump.thump.

--thump.thump.thump.

Fuyuya only took a few steps, and the three people in the room felt a few pulse-like energy shocks, and at the same time, they all discovered the source of the energy shock.

"Huh... blue, stone?"

Ishitani Toya covered his chest, looked down, and through the transparent glass without a trace of stain, he could clearly see a strange blue stone under the room.

...No, blue is not the base color of the stone, to be precise, it is a stone that glows blue.There is a round object in the middle of the stone, like a beating heart beating up and down, and it is slowly accelerating.

The blue light is following the beating of the stone heart, spreading out from the stone plate little by little. Gradually, this empty room begins to be filled with blue free energy spots, and then Like a rotating nebula, it began to revolve around the core of the nebula - Toya Ishitani and the Dresden Stone Disk.

Fuyuya, who was in the energy vortex, didn't know what happened, and was a little surprised.

The only thing he could feel was that the beating spherical object in the middle of the rock at the bottom was getting closer to the beating frequency of his heart.

Getting closer, getting closer...

I always feel that when the beating rhythms of the two are fully integrated, something extraordinary will happen.

"Cough, cough, cough... ah, this is really...unexpected."

Shocked and coughing for three rounds, he watched the scene in front of him with complicated emotions.Obviously he has not seen this scene with his own eyes, but Miwa Yiyan clearly understands what such a scene means.

Although I once thought that if the next colorless king is Yuya, then there is no need to worry, but this is just his most wishful thinking. All kings are selected by the Dresden stone plate, even if He is the king of gold who has suppressed Stone Plate for decades and has the deepest relationship with it, and he can't designate someone to be the king.

Unexpectedly, before the possibility of Dongya becoming the colorless king was realized, Shipan had already chosen him——

However, thinking about it this way is not very surprising. If you have the aptitude to be a king, compared to becoming the new colorless king after your death, and ascending to the blue throne that is now vacant, it is not at all. It's worth being surprised.

……

A place in Tokyo called Tsubakimon.

This is the headquarters of the former Qing Wang Yu Zhang Xun's clan—Scepter4, commonly known as the Fourth Branch of the Household Registration Division of the Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau.

However, since Yu Zhangxun fell, this place has been silent for a long time.

Not unpopular.

The members of Scepter4 in blue uniforms still come and go here, under the command of acting commander Yan Jinyuan, continuing their actions in the era of Yu Zhangxun.

It just maintains its original state mechanically, like a beast that has lost its claws and fangs. It can only raise its mane, trying to intimidate others, and at the same time, it is very clear that in the eyes of those who know it, it is like a walking dead.

This is what a clan without a king looks like.

It's not just as simple as not having a leader.

The current acting commander, Yan Jinyuan, was staring out of the window. Rows of green uniforms were lined up for practice on the playground. It should have been a scene full of vigor and vitality, but now it seems that it is just a useless completion of tasks and routines.

Obviously he joined the organization because he admired King Qing's "righteousness", but now if you ask him where the "righteousness" in his heart has gone, I'm afraid he won't be able to answer.

In the final analysis, the reason for maintaining the minimum activities of Scepter4 is no longer a "righteousness", but to make himself look less miserable.

However, on this day, at this moment.

The air that had been silent for a long time suddenly changed.

--thump.

--thump.thump.

--thump.thump.thump.

Yan Jinyuan suddenly stood up from his position, covering his chest.

The heart beat violently, from the green power bestowed by the former Qing Wang Yu Zhang Xun, it suddenly rose uncontrollably, the air around his feet began to twist, and blue flames burned around him.

This feeling is——

It's not wrong, as a core member of the Blue Clan, he has felt this feeling many times.

Before the fall of the ancestors, every time the ancestors liberated their power, every member of the Blue Clan would have this feeling——

It's still a bit weaker than the previous generation, but it's very close...

His mind was suddenly immersed in joy and he couldn't extricate himself from it. When he came back to his senses with superhuman willpower and tried to pursue that feeling, it suddenly disappeared.

Nothing ignited in the cyan flame, like a TV show that was unplugged in the middle of it.Even faster than when it came, it disappeared.

Yan Jinyuan was stunned.

At that moment, he even wondered if he was an illusion caused by wanting a Qing King too much.

However, the sudden chaos and noise in the playground outside the window proved that he was not the only one who felt all that.

Scepter4, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly started to boil.

……

"--What happened? How could this happen! Your Majesty--"

Miwa Yiyan, the second high-level member of the Imperial Pillar Tower, had a shocked voice, which fully explained his mood.

The blue light spots that filled here before have disappeared, and the Dresden stone plate has regained its calm appearance.

Just ten seconds ago, those blue light spots were still revolving around Ishitani Toyomi and the Dresden Stone Plate, and the light spots became more and more dense and turned faster and faster, and finally formed a series of lights The belt keeps turning and turning.

Finally at a certain moment, the blue band of light reached a critical point, rushing towards Toya Ishitani together.

It is conceivable that the next step is for this person to absorb the energy and memory from the slate, and then finally ascend to the throne.

——However, at that moment, when the strips of blue were about to pour into Fuyuya's body, the band of light suddenly collapsed.

The band of light that lasted for a long time to condense suddenly collapsed into a spot of light within half a second, and then completely disintegrated and disappeared.

At the same time, the process of Ishitani Toya's transformation into a king was also interrupted.

"...No, this is the first time I have encountered such a situation." Guochang Lu Dajue replied in a deep voice.

The slate will choose the King.

The chosen one will be king.

This should have been the most natural thing.

——Then, what happens if the chosen one does not become king?

Of the three people standing here, only the one person involved was still out of the situation, scratching his cheek with an innocent look on his face.

"Eh? Mr. Yiyan, what happened to that just now?"
