Chapter 427
Although Leon didn't want to let the power got over his head, he slowly understood that might makes right. Despite having kicked her ass, Yuki didn't want to follow Leon's advice of capturing the terrorists alive in order to interrogate them. She became a muscle-head to the point where she said that just killing would solve all their problems.
"... If you kill them, you will never discover if they have more allies hiding somewhere," Leon said after a long sigh. "You will only delay the inevitable trying to satisfy your own thirst for blood. If you want to make them suffer, just leave the things here to me and tell the Australian leader just to capture anyone who may enter the continent over the course of next week. I assure you that killing them is being merciful."
"Your Majesty..." Ren hesitated.
"Shut up, Ren..." Yuki said, annoyed. "I won't let you do whatever you want in a situation that may endanger my people. We will keep an eye on them and on you while you prepare this ambush of yours. Unless you accept these terms, I won't follow your plan."
"So, you want to come with me?" Leon frowned. "How can you be so imprudent... whatever, do what you want."
Ren and Yuki would work with Leon, but he doubted that they could keep up with him. Besides, Leon would be the one to identify the troublesome individuals, so those two would always be one step behind them.
Regardless, Leon had to wait for half an hour while Yuki and Ren were talking with the Australian leader and readying themselves. They said to him that they shouldn't spread that information and just lure any new individual to a place where they couldn't escape using the excuse that visitors had to be questioned about certain things.
Eventually, Ren and Yuki appeared. Ren, aside from his red katana he was wearing a set of red Japanese armor... it looked like he decided to focus on increasing his Fire Resistance because he was waiting for the return of dragons. Leon couldn't understand following that logic, why the hell he became a specialist in fire magic as well... he probably just wanted to serve as a meat shield for Yuki.
Aside from her gloves, Yuki was wearing a set of light armor and boots. All of them had a light-green glow... Leon didn't know if she liked the color or if they were all enchanted with the thunder element, and she liked that. Most likely, she only used those because that increased her thunder attacks and, thus, her speed.
"Now that I think about it, I have to ask Ilyana about the guy who summoned dragons... she probably knows the bastard. I guess the number of assholes I have to kill increased..."
"What are you looking at?" Yuki furrowed her eyebrows.
"Nothing," Leon looked away. "This may take a while, are you guys ready for that?"
"Yes, we will wait for them at the East entrance of our country," Ren explained. "It is the only entrance of those who come from the continent to enter. I don't think the terrorists will enter our country like you, but I gave the order to our soldiers at the walls to keep their eyes wide open."
Leon didn't think of that, but since Ilyana didn't warn Leon about that possibility, the chances of them invading Japan using Transfer were low. If the terrorists wanted to cause a lot of ruckuses, their best option was to enter the country legally and be accepted as citizens in order to obtain many chances to create human-bombs.
Alongside with Ren and Yuki, Leon moved toward the East entrance of Japan. At first, Yuki said that they would go by using the choppers William received, but Leon refused that idea. Moving using Transfer would be much faster, even while transporting two more people. Leon became quite surprised when he heard that Japan produced those. It looked like Japan was mining mithril in several parts of the world, and now they had the knowledge of how to create those. Although Leon was, it wasn't that surprising since almost they had hundreds of years for them to explore and test that magic material.
They arrived on the East entrance around 03:30 AM. Unfortunately, the walls were very close to the ocean, so there wasn't any place where Leon, Ren, and Yuki could hide. Their only option was to wait above the walls. Fortunately, things were well illuminated all over the walls. The soldiers who were protecting the place were using floodlights... surprisingly, their battery was mithril. Leon's mouth was wide open after hearing that.
"You guys sure have a lot of mithril..." Leon frowned. "Do you guys know how to produce?"
"Produce?" Ren frowned too. "Don't you mean, mine mithril?"
"Mages can create mithril," Leon created a small sphere of mithril and then gave it to Ren. "Well, I guess you guys don't need it since you are using mithril like that."
"We have great reserves... and we findnew mines quite frequently since the planet itself is creating them," Yuki said while she was observing the small piece of mithril. "However, we are always looking for more since we invest a lot to keep our people safe."
Yuki became a hot-blooded woman, but at least she didn't lose her focus. Her goal was still to keep Japan safe, even though she didn't miss a single chance of kicking the ass of any bastard who wanted to target her country, Yuki knew the things she had to focus.
"Do you guys receive a lot of immigrants at night?" Leon asked.
"No, since they would have to cross the ocean at night," Yuki answered. "If they show themselves now, it will become clear that they are enemies, so I don't think they will arrive at night."
Leon nodded since it made sense. Regardless, he wouldn't drop his guard. If he makes any mistakes, the chances of him catching every single terrorist will decrease a lot.
