Chapter 834 Battle Of Rebellion [VII]



I am almost done eating the food I was eating when both Queen Tanya and Queen Tori climb the stairs. They both look fine and they didn't look like they came from fighting their respective enemies.

"Oh? You are done already Bladeheart? That's good. We can head up now."

"Looks like you guys are done as well. Are they dead?" I asked.

"Yep. Mine died because all the curses she used backfired on her and she suffered her own curses in the end, which soon made her succumb and died. She didn't do too hard enough that it's bad for her who specializes in using curses to fight against an onmyoji like me."

Oh yeah, no wonder Queen Tori decided to step up on that battle. Since she is an Onmyoji, she is capable of nullifying or rebounding the curses used on her. A hexer would be in so much trouble against an Onmyoji if they don't know who their enemy is. Sure, the Onmyoji can still have trouble for them especially if a very capable Hexer decided to fight back, but since the enemy was immediately defeated, perhaps she was a subpar Hexer and didn't have much of a power that was capable of harming her.

"Well, for me, the final fight was a bit subpar. I thought he would have managed to give me some challenging fight but he ended up dying shortly after, it's pretty useless, to be honest, and I am still not satisfied. I needed to fight a stronger enemy."

"I think we can find out more once we climb up, yeah?" I looked at them with a nod and they responded with a nod as well in agreement.

And so we climb up to the next floor, expecting the same floors as below, but our expectation was betrayed when we saw an elevator that leads to the top floor. There was no other way up except for it as we explored this floor and all this floor had was this elevator.

"I refuse to believe they only have three high-ranking officers and all of them died so fast. Are we expecting too much for this? Or we are just being lied upon thinking this is just easy?" Queen Tori frowned.

"Yeah, I do agree. It's a bit disappointing that we will be facing the main boss this time."

"Are we even gonna face the main boss now?" Queen Tori looked at me with surprise.

"Well, judging from the layout of this elevator and how we don't have any other floors besides the very top which I also assume is the final floor of this building, then that was the only thing that I could think of," I explained.

Although this was true, I didn't tell that the reason why there were so few floors here on this tower is due to the fact that this tower only gets new floors every time a new shogun is appointed. Once the last shogun gives his title to the new shogun, a new floor is added to keep the count coming. There were only 6 floors, 3 were occupied by the enemies that we defeated, one was empty, this floor we are in is the fifth, and the final floor is the top floor which means the current shogun is the sixth in-line shogun.

No one knows why this was a thing but it was the tradition and according to the tradition, once the tower is filled with floors, the tower will be extended. Eventually, they plan to keep on expanding the tower until it reaches the skies. However, I think that will be a bad idea. If only they heard about the tower of Babel and what happened to it, then perhaps they might have decided to stop this custom.

"Who cares about that, we shall see and find out then. Let's ride this elevator and see who is waiting for us at the top."

We entered the elevator and it automatically carried us to the top slowly. We can see the surroundings and see how high we are already. It didn't take us that long to reach the very top though as the elevator stops as we arrived at the location.I think you should take a look at

Entering the new floor, we are welcomed by a view of five people currently meditating in front of a golden throne where the shogun sits, and beside him is the hooded bard who is still blowing the flute. We still can't hear the music so we are still not affected at all.

"I underestimated you all. To think the three of my incredible soldiers are gone in a flash. Looks like you all are not just some minor nobodies who are not really a concern. Seeing that they have lost all their lives, then perhaps it is time to take you three seriously."

"Incredible soldiers? Are you serious? I don't even feel they are incredible. They are even subpar in comparison to what I faced before," Queen Tanya shrugged.

"How dare you talk like that to the shogun!" one of the meditating soldiers opened his eyes and pulled out his sword ready to attack Queen Tanya but the shogun stopped him.

"There's no need to attack her just yet. We are speaking."

"I-I apologize, dear Shogun," he lowered his head and returned to his meditation form.

"Why are you all angry? I am just stating the truth, you guys should just accept the bitter truth," Queen Tori frowned.

"I agree that they are not that strong, but they are also not that weak either. They just ended up facing someone they shouldn't have faced yet. However, who cares about it? They are now dead and you all are here. If the situation is reversed, we would not be talking here like this, right?"

"So, you plan to use your subordinates to fight back again? We are all ready to go and fight," I immediately assumed a battle stance, and the other two also prepared as well.

"Indeed. Because they are my best of the best. They are the strongest soldiers that are here in this world and I will make sure they will prosper in the fight. We will conquer this world and using their power, we will be ruling this world with my power."

"Strongest huh? Guess we are in for a treat," Queen Tanya grinned as she punches her palm.

"Make sure this won't be a disappointing mess. Even for someone like me who doesn't like to fight, your soldiers are weak," Queen Tori sighed.

"We will see then."

And as the shogun smiled, the five stood up and revealed their abilities one by one, showing off their true power that has been hidden.

However, I can only frown on them. For some unknown reason, they all look pathetic right now and I don't know why.
