Doomsday Chat Group: Conquering the Multiverse Heroines

"What's going on?" Yasuwaki Takuto wanted to turn his head and ask, but he found that his body couldn't move at all! And the words on the tip of his tongue couldn't be spoken!

"Ren-sama... what about them?" The guards blinked wildly, one by one. Their anxious expressions, yet completely unable to move, were taken in by his eyes.

Ren naturally sat down on the chair the Seitenshi had just occupied. With a wave of his hand, Senju Kayo flew over and landed on his lap. With his head resting on Kayo's shoulder, he said casually, "I've controlled their bodies, making them unable to move."

"Next, I'll show you their true colors."

Ren's starry eyes looked at the guards and said coldly, "Tell me your views on the Cursed Children."

"They are all monsters."

"They are not humans."

"They are damned monsters."

...One after another, they rushed to answer. This scene was so eerie.

"This..." The Seitenshi was instantly startled, not only by this strange phenomenon but also by their cold words. They all regarded the Cursed Children as monsters, and damned monsters at that.

Being called damned monsters directly, Senju Kayo's eyes showed sadness. Ren stroked her head to comfort her. "Don't worry, Kayo isn't a monster in my eyes; she's a beautiful girl, you know."

...Thank you, Brother Ren. Kayo's heart warmed, and her little face even rubbed against Ren's cheek. Ren felt Kayo seemed closer to him and showed a relieved smile.

He then casually looked at the guards and asked, "How many Cursed Children have you intentionally killed or tortured to death?"

"One," "three," "seven," "five"... They each gave different numbers.

The Seitenshi's expression could no longer be maintained. Shock gradually turned into anger and bewilderment. Every single one of her guards had the blood and lives of Cursed Children on their hands! They did it on purpose. They even deliberately tortured them to death!

Finally, when it came to Yasuwaki Takuto, the captain of the guard, the words he spoke made her heart tremble with fear.

"I don't even know how many Cursed Children I've killed; perhaps hundreds."

Ren raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Elaborate."

Yasuwaki Takuto pushed up the glasses on his nose. A grotesque and terrifying smile appeared on his gloomy face. "I love torturing those monsters, listening to their agonizing screams as bullets pierce their bodies—it just makes me feel utterly delighted!" At first, he was just a bit neurotic. "Ah! That feeling is like embracing the Seitenshi's body and ravaging, ravaging, ravaging it! It's so exhilarating!" Later, he gradually became deranged and perverted.

"..." The Seitenshi's fury was already evident on her face; her complexion was even ashen. Senju Kayo, listening to his description, also clenched her fists, her gaze almost capable of killing.

Ren tapped his finger lightly on the table. They all regained consciousness. Each of them looked extremely terrified. They quickly knelt on the ground, begging for mercy repeatedly.

"Seitenshi! Please forgive us!"

Only Yasuwaki Takuto's expression was twisted. He trembled as he pointed at Ren, shouting madly, "He, it's him, he controlled me to say that, those are all lies! Seitenshi, you must believe me!"

"Enough, stop explaining!" The gentle Seitenshi finally couldn't bear his disgraceful behavior and erupted into the loudest roar she had ever uttered in her life.

Yasuwaki Takuto was still unwilling and tried to run to the Seitenshi to explain.

"Heh, how disgusting." Ren sneered and tapped the table again.

Bang! Bang bang bang!

A series of explosions. The bodies of the guards and their captain, Yasuwaki Takuto, all exploded into fragments of flesh and blood. The splattering blood and flesh flew towards them, solidified in mid-air about a meter away, and then dropped to the ground. It didn't splash onto them.

Ren watched her changing expression with interest, teasing. "How about it? Do you know now how twisted and dark the people of this world are?"

After a long while, the Seitenshi, who had recovered, wore a bitter smile on her beautiful face. "Lord Ren, perhaps... I was too naive..." She could never have imagined that her own guards were such... murderers.

But Ren's blow was not yet over; he curled his lips. When Senju Kayo saw this smile, she knew Brother Ren was about to cause trouble again.

"Your naiveté goes far beyond that."

"Ah?" The Seitenshi's sad eyes became puzzled.

"Do you remember Tendo Kikunojo?"

"He is my aide." The Seitenshi nodded.

"I was listening in when you held your meeting. Tendo Kikunojo seemed very supportive of your new law," Ren said with a smile.

"Yes, he is my most trusted aide." This was the only thing that brought the Seitenshi comfort. During the meeting, all the other officials opposed her. Only Tendo Kikunojo alone supported her.

This expression in Ren's eyes, how incredibly innocent it was. So innocent that Ren wanted to defile her entirely. There was a sense of excitement, like making a pure princess fall into depravity.

"Heh." Ren scoffed, then spoke. "But after I controlled his thoughts and memories, I found that he is actually the person who opposes you the most."

"What? That's impossible?" The Seitenshi immediately refuted; she didn't believe such an absurd thing.

"Don't believe it? Shall I call him here for a confrontation?" Ren raised his eyebrows and suggested.

The Seitenshi bit her silver teeth, pursed her lips, and nodded: "Good."

*****

"Knock knock."

Seitenshi: "Come in."

Tendo Kikunojo pushed open the door. What met his eyes was a scene of blood and scattered flesh, and the man sitting in the Seitenshi's seat, with the young girl he held in his arms. The Seitenshi stood obediently to one side. His pupils constricted sharply. He wanted to ask what had happened, but he found his body uncontrollably closing the door with his hand. Then he took steps, stepping through the blood-soaked floor, and walked to a spot not far from the executive desk. Meeting those golden, star-like eyes, Tendo Kikunojo seemed to be looking up at a god in the heavens. Unable to muster any thought of resistance.

Ren spoke to the Seitenshi: "Ask the questions you want to ask, and he will answer you honestly."

"..." She pursed her lips. The Seitenshi asked the question she most wanted to know at that moment. "Do you... support my Gastrea New Law?"

"I wholeheartedly oppose it." Tendo Kikunojo answered cleanly and decisively, completely shattering the hope in the Seitenshi's heart. Her body instantly went limp, and she was about to fall.

Ren, with quick eyes and hands, used his right hand to support her... soft flesh, preventing her from falling. He could have used his ability, but he enjoyed helping others. At this moment, the Seitenshi also didn't care about the contact with her sensitive parts; she was deeply pained, sorrowful, and despairing. Even her most trusted aide had betrayed her. She began to believe what Ren said. This world... is beyond saving. Everywhere was twisted darkness.

"Your question wasn't to the point; let me ask instead." The Seitenshi's sudden fragility, though it made his hand very comfortable, he still shook his head and asked himself: "Do you want to kill all Cursed Children?"

"Yes." Ren didn't stop, continuing with quick questions, and Tendo Kikunojo also gave quick answers.

"How much do you want to?"

"I wish all Cursed Children would die along with the Gastrea."

"You instructed Hiruko Kagetane to steal the Shichisei's Legacy, didn't you?"

"I instructed him."

"What was the purpose?"

"To summon the Gastrea of Zodiac Stage V, Scorpio, to destroy the Tokyo Area, and kill all Cursed Children in the Tokyo Area."

"OK, I'm done asking; you can wake up now." Ren symbolically clapped his hands.

"..." Tendo Kikunojo's eyes flickered, and he quietly stared at Ren. He had woken up and clearly understood what had happened, but he was now exceptionally calm.

"Tendo Kikunojo... everything you said... is it true?"

"It is true." Things had come to this. Tendo Kikunojo admitted it frankly. Facing someone who could freely control him, there was no point in arguing or trying to escape anymore.

The Seitenshi was completely stunned. Steal Shichisei's Legacy, summon Scorpio, destroy Tokyo Area, all just to kill all Cursed Children? The Seitenshi felt a bone-chilling cold shoot from her feet to the top of her head. Only her buttocks retained a trace of warmth.

"This person... is terrifying..." Senju Kayo's body trembled. How much hatred for Cursed Children does it take to do something like this?

Ren felt that the Seitenshi's body had completely stiffened. Holding her was quite cumbersome, so he simply pulled her onto his lap and hugged her waist. The Seitenshi showed no reaction at all. Tendo Kikunojo merely looked up once, remaining silent.

"Old man, I'm telling you, I really like these Cursed Children. It's fine even if I become the older brother of all Cursed Children."

"I believe most of the Cursed Children in this world are purer than over ninety percent of humans."

"So, you understand what I mean, right?"

"Are you trying to kill me?" Tendo Kikunojo looked directly at Ren calmly. "Unfortunately, it's too late. The plan has already begun. Scorpio is about to descend, and the Tokyo Area will surely be destroyed."

"Haha, with me here, Scorpio is just a small piece of trash." Ren chuckled, saying playfully, "It's mainly about you. Do you think I'll kill you? You're wrong. I won't kill you for now. The one who kills you will be Tendou Kisara."

"Tendou Kisara..." Tendo Kikunojo's gaze wavered for a moment. Tendou Kisara's parents were killed by his machinations, all for his own power and status. He smiled slightly: "Very well, it can also serve as her revenge before her death."

He never believed that Ren had the ability to deal with Scorpio from beginning to end. That was an existence that almost pushed the world to extinction. In his eyes, Ren was likely a modified human developed by someone he didn't know, just with more terrifying abilities. But even a modified human couldn't defeat the Zodiac, a Stage V Scorpio, which was a Regeneration Level Five monster at the apex of the world.

Gastrea Classification

The grading of Gastrea's regenerative abilities:

Regeneration Level One: Individuals that can be killed by ordinary Varanium weapons. Most Gastrea and Initiators belong to this level.

Regeneration Level Two: Capable of resisting ordinary Varanium weapons, requiring decapitation or dousing with fuel and burning to be defeated.

Regeneration Level Three: Even if an arm is cut off, it can regenerate or return to its original body; cells seem to respond to each other.

Regeneration Level Four: Even if most of its internal organs are lost, it can regenerate. To kill it, it needs to be completely annihilated without a trace.

Regeneration Level Five: Even if it's thrown into extremely low temperatures, vacuum, or thousands of degrees of magma, it can regenerate once it adapts to the environment, and it's molecular-level regeneration. At the current scientific level, there are no physical means to kill it. It seems that apart from hyper-Varanium items, nothing can kill it.

Gastrea are also classified into Stages:

Stage One Gastrea possess the genetic factor of one type of organism, while Stage Two has two. The higher the stage, the stronger the Gastrea's combat power. Stage Five is the strongest Gastrea. Zodiac is the general term for Stage V Gastrea. Currently, only eleven Stage V Gastrea have been discovered globally, all named after the twelve zodiac signs, with only Cancer missing. They are existences that once brought the human world to the brink of extinction. They possess enormous bodies, hard outer skin completely immune to ordinary weapons, molecular-level regenerative abilities, and the ability to be unaffected by the Monolith's magnetic field. Missiles and torpedoes can only cause minor damage, and wounds heal instantly. This kind of monster cannot be killed by a modified human. Only by using the Stairway can it be achieved.
