Chapter 325 What is the price of opening a door?
Lieyan Jianni understood.
Elder Pikachu wants to completely destroy the Dark Emperor ↓
To completely destroy the Dark Emperor, the seal that holds the power of the Dark God must be broken, thus imprisoning the Dark Emperor once again.
The most important key is needed to unlock the seal ↓
The key is here, so we still need five spirit stones ↓
Not wanting to be discovered if he gave it directly to the Dark Emperor, he pretended to be careless.
Oh, he's right. The Dark Emperor's spirit stones had been lost in the universe for so long and hadn't been found, but he'd only been at Meng Academy for two years, and they all appeared at once.
"You mean to say that Ruibusi is the key?" Genny stood up again in his excitement. "Then does the fact that she didn't return to the Dark Emperor's side immediately after arriving at the Moe Academy mean that she was originally on our side?"
Now she's returned to the Dark Emperor's side to lull him into a false sense of security, so he'll die in his smugness!
He always said he wouldn't misjudge his friends!
Ou Pa felt something was off: "Why would Rui Bu Si need to hide something from us?"
She is not silent, nor does she silently dedicate herself and willingly allow herself to be misunderstood by everyone.
Even from the perspective of fearing that everyone would know and that the plan would be exposed to the Dark Emperor, given her familiarity with Miya Star, she wouldn't have overlooked the possibility that Miya Star could deduce.
"Then she might have her own ideas, like monitoring the Dark Emperor. Think about it, if she really is a very important 'key' to the Dark Emperor, how could the Dark Emperor, such a suspicious person, not take any measures against her?"
Genny gave himself full marks for his rigorous logical reasoning.
"Putting aside Little Carrot's thoughts, I have a question." Ulala shook her head at Ou Pa, who then swallowed the words that would have been a blow to Kenny.
"The seal containing the power of the Dark God is by no means simple. The Dark Emperor needed to plan for many years, and breaking it is not an easy task."
Let's set aside the less pressing questions of why Ripos is the "key" and how the "key" was formed.
What she most wanted to know was:
What price will be paid to unlock it?
The Dark Emperor is ruthless and merciless; there will be a price to pay, but he will not be the one to pay it.
Genny was a little confused: "Isn't it a 'key'?"
What are the consequences of using a key to open a door? A little wear and tear that's barely visible to the naked eye?
“Everything will become clear once Elder Kendrick deciphers Dark Files X. We don’t need to worry too much right now.” Eric didn’t let the topic continue.
He carefully placed the pen that Miya Xing had casually left on the table. The whiteboard was densely covered with information, with processes and results arranged haphazardly. Some of the certainties were circled, while some inferences were marked with question marks.
The inference about the "key" is based on a very important premise, which has a very high probability of error: Director Pa's spying was not wrong, and he also did not misremember it when relaying it to them.
Even if everything exists, the key to unlocking the seal on the power of the Dark God is Ruibusi, but what can they do if they cannot find the Dark Nest?
The road ahead is still unclear, and all we can do is trust and wait.
But there is one thing they are now certain of, able to do, and must do.
"We should start planning how to return Haiti to the Dark Emperor, and before that..."
"Restore Director Pa's magic!"
……
The Dark Emperor, disguised as a jazz musician, received some exciting news.
"I never expected that the Hades, which is extremely important to the Quark Clan and must never be obtained by the Dark Emperor, would be so risky for me to break the seal on it, with Principal Os, Princess Naya, and the Cute Knights."
Pa slipped and landed far away from Jazz, then pulled out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears: "It was all worth it for all my years of hard work and sweat at Meng Academy! Heavens, hard work really pays off!"
His exaggerated movements made the Dark Emperor think of the vampires, which displeased him greatly.
If he had ever thought about his former collaborator, Count Gulác, he would have noticed that Pa's landing motions were at least three-tenths similar to Gulác's.
"Sir," she said, suppressing her fear and controlling her weak legs, as she slipped to the ground and mustered all her strength to reach out and barely grasp the jazz's hand. "When shall we do it? Should we choose an auspicious time?"
“Of course not!” the jazz man replied, shaking his hand. “A little magic trick, we can start anytime!”
"However, there is a small problem that I hope you won't mind." He withdrew his hand, seemingly embarrassed but actually terrified. "It's not that I don't trust you, Sir, but this is the last spirit stone that Meng Academy has. If we lose it, we won't be able to explain it to Elder Kendrick."
"I understand, I understand." Damn Quark Clan, what do you mean the Quark Clan only has this one spirit stone? The Dark Spirit Stone was originally his!
"What kind of precautions could they take?" They're so wary of their own people!
"Haha, I was just asking casually, to make the process of restoring magic go smoothly. After all, the magical world is a big place where anything can happen..."
"I understand, of course I understand, but don't worry, it won't affect anything. Our plan is to..."
"Ah," the sudden interruption nearly caused Pa to slip and fall to the ground. "Actually, to restore your magic, besides needing Haiti, you also need a very large space."
"No problem, no problem," thankfully, Miya Xing had mentioned this to him. "We have plenty of empty classrooms at Meng Academy, so please pick one that catches your eye, Sir."
"The specific precautions mainly include Princess Naya and the cute knights, Principal Os will also be present, the entire classroom will be covered with a seal, and Principal Os will lead the Five Stars to reinforce the seals on the doors and windows. These should not interfere with you, Sir?"
Can we really just say these things casually?
Is it really okay to just casually tell the Dark Emperor?
"Of course not, it's a critical time, I understand, I understand." The Dark Emperor was so understanding he almost ground his teeth to powder.
However, if those Quark people think that such defenses are foolproof, they are underestimating the Dark Emperor!
"In that case, let's set the date for tomorrow."
Pa slipped and landed in surprise: "So fast?!"
"Don't you want to recover sooner?"
"I do want to," he murmured, almost forgetting that he was powerless and facing the Dark Emperor himself. "I might... be a little..."
"You're both nervous and excited, aren't you?" He personally cast the Reversal Spell, so he was well aware of the results.
With minimal losses, he defeated Princess Naya, crippled the Captain of the Cute Knights, and dealt a heavy blow to the Cute Academy... Pa Hua hadn't been around for many years; if he knew his true identity, he would have been unable to stand at all.
His suspicions about being tricked subsided considerably, and he patted Pa's shoulder, which had slipped to the ground, as if showing great affection: "With me here, your magic will definitely be restored!"
"Of course, of course, everyone has witnessed your abilities these past few days." Soul was about to be slapped out of his mouth.
Meanwhile, almost simultaneously, Ukunana and Ulala arrived at the faculty dormitory and knocked on Kiki's door:
"Is Kiki-sensei there? There's something I'd like to ask you."
