With his Kagura Mind Eye, he could hear some heated discussion going on..
It was obviously someone making trouble.
Izumi's eyes flickered as he could feel his bloodlust was getting out of control.
Without any further delay he entered the room as he heard something unexpected.
Not everyone noticed his presence as they were too involved in their own interests.
"I think you should let us have some of your group members so they could protect us. And also could teach these novice heroes so it'd be beneficial for the upcoming war. It was your leader's fault anyway."
An old man with white hair and a huge scar beneath his left eye said while looking at Grayfia and others.
Some others also raised whatnot after him...Most of them were excuses and dropped everything on Izumi.
"I don't think this is a good idea. They just help us save our kingdom and we should reward them not bother them." A feminine voice argued back loudly.
Her aura was full of majesty, but due to the current situation she couldn't do much.
"You sho-"
*Knock* *Knock*
"Who!? Who is so arrogant to disturb ou-" The voice swallowed midway when he noticed who it was.
A huge drop of sweat rolled down from his head.
Everyone stopped their discussion and turned towards the door.
All of them instantly became terrified and there was a look of horror in their eyes.
Fuck! Why is he here?
All of them roared inside their heart, well not all of them though. Only those with bad intentions.
"Welcome, Izumi-sama." It was Grayfia's voice that woke them up.
Grayfia walked and stood silently behind Izumi like a dutiful maid.
Tio, Shea, Shizuku, Hajime, Yue and Kaori also followed her suit.
!!
Their group looked extremely menacing.
Only his arrival overwhelmed the whole arguments.
In a moment, the whole room was pin drop silence.
"I don't care who you fuckers are. Don't play my group ideas, otherwise my hands might have slipped like it happened to those cultists."
Izumi said coldly as a blue glint appeared in his eyes.
"Izumi-sama, please allow me to introduce my Mother."
Fortunately, their saviour managed to change the topic.
"Daughter. I can do it myself."
The same feminine voice that argued back stopped her daughter.
"Hello, Izumi Miyamura. I'm the queen of Heiligh Kingdom. Luluaria S.B. Heiligh."
A beautiful woman with blonde hair and blue eyes stood up and introduced herself respectfully.
(Pic Here 😍)
"Hello Queen Luluaria. Since you already know me, there's no need for being introduced."
Izumi responded with a small smile.
This surprised the queen a little.
He was different from what she had imagined.
After all, with all that strength he should either be a proud, arrogant person or conceited person.
Now it seems, she was overthinking.
"Please forgive my ministers rudeness."
She didn't ask him to sit because she could tell this man would not accept it.
Her intuition was right because Izumi indeed was full of disdain for these greedy guys.
The kingdom was now in turmoil and here they were thinking about their own interests without bothering about anything.
Seeing Izumi was silent, she continued on, "I want to invite you all to stay today for a feast."
"Queen Luluaria, our work isn't over yet." After speaking, Izumi looked at Hajime.
As if thinking something, Liliana stood up abruptly.
"What happened, daughter?" Luluaria was puzzled by her daughter's reaction and so were the others.
"Guards, please call all the remaining Hero Party to the biggest conference room." She issued an urgent order.
"Mother and Izumi-sama, please."
Liliana urged everyone to follow her to the largest conference room, leaving the flabbergasted ministers.
______
Izumi and his group were sitting on their table with Grayfia only standing behind Izumi.
Even Liliana and Luluaria were sitting across from them.
Tio was talking and laughing with Queen Luluaria as they both were like long lost best friends.
Shizuku, Kaori, Yue and Shea were talking with each other while Hajime was checking his Guns.
Izumi was just minding his own business, i.e., staring at a certain maid, whose face was a little red at the moment.
All in all, every one of them was waiting for the arrival of Heroes.
*Door opens*
One by one entered the room alongside their teacher Aiko and stood in the corner.
No one spoke and the silence made it a little uncomfortable for some.
"Where are others?" Hajime asked after putting his own Donner on the table.
"Hajime-san, everyone is here except Cookie-kun." Aiko took the lead in replying then couldn't help but sent a glance at Izumi's direction.
She also heard about Cookie's incident and thought Izumi had some hands behind his disappearance.
Many eyes were on Izumi but he seemed to be not caring about it at all.
Only few knew about the inside story.
"Okay, let's leave that topic." Hajime's nonchalant attitude to this made some very angry but they didn't speak.
"I want to know who among you were missing before the shits went upside down." When he asked this, he glanced at Liliana as he knew none of his former classmates would tell the truth.
"I also want to know, please tell everything truthfully."
Those who went with Liliana knew what was going on but they were warned not to disclose any information.
"I think I know." A short black hair girl with a glass raised her hands.
"Oh.." Izumi just raised his eyes as he felt this girl should have been the main antagonist during this arc but somehow her feelings were pure and innocent.
He knew it was different from the original, not so different actually.
He also found out the traitor but kept his mouth shut.
"Nakamura-san, please." Hajime gestured for her to come forward.
Eri couldn't help but feel nervous as there were too many eyes on her.
Seeing it was a friend she was familiar with, Shizuku spoke up.
"Eri-san, don't be nervous. Just say the name. And don't worry nobody could harm you here."
Eri nodded then pointed in a certain direction.
"It's him."
Following her direction, everyone saw an average build and taller boy.
His eyes and hair were both brown, bordering on red. There was a perpetual frown, who was scowling with a disinterested looking face.
(Pic Here)
"Daisuke!"
"It can't be!!"
"No you're lying Eri."
"I know you don't like his bullying habits but you can't just point at someone because you hate him."
Countless students scolded Eri as they simply couldn't believe that Hiyama was the traitor.
Sure enough, it was this boy.
Grayfia thought in her heart as she knew this boy was a little weird from the first time when she laid her eyes on him.
(A/N: In the first labyrinth.)
She then saw Izumi smiling at her.
She sighed and didn't intervene.
"No I'm sure. It was him. I swear I saw him lurking around the barriers before the Demons invaded."
Eri spilled everything she saw.
"At first I thought he was also worried about his other safety. Out of my curiosity, I silently
I silently followed him. Then I heard him talking to himself that he was....he was.." She stuttered as she secretly glanced at Kaori.
Hajime and others understood what she was going to say.
"Eri-san, please." Shizuku felt that the atmosphere wasn't right so she wanted her best friend to speak before anything could happen.
"He said he was going to make Kaorin his sex slave after making her his puppet."
Hajime's murderous aura flared up as he raised Donner and fired off a huge shot at Hiyama head.
But Daisuke wasn't the same as he was before.
He had received some booster dose..lol.
He immediately dodged the attack then threw a small ball at his comrades.
*BOOM*
It exploded as soon it landed making the room full of smoke.
Even after he received some power, his brain hadn't.
So he stupidly believed that it could dazzle Izumi's group.
Except for Kaori and two royals, none of them felt anything.
They could see clearly and their mind became refresh after watching that there were some stupid people in this world.
They watched how Hiyama was approaching here with a wide grin forming on his face, instead of grabbing someone near him by using his nonexistent IQ.
Izumi was resisting his urge to laugh. Even Hajime lost his appetite to kill him instantly.
Izumi waved his hand and all the smoke faded.
Then all of them were stunned excluding Hiyama who was wearing a glass so he didn't notice.
Even the queen Luluaria covered her mouth as she felt this Daisuke was really a weirdo.
Hajime didn't say anything, he shot directly at Hiyama's left thigh.
"Fuckkk!"
Daisuke Hiyama scream echoed throughout the room.
He was clutching his thigh while slurping his snots.
None of them came to help him.
Not even those who were defending him.
In an instant Hajime arrived and kicked Hiyama in the chest and sent him flying.
Normally, one blow would be enough to cause Hiyama's entire body to burst apart, however because he held back a bit, it only caused numerous bones to break and damage the internal organs. By now he should have fainted in the wall, once he wakes up again from the pain, the hell would likely once again begin.
"Luluaria-chan and Liliana-chan, here you go." Tio immediately waved her hand and two small 5 ml bottles appeared in front of both mother and daughter.
They were a little clueless.
"Fufufufu~ That smoke which you inhaled contains a high amount of poison. If there were no antidotes within one hour then you're dead."
They didn't think twice and guzzle up the bottle in seconds.
What about those so-called weebs?
Tio purposely raised her voice so they could hear her words.
And they were now panicking.
Shizuku distributed the divine water to every girl, leaving boys who were extending their hands embarrassed.
She remembered how this group of boys were blaming her for leaving.
"Hey, what about us?" One of them couldn't wait anymore and asked anxiously.
"Huh? Why should we?" Izumi responded sarcastically.
".."
"The moment you arrived here, I could detect your "good" intents directed at me and my party. Also, these bottles are made by me. You still have a face to ask." Izumi said with utter disdain.
Their bodies froze after hearing his words.
Yes, they were jealous of why both Hajime and Izumi would always have beautiful women around them.
So they keep cursing in their hearts because they can't beat them to vent their jealousy.
"Fufufu~ Izumi-chan is really right." Tio eyes glowed dangerously as she also felt their dirty thoughts.
"Hajime, you should finish that rat... or else he'll die from blood loss. I'm getting bored here, Bye." Izumi teleported suddenly startling everyone.
Only Grayfia was staring at the vacant place then followed not before placing the teleportation mark.
