I, Izayoi Sakamaki, Joined the Chat Group at the Start – Chapter 249

Mithras answered casually, "The Ishtar people are accusing us Hounds of Tindalos of abducting one of their own."

"What a joke. Even though our two races have always been mortal enemies…"

"Our Hounds of Tindalos Clan would never abduct an Ishtar person for no reason!"

"If we caught one, we’d eat it on the spot!"

Faced with Mithras’s matter-of-fact account, Izayoi Sakamaki’s expression grew increasingly strange.

Why did he feel like…

They had suddenly fallen into a Mobius Ring…

Chapter 447: Kurumi, What Do You Think?

Although Izayoi Sakamaki felt somewhat strange about it, Spacetime had long since been messed around with beyond recognition, so he did not say anything.

Once they reached that time and space, they could just grab an Ishtar person and run.

To hell with the consequences!

Chloe had no objections to bringing Izayoi Sakamaki along.

After all, bringing Izayoi Sakamaki meant bringing the girl.

And with the girl there, what was there to fear?

Chloe’s plan had been wonderful, but she had not expected it to turn out even better.

In a time and space from who knew how long ago.

Izayoi Sakamaki and Chloe strolled through it.

Tokisaki Kurumi followed behind them, smiling sweetly.

Chloe glanced back, shuddered, and immediately turned forward again, not daring to look back.

Perhaps it was because she had too little experience of her own.

Clearly, both she and the girl behind her were Spacetime manipulators, yet the other girl’s ability to summon versions of herself from different timelines…

Was truly terrifying.

Chloe even had an illusion.

If the other party wanted to capture her and do whatever she pleased with her, it would take no effort at all.

…What was more, it was not just that terrifying girl who had come.

There was also a whole group of humans.

By Chloe’s standards as a Hound of Tindalos, every one of them was an exceptionally handsome man or beautiful woman.

Their abilities were each frighteningly powerful as well.

Chloe spoke in a low voice, "Lord Izayoi, why is that person behind us always following us?"

She was seriously about to cry, okay?!

Izayoi Sakamaki looked back at Tokisaki Kurumi and happened to meet her sweetly smiling, obedient expression.

He casually said, "What’s wrong? Kurumi is a very well-behaved girl. She has the same abilities as you, so you should have plenty in common."

Chloe wanted to cry even more.

How could they possibly have anything in common?!

Compared to her, the girl called Tokisaki Kurumi was practically the embodiment of malice!

Even vicious hunting hounds like them did not seem as terrifying as her!

Izayoi Sakamaki could also sense Chloe’s nervousness.

Indeed, compared with his Chat Group members, Chloe was like a pure, pitiful little puppy.

The kind that could be tricked away in just a few words.

His reason for not letting the others interact with her was simple.

Aizen Sōsuke, who was interested in her, could make Chloe utterly devoted to him with just a few words.

Zhongli, meanwhile, had no interest in her.

As for the others, aside from Tokisaki Kurumi, no one could suppress the unruly Hounds of Tindalos.

They could not always leave such matters to Izayoi Sakamaki and the girl.

Besides, they might end up facing an entire Ishtar people clan.

However, when Izayoi Sakamaki thought of the few scattered stragglers he would be facing later, he had a rough idea of the situation.

In this war, the Hounds of Tindalos had clearly won.

He had already seen the Hounds of Tindalos before.

Not counting the hounds pursuing those who traveled through time and space, or those guarding Tindalos City.

There had been at least two hundred right before his eyes.

Yet the Ishtar people’s tribe had fewer than fifty members in total.

Of course, perhaps some Ishtar people were still out there plundering civilizations.

But without Chloe’s help, the Ishtar people were not far from extinction.

They would not be able to find a second Hound of Tindalos to help conceal their tracks.

Unless the remaining Ishtar people stopped trying to travel through time and space and stopped acquiring knowledge from other civilizations.

If they hid their identities and lived in obscurity, they might still be able to survive.

But asking the Ishtar people to change their nature?

That would probably be very difficult.

So the Ishtar people were destined to perish.

Therefore, although Izayoi Sakamaki had called over his Chat Group members on this journey and had everyone search for them.

He truly did not take the Ishtar people seriously.

The Ishtar people who had not obtained Chloe were merely a group of pitiful creatures who used the sacrifices of their own race to obtain knowledge.

Under the joint pursuit of the Hounds of Tindalos and the Chat Group members, the Ishtar people would definitely suffer devastating losses this time.

The girl alone could handle all of them.

Very soon, Tokisaki Kurumi behind them let out a soft laugh.

As Izayoi Sakamaki and Chloe both looked over.

Tokisaki Kurumi curved her eyes and slowly said,

"It seems we’ve found some Ishtar people."

"However, they don’t appear to be the main force."

In this era, the Ishtar people still had to sacrifice some of their own in order to obtain precious knowledge.

This also indirectly proved that whether the race was strong or not, it would have a large number of members (Qian Li Zhao).

If only a small group had appeared, Tokisaki Kurumi found it hard not to persuade herself to go up and kill them.

But Izayoi Sakamaki told her to hold herself back and ordered all the Chat Group members to gather.

They absolutely had to let Aizen Sōsuke try using Kyōka Suigetsu.

Perhaps they could find the location of the main force through this small unit.

Moreover, there definitely would not be anyone important among this batch of Ishtar people. They needed to capture someone with enough status to freely enter and leave the library.

Izayoi Sakamaki thought that such a person would surely hold a high position among the Ishtar people.

It was precisely because they had captured such an Ishtar person that the Ishtar people had launched an unprecedented war against the Hounds of Tindalos…

Chapter 448: You Just Want Her Body

With that in mind, Izayoi Sakamaki looked at Chloe, leaving her completely baffled.

She could not help asking, "May I ask… is something wrong?"

Ever since she had devoted herself to Tindalos City, Chloe had held the deepest admiration for Mithras.

It was hard to say whether that was because Mithras had previously been willing to put himself in danger to save her.

And because of Mithras, Chloe had become extremely respectful toward Izayoi Sakamaki.

Thus, the journey had been rather awkward.

Especially since, for some reason, that little girl Tokisaki Kurumi wore a meaningful smile.

She stood behind them without making a sound at all.

Doesn’t she know how to liven up the atmosphere?!

Of course, Izayoi Sakamaki was only idly thinking that to amuse himself amid the awkwardness.

If Tokisaki Kurumi really came over for a casual chat, Izayoi Sakamaki would instead get chills down his spine.

After all, whenever she looked over with that gentle smile, anyone who knew her true nature would go numb from their feet to their head.

Don’t misunderstand—it was not because they were charmed by her smile. 857

They simply shuddered at the thought of the bloodshed and horror lurking behind that face.

Izayoi Sakamaki gave a light cough, then said softly, "So, should we go meet those Ishtar people now, or follow them from a distance?"

Chloe respectfully replied, "Please decide, my lord."

Izayoi Sakamaki turned to look at Tokisaki Kurumi.

She had just recalled the last version of herself she had summoned from the timeline.

Seeing Izayoi Sakamaki’s gaze, she smiled back at him.

There was innocent confusion in her eyes, as if she were openly pretending not to know what Izayoi Sakamaki wanted to say.

Izayoi Sakamaki said helplessly, "Kurumi, what do you think?"

Tokisaki Kurumi knew that if she kept making Izayoi Sakamaki uncomfortable like this, she herself would have it worse.

So she slowly said, "Let’s go. Aizen has already taken control of those Ishtar people. He’s just waiting for you to take a look and make a decision."

Izayoi Sakamaki could not help rolling his eyes. "Isn’t that the same as saying nothing?"

Tokisaki Kurumi replied with a soft laugh, "How could that be? I clearly said that we’ll all listen to you."

Izayoi Sakamaki could not be bothered with this little girl, who had somehow recently learned how to speak so sarcastically.

When they arrived at the location Aizen Sōsuke had provided, almost everyone else was already there.

Tatsumaki even grumbled under her breath, "You guys took way too long."

Zhongli asked, "Did something happen on the way?"

Before Izayoi Sakamaki could answer, Tokisaki Kurumi covered her mouth and said softly from the side,

"Mr. Izayoi took some time in the middle to deal with a little problem of his own."

Everyone: "????"

At once, everyone’s expressions as they looked at Izayoi Sakamaki changed.

Even Akemi Homura paused, understood what was meant, and revealed a faintly disgusted expression.

Izayoi Sakamaki said, "What little problem? Chloe was scared by Tokisaki Kurumi and refused to use Spacetime travel no matter what."

The Chat Group members froze.

Akemi Homura directly asked, "What did Kurumi do?"
