GOD OF CRIME: STRONGEST MAFIA BOSS - Chapter 474 CH 460: PHANTASM REALM (2)
Chapter 474 CH 460: PHANTASM REALM (2)
The moment Tsubasa opened her Phantasm Realm, encroaching her world on this one, the sky seemed to be torn apart as the two domains started to clash.
Reality was twisted under her will as her vision of what an ideal world should be was imposed on the world balanced by the Scales, creating clashes between her will, the world’s will, and Fenrir’s will.
At first, she simply looked like a small boat about to capsize as it faced endless waves but soon, she appeared to be like a large pillar that would never waver even while holding the weight of Heaven itself.
As the pressure grew, her presence too grew in tandem and soon the world she wished to create was established as it encroached upon reality and made its place known to the Scales.
Adam opened his eyes wide, witnessing, absorbing, and analyzing the entire process down to the very minute detail. This was the second true Phantasm Realm he observed after the one used by his mother and he had to admit that it was quite impressive. Almost as impressive as his mother’s.
The ground and the sky changed colors. A dark and ominous sun appeared high above, bathing the world in a sinister light. Houses hailing from feudal Japan seemed to have manifested all around them, and soon, sinister laughter filled with anger and madness filled their ears, coming from the depths of the house.
Takoda grunted slightly, and Adam’s ears ringed loudly. Those laughs were mental attacks and even without being the target they were slightly affected by the onset of the laughter, being on the opposite side, bearing the full brunt of this attack, would be maddening to, say the least.
The appearance of Tsubasa changed gradually, her modern clothes transforming into a large and regal red-themed kimono, alongside her white and red fox mask, she seemed like a queen standing above all as though it was only natural; as though it was her birthright.
From the houses, hundreds of shadows poured out in streams, laughing and dancing, singing and grinning to themselves in a haze of lunacy and evil. Monsters of all sizes and forms ushered out and stood in perfect unity, meanwhile, a few of them held a royal palanquin, walking until they kneeled in front of Tsubasa.
Those were the hundred demons but they numbered in the thousand or at least their shadows did. Adam could notice that out of the hundreds of shadows, two were corporeal giving him a certain idea of what kind of ideals this realm was made upon.
‘This is fucking crazy…’
[Does she intend to seal all yokai within herself? This is utter madness.]
Once again, even Genesis was seemingly astounded, as he commented in its iconic toneless voice, by the existence that was Tsubasa.
Adam finally observed Tsubasa herself, watching as she took place on the palanquin with royal grace in each and every single one of her movements. His Eyes of Truth revealed her stats and he had to say—
『 Name: Tsubasa Hanekawa

Remark: This is a monster in all but form. The kind of genius born once in a hundred or thousands of years or perhaps, a millennium. People who break all common sense just through their existence alone. Had she not stopped her training midway, she would have been beyond anything you could have ever imagined. Hold on to her thighs for as long as possible. 』
“Fuck…”
Those were undoubtedly the highest stats he had seen on a human to date outside of his mother of course. Her physical stats were all close to the absolute limit of what humanity was allowed to achieve and her other stats were not falling far behind.
‘Also, just what was up with those aliases? Just what in the hell?’
“Magician. You can enter soon. But please, be fast. I do not think I will be able to keep it up for too long.”
All the summoned hundred demons ignored Adam and started to kneel in worship before Tsubasa, and their power climbed steadily as the clash between the two realms occurred in real-time, ignoring the will of the world.
Adam looked at the palanquin deeply. Even though she was hidden behind the obstruction of the palanquin’s walls, she could not escape his sight and he could see it clearly— the trail of blood flowing from her lips and the air of determination on her face.
Adam could practically witness it. No matter what happened, Tsubasa would not close the gate out of her own free will. Even if she had to die for it.
“I will come back soon.”
“I know you will.”
Her face betrayed no fear nor hesitations. Only absolute confidence in his abilities and words.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he looked back at Takoda who had wisely stayed silent throughout the process and merely looked on at the fluctuating gate with eyes filled with determination of his own.
By taking this step forward, there would be no going back,
“Let’s go.”
It was time for him to get back his woman.

Sitting in the paladin in the Lotus position, Tsubasa repeated the Sutra inwardly while observing everything that was transpiring in the outside realm. Truthfully, she was still not giving it her all, but she didn’t want to use her last measure right at this moment.
No matter what happened, Adam would not die. At most only Tsubasa, Takoda, and half of Los Angeles would be erased from existence.
She had no care for such a horrific outcome. Humans could reproduce very fast and either way, at the rate things were going, billions might die anyway from an extinction-level event. So a few million of them was truly not a big deal.
“Your Majesty. Enemies are incoming.”
One of the Yokai that were in their incorporeal shadow form muttered to her in a small voice. When Tsubasa heard its voice, her ears twitching, she looked behind her to get a grasp on the enemies that had invaded her world.
Normally, it would have been impossible for someone to enter her domain so easily. But because of the current deadlock against the Phantasm Realm cast by Fenrir, her realm was also wide open for others to invade.
Soon, an aura of death and desolation spread in her domain and the enemies attacking made themselves known to her.
She immediately recognized them for what they were and though she should have been in a precarious situation, she could only smile when she saw the type of enemies that she faced,
“Fate is truly with me.”
One of the potential enemies in the incoming trip was a man who played with the dead and Adam also had the power to manipulate the dead.
The funniest thing was— that she also had such a power. [1]
She could not have asked for better enemies right now.
“Come, dear beings from the beyond. Let me give you eternal honor by making you suitable nourishment for my filial subjects.”
She was truly delighted and now all she had to do was to hold on and observe.
Her gaze slowly moved and looked at Natasha’s house which was beyond the veil of Ice and Snow. She could not truly it and she had sensed it only for an instant but…
… But she trusted her instincts.
Someone was observing her.
Someone unfathomably dangerous.
Compared to that person, those magical undead were nothing but mere appetizers.
She hoped that this intruder would keep quiet until the very end.
Otherwise, she would have to bring out the big gun and fight him in earnest with all she had.

[1]: Won’t go into detail too much. Amaterasu is the goddess of the sun, the imperial power, and also has a minor authority over death as she hides in the underworld while throwing a tantrum. Said tantrum plunged the world into eternal darkness and killed humans like nothing. But well. It’s a myth. All gods’ tantrums kill humans one way or another.
That or they end up being raped. Not easy being human.
