The Goddess Of War
Chapter 169 - Interviews In Associations



"To be honest, their strength was very different compared to other monsters that once existed. I mean, the type of magic energy they have is also very different." Anna persuaded the reporters to ask her again in the direction she wanted.


The reporter was stunned. He then turned to his comrades and they looked at each other for a moment before again asking Anna, "What do you mean by that different magic energy, Miss Anna?"


Anna sighed softly. Deliberately making his facial expression look like a person who is having a lot of heavy burden in his life.


"Actually, after the many experiences we encountered while in and out of the Dungeon, we found another creature that had a different type of Mana energy to the monsters that had been enemies of all the Hunters in the world,"


"If you've probably heard or read a mythical figure told by our forefathers back then, you'll probably know what I mean" Anna swept her gaze again across the reporters, before continuing his sentence, "Have you all heard of a demon named Damballa?"


The reporters, who looked at Anna in turn, nodded.


"We met him once when a dungeon break occurred in downtown C first."


"What?!"


The reporters looked at each other again. Although monsters are very common in today's world, they do not think that mythical demons like Damballa are real.


Anna glanced at Li Wen Xia. He smiled at the woman. The question from the reporter was really an unexpected question, which made him a little happy.


"It just so happens that you ask. Actually, those monsters were in a different race than the other monsters. They are demons." Said Anna, still staring at Li Wen Xia.


Anna saw the change in expression on Li Wen Xia's face. The soft smile that had been on the lips of the woman disappeared instantly.


"So, you and your fellow Nine Bears managed to defeat him, Miss Anna?" ask the reporters again.


Anna nodded. "We managed to kill the demon that was causing the dungeon to break in City C."


After Anna finished speaking, she then picked up her smartphone. He types a message very quickly, then sends it to Miyuki.


"Then, what about the demons that were in the SS-ranked Dungeon in the Fiji Islands?"


Anna was about to answer the question, but she stopped her intentions when she received a reply from Miyuki.


Anna suspected there would be questions as to how they could discern a Mana energy. That's why he immediately contacted Miyuki. He sends a message and asks if Miyuki can make a device to detect the difference in Mana energy and how long it takes Miyuki to create the device.


However, unexpectedly, Miyuki immediately replied :


"I've made the tools. Whenever you need to, you can show it to the public."


"Miss Anna?"


"Ah, yes. Sorry." Said Anna who then smiled as she returned her smartphone to the hoodie pocket.


"The devil in that SS-ranked Dungeon, we only managed to expel him. I thought they were scared to the point of running away."


The reporter looked surprised. Indeed, from the viewpoint of the audience, they could not watch how the blonde-haired lady and the red Dragon escaped into the black hole, as it was shielded by the cliff.


In fact, they also did not see the incident when Anna blew up the black Dragon. All they knew and witnessed was Anna who seemed to be using her power to blow up the Dungeon, as the camera shot at that time pointed at Anna who was hovering in the air.


"M-they're running away?" ask Reporters.


"Yes. I managed to kill the black Dragon, unfortunately, the red Dragon and the female demon managed to escape." Anna said, glancing at Li Wen Xia who immediately returned the gaze with a sharp look.


Glup...


The reporter suddenly felt nervous. Likewise with other journalists and the crew who were broadcasting the interview live throughout Southeast Asia.


What they think is the same. If the two creatures manage to escape, it means that there will still be a great threat coming.


Li Wen Xia looked at Anna with a feeling of anger, while Anna smiled at him.


'If you want to make a mess, let's make it bigger.'


These words were not spoken by Anna directly. However, Li Wen Xia could guess what Anna was thinking just from the look in her eyes.


"Wait a minute, Miss Anna." Li Wen Xia finally came along to speak, "You just said that you can distinguish the Mana energy of the monsters we are used to, from the demons. How do you do it?"


Anna smiled. He could already guess that there would be such a question, but did not expect that Li Wen Xia himself would ask him.


"We'll show you how. Tomorrow, 9 AM will conduct a press conference at 9 AM headquarters in City C. Let's see tomorrow." Sahut Anna's.


Li Wen Xia was silent for a moment. However, he did not immediately run out of sense to corner Anna. He asked again, "Then, what about your strength, Miss Anna? I've seen the results of your identification on the World Association's website that you're just an F-rated Hunter. So, how do you even look stronger than SSSS-ranked Kevin Jung?" Li Wen Xia ended the sentence with his cynical smile.


Anna really did not want to explain where her power came from, as she also did not know for sure.


Anna does not deliberately want to hide the experience she has been through for 15,000 years to train her abilities. He just did not want to bother with the questions that will certainly be asked after the story of his life is known to many people.


So, Anna answered him with origin.


"Mrs Li. The Creator of the universe will not leave man alone when monstrous monsters and demons roam the world of His creation. So, the Creator gave His power to someone to exterminate the bearers of the disaster." Anna, ended with a smile that was no less cynical than Li Wen Xia's smile.


Li Wen Xia almost laughed when he heard the explanation, if he did not remember any of the reporters and the Association crew being there.


"So, what do you want to say..., You are the messenger of the Creator?" chase Li Wen Xia.


Anna smiled awkwardly.


'Well, let people think I look like someone who will create a new sect.'


"You said it yourself, Ms. Li." Sahut Anna then.

Anna was forced to leave by boarding a plane belonging to 9 AM as her transportation, because she did not want her teleportation ability to be known to the public and made them wonder.


Anna fears that her 'crime' of carrying out illegal raids in many countries will be revealed when people find out that she can teleport. All people know all this time is that he has the ability to run super fast to invisible.


Looking out the window and seeing the blue sky dotted with clouds, Anna thought again of her failed plan. He had wanted to talk alone with Li Wen Xia and bully her.


Even if the plan fails, but the interview that he really did not want was in the end a little bit to give Anna a feeling of excitement when the unexpected question from the reporters at the end of the interview really had managed to restore her mood that Li had broken Wen Xia's.


'Well, except the last one.'


Feeling ashamed of herself as she recalled that, Anna covered her face with both hands.

"Miyu's. When did you invent that detector?" anna asked, as soon as she met Miyuki in the underground laboratory.


"I've been preparing for a long time."


Anna looked at Miyuki in amazement.


Meanwhile Miyuki immediately switched the conversation. He did not want Anna to know that it was actually the creation of the Mana energy detection device he did out of curiosity at Anna's Mana energy.


"I've asked my people to pick up his tools last night."


"Your people? When did they come?"


Miyuki looked at Anna with a lazy look. "Five months ago. They've even worked in a lab at the 9 AM company building and people at 9 AM already know them very well. How do you not even know?"


Anna felt a little guilty when she found out about it. He did not even have time to have long discussions with his comrades as they gathered in the laboratory.


If there is free time, Anna usually goes directly to a country by teleporting. He then sneaked into the Dungeon gate, opened the gate into the underground laboratory, then asked his comrades who were waiting to enter and conduct a raid. Anna was too focused on improving the ranking of all the Nine Bears members.


"Please convey my apology to them. Next time I'll visit them."


"You can meet them tomorrow."


Anna agreed.


"But, you look really happy, don't you?" miyuki asked when she saw the happy face of Anna who was watching a replay of her interview at the central Association office yesterday.


"Happy? He set me up. I'm just making a mess."


"Tsk.., you know, all the citizens may feel insecure again after you say they've escaped."


"Not really. That way, we'll get a lot of raid calls. Isn't that nice?"


"Good indeed. But you're ruining people's mood."


Anna : "..."


Miyuki who still looks at Anna : "..."


Anna finally gave up. "Well, it's my fault."


Miyuki put down her laptop and sat leaning leisurely on the same sofa that Anna was sitting on.


"But it doesn't seem like that's all that makes you happy."


Anna turned to Miyuki again, looking at her in confusion.


"You mean?"


"I can see what you're doing in the Fiji Islands."


Anna frowned. "What am I doing?"


Miyuki grunting.


"You want me to say it?"


Anna quiet. He really did not understand the intent behind Miyuki's question.


"Do I need to replace the news with messages from your phone?"


"Huh? What do you mean..."


Anna's eyes widened. He finally realized what Miyuki meant.


"Miyu! You're really terrible!"


Miyuki finally laughed. She was really happy to have found the other side of Anna.


"I'll keep it a secret, okay?"


"You're an international stalker!"
