Tokyo Wrestler

The second sleazy superhuman was also very weak; Sett didn't even know what the other's superpower was before he killed him.

Sett is now recalling the exact timing of the two assassination attempts and the anonymous text messages sent in advance for each one.

The timing of the first assassination and anonymous text message was right when he had completed his mission and was 40 experience points away from leveling up. The timing of the second assassination and anonymous text message was when he was just one more ability user mission away from leveling up...

In other words...

The Lazy King is deliberately giving me experience points!!!

This shocking conjecture sent Sett's adrenaline soaring, his entire body trembling involuntarily. His mind reeled as if overwhelmed by a tsunami, and Sett stood frozen in place...

Everything kept flashing through his mind.

According to the madman's diary, the Sloth King and the madman should have had a good relationship...

The mad scientist smuggled himself into Takamagahara... The Qinghe Group also entered Takamagahara, and upon their return, they found that a supernatural being and a cultivator coexisted within their bodies... Eikichi Kaito also possessed both an Onmyoji and a supernatural being, and perhaps he had contact with the mad scientist...

Was the "old legacy of the mad scientist" that I bought from a street vendor for 300 yen truly a matter of "luck"?

Through the Old Tune Squad, I met the Witch and obtained inside information about the Monster Association, uncovering the mastermind behind the assassination attempts on me and my older sister, "Eiji Kaito," and thus discovering the existence of the Sloth King...

By the way, the reason the witch was able to obtain Kaito Eiji's specific itinerary was because she found it in the personal journals that Sloth King kept for each captain of the Monster Association...

Is everything going so smoothly a coincidence? Or was it all meticulously planned from the beginning...?

hiss...

The increasingly complex and confusing information made Sett's head buzz.

My brain is simply not enough!

He only felt that... he might have already fallen into the trap of being a level 9 demigod...

The only good news is that neither the mad scientist nor the king of laziness has shown any overt malice.

The former not only showed no malice, but even revealed a lot of goodwill, such as the level 9 spiritual artifact "The Madman's Old Legacy," and the Old Tune Squad and the exploration of the Old Legacy...

Although the latter sent two assassination attempts, the intensity of those attempts was clearly insufficient for his level 9 demigod status; instead, it felt more like "helping him grow stronger by plucking a feather," or "deliberately offering himself up for failure"... His attitude was neither friendly nor hostile...

*Whew...* Sett suddenly exhaled, and said self-deprecatingly:

Good news: It's been dug up.

'Bad news: What we dug up is something quite significant...'

beep beep beep

The wrist-worn computer next to Sett suddenly sounded an alarm, and the latter quickly looked down to check, then hurriedly shouted:

"We have received a notification from the branch headquarters. Lady Yasha-hime has issued a new order that all of us must return to the Nerima branch headquarters as quickly as possible!"

Upon hearing this, Sett looked up instantly.

The golden-white sun on the horizon had dimmed considerably.

Is Yasha-hime about to lose?

As Kameda Kazumitsu shouted, the Takeda squad around him sprang into action, no longer daring to linger. Some moved Eikichi Kaito's body, while others left...

Only the flat-chested little shrine maiden and the monk Takeda kept chattering away.

Ito Yumuri glanced at her indifferently.

The former immediately went out as if the trigger had been released.

He carried the ordinary woman, who was out of danger, on his back, and ran out of the wetland park with his short legs, into the luxury van.

...

Kazumitsu Kameda drove his luxury van, drifting along the overpass.

Sett sat in the luxurious back seat, gazing out the window at the night sky and the countless brilliant stars.

His mind was still replaying all the speculations from earlier, and he racked his brains to review all the information, trying not to overlook any detail...

Sudden.

Ito Yumuri, who was sitting next to him, leaned closer.

Although she still had that expressionless, emotionless look, her cool little hand reached out and gently rubbed Sett's furrowed brows.

"what happened?"

She's not good with words, and if someone who doesn't know her doesn't understand her, they might think she's deliberately provoking them.

But Sett could still sense the concern beneath the cold tone, so he turned his head away.

Looking at Ito Yurika's cool, clear eyes that seemed to ripple like autumn water, her delicate and beautiful eyebrows, and her fair and radiant face...

After thinking for a moment, he said:

"If... I mean if, there are several very, very strong monsters blocking your way, and you have no way to defeat them or escape them, what would you do?"

Upon hearing this, Ito Yumuri responded without hesitation.

Her thin lips curved into a barely perceptible smile, yet on her fair and delicate face, it was as striking and alluring as a night-blooming cereus blooming in the darkness.

Her tone suddenly became a little strange, and she deliberately made her voice deeper as she said:

"If you can't beat them, just train harder! If you can't escape, just hide! Why bother with so many rules and regulations?"

"You are you, and you must walk your own path in the future."

Upon hearing this familiar cynical quote, Sett paused for a moment, then couldn't help but chuckle.

After the master fooled the apprentice, the apprentice then started fooling the master.

Utter defeat. Utter defeat.

Sett once again extended his index finger and gently stroked Ito Yumuri's delicate nose, this time deliberately slower and more gently, moving it inch by inch along the curve...

This intimate gesture made the latter blush, her eyes misting over like a fawn hiding its head, and a rare blush appeared on her usually cool face, like the glow of the sunset reflected in the clear pond.

Bang!

She slammed her head down hard, burying it in the seat so Sett wouldn't see her expression.

Haha... Looking at the adorable side of the ice queen, Sett shook his head and chuckled twice.

immediately.

He clenched his fist tightly.

Yes!

He knew very well that the power he possessed was absolutely real, belonged to him, and no one could take it away from him!

So...

I don't care if you're a mad scientist, a lazy god, a level 9 demigod, or a Takamagahara...

I want to level up, I want to get stronger...

I will be strong enough that when you dare to step forward...

"Bang bang!" That's two punches!!

Nothing more than this, this is simply my friendly way of greeting people, Sett!

Chapter 59 The Shock of the Sky Pillar Captains (4/10)

When Sett and his group returned to the two-story building at the Nerima Tenju branch.

The atmosphere here felt somewhat stagnant and somber.

The unremarkable Yasha-hime, wearing a blood-red fox tail mask, sat on a small stool.

Her shrine maiden robes were covered in black and red bloodstains, and there was a horrifying, huge wound on her shoulder.

The wound was V-shaped and concave, revealing pale shoulder bone and constantly writhing flesh.

Among them, every strand of blood in Yasha Hime's body seemed to have grown tiny hands, constantly pulling from both sides toward the center, trying to heal the wound.

But each time it reached halfway, it would suddenly dissipate.

There seemed to be an invisible force at the wound site, constantly suppressing Yasha-hime's super-fast regeneration.

What level of enemy did she encounter... that could make the level 6 peak Yasha-hime so disheveled... Sett turned his gaze and saw a middle-aged man with stubble wearing a floral haori not far from Yasha-hime.

With sparse stubble and hazy, slightly squinting eyes, the man had the look of a mature and handsome older man. He was also quite tall, about 1.8 meters, without any signs of middle-aged weight gain, and had a well-proportioned and upright figure.

But the pink and red haori he wore, which seemed to encompass the entire spring garden, and the sake gourd he casually carried in his hand, added to his image as a drunkard and a slacker.

He wasn't seriously injured, and a black samurai sword hung at his waist.

Although the sword was not drawn, Settino stared at it for a while, and he could faintly hear the clanging of blades and see the flashing of swords before his eyes...

Sett turned around and compared his appearance with that of Ito Yumuri.

I can roughly guess who this person is:

Ito Kaizaburo, head of the Tenshu Nerima branch, younger brother of the Ito family head, a level 7 Saint Warrior!

This is the second saint Sett has encountered.

Back then, Sett had only just reached level 2 in the underground boxing ring, and it was impossible to tell that the old monk Shimizu Akira was anything different from ordinary people.
