I'm just an internet cafe owner

Brand warned warily, "Be careful, he's very strong, we..."

"Shh~"

Minato Namikaze appeared behind him, a kunai held to his neck, and said, "Move again and you'll die."

This wasn't mockery, but the truth. The moment he made his move, Minato Namikaze sensed the aura of a dragon. He had thought he was about to have a great battle, but he never expected that the aura would come from the armor worn by the man in front of him.

Mine asked anxiously, "What should we do?"

Brand made the decision immediately: "The mission target is dead, the mission is complete, do not get into trouble with irrelevant people."

"Unable to... bury..."

Akame, whose killing skills were unmatched in the entire organization, clearly sensed that the blond man in front of her was no ordinary person, and might even surpass the legendary Esdeath.

She hadn't been able to detect the speed of Minato's actions at all; it was as if he had appeared there in an instant. Appeared in an instant? A bad feeling suddenly crossed her mind.

“I'll look at Tatsumi's request: kill all the monsters. You…”

The people in front of him weren't classified as monsters by the system; they were human, so they weren't mission targets. However, looking down at the city from this high vantage point, Minato Namikaze couldn't help but laugh, "Looks like we've taken on a pretty big mission. How long will it take to kill so many people? Oh well, it's rare to encounter so many 'monsters,' so let's just treat it as a break and practice our street fighting skills."

Minato Namikaze misunderstood Tatsumi's mission. The 'monster' Tatsumi asked to kill was from this mansion. However, when Minato saw so many red-named monsters in the town, he subconsciously thought that Tatsumi felt there were too many and couldn't handle them all, so he called for reinforcements.

Since he was already here, he figured he might as well take care of this while he was at it. It was only twelve hours, and even Minato Namikaze felt this was a bit of a hassle in such a large town. As a ninja, regardless of the reward for a mission, once he accepted it, he had to do his best to complete it.

"I don't have time to play house with you guys anymore, bye-bye~"

Since the other party was human, and he hadn't tried to kill him when they first met, Minato Namikaze prepared to make his move once he was sure Tatsumi and his companions had run far away.

"Kill them from the outside in. Whoever runs out of this circle should be killed first."

A massive golden light from the sky enveloped the entire town, and with the appearance of the light, Minato Namikaze and the clone teardrop vanished.

As Minato Namikaze disappeared, the Night Raid members broke out in a cold sweat.

They witnessed Minato Namikaze summoning this golden barrier with their own eyes.

Brand's demonic possession was instantly dispelled, and the others' Imperial Arms seemed to sense something and became unusable.

Imperial Arms are weapons created using special techniques from materials found on Super Dangerous Species. Even if they are already dead, they will completely give up resistance when they sense the power of a god.

Minato Namikaze, on the other hand, killed one demigod and god after another with his own power, and finally became the King of Elden in the Elden Ring.

When the power of the Elden Ring erupts, any living being has only two choices: to submit or to fight, and these weapons chose to submit.

Because Tatsumi was underground and couldn't see what was happening outside, when Yoshida Saki was digging three holes and filling one, Tatsumi asked worriedly, "Will the old man be alright?"

"No, no! Although his strength is not bad~ hey hey hey?"

Kushina

Just as she was about to brag about her husband, she suddenly received a message from Minato Namikaze.

"Please help me, this is a bit of a hassle."

"Something bad has happened." Kushina said with a serious expression, "I need to go help him after I get you to a safe place."

Do you need my help?

Kushina refused Tatsumi's request: "You are the one who applied for the mission, and we are the ninjas who accepted it. You just need to wait patiently, and we will complete your mission. It's just that she..."

"I'm fine!"

Tatsumi carried Sayu in his arms, one in front and one on his back, but fortunately there were no enemies blocking his way, so moving around wasn't too difficult.

After digging a tunnel at an angle to send Kushina out, Yoshida Saki continued digging forward. She wasn't good at fighting, but her tunnel-digging skills were unparalleled; even Homura Akemi couldn't compare to her.

As they dug a tunnel to escape, Kushina also reached the top.

“I thought Tatsumi was referring to enemies only around the mansion, but I didn’t expect there to be so many… Big Fox, you’ve got to work.”

"I won't do it!"

The Nine-Tails' voice appeared in Kushina's consciousness. She realized that the Nine-Tails was becoming increasingly difficult to control. Meanwhile, the Nine-Tails, lying in its seal, drinking cola, eating potato chips, and watching the Legend of Sword and Fairy, said, "Tomorrow I'm eating Ichiraku Ramen, or I'm not doing this."

Although the food at the internet cafe was delicious, Ichiraku Ramen was also quite unique. Nine-Tails felt that food obtained for free was even more appealing than food that cost money.

"Fine! You can eat your fill."

With Kushina's promise, the power of the Nine-Tails instantly enveloped her. One of the strongest in the empire in the town immediately noticed Kushina, and it seemed that a great battle was about to begin.

His appearance made Minato Namikaze and Kushina feel slightly troubled, because the mission was to kill the red-named monster, not to kill a powerful normal person.

Chapter 150 Minato Namikaze Quickly Clears the Gates and Slays the Red Emperor Capital

Minato Namikaze didn't go to assassinate each of them one by one with Flying Thunder God Technique. Instead, he took out the Golden Tree Mark from his backpack and prepared to use Prayer.

He took out the Infinite Mana and the Holy Grail Drops that increased Holy damage, drank them down, and for the next twenty seconds he would have infinite power.

Golden light emanated from his body, and one golden meteor after another shot out from within him. The golden meteors enveloped the entire capital, and wherever the golden light touched, screams of agony followed.

Blocked? Not at all. This golden meteor seems to possess intelligence, bypassing all obstacles and striking its target precisely.

General Budo, currently the strongest man in the capital, wore a grim expression upon seeing the golden meteor. This power was completely beyond his imagination. A Teigu? Such a Teigu simply did not exist. If such a Teigu existed, either the Empire would be gone, or the rebels would have been wiped out long ago; it was impossible for it to have dragged on until now.

The golden light attacked mostly the most corrupt people, as well as some loyal ones. He couldn't let the meteor continue; he had to stop the person who released it.

However, just as he rushed out, a red-haired woman blocked his way.

"I can't let you interrupt his spellcasting!"

"who?"

"Me? Just an ordinary ninja who accepted a mission. Nine-Tails!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Kushina brought her palms together, and the Nine-Tails inside her body made the exact same gesture.

Instantly, Kushina unleashed a powerful force, and the nine chakra tails behind her made Budo watch her warily. This woman was dangerous, even more dangerous than Esdeath.

The golden light continued its slaughter, and General Budo had no time to waste. He launched an attack, but what awaited him was the terrifying power of the Jinchūriki.

From Kushina's perspective, General Budo has no health bar and is not the target of this mission. If he tries to stop her, she can at most temporarily deprive him of his ability to stop her, but she will not actually harm him.

What constitutes a monster as identified by the system? This is a topic that internet cafe patrons have discussed.

Natsuki Subaru felt like an enemy because many of the people he attacked had health bars.

Fujimaru Kaori said that she would beat up anyone, regardless of their health bar, and skin them if possible, and burn the rest to ashes and bury them if not. She would take care of both killing and burying.

Zhongli believes the root of this judgment lies in human nature. Those who are not human but possess the power to harm others are monsters; those who possess a human form but lack humanity are also monsters. Killing that is not driven by survival needs, and that violates all ethical and moral principles concerning life, makes one a monster. For example, the killings resulting from wars between nations are not considered monstrous, but those who kill indiscriminately for fun are judged as monsters.

Even after twelve hours, Minato Namikaze wasn't confident he could kill all the monsters, but he could definitely take down those whose health bars had turned into boss-level monsters.

For example, the ministers in the minister's office and their subordinates.

The golden light seemed like the light of judgment; after tonight, legends of gods would appear in this country, but these would have nothing to do with Tatsumi anymore. Led by Yoshida Saki, he carried one after another, successfully escaping the imperial capital.

"Phew, we're safe now~"

Saki Yoshida wiped the sweat from her forehead. The game didn't have a stamina system for excavation, but real life did. Thanks to the professional training she underwent with the help of the SPW Foundation, and the constant replenishment of her stamina with high-energy food during excavation, she hadn't collapsed long ago.

"Yes, it's safe now, but..."

Tazmi

Heading towards the capital, the towering walls that once symbolized majesty in his eyes now felt like a cage, trapping everyone inside for those man-eating monsters to devour.

"What exactly is going on in this world...?"

Tatsumi felt his worldview collapsing. Although he had experienced some oppression coming from the countryside, he hadn't reached the point of cannibalism. But this capital city was practically a living hell.

Saki Yoshida sat to the side, recalling the historical assessments in the book. After thinking for a while, she replied, "Perhaps it was an inevitable result before the demise of the feudal empire?"

"what?"

Yoshida Saki replied somewhat sheepishly, "I don't really know much about this either; the teacher only mentioned it a bit in class. Oh! And something about productive forces and relations of production..."

Her grades were only average, and she didn't study history in depth; she only had a general impression of it.

However, she suddenly remembered that she could learn relevant knowledge in internet cafes.

"I don't understand these things, but if you play Red Alert, you can probably learn related knowledge. If productivity is developed, the lives of even the worst and poorest people should be guaranteed, right?"

Yoshida Saki recalled the conditions in various large countries around the world, whether it was the island nation where she lived, the continent opposite the island nation, or the European countries. The worst living conditions there were probably better than in this so-called empire.

In a society where animals can talk about rights, and in a society where humans are treated like animals, it's still possible to compare who is better and who is worse.

Tatsumi clenched his fists, feeling incredibly grateful that he had entered the internet cafe. Although it cost a lot of money every day, he had gained the opportunity to acquire power and knowledge.

"Thank you!"

"You're too kind. I used your guide, and it was really helpful."

The guide to Tatsumi clearly explains how to build a platform and how to fly a kite. By following the guide, she saved a lot of trial and error costs, and even managed to kill many bosses on her first encounter.

"This is all I can do..."

"What I'm telling you is what I can do."

Yoshida Saki didn't leave. Instead, she took a pickaxe and dug a deep pit around the area, leaving three main exits and six hidden exits. Feeling there was no danger, she chose to return.

TT

Saki Yoshida: "Just call me if there's anything I can do."

Okay, thank you~

Minato Namikaze: "Kushina and I have taken down the big bosses, so you can handle the smaller ones."

Minato Namikaze had deeper considerations; he could tell that Tatsumi was a person with a very strong sense of justice. If such a large city was so corrupt, he couldn't even imagine what other places were like.

The remaining amount is more than enough for Emperor Tazmi to build up his prestige. Once he has enough prestige, it would be a good thing for him to take over as the emperor of the country or become a minister to carry out reforms.

In the dimly lit basement, Tatsumi was still in a daze.

"Tatsumi... go do it."

Sayo's voice broke Tatsumi's silence in the dark room.

"Saya? How are you feeling?"

"How does it feel? Fantastic."

Saya sat up in the darkness and said energetically, "That bastard only has so much skill; he can't defeat me at all."

But then her tone changed: "Go ahead and do it. We'll be with Tatsumi. We have nothing to be afraid of anymore."

Having witnessed the empire's decay, Sayo had nothing left to fear, recalling the heartless merchants. If even merchants were like this, what would the empire be like? And such an empire was not worth striving for.
