A frenzy to find the mysterious LV.7 adventurer swept across Orario.
Various bounties have even appeared on the black market.
Correspondingly, Freya was in a terrible mood.
Chapter 117 The real trump card
The cool moonlight bathed the earth, and the tranquil forest echoed with the croaking of frogs and chirping of insects. Fireflies flitted about, creating a beautiful, harmonious scene. Roy leaned against a large tree, feeling his body about to fall apart as the effects of his LV.7 trial card wore off. He cursed under his breath, thinking how tough that pig (Ota) was, truly worthy of having grown up under the fists of Zeus and Hera's kin.
Just as Freya's Familia had guessed, he wasn't LV.8. Although his stats were higher, he was still at the same level. He clashed head-on with Ota, who was going all out, and he also suffered considerable damage.
Of course, it's not as serious as the other party's situation.
Of course, Freya's Familia couldn't find him. In the instant the battle ended, he had already escaped, taking advantage of the dust that blotted out the sky.
As long as he doesn't enter the dungeon, he can teleport to other worlds at any time; that's his true trump card.
Otherwise, trying to deal with Orario's strongest Familia with just a LV.7 trial card would be suicide!
As the invincible power of LV.7 gradually faded, an endless sense of emptiness followed. Falling from the peak of the clouds to the bottom of the valley, Roy clicked his tongue, feeling little. The trial card was just a trial card, not his own power. Being too attached to it would only lead to a lower level of weakness.
Using this trial card, he slapped Freya's Familia hard, vented his anger, and glimpsed Orario's "strongest" peak—that was enough. One day, he will grow to that level! He will defeat "Warrior" Otto in a fair and square fashion!
Name: Inuyasha
Level: LV. 2~LV. 6
Introduction: Five hundred years ago, during the Warring States period in the island nation, demons, monsters, and evil spirits lurked everywhere.
Main task: Hunt down the centipede witch, reward 50 attribute points.
Bonus mission: Hunt down Naraku and his clones. Reward...
Roy opened the instance panel. Hunting the Centipede Demoness was relatively easy. He had chosen this instance world before fighting Freya's Familia.
There are still many things to do in Orario, and Freya, that crazy woman, won't let it go easily.
He needed to finish his main task quickly and return to Orario. The Centipede Witch wasn't that powerful; the exorcists and mages of this world could easily kill her. "Grandma Maple, I really saw a boy here; he was lying under the big tree."
"Besides monsters, who would be in the forest at night?"
Several figures emerged from the bushes and approached Roy. They were several farmers and an old woman dressed as a witch, with an eyepatch over her right eye. When they saw Roy under the tree, the group froze, their faces showing wariness.
Grandma Feng cautiously approached, took out a bag, and sprinkled a handful of coarse salt on Roy. Seeing no reaction, she said, "He's human. Don't worry, Roy will brush the salt off. This is an ancient method used in Japan to identify monsters."
What are you doing in a place like this?
"Fighting with a wild boar..."
Grandma Feng and Roy exchanged questions and answers.
Grandma Feng looked at Roy with a meaningful gaze, and finally sighed, "If you don't have a place to stay, you can stay here temporarily." "Thank you, then I won't be polite."
Roy chuckled, explaining that he'd been bumped by that dead pig (Ota), leaving him sore all over and dizzy; it would take him at least a day or two to recover. Although he had food and a tent in his spatial ring, he had no intention of camping out in the forest.
Especially since this world is full of all sorts of monsters...
Roy followed the group back to the village and stayed in Granny Maple's simple wooden house.
"Drink up, we don't have much else in this small place." Granny Feng poured Roy a bowl of hot soup.
Roy took the hot soup, glanced down, and saw a few pieces of carrot at the bottom and some unfamiliar wild vegetables floating on the surface. He took a small sip. It tasted only slightly salty.
For Roy, the taste was a bit bland. Apart from a period when he first arrived in Orario and ate hard bread, he had been eating plenty of meat and fish ever since. His palate had become quite discerning.
Roy didn't say anything, after all, it was a kind gesture, and drank the warm soup in one gulp.
“In this chaotic era, I don’t want to ask too much about your origins.” Granny Feng pushed the fire with a wooden stick. On the way back to the village, she had already noticed that the boy’s words and actions were completely different from those of a countryman, and he must be from the capital.
In such a small place, even a rat would starve to death if it came, so there's nothing there to attract them.
"Thank you!" Roy said, expressing his gratitude. Grandma Feng was a truly kind person.
After resting at Granny Feng's place for a night, Roy cast several Noah's Healing spells on himself, recovering to about 70-80%. This magic takes effect slowly, but it's very effective.
Releasing it in the forest will also grant a boost.
Praise to Miss Ryu!
The next day.
Roy was about to go out to look for the centipede when he suddenly saw the villagers gathered in one place.
When he crawled over and took a look, it was exactly as he expected.
A girl dressed in a sailor uniform is tied to the ground; her attire and appearance are completely different from those of this ancient world.
She is Kagome Higurashi, the reincarnation of the priestess Kikyo. Because of the Shikon Jewel within her, she traveled from the Well of Bones to the Sengoku period five hundred years ago. At this moment, she is captured by the villagers and tied to the ground.
Roy stepped forward and smiled, "You're from the modern world, right... It might sound strange, but this is five hundred years in the past of your world. You traveled through the well in the shrine."
Kagome's eyes widened instantly as she understood the situation. She looked at Roy and asked, "Are you one of them too?"
When fellow villagers meet, their eyes well up with tears!
But Roy wasn't from her hometown. He turned to Granny Feng, "Granny Feng, look closely, doesn't her face resemble someone?" Hearing this, Granny Feng leaned closer, her face showing surprise. She grabbed Kagome's cheek and examined her closely, "Make your expression more intelligent." Kagome couldn't help but roll her eyes; she was already very intelligent!
"Could it be that……"
Kagome's increasingly familiar face made Granny Kaede look at Roy in disbelief.
Roy smiled and said, "That's right, just as you thought. She is the reincarnation of the priestess Kikyo."
Grandma Feng's eyes welled up with tears.
The misunderstanding was finally cleared up, the villagers dispersed, and Roy and Kagome went to Grandma Kaede's house.
"Thanks to you, otherwise I don't know how long I would have been tied up by them," Kagome said gratefully, rubbing her sore wrists and ankles. After Roy's explanation, she finally understood what kind of era she had come to.
There was no law, and everything was chaotic and disorderly.
Kagome broke out in a cold sweat. Being kidnapped and brutally murdered by bandits was commonplace, and the rampant presence of demons was simply unimaginable. "I'm also temporarily staying here, but I arrived a day earlier than you," Roy said with a smile. His gaze subtly swept over Kagome's side, where he could faintly sense a fluctuation of energy.
That is the Shikon Jewel!
Chapter 118 Legendary Equipment: The Shikon Jewel
The Shikon Jewel!
The miraculous objects born in this world have many wonderful uses, such as enhancing demonic power, and can even resurrect the dead and reverse the balance of Yin and Yang! Roy's arrival in this world was very opportune.
This miraculous artifact now resides within the body of a weak, pitiful, and helpless junior high school girl.
Of course, Roy wouldn't just grab it directly.
He wasn't some great villain, but he wouldn't offer to help the other party either.
"Why did I come into this world? Is it because I am the reincarnation of Kikyo?" Kagome looked at Roy. Compared to those ancient people she had never met, she clearly trusted and felt closer to this "fellow countryman".
Roy looked at Kagome's side, "No, because you have the Shikon Jewel on you!"
"What! The Shikon Jewel!"
Granny Feng, on her deathbed, suddenly sat up with a serious expression, startling Kagome.
With Granny Kaede's explanation, Kagome roughly understood what the Shikon Jewel was, how it attracted demons, and how it was the jewel previously kept by the priestess Kikyo...
And this thing is inside her body.
Granny Kaede's gaze lingered between Roy and Kagome, increasingly confused about the current situation.
As night fell, and panicked screams echoed through the village, Roy knew the centipede witch had arrived!
Roy and Kagome stepped out of the room, and what came into view was a monster thirty or forty meters long, with a lower body like a centipede and a human head. "It's that monster!"
Kagome's expression changed; she had been dragged into the well by this monster and transported to this world.
"put!"
The farmers who were protecting the village drew their bows and shot more than a dozen arrows at the centipede witch.
But even Roy shook his head at that power.
The centipede demon spun like a top, deflecting all the arrows aimed at her, and chuckled, "Mere humans, laughable!"
Then, the centipede's tail swept across, about to smash several fragile wooden houses to pieces.
Roy frowned. He couldn't just stand by and watch the farmer be killed, even though he had been so grateful for the meal.
Pi!
Golden lightning surged from Roy's palm, transforming into a long spear of lightning that landed in his hand. With a swift step, he exerted his strength and hurled the spear. The spear of lightning, accompanied by a whooshing sound, struck like a bolt of lightning, piercing through the centipede demon's body. The terrifying force pushed her massive form away, saving the surrounding wooden houses from destruction.
Fine electric currents spread throughout the centipede demon's body, crackling and hissing, causing her to scream in pain.
Upon suddenly witnessing such ruthless work, Kagome's eyes widened. Was her "fellow villager" really this fierce?
Roy said, "It's after the Shikon Jewel on you, what should we do?"
Kagome asked expectantly, her eyes sparkling, "Can you defeat this monster?"
Roy mumbled, "It's about 50/50."
Kagome was so anxious that she kept stamping her feet.
“Give me the Shikon Jewel, and perhaps I can defeat it!” Roy said meaningfully.
Upon hearing this, Kagome carefully examined Roy. She wasn't stupid; Granny Kaede had told her that the Shikon Jewel would attract all sorts of demons and monsters vying for it... Was this "fellow villager" one of them?
"Cough cough!"
Roy coughed lightly, a smile playing on his lips, making no attempt to hide his intentions. However, he at least possessed a basic human decency and wouldn't resort to robbery. This was a transaction.
Roy will protect the village, but not her, and the Centipede Witch is after her.
So her only remaining choice is...
Kagome touched her abdomen, glanced at the ferocious centipede demon woman, gritted her teeth, and said, "Take it, I don't know what it's for anyway!"
"Smart choice!"
Golden lightning surged from Roy's palm, transforming into a sharp scalpel, the blade approaching his opponent.
Kagome looked on in alarm. Had the wound been disinfected? In this era, infected wounds were a real problem.
Roy made a small incision with his scalpel, revealing a glimmer of light. With a gentle flick, a bright purple bead stained with blood flew out. Kagome gasped; ouch!
"Noah heals!"
Roy didn't immediately pick up the Shikon Jewel; that thing wasn't enough to make him lose his composure. When he finished chanting, a vibrant emerald light emanated from his palm and landed on Kagome's wound.
The cut healed quickly.
Kagome stared in disbelief at Roy's actions—summoning lightning and healing his wounds—finally realizing that this "fellow countryman" was no ordinary person! After finishing, Roy stepped forward and picked up the Shikon Jewel, about the size of an adult's thumb, shimmering with an eerie light and energy fluctuations. As soon as the Shikon Jewel landed in Roy's hand, the system automatically analyzed it, and an introduction panel popped up.
Name: Shikon Jewel
Quality: Legend
Description: A precious gem formed from the fusion of the souls of the shrine maiden Midori and countless yokai, possessing powerful spiritual energy.
Special Effects: When attached to the body or weapon, it greatly enhances strength and vitality, granting a monstrous, immortal body with infinite regeneration! Special Effects: Placing the jewel or its fragment on a corpse or intact ashes of the deceased can grant new life, but the life is sustained only by the jewel. Special Effects: It utilizes the law of causality to fulfill wishes, but these wishes can be distorted by evil will. Once a wish is made, the soul is bound by the jewel; only a subsequent wish made by the correct one can free the soul.
Note: Negative emotions can contaminate precious jade, thereby affecting and manipulating the user's mind.
Upon seeing the information about the Shikon Jewel, Roy smiled slightly. Getting a legendary item for free was much easier than acquiring the Elven Holy Sword. Although the Shikon Jewel had many side effects, powerful strength always comes with risks…
"The Jade of Four Souls!"
The centipede demon, sensing the aura emanating from the Shikon Jewel, charged forward like a madwoman. For demons, the Shikon Jewel held an unparalleled allure. Having obtained the Shikon Jewel, Roy no longer bothered to pretend.
The centipede witch, whose ability value is around LV.2, is nothing compared to him!
Roy unleashed a surge of golden lightning from his palm, transforming it into a massive ball of lightning that hurtled toward the centipede demon. The moment it made contact, the demon's body melted and vanished into nothingness under the extreme heat.
With a loud "boom," the lightning ball blasted a crater with a radius of five meters, causing the ground to tremble.
Kagome was stunned. "This is what you meant by a 50/50 chance?" she thought. She regretted not downloading the anti-fraud PPP app...
[The Centipede Demoness has been successfully hunted. Congratulations on gaining 50 attribute points. The main mission is complete. Please return within 24 hours...] Roy saw the panel that popped up and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Roy, can you give me back the Shikon Jewel?" Kagome smiled slightly; she needed the Shikon Jewel to return to the modern world. "Don't even think about it. This is our deal." Roy shook his head and smiled. He never spit out a piece of meat that's already in his mouth.
