Ryunosuke Akutagawa walked alone on the road, flipping through the three thin to-do lists.

After such a long time of not being lively, the tail following him has gone less and less, and only a few sporadic abrupt people remain; Soon, those people with ulterior motives disappeared, and they didn't know where to hide to continue to keep an eye on him.

[The monster] didn't care, and Akutagawa Ryunosuke ignored it directly, concentrating on identifying the scribbled words on the paper.

He really only stared at the three pieces of paper with the most payable numbers just now, and didn't care much about the content of the quest - however, in this kind of place, the higher the level of the quest, the more similar the content of the quest.

Either as someone's bodyguard, or as a combat force for a certain side.

Quests like those of the next tier are much less rewarding.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa estimated the distance and decided to go to the nearest target location to meet with his employer first. If you move quickly, you should be able to come back before dark.

This is the second-most paid mission, and it basically says that you want to take back a stronghold somewhere. It's a type of mission that is simple and crude, but requires a lot of force and brains - a hotly contested stronghold like this is often garrisoned by many gang members.

However, if the force can be high to a certain level, then there is no problem with not needing a brain.

For Akutagawa Ryunosuke, he would not have been able to accomplish this kind of task in the past. His mental power to drive the blade is limited, and he can't attack too many enemies at once; In addition, for him, who can only manipulate his clothes to carry out extended attacks, the main body that can be damaged with any weapon is particularly vulnerable.

- And the most important thing in Bowl Street is a variety of weapons and 10,000 ways to take people's lives.

As a result, most of the time, Akutagawa Ryunosuke can only pursue a one-hit kill when facing a threat, taking advantage of the enemy's contempt for his young and thin skinny and unprepared for the attack of the blade.

Although he could barely guarantee that he would survive like a wild dog in the Bowl Street, he could not do much more.

But now with Akutagawa Ryunosuke, it's a [monster] whose combat power is bottomless.

[It] enjoys the most primitive violence of devastation, almost ghostly dominates everything [it] desires, and uses bitter cries for mercy and wails as food for pleasure.

So, whether the enemy is the first to attack him, or whether he takes the initiative to step into danger, this is a welcome development for [the monster].

Ryunosuke Akutagawa's mind is calm to the extreme.

He had never experienced any emotion and had only been affected by [monster] a few times, but when he had the possibility of planning for the future, he was very indifferent to eliminate his own safety first.

All you need is silver to live a normal life.

In order to make this wish, which seems trivial to outsiders, he must save a lot of money.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa, who stopped walking, handed the piece of paper with the task written on it to the two guards standing in front of the door, "I took it." —he said succinctly.

"You're taking this task? Are you kidding? Just a scrawny little ghost, don't get in the way here, get out of the way. ”

The young man watching the gate was a yellow-haired man whose hair was obviously not dyed very successfully. He waved his hand at Ryunosuke Akutagawa rather impatiently, like to drive away an annoying mouse or fly.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa wasn't provoked or offended—after all, he'd been through this experience countless times in the past four years.

He just tilted his head and thought about what he could do to get the other party to recognize him...... When it was [Monster's] combat ability, to be exact, another guard spoke.

"Wait a minute......"

His voice trembled slightly, "About ten years old, wearing a scarf, black hair, but the ends of the sideburns are white...... I've heard of this guy. ”

Huang Mao turned his head, "...... Ha? ”

"It's what I mentioned to you last time, the culprit of the horrific purge of the gang in the next district from bottom to top," the other party whispered in Huang Mao's ear, "Don't provoke him, otherwise it's not uncommon for the bones of the whole body to be broken......"

Huang Mao: "......"

Huang Mao squeezed out the accusation in an angry voice: "...... Didn't you say this kind of thing earlier!? ”

"It's your own mouth that ...... fast"

“……”

In short, after Huang Mao turned his head again, he first laughed awkwardly at Akutagawa Ryunosuke, and his tone instantly softened, "Okay, you wait here, I'll go in and talk to the boss." ”

Strength, here is synonymous with respect.

When Huang Mao came out again and brought Akutagawa Ryunosuke into the house, he did meet the employer of the mission—not the boss of the area, but also a high-level person.

He was very strong-looking, with a sky-high moxican hair, and his eyes were sharp and steady, and at a glance he understood that he was not just a brainless martial artist who fought with his fists.

"I've heard of you." Without planning to exchange names, Boss Mohican said to Akutagawa Ryunosuke, "You kid really made quite a stir, and now the five divisions are said to be leaderless dragons, and no gang even dares to take over that territory." ”

"Let's just ask," his gaze was fixed on the little ghost in front of him, and he didn't despise him because of the other party's age, "You were really the only one who did it?" ”

"......" Ryunosuke Akutagawa lowered his chin slightly and nodded his head.

"Hmph...... It's incredible," Boss Mohican's eyes narrowed slightly, "don't mind if I test it?" Say it up front, it's not for you either, no matter who comes. Even the star imp who can manipulate gravity has gone through the process of examining strength. ”

After a brief silence, Ryunosuke Akutagawa spoke slowly, his voice soft and low.

"I don't guarantee..."

"Huh?" Although the boss of Mohican was listening to Akutagawa Ryunosuke, he had no intention of ending the attack on him for any reason.

It's been more than half a month since this mission was released, and the long-delayed capture of the strongholds is starting to make the boss's mood extremely bad; However, the enemy's newly recruited Adepts are very powerful, and if they were to fight with ordinary lives, even if they won, their subordinates would suffer heavy losses.

If he hadn't been able to find someone who could compete with the other party after so long, he would have to resort to this last resort.

He lowered his upper body slightly, the muscles in his arms bulging with force, and the bulging green tendons snaked along the veins—a moment before he was about to launch a fierce attack, the boss of Mohican suddenly noticed.

Faced with the prelude to the imminent attack, the little ghost in front of him didn't even have emotions such as [fear] or [nervous], and just continued to finish the sentence indifferently.

“… You can survive. ”

What......? As soon as this thought came to his mind, an irresistible force appeared above him. Just like slapping a basketball to the ground while dribbling, the force that controls the law cannot be pressed on his head, and there is no room for any resistance.

- Bang!

The forehead of the boss of Mohican came into close contact with the ground.

"There is a ......" Huang Mao, who was watching from the sidelines, finally remembered another terrifying rumor that had been on the dust recently, and couldn't help but whisper, "The ability to force the enemy to kowtow to him ......"

Boss Mohican who threw himself at Ryunosuke Akutagawa on the ground: ...... I said it earlier if I had this ability, how did I know it was the same person...!
