Chapter 193 All Evil Returns to Darkness
Kabukicho.
Inside a high-end tavern where only martial artists who have completed their class change are allowed to enter for entertainment.
The lights were dazzling, and the atmosphere was extravagant.
Sexy women dressed in revealing outfits walked back and forth, holding wine glasses.
The hunters sat in their seats, indulging in pleasure.
"Delicious, delicious! The sushi today is amazing!"
"Hey, Sato, what's wrong? You look so listless."
Sato Takeru sat among his companions, holding a wine glass, looking around warily, showing no interest in seeking pleasure.
"My next opponent has been announced. It's a guy named Shirakawa. He's probably watching me from somewhere right now. I don't have any time to have fun."
"Don't worry, this is our territory." A fat man put his arm around his shoulder.
"The owner of this shop is a sixth-level expert; no one dares to lay a hand on you here."
"Yeah, it's rare for us to win such a great victory in the Abyss, so let's have some fun today." The man with the mohawk, who was holding two beautiful women, grinned wickedly. "We've got some good stuff tonight."
"Bring them up."
"Yes, sir," the woman standing beside him said, bowing her head.
Soon, several women, who were mind-controlled, looked dazed, and wore collars around their necks, stood in front of a group of hunters.
"This is today's new stock."
Takeru Satoh's eyes widened when he saw one of the women.
"You are... Kamiyagi-kun?!"
"How about it, Sato? Pretty good selection today, huh? You're our team's rising star, we'll help you no matter what. You can choose first today," the rooster-haired man said with a sly grin.
"Is it... okay?"
Takeru Satoh's Adam's apple bobbed.
Shangliu Heixue.
This was the class beauty he had a crush on in high school, a flower that was unattainable to him back then.
My dream goddess from the past.
Now they stand before him like merchandise, open to being picked over...
Takeru Satoh raised his finger and pointed at her.
"I choose... her."
"Choosing the innocent type? He's still a kid after all," the rooster-haired guy laughed.
Kamiya Kuroyuki approached Sato Takeru and spoke as if it were a machine.
"Sato...sir, thank you for choosing me. Please feel free to give me your orders."
This moment.
Takeru Satoh completely forgot about the Grand Tournament and his enemies.
A twisted, morbid smile appeared on his face, and his eyes gradually went mad.
"marvelous!"
"Becoming a martial artist is truly amazing!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
.....................
In the alley outside the tavern.
Spatial fluctuations.
A large blue fish appeared, its mouth wide open.
Jiang Yuan emerged from the vortex-shaped portal.
This scene was witnessed by a drunken martial artist who happened to be passing by.
"Emptiness, spatial talent?!"
He stared wide-eyed and rubbed his eyes hard.
"Am I seeing things?!"
Jiang Yuan glanced at him, and the blue creature behind him rapidly shrank to the size of a palm, happily wagging its tail and swimming around him, bringing with it streaks of dreamy blue light.
This made the already handsome silver-haired boy appear even more mysterious and unfathomable.
"Hey, buddy..."
The drunken martial artist took a step toward Jiang Yuan and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.
The next moment,
His outstretched arm was slashed by a black light and separated instantly, with blood spurting out!
"Huh? What's this... blood? Whose...?"
I was stunned for a full second.
The drunken martial artist only reacted to the excruciating pain, staring at his bleeding severed arm and letting out a terrified scream.
"This is my blood! My King's Hand!!"
"Dare to offend your master, you die!"
The shadows converged, forming a night draped in cloaks.
Her fair and pretty face was filled with icy coldness, and she gripped a black and red blade in her backhand, her scarlet eyes burning with murderous intent.
"You little brat!!"
Driven mad by excruciating pain, the drunken warrior pulled out a giant axe with his remaining hand.
"I'll kill you!!!"
Ye's eyes narrowed.
Before she could do anything...
The blood splattered on the ground and in the air suddenly changed, suspending and writhing as if alive, turning into sharp spikes aimed at him...
"?"
The moment the drunken martial artist looked down.
Blood thorns shot out!
"Pfft!"
The drunken martial artist's eye was pierced, and a bloody spike emerged from the back of his head.
Dead beyond dead!
"Let's go."
Jiang Yuan said.
Night turned her head and only saw his back.
The girl nodded obediently, sheathed her blade, and, with her snow-white legs beneath her cloak, trotted to catch up.
Two figures, one tall and one short, entered the tavern one after the other.
A short while later...
"Who are you?!"
"What do you want to do? Stop! Stop!"
"Ah, ah—!!"
A piercing scream suddenly erupted from the noisy tavern.
The screams could be heard from both men and women.
But soon all of that turned into desperate wails.
Finally, silence returned.
"Welcome to visit again, sir."
Accompanied by mechanical sounds.
The door opened.
Two figures, one tall and one short, emerged from within.
Jiang Yuan appeared calm and composed.
At night, he radiated a glow, his expression invigorated, and wisps of black energy emanated from his body, making his aura more than twice as strong.
"How does it feel to absorb the blood of darkness?" Jiang Yuan asked with a smile.
"Very...good, Night feels an unprecedented power."
"great."
Jiang Yuan smiled and ruffled her hair.
The two figures gradually moved away from each other.
As for this upscale martial arts tavern, which had bred countless sins and filth, it was completely swallowed up by darkness!
This massacre involving hundreds of people will surely be reported tomorrow, but no one has been able to find the killer.
There was not a single clue in the darkness.
Only one newcomer in the Grand Tournament quietly went from one star to two stars.
And that's how far it has been since he participated in the Grand Prix.
Only nine hours had passed.
……
"It's so fast, so incredibly fast..."
Shining Sword Rider - Kujou Ruri looked at the changing Grand Rank rankings in her kendo dojo, her gaze fixed on the name of "Tyrant", her small face showing a solemn expression.
"Shirakawa... Gen!"
"That guy is definitely no ordinary person!"
"He probably has the strength to rival the top ten, no, the top five geniuses."
What Kujo Ruri didn't understand was,
"Why have I never heard of such a top-tier genius before? Could he be from some hidden force...?"
"Besides the three families, the Pleasure Palace, and the Shishiin Temple behind me, what other hidden forces are stirring up trouble?"
…………
The next morning.
Sunlight streamed into the second floor of the Ueno house.
Jiang Yuan slept on the soft cotton quilt spread on the tatami mat.
Night lay on my body, fast asleep.
[Ding! You have been matched with your next opponent—Lei Pao, Yanagi Miyamizu. If you win, you will receive your third star.]
Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
