Anime: Fight Sukuna at the beginning?.

Chapter 285 This is the victory I wish for

[This woman is a bit strange, as she's rarely seen. Is it because she already knows my nickname, "Death in the Mist"?]

[Or perhaps, she also received the Lord God's prompting like me.]

This was Fang Yi's first reaction after seeing the "disheveled" female general excitedly opening the bedroom door.

The other person's expression was different from the usual coldness, and he rarely released any aggressive and oppressive aura.

He could also clearly see the emotion of anticipation on the female general's face.

He glanced across the female general's face, which was filled with surprise, and then down her elegant and smooth neck, which made one want to take a bite.

Then I saw a female general in another limited edition costume.

The female general now was not wearing the military uniform that Fang Yi was accustomed to, nor was she wearing a military cap or boots.

The most covering piece of clothing on her body was a somewhat see-through shirt.

Even a few buttons of this shirt were buttoned incorrectly, and it was a little tight because of the stiffness and fullness of certain parts.

It then exudes a wonderful temptation.

Looking down, one can see strong and plump thighs, and toes painted with dark red nail polish that are slightly curled back.

While the female general was pulling him into the bedroom.

Fang Yi looked at the female general from head to toe and came to a conclusion based on her dress.

This woman was very friendly and didn't seem to care about my 'true identity'.

[Perhaps, I need to reveal to her first that she already knows the identity of the [Death God in the Mist] to show my sincerity.]

[After exchanging the mission objectives with her, and confirming that there is no conflict in the objectives, we can discuss cooperation.]

After making up his mind, he cleared his throat shortly after getting into the female general's bed.

After seeing the female general turn her head and make sure that she had attracted the other party's attention.

He was ready to have a showdown with the female general.

Unexpectedly, the female general on the other side also cleared her throat, and obviously had something to say to him.

His mind started working rapidly.

[Her friendly attitude clearly indicates a desire for cooperation, so is she planning to reveal my identity?]

[No, I have to reveal my identity as the [Death God in the Mist] first so I can seize the initiative!]
-
The female general sitting on the bed thought about it and felt secretly happy when she saw the man following her closely and looking her up and down from head to toe.

[Sure enough, I still have some attraction to him. ]

[Look, this man dragged his slightly tired body to keep the appointment.]

After hearing the man clear his throat and realizing that he had something to say to her, the female general decided to take the initiative.

[No! I must first show that I am a reincarnation like him and express my sincerity. Only then can we have a basis for cooperation.]

The next second, Fang Yi and Esdeath said something in unison that surprised the other.

"Before we can cooperate further, I must reveal my identity to you. I am the Death God in the Mist, and I need to defeat a powerful enemy."

"If we want to deepen our cooperation, I have to reveal my true identity. I am a [Reincarnator] like you, and I need to be in power in the empire."

As soon as the two finished speaking, the bedroom fell into a strange silence.

Only the two of them were left sitting on the bed, looking at each other.

The thoughts in the two people's minds have never been so consistent at this moment.

"Ah, you're actually like this? You even have such a goal?"
-
Fang Yi, who reacted quickly, broke the silence first and took the initiative to speak while the female general was surprised.

While using [Blood Demon Art: Frozen Cloud] to create a little mist to prove his identity, he continued to show his cards.

"This mist is proof that I am the target that the Hunters were trying to eliminate when they were first established—the Death God in the Mist.

“Of course he is also a [Reincarnator].

"The situation in the empire has suddenly changed. My enemies may be about to take action early. I have also glimpsed the Minister's conspiracy, so I need your help.

"By the way, I hope to defeat you at the [Martial Arts Tournament] if you don't hold back. Do our current mission objectives conflict?"

After hearing the man's revealing words, the female general's face was instantly filled with surprise, and she was unable to react for a moment.

Only after the female general came to her senses did she touch the man's chest and ask stutteringly.

"You, [Death in the Mist]?
"You have enemies? How can I help?"

After seeing the man nod, the female general turned her attention to Fang Yi's last words.

"You want to defeat me at my full strength?
"Of course there's no conflict, but I don't want to fight you. Besides, didn't we agree to just go through the motions?

"Is this a space mission?"

*
Having said that, the female general glanced at the [Punishment Mission: Restore Reputation I] on her dashboard, which had been changed and was about to be submitted to receive the reward.

Because Fang Yi and two members of the "Hunter" fought against the "Death God in the Mist", which led to a confrontation between himself and Bud, and then Fang Yi proposed a bet to complete the feat of destroying the thunder with one sword.

She also took advantage of the man's fame and returned to the capital's attention.

With the help of Fang Yi's "traffic" of this "popular star", the reputation value required for her mission is also growing rapidly and is approaching the completion line of the mission.

You will be able to regain the [Cold Touch] trait brought by the [Imperial Tool] immediately.

At this moment, the female general who had reaped the benefits from following the man started to have some ideas.

What's the definition of full strength? I think I can cheat.

【As a companion, you can't hold him back! 】

[He wants to defeat me and complete the mission, which is naturally based on my current strength. If I submit the mission, it will cause his mission to fail!]

[I simply delayed submitting the task and not claiming the reward, thus preventing my own strength from improving and wasting his effort.]

The female general's thought of "It's too tiring for him to move, I might as well do it myself" was dispelled by Fang Yi's next words before she could utter it.

"It takes time to get familiar with your strength. The next battle may be difficult. I need your help. In return, I will also help you advance the mission.

"Therefore, you don't need to deliberately delay your strength improvement for me, affecting your mission progress and damaging your reputation. Just perform normally.

"I will defeat you fairly and truly become the [Wall of the Empire] recognized by everyone through this [Martial Arts Tournament]. This will achieve my goal and also help you in your mission.

"This is the victory I was hoping for."

The [drug refining] of the [Super Strengthening Drug] has been completed. Currently, there are not many places that can improve strength, only the [Flag of Sincerity].

[The [Flag of Sincerity] still needs a little [Great Deed] before it can be used. I need to complete a great feat.]*
The female general heard Fang Yi's "upright" words and saw the man staring at her seriously, but she had the wrong idea.

[Are you not satisfied with your current status and want to show off your strength and charm in front of me in order to conquer me? ]

[Mm, what a delicious and wonderful man. I approve of his ambition and actions.]

【If you can really defeat me, then it is only natural that I should be conquered. 】

Fang Yi looked at the pensive female general and the letter at hand, and began to explain the "spoilers" from two dimensions that had awakened him a few minutes ago.

"[Minister] and Bud should have also sent you a letter about the changes in the empire's situation.

"Without informing the imperial capital, the revolutionary army brazenly seized several cities in the south and reached an agreement with the western ethnic groups.

"He led countless troops towards the imperial capital, and his journey was smooth and unimpeded.

"Everyone's mission progress will be accelerated, and the mission is almost halfway through. You and I don't have much time left to complete the mission, so I came up with this for you."

The female general's answer was that she wanted to suffocate Fang Yi with her breasts.

The female general turned the man's body over and took his visibly tired face into her broad chest.

Then he interrupted the man's chatter with kind words.

"There's no rush to explain the plan. After all, the night is still long, isn't it?
"Hold me first to recover from your physical fatigue.

"You've been running around all day, you should take a rest, we'll talk later.

"After all, I'm really looking forward to your performance at the [Martial Arts Tournament] and after your battle with me. You need to be well-rested and strong enough to satisfy me!"

Feeling the female general patting his back as if to comfort a child, Fang Yi gave up the idea of ​​saying that he was 'tired' because he had fed two energy-absorbing female goblins.

[I feel like she has some misunderstanding, and if I tell her, it will lead to some bad consequences.]

【Well, let’s take a break. 】

Fang Yi felt at ease holding the female general and resting for a while before he began to explain his plan.

The two of them slept for a while in tacit understanding, waiting for the opening of the [Martial Arts Tournament].
-
At noon, the [Martial Arts Fighting Conference] took place.

Under the consensus reached between the [Minister] and Bud to control the spread of information, most nobles were unaware that the imperial capital was about to become a battlefield.

On the contrary, under the deliberate propaganda of the [Minister], this conference was regarded as a "monkey show" with higher standards and more expensive tickets involving the [Imperial Tool User].

Therefore, before the [Conference] officially opened, thousands of nobles and merchants with some wealth poured into this magnificent arena.

This originally empty and lonely place became lively.

And when Bud, wearing armor, stood in the center of the venue that looked like the ancient Roman Colosseum, he announced the start of the [Martial Arts Competition] with passionate words.

The noise level in the field was pushed to a whole new level.

"Today, I specially took an hour to use the Imperial Gear to speed up the tournament process, eliminating the less powerful contestants first, leaving only a few contestants.

"Of course, we won't just turn this [Martial Arts Tournament] into a bloody and boring fight, like fighting beasts to determine the strongest."

Bud pointed at the Imperial Weapon Users and Reincarnators who were making their grand entrances. After a pause, he began to give these players some encouragement.
"I have selected the elite of the Imperial Army, gathered them here, and allowed them to participate in this significant and lucrative [Martial Arts Tournament].

"It is to show the people of the Empire the image of our Imperial Army, and to demonstrate the fearless will and unyielding faith of our Imperial soldiers!

"Winning is certainly important, but I hope even more that you can demonstrate your martial arts spirit and military demeanor to the tens of thousands of spectators present here!
"If you can demonstrate these two qualities, even if you are defeated in battle, I will give you a valuable reward!"

*
As Bud spoke, his left hand formed into a knife shape. In front of everyone's surprised gaze, he cut off his left hand and then stomped on it to pieces.

Then, he poured the [Alchemical Potion] on the minister in front of his surprised eyes, demonstrated the [Alchemical Potion]'s effect of regenerating severed limbs to everyone, and then continued speaking.

"Don't worry, please give your all in the battle.

"I will take action and use the [Alchemical Potion] provided by the [Minister] to ensure your safety and maintain your combat effectiveness!
"The final winner will be able to take away ten bottles of these [potions], or choose an existing [Imperial Gear] in the empire!"

After seeing some [Imperial Equipment Users] express dissatisfaction, Bud skillfully wrote a blank check, which aroused the interest of all the participants present.

"Of course, if you want to create a suitable [Imperial Gear] and strengthen your own [Imperial Gear], it is not impossible.

“That requires exceptional performance!
"The first battle, I declare, is between the Imperial Navy, Will, and the Imperial Incinerator, Kohler!

"Now, the meeting begins!"

As Bud's bell-like declaration resounded throughout the venue, three deafening salutes rang out around the arena, officially announcing the opening of the conference.

As the fireworks shot up into the sky, blooming brilliantly in the clear sky, they also aroused even more enthusiastic cheers from the audience.

After Bud walked out of the venue surrounded by water along a passage, he signaled the players on both sides of the venue that they could start.

Everyone's emotions had been pushed to the highest point, and they all looked at the two people who entered the venue.

A man with a dark body and a strong physique, holding a flamethrower-shaped [Imperial Tool] in his left hand and a dagger in his right hand.

It was Kohler who had recovered.

One person was already fully armored and activated a new [Imperial Tool] [Ashura Incarnation: Noble Chariot].

It was after Mahan completed the repair and optimization of the [Imperial Tool] that Will became full of confidence.

As the referee began to make gestures and read out the countdown for the fight to begin.

Kohler's whole body suddenly tensed up, his eyes fixed on Will, trying to catch his opponent's movements.

Will on the other side of the field did not look at his opponent, but instead fixed his gaze on Fang Yi who was resting with his eyes closed in the preparation area.

[According to the grouping, after I win, my next opponent will be him, that [Minister's] lackey!]

[With the power boost from this new [Imperial Gear], I'm not completely powerless against him. I'm going to teach him a lesson!]

This country boy, who smelled of fish and was not very well-informed, obviously didn't know about Fang Yi's heroic feat of cutting off thunder with one sword last night.

After some thought, Will turned his attention to the battle with Kohler.

[According to Big Brother Yuan Qi, this Kohler's [Imperial Gear] can breathe fire.]

[In order to conserve energy, we need to deal with this enemy quickly.]

Will clenched his fists and activated the newly added function of the [Imperial Tool].

　Because of the previous reasons, after many attempts to delete and revise this chapter, in order to publish it, I had to change and delete some of the plot of the female general.

　　Therefore, the battles with Riva and Esdeath need to be redesigned, and the changes are not yet complete.

　　Let’s split this up first.
