I'm a demon in Tokyo!

Chapter 22 Sorry, Foreman, please die for my new weapon!

“It wasn’t the factory.”

Uesugi Tetsu looked at the stunned foreman and heard him subconsciously ask, "Mr. Prajna, do you know the inside story?"

"of course."

Uesugi Che nodded, stretched out his five fingers, and the bloodstained hatchet fell into his hand with a snap.

"Because, I did it."

In the silence filled only by the rumbling of the factory, Uesugi Tetsu waited for two seconds, but did not see the expected emotion in the foreman's eyes.

The foreman just looked at him calmly, with a hint of realization in his eyes: "So it's you..."

Uesugi Tetsu tilted his head: "Isn't that a strange reason?"

In fact, if the foreman could move away with the workshop, Uesugi Che would not necessarily have to kill him. After all, the blacksmith just wanted the noisy workshop to disappear.

When facing a demon that rarely has personal ambitions, Uesugi Che doesn't mind losing dozens or hundreds of soul ashes.

But after communicating with the foreman, Uesugi Tetsu realized that the conflict between them could not be resolved.

——Sorry, Foreman-san, please die for my new weapon!

The foreman sighed, took off his hard hat, and revealed a fierce and bloodthirsty expression that hadn't been seen for a long time: "The reason is not important anymore."

Xiao Prajna nodded in agreement and smiled.

"call--"

With a sound like a whale's breath, at the same moment, the falling leaves in the air and the foreman's chest and abdomen were cut open at the same time.

Grayish-white blood splattered.

"One knife is not enough."

Uesugi Che's palm was numb from the shock of the foreman's sternum. The health of this half-star elite was obviously not on the same level as that of the monster. Even a sneak attack would not be able to seriously injure him.

While he was putting away his knife, Uesugi Tetsu could clearly see the foreman's arm moving.

It seems that the Fearful Smile can only give him a one-hit advantage over enemies of the same level.

However, this is enough.

A skilled level of Qigong would not show signs of weakness after a full-strength attack, and the long flow of energy flowing through Uesugi Che's body was much longer than before.

With this advantage, he could kill the unarmed foreman with just his strength...

Just as Uesugi Che was thinking this, the foreman suddenly raised his hand, and a heavy cold light penetrated his waist.

The severe pain of his flesh being torn apart made Uesugi Che's brows twitch. He quickly used the Qi He technique to retreat and looked at the foreman again.

What was that person holding? He didn't have a storage backpack like me.

Uesugi Tetsu saw clearly the weapon in the foreman's hand.

It was a long stick, thicker at one end and thinner at the other.

Crowbar?!
I actually forgot about this thing. Uesugi Che only paid attention to sharp weapons before, so he didn't pay much attention to this kind of cold weapon which was more of a tool.

After all, he is a foreman, so it is reasonable for him to carry a crowbar with him.

Uesugi Che glanced at the wound on his waist, which was about two fingers wide. After transferring a large amount of Qi to the wound and successfully stopping the bleeding, he said calmly, "The foreman is really thoughtful."

The foreman kicked the hard hat next to his feet and said, "Mr. Prajna, isn't it the same?"

Drag it, just drag it hard!
While chatting casually with the foreman, Uesugi Tetsu's mind was unusually clear at this moment due to his calm mind.

The foreman has no way to stop the bleeding now, so as long as time goes on, the foreman will bleed to death even without him doing anything.

And this time is destined not to be too long because of the size of the wound.

If he failed to kill the foreman this time, Uesugi Tetsu believed that the other party would never give him a second chance. In this way, not only would the time for the conquest be greatly extended, he might not even be able to get the weapons made by the blacksmith.

So, just stay steady.

Don't give this sinister foreman even a hint of weakness.

Time passed slowly, and Uesugi Tetsu watched the foreman weakening little by little, while the energy in his body had even recovered to its peak.

As one side gains, the other loses, it can almost be said that the law of victory has been determined!
But instinctively, Uesugi Tetsu felt something was wrong.

The foreman who almost gave him a fatal blow with a crowbar, didn't he know what the right choice was in desperate situations?

Uesugi Tetsu gripped the hatchet tightly and decided to take the initiative.

With a bang, a large amount of air escaped from Uesugi Che's body.

He shot out like an arrow, and the speed at which his hatchet chopped down was faster than ever before.

"come!"

But unexpectedly, the foreman roared, his body turned red in an instant, and he raised the crowbar to block the attack.

Uesugi Tetsu was knocked back two steps by this huge force, and his right arm felt severe pain, probably because of a broken bone.

Because at this moment, a red affix of [Break with Honour] suddenly appeared above the foreman's head, and the mist above his head changed from white and yellow to red, symbolizing danger.

[Broken with Honour: Gradually consumes vitality to accumulate strength. The more vitality consumed, the more strength accumulated. Vitality cannot be restored.]

Uesugi Tetsu thought to himself, "So he was waiting for me here." If he had been more steady and delayed for another three or five minutes, he might have been smashed to pieces by the foreman's crowbar.

He didn't want to experience the feeling of his upper body exploding.

Uesugi Tetsu looked at the foreman who was obviously exhausted after swinging the stick, and seized this fleeting opportunity to step forward immediately.

As he advanced, he also roared, "I will be the winner!"

The natural Rishin-ryu thrusting technique that Ririkko had demonstrated before flashed quickly through Uesugi Tetsu's mind at this moment.

He instinctively held out the hatchet.

The rusty blade cut through the wound with exquisite precision, piercing the heart with ease.

The foreman's originally powerful aura suddenly stagnated and dissipated like clouds and mist.

After Uesugi Tetsu pulled back the blade, the foreman fell to the ground with a thud.

The outcome has been decided.

In the silence, the foreman's weak voice came out with difficulty.

"Mr. Prajna..."

He turned sideways with all his strength, looking at the gray sky: "That factory..."

The foreman's eyes flashed with a passing phantom. It was the golden rice fields that once covered the mountains of Arakawa Village, and the people who worked and laughed in the fields.

It’s a pity that the past times have burst and dissipated like bubbles.

He closed his eyes and whispered softly, "Please get rid of that factory that brought filth and oppression."

Uesugi Tetsu looked down at him, his eyes dark.

Even if the foreman didn't say anything, he would never let go of the factory where so many demons gathered.

But after thinking about it, Uesugi Tetsu nodded gently and agreed: "I promise you."

Then the foreman smiled happily, feeling relieved.

"Thanks……"

The foreman said.

The "Broken with Jade" affix above his head dissipated bit by bit, until nothing was left.

A prompt appeared in front of Uesugi Tetsu at the right time.

[You killed the half-star obsession "Worker Leader" and obtained 75 soul ash.]

[You have obtained the Foreman's Crowbar (treasure).]

[You have experienced combat, and your proficiency in the Qi He Jutsu fragments has increased by +25!]

[You have experienced battle and gained some experience. Your Natural Reasoning Flow proficiency level has increased by +76!]

Uesugi Tetsu breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the ground, staring at the two moons that were gradually becoming brighter, and thought to himself that it was extremely dangerous.

The Smile of Fear was used up at the very beginning, and the Chi was used up at the last two slashes. Even the physical strength was almost gone...

It can be said that this was a completely narrow victory.

It was ridiculous that I thought at that time that I was just half a star, like a strong farmer, and it would only take a few strokes to kill him.

Now it seems that there is a gap between half a star.

I also have to thank the foreman for teaching me a lesson.

After taking a breath for a while, Uesugi Che remembered to carefully check the previous prompt.

There are quite a lot of soul ashes, nothing much to say about this, it really matches the foreman's strength.

However, what Uesugi Che did not expect was that the crowbar on the other party's body was actually exploded.

Foreman's Crowbar

【Quality: Cherish】

[Effect: Abnormally strong, greatly increases damage to all types of objects.]

[——Since I'm the foreman, it makes sense for me to carry a crowbar, right?]

Special weapons can also be said to be props.

Uesugi Che looked at the "extraordinarily strong" effect. No wonder his hatchet was broken into several pieces when they were chopping just now, but the crowbar was still intact.

Fortunately, new weapons will arrive as soon as the foreman dies, and the tattered hatchet will just roll into the warehouse and collect dust.

In addition, his proficiency in the natural rational flow increased so much suddenly, almost comparable to practicing sword twice with the ashes of soul-soothing incense.

"Battle is indeed the fast track to becoming stronger..."

It’s a pity that it’s difficult for Uesugi Che to encounter such a evenly matched battle. Either he kills the opponent instantly, or he is killed instantly by the opponent. There is no gaming experience at all.

After sitting on the ground for a while to recover some strength, Uesugi Che stood up and just happened to see that there seemed to be something in the withered farmland not far away.

He looked closely and found that it was actually a twisting white shadow.
