Cyber Wanderer isn't a company dog whose lifeline is held by the company. The company can devour its dogs in one fell swoop because everything the dogs have was given to them by the company.
Cyber Wanderers are different. They never sign contracts or agreements when commissioning or accepting tasks. They operate entirely on trust and leave no trace.
That's why people say that on the streets, reputation is just as important as ability.
"Thanks, Old Wei."
Ke Ling thanked Lao Wei again. It was no joke that having an elder in the family was like having a treasure, especially a legendary figure like Lao Wei, who was an invaluable treasure.
Old Wei waved his hand without saying anything more. He picked up his bag and left first, leaving Ke Ling with a dashing back view.
Ke Ling didn't linger and quickly left Lao Wei's secret base.
However, Ke Ling doesn't need to leave the city to hide. He has a better way to conceal himself. Even if those corporate thugs turn Night City upside down, they still won't be able to find him.
Ke Ling found a deserted alley and looked at the four large characters of the system: "Activate Time Travel".
He doesn't want to return to the world of "Demon Slayer" for the time being. Finding demons is too much trouble, and acting out a "you're all good" act with the Demon Slayer Corps is too tiring.
Moreover, it seems that the main theme of Demon Slayer is the conflict between the Demon Slayer Corps and the demons. He has already obtained the abilities of both sides, so going to another world won't improve him much. He might as well try his luck in a new world.
"Perhaps it's time to embark on an adventure into a new world."
Ke Ling made a quick decision. He was not weak in terms of self-preservation now, and as long as the world was not too abnormal, surviving would definitely not be a problem.
Ke Ling's vision blurred, and his figure vanished from the spot. Everything before him changed, but it didn't seem like much had changed.
His figure was still in a small alley, but of course, the background outside the alley had changed. Although it was still high-rise buildings, it was clearly not Night City anymore.
[Time travel complete]
[Current World: Tokyo Ghoul]
A system notification popped up, and Ke Ling's lips twitched. Goodness, a famous food anime, huh?
Here it is!
Chapter 104 Sympathies
"Sniff sniff~"
Ke Ling sniffed. Under the cover of night, the smell of human flesh and blood wafted through the dark alley.
"Mmm, it smells wonderful."
For ghouls, nighttime is also the perfect time to hunt, and the alleyways throughout the city are their hunting grounds.
However, unlike demons like Ke Ling, ghouls are not afraid of sunlight. They are used to hunting at night because they need to hide in human society during the day.
In other words, in this world, your classmates and colleagues could all be ghouls who go out at night to hunt humans.
Ke Ling activated his optical camouflage, which enveloped his entire body, and his figure disappeared after a series of color shifts.
After turning two corners in the alley, Ke Ling was greeted by a sight that whetted his appetite.
One ghoul was eating a person, while another ghoul knelt beside it with its back to Ke Ling, seemingly waiting to get a share.
"My name is Kazuo, and I haven't eaten in a long time either. I'm sorry, I can only share a little with you."
The ghoul that was eating people tore off a piece of flesh and handed it to the ghoul kneeling next to it. The two ghouls were actually quite harmonious.
The human man on the ground, being devoured, stared wide-eyed, looking as if he had died with his eyes wide open. One wonders what he was thinking about this.
"The taste is a bit different. This guy kneeling on the ground is neither a ghoul nor a human."
Ke Ling leaned against the wall at the corner, her eyes looking strange. She wasn't a ghoul, nor a human; could she be...?
Just then, Ke Ling saw another ghoul coming from the other side of the alley. The ghoul twitched its nose and looked in his direction with some confusion.
This made Ke Ling realize that the ghoul's nose seemed to be pretty good too. Although he had concealed his form, his scent had not disappeared with him.
A brown-haired man wearing glasses walked towards them and kicked the ghoul that was eating in the head.
"Oh!"
The ghoul's head was kicked off, flying past the kneeling ghoul and landing not far from Ke Ling's feet.
Unlike demons, an injury like having one's head kicked off is generally fatal to ghouls, except for certain kagune monsters.
"Don't just start eating in other people's ghouls."
The brown-haired, bespectacled man was extremely arrogant. After kicking one of his own kind to death, his gaze fell on the one kneeling on the ground.
"A new face? Why is only one of your eyes red? That's disgusting."
The brown-haired, bespectacled man's words evoked a sense of familiarity in Ke Ling, and he tried hard to recall the plot he had seen before.
Because so much time had passed, Ke Ling could only recall the general plot. He clearly hadn't gained the ability to enhance his memory after his transmigration, and remembering the details of every anime series he had ever watched was somewhat difficult for him.
"Could this arrogant guy be Nishio Nishiki?"
The familiar feeling led Ke Ling to make a judgment: Kaneki Ken must have just undergone surgery and been turned into a one-eyed ghoul.
"Oh!"
Nishio Nishiki grabbed the ghoul by the neck, lifted the ghoul, who was wearing a blue hoodie and black pants, up with one hand and pressed him against the wall.
Ke Ling stood at the corner, and at that moment she could finally see the young boy's appearance clearly.
The boy had a black sclera and blood-red pupil in his left eye, but his right eye was like a human's; he was a one-eyed ghoul.
It really is Kaneki Ken! I'm used to seeing him with white hair, but I almost didn't recognize him with black hair.
"Sniff sniff~"
Ke Ling twitched her nose and smelled another scent rapidly approaching, from the sky, no, it was coming from the rooftop.
Nishiki Nishio, Ken Kaneki, and that one approaching must be the female protagonist, Touka Kirishima, right?
"Do you know what happens when you trespass on someone else's food stall without permission?"
Nishio Nishiki was swaggering over Kaneki Ken, who looked terrified, with an extremely arrogant demeanor.
Kaneki Ken, who was just an ordinary college student not long ago, had never experienced such a scene before. Naturally, he was quite frightened.
"Sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't know! I was just passing by!"
With his neck being choked, Kaneki Ken struggled to apologize, trying to get the ghoul monster in front of him to let him go.
"If your girlfriend is lying naked on one side, and a man with his lower body completely naked next to her is shouting that he didn't do anything and was just passing by, would you believe him?"
Nishio Nishiki grinned maliciously and tightened his grip, rendering Kaneki Ken unable to respond.
The example he gave made Ke Ling's lips twitch. This Japanese netizen, could you please tone it down? The example you gave was good, but don't use it again next time.
"Who is there?!"
Nishio Nishiki suddenly turned his head to look in the direction where Ke Ling was, and shouted loudly.
His nose kept telling him that there was a strange creature nearby, but he couldn't see it.
"When did this place become your ghoul's den, Jin?"
Before Ke Ling could manifest and speak, the girl who had just arrived at the rooftop next to them jumped down on her own initiative. She landed easily on the ground, which was five or six stories high.
Ghouls possess physical abilities far exceeding those of humans. Compared to demons, ghouls have an overwhelming advantage over humans because ordinary weapons simply cannot harm them.
In the world of Demon Slayer, ordinary people can fight back against demons like Tanjiro Kamado, and even an ordinary axe can harm a demon if it can't kill it.
However, ordinary people are helpless against ghouls, because ordinary weapons won't even leave a mark on a ghoul's body.
"Dong Xiang?"
Nishiki Nishio put Kaneki Ken down and looked at the little girl who had suddenly appeared.
Ke Ling also looked over. Kirishima Touka, with her purple hair and purple eyes, was relatively easy to recognize, unlike Kaneki Ken, whose black hair made him look too ordinary.
“I already know. That gluttonous woman Rize is dead. This place was originally my ghouling ground, but that bastard Rize took it over before.”
Faced with Touka Kirishima's questioning, Nishiki Nishio was clearly impatient; Touka Kirishima's attitude made him very unhappy.
He knew that after Rize the Gluttonous died, the ghouls that Rize had taken over were distributed to the weaker ghouls, but this place was originally his, and he was just taking back his own ghoul.
Their neighborhood in Tokyo's 20th ward was managed by the "Antei Ward Coffee Shop," but he had no intention of listening to those elderly, weak, and disabled people bossing him around.
A fight broke out between the two quickly, and it ended just as quickly. After only one exchange, Nishio Nishiki fled in terror, covering his head.
Nishio Nishiki, an A-rank fighter, was clearly no match for Kirishima Touka, an S-rank fighter. Kirishima Touka dodged Nishio Nishiki's attacks, while Kirishima Touka easily cut more than a dozen wounds on Nishio Nishiki's body.
Ke Ling observed from the sidelines. These ghouls were indeed quite powerful in combat. Kirishima Touka was very fast, and her kagune was a yukata, which had extremely strong explosive power.
After driving away the arrogant Nishiki Nishio, Touka Kirishima looked at Ken Kaneki, who was struggling to suppress his craving for human flesh.
Ke Ling could empathize with Kaneki Ken's expression of wanting to eat it so badly but not wanting to.
But he was actually a little better off; at least the appearance of the [Limit System] kept him mentally stable, and he only needed to resist the feeling of hunger.
Judging from Kaneki Ken's current state of lying on the ground crying bitterly, the child is probably on the verge of a nervous breakdown due to the torment of his body's instinctive desires.
"Aren't you going to eat? Wait, aren't you that kind of person?"
Touka Kirishima picked up one of the human corpse's arms and handed it to Ken Kaneki, but her expression changed drastically after she saw Kaneki's face.
Ken Kaneki also recognized Touka Kirishima. He often went to the "Anteiku Coffee Shop" to drink coffee and read books, and Touka Kirishima was an employee of that coffee shop.
"Please! Save me! I don't want to eat human flesh! I'm human!"
Kaneki Ken sent a helpless plea for help to Kirishima Touka. He didn't want to eat people, he didn't want to become a monster. If he ate people, could he still be considered human?
However, he could hardly control himself; his saliva was drooling, his arms were reaching out to grab human flesh uncontrollably, and his brain was constantly stimulating him.
"If you don't have the courage to eat it, then let me help you!"
Seeing Kaneki Ken struggling, Kirishima Touka took action. She tore a piece of flesh from the corpse and was about to shove it into Kaneki Ken's mouth.
"Buzz!"
Ke Ling activated the Sianwistan, leaping forward with a burst of speed, raising his heat samurai sword.
"Pfft!"
A severed hand, clutching flesh and blood, flew up. Kirishima Touka quickly retreated, clutching her right wrist, which was now empty.
“Girl, I think he has the right to choose whether or not he wants to eat human flesh.”
