I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

"That's right, that's exactly it! So, Hero Yuu! Go save the world!"

Upon hearing Zelus's words, Yuhaka excitedly exclaimed "Oh!" and ran off. Zelus watched Yuhaka's retreating figure without saying anything, looking at her with an expression as if she were an idiot. After running for a while, Yuhaka suddenly remembered something: she seemed to have forgotten to ask Banban where the enemy was.

After arriving at the high mountain, Yuhaka climbed the tallest tree and saw the city in the distance. Yuhaka wasn't surprised by this sight, since he could always smell exhaust fumes from cars in this world, as well as other unpleasant odors. The pollution in this world was much more serious than he had imagined.

However, seeing the brightly lit city in the distance, Yhaka could roughly determine what era he was in. Soon, Yhaka put on his animal skin cloak and Meru cat headgear, then jumped down from the tree. Afterward, Yhaka also entered stealth mode and ran towards the distant city.

Chapter 1182 [Hunter? Prey?]

In the city located in the capital of the island nation, Yuhaka looked at the crowds and vehicles coming and going below from the rooftop with a puzzled expression. To be honest, seeing this peaceful scene, Yuhaka couldn't understand how the world could be destroyed. After Yuhaka climbed down the building like a gecko, he was basically undetectable by humans in his invisible state.

Yuhaka darted through the crowd like a little fish. Soon, after walking for a while, Yuhaka stopped at a display window with many televisions. The reason for Yuhaka stopping was simple: the television was playing Yuhaka's favorite food program.

Just as Yuhaka was watching a food program with an "OwO~" expression, a news broadcast suddenly interrupted the broadcast, and Yuhaka's expression instantly changed from "OwO~" to "O-O...".

The news on TV was about a fire at an animation production company whose name starts with the letter T. The number of casualties was currently unknown. However, Yuhaka was not interested in this news. After seeing that the TV was not going to continue playing the food program he had just watched, Yuhaka left in a huff.

After finding nothing unusual, Yuhaka started to get a little bored. After all, Yuhaka wasn't very good at investigating things; she was better at destroying them.

It was at this moment that Yuhaka suddenly smelled a faint scent of blood. Although it was only a tiny bit, Yuhaka had learned from Kobayashi that killing was basically impossible in a modern metropolis like this. If a murder occurred, it meant that something unexpected had happened.

Regardless, Yuhaka, drawn by the smell of blood, ran towards the scent like a shark. After a while, Yuhaka arrived at what looked like an abandoned factory, where he smelled a strong stench of blood.

Yuhaka tilted his head and jumped over the wall. After entering the abandoned factory, Yuhaka followed the smell of blood to the abandoned work center, which was originally a storage area for goods. Here, Yuhaka saw the corpses of more than a dozen adults. Most of the corpses were mutilated, and blood was splattered around like paint, turning the place a bright red. Yuhaka was not frightened by the scene before him.

After all, if Yhaka were to fight seriously, the bloodshed would often be far more horrific than what's happening here.

"Um OwO?"

As if he had discovered something, Yuhaka tilted his head and looked at the corpses lying on the ground. Judging from the wounds on the corpses, Yuhaka could tell that these guys had been killed with what appeared to be a large-caliber gun, powerful enough to break human bones and muscle tissue. Yuhaka also saw bullet holes on the iron plate next to him, which was enough to prove how powerful the weapon was.

Most importantly, among the traces left by the shooting, Yuhaka smelled an energy aura similar to Mana. Clearly, this place was abnormal. Previously, Yuhaka could sense that there was no magic in this world, and the ground beneath his feet had no trace of divine power or elven aura.

Following the scent, Yuhaka carefully sniffed his surroundings. Even though the area was surrounded by a strong smell of blood, Yuhaka could still detect the scent of that strange energy within the blood.

Following the strange energy, Yuhaka also smelled a faint fragrance. Yuhaka sniffed the scent left on the ground more carefully and found that the fragrance was coming from a pile of wooden planks. Yuhaka could tell that it was the scent of a female human.

However, Yuhaka did not see any human female corpses among these bodies. Yuhaka thought that it was possible that the female human had killed the humans. Curious, Yuhaka decided to follow the scent. Although the scent had been there for some time, it had not disappeared, so Yuhaka was able to track it down.

After spending half an hour in Yuhaka, he returned to the bustling city from the abandoned factory. Following the smell, he arrived at a small alley. There were trash cans and some discarded items in the alley, but these were not the main point. The main point was the empty cans on the ground.

Yuhaka squatted down and picked up one of the empty cans. He saw that it was printed with the Japanese words "cat food can". After smelling the empty can, Yuhaka confirmed that the scent was exactly the same as the scent of the human female he had smelled at the abandoned factory, and it seemed that she had just left.

After confirming the above information, Yuhaka stood up, looked around, and then opened its small mouth and let out a "meow~".

As soon as Yuhaka finished speaking, several cats darted out from the surrounding clutter. They then came out and sat down beside Yuhaka, meowing at her. Yuhaka crouched down and asked the cats:

"Meow, meow meow meow O-O?"

Upon hearing Yuhaka's question, the cats meowed a few times in response. After hearing their words, Yuhaka nodded and said:

"Meow meow =w=~"

As she spoke, Yuhaka took out the dried fish she had made and distributed them to the cats. Then, Yuhaka walked in the direction the cats indicated. When she had asked the cats earlier, Yuhaka had learned from them that the person feeding them was a girl with black twin tails and red eyes, wearing a school uniform.

Having learned the target's appearance, Yuhaka was able to pinpoint it more easily. Just as Yuhaka was following the target's scent, he smelled blood again, which made him frown slightly. However, Yuhaka sped up and ran towards the target.

Soon, Yuhaka arrived at the alleyway filled with the smell of blood. In the alley, Yuhaka saw a black twin-tailed girl wearing a red and black gothic dress raise a flintlock pistol and pull the trigger at a delinquent boy who was lying on the ground trying to beg for mercy. With a gunshot, the delinquent boy who was begging for mercy fell to the ground and did not move.

"Ok?"

Suddenly noticing something, the black twin-tailed girl turned around and looked behind her. When she saw Yuhaka wearing a Meru cat headgear and an animal skin cloak, she was slightly stunned. However, when she saw the enormous aura of time emanating from Yuhaka, the girl's left eye, which resembled a clock, lit up, and her cherry-red lips involuntarily turned up.

"Oh my, looks like I've found a pretty good prey~?"

Chapter 1183 [Kurumi Tokisaki]

Yuhaka narrowed his eyes as he looked at the girl with black twin ponytails wearing a red and black gothic dress. Yuhaka could clearly sense the bloody smell emanating from the woman, indicating that she had killed quite a few humans. However, Yuhaka was more concerned about the special energy smell emanating from her, which resembled that of Mana, and it seemed to be coming from her clothes and weapons.

Most importantly, Yuhaka felt that this smell was somewhat familiar, but Yuhaka didn't care about that now, because he could feel that the guy in front of him was staring at him.

Just as Yuhaka had suspected, the black-haired twin-tailed girl had indeed set her sights on him. The reason was the immense "time" emanating from Yuhaka. As Yuhaka had fused with the divine essence of Tiamat, he essentially possessed infinite time. The black-haired twin-tailed girl was hunting down those delinquents in exchange for this "time."

"Hmm~ Not bad. You seem to have a lot of time on you, and judging from your attire, you're also from another world, right?"

Upon hearing the words of the girl with black twin tails, Zelus, standing behind Yuhaka, also raised a question mark above her head and said:

"A white-haired girl? Who brought Kurumi Tokisaki into this world?"

Hearing Zelus's words, Yuhaka, who was standing to the side, was also a little confused and asked:

"Tokisaki Kurumi O1O?"

Before Zelus could answer Yuhaka's question, the black-haired twin-tailed girl not far away, who was none other than Tokisaki Kurumi, paused slightly upon hearing Yuhaka's words and said:

"Huh? You know me?"

Before Yuhaka could react, Kurumi Tokisaki, realizing something, nodded and said:

"That's true. In this world created by a creator, it's very easy to find out information about people from other worlds who have traveled here. Not to mention, novels about our world are quite famous in this world."

Upon hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's words, Zelus also said that she could guess how Kurumi had traveled to this world. Without a doubt, it was the girl in military uniform known as "Altair" from [RE:CREATORS] who brought Kurumi to this world. However, that was basically impossible, since this world was located above the world of RE:CREATORS. With Altair's ability of all things, it was impossible for her to ascend from her own world to this world.

There are only two ways that Altair could come to this world: one is that he was transported to this world by the void transfer phenomenon, and the other is that someone brought Altair to this world.

Thinking about all this, Zelus couldn't help but feel a headache coming on, because for Zelus, the latter possibility was more likely. After all, she couldn't even locate Altair's position, which clearly meant that someone was interfering with the system's search. As for who it was, Zelus had a general idea.

The scene returns to Yuhaka and Kurumi Tokisaki. Kurumi Tokisaki looks at Yuhaka and continues to speak:

"Well... I don't care where you got your information from, but right now I want to eat you up even more."

As she spoke, Kurumi Tokisaki licked her lips. Seeing this, Yuhaka trembled all over. Hearing that the other party wanted to eat her made Yuhaka feel a little scared. However, Yuhaka realized that the other party could not beat her and immediately relaxed.

Seeing Yuhaka suddenly become scared and then relax made Tokisaki Kurumi a little confused, but she didn't care too much. After all, it was rare to find someone with such an immeasurable time limit. Tokisaki Kurumi would definitely not let Yuhaka go. Besides, even if she absorbed some of Yuhaka's time, he wouldn't die. At most, he would just feel a little tired.

"Alright, I'm going to get started now, little one. It'll only take a little while, it won't hurt~"

As she spoke, the shadow beneath Tokisaki Kurumi's feet seemed to come alive, surging towards Yuhaka's feet. Seeing this, Yuhaka jumped onto the wall to avoid the approaching shadow. Seeing Yuhaka clinging to the wall like a gecko surprised her slightly, but she quickly realized that Yuhaka was also from another world and it was normal for her to have various special abilities. However, Tokisaki Kurumi dared to say that her abilities were basically invincible most of the time.

While controlling her shadow to chase after Yhaka, Kurumi Tokisaki also summoned her angel "Zafkiel" and used her flintlock pistol to target Yhaka, who was moving along the wall, and unleashed her power.

"The second bullet."

As spiritual energy gathered at the muzzle of Tokisaki Kurumi's flintlock pistol, she pulled the trigger. A shot rang out, and the spiritual energy bullet fired from the flintlock pistol flew towards Yuhaka. Yuhaka, who was paying close attention to Tokisaki Kurumi's movements, naturally sensed the attack. Yuhaka easily dodged Tokisaki Kurumi's attack by spinning in the air. Seeing Yuhaka dodge her shot, Tokisaki Kurumi was somewhat surprised by how fast Yuhaka's reaction was, but it wasn't a big deal.

Kurumi Tokisaki's flintlock pistol suddenly seemed to become semi-automatic, unleashing a barrage of attacks at Yuhaka. However, Yuhaka's agility was even more unexpected than Kurumi's. Even with the shadow chasing from behind, Yuhaka was able to weave through the hail of bullets. Then, after Yuhaka was some distance away from Kurumi, he suddenly unleashed a dragon aura attack, instantly passing through Kurumi's attacks and rushing straight at her.

Kurumi Tokisaki was a little surprised to see Yhaka rushing towards her. Soon, Yhaka slammed Kurumi to the ground and then, sitting on top of her, he drew the Baradion sword and pressed it against Kurumi's chest.

Upon seeing this scene, Kurumi Tokisaki was stunned for a moment. Then, she revealed a smug smile. By the time Yuhka noticed what was happening, it was too late. Several white arms suddenly emerged from the shadows beneath Kurumi and grabbed Yuhka's animal skin cloak and small feet, who was sitting on Kurumi. The next second, Yuhka and Kurumi Tokisaki sank into the shadows.

In the shadows, Yuhaka saw a large group of Tokisaki Kurumi figures in the dimly lit place. The arms that were grabbing his feet were also the arms of other Tokisaki Kurumi figures. The morbid smiles of those Tokisaki Kurumi figures frightened Yuhaka.

Chapter 1184 [Youyou: You're a bad guy, Youyou's going to run away! OwO]

In the Eclipse Castle located in Tokisaki Kurumi's territory, Yuhaka was captured by a group of Tokisaki Kurumi and brought there. Here, Yuhaka could clearly feel something flowing away from his body, so he activated his Imaginary Number ability to enter the Imaginary Number state. After Yuhaka entered the Imaginary Number state, the clones of Tokisaki Kurumi who were holding him suddenly lost their grip on him.

Seeing Yuhaka suddenly turn into a phantom also stunned Tokisaki Kurumi and the others. This sudden change left them a little stunned. After they came to their senses, Yuhaka broke free from Tokisaki Kurumi's restraints.

After Yhaka broke free from Tokisaki Kurumi's restraints, Yhaka, who had entered the Imaginary State, could still feel something flowing away from his body. Clearly, the Imaginary State was not completely invincible, which made Yhaka wary.

As for why Yhaka's Imaginary State wasn't immune to Tokisaki Kurumi's Eclipse City effect, it's quite simple. Both the Imaginary State used by Yhaka and the Eclipse City possessed by Tokisaki Kurumi are powers of the laws. These two powers belong to the same level of laws, and basically, they can influence each other.

After realizing what was happening, Tokisaki Kurumi looked at Yuhka with a puzzled expression. Clearly, the other party possessed a special ability. Although she didn't know what the other party's ability was, Tokisaki Kurumi could clearly feel that this special ability could not resist the influence of her Eclipse Castle. To be honest, for the first time, Tokisaki Kurumi was a little annoyed that her Eclipse Castle was so useless.

The reason why it's not doing well is because the absorption speed of the City of Time is too slow. Although the City of Time can absorb the time of a target over a large area, there is a limit to the amount of time that the City of Time can absorb, no matter how many people are in the target. If the target has spiritual power, one can rely on Zafkiel and the City of Time to increase the absorption rate. However, Yuhaka does not have spiritual power, so Kurumi Tokisaki is unable to effectively absorb the time from Yuhaka.

However, just as Tokisaki Kurumi was unable to escape from her Eclipse Castle because of Yhaka, she saw Yhaka suddenly tear open a crack, which stunned everyone present. Then Yhaka wiggled his butt, patted his butt, and disappeared into the imaginary rift.

It wasn't until the Imaginary Number Rift disappeared that Kurumi Tokisaki realized that Yhaka had already escaped. Looking at the spot where Yhaka had left, the Kurumi Tokisakis and her friends were dumbfounded. Clearly, the scene of "Yhaka slipping away from us and even mocking us" left them somewhat bewildered. After they came to their senses, Kurumi Tokisaki herself hurriedly came out of the City of Eclipse. In the alleyway where she had been, apart from the corpses of the delinquents, Kurumi Tokisaki had hardly seen Yhaka. It was obvious that Yhaka had run away.

After confirming that Yuhaka had escaped, Kurumi Tokisaki couldn't help but sigh and say:

"So, they really escaped?"

Several clones peeked out from behind Kurumi Tokisaki and looked at their main body, saying:

"Oh dear, the duck that was almost in my hand has flown away."

"Yes, main body, you were a bit careless."

Hearing her clones chattering and mocking her, Kurumi Tokisaki said to them with some impatience:

"Instead of making sarcastic remarks, you might as well help me find out where that target has gone. I need to find him."

Upon hearing her main body's words, Tokisaki Kurumi's clones obediently indicated that they understood and then dispersed to search for Yuhaka's whereabouts. Tokisaki Kurumi herself couldn't help but look up at the moon in the night sky and recall her past wishes.

That is to return to the world 30 years ago where my world is located, and kill the first spirit, which is named Amemura Reine, whose real name is Takamiya Mio. However, according to the information I found in the encyclopedia of this world, it seems that I can't beat Takamiya Mio no matter how I fight. After all, the information I have is that the being named Takamiya Mio has the ability to instantly kill me and other spirits, and my abilities are also difficult to be effective against that guy. In addition, that guy's multiple abilities are simply a bug-like existence.

Therefore, his long-cherished wish changed from killing the original spirit to killing the three guys who summoned the original spirit, namely "Allen Mira Mathers", "Elliot Baldwin Woodman" and "Isaac Repellum Westcott". If he killed these three people, the original spirit would not be summoned, and he would also be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish.

However, Kurumi Tokisaki's only concern was the world line. What should she do if her actions led to two different world lines?

Thinking about these things, Kurumi Tokisaki couldn't help but feel a headache. However, there was still one way: to find their creator and let him change the tragedy of their world. But this was on the condition that what the girl in the military uniform said was true.

.................................................. ...................

After escaping Kurumi Tokisaki's Eclipse Castle through the Imaginary Rift, Yuhka plopped down on the small island within his imaginary space, looking relieved. Seeing Yuhka's relieved expression, Zelus, standing nearby, looked at him speechlessly and said:

"Why did you run away like a mouse seeing a cat?"

Upon hearing Zelus's words, Yuhaka also took off the Meru cat headgear he was wearing and said:

"That older sister's smile is so scary, it feels like Ji Lin when she's angry QwQ."

Zelus, upon hearing Yuhaka's words, couldn't help but cover her forehead and say:

"My God, she's not even afraid of those hideous alien insects, so why is she so afraid of those yandere faces?"

Then Zelus shook her head and said:

"Alright, let's leave it at that for today. You can continue the search tomorrow morning. I'm going to investigate some other things and will be back later. You can wander around and deal with any bad guys you encounter."

As she spoke, Zelus also left. After seeing Zelus leave, a question mark appeared above Yuhaka's head, but Yuhaka didn't care too much. After calling Esther out, the two went to the small villa on the island in the imaginary space.

Chapter 1185 [Youyou: Another bad guy | O一O)?]

Inside the imaginary space to which Yhaka belonged, Yhaka woke up in bed.

“(￣ω￣;) Hmm... I dreamt about bad guys.”

Looking sleepy, Yuhaka rubbed his eyes and said, "Just like I said, last night when I was sleeping, I dreamed that a large group of Tokisaki Kurumi were chasing me with yandere smiles, looking like they wanted to drain me dry. This scared me a little, but thankfully I woke up in time. Otherwise, I would have had the urge to draw Baradion and the Demon Slayer Sword and unleash a beam of light on them."

Yuhaka patted his soft, slightly round face and then woke up. After standing up and stepping over Esther, who was tired from playing last night, Yuhaka washed his face, made two breakfasts, and woke Esther up.

After finishing breakfast, Esther, unable to resist her sleepiness, went to take a nap in Yuhaka's contract space. Yuhaka, after checking that the cats' vegetables and fruits on the island were fine, also came out of the imaginary space. Of course, the exit was in another place, and Yuhaka wouldn't go back to the previous place for the time being. Although Yuhaka wasn't afraid to fight Tokisaki Kurumi, the kind of place that could absorb people's things (the City of Time) still made Yuhaka a little uncomfortable.

Eohaka felt as if something was being sucked away, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. This bothered him. As a primitive Zerg, what they hated most were thieves who could steal their power for no reason. After all, the power of primitive Zerg was obtained through fierce battles, and it was bound to make them very unhappy if it was stolen so easily by others. Eohaka felt the same way.
