All-out: Starting with the Awakening Special Operations Unit, search, attack, and withdrawal.

「ざけんな、てめえ！Escapeげられると思ってるのか? The secret realm is outside the world and the human world is buried. (Are you kidding me, you bastard! Do you think you can escape? There are all our people outside the secret realm!)"

"こら, ガキ! Stop it! (Kid! Stop!)"

"..."

Yamashita was breathing heavily; the excessive consumption of his source energy had made his face noticeably pale.

However, they faced a relentless pursuit from behind.

He gritted his teeth and sped up instead of slowing down!

In his backpack was a bottle of purple-quality [Beast Serum], which the Fujiwara family's castle lord's mansion had now ordered to be prohibited from circulation.

"Damn it! Hurry! Faster!"

The shouts and curses behind him grew closer and closer. Yamashita Ye gritted his teeth, turned around abruptly, and fired the slingshot pellets, carrying his last remaining source energy, towards the rear.

however.

His foot slipped suddenly, and his expression changed drastically.

"Simata! (Oh no!)"

boom!

He fell heavily to the ground. This mistake not only caused the Fujiwara clan samurai who were about to catch up with him to rush up immediately.

This completely cut off his path to survival.

"Hanako, this is terrible, I might never be able to go back..."

Yamashita gritted his teeth, wanting to stand up and fight back. Begging for mercy would be useless once he fell into the hands of these guys, especially since he had supplies on him that these people would never let go of!

"I should have used the potion myself..."

But it's too late to regret it now.

however.

Even faster than him getting up was a burly samurai who suddenly lunged forward and, in the next second, delivered a powerful kick to Yamashita Ye's face.

"Bang!"

With a scream, Yamashita Ye was sent flying backward, blood spurting from his mouth and nose, and it seemed that several of his teeth had been knocked out by the kick.

Energy Gathering Realm, Stage Three!

It's unbearable to repair!

If Father were still alive...

He could only think this way, his heart filled with despair and sorrow. If he died in the secret realm today, what worried him more than his sister Hanako would be sad was how she would live alone in the future.

Those black market loan sharks and the thugs in Abashiri Base City will definitely not let my sister get away with this...

"Dareka...Tasket...(Please help me, I'm in trouble...)"

He struggled to stand up, but in his dim, bloodshot vision, a dark shadow suddenly flashed by.

"Bang!"

"You brat! Run! You think you can run? You think you can run from me?!"

"This kid definitely has something on him!"

The rude insults, accompanied by the merciless beating, made it seem as if several bones in Yamashita's body had shattered, and blood kept gushing from his mouth and nose.

"Kamisa, Taskette Kudase! Nannedemo, Sassiagemas, Kara, Taskette Kudase... (My God, save me, no matter the cost, please save me...)"

His consciousness gradually faded.

Just when Yamashita thought he was going to die.

The punches and kicks around them suddenly stopped, accompanied by exclamations of surprise from the Fujiwara clan samurai.

"What?!"

"Naniga, okitaenda? (What happened?)"

A soft, warm light, like the setting sun in a warm winter, entered Shan Xia Ye's eyes as he struggled to look up, piercing his blood-red retina.

A figure stood behind the setting sun, as if descending from the heavens.

What, is it a hallucination?

Am I going to die?

He remembered that the environment of this secret place was at noon, with bright, even dazzling sunlight.

Instead of a sunset like this...

however.

Before he could recover from this confusion...

"Pfft!"

The body of a warrior in front of him was suddenly pierced through by a sharp weapon, and blood spurted out.

Is that the heart?

Yamashita Ye was lost in thought, his mind seemingly out of his control, until a final, piercing scream, accompanied by abruptly stopped pleas for mercy, rang out.

He was momentarily stunned.

"......"

He lay on the ground, covered in blood, his eyes swollen and red from the beating. His eyes, barely visible as slits, stared blankly at the imposing figure overlooking him.

The other person was wearing a face mask.

Bathed in the setting sun, the figure seemed almost divine.

Gods...

Yamashita Yoru's heart pounded wildly.

"Who...who are you...?"

Hydra tilted her head, looking at the "bait" that the original author had initially chosen. After the Fujiwara family entered the game, this little shrimp really became useless.

However, it seems that we can still make use of it now.

A slight smile played at the corners of his lips.

"The name... it's been too long, I've forgotten it, but..."

He spoke slowly, but his voice struck Yamashita Yoshino's ears like a heavy hammer blow to his heart.

"You all seem to call me...Amaterasu?"

Yamashita Hayao: "!!!"

This person is incredibly audacious, daring to claim himself to be Amaterasu!

Although he was very grateful to the other party for saving him, he couldn't help but feel a bit angry after hearing the other party's words.

"Thank you so much for saving my life, sir! Please give me an address, and I will definitely pay you a visit with generous gifts!"

Yamashita Ye spoke respectfully before the evacuation point.

Then, as if he had thought of something, his expression changed.

Looking at the Hydra with empty hands, it seemed they hadn't even searched anything upon entering the map.

"My lord, the people from the city lord's mansion are currently stationed at the camp outside the secret realm. Every time they come out of the secret realm, they have to pay 30% of their harvest to them as tax. If the harvest is insufficient, they will also be fined."

"If your earnings aren't enough, I can pay your taxes for you. Also, I absolutely will not reveal a single thing about how you killed those guys to save me. I..."

Seeing the guy's strong will to survive, Hydra glanced at him indifferently.

They then went directly into the evacuation point.

The satellite signal guidance beacon, located far away in Daxia, had already severed its connection with him the moment he was brought in.

Therefore, now that he has left here, he has landed directly near the Abashiri base castle in Amaterasu Country.

"Whoosh!"

Cold snowflakes drifted down, and Hydra took a deep breath of the icy air.

"Expand Noah's building! Come on as early as possible! (Asshole! What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you come here and pay your taxes?!)"

The rude voice, mixed with obvious insults, made Hydra's eyes suddenly turn as cold as a biting wind.

His gaze swept to the side.

Seeing the unfriendly look in his eyes, the samurai's face immediately contorted with anger at being challenged, but...

"Whoosh!"

The scarlet, scorching laser beam blasted half of his body to pieces in the next second.

Blood and flesh evaporated and splattered everywhere, instantly staining the surrounding snowdrifts red.

"You bastard! Are you insane?! You...!"

"Whoosh—!"

Beneath the Hydra mask, a twisted and ferocious face, and the burning laser beams in his eyes showed no distinction, equally condemning everyone present to death.

"Damn it! If the original body finds out, I'll get yelled at by you bunch of little cabinets, and you'll have to send me back to the furnace for reworking!"

"ah--!"

When Yamashita Yoru followed him out of the secret realm, he was so terrified by the almost hellish scene before him that his body trembled and his face turned deathly pale...
