The Gastrea's immense strength smashed a crater in the solid ground, but the little girl in front of them had vanished without a trace.

"Enju, she's disappeared?"

Rentaro Satomi, who was a step too late, and the middle-aged policeman whom he called Inspector Tadajima also arrived just in time to witness the little girl suddenly disappear just before she was in danger.

"I thought it was some senior figure."

A familiar voice suddenly rang out, and Satomi Rentaro instinctively turned his gaze toward the direction from which the voice came. There he saw not only his partner who had always been by his side, but also Lin Yu, whom he had met not long ago!

"It's just a big spider. What a disappointment."

Lin Yu held the petite little girl in his arms and shook his head with a regretful expression.

"Quickly, put me down!"

Enju, with her twin ponytails, struggled to jump down from Lin Yu's arms. Lin Yu, who had just shown a regretful expression, suddenly became serious.

Cough cough, he would never admit that he was being so serious because he felt Shana's murderous gaze.

"Spider Form - Phase I Confirmed! Engage in combat now!"

Although surprised by Lin Yu's speed in saving Enju in that instant, Satomi Rentaro quickly focused his attention on the Stage I Gastrea in front of him.

As Rentaro Satomi aimed his black pistol at the giant spider, he was surprised to find that Tadajima, who was standing next to him, also pointed his pistol at it.

While Rentaro Satomi was in a daze, the middle-aged police inspector had already pulled the trigger.

boom!boom!

The bullets pierced the Gastrea's defenses. Stage I Gastrea's defenses are not strong; even a weak handgun can penetrate them. However, even Stage I Gastrea possesses extremely powerful regenerative abilities. The two bullets that entered its body were expelled, and the wounds healed instantly. The giant spider turned around nonchalantly, ready to launch its attack.

boom!boom!boom!boom!

Another gunshot rang out. This time, it was police officer Rentaro Satomi who fired the shot. Unlike the bullets used by Tadajima, the bullets he used were colored bullets that could suppress Gastrea's regeneration!

Bullets rained down on the giant spider's head, but even after he ran out of bullets, the spider remained standing there, full of life, and even seemed ready to launch another attack, clearly not suffering any fatal wounds.

Beside Lin Yu, Yan Zhu's eyes emitted a strange red light, which was also the mark of the cursed children. Whenever they used their power, their eyes would emit a red light that was completely different from that of ordinary people!

Just as Yeonju was about to jump out to fight, a small hand suddenly pressed down on her head.

"Little girls should act like little girls; fighting and killing is not good."

Lin Yu flashed his standard warm smile, but this precocious little girl wasn't buying it.

"I belong to Rentaro, old man, don't even think about it!"

The little girl raised her hand and protested energetically, but just one sentence from her rendered Lin Yu ashen-faced.

"M-Uncle..."

Lin Yu pointed to himself, almost in tears. He could accept being called the Holy Emperor, but now he was being called "uncle" again. Strictly speaking, he was about the same age as Rentaro!

"I'm not happy!"

Lin Yu bluntly expressed his current feelings, released Yan Zhu's head and walked forward. He needed to vent, and there just happened to be such a tough punching bag in front of him. Who else should he punch if not this one?

"Hey, sir, that giant spider is dangerous!"

Yeonju stomped her foot, ready to chase after him, but was stopped by a similarly petite figure with black hair.

"It's only Phase I, it doesn't pose a threat to him yet."

Shana turned her head slightly and said this, then looked at Lin Yu with a rather bored expression. Heaven knows how many Gastrea they had killed back then. At most, they were just cannon fodder in Phase One. Thousands or thousands might have a small impact, but if even a single one could threaten Lin Yu, he would rather find a block of tofu and kill himself.

Roar!

The giant spider let out a nasty cry and lashed out at Lin Yu, who was standing right next to it. Lin Yu stood frozen in place, as if he had been paralyzed with fear.

"Danger!"

Rentaro Satomi was startled and hurriedly pulled the trigger, but he had already run out of bullets, so pulling the trigger now had no effect.

Having concealed his true strength from the beginning, he had no ranged attack methods and could only watch helplessly until he noticed the smile on Lin Yu's face.

boom!

A dull thud rang out, and Tadajima and Satomi Rentaro stared wide-eyed in disbelief as Lin Yu firmly held one of the giant spider's front legs in his hand, rendering it unable to move!

The sight of the enormous Gastrea being grabbed by one of its front legs by Lin Yu, who even appeared somewhat thin, yet unable to break free, was particularly eerie. It was as if an adorable little girl was arm wrestling with a muscular boxing champion, resulting in the champion's veins bulging while the little girl remained perfectly still and adorable.

"How...could that be?"

Rentaro Satomi had never seen anyone stronger than a Gastrea. It would be one thing if it were an Initiator or a muscular man, but how could someone as seemingly frail as Lin Yu do it?

Gastrea is not surprised. With one of its forelimbs grabbed, it opened its huge mouth and prepared to swallow Lin Yu whole.

"If you're going to be a punching bag, then act like one! You bastard!"

A pleased smile appeared on Lin Yu's lips. He grabbed the forelimb he was holding and swung it around forcefully!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Time and again, the giant spider's enormous body was like a sandbag, slammed into the ground by Lin Yu, creating one huge crater after another...

[Uh, one of my complaints seems to have brought out a lot of lurkers. Seeing so many people has at least restored some of my confidence 0.0.... This chapter has a lot of words, so it took a bit longer. Sorry.]

;

124. Finished and called it a day.

"Is this guy a monster?"

Rentaro Satomi stared in disbelief as he blurted out his thoughts, and even Inspector Tadajima, who was standing next to him, subconsciously nodded in agreement.

"You guys have some nerve, calling Xiaoyu a monster to my face!"

Shana's sharp gaze swept over the two innocent onlookers. The stark contrast between her youthful appearance and her immature demeanor immediately intimidated the two grown men. Shana's aura was not something that anyone could withstand.

"Sorry sorry."

Rentaro Satomi apologized repeatedly, swallowing hard. He simply couldn't believe that this little girl possessed such an amazing aura. Even if she was a cursed child, it was still too outrageous!

Yes, in Rentaro Satomi's eyes, Shana is a cursed child. After all, Shana's appearance is really no different from that of a cursed child, and coupled with her powerful aura, it is normal for her to be regarded this way.

Shana was too lazy to explain anything. She didn't care what others thought, and she'd rather spend that time watching how Lin Yu fought.

Well, it doesn't seem like there's anything to see. After all, it's only a Stage I spider, which would be instantly killed in front of the two of them. The fact that it's still alive is just because Lin Yu wants to vent his anger. Otherwise, with his strength, he would have been able to crush this unlucky giant spider to death with the first blow.

"Tch, too weak. You have to be careful when hitting it, you can't use too much force. Stage I is still too fragile."

Lin Yu muttered a couple of words, then suddenly exerted his strength, and the giant spider-like Gastrea's huge body slammed into the already ravaged and cracked ground with a loud thud. However, this time it wasn't just cracks; the terrifying force directly shattered the ground and the giant spider together. Even with the Gastrea's body strength, it was torn to pieces by this fall, and purplish-black turbid blood was splattered everywhere. Fortunately, Lin Yu ran fast and didn't get any on him, otherwise he would have been disgusted with himself.

"Done and that's it."

Lin Yu clapped his hands in satisfaction. Although he had arrived ten years later, compared to not long ago when he was still fighting against stage V Gastrea, he had finally encountered a weak one and had a good time.

"Ugh, the job I finally got was snatched away again."

It took Rentaro quite a while to realize what was happening. He rubbed his hair in annoyance, thinking that dealing with such a Gastrea could bring considerable benefits!

"By the way, is it still possible to catch the limited-time sale?"

Enju walked up to Satomi Rentaro with great energy. After hearing what she said, Satomi Rentaro felt as if he was about to miss the most important thing in his life. He turned around and ran away without even saying goodbye.

"Can't you be a little more sensible?"

Lin Yu covered his eyes, unable to bear the sight. Meanwhile, Rentaro Satomi was running while shouting, "A bag of bean sprouts is only six yen!"

The sound still echoed in the alley, but Rentaro Satomi and Enju had already run far away. Lin Yu was both amused and exasperated. To get so excited over a bag of bean sprouts for six yen was simply embarrassing for a protagonist!

"Um, can I get my payment now?"

Leaving the impoverished original protagonist behind him, Lin Yu turned his gaze to Inspector Tadajima, who was still watching Rentaro Satomi's departing figure.

"Ah, um, of course."

……

"Xiaoyu, why did we come here?"

Shana looked around warily. She was currently in a small private room with Lin Yu, with only a computer and a comfortable sofa in front of them.

Yes, it's the kind of sofa big enough for two people to lie down and sleep on!

She had always been wary of Lin Yu's character; who knew what tricks he might play? It was better to be cautious.

“We’re not like before, where everything was taken care of for us. We need to get ourselves some status and some money, right?”

Lin Yu's hands were rapidly typing on the keyboard. Don't forget, he used to be a typical tech geek!

"I see."

Shana nodded slightly. She didn't care much about these things, but she wouldn't stop Lin Yu if he was willing.

"Done. This world has a lot of advanced technology, but its computer technology is only at an average level. It was surprisingly easy."

Lin Yu clapped his hands, then turned his gaze to Xia Na sitting next to him.

"Shana, how long has it been since we've been alone together like this?"

Lin Yu blinked, staring at Shana's eyes.

"how long?"

Shana was slightly taken aback. Thinking back, it seemed like a really long time had passed. Although the two had met again some time ago, they hadn't had time to get together alone before because of the presence of the Holy Emperor and the two little ones, Kisara.

"It's been several months for me, Xiaoyu, why are you asking this?"

Shana looked completely bewildered, but when she saw the mischievous grin on Lin Yu's face, she suddenly understood.

"Hey idiot, what do you think you're doing?"

Shana's vigilance increased several levels, because Lin Yu had already begun to take action.

"Hehe, it's been so long since I've hugged my Shana, hasn't it?"

Lin Yu pressed his entire body against Shana, who was leaning back slightly, making him look like a strange old man trying to force himself on a little girl.

Shana was a little stunned by Lin Yu's sudden action. By the time she came to her senses, Lin Yu's face was almost touching hers.

"Idiot, don't you know better than to be mindful of the occasion!"

Once she realized what was happening, Shana slapped Lin Yu on the head with a chop to the head, gave the gentleman a disapproving look, and opened the door to the private room on her own.

"Now that we've finished our business, let's go."

Regardless of whether Lin Yu followed, Shana walked out on her own.
