Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

If it were someone like Levi who wanted to cause trouble, he could only watch, but if it were Isaac who wanted to cause trouble...

This is a major crisis!

--------

"Um... this is for you."

Isaac was sitting in a chair looking at his phone when he saw the girl who had been next to the man in sunglasses earlier offer him a steaming drink.

What is this?

"Rice wine, huh?" the girl said with a smile.

"Oh, thank you."

After the farce that just happened, neither side had any intention of continuing the fight.

Levi sat next to Isaac looking annoyed, seemingly upset about being ripped off by the shooting range owner.

"You actually let that boss go?"

“There’s nothing I can do about it. I didn’t intend to do this to him anyway, after all, it’s a small business,” Isaac said, taking a sip of his rice wine. “But the fact that he managed to swindle money from me is nothing. That’s something that boss can brag about for a year.”

"Tch, if it were me, I would definitely beat him up." Levi said with a frown, then glanced at the sunglasses-wearing man drinking next to her, "It's all that guy's fault for coming over and causing trouble, and that Locke too."

The man in sunglasses noticed that someone was looking at him, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, he asked, "Sir, may I ask your name?"

“Rentaro Satomi is a student,” Isaac said. “In exchange, please state your name.”

"Matsuzaki Ginji."

"Really."

Matsuzaki Ginji glanced at Isaac, then looked down at the drink in his glass.

“Mr. Satomi, you are really amazing. I never expected you to be a student.”

"Oh? How so?"

“From the moment I saw you, I noticed you were different from others,” Matsuzaki Ginji said. “You have a bloody scent that you can’t hide no matter what.”

"Very perceptive."

"There are three people with you, including the young lady next to you. Apart from the youngest one, the other two are more or less menacing, but even together they can't match the aura you exude," Matsuzaki Ginji laughed. "To be honest, the aura you exude is frightening to me. You're probably more than just a student."

"Is that so? I thought I was hiding it very well," Isaac said with a smile. "Since you're starting to speculate about my identity, let me guess yours too."

"Ok?"

“A friend of mine is currently doing business with a Japanese yakuza group called Washimine-gumi. I’ve heard that they have a skilled fighter known as ‘Ginji the Slayer of Evil’. I wonder if he has any connection to you, sir?”

"..."

Matsuzaki Ginji turned his head and looked at Isaac seriously, asking, "Who exactly are you?"

“Just an ordinary businessman,” Isaac laughed.

Chapter 667: You Don't Seem Human

“I’ve heard that the team seems to be doing some collaboration with the Russians lately.” Matsuzaki Ginji adjusted his sunglasses. “Who are you? Their translator?”

“The translator is the guy in the work clothes next to me; I’m just their guarantor,” Isaac laughed.

"It's a bit worrying that a terrifying guy like you is here."

“At least the ‘Moscow Hotel’ intended to cooperate with you, and I’m just a guarantor; I won’t pose any threat to you,” Isaac said. “Besides, I’m not very interested in your kind of small organization.”

"Really……"

Matsuzaki Ginji remained skeptical of Isaac's words.

Although he didn't know the boy, the killing intent emanating from him made even a man with blood on his hands feel a chill. He didn't know if he could stop this person if he had any schemes against the Eagle Peak Group.

The girl who had been standing next to Matsuzaki Ginji sat down next to Isaac and asked him, who was still drinking sake, "Is Satomi-kun a student at Shirasaki Junior High School?"

"Yes."

She probably found out from Ayana; at least Isaac's public identity is that of a student at Shirasaki Middle School.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were underage before I gave you alcohol," she said apologetically.

"Oh, it's nothing," Isaac said nonchalantly. "I even thought the rice wine wasn't strong enough."

"My name is Yukio." The girl always had a warm and comforting smile on her face. "Satomi-kun, you lived in America when you were little, right? Are you getting used to life in Japan?"

"There's nothing I'm not used to; everyone is very friendly."

"That's good."

The festival was drawing to a close, and snowflakes began to fall. Winter seemed to have arrived unexpectedly early this year.

Ginji stood up and said, "Miss, catching a cold can affect your health. It's time to go back."

"Ok."

Yukio nodded, stood up from her seat, and bid farewell to everyone.

"See you all next time!"

After saying goodbye to the two, Isaac checked the time and realized it was time for him to go back. He had had a pretty good time at the festival.

There was one last thing to take care of that evening.

--------

Isaac was having a great time, but some people weren't.

For example, there's a classmate named Yuya Yamase.

A car is currently parked in front of his door; he plans to leave the Shirasaki area overnight.

Since Isaac came to Shirasaki Middle School, everything has changed and is beginning to deviate from the direction he had planned.

"I wonder if we can escape."

Sitting in the car, he stared blankly at the passport in his hand.

His plan was to leave the Shirasaki area first. According to those people, he probably wouldn't even be able to stay in Japan. It would be best to go abroad for a while to avoid trouble.

Yuya Yamase didn't know exactly what kind of person Isaac was, but he was definitely not a good guy.

As the engine started, the driver set off into the night, sitting in the back seat, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, out of his sight, several snipers were making phone calls.

"Boss, the target is moving towards Fourth Street."

“I understand.” Isaac nodded. “Shoot out the tires at the intersection.”

"learn."

After he finished speaking, he raised his sniper rifle and aimed it at the car.

Yuya Yamase was still thinking about something in the car when he suddenly heard a loud bang as he turned a corner. The car lost its balance and crashed into the wall.

"what!!!"

Bang! !

After the car was hit, the hood was lifted off and the engine started emitting thick smoke.

"Cough cough... What happened?"

Yuya Yamase was still a little dizzy from the impact. He managed to open his eyes and found the driver unconscious in the driver's seat.

He stumbled and opened the car door, escaping, but the car in front of him was clearly no longer drivable.

He took a breath of fresh air, looking somewhat disheveled, as his body was now covered in dust.

"Yamaze-kun, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"!"

He was startled when he heard that familiar voice.

Turning around, he saw Isaac standing in front of him through the bright moonlight.

"Sato... Satomi?"

"Where are you planning to go so late?" Isaac asked with a smile, walking slowly toward him.

Yuya Yamase initially wanted to retreat, but the clever man realized that he probably couldn't escape given the current situation, so he stood still and waited for Isaac to come.

"Aren't you going to run?"

"I think there's no way to escape."

"You're very smart. May I ask you a few questions?"

"go ahead."

“Then the first question,” Isaac said, “you must be the mastermind behind Ayana Fujisawa being bullied at school.”

"..."

Yuya Yamase didn't expect Isaac to ask this question right away, but he didn't hesitate and said directly, "You're right. The main reason why Ayana Fujisawa is bullied at school is because of me."

"Sure enough."

How did you find out?

“A little investigation will tell you,” Isaac laughed. “Fifteen years ago, your mother was kicked out of the Fujisawa family because she was pregnant with you, and eventually committed suicide because of excessive worry.”

"...Looks like you really did a good job investigating." Yuya Yamase said with a carefree laugh.

"Not only that, I also discovered that Fujisawa Ayana's father, Fujisawa Soichiro, had a record of secretly meeting with you. You can't deny any of that, right?"

"Yes."

He leaned against the wall; the car accident had broken several of his bones.

“You know what? Ever since I was little, I’ve been able to read a person’s mind and know what they’re thinking. This allows me to control the atmosphere of the class from the shadows.” Yamase Yuya narrowed his eyes slightly. “Whether it’s Tokiwa Ren’s twisted love for Ayana due to her physical condition, or Shibuya Mao and the others’ hatred for Ayana, these can be achieved with just a little manipulation.”

Bullying stems from the atmosphere, a fact many people know, and Yamase Yuya in front of them is indeed the kind of person who can subtly influence the atmosphere of the entire class.

If Miho Tsukamoto hadn't reminded her to investigate this person, she might have completely overlooked him.

“Including the way Ayana is neglected by her father at home,” Yuya Yamase continued. “As long as my grades at school are good enough and I perform well enough when he comes to see me, he will appreciate me more and more and look down on Ayana even more.”
