Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

Chaos flicked his white coat, blowing away the dust around him, and saw the scene before him.

The bird Gastrea had already begun to disappear, splattering on the ground, and two people were standing on its carcass.

A white-haired young man wearing a baseball cap and a little girl wearing a magician's hat.

Shojiro Tsurugi and his initiator, Sumirei.

"It's really scary that Gastrea can be found in the city."

Akira Tsurugi gave a bitter laugh, stepped off the Gastrea carcass, and looked at Chaos in front of him.

"Miss, could you tell me what happened?"

Chaos: "..."

"I just heard someone say that a cursed child wearing a white coat suddenly killed a middle-aged man, and then Gastrea burst out of the man's body."

Akimaru Tsuzawa pulled down the brim of his baseball cap and looked at Chaos with a sharp gaze.

"The person they're talking about is you, isn't it?"

Chaos remained silent in the face of Akimaru Tsuzawa's question.

“Shōma…”

"what happened?"

Fuse Midori tugged at Tsuzawa Akima's clothes, and then he turned to look at Fuse Midori, only to find that there was fear in the other's eyes.

“Shōma… that’s not the cursed child, I can sense it… she’s different from us, she’s a Gastrea, no, she’s a being even more terrifying than a Gastrea.”

"What!?"

Akimaro Niizawa's expression also changed.

He looked up and suddenly found that Chaos, who had been standing a few meters away from him, had suddenly appeared in front of him, staring at him with his red eyes.

'when……'

He was, after all, a top 500 expert in IP rankings, and there were few who were stronger than him. But Chaos was able to arrive in front of him before he even noticed, which was enough to shock him.

"you……"

Before Chaos could ask anything, Akimaru Tsuzawa already understood.

Tendo-style Combat Technique, Form 3, Number 9: Rain Bird Cage

He stepped forward and stomped on Chaos's foot, then twisted his body and slammed his shoulder into Chaos's body.

Chaos, struck by the tremendous impact, leaned backward, but instead of falling or flying off, he remained standing on the ground, only his waist was bent backward.

Chaos tried to straighten his back, but Akira's next move was already upon him.

Tendo-style Combat Technique, Form Two, Eleventh Step: Hidden Zen. Crying Pavilion

He leaped up, spun around, and kicked Chaos in the head with increasing force.

Chaos was kicked flying, crashing into a shop on the side of the street and shattering the shop's windows.

"...Did you defeat her?"

Sawa Akira wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

For some reason, Chaos had put immense pressure on him just now. Even though he had participated in many dangerous missions and killed countless Gastrea, he felt a slight tremor when facing Chaos.

She looks like a young girl, but she gives off such a dangerous vibe.

Just as Akimaro Tsuzawa was about to step forward to check, shards of glass suddenly flew out from in front of him.

Akimaru Tsuzawa couldn't help but cover his eyes with his hand to block the broken glass, but when he removed his hand again, he saw the scene he least wanted to see.

Chaos was unharmed except for some dust on his body.

"...I clearly used all my strength in those moves just now."

Akimaru Niizawa, sweating profusely, assumed a fighting stance.

brush!

Chaos, who was in front of him, suddenly disappeared after tilting his head, and then instantly appeared behind Akimaro Sagisawa.

"Varied……"

Bang! !

Feeling a violent jolt in his head, Akimaro Kisaki protected his head with his elbow when he came to his senses, but he still felt dizzy and lightheaded.

Akimaro Tsubasa, who was kicked away, saw clearly the kick that Chaos had launched at him from its airspace.

'Hidden Zen. Crying at the Shore!? Why can't she do that too?'

"Shōma!!"

Before he could finish thinking, Busu-sui, who was in the distance, loudly reminded him.

Chaos appeared in front of him in an instant, and before Akira could even stand up straight, she had already stepped on his toes.

Upon sensing a familiar scene, Akimaro Niizawa's pupils instantly contracted.

'Could it be!?'

Bang! !

Chaos's shoulder slammed into his chest.

"puff--"

Sho Sawa coughed up a mouthful of blood.

His consciousness was blurred, but one thing remained clear to him.

The girl in front of him only needed to glance at him to learn the moves he used.

Seeing that Akimaru Sawa was about to fall, Chaos still didn't say a word, and slowly raised his hand to deliver the final blow.

Swish! !

A black shadow flew out and attacked Chaos.

However, none of the blades formed by these shadowy figures hit him. In the instant they attacked, Chaos did a somersault to dodge all the attacks.

Isaac had already arrived at the scene and helped up Akimaro Nagasawa, who was about to collapse.

"Are you okay?"

"Satomi... Thank goodness, you've finally come."

Akimaru Niizawa spoke in a weak voice, his finger trembling as he pointed at Chaos.

"Be careful, this guy... is very dangerous..."

"Thank you for reminding me."

Isaac gently placed the razor-sharp grinder on the ground and looked at Chaos in front of him.

For some reason, Isaac could sense a very strange aura emanating from the girl in front of him.

It's as if we're connected by blood.

When Chaos saw Isaac, his usually calm expression finally changed slightly.

She parted her lips slightly and said in a soft voice:

"I've finally seen you, Father."

Isaac: ? ? ? ?

Chapter 1210: Anyway, I Have a Baby

What did you just call me?

"Father."

"...Isn't this your usual tactic of 'if you can't beat someone, you have to call them 'dad'?" Isaac looked at Chaos in front of him speechlessly.

He had only rushed from his company to the scene to deal with the problem after hearing that Gastrea had come to the city to cause damage.

Upon arriving there, what they found was a gastrulosaur that had already been killed, and Akimaro Shoji, who appeared to be severely injured.

The one who made the move was a girl who looked only sixteen years old.

Isaac had some understanding of Akimaru Shoji's fighting prowess. In the Tokyo area, it would be hard to find a more powerful fighter than him. Even against a Gastrea like Stage 4, which could easily destroy a city, he could put up a fight.

He really didn't expect to be beaten so badly.

What he never expected was that this seemingly dangerous girl would call him father.

This is utter nonsense. Not to mention that someone like Isaac, who has a very disciplined lifestyle and is still a virgin, would never father a child outside of marriage, even if he did have an irregular lifestyle, it's impossible for a man in his early twenties to have a sixteen-year-old daughter.

It's ridiculous just thinking about it.

"Miss, trying to get close to her won't work."

“I have no intention of trying to get close to you,” Chaos said calmly. “You are my father, Rentaro Satomi.”

"No, my name isn't Satomi Rentaro..."

"Satomi! Hurry up and do it!"

With the help of Midori Fuse, Akimasa Tsuzawa stood up shakily and shouted anxiously at Isaac, who was confronting Chaos in front of him.

"This guy... has been getting stronger since the start of the battle. If this drags on too long, it'll be troublesome!!"

"I know."

Isaac certainly knew what Akimaru Tsuzawa was talking about.

Even standing right in front of Chaos, Isaac could feel the ever-increasing energy within her, an energy that he perceived through his breath.

It is no exaggeration to say that the energy within Chaos was even greater than that of the first Stage 5 Gastrea, 'Scorpio', that he had encountered.

Isaac was quite interested in how such a massive amount of energy could be packed into the petite body of a young girl.

Satomi!

"I understand. Also, that's not my name."

Isaac sighed and slowly walked towards Chaos.
