As for what price to pay, that was not within his consideration.

253~Wendy's Collapsed Version of the Ghost Beetle

Stepping on tartar sand.

I am bored...

I should have known not to ask that Raiden Mei to help. I can do it myself...

Wendy was wandering around a place called Talingsha alone, looking bored.

In order to prevent Morax and Wendy from asking her to cause trouble for Mei Raiden, Wendy left Inazuma Castle alone and came to Takanazawa.

She originally thought there would be something fun here, but it turned out that there were hardly any people in this damn place, let alone any fun things.

"Go! White-striped evil ghost——"

"Go ahead! Nimble Ninja—"

Just then, a sound coming from not far ahead attracted Wendy's attention.

Judging from the sounds, one of the two voices belongs to a child, and the other to a young man.

White-striped demon? Nimble ninja? What is this?

Wendy was stunned by these two confusing names and had no idea what they meant.

Even so, Wendy, who was extremely bored, still wanted to go over and see what was going on. No matter what it was, as long as it was fun, it was fine.

"Ah... my clever ninja! I've lost seven...seven times in a row..."

"Great! I win again—"

Before Wendy could walk over, the two men seemed to have already decided the winner.

What on earth are they doing?

Listening to the two voices, Wendy became more and more curious.

A guy with horns? And what the hell are these two purple things?

Soon, Wendy saw the two people who made the sound and two strange purple creatures between them.

"Who?"

Just as Wendy was staring at the two strange things in confusion, the man with red horns suddenly turned his head and looked at Wendy.

"What are you doing?" Wendy didn't think about hiding herself. When she saw that she was discovered, she walked straight towards the two people. She really wanted to know what these two people were playing.

It turned out to be a little girl...

After seeing Wendy's appearance clearly, Aratake Ichito breathed a sigh of relief silently. He thought it was the Tenryo Bugyo who came to arrest him.

Although the robberies were not committed by him, but by another green ghost with green horns, in order to investigate the reason, he admitted everything to the soldiers of the Tenryo Bugyo who mistakenly thought he was the one who robbed, and then fled here with the ghost grandmother who raised him and the members of the Aratake faction.

Originally, he wanted to escape to the opposite Yayun Island and make plans, but the evil spirits there were seriously polluted, so he could only stay under the nose of the Kujo family army - Tadashi Sha was here, and then find a suitable opportunity to investigate the matter of the blue ghost.

"Hey? What are you guys playing? And what are these two things?" When Aradaki Ichito came to his senses, Wendy had already come to him and repeated the question again.

"They are not things, they are called ghost beetles." Just when Ara Taki Ichito wanted to say something, the child opposite him spoke up and answered Wendy's doubts, "If you put them together, they will fight each other until the winner is decided, and this is called fighting bugs--"

"So that's how it is. Then...how can I get these bugs?" Wendy nodded as if she understood, and thought it was quite interesting and wanted to give it a try.

"They usually stay in trees, but sometimes they stay on the ground. You can find them if you walk around here. They are easy to find." The little boy continued to answer Wendy's question.

"No, no, no, it's not that simple. If you just pick one at random, you'll definitely be easily defeated. So, you have to judge their fighting power based on their size and patterns. In addition, the mood of the beetle is also very important. I...eh?" Ichito Aradaki, who finally found an opportunity to interrupt and show off, suddenly found that Wendy had already started looking for beetles around when he was halfway through his words. She completely ignored what he was saying, which made him a little angry but helpless. "Huh - this little girl... I'm sure she'll be defeated by me soon. Daisuke, wait for me, I'll find another beetle to compete with you."

"I'll wait for you, Brother Ichito—" Daisuke, who had won consecutive victories, was obviously in a good mood and nodded heavily towards Arotaki Ichito.

This... seems too small...

Thinking back to the ghost beetle she had just seen at the little boy's place, Wendy looked at a small ghost beetle lying on the tree in front of her, shook her head, and continued walking to the next tree.

Eh? This one looks good...

Wendy came to the next tree and soon found a larger ghost beetle, so she took it back to prepare for the insect fight.

Soon after Wendy came back with the ghost beetle, Ara Taki Ichito also returned to the place where he was fighting insects with the ghost beetle he found. In order to avenge Wendy for not listening to him just now, Ara Taki Ichito planned to fight with the ghost beetle she found first so as to laugh at her. He could see that the ghost beetle Wendy found was very timid.

"Little girl, it seems that you have also found the ghost beetle, come and compete with me--"

As he said this, Aratake Ichito placed the ghost beetle he found on top of two wooden boxes that were placed together for fighting insects.

"Don't call me little girl, call me Wendy--"

Without paying much attention to Aratake Ichito, Wendy also put the ghost beetle she found on the wooden box. She thought the ghost beetle she found should be good.

"Wendy? Then you can call me Aratake Ichito. Come on, the mountain mover—"

After briefly saying his name, Ichito Aratake gave the order to attack the beetle he had found.

"Kill it--" Wendy, who couldn't think of a name for a moment, did not name her own beetle like Ara Taki Ichito did. She just followed his example and gave the order to attack the beetle.

But for some reason, the ghost beetle that Wendy found turned around and ran away in shame before it even had a chance to fight with the ghost beetle that Araki was fighting with, which left Wendy speechless.

Wendy: "..."

"Hahaha - little girl... the ghost beetle you found is no good."

Seeing this situation, Arawaki Ichito covered his stomach and laughed out loud, even tears came out.

“Brother Ichito, please stop laughing at me.” Daisuke couldn’t stand it anymore, and he went on to comfort Wendy, “Miss Wendy, go find another one. It’s normal that you didn’t find a good one the first time.”

In response, Wendy remained silent and continued to search for the ghost beetle around.

No, no, it's too small...

This...seems to be very timid...

Still no, damn...

After searching for a long time, Wendy, with a frown on her face, still couldn't find a ghost beetle that satisfied her, which made her very anxious.

No matter what, she has to get her revenge.

Why don't I just go back and beat that guy up... He definitely can't beat me...

Wendy became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and wanted to go back and beat Arotaki Ichito up to calm herself down, but she held back because she still wanted to beat him in the insect fight.

Hmm...wait, maybe I can give them some Honkai energy?

Suddenly, Wendy came up with a good idea.

"Aratake Ichito, come on, fight my ghost beetle again--"

Just when Aratake Ichito's Beetleworm was fighting fiercely with Daisuke's Beetleworm, Wendy's voice suddenly came from behind Aratake Ichito.

"Wow! Then, then, then...what is that? Such a big...ghost beetle?"

Hearing the voice, Daisuke subconsciously looked behind Arataki Ichito, and then what appeared there stunned him.

I saw a ghost beetle that was bigger than a human and had strange patterns on its body coming towards Araki Ichido, while Wendy was sitting on it very leisurely.

“Is it really that big?” Seeing Daisuke’s surprised look, Arotaki Ichito turned his head in confusion, and then he was also frightened, “Wow wow wow…are you kidding me??? How can it be…so big?!”

PS: I changed some of Arotaki Ichito's plot. And then... I really can't post pictures anymore. My posting function has been banned. I don't know if there will be a chance to release me like last time in the future——

254~Ara Taki Ichito: Are you still human?

"Why is the ghost beetle you found so big?" Standing up and looking at the huge ghost beetle in disbelief, Ara Taki Ichito felt like he was dreaming. He had never seen a ghost beetle of such a large size before. This was really too outrageous.

"Don't talk so much nonsense! Come, call out your bug and let it fight with me—"

Seeing how surprised Aratake Ichito and Daisuke were, Wendy, who was sitting on the back of the demon beetle that had mutated due to Honkai energy, was obviously very pleased, and quickly asked Aratake Ichito to call out his bugs to avenge them.

"This, this, this... what the hell is this fight... How can my ghost beetle beat this super giant bug of yours..." At this time, Ara Taki Ito was almost in tears. He knew very well that the ghost beetle in his hand could not possibly beat Wendy's super giant ghost beetle that she found from nowhere.

And not to mention that the ghost beetle in his hand is no match, even if an adult human comes, he probably won't be able to defeat Wendy's super giant ghost beetle. It's simply impossible to beat it.

But for some reason, looking at the huge ghost beetle in front of him with some strange patterns all over its body, Ara Taki Ito always felt that it would be a little dangerous.

But if a little girl can sit on its back, there shouldn't be any problem...right?

To be honest, Arotaki Ichito really wanted to sit on its back like Wendy, but he always felt something was wrong and didn't dare to get closer.

"Sister Wendy, can I get closer to take a look at it?" Unlike Aratake Ichito's worries, Daisuke wanted to take a closer look at this super giant beetle. But because this beetle was too big, Daisuke was worried that it would hurt itself, so he asked Wendy for her opinion. He believed that Wendy had a way to make it obedient.

For Daisuke, such a huge beetle is a great topic for him to talk about with his friends. When he mentions it, he will definitely attract envious glances from his friends.

"No problem, it doesn't matter if you sit up—"

Recalling that the little human boy had just answered some questions for her, Wendy agreed to his request without much thought.

"Thank you, Sister Wendy..." After getting Wendy's consent, Daisuke immediately ran towards the giant beetle and began to look around it very carefully.

"She was little sister Wendy just now, how come she has become elder sister Wendy now? Will she become big sister Wendy in a while?" Aradaki Ichito suddenly felt that his position in Daisuke's heart was greatly challenged by Wendy.

"Arataki Ichito, I won this insect battle, you've already lost--" Seeing that Arataki Ichito had not taken out his Ghost Beetle to fight with her own Ghost Beetle, Wendy unilaterally declared that she had won the final victory.

No matter what, she still has to get her place back.

"Tsk - you're lucky this time, you found such a big beetle. That's right, I lost this bug fighting competition." Aradaki Ichito, who was crossing his arms across his chest, did not deny that he lost to Wendy in the bug fighting game. He was not someone who could not afford to lose.

but...

He must get back at the plate in other games!

"Wendy, how about we arm wrestle? Let's see who of us is stronger. What do you think? Are you willing to accept it?" After thinking for a while, Aradaki Ichito changed the game. He felt that he would definitely not lose to Wendy in this aspect.

And for him, this is not bullying. He is just making a suggestion. It is up to Wendy whether to agree or not. He will not force Wendy to make a choice.

If Wendy doesn't agree, he will find a new game until Wendy agrees.

"Brother Ichito, you are bullying others again. How can Sister Wendy defeat you?" Ichito Arataki's shamelessness made Daisuke, who was carefully watching the bottom of the giant beetle's feet, unable to bear it anymore.

"Arm wrestling? Okay—" Without thinking twice, Wendy immediately accepted Ichito Aradaki's arm wrestling game.

She quickly jumped off the back of the ghost beetle, and then came to the two wooden boxes where the insect fighting had just taken place. She wanted to play an arm wrestling game with Arakaki Ichito here.

Just like that... agreed?

He thought Wendy would call him shameless, but she agreed without even thinking about it. This surprised Arawaki Ichito very much. He never thought that Wendy would agree so readily.

Could it be...that there is something fishy going on here?

Never mind, she's just a little girl, why should I be afraid of her...

Shaking his head, Arataki Ichito decided not to think too much about it. After warming up himself, he walked to the wooden box.

"Three, two, one, start--" Arotaki Ichito quickly got ready and started counting.

“Ugh…ah…ugh…ah…”

On the wooden box, no matter how hard Aratake Ichito tried, he just couldn't pull Wendy's hand down, and it could even be said that it didn't move at all.

At this moment, Aradaki Ichito had used up all his strength, and his face looked extremely ferocious, as if he had been holding his breath for a long time. Wendy, who was sitting opposite him, looked relaxed and calm.

This little girl...how come she has so much strength? ? ? ?

Staring at Wendy in front of him with some disbelief, Aratake Ichito realized that he had been careless. He had never imagined that a little girl could possess such terrifying strength.

But now that he has come this far, he will not give up easily. He will fight until...

"Ahhh-"

boom--

Before he could cheer himself up, Arawaki Ichito was suddenly pulled away by a terrifying force and crashed into the small hill next to him, raising a large cloud of dust.

"Brother Yidou——"

Seeing this happen, Daisuke didn't care about the giant ghost beetle and quickly ran to the hillside to check on Ichito's situation.

"Ahem...I can't die, I can't die..."

Before Daisuke could run there, Arataki Ichito's figure gradually appeared in the dust, accompanied by a violent cough.

"Are you still a human? How come you are so strong?" After tidying up his clothes, Aratake Ichito jumped back to Wendy's side, but this time he was looking at Wendy with disbelief on his face.

He never imagined that a little girl could be so strong.

255~Wendy: Playing hide and seek? Okay——

"Human? I am not such a weak creature!"

Wendy looked very disdainful of Aratake Ichito's words.

"Huh? You're not...human?"
