Zongman: Redemption of Life in the Other World

"one day one Night."

Dongfang You walked to the bedside and handed her a glass of water.

Kogawa Asuka took the cup of water, took a few sips, and felt his throat feel a little better.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, this is what I should do."

Dongfang You looked at her, his eyes full of concern.

"How do you feel now?"

Kougawa Asuka shook his head gently: "I'm fine, just a little tired."

"This is normal, you lost a lot of blood and need to rest.

Dongfang You comforted.

Kogawa Asuka nodded, was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at Dongfang You with his watery eyes full of gratitude.

"Thank you, Dongfang-kun. If you hadn't shown up in time, I'm afraid I would be dead now."

She is not a heartless person. On the contrary, she knows how to be grateful and knows who is good to her.

Although Kogawa Asuka had only met Dongfang You once, she could truly feel the kindness of this new member towards her, so she was willing to make friends with him.

Hearing her words, Dongfang You smiled noncommittally, and then asked: "Before, you kept shouting the name of 'Edwin Black' in your sleep. Was he the one who killed your parents?"

Kogawa Asuka gnashed his teeth and said, “That night ten years ago, it was Edwin who massacred my entire family.

My grandparents died at his hands, and my father and brother were tortured to death by him."

She clenched her fists until her knuckles turned white.

"So, that's why you keep accepting missions to exorcise demons and make yourself stronger?"

"Yes."

Kougawa Asuka's tone was filled with resolute hatred.

"But my current desire for revenge is nothing but a foolish dream! Therefore, I must improve my strength as quickly as possible and wait for the opportunity to avenge myself."

……

Before they knew it, the two people who had only met once started chatting.

Kouga Asuka suddenly asked, "By the way, why did you join Taimanin?"

“To make this world a better place.”

Dongfang You's answer was crisp and clear, but it left Kogawa Asuka stunned.

Compared with his wish, my revenge is nothing but dregs and not worth mentioning at all!

Dongfang You saw the shock in her eyes and smiled slightly, "In a sense, getting rid of the Undead King is also a necessary path to world peace."

He spoke lightly, but it made Asuka Kogawa's blood boil.

She seemed to see a beautiful future, a prosperous scene that made people yearn for it.

Kogawa Asuka clenched her jade hands and promised solemnly: "If you need help from others on the way to realizing your wish, I will do my best."

"Ah."

Dongfang You smiled and nodded: "We are not familiar with each other's personalities yet, but we have become friends initially. I hope we can get along well in the future."

"Okay, it's almost time. I have to go. You should have a good rest."

Kougawa Asuka nodded and watched him leave.

The door closed gently and she withdrew her gaze, but the corner of her eye inadvertently caught sight of the samurai sword on the bedside table.

It is pitch black all over, with a simple yet sharp shape, emitting a cold glow. It is Dongfang You's Red Night Blade.

"Oh no, did you forget to take Dongfang-kun's knife?"

Kogawa Asuka's expression changed slightly. He quickly put on a white shirt, picked up the Red Night Blade and chased after him.

She was barefoot and ran out of the college gate along the corridor with her white feet, but she could not find any trace of Dongfang You.

"Asuka?"

Just as Kougawa Asuka was about to return to the academy, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Yatsu Shizu, who was wearing a white coat and glasses, was looking at her in confusion: "Why... did you run out barefoot?"

Kogawa Asuka lowered her head, a look of shame on her pretty face: "Sorry, I forgot to return the knife to Dongfangjun."

"Oh?"

Yajin Ziliu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the Red Night Blade in her arms.

Suddenly, a trace of jealousy welled up in my heart.

Okay, okay, I’m giving the knife to someone else after just meeting them once.

Bah~ scumbag.

Yazushi cursed in her heart, but her expression remained calm as she said softly, "It's okay, we are all comrades anyway. You can use his weapon and return it to him when we meet again."

"Well, that's all it can do."

Kougawa Asuka nodded slightly, and at the same time held the Red Night Blade tighter in his arms.

……

After leaving Wu Che Academy, Dongfang You came to the Akiyama family mansion in Wu Che Town.

He heard from Igawa Sakura that Rinko Akiyama had not been out on missions during this period, but stayed at home every day.

As for what they are doing, no one knows.

Looking at the closed door in front of him, Dongfang You raised his hand and knocked twice.

Soon, a familiar voice came from inside the door.

"Who is it?"

Then, with a creak, the door opened.

"sister..."

Akiyama Tatsuro widened his eyes in surprise: "Brother-in-law, why are you here?"

The brother-in-law behaved very well this time. The call of "brother-in-law" instantly shortened the distance between him and Dongfang You.

Dongfang You was not happy for long because of being called brother-in-law, as he was soon attracted by the injury on Tatsuro Akiyama's face.

He frowned and asked, "What's wrong with your face?"

There was a bruise on the right cheekbone of Tatsuro Akiyama's face, obviously he had been beaten.

"Uh..."

Akiyama Tatsuro scratched his head awkwardly and said with a wry smile, "There was an accident while carrying out the mission a few days ago. We were attacked by a cannibal."

Recalling the scene again, he still felt a lingering fear.

That scene was truly horrifying.

Tatsuro Akiyama even forgot the pain and was left with only despair.

The moment the cannibal pounced on him, he completely lost the ability to think, and his only thought was that he didn't want to die.

If Rinko Akiyama hadn't appeared in time to save him, he would have died in the monster's mouth long ago.

"Mission successful?"

Dongfang You asked.

"It failed because of me..."

Akiyama Tatsuro clenched his fists, a deep sense of self-blame filling his chest, "If I hadn't held you back, my sister wouldn't have been hurt."

"What did you say? Rinko is hurt!"

Dongfang You looked shocked, "Is it serious?"

Tatsuro Akiyama shook his head and his voice became noticeably lower.

"She is not in danger of death, but... one of her arms is broken and her body has suffered a huge trauma. She will not be able to recover in a short time."

Hearing this, Dongfang You's whole body trembled violently, and the magic power in his body began to stir uncontrollably.

Rumble~

The air around him seemed to explode. The sky, which had been clear just a moment ago, was suddenly covered with dark clouds and thunder roared.

Akiyama Rinko was immediately hit by this wave of magic power and took several steps back. She looked at Dongfang You with a pale face, "Brother-in-law, calm down. My sister is still resting."

Chapter 108 Masked Woman

The next moment, Dongfang You put away his magical aura.

His figure flashed and disappeared.

When he appeared again, he had already entered the house where Rinko Akiyama was.

Looking at the girl lying unconscious on the bed, Dongfang You's eyes narrowed slightly and his pupils shrank suddenly.

At this time, Rinko Akiyama's face was as pale as paper, her lips were cracked and white, and her whole face was bloodless.

Especially the right arm, which was horrible.

Her skin was torn into pieces. If the doctor had not bandaged her in time, Rinko Akiyama's arm would probably have been chopped off.

"Rinzi..."

Dongfang You murmured to himself, his heart felt as if it was pricked by a needle and it hurt so much.

"cough--"

Akiyama Rinko spat out a ball of blood, her cheeks twitched slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes: "Yu...Yu-kun..."

"Don't talk, I will treat you now."

Dongfang You held her wrist and transferred the life force into Rinko Akiyama's body, repairing her damaged tendons and flesh.

However, using the life force of Wood Release to repair others is far more difficult than repairing oneself, and it consumes a huge amount of energy.

It took him a full quarter of an hour to finally repair Rinko Akiyama's broken tendons.

"Whoo~"

After a long sigh, Dongfang You let go of Rinko Akiyama's wrist, sat next to her, and observed her condition.

"Brother-in-law, my sister's injury..."

Tatsuro Akiyama asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, Rinko's injury isn't a big deal."

At this moment, Dongfang You's mood gradually calmed down. "In three days at most, she will be able to recover."

"Really...really?"

Akiyama Tatsuro's expression brightened.

Although he was somewhat skeptical about this statement, looking at Dongfang You's confident look, it should be true.

Moreover, Akiyama Rinko's complexion was much rosier than before, and her breathing gradually stabilized.

The cracked skin and flesh on the right arm healed quickly and the scabs fell off.

Looking at this scene, Tatsuro Akiyama was extremely shocked: "This is too amazing!!"

You know, Rinko Akiyama's right arm's bones, flesh, meridians, etc. suffered serious injuries throughout the day.

Even the best doctor in the Taimanin organization said that Akiyama Rinko's right arm was basically useless.

However, Dongfang You not only healed his wounds completely, but even restored his broken bones and muscles to their original state.

This is simply unbelievable!

"Okay, Taro, you go out first. I have something to say to Youjun." Rinko Akiyama suddenly said.
