Zongman, can you be immortal with me for the rest of your life?

Kazuma said as he raised a finger.

"Think about it, if they still have some sense, then they're victims. I can let them continue to exist and maintain their sanity, and maybe even bring them to meet their parents. Isn't that kind? So what's wrong with them doing a little labor for me?"

Kazuma raised a second finger as he spoke.

"But if they lose their rationality, they will become monsters that will harm people. They haven't harmed anyone yet, so what's wrong with me capturing these monsters and using them as laborers?

Furthermore, if they are locked up for a while, even losing consciousness, they can become valuable vengeful spirit material. They can be stored as food reserves, or used in future spells that require soul sacrifices. It's quite convenient."

After hearing this, the doll that could still make some noises completely stopped making any sound and became completely silent.

"It's okay, you're not a human being anymore, you can exploit me however you want, I'm just curious about what you think.

By the way, I suggest naming them the Cursed Legion. Those who join the Foundation in the future won't have to worry about death, as their souls can continue to fight for justice."

"Then no one would dare to join the Foundation!

Besides, what can I think? I don't have a distinct personality like you. To you, those who can't be your friends are enemies. Even if their lifestyle doesn't suit you, you have already sentenced them to death. You keep getting stronger just to be able to control the life and death of those people.

Kirito's idea is that he will never treat anyone as his enemy. Everyone is his friend. Even if he disagrees with something or someone stands on the opposite side of him, he will always think about others.

Generally speaking, he was more likely to be recognized as a good person when he was like that before, but living like that was too tiring.

For me, I take things as they come and I ignore things I can’t stand. That’s it.

If I hadn't met you two, both of you wanting to change the world, being a rich man would have been enough for me."

As he spoke, he walked out of the factory, intentionally not chatting at this time and focusing on facing the problem. Kazuma suddenly looked back at him in a strange manner.

"Where are the two policemen guarding the door?"

"About five minutes ago, when we started talking to the air in their eyes, they drove off."

Kerry shrugged.

"Oh, that's good. This town doesn't look like a good place to be at night. Ordinary people coming here won't be able to see or touch anything. There's really no point."

Kazuma thought this was a good thing.

Now the problem of kidnapping the little ghosts has been solved. The second existing problem is the number of monsters and ghosts in their town. Why is the concentration of ghosts 5000% higher than that in other cities?

With the existence of such a large number of ghosts, the local population is suspected to be in dire straits. We need to find the reasons while at the same time arresting the ghosts that can be arrested and eliminating those that can be eliminated.

But before that, a few people decided to go and see Xiao Wei first.

Neither Kerry nor the other man left Yujiro's contact information, so they didn't know what was going on over there. They didn't want to fight now, so they planned to first confirm the status of the two little ghosts.

After all, there is a strange thing here, that is why Xiaowei smells fragrant, but Xiaoyao does not give them this feeling.

Thus begins a parkour game that's comparable to the Marathon around the Indian City Swamp.

After a while, the two of them rushed back to the farmland.

But before he could get close, he heard the sounds of fierce fighting.

"Aha! This is my first time fighting a ghost! Can you, a thing that can't speak, feel my love for you?"

"Ping!"

In the field at night, a pair of scissors glowing red closed with a loud noise, and Hanma Yujiro jumped out of the center of the scissors to avoid it.

The fist covered with Kree's blood swung and hit a giant finger, and the monster in the air also floated back slightly.

At this time, behind Yujiro was Xiaoyao who was lying on the ground, and Xiaowei who was protecting Xiaoyao.

As Kerry and the other man got closer, they saw the true face of the strange thing.

It was like my second uncle's big hand was floating in a dark mist, trying to cushion everyone who passed by.

However, the hand was about two meters in size, and although it was called a hand, it did not have five fingers. It had six thick fingers, and the leftmost and rightmost "thumbs and little fingers" were actually two thick and strong arms, and the remaining four fingers were arm-like fingers.

And where the palm should be, there is an extremely ferocious big mouth.

The two arms on the left and right were wrapped with red love threads, which were finally tightly wrapped around the huge pair of scissors. On one side of the big mouth, two small withered corpse hands, one thick and one thin, grew out, irregularly grasping one side of the scissors.

Although the thing didn't look big, it was nothing like the paper tigers that Kerry and his party had encountered before.

The speed of cutting is so fast that even Nagasaki Suyo's cutting line would be defeated, while Gwen would call her an expert.

Even in the face of Yujiro's powerful punch, he was able to simply step back without being seriously injured.

The left and right arms were moving back and forth, and even if it was an empty cut, you could hear that strange sound.

However, the target of that thing seemed to be very clear, which was the two people beside Yujiro. It always fought with Yujiro for a few moves and then changed its moves to cut towards Xiaowei.

373

Chapter 373: The child who cannot return home.

"bump!"

He suddenly pushed away the giant hand that was pointing at Xiao Wei.

"Don't interfere, or I'll attack you along with this thing."

Yujiro seemed to be aware of the flickering flashlight behind him.

He roared towards the rear.

"Very good. If this thing gets away, you can expect us to beat your butt into a sixteen-petal chrysanthemum pattern."

Kazuma, who was about to take action, was angered by Yujiro's roar.

This birth fully demonstrates that if something happens, he will protect you from danger, but don't worry, he is the source of danger.

"I couldn't ask for more."

After hearing his answer, even Kazuma showed a look of disgust.

"You can understand, right? When you encounter a suitable opponent, it's like two lions fighting. If a third lion intervenes, both lions will attack the third party first."

"No, there's actually no such ecosystem. In most cases, a third party intervenes, and the one attacked by the combined forces will be quickly bitten away."

Kerry expressed deep condolences for Yujiro's biology. I don't know where he came up with so many metaphors that seem very real at first glance, but in fact, there is no such thing when you really check.

Could it be one of those cheap pseudo-science videos on Tiktok targeting middle-aged users?

Yujiro, my ignorant young woman.

Without replying to Kerry's words, the old man's face was twisted into a ball, as if saying: Bliss...

Even for Yujiro, this was the first time he was able to hit something so intangible.

Such a novel experience made him feel waves of ecstasy.

And it seemed that because it couldn't cut anything, the giant hand holding the scissors on the opposite side finally changed its target and pointed the red scissors at Yujiro.

And Yujiro also turned around and punched quickly. His face could shatter the bulletproof glass, his fingers could hook the attack of the whale cannon, and the sound could shatter the exterior glass of a hotel. He hadn't encountered such a durable thing in a long time.

This feeling made his hair stand on end, as if all skills and moves could be used without restraint, and he no longer had to worry that the enemy in front of him would fall like a piece of rag with one blow.

The man and the monster fought for more than ten rounds. Every time, Yujiro was able to avoid the scissors, and the monster stood firm.

Too lazy to watch this guy fight, Kerry went over and took Xiaoyao from Xiaowei's side, preparing to move the child to a safe place first.

However, just after Xiaoyao and Xiaowei left, the giant hand holding the scissors paused for a moment, and then retreated into the black fog and disappeared.

"Ok?"

The enemy's sudden departure left Hanma Yujiro stunned, and then he became furious.

"Come out! I order you to come out! Am I, Hanma Yujiro, less valuable than two little brats to you?!"

"boom!"

The dirt road provided for the farmer to walk on was smashed to pieces by this angry thing.

"Are you trying to run away?! Get out! Where are you hiding?!"

He beat the remaining wisps of black air in the air like crazy, as if that would be enough to force the thing out.

"coward!"

The abrupt end of the battle was more violent than a lapse of urgency. Veins bulged on Yujiro's forehead, and the blood vessels under his skin were squeezed to the surface of his body by his muscles. The flames of anger burned, but there was no trace of his opponent around, so in the end he could only burn himself.

Yujiro felt like he had an explosive desire to fight but he had no place to vent it. He could only vent his anger by beating dead things like a beginner in martial arts.

Finally, he knelt in the summer paddy field and howled to the sky.

"Wa ...

Xiao Wei, who was following behind Kerry, looked back in surprise, worry in her big eyes.

"Um, Onmyoji, is your beastman teammate going berserk? Do you want to take care of him?"

"What kind of work are you watching? How did Onmyoji get involved with orcs? Don't worry about it."

Kerry shook his head.

"Hmm? In the isekai novels I read, aren't there people with katanas and onmyoji in those novels?"

Xiao Wei blinked in confusion.

Hearing this, Kazuma's face was filled with grief.

"It's all those guys who write Japanese-style isekai. I've seen a lot of Western fantasy isekai anime lately, and the street scenes are just like the streets of ancient Japan. It's all over.

Little sister, let me tell you, for orthodox otherworldly themes, you should wait until you grow up and try out Dungeons and Dragons or something like that. If that doesn’t work, The Lord of the Rings and A Song of Ice and Fire will also work..."

Just when Kazuma, the otaku, was about to distract Xiaowei with some random topics, and was thinking about whether to invite Kirito over to eat at the buffet in this town.

Kerry suddenly stopped.

Xiao Wei and Kazuma both looked over in surprise.

"She's awake."

Kerry said it succinctly.

"Hmm? Yeah!"

Sure enough, before Kerry finished speaking.

Xiaoyao in Kerry's arms blinked her eyelashes and opened her eyes.

Xiaoyao was so scared that she kicked her hands and feet, perhaps because she saw a strange male face when she opened her eyes.

"Xiaoyao! You finally woke up!"

Xiao Wei's surprised cry came over.

Then she moved closer to Kerry's hand.

"Xiaoyao, it's okay! The older brothers and I saved you! You're safe now! You can go home!"

Xiao Wei touched Xiao Yao excitedly, then jumped for joy.

Xiaoyao in Kerry's arms shook her head, as if she finally remembered the scene before she fell into a coma.

"Big brother, did you save me? Thank you, but can you please help me? My friend Xiaowei went out before me and said she would help me check if it was safe outside, but I couldn't find her. She might have been attacked by monsters too! I hope I can find her!"

Xiaoyao spoke anxiously, her worry evident in her words.

……

The smile on Xiao Wei's face, which was covered with a piece of tape, became stiffer and stiffer.

Kerry and Kazuma who were standing next to them were also stunned.

Then the next moment, both of them reacted differently.

Kazuma grabbed Xiaowei and pulled her to the side.

Kerry frowned and put Xiaoyao down.

Xiaoyao glanced at Kazuma, who was grabbing something in the air next to him, in confusion, then raised her head and looked at Kerry again.

"Is it okay? Big brother, Xiao Wei and I are best friends. She has orange hair and a bow on her head like me, but hers is red. She also has a bunny bag like mine, but her bunny has droopy ears."

"Okay, but it's too dangerous for you to look for it alone. Let us go with you."

Chris looked at Kazuma dragging Xiao Wei away, closed his eyes and opened them again, and most of his doubts were resolved.

He should have discovered it earlier, the familiar smell, the footsteps that were heard at the same moment when the sky darkened from the demon. With their hearing, the unskilled dragging sound of a little kid should have been heard from far around the corner.

Also, it was this guy, Hanma Yujiro, who could see these things as a matter of course, which led to their misjudgment.
