One-way traffic

Suddenly, the sound beside him startled Ren so much that he fell to the ground.

Suddenly, another person appeared in the previously empty living room.

"Hey, relaxing with a book tonight? You know how to enjoy yourself, kid."

A man dressed in outdated dark clothing, with brown hair and golden eyes that still gleamed in the darkness.

Imperial Governor Kakine.

Without anyone noticing, he had already appeared in the living room.

So, did he hear everything I just said?

"Actually, even if you don't say it, I can guess what you're thinking."

"What did you say..."

"You're reading books like 'The Self-Cultivation of Community Leaders'... Do you think I can't see what you're thinking?"

Ren quickly closed the book in his hand and stuffed it into the bookshelf to the side.

"...Um, Mr. Kakine, why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I haven't even taken a shower yet, how can I possibly sleep?"

"Ah... this."

Of course, this statement was purely intentional on Kakine Teitoku's part.

He sat down at a table to the side and brought over two steaming hot drinks.

"This is...coffee? But, but I remember our community already has..."

"This is some coffee I found in the corner of your warehouse. Although it was spoiled, I managed to salvage it and make it drinkable."

Sitting opposite Jin, Kakine Teitoku gently raised his cup and took a heavy sip of coffee.

"…puff!!"

As a result, he almost smashed the cup on the ground because the coffee he made was so bad.

"Are you... alright...?"

"Never mind, let's talk about the coffee when we get back."

Shaking his head, the second person turned his gaze back to Ren.

"I'm telling you, you probably haven't done much of what a leader should do on a regular basis."

"…What does this mean?"

It felt like he was being insulted... Ren couldn't help but frown after hearing these words.

But you should actually think about it carefully.

So far, it seems that I haven't actually participated in any of the Gift Games.

"So, to put it another way, who in your community could actually be mobilized before we arrived?"

"this…"

When asked about this, Ren's expression became extremely complicated.

"...almost exclusively black rabbits."

"And then, because of his identity, that rabbit can't attend the Gift Games often... right?"

The second person snapped his fingers, and a golden light shone on his coffee, causing its sweetness to gradually increase.

That's when it's barely drinkable.

"Well, let me make it clear beforehand, I don't care much about the affairs of your community."

"So, what are you doing now...?"

"Just out of curiosity."

"But, didn't you say you didn't care that much...?"

"Hmm...you really did get something wrong."

pat.

After swallowing all the liquid in the cup, Kakine Teitoku looked at him with a cold smile.

"What I mean by not caring much is that whatever happens to your community is completely irrelevant to me."

"—?!"

"The reason I asked this is simply because I'm curious about what your situation was like before. Anyway, whether things are good or bad in the future, what does it have to do with me? I'm not stupid."

Clearly, these words caused Deren's expression to change instantly.

At least it's clear that he seems to have reached his limit of tolerance for Kakine Teitoku's words.

"If that's the case, then what exactly is your purpose in joining our community?"

"What, didn't that white-haired bastard tell you?"

Kakine Teitoku yawned again.

"The only reason I stayed here is to finish up my business here. Well, I found it convenient to travel with you guys along the way, so I came in."

"So, you mean, your view of our community is completely... insignificant?!"

That's about it.

How could it be... such a man?

Jin's expression gradually became increasingly uneasy. He had initially thought that Kakine Teitoku was the kind of person who appeared cold on the outside but was actually a very kind person at heart.

"You helped us clean the waterways and increased the water output of the Water Tree, creating such a wonderful environment for the children of the community...!"

"Didn't I tell you already? Kid, if I'm going to live here, then I can't tolerate the terrible environment around me. That's the only reason I did this."

Kakine Teitoku, who stood up immediately, did not pay attention to the expression on Ichihito's face.

"Well, to put it another way, even if I leave now, or do something excessive just because of my interest, it should be perfectly fine, right?"

No... We need to talk to Black Rabbit about kicking this man out of the community!

Jin became increasingly convinced that the man named Kakine Teitoku was, to the entire community, simply a playful person.

He doesn't see any group.

Even the things I've done to help others were simply things I did out of interest.

How can such a person... such a dangerous person be allowed to stay—

Boom——! !

However, at that moment, a loud noise came from outside the door.

It was like something had exploded.

"Whoa—?!"

"Ha, what's with all the noise at this hour?"

Kakine Teitoku chuckled and grabbed Jin's hand directly.

"Wait—what are you going to do?"

"Nothing."

The second person laughed casually.

"It's just to make you understand a little bit of the truth."

Immediately afterwards, he took Ren and flew to the outside of the house.

Chapter 768 An Encounter with the Demon King in the Little Garden

boom! !

Just now, a series of explosions were continuously blasting around the outside of 'NoName'.

The person who created all of this simply waved his arms with a playful expression.

He simply threw a randomly picked-up pebble at the third cosmic velocity.

"Hey, what's wrong? Visiting someone's sleeping place in the middle of the night is obviously something with ulterior motives. You still won't show your face even after all this?"

"Well…!"

Izayoi Sakamaki.

Then, the people standing in the bushes in front of this monster-level problem child were so frightened that they could hardly speak.

"What's going on with this guy? Although there are rumors that someone defeated the Serpent God, his strength is just too exaggerated!"

"No, according to another rumor, an unparalleled meteorite crater appeared where the Serpent God was defeated, but it was not naturally formed, but man-made!"

"How is that possible? Could it be that this guy did it?!"

Despite the various surprised comments from the other party, Izayoi Sakamaki remained unmoved.

"Hey, what are you planning to do?"

He chuckled and rubbed the pebble in his hand back and forth between his fingers.

If he so desired, these stones could be hurled at those people with the force of creating a crater in a single blow.

"Let's pause for a bit before that."

boom--

Before Izayoi Sakamaki could make a move, a pure white light had already illuminated the forest.

That was a bright light, enough to illuminate the entire night.

A young man with enormous white wings on his back and a green-haired boy were brought together in this situation.

"In this situation, we shouldn't be the ones taking the initiative."

"Oh?"

Izayoi Sakamaki looked over as if she had become interested.

"It's nothing, it's just what it sounds like."

Kakine Teitoku smiled calmly and brought the bewildered Jin directly in front of the two of them.

"Since 'NoName' is facing this situation, then naturally the leader of this community should personally confront it."

"Do you think there's anything wrong with what I said, kid?"

——————————————————————————————————————

Then, on the other side, even further away.

One person, relying on overwhelming speed, continuously surveys this world.

boom--

Space was torn apart, and then Accelerator's figure appeared directly in the spot.

During this time of night, instead of waiting for a bath, he took the opportunity to explore the land known as the Box Garden alone.

There is only one purpose.

That is to ascertain as much information as possible about this world.

"Even though I have reached the level of absolute power, is the ability to 'listen to the consciousness of God' not so effective in other worlds?"

The most distinctive feature of the Level 6 Absolute Ability user is that they can comprehend the consciousness of the heavens with a purely human body.

To put it more bluntly, it means that God can exhaustively analyze all information related to God in this world.

If Accelerator so desires, he can freely analyze, organize, and understand those realms called "Phase" within that world of science and magic.

However, this situation does not seem to apply to other worlds.

In the world called the Little Garden, there is no such thing as a "phase".

Nevertheless, Accelerator still managed to connect the original world with his own world by relying on the uniqueness of his system. This way, he could use the "phase" techniques from the original world even in other worlds.
