As for why he came to this city, it was because the Second Tokyo City was plagued by demons at that time, and it was a relatively serious period. As a result, in order to conceal the truth, the Adventurer's Association vigorously promoted the benefits of this place, which attracted him and brought his family here.
Then, on her way home from get off work at night, his wife turned into food for a demon, a ghost, and a demon, a tengu, appeared at his son's school and was beheaded.
The mother couldn't bear the blow and turned into a madman. The father was bewitched by a nearby cult that worshipped demons and became a believer. He was eventually beheaded by an official warrior.
Now, apart from working normally and maintaining his own and his mother's lives, he has no other thoughts every day. He is like a puppet, confused and doesn't know what he wants.
Today, on the way to the company, I heard this voice.
"Oh, what a good candidate, sir, I wonder what you are confused about?"
Looking up, he saw a girl with golden hair and a man with white hair (they had changed their appearance), and the man stretched out his hand to him.
"Um, what can I do for you?"
Che was also a little scared, because the man in front of him was too respectable. He must be either a powerful adventurer or someone from a big family or company.
For him, it is out of reach.
"Don't be afraid. The moment I saw you, I felt that we must be a perfect match. This is a gift from me. I look forward to seeing you again."
He handed over a black card, said that, and left without waiting for Tetsuya's reply.
"What a strange person. Also, this card... could it be that it's being targeted by some cultists?"
I didn't feel anything just now, but after I got the card, I don't know why, some negative emotions seemed to appear in my numb heart.
"Forget it, forget it for now, work is more important."
He put the card away, fearing that there might be trouble if he threw it away carelessly, and then hurried towards the company.
"Master Demon, is it okay for us to just let him go?"
"Of course, he is a person who is full of resentment. He just ignores it by relying on numbness. That card is part of the power of the filth of the earth veins. I can believe that he will soon become what I need."
"Okay, let's go back. Anyway, the ley lines here are almost under my control. I know everything he does."
Chapter 125: A Bad Day with Abe Chetsuya
Che had no idea what Lin Fei and the others were thinking. He was in a hurry to go to work. That abominable boss would definitely deduct his salary if he was late for clocking in this morning...
"The trains here are still as crowded as ever. What's going on?"
Che's attention was also attracted by the movement nearby. A big man and a girl were confronting each other. It looked like a standard plot that would appear in some "learning materials".
The two men seemed to be adventurers with good abilities, and they started fighting right inside, and the passengers next to them all retreated.
"It has nothing to do with me. Who knows who is right or wrong? It would be bad if I were bothered by such things and was late."
It has been several years since he came to this city, and Che has long lost his former passion. Life has worn away his edges, making him numb and indifferent.
"Is this really okay? Do you think this is right?"
Where he couldn't see, the black card flashed red, and in his mind, he heard questions that seemed to be his own voice.
"This is not my business. I'm just an ordinary person. I just need to do my best."
"Maybe when Sakurako died, the person next to her also thought so~"
Sakurako, Toru's wife, was killed by a demon. This has always been a pain for Toru. According to the police, a [samurai] passed by the crime scene at the time, but because he did not accept the commission from the Adventurer's Association and felt that it had nothing to do with him, he left directly.
"It's different, it's different, I, I, I don't know why."
Toru seemed to begin to waver, and the voice began to further deceive him.
"It's the problem of this city and this country. If it weren't for their deception, you wouldn't have come here and the tragedy wouldn't have happened. If they could get rid of those monsters, this city wouldn't be so dangerous. Don't you think so?"
"Is it the city's fault? The country's fault..."
“Ding Dong, ■■■ is here.”
The reminder sound inside the train woke Tetsuya up from the state where he was about to fall into an unknown place. Hearing the sound, Tetsuya shook his head blankly and quickly left the train.
"Haha, it's a pity, but there's already a crack in this guy's heart. The next step will be easy~ Hehe~"
If Tetsuya paid attention now, he would find that the card had disappeared. Just now, when Tetsuya's mind was shaken, the black power had already entered his mind.
…………………………Dividing line…………………………
"Huh, huh, huh, we're finally here. Fortunately, there's still time."
Toru hurriedly entered the building, took the elevator, and arrived at the floor where his company was located.
Then I put my employee card on it and got a reply.
"Beep, ordinary employee, Tetsuya, has clocked in today, one minute late."
"Do not……"
In fact, the boss secretly modified the clock-in machine at the company entrance so that anyone who was within five minutes of the actual clock-in time would be considered late.
Today, for some unknown reason, Tetsuya's work status was very bad. He made several mistakes in a row and was called over by the team leader in charge to be reprimanded and his salary was deducted.
"Team Leader, is this..."
"What? How dare you talk back? For a guy like you to get a job opportunity in our company is a charity for you. People like you should know shame. If you are not convinced, you can leave this place. No one will stop you."
There was nothing to say. It was obvious that the team leader was in a bad mood and was actually angry at Na Cheye.
…………………………Dividing line…………………………
After a busy day, Che returned home, but did not see his mother.
The door of my house was open, and the only thing to be thankful for was that no one went in to steal anything.
"Is mom sick again? This is terrible. I don't know where she has gone."
Half an hour had passed and Che had searched all around without finding anything.
At this time, a phone call came in, and it was from a person I didn't recognize.
"Hey, may I ask..."
"Are you Sayuri Yamashita's family? This is the Adventurer's Association. She attacked a C-rank samurai on the street today and has been beheaded. She is still on the street. Please come and drag her away, and pay the fine for compensating the samurai."
Trembling.
cry.
Squat on the ground.
Overwhelmed.
In the end, he walked slowly towards the address provided on the phone like a puppet.
His heart was already broken, and with just one more push...
“Hahaha, how can I put it? His luck is just too good. He doesn’t need my temptation at all. This guy is only one step away from falling into the evil path. I am obviously a part of the ‘evil’ of this city, but I still underestimated human nature.”
In Toru's heart, the black power gradually grew stronger and spread. He was not going to take action now. He wanted to watch Toru fall on his own.
…………………………Dividing line…………………………
"Ah, yes, thank you so much. You were the victim, but you still left my mother with an intact body."
Che also felt that he was going crazy, because the person who killed his relatives was obviously the enemy, but he kept bowing to express his gratitude.
He had already recognized the identity of this warrior; he was the one who had killed his father who had turned into a cultist.
He felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what it was.
When he returned home at night, he had nothing to rely on and had lost all hope. He found the sleeping pills he had given his mother before, one pill, two pills... ten pills.
Not knowing how strong a level 8 adventurer’s resistance to drugs was, he took out all the pills and planned to eat them all.
In his heart, the black power was still there. "No, you're already in this state, and you haven't considered revenge or anything like that. You can't stand it? You're useless. It seems you still need my help."
Then, a voice appeared in Tetsuya's head.
"Hey, have you ever thought about why you became like this, such a pathetic thing~"
If it was before, Toru might have been wary of this mysterious voice, but now, it didn't matter.
"why why why……"
"It's this country, and this city. If it weren't for this, your family would still be as happy as before. So, you must take revenge on them~"
The black power gradually led him to accept these words.
"They destroyed my family? I should take revenge?"
"That's right, let's start with the guy who tricked you into coming to this city. Go to the bedroom, isn't there a weapon there~"
"Weapon, is that the thing? I really miss it. The last time I used it must have been several years ago."
The black power gave Tetsuya his first target, and the so-called weapon was the homemade firearm he used when he was an adventurer. It was more than enough to deal with ordinary people, but it was hard to say about those adventurers.
He came to the bedroom and found the musket in the closet. What Che could not see was that part of the black power had entered it.
The current musket can be used to deal with some D-level adventurers.
As for Tetsuya's first target, that was the previous president of the local Adventurer's Association. It was he who, in order to make his own performance look good, deceived outsiders into thinking that this was some gold rush where they could realize their dreams even though demons had clearly broken out in the Second Tokyo City.
It’s just that two years ago, due to some things, I failed in the election and was laid off.
"Hey, if I remember correctly, that guy seems to be giving speeches in the big square during this period, trying to canvass votes for his next election. This is a good opportunity. That poor guy doesn't even have a few bodyguards. As long as we are well prepared, we will be able to succeed, right~"
Looking at the musket in his hand and listening to the voice in his mind, Tetsuya's eyes became firm.
"Give this guy a name. According to the ancient samurai's name, how about calling him Abe Kiritsu~"
Chapter 126: Broad-minded (forced)
The next morning, Toru got up early. According to the schedule that guy had announced before, he should give a speech in the square today.
He needed to disguise his weapon so that he could blend in and assassinate the guy.
"Is this crude disguise really okay? I think anyone can tell there's something wrong..."
Looking at the musket in his hand, Che felt that it was not very safe. It was just a disguise of a camera. The back part of the musket was not wrapped and could be easily seen.
The voice in my heart appeared again, "Don't forget that the people in this city don't care about what happens to other people. Besides, not many people watched that guy's speech a few days ago, and he only has a few bodyguards. This is enough."
"Although that guy is just a high-level person who has not experienced many adventures, he still has some level. With this new weapon, I can attack twice at most. I hope everything goes well."
………………A…………dividing line…………………………
Half an hour later, Che arrived at the square.
Because he felt that no matter whether this operation would be successful or not, this would be his last day, so he simply did not ask for leave from his leader.
He just wore a mask and ordinary clothes. This level of disguise could not even be considered as disguise, but even so, he managed to sneak in successfully.
He passed by some onlookers. Although some people thought he was weird, no one said anything.
He was clearly planning to assassinate someone, and he did it so brazenly that not even the guy's bodyguards were alert to Tetsuya.
It's getting closer, closer, it's time!
"bump."
The musket disguised as a camera launched its first attack on the guy, but missed and hit the ground nearby.
As the gunshots rang out, everyone was in a complete state of confusion, including the bodyguards.
"It doesn't matter. You still have one more chance. You can do it."
Tetsuya still had half of his magic power, so he aimed at the target and fired the musket a second time.
"bump."
"puff."
It hit him, the bullet hit his heart in the neck. Although the adventurer's body is semi-digital, this attack directly destroyed the target's vitals, and he couldn't withstand it.
The bodyguards who reacted quickly one performed CPR on the fallen target, while the other ran towards Tetsuya, trying to subdue him.
Che had no intention of escaping or resisting. His magic power had been exhausted and there was nothing he could do.
However, it was enough. The target's heart must have been broken, and the weird bodyguard was still pressing his heart, and his blood was surging.
It succeeded, and Toru threw away his musket. The bodyguard who rushed over was a level 20 [Ninja]. He faced death calmly and had his head cut off.
The body fell, but at a level they could not see, his soul, along with some black air currents, went underground.
