The Death of a Nice Guy; Rescue Mission "Saving Private Yotsuya Miko"

Remember, when two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave will prevail!

As for things like belief, will, and awareness, Yotsuya Miko has never lacked them.

Just as Yotsuya Miko on high alert, watching the distance with a sense of formidable danger.

Let's rewind one minute.

Just as Nikawa Okabata was controlling the four Bikaku and attacking Yotsuya Miko and the other two.

A sudden, hard gray stone slammed into his forehead, interrupting his spellcasting and causing Bikaku's landing position to shift slightly.

Although Nikawa Okabata is a Ghoul, ultimately he is only a minor Rank B Ghoul.

Although their physical defense is stronger than that of an average person, its strength is still extremely limited.

Therefore, after being Erosion by quicklime, he was then struck by a blunt object, and he was fortunate enough to experience the feeling of being injured again.

"Hiss..."

Nikawa Okabata, clutching his head which was still spinning and ringing from being hit by a rock, involuntarily gasped for breath.

"Who is it?! How dare they ruin my plans?! And even dare to attack me?"

Nikawa Okabata suddenly turned his head, glared fiercely behind him, and roared angrily.

However, with his eyes closed and blood seeping from his forehead, even with a fierce expression, he still let out a vicious roar.

That's something that doesn't scare you; it might even make you want to laugh.

The bespectacled youth standing not far behind him, making a throwing motion, dared not think that way at all.

He witnessed the entire transformation process of this monster firsthand and knew just how powerful it was.

Therefore, even though Nikawa Okabata looked incredibly miserable at the moment, the young man with the glasses did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

He knew that if he fell into a disadvantageous position in the ensuing confrontation, then what awaited him would be an unparalleled hell.

'Sigh... I tried so hard to hold back, but I couldn't resist in the end.'

'But being able to save those two girls, I guess I've done a good deed, right?'

"Xiao Mai, if something happens to your brother later, you'll have to rely on yourself for the rest of your life."

You must take good care of yourself from now on...

A thousand thoughts flashed through my mind.

However, the bespectacled youth's gaze quickly refocused on Nikawa Okabata in front of him.

Looking at the ferocious-looking monster in front of him, with four "tails" growing from its back.

The bespectacled young man paused for a moment before speaking, "Who am I? Just a kind-hearted person passing by."

Having said that, the bespectacled youth hurriedly spoke again Nikawa Okabata could even make a move:

"I had already called the police when I came in and reported everything that happened here to them. The police arrived immediately."

Upon hearing this, Nikawa Okabata, who was about to make a move, paused abruptly.

This guy... actually called the police?

Does that mean... Doves and his gang are also heading this way?

Nikawa Okabata knew very well that given the ambiguous cooperative relationship between the police station and Doves, if the police station were to discover him, it would inevitably attract Doves.

Thinking about this, Nikawa Okabata felt a desire to back down.

As is well known, Ghoul are found all over Japan, and so are Japan Doves.

The existence of distribution implies a division of danger levels.

In the Ghoul's judgment, the most dangerous places are not those Ghoul everywhere and where fighting is constant.

Rather, it refers to those areas that appear peaceful, stable, warm, and harmonious on the surface.

The more peaceful and stable the region, the stronger the Doves patrolling there are, and the greater their killing intent towards Ghoul.

Given the peaceful atmosphere in this area, it's easy for Nikawa Okabata to guess just how monstrous the Doves patrolling here must be.

If I actually attract the Doves and he catches me, then with my fighting ability, I might actually be killed...

The young man with glasses, oblivious to Nikawa Okabata's condition, continued to offer his advice:

"Although I don't know what you are, you are still made of flesh and blood."

"Since you are made of flesh and blood, you will definitely be threatened by firearms."

So, choose one:

"Should we leave here before the police arrive to survive?"

"Or will they waste their time dealing with us and end up being killed by the police who arrive later?"

Are you... threatening me?

Nikawa Okabata, who had been panicking and planning to retreat when he heard that the Doves was on its way, felt a surge of anger rise in his heart again after hearing the words of the bespectacled young man.

Damn it.

Just a bunch of food.

One or two of them not only hurt him, but now there's even a hothead who dares to threaten him.

It was practically like rubbing his face under their feet.

If he doesn't regain his dignity, he'll be finished.

The young man with glasses probably never imagined that Nikawa Okabata, whom he was about to persuade to retreat, would actually interpret his advice as a provocation and thus abandon the idea of retreating.

The bespectacled young man pushed up his glasses and said, "No, no, no, don't misunderstand. This isn't a provocation; it's just a well-intentioned piece of advice."

"Oh..."

"The idea is good, but haven't you forgotten something?"

Upon hearing this, Nikawa Okabata sneered, looked at the bespectacled young man in front of him, and said in a cold voice, word by word:

"With my strength, even if I take you all out first, I'll still have enough time to escape from here."

At this moment, Nikawa Okabata was completely Domination by rage.

He no longer cared whether killing these three people would provoke Doves's wrath and lead to him being hunted down.

Right now, his only thought is to kill these three creatures that dared to offend him.

(Ghoul are all madmen, mentally ill people with extreme emotions.)

It's hard to understand why someone would risk their life for the sake of saving face.

But if we apply this to a mental illness, wouldn't it be much easier to understand?

Upon hearing these words from Nikawa Okabata, the young man with the calm and confident expression on his face instantly changed his expression.

Clearly, he had already grasped the underlying meaning in Nikawa Okabata's words:

Even if he planned to escape, he would still kill them!

Are you fucking crazy?

What exactly is the grudge or resentment between us?

I just said a few words to you, and you're acting like you're going to die?

Is it really necessary?

"You..."

Realizing this, the bespectacled young man felt a sudden pang in his heart and thought of speaking again to buy some more time, but before he could even utter the first word...

Pfft...

A sound that pierced through flesh and blood, mixed with a frantic pain emanating from his chest, was like thousands of sharp blades Ravage Bite at his nerves.

This sudden turn of events left the bespectacled young man completely stunned.

He looked down in disbelief and clearly saw a "machete" that looked like it was made of flesh and blood, piercing straight through his chest.

"I @&$$&+$/@..."

Feeling the life force rapidly draining from his body, the young man with the bulging eyes wanted to say something more, somewhat unwilling to accept it.

However, the blood gushing from his chest cavity had completely filled his throat, making it impossible for the young man to speak.

Hearing the indistinct sounds coming from beside him, the bespectacled young man paused, then silently stopped what he was doing and sighed inwardly:

' Xiao Mai, I'm sorry, I have to break my promise. I can't bring that Shonen Jump back with me.'

"From now on, you need to learn to live on your own. This world is a dangerous place, so you must survive well and don't think about avenging me..."

'Cough cough... Am I going to die?'

'Although I didn't regret it before I did it, now that I do feel a little regretful.'

'If I hadn't come to this alley, would I have survived?'

'If I hadn't said the second half of that sentence, would the monster have left?'

'If...'

And so, the young man with the glasses, filled with resentment and regret, gradually brought his life to a standstill.

"Hmph... I thought you were so great? Turns out this is all? You think you can Mind's Eye me?"

"Delaying time? Do you really think I'm stupid?"

Having regained his sight, Nikawa Okabata looked at the young man with eyes that had been pierced through the chest by his own Bikaku and was now completely dead, and immediately let out a disdainful sneer.

He is Ghoul, Demi-Human.

Although I didn't receive much formal education, I've been in society for so many years, and it hasn't been for nothing.

The young man's intentions were too obvious; even a fool could figure it out.

It's nothing more than a delaying tactic to buy time for the Doves and the police.

Now that he knew the young man's purpose, he naturally wouldn't let him have his way.

So just as the young man was about to speak, he was killed instantly, ending the conversation and shattering all of the young man's plans and schemes.

Looking at the young man's corpse before him, Nikawa Okabata sniffed the air, savoring the fragrance, and unconsciously swallowed.

"But I didn't expect that you would also be a 'top-quality ingredient'. Although you can't compare to those two, you are still considered top-notch."

"Damn it... If it weren't for having to avoid those Doves that are like leeches, I wouldn't want to give up these 'treasures'!"

Although that's what they say, it's just a few words of stubbornness.

Nikawa Okabata has a good understanding of the current situation.

He knew this was no time to waste; in this life-or-death situation, he had no time to think about anything else.

So, suppressing his heartache, Nikawa Okabata flicked his tail and sent the bespectacled youth crashing into the wall.

Then he ran off without looking back.

Time was running out, so he had to deal with the two women before the Doves arrived.

It wasn't just to save face, but also to get their "bodies".

Please forgive Nikawa Okabata for still thinking about this thing when life and death were at stake.

But there was nothing he could do; those two women smelled so good that he simply couldn't resist!

So Nikawa Okabata decided that even if he couldn't take them with him, he would at least take a piece of meat to satisfy his craving.

Just as Nikawa Okabata was running wildly toward Yotsuya Miko.

The Dimensional Chat Group also sensed that Yotsuya Miko might be in mortal danger.

So he quickly posted a rescue request in the group chat.

Within the Dimensional Chat Group.

Douluo World.

Yu Hui Academy.

Inside the Academy Dean's office.

Wu Tong was dealing with the business that had piled up at the Academy a few days ago, looking utterly miserable.

Suddenly, he felt that familiar vibration coming from his mind, and his hand paused.

"That sound... is it Dimensional Chat Group notification tone?"

Wu Tong murmured unconsciously, his expression somewhat serious.

If he remembered correctly, he had set a rule that he should not be disturbed unless it was absolutely necessary in the morning.

But now, the Dimensional Chat Group sent him a notification sound.

Doesn't this mean... something big has happened in the group?

Thinking of this, Wu Tong immediately stopped what he was doing and focused his attention on the Dimensional Chat Group to check the source of the notification sound.

After watching it.

Wu Tong breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a new mission; he thought something terrible had happened...

Etc...

Task!!!

After calming down, Wu Tong's eyes lit up.

This mission is great! This mission is brilliant!

This mission came at the perfect time!

Once he accepted this task, he wouldn't have to deal with all that endless work anymore.

Thinking of something, Wu Tong quickly clicked on the mission interface and signed up to participate in the rescue mission.

Ahem... Work tasks are secondary; his main concern is helping the new members!

The DanMachi World.

Hestia is browsing through Dimensional Chat Group files in the abandoned church (while lying in bed watching anime).

Upon hearing the system notification tone, I immediately jumped out of bed.

What the hell is that noise?

Hestia looked around nervously, trying to figure out where the sound was coming from.

However, after looking for a long time, she still couldn't find the source of the sound.

Just as she was racking her brains trying to figure it out, the Dimensional Chat Group in her mind suddenly vibrated.

Hestia: "..."

She said, "I knew it! It's like I forgot something. Oh, I forgot about the Dimensional Chat Group!"
