I Just Find Him Annoying

This is a perfectly reasonable question.

As a human being, Fang Li's performance was far too outstanding to be explained by a mere Reiji Maigo.

However, there is no need for Fang Li to explain.

"If I remember correctly, the Flame Haze Warrior's mission is to maintain the balance of the world, and that's why they fight against the reckless 'Disciples.' Therefore, their actions are merely a means to an end."

As if changing the subject, Fang Li said, "And who I am, and why I have power, seems to have nothing to do with the balance of the world, right?"

The implication was very clear: it was telling Shana and Alastor that this was not a matter for the Flame Haze Warrior to concern themselves with.

"Or do you believe that my power has also caused the world to be distorted?" Fang Li said with a half-smile, "If that's the case, then I'll explain it to you honestly."

Upon hearing this, Alastor fell silent.

On the contrary, Shana, after slightly furrowing her brows, actually agreed with Fang Li's statement.

"You're right. Why you possess power has nothing to do with the mission of the Flame Haze Warrior, and we have no need to ask you about it."

Shana said very decisively, "In that case, let's get back to the topic of the Reiji Maigo. How did you obtain that Treasure Tool?"

Generally speaking, Treasure Tool are created by Crimson Realm Denizens.

This power is either in the hands of Crimson Realm Denizens or Flame Haze Warrior; it is extremely rare for humans to possess Treasure Tool.

"If you were Mystes, that wouldn't be surprising," Alastor said. "But you're just a human, which is rather strange."

The so-called Mystes refers to a type of torch.

It was a torch that housed Treasure Tool within its body, or perhaps it was used by the Crimson King to preserve special power.

These torches are no different from ordinary torches; they will burn out as their Power of Existence is depleted, and their function is at most that of a treasure vault, hence they are also known as mobile treasure vaults.

Therefore, if it is a torch, then it is not surprising that Fang Li possesses Treasure Tool.

However, it would be inconceivable if Fang Li were just a human.

"But that's still not the point." Fang Li sighed and said directly, "However I obtained the Reiji Maigo, that's none of your business, right?"

The room fell silent immediately after he said that.

Alastor had fallen completely silent, and it was impossible to tell whether he was Fang Li dissatisfaction or had some other thought.

Shana stared intently at Fang Li, and Fang Li eyes met.

The quiet atmosphere suddenly began to shift towards a somber tone.

Fang Li and Shana stared at each other, seemingly trying to read something from each other's eyes. Their gazes met but did not spark any fire; instead, the atmosphere around them gradually became heavy.

After a long pause, Shana spoke.

It wasn't directed at Fang Li, but at his own contractor.

"Alastor, what do you think?"

Alastor didn't answer immediately, seemingly considering something as well.

After a while, Alastor said, "Our mission is to punish the 'traitors' who are distorting the world, and since someone has already taken on this task, we don't need to be too attached to it."

It was very clear what Alastor wanted to say.

In fact, Shana is not the only Flame Haze Warrior in this world.

Furthermore, because Flame Haze Warrior made a pact with the Crimson King, sacrificing their past, present, and future existence as a price, their own time has completely stopped. As long as they don't die in battle, they will never have the problem of dying of old age.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Flame Haze Warrior encounter each other because of the same prey.

However, Flame Haze Warrior usually become Flame Haze Warrior for their own purposes.

Most of them were victims of the Crimson Realm Denizens who took away their loved ones, and they formed a pact with the Crimson King out of hatred.

Furthermore, the Flame Haze Warrior's operational strategies are completely different, so if they encounter each other, they might not cooperate at all, but could even fight each other.

Therefore, if it were a Flame Haze Warrior seeing Fang Li this situation, they would probably have already started a fight.

Unfortunately, Shana is different.

Shana did not become Flame Haze Warrior out of hatred; she only formed a contract because she was raised as Flame Haze Warrior.

Therefore, Shana only needs to fulfill the duties of Flame Haze Warrior.

In other words, since someone else is in charge of this task, Shana can simply hand it over to someone else.

Shana had gone through the same thing in the past.

Unfortunately, this time, Shana refuted Alastor's statement.

"Since the opponent is that ' The Hunter,' even if this human possesses immense power, defeat is still a possibility."

Shana stated firmly, "Therefore, Alastor, we will continue to monitor this place, not to mention the possibility of other 'Apprentices' arriving here in the future, especially since the Reiji Maigo is here."

Alastor fell silent again.

A short while later, Alastor replied, "In that case, let's stay in this city."

Thus, Shana's subsequent course of action was decided.

Under these circumstances, Shana stood up and looked down at Fang Li, saying, "I will keep an eye on you nearby. If you encounter Fariagani and are unable to defeat him, I will intervene."

After leaving those words, Shana walked straight to the balcony without Fang Li's reply, and with a leap, jumped off.

Seeing this, Fang Li breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had solved a problem.

"Anyway, the problem is finally solved."

Next, they found Fariagani.

On the other side, Shana left Fang Li's apartment, but she didn't go too far. Instead, she sat down on the rooftop of a building that offered a view of Fang Li's room.

Alastor's voice came from the pendant.

"To act impulsively towards that human is so unlike you."

That's right.

Acting impulsively.

Although Shana used that reason, her unwillingness to leave was simply due to acting on impulse.

Shana herself was aware of this.

Looking at Fang Li cooking instant noodles in the room, seemingly intending to fill his stomach this way, Shana spoke in a voice devoid of emotion.

"I just think he's annoying."
