Chapter 497: Kiyotaka’s News
Hakuto himself hadn’t expected the diary to be a module of the system. After the diary merged, Hakuto discovered that the rewards obtained from the system’s daily check-ins would no longer cause any damage to the world barrier.
That meant that from now on, Hakuto wouldn’t need to worry about the things checked in from the system damaging the world barrier.
But this thing had come too late. If he had had this ability back then, the current situation wouldn’t exist.
‘Check in!’
[Check-in successful. Congratulations, Host, on obtaining Pincer Fish!]
Another ingredient from the Toriko World. But to be honest, Hakuto felt that this wasn’t as important as increasing his own strength.
What Hakuto needed most right now was a way to increase his strength, not to obtain these ingredients. Unfortunately, these things were completely beyond Hakuto’s control.
“How is it?”
Tushan Honghong asked Hakuto. Hakuto shook his head.
“Nothing much yet. It needs some time.”
Hearing this, Tushan Rongrong said, “It looks like we’re going to be busy for a while.”
Tushan Rongrong and the others had also anticipated that they would probably be very busy in the coming days. And unless something unexpected happened, something would probably go wrong.
Hakuto shook his head and didn’t say much. He glanced at the three Tushan sisters. “You’ll probably need to work hard for a while.”
Looking at the girls before him, Hakuto said somewhat awkwardly. In the coming days, he would probably need the Tushan sisters’ help.
“We don’t mind that. Just think about how you’re going to compensate us later.”
Hakuto gave a dry laugh, completely unable to respond to what Tushan Rongrong and the others had said.
What could Hakuto do?
He had no choice but to deal with it as best he could.
“Alright. I’ll try my best to think of something. I’ll make sure you’re satisfied.”
“The simplest way to satisfy us, you know it.”
Tushan Yaya looked at Hakuto indifferently. Hakuto felt a little guilty under her gaze. What could he do? Tushan Yaya looked like she wasn’t someone to be trifled with. Hakuto could only swallow his pride.
‘Let Yaya have her moment of triumph for now. She’ll get hers later.’
Grumbling inwardly, Hakuto promptly slipped away. After he left, Tushan Yaya’s somewhat dissatisfied voice rang out. “He comes to us when he needs something, and ignores us when he doesn’t. What a bastard!”
Tushan Rongrong chuckled and looked at Tushan Yaya. “Sister Yaya, are you jealous?”
Tushan Yaya’s face darkened as she looked at Tushan Rongrong. “What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I be jealous!”
Tushan Rongrong chuckled softly, not refuting Tushan Yaya at all. As sisters, how could they not understand Tushan Yaya’s awkward personality?
But Tushan Rongrong didn’t intend to keep provoking her second sister either.
Hakuto had just returned and hadn’t even had time to sit down before he started receiving all kinds of messages.
Things from outside the world had already begun to enter this world.
People kept reporting murders. The bodies of these murdered people had what looked like bite marks from some wild animal, leaving them tattered and torn.
However, according to surveillance footage, what was captured wasn’t any wild animal, but some humans!
Upon learning this, Hakuto immediately realized that some kind of ghoul-like creatures had probably appeared.
The emergence of these creatures meant that this world had gained some things it didn’t originally have.
Soon, the murderer was found. But after catching him, Hakuto realized he had a big problem on his hands.
Kibutsuji Muzan!
Hakuto hadn’t expected this thing to show up. The captured murderer was merely a Demon casually created by him!
“Troublesome.”
Hakuto was somewhat speechless. Fortunately, using Annihilation Maker, he created a magical beast specifically targeting Demons. This magical beast could actively search for Demons, and when it found one, it would just gobble them up.
If not for the fact that the Demon’s blood belonging to the Demon King was too little, Hakuto would have wanted to create a cursed magical beast to directly take care of Muzan. What a pity…
In the following days, all kinds of troubles kept appearing. Fortunately, with the cooperation between Hakuto and the official authorities, there weren’t any major problems.
The only somewhat difficult issue was that the Demon King, who kept causing trouble for Hakuto, was still alive. But Hakuto wasn’t worried.
He would die soon enough. The magical beasts created by Annihilation Maker were now spread throughout Japan.
Even if this Demon King buried himself in the ground, these magical beasts would dig him out.
Hakuto thought that was it, but he didn’t expect a phone call to come to him.
Kiyotaka was calling Hakuto!
“I found that person.”
After hanging up, Hakuto thought about whether he should contact Suzune.
If she found out about this, she would definitely want to take matters into her own hands. But with her personality, she would definitely mess things up. So now, Hakuto was hesitating about whether to tell her.
After thinking it over, Hakuto felt he should tell her. After all, she had endured so much suffering for the sake of personally avenging her brother. If he didn’t take her now, she would probably hate him for life.
Hakuto took out the Anywhere Door and went to the back mountain of the shrine.
“Stop for a moment. I need to take Suzune out for a while.”
Hakuto said to Kikyo. Kikyo nodded and called Suzune over.
“We found the killer.”
Hakuto’s words made Suzune’s eyes light up.
“Go change your clothes, and then…”
“No need. We can set out now.”
The spiritual power on Suzune instantly evaporated the water from her clothes.
Hakuto looked at Suzune and couldn’t help but sigh. “Your talent is really strong. Normally, achieving this would take several years of training. But you, Suzune, have achieved this in a short time.”
Suzune didn’t care about this at all. She said, “So, can we go now?”
