Chapter 498: Muzan, Time to Sunbathe
Hakuto had not only found Ayanokoji Atsuomi, but he had also unexpectedly found Muzan. The two had actually colluded and teamed up together. This was truly unexpected.
But it was convenient that both were in the same place. Hakuto would deal with them at once.
Hakuto patted Suzune’s bottom and said, “Then go. Your opponent is that man.”
Hakuto pointed at Atsuomi, while his own gaze was fixed on Muzan.
Under Hakuto’s gaze, Muzan directly exploded his body into 1,800 pieces, trying to escape. But did Hakuto let him?
Clearly, not!
The 1,800 pieces of flesh hovered motionless in mid-air. Then, as if time were rewinding, they slowly and gradually reassembled into a person.
“We’ve only just met, and you’re already thinking of running away?”
An expression of extreme terror appeared on Muzan’s face. Hakuto ignored him and looked at Suzune.
Although Suzune’s strength wasn’t that great, it was still much stronger than Atsuomi’s.
Gradually, Suzune’s strength began to gain the upper hand. Unless something unexpected happened, she would soon have Atsuomi.
After confirming that Suzune was fine, Hakuto turned his gaze to Muzan, whom he had under control. Held suspended in the air, Muzan looked at Hakuto with fear in his eyes.
“You’ve caused me quite a lot of trouble. Next, may I ask you to honestly stop causing me trouble?”
Hearing Hakuto’s words, Muzan couldn’t even open his mouth. Hakuto reached out and grasped the air. Under his immense will, the entire space was dominated by it.
The space continuously compressed Muzan, as if trying to squash him into mincemeat. But Hakuto knew that this method also couldn’t kill him.
He just wanted to temporarily make him behave and not think about running away.
Then he took out a container, put Muzan inside, and waited for the sun to come out so he could take him out to sunbathe.
Of course, Hakuto could have used other methods. But since he knew Muzan’s fatal weakness, why waste time? There was only that much time left until dawn anyway. Once it was light, Muzan would be gone.
After dealing with Muzan, Hakuto looked at Suzune. She was continuously attacking using what she had learned. But Atsuomi had used some method, and Suzune was gradually being suppressed.
Seeing this, Hakuto couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow slightly. Suzune’s strength was slightly greater than Atsuomi’s, but she clearly had one flaw: she had no practical combat experience whatsoever.
Suzune had been training the entire time and had never fought anyone. That meant her combat experience was zero. So after being suppressed, she became anxious.
The more anxious she became, the more mistakes she made. The more mistakes she made, the more anxious she became. Atsuomi spotted an opportunity. It seemed Suzune was about to lose.
But Hakuto intervened. Atsuomi, like Muzan, was instantly controlled by Hakuto. His immense willpower completely solidified the space.
Hakuto said to Suzune, “After I ask what I want to know, you can kill him.”
Suzune’s gaze held some hatred, but she still controlled herself and didn’t act immediately.
Hakuto directly transformed Atsuomi into a Faceless One, then extracted from him the information he wanted to know.
He already knew most of it. The only thing Hakuto didn’t know was that behind Atsuomi was another person.
It was this person who had brought the country bumpkin Atsuomi to where he was today. And this person made even Hakuto narrow his eyes.
Hakuto hadn’t expected that the person behind Atsuomi would actually be the so-called Heavenly Emperor of the Restoration Society. The so-called Heavenly Emperor of the Restoration Society turned out to be…
After asking what he wanted to know, Hakuto handed Atsuomi over to Suzune.
Once Atsuomi fell into Suzune’s hands, there was only one result: death. Suzune didn’t torture him either. She just used a pistol to put a hole in the center of his forehead, exactly the same way Manabu had died.
Hakuto hadn’t expected Suzune to be so decisive. But when he saw her start vomiting on the ground after killing him, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
To be honest, Hakuto didn’t have much of a feeling about killing. The first time he killed someone himself, he just felt a bit weak, but there was no vomiting or anything like that. At most, he thought the smell of blood was a bit unpleasant.
Later, after killing more people, he found he didn’t feel anything at all.
It took Suzune a while to recover. She looked at Hakuto and said, “Thank you for letting me take revenge with my own hands.”
Hakuto spread his hands. “This is just a deal. Now the deal is complete.”
A blush rose on Suzune’s face. She knew exactly what the deal Hakuto was talking about entailed.
But she didn’t intend to go back on her word.
“You can come and take your chips anytime.”
Suzune certainly knew what the chips were, but she had no intention of reneging. Her personality meant she couldn’t break a promise.
Not to mention that her brother Manabu’s life was still in Hakuto’s hands. If she went back on her word, her brother’s fate would be worse than death—he wouldn’t even be able to die if he wanted to.
As Hakuto and Suzune were talking, time had quietly passed. The sky was now faintly lit, and the sun was gradually rising.
“Then next, I plan to take Kibutsuji Muzan out to sunbathe. Let’s go back after we take him sunbathing.”
