Chapter 499: Found a Wild, Battle-Damaged Eula Lawrence
The sun hung high in the sky. Hakuto deliberately chose an open area facing the sun. As the sun completely rose above the horizon, he took out the container holding Muzan, a mischievous smile on his face. “Muzan, come out and sunbathe!”
Then, the next moment, Hakuto tossed the container out. Muzan, emerging from the container, immediately let out an agonizing scream: “Arrrggghhh!!!!”
His skin began to slowly ulcerate. Exposed to the sunlight, Muzan immediately tried to hide. But the place Hakuto had deliberately chosen had nowhere for him to take shelter from the sun. That meant…
Muzan was doomed!
Amidst his screams, Muzan gradually turned into black ash.
After ensuring that Muzan was truly and completely dead, Hakuto took out the Anywhere Door and brought Suzune back to the shrine. “Continue your training. I hope that in the future, you can help me achieve some of my goals.”
After taking a deep breath, Suzune said, “I won’t let you down.”
Hakuto nodded and sent her back.
However, as he sent Suzune back, Hakuto noticed that Kushida’s gaze seemed to be fixed on him and Suzune, as if trying to see if anything had happened between them.
Then, Kushida directly approached. “Can I have a word with you?”
Although he could guess what Kushida wanted to talk about, Hakuto didn’t want to waste time on such things.
“Nothing happened between me and Suzune. So you don’t need to worry about this or that, and you don’t need to worry about her getting ahead of you. Nothing happened between us, and don’t worry that I’ll give her special treatment because of it.”
Before Kushida could even ask, Hakuto had already resolved all the doubts in her mind. The expression on Kushida’s face stiffened slightly. It seemed because Hakuto had guessed her thoughts, she was now thinking about how to salvage her impression in his eyes.
“I know exactly what kind of person you are, Kushida. You don’t need to hide anything from me.”
The expression on Kushida’s face instantly darkened. Hakuto’s words made her somewhat unhappy, as if she had been completely seen through by him.
“Enough. What you need to do now is train hard. Later, I will have Suzune join a special organization I’m establishing to deal with particular matters. If you don’t want to be left behind by her, then work hard!”
‘Damn!’
Kushida cursed inwardly. She hated that bastard Hakuto to the bone, but there was nothing she could do. Couldn’t she see that Hakuto was deliberately using Suzune to provoke her, all to exploit her?
But even though she saw through it, she was helpless. Unless she stopped competing with Suzune, but was that possible?
Losing to anyone was fine, but not to Suzune. This was non-negotiable.
Kushida didn’t know why she hated Suzune so much. It was as if they had some deep-seated grudge from a past life. But she didn’t care. As long as she could firmly suppress Suzune, as long as she could get one over on her, nothing else mattered.
Even if it meant being used by Hakuto.
Hakuto had just returned and hadn’t even had time to sit down before something else came up.
At the Supernatural Countermeasures Division, Hakuto looked at Isayama Yomi with a strange expression. “She came to us on her own?”
“Yes. Although I also find it very strange, she indeed came to us of her own accord.”
Hakuto’s gaze turned to the girl before him: Eula Lawrence!
A female character from the game Genshin Impact that Hakuto had played before transmigrating.
“Eula Lawrence, the Spindrift Knight of Mondstadt, right?”
Hearing Hakuto reveal her origins, a look of delight appeared on Eula Lawrence’s face. “You know Mondstadt? Then do you know how to get back?”
Looking at the battle-damaged Eula Lawrence, Hakuto shook his head.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know how to return to Mondstadt. Even though I know who you are, and even though I know most things about Teyvat, I don’t know how to send you back. This is a matter of two different worlds.”
The look of delight on Eula’s face instantly vanished. Then she looked at Hakuto. “Then how do you know about Teyvat?”
“I don’t need to answer that. You just need to know that you can’t go back for now. However, I do have a way for you to contact people in Mondstadt.”
Thinking of Sona’s super-dimensional communicator, Hakuto felt it could be used to let Eula contact Mondstadt.
Faced with Eula’s suspicious gaze, Hakuto said nothing. Believing him or not was her business; he didn’t care.
“I can tell you this: you can choose not to believe us. We won’t force you or coerce you into doing anything. As long as you don’t cause trouble, this world welcomes you.”
Hakuto didn’t care whether Eula suspected him or not. It didn’t matter. As far as he was concerned, she could either work for him or choose to live as an ordinary person.
“I need to speak with Grand Master Jean.”
“Alright.”
Hakuto took out his phone and called Sona. After confirming her location, he took out the Anywhere Door.
“Let’s go.”
Hakuto said to Eula as he opened the door. A look of astonishment flashed in her eyes as she looked at it.
‘What the hell was this?’
But Eula didn’t step through. She looked at Hakuto. He shrugged, then walked through first. After confirming there was no problem, Eula finally followed.
Her vision blurred, and Eula found herself in a different room.
She immediately looked at Hakuto. Seeing that he was still there, she relaxed slightly. Being alone in a foreign place, Eula was full of vigilance.
