50: Butler Thomas, Alice Asks for TroubleEris witnessed Cid's formidable strength firsthand, so her sword training this afternoon became even more rigorous than usual.It was clear how strong her determination to get revenge was.Being the same age, she didn't believe she was inferior to Cid; as long as she trained hard, she would definitely be able to defeat him head-on one day.After the first day's lessons were over, Cid and Rudeus returned to their room together."Brother Cid, when are we going to visit the town?"Walking back, Rudeus asked with a slightly expectant expression.He had never been to a town in this world and wondered how it differed from the island nation of his previous life. Would there be a red-light district?Thinking of this, Rudeus felt a little excited inside.He wasn't a real child, and since finding a girlfriend now was hopeless, it wouldn't be bad to go out and have some fun with someone.When Cid heard Rudeus's words, an important item that appeared early in the original work immediately came to his mind.If he could get that item, it would greatly help improve his forging skills."Alright, we'll go in a few days."Cid nodded in response to Rudeus.He was a man who had read the original work, so he had already discussed Eris's study schedule with Philip yesterday, which included one day off each week.On the day without lessons, he could take Rudeus to town and buy the things he wanted."Oh yeah!"Rudeus cheered, raising his hands, a happy smile on his face.Perhaps such a life wasn't bad?He didn't really want to go home anymore.Just then, Rudeus suddenly bumped into a slightly hard object, and his body uncontrollably fell backward to the ground.He quickly looked up and found that a man in a butler's uniform, slightly hunched, with short black hair and a somewhat gloomy face, had appeared in front of him at some point."Excuse me, did I hurt you?"Thomas bent down to help Rudeus up, an apologetic look on his face."No."Rudeus shook his head and stood up.Since this was the Boreas Family mansion, he hadn't activated his Observation Haki, and this was just a corner, so bumping into someone wasn't strange.However, after this incident, he decided to keep his Observation Haki active no matter where he was, at least to ensure his safety at all times.But why didn't Brother Cid remind him?Although Rudeus felt a bit confused inside, he still didn't ask.Maybe he also hadn't activated it, just like himself.Seeing that Rudeus was not injured, Thomas left immediately and continued walking forward, looking a bit hurried.Cid watched Thomas's departing back, his gaze flickering slightly.Because the current plot was different from the original, he almost forgot about Thomas's existence.However, he could use him just like in the original work.Cid seemed to have thought of something, and the corner of his mouth gradually curved into an arc."Brother Cid?"Rudeus looked at Cid, who had suddenly shown a strange smile, and felt curious, waving his hand in front of his eyes."Let's go."Cid regained his composure, gave a slight smile, and continued walking forward with Rudeus.He had already subtly released a flying insect to monitor Thomas, so Thomas's every move would be visible to him later.No matter what schemes he had, Cid could easily deal with them.....Deep night.Under the dark night sky, a petite figure holding a thick wooden stick gently twisted the doorknob, then lightly tiptoed into the room.She made no sound along the way, indicating that this was not her first time doing such a thing.Eris gently moved her bare, tender white feet and quickly tiptoed to the side of the bed.She looked at the handsome young man lying on the bed, sleeping soundly, and a vengeful smile appeared on her pale white face.She couldn't defeat him in a direct fight, but that didn't mean other methods wouldn't work.As long as she could get revenge, she would stop at nothing.Thinking of this, Eris immediately used both hands to slowly raise the thick wooden stick above her head, casting an exaggerated shadow of the stick on the bed.She tensed her muscles and swung it forcefully towards Cid's handsome face.You hateful guy, let's see if you dare to bully me like that again!Eris seemed to already foresee the scene of Cid, with a bleeding head, kneeling and begging for mercy, and the smile on her small face became even more excited.Soon, the wooden stick hit Cid's head as expected.But the result was very different from what Eris had imagined.Because when the wooden stick touched his head, a strong shockwave suddenly generated, and the swung stick was directly bounced back.Then the wooden stick hit Eris's pale white forehead with a "thud," leaving a bright red mark on it, and then she felt her vision go black, immediately falling to the ground and losing consciousness.If it weren't for the dark environment, she would have clearly seen Cid's head covered in a dark color.Clearly, her attack was easily bounced back by the flowing Armament Haki, serving her right.Cid now sat up from the bed, looking at Eris lying on the ground beside him, her pale white forehead still bleeding, and he was speechless.His Observation Haki was always active; he knew when she approached the room, he had just been pretending to sleep."So troublesome, now I have to take her back."Cid walked in front of Eris, used Healing Magic to heal the cracked white skin on her forehead, and grumbled."Will there be any sequelae?"Cid looked at the still unconscious Eris and fell into thought, but then shook his head in denial.At most, it should only be a concussion, which Healing Magic can cure, especially since his Healing Magic has already reached the advanced level.Aside from not being able to regenerate limbs, most injuries can be healed.A minor concussion was not a problem at all.Thinking of this, Cid used a princess carry to gently pick up Eris, her thick red hair hanging down, about a pack of tissues away from the ground.His first impression was that she was very light, and her body was very soft.Are women really made of water?Cid smiled lightly, carried Eris, opened the door, and left the room.With the perception ability of Observation Haki, he didn't have to worry about being seen and causing any accidental misunderstandings; he easily avoided the patrolling servants.Soon, he carried Eris into her room.Then he gently placed her back on the bed and covered her with the blanket.With the matter settled, Cid looked at Eris sleeping soundly on the bed and had no intention of doing anything bad; he very decisively left the place.It was still deep night, and he needed to go back and get some good sleep.Besides, he had no interest in girls whose bodies hadn't fully developed yet.
Chapter 51: Rudius: This figure is really goodThe next morning.Eris sat up from the bed, still groggy, her red hair a bit disheveled, and her head throbbing slightly.At the same time, some memories from last night resurfaced."What exactly happened, and why am I in my own room?"Eris's small face was bewildered, still unclear about what happened last night, only vaguely remembering that she seemed to have been knocked out by the wooden stick that bounced back."Wait a minute…"Eris's small face was startled, and she quickly lowered her head to check if there was anything different about her body.After checking, her pretty face was slightly red, and she knew for sure that Cid must have carried her back."Hmph! Thankfully, you didn't do anything bad!"Eris snorted lightly, no longer dwelling on the specifics of last night, but instead began to get dressed, preparing to wash up and then attend class.She was determined to learn that annoying guy's skill.… … … …On the other side, Cid was currently lying on the bed, wearing glasses and watching a movie.The movie's name was "Thomas's Revenge."That's right, Thomas was still planning to kidnap Eris, just like in the original story, but now he was struggling to find an opportunity and was thinking of a way.Although he had learned yesterday that Eris's class schedule had changed, allowing her to rest one day a week, he still hadn't found any opportunities.So, he could only rack his brain for the next plan.Cid felt a little bored, closed the real-time movie, and put his glasses back into his Devouring Pouchspace.It was a new day, and he also needed to wash up and prepare for the upcoming teaching.Although his daily teaching hours were not long, this was not an excuse to be lazy, as he also had to learn swordsmanship from Ghislaine.When you ask for help, you naturally have to do your own part.… … … …"Damn it, why can't I cast it!"Eris roared, her slightly fierce, pale face showing annoyance, as she forcefully threw away the beginner's staff she was holding.Fortunately, this was a soft patch of grass, otherwise the staff would definitely have shattered.Cid, beside her, rubbed his forehead speechlessly, a little helpless about Eris's constant temper tantrums.Seriously, it really needed something else to happen to change her personality."That's because you haven't calmed down; the flow of magic in your body is very chaotic."Hearing Cid's explanation, Eris shifted her gaze, staring at him with fierce red eyes, but she didn't speak."Looking at me won't help; everything I said is true."Cid spread his palms and shrugged, speaking calmly.Eris still didn't speak upon hearing this, but her red eyebrows furrowed slightly.I must hold back; I must learn magic, only then can I learn the amazing skill from this annoying guy in front of me.As long as I learn his skill, I will definitely be able to defeat him then.Yes, I'll listen to him for now; I can get my revenge tonight.Thinking of this, Eris's furrowed eyebrows relaxed again, and her breathing became much steadier than before, appearing less irritable.Cid looked at Eris, whose aura had stabilized, with some surprise, not expecting her to actually choose to listen to him; it was truly unexpected."Hmph!"Seeing the surprise in Cid's eyes, Eris couldn't help but let out a delicate hum, and a slight joy inexplicably appeared in her heart.It was probably similar to the feeling a student gets when praised by a teacher.In the time that followed, Eris indeed showed improvement compared to before; she could now emit a faint red flame, but it was not yet strong enough to be called magic.Despite this, Eris seemed very happy.By the way, she only had a tiny bit of talent in fire magic for offensive spells; she had no talent whatsoever in water, wind, or earth magic.It seemed to be the same in the original story, which was within expectations.… … … …After finishing her magic lessons and having a short break, Eris was immediately ready to begin studying arithmetic and literacy.But she had no interest in arithmetic, and feeling it was very boring, she simply chose not to go today, showing just how willful her personality was.When class time arrived, Rudeus looked at the classroom where only Ghislaine was obediently sitting, his face covered in black lines.Eris was nowhere to be seen; according to his deduction, she definitely wasn't planning on coming.Skipping class after only one day, truly worthy of the red-haired violent girl.Rudeus shook his head and sighed, but his face did not show distress; instead, it was full of confidence, clearly planning to do something."Should I go call Eris?"Ghislaine, who was sitting in the chair, now stood up and asked."I'll go!"Rudeus refused, shaking his head with a confident smile."Oh."Ghislaine immediately sat back down after getting her answer, leaning against the chair, and continued to sit quietly with one muscular, coffee-colored thigh crossed.If this were the island nation of his previous life, she would undoubtedly be the leader of a group of delinquent girls.Rudeus straightened his back, held his head high, and walked out of the classroom with incredibly confident strides, going to find the truant Eris.If it had been yesterday, he definitely wouldn't have done this.But today was different; he was now wearing the protective divine artifact, the Three Treasures Orb, bestowed upon him by Big Brother Cid, and he didn't believe he still couldn't subdue the red-haired violent girl.First, he went to Big Brother Cid's room and directly opened the door.Before his eyes appeared a blond young man, shirtless, revealing perfect muscle lines and an eight-pack, holding a hammer and forging something."Is something wrong, Rudeus?"Cid paused his movements and turned to look at the doorway."Uh… I wanted to ask where Young Miss Eris is."Rudeus gave a dazed reply, his eyes fixed on Cid's flawless physique, his throat unconsciously swallowing, and shock surging in his heart.They weren't that far apart in age, so why was the difference in physique so great?Rudeus thought of his own scrawny physique, and an inexplicable feeling of inferiority arose.Comparing oneself to others truly makes one furious."Eris is in the courtyard; why isn't she at your place?"Cid released a wide-range Observation Haki, immediately knowing Eris's exact location.Although it was a question, he roughly knew what was happening now.Eris must have skipped class, because the same thing happened in the original story."Thank you, Big Brother Cid!"Rudeus thanked him, then closed the door and left.His Observation Haki was not yet powerful, and the range it could cover was not very large, so finding people would be more difficult, but fortunately, he had Big Brother Cid's help.Cid looked at the closed door, picked up the hammer next to him again, and continued forging tools.The materials for forging tools were actually not enough; he would need to buy more when he went to town later.If only the system space could store items, how great would that be; it could achieve multi-world interoperability, and he would then possess the resources of an entire world.The problem of materials would not be an issue at all, and he could also use some special materials from other worlds.Of course, this was just a thought.
Chapter 52 Rudeus: Alice, you don't want to…In a courtyard within the Boreas Residence.As Rudeus approached, his Observation Hakisuccessfully sensed Eris's presence.In his Observation Haki's perception, she was squatting and petting a fluffy cat?Rudeus continued forward with a puzzled expression.When he saw it with his own eyes, he realized his earlier perception hadn't been wrong.The usually ill-tempered Eris was actually here, smiling with affection, her hands caressing a cute cat covered in white fur.Was this still the red-haired violent girl he knew?!Could it be an illusion?Rudeus rubbed his eyes hard, some light novels he had read in his previous life inexplicably surfacing in his mind, wanting to confirm if the scene before him was real."Hmph!"It wasn't until the white kitten ran off upon seeing the sudden arrival of Rudeus, and Eris let out an angry hmph, turning her head to glare at him, that he confirmed it was real.He truly wasn't under an illusion.Rudeus rubbed his nose, his expression a bit awkward, as he had caused the kitten to run away."Eris, it's class time now."However, he quickly regained his composure and walked quickly to Eris."So what!"Eris adopted her unique arrogant stance, a disdainful expression on her small face, completely disregarding what Rudeus had said.Seeing Eris's contemptuous gaze, Rudeusimmediately felt annoyed.She clearly thought he was easy to bully!Sure enough, she was still that ill-tempered red-haired violent girl.The previous scene must have been fake."What will it take for you to come back with me to study arithmetic?"Rudeus asked Eris, controlling his emotions, trying to keep his tone as normal as possible.He was an adult; he shouldn't stoop to the level of a child under ten.Upon hearing this, Eris pouted her small mouth and spoke confidently."You can't even beat me. Talk to me when you can."Rudeus was slightly taken aback, then a slight curve suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth; clearly, what Eris was saying now was exactly what he wanted."How about we try something different? Let's see if you can injure me. If you can, you won't have to attend my classes anymore. If you can't, you must go back and attend class obediently.""Huh?"Eris showed a surprised expression, wondering if Rudeus's brain had gone awry.After all, wasn't the outcome obvious!She would definitely win!"You're not scared to agree, are you?"Rudeus showed a mocking expression, looking somewhat punchable."Shorty! What did you say!"Eris instantly clenched her small fists and suddenly swung a punch forcefully at Rudeus's face.The punch whistled through the air; if it connected, it would surely shatter a nasal bone.Rudeus's face changed in surprise, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. Just as he was about to dodge to the side, his body was suddenly covered in a dazzling golden light.The Three Treasures Orb's automatic defense function had activated.Seeing this light, Rudeus remembered that he had the Magic tools given to him by Big Brother Cid, and immediately decided to stand still.He allowed Eris's attack to land on the golden light covering his entire body.Thud!The two collided, emitting a heavy sound. The golden light rippled like river water, easily neutralizing Eris's attack.An attack of this level couldn't even cause a crack in the Three Treasures Orb.Eris's face was slightly stunned, her eyes staring at the golden light in front of her in shock."What is this thing?!""This is a Magic tools. You only need to provide it with a small amount of magic power to use it. Its name is the Three Treasures Orb, and it provides defense."Rudeus smiled and began to explain the knowledge to Eris, who looked as if she were a country bumpkin."You cheated!"Eris's small face flushed red, and she punched Rudeus again, looking extremely angry, but it was completely useless."It's no use. The Three Treasures Orb can defend against attacks up to an advanced level."Rudeus stood still, looking content.Is this what it feels like to show off?Eris didn't listen; she just kept punching and punching until her body became tired, forcing her to temporarily rest."Eris, come back to class with me. You don't want Sauros and the others to know about this, do you?"Rudeus looked at Eris, who was sitting on the grass, feeling a bit helpless. He could only try to see if threatening her would work.Eris was panting heavily, her rosy cheeks covered in sweat.In her mind, a scene of her grandfather's disappointment appeared, and she unconsciously clenched her small fists, along with some green grass on the ground, in her palm.Eris stood up without a word, ignoring Rudeus, and walked directly towards the classroom for arithmetic and literacy.Rudeus scratched his head, not understanding why, but the outcome seemed good, so he quickly followed Eris back towards the classroom....Meanwhile, elsewhere.Inside the familiar reception room, Cid and Philip sat facing each other on a sofa, with two steaming cups of black tea on the table between them."Cid, speak now."Philip looked at Cid with a serious expression, ready to listen intently.Just now, Cid had asked him to dismiss all the servants and the butler from the room, saying he had something important to discuss.Cid nodded, and his first sentence caused Philip to fall silent."Someone in the residence intends to harm Eris.""Who is it?"Philip didn't doubt the truth of the statement but instead asked."The butler Thomas."Cid said the name calmly.Upon hearing this, Philip narrowed his eyes, quickly recalling his memories of Thomas to confirm whether what Cid said was reasonable.Soon, he found that Thomas indeed had suspicious points."Do you have proof?"Cid didn't answer; he simply handed a pair of glasses to Philip.Philip took the glasses in confusion, looked down, and found that there was an image being displayed on the lenses. He immediately began to watch intently.After a while, he placed the glasses on the table in front of him, sighing at the same time."I never thought Thomas would do such a thing."However, he could probably guess Thomas's motive for doing so; it was nothing more than related to things Eris had done in the past."What do you want?"Philip was a smart man and guessed that Cid must have some purpose; otherwise, he wouldn't have told him about this matter.Cid's lips slowly curved upwards; it was comfortable talking to smart people."I need Lord Philip to cooperate in putting on a play. Don't you want to know which noble is behind the plan to kidnap Young Miss Eris?""A play?"Philip's expression froze, followed by a stir in his heart.Because he truly wanted to know who the noble planning to kidnap Eris was.So he agreed directly, and then spent the following time slowly discussing the plan with Cid...
Chapter 53 Sid: You are all my wings![P.S. I'll write a few chapters in the Demon Slayer World as a transition, no more than five chapters. Please try to keep up with the updates, and also, a little bit of Request for Updates (urging for updates). This book is currently in a crucial recommendation period, whether it survives or not depends entirely on you all!][After all, you wouldn't want to miss a jobless fan fiction where the male lead snatches the three primary color heroines, right? Hehehe! Please don't mind that last sentence~~]Demon Slayer World.While Cid's main body was discussing the perverted noble matter with Philip, a "major event" was currently unfolding on his clone's side!That is, the 'love triangle' known as the'scum-male killer' had finally descended upon him!Because Kanae had accidentally discovered the intimate relationship between Mitsuri Kanroji and Cid today.Next to the Butterfly Mansion, inside the house where Cid resided.Cid, Kanae, and Mitsuri Kanroji were all sitting side by side on the bed in one room, their expressions varying greatly.Kanae's expression remained gentle, but upon closer inspection, one could still discern a hint of anger and helplessness.Mitsuri Kanroji, on the other hand, was restless, her pair of fair, tender hands constantly intertwining between her legs, which were clad in long white socks, revealing her nervous state.This was normal; she was, after all, a third party who had intervened midway, commonly known as a mistress.However, it seemed this term hadn't appeared yet at this time."Kanae, I also plan to marry Mitsuri Kanroji in the future."Cid looked at Kanae with a resolute gaze as he stated his next intention, as he was not a man who liked to run away.Kanae had not yet reacted, but Mitsuri Kanrojiimmediately covered her red lips with her hand, and large, crystal tears streamed uncontrollably from her eyes.Her small, fair, and delicate face was filled with emotion.A small patch of the bedding on the bed was dampened by her tears.Kanae looked at the tearful Mitsuri Kanroji, put a hand to her forehead, directly showing her helplessness, along with a hint of fear."Cid, I don't disagree, but don't you have anything to say to me?"Men in this era generally had three wives and four concubines. She was actually mentally prepared for this, because how could such an excellent man like Cid only have one wife?She was now, instead, very afraid that Cid would abandon her.Hearing Kanae's slightly trembling voice, Cidimmediately stood up and embraced her tightly, gently comforting her in her ear, dispelling the unease in her heart."I will not abandon Kanae, so I now want to ask for your consent to let Mitsuri Kanroji join our family."Cid maintained eye contact with Kanae, his pair of resolute, sparkling golden eyes quietly looking at her.Kanae's fear slightly dissipated upon hearing Cid's words, and coupled with his current act of seeking her consent, what else could she do?Kanae stroked Cid's dazzling golden hair, a compromising expression appearing on her fair face, then walked up to Mitsuri Kanroji and extended her hand."Oh my! There's nothing I can do about Cid~! Who told me to fall in love with you~! Miss Kanroji, please take care of me from now on!""It's me who should say, please take care of me."Mitsuri Kanroji immediately stood up in a hurry, extending her hand with a moved expression, her inner emotions surging like a tide.Miss Kanae is so gentle, truly so gentle, thank you for your tolerance!Cid couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief as he watched the two girlfriends getting along. Fortunately, he had a high emotional intelligence, otherwise, it might not have been so easy to resolve the love triangle....Over the next few days, Cid and Mitsuri Kanrojiimmediately entered a passionate phase, doing everything a couple could do.Mitsuri Kanroji is 19 years old now, an adult~Of course, she also didn't forget to be intimate with Kanae; she certainly couldn't favor one over the other.On a side note, when Kochou Shinobu learned of his relationship with Mitsuri Kanroji, she came to cause a scene once, but she was easily suppressed by Kanae.Since her own sister had no objections, although she felt very jealous, she still didn't act out and could only secretly bottle it up.The second position should have been hers!Today, Mitsuri Kanroji's holiday ended, and she needed to return to her assigned area, so she reluctantly bid farewell to Cid and left.With Mitsuri Kanroji's departure, Cid's expression returned to calm.Having lived in the Demon Slayer World for so many years, his own strength had also grown, and it was time to start considering solving the problem of Kibutsuji Muzan."First, Kibutsuji Muzan is very timid; he cannot be startled, otherwise he will definitely choose to lie low and outlive me."Although he was now a perfect being with infinite lifespan, he didn't want a rat existing in the shadows; he had to kill him in one go.After much thought, he realized that using the method from the original work seemed to be the most suitable.But before that, he needed to do some things.When he watched the Demon Slayer anime in his previous life, he didn't only like the beauties of the Demon Slayer Corps; there were also some in the demon camp that matched his aesthetic preferences.For example, Daki, who had the most beautiful appearance in the Demon Slayer World; although she was a demon, one had to admit that she indeed possessed an astonishingly beautiful face.As a man who adheres to the principle of 'not missing a good woman, not wasting a bad woman,' he naturally couldn't let her go; they all had to end up in his bowl....Two days later, Mount Natagumo.Cid looked at the dark, dense, and eerily emanating black mountain forest ahead, his expression calm.This place in the anime was where Lower Moon Five- Rui resided, along with his so-called family members.Now, the development is different from the original work; the Lower Moonss haven't appeared for a long time, so it's uncertain if Rui is still there, and there's no movement in Observation Haki yet.If he wasn't here, then he would feel a bit regretful.After all, Spider Mother truly had the charm of a married woman; not only was she ambitious, but her figure was also petite; she was truly a rare gem~!Cid put away his scattered thoughts, put on a dark mask, and resolutely rushed into Mount Natagumo, the speed of his rapid running causing the black trench coat he wore to flap loudly.Upon entering the forest, he did not run on the ground but rather leaped among the many tall trees.At the same time, he expanded the sensing range of his Observation Haki to the maximum, but ultimately, he could only cover one-third of Mount Natagumo.Cid's lips curled into a slight smile at this moment, because he discovered the graceful figure of a beautiful woman in his Observation Haki's perception; it was Spider Mother."I didn't expect my luck to be so good; I just came here and found the target."After muttering this, he immediately flashed away from here and simultaneously moved closer to the location of Spider Mother in his mind.What surprised him a bit was that Rui's family was indeed still here, which was strange...
Chapter 54: Nada Spider Mountain, the plump new brideOn a massive rock within Mount Natagumo, a beautiful woman with a petite figure, dressed in pristine white attire, and possessing long silver-white hair, sat gracefully.This beautiful woman had a delicate face adorned with vibrant red dots, adding a unique charm to her appearance.The bright moonlight illuminated her, and coupled with the surrounding eerie and dark environment, it involuntarily sent shivers down one's spine.[Spider Mother's beautiful picture~]Spider Mother was idly playing with the white spider web between her hands, her enchanting face, full of the charm of a married woman, was expressionless.Just then, a large hand patted her shoulder, and a low voice came from beside her ear, instantly making her hands tremble, and intense fear appeared in her eyes."What about your duty as a mother?""Eeek! Rui, I'm sorry! Mama will go back now! Right now!"Spider Mother didn't notice the strangeness in the voice, because she was extremely scared at the moment.She just wanted to get some fresh air and then go back immediately; now that Rui had found her, she would definitely be subjected to another brutal beating.Thinking of this, her small, plump body trembled violently from fear, cold sweat beaded on her pale cheeks, and the white spider web in her hand slowly fell to the ground.When she endured her fear and slowly turned around, her expression instantly froze.Immediately after, a stinging pain came from her pale, slender neck; a finger had deeply pierced into her body, seemingly injecting some liquid.Cid smiled slightly, gently stroking Spider Mother's pale cheek with the red circular dots with his other hand, and spoke a sentence."You will become my subordinate and atone for your sins."Suddenly, a large amount of Demon King's blood furiously poured into Spider Mother's body, causing numerous blue veins to protrude on her skin, and her beautiful face became slightly distorted.Cid withdrew his finger, stood there with his arms crossed, silently watching Spider Mother, who was now kneeling on the ground, her face etched with pain.The amount of blood he gave her was just within her tolerance, so there would be no danger, though the process might be a bit painful.After all, she still had Kibutsuji Muzan's blood in her body, which needed to be completely eliminated.As a perfect being, eradicating the blood of lower-ranked demons was incredibly simple.Cid's blood in Spider Mother's body was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, frantically devouring the inferior cells belonging to Kibutsuji Muzan.Kibutsuji Muzan's cells could not resist at all; they could only flee in disarray, trying to escape these terrifying demons that had suddenly arrived.While eliminating Kibutsuji Muzan's cells, the blood was also rapidly strengthening Spider Mother's power, which had now reached the level of a Lower Moons.After a long time, Spider Mother lay weakly on the dirty ground, her expression blank, revealing a look as if she had been broken.Her pale skin was covered in a large amount of fragrant sweat, and her soaked white attire clung to her, vaguely revealing some alluring curves.Cid slowly walked up to her, squatted down, and smiled."How do you feel?"Spider Mother was now his subordinate; her life was entirely at his whim, and he could read her thoughts anytime, anywhere."Master."Spider Mother crawled up, hastily knelt in greeting, her eyes filled with deep terror.Because this handsome blonde man in front of her had directly and forcibly seized control from Kibutsuji Muzan, he was an extremely terrifying person.Could he be the legendary demon who overcame the sun?!"Yes, it's as you think."Cid sensed Spider Mother's thoughts and gave her the answer."Eeek! I'm sorry!"Spider Mother apologized in a panic, not daring to continue speculating in her mind, fearing that the terrifying man in front of her would show displeasure."I already know everything about you. You don't need to worry about those fearsome things, because I am a benevolent Demon King. From now on, you shall be called Jorogumo."Cid stood up, silently looking at Spider Motherkneeling before him."Yes, thank you, Master, for bestowing this name."Jorogumo lowered her head and replied, then suddenly looked up with a worried expression."Master, should we leave here now?"Cid sensed Jorogumo's thoughts, and a amused expression appeared on his face."Are you worried about Rui coming?"Upon hearing this, Jorogumo's eyes indeed showed a hint of fear; clearly, she was still very afraid of Rui.This was normal; she had been subjected to Rui's abuse for years, so it was impossible for her not to feel afraid. This was a psychological effect that wouldn't heal so quickly.In fact, one thing surprised Cid.When he had just probed Jorogumo's thoughts, he discovered that Rui was now not Lower Moon Five, but Lower Moon One!He truly hadn't expected such a significant change.What unknown events had occurred during that time?Cid didn't dwell on it; whether it was Lower Moon Five or Lower Moon One, it was all the same. Neither could be a match for his current self.At this moment, a figure rapidly approaching appeared in his Observation Haki perception.It was Lower Moon One—Rui!Seeing this, Cid chose to stand still and wait for his arrival. It saved him the time of searching; truly a considerate demon.Jorogumo looked at Cid, who stood motionless in front of her, her face somewhat fearful, but she dared not leave on her own, so she could only stand still as well.Soon, a small figure appeared on a tree branch not far from the two of them.He had white hair that covered his left eye, and like Jorogumo, his face had some red dots. It was Rui, who had come to find his mother.Rui's gaze swept over, confirming that his mother was indeed here, but there was also a human wearing a black mask beside her."Mother, you snuck out again."Rui ignored Cid and instead directed his icy gaze at Jorogumo, who was showing fear.Jorogumo looked at Rui in the distance, her delicate body trembling slightly uncontrollably. She was about to speak in defense, but then she thought of Cid beside her and immediately closed her mouth.Her current master was Cid; he was a demon who overcame the sun, so Rui definitely couldn't defeat him.Thinking of this, Jorogumo instantly felt much more at ease.At this moment, Cid reached out and touched Jorogumo's pale, dirt-stained cheek."Don't worry."The voice coming through the mask made her feel even more at ease, and at the same time, a little touched. It seemed everything this master had said earlier was true.He was a benevolent Demon King."Mother, why did you abandon us?"At this moment, Rui flashed from the tree branch and appeared in front of the two, his expression so gloomy it seemed water could drip from it. At the same time, he finally turned his gaze to Cid."You lowly ant."Rui's gaze was incredibly cold and filled with anger, because he had just seen the somewhat intimate behavior between Jorogumo and Cid.He would never allow his family to be taken away!!!
Chapter 55: The Lower Moon Five? It's the Lower Moon One!"Blood Demon Art: Threaded Net!"Rui quickly moved his hands, and a white spider web instantly enveloped Cid.These spider webs were as hard as diamonds, capable of easily cutting human flesh into pieces, and slicing nichirin blades was no problem at all.Cid's face under the mask was calm. He watched the white spider web surround him, and his fingers on the hilt of his nichirin blade twitched slightly.Swish, swish, swish!Black sword light flashed, and the surrounding white spider webs all turned into fragments, scattering on the ground.Cid hadn't moved a single step, his posture remaining exactly as before, showing no trace of having drawn his nichirin blade.Rui's eyes narrowed. As his body rapidly retreated backward, Cid's figure suddenly vanished from his original spot.Alarm bells immediately rang in his heart. His pale hands turned a vibrant blood-red, and he shot out a swirling red cocoon woven in front of him."Blood Demon Art: Threaded Rotation!"This was made from his strongest threads, much harder than diamonds. This Demon Slayer in front of him definitely couldn't cut through it.Cid maintained his charging posture, with no intention of dodging.He once again strengthened the Armament Hakicovering his nichirin blade, making the blade even darker, like a bottomless abyss.Swish, swish, swish!Countless black slashes were unleashed. The red spider web in front of him once again turned into scattered fragments, just like before, and Cid's charging speed was not hindered in the slightest.Rui's eyes widened, his face filled with unconcealed shock.These were his strongest threads! How could they be so easily cut apart?He was the Lower Moon One now!He was countless times stronger than when he was Lower Moon Five! How could he lose?A black sword light flashed. Rui couldn't react in time, and his head was severed from his body. His bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at Cid, filled with unwillingness.The headless corpse fell to the ground with a "thud," gradually turning into black ashes and dispersing.Cid sheathed his nichirin blade, not sparing him another glance.Jorogumo watched Rui's body gradually turn to ash, her expression one of shock.Rui was the Lower Moon One, yet he was cut down by her master with a single strike. This showed how unfathomable her master's strength was; even the Upper Moons might not be a match."Take me to the other demons."Cid walked up to Jorogumo at this moment and gave her the command."Yes, Master!"Jorogumo swallowed nervously, a hint of fear in her eyes. She immediately walked ahead, leading the way to find the remaining demons of the spider family.Cid followed behind Jorogumo, watching her full and sexy small body sway. Sensing the panic in her heart, he couldn't help but speak."You don't need to be afraid. As long as you obey me, you can live very well.""Yes!"Jorogumo nodded heavily at his words, a sigh of relief escaping her heart.With Cid's words, she felt much more at ease. As long as she didn't choose to court death, her master probably wouldn't kill or punish her.Soon, Cid, led by Jorogumo, arrived in front of a gloomy wooden house.Through his Observation Haki, he sensed three more demons inside the wooden house: Spider Father, Spider Brother, Spider Sister, and Spider Daughter.Cid wasn't interested in Spider Sister or Spider Daughter, so he directly ordered Jorogumo."You handle the demons inside."Jorogumo was startled by the command, then nodded forcefully, a look of vengeance appearing on her pale, charming face.Those demons in the house had often bullied her. Now that she was stronger than before, she had enough confidence to kill them.Jorogumo flashed into the house, and intense sounds of fighting immediately erupted, accompanied by non-human, terrifying roars.Cid stood calmly outside, waiting, without the slightest worry.After all, Jorogumo's current strength was at the level of an Upper Moon Six. Dealing with those small fry inside would certainly be incredibly simple.As expected, after a short while, the fighting stopped, and a refreshed Jorogumo emerged from the wooden house, her pale, perfect bare feet visible.Her pristine white attire was now stained with blood, her silver-white hair floated gently behind her, and the smile on her face looked somewhat sickly.When she reached Cid, she immediately knelt down, simultaneously composing the slightly sickly expression on her face."Master, your subordinate has not failed you.""Mm."Cid responded blandly. Seeing Jorogumo's body become unusually dirty, he decided to find a water source to clean up and rest.Before long, he led Jorogumo to a clear lake, personally helped her clean her body, and then they returned together to the tent he had set up earlier...At the same time, Infinity Castle.This was an inverted, distorted dimension created using Blood Demon Art of space, where everything within the space was controlled by the user.At this moment, the sound of breaking glass suddenly echoed from a room filled with experimental items.The one who made this sound was a handsome man in a white suit, none other than Kibutsuji Muzan."Another demon has escaped my control!"He forcefully shook off the glass shards from his palm, allowing the wound to heal instantly. His face became hideous and terrifying, and his tone was chillingly cold.After several centuries, another demon like Tamayohad escaped his control, which made him feel uneasy, and most importantly, afraid.He checked Rui's memories and discovered that there was a powerful Demon Slayer next to that demon, but because he was wearing a mask, his exact identity was unclear.Furthermore, since he didn't use a Breathing Method, it was impossible to tell who he was.Thinking of the Demon Slayer Corps, Kibutsuji Muzan was reminded of the young Demon Slayer wearing Yoriichi Tsugikuni's earrings, and the wounds on his body began to throb faintly again.Even after all this time, the wounds inflicted by Yoriichi Tsugikuni still gave off a burning sensation. That damned fellow.Kibutsuji Muzan's face was grim. He used his power as the Demon King to issue a command to all Upper Moon demons, simultaneously transmitting a memory to them.It was the memory of Cid killing Rui, and Jorogumo's figure was also in the scene.The command was: if these two are seen, kill them without mercy!Rui's background was very similar to his own, which was why he had given him special treatment.He just hadn't expected him to die like this."The Demon Slayer Corps has existed long enough, and they always come out like flies to annoy me. These ants need to be dealt with quickly."Kibutsuji Muzan's voice was low. He had no more patience for the Demon Slayer Corps, who kept popping up, and he was also disappointed with the Lower Moonss.Since Rui was dead, Enmu also had no reason to exist.With a thought, Enmu, who was far away, instantly exploded and died with a blissful smile on his face.He could have as many Lower Moons demons as he wanted; he didn't care about these incompetent failures.
Chapter 56 Shy Tamayo, Yushiro's RequestThe next morning.Cid strolled out of the tent, followed by Jorogumo, whose complexion was now rosier and whose pale skin had become even smoother and more delicate.He hadn't expected it to be Jorogumo's first time; she truly was exquisite."Master, where are we going next?"Jorogumo followed closely behind Cid, her eyes fixed on him, the intoxicating scenes from last night still vivid in her mind."To Tokyo."Cid smiled slightly, took out Black Tiger from his Devouring Pouch, wrapped his arm around Jorogumo's slender, soft waist, and jumped up, landing steadily on its back.Black Tiger immediately moved its sturdy limbs and headed towards Tokyo.Jorogumo looked at Black Tiger beneath her, a look of profound surprise on her face.Her master was truly extraordinary; she decided she would follow him faithfully from now on. This kind of life should be much happier than before.… … … …Upon arriving in Tokyo, Cid temporarily settled Jorogumo in one place, then went alone to Tamayo's residence.As soon as he passed through the Blood Demon Artset up outside, Yushiro's figure appeared before him.He wore a sour expression, looking displeased."Yushiro, where is Lady Tamayo?"Cid didn't mind and politely smiled as he asked Yushiro."Tch, in the basement."Although Yushiro didn't want Cid to see Tamayo, he still revealed her location.If he continued like this, Lady Tamayo would surely be unhappy again, just like last time, when she ignored him for at least a week.Such punishment was terrifying, and he didn't want to experience it again."Thank you."Cid thanked him and went directly to the basement.After walking down the stairs and through a long white corridor, he arrived in the basement, where Tamayo was visible, engrossed in her research."Lady Tamayo, how is the potion coming along?"Cid quietly walked over to Tamayo, lowering his head to look at her beautiful face as he asked.Tamayo put down the item in her hand, a captivating blush appearing on her beautiful face, and the unique scent that reached her nose made her lovely eyes a little dazed."It still needs a little more time to complete, but it won't take too long."Cid nodded, a mischievous smile forming in his heart as he observed Tamayo's strange expression.He discovered that ever since he became a perfect Demon King, the aura he emitted seemed to have a special effect, similar to a succubus in novels from his previous life.However, its effect wasn't so potent as to be universally appealing to both men and women.At most, it could only gradually increase the affection of the opposite sex around him.Tamayo was currently like this; after a long period of interaction, her affection was already very high, and she would generally not refuse any excessive requests.Thinking of this, Cid gently pulled Tamayo into his arms.Tamayo's expression changed in surprise; feeling the firm touch from behind, the blush on her face bloomed rapidly like a fresh flower."Mr. Cid…"Tamayo's expression was shy, her full, mature, soft body struggled slightly, wanting to break free from his embrace, but it was as if she wasn't putting in any effort.Clearly, her inner sense of modesty was at play.Indeed, seeing that struggling was useless, Tamayosimply gave up.Cid looked at Tamayo, who had stopped struggling in his arms, and intensified his advance. To her shocked gaze, he lowered his head and kissed her vibrant, full red lips.When he lifted his head again, Tamayo's pale cheeks were flushed with an unusual redness, her full body felt weak, and she was leaning against his chest."Lady Tamayo, I like you."Cid held Tamayo's soft, voluptuous body tightly, leaning close to her ear and whispering softly.Upon hearing this, Tamayo immediately trembled and straightened up, her pale, delicate hands gently pushing away the thick chest in front of her."Mr. Cid, it's impossible for us."Tamayo shook her head in refusal, a hint of sadness in the depths of her eyes.She still had a mission to complete, and she carried profound sins, making her completely unworthy of being Cid's wife.She didn't even have the right to exist in this world.Just then, a warm embrace tightly held her again."Lady Tamayo, that's not your fault. It's all Kibutsuji Muzan's fault."Cid reached out and gently stroked Tamayo's flushed cheek, comforting her.Upon hearing this, Tamayo's eyes immediately became moist, and crystal tears slowly swirled within them, as feelings of deep emotion surged within her.The conviction she had held for hundreds of years wavered in that moment.… … … …When Cid walked out of the basement, he suddenly ran into Yushiro, who had been waiting there.Cid chose to ignore him and walked straight ahead, intending to return to the Demon Slayer Corps to inform Kagaya Ubuyashiki to prepare in advance.The potion Tamayo was making would be completed soon, and then dealing with Kibutsuji Muzan would be foolproof.The potion she was currently making was somewhat different from the original, as its efficacy was much stronger, thanks to the help of Cid's blood as a perfect being.Just as Cid's figure was about to disappear around the corner, Yushiro suddenly spoke."Wait.""Is there something?"Cid stopped, turning back with a puzzled expression.Yushiro didn't answer immediately, a very conflicted look on his face, as if he was about to say something difficult to utter.A silent atmosphere enveloped the two of them, and Cid frowned slightly."If there's nothing, I'm leaving."He decisively turned around, preparing to leave."Wait! I want to ask you for a favor!"Yushiro finally gritted his teeth and spoke, simultaneously bending down and kneeling on the ground, his head bowed very low, his backside high in the air, striking a very standard dogeza pose.Cid turned around again, and seeing this, a clear look of surprise appeared in his eyes.After all, Yushiro disliked him greatly, and it was hard enough to get an apology from him; now he was kneeling, which was truly unexpected."What is it?"Cid did not tell him to stand up, but asked in a calm tone."I want you to change Lady Tamayo's mind, because only you can do it."Yushiro looked up slightly, stating his request, a hint of pleading in his eyes.He didn't want Lady Tamayo to die; that scoundrel Kibutsuji Muzan was not worth her doing such a thing.If he could make Lady Tamayo change her mind, he would do anything.Cid fell silent at this, not expecting Yushiro's request to be this.He had just barely managed to persuade Tamayo; what was this all about?At this, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips as he looked at Yushiro."I can, but are you sure you'll agree to the conditions I propose?"Yushiro's face lit up with joy, and he nodded vigorously with an unusually firm gaze, showing his determination to save Tamayo."Very good. My condition is that you no longer hinder my time with Lady Tamayo, and I might even need your help at crucial moments."Cid grinned, a devilish smile on his face… … …
Chapter 57: Heading to the Bustling Town, Action BeginsMushoku Tensei World.When Cid bid farewell to Tamayo and headed to the Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters with Jorogumo, his main body welcomed Eris's first day of vacation.In the past, she never had any vacation time because there wasn't much she needed to learn.The sudden vacation made Eris feel bored immediately.During the vacation, she didn't have to study magic, arithmetic, or reading and writing, and the same applied to swordsmanship, so she was going to be very free today.Eris wore a lazy expression as she wandered aimlessly through the mansion, occasionally encountering beast-eared maids hurrying by.Whenever these maids saw her, they would pause to greet her politely, and she responded to all of them with a perfunctory expression.Just then, she saw two figures ahead that looked unusually familiar, and without any hesitation, she immediately ran forward quickly.Upon arriving closer, she discovered it was indeed Cid and Rudeus.And looking at them, they seemed to be preparing to go out.Thinking of this, Eris struck her unique, arrogant pose and looked up at Cid."Where are you two going!"Cid looked at Eris who had suddenly appeared before him, and at her question, he replied with a calm expression."We are planning to head into town for a stroll.""I'm going too!"Upon hearing this, Eris immediately raised her head to express her wishes.Cid did not refuse and nodded directly to agree to her request.Because he had originally planned to go find her, he hadn't expected her to come to him on her own.Rudeus secretly tugged at the corner of Cid's clothes at this moment and spoke in a low voice."Big Brother Cid, can we not bring her along?"An unwilling expression appeared on his face at that moment.If they brought Eris along, this trip might become somewhat unpleasant.Cid shook his head slightly, rejecting Rudeus's request.After all, the upcoming action was necessary; changing Eris's personality again was one point, and there was another, even more important point.Seeing this, Rudeus showed a helpless expression and could only agree to bring Eris along.Eris prepared to head to the town, and Ghislaine, her personal bodyguard, did not accompany her this time; this was naturally Philip's order.If Ghislaine were allowed to follow, Thomas and his cohorts would never make a move, and they wouldn't be able to follow the vine to find the perverted noble behind them....On the other side, after receiving the news, Thomashurriedly left the Boreas Family mansion and rushed to a house.He pushed the door open forcefully and walked in, and unbearable sounds immediately came from inside the room.Thomas's expression did not change; he simply tapped the table on the side with his hand to signal his arrival.Sure enough, upon hearing the sound, the noises in the room stopped immediately. Soon, a woman with disheveled clothes walked out from inside and quickly left the house.Following her, a Bald Strong Man walked out. He was bare-chested, revealing a slightly paunchy belly, was unshaven, and emitted a foul stench from his body.Thomas frowned slightly, as the smell on the Bald Strong Man was clearly exceptionally pungent."What the hell! Coming at a time like this!"The Bald Strong Man sat on a chair with an unhappy expression.He had paid for her, but hadn't finished enjoying himself, so he naturally didn't have a pleasant look for Thomas in front of him.Thomas didn't care and simply mentioned the matter regarding Eris.Immediately, the Bald Strong Man's expression turned from gloomy to sunny, and a greedy look appeared on his face."Do you think there's any chance this is a trap?"Thomas was different; he still couldn't believe that the opportunity had arrived so quickly, and furthermore, Ghislaine was surprisingly not accompanying her this time.It was really hard not to suspect it was a trap."Impossible!"The Bald Strong Man didn't care about this remark; his heart had already been blinded by greed.They hadn't left any traces, and the Boreas Familycouldn't possibly have discovered anything unusual in advance.Upon hearing this, Thomas stopped overthinking and began to prepare for the upcoming action....The Fortress City of Roa was the largest town in the vicinity, and the city was specifically divided into the Noble Residential District, the High-End Shopping District, and the Adventurer Shopping District.But even in the Adventurer Shopping District, the items sold inside were things that ordinary commoners basically couldn't afford, with prices all above one gold coin.Cid led Rudeus and Eris straight past the lavishly decorated Noble Residential District and arrived at the High-End Shopping District.Rudeus's eyes lit up as he looked at the dazzling array of goods in the shops, but thinking of his empty purse, he couldn't help but withdraw his gaze.He didn't even have a single gold coin in his pocket and couldn't afford anything at all.However, most of the things in these shops were actually expensive clothing, with very few practical items; they could be considered shops specifically for noble consumption.Cid also had no interest in the items sold in the High-End Shopping District and continued to lead the two forward, soon arriving at the Adventurer Shopping District.In the Adventurer Shopping District, one could already see some scattered open-air vendors; it wasn't like the High-End Shopping District which was entirely composed of storefronts.Cid carefully recalled the memories in his mind, remembering that the "Higgss Summoning Magic" book seemed to be here, at a bookstore.Only...He looked at the shops on both sides of the street; there were quite a few bookstores, and they weren't far from each other, so it might take some time to find it.Although he possessed Observation Haki, he still needed to be within range to investigate."Big Brother, should we temporarily split up? I want to go check out other places."Rudeus had been observing, and seeing that Cidseemed to show interest in the bookstores, he immediately made the suggestion with a hint of anticipation."Hm? Sure."Although Cid was a bit confused, he still nodded in agreement."I'm going with you!"Just then, Eris suddenly placed her hands on her hips, lifted her snow-white face slightly, revealing her slender swan-like neck, and looked at Rudeuswith an arrogant expression."Huh?"Rudeus's previously excited expression seemed to have been doused by a basin of cold water, instantly turning into a bitter face."This place isn't interesting! I want to go somewhere else!"Cid was a bit surprised to hear this, but thinking about it, it didn't conflict with the plan they had discussed earlier, so he turned his head to look at Rudeus again."You two go together, and you can be responsible for protecting Eris's safety while you're at it."In the end, Rudeus still brought Eris to other places with a bitter face, but his inner thoughts had not changed.At the same time, he was very confident in his own strength; protecting her would be simple, as the strength of a Water Saint-Level Mage was nothing to sneeze at.If there really were bad guys, he would just blast them into ashes with a giant fireball, ensuring that even their own mothers wouldn't recognize them.Cid stared at their retreating figures, took out the glasses from the Devouring Pouch and put them on, used the flying insects to monitor them at all times, and then used Observation Haki to search for the book he wanted.
Chapter 58 Book - Sig's Summoning MagicCid quickly checked several bookstores, but unfortunately, none of them had the books he wanted, so he once again used Observation Haki to investigate a bookstore.He closed his eyes, carefully searching every book in the store.He saw several familiar books again: "The Legend of Perugius," "The Three Swordsmen and the Labyrinth," and "Traveling the World," all of which he had at home.This shows how famous these books are; they are basically available in every bookstore.Cid shook his head slightly, skipped them, and accelerated his search.As time passed, he quickly opened his tightly closed eyes again, and joy was reflected in his brilliant golden pupils.Because the book he was looking for was in this store.Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately walked into the bookstore.The bookstore owner saw that a customer had finally arrived and quickly stood up to greet him, but when he saw it was just a young blonde boy, the joy on his face faded considerably.Although the boy had a handsome appearance, the clothes he was wearing were clearly cheap at a glance, definitely not the child of a noble.People not from the noble class generally have little spending power, so the joy that had just appeared naturally diminished."Young man, what can I help you with?"The shop owner, impressed by his handsome appearance, still did not treat him too perfunctorily and slowly walked forward to ask politely."How much is this book?"The bookstore wasn't large. Cid walked straight to a bookshelf, accurately pulled out a thick book from it, and looked at the shop owner.Upon hearing this, the shop owner looked up and saw that the title on the book's cover was "Higgss Summoning Magic." He immediately held out both hands and spoke."Ten gold coins, no bargaining.""I don't have money. Can I exchange it for something else?"Cid was not surprised and asked him calmly."What! You have no money and still come to buy things!"The shop owner exclaimed, and his face quickly turned ugly."I know you're in a hurry, but don't be. Take a look at this."Cid maintained a calm expression, took a knife from his Arms and handed it to the shop owner.The shop owner took the weapon with a suspicious look, but his finger accidentally got a small cut from the sharp blade, and a trickle of crimson blood slowly flowed from the wound."What a sharp knife!"Although he wasn't an adventurer, he could easily tell that the knife in his hand was not ordinary and must have come from a seasoned craftsman."Are you trying to trade this knife?"The shop owner regained his composure and looked up again.Cid nodded in response."This isn't enough. After all, this isn't a Magic tools, nor is it a magic-enhanced item. It's just a relatively sharp knife, not worth a very high price."Cid smiled slightly and pulled out another identical knife from his Arms.Seeing this, the shop owner's eyes gleamed, and he made up his mind."Deal!"Ultimately, Cid exchanged two ordinary knives made with Divine Machine Hundred Refinements for the "Higgss Summoning Magic" book.In the original work, this book was supposed to be bought by Nanahoshi Shizuka, and the method of summoning the Lamp Genie inside played a role in the Labyrinth Arc.He bought this book because it recorded the technique of drawing magic circles, which would be of great help to him in making tools.With the cooperation of magic circles, the tools he made could have more diverse functions.Cid first put the book into his Arms, then placed it into his Devouring Pouch space.He stared at the image on his glasses, showing a strange expression, because the location of Rudeusand Eris was somewhat peculiar.But when he thought of Rudeus's true nature, this matter didn't seem too strange.Cid shook his head and immediately began to head towards them.It wouldn't be good if they left the surveillance range of the flying insects....Roya Town, Red-light District.Rudeus and Eris walked along the slightly narrow street.Through the doors of the houses, one could see some mature women inside, dressed revealingly, showing large expanses of fair skin, and with heavily made-up faces.The laws of Asura Kingdom did not prohibit this industry, so what they did was legal and would not be punished."What are we doing here?!"Eris looked at the houses next to them and the women of pleasure inside, her red eyebrows slightly raised, and asked Rudeus, who was ahead of her.Rudeus stopped, turned his head, and gave an embarrassed smile."We're just passing through here; we're going further ahead."It's really troublesome to bring Eris along; I can't even go inside to take a closer look. This trip can at most be considered scouting."Hmph! Disgusting!"Eris snorted coldly, and a look of disgust appeared on her fair little face.Although she wasn't very clever, she could still guess what Rudeus was thinking now; it was nothing more than the same as those greasy fat pigs.Upon hearing this, Rudeus's smile froze, and his mood suddenly became somewhat displeased.This brat's personality is truly annoying. He really wants to teach her a good lesson.But thinking of her physique, which was even stronger than his, he could only reluctantly abandon this idea."Let's leave here."Rudeus turned around with a regretful expression and led Eris to continue walking forward.After several complex turns, a dimly lit alley quickly appeared ahead. After passing through the alley and taking another turn, they could return to the adventurer shop district.Just as Rudeus was about to continue forward, two fast-approaching figures with swords suddenly appeared within his Observation Haki Perceptionrange.The two figures came in a pincer movement, one in front and one behind, clearly targeting the two of them.The sudden change startled him, and a feeling of panic welled up inside. By the time he recovered, they had already appeared at the corners of the front and back."Stone Wall!"Rudeus immediately cast earth magic, creating two tall, thick brown earth walls in front and behind him for defense.He completely forgot that Eris, who was behind him, was not within the earth wall's protection.Because his first thought was to protect himself.Eris was behind Rudeus and was directly gagged by the Bald Strong Man who ran from behind. He then quickly carried her and fled into the distance."Got her! Let's go!"The other Bald Strong Man heard this, immediately gave up on breaking through the brown earth wall in front of him, decisively turned around, and desperately fled into the distance.Their operation this time was very risky, and they had to use the secret passage to escape quickly and get away before the lord received the news.Rudeus, through his Observation Haki Perception, learned that Eris had been captured by them, and his face instantly became very ugly.He didn't expect that their target was not himself, but Eris, the young lady of the Boreas Family
Chapter 59 Thomas: Do you understand your current situation?At this moment, Ghislaine, who had been hiding in the shadows, stealthily followed the burly man who had taken Eris.This was an order from Philip, who was responsible for protecting Eris's life; if a fatal threat appeared, she needed to intervene and resolve it.Cid, also hidden in the shadows, had already detected Ghislaine's presence, as he possessed Byakugan with clairvoyance and Observation Haki.Philip, as expected, did not completely entrust Eris's life to himself; this situation was normal, after all, she was his daughter.He shook his head, feeling speechless at Rudeus's clumsy performance just now, although with his strength, he indeed couldn't defeat those two intermediate swordsmen.But he really didn't expect Eris to be taken away so easily.He flashed directly in front of Rudeus, who was about to go after Eris.Rudeus was surprised when he suddenly saw Cid in front of him, then lowered his head, a look of shame appearing on his face."Brother Cid, I'm sorry, I didn't protect Eris well.""Let's talk about that after we rescue Eris."Cid shook his head, directly pulling Rudeus along and rushing in the direction the burly man had fled.Their figures were within the perception of his Observation Haki; they couldn't escape.However, Cid's goal was not to catch up, but to follow closely behind the burly man, preparing to wait until the purpose of this matter was achieved....Following closely, the two burly men, including Thomas, had now successfully escaped Roa and were driving horses towards other small towns.By the time they reached another small town, it was almost evening.The horses they were riding were all exhausted and collapsed on the ground, foaming at the mouth, clearly due to the intense long-distance travel."Should we exchange her for ransom or sell her?"Inside the small house, Scarface asked Bald Strong Man."Of course, sell her!"Before Bald Strong Man could speak, Thomas's face became exceptionally hideous and terrifying, revealing malicious eyes as he answered first.Bald Strong Man frowned slightly, looking at Thomas with an unfriendly gaze, the greasy flesh on his fierce face trembling slightly."You only provided information; don't expect to get much money."Scarface had already secretly reached for the sword hanging at his waist, ready to strike at any moment."I don't want money; all the money is yours. I'm only doing this for revenge."Thomas wisely raised his hands, clearly expressing his intention.The two burly men exchanged glances upon hearing this, and the tense atmosphere in the room immediately eased, followed by hearty laughter."Hahaha! Then let's sell her as you wish!"Bald Strong Man forcefully clapped Thomas on the shoulder, the foul odor emanating from his body lingering around Thomas's nose, making the latter feel a bit dizzy."Heh heh, please have a meal with this money."Thomas barely managed to suppress the feeling of nausea, gave a dry laugh, and took out some money from his Pregnant and placed it on the table.The two burly men's eyes lit up, and they unceremoniously took the money.They also did not refuse Thomas's subsequent request, agreeing to let him teach Eris a lesson, but only if there was no serious injury.Otherwise, it would affect the selling price of the 'goods'.Thomas entered the room where Eris was being held, and looking at her, bound and lying on the ground unconscious, a sinister glint appeared in his eyes."Get up!"He forcefully kicked Eris in the abdomen, and her small body immediately rolled over once, her fair, flat abdominal muscles twitching slightly.The intense pain made her awaken and open her eyes, curling up tightly on her side on the ground, fine cold sweat appearing on her fair forehead, her gaze angrily glaring at Thomas."I'm definitely going to make Ghislaine kill you!"Upon hearing this, Thomas's face couldn't help but show a strong look of mockery, and he covered his face with his hand, laughing maniacally with a twisted expression."Hahaha! Do you think you're still in the Boreas Family? Do you understand your current dangerous situation? Recognize reality!"After Thomas finished speaking, he kicked again with force.Eris's fair cheek immediately became swollen, her bright white teeth even fell out of her mouth, and sweet blood slowly flowed from the corner of her lips."You just wait! I'm definitely going to kill you! I'm definitely going to kill you!"Despite being beaten, Eris still lay on the ground with a furious expression, even uttering harsh threats.Thomas's forehead veins bulged, and he immediately increased the intensity, starting a storm of punches and kicks, while also describing Eris's miserable life after being sold.In a hidden spot outside the small house, Rudeus, sensing the situation through Observation Haki, showed a look of unbearable pain on his face, and his inner guilt grew even stronger."Brother Cid, why aren't we rescuing Eris?"Cid's expression was calm, also constantly paying attention to the situation inside the house in front, though his clenched fists were somewhat white."This can change Eris's unruly personality."Rudeus's expression froze, and some speculation couldn't help but surface in his mind: Could this be Brother Cid's plan? Otherwise, how could he be so calm?He said no more, continuing to hide quietly there.Inside the house, Thomas's forehead was now covered in beads of sweat, and his breathing had become slightly rapid; he temporarily stopped the beating.He looked at Eris, lying on the ground, her eyes vacant, her face covered in sticky blood, and showed a relieved expression."You never expected to have a day like this, did you!"Thomas left a final remark, forcefully closing the door and leaving.Eris lay weakly on the ground, looking at the room that had returned to silence, feeling the intense pain throughout her body.Tears slowly flowed from her slightly dim ruby eyes, and for the first time, fear emerged in her heart.But before her emotions could fully brew, a warm hand suddenly appeared on her cold cheek, emitting a vibrant green light.With the appearance of the green light, Eris found that her body no longer hurt, and even the few missing white teeth in her mouth had regrown."Are you alright?"Cid felt a little helpless; he had ultimately come out early due to his emotions, indeed there was a big gap between him and the Immortal Venerable."Cid!"Eris looked at the golden-haired young man who had appeared in front of her, a look of intense joy on her small face, and immediately stood up, letting out a cry of surprise.At the same time, her feelings of dislike for him all dissipated."What's all the noise about!"Hearing the commotion, Bald Strong Man angrily pushed open the door.However, upon seeing an extra person in the room, his expression immediately froze."Cid! Help me kill him!"Eris's eyes showed hatred, and she pointed a slender finger at Bald Strong Man, who was standing at the doorway, her tone like a command."No."Cid did not follow her words, but stood still and coldly shook his head, refusing."Eh?!"Eris's expression instantly became blank, her finger held in mid-air, remaining still, and she turned to look at Cid beside her, appearing somewhat oddly adorable.
Chapter 60 Alice: Scum! Keep yelling!"Kid, I don't know how you snuck into the room, but now that you've met me, consider yourself unlucky."Bald Strong Man's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he reached for the sword hanging at his waist, just as he was about to charge forward, a low voice suddenly sounded in his ear.Moreover, he felt a chill at his neck."Are you sure?"Cid held a knife, his eyes indifferent, the sharp blade resting against Bald Strong Man's throat, a small amount of crimson blood seeping out.If he exerted even a little more force, there would be another head here.Gulp!Bald Strong Man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes filled with terror.His body stiffened on the spot, maintaining the posture of holding the knife in mid-air, and the back of his clothes were soaked with a large amount of cold sweat.He was a mid-level Swordsman, so why didn't he notice the kid's movements at all?At this moment, Thomas and Scarface looked at the scene before them, their minds equally shaken, not daring to act rashly.Cid withdrew his knife, flashed back to Eris's side, just as he had said, he wasn't going to make a move.Eris looked at him, her expression constantly changing, the arrogant look on her face slowly disappearing, as her grandfather's words echoed in her mind.One must have the attitude of someone asking for help.Cid wasn't her guard; if she wanted help, she needed to ask him.Thinking of this, Eris bit her red lip lightly, her delicate, fair little face quickly flushed, and she shyly grabbed the red long hair near her hairline.Then, she tied two long, cute braids on the side of her head, commonly known as instant twin tails.Eris maintained this appearance and blinked at Cid."Please… please help Eris kill them, meow~!"The sudden, strange change made the tense atmosphere on the scene pause.Everyone in the field looked at Eris; Cid thought she was very cute now, while Bald Strong Man and the others found her very hateful.My life is over!!!"Of course!"Cid smiled slightly, drawing his knife again, and the dark Armament Haki quickly covered it, its shiny black color almost reflective.His leg muscles propelled him, and in the blink of an eye, he flashed in front of Thomas and the two others, swinging his blade."Sword God Style · Lightning · Light Katana!"Swish swish swish!As the black sword qi, covered in Armament Haki, rapidly slashed out, three shrill screams instantly echoed in the room, and several sword-shaped gaps appeared on the walls of the simple wooden house.Rudeus, who was watching from the doorway, quickly dodged, almost being hit by the flying black sword qi."Seriously, is Big Brother Cid doing this on purpose?"Rudeus's forehead broke out in cold sweat, and he moved even further away.In the distance, Ghislaine quietly watched the several black sword qi flying out of the house, her eyes flickering, still very confident in Cid's strength.Inside the house, Thomas and the two others who had screamed were now pale, cold sweat constantly seeping from their skin, caused by intense pain.Because all three of their arms had been severed, and a large amount of blood was flowing out; if they weren't treated in time, they would surely die from excessive blood loss.Eris looked at the three people who were dealt with in an instant, a hint of envy in her eyes; she also wanted to become that powerful.Cid walked up at this moment, directly gripping Scarface's neck, then injected demon blood into him, transforming him into a demon.The other two were the same, all transformed into demons.As they showed pained expressions during the transformation, Eris asked in confusion."What is this?"She didn't understand the situation before her, and why Cid hadn't killed them directly."I need to ask for some information; you can kill them yourself later."Cid sat down on a chair and turned to answer.Once they were transformed into demons, he could freely access the memories in their minds, making it easy to find the perverted noble behind them."Is that so!"Upon hearing this, Eris stopped asking, returning to her usual arrogant expression as she watched the scene, though a hint of happiness emerged in her heart.After all, she could personally take revenge soon.Soon, Thomas and the two others successfully transformed into demons, their severed arms regenerated smoothly, and they felt their strength had even improved.As they fell into self-doubt, Cid quickly browsed through all the memories in their minds.Then, with a thought, he directly took forceful control of their bodies.Then, a smile appeared on his face as he looked at Eris, who was standing beside him."Eris, you can go kill them now."Eris said nothing, nodded, walked forward, clenched a pinkish-white fist, and swung it forcefully at Thomas's face, then extended a fair, strong leg to kick him.Bang! Bang! Bang!She used all her might to beat them, returning all the pain and suffering she had endured earlier.Thomas's eyes were bloodshot; he could only watch Eris violently beating him, completely unable to move his body.Not just Thomas, Bald Strong Man and Scarfacealso knelt on the ground, their faces "willingly" accepting Eris's "gifts."Rudeus, who had just entered the room, showed a surprised expression at the scene, and after observing the slightly frenzied Eris, he slowly walked up to Cid."Big Brother Cid, what's going on now?"Rudeus lowered his voice, fearing that Eris might vent her anger on him.Cid shrugged, his meaning obvious: it was exactly what he was seeing now."Scum! Fat pigs! Do you know who I am! How dare you treat me like that!"Eris's expression was frantic; she suddenly felt that using her fists wasn't satisfying enough, so she immediately picked up Bald Strong Man's knife and plunged it into his stomach.Pfft!"Ugh…"Blood overflowed from Bald Strong Man's mouth, and a pained expression appeared on his fierce face.Eris pulled out the knife and stabbed him again; she showed no fear at the bloody scene before her, only the pleasure of revenge.Rudeus averted his gaze, feeling somewhat nauseous, and a thought emerged in his mind.Is she going to kill someone later?As a NEET in his previous life, he had some aversion to killing, and since reincarnating into another world, he had never killed anyone.Eris temporarily stopped her movements, looking at Bald Strong Man, whose wounds could regenerate and heal, and fell into thought, her wise gaze secretly looking at Cid.However, she didn't overthink it, but instead directly plunged the knife into Bald Strong Man's chest, her target clear: the fatal heart.Seeing this, Cid, with a thought, cooperated with Eris to successfully end his life.The other two were naturally not spared, given the same treatment and then killed with a single stab.Eris, who had killed for the first time, let the knife in her hand drop to the ground, and looking at the bloody scene in the room, she merely frowned slightly.She didn't feel any discomfort in her heart.She only felt a sense of distaste, thinking her clothes and body were so dirty…
