Chapter 222: Tsuchimikado Motoharu! Musujime Awaki!
Seeing that Etzali finally gave up and blessed them, Wu Yan grinned for an all's well that ends well.
"MaaMaa, looks like things settled themselves innit-nya?"
Slightly surprised, he turned towards the source of the sound. He found another familiar figure standing there, a figure he had seen multiple times on screen slowly made his way out of the shadows.
Wu Yan flinched at the increasing feeling of deja vu, although he is in the MC's place instead of the original MC.
Spikey blonde hair that reminded one of a hedgehog, a Hawaiian shirt with floral patterns, pale blue sunglass, golden necklace around his neck and long arms, almost reaching his knees. The figure was tall and from his overall look, one would most likely deem him a gangster.
Listening to that Kyushu accent and that annoying nya suffix at the end of his sentence, he got curious at the comedian looking guy who appeared here.
On the surface, this guy is Touma's neighbor and classmate, one of the idiot trios alongside Touma and Aogami Pierce. By the way, Tsuchimikado Motoharu is a to the bones.
In actual fact, he is a double agent working for many spy organizations, one of which is the Anglican Chruch's Necessarius. He will drink blood, backstab the world, go against humanity, all of it he will do if it means he can protect the balance of the world. (Tl: Well, given that he's Siscon sergeant, he's probably doing it all for his step-sister)
This guy? Seriously…
Looking at Tsuchimikado Motoharu who still had a gangster's grin on his face, Wu Yan felt like the world lied to him. He just can't connect this guy with the Tsuchimikado Motoharu who had a complex background in the original story.
He looked the part, it's just that Wu Yan has this urge to punch him for some reason.
He's the latest guy added to his wish-to-punch list.
Unaware that he had been added to Wu Yan's to-punch list, he glanced at Etzali before turning back to Wu Yan with an obnoxious tone and manner of speaking.
"Yo, that mysterious bro over there-nya, you mind handing over the guy at your side over to me-nya?"
Wu Yan stared at Tsuchimikado Motoharu before replying.
"I have nothing to lose by handing him over to you guys and I don't know what to do with him so your appearance here is really a Godsend…"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu's grin widened when he heard his answer. Wu Yan's next sentence froze that grin in its track.
He glanced at Tsuchimikado Motoharu before shrugging.
"But, I had a change of mind."
"Why…"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu knew about Etzali, how could he not with his identity. It appears Etzali had been defeated by this opponent so he has to be strong, he thought.
He might even be an lv5!
If at all possible, Tsuchimikado Motoharu didn't want to fight this guy. However, Etzali had too much significance so he can't just leave him here but if Wu Yan won't let him go then the only option he has now is to take a hike…
Just as Tsuchimikado Motoharu was about to run the moment Wu Yan take a step towards him, Wu Yan's next sentence caused him to fall face first onto the ground.
"Your face displeases me…"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu climbed up from the ground and held his aching nose. He protested with an unusually high tone.
"Just for that-nya?!"
"damn right!"
"Have I ever wronged you before?"
"Your aura screams 'punch me'."
Tsuchimikado Motoharu stayed silent until he fell down onto his knees. He turned pale and if there was any wind, he would probably be gone with the wind as he turned to dust.
Seeing that he had dealt a heavy blow to his psyche, he inwardly guffawed. He's pretty damn proud that he managed to pull his legs good this time.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu stood up albeit in an unsteady gait as he surrendered with his arms in the air.
"Please let me handle that guy…"
"Maa, now that you said please I have to let you now don't I?"
Wu Yan snickered. Of course, Tsuchimikado Motoharu knew he was just busting his balls, why else would he so readily cooperate.
Does this guy know me?
Tsuchimikado Motoharu curiously examined Wu Yan, he can't recall ever coming across this guy before though. But then, why did this guy talk to him in such a familiar way, not to mention, he knew where to hit him with his jokes.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu decided to ignore this and he walked towards Etzali. He said something to Etzali and Etzali nodded but not before looking really crestfallen.
Seeing as Etzali nodded, Tsuchimikado Motoharu smiled, inciting a feeling to hit him in Wu Yan once more.
"Hey bro, thanks-nya…"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu bowed and thanked him with a grin. He then continued in a different tone from before.
"Bro has got some skills, else you wouldn't be able to defeat this guy over here…"
Wu Yan raised his guard against Tsuchimikado Motoharu, he hadn't forgotten his other epithet, the backstabbing blade.
If he isn't careful enough he might just get sold so hard even his mama wouldn't recognize him.
He replied in a cautious manner.
"What are you planning on doing, you walking punching bag?"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu's smiled froze and he forced a laugh.
"Nya, bro, stop busting my balls-nya, why would I be planning on doing anything-nya…"
Wu Yan curled his lips at him.
"Knowing you…"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu decided not to continue the chat. Under the sunglasses, he scrutinized Wu Yan, he felt a heavy pressure coming from Wu Yan yet at the same time, he felt a bit curious about Wu Yan.
With his background, it's very easy to gather any and all intel on any one individual. Weird enough, this guy before him seemed to be off the grid.
A normal identity, a normal life, this guy is a delinquent for all intents and purposes, However, this notion of him had been shattered by now. Ignoring all else, just the fact that he was strong enough to beat Etzali meant that all previous data gathered on this guy is most likely obsolete or wrong.
Wu Yan didn't know what to say. To think he would meet Tsuchimikado Motoharu so early into the game, what's more, after the fact that his abilities were exposed.
With that guy's abilities, it's probably not going to be easy to hide his true power any longer.
For the third time today, another familiar figure appeared, breaking the atmosphere of the scene.
Wu Yan and Tsuchimikado Motoharu were shocked at the appearance of this individual. Wu Yan had a bit of helplessness mixed in his grave expression. Tsuchimikado Motoharu on the other hand seemed to have connected some dots as his eyes lit up.
It's a female with her dark red hair tied into two low ponytails. She wore a winter uniform over her shoulders while revealing her upper torso save for the chest which she covered by wrapping her chest with pink bandages. Her hooters were squeezed so her cleavage was rather obvious to the observers. She also had a ridiculously revealing mini-skirt the likes of which would reveal her place where the sun don't shine should she bend over even just a bit. And then there is that belt which appears to only serve as an accessory at her waist.
She looked like she's trying to get people to commit crimes.
Wu Yan recognized her the moment she appeared just as he did Etzali and Tsuchimikado Motoharu.
Musujime Awaki!
