Chapter 214 - Troublesome Matters

"I could never let that guy go!! Hahahahahahaha!!" The bearded man, who looked unusually steady, suddenly turned around. His expression instantly became crazed as he laughed arrogantly.

Obviously, that explosion was his doing.

Although he said they were leaving, he had secretly set up extremely hidden bombs in Lexon's home using his ability, preparing to blow Lexon to bits the moment they left.

"Big brother, well done!"

"Incredible, big brother!"

"Triple six, big brother! You totally showed him!"

Several lackeys immediately showed joy, their flattery rising one after another.

"Hahaha, your big brother is just that strong! That's why I'm the leader!" The bearded man thoroughly enjoyed the flattery of his lackeys and laughed loudly.

But as he laughed, he noticed the flattery had stopped. He couldn't help but look at his lackeys.

"What's wrong? Keep praising..."

Before he could finish, he stopped too.

Because he saw the expressions on his lackeys' faces, as if they had seen a ghost.

Their eyes were fixed staring behind him.

What's happen...

Just as he was about to turn his head, he heard an indifferent voice from behind that seemed to freeze one's heart.

"You really are something."

"Who!" The bearded man turned his head sharply.

Then he discovered that the person standing behind him was the "friend" he had just mentioned.

"You're still alive?" The expression on the bearded man's face was a bit confused, and he furrowed his brows.

Lexon remained silent.

"It's a misun..." Just as the bearded man wanted to continue saying some nice things, he suddenly felt a blue light flash before his eyes.

Next, he felt his field of vision gradually lowering, and his consciousness slowly sank into darkness.

"Thud..."

This was the sound of a certain spherical object falling to the ground.

"Squelch..."

A sky-high red rain sprayed out from the cross-section of flesh.

The bearded man's headless body gradually collapsed.

"What are you do..."

Several lackeys had just recovered from the shock of their leader's death. They cried out in panic, activating their abilities or even forming the thought to flee into the Main God Space, when they all felt a blue light flash before their eyes.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

The sounds of objects hitting the ground rang out continuously.

"You... you... you..." Among the many corpses, Crane Lady's cheeks and body were covered in blood. She looked in terror at the handsome man holding the deep blue long blade, stammering in a panic.

"Can you tell me everything that happened... I'm quite curious." A harmless, gentle smile appeared on Lexon's face as he spoke to Crane Lady.

"I... you... I... I..." But Crane Lady seemed frightened out of her wits, her speech stuttering.

A blue blade light flashed.

By the time Crane Lady regained her senses, that sharp blue blade was already resting against her neck.

Faintly... beads of blood seeped out...

"If you don't speak, I'll kill you." Lexon said very gently.

Seeing this, Crane Lady's whole body trembled.

...

"In other words, the higher-ups of your Reincarnator organization called 'Blood Rain Alliance' gave you subordinate Reincarnators a powerful destructive item to push a certain special script world?"

Lexon sat on a bench in the residential area, speaking to Crane Lady, who didn't dare to stand or sit and only dared to kneel.

"Yes..." Crane Lady replied, her body trembling, and then she added in a shaky voice: "Because the Scarlet Knights leader Zhongh, who was holding the item, died in the scenario world, those people just now intended to drag me in to take the blame and atone for the sin..."

"So what is that special script world?" Lexon asked curiously.

"I don't know the name... I only know it's a world with many monsters and many heroes... The higher-ups obtained an item for 'Low-Rank Reincarnator Script World Designation', so they intended for us low-rank Reincarnators to use it. They wanted us to use that massive destructive item to fight a huge giant and complete the side quest regarding the giant, then obtain a potion that can turn one into a giant for the alliance's higher-ups to use."

Crane Lady recounted tremblingly.

After hearing her description, Lexon roughly knew which world she was referring to.

One Punch Man.

A world where an invincible, bald hero exists, who is a hero for fun.

The giant in Crane Lady's words should refer to the Giant Brother from the beginning of the anime plot, who was incredibly tall and created a bottomless abyss with hundreds of punches. As for the potion, it should be the one developed by the scientist brother that turned his younger brother into such a giant.

"This is quite interesting..." Lexon said leisurely.

If he wanted to improve his strength, this would indeed be a good world.

Lexon thought so to himself.

He thought this way because he believed that in that world, besides that invincible bald head, there were no opponents he couldn't face.

As long as he didn't provoke the bald head, he could practically run rampant.

And because of the existence of the bald head's over-the-limit combat power, it wouldn't be meaningless for Lexon to sign in at that world.

Furthermore, Lexon knew the personality of this Caped Baldy, so naturally, he wouldn't provoke him.

Spending a bit of money should be enough to settle this bald head who lived as a hermit in the city.

After all, he could get money just by shaking hands...

With his personality, he probably wouldn't refuse, right?

"Does your Low-Rank Reincarnator Script World Designation item have any requirements?" Lexon asked Crane Lady.

"What do you mean?" Crane Lady asked in confusion.

"I mean I want to go along," Lexon said.

"But you... only low-rank Reincarnators can..."

"Exactly, I am a low-rank Reincarnator."

"Huh?" Crane Lady was shocked. A low-rank Reincarnator?

Only the first and second stages are called low-rank Reincarnators. How could someone with the strength to massacre peak second-stage Reincarnators in the real world be just a low-rank Reincarnator?

Crane Lady found it impossible to understand.

But since the other party said so... she could only...

"Fine, as long as you're a second-stage Reincarnator, it's fine," Crane Lady said with a nod. "I'll come find you on the day the scenario mission starts."

"Uh... I'm first-stage," Lexon said.

"..." Crane Lady fell silent instantly, then said: "Only second-stage Reincarnators will do..."

"Aren't all low-rank Reincarnators fine... Why doesn't first-stage work now?" Lexon gazed at her.

Crane Lady almost burst into tears.

How could I have known you're only a first-stage Reincarnator!

Under the Main God's suppression in the real world, isn't a first-stage Reincarnator at most able to fight a few ordinary people? How did you slice and dice several second-stage ones like they were nothing?

"I'll be doing my promotion mission in about a month. Is there enough time?" Lexon saw her reaction and could only speak thus.

"There's time, there's time..." Crane Lady hurriedly responded.

She was truly afraid that if she were deemed useless, her head would roll on the spot.

After all, she had used and cursed the person in front of her before...

"That's good." A gentle smile appeared on Lexon's face again as he continued, "Look into my eyes."

Crane Lady could only look into Lexon's eyes while trembling.

Suddenly, Lexon's eyes transformed into the blood-red Tomoe Rinnegan.

This was the strongest eye obtained from signing in with Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"Kotoamatsukami."

Pupil power burst forth from the Tomoe Rinnegan, forcefully shooting into Crane Lady's eyes.

[LOYALTY]

Such a mark was forcibly engraved into Crane Lady's soul.
