In an open space outside an office building.
Ryota stood with a sword in his hand, his breath short, and his face pale.
Blood spilled from the wound on his hand and fell to the ground, staining the small piece of floor that had collapsed down red.
However, a mischievous smile appeared on his face:
"I won... Even though the process was a bit difficult, I still won."
Ryota stared at the longsword in his hand, and red light flashed into his pupils.
But he didn't feel glaring at all, just felt good. He really wanted to hug this sword and caress it.
After taking a deep breath, some dust was inhaled into the nose, which made him a little uncomfortable.
Ryota subconsciously looked at the ground ahead.
A ditch nearly ten meters long, one foot wide, and half a meter deep immediately entered his field of vision, rendering him unable to see.
The ditch extended to the steps in front of the office building, splitting the steps in two.
Even the glass door of the office building behind the stairs shattered.
This is what he cut with a sword.
Not to mention the soul damage, purely in terms of physical damage it is almost the same as the shell.
Until now, Ryota couldn't believe it.
Although the body has been strengthened, and various attributes have been improved, but it must be done according to the basic law!
The only explanation is the Ming Hong Sword.
Ryota raised the longsword, looked at it carefully, and touched it again.
It was cold at first, but what was fed back to the heart was vicious killing intent and malice.
This is a magic sword.
The demonic nature can even affect the one who wields the sword, wielding it at the most reasonable angles and trajectories.
After wielding it, Ryota, who didn't know any sword skills, looked good when he swung it earlier.
As for the final strike to kill Grudge...
Ryota can feel that the Ming Hong Sword is helping him.
When a shining sword light appeared in his mind, he understood its meaning, and swung out a move that could drain his entire body's strength in an instant.
(Is it a conscious weapon… but it helps me a lot, it should be recognized by me, right? Why don't you give me a military system?)
Thinking of this, Ryota felt a little regretful.
At this time, the firefights in the office building also died down.
The battle is over.
After there was no danger, Ryota immediately let Ming Hong Sword return to his emotions.
Then sit in place and begin to rest.
Now even if there were more Grudge attacking people, it would have nothing to do with him.
As for whether the others would die or not… He who had exhausted his physical strength, was unable to control it anymore.
"Hah? What's that?"
As soon as he sat down, Ryota felt his butt being squeezed.
A beautiful crystal appeared in his hand.
...
Luckily, all of the Grudge that was spreading in this area had been cleared out.
Fortunately, it wasn't a badly hit area, and there were only 7 Grudge attacking.
Ryota cleared 5 Grudge himself, and the official party cleared 2 Grudge. At very little casualty cost, the incident was successfully resolved.
Of course it went smoothly because the official response was timely, upon noticing any sign of Grudge they took action immediately.
Otherwise, waiting for ten days, facing various Grudge that grew from swallowing countless souls… Just thinking about it made my scalp tingle!
This office building would be slaughtered in an instant.
It's not like Ryota looks down on official people.
Some people used to kill ghosts with soul force dyed bullets, how effective would that be?
And the ghosts can become stronger as long as they kill people, and they can fully support the war by fighting.
The others didn't have a killing weapon like the Ming Hong Sword, which possessed the restraint characteristic of a soul-like being. If a low-level ghost was slashed with a sword, it would basically die.
At the same time, they lacked physical fitness. In the absence of people from the Shinto Alliance and the Kendo Alliance, the official's anti-spiritual abilities were extremely poor.
At most, it can deal with low-level ghosts.
What? How did he know this information?
Ryota leaned back on the leather sofa, stared at the hot tea on the smooth low table in front of his eyes, and felt a little emotional for a moment.
People who wield power in a chaotic world often receive various kinds of preferential treatment.
Just like him now.
About ten minutes ago, he was sitting on the floor outside the office building resting, and was invited into the building by several staff members who came over with respectful expressions.
Then he was taken to the VIP room as a guest.
In the VIP room with elegant surroundings, a beautiful woman in OL clothes was already waiting here. After seeing him sit down, she skillfully made tea for him.
Ryota asked the beauties a few questions, and she answered them respectfully.
Basically Ryota knows everything.
After talking on the sidelines for a few minutes, he finally understood the official mode of operation for supernatural occurrences.
Simply put, every district in Tokyo has an office building like this, belonging to an organization specially formed by the government to fight ghosts.
It is full of psychic insiders who have signed deals.
The contents of his work, among other things, take over the supernatural natural disasters bestowed by the police, and assess the extent of these disasters. If it is not serious, they will send people to suppress it with special bullets or special props. If they couldn't handle it, they would contact the Shinto Alliance and Kendo Alliance for support there.
As for status issues... the authority's priority is higher than that of ordinary government bodies, but it is suppressed by the two major alliances.
Even though it was a cooperative relationship with the alliance, but due to the lack of key strength, they lowered their heads invisibly.
Therefore, when dealing with people with supernatural powers, they will have the most basic respect.
Just like Ryota now.
"When will your minister come?" Ryota asked the beautiful woman who served him, "I have something to ask him."
"Please wait a moment." The beautiful woman showed a formulaic smile, "The minister is currently dealing with the follow-up incident of this disaster, and he is rather busy. Let me check on you again."
After speaking, she left the VIP room.
...
At the same time, in the office behind the lobby on the first floor.
The Minister spoke to his subordinates who were investigating the information:
"How?"
"Basic information has been found, but… a bit strange."
"Strange?"
"Yeah, Ryota-sama doesn't seem to be a member of the alliance. Even before he showed his strength today, he had lived as an ordinary person, and he was living in a… Bad situation?"
"Should be someone taught by a small kendo school. Not all troops join an alliance."
The minister thought, and then asked: "How is his strength assessed?"
"The surveillance outside is capturing the process of the battle, have a look, Minister."
The reporter's subordinate pointed at the computer screen and said: "According to the analysis of various data, he should be at the first stage, but he could reach this level at the age of 17. His talent is extraordinary. Does he need to be recruited?"
"I will try it later. It is very beneficial for us to have combat power that can be mobilized outside the alliance."
The minister nodded.
"One more thing," the underling continued: "He was involved in a Grim Reaper incident 11 days ago."
"...What!?" The minister was shocked, "11 days ago? How did he survive?"
"Three days ago, there was an explosion in Hamamatsucho. According to intelligence analysis, that accident should have been orchestrated by the Grim Reaper against him, but one of his classmates died in that accident, and the person who died was named Kuroda."
