Leinster looked at the na [Sealed Demon King] above the shorter guy’s head and almost slapped his own cheek.
Ahhh! One of his very first audiences!
No wonder this guy didn’t appear in the comnt section, only the familiar [Detective Conman] and his number one hater, [Leinster Slayer].
It turned out like Oton Lover, he was also pulled into the [Ruins]?
But...wait.
Leinster scanned the young teenager from head to toe and blurted out in disbelief.
"Why are you so short? Are you still a minor?"
"Short?? I’m not short!!" Sealed Demon King imdiately jumped up and down, almost rushing to tear Leinster apart.
Seeing the energetic teenager who was probably only in middle school, Leinster had an urge to facepalm.
So one of his fans was a minor!
Leinster wanted to talk more to the boy, but the boy suddenly shrieked while pointing behind him.
"Ahhh! Watch out!!"
Leinster felt a gust of wind and imdiately side stepped while twisting his body, instantly facing the gigantic butcher knife coming towards him.
Oops! He can’t be distracted!
Just like before, the weapon changed direction and chased after Leinster, but Leinster gripped his chain tightly and the chain slowly straightened, becoming as still as a sword.
Then, Leinster parried the butcher knife with all of his strength.
Tang!
"Ugh!"
Leinster’s arms trembled and he was pushed back by several steps.
Even his shoulder was almost dislocated!
But the butcher knife was only stopped in tracks, not even wavering in the slightest.
Seeing this, Leinster imdiately took a few steps back, instantly distancing himself from the giant in the dark.
The mont Leinster let go, the butcher knife fell to the floor, once again creating a deep crate.
Boom!
Dust rose to the ceiling, obstructing everyone’s vision.
Taking this chance, Leinster ran towards the scythe guy and his fan, only stopping a ter right in front of them.
Amidst the clouds of dust, Sealed Demon King waved his hand and coughed while calling out to Leinster,
"Mister! Mister! Big brother!"
"Yes, yes, I’m here."
Leinster patted his chest and steadied his breath while secretly peeking at the scythe guy, who was standing still like a statue.
He thought that the guy would imdiately attack him, but the guy actually acted as if he didn’t see anyone?
Leinster couldn’t understand the scythe guy’s reaction at all so he could only look at the short guy who was only as tall as his chest and grumbled.
"How did you et this scythe guy? Wait, is this why you survived for so long?"
Or maybe the boy actually awakened his ability?
Sealed Demon King imdiately grimaced, his face twisted in pain.
"Ah. I wish I could find the big shot sooner. If only I awakened an ability too...ugh!"
The boy lanted for a few seconds before he revealed his secret. He even put up a mysterious expression, his face utterly serious.
"I think it’s the demon sealed in my body who helped — "
Leinster: "Speak human words."
"Oh, oh, I-I t a kind pregnant woman and was by her side until I got separated recently..."
After that, he t the scythe guy and latched onto the new big boss.
"Pregnant woman? Hyo Eun? The ghost mother?"
Leinster was taken aback.
He t the woman at the boutique but didn’t see this boy, so the boy must have been separated at that ti.
"Ah? You also know her, mister?"
Sealed Demon King looked up at Leinster in surprise when the scythe guy, who was silent all this ti, suddenly spoke in a cold voice.
"Can you guys stop talking and fight instead?"
Thump. Thump.
The sound of heavy footsteps crept closer to their place as the cloud of dust slowly dissipated.
Only then did the two people cough to cover up their embarrassnt and try to save their shaky dignity.
"Hmph. I was the one who fought that big guy twice. You were just watching, not doing anything."
Leinster remarked while Sealed Demon King smiled sheepishly.
"Mister, I’m an ordinary person, a minor on top of that, hehe."
He was already great enough to be able to survive this far, okay??
Damn it, he’s so jealous of people with awakened abilities!
The scythe guy clicked his tongue and suddenly dashed towards the giant entity in the dark, his scythe gleaming sharply, full of bloodlust.
"I’ll distract this thing."
Leaving that one sentence behind, the scythe guy imdiately swung his scythe and clashed with the gigantic ghost’s butcher knife.
Clang!
Unlike Leinster, the scythe guy wasn’t pushed back by several steps.
He even managed to clash with the gigantic ghost without losing his stance!
Leinster stared at the blurry figure in the dark with wide eyes.
Fck? Is this guy a veteran challenger?
But he appeared in the Active Ruin Zone back then. He should be a new challenger too, right?
So then, why is this guy so fcking strong? Is there a cheat? Is this fair? How does he get the sa cheat?
Leinster felt like cracking open the man’s head to see the secret but dealing with the enemy cos first, so he could only pat the boy’s shoulder and advised him earnestly.
"You stay here— ah no. Go to that aisle, yes, if you see a pile of things, stand guard next to it. My companion was resting there. You..."
Leinster paused before turning around with a resolute back.
"Please protect her."
After that, Leinster rushed towards the giant ghost, leaving Sealed Demon King baffled on the spot.
Hello? What the hell?
"Hey! Hey! Mister! Don’t leave — argghh! You guys, big shots, are always weird!!"
The boy stomped the floor but still obediently rushed towards the specific aisle and once he found Oton Lover who was buried under a pile of products, he squatted next to her, trying to make his fra even smaller than before.
At the sa ti, the two people who once attacked each other with the intention to kill abruptly join hands to deal with the "butcher ghost".
However, not far from their place, a group of challengers was running towards Leinster’s place.
Behind them...
Was a sea of ghosts.
