My Avatar is Becoming the Ultimate BOSS Chapter 118 - 100: The Last Three Members of the Brigade (Se

July 16th, dusk.

Number two unit Xia Pingzhou sat up from the attic, propping his right hand on the mattress, and turned his head to look out the window.

The setting sun slanted to the west, its light slowly gathering away from Tokyo, casting a crimson hue over the glass facade that was visible through the attic window.

He washed his face and went downstairs, seeing the empty coffee shop, without a trace of the kimono girl and the ninja uncle, but instead spotting a woman in a bright red dress sitting in a corner chair.

Her eyes were lowered, quietly enjoying her drink. Upon closer inspection, it was none other than number 9 of the brigade — "Bloodline."

The door was open, and the sunset light poured in. The woman’s pale golden hair was almost turned white by the sunset’s rays.

She cupped her cheek, looked at him with her crimson eyes, and curled her lips: "Tsk, typical of a cat, spending the day either napping or purring for attention."

Ji Minghuan walked over, pulled up a chair to sit across from her, and asked curiously:

"What are you doing here?"

"The Longevity Love-Chasing Old Lady ca to fight the kimono loli lady for the custody of number 12 little kitty." Bloodline joked.

In an empty place like this, she didn’t mind referring to herself that way.

"You’re late, the cat has already signed a lifeti custody contract with the kimono loli lady."

"Then you better watch out, the contract probably includes neutering the little cat. I bet every little kitty is tricked into stamping their paw on it, bloody paw prints and all..."

"Enough jokes, where did the ninja and the lady go?" Ji Minghuan shrugged.

"They went to pick soone up. Today, three mbers from the brigade are coming in on a stowaway ship from the harbor." Bloodline yawned, "The kimono loli lady didn’t want to be alone with , so she went with her butler."

"Then what are you here for?"

"Though the gathering is in five days, there are no rules against mbers eting up now and then." Bloodline smiled slightly, "I’m here to chat with you."

"I don’t speak much, talking to is boring."

Bloodline gestured with her eyes towards the thermal cup behind the counter, "Oh, Oda Takashige made you steam oat milk, said to remind you when you wake up."

Ji Minghuan picked up the thermal cup, returned to his seat, opened the lid, and took a sip. The benefit of being the lady’s cat ant sharing the butler:

He ntioned wanting sothing to drink, and Oda Takashige prepared a drink in advance;

He ntioned wanting sothing to eat, and even if the shop didn’t have the ingredients, Oda Takashige could slip into shadows and fly to the supermarket, bringing them back in just two or three minutes.

"Not bad, being treated like a little cat, huh?" Bloodline tilted her head and looked at him with a smile.

"I’m not a cat."

"Oh, I heard you beat Oda Takashige?" Bloodline blinked at him.

"Who told you that?"

"Why, your dear lady of course. She spoke in a tone as if boasting that her little kitty used its paw to kick the butler away, without a hint of sympathy for him."

"Hard to imagine, besides her cold speech, does she have any other tone?"

"Exactly, right?" Bloodline smiled, "Among the mbers, she’s the most like a robot, even Robert isn’t as much like artificial intelligence as she is."

Ji Minghuan didn’t agree but pondered over this morning’s contest.

He did defeat Oda Takashige, but it was clear on one hand that Takashige was careless, and on the other, he didn’t use his full strength.

Moreover, because the chanisms of his Celestial Driver are overwhelmingly nurous, unlike ordinary exorcists, it wasn’t surprising that Takashige fell for it.

In a one-on-one, even if the opponent is a level stronger, he has a chance to use the chess species chanism to take them down.

Thinking of it this way... Since Oda Takashige is a pinnacle dragon-level superpower user, the current power of the number two unit should be a standard dragon-level power user... a bit stronger than unit one, but not by much.

No worries, beating up Su Zimai is enough... but according to Ke Qirui, Su Zimai advanced to a second-tier exorcist yesterday, so surely her power has increased too, it’s uncertain if she’ll be beaten up badly. We’ll see how it goes.

Thinking about this, Ji Minghuan took another sip of steam milk.

Bloodline paused, glancing towards the coffee shop entrance: "Oh, aren’t they back now?"

Ji Minghuan looked up, only to see five figures slowly entering the coffee shop.

Their backs blocked the setting sun’s afterglow, casting long shadows on the ground. Apart from the familiar Ayase Origami and Oda Takashige, the remaining three were:

A boy in a blue jumpsuit with dark circles under his eyes, looking about twelve or thirteen years old;

A middle-aged man in a cowboy hat, denim jacket, and dress pants, with piercing eyes under the brim;

Finally, a short-haired girl with dyed blue hair, wearing a rock punk T-shirt and jeans, sporting a pair of sapphire earrings, her eyes shining brightly.

"Is this the newcor?"

The blue-haired girl pointed at Xia Pingzhou the mont she saw him and asked.

"Yes, Miss Lan Duoduo," Oda Takashige said, "He replaced a deceased mber, now he’s the new number 12."

Lan Duoduo pulled a chair and sat next to Xia Pingzhou, propping her chin with one hand, turning to him with a sly smile: "Hello, I am Chinese."

"Chinese, don’t act high and mighty with English." Ji Minghuan said.

Lan Duoduo imdiately switched languages, grinning as she said: "Hey handso, where are you from?"
