Finding himself stuck between a demon and a ghost, Yuki let out a sigh lamenting what kind of life he was living before he asked Ashiya "By the way, how do you intend to create a body for him?"
Ashiya seemed surprised by such a stupid question as he replied as a matter of fact "Well, there are many ways, we can kill someone and give him their body, although this one is very demanding for the compatibility between the spirit and the body and has a high chance of rejection to happen…"
Yuki quickly cut him off while swiping with his finger and said in disappointment before he continues his twisted explanation which was probably directed at him"Just go next…"
"Other than this, we can create a homunculus, my lord dabbled a little in alchemy and he can create a body for him that way… mmm we can also create a golem and let him inhabit it, Oh we can also clone or heal his body directly if you know where we can find his remains…" Ashiya stated multiple choices, and Yuki almost yelped in surprise at the last one
"Ahum his body is gone, but the ghost said that my body is very compatible with him so we will just go with cloning my body" said Yuki, and Ashiya looked at him suspiciously before he said "Sure… But if it doesn't work, it will cost you even more to try again"
"Tch, everything is about money for you is that it?" yelled Yuki with a righteous anger but Ashiya wasn't fazed at all before he replied "As if you are any different"
The two stared at each other for a while before Yuki let out a sigh and said "I will come back later when Maou's back from work"
"Okay" replied Ashiya and made sure to observe every movement Yuki made in case he tries to steal something until he saw him leave the room and he finally let out a sigh of relief "Finally those two ghosts are gone…"
….
A few minutes later, Ashiya heard a knocking on the door and Hanzo's nervous voice echoed "Ashiya it's me"
Ashiya opened the door and saw Hanzo standing in front of the door while fidgeting, then he turned to the left and saw that Emilia was about to enter Yuki's room and he noticed that she was carrying many bags full of groceries and an evil delighted smirk immediately covered his face
"Hi Emi, it must have been hard carrying all of those bags, did Hanzo help you out? hehehhe"
Emilia was slightly creeped out by Ashiya's behavior and didn't understand that he was happy thinking about the depressed look Yuki was going to have when he sees how she was spending their money, but Emilia's reply was beyond his expectations as she said "I wish he could, but his hands were already full you creep" and she immediately entered the room leaving a shocked Ashiya who didn't want to look at Hanzo.
"Umm, Ashiya, I swear she forced me into doing this, please don't take away my computer" said Hanzo while fidgeting but Ashiya was still looking away from him… fearful that his nightmares would come true if he turned around
"Ashiya…" Whispered Hanzo again, and Ashiya finally mustered his courage as Yuki's conversation with him echoed like a curse '…You will know when they come back, we are doomed Ashiya DOOMED DOOOOOOOMED'
Hanzo watched silently as Ashiya turned around robotically and with extreme reluctance, he looked down and saw the many bags surrounding Hanzo and ended up gritting his teeth so hard and shivering while glaring at the fidgeting Hanzo.
"I swear she was the one responsible for this, she kept saying that we were rich now since we stole that money from Yuki, please it's not my fault" said Hanzo while putting on a helpless look on his face but Ashiya didn't but it all, and his unproven suspicions were right because this bastard Hanzo in front of him was shopping happily with Emilia and thinking that this was a good chance to pay them back for leaving him out of Mashiro's welcoming dinner…
"Don't worry" said Ashiya as a dark demonic aura kept gushing out of his body "My lord and I will teach you the price of spending our hard-earned money" then he grabbed Hanzo along with the groceries and shot room 202 one last look before he entered his room and Hanzo's pained and muffled screams quickly echoed from it as he kept begging for forgiveness…
Meanwhile, in room 201, Yuki received a similar shock when he saw Emilia, this was because he was splitting the expenses with her so it pained him to see her be so 'wasteful' but in the end, he did his best to calm himself down and focused on the paper in his hand again…
Name: Tanaka Koji
Age: -
Height: 190 cm
Weight: 86 kg
Record: 10-1
Odds: 2 – 1
Yuki's current record was 8-0, and so far he only faced normal humans that were skilled in some form of martial art or another, some were even street fighters and thugs, but nothing tough to handle for his superhuman strength and speed. This time however, he got a weird feeling from this guy Tanaka, especially since he saw him once in person and the guy seemed disgusted by him and initiated this fight himself…
Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.
Of course, accepting the fight was ultimately up to Yuki, so he ended up putting a condition that Tanaka should pay 1 million yen if he wanted to fight him, but to Yuki's surprise, the latter accepted right away
'This guy… I feel like he's either a ghoul or he's sent by the arena's management to test me, if this is the case, I will need to be careful in the future' thought Yuki to himself.
And he couldn't be any more correct about this, because the one that sent Tanaka to test him is none other than Kuro, the champion of the arena himself, as for him being a ghoul is just a coincidence…
"Emi, I'm going out for a bit, I will be back for dinner" Said Yuki as he prepared himself to go to the arena
"Going out again… what are you doing every day this late in the evening" she shot him judgmental look like a wife mistrusting her husband but Yuki only thought 'Bitch I'm putting bread on the table here, no it's not even just bread anymore…' His eyes wandered to the bags that Emilia was slowly unpacking and they hurt slightly from the gruesome sight…
"I like jogging during this time since there aren't too many people out that's all, anyways I will be back later" said Yuki
Emilia let out a sigh before she said the same thing she says everyday "Just be careful okay?" and Yuki replied eerily as always "Don't worry I'm not alone…"
….
Yuki didn't lie as he took a liking to jogging to the arena, and since people started recognizing him, he was quickly led into a waiting room without much delays…
His reputation was slowly increasing among the fans of such bloody fights as well, and they were excited to see him fight the monster Tanaka that destroyed all of his opponents except for one…
"Who do you guys think would win this one? Do you think Yuki will luck out this time as well?" said one person
"Luck out? Not with that monster Tanaka, that guy punched a hole on the arena one time!" replied a more avid fan
"Ehhh, he's this strong? But Yuki's record isn't that much different from him" said the first one
"Listen buddy, don't let Yuki having a 0 in his record trick you, before that guy Tanaka lost, he even defeated someone with a 15-0 record easily! I was there, that guy was a very experienced fighter and everyone called him Viper for his fighting style that was both fast and tricky, yet Tanaka easily smashed him with one punch and ruined his fighting career" replied the second one with a crazed look in his eyes
"It seems like Yuki's going to lose today then, hopefully he doesn't lose too miserably" said the first one…
Meanwhile, a black-haired teenager waited for the fight with a happy look on his face, it was none other than Izaya who as always, put a huge bet on Yuki "How dumb, some people actually still think Yuki's just lucky hehehehe"
Someone else who was waiting to watch the fight from a VIP balcony was Kuro! And beside him was Diana who was waiting eagerly to watch the fight as she asked Kuro "Do you think that kid would win again?"
Kuro remained silent for a while before he said coldly "I don't know, that's what makes this fun"
'Then how about you try to look like you are having fun' thought Diana before her attention was picked by the announcer.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today we have a very special fight. First, we have the lucky warrior Yuki! With an unblemished record of 8-0-0, He won all of his fights in spectacular fashion with his opponents not landing a single hit on him! Meanwhile, on the other side, we've got The destroyer himself Tanaka Koji! With a record of 10-1-0 and destroying all of his opponents just as his title indicates!"
Diana watched as Yuki and Tanaka approached the octagon in the middle of the arena slowly… Yuki's title as the lucky warrior wasn't the first choice people decided to use for him, and if not for huge protests by him and the underground arena wanting to keep some face, they almost went with the nut destroyer following the suggestions from the fans…
Anyways, as both Yuki and Tanaka entered the arena under the hyping of the announcer and the screams of the fans, the announcer finally announced the start of the fight as he yelled at the top of his voice "LET THE CARNAGE BEGINS!"
Yuki observed Tanaka who calmly cracked his neck and started approaching him"Sorry kid, but today you are going to suffer"
"Eh? You are so ugly, I feel like giving you my mask" Replied Yuki with a disgusted look on his eyes, making Tanaka's eyes shine with a cold light as he said "I can't wait to rip you apart and see what's making me feel this disgust"
Then he immediately rushed at Yuki with an incredible speed that no human could achieve 'Hmmm, at least 2 and a half times the speed of an average person' thought Yuki calmly while watching the nearing Tanaka.
'let's test his reaction speed' thought Yuki before he sent a kick at Tanaka's ghoul balls and leaned back at the same time to avoid his punch.
Surprisingly, Tanaka dodged his kick, and Yuki watched in amazement how the force behind his punch created an air pressure that caused his hair to flutter slightly
'Getting hit by this one would hurt if I was a normal human, his strength is around 10 points, he's above average in this regard in terms of ghouls' thought Yuki before he squatted down avoiding a terrifying high kick that was going for his head and used this opportunity since Tanaka was out of position slightly with his back turned to him and used another ultimate skill of his he never used before.
The commentators heard Yuki mutter "One Thousand deaths Jutsu!" before he locked his hands together and extended his index fingers before he plunged them at Tanaka's secret weakness…
The whole arena went silent, some ghouls that recognized Tanaka thought that this was going to be ineffective thanks to his strong body and regeneration, but imagine a thick rock pillar getting plunged into your ass… this's what Tanaka was feeling right now as he fell on the floor of the arena and wailed in pain while covering his bleeding ass.
"One thousand deaths Jutsu…" Muttered the commentator in a daze, and the audience finally woke up from their shock as they planted their assess firmly into their seats to protect them from any sudden attacks…
"How vicious…" whispered Diana who covered her ass while Kuro simply watched with a frown since the epic fight he was expecting was ruined but a laugh soon echoed from the crowd, and it was from none other than Izaya who was laughing so hard while holding into the strangers around him which annoyed them to no end…
"I will kill you!" Said Tanaka who was still in pain and his eyes started to turn into that of a ghoul but before they could finish transforming, Yuki landed his famous killing blow by attacking him in the nuts causing him to lose consciousness from the pain…
Another silence covered the arena before the announcer yelled "WINNER THE LUCKY WARRIOR YUKI!" and the arena immediately erupted after him with cheers "NUT DESTROYER!" which brought a frown to Yuki's face as Izaya laughed even harder, after all, he was the one that manipulated the people to get him this unholy title….
