Chapter 390: The Instant the Strongest Pain Shattered

Satomi Rentaro had not yet thought of a way to handle the aftermath when the buzzing sound of helicopter rotor blades rang out.

At the same time, the cell phone in his pocket also rang; the caller was Tenkō Kisara.

"Broly, stop slapping people around, a job for the agency has come in."

Civil Security agency work usually involves Gastrea.

"The commission we're taking this time is to eliminate a spider-type Gastrea that has intruded into the Giant Stone Monolith area, in a wild forest, and after solving it, retrieve the white briefcase it swallowed into its stomach; this commission fee is 1 billion yen..."

The boy who had boarded the helicopter turned on his phone's speaker function, and Tenkō Kisara on the other end of the microphone explained the commission details to the agency's newcomer.

"Rentaro, Enju, Broly, I've bet my next semester's tuition on this, hiring a helicopter; if another agency's people snatch it first, I'll probably have to drop out of school."

The girl declared over the microphone how important this commission was to her personally, and if she didn't have to go to the hospital for dialysis today, she would probably have come along too.

"Please, everyone, don't let my life fall into a dark valley."

"No problem, Kisara-nee, leave it to us, but remember to give us the bonus."

Aihara Enju said.

"Fine, as long as you bring back the commission item, I'll take eighty percent of the commission reward as your bonus."

Tenkō Kisara agreed readily.

"What is that?"

The helicopter pilot suddenly let out an exclamation; the three hurriedly pressed against the window to look out, only to see a six-legged giant black spider with spider silk on its legs, gliding slowly through the sky on the air currents, its gliding altitude somewhat lower than the helicopter, and just by visual estimation its size was larger than the helicopter.

"That is the target we've been commissioned to eliminate this time; please approach it."

Satomi Rentaro said to the helicopter pilot beside him.

"Eh?!"

The pilot hesitated somewhat, not wanting to risk approaching a Gastrea that could fly in the sky.

"The agency's job content is to solve it, right? Then I'll go out."

Broly volunteered.

"How do you plan to do it?"

Satomi Rentaro looked over and saw the boy raise his fist, aiming at the window.

"Wait, what are you planning to do?"

"Smash the window and go out."

Broly said as a matter of course.

"This is mid-air."

"I know."

"You know and still..."

"I can fly."

Broly floated up.

The boy quieted down, raised his hand, and pointed at the helicopter's rear cabin door.

"Don't smash the window; this helicopter is rented, if it's smashed our agency has to pay for it; use the cabin door, I'll open it for you."

Satomi Rentaro helped the boy open the helicopter's rear cabin door, and Aihara Enju jumped onto Broly's back.

"I'm going with you."

"No need, that guy isn't very powerful, I can handle it alone."

"No way, we're friends, friends fight side by side."

Aihara Enju's favorability toward the boy was extremely high right now; she was determined to fight side by side with him.

Broly was a bit helpless but still brought the girl along.

Originally, he only needed a casual strike to easily resolve the battle.

After bringing Aihara Enju along, it turned into a battle experience that required considering the girl.

Therefore, he could only act as a flying mount.

After Broly arrived directly above the flying spider, Aihara Enju unhesitatingly jumped down from the boy's back.

From high altitude, with the handsome move of a Knight Flying Kick, she kicked the giant black spider gliding in the sky downwards.

"Bang—"

When the giant black spider smashed into the forest below, it even kicked up a cloud of smoke and dust.

Aihara Enju was caught by Broly, descending together with him.

When Satomi Rentaro descended from the sky gripping the helicopter's rope ladder, what he saw was a scene of the two children cooperating seamlessly to beat the spider-type Gastrea.

Of course, Broly was completely holding back his strength, afraid he'd kill the giant spider outright and spoil the fun for the high-spirited girl.

Just like that, in a thrilling but safe manner, they pummeled this unlucky spider-type Gastrea for half a minute; as Aihara Enju jumped up and delivered a string of consecutive kicks to the giant black spider's head, cracks appeared on the spider's head carapace.

"Broly, quick, take this chance, deal a fatal blow!"

After landing, Aihara Enju shouted.

"Leave it to me."

Broly responded, coordinating to deliver a final kick to the head of the giant black spider leaning back.

"Pfft—"

The giant black spider's head along with its body was kicked into pieces; even with the Gastrea's terrifying regenerative ability, it could not recover.

"We won!"

Aihara Enju was very happy; she jumped up and shouted at the landed boy.

"Mm."

Broly, on the other hand, didn't feel much; he just looked at the spider-type Gastrea's severed limbs on the ground and suddenly had the thought of starting a fire right there to roast these meats and taste this world's specialty spider flavor.

"Is this the Seven Star Relic? I wonder what's inside?"

Looking at the white safe stained with Gastrea blood, Satomi Rentaro prepared to walk over and pick up the commissioned item on the ground.

"Bang~"

But the next moment, gunshots suddenly rang out.

"Satomi-kun, your reflexes are quick, you actually blocked the bullet. Hmm, do you still like the Initiator I gave you as a school gift?"

The masked man holding the gun said this while strolling out from the forest beside them, and following beside him was his daughter Hiruko Kohina.

"Those who want to cut someone down have all gathered together."

Hiruko Kohina looked at Broly and Aihara Enju, waved the double blades in her hand, and greeted the two of them.

"Hiruko Kagetane!"

Satomi Rentaro took a fighting stance; if it weren't for the masked man before him, Enju wouldn't have been ostracized by her schoolmates over these past two days.

And why would Broly have slapped a group of people? Thinking about having to deal with this mess when he got back, the boy's resentment toward the person before him increased even more.

"Hand over the Seven Star Relic, and I can let you go."

The boy's strength made Hiruko Kagetane feel wary; he didn't continue attacking, but said instead.

"You wish, this is a commissioned quest item of ours."

"If you want money, I can compensate you for your commission loss."

"This isn't about money..."

"Eh, not about money?"

Broly looked over somewhat surprised; he himself didn't care.

"Broly, I heard you joined the Tenkō Agency."

"Mm."

"If you can refrain from acting now, I can pay you a sum of money."

Hiruko Kagetane said as a fallback option.

Among those present, the only one he couldn't gauge was the boy.

"Sorry, unless you marry off your daughter, there's nothing to discuss."

Broly decisively shook his head and refused this kind of buyout transaction.

In his interpersonal relationships, a friend's status was higher than an acquaintance's.

Hiruko Kagetane was, to him, just an acquaintance he had met once.

"Since it's come to this, I can only fight you."

"I advise you to forget it; you're so weak, fighting me means you'll definitely lose."

Broly didn't really want to fight an acquaintance, especially since the other's daughter might change her mind.

"So confident? Then let me weigh your strength, Strongest Pain!"

Hiruko Kagetane snapped his fingers, and a repulsion field was directionally unfolded from his finger.

The speed was very fast.

The boy who charged at him throwing a punch was directly blown away by the invisible repulsion field.

That feeling was just like a small truck crashing into his body at extremely high speed.

But...

"Creak~"

Broly just casually waved his hand, and the repulsion field that came before him was directly dispersed by him.

"Ugh..."

Hiruko Kagetane on that side let out a muffled groan, the finger he snapped with presenting a strange arc.

"Creak~"

He straightened his fractured and dislocated finger back into place, and hurriedly pulled back his daughter who wanted to charge forward.

"Dad, what are you grabbing me for?"

Hiruko Kohina turned back confusedly to look at her father.

"Stupid daughter, my fingers are like this, and you still haven't figured out the difference in strength between us and the person opposite?"

"Have you weighed my strength yet?"

"Mm, I've weighed it; you're not an enemy our father and daughter can handle."

When his strongest move was casually dispersed by the other like waving air, Hiruko Kagetane clearly realized this point.

"So you still want to fight me?"

"I like using battle to prove my own worth, but I don't like dying for nothing, so forget it."

Hiruko Kagetane was very sensible.

"Don't let him go."

Satomi Rentaro was helped up from the ground by Aihara Enju.

His condition looked somewhat miserable, injured in multiple places, but it seemed nothing serious.

"Is he also a commission target?"

Broly asked curiously.

"He isn't, but he killed many innocent people; he's a terrorist."

Broly fell into thought.

"Alright, for me and my daughter to leave smoothly, I'll tell you a piece of information."

"What information?"

"I'm a mercenary. My terrorist attack was because someone hired me to do it."

Hiruko Kagetane answered.

"Eh, who hired you?"

The boy questioned.

"All I can say is this much. Well then, farewell."

Hiruko Kagetane, just as when he came, merely dragging along a displeased-looking Hiruko Kohina by the hand, retreated into the forest, his figure soon disappearing from the three people's sight.

【Just who hired the other party?】

Satomi Rentaro frowned deeply.

"Rentaro?"

Aihara Enju called out to him from the side.

"Hm?"

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

The boy shook his head and replied.

【Forget it, I'll tell Kisara-nee when we get back and let the smarter Kisara-nee have the headache over these things.】

Satomi Rentaro thought in his heart, then called out to the two people beside him.

"Take the commissioned box, let's go back."

The three people boarded the hovering helicopter and were transported back to the urban area.

Once they landed, Tenkō Kisara, who had already finished dialysis and learned the commission was completed, rushed over to this side of the airport to welcome them.

The black long straight girl's long hair drifted wantonly in the air.

Seeing the three people get off the helicopter safe and sound, Tenkō Kisara welcomed them with a face full of smiles.

"Did things go smoothly?"

She asked.

"We almost couldn't make it back."

"What happened? Didn't you complete the commission very smoothly?"

Tenkō Kisara was somewhat surprised/strange.

"After eliminating the Gastrea, we encountered Hiruko Kagetane..."

Satomi Rentaro explained the situation at that time.

"Good thing Broly was there, he scared the other party away."

Tenkō Kisara looked at the boy in surprise.

"Didn't expect you to be this powerful, looks like recruiting you into the office was the right call."

She reached out her hand, touching the boy's soft head.

"Broly, you've earned merit. What reward do you want?"

She asked this.

"Any reward works?"

Hearing this, Broly's eyes brightened.

"As long as it's something I can do."

Tenkō Kisara agreed.

"Then can you be my wife?"

Satomi Rentaro raised a hand to prop his forehead; the boy decisively made this kind of request after all.

"Wife?"

Tenkō Kisara was somewhat dazed.

"Broly came to our world to find a wife for himself, and Kisara-nee you are a candidate who can become his wife."

Aihara Enju helped explain; she is the person in this world who understands Crystal Palace the most clearly.

"Uh, can you change to a different request?"

Tenkō Kisara asked with a bit of a headache.

"I don't need anything else, just this."

Broly shook his head and answered, looking at the black long straight girl with some expectation.

"Then I can only refuse you. For someone like me, I still don't have the qualification to obtain happiness."

The great enmity unavenged, how can I have a home?

Even if the great enmity is avenged, and it comes to starting a family, it's still impossible to choose a boy I've only met once, known for less than two days, right?

So, Tenkō Kisara refused very decisively.

"Uh..."

Broly took a bit of a blow, not understanding what was up with this world, why every capturable target encountered was so very hard to deal with.

The only thing that comforted the Saiyan boy was that the frequency of encountering new capturable targets in this world was very high; perhaps the next new capturable target encountered would readily agree to become his wife.

Mhm, Broly could only comfort himself like this, expecting the next new capturable target encountered would be better, would be easier to become his wife.

"Broly, don't be sad..."

Aihara Enju leaned over, comforting the boy who took a blow.

"Right, Kisara-nee, Hiruko Kagetane said he was hired by someone..."

Satomi Rentaro, after handing the commission box to the girl, told Tenkō Kisara this important intelligence.

"Hey, do you know who hired them?"

Tenkō Kisara's expression turned serious as she pressed for an answer.

"Don't know, that guy didn't say."

The boy shook his head.

"Alright, I'll remember this intel, I'll investigate it later."

"Also, Enju's identity as a Cursed Child has been exposed."

"Eh, how did that happen?"

"Hiruko Kagetane exposed it."

"Uh, but Enju looks like... she doesn't seem to have much of a problem."

Tenkō Kisara looked at the girl comforting the boy over there, feeling the other party didn't look like she had suffered a blow.

"Enju is fine now, the problem is, Broly beat up a group of elementary students, teachers, and a group of elementary school security guards who verbally harmed her at her school for her sake, beat them into pig heads, and made them change how they address her, to keep calling her Aihara-san..."

"Uh..."

Tenkō Kisara was slightly stunned, suddenly feeling the boy was quite to her temper.

At the same time, she also understood why the boy beside her had a troubled expression.

"Did he kill anyone, or cripple anyone?"

"No."

"That's good, this isn't a big deal, money can make the devil push the millstone, moreover, with this thing, we can get in touch with the Holy Son of Heaven."

Tenkō Kisara patted the white box in her hand.

"Request the Holy Son of Heaven who proposed the Gastrea New Law to help out, press down the bad public opinion that school might send out, this shouldn't be a problem."
