Xin Yan came from a wealthy family and had taken Japanese language courses for a period, so he naturally understood Japanese.
“Did you hear?” one of the girls mysteriously asked her companion.
“What is it?” The companion also seemed a bit curious.
“The legend of the Fourth Progenitor!” The girl became even more mysterious, saying, “The Fourth Progenitor is an immortal, undying monster with no bloodline kin, no desire for dominion, who leads twelve Familiar Beasts, embodiments of disaster, and cares only for slaughter.”
“Heh, what’s so strange about that?
Don’t forget, Itogami Island has the most monsters.
What with Elves, Beastmen, artificial life forms, it wouldn’t be strange even if there was a Fourth Progenitor!”
“Don’t you find it scary?”
“Scary, but I believe those in charge wouldn’t ignore such a threat existing on Itogami Island!”
Xin Yan, who had pricked up his ears and listened to their conversation, naturally picked up on some of the content.
“So…
so this is Itogami Island!” The familiar setting reminded Xin Yan that this was the world of strike the blood.
“Now that I know this world, what should I do next?” Xin Yan murmured.
The destructive power of the Familiar Beasts in strike the blood was astonishing; they could easily destroy a city.
Although he had the Dark-Dark Fruit, Xin Yan still wanted to acquire his own Familiar Beast.
However, Familiar Beasts could only be controlled by Vampires; others couldn’t control them at all.
This was because Familiar Beasts drew a massive amount of life force from their master.
Without the immortal characteristics of a Vampire, even the most powerful life form couldn’t withstand such torment!
If Xin Yan wanted to possess a Familiar Beast, he had to solve the life force problem.
He just didn’t know if his devouring ability could devour a Vampire’s bloodline.
“Young man, are you alright?” The voice was quite pleasant.
Xin Yan looked up to see a girl in a school uniform half-crouching, leaning forward to ask, “Are you feeling unwell?
Do you want me to take you to the hospital?”
Looking at the exquisite girl with short white hair, Xin Yan remembered that her name was Kanon, a middle school student and Nagisa’s friend.
She greatly aspired to become a nun, was an animal lover, usually well-behaved and quiet, but would display astonishing initiative when dealing with wild animals.
In reality, she was a ‘Masked Parasite’ Simulated Angel [Code XDA-7].
She liked keeping cats (she kept a litter of kittens in the church).
Her true identity was the princess of the Altikia Kingdom.
By seniority, she was Faria’s aunt, transformed into a “Simulated Angel.” She once pushed Kojou and others to a desperate situation but was eventually rescued by Kojou and later taken in by Nangong Natsuki.
“Could you treat me to a meal?” Xin Yansmiled slightly.
He had transmigrated penniless, and now even getting a meal was a problem!
“Then I won’t be polite!” Inside the fast-food restaurant, Xin Yan continuously gorged himself, next to a tall stack of bowls and chopsticks.
Kanon, sitting beside him, had her mouth agape, clearly startled by Xin Yan’s astonishing appetite, and the service staff also looked at Xin Yan as if he were a monster!
Perhaps it was due to the fusion with the Dark-Dark Fruit, Xin Yan hadn’t realized he could eat so much!
But this Kanon was truly a very kind girl, just like in the original story!
“Phew, I’m so full!” After a long while, Xin Yan felt he had eaten enough.
If he ate any more, he would be treated as a monster.
Little did he know, everyone dining in the restaurant had already categorized Xin Yan as a monster!
“Hey, hey, is he…
is he really human?” one person whispered.
“He doesn’t have a demon race registration device on his hand, so he should be human, right?”
“Are you stupid?
Can a human eat that much?”
“He must be from the demon race, and a demon race without a registration device means he’s an outsider!”
“So scary!
Call the police quickly!”
