“Cooked-meat Big Eater Challenge!
The cooked-meat Big Eater Challenge is now underway!
As long as you can finish ten jin of cooked food within the time limit, not only will your meal be free during the event, you’ll also receive an exquisite prize!
No restriction on type, no restriction on category.
As long as you come, you can…”
Several young, pretty girls were holding megaphones and calling out everywhere.
Su Tang glanced over and immediately recognized the big-headed owner sitting right in the center.
He walked forward and explained his purpose under the owner’s slightly surprised gaze.
“What?
You’re saying you want to buy all this cooked food?”
“Yes.” Su Tang nodded.
“No, this is for the event.
If you really want some, you can come tomorrow…”
“I’ll pay ten percent above your highest price per jin.”
Su Tang had no time to listen to the owner ramble.
He interrupted directly and gave his offer.
“Uh, ten percent… no, I can’t…”
“Thirty percent more.”
“Deal!”
This time, the owner shut up immediately.
Although he did not understand why this young customer wanted to do this, he did know that free money should never be refused.
“Um, sir, how will you be paying…?”
For safety’s sake, the owner still asked.
He was worried the other party was just messing with him and did not actually have the money.
“Relax.
I won’t short you.
Hurry up and stop the event first, then drive the people around here away.
Otherwise, every piece of meat that goes missing is a direct loss for you.”
Su Tang understood the owner’s worry and did not waste words.
He directly took something out of his pants pocket, held it between his index and middle fingers, and showed it to the owner.
“A… a Citibank Black Card!”
The owner knew what he was looking at.
The moment he saw the card, he turned and left to stop the event.
He had never expected to see such a thing on a food street.
Tokyo truly was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers…
The Citi Black Card was the highest-level credit card issued by Citibank, one of America’s four major banks.
It could not even be applied for proactively; only users invited by the bank could obtain one.
Watching the owner leave, Su Tang could not help sighing.
Having money really was nice.
Money power was still the most reliable power.
Of course, it would be even better if that money power belonged to him.
That was right.
The owner of this Black Card was not Su Tang.
As you probably guessed, it belonged to Valmont.
The money inside counted as activity funds for his “overseas assignment” and could not normally be used.
Without a sufficient reason, Valmont really would get angry with him.
That was why he obviously could not use this card for things like renovating his clinic.
Those funds had come from the five hundred thousand dollars he received before coming to Tokyo.
As for how much money was actually in the card, Su Tang said he did not know.
That string of zeroes hurt his eyes.
Casually stuffing the card back, Su Tang took out the Talisman Locator.
The red light remained fixed within this range.
Good.
It seemed nothing unexpected had happened.
Right now, Su Tang was afraid that righteous magic had developed some tsundere trait—clearly weakening the seal on the Talisman ahead of time, only to make things difficult for him at the final step.
Secretly summoning the Shadowkhan to search through the pile of cooked food, Su Tang turned his head and looked outside the shop.
Outside, the place was still packed and lively.
Many of the people were young students wearing matching uniforms.
Su Tang recognized those uniforms.
Or rather, there were few people in this part of Tokyo who would not recognize them.
Tokyo Municipal First Academy—the largest high school in all of Tokyo.
Was there some school activity today?
Su Tang guessed as much.
He was thinking that if Denjiko earned enough money in the future, maybe he could send her there as well, so she could experience what it felt like to attend school with people her own age.
Just as he was thinking that, Su Tang suddenly felt the ground tremble beneath his feet.
Then it trembled again.
Immediately afterward, the crowd broke into chaos.
“A Devil!
A Devil appeared!”
“Run!”
“…”
The tourists who had only just been crowded at the shop entrance, wanting to argue with the owner, instantly turned pale with terror and scattered with the flow of people.
Grass, a kind of plant!
Sure enough, the thing he feared most had happened.
An accident had appeared after all.
However, another dramatic scene unfolded immediately afterward.
The people who had just been panicking suddenly calmed down again.
“It’s a Devil Hunter!
A Devil Hunter took care of that Caviar Devil!”
From the incident starting to its resolution, the entire process had taken no more than ten seconds.
One could not help but admire the efficiency of Devil Hunters—especially since this time, it had been handled by a civilian Devil Hunter.
Everyone was happy.
Except for two beings who were not human.
Well, not entirely human.
“Damn it!
This great me’s credit got stolen by some trash hunter!”
Power and Denjiko had charged less than five meters before returning in frustration.
“It’s all your fault for sneaking pig trotters over there!
Otherwise, I would’ve been the one to kill the Devil!”
Denjiko complained at Power.
If they had set out immediately, they might still have made it in time.
But this trash woman had delayed a full three seconds for that pig trotter!
Now the bonus was gone.
“Hmph.
Foolish human.
How is this great me supposed to have the strength to kill Devils without eating and drinking my fill?”
Power snorted disdainfully with her nose in the air.
“Eh!
There’s a piece of braised meat on the ground!”
After walking only a few steps, Power suddenly saw a warm, fragrant piece of meat lying on the ground.
She glanced left and right like a thief, then immediately darted forward and picked it up.
“Trash woman, you’re stealing food again!”
Denjiko glanced at the building beside the meat and recognized it as the cooked-food shop that had been hosting the Big Eater Challenge earlier.
“The tremor earlier probably shook a piece of meat near the window down.”
“Who cares?
If this great me found it, then it belongs to this great me.”
As she spoke, Power had already opened her mouth wide and swallowed it directly without even chewing.
“You…”
Denjiko did not want to deal with her.
She casually looked inside the shop, only to suddenly notice someone unexpected.
“Mr.
Su Tang?!”
Su Tang was not in a very good mood right now.
Because the shadow ninjas had already torn apart and broken up all the cooked food in the shop, yet they still had not found any trace of the Tiger Talisman.
Damn it!
Just as Su Tang was about to search again himself, he suddenly heard a familiar shout.
Turning his head, he saw Denjiko peering in through the window.
And beside her…
Power, rubbing her belly.
Su Tang smiled back at Denjiko in response.
Then, looking at Power’s expression, which clearly showed that she had just eaten something, a bad premonition flashed through his heart.
He decisively lowered his head and took out the Talisman Locator.
Red light flared.
The target pointed straight at Power.
At her stomach.
