Looking at the translucent blue interface floating before his eyes, Kenji stroked his chin thoughtfully.

”The one I just killed was classified as a C-rate ghoul, but its actual combat prowess didn’t even reach a true C-grade standard.

Ghouls exist in massive numbers throughout this world, and above C-rate, there are B, A, S, SS, and even SSS-rate monsters.

If I want to survive and completely eradicate every single ghoul in this world, I’ll have to rely heavily on the system’s power.”

”But this is precisely my mission after transmigrating.

Having been granted a second lease on life, I might as well do something meaningful.

This gig isn’t half bad!”

With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Kenji shifted his focus directly to his inventory slot.

”Open the Starter Gift Pack!”

[Ding!

Congratulations to the host for opening the Starter Gift Pack!

Rewarded: SSS-Grade Character Template—Heavenly Tyrant!]

[SSS-Grade Character Template: Heavenly Tyrant]: Derived from the character in the Jujutsu Kaisen universe.

The host will inherit all abilities of this character.

The core trait possessed is the unique constitution known as Heavenly Restriction—gaining a physical body that completely shatters all evolutionary limits at the absolute cost of possessing zero cursed energy.

The current integration level of the Heavenly Tyrant template is at 30%.

The host can gather World Force to unlock it to 100%!

[Ding!

The system has already optimized the character’s abilities; the host can break through to even greater heights based on this foundation!]

Hearing the system’s mechanical explanation, Kenji fell into deep thought.

”The Heavenly Tyrant?

Toji Fushiguro?”

Thinking back to that brutally ferocious and violent human from the anime he watched in his previous life, a faint, cold smirk played on Kenji’s lips.

”With Toji Fushiguro’s raw capabilities, I can easily rank among the absolute strongest in this ghoul world.

However, entirely cleansing every single ghoul here will still come with significant resistance.”

While Toji’s prowess was undeniably terrifying, Kenji was smart enough to know that the Tokyo Ghoul world wasn’t a playground he could just casually trample over.

The Washuu Clan, who pulled the strings of the government from the shadows, was not an entity the current him could carelessly provoke.

Toji’s strength lay in single-target, absolute physical domination; his peerless physical body allowed him to rapidly dismantle any ghoul in a direct fight, but he severely lacked effective, wide-range destructive capabilities.

By Kenji’s calculations, even with just a 30% synchronization rate of Toji’s power, it was more than enough to clash head-on with an S-rate ghoul.

However, facing an SSS-rate ghoul would likely require the Heavenly Tyrant template to be unlocked past 60%.

Furthermore, even if he could personally execute an SSS-rate ghoul, he couldn’t directly take on an entire government military apparatus controlled by the Washuu Clan.

He might be a juggernaut, but that didn’t mean he lacked a brain.

To go up against the entire government required a level of logistical leverage he didn’t possess yet.

In Tokyo, aside from the various ghoul factions, there was the government’s official enforcement agency: the CCG.

And standing right behind the CCG was none other than the Washuu Clan.

If he blindly and recklessly charged in, he would end up fighting a two-front war against both the entire ghoul underworld and the CCG.

After analyzing his options, Kenji decided to open the rest of his rewards.

The top priority right now was to acquire World Force as quickly as possible to unlock the Heavenly Tyrant template further, elevating his combat power to ensure he wouldn’t be cornered and turned into a snack by a high-ranking ghoul!

[Ding!

Congratulations to the host for opening the C-Grade First Kill Chest!

Obtained: B-Grade Bladed Weapon [Gilded Cloud]!]

[Ding!

Congratulations to the host for opening the C-Grade Treasure Chest!

Obtained: 3x Attribute Points!]

Hearing the prompts, Kenji raised an eyebrow as a snow-white longsword materialized in his hand.

The weapon measured approximately 1.3 meters in total length, with the blade itself spanning 0.9 meters.

It had a blade width of 4.5 centimeters and a thickness of 0.9 centimeters.

Kenji gave it a couple of casual test swings, slicing the air and producing two distinct, sharp sonic cracks.

”Not bad.

Although it feels light in my hands, it can comfortably withstand the sheer output of my physical power.”

At this point, Kenji took another look at his status screen, which had completely transformed.

[Host]: Kenji

[Age]: 25

[Heavenly Tyrant]: 30%

[Strength]: 86 (Normal human male baseline is 10)

[Agility]: 91 (Normal human male baseline is 10)

[Constitution]: 82 (Normal human male baseline is 10)

[Spirit]: 20 (Normal human male baseline is 10)

// Note: Charisma dropped significantly below baseline due to optimization

[Charisma]: 6 (Normal human peak limit is 10)

[Stat Points]: 3

[Skills]: None

[Combat Power] (Assimilated into current world): S-rate Ghoul (Associate Special Class Investigator)

[Items]: B-Grade [Gilded Cloud]

[World Force]: 0%

Staring at the staggering, astronomical leaps on his attribute panel and feeling the surging, cataclysmic oceans of physical power coursing through his veins, Kenji grinned widely.

”So this is the Heavenly Tyrant?”

”But why did my Spirit only increase by 8 points?”

[Ding!

The Heavenly Restriction trade-off sacrifices all cursed energy in exchange for unparalleled physical capabilities.

Physical capabilities strictly encompass Strength, Agility, and Constitution.

They do not include spiritual faculties.

The growth of the Spirit attribute is directly tied to the host’s overall tier and comprehensive power.]

[Furthermore, the Spirit attribute plays a critical, lifesaving role when confronting Eldritch or Unknowable entities!]

”Then why did my Charisma actually drop?!”

[Ding!

The Charisma attribute is tied to the host’s facial aesthetics and personal approachability.

An increase in physical power will not alter your baseline looks.

Please look inward and reflect on your abysmal approachability index!]

Kenji: “…”

[Ding!

Whenever any of the host’s five core attributes cross the 100-point threshold, you will unlock three Advanced Sub-Abilities and may choose one to permanently equip.]

Hearing the system’s notification, Kenji’s eyes lit up.

He had been pondering how to best allocate his stat points.

Following the system’s hint, he understood that Spirit was highly vital, but it held very little immediate value in this specific world.

Unknowable, eldritch horrors were far too distant a concern right now.

At his current stage, increasing Spirit would only make his perception sharper and his mind more alert.

Rather than doing that, it was infinitely better to push a core stat past the 100-point threshold first.

As for Charisma?

He had come to this world to butcher every single ghoul in existence.

Was he supposed to pump points into Charisma just to give them a heartwarming speech and convince them to commit suicide?

With that logic settled, Kenji dumped all 3 available stat points directly into Agility.

With this addition, he was a mere 6 points away from smashing through the 100-point barrier!

[Agility]: 94

Having completed his preparations, Kenji stretched his body, cast a brief glance at the stone-cold corpse on the ground, and prepared to leave the area.

However, just as he pivoted to walk away, his ears twitched.

Deep within the alleyways, several sweeping cones of tactical flashlights were rapidly cutting through the darkness, approaching at high speed.

”The CCG?

Their response time is surprisingly fast.

I figured they wouldn’t discover this until morning.”

Kenji currently had no intention of interacting with the CCG.

Sweeping a gaze across his surroundings, he bent his knees and explosively extended his legs.

Whoosh!

With a sharp burst of speed, Kenji’s figure shot upward like a bullet, effortlessly sticking a landing onto a nearby rooftop.

With a few fluid, shadows-blurring leaps, he vanished completely into the pitch-black night sky.

”CCG Rank 3 Investigator, Mado Shuichi!

Ghouls inside, come out with your hands up!”

Not long after Kenji departed, a slightly youthful, strained voice echoed into the alleyway.

It was immediately followed by a raspy, seasoned voice.

”That’s enough, Shuichi.

There’s no one left alive here.”

A middle-aged man with chaotic white hair and a distinct, somewhat twisted facial expression walked forward slowly, carrying a sleek white briefcase in his hand.

Within moments, he came to a halt right before the ghoul Kenji had slaughtered.

”Huh?

Uncle, what happened to this ghoul?

Did it run into another ghoul?

Could it be a case of cannibalism?”

The middle-aged man completely ignored the voice behind him.

Instead, he slowly knelt down to inspect the corpse.

Moments later, a low, ominous voice broke the silence of the damp street.

”No.

This one was bludgeoned to death with bare hands.”
