Chapter 502 – Returning & Monk Tao

He would have loved to stay behind, test his and the beauties strength a bit more while collecting a lot of freely coming coins and treasures in his pocket.

Unfortunately, if he did so at the moment he would be in great danger, as the news of his presence at this location seemed to have spread by quite a bit, and soon more powerful experts would arrive.

It would become just like some sort of bee-hive, and he would be the center of all attention as the common enemy of everyone in there. After all, who would be able to resist the 500 million dollar bounty?

Not only that, but he wasn't even alone, as Takeshiba Aika and Ice were with him. If he didn't show proper care those bastards might capture and try to use them against him.

Not like he would endanger his own life for them, as they still didn't have that much weight on his heart, and mind, but it would be bothersome to lose such capable and beautiful ladies due to them.

With those thoughts in his mind, he decided that it would be better to actually leave this place momentarily and return back later in another getup.

After all, all the people that had appeared in this place, and were actually trying to capture him could be considered as his enemies.

None of them was thinking of letting him go, and even less about helping him, as they were all after his life and body, for the 500 million dollars.

For that reason, whether he killed them, robbed them, or tortured them no one should blame him.

Of course, he understood that this was a crazy thought himself, as the experts who would think of their death while trying to kill the other guy were only a few and in between.

Most of these bastards were selfish low lives that would consider it heaven's judgment while taking another guy's life, and great sacrilege when someone tried to do the same with theirs.

This was reality and true human nature. But he didn't really care about those guys' thoughts and opinions before they died.

After all, no matter what one was before he died, once he took his last breath he was nothing short of a dead corpse.

Dead corpses' opinions didn't matter, as they were dead already, so why should he care about them. Not to mention that it was those guys who approached him and not the opposite.

Since he had received quite a few SP points in rewards from the Legacy System he felt like a silk pants Young Master who could afford to splurge some of them.

Spending a few thousand to get a long-distance Escape Talisman after Willa had disappeared from the attention of everyone there, it was more than acceptable for the current him.

Since he had already been prepared for such a separation as a backup plan he had already planned for a meeting spot with Willa, and he had some time to reach there.

It would be perfect for him and the two beauties to go and have a test of their abilities in the meantime. 

With those thoughts in mind, he quickly prepared new faces for them and himself before going back towards the Senkaku Islands.

As long as they didn't meet someone who was extremely close to Takeshiba Aika, Ice, or him, they would be unrecognizable no matter where they were.

Ice and Takeshiba Aika were certainly startled and shocked by Eric's ways and means as they couldn't believe the change.

If it weren't for that feeling of having something stuck to their face, and experiencing the change, they wouldn't be able to tell these weren't their faces either.

With that out of the way, Eric led the two beauties to slowly return, while keeping a look at his surroundings at all times.

After the news of his and Takeshiba Aika's appearance had spread around the place, there were bound to be quite a few bounty hunters attracted to this place.

Once these guys gathered at one place, it was impossible for small fights, and battles to start. Even if they didn't really start, then he wouldn't mind being the spark to make them happen.

Eric and the two beauties reached the Senkaku Islands in a rather moderate time, as they decided to approach the site head-on.

After all, the best place to hide was in plain sight among the chaotic crowd, and approaching from a different corner would just make them look suspicious.

Just like he had expected there was now a large crowd at the location, with many people searching around for any possible clues.

Eric's escaping methods had become quite popular recently, as many people knew that he possessed some truly exquisite and unique means to travel undetected at a high speed for an unknown time.

It was just like he had some sort of mantle that provided him both the speed and stealth. They didn't think that it was truly space travel, as they had never seen something similar.

After all, how could even travel through the void, they would most probably end up trapped in there for life, it looked like an impossible thing to achieve, at least if someone didn't reach lightspeed.

Well, their evolution was the first notion that should have broken through those kinds of thought limitations, as for many normal mortals, they were an impossible existence as well.

A frog at the bottom of the well!

That expression would be the best way to describe their thoughts and mentalities of the moment, as the person they were searching for was right amid them.

"Monk Tao is coming!"

"Make path Monk Tao is coming!"

All of a sudden cries about the arrival of such a person were heard through the whole crowd, as a monk wearing a golden mantle was swimming slowly towards the last seen location of Eric.

He had a golden bead shaped like an eyeball on his hand, while all the experts in front of him were opening a path for him, and started whispering whatever they knew about him.

'I heard that Monk Tao is a powerful Soul Master of the Mercy Temple!'

'Right, right, I heard about that too! His artifact, the 'All-seeing Golden Eye' is a four-star artifact, with the ability to look into the past and future!'

'I heard something like that as well but isn't that exaggerated!?'

'Shhusshhh! Idiot, he will hear you!'

Someone from the crowd seemed to be unconvinced by this Monk Tao and his reputation as he said those words. Even though they were just a bubbly whisper, many experts were able to hear him.

"Too late, I have already heard him!

You don't believe that my artifact can see the past and the future? You think that I have paid people to exaggerate my tales!?

Aren't you a courageous one!?"

"This… I…"

"You what!? You are going to say that you won't believe this old Monk even if he says that you have slept with your Boss's wife before coming here!?

Or that you won't believe this old Monk saying that you will die a dog's death in less than one minute?

Well, you don't have to! Dead people don't need to believe anything, after all!"

The words of that Monk Tao caused quite the commotion amid the crowd, as the one with the darkest face was the expert's Boss, who was quite displeased with the information he just learned.

The poor expert's shock on his face could be taken as the best evidence of the truthfulness of Monk Tao's words, as before he could even plead innocence, his Boss used his knife to cut the guy's willy.

'AARRRRGGGGLLLLLLRRRRRRRR~!'

A loud and resounding scream of pain mixed with the sounds of bubbles rang through the whole area before the Boss used his knife once again to cut his tongue and his throat.

"Ungrateful and disrespectful shit, you better feel grateful I gave you a quick death!"

Then turning towards Monk Tao, the Boss guy bowed his head lightly, and said in an apologetic and reverent voice,

"I am sorry for the actions of this beast Monk Tao, it was my fault for not having him taught his place better before coming here!"

"Hohoho~! Aren't you quite the sensible one, Amitabha!

Then please don't blame this Monk Tao on holding you into your words and keeping you responsible for his behavior and seeking compensation for the stain it dirtied his good reputation!"

The poor Boss couldn't believe what was going on. He had thought that this Monk Tao would give him some face and not take this matter further once he cut the guy's tongue and killed him.

He didn't expect that the Monk would use his own words against him and ask for compensation. He couldn't accept that, as he immediately tried to reject despite in a polite tone,

"Please don't take it too far Monk Tao, I just killed the person that tried to stain your reputation!"

"I am taking this too far, Amitabha!? Your subordinate tried to smear this Master's reputation and even spread rumors about his abilities.

And I am taking this too far!? Are you trying to do the same as your subordinate by smearing my reputation as well?

Is this some kind of well-prepared trapping act? Is that it? Are you trying to smear this Monk's reputation?

It seems to be extremely true when they say that apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

Well, since you don't believe in this Monk's integrity and honor then there is no reason for me to continue staying here, is there!?"

With that said Monk Tao immediately turned around and started walking away, while the crowd's cold and icy eyes fell on the poor Boss…
