Chapter 42 The Book of Grell
Chapter 42 The Book of Grell
In the land of rivers, in a village that isn't very big.
A man in black wearing a fox mask walks along the village road.
When the villagers saw him, they couldn't help but avoid him, pulling their children away to prevent them from getting close to the masked man.
Finally, Yuan Tuoye stopped in front of a house that was considered relatively luxurious in the village. Without knocking, he stepped inside.
The surrounding villagers, seeing this, hesitated whether to go and help.
"Who are you?!" At that moment, a couple and their young child were inside the house.
"I am a ninja who enjoys collecting strange and unusual things," Minamoto Takuno introduced himself.
"A ninja?!" The light blond-haired youth was surprised and became wary at the same time. He said, "I don't have anything strange here. Ninja, you've come to the wrong person."
"This child's name is Timothy, right?" Yuan Tuoye came up to Timothy and reached out to ruffle his hair.
This scene caught Timothy's parents completely off guard. Timothy's mother couldn't help but cry out, "Don't hurt my child!"
"Ninja Master, this is indeed my son, Timothy." Timothy's father's heart sank slowly; the other party had clearly come prepared.
"Then that's it. May I ask if you can give me the Book of Grell?" Yuan Tuoye asked directly. He remembered that Hyde killed Timsey's parents when he was a child for this book.
This book records everything about the Grell mine, including how to use it, which can save him a lot of time for research, so he must get this book.
Timsey's father turned deathly pale upon hearing about the Book of Grell.
At this moment, Timothy seemed to sense that Yuan Tuoye was "bullying" his parents, and he was pounding Yuan Tuoye with his little fists.
This scene almost made Timothy's mother faint. When she tried to beg for Timothy's life, she found that the other party didn't care about this.
"Well, actually I'm the kind of person who pursues peaceful transactions, but if you don't give it to me, I might use some unconventional methods that you might not be able to handle," said Gen Takuno.
As he spoke, he looked into Timothy's father's eyes, which had quietly turned blood red, with a pair of tomoe spinning within them, displaying some memories to the other person in the form of illusions.
After a long while, Timothy's father turned pale and looked around before realizing that he was still alive, and that Timothy had not been deceived by the people who killed them, and had almost been killed by them while helping them.
"If you agree to give it to me, I can help you deal with that person," Yuan Tuoye said at this moment.
Timothy's father fell silent for a moment, then nodded with difficulty.
It wasn't that he wanted to believe in any illusion, but rather that he had no choice but to believe it. The other party could easily kill him first and then take the Book of Grell, just like the guy in the illusion.
Moreover, did the other party really need to deceive him?
"Then, can you give me the Book of Grell now?" Gen Takuno asked, looking at the other person.
Timothy's father paused for a moment, then sighed. What right did he have to make demands?
He entered the house, took out a book that was wrapped up tightly, and handed it to Yuan Tuoye with a reluctant look in his eyes.
"The transaction is complete. That person will no longer appear before you." After flipping through the document to confirm its authenticity, Yuan Tuoye chuckled and then disappeared from their sight.
At this moment, Timothy's parents rushed to him, hugged him, and checked on his safety.
He finally breathed a deep sigh of relief when he found out that Gen Takuno really hadn't done anything to Timothy.
As he walked toward the stronghold of the great merchant Hyde, Gen Takuno sighed that he was indeed a peace-loving ninja.
The demonic statue he obtained did not die; well, it was someone else who killed it, so it has nothing to do with him.
He didn't die after obtaining the meteorite, and now he's obtained the Book of Grell without any casualties.
Just when he wanted to obtain the Corpse Bone Pulse, the Kaguya clan's madmen attacked him without any reason, and he only managed to punish them slightly.
As for Hyde, whom they are now going to destroy, that's just part of the deal; blame Timsey's father.
Moreover, Yuan Tuoye looked at the blood in his hand; it was Timsi's blood, which he had collected on the spur of the moment.
The other party was a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Grell, who claimed that only members of the royal family could perfectly control the power of the Grell mine.
But Yuan Tuoye didn't believe it, because the Grell mine wasn't created by them, but rather discovered by them, and ultimately refined by them.
Therefore, for the Grell mine, the royal family was no different from ordinary people at first. At most, during the refining process, they deliberately used some means to make it so that only the royal family could use the Grell mine without any side effects.
Gen Takuno obtained Tim's blood in order to study what was special about the other party's bloodline.
As for using the Ghost Sprout Technique to fuse with the opponent and perfectly utilize the power of the Grell Mine? That's impossible. The Grell Mine isn't worthy of him wasting a fusion slot.
After collecting Timothy's blood, Gen Takuno quickly headed towards his next destination.
Soon, he arrived at Hyde's stronghold and walked in as if no one else was there.
"Who are you!"
The guards tried to stop Yuan Tuoye, but his movements stopped a moment later. His body was split in two, and blood splattered all over the ground.
"Water Release: Water Blade Flowing Technique!"
A stream of water appeared around Yuan Tuoye, swirling and moving with his movements. Those who tried to stop him were reduced to pieces like the madmen of the Kaguya clan.
Unlike the Kaguya clan, they are not insane, so they are afraid when they see this scene and will not rush up like they don't care about their lives.
Sure enough, the vast majority of people have already fled.
Yuan Tuoye did not stop him; his target was only Hyde. Killing a few people with bloody methods first was to scare away the rest and avoid trouble.
Soon, the strong smell of blood attracted the people inside the mansion.
The one in the middle with a compassionate expression is Hyde. He always deceives others by saying he wants to realize some kind of ideal country, but in reality, he just wants to use the power of the Grell mine to gain the ability to live forever.
As for that so-called ideal world, that's obviously just a scam.
"Who are you?! Why are you killing my men?!" Hyde exclaimed in shock and anger as he looked at the black-clad man wearing a fox mask. He couldn't recall ever offending anyone.
"I'm a ninja who enjoys collecting unusual things. Do you have the Grell Stone on you? Could you give it to me?"
Yuan Tuoye didn't mention the transaction again this time, because the other party was already a transaction subject.
Next, we just need to deal with the opponent and get the Grell Stone.
