"So let's get married! You and I will definitely have the strongest child!"
Garuda seemed to have already envisioned the future, excited and jubilant, his body trembling slightly, his face flushed, and his black eyes with white pupils filled with anticipation.
Did you ask your grandfather for his opinion?
Yato remembered that the ruler of the Kure clan was a great-granddaughter enthusiast.
He was wary of any young man who approached Garuda, always feeling that they wanted to kidnap his beloved granddaughter.
Originally, the conflict between himself and the Wu clan had come to an end.
Don't let Garuda cause you to be targeted again.
Yato felt that in his current state, let alone fighting Wu Horio again, he could even shoot Wu Fengshui dead in bed through the window.
For safety's sake, Yato felt it was best to keep some distance from Garuda for the time being.
He certainly likes girls, but only if he's alive.
"It's alright, Grandpa will definitely agree! After all, he's the one who told me to do it."
Garuda replied without hesitation.
Yato thinks her grandfather must be regretting saying those things now.
"How about this, you go back and ask your grandfather. If your grandfather agrees, then I have no objection."
Yato's mind raced, and he came up with a brilliant idea.
Direct refusal probably won't work either. In the current situation, there's no way to avoid it. It's better to pass the burden to Wu Huiliyang and let that shrewd old man, who's also obsessed with his great-granddaughter, figure out a way to stall Garuda.
After all, in his view, Wu Huiliyang would rather not be so furious as to hire someone to kill him than agree to it.
Garuda, who knew nothing of this, was overjoyed when he heard Yato say this. He jumped up and down excitedly, saying, "Great! You wait, I'll go back and have Grandpa prepare our wedding! Ah, what should we name the child?"
"..."
I saw her rush out the door without even looking.
Yato let out a long sigh of relief, but felt very depressed.
It's not that he doesn't like beautiful women.
On the contrary, he knew he was the kind of guy who was a bit of a playboy.
After all, it's normal for someone with talent, money, and good looks to have many female admirers.
Yato lost his virginity before entering high school. After entering high school, he was kept under close watch by Haruno, which greatly reduced his popularity with the opposite sex. After Haruno graduated, due to the activation of the system, he devoted himself to fighting and had no time to deal with women.
Just when he's finally had some free time, another girl threw herself at him. To be honest, Yato is quite happy about it.
However, these girls were all a bit strange, which made him unable to have any romantic feelings for them.
Let's not even talk about Garuda.
Zhu Mei looked at herself as if she were looking at a work of art.
Yato felt a chill run down his spine from her gaze.
"Thinking about it, it seems like there isn't a single normal girl around me. Amane is a yandere, Yukino is too cold, Amakusa is a dirty joke lover, and Haruno's personality is also very extreme and unpredictable... How can this be? I clearly look like a winner in life."
Yato was completely baffled.
He shook his head, dismissing those thoughts and ceasing to dwell on them.
Feeling the faint pain coursing through his body, Yato realized he needed to focus more on becoming stronger.
Whatever the reason, weakness is the greatest original sin.
To put it bluntly...
What does it matter to you if I kill you?
This incident served as a wake-up call for Yato.
"System, check the status."
The next moment, familiar data appeared in my field of vision.
Skipping over details like name, age, and talent that no longer need to be mentioned, Yato specifically looked at the skills and attributes.
He discovered that there was a plus sign next to his Jeet Kune Do LV4.
This means that the current level is above LV4, but not yet LV5.
But this '+' sign also made Yato realize that his Jeet Kune Do skills had improved.
"It seems that fighting to the death with Wu Hori has greatly helped my fighting skills. Real combat is indeed the best teacher. Judging from this trend, once I recover from my injuries and spend some time fully absorbing what I've gained, I should be able to reach LV5 soon."
Yato pondered this, then glanced at the other skills.
I want to see if there are any more surprises.
As it turned out, he did discover another surprise.
"My Tempest Kick skill has actually leveled up to LV5?"
Chapter 38
Yato was overjoyed to see that the Tempest Kick had become LV5.
But upon closer reflection, it makes sense.
Jeet Kune Do encompasses a wider range of techniques, and one must understand its philosophy and integrate it into oneself. It can be described as a massive system, making it relatively difficult to upgrade. In contrast, the Tempest Kick is simply a technique.
Although cultivation is difficult, the difficulty lies not in understanding it, but simply in the fact that one's physical condition is not up to standard.
During his battle with Gohori, Yato repeatedly used kicking techniques combined with the Storm Kick, eventually fracturing his leg bones and sustaining numerous injuries all over his body. To be honest, he himself found it incredible that he survived.
If it were another fighter, even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would suffer from a lot of aftereffects and become unable to fight others in the future.
But he is different.
The system's attribute values are fixed. Once the body returns to a normal state, these aftereffects will gradually disappear, keeping the body in optimal condition at all times. (This excludes diseases and limb amputations; however, normally, a healthy body will not get sick unless it is hereditary.)
Many martial artists have to learn to take hits when they first start out, as taking hits can make them more resilient.
Part training also evolved from this.
Yato's injury was quite serious, but after recovery, the injured area will become more resilient than before.
To put it bluntly, his physical condition will be even stronger than before the injury.
Although his attribute values haven't changed yet, Yato is almost certain that once his injuries heal and he resumes training, his attribute values will see a slight increase. He just doesn't know how much the increase will be or whether he can break through 10.
Having witnessed Wu Hori's unreasonable and overwhelming nature.
Yato now has a strong desire for attribute values.
Thinking of this, he immediately opened the taskbar.
Yato hadn't forgotten that he had already completed a hidden mission.
"Huh? How come this [Approaching Dark Demon] is also showing as complete?"
Yato wanted to touch his chin, but his hands were wrapped up so tightly that he could hardly lift them.
He would directly kill Wu Bianzao and his group simply because he mistook them for assassins sent by the Dragon Ball team. Naturally, he would not show mercy to those who wanted his life.
Even though they successfully 'repelled' the Wu clan in the end, there's no reason to say that they met the system's conditions, right?
After all, this mission not only requires repelling the assassins of the Wu clan, but also dealing with the mastermind behind it all; in short, it requires getting things completely resolved.
Yato has already made up his mind.
Once the equipment provided by Himuro Ryo arrives, they will launch an attack on the Dragon Ball team's higher-ups.
Using force to resolve conflicts.
But to his surprise, before he could do anything, the mission was completed without a word.
"Did the Wu clan do something?"
Yato guessed.
What he didn't know was that when Wu Moro learned that he was to assassinate a powerful person who could open Wu Horio's door, he was so frightened that he immediately chose to abandon the mission. He then went to Wu Huili and told her about it. Wu Huili then took the initiative to contact the Dragon Ball team to refuse the commission and told them that Yato had been put on the 'whitelist' by the Wu clan.
Jubei understood perfectly. He didn't really have much killing intent to begin with; he only did something to save face for the Dragon Ball group. Now that the Gori clan was backing Yato, no one in the group would gossip. Besides, he could also give the Gori clan some face, so he simply gave up on taking revenge on Yato.
Although Yato was unaware of these inside details, he figured it was better to avoid trouble, especially since there were mission rewards to be won!
The rewards for the "Approaching Dark Demon" are also quite substantial.
0.5 attribute + talent lottery *1.
Clearly, the system has divided this task into two steps.
Defeating an assassin grants a 0.5 attribute bonus.
Resolving the event = Talent Lottery * 1.
The difference in difficulty can be seen from the rewards.
Yato chooses to claim the reward.
Then the resulting 0.5 attribute value was directly added to the constitution.
My original constitution level was 3.5.
The moment the attribute was added, Yato felt his body temperature rising, and the pain gradually became negligible. Including his internal organs, his whole body felt like it was soaking in a hot spring. Although it was a bit too hot to bear, it was also incredibly pleasurable. Every pore opened up, and every cell was breathing and active, as if he had been reborn, full of vigorous vitality.
"--call!"
It took Yato quite a while to recover.
This was the first time he had ever added so many attributes to a single attribute.
A full one-sixth of the original amount.
And the results did not disappoint him.
Yato felt his injuries had improved considerably, and the leaden he felt was gone. He tried to get out of bed and walk a few steps. Although his legs were still a little sore, they were still within his tolerance.
They say it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone, but he looks like he's already recovered for a month or two.
Yato felt his breathing become longer and stronger.
Clearly, the internal organs have also been strengthened.
He clenched his fist, and his muscles tensed up.
It was only then that Yato realized that his muscles had also become stronger, and in a way that was visible to the naked eye.
There's absolutely no need to weigh it.
He could feel his muscle fibers becoming thicker and more developed.
He swelled up a whole size.
Before the injury, he looked like a young man who exercised regularly and maintained a good physique. Now, anyone who sees him would think he is a professional athlete.
Yato glanced at his own weight.
Sure enough, the most obvious effect of improved physical fitness was not in appearance, but in weight.
He originally weighed around 78 kg.
It has now broken through the 80KG mark and reached 83KG.
I gained a full ten pounds.
However, these ten pounds contain not only muscle, but also bone density, organs, and so on.
"Begin drawing talents."
Yato didn't hesitate and used his talent draw chances directly.
Anyway, keeping it won't increase its value, so it's best if it can be put to use.
This battle with Wu Horio fully demonstrated the importance of talent.
Even bloodline cannot compete with talent that is almost superpower-like.
It can be said that it is an infinitely effective passive skill.
