Chapter 124 Main Thread: Assassination King! Wait Until the Player...

When the player rushed back to the Port Mafia, what he got was not the news that Shibusawa Ryuhiko was dissatisfied with the decision of the □□ leader to send him back to the Special Ability Department and chose to cause trouble in the Port Mafia, but the news that Rimbaud had returned.

Looking at Ryuhiko Shibusawa who was sitting there enjoying the sun and whose eyes lit up the moment he saw his "angel", how could the players not know that this was some itchy bandage spirit playing a prank on the players?

"Next time you go to kill someone, remember to take me, Knight Xiaoye, with you. I think it's time for him to learn a lesson." The player said to Nakahara Chuuya who had arrived later with a serious look and a flat tone.

“……?”

"Okay, leader!" Nakahara Chuuya was a little confused, but after hearing Dazai Osamu's name, he agreed without hesitation.

After all, even if he had something else to do, he would find time to beat up Dazai Osamu!

"Excellent!" The player removed the bamboo dragonfly from his head, loosened the muscles in his hands, and smiled sinisterly. "Now, let's go settle accounts with Officer Rambo!"

"Damn it! I must find out why he only gave you a gift and not me!" The player, who seemed to be indifferent but actually cared very much, pouted and ran towards Rimbaud's office with his short legs.

Nakahara Chuuya, who was one step behind the leader, said: "..."

So this is what you care about most, Chief?!

When the player ran to Rimbaud's office and kicked the door open angrily, he saw Rimbaud sitting in the office chair, as if he had anticipated the arrival of the little leader.

"Rambo, you..." Before the player could finish her question, Rambo's voice interrupted her full of momentum.

"I have prepared a gift for you, Chief." Sitting on the office chair, the man with long black hair as thick as seaweed smiled slightly and said to the chief who broke in.

"In that case, then...?"

Then why don’t I know?

"The departure gift is under the coffee table near the sofa in the chief's room. The chief might not have seen it." Rambo briefly changed the subject, pushing the black handbag on his desk forward and saying, "By the way, this is the gift I prepared for your business trip."

"By the way, Chuuya, this one is for you."

Nakahara Chuuya took the gift from Rambo in a daze, his lips moving for a long time. After a while, the shy boy, encouraged by the player's elbow, whispered, "Thank you for the gift, Rambo... Big Brother."

"Compared to our relationship, these gifts are nothing, Chuuya." Hearing the address, Lambeau was slightly startled, and the smile on his lips became more genuine. "Rather, I'm glad you like them."

Players who are satisfied with the gifts will naturally choose not to care about the little trap set by Rimbaud in language.

Just let it be a business trip gift, the players will definitely count it as perfect attendance for you!

"So……"

"Next, I'm going to tell you something that's not so good for the Port Mafia." Facing the two incredibly cute smiling faces, Rimbaud said coldly and ruthlessly.

"What? Is there going to be another Dragon Head War in Yokohama?" The player asked casually while fiddling with the so-called 'business trip' gift prepared by Rimbaud.

Rimbaud: “…”

The player who looked at Rambo's sudden silence: "..."

Seeing that both of them were suddenly silent, Nakahara Chuuya: "..."

"No...no way?" The player could hardly hold the toy in his hand.

"Chief, aren't you curious about why I would ask for some time off at this critical time?" Rambo did not directly solve the player's confusion, but asked this question.

"That's right." The player nodded, pulled Nakahara Chuuya to sit down, and continued, "Are you saying that your vacation is related to the troubles that the Port Mafia is about to face?"

Rambo: "Yes, it's not only related to the Port Mafia, but also to you, Chuuya."

"Me?" Nakahara Chuuya pointed at himself and asked doubtfully, "Is it about the sheep?"

"If it's about the sheep, I remember the sheep's leaders have already made arrangements, right?"

"That's right—" In response, the player made a "yeah" gesture, "Those who want to go to school can go to school, those who want to learn a craft can learn a craft, and those who want to venture out—"

"Of course I sent him to learn a craft!"

The player took out a few cups of milk tea, handed one to each person, took a few sips, and said, "After all, those lambs who said they wanted to go out and explore the world really don't have any skills. It's useless to just talk big. It's better to send them to learn some skills and then let them grow freely."

"That Shirase, in particular, I originally wanted to give him a good beating, but since you've made that decision, Chuuya, I have no choice but to send him to learn some techniques." The player fiddled with the delicate little toy and said, "Although his technique is a bit tiring."

"After all, they saved my life, and this is what I should do." Zhong also expressed his approval of the players' practice of breaking up the Sheep members and sending them to various places to learn skills or study.

He also remained silent regarding the resentful attitude of the Yang members towards Chuuya Nakahara during the breakup process.

"No, not a sheep," Lambo said. "I'm sure they're coming for you, Chuuya."

"That was my partner before I lost my memory, and also my relative and friend."

"His name is Paul Verlaine." Looking at the young man in front of him who still looked a bit childish even in a mature suit, Rimbaud's eyes were complicated as he spoke the name of the man who had set his sights on Chuuya Nakahara word by word.

[Trigger the main mission: Assassinate King Paul Verlaine

Mission Description: A Great Crisis!!! Paul Verlaine, the assassin king from Europe, seems to have learned of the existence of a man named Nakahara Chuuya through some means. This man, paranoid about love, wants to take Nakahara Chuuya away! To do this, he will personally sever all ties with Nakahara Chuuya!

Mission content: Defeat the assassination king Paul Verlaine and protect Princess Xiaoye!

Mission Rewards: Experience points, 5 card draws, 500 mall coins, 1 mysterious gift...

Join teammates: ???】

Player: “!!!”

What is this? The long-awaited main quest!

What is this? The player has collected all six pieces of the mysterious gift puzzle, only missing the last one!

Can players finally open blind boxes? !

Players must complete this mission!!!

"In order to take Nakahara Chuuya away, we have to sever all ties with him. What kind of plundering scenario is this?"

"Damn Weilun, he actually wanted to take away Chuuya, who I had pried away from the 'Sheep' with great difficulty! No matter who you are, come at me!" The little player had a loud voice.

"I will definitely protect Princess Xiaoye!"

Nakahara Chuuya: "...Hey, Chief, what do you mean by 'I finally managed to pry it away from you'?"

Joining the Port Mafia was my own choice, okay?

The player who invited Chuuya Nakahara three times: "? Do you think anyone can be invited three times by other players?

"It's not that simple, Chief, no, Chiyo."

"Paul Verlaine, like me, was once a spy for a European supernatural organization. We were once close partners. I am undoubtedly the person who knows best how powerful he is."

"But that was only seven years ago."

Rambo stroked his long hair, looking at the little leader's tender face and the golden pacifier on her neck, and said with some melancholy, "As a transcendent-level esper, his assassination ability is extremely high, so he is known as the Assassination King. The esper abilities he possesses are almost identical to Chuuya's. Not only that..."

"Wait a minute, the same as me?" Nakahara Chuuya suddenly interrupted Rimbaud and asked anxiously, "Brother Rimbaud, if that's what you mean, then that Verlaine is mine...?!"

Rimbaud said nothing, just nodded.

The orange-haired NPC suddenly fell into a long silence, and the watching players made such a judgment.

"Transcendence... what is that?" a player raised their hand and asked, "Does it mean they have stronger supernatural powers?"

"A transcendent is someone who surpasses ordinary people with special abilities. There is nothing wrong with the leader's explanation." Rambo said this with his eyes half closed.

Player: ...Isn't it the same as Shibusawa Tatsuhiko?

During the negotiation, the player accidentally heard Cricket Shibusawa Ryuhiko from the Special Ability Agent Department say that the NPC with long white hair was the first person under the Transcendence.

If it was someone with the fighting power of Shibusawa Tatsuhiko...

Players who recalled Shibusawa Tatsuhiko's performance in the Dragon Head War: "..."

The combat power of the NPC with long white hair seems to be quite average?

"Please inform the Port Mafia officials of this news, Boss."

"There's still a gap between those who transcend, let alone the barrier between true transcendents and those who are about to reach the transcendent level."

As if he knew what the leader was thinking, Rambo suddenly stood up and walked to the side of the small leader. With his eyes lowered and his left leg slightly bent, he took the player's hand and half-knelt, saying, "Paul is coming with such force that he's bound to do something irrational. To avoid more casualties, we must be prepared."

Friends and relatives who exchanged names with him...

Why did things come to this between the two of them?

Is it really wrong for me to keep emphasizing that the other party is a human being?

As Rimbaud made this plea to the young leader, his thoughts returned to the day he had discovered Arabato—that merciless shot, the other party's unwavering betrayal, and the fierce determination to take Nakahara Chuuya away...

Do you have the same idea this time, Paul? Want to take your brother, Chuuya Nakahara, away?

Rambo looked at Nakahara Chuuya, who seemed a little panicked but had a blazing fire burning in the depths of his eyes, and his eyes became firm again.

"No matter what, this time, I will definitely stop you, my relatives and friends."

I'll ask you to listen to my explanation later...

Just as the player summoned the Port Mafia cadres to a meeting, a new visitor appeared in the lobby of the port building.
