Chapter 87 About Small Animals
The giant birdball had its bright yellow eyes spinning in circles, and it even bounced once on the ground when it landed.
Incidentally, it bounced X, who was supposed to land on him, to the side. X, who was not very agile, was bounced by the bouncy bird, and it looked like the bird was about to fall on him.
The third cabbage that fell grabbed X's white coat and pulled him back hard, thus saving his supervisor from being crushed into a pancake by the big bird.
With a flip, the God of War, Bo Ming, landed on the ground, holding the greatsword named Bo Ming in one hand and grabbing the supervisor with the other.
Before he could even stand up straight, X caught the lantern that was falling last.
The farce unfolded very quickly, and Verlaine could sense Vivier's calmness after he had rubbed the gravity ball out.
Without a doubt, these two people and the bird were the culprits who caused his ability to open doors abnormally.
He didn't know any of these people, but Camus knew them well, to the point that he would recognize the black-haired young man in the white coat carrying a strangely shaped lantern even if he were reduced to ashes.
It's like he can just summon whoever he wants. He was just thinking that he hadn't been to Japan to see the superpower of the person he adopted because of Verlaine, but then the adoptive parent emerged from the superpower of the "human-machine" he had just raised.
What is this? Are you just letting him take all the loot? Don't tell me he'll take his new pet too.
What you fear most is what comes to pass. The golden-eyed monster tamer looked at him thoughtfully, then at Verlaine.
"You don't know me."
X noticed the unfamiliarity in the eyes of the blond youth who had almost died there not long ago.
People tend to have a deeper memory of struggling between life and death, and it really wasn't long ago. There's no reason for Verlaine to forget someone who almost caused his accidental death.
His tone was full of certainty, while the white-haired boy, who was shorter than him, walked toward the giant bird-shaped monster covered in eyes.
The white-haired boy with a ponytail held a greatsword whose blade and the fur collar on his clothes were covered with the same bright yellow eyes as those on the large black bird.
It's obvious that this garment either originated from that monster or was made in imitation of it.
As he approached, the large bird's bright yellow eyes gleamed, reflecting off the pupils in the twilight.
Camus, seeing the somewhat absurd scene and thinking of the twisted, eerie, blood-red tree, spoke first before his eccentric child could answer.
"Long time no see, Mr. X."
A clear, childlike voice rang out, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
Verlaine was searching his memory because of X's words. He really didn't know this person, but his attitude was as if it was abnormal for him not to know him.
So it turned out to be someone Camus knew? Then why did he ask me? It's inexplicable, and how did he even manage to infiltrate my ability?
Viviel didn't tear them to shreds, which isn't like him.
Just as questions were running through the mind of the Norse god who was being labeled a rebellious child, X had already recognized who the child with the brown and black curly hair was.
Sure enough, the child immediately asked about his special ability in a foreign country.
"How is Meursault?"
It would have been better not to ask, because even X didn't know. He only knew that the fifth brother was definitely not dead, because when he was resurrected not long ago, there was only Gregor.
For specific details, please consult Mr. Adam, the substitute supervisor.
The supervisor, who was involuntarily skipping work, looked at Camus, who was essentially a member of Meursault's family, and couldn't bring himself to say something like, "He's doing just fine."
This unfortunate transcendent being, who had been dragged into a time that didn't belong to him, was still looking at him with questioning eyes, waiting for an answer.
“I haven’t been to the office lately,” X said, choosing to tell the truth as the child looked at him with blue eyes. “But would you like to come with me to see how things are going in Meursault?”
However, knowing that Meursault and his Camus were here doesn't mean they inexplicably returned from that world without companies.
Camus keenly sensed something, cut off the previous sentence, and changed the subject.
If he goes, Verlaine will most likely go with him; what if he gets kidnapped?
"Then how did you manage to escape from his supernatural abilities?"
"His special ability?"
He was just following the big bird to find the exit in the Black Forest. Who said his superpowers were connected to the Black Forest?! Is this a legitimate superpower?
Moreover... speaking of superpowers, X's only impression of Verlaine was that when the Reverse Kabbalah Suppressor was activated, he suddenly collapsed and almost died.
He even startled himself, almost making X think he was sent by Mori Ougai to stage an accident.
Hearing the topic turn to him, the Norse god, who was observing the strange multi-eyed bird, turned around.
Although he was never entirely obedient to Camus, there was nothing unbearable about being with him, especially since the Transcendentalists on Rimbaud's side were increasingly looking down on him, so he stayed obediently with Camus.
However, he was clearly not as free as he had been with Rimbaud. Camus, like everyone else, kept a close eye on him. Indeed... he was not one of them.
The large bird stared intently at the person who exuded a forest aura. He resembled a small animal that had once roamed the forest, and it hadn't encountered such a creature in a long time.
His world is full of Lobotomy Corporation employees, who also need his protection and redemption.
But... this is a small animal! A live small animal! What if it gets eaten by a monster?
The tall, blond youth, with his back to the large bird, was about to walk towards the two people who were talking.
Even with his eyes covered by the righteous judge, the cabbage noticed that something was wrong with the big bird. Its expression had changed. Although it's strange for a bird to have an expression, its demeanor was definitely different.
The next moment, the bird's bright yellow eyes, covering its entire body, suddenly turned red, and its enormous beak began to throb as it tried to wave the lantern in its hand...
The lantern indicated that it was not in His hands. The big bird subconsciously shook its empty claws, which were empty. The lantern had just been intercepted by X.
When X saw the large bird behaving irrationally, he knew it was time to suppress it, since his War God of the Darkness was right next to the bird.
Cabbage was actually waiting for his supervisor's instructions. As soon as the order to suppress the bird came down, he could immediately smash the big bird into a big egg.
Before he could even make a move, Verlaine, who was being stared at by several scarlet eyes, made his move first. The bird was definitely up to no good; its beak covered in sharp teeth made its intentions clear.
It wanted to kill him; Verlaine hadn't wasted his years as an intelligence agent and assassin, and he had originally intended to do so as well.
After all, no one would have a good impression of a foreign object mixed in with "themselves".
"Cabbage, get out of the way!"
No one knew what it was better than X; he used it every day when he was still working at the company.
Verlaine's hand clearly has a small black hole similar to the execution bullet!
The fake level 5 employee, who was actually level 6, with all four attributes at EX level, managed to dodge the fake execution bullet that included him thanks to his extremely high speed.
However... as everyone knows, execution bullets are useless against abnormalities. The giant bird didn't even stop for a moment, and continued to approach the "small animal" in its eyes step by step.
"If that doesn't work, how about this one?"
The golden-haired god smiled, his hands empty, but the great bird's steps slowed, and the ground around him began to crack, the gravity there intensified.
He now experiences several times the force of gravity with every step He takes, yet He seems oblivious to the pain, continuing to advance step by step.
"His special ability is the execution bullet?"
Bai Cai has been recalled. After confirming that Bo Ming, this precious darling, will not cause any problems, the supervisor is also willing to watch the standoff between the man and the bird.
"No, is it gravity?"
Verlaine has now made the bird float, because applying gravity to the alien has almost no effect, but floating is pretty much the same as making it float.
Unless people are organized to fire at Him after He floats up, it can only serve as a temporary containment measure.
"You still bring these...strange creatures with you as always."
Camus was also in the crowd, but he kept comparing the differences between the "tree" from last time and this bird.
The only thing they have in common is that they are all monsters, and they are not easy to kill, or rather... they are impossible to kill.
"Mr. Camus."
X looked at the large bird whose eyes remained red and was somewhat puzzled. At the company, its eyes would only turn such an ominous color when it was planning a "decapitation operation".
But now... He seemed to be drawn by something, as if He wouldn't rest until He killed Verlaine.
"Could you ask Mr. Verlaine to stop? I will send my staff to suppress the big bird."
Verlaine was also puzzled. This ball seemed to be his nemesis. His usually invincible superpower was basically useless against it. The most effective thing was making it float. Was that right?
He wasn't a stubborn person. Since he had told Bird and his gang to let them do it themselves, he didn't need to waste his energy.
He sat back down on the chair in the small garden, took another pear out of his pocket, and withdrew the abnormal gravity field applied to the large bird, intending to see how they would suppress it.
As a result, the blindfolded teenager, wielding a giant sword that looked remarkably like a bird, avoided the bird's beak and, without any fancy moves or special effects, simply chopped at it as if it were chopping wood.
It was simply a matter of chopping there.
But the big bird was only interested in Verlaine and ignored the cabbages that were chasing after him and cutting them down.
But the child with long white hair didn't attack for long before the large bird with many eyes closed its eyes forever, collapsed to the ground, and died.
The pure black sphere gradually shrank, eventually turning into an egg painted with bright yellow eyes.
Camus, observing the cabbage that remained completely still and expressionless, knew in his heart that it was a well-trained fighting machine.
X pulled a box with a logo of nails driven into a brain from his pocket; it was a portable containment device he carried with him.
Bai Cai picked up the bird egg and placed it on the device. The next moment, the device automatically activated, recognized the anomaly's information, and automatically transformed into a size large enough to contain the large bird.
X just contacted the company, and they'll send someone to retrieve the giant bird. By the way... wasn't there a humanoid self-propelled execution bomb just now?
