Chapter 80: Godzilla and the Little Yellow Duckling
Lu Chen and the young girl stared at each for more than half a minute before the young girl made another move. She picked up the little notebook, turned the page, and started writing again.
“(Godzilla)?” The word on the notebook was nonsensical, but Lu Chen was stunned for a moment and nodded his head.
Then he saw the girl go through a series of emotions, as if she were peeved and pouting. Her cheeks slightly puffed up, the young girl was holding her breath.
Lu Chen was a little confused. Did he do something wrong?
“One more game?” The new words written on the notebook were like codewords. Lu Chen instantly reacted. The girl in front of him couldn’t be…
“Little Yellow Duckling?” Lu Chen cautiously asked.
The girl turned the page and wrote another line, introducing herself as: “Uesugi Erii.”
Lu Chen suddenly came to a realization. It was actually the Erii on the leaderboard!
He could never have imagined that he would be able to meet his ingame friend while wandering aimlessly in the world’s most populous city during a mission. What was the godly probability of this happening?
Yet he didn’t expect Erii to actually be a girl. He really thought she’d be, like Finger described, a “foot-scratching dude.”
“Then you’re currently-?” After learning of the other person’s identity, Lu Chen was much less formal. After all, this was an “old friend” who’s played games together for at least a few months now.
“Home is too boring, out to play,” Erii wrote.
At this time, the surrounding crowd had also gradually dispersed. They sensed that the girl seemed to know the teenager, so it’d be okay to leave her in his reliable hands.
Lu Chen took a look at Erii’s costume and resisted the urge to question why she was wearing a miko costume. Maybe it was her hobby, like what Senior Brother Finger said, cosplay or something. He had cosplayed as an ancient swordsman yesterday anyway.
“I’m also bored, how about… one more game?” Lu Chen’s eyes suddenly lit up. He usually played with her while he was alone in his dorm, and now the real person was in front of him. Why worry about being bored and having nothing to do?
Erii didn’t use her notebook and merely nodded.
20 minutes later, Lu Chen and Erii arrived at the nearest arcade.

“Young Master!”
Crow hurriedly barged into Gen Chisei’s room, only to find Chisei with his kimono only half worn, not fully clothed, yet not fully unclothed either. The whole situation was a little embarrassing, and Crow subconsciously covered his eyes, which made Chisei’s forehead veins bulge even more.
“What’re you covering your eyes for, hurry up and talk!” Chisei was a little infuriated and thought, we’re both guys. What’d you cover your eyes for? Acting like I’m a shy girl or something.

“The Uesugi Clan Head… is talking to someone,” Crow regained his breath and said.
“Hm? It should be fine. Erii doesn’t talk to strangers,” Chisei was tense for a moment, then relaxed. It wasn’t the first time this sort of thing happened. He had already told Erii that if she were to run out if she were bored, then she must not talk to strangers no matter what, and Erii had always obeyed.
“But… but Young Master. The Uesugi Clan Head, she, she… she went away with someone,” Crow stammered, wondering if this counted as a slap to the young master’s face. If so, then did he have to cut his fingers off?
“Ngh!?” Chisei was fastening his belt when his hand shook. The lacquered black belt fell to the ground, and along with it the clothing that it was supposed to fasten…
Crow covered his eyes again.
“What! What are you saying!? Erii went away with someone!? What the hell was the team inside the building doing!” Chisei didn’t care about that and rushed toward Crow.
Crow thought, Young Master, you already told those people to be on standby and not trigger the Uesugi Clan Head in any way. And, you also explicitly and implicitly said they were all weaklings, incapable of stopping her.
Young Master… talk about double standards.
Sigh, it was so hard for the people below to make a living. Crow somewhat felt bad for those clan members in charge of monitoring Erii.
“Young Master, please calm down, I’m not finished yet…” But Crow’s words were interrupted as Chisei grabbed him by the collar, “What! Is there something else?”
Chisei could not imagine it at all. If Erii had run away with someone, wasn’t this the end? Unless some greasy old man took her away with impure intentions in mind?
As he thought of this, his body emitted a frightening murderous aura, making even Crow shudder. He was sure now, Young Master is a sis-con!
But the truth wasn’t what Crow had thought. Gen Chisei wasn’t worried about Erii’s wellbeing—he was worried about Tokyo’s wellbeing!
If someone had bad intentions towards Erii which triggered her into going on a rampage, then it would be like having a 2nd generation species revive in the middle of Tokyo!
“No… Young Master, the person who took Erii away is someone we saw yesterday, the headquarters visiting delegation’s Lu Chen,” Crow hurriedly explained, thinking that Lu Chen was a little monster in his own right. If the Uesugi Clan Head really went on a rampage, there was no telling who would bite whom.
Crow felt the young master’s grip on his shirt collar loosen, then let go. Gen Chisei regained his composure, paced a bit, then began calmly changing his clothes again.
“Young Master?” Crow was puzzled over how the young master suddenly stopped panicking.
But in reality, with his back facing towards Crow, Chisei’s face was dark. He did not panic, but started to worry about other things.
“Tell Sakura to get ready. I’m going to see my old man early.”
This matter must’ve already reached Pops’s ears before it did his, and he had to ask for his opinion.
If Erii was taken away by a stranger, then this matter could be characterized as a coincidence and accident, but she was taken away by the S-grade agent of the headquarters!
What did the headquarters mean by this? Had they discovered the clan’s secrets and had begun abducting their weapons?
This matter was more troublesome than he’d thought. If Erii were taken away by an ordinary person, he could find the person and give him a warning, or have Crow and Yasha do what they did best, and Erii would obediently go home with him. She was merely curious about the outside world and nothing more.
But it was different if that person was Lu Chen. He was a super hybrid capable of abusing and killing a 3rd generation dragon. Even if he used Kingship, he wasn’t certain he could suppress the other person. If he took a hard-handed approach that resulted in a fight, it could trigger Erii.
Lu Chen himself was a little monster who had surpassed the likes of the 3rd generation dragons. If those two little monsters stormed together, Tokyo was likely to become history.
“Showing your fangs so soon, ace of the headquarters,” Chisei muttered to himself as he put his kimono on, picked up Kumosetsu, and looked at the painting on the wall.
The family believed him to be Amaterasu’s reincarnation. If that were true, then Erii was the Yamata-no-Orochi’s Tsukuyomi reincarnate. She was the sword that could help the Yamata-no-Orochi cut off their destiny!
In matters concerning Erii, the Yamata-no-Orochi would never give in.
