Kou Amakusa Is Just A Small Fry
As he was about to enter the underwear store, Haru noticed a guy with a strange tuxedo pattern walking toward him with a smile.
'No, he should be looking at Kanon?'
Haru looked at Kanon, who pulled him toward the store and didn't seem to notice the guy. He then looked at the guy and could clearly feel even though the guy was smiling, this guy was cruel, especially when he smelled the smell of blood coming from him so without hesitation, he used his telepathy to control the mind of this person, but...
'Huh?'
Haru was quite surprised when his telepathy didn't work, but he didn't lose his calm and quickly thought that this guy wasn't a living being. His telepathy was strong and he could control any living being, but his telepathy ability couldn't control something that didn't have a soul or a mind such as a robot or something similar.
"Onii-san, what's wrong?" Kanon asked curiously since Haru seemed to look somewhere, but her vision was covered by him and she heard his voice.
"I was just thinking about what kind of underwear would be suitable for you," Haru said with a serious expression as if he was in deep thought, but when he thought about it, he felt that Kanon would be suitable in anything whether it was a white color which enhanced her pure image, or black that would make her naughty somehow.
"O - Onii-san!" Kanon's face was so red since she didn't expect Haru would be so bold, but then she quickly pulled him the store, asking him which underwears that she should buy and wear for later, maybe, she should also show it to him so he could tell which underwear that would be perfect for her.
Looking at Kanon's shy and eager expression, Haru smiled and entered the store. As for the guy that was about to approach them, he had pulled the guy into the shadow world by using the power of "Kage Kage no Mi" that he borrowed from Jeanne.
Right now, Haru had an important mission and he couldn't be bothered by something like a small fry like this person. Still, he was quite interested in that guy and might use him for an experiment since it was rare that his telepathy ability didn't work.
---
Everyone enjoyed their time in the department store before they went back together.
Nagisa was quite sad when she was separated from her friends and Haru, but her living place was different from theirs and she was living with her brother. Even though she also wanted to live with Haru, she felt that it was a bit too bold if she
Nagisa sighed, but she wouldn't give up!
As Haru, Himeragi, and Kanon returned, everyone was there and they ate dinner together, talking, and playing together before they went to rest.
Haru then went to visit Rin and Asagi and started their match again, and as expected, they lost to him. He was living as usual as if he forgot about the guy that wanted to harm Kanon at the department store before, but he didn't forget and when they were sleeping, he entered the shadow world where he imprisoned the guy.
As he entered, Haru quickly heard the loud cry of the guy.
"Let me go, you bastard!" When the guy saw Haru, he wanted to attack Haru, but somehow, he couldn't use his power in this dark space. However, it was normal since Haru also used the power of his "Seal Magic" on this shadow world so no one could use their power beside him.
Haru didn't talk with this guy and closed the mouth of the guy with his zipper manipulation before he walked toward him. His telepathy might be useless against this guy, but it didn't mean he couldn't get information from him.
Without hesitation, Haru used the power of "Heaven's Door" and turned this guy's into a book. From then on, he got all the information about this guy.
"Kou Amatsuka, huh?"
As Haru read all the information about Kou's, Kou showed a horror expression. He had become a book and all the information inside him was revealed to Haru, which made him realize that his action to attack Haru on the department store was too rash. He tried to scream, but no words came out of his mouth. He tried to escape, but his body couldn't move. He could just lay there and listen to Haru, who read all the information on his head loudly, in terror.
Reading Kou's information, Haru understood more or less Kou's identity.
Kou Amatsuka, a homunculus alchemist who is Nina Adelard's apprentice (legendary alchemist). He wishes to become human by reviving Wiseman to restore his body.
Still, even though Kou was a homunculus, he was different from Astarte or Yuuma, who had a human body. Kou's true form was just a steel liquid, which was why Haru couldn't use telepathy on him since this guy wasn't a living being, and it was also the reason why Kou wanted to become a human.
Haru didn't care about Kou or Kou's ambition, but since this guy had decided to become his enemy, then he wouldn't hesitate to erase him. He knew that Kou was unlucky since Kou had been fooled by Wiseman.
Wiseman wanted to live again in this world and by using Kou and tempting him to turn him into a human.
Even though Kou was fooled, it didn't mean he was innocent since there were a lot of lives that had been taken by him so after Haru used Kou, he would discard him. He wasn't someone who was afraid of blood and killing like how he used to be and Kou wasn't a human, and Kou was also different from Yuuma and Astarte so he didn't have any guilty feelings.
More importantly, Haru was interested in Kou's knowledge about alchemists. This ability might not be that strong, compared to the vampire who could summon the Vassal Beast, but it was convenient and also an ability that could make its user rich.
Haru wouldn't use a complicated explanation to explain the alchemist, but in simple terms, this was an ability to manipulate a matter. If he had to give an example, he could change a rock into diamond or gold, it was simply a money-making ability.
Kou looked at Haru, who kept reading all of his information and tried to fight back, but when it was futile, he could just lay there with half-dead eyes, looking at the dark ceiling, showing that he had given up.
However, Haru knew that if this guy was given a chance, Kou would fight back, but then, he smiled and took something from Kou's pocket directly and when he did this, Kou quickly tried to fight back, but it was futile.
Looking at the blood-red ball in his hand, Haru looked at it for a moment and couldn't help but say the name of this ball. "Wiseman Blood, huh?" Then he looked at Kou again and saw him, looking at him in anger and horror, and he was sure that Kou wouldn't expect that he would be in the same position as his victims in the past.
Then without hesitation, Haru grabbed Kou and went to the monastery where Kanon was living in the past, and at the same time, he had to admit that his uncle-in-law was a bit tsundere since even though Kensei was attacked by Kou, Kensei had never told him anything. He thought for a moment and thought that he should visit Kensei later with Kanon, that way, Kensei might feel happy.
