Chapter 162 - #162Expenditure

"... Master?"

"Mr. Fang?"

Fang Wuwei's actions naturally drew everyone's attention, especially when he spewed out tea and then coughed uncontrollably.

"Cough, cough… I… cough… I'm fine, I just… cough… choked."

He gestured with his hand to indicate there was no need to worry. Under everyone's gaze, Fang Wuwei finally managed to stop coughing, but the surprise and doubt in his heart did not diminish at all.

"Mr. Ikenouchi, you just said his name is Ye Tian?!"

"Yes… yes."

"And he *[redacted]* calls himself the Dragon King?!"

"Yes… Mr. Fang, do you know him?!"

Damn it!!!

Fang Wuwei slapped his forehead abruptly, feeling a jolt of numbness in his head. He felt like his CPU was burning up.

"Mr. Ikenouchi, could you please tell me more about that Ye Tian?"

Facing such an abnormal Fang Wuwei, although Ikenouchi Toyohiko was still somewhat puzzled, he nevertheless began to tell Fang Wuwei what he wanted to know.

"I don't know much about that person… but he is definitely not a good person.

He has many wives and concubines, is incredibly promiscuous, and it even evolved into a pathological possessiveness where he must get his hands on any beautiful woman he sees, completely disregarding that our Other World also practices monogamy.

However, he is also incredibly powerful and exceptionally talented… It is said that it only took him a few years from the time he first encountered magic to become the strongest Archmage in the Buren Family and even among all magic families.

What's even more terrifying is that he possesses a whole host of abilities that we can't quite comprehend, incredibly bizarre…

Oh, and his favorite phrase is 'You are courting death.'

That's it.

Fang Wuwei clapped his hands, his face full of helplessness and displeasure.

A Transmigrator, and a *[redacted]* Transmigrator with a golden finger, lording it over everyone there.

Sighing deeply, Fang Wuwei resigned himself… Originally, he had no interest in that so-called Other World, but now it seemed he had no choice but to go.

But he didn't know why the system hadn't given him a notification… Could it be because he wouldn't pose a threat to this world?

Even so, he had to go. This kind of person reminded him of the protagonists of urban web novels from his school days in his previous life… almost exactly the same. He had to go and see.

"Mr. Fang… what exactly is wrong with you?"

Ikenouchi Nami felt uneasy. Fang Wuwei was so agitated upon hearing about Ye Tian, and she was afraid they knew each other… Moreover, the name Fang Wuwei sounded like it came from the same place as that Ye Tian.

It couldn't be…

Fortunately, Fang Wuwei waved his hand, signaling her not to worry.

"His existence is somewhat unexpected… but it doesn't matter, it's just a bit of overtime."

Overtime? Work? Work…

Ikenouchi Maki's eyes lit up.

"Master, Master! Are you saying that overtime means… that Ye Tian is also like those Reincarnators?!"

"Yes."

Ikenouchi Maki became excited, her spirits soaring.

Good! This makes things much better!!!

Maki had never heard her parents speak of the past, and now hearing it, she was greatly angered… That so-called Ye Tian was simply unreasonable.

She really wanted to go and kill him to avenge her parents, but she was afraid she couldn't beat him… Now it seemed, if Master also went, then it would be stable!!

The encrypted conversation left the others puzzled, but from the situation… it seemed Mr. Fang was going to deal with that Ye Tian?!

That's great! The Ikenouchi's revival was in sight!

But can Mr. Fang beat him…

This was a question worth pondering, but for Ikenouchi Maki, it wasn't an issue.

When Fang Wuwei evolved his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, he once used Ikenouchi Maki to activate Iron Man 1v1 Arena to test its power.

Inside, Ikenouchi Maki had seen that two-hundred-meter-tall orange Gundam. That day, she gained a new understanding of her Master's power.

Never mind… When I can go to that Other World, I'll take a look… It's not necessarily about killing him.

"Alright, Mr. Ikenouchi, honestly, what I'm most curious about now is that magic crystal, and how you came to this world."

The Ikenouchi couple exchanged glances.

"Although our Ikenouchi is weak, it is quite ancient. According to our ancestors' records, in that Other World, a passage connecting our world to another world would open every day at four in the afternoon, but it would only last for one second each time."

Fang Wuwei's eyes narrowed. Why did this setting sound so familiar?

"It's just that the location where it opens is not fixed each time, but according to our ancestors, if the passage opens in a certain place, there will be signs. The magic power will rapidly decrease, presumably consumed from the air to open the passage.

However, such a passage, due to insufficient magic power, cannot allow people through, only magic… Although we had never encountered it before, in that Other World, we had no home, living in constant fear. That was our only retreat."

"So you went to look for that passage."

Ikenouchi Nami nodded, tears no longer flowing down her face.

"Fortunately, we found it, but unfortunately… we were also found by Ye Tian himself, who led people to us."

Ikenouchi Toyohiko closed his eyes in pain, recalling this past event.

"...Since I was the family head at the time, everyone in the clan… voluntarily sacrificed themselves to ensure Nami and I could leave safely.

To solve the problem of insufficient magic power in the passage to allow people through, we consumed all our magic crystals, allowing the passage to permit living beings, and its duration was greatly extended, from one second to five seconds.

But… five seconds was still too short.

Nami and I, even at the cost of draining our magic power and destroying our Magic Circuits, could only maintain this time, just enough for the two of us to barely pass through.

And, what I worried about most was Ye Tian's roar at us before we left."

Unbeknownst to them, Totsuka Matsuo and Fang Wuwei had already become immersed in this tragic story.

"That beast Ye Tian said that he would find us, no matter where we went, even to the ends of the earth…"

Alright, I have to go there, and I'll probably have to confront this Ye Tian.

Headache…

"Since then, we have lived in fear, but even after we had been here for ten years, started a business, and even had Maki, he never appeared.

We thought… everything was over…"

Ikenouchi Toyohiko looked at the emblem, his face filled with immeasurable pain.

"Mr. Ikenouchi… have you never thought of revenge?"

Ikenouchi Toyohiko was stunned upon hearing this, then let out a self-deprecating laugh.

Revenge? Of course he had thought about it! But, could he do it?!

The Ikenouchi, even at their peak, were crippled by Ye Tian, and now only the three of them remained. Their Magic Circuits were destroyed, and Maki was someone completely unable to use magic.

Their only hope was for Fang Wuwei to act, but the two who had not seen Fang Wuwei's power even believed that Fang Wuwei couldn't defeat Ye Tian… After all, he was very strong…

The Ikenouchi couple did not respond, and the air fell silent.

Finally, it was Fang Wuwei who broke the silence.

"Mr. Ikenouchi… where did you land when you arrived in this world?"

"…An empty lot."

"...Please follow me."

Fang Wuwei said this cryptic remark, then left, leading the way, leaving the others behind.

Despite their confusion, the Ikenouchi couple still followed, and Totsuka Matsuo naturally wouldn't be left behind either.

Fang Wuwei rode his Cavaliere in front, leading the way, while Totsuka Matsuo sat in the Ikenouchi's car, following behind Fang Wuwei.

Until Fang Wuwei led them to a place that looked incredibly familiar to the Ikenouchi couple.

"Yes! This is it! That high-voltage power tower and everything here hasn't changed at all!"

Ikenouchi Toyohiko shouted, pointing at the empty lot, while Fang Wuwei felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

This place was where the Special Point was located. The Special Point recorded in Yuta's dark notebook was probably the passage connecting the worlds that the Ikenouchi couple spoke of.

In other words, the Other World they spoke of was actually the inner world of this world!

Alright, this time, he really had no choice but to deal with that Transmigrator.
