561 Mutilation Addiction ?

Nanako rolled her eyes and said, "How can the Meteorite Fragments be with me? Even though they said they were my bridal gift, that was just for show. Do you think they would actually give them to me?"

She shook her head and said, "Don't even talk about gifting. The Meteorite Fragments never reached our side. They are still with the Hattori family. They said they will only give them to me at the wedding."

As she said that, she blinked a few times before she realized that Zhao Yao had disappeared.

"This guy…"

Of course, Zhao Yao had rushed over to the Hattori family's home. He had a mission to accomplish. The Meteorite Fragments were related to Kaede Hattori.

Kaede Hattori was like a huge treasure chest that Zhao Yao found. First, because of the 3000*2 experience points to be gained from the Criminal Diao Bao mission. Second, because he still had a burning exclamation mark on his head which carried an unknown mission.

Coupled with the Meteorite Fragments, this was good stuff. Zhao Yao's current collection of meteorite fragments was at 5%. With every 10% he collected, he would receive 1 extra skill point. This was very tempting for Zhao Yao. He felt torn every time he had to choose between upgrading his supercats or his book level.

Two missions coupled with a rock made Kaede Hattori appear more alluring than ever to Zhao Yao.

However, the Hattori family currently had great power and influence. It surely had its fair share of supercats and apostles. Before he headed over to the Hattori family, Zhao Yao decided to use up all his experience points to upgrade Elizabeth's powers.

Before doing so, he took a look at his own panel.

Book: Level 6 (40 002/20,000)

Matcha: Level 8 (2 210/50 000)

Elizabeth: Level 7 (2 200/20 000)

Dust Ball: Level 8 (23 055/50 000)

Ares: Level 7 (2 200/20 000)

Lucifer: Level 6 (5 100/10 000)

Sphynx Cat: Level 6 (2 500/10 000)

Satisfied, Zhao Yao used all his experience points to upgrade Elizabeth, giving her 17 800 points.

At once, his and Elizabeth's panel showed: Book: Level 6 (22 202/20 000); Elizabeth: Level 8 (0/50 000)

Zhao Yao tapped on Elizabeth's ability tree and was shocked to see two new abilities:

Extended Power of Illusion: After casting the power of illusion, its effects will linger for another 10 minutes even after it has ended. The user can actively deactivate this effect.

Power of Illusion Reversal: Reverse the power of illusion cast by the opponent.

When he saw the two skills, Zhao Yao was disappointed, "Why wasn't the Sixth Sense illusion upgraded?" He sighed. Due to his difficulty controlling the Sixth Sense illusion, Zhao Yao had upgraded Elizabeth first so that he could upgrade this ability.

Alas, there was no such option in Elizabeth's Level 8 abilities. Although these two new abilities were pretty good, they were not what Zhao Yao was expecting.

Zhao Yao believed that as long as he continued upgrading, he would eventually receive an upgrade for the Sixth Sense illusion.

Looking at the two new abilities, Zhao Yao started to think more about them.

There was no doubt about the power of the Extended Power of Illusion. If one wave of illusion was released at the start of the battle, he could switch to another ability, which meant that he could use two abilities at once to fight.

As for the Power of Illusion Reversal, though it was not of much use now since Zhao Yao had rarely met an opponent who could cast the Power of Illusion on him, it would become a priceless skill if he did meet such an opponent in future.

Zhao Yao thought for a while before choosing the Extended Power of Illusion. After all, this ability could greatly increase his fighting power, while the Power of Illusion Reversal was only limited to illusions, which was too narrow a range for it to be put to use. He already had the power to deflect illusions with the deflective shield.

After adding the ability, Zhao Yao activated the supercat armor system and shouted at each of his supercats to come out.

For this trip to the Hattori family, Zhao Yao was fully prepared. Not only did he call out all the supercats in the supercat armor, but he also activated the dragoon combat system. Mango, Rice Cake, Fish Ball and Lightning floated around him, constituting the perfect attack-defense system.

…

The moment he arrived at the Hattori family's home, Zhao Yao heard a gut-wrenching scream which gave him goosebumps all over his body.

"Eh? What's happening?" He immediately sneaked into the Hattori household and followed the sound. He entered smoothly using Roly Poly's power of invisibility and Elizabeth's power of illusion until he reached another courtyard.

He saw countless servants and butlers walking in and out anxiously. When Zhao Yao walked in, he saw that the person screaming in agony was Kappei Hattori. He was sweating profusely. His face was distorted in pain as he continued to scream in agony. The bottom half of his body was drenched in blood.

"Why!" Kappei Hattori screamed out in agony, "I didn't feel pain before this, why… Why is it like this?"

When he saw what had happened, Zhao Yao was shocked. "S*it, I forgot to ask Lucifer to retract his powers yesterday. Don't tell me this guy…"

Zhao Yao looked up to scan the surroundings and saw that the tables, floor, walls and the television were all covered in fresh blood. The amount of blood was definitely more than that of an adult man.

Zhao Yao took a deep breath, "This guy… So he was playing the whole night?" From this point on, Zhao Yao resolved to use Lucifer's power as his last resort. The power was too devilish.

Since the night before, when Kappei Hattori found out that he had the power of super-regeneration and a fetish for pain, he had become hopelessly obsessed with it. The toxic effect of super-regeneration increased the pleasure he felt with the pain, far exceeding that of sex or even drugs.

It seemed like after a few tries, Kappei Hattori got high from the sensation and decided to have fun the whole night. After each time he mutilated himself, he lay on the floor, quietly enjoying the pleasure he felt from the pain, staining the whole room as a result.

If this had happened to Kaede Hattori, he would have used his strong willpower to resist the addictive nature of such pleasure. Kappei Hattori obviously could not do this, hence his current state.

Staring at the scene before him, Zhao Yao had no choice but to call Lucifer out again to lend the other party his power while maintaining his own invisibility.

Looking at Kappei Hattori, who was now writhing and rolling his eyes in pleasure at the feeling of regeneration, Zhao Yao wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead and thought to himself, "D*mn it, what now? Am I supposed to tell Nanako: 'Sorry, I accidentally made your fiancé addicted to mutilation'?"

That should definitely not be said.

Looking at Kappei Hattori who was still deep in his pleasure, Zhao Yao thought, "There's no other choice. This marriage can't happen, not until Kappei Hattori is cured of his addiction."

Zhao Yao saw that a new mission had appeared on his mission panel.

Mission: Premature Death by Mutilation

Mission Objective: Prevent the marriage between Kappei Hattori and Nanako Kujyo from happening or treat Kappei Hattori's mutilation addiction.

Reward: Achieve one of the objectives to get 1000 experience points.

Punishment: Become addicted to mutilation for a day.
