Chapter 359 - 359 Comfort

359 Comfort

“By the way, my name is Mikami Gakkai, and this is my grandson, Mikami Genta.

“How may I address you, young man?” the old fisherman asked.

“I’m Wang Ran,” Wang Ran replied.

“Wang Ran-san, from your looks, you should be an Awakened One, right?

“I’m not that capable, but my grandson has some talent. He’s already a rank-one at such a young age,” the old fisherman, Gakkai, said proudly.

“I’m… A rank-three,” Wang Ran quietly said.

“Ho, you could be an officer at camp!” Gakkai exclaimed.

“I’m not interested in that.

“I just wish to drift by and kill time,” Wang Ran said with a smile.

He was not going back to that life.

“Ah, that’s a pity…

“We’re preparing to return now. Do you want to come with us?” Gakkai asked.

“Sure. I hope you have takoyaki there, I quite miss them.”

Wang Ran nodded.

“Alright, I’m going to sail the ship.

“Genta, you should spend some time with Wang Ran-san. He’s a rank-three!”

The old fisherman patted his grandson’s head.

Genta nodded and sat beside Wang Ran.

After the old fisherman left, Genta moved closer to Wang Ran.

“Big brother, can you tell me how I can become stronger?” Genta asked with a sincere expression.

He was facing a rank-three Awakened One.

He had to learn from him.

“Become stronger?

“You’re just a kid. Why do you want to become stronger?

“Do you want to be an officer of the camp?” Wang Ran asked with a smile.

“No, that’s not it!

“I want to become stronger and save my sister!” Genta clenched his fist and said.

“Your sister?

“Has she been captured?” Wang Ran asked curiously.

“No…

“My sister is a shrine maiden. They all say that my sister is very talented and can save the world.

“I heard that they plan to sacrifice my sister to the Gods in a ritual…

“I don’t want my sister to save the world. I just want my sister to live …

“If I can become stronger, I can take my sister back from the hands of the shrine!” Genta said with a determined expression.

“Sacrifice…

“What era is it now? Are people here still so superstitious?

“This virus is clearly a f*cking produce of science…”

Wang Ran was at a loss for words.

However, Genta and his grandfather had both expressed their goodwill to Wang Ran. Wang Ran always responded in kind, be it in kindness or in violence. He had the time to spare, so he would help this pair.

“You want to become stronger, don’t you?

“Are you afraid of suffering?” Wang Ran asked.

“I’m not afraid!

“As long as I can become stronger, I’m not afraid of anything!” Genta said as he raised his head.

After becoming stronger, not only would he be able to protect his grandfather, but he would also be able to save his sister.

What’s the big deal with suffering a little?!

Wang Ran smiled. This child was quite gutsy, so he would satisfy him.

Wang Ran took out a dagger.

“This’ll hurt a little. Bear with it.”

Wang Ran warned him.

He planned to make a few cuts on Genta’s body and give him some of his blood.

Of course, drinking Wang Ran’s blood would also work. However, it had been proven in practice that if one absorbed Wang Ran’s blood through an open wound, it would take effect much faster.

Since Genta wanted to become stronger so badly, Wang Ran was going to give it a little oomph.

On the one hand, he could save a lot of time. On the other hand, Wang Ran also wanted the boy to value this strength, having paid such a price for it.

If he did not put his money where his mouth was, Wang Ran would help him too much.

“Come on! I’m not afraid!”

Genta rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his arm.

Wang Ran took the dagger and made a ten-centimeter-long cut on Genta’s arm.

Genta’s arm was clearly trembling.

Wang Ran could see that he was enduring the pain.

However, this matter wasn’t over with just one strike.

Wang Ran continued to cut Genta’s arm with the knife.

Soon, seven or eight long wounds appeared on Genta’s arm, and blood kept dripping.

Genta’s face also began to turn pale.

“Hey! What are you doing?!”

A fisherman who was passing by on the deck saw this scene and immediately rushed over.

“Uncle Yamada, this big brother is helping me!”

Genta immediately extended his hand to stop the fisherman.

The fisherman was stunned.

“Uncle Yamada, go do what you need to do. Don’t mind me.”

Genta gritted his teeth and continued.

Although the fisherman was a little worried, he walked away hesitantly.

Wang Ran looked at Genta with a look of admiration.

This child was not bad. He would definitely achieve great things in the future.

Next up was the main event.

Wang Ran cut his own arm.

Fresh blood continuously dripped onto Genta’s wound.

“Ah! This feeling…

“It’s so comfortable…”

Genta suddenly widened his eyes.

As soon as his wound came into contact with Wang Ran’s blood, the pain suddenly lessened.

There was also a very warm sensation.

When he looked again, he found that his wound had actually started to heal!

This was magical!

In a few minutes, Genta’s arm had fully recovered, leaving on shallow scars.

At the same time, Genta felt a powerful force coursing through his body.

“BOOM!”

A burst of energy burst out.

Genta had been promoted to a rank-two!

“Ah, big brother, I’m…”

“Have you advanced?”

Genta jumped up in excitement.

This was just like the first time he let himself loose in front of a magazine. It was euphoric.

“I’m not done yet. Do you want to continue?” Wang Ran asked with a smile.

“Come, other than my treasure, you can cut anywhere else!” Genta said excitedly.

Wang Ran’s face twitched.

This child seemed to be jumping the gun.

However, Wang Ran was also curious to know if severed manhoods would grow back when in contact with his blood.

In the future, he could perhaps use it as a form of torture.

Wang Ran continued to repeat the process on Genta’s other arm and two legs.

Genta endured it all without a word.

The desire for strength and the joy of improving his strength allowed him to withstand the pain.

Half an hour later, Genta advanced again.

He had become a rank-three!

He had turned into the strongest person on this ship, other than Wang Ran.

“Big brother! Thank you!

“Wait until I save my sister. I’ll definitely make her marry you!” Genta said excitedly.

“Ah…

“There’s no need for that.”

Wang Ran waved his hand and turned him down.

He was on a vacation. If he brought another girl back, he would not hear the end of it from the girls back home.
