Chapter 200: Interrogating an intruder

Chapter 200: Interrogating an intruder

In an all-white room that seemed endless.

This was actually the basement of Eiji's house created by Lala using one of her inventions.

In the center of the room, sat a burly two-meter tall man with shoulder-length gray hair. All his clothes and weapons had not been bothered to be stripped off, but his body that was covered in wounds from yesterday was restrained by thick handcuffs that were also one of Lala's inventions. With a little help from Eiji, the handcuffs made of special metal had the ability to seal one's physical and magical powers. This wouldn't work on beings in the divine class or higher, but it was enough to restrain the man who was currently gnashing his teeth and staring at the boy in front of him with hatred!

"Kid, it's rude to treat a guest visiting your home like this. Let go of me, let me beat you up and I'll forget about this matter!"

That boy, Eiji who had just come to the basement of his house looked at the man captured by Lala and the others with a funny look. That big man, he wasn't familiar, but the wounds on his body must have been caused by the anti-male intruder mechanism that had just been installed on the gate of his house yesterday morning. At that time he said let nature take its course but he did not expect that a few hours later there would be someone who actually triggered the mechanism.

This morning after he and Run brought Ai and Kyouko to his house, he had listened to the rest of the detailed explanation from Lala and the others, and he had also introduced Ai and Kyouko to everyone. The two girls were also living in his house now.

But leaving that aside.

Eiji casually waved his hand at the face of the man in front of him, even so the sound of a loud face slap echoed in the room and the man who received the small slap screamed with palm prints on his thick facial skin.

"Ahhh!! Bastard! How dare you slap my face! Kid, no. Eiji Seiya you bastard I'll kill you!!!"

"Hahaha! Kill me? You?" Eiji smiled.

*Slap!*

The man whose face was slapped again felt his head was very dizzy and buzzing, he even spit out some of his teeth because of the slap.

His eyes reddened, he felt very humiliated and looked at Eiji with killing intent.

"Oh? You're not yelling anymore? Good, now let's talk."

Eiji created a chair for himself and sat in front of the man whose hands and feet were handcuffed. His relaxed posture while crossing one leg made the other party even angrier.

"So what did you come to my house for yesterday? By the way, who are you?"

The big man irritably and arrogantly said, "I'm the one the Hero Faction sent to recruit you, bastard. My name is Heracles! Heir to the legendary hero from Greek mythology, Heracles!"

"Now that you know my identity. Quickly release me, let me punch you in the face and beg for my forgiveness! Otherwise, even if Cao Cao values you, I won't let you join the Hero Faction before you---"

*Slap!*

"Eiji! I will kill you! I will kill you! How dare you--"

*Slap!*

"Asshole... You coward, take off these damn cuffs if you dare! Fight with me and I'll definitely stomp you to death!"

"...."

*Slap!*

"You..." Heracles whose face was swollen like a pig stared at Eiji with pulsating veins protruding on his body.

Eiji looked at the man whose muscles were swollen but still could not break free from Lala's handcuffs with disgust. He waved his right hand slightly before saying.

"Your facial skin is very thick. Should I say as expected of the heir of the legendary hero, Heracles?"

"You know what? You should be proud that you were able to withstand 5% of my physical strength without blowing your head off."

Looking at Eiji who stood while cleaning the hand he used to slap him with a napkin, Heracles felt he might explode and die of anger. Of all the people he had faced, only the person in front of him had really made him feel humiliated to this extent.

Cao Cao who had hit him in the past wasn't even this crazy, otherwise he wouldn't be willing to be that man's subordinate.

By the way such a powerful slap was only 5% of his physical strength? Heracles looked at Eiji in disbelief.

On the other side.

The Hero Faction's actual headquarters was located in a hidden location in Tokyo, specifically the Shibamata Taishakuten Shrine which was secretly used as the headquarters of an organization.

Cao Cao sat in his leader's seat, tapping his finger on the table repeatedly with a slightly anxious expression.

"It's been more than a day since Heracles hasn't returned to base and hasn't given us any news. Did he meet a devil or other extremely powerful evil creature on the road and get injured somewhere?"

"Cao Cao, instead of being injured could Heracles have died from being killed? Maybe Eiji killed him because his muscle brain tends to provoke people." Jeanne said skeptically and a little convincingly.

Cao Cao frowned and slightly glared at the blonde woman with a sharp look. "Jeanne, don't speak carelessly. You all know Heracles is the second strongest force after me in the Hero Faction."

"His magic ability is much lower than mine, but Heracles' physical strength is much higher than mine. He's the heir to the spirit of Heracles, the legendary demigod, there's no way he can die so easily, even if his opponent is Eiji."

"In the worst case, I've even told him to run if my plan to make him test Eiji a little before that guy joins up doesn't go well."

If Heracles was here, or perhaps his spirit, he would curse Cao Cao for sending him on a suicide mission. The heir to the spirit of Heracles, the demigod, the what? That his ancestor! Cao Cao overestimated his abilities and underestimated Eiji too much.

Before he even wanted to test Eiji with a bit of fighting and chatting, the moment he walked a few steps to pass through the gate of Eiji's house, a pressure as powerful as a mountain pressed down on his body until he couldn't move and at the same time three kinds of energy shot at him from three sides. Receiving that crazy combo, even Heracles' body that was famous for its strength and durability collapsed.

He was severely injured and fainted, when he woke up he was taunted by Eiji and died with hatred boiling in his heart.

"Hm... So what should we do?"

Jeanne asked again, she doubted what Cao Cao said and believed more that her guess was correct. However, she did not dare to pursue the matter and did not dare to argue with the leader.

To be honest they all already knew Eiji was very strong, she herself was confused as to why Cao Cao had to send a muscle-brain like Heracles to recruit and test Eiji. Obviously it was the worst choice!

Cao Cao who heard Jeanne's question was also confused. At this moment, Georg who was actually the deputy leader of the Hero Faction spoke up

"Cao Cao, how about I go to Eiji's house to check on Heracles' whereabouts? With my Dimension Lost it should be safe for me to come and go quickly if something bad happens."

Dimension Lost, it was Longinus' Sacred Gear that Georg possessed that allowed him to create a special mist that could block any attack, as well as being able to transport anything inside it to an artificial space or another place. It's like teleportation magic but complete with defense and other features to capture people or escape from people.

With his mist moving an entire city or country into the artificial space of Dimension Lost was also actually possible although it required a lot of magic that would make him exhausted. So just to come and go from Eiji's house to confirm Heracles' whereabouts, Georg was very confident.

Cao Cao thought Georg's idea was great, but there was a bad feeling in his heart that made him shake his head.

"No, we should wait for Heracles to return longer before making a decision."

Georg, Jeanne, Leonardo, Perseus, Connia and the rest of the people in the Hero Faction fell silent. Since Cao Cao had already said it, they would do it.

"Alright, which one of you wants a toy. Ahem! I mean Sacred Gear, Variant Detonation whose supposed use can put down anything it touches." Eiji placed the ball of light on the table and looked at all the women in his house.

[By the way it's already over 7 in the morning, why aren't any of these girls going to school? It's Monday.]

You say that, but you haven't gone to school yourself.

The heroines in school uniforms naturally ignored Eiji's shameless words and stared at the ball of light on the table with interest.

Was this really Sacred Gear before it was inserted into someone's body?
