Yohan grumbles as he sat down to rest after a full day out. Not only had the blobs failed to control any of the local monsters, but Yohan also had to dispose of any tracks he might have left behind.

All in all, it was a failed attempt at experimentation, and his whole day had been wasted.

Not to mention, he would have to spend his time outside the comforts of the sector and subject himself to harsh conditions.

'In the end, I overestimated myself and made a mountain out of a molehill. I forgot that the rules that govern this world and my own are different. But it was a good learning experience as well.'

This at least proved that even the fundamentals of the two worlds were not similar. Yohan should not expect things to be the same when he entered a new realm. The lack of dungeons should also have alerted him about this fact.

"Now this is new. I wonder why someone would seek me out this openly."

Yohan questioned out loud as he stood up and pretended to loosen his body up. He was getting ready for a fight.

As soon as he spoke up, the leader from the other party stepped ahead to fight him as well. It was not a familiar face but something about him gave Yohan a familiar feeling. He knew this kind of magic and he had also seen it before.

"Hey, look at our prey today. It's an unsuspecting government sector runt. It will be a big feat tonight once we managed to take his conductor away. One of our own will be able to enter the sector finally."

The leader cheered as he conveyed these thoughts. He eyed Yohan to see where his conductor was located and Yohan let him.

After all, it did not matter to him if he had his conductor or not. It was not like Yohan needed it to perform magi craft when he had his system and a different magical skill level. He could kill everyone in front of him even without lifting his finger if he wanted to.

But it was better for him if he was being underestimated. It gave him room to make these small lives pay for it later.

"Hey boss, maybe it is the thing on his thigh. Doesn't it look a little out of place?"

The small girl who accompanied these raiders pointed out. Yohan had to give it to her, she had sharp eyes to be able to spot the conductor.

Yohan had forgotten that he even had one since he never used it. And he quickly picked up his conductor once it had been pointed out. There was no use in pretending it was not what it was being called.

"Excellent observation girl. Now go ahead and bring that conductor over to us."

The small girl who had looked so proud just a second ago looked terrified now. She looked between Yohan and then the leader with wide and hesitant eyes.

Her small body also shook as she took a hesitant step toward Yohan before stopping short. She did not have enough skills or enough magic to do anything.

"What is the wrong girl? Can you not even obey what I asked you to do?"

The young girl shook her head as she looked toward Yohan again. He remained impassive, interested to see what the small child would do next.

He did not feel sorry for the girl but he did want to see if he needed to interfere now or later. The child would likely be spared if she refused to do this small task she was assigned.

"I d-don't think I can do it. T-This man is scary. His aura is scary and so dark and powerful."

The small girl looked at Yohan and he was sure her eyes shined gold for a second before she looked away. It seemed she had a special ability that would come in handy for the experimentations he wanted to carry out.

Which also meant that he needed to get hold of the girl and make his way back. He would be handing the girl over to Sid once he was back.

"You useless brat. You cannot even do this little thing? You will pay for this later. After all, who else would want you and your ugly eyes."

The girl shrank on herself as soon as she heard the harsh insults that were thrown at her. She looked on the verge of crying and her behavior also said that this was not the first time something like this had happened to her.

Thankfully, her aura did not show signs of physical trauma because that was not something Yohan was willing to put up with.

"I-I am sorry. I will do b-better next time."

The small girl cried out as she tried to protect her face. It seemed like she was still scared of being physically abused without being abused. So maybe she had seen someone else being treated harshly in this way before.

Normally, Yohan would not have interfered in such a display since it was none of his business. But this child was someone he suddenly wanted because of her abilities.

He just had a feeling he would be able to use the child if he brought her with him. Or that was how he justified the protective feeling he felt inside his heart.

"Next time? That was what you said last time as well, Trisha. Tsk, you need to know better. Maybe a slap would fix that bad habit of you lying."

The man raised his hand and was ready to slap the child when Yohan stepped behind her. Everyone except the girl was startled to see Yohan's sudden movement but they did not get to complain.

Yohan caught the raised hand before it could even move and twisted it to break it. The leader of the raider party cried out as soon as he felt the dislocation happen.

"Y-You! What are you doing?"

The leader asked as he let out pain-filled gasps. He could not even speak properly right then since he was feeling so much pressure.

"This child, I will be taking over her now. No, don't speak if you value your life since I am not in any mood to hear you out."

Trisha let out a startled gasp as she was picked up by Yohan. He could head her shivering and her body was stone cold as she went stiff in Yohan's arms.

She was terrified and all for good reasons. It meant that she at last had some sort of survival instincts left inside her body. And it also convinced him that she would do just fine under his leadership.

"H-Hey, where are you taking our golden hen- I mean, my adoptive daughter? You, come back here. What are you all looking at? Hurry up and attack him. Even this child cannot take so many people rushing at him."

The leader finally snapped out of the daze he was in and gave this order. His hand still hurt as he cradled it close to his body. He needed to make sure this child did not leave their hands.

Or else, they would all be killed by their real boss.
