âTamiko, are you free tonight?â Miyazaki Yuuichi asked softly with a smile, staring into the girlâs eyes.
After dating her for some time, he felt that the time was now ripe. Tonight, he should be able to reap this beautiful flower.
Tamikoâs beautiful face directly blushed red, thinking to herself, -Ah, why is Yuuichi-kun so direct? Should I say yes or no...-
Tamiko was looking down, hiding her embarrassment when she suddenly heard a soft sound next to her. Afterwards, a few drops of lukewarm fluid spattered on her face.
Immediately after, she heard a loud thump. It sounded like something heavy fell on the ground.
She raised her head slightly, and instantly an extremely terrified look crossed her face. She screamed out in shock in a high decibel voice.
Miyazaki Yuuichi, who had just made his âexcessiveâ request to her, had fallen to the ground. A long arrow made of alloy metal had shot through his head, right between his brows.
Miyazaki Yuuichiâs face was still showing an anticipatory smile. His wide eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
It was like he couldnât accept the cruel reality at the moment of his death.
Following Tamikoâs sharp screech, the whole school broke into a commotion.
At the same time, a few figures suddenly came from different corners of the school, as swift as the wind and lightning, running in the direction the arrow was shot from.

On the roof a thousand meters away, Zhang Che quickly put away the Fallen Star bow right after he released the arrow. Afterwards, he jumped to the side, onto the adjacent roof. A long whip suddenly appeared in his hand, coiled onto the branch of a tree by the street, and he swung over like Spider-man.
By the time those silhouettes came chasing from the campus and arrived at the rooftop, there was no sign of Zhang Che. They only managed to catch a glimpse of his figure â it was a tall caucasian male, his blond hair was especially eye-catching.
The leader of the group was a well-built middle-aged man in his forties or fifties. Seeing the complicated residential district in front of them, he could only scatter the team and hope to catch up to the assassin. âSpread out and give chase!â
Of course, they were very clear in their hearts that it was almost impossible to catch him in such an environment.
However, the victim was a descendant of the Miyazaki Clan, after all. If the institution didnât do a thing, they would be hard-pressed to explain themselves.
âYes sir!â his followers acknowledged respectfully, then scattered out towards the alleys in the residential area, searching thoroughly.
The well-built leader looked ahead with his eyes narrowed. In the next moment, he decided on a direction and quickly sped off.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After he turned a few corners, a boy about sixteen or seventeen years old suddenly appeared ahead of him, walking in his direction. Sensing the middle-aged manâs terrifying aura around him, the teenager fell to the ground, sitting on his butt. His face went pale from fright, on the verge of tears.
The man only glanced over this boy before he continued running forward with long strides.
The boy on the ground let out a long sigh of relief. He quickly crawled up to his feet clumsily, running out of the alley in the opposite direction.
However, in the next moment, a rush of wind blew back. That middle-aged man actually came running back, stopping the boy.
âDid you see a tall blond caucasian man?â the man asked with a low voice, staring at the boy.
The boyâs eyes were filled with fear. He opened his mouth, unable to say a word, only managing to shake his head, his body trembling.
Whoosh! Another rush of wind blew. The middle-aged man disappeared from the boyâs sight again in an instant.
â
The boyâs face was ghostly pale, staggering out of the alley.
âHow freaking close! Luckily I can transform my body at will, or I might not be able to get away if that man caught up to me.â
This boy was naturally the assassin who had completed his mission, Zhang Che!
He totally didnât expect such a powerful figure to be hiding in Rejingâs National Beastmaster Institution. That arrow of his had instantly alerted that man just as Zhang Che released it, and that man immediately gave chase.
Although he didnât know exactly how strong that man was, judging from that robust aura he was emitting, Zhang Che surmised that the man was at least a Tier Seven beastmaster. His physique was tempered in every way with soul force, far exceeding that of any ordinary man.
How could such a man be lacking powerful subdued beasts?
If Zhang Che didnât have the Myriad Transformation Lizard card, granting him the ability to disguise himself as he wished, it would have been an extremely difficult task to escape from the pursuit of that expert.
-Indeed, I canât underestimate the experts in the world just because of my fortuitous encounters!- , Zhang Che lamented as he walked out the alley with quick steps.
It seemed like he had to be much more cautious in his next operation. He couldnât afford to be careless at all.
He was in a foreign land, after all. No one would be there to help him if anything happened. If he really found himself in a difficult situation, it would be way too difficult to escape!

Soon, the Miyazaki Clan received news of Miyazaki Yuuichi being assassinated on the campus grounds.
This was the first time a member of the Miyazaki Clan was assassinated on their home turf. It could be well imagined how furious they were.
The Miyazaki Clan mobilized their forces right away, investigating that assassin with all their might.
Soon, a first-hand information report was submitted to the Miyazaki Clanâs executives.
Not only that, they even obtained the surveillance feed of a satellite in outer space, fully exposing the assassinâs body build and facial features.
However, everything came to an end there.
It was as if that caucasian man had appeared from thin air. There wasnât any information on the man in any of Rejingâs border records. It was like he just popped up in Rejing out of nowhere.
Also, after that man completed his assassination, he quickly escape into the dense residential area nearby. Due to the obstruction of the houses and trees, the surveillance satellite was unable to determine his eventual whereabouts. It was like he just disappeared from the world.
Miyazaki Takehara smashed a porcelain teacup on the ground furiously. He gave an order with a darkened expression, âGo investigate this matter thoroughly! Even if Rejing has to be turned upside down, you have to find that guy who dared to challenge our Miyazaki Clan!â
ââ
The assassination of a Miyazaki Clanâs descendant had stirred all of Rejing.
However, there was no progress on the investigation of that Caucasian. During the next twelve hours, more grievous news arrived. Two more Miyazaki Clan members were assassinated!
Although those two members werenât from the younger generation, each of them were middle level members in charge of certain affairs. Their cause of death was exactly the same as Miyazaki Yuuichi: shot through the head with an alloy arrow from a kilometer away!
Not only that, the ones who sniped them were a black man and a bald, well-built Caucasian man.
It was obvious that this was a premeditated conspiracy from some overseas faction to assassinate the Miyazaki Clan members.
The Miyazaki Clan was thoroughly enraged!
They had never suffered such provocation before. Having three important clan members assassinated in a day, not to mention it being done within their sphere of influence! How could they possibly endure this?
Thereafter, the Miyazaki Clan mobilized all their forces, conducting a thorough search, leaving almost no stone untouched. They searched through the streets and alleys of Japan, as well as the hotels and inns.
Not only that, the Miyazaki Clanâs search this time not only had their attention on the unfamiliar white and black people, they also investigated any people with questionable origins.
Zhang Che knew that it was impossible for him to continue taking action.
If he insisted on doing so, he might run into the experts of the Miyazaki Clan. At that time, he might not even have the time to switch identities, and could only surrender obediently.
