Duel.
Just as Naruto was about to agree, he found that the mercenaries were in a commotion. He couldn't help but frown. He followed the mercenaries 'gaze and saw a man with a gloomy face and a thick murderous aura carrying a bag full of blood. He walked in…
When the mercenaries saw him, it was as if they had seen a plague. Wherever he went, they would make way for him.
The man looked at Naruto and his gang standing in front of the counter and said coldly,""Move aside!"
Naruto shrugged and signaled for everyone to move aside.
But just as Naruto was about to ask Sophie who this person was, Dedale shouted,""Kid, why are you asking us to make way? Don't you understand the principle of first come, first served? Yes ~"
That person didn't say anything and only released his killing intent and bloody aura. However, Naruto's group wasn't weak, so how could Dedale be scared by this bit of killing intent? He just continued to stare at that person angrily, sparks of battle burning in his eyes.
That person seemed to be interested in Dedale, and a bright light flashed in his eyes. It seemed like he was ready to make a move.
Naruto raised his eyebrows and said,"Move aside."”
"What right do you have, Boss?" Dedale said indignantly."Such a weak guy. Let alone you, even I can defeat him with one hand!" I want him to taste my art! Yes!" These words caused the mercenaries to be shocked. What could make this young man say such arrogant words? However, no matter how they looked at it, they could not tell. There were no battle energy or magic waves. However, even if it was a support profession, most of them did not have much strength. Thinking that this young man might die tragically in the hands of the Bloody Mad Demon, they couldn't help but sigh. (Because ninjas are good at concealing themselves. If they aren't good at concealing themselves, you'd better not be a ninja.) Although Dedale loved explosions and did things in a flamboyant manner, things like chakras were relatively hidden.
Naruto couldn't help but think," Although it's just a hand, it doesn't make a difference whether it's a hand or not. At most, it'll take a little longer to make explosive clay. It won't affect you at all, right?"”
Although he thought so, he couldn't say so. Naruto pretended to be angry and said,""I told you to move away, so move away. Why are you talking so much nonsense?”
Although Dedale had a flamboyant personality, Naruto had already trained him to be docile in the Naruto World. If there was someone he feared the most, Little Deeny would definitely say that it was Naruto. Even though he was still a little unconvinced, he still obediently stood to the side.
"Sigh, they're going to be in trouble. You have to know that the Mad Bloody Demon isn't a kind person. If you provoke him, don't even think about living a good life. The yellow-haired kid just now dared to speak arrogantly. He believed that the Mad Bloody Demon would not let them off.”The mercenaries were trembling with fear, but no one dared to stop them.
Surprisingly, the Bloody Demon only looked at Naruto and his gang with interest before walking to the counter.
Naruto sat next to a mercenary and asked,""Eh? Why are you all so afraid of him? Tell me his story.”
The mercenary saw that the Mad Demon was handing in the mission and couldn't take it for a while. He swallowed his saliva and said with some fear,"If we're talking about famous people in the mercenary world, then this 'Bloody Mad Demon' definitely has a spot.”
The mercenary took a sip of wine to embolden himself before continuing,"Although this fellow is quite powerful, roughly at the eighth step (even though everyone below the Saint-level is considered ants), he is still a powerful being. However, there were still people who were stronger than him in the mercenary world. Logically speaking, such a weak person should not be famous in the mercenary world. However, he was famous for his ruthlessness and unscrupulous methods to complete missions. He was the last to enjoy killing his enemies and thus increase his strength. Moreover, there were many bloody rumors about him. Over time, people gave him the nickname 'Bloody Maniac.' From then on, people privately called him Bloody Maniac. Decades later, no one knew his real name. However, he suddenly disappeared more than ten years ago. Many people guessed that he had died in the mission or was killed by his enemies. He did not expect it to appear again.”
" Legend has it," the mercenary stole a glance at the busy Mad Bloody Demon and continued,""He once killed the entire family of the mayor of a town, not even the children or the elderly. But before killing them all, he let them enjoy a torture banquet and tortured them to death one by one.”
Naruto and the others frowned. This kind of person was too bloody. When the kind-hearted Hatata heard this, her legs went soft and she almost fell. Naruto quickly hugged Hinata, and his gaze towards the Bloody Mad Demon was no longer as calm as before.
According to Naruto's plan, no matter who you are, if you make my Hatata uncomfortable, I'll play you to death!
As if reading Naruto's mind, the mercenary continued,""Don't misunderstand. The people he kills are usually people who have committed many crimes and deserve to die. It was just that his methods were too bloody and cruel. Generally speaking, the job of being hired to kill should be given to the Assassin Guild or the Thief Guild. Mercenaries did not bother to do these missions, so the mercenary world also called him the shame of the mercenary world. You don't have to worry too much. He always has a rule that he will warn you once before fighting you. You're new here, and he didn't tell you to move first, so I don't think he'll kill you. At most, I'll let you suffer a little.”
Just as Naruto was about to continue the conversation, the mercenary saw the 'Bloody Mad Demon' walking straight towards them. His legs couldn't help but tremble. He forced a smile and said to Naruto and the others,""That…that's all I can do. I'm really sorry. You guys are on your own!"
Naruto looked at him and said unhappily,""What? Looking for trouble?"
"No, I'm here to duel with the kid who wanted to beat me up with one hand!"”The bloody eyes stared at Dedale, making Dedale wonder if he wanted to be gay.
This duel was a way of settling disputes in the Endless Sky Continent. Life and death were decided by fate and had nothing to do with others (In other words, after one party died, the other party's companions and relatives could not take revenge.）Once the duel began with the blood contract, the power of the gods would descend to protect the contract. Once someone broke the contract, they would suffer the disaster of extinction.
"Little brother, don't be afraid of him. I'm here today. Let's see if he dares to touch you!”Dedale was just about to fly into a rage when he saw Sophie take out a greatsword from somewhere and stand in front of that person with a heroic aura. She didn't hide her battle energy as she wantonly rampaged, and her wings were beautiful and full of explosive power.
"This…this is the symbol of a Tier 8 Swordsman!”A mercenary who knew what was good could not help but exclaim when he saw it, instantly causing a commotion in the guild.
The Mad Bloody Demon seemed to be a little afraid. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and left.
"Tsk, woman, don't block my way. I just said that I'll teach him a lesson with one hand. As an artist, how can I go back on my word? Come over here!" Dedale impatiently pushed Sophie away and stood in front of that person. He bit his thumb to force out some blood and pointed at him. This was a ritual formed by the duel. Both parties had to bite their thumbs to let the blood flow on their thumbs, and then press them together. Only then would the duel contract take effect.
"Eh? How can you be like this? No, you can't sign such a contract with him!”Sophie looked at him and immediately became anxious. She wanted to interrupt him, but she couldn't. She could only watch as the other party quickly bit his thumb and pressed it against Dedale's thumb.
"Sigh, it's over now. Even if God comes, he won't be able to save him.”Sophie sighed.
A divine light appeared in the sky and shone on Dedale and the others. Dedale only felt some restrictions in his consciousness. No one else was allowed to join the duel.
"Hmm? " Naruto," Nine Tails suddenly opened her eyes in Naruto's spiritual world and said,""I can feel the aura of a god. It's too powerful. I've only felt an aura as powerful as this from Immortal Six Paths.”
Naruto couldn't help but become serious. If that was really the case…
Sophie looked at Naruto, who seemed to be deep in thought, and sighed.""Hey, you're only starting to understand now? It's too late! That person was very obedient to you just now. As his companion, why didn't you persuade him?”
Naruto looked up into Sophie's beautiful eyes and chuckled.""I wasn't thinking about their duel.”He stood up, looked at Sophie, and said,""Don't worry. Little Deeny is very strong. It's definitely beyond your imagination.”Although he did not know what the levels in this world were like, based on the aura emitted by Sophie just now, if this was the strength of an eighth-tier, then Deeny would not be able to do it.
Naruto looked at Dedale's back and couldn't help feeling bored. The difference in strength in this battle was too great.
When the man saw the contract, he stuck out his scarlet tongue and licked his dry lips."Alright, since the contract has been formed, follow me. Go outside and fight."
" Tsk…" Dedale said disdainfully and swaggered out.
"Let's go." Naruto looked at everyone and said.
Although the mercenaries were afraid of the Bloody Demon, they couldn't help but follow him out.
Sophie also sighed and followed him out, hoping that the handsome little brother was not exaggerating. Otherwise, that blond young man would probably be in trouble…
