Kaito Shirogane simply looked at the Heart Demon without responding.
Hunting a Supre Being?
Although he didn't know the exact strength of the Heart Demon, since the Nexus ranked her alongside the Moon Fiend and the Balrog, she was likely a Reincarnator of the sa tier.
For a [Strong]-tier Reincarnator to talk about hunting a Supre Being... that could only be considered a ridiculous joke.
Even though he hadn't seen a Supre Being in action, Kaito had witnessed [Kalpa], who claid to be a follower of [The Final Day], use that special ability back in The Boys world.
A pitch-black sun descended, destroying almost everything. Even Holander, with his powerful physique, was cursed to death on the spot.
That was rely the effect produced by a [Mortal]-tier Reincarnator. If the Supre Being themselves used it, Kaito couldn't even imagine the scale and destructive power of such a move.
In truth, he had always been sowhat curious about just how far the top-tier Reincarnators in the Nexus could go at the current stage.
Judging from Lee Chae-rin's full-power swordsmanship, a top-tier sword-user of the [Strong] rank could already easily destroy a city block. Given enough ti and a lack of counterasures, she should also be capable of causing paralyzing destruction to a large city.
In terms of pure destructive capability, the ones who caused the most terrain damage were definitely the spellcasters, elent dominators, or Logia Devil Fruit users.
Kaito guessed that a [Cataclysm]-tier Reincarnator was likely capable of destroying a city.
In the current Nexus, the [Four Demons] were seen as potential Title-level Reincarnators because they rose quickly and possessed rule-breaking combat power. Therefore, Title-level Reincarnators likely possessed [Cataclysm]-tier combat power.
Extrapolating from this, a [Supre Being] would conservatively be estimated at [Berserk]-tier strength. If a [Cataclysm]-tier Reincarnator could destroy a city, then a [Supre Being] should possess the ability to inflict devastating destruction upon a small country.
The news he received earlier about [The Final Day] wanting to establish [The Final Empire] on the ocean also corroborated this. He wasn't afraid to challenge the order of the real world.
"Alright, I admit, the Supre Beings are currently a little bit stronger than us. But we can start by pruning their followers~"
"I know that [Kalpa] was killed by you, rcenary Tao. You see? You actually achieved that kind of feat one step ahead of . As expected of the guy I acknowledge."
In the woman's childish voice, there was also an unconcealable arrogance. That ntality of judging everything purely by her own standards was sothing Kaito was quite familiar with.
Kaito turned around. Although he had cooperated with Black Butler a few tis, he wasn't going to discuss hunting the followers of a Supre Being right in front of him.
He walked over to Lee Chae-rin and checked the offers received at the stall. Most were in Singularities and Dinsional Points. Perhaps because he had just listed the items, he hadn't received a price that satisfied him yet.
For popular items like these, one had to wait for the news to spread so that large teams could co with suitable resources.
Information brokers like Black Butler also needed ti to scour for the things Kaito wanted.
In a sense, these brokers played a very important role in transactions. To facilitate deals and benefit themselves, they would do everything possible to investigate the resources possessed by both parties, as well as the resources they desired. They would even infer a Reincarnator's preferred ability composition based on their combat style.
This kind of 'considerate' service often helped Reincarnators who only excelled at fighting to get what they wanted as quickly as possible.
Kaito was preparing to return to the real world to continue perfecting his 'paradise,' but just then, he received a new offer.
[HX77754611 (Midnight Watch) sent an offer: Secret Manual · Ice Heart Mantra (B ) in exchange for the item in your stall: Drop Card (Naki)]
The girl's voice continued to whisper in his ear.
"I know that woman Luo Xi gave you the [Wind God Legs], and you obtained the [Satsui no Hado] from Rose Tiger. This [Ice Heart Mantra] is the perfect fit for you, isn't it?"
Kaito turned his head and spoke directly.
"Midnight Watch? I didn't expect the [Heart Demon]'s codena to not be 'Heart Demon'..."
Hearing rcenary Tao speak, both Black Butler and Lee Chae-rin suddenly realized that the Heart Demon was nearby. Since Lee Chae-rin had been approached by the Heart Demon before, she wasn't too surprised. However, Black Butler's expression changed drastically. Showing rare panic, he looked around.
The Heart Demon, codenad [Midnight Watch], knew that rcenary Tao had deliberately pointed out her codena and presence, just as she had deliberately ntioned knowing about his transactions with Luo Xi and Rose Tiger.
She wasn't worried. She wasn't one of those people obsessed with fa. A codena could be changed at any ti. Moreover, seeing the fear in that sowhat famous broker, [Black Butler], gave her great satisfaction.
"Except for those few idiots, who in this day and age still hangs the word 'Demon' or 'God' on their lips? Heh~"
The woman's mocking voice appeared simultaneously in the ears of Black Butler and Lee Chae-rin. This caused the expression beneath Lee Chae-rin's mask to shift slightly, though she didn't retort.
She also saw the newly appeared offer and turned to look at Kaito.
Kaito took the blue Drop Card of Naki from the stall and let it float in his palm as he looked at the petite woman.
"Miss Heart Demon, who isn't an idiot... you want this Drop Card. Do you possess a thod for targeted extraction?"
[Biwa Demon · Naki's Drop Card (Blue)]. If this item didn't yield Naki's bloodline ability, its value was almost negligible.
But the Heart Demon had specifically brought out the [Ice Heart Mantra]. Clearly, she was determined to get this Drop Card. That was why Kaito asked if she had a way to target specific drops.
The corners of the woman's mouth curled up into a clear smile.
"The answer to that isn't cheap. I can only tell you if you agree to join my plan~"
[You have accepted the offer from HX77754611 (Midnight Watch)]
[You have lost Drop Card (Naki)]
[You have obtained Secret Manual · Ice Heart Mantra (B )]
Kaito didn't lose out on this trade. Without targeted extraction, Naki's Drop Card would likely only yield so Dinsional Points or items/materials from her, none of which would be of high value rank-wise.
Although the [Ice Heart Mantra] had a B rating, it had no offensive capabilities, so it wasn't a very liquid asset among Reincarnators.
[Secret Manual · Ice Heart Mantra]
[Quality: Rare]
[Description: The family cultivation thod of the Nie family from the Feng Yun derivative world. possess the unique effect of suppressing demonic nature.]
[Usage Requirent: Spirit > 9]
[Effect: Learn the ability Ice Heart Mantra (B ) upon use.]
Kaito wasn't sure if the Ice Heart Mantra would be effective against the Satsui no Hado, but since he learned from Luo Xi that the Second Ladder involved the control and exploration of energy, he was prepared to try out internal cultivation thods like the Ice Heart Mantra.
The transaction complete, the Heart Demon played with the Drop Card in her hand. She spoke to Kaito with a hint of aning.
"rcenary Tao, rember to pay attention to the news from Japan in the coming days. I'll make you understand that cooperating with is a wise choice."
With a flash of light, the Heart Demon seed to leave the public space directly. Hearing her words, Black Butler looked nervous as he warned Kaito.
"You'd better be careful. The [Heart Demon] might possess so kind of ultra-long-range killing ability. So suspect she obtained the [Death Note]. Once she gets real information, it's very likely the target will be killed without even seeing her..."
Black Butler had investigated the [Heart Demon] before, but after finding just a little bit of information, he dared not dig deeper. This person's combat power might not be the strongest among the Four Demons, but her danger level was absolutely the highest.
Hearing this, Kaito beca even more interested. He wanted to see what the result would be when a veteran Reincarnator like this launched a frontal assault on the high-ranking officials of a nation.
