The Legacy System

The next day Eric brought Takeshiba Aika and the three teams of death soldiers at the Fragrance Hall in preparation for what was to come.

He let the teams of death soldiers take positions in the surroundings, while he didn't like the fact that they would make him lose a lot of Exp, and SP points, he didn't dare think he could handle it himself.

​​

He explicitly told them to mix with the surroundings, and don't show themselves until he gave them the sign, but with their rigid looks, a few were bound to be alert his enemy.

But he was also kind of hoping for something like this, because only like that would he be able to keep them tense all the time, and maybe overthink some things.

According to the information Shiro had gathered on Master Miura, he had considerable manpower, composed of more than 200 people with levels varying from 10-20.

One in ten of them also had a level between 20-25, as Master Miura himself was a fighter of level 30. These were quite amazing numbers for a just ascended 2nd rate family.

But he guessed that it was a given seeing how Master Miura was a genius in his own right, and also a sly fox that was rare to be found.

It was his bad luck to have a useless and idiot of a son that he had, otherwise he would have been able to ascend the Miura family to the strongest 2nd rate family in Japan.

The worst part of his bad luck was that his son had messed with him. If he hadn't crossed paths with Eric so soon, perhaps he would have been able to create his own power after the S-day.

But since Eric hadn't heard anything about him in his previous life, he was sure that either he worked as a counselor to one of the big Empires, or he had suffered the same fate as right now.

Sometimes karma was a dirty b*tch and that was precisely the case with Master Miura. Only that in his case karma took the form of his idiot son.

Of course, Eric wouldn't trust 100% the Yakuza's information, as for someone like Master Miura it was impossible not to have one or two hidden trump cards.

As for the Ito family, and its master, he didn't care much. That guy was an idiot that Master Miura was using to reach his goals.

That was shown by the attitude of his own son towards the Ito girls, and also their repulsiveness towards him.

While he had a considerable force under him, he would only be an idiot to bring them all out in this case. There was also the possibility of them being just cannon fodder.

With these thoughts in mind, Eric took Takeshiba Aika behind him and went to enter the restaurant from the back entrance.

Today the restaurant was supposed to be closed for renovations, and the staff had been advised not to come to work.

Yet there were two staff workers at the back door, trying to open the door, followed by more than 20 people, in levels varying from 10-20.

The strongest was a level 22 fighter, who seemed to even have military training in stealth and covert operations.

This kind of guy was the worst to come across, as they were really good with their techniques, and if someone didn't have a spirit sense like Eric, it would be difficult to even notice them.

Just like he thought, he wasn't the only person to have made a few preparations in light of the upcoming events, but he was glad to have found these mice so easy.

With his spirit sense spread all over the area, he tried to snoop on their conversations, as two people were truly talking about the current situation,

Guy #1:" I hate this sh*t, we are all here just to kill some kid. If you ask me it's our Young Master's fault for being such a sissy, and not having the power to protect himself.

As for those guys with him, after spending their time with Young Master, they lost their abilities and became worthless trash. The only thing they can do now is drink, and think about women."

Hearing his words, his companion looked wearily on the others, as he said,

Guy #2:" You idiot, don't say those things out loud, otherwise someone might hear you and report it to Master.

You know what kind of guy he is, and what he would do to you, so be careful and pay attention to your surroundings.

Master said that we need to be careful as this kid didn't seem ordinary. I would want to die because of your long tongue, or blind eyes."

The first guy seemed to still not agree with his friend, but the moment he heard his Master's name a shiver clearly passed through his spine.

Then he said in a respectful and frightened voice,

Guy #1:" You are right, with Master's temper he would surely skin us alive. Damn, I admire that man. Not only is he strong, but he also is so smart and sly, that no one could even do anything to him.

Once they understand what is going on, they are already breathing their last."

The second guy clearly shared the same thought as he said with a reverent voice,

Guy #2:" Yes you are right, Master is really smart and strong. The other day I heard he fought with our 5 strongest, who are all level 31, and won.

People are saying that Master is probably around level 34 or 35. I don't know how he is growing so strong, but he is clearly a monster to us."

The first guy was just nodding his head in accordance while thinking even more highly of their Master, but then remembering something, he said with a grin to his friend,

Guy #1:" By the way Old Take, do you think that person besides the fatty was a woman. Those two trashes that Master bought, said that sometimes that kid would bring women in his private box!

Perhaps if we are lucky, Master will let us have some fun after killing that wimpy kid. I am so jealous of these rich kids!"

Too bad that his friend didn't seem able to answer him, and when he turned his head to look at his friend he was only meet with the figure of a grinning kid, in his twenties.

This guy's figure matched with their targets, but before he could even think of making a move, a cold steel knife penetrated his chest and his heart.

Since these guys were here to kill him, then Eric didn't need to be polite with them, and he could kill to his heart's content.

And the best thing for him was that each time he killed someone the Exp, and SP points he earned were multiplied by 100.

Just by killing these 20 something guys, he had managed to farm 2600 Exp and SP points. Since these guys' levels were good, especially that level 21 guy, he gave him 300 Exp and SP points.

At the moment, after this entire haul, Eric had finally surpassed the cap of level 20, as he was now level 23.

But his fighting prowess was 5 levels above his, and if he fought without caring about his life, 6 was his limit.

Not to mention that this was only the welcoming gift that Master Miura had sent him, and pretty soon would come the main gift, which would give him phoenix wings in this situation.

He was a bit worried about Master Miura's strength at first, but now thinking of the gift that was coming towards him, he suddenly felt energized and couldn't wait.

The plan to deal with him was really simple actually, he decided to let the three-team leaders stall him, as he slowly farmed and raised his level, and then kill him.

With the power and help of the system in consistently increasing his strength, as he fought, then dealing with the army that was coming for him was really easy in his mind.

But right now he had a huge problem in front of him, what should he do with the dead bodies around him. He didn't have any skill at the moment, to create incinerating fire to burn them to ashes.

And burning them with normal fire would just pull the attention towards him, so he didn't know what to do with them at the moment when he heard a notification from his system.

! System has discovered a lot of corpses around the host, with a high concentration of death energy. System asks for permission from the host, to refine these bodies, and create a Death pill.

This pill will help the host increase his cultivation, and also a possibility to learn the death law! Does the Host approve of the opportunity? YES/NO

Seeing this Eric felt overly existed, it looked like the Heavens were truly helping him, as he immediately pressed YES. He couldn't care less about the feelings of the dead idiots around him.

As soon as he pressed YES, an invisible wave blew around the place making all the corpses around disappear in thin air.

Seeing this situation Takeshiba Aika was frightened to death, perhaps if she didn't totally abide by Eric's words, one day she would be one of those bodies down there.

There were women in that group, but Eric didn't seem to care at all about gender. He used the same strength and killing intent that he used on the males.

Probably if Eric heard her thoughts, he would say that he hadn't heard bigger sh*t, that he couldn't kick, and kill a woman who wanted to kill him.

In front of death, there was no gender division, cultural division, or any kind of division for that matter. Death took them all the same, so why should he care about someone who wanted to kill him.

But now he didn't have time to deal with that, as he took Takeshiba Aika, and entered the restaurant while making way towards his private box, where Akira and Shiro were waiting for him…
