Chapter 75 - The City Bosses (41.2)

Game

Thoughts

"Talking"

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"T-Thank you so much, Saiyan! What can we do to repay you?" A Yardratian asked, the pink man's wide eyes staring up at Gray with reverence.

"Eh? You don't gotta do anything, I'm doing this because I want to." Gray waved off the man.

More specifically, I'm doing this to complete the quest. Both quests.

After defeating the first 'city-boss', Dohnaseek, as well as the one in the nearest city after that, the system had deemed it fit to give him a side-quest.

[Quest]

Defeat All The City Bosses on Yardrat!

Rewards:

+1,000,000 XP

+100 Attribute points (10x multiplier from [Nightmare Mode])

A random [Common] [Magical] skill!

Failure:

Nothing!

A magical skill is still a magical skill, even if it's common.

The previous common magical skill Gray had gotten, [Attack Boost], was pretty decent despite being common - he hoped, at least. He hadn't tried it yet, considering he didn't have MP before, and now that he did it was with a terrible exchange rate.

Gray didn't want to risk draining his Ki to try and improve the ratio just yet, as even if it seemed like all Kalawarna and Mittelt would do if he was exhausted and defenseless was go after his dick, he still didn't want to leave himself in a weakened state.

"S-So selfless… you're a hero!" The Yardratian muttered, staring at Gray with huge eyes, "I'll tell everyone about what you did! We'll build a statue in your honor!"

"...You really don't gotta do that," Gray answered dryly but then shrugged as he thought about it, "Actually, fuck it. Go do that. Make a big-ass one too."

Wouldn't hurt to have an entire planet on my side.

Gray was currently standing in a large dark room that acted as a prison/holding area for the Yardratians who were being experimented on. There were lines of cells that had been holding the Yardratians just a few minutes ago, and Gray was going through setting them free after dealing with the city boss.

There had been multiple rooms just like this, both in the large building and in the other cities that Gray had been to. And so, as he defeated one city boss after another, he found himself being constantly praised as a hero by the Yardratians he freed.

They're way too naive.

The Yardratians tended to be very optimistic - they naturally assumed the best in everyone and tried to have the highest opinion they could. That had fucked them over before - as they had welcomed the demons who went on to enslave them with open arms - but was great for Gray. Whenever he openly told them he was just freeing their planet for his own selfish reasons, having no desire to be viewed as a hero or savior, they had taken that as him being humble.

And so, he had already been told that he'd have some type of monument built in his honor in a dozen different cities. That was on top of the literal hundreds of Yardratians who had said they'd 'die for him' and the tens of elders who had asked him to marry their daughters. 

Usually, I wouldn't turn down random women being thrown at me, but…

The Yardratian women tended to not look much different from the men - that is to say, they're round, bald, and overall not Gray's type.

"Yes! It will be bigger than even the tallest building!" The Yardratian nodded excitedly, "Also, it would be an honor if you would marry my daught-"

Not happening.

"Gotta go," Gray cut him off bluntly, turning back toward Raynare, Kalawarna, and Mittelt as he nodded for them to start leaving, "There are more people to save, y'know?"

"R-Right! A hero's work is never done!" The Yardratian nodded rapidly, "Good luck, Saiyan Gray!"

"Annoying rats," Kalawarna muttered under her breath as the four of them walked out of the dark prison area, "They think you want to marry one of those ugly little things? You need a girl with big tits and a fat ass, right babe?"

I'm not mad that she's calling me that now, but it's kind of weird. I've only known her for about a day.

"Right! Master wants an obedient girl who'll do whatever he says, and that has a bubble butt he can spank when she misbehaves!" Mittelt agreed, nodding sagely, "Not one of those smart-ass rats!"

She's also been getting more intense with her 'master' stuff.

"...He needs a girl who can take control after a hard day of fighting, with big tits and a large ass that he can worship while she whips him…" Raynare muttered, her version being overly specific as she wore her dominatrix-like latex bikini.

Even she's getting in on it now.

+200 Reputation with Kalawarna (For being strong) [4x from [Ladies Man], [A Humble Master]] 

This is a cheat code. It's actually a cheat code.

Over the course of the past day, Gray had gotten a lot of reputation updates. A lot. Like, over a hundred between the three women. Apparently, him showing off his strength by beating the shit out of and killing their fellow fallen angel commanders was a reputation-farming exploit with the demon girls.

Gray glanced over at Kalawarna, taking in the huge number that just kept climbing with each passing hour.

[Stern] Kalawarna:

[Demon]

Age: 37

PL: 125,900,750

HP: 215,700/215,700

TKI: 2,500/2,500

TMP: 459,700/459,700

Reputation: 7,500/10,000 (Slightly Loved)

[Stern] Modifier - Individuals with this modifier will be naturally stern and unbending.

My highest reputation is with a girl I just met. Also, I can see MP now - cool.

It was strange to have the women fawning over him constantly just for being strong - especially when their reputation went up so much.

Even Celia is barely in the 'slightly loved' tier. Hell, she was willing to die for me when she was only in the 'greatly liked' tier - these demon women are insane.

It was strange to see that his reputation with each of the three women was higher in a day than his reputation with Celia, Saeko, and Asuna got over the course of his entire time on Earth. 

But, it's good to have more people on my side. I just wish they were a bit stronger.

Unfortunately, Gray had the same problem with them that Kokobiel had with all his subordinates - they were weak. Aside from their incredibly sexy bodies, they weren't much help overall.

"Alright, which way now?" Gray asked casually, placing his palm on the wall in front of him. He pushed forward, tearing a hole in the way as he readied himself to jump off the tall building back onto the floor below.

"That was the last one," Raynare answered, then explained as Gray glanced at her questioningly, "Other than Kokobiel, I mean. You took them all down so quickly… I doubt he's even realized yet."

Gray blinked, "I did?"

[Quest Complete]

Defeat All The City Bosses on Yardrat!

Rewards:

+1,000,000 XP

+100 Attribute points (10x multiplier from [Nightmare Mode])

A random [Common] [Magical] skill!

"Fuck yeah," Gray grinned. It had only been a couple of hours since he had started tracking down the city bosses, and he didn't expect to be done nearly this quickly. He was still much slower without his Ki, so it made navigating the planet difficult, but the running itself wouldn't have been the hard part - as he was still capable of running around the entire planet in mere minutes even without Ki. Not being able to sense Ki would've been what made the quest difficult. Luckily, he had Raynare to point him in the right direction, so it didn't take long.

Well, fuck it, might as well spin it now right?

Gray tapped on the magical skill reward.

[Common] [Magical] Skill Gacha Token - A gacha token used to roll the skill gacha, with a 100% chance to roll a [Common] [Magical] skill!

Use [Common] [Magical] Skill Gacha Token?

Yes/No

Gray tapped yes.

[Rolling…]

[Alert!] A 5% LUK event has been hit! [Common] [Magical] Skill Gacha Token was upgraded to [Rare] [Magical] Skill Gacha Token!

Gray blinked, a grin forming on his face.

Thank you, LUK!

[Rare Skill!]

[Tracking MP Blast] - An MP blast that tracks your opponent, following them until it is destroyed.

+10 MP for unlocking an MP-related skill! (10x multiplier from [Nightmare Mode])

Now you wanna give me MP for the skill, dumbass game?!

But, Gray couldn't complain. 

Getting a rare instead of a common is more than I expected, and this skill is pretty decent.

Gray knew that in theory he should be able to create a tracking-type attack on his own, but he hadn't figured it out yet.

Not that I tried very hard either.

Gray had seen one too many tracking blasts end up backfiring on the user, usually by their opponent just running it into them, for him to be desperate to create such an attack. 

It's useful, but unless I can figure out a way to apply it to a Kokuyo-level attack, it doesn't mean much. 

Most normal Ki blasts could just be knocked away or tanked by someone in a fight, and on a deeper level didn't even need to connect. A lot of the time they were used to force your opponent to dodge and put them into a bad spot for a follow-up attack.

"Alright, lead the way," Gray said, nodding at Raynare.

"You want to go already?" Raynare asked, tilting her head at him cutely, "Shouldn't you rest first?"

"Nah," Gray merely chuckled, "I'm not tired. Those were more like warmups than actual fights."

"You're a monster…" Raynare muttered, though her tone was more impressed than fearful.

Ironic coming from a literal demon.

Gray along with the three demon girls quickly left the building, crossing the gap between that city and the largest one, which was essentially like Yardrat's capital, in just a few minutes. 

Damn, it's kind of impressive.

Gray couldn't help but be impressed as he stared up at giant building, which was essentially a skyscraper. From what Raynare had told him, the reason every city had such a large structure in the middle was because it acted like a government building of sorts. 

Not that Yardrat really needed a government - it was apparently more like a council of Elders, and there hadn't been any real political strifle on the planet because of the kind nature of the Yardratians.

But, now the buildings were repurposed by the demons to house the elders that were being experimented on, along with acting as a home for the Fallen Angel commanders. 

"Is he in there?" Gray asked, glancing back at Raynare for confirmation. While the towering buildings acted as the main base of operations for the commanders, it wasn't like they were always in them. Out of the dozens of cities Gray had freed that day, a couple had been empty - forcing him to track down the commander himself.

"He is. He's towards the top," Raynare confirmed - as she was able to sense Magical Power in a similar way to Gray being able to sense Ki within living beings. Compared to Saiyans, in which most couldn't sense energy and needed to use scouters, this was apparently a common ability amongst demons.

"Then, let's get this over with," Gray said simply, a grin forming on his face.

I might actually get a kick out of this.

After beating the asses of the commanders so easily, Gray's Saiyan body was itching for a real fight.

Gray stepped forward, his legs tensing. He pushed upwards, and a moment later a massive crater appeared under him as he shot upwards, bursting through the air. He soared hundreds of feet into the air, idly hearing the flap of his guide's wings as they followed. 

He reached out as he got close to the top, casually placing his palm on the wall. He gripped his hand, his fingers crushing through the wall as he literally tore through it. Gray stepped forward, pushing through the crumbling bit of wall around him as he stepped into the building.

"You finally showed up…" A deep voice resounded, and Gray's grin shifted into a deadpan.

This is way too cliche.

"I've been waiting for you, Saiyan!" Standing in front of Gray, looking as if he had been expecting him, was a man in a large robe. He had a twisted and ugly face, with tipped ears. His eyes were red - not just the pupils, but the entirety of his eyeballs.

However, the most notable part of the man's appearance was the huge, crow-like wings sticking out of his back. Whereas Raynare, Kalawarna, and Mittelt all had a sole pair of wings on their back, this man had five pairs - making for ten total wings.

"Well, at least you cleared out the room for us," Gray replied dryly, looking at the comically empty room around them. It was as if Kokobiel knew it would be trashed during the fight.

Gray used [Observe].

[Cruel] Kokobiel:

[Demon]

Age: 1,780

PL: 1,574,552,000

HP: 1,222,500/1,222,500

TKI: 72,000/72,000

TMP: 1,759,000/1,759,000

Reputation: 0/0 (Neutral)

[Cruel] Modifier - Individuals with this modifier will be naturally cruel.

Over a billion? He's strong.

It was leagues higher than any of the other demons Gray had seen. 

Without my Ki, I'll need to be careful. He probably has a bunch of bullshit-ass magic too.

Slowly, a hungry grin formed on Gray's face.

This'll be fun.
