Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 140: Orphelia Landlufen

Chapter 140: Orphelia Landlufen

The sudden reward surprised him, but it was a good thing.

Yet, he had to say this reward was quite strange.

Human.

It was something far from him as he was a youkai.

While he was a human in his previous life, he was no longer one now. While with his tanuki ability, he could shapeshift himself into a human; he wasn't a real human. Instead, it was a work of his ability, like how Helga made herself into a young girl instead of a granny.

However, now, he had become a legit human.

Even so, it didn't mean that he had stopped becoming a youkai. Instead, it was like a dual race. It was a bit similar to half races. Yet, unlike the half race that was a combination of two races, he could either become a complete race of youkai or human.

Frankly, he wasn't sure what to do with this reward.

After all, unlike other races, a human was a helpless being. It was weak when he compared it to Genestellar or other youkais.

What is the use of it?

He wasn't sure, but to begin with, he didn't have that much of an expectation of the reward from Xinglou as she was a side character, yet inwardly, he hoped to receive a martial art talent or something.

Either way, it was his time to go.

After his battle, he was brought to the hospital since his body was in pain after he used that swordsmanship. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong, and he was okay, but at least he needed to rest for a few days, but maybe, they had bribed the doctor, so he was told that he needed to rest for a week.

While he was speechless, he decided to do so, yet he had to say even if his room was VIP, it was so noisy.

Ernesta and Kirin asked him about his swordsmanship, yet how could they not be?

Xinglou Fan, who was known as the strongest being in the world, was beaten by him. While she might not have used all of his power as she was beaten by him first, it didn't change the fact that she was defeated, and it was impossible for her to defeat him, as long as she still had a blind spot.

"Even if you want to, it is hard, you know?"

"Who knows if you don't try?"

"If you can do it, then why not the others?"

Because the others didn't have a system.

Tamazuki rolled his eyes since it was impossible for him to tell the real reason.

As for Xinglou, it seemed she went on the training and left, but she sent her disciples to talk with him about her departure.

It was sad that he couldn't meet her, but his time was limited. If he had time, then he would take down Xinglou's disciples. Unfortunately, he didn't have it. Nevertheless, he saw Julis's cloudy expression.

"What's wrong, Julis?"

"No, no, it's okay." Julis shook her head and didn't want to interrupt him as he was about to leave to train, but her lips were kissed by him.

"...."

When their lips parted, she looked at him in a daze.

"Tell me."

"....."

She sighed, then told him everything. In the end, it had always been like this. She always relied on him since she knew how helpless she was when she was alone, but at least she hoped not to bother him when he was about to depart, yet in the end, she relied on him again.

As she hugged him, he listened to her explanation.

Her wish was simple, and it was to get Orphelia Landlufen back.

They were childhood friends, and Julis wanted Orphelia to return, but Orphelia didn't want to, and even if the IEFs forced Orphellia to do so, it was impossible since Orphelia was too strong.

It was said that Orphellia was on the same level as Xinglou.

The two of them were monsters.

So, even if the IEFs wanted to grant Julis's wish, it was impossible since they couldn't do anything against Orphelia. The only thing that Julis could do was to meet Orphelia and talk by herself since even IEFs were helpless.

If Julis could talk to Orphelia and bring her by her side, no one would be able to stop her since it had been settled that Orphelia was Julis's property.

While Tamazuki was also speechless by how a human was treated like an item, he realized that he hadn't met Orphelia. While he didn't read this story until the end, he wondered what kind of role Orpehelia had. Was she the last villain?

He also wasn't sure what kind of person Julis's childhood friend was.

"Can you meet her now?"

"Um, I can." Julis nodded subconsciously.

"Then, let me meet her."

"....."

"What's with that expression? I am trying to help you." Tamazuki was dissatisfied with Julis's expression.

"Sorry." Julis apologized since she knew that Tamazuki only wanted to help her, but when she thought about her lover's conduct, she couldn't help but feel suspicious. Orphelia was, without a doubt, a beautiful young woman, but Tamazuki wanted to meet Orphelia because of her, so he wouldn't do anything weird, right?

'That's right! He just wants to help me!'

Julis deceived her mind and decided to believe in Tamazuki, thinking that he wouldn't do anything to Orphelia.

"Then, let's meet her."

"Okay." Julis nodded, wondering what he would do.

The two quickly went to Le Wolfe to meet Orphelia. No one stopped them as it wasn't Julis's first time coming to this place. Moreover, Irene and Priscilla were also students in this school, so it made it easier for her to come.

"So she didn't want to meet you?"

"Yeah."

Julis was gloomy when she thought about Orphelia's life in Le Wolfe, and because of that, she wanted to bring her to the Seidoukan.

Unlike the others, Orphelia was living in a separate place with only her living in that area. Still, before they arrived, they met Dirk.

"What the hell do you want to do, bastard?!" Dirk glared at Tamazuki. This bastard had ignored his call many times, so when he heard Tamazuki come to Le Wolfe, he met him directly.

"Fatty, you're still well." Tamazuki greeted Dirk with a smile.

While Julis wanted to look at Dirk with a hateful gaze as this president of Le Wolfe had interrupted her many times, she was surprised that Tamazuki seemed to know Dirk well.

"Answer me, Bastard!"

"Orphelia is Julis's childhood friend. She wants to meet her friend, and I just want to help her."

"...it's just that?"

"It's just that. You who know nothing of the feeling of loving someone won't understand it, though."

Julis blushed, but Dirk rolled his eyes.

However, Dirk really couldn't understand it, but he knew that Tamazuki didn't lie as he knew how Tamazuki would really help his women. For others, it might be hard, but for Tamazuki, it was easy.

Somehow, Dirk wanted to be born as a woman.

Though Tamazuki would look at Dirk in disgust if he knew.

"But no matter what, it is useless. You won't be able to get her since it is her wish to stay here."

Dirk didn't lie since the one who took the initiative to come to him was Orphelia instead of him.

"You are lying! Why should she come to you?!"

Dirk shuddered his shoulders and didn't bother to talk with this stupid woman.

"Okay, stop talking, Julis. Let me meet Orphellia first."

Julis held her temper and nodded.

The two then walked toward the place where Orphellia was living.

Dirk also followed, but neither said anything about it.

Still, as they got closer to where Orphellia was living, the pungent smell in the air became even more intense. The smell of rotting spread everywhere, but there, at the entrance of a lab-like building, a figure stood motionlessly as if waiting for them.

"Orphelia."

Julis called the name of this figure.
