He actually defeated the earth spider head-on and exhausted all the power of the big monster...
"You really are a monster."
The one who spoke out what Kuroda Fang was thinking was Dalian Temple Suzuka, who had the courage to come here at this time. She looked at Li Nian with a strange look and stood very far away.
"Master Dalianji should learn from me. Once you get used to it, it won't matter." Jianshan, who took a step behind, didn't care - or maybe she was numb to it. She went straight to the point: "So, after you beat the other guy down, what are you going to do with this guy?"
Chapter 305: Post-event handling
How to deal with it?
Li Nian didn't answer and looked at Nura Rikuo.
Before Nura Rikuo could say anything, Kurodabo said sinisterly, "Mr. Li, could you please hand this beast over to my Nura Group for disposal..."
He still remembered what Tsuchigumo had done, how dare he hurt their young master? Kurodabo would never forget this matter even if he died. He and Nura Rikuo had come here ready to fight to the death, determined to kill this big monster even if it meant risking their lives... Of course, he had nothing to do now. Tsuchigumo was beaten down by Li Nian. Although it was a pity that he couldn't do it himself, it didn't matter. Anyway, this was undoubtedly a great opportunity to take revenge.
Everyone could hear the anger and murderous intent in Kurodabo's tone. He must have wanted to drag Tsuchigumo back and give a good treat to this lunatic who dared to hurt the young master. Even cutting this rough man into pieces and eating them raw would probably not be enough to relieve his hatred.
So of course now everyone is scrambling to grab the dead spider lying on the ground and deal with it.
Li Nian smiled noncommittally. This was indeed Nura Rikuo's decision, and it was something Li Nian had unilaterally agreed with him beforehand. This was the original intention of calling Nura Rikuo over, so Li Nian turned to the young master and pointed his thumb at the dead Tsuchigumo lying on the ground: "As agreed, after I beat this brother half to death, it's your turn to take over. I'll repay you for the favor."
Nura Rikuo rolled his eyes and said, "Don't do that. It will be troublesome if you leave it to us. You also saw the look on my Kurodabo's face. If I really take him back, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect him."
Kuroda Fang opened his mouth, and heard that the young master still did not seem to have the intention of killing Tsuchigumo despite such a good opportunity. He suddenly became anxious, but thinking that he had interrupted many times before and had been organized by the young master several times, he shut up.
Li Nian smiled nonchalantly and said, "If you can't protect him, then you can't protect him. Wouldn't it be better to kill him?"
Kuroda Fang nodded hurriedly, thinking that Lord Li was absolutely right and that the young master should consider this option more.
"If you really think so, why don't you do it yourself?"
"Isn't this a great opportunity for you, Lord Nura? I'll let you behead him and appease the public anger."
"Come on, Lord Li, aren't you sure I won't kill him and that's why you're throwing this trouble at me?"
"Tsk tsk, well, I can't hide it from Nura-sama's sharp eyes."
"Can you handle the things you knocked down yourself?"
"What can I do with this? I live in a shabby dormitory, where can I put this big, strong man? I know very well that he will have to lie down for at least ten days or half a month, right? I can't find a place to put him."
As for whether the earth spider, which was so badly injured, could recover naturally, no one present had any doubts.
These two people could talk about the life and death of the earth spider nonchalantly, and each of them was shirking the responsibility of dealing with the follow-up matters. They were not testing anything, but they really felt that the follow-up handling was too troublesome and did not want to bring a creature like the earth spider back to their own nest.
Dalian Temple and the others listened carefully, pondering in their minds. In short, they could tell that the young master of the Nura clan and Li Nian, the real boss who defeated the big monster, had no intention of killing the Tsuchigumo.
Isayama suddenly asked, "Are you sure?"
Li Nian's expression became serious, and he answered straightforwardly: "Don't kill him for now, there's no need."
It was true that he just said a few nonsense to Nura Rikuo. Li Nian had no intention of killing Tsuchigumo now.
He came with murderous intent, and he attacked with all his might, aiming to beat Earth Spider to death. However, now that he had really knocked the enemy down, Li Nian no longer had that idea. It was not that they really felt a sense of sympathy for Earth Spider to the point of thinking that he was a good guy just because of this fight - only a fool would think that the notorious monster from hundreds of years ago would be a good person.
It's not wrong to have a feeling of mutual admiration. This guy has good character, which is one of the reasons why Li Nian looks at him differently and decides not to kill him, but more importantly, it's because he has now defeated the Earth Spider.
This is enough.
After getting Li Nian's reply, Jianshan had no intention of asking more questions. He thought, you can do whatever you want to do with whoever you want to defeat. If there are no extra things for me to deal with, I'd be happy to have some free time so I can go back and catch up on some sleep.
Of course, she had to write a report and submit it to the director before going to bed. It was a big deal that a big monster like Tsuchigumo was defeated by Li Nian - so such a big deal should be handled by the big shots above and Li Mengxin, and a low-level civil servant like her, Isayama, would not have to worry about it.
Yes, if there is one thing that Jianshan learned from this whole thing, it was that she suddenly realized that this is how you should get along with Li Nian, just do your job calmly and that's all. Being startled all the time is stupid and bad for your heart.
Dalian Temple couldn't help but ask directly, "After all the hard work of defeating the Earth Spider, you're just going to let him go back alive? That's not a good idea."
"Tsuchigumo isn't the type to refuse communication. I knocked him down once, and it's easier to communicate with him after that."
"...This is the way your fighting people think."
"So he should listen to my warning. I'll talk to him when Tsuchigumo wakes up. I also have something I want to ask him."
This kind of follow-up treatment is nothing more than believing in the character of the monster and wishful thinking that such a vicious person will restrain his vicious nature.
...But thinking of the rough but upright fighting style of Tsuchigumo she had seen during the previous battle with Li Nian, Daliansi was unable to utter any words of doubt at the moment, so she silently agreed with Li Nian's approach.
"That's it. Remember to call me when Tsuchigumo wakes up." Li Nian said to Nura Rikuo.
"Ah? Does this mean that you're leaving it to our Nura Group to deal with?"
"You're not that reluctant, are you? After all, he's from Yuyuko's side. I have something to ask about my own affairs. You, the young master of the Nura clan, can't you get more information from him?"
"That seems to make sense, but do you think Tsuchigumo would care about all the trivial things happening around the fox? What can you find out?"
"That depends on what Lord Nura does."
Li Nian snapped his fingers and withdrew the sealing barrier.
Everyone's eyes went dark, and when they regained their vision, they no longer saw the dilapidated city scene. Everything was back to normal and full of color.
The huge potholes, collapsed buildings, scattered rubble and clouds of dust are no longer there.
The streetscape has been restored to its original state, with tall buildings, wide streets and overpasses.
Only then did everyone realize that the place where they were standing was next to the bench where they had met Tsuchigumo before.
All the phenomena that could prove that the battle had taken place disappeared, as if we had returned to the time when we had just met Tsuchigumo some time ago, as if nothing had ever happened.
Only the great monster Tsuchigumo had turned into a loser lying on the ground, his body torn and unconscious, presented in front of everyone as the result of the battle, reminding them that everything was real.
"That's it. I'll leave it to you guys to deal with from now on. I'm going to go back and rest first."
Li Nian waved her hand and turned away.
He picked up the can of beer that Tsuchigumo had left on the chair and opened it.
Although his whole body was still in pain, Li Nian felt very relaxed after the fight. He felt like having a drink of wine, which was a rare feeling.
Everyone watched Li Nian walk away leisurely while drinking his wine until he disappeared around the corner of the street.
It was like a heavy pressure had disappeared.
So everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Then they looked at each other.
Dairenji laughed out loud, mocking Nura Rikuo.
"Seeing you chatting and laughing with that monster, I thought the young master of the Nura clan really didn't care about anything. It turns out you were scared too."
"I can't remain calm after watching that kind of battle." Nura Rikuo nodded calmly: "I'm not scared, but I'm a little breathless."
Yes, everyone felt suffocated unconsciously because of Li Nian's presence.
This is an unconscious instinct.
It didn't matter whether Li Nian showed hostility or not, it was just that this guy seemed to be so excited by the Tsuchigumo that he didn't even realize that his aura had not been completely restrained from its combat readiness state. It was unstable and still agitated.
This alone is enough to stimulate the people around you.
Especially after witnessing such a battle with one's own eyes, no one can help but feel pressure in this situation.
This pressure will naturally relieve after the person concerned leaves.
Nura Rikuo retorted, "Prodigy-sama, why don't you consider toning down your arrogant attitude in front of that monster you're talking about from today onwards?"
"… Just this once, I will accept your advice wholeheartedly."
Then everyone tacitly stopped talking about Li Nian and focused their attention on Tsuchigumo.
Daliansi's face was full of disgust.
"So in the end, how should we deal with this?"
"Why don't you take the child prodigy back with you?"
"No, who knows if this guy will kill everyone he sees the moment he wakes up. Why should I bring such a time bomb home? You might as well ask the exorcist Isayama over there whether the Onmyoji Bureau will accept this hot potato."
"..."
Isayama shook his head like a rattle after being glared at by Nura Rikuo: "Don't look at me, I'm just a low-level civil servant and I can't handle this situation. If you want to send it to the Onmyoji Bureau, please ask my boss to handle it."
As soon as Li Nian left, everyone started to pass the blame.
"Then I'll have to take it back..." Nura Rikuo sighed.
Kuroda Fang's eyes lit up: "Young Master..."
"Don't mention it again. Don't do anything dirty. Come, Kurodafang, help me carry the person."
===========
Li Nian returned to his room in Sakurasou and lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
I was so exhausted that the feeling of fatigue permeated every cell in my body.
When I woke up again, along with all my body functions returning to normal, I felt extremely hungry.
But by now Li Nian has of course already gotten used to this phenomenon and can bear it.
I glanced at the clock and it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
He walked out of the room quietly and went to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat in the refrigerator.
When I passed by the entrance, the door happened to open.
Li Nian looked up weakly and greeted him.
"It's Kanda, welcome back."
Being hungry, he didn't want to say hello, so he just greeted them casually without even stopping to go to the kitchen.
But after taking two steps, Li Nian suddenly felt something was wrong, so he stepped back and looked at Kanda who was standing at the entrance.
Kanda was still standing there blankly, the setting sun shining on him, stretching his shadow very long.
Although it was a holiday, Kanda was rarely seen dressed in a suit and tie. This reminded Li Nian that the final review day for the game plan he had submitted before seemed to be during these few days.
"You are dressed in a suit and tie. What? Is the inspection day today?"
"……Yes."
"…So, you lost?"
Li Nian asked this question with almost certainty because the young man he saw looked listless, with dull eyes and a shrunk neck. It was obvious that he had suffered a blow, and he gave off the aura of a loser. How could he look like this after passing the selection?
"..."
Now he couldn't even make a sound, and Kanda nodded silently.
That's indeed the case.
Li Nian was about to say something,
I heard the sound of footsteps from behind me. I turned around and saw Shiina walking down from upstairs.
"Korata, welcome back... and Li Nian?"
It seemed that he ran down after hearing the noise of someone returning from the entrance. He probably came here specially to greet Kanda. Shiina knew that today was his project review day, so he was probably concerned about the result.
At that moment, a false smile appeared on Kanda's face.
Li Nian narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this scene.
Then, before Shiina asked, Kanda asked first with a smile on his face.
"Mashiro, when will your magazine be released?"
“…It was released in two days.”
Kanda's mouth trembled when he heard this, and his smile almost collapsed, but he managed to maintain it.
"... Really? Congratulations. I guess you'll be even busier from now on."
"Yes."
"Then go back and continue painting. You shouldn't waste your time on someone like me."
