Izumaru's travel notes

"Takamiya?"

Hearing this name, Kiraraze Yu was startled. Takamiya? Is that Takamiya?

"It seems you know who I'm talking about."

The shadow placed his fingers on the computer, and nerve fibers spread out from his fingertips. The next moment, the computer page flashed quickly, and a file appeared in front of the shadow.

"Chonggong Yu, that's him."

Seeing the familiar face, the black shadow hummed softly, and at the same time, continued to collect information about this world through the Internet.

"who are you?"

Kirarazawa Yu touched the Deweyt pistol hidden under the table, but a sudden chill behind his neck made him stop his unrealistic thoughts.

"I?"

The black shadow snorted coldly, and a thin layer of frost instantly condensed on the table in the room. The jellyfish-like creatures swimming in the container nearby had already huddled together, and an emotion of fear continued to spread.

The darkness on his face gradually faded away, and Kirarazawa Yu's eyes widened.

"you…"

Looking at the face in front of him that was exactly the same as Takamiya Yu, Kiraraze Yu was a little bit unbelievable.

"I am Chonggong, but I am not Chonggong. Strictly speaking, I am his shadow, a part of him."

"So your purpose is..."

Shadow snorted, "Don't overthink it kid, I'm here to find him, but I'm here to kill him."

Kiraraze Yu frowned: "You want to replace him?"

"Don't speak so harshly." Shadow frowned.

"He is Chong Gong Yu, I am also Chong Gong Yu, we are both Chong Gong Yu, how can there be a replacement? It's just..."

Shadow suddenly clenched his right fist: "I hate the feeling of being stepped on by others! Why should I be the only one being stepped on? Why should he be the only one who can live a normal life in this world!"

A surge of resentment burst out from his heart.

"So you're looking for me..."

"I can't find him on this planet. I need you to help me find this guy. As for the reward..."

The computer screen flashed again, and the appearance of a file made Kiraraze Yu nervous, especially after seeing the photo of the young man.

After a long silence, Kiraraze Yu spoke:

"I promise you."

...

"Is it a shadow?"

In the other dimension, Faust, who was receiving treatment from the Dark Truster, looked at Takamiya in confusion.

"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, he is my shadow, an existence separated from my body. A shadow in every sense of the word."

Chonggong put down the Dark Truster in his hand, with a trace of worry between his eyebrows. A small sun lit up above his head, and Faust realized that under the shining light, his master actually had no shadow.

"If it's your shadow, why are you attacking me? Aren't our goals the same?" Faust asked puzzledly.

"It's highly likely...he betrayed me, and he doesn't know anything. I asked him to carry out a mission in another universe before, and left him the ticket with my coordinates. So that he could find me more easily after completing the mission. It seems that he completed the mission, but I didn't expect...he seems to have betrayed me."

"Will a shadow betray its master?"

Takamiya shook his head: "I don't know what happened to him or what he went through, but one thing is certain, dealing with this guy has a higher priority than dealing with Nexus."

"why?"

"It has one-third of my strength."

"Ah?" Faust was shocked. Only one third of his strength...

Takamiya stabbed Faust's color timer and pulled the Heart of Absolut out of his body.

"Sir...you..."

Black light gushed out of his chest. Faust didn't understand why... Was it because he did something wrong...

But before he could figure it out, a column was thrust into his colored timer, replacing the Heart of Absolut.

In an instant, the power in the body surged wildly, Dark Faust was surrounded by darkness, and severe pain swept through his body.

"Although I don't really want to use it, but in extraordinary times, we have to use extraordinary measures."

Looking at Faust screaming in the dark vortex, Chonggong's eyes were cold.

"Ahhh!"

In the vortex of darkness, the body of Dark Faust instantly collapsed, and then reassembled under the power of darkness, giving birth to new life.

"Be reborn, Dark Mephisto."

As he finished speaking, the dark vortex gradually shrank, and finally, the tremendous power was absorbed into the black colored timer, and the appearance of Dark Faust completely disappeared, turning into the appearance of Mephistopheles.

"Sir...I...I am..."

"The power of this core is no longer enough for you to fight against this new enemy, so I replaced it with a new one. From today on, you are no longer a demon: Dark Faust, but a demon: Dark Mephisto."

Looking at his new body, Faust…Mephistopheles knelt on one knee.

"Thank you for your cultivation, sir. I am willing to sacrifice my life for you, even if it means death."

"No need. Being alive is more valuable than being dead. I won't let you die, and I won't necessarily punish you if you fail, but you can't let me down too much either."

"Yes, then, sir, what is our next plan? Is it centered around your shadow?"

Chong Gong was silent for a moment. "For the time being... let's focus on Nexus. I can't find him now. He should be able to find a way to supplement the missing information during this period of time... Is Su here?"

"I always."

"I'll give you something. Help me hack into TLT's database. I need to confirm the location of something."

Looking at a small crab-like thing that suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand, Su threw it out of the window into the container that was about to be sent to the Night Raid Team.

"That guy...if he is really like me, then after he sees Himeya Jun, he should do the same thing as me, right?"

After handing over to Su, Chonggong murmured:

"Garubelos."

"Roar!"

"Northfield."

"Roar!"

"Mephisto."

"exist."

Chonggong swipes his wrist, and a three-dimensional bird's-eye view of a tourist town appears before his eyes.

"This is a tourist town with 5,000 permanent residents and tens of thousands of transients. Garuberos, Nosfer, the two of you should not hide, but go straight here. Mephisto is hiding on the side. If you meet Himeya Jun, don't let him open the Meta Domain or the Dark Domain."

"Yes. But sir, if we encounter your shadow..."

After Mephisto finished speaking, Chonggong shook his head and a small black sword appeared in his hand.

"That guy may not come. If he does, I will deal with him and take back Hyperjetton. Let's do it."

I glanced at the time. Hmm, it’s eight o’clock in the evening, just the right time.

"Yes."

Fifteen kilometers outside the hot spring town, two terrifying alien beasts appeared in the distortion of space and headed straight for the town.
