Although it might ruin the mood, she still wanted to ask, "Dude, who are you?"

He didn't say anything, but continued fighting with the woman. The special effects of the fight were terrifying; an ordinary person would be instantly killed by a single blow. Luckily, she was saved, otherwise she would have really been killed.

They fought for a while, but neither of them won. However, the commotion attracted the attention of nearby patrol personnel. Hearing the approaching footsteps, the woman disappeared unwillingly.

She thought the man would disappear as well, but instead he turned to look at her.

Jiang Nai: "..."

They probably don't know each other, so why isn't he chasing after that woman and instead staring at her?

"Uncle, you..."

"You're being watched."

The man in front of her was about forty years old, with a serious face and no emotion in his eyes. He was simply stating a fact, but this frightened Jiang Nai quite a bit.

"I'm being targeted by that monster???"

No, why?

"She loves to eat, no matter what it is, once she's targeted, she can't escape."

Jiang Nai was truly baffled. She wasn't tasty, and she didn't have much meat on her body, so why would anyone want to eat her?

This world is too dangerous; it's better to find several powerful backers.

"Forehead……"

"I need you as bait."

"...?"

"I will kill her, but I need your help."

The man showed no sincerity in asking for a favor; he merely gave orders, or rather, notifications, which would anger anyone.

However, Jiang Nai saw his extraordinary combat power and hesitated a bit. Having such a powerful protector seemed like a good idea.

But she has Mebius now, he should be able to protect her, right?

"You don't need to hesitate..."

He wanted to say something more, but the patrolmen had already arrived, and they were all acquaintances.

Mebius was stunned when he saw the two of them together, while Aihara Ryu reacted even more strongly because he saw the man.

"Captain Serizawa!"

"you consider it."

He didn't look at them, and then he left.

Without much thought, Aihara Ryu followed him out, leaving only Ena and Mebius behind.

"Xiao Nai, what are you doing here, and with him..."

Jiang Nai seemed to have found her pillar of support, and threw herself into his arms, starting to whine, "Future, I just met a woman. She doesn't seem to be an ordinary person. She tried to eat me, but luckily that man appeared and saved me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see you again!"

Woman, eat her...

Could it be...?!

"What? You've been targeted by Bogaru???" Mebius became nervous upon hearing this, but reassuring Jiang Nai was the priority. "Don't be afraid, I'll protect you. You can stay home during this time... well, for safety's sake, I'll apply to stay by your side under the pretext of protecting the person in question. With me here, Nai, don't worry."

"Okay, I believe you, but you have to sleep with me tonight."

"it is good."

Mebius agreed without hesitation. He was still terrified; if no one rescued her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Jiang Nai felt Mebius's body trembling, so she reached out and patted him on the back: "I thought I would hesitate in the future."

"I can't help it, I'm so scared right now, I wish I could stay by your side all day long, shrink you down and put you in my pocket."

"Alright, alright, I'm the one who should be comforted..."

"Xiao Nai..."

"Alright. Let's get down to business. Do you know that man?"

Mebius didn't know how to explain it to her, so he could only say, "I'm not quite sure either..."

"Then tell me what that thing is called... what was it again?"

"Bogaru is a ferocious monster that likes to devour all living things. If Xiao Nai gets targeted, it could really be troublesome..."

Mebius was deeply worried; he was determined to protect Nai even at the cost of his life.

Jiang Nai asked hesitantly, "Will Mebius... defeat her?"

"...Yes, and I must."

Even if it means mutual destruction, we absolutely cannot fail.

Jiang Nai wanted to say that the man wanted her to be used as bait, but seeing how nervous he was, she decided not to say it, so as not to cause him any more trouble.

Moreover, she was considering whether or not to go along with the man's suggestion.

If even Mebius can't defeat her, then it's time to find another backer; perhaps the two of them could join forces...

Thankfully, the streamer was rescued; I was absolutely terrified.

[You guys said that man is Hikari, the one with the blue body from before. I admit the suit looks good, but this human form is a bit too big.]

No, this is someone else's body that Hikari took over. You can look it up yourselves and you'll find out.

[However, Hikari is quite large, more than twice the size of Mebius, and we've never seen him in his human form, so he might really be in his thirties or forties.]

I reject this conjecture.

[Even the streamers are being targeted by Bogaru, and you guys are still discussing whether Hikari is old or not? ???]

[Yeah, if we're going to discuss this, we should do it secretly. I created a group chat, girls first.]

【…】

When Jiang Nai saw the comments, all his tension vanished, leaving him speechless.

If she had a way to get back, she would have killed them all!!!
