Fulfill the bet?
Staring blankly at Lin Que, Kanroji Mitsuri, whose mind had been blank for a few seconds, finally came to her senses.
Because she was too confident at the beginning, Kanroji Mitsuri had never considered the possibility of defeat.
Now that she had lost the arm wrestling match, she naturally couldn't shamelessly go back on her word; she could only be Lin Que's... pet?
"Huh! Why a pet?!"
Kanroji Mitsuri finally noticed something was wrong.
"The difference in status is too great!"
Lin Que spread his hands: "Winner takes all, loser eats dust."
"Even you should understand such a simple principle, Kanroji."
"But…"
Kanroji Mitsuri's expression became conflicted: "No matter how I think about it, this is still too strange."
"So?"
Lin Que raised an eyebrow: "Are you going to back out?"
"No, backing out is bad, but…"
Kanroji Mitsuri was still very conflicted: "I wish I hadn't made that bet with Lin Que; now I don't know what to do."
"Relax, my pet's treatment is quite good."
"Food and lodging are provided, ensuring you live better than most people."
Lin Que patted her head with a smile: "And when we refer to you externally, your identity will simply be my subordinate."
"How about it? Am I not considerate enough?"
Kanroji Mitsuri hesitated to speak: "Then, my family…"
She went out on a blind date and returned as someone's subordinate.
This was truly too surreal.
Lin Que shook his finger, pointing at her: "Just tell your family that the blind date was successful."
"Anyway, I'm not usually here, so you only need to come back occasionally."
"Alright."
Kanroji Mitsuri sighed, no longer insisting.
After all, a loss was a loss, and Lin Que had made it very clear beforehand.
Confidently accepting a bet without hearing the terms clearly was undoubtedly her own problem.
"Speaking of which, since I'm called your subordinate externally, Lin Que, are you the leader of some organization?"
"It's too troublesome to explain, just see for yourself."
Lin Que poked her forehead with his finger, transmitting some basic knowledge.
This was a new application he developed after studying Observation Haki in his daily life.
Based on the effects of emotional resonance and emotional transmission, it deeply interfered with the other party's mind, thereby extending into a method of transmitting memories.
Although it could only be used on those weaker than him or those who were unprepared, it was a very convenient extended application.
Just like now, he didn't have to explain every question, saving Lin Que a lot of time.
"Otherworld… Hakoniwa… Playground of the Gods and Buddhas…"
A flood of unfamiliar memories suddenly appeared in her mind, and Kanroji Mitsuri somewhat dazedly began to sort them out.
After a while, she opened her eyes in surprise, looking at Lin Que in disbelief.
"Lin Que, you're a god from another world!"
"Not something that comes with debuffs."
Lin Que denied: "If you must say, I am a Pure-blooded Dragon."
Of course, this answer also had to be questioned.
As one of Hakoniwa's three strongest species, Pure-blooded Dragons theoretically had innate abilities.
And after identifying this identity, Lin Que privately spent a lot of time exploring.
The final conclusion was that the only suspected effect brought by being a Pure-blooded Dragon was high resistance to various negative effects.
He was basically unaffected by mental attacks like charm, or debuffs like petrification, slowdown, and poisoning.
However, this could also be explained by his strong physical constitution.
Therefore, Lin Que had always suspected that the Laplace's Paper, which claimed to be omniscient, had made a mistake in its appraisal.
But White Yasha had always insisted that it was impossible for it to be wrong.
Since the other party was so confident, Lin Que temporarily accepted this identity.
After all, claiming to be a Pure-blooded Dragon externally versus claiming to be a human externally yielded vastly different responses.
Just like now, Kanroji Mitsuri showed a look of sudden realization, as if saying, 'I understand now.'
"Lin Que is a dragon… No wonder you're so strong, I was no match at all."
"Actually, your strength is too small."
Lin Que chose to point out the truth: "Your strength is only considered great relative to this world."
"Outside of this world, there are many people stronger than you."
"Of course, your physique is very special."
"Follow me, and in the future, you'll still be stronger than most people."
"I will work hard to become stronger!"
Kanroji Mitsuri perked up: "By the way, what's my job?"
"Currently, it's taking care of children, cleaning, and procuring food."
Kanroji Mitsuri: "???"
"Well~ those are daily tasks. Besides these, you also need to diligently cultivate and become stronger, then work part-time as a guard."
Ignoring Kanroji Mitsuri, who was once again beaming with joy, Lin Que raised his hand and gestured behind her.
"Enemies like these, who actively seek trouble and are of average strength, will be your responsibility to handle from now on."
"Enemies?"
Kanroji Mitsuri instinctively turned around.
The next second, two bizarre-looking presences, clearly not human, entered her sight.
Bang—!
The chair toppled over onto the floor, and Kanroji Mitsuri nervously rushed to Lin Que's side.
"What… what is this?!"
"Demons, a type of monster in your world."
Lin Que stood up, leisurely adjusted his collar, and then looked forward.
"Upper Rank Four Hantengu, Upper Rank Five Gyokko."
"You two are quite efficient, showing up as soon as it gets dark."
"You knew we were coming?"
Hantengu looked at Lin Que in surprise and uncertainty.
The other party was too relaxed, with a look of complete expectation.
If it were anyone else, he might think they were bluffing.
But this was a village that Muzan-sama had specifically ordered to be killed, so it naturally wouldn't be simple.
"Of course I knew you were coming."
Lin Que's face showed a playful expression: "After all, information about my whereabouts was actively leaked."
"Playing tricks!"
Gyokko suddenly shot out of his pot, transforming into an ugly monster with webbed hands and a snake-like lower body.
Wielding his sharp claws, he immediately burst forth with full power, charging towards Lin Que.
"Your head will be taken by me, Gyokko…"
Boom—!
Before he could finish speaking, Gyokko's body suddenly exploded, disappearing from the spot.
"Group member 'Sea King' killed Upper Rank Five 'Gyokko', world prestige increased by 50 points, rewarded with 2000 group points."
"Seriously, if you're going to talk, talk properly. What if you break someone else's restaurant by being so frantic?"
Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Que looked at Hantengu not far away.
"Don't be nervous. If you don't act rashly like him, I'll give you time to say your last words."
Hantengu: "…"
Is it still not too late to run away now?
