"Sorry, blade weapons are ineffective against me."
It wasn't just blades. Any attack or tool that qualified as a "weapon" was effectively nullified. Hiro didn't need to explain the full extent of this trump card to Arima Kishou, a stranger.
Catching the blade with his bare hand wasn't just for show. His school uniform couldn't withstand it.
Breaking through "Leo's Solar Authority" and damaging the main body? That would require at least a two-digit level of the Box Garden world-and even then, it was only possible.
Without prior experience or mention in the original work, even Hiro couldn't know the true outcome.
Ding!
"Sixth-Tier luck seizure complete. Congratulations to the host for obtaining Authority: War God of the East - White Horse."
"Note: Due to the host possessing Leo's Solar Authority, the power of this Authority is greatly enhanced, with all usage restrictions removed."
The white horse that carries the sun... paired with Leo's Solar Authority, seemed a perfect match.
Hiro suppressed his excitement. This was his first large-scale destructive ability, not only of the highest Tier but significantly enhanced.
Arima Kishou, having recovered from shock, shifted his gaze from Hiro's right hand and gave a slight bow.
"Thank you for your explanation."
He took Hiro's "blade immunity" for Yatsufusa's ability-but Hiro didn't intend to clarify further. Joining the CCG as "off-the-books personnel" and freeloading off the government was enough. Everything else was irrelevant.
"The fight is over. In your opinion, what is my strength?" Hiro asked.
"Undoubtedly Special Class Investigator level."
After answering, Arima put away his long sword, produced a small white box from his waist bag, and handed it to Hiro with both hands.
"This is your future communication device, sir. All your personal information has been entered by CCG headquarters. Turn it on to access news, intelligence, missions, remuneration, and permissions. Please take care of it."
Hiro felt a bit puzzled. Was Arima's humility because he was awed by Hiro's strength, or due to specific orders from his superiors?
Arima Kishou, a puppet of the Washuu clan, had single-handedly cut off both of Yoshimura's arms to achieve First-Class Investigator rank. A significant position within the CCG.
Logically... I'm now a Special Class Investigator. His reaction is probably... normal.
"Anything else? If not, I'll be leaving." Hiro put the box into his backpack.
"Please proceed at your convenience, sir. The CCG will handle everything else. Relevant matters will be communicated through the device. You only need to check it when necessary."
So basically... I don't need to worry. The CCG handles everything. How considerate.
Hiro nodded, satisfied, then asked one last thing:
"My identity shouldn't be leaked, right? If classmates or family find out I joined the CCG, it could be a lot of trouble."
"Of course not, sir. No need to worry."
With that assurance, Hiro passed Arima and walked toward his house.
Now that he had joined the CCG, he wondered what the manager and staff at Anteiku would think when he next appeared in an investigator uniform.
Will they attack directly? Probably not.
But Koma Enji and Irimi Kaya... they haven't spent years as waiters yet. There's a chance of them attacking.
In short-CCG mole +1.
This thought made Hiro smirk inwardly.
...
Beep~ Beep~ Beep~
"This is Arima."
Carrying a black cloth bag, Arima walked toward the station, speaking respectfully into the phone.
"How did the mission go?" The voice on the other end was the same slightly male tone as before.
"Yes. The mission is complete. Hiro has agreed to join the CCG."
"His rank?"
Arima paused, recalling the overwhelming power he had just faced.
"Undoubtedly Special Class Investigator level, and he possesses the ability to nullify blade-based attacks. No one in the current CCG is his match. Even other Special Class Investigators would likely be killed instantly, as I was..."
A brief silence on the line, then a tone carrying interest:
"Tell me about the fight."
"The opponent grasped Yukimura's blade at a speed I couldn't react to and then placed the katana against the left side of my neck."
"One move?"
"Yes."
"I understand. Thank you for your hard work."
Beep~
An ability user who can instantly kill Arima... interesting.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
At CCG headquarters, Washuu Tsuneyoshi scanned Hiro's personal information.
Tch!
A few glances were enough to make the CCG Chief click his tongue in displeasure.
"Saitama Prefecture... Gremory's territory. Troublesome."
"Since contact is difficult, we can focus efforts elsewhere to win them over," he muttered.
