Chapter 148 The Strongest 4

“Hahaha…! Well done, human.”

The Oni was still sitting down as he laughed.

He brushed the dust off of his body and slowly stood up.

“Follow me.”

He said and started to walk away. Maple followed him.

They stepped on the magic circled that he created, and they were teleported back to the room on the 4th floor.

“Now, human. You can take my place, as was promised. That is why you came, is it not?”

The Oni’s hands began to glow, and two vermillion cups appeared.

Then he handed one of them to Maple, and with a large bottle that he had also conjured, he poured a liquid into both of their cups.

“I never thought that a human would follow me. Humans cannot drink the sake of Yokai. You cannot drink sake…but, this will do just as well.”

“Uh, sure!”

Maple and the Oni drained their cups. And then Maple received a notice that she had gained a new skill.

‘You have received the skill, ‘Pandemonium I.’

She listened to him talk for a little after that and nodded until he finished.

“Don’t you have someplace to go? But, do come again. You are very welcome. Until the time comes for me to die…I will fight you anytime you want.”

“Uh, I don’t want to fight you anymore. But, yes. I will visit!”

Maple waved a hand at him and left the room. Then she closed the paper doors behind her and stretched.

“Phew. That hurt…uhh, I’m so tired! I don’t want to fight again for a long time…”

Maple had taken a lot of damage in this fight, and while she had not been defeated, she was still exhausted.

She intended to avoid not only difficult fights but fights in general for a while.

“Oh, right. I need to check the skill. Uh…”

‘Pandemonium I’

Call the Red Oni and Blue Oni for 1 minute.

The Oni’s status depends on your skill level.

During this time, all of the user’s skills will be ‘Sealed.’ Your equipment’s skills will not be sealed.

Maple checked both Oni’s status and realized something.

“Uh, ah, there is a 1 there. How do I raise it…”

Maple had one idea on how to do it.

The Oni had said ‘I will fight you anytime you want.’

Then there could be only one way to raise the skill level.

Once more, twice more. She would have to beat him again.

That is what she thought.

“Ohhh…if that’s the case…forget it…”

She was still in a daze, and the words that spilled out expressed her true feelings. She did not want to fight that Oni ever again.

Maple left the building and went out into the town and stretched once again.

Perhaps her mind was able to refresh from this because she suddenly remembered one thing.

“…I’m still not able to go to the next layer!?”

Maple’s high-pitched scream echoed throughout the town of the 4th layer.
