Chapter 161 - Chapter 161: Side Story Teaser: I Want to Become Tokyo's Ace!

A cool breeze swept through.

In 1999, at the turn of the century, Tokyo was stirring with change.

"Why?"

On a night when a crescent moon cast its light over the dark sky.

A girl stood on the rooftop of a Tokyo building, her fists clenched and arms shaking.

She glared at the man before her, eyes blazing with hatred and resentment.

"Why did you take my sister and vanish?"

It was a flame of hatred, a desire for revenge.

The man answered her.

"Hey, don't look at me... Why blame me instead of her? I didn't take her..."

This man showed no sign of guilt at all...!

"Why do I have to debut in the sequel instead of the original? And why am I in my corrupted form? I almost died from the original's glare..."

"Um... I heard there's a male Avenger. When can I meet him?"

"Are you the young King of Heroes?"

"From my warrior days, when I battled Enkidu?"

"Are you the hero who killed our sister, Medusa?"

"Shall we kill you too?"

"Perseus? No thanks. More importantly, this pie is delicious! Can I pack some for my sisters?"

"Our Medea called someone a piglet? That won't do. We should remind Medea of her younger days..."

"Arthur? What did you say to Master? Want me to give you a spanking like when you were a kid?"

"There's an NFF Convenience Store in Tokyo too! So, let me in on this...!"

"Really... did you despise me that much? Well, I was a real piece of work back then... Sorry, Kuzuki. I've been meaning to apologize."

"Being summoned is one thing, but why have I been brought here?"

"Seriously, I was hoping for Shinjuku, but it's Tokyo? Well, Shinjuku is part of Tokyo, but how about taking me to Akihabara instead?"

"If your sister doesn't come home, just go look for her."

"And how would I know where she is!?"

"Just come with me. I'll cover all your meals, provide any leisure activities you desire, have legendary heroes tutor you, and put you up in luxury accommodations. As compensation, how about 10 billion yen? Or maybe a prestigious Lord's credential from the Clock Tower, courtesy of Olga or Reines."

"Are you trying to buy me off...?"

But the offer was too good to refuse.
