Chapter 23:

As the child's reputation spread throughout the Third District, word of their presence reached the ears of the ghouls residing there. Rumors and discussions circulated among the ghoul community, piquing their curiosity and interest.

Ghouls who had grown accustomed to the ruthless and chaotic nature of the Third District were intrigued by the mention of a young, powerful individual who could not be easily subdued or consumed.

The news of the child's survival and prowess circulated rapidly, sparking both awe and disbelief among the ghouls. Some dismissed it as mere hearsay, while others were enticed by the challenge of encountering this enigmatic figure.

"Really? A ten-year-old with exceptional strength? That's unheard of! I wonder if it's just a rumor or if there's some truth to it," one ghoul speculated, their eyes gleaming with a mixture of curiosity and excitement.

"I wouldn't mind testing their strength myself. It's been a while since we've had someone interesting to spar with," another ghoul chimed in, a mischievous grin playing on their face.

The presence of this child, who had unwittingly become a source of fascination and intrigue, stirred up a sense of restlessness within the Third District. The ghouls, always hungry for power and entertainment, were drawn to the challenge presented by this young enigma.

The news of the child's continued survival and their selective consumption of ghouls' Kakuhou further added to the intrigue. It was as if the child had become a force of nature, reshaping the power dynamics of the Third District.

Whispers and discussions filled the air as ghouls contemplated the implications of this new player in their territory. The child, oblivious to the attention they garnered, continued their solitary journey through the tumultuous streets of the Third District, unaware of the storm they had inadvertently stirred.

Gossip is everywhere. Ghouls who eat and have nothing to do will naturally chat with each other about the news of the three districts. No, the appearance of children has aroused some curiosity in Ghouls.

After all, a ten-year-old Ghoul can survive in the chaotic three districts for a week. This is difficult for the Ghoul who understands the cruelty of the three districts deeply.

"How is it possible? If he is only ten years old, maybe anyone can solve that little guy? What kind of boring guy made up a joke? It's not funny at all!"

"But I heard that it seems to be true! It is said that the kid came from the Ninth District and has killed several A-level guys in a row. The strength is unfathomable!"

"Are you sure you are not here to make fun? A ten-year-old kid can kill an A grade? Doesn't that mean that we guys are not as good as a ten-year-old kid?"

"That's right, if we are not as good as a kid, then we might as well die!" "This...I don't know which guy I heard from, maybe it's misinformation, haha, haha~"

Sure enouit'sits a joke, a child who has great strength.No can believee in this kind of thing. Even the person who said this at the beginning began to doubt the accuracy of his news, so he skipped the topic with an awkward smile.

At this time, the child in their mouth encountered an interesting thing. As we all know, Ghoul is also a kind of organism that reproduces of the same kind. Although there are also examples of Ghoul and human beings, it is extremely difficult for the two to have offspring.

Because of the difference in race, the chance of pregnancy is extremely low. Even if you are pregnant, the fetus may still die because of insufficient nutrition and due to that the stomach may eat the child.

Since the Ghoul is a kind of reproduction, then the Ghoul couples are naturally everywhere, and naturally, there are also many ghouls at the age of children.

It's just that after having children, those Ghoul couples usually choose to live in a relatively stable area. Therefore, in the chaotic areas of the 9th and 3rd districts, there are very few Ghoul couples.

But very few do not mean that there is no at all. There will be some who think they are good enough to protect their children, and they will live in their original place as usual.

At this time, the child met a Ghoul boy who was a few years older than himself! He was about fifteen years old, dressed very gorgeously, with short golden hair, and a pretty handsome face with a little arrogance.

The child, unperturbed by the condescending attitude of the Ghoul boy and his servant, calmly observed their interactions. They were accustomed to such attitudes and knew that their true strength would be the ultimate determinant in any encounter.

With a subtle smile, the child spoke in a calm and composed manner, their voice carrying a hint of indifference. "It seems you hold yourself in high regard, Master Blood Moon. But it's not appearances or backgrounds that define true strength. Perhaps you'll find that the world can be quite surprising."

The child's response caught the Ghoul boy off guard, as they had expected to be met with fear or submissiveness. The servant, too, was taken aback, momentarily at a loss for words.

Feeling a surge of indignation, the Ghoul boy's face contorted into a scowl. "You dare speak to me like that, you lowly brat? I'll show you the consequences of disrespecting your betters!"

Without hesitation, the Ghoul boy lunged forward, his Kagune materializing with a ferocious intent. However, much to his astonishment, the child effortlessly sidestepped his attack, their movements swift and graceful.

In a swift motion, the child's own Kagune emerged, slicing through the air and blocking the Ghoul boy's assault. The clash of Kagune resonated, and the child's eyes gleamed with determination.

The confrontation drew the attention of nearby ghouls, who watched in fascination as the child exhibited their extraordinary combat prowess. The once-contemptuous servant, realizing the child's true strength, now wore an expression of awe and admiration.

As the battle unfolded, the child's movements became increasingly fluid and precise, their strikes calculated and effective. With each blow, the Ghoul boy's arrogance crumbled, replaced by a growing sense of defeat.

Finally, the child landed a decisive blow, incapacitating the Ghoul boy and forcing him to the ground. Standing over him, the child extended a hand, offering an opportunity for reflection and growth.

"Strength isn't measured by birthright or appearance, but by one's actions and character. Learn from this defeat, Master Blood Moon, and perhaps you will find true strength in the humility of growth."

The defeated Ghoul boy, humbled by the encounter, hesitantly accepted the child's hand, acknowledging their wisdom and acknowledging that strength knows no boundaries.

The Scarlet Group is one of the two major Ghoul Groups in the three districts. It is a powerful group created by the SS-level Ghoul Blood Godfrey with many powerful men!

And Blood Moon is his only beloved son, he is usually too spoiled, and he will be guarded by a subordinate wherever he goes, for fear that it will hurt if he falls.

And in the third district, almost everyone knows the identity of the blood moon, so most people don't dare to offend the blood moon, otherwise it will provoke the old man behind him, but it will be more troublesome.

But the problem is, the child doesn't know the identity of the blood moon! Even if he knew it, I'm afraid he wouldn't care about it, right? After all, judging from his current intelligence, it is difficult for him to understand the complex relationships within these groups, right?

"Still It isn't something that I can just ignore to be defiled this way!" as he prepared to retaliate against the Child.

"It's my duty to assist you in any way but I'm quite sorry about this Child as a two against one isn't very fair however this is life"

The Incident that would spark the beginning of the problem would start the revolution and that which would begin with the death of Kiziki Blood Moon and his butler.

As Kiziki Blood Moon prepared to retaliate against the child, a sudden turn of events unfolded.
