Chapter 11:

"Swish!"

In a clearing on the periphery of the Ninth District, Deken tried his best to dodge the storm-like offensive from the front, and the cold sweat couldn't stop falling from his forehead.

Deken never thought that there would be such a ghoul child who could suppress himself as an A-grade ghoul!

Although the strength of A-level is weak in the world of Ghoul, it is also an insurmountable and powerful existence compared to underage children!

But now, Deken is being watched by a child. The spooky speed and non-stop offensive make Deken have to deal with it with all his strength. He doesn't dare to be distracted, and the small look at the beginning has long been lost.

Where did it go?

"Boom boom!"

Deken has three sturdy-looking scales, but in front of the child's two slender scales, he appears dull and unable to keep up with the child's offensive, let alone organize an effective counterattack!

Deken's heart is miserable. It's not that he doesn't want to fight back, but that he can't keep up with the child's speed at all!

The two seemingly slender scales of the child not only have lightning speed, but are also much harder than their appearance, and they can't be crushed by the hardness of Deken's scales!

Suddenly, Deken, who had been staring at the child, seemed to have discovered something. His eyes flashed. While controlling his Kagune behind him to block the child's offence, he stretched out his big hand to the child's neck!

"Hey, I can't think of it! The child is a child after all, and the physical disadvantage is obvious! My hand can easily attack you, and you can't do anything except avoid it!"

Deken couldn't help but think of it triumphantly.

Indeed, Deken is tall, and the length of a right arm is as long as half the height of a child. Deken's hand can easily touch the child, but the child cannot do that!

Almost, Almost!

"Let me crush your head boy!"

Deken roared in excitement, opened his palm and slammed the child's head.

However, the child did not have the panic that Deken imagined on his face, nor did he retreat and evade as he imagined.

However, is the child really self-inflicted?

Deken didn't have time to think about it. When his big hand was about to hold the child's head, he was horrified to find that the child was missing before his eyes!

where is it? where is it?!

Deken is a little flustered!

"Puff!"

The severe pain spread from Deken's heart to his whole body, lowered his head, Deken and the child met his eyes, he saw, saw the indifferent eyes under the ghostly mask.

For some reason, at that moment, Decken's mind was vaguely filled with memories of the past.

"Hey, Dekken, I heard from those guys that a very evil kid appeared in our nine districts recently, but he was only nine years old, but he had hunted down several cany species. Those guys who were killed by him were all-powerful. Not weak!"

"Yes, I heard that the kid wore a mask like a devil. He was cold-blooded and cruel when fighting, and he was very cruel!"

In the face of his companions, Deken dismissed it and laughed at his companions instead.

"Hah, what kid, what evil spirit, it's just a joke made up by those guys when they're bored? Just a little kid can scare you all. It's really getting worse and worse over here!"

But at this moment, isn't the child in front of him wearing the mask of an evil spirit? His eyes were indifferent, and his fighting tactics were as brutal as beasts. Maybe it was the kid they were talking about?

"I knew it, I should listen to them, and be careful!"

This was the last thought in Deken's mind. It was a pity that the world didn't know it earlier. What's more, even if he knew it earlier, Deken could not escape the hunting of children. This was a gap in strength that could not be made up.

"Plop~~"

Deken's body fell heavily to the ground, and the child silently looked at the blood on his hands, stretched out his tongue, licked his head, and his eyes flashed red.

Reaching out and digging out the heart that no longer beats, the child opened his mouth and bit down without hesitation.

After a long time, the full child stood up slowly, restored his black eyes and looked to the west. There, the sun is about to set, and there is also the habitat of humans, and there is also the destination of the child's next hunt.

I don't know when a piece of incredible news began to circulate among the ghouls in the nine districts.

A child wearing a ghost mask, with a powerful strength that is extremely incompatible with his age, specializes in hunting A-level Ghoul species.

This piece of information continues to spread, even if it is a Ghoul who has heard it before but doesn't believe it at all, it can't help but believe it at this time.

After all, a lot of A-level Ghouls have been hunted down, this is a fact!

Every three or five days, an A-level cannon dies. From the point of view of tactics, they all come from the same district, so they can't help but believe it!

The A-level ghouls in the Ninth District formed alliances and groups to hunt down the child wearing the ghost mask. They were determined to put an end to the child's relentless killing of A-level ghouls.

The leaders of these powerful ghoul groups issued orders to their subordinates to track down the child's whereabouts and launch a coordinated attack. They knew that facing the child alone would be a grave mistake, and unity was their best chance of survival.

The hunt for the child intensified as the A-level ghouls searched relentlessly. They scoured the district, questioning informants, and gathering any leads they could find. They were desperate to locate the child and eliminate the threat.

The child, unaware of the growing opposition against him, continued his relentless pursuit of A-level ghouls.

His reputation grew, and fear spread among the ghoul community. The once-dominant A-level ghouls now lived in constant fear of encountering the child.

However they realized that the Child had one grave weakness, he was alone and without a group and so thus they began to form a trap.

But, It wouldn't be smart to all of a sudden gather a massive amount of Ghouls in a single area, that would be like asking the CCG Investigators, to mass another Extermination.

So they went and scouted for the Child's hunting grounds and came up empty and then this happened.

"L-lord Demon Eater, we've got new intel..." a new scout walked in with a whole lot of fear from meeting the legendary Ghoul from the UK himself.

*crunch!*

As Demon Eater crunched another piece of popcorn "...It seems your name was...Tristan is it?" he asked with no regard for his subordinates.

Tristan moved his glasses and with his legs quite literally trembling he said: "Y-yes, Sir, I spotted, remains of ghouls and human parts and with the Child, no were to be found it was clear he had escaped the district and is most likely in a overran Ghoul territory to avoid us and make it seem as if we declare war by intruding in...Sir" and waited for his fate whether it be Death or perhaps mercy...

Demon Eater's eyes had glowed for a short second so short that Tristan might have hallucinated it "...HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH~!" his rousing laughter caused everyone to listen to what would be a glorious occasion for Tristan.

"S-sir, is my answer to your liking?" he said with actual beads of sweat rolling down his face.

Demon Eater ceased laughing immediately and then asked something "Would you chase after him, or let him escape?" his expression compared to before was actually waiting for his answer.

(...Did the legendary Demon Eater of all people just, acknowledge me? A lowly servant? Is this my big break? Okay, Tristan Confucius Charlotte, you can do this what would you do in his place? Chase after the child would be the obvious answer but the CCG are on us and him so we can...) he was in deep thinking as Tristan's brain had a 'big brain gamer move'.

With his eyes; Kakugan is what they are called, with black sclera and red cracks spreading to their red pupils. Tristan's Kakugan had appeared and it was proof of his ghoul heritage as he said with a deep look:

"The child's presence may have caused the Death of some of the fodder but now with the CCG, distracted with looking for him they aren't guarding the humans and that means free food.

But that would cause them to call backup and that's not good so we'll use this to start a Ghoul takeover in another district by causing a mass Extermination on them as revenge while massively expanding territory" Tristan just stood there as if he expected to be agreed before his eyes become larger and he started fidgeting in fear.

As Demon Eater, "Well, it's clear that you are talent and as such you'll be my advisor correct Tristan?" as the chapter ended!
