Crossover Anime: The Bull Demon's Road to Conquest

Chapter 187 Continued

[Due to the host's detrimental influence, the Japanese government has classified the host as a critically endangered target and a Class A disaster. The host's reputation will also spread beyond Japan. Congratulations, host, for gaining 6 Legendary Points. The World Erosion Index has increased slightly.]

[Host's Legendary Ability has reached 10 points, unlocking the Power of Fear.]

[The Power of Fear: The fear of all beings is the highest praise for a demon. Fear towards the host will transform into awe and obedience. The host can also suppress opponents by emanating the 'Power of Fear,' causing them immense psychological pressure, rendering them unable to resist, and even inducing them to willingly submit to the host.]

"This legendary status is quite difficult to achieve. To convert it into a fear aura, you need 30 points. Once you absorb fear, you can convert it into soul energy. However, to make it a fixed talent, you need another 50 points."

After leaving the area of ​​combat, Niu Kun received a message that his legend level had increased. He then gained a new skill: as long as he didn't deliberately restrain himself, he would naturally exude a terrifying aura.

However, the witches around Niu Kun, having already been corrupted by Niu Kun's magic and the turbid white substance within and without, were completely tainted by Niu Kun's colors and were therefore not greatly affected by the power of fear.

However... Imano Shizuru, who had not yet been bound to Niu Kun by contract, could clearly sense the difference. If she had only felt that Niu Kun's appearance was ferocious and his aura was intimidating before,

Niu Kun now resembles a true demon king. Even though his movements haven't changed, his figure seems to have become inexplicably more imposing.

He exudes an invisible pressure that makes people's hearts tremble and their souls shake, instinctively generating fear, which in turn gives rise to thoughts of retreat and even submission.

Shizuru Imano was momentarily dazed, then bit her lip. The stinging pain from the bleeding lip brought her back to her senses. But then she recalled being injured by her sister who had mysteriously disappeared and then suddenly reappeared, and having the Killing Stone given to her by her father taken away. The more she thought about it, the more disheartened she became.

After her older sister Setsuna Imano left, Shizuru Imano, who was injured and unable to walk, was brought back by Hitagi and Tsubasa. Then, Aki Nijo treated her injuries. This was the first injured person that Aki Nijo treated after being forced to join Ushikun's command.

Although Shizuru Imano was shot through the abdomen, and under normal medical care, even after suturing, she would still need some time to recover, Shizuru Imano was completely healed almost instantly after Aki Nijo's unscientific elemental healing method.

After recovering from her injuries, Shizuru Imano quickly learned from Tsubasa about herself and the situation she would face. Shizuru did not panic or lose her composure.

On the contrary, she seemed to maintain some clarity and rationality, quietly waiting for Niu Kun's decision, while there was another woman next to Jing Liu who looked dazed.

Because it wasn't Niu Kun's order, Jian Guang Ji ultimately couldn't bring herself to do it. In the end, Inu Naruto was killed by the enraged Kaoru. After dying as a demon, Inu Naruto didn't even leave behind a corpse.

Besides the Killing Stone, only one demon horn remains.

You have obtained the Silver-tier magical item [Killing Stone]!

You have obtained the bronze-tier magical item [Red Demon Horn]!

Shinichiro Inunaki was Kenshin's mentor and the object of her unrequited love, yet he died before her eyes. She was powerless to do anything and even forced to submit to the enemy. This realization left her utterly devastated. (The original story likely involved her ex-boyfriend, but this has been drastically altered.)

Inu-Naki, who had transformed into a demon, was killed by Kaoru. Through the familiar contract, Niu-Kun could only receive one-third of the original soul energy, but he still had sixty points of soul energy. Niu-Kun glanced at his soul energy balance and then chose to upgrade his Human Transformation Technique to level three.

Level 1 has 10 points, Level 2 has 30 points, Level 3 has 100 points, and you can't level up any higher. After reaching Level 3, the skill has new skill branches: [Time-Limited Increase] and [Usage Increase].

The former simply adds three hours to the usage time, while the latter adds one more skill use per day; they sound pretty much the same... but...

Niu Kun's human transformation technique adds an extra hour of transformation time with each level. Level 1 is three hours, Level 2 is four hours, and Level 3 is five hours.

If you choose to increase the duration, you will have eight hours of transformation time per day. If you choose to increase the number of uses, you can maintain ten hours per day, and it is also more flexible.

So after a brief moment of thought, Niu Kun chose the second skill branch. After completing the skill upgrade, Niu Kun could use it again. After a little thought, Niu Kun decisively used the Polymorph spell on himself again. Anyway, he couldn't save it now, and it would be refreshed after midnight.

"The night is still long, let's go shopping some more!"

Having transformed back into human form, Niu Kun waved his hand and prepared to wreak havoc on the bustling commercial street, hoping to witness another miraculous coincidence. As for whether it would bring more trouble and embarrassment to the Japanese government, that was not within Niu Kun's consideration.

..........

A beautiful girl with pink hair and large breasts walked timidly through the deserted streets, carrying a schoolbag. Her graceful and beautiful figure under the dim streetlights looked like an invitation to commit a crime.

In fact, some scoundrels and rascals had attempted to commit crimes before, but...

"Hehe, this is truly the most delicious food I've ever seen before! I'm so lucky! You're mine, and no one can take you away! No one... can take you away!!"

A young man who appeared to be dressed in a suit and tie, seeing that there was no one else around, finally couldn't hold back any longer. He threw down the briefcase he was using as a disguise and rushed straight up to stop the pink-haired girl.

The man sniffed, a perverted look of ecstasy on his face, and his once normal glasses gradually turned blood red.

His skin was covered in fish-scale-like scales, and his body stretched beyond two meters, bursting out of his suit. His face was also transformed from an ordinary man into a terrifying demon.

Its gaping maw split open to reveal chillingly sharp teeth and fangs, its long, razor-sharp nails, and its bloodthirsty eyes fixed on the pink-haired girl as it hissed and growled.

"I want to...I want to imprison you in the basement and slowly devour your flesh and blood, eating you piece by piece. Don't even think about escaping. Come on, become my meal. I will be very gentle, very gentle in dismembering you!"

Upon hearing the demon's roar and declaration, the pink-haired girl showed no panic or fear whatsoever. Instead, she raised her head and glanced at the demon with a half-smile.

"As expected, this young lady is still as popular as ever. However, an ugly nobody like you has nothing to be proud of. You should just die already!"

After saying that, the pink-haired girl raised her hand and pulled the trigger of the specially made double-barreled explosive pistol. A flash of light appeared, and then the hideous demon whose mind was completely occupied by desire was pierced into the forehead by a metal bullet as thick as a thumb before it could react.

Many of these evil spirits are not actually the transformed forms of the living after death; their true form is a composite of numerous scattered negative emotions from humanity, existing as an extremely malevolent spiritual entity.

Although they possess intelligence comparable to humans and inherit the memories of the host body after occupying a human body with a weak will, they are inherently composed of many negative emotions such as rage, murder, resentment, greed, and lust.

Therefore, they are inevitably impulsive, easily angered, bloodthirsty, greedy, and have an extreme desire to kill humans and eat their flesh and blood. They also enjoy pleasure and torture.

As they survive long enough and devour enough humans, they will gradually evolve into more powerful and terrifying evil spirits and monsters, while also becoming more cunning and ruthless.

However, the demon in front of him was no high-ranking character. Blinded by greed, it no longer cared about the pink-haired girl's suspicious behavior, rushed forward to tear off her disguise, and was then blown to the head.

The specially designed projectile, propelled at high speed, smashed open the demon's skull and instantly burst forth with a blazing, masculine light, igniting the heavily struck demon from head to toe, turning it into a torch in the blink of an eye.

The demon thrashed about, screaming, but the pink-haired girl easily dodged it. She then twirled her pistol, watching triumphantly as the demon collapsed to the ground and was burned to dust by the flames.

Chapter 188 Tavern

"What a pathetic demon, dying so easily and carelessly?!"

At this moment, another pink-haired, large-breasted girl came out, carrying a grenade launcher that looked quite heavy, and looked at the demon that was gradually turning to ashes with dissatisfaction.

"Well, actually it wasn't that bad. It's just a pity that it ran into a trap that I, the young lady, deliberately set. It's only natural that it was eliminated."

Although Takagi Saya had also looked down on that demon earlier, when she heard Nashita Oriha also mocking her, she couldn't help but offer an explanation. The reason, of course, was to make sure that her spoils weren't so cheap.

Zhiye squinted and tilted her head, her expression revealing her disagreement: "Really? I feel like only brainless demons like this would fall for it. It's not as good as that mechanical demon that I took five grenades to kill last time."

"Tch, that clumsy evil spirit made of discarded household appliances is practically a sitting duck. Besides, I was the one who first noticed something was wrong and lured it out."

Perhaps it's due to the repulsion between similar species, but Saya and Oriha, both pink-haired and large-breasted younger sisters, bickered quite a bit. Although Saya was older, the tsundere young lady Saya was clearly not the gentle older sister type.

The confident idol, Oriha, is no pushover either. Speaking of which, the pink-haired girl, Yuno, who's always with Niu Kun, seems to be... well, Yuno doesn't get along well with any of the other witches besides Niu Kun.

Just as the two pink-haired, large-breasted girls were squinting and bickering, a motorcycle stopped. The silver-haired girl, who had opened her helmet visor, looked at the two rather immature girls and couldn't help but sigh.

Feeling inexplicably tired, Kiba Mikoto felt like an older sister taking care of two younger sisters, but... actually, Mikoto didn't dislike this feeling.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. The master just called."

"Huh? Master called? Is there a new mission?"

"Master must be missing the delicate and graceful Oriha! That's why he called and wants Oriha to come and serve him, isn't that right?!"

"How could that be? My master is surrounded by a group of alluring women, why would he think of you?"

Saya curled her lips, trying to discourage Oriha, but she couldn't help looking at Mikoto with a hint of anticipation.

"Our master was drinking at a nearby tavern. After sensing our location, he invited us to come over for a drink."

Mikoto was already somewhat used to Saya and Oriha's bickering, so she ignored Oriha's wide-eyed glare at Saya and finished speaking.

"What? Master... is drinking at the tavern?!"

Saya and Oriha were greatly surprised upon hearing this. They looked at each other in disbelief. Could it be that their master had killed everyone or scared them away to drink there?

But then... the police or Saeko from the countermeasures office would probably get the news and rush over.

"Um... I'll keep you in suspense for now. You'll understand once you see the master."

Mikoto couldn't help but blink her right eye, and smiled slightly.

"How childish."

Saya muttered something under her breath, and then saw Oriha nimbly leap onto Mikoto's motorcycle, urging Mikoto on before Saya could even get going.

"Let's go, Mikoto. Saya-chan thinks Master is childish, so she doesn't want to go."

"What...what nonsense are you talking about?!"

Saya was shocked upon hearing this, her pink twin ponytails almost popping out of their sockets. Without further hesitation, she jumped onto the back of the motorcycle, and then her large breasts squeezed against Oriha as she leaned towards Mikoto.

"Sigh~ I should have gotten a longer motorcycle."

Mikoto sighed, but her movements didn't slow down at all. She sped off at full speed, leaving only a small patch of ashes-like powder on the roadside.

..........

"It's really...enviable..."

In a well-known street-side pub, Takeshi Oyama and his best friend Kengo Usui huddled in a corner, staring at the pub with envy and resentment.

Because even the most spacious seats couldn't accommodate one man and nine women, and the tavern already had many customers, the owner and some customers became quite sensible thanks to the power of money.

The shop owner cleverly used three four-person tables to create a long table next to the long sofa chairs against the wall. He also thoughtfully used some green plants and decorative shelves to create a small, relatively independent area.

Customers in other seats, regardless of age, couldn't help but frequently turn their heads to look; it was truly... truly enviable.

Nine stunningly beautiful women of varying ages and figures gathered together, fawning over a man—it's something you wouldn't even dare to dream of.

"What a scumbag! Look at those two pretty girls, they're even wearing maid outfits. Could that guy really be the young master of some big conglomerate? But why would a young master like that come to a small place like this?"

Kengo Usui gripped his chopsticks tightly, looking like he was about to cry, and muttered to his friend Takeshi Oyama. However, he kept his voice very low for fear of disturbing the young master inside.

However, Takeshi Oyama could still hear his friend's mutterings, and nodded in agreement. With a mournful face, he muttered indignantly, "It's so unfair! I've never even held a girl's hand at school, so why can he parade around with nine beauties of all ages?!"

"Damn tycoons, damn spoiled brats, I curse that guy to have kidney deficiency! No, that guy definitely already has kidney deficiency!!"

Kengo Usui couldn't help but grit his teeth and mutter hatefully, while Takeshi Oyama nodded in agreement first, and then said with a hint of regret, "But that guy is all muscle, as strong as an ox, he shouldn't have kidney deficiency."

"Of course it could be. That muscle might just be from injections. I've heard that too many injections can... hehe..."

Jealousy burned fiercely within him, and Kengo Usui naturally refused to accept that the other's muscles were the result of genuine hard work, even though Ushikun's muscles were indeed not built by himself.

He's just exceptionally gifted.

Just as Kengo Usui and Takeshi Oyama were whispering to each other about crickets and cow burrs, the sound of a motorcycle screeching to a halt suddenly came from outside the window. Turning around, Kengo Usui couldn't help but widen his eyes again.

"Awu, look! Look!"

When Takeshi Oyama heard his friend's urgent whisper, he quickly turned his head and saw a motorcycle that looked expensive parked in front of the tavern outside the glass window.

A tall, slender, and plump silver-haired girl with peach-like breasts took off her helmet, followed by two other beautiful girls with large pink breasts who also jumped off the motorcycle.

"Three more rare beauties, wait... could it be... Masaka..."

Seeing the three beautiful girls seemingly about to enter the tavern, Kenji Usui, who had been looking like a lecherous man, suddenly seemed to realize something and stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Ooyama Takeshi immediately understood, and he too looked incredulous. But the three beautiful girls who entered the tavern confirmed their fears.

The shortest girl, a pink-haired girl with huge breasts and a loli-like appearance, rushed excitedly into the tavern. Then, with a cheer, she squeezed past the other beautiful girls and threw herself into the arms of the guy who was particularly infuriating.

Instantly, Takeshi Oyama and Kengo Usui seemed to hear the sound of hearts breaking. Two of the broken hearts belonged to the two of them, while the others belonged to other customers in the bar, including the bar owner and part-time waiters.

"Why...why?! Why is God so cruel?!"

Takeshi Oyama felt that his good friend Kengo Usui was about to turn to the dark side. Although he felt that he himself was also about to turn to the dark side, he thought of his childhood friend whom he had just reunited with not long ago.

Takeshi Oyama felt a warm feeling welling up in his heart, as if he had been healed. His jealousy and hatred seemed to have lessened. He glanced at his friend's distorted face and silently murmured to himself.

"Kengo, I'm sorry, but we are ultimately different."

As he adjusted his glasses, Chunlian's smile flashed into Daiyama Takeshi's mind, suddenly giving him an urge to go find her.

Deep inside the tavern, Niu Kun held the woman who was throwing herself into his arms, while also calming down Yuno, who was glaring at him with murderous intent, and Saya, who was unhappy that she had run off first. He also managed to listen to the crickets chirping behind Ooyama Takeshi and Usui Kengo's backs.

The reason he entered the bar was naturally because he recognized Takeshi Ooyama, the male protagonist of the manga "Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha," who is one of the few male protagonists in the same genre with a rather tragic ending.

It seemed like a harem ecchi anime at first, but by the end of the manga, he was all alone. He got beaten up countless times throughout the story, but he didn't manage to pick up almost a single girl, making him extremely pathetic.

So Niu Kun led a group of beautiful girls into the tavern to show that pitiful and pathetic male protagonist what kind of treatment a harem anime male protagonist should receive.

Well, it's a bit like a petty person getting their way, but Niu Kun wasn't exactly a person of high moral character to begin with; he just occasionally indulged in his base vanity.

Tsk, it feels pretty good too. No wonder those reborn domineering CEO novels have such a large audience.

Seriously, you'll know once you use it.

Chapter 189 Going to School

As night deepened, the two envious high school boys reluctantly left the tavern, looking wistfully at the still bustling street.

Although I heard that a large-scale gunfight broke out in the neighboring city, and many videos of bloody scenes were uploaded to the internet, and although the authorities tried to ban them, it is clear that they failed.
