"What are you doing?"
"Can't you tell?"
"I only see the fact that you have me cornered with a sword."
She sighed, "I'll ask again, do you want to join me?"
"No, so can you explain to me why you were holding a sword at school?" Her eyes turned cold, as if she thought I was talking nonsense.
"Answer my question."
"So, what's going on? Can you please put down the sword and talk?"
"Don't move! Even pretending to be stupid should have its limits."
"I don't understand what you mean."
Her brows furrowed, and it seemed like she had little patience left for me.
"So difficult to deal with!"
She sheathed her sword and then took a stance, "This should be the line I'm supposed to say." Then she thrust her sword at me, defenseless.
Without dodging or fighting back, I obediently took her blow.
"Did you see through it? This attack really lacked killing intent after all."
Her sword lightly grazed my abdomen, only causing slight damage to my clothes and skin.
"You're overthinking it. I was just purely scared by you and couldn't move. Why did you have to use force?"
"Code name Y, weapon is Western sword, countless demon hunts, a lone ranger. That's how I know you."
She stared straight at me, "But someone like that actually pretended to be just like everyone else in Here, and even tried to deceive me with a feigned injury. Hey, stop daydreaming and answer me!"
I use my hand to pat the dust off my clothes, check the wound, and move my joint a bit.
"It's really annoying, but that's how it is!" She stabbed at me without mercy this time.
"You really do know a lot of details."
There's no other way. I took out my weapon from the Empty land and prepared to fight.
"What, so you were carrying that Western sword all along." Suddenly blocked by the Western sword, she seemed to smile, then quickly regained her stance and came at me again. "Because I did some tracking investigation."
"Hey hey hey, what's with the stalking?"
"Actually blocked it, and pretty fast too," she ignored my sarcasm, but her attacks didn't stop.
"I mean, why does it have to be me?"
"Because you have the strength."
Every one of her strikes is very sharp, making it impossible for me to defend perfectly, forcing me to use more strength to deal with her.
"There are plenty of capable people out there, why come to me?"
"Stop with the nonsense, why not just tell me why you won't cooperate with me?"
Her strength is very strong, I can't be sure that I will win against her in a battle. Her attack speed is even increasing, it's really unbelievable.
"Because you are too weak, you will hold me back."
"I can pretend I didn't hear such ridiculous words."
The other party seems very confident in themselves. Let's change perspective. They were on the defensive just now, now let me take the initiative.
"It seems like you're very confident in yourself, which isn't a bad thing. I can't just work for you for nothing. The rewards from our collaboration will be divided fairly, I won't accept anything less."
Surprisingly, there's no sign of being pushed back, and her defense and counterattacks are also very impressive.
"If it's money you want, I can provide it. Just consider it as me hiring you."
Her breathing remained steady, and she slowly began to suppress my momentum. Although I wasn't serious, I still managed to put in some effort.
"I am very expensive, can you afford me?"
"Behave and do as I say, and of course I will give you money."
"Stop right there," she also tacitly stopped attacking with me.
"Alright, you said it yourself. Money can solve anything." If this continues, with the strength I just displayed, I will definitely be caught off guard and lose the game.
"It seems you're not as difficult to deal with as the rumors say."
"Who would have trouble getting along with money? After all, I'm still working with pretty girl." I laughed frivolously.
"That's it then, let's exchange contact information and chat more in the future," she ignored my frivolous words and earnestly asked for my contact information.
"Hey, you're in such a hurry to get my contact information, it's making me shy. I didn't expect you to be so forward," I tried to deflect her request with a frivolous remark, but she didn't seem to buy it.
"Bring me the phone."
"Okay, sorry, I'll get it right away." Her monstrous aura made me dare not be more presumptuous.
"It's really you, Y. I didn't mistake you for someone else."
She threw my phone back to me and started fiddling with her own phone.
"Is it a bit late to be sure now?" I looked at my phone, the contact she had helped me save with the name Snow, and a very cute rabbit doll as her profile picture.
"Oh, Xiao Xue, hehe, it sounds really nice, I think I've heard it before." I pretended to fish for information like a pervert. I had heard her name before; she was a new member of the Public security demon hunting organization and had gained some fame due to her outstanding performance.
"Why have you heard of me? Do even the common Monster Hunter pay attention to us?"
Yes, I am a free Monster Hunter who does not belong to any organization or person. People like me are either advanced Monster Hunters who are so strong that others can only hold us back, or we are crazy Monster Hunters with a strong independent spirit.
"Who knows, after all, your organization does seem to like sending people to recruit me, so Xiao Xue you are not, right?"
"Your eyes are good nausea, I just came to cooperate with you based on personal willingness."
It's a little bit sad to have my frivolous gaze described as nausea. I'm still curious, there must be something that people stronger than me have, but why choose me? Is there any opportunity?
" Xiao Xue, do you like me?"
"I just hope your brain is functioning normally when we're hunting demons."
"Such a malicious response does seem unlikely. So, are you interested in something I have? She couldn't possibly know about that."
"lightsnow, how much have you investigated about me?"
"Ask what this is for, anyway, I know it like the back of my hand when it comes to your schedule and such."
" Xiao Xue, do you have it?" I pondered for a moment.
She blinked her eyes and tucked the sword into the crack, waiting for my question.
"Have you ever seen me fight?"
"No."
Really, then why did you say you wanted to cooperate with me?
"I'm actually very weak, those legends are all fake."
"I just saw it."
She didn't wait for me to say more and choked me back.
"Are you saying that the fight just now convinced you of my strength?"
"Is there a problem?" She had a confident expression as if there were no issues at all.
However, there is a loophole. If she didn't know my true strength, how could she be so sure from the beginning that I am the legendary "Y"? How did she determine my identity without seeing my battles?
"I object! You haven't seen me fight, so how do you know I'm 'Y'?"
"Because the organization has your information and photos."
Damn it, how annoying! So embarrassing! I forgot about that stupid organization, and they really are keeping an eye on me!
"Wait! Does that mean I looked like a fool pretending not to know from the beginning?"
"Turns out you have this kind of self-awareness?" She widened her eyes, seemingly surprised, as if she was adding insult to injury to me.
I really want to die, it's so embarrassing. But as the saying goes, there must be someone better than me. Why did "Y" catch her eye? I should pay more attention to her in the future.
"No, I really want to find a crack to hide in. Can we disband for today?"
"As you wish, but we have to regroup tomorrow afternoon."
"I understand, let's get in touch later."
She didn't say much and left the corner of the school.
