Chapter 564: Chapter 564: Beauty (21)_1 Chapter 564: Chapter 564: Beauty (21)_1 “Isn’t this a bit too eager!”

Faced with Fu Qian’s question, Suzune smirked coldly, her hands exerting force as the paper heart slowly crumpled under her fingers.

“Seeing how much Kana Kisaragi is looking forward to your dinner, even I couldn’t help but become curious. I just couldn’t resist borrowing the invitation over. You wouldn’t mind, would you?”

Her hands pressed against the tabletop, Suzune stared intently at Fu Qian’s face, her tone distinctly unfriendly.

There was no doubt, the Night Watchman was here to pick a fight.

She must have seen the special invitation while escorting a suspect home.

“How could I? It’s just that Lady Suzune’s esteemed attention is both shocking and overwhelming.”

Despite Suzune’s menacing look, Fu Qian continued to speak with a beaming smile.

“I actually understand what you’re thinking.”

Seeing how recklessly Fu Qian was behaving, Suzune leaned in closer, her voice growing even deeper.

“As soon as today’s test is over and Kana Kisaragi’s Miracle Elixir is deemed ineffective, you’ll be able to do whatever you want, without worrying about me causing you any trouble, right?”

“If you think about it, isn’t that so?”

Fu Qian looked genuinely surprised.

“It is reasonable, yeah, but unfortunately, I won’t let you get your way.”

It was apparent that Suzune had learned from their previous encounters, and she wasn’t going to let Fu Qian’s attitude make her lose her composure.

“I no longer care about how Kisaragi Iketa actually died, but I will never allow, a cold-blooded scum like you, to do the same thing to his daughter at this time.”

“I understand your feelings, but are you sure that’s what the person in question also thinks?”

In the face of Suzune’s deadly declaration, Fu Qian, with his chin in hand, looked quite unfazed.

…

His question clearly caught Suzune off guard, her breath hitching as if she were recalling some unpleasant memories.

“The two daughters of the Kisaragi family are indeed hard to understand.”

“I can’t imagine what you’ve done to them, but Kana Kisaragi certainly doesn’t believe a word I say and is quite looking forward to tonight’s dinner.”

“Even her sister hasn’t said a thing about it.”

“That just means you’re poor at reading people.”

In response to Suzune’s confusion, Fu Qian offered his criticism.

“The difference between human hearts is beyond imagination. For Kana Kisaragi, as long as she can get the attention she wants, pain and blood mean nothing.”

“I’ve noticed it long ago, she truly is beyond saving.”

Suzune nodded slowly, surprisingly agreeing with Fu Qian’s viewpoint.

“And you, to be honest, even I have to admit, you’re quite impressive as an ordinary person.”

“Sharp-witted, cold-blooded, and understanding of human nature, this allows you to thrive within the rules, satisfying your perverse desires without punishment.”

“But sadly, in this world, there aren’t only one set of rules.”

“I used to get caught up in empty speculations too, wondering whether the existence of Transcendent powers was good or bad for the world.”

“But as of today, I’m immensely grateful that I possess such a power… the power to break the rules temporarily.”

While speaking, a shiny dagger appeared in Suzune’s hand, and with a flip, the hard tabletop was sliced like tofu, leaving a crisscross of marks.

“Now, may I have a taste of your delicacy?”

“Surely the dinner can’t be prepared if Kana Kisaragi doesn’t come, right?”

“How could that be!”

In the face of Suzune’s nearly overflowing murderous aura, Fu Qian shook his head, his smile undiminished.

“Although the guest has arrived a bit early, some of the more time-consuming dishes have actually been prepared ahead of time.”

“Please wait a moment.”

After finishing speaking, Fu Qian stood up gracefully amidst Suzune Kisaragi’s bewildered gaze and turned to walk toward the kitchen.

Upon entering the kitchen, Fu Qian reached out to lift a lid on the stove.

From this angle, one could actually see steaming soup beneath.

…

Was this guy really preparing dinner?

As she struggled to believe what she was seeing, Suzune Kisaragi suddenly noticed something else that was off.

Darcy Crawford, this Man-Eater Demon, had unaccountably put on a mask at some point.

It was the head of a turkey, brightly colored with a fierce expression.

At that moment, she faintly recalled seeing him pick up something casually on his way to the kitchen.

“Please, help yourself. Don’t be shy.”

While scrutinizing this extremely ugly sight, Fu Qian had apparently already served the soup and returned to place it on the table.

This is…

Suzune Kisaragi instinctively looked down and saw in the beautifully arranged soup bowl, the creamy-white broth was thick, obviously simmered for a long time.

A peculiar smell mingled with the fragrance of cream, incessantly creeping into her nostrils.

However, upon seeing what was floating in the soup, Suzune Kisaragi first froze, then nearly vomited.

There were clusters of tissue the size of walnuts, tender white, with distinctive wrinkles on the surface… these were the brains of some entity.

And Suzune Kisaragi, with her experience, would not mistake them for the brains of any livestock this time.

“Didn’t you say that only the freshest tastes good? From whom did you get this?”

Struggling to suppress her rolling stomach, Suzune Kisaragi gritted her teeth and asked.

“This one isn’t actually fresh.”

Due to the mask, Fu Qian’s voice was somewhat muffled.

“But the brain is different from other parts, too fresh and the mind has too many random thoughts, so it’s better to let it calm down a bit for a tastier flavor.”

“Take your time drinking it, there’s plenty more over there.”

“You cold-blooded beast!”

Faced with the gruesome turkey head before her, Suzune Kisaragi finally couldn’t bear it any longer and roared lowly.

In the flicker of cold light, the dagger tore through the air, aiming straight for Fu Qian’s head.

Although she had made up her mind to eliminate this menace at any cost when she saw his message, her determination only grew stronger after witnessing what she had just seen.

Hm?

However, in the next moment, this deadly strike fueled by a Transcendent’s fury, surprisingly missed.

In the blink of an eye, the figure with the turkey head had taken a step back, not even grazing the hem of his clothes.

Incredulous at the scene before her, Suzune Kisaragi’s body stiffened, feeling her understanding of reality being challenged.

“Are you a Transcendent?”

In the next second as she realized what had happened, her voice turned shrill.

Such speed, it was impossible for an ordinary person to achieve!

So this guy was never a normal human being, that was the only possible explanation!

“You’ve been a Transcendent all along…”

The moment she realized this, Suzune Kisaragi’s heart was filled with even more intense fury.

He had been a Transcendent all along, she had had the chance to eliminate this disaster much earlier… and some people didn’t have to die…

But she hadn’t.
