Chapter 4 - Aitaka Yoshimura (Izumi Takatsuki)

The cute girl in front of him had messy green hair, a petite and slender figure, and beautiful eyes like emeralds.

Despite her youthful appearance and figure, she looked like a young girl, only about 1.5 meters tall, but her actual age was twenty-four.

Eto Yoshimura.

Moreover, her true identity presented a stark contrast to her delicate and adorable exterior.

If Kamishiro Rize was considered brutal enough, compared to Eto Yoshimura, she was far less so.

Eto Yoshimura's true identity is that of a natural Half-Ghoul, a hybrid of human and Ghoul, also known as a "One-Eyed Ghoul." Unlike Kaneki Ken, who was an artificial Half-Ghoul in the original work, Eto Yoshimura is the only natural Half-Ghoul in the world today.

Her strength far surpasses that of ordinary Ghouls; she can be said to be the strongest Ghoul on the surface, incredibly powerful and extremely brutal.

Looking at Eto Yoshimura in front of him, Yakuchi Kei was immediately surprised.

He didn't expect to run into Eto Yoshimura just by walking down the street.

However, he quickly calmed down and deduced that it might be because of his special contact with Kamishiro Rize that Eto Yoshimura suddenly seemed to coincidentally meet him.

Yakuchi Kei was more inclined to believe his own judgment than such a coincidental encounter.

After all, in the original work, "Aogiri Tree" had always wanted to capture Kamishiro Rize, and the reason was due to Kamishiro Rize's identity.

And Eto Yoshimura herself is the "One-Eyed Owl" who founded "Aogiri Tree," and she is also the daughter of Yoshimura Kuzen; she harbors a deep hatred for the Washuu Family, so she would naturally be quite interested in Kamishiro Rize, who has a special status within the "Washuu Family."

"Young man, you should watch where you're going when you walk."

At this moment, Eto Yoshimura was the first to speak to Yakuchi Kei.

"Thank you for the reminder, I will be careful."

Yakuchi Kei just responded normally, not showing any sign of knowing Eto Yoshimura.

"Be careful~"

After speaking, Eto Yoshimura hummed a cheerful tune and left.

It was as if she was just a passerby he had met by chance.

If Yakuchi Kei didn't know anything, her warning of "be careful" would certainly not have been taken to heart by him.

But combined with the truth about Kamishiro Rize, the meaning of Eto Yoshimura's words became very clear.

At this point, Yakuchi Kei could basically confirm that his "coincidental" encounter with Eto Yoshimura was indeed because of Kamishiro Rize.

Although he and Eto Yoshimura only met briefly and exchanged a few words, what truly needed to be concerned about was that he should now be under the surveillance of Eto Yoshimura and "Aogiri Tree."

It was only surveillance, because Eto Yoshimura, like Yoshimura Kuzen, would not rashly do anything to Kamishiro Rize; at least Eto Yoshimura herself, due to the threat of the Washuu Family, would not act personally, at most sending subordinates like Gecko Ōmori Yakumo to capture Kamishiro Rize.

"I know…"

Facing Eto Yoshimura's cheerful, almost mocking reminder, Yakuchi Kei responded faintly.

Although it was quite soft, Eto Yoshimura still heard him, but he didn't care if Eto Yoshimura heard him.

Eto Yoshimura did not look back at Yakuchi Kei, but her lips curled slightly.

A bit interesting~

It seems this guy who actively approached and even confessed to Kamishiro Rize is not just a simple human boy as he appears on the surface.

But in all the comprehensive intelligence she possessed, there was absolutely no information about this human boy.

She could tell by his scent that he was not a Ghoul, so was he a human? A Half-Human? And from which faction? Moreover, he just happened to be holding her debut novel, "to kafka," and reading it.

Eto Yoshimura suddenly became even more interested in this guy.

...

At this moment, Yakuchi Kei had already returned home.

His home was also in Tokyo's 20th Ward, the area where Yoshimura Kuzen served as the "manager," and it was also relatively the safest among all areas in Tokyo.

Since Japanese universities usually do not provide dormitories, students either rent houses outside or go home, so Yakuchi Kei stayed at home tonight and would go to school tomorrow morning. His home was very close to Kamii University, which is also in the 20th Ward, so it was quite convenient.

At this moment, Yakuchi Kei noticed a mirror. He suddenly thought of something and walked over to curiously look into the mirror, wanting to see if his appearance had changed after his transmigration.

He only knew that his limbs were still the same, only his hairstyle had changed, becoming much longer than his original hairstyle, but he didn't know if his facial features had also changed.

Looking in the mirror, he found that his facial features were still the same as before.

He had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and his handsome features did not lack a heroic spirit. Although his facial features were not very similar to Uchiha Madara, his hairstyle change was clearly based on the same template as Uchiha Madara, just not as long as Ban Ye's, probably like the style of "Yuhi Obito" without the long tail.

This hairstyle, coupled with the Sharingan, which is the same as Ban Ye's, even if the facial features are not similar, it can still achieve a striking resemblance.

Speaking of the Sharingan, Yakuchi Kei's One-Tomoe Sharingan had always been in a dormant state.

At this time, he tried to activate the Sharingan. With a thought, his One-Tomoe Sharingan appeared, with a single tomoe in each of his scarlet eyes.

The moment the One-Tomoe Sharingan activated, Yakuchi Kei could immediately feel a significant enhancement in his vision and perception, a wondrous sensation as if he had changed to a new pair of eyes.

However, facts proved that this pair of Sharingan was already highly compatible with him; it seemed he had also obtained Uchiha Madara's bloodline and could freely activate or deactivate the Sharingan.

After experiencing the feeling of the Sharingan, he immediately deactivated it. He did not plan to casually keep the Sharingan active normally, as it would continuously consume Chakra and easily bring him trouble.

Because human society in this world is full of malice towards Ghouls, the fundamental reason, of course, is that Ghouls feed on humans. And the Sharingan is very similar to the scarlet Kakuugan (Ghoul Eye). If he were to walk down the street with the Sharingan activated, he would definitely be asking for trouble.

At the very least, it would cause a huge panic, and the subsequent troubles would be countless.

...

After eating a dinner he cooked himself, Yakuchi Kei spent the night finishing "to kafka," which he had brought back, and then it was almost time to shower and sleep.

[Ding! The host has finished reading "to kafka" and received a reward: 1 Fusion Point!]

The next morning.

Before going to school, Yakuchi Kei first returned "to kafka" to "Anteiku" as agreed.

Touka Kirishima also had to go to school early in the morning, so Yakuchi Kei was personally received by the manager, Yoshimura Kuzen.

"The deposit has been returned to you. Please check it."

Yoshimura Kuzen said to Yakuchi Kei with a benevolent smile and a very kind tone.

Most people would never imagine that such a benevolent old man was the SSS-Class Ghoul "Non-Killing Owl," who struck fear into the hearts of countless humans and even Ghoul Investigators
