《Nurarihyon System in Another World》Chapter 20 Red-haired Girl
Advertisement
Nura Rihan made his way to the mountain at the back of Xiao Clan, he was running with incredible speed while muttering "Stupid Oyaji" repeating many times as if it was a chant.
While he was running, he noticed something from his peripheral view.
He noticed an abnormal mass of white shadow. If it was a normal person he would hesitate but Rihan who is the young master of the Lord of Pandemonium back on earth doesn't know the word "fear" described by the humans, only the "fear" that demons used.
As he gradually approached, he suddenly discovered that it was actually a person, A very quiet person was lying there.
"Oh, a child? Who left you here? Where's your parents?" When he saw that the blurry image was that of a human, Rihan stopped walking and asked, while adding in his mind: "Parents nowadays are getting irresponsible"
The silhouette did not respond and there was not even a single tiny bit of breathing movement coming from it.
"Hey, please respond or else I'll leave you behind."
Seeing that he still didn't get response he walked closer, As he came before the body in front of him, he stared at the figure while in a daze, under the moonlight.
This was actually a sleeping girl!
The girl looked to be either twelve or thirteen years old and wore a messy dress. Her daintily cute and petite body was curled up like a frightened kitten. Below her skirt's hem revealed two slender snow white legs but upon closer scrutiny, there was actually a distribution of little fine scars. She wore one black shoe on her foot, with the other shoe no where in sight. Her naked foot was like a delicate ice lotus and her exquisite toes were as clear and translucent as a jade carving.
The most striking detail on her body was her hair. It was unexpectedly bright red color.
"Sigh, who would leave such a pitiful child in this mountain" Rihan sighed, unlike his body that almost looked like a teenager he's still 10 years old, he looked at the girl like an adult looking at a young child.

Rihan was about to carry her when he noticed something was wrong, the girl's body, it emitted an extremely poisonous aura.
"What a drag." Shaking his bead Rihan circulated his energy. His left hand shone with golden light, he put it on the girls forehead.
(Note: Healing: He inherited the ability to heal wounds and illnesses from his mother Yōhime, as seen when he heals the poisonous injury inflicted on Yamabuki Otome by the Manba Centipede.)
It took almost an hour until the poison was extracted from her body, Rihan waved his hands causing the poison to splattered on the ground causing the grasses to wither at a visible speed. He turned back his attention and looked at the girl carefully.
If it was a normal adult person they would immediately turn pedophile the next second. This girl was so beautiful, a monstrous beauty, so beautiful that she could probably steal souls. Though Rihan appreciated her beauty he wasn't that affected, he's still a bit naive since he's still young and also his mother Yohime and Setsura is in no way inferior to this girl.
Rihan was about lift her up but he suddenly felt a slight fluctuation in the girl's chest and saw the girl slowly open her eyes… one by one….
She had a pair of exceptionally very black demonic-looking eyes that flashed mysteriously as she blinked. As Rihan met her eyes, he felt a bit of danger but he didn't step back, his scelera turned black while his amber eyes shone with dominance; A yokai should not be scared that's what his father always said.
"Sky… Poison… Pearl…"
"Sky Poison Pearl? What's that?
A cold gust of night wind went by, brushing against Rihan's back and the girl's body. In the cold wind, the girl's body scattered with the wind like mist, completely vanishing from sight, leaving only a broken white skirt, a pair of black princess shoes, and a red butterfly clip.

"Battle it is? Kyōka Suigetsu" his body also vanished along with the wind leaving a black smoke.
He waited for the girl to appear but discovered after a few minutes that she completely dissappeared. He smirked "So she got scared and ran away."
'Don't think too highly of yourself!' Rihan stood and spread his fear around. His other closed eyes opened, he turned serious.
"Where are you?" He closed his eyes trying to spread his sense even further but his conciousness was sucked into the sky poison pearl.
When he entered, he saw a quiet floating snow white jade body in front of him.
"Heh, where is this place? So shall we continue where we left off." He put his hands inside his sleeves and was about to take Nenekirimaru when he was interrupted.
"I don't have plans to fight you, since you have saved this princess' life, therefore this princess shall indeed repay you… You only need to promise this princess three conditions. Then, this princess will immediately let you have… A new set of profound veins… A set of profound veins with the strength of a god!
"Heh, interesting." Touching his chin Rihan spoke: "What makes you think I'm interested in that?"
Jasmine who thought that Rihan would agree without second thought was stunned by his reply, she sneered and replied: "Someone without knowledge would difinitely not know the significance of Evil God Profound Veins"
"Interesting, let me know the conditions I'm more interested to that than getting a power just from an unknown veins. Do your best to entertain me because right now....I'm extremely bored." Rihan's entire aura suddenly changed and become dominant. He was frustrated because his father just leaves him alone and not bringing him he accidentally released his frustration without holding back.
The entire space turned dark. The red-haired girl was stunned, this... she can sense him but her body is not reacting.
"Hahaha, I'm just kidding. Let me know the three conditions that you have." When he realize that he was venting on the girl, he immediately retracted his aura which caused the space to regain it's calm.
"This the first time that this princess met someone like you." This man was really interesting, he doesn't have the eyes filled with lust while looking at her and it seems true that he's bored. He is also a genius just like her, she sensed that he has reached the Sky Profound Realm 10th stage from his outburst earlier.
She also felt a strong vitality coming from him which made her unable to confirm his age. She asked: "How old are you?"
Rihan was a bit confused about this sudden question. He replied absent-mindedly:"I'm 10 years old, why?"
Her calm expression was completely broken. This guy is still 10 years old? How come he looks like fifteen years old young man?
When Rihan noticed her doubtful expression, he turned back to his human form. His sharp expression changed into naivety and innocence, with a childish voice he spoke: "Do you believe me now?"
The red-haired girl felt like her world was turned upside down, this kid can turn into a different form without a trace of disguise or any tempering. She couldn't help but asked: "What are you?"
"I'm 1/2 Ayakashi and Human, why do you ask?" Rihan changed back to his Yokai Form.
"Ayakashi?" What is that?"
"You got so many questions. Let's talk later, I'll explain it to you, let me know the conditions as well, I need to go now."
Wait. Before she could say anything Rihan dissappeared from the space.

Is Lucas Destined to Die in the New World?
Lucas imagined himself doing grander things in life; after all, he put in his own blood, sweat, and tears, and got himself a master's degree in English. Maybe he'd be the next best-selling author, or maybe the most popular late night TV show host. However, life didn't give him anything more than a management position at the local burger joint. Day in and day out, he flipped burgers, swept floors, and made weekly schedules that his employees ignored. All he had known for the past five years of his life was pure misery. Then after one night of drunken revelry, he found himself in an unfamiliar world, but he knew all the gimmicks. He knew these stories had quirks he could manipulate- he could put all his stats into magic and become the best wizard in the world, or he could dump all his stats into strength and become a veritable warrior. But once again, just like Earth, this new world seemed to have different plans for him. Instead, he was given a luck stat of 0 and a skill that forced him into danger where there should have been none. Why is this nerdy, magical paradise trying to kill him? Content warnings are there to give me some creative legroom later. There's not an excess of any gruesome content in the story, and what is there is tastefully sprinkled in. This is a LitRPG. Updates are twice a week on Mon/Fri plus some extras here and there.
