章 37: CHAPTER 37: THE FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH SOMEONE LIKE THIS
The sky gradually started to brighten.
For the people of Aragane Station, this night was long.
The place they had always called home was no more.
Some of their family members died, while others turned into Kabane and would never return.
Even Yomokawa Ayame, who suffered the grief of losing her family, welcomed the end of this long night.
Therefore, for those who still survived on the Hayajiro Train, the sunlight today was particularly glaring and long-awaited.
People often say that a new day is equivalent to a new beginning.
This saying seemed to have fully manifested in the bodies of the people in Aragane Station.
Today, for these survivors, it was indeed a new beginning.
Because not only did they need to find a new place to live, but they also had to consider their future lives.
The only thing that remained unchanged was the Hayajiro train which was entirely made of steel.
Loaded with the residents of Aragane Station, the Hayajiro Train continued to move on the railway with its whistle, carrying on.
…
"Mmm…" Mumei woke up under the slightly dazzling sunlight.
Opening her blurry eyes, Mumei stretched lazily while yawning.
"What a comfortable sleep."
After a night of rest, Mumei's mind and energy had fully recovered.
Then, Mumei noticed her surroundings.
Under the sunlight outside the window, the entire carriage appeared bright. The steam boilers were functioning. The sound of the train moving echoed with a booming rumble.
In this carriage, adorned with a steel hue everywhere, Mumei noticed two other people besides her own.
First was the young boy across from her.
Mumei didn't remember his name, only knowing that he was another Kabaneri child like her.
At this moment, this fellow comrade, leaning against the wall, was fast asleep, looking even more exhausted than Mumei herself.
In reality, if one were to compare, he was definitely more tired than her.
After all, for him, it was just one night but in that one night, his home had fallen, he was no longer human, he was rejected by the people around him. Plus, he seemed to carry an unfathomable sense of justice on him, which must have worn him out.
As for the other person present, he was also sleeping against the door leading to the front carriage.
Mumei was quite interested in this person.
Although this person was not a Kabaneri and was just an ordinary human, he was able to kill Kabane with a simple dagger.
What was even more incredible was that, as a skilled combatant with various fighting techniques, Mumei could tell that this person was essentially an amateur when it came to combat. Yet, he excelled in the art of killing.
In a nutshell, he knew how to kill his opponents but didn't know how to defeat them.
Moreover, from the other person's body, Mumei repeatedly felt a strange throbbing sensation.
That throbbing sensation was practically telling Mumei…
"Don't underestimate him, otherwise, you will absolutely be killed by him…"
This was also one of the reasons why Mumei was interested in this person.
Even though he looked so weak, he always gave Mumei a dangerous feeling. How could one not be curious about that?
"This is the first time I've encountered someone like this…" With that thought in mind, Mumei was about to stand up but suddenly felt dizzy and weak.
"Ah…" Mumei immediately understood her condition.
"I'm hungry…"
That's right.
She is hungry.
After she counted carefully, Mumei realized that hadn't eaten anything since yesterday.
"This won't do, I can't go on like this…" Mumei's amber-colored eyes gradually turned crimson as she muttered.
Then, Mumei cast her gaze forward.
She looked at the human body that had piqued her curiosity and then, she walked towards him slowly.
…
Compared to Mumei and Ikoma, Fang Li was actually more exhausted.
Mumei's exhaustion stemmed from her physical condition, which couldn't be helped and didn't consume much energy in itself.
Ikoma's exhaustion came from the impact on his mind and spirit, the loss of family, and the transformation of their existence, which left them mentally drained and exhausted.
As for Fang Li, it was simply a matter of consuming too much stamina.
Since the fall of Aragane Station, Fang Li had hardly rested. He had experienced numerous battles, even killings, with hundreds of Kabane slain, which exhausted him to the point of fatigue.
Afterward, Fang Li had confronted the Samurai of Aragane Station to protect Mumei and Ikoma. He had also faced off against Konochi Kurusu, whose overall strength surpassed his own. It was safe to say that Fang Li was genuinely tired.
However, the rewards were certainly worth it.
Not only had he completed all the main quests, ready to return to the God Space for evaluation and rewards, but he had also earned an astonishing amount of 29,700 Exchange Points, which was nearly 30,000. It was an impressive haul.
According to the guidance message from the Main God's Dimension, the Main Divine Envoy would receive additional benefits during their first Dungeon World, particularly in terms of earning Exchange Points.
For example, Fang Li earned 100 Exchange Points for striking down a Kabane, a treatment that would not be available after the first Dungeon World.
Fang Li felt grateful for the skill he obtained countless times. He was grateful for being bestowed with the Innate Skill "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception."
If it weren't for the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, Fang Li would have to rely on ingratiating himself with the original main character like Ikoma and would have to beg for help, so that he could help them create Tsuranuki Zutsu and provide Jet Bullets, enabling them to earn Exchange Points by striking down Kabane.
Of course, even with the means to strike down Kabane, it would still require engaging in battles.
This level was incredibly difficult for a rookie entering the Main God's Dimension to overcome.
After all, even if you were given a gun, if you didn't know how to use it, aiming would be a problem, let alone considering other factors.
Thanks to Fang Li's inherent personality flaws, which made him fearless of death, lacked fear in combat, and was willing to take risks, and disregard any consequences, combined with his extraordinary sensitivity to "Death," he easily passed this level.
That's why Fang Li's rewards were so plentiful.
For another rookie, completing all the Main Quests in the first Dungeon World would already be considered a great achievement.
With such rewards, Fang Li naturally put in a lot of effort. After tying up loose ends, he immediately fell into a deep sleep.
In a slightly dazed state of consciousness, Fang Li sensed someone approaching him.
