บท 8: 8. Debut 2
Making a debut as a ghoul was quite different from that as a novelist. He did not want to become famous, to be precise, small fame could make him build power easier but he did not want to become too famous and attracted the attention of V. Or having a safety measure in case they tried to find his identity which fit the concept of hidden ones identity, just a bit more extreme.
Yorimitsu found an auspicious date for himself as a debut day. He wore a black long-sleeve shirt that fit with black jeans and leather boots. On his head was a helmet that covered all of his face, which was a lot better camouflage than normal masks.
Not only that, he inserted shoulder pads and foot pads to make him look taller like a small adult to fake his age, he even wore gloves to prevent his fingerprints from being discovered.
Moreover, he did not intend to use his kagune, at least not before he became an S-Class ghoul, but robbed quinques from the Doves.
No fingerprints, no actual height, no hair color, not even type of kagune, if he went this far and still got discovered then he had nothing to say either.
After finishing the preparations, he headed out of his apartment in the middle of the night without anyone noticing, heading towards his hunting ground.
Traveling distance had never been a problem for him, Yorimitsu did not hunt in the 7th ward where he lived but set his sights on the 6th ward next to it to avoid getting tracked down, moreover, he knew from the manga that the ghoul who managed the 6th ward was an SS-Class ghoul called Shachi, or Kamishiro Matasaka, the adoptive father of Kamishiro Rize.
He adopted Rize after she fled from V and taught her many things that he became a father figure for her. After Rize grew up, she began to unscrupulously kill people and attract the CCG's attention. Shachi fought them and was detained in Cochlea until Aogiri broke in. Then, he joined Aogiri to find Rize before getting killed by Arima afterward.
The part where he was killed wasn't that important. What attracted Yorimitsu attention was that Shachi was one of the very few ghouls that tried to develop martial art skills. And with Shachi personality, Yorimitsu believed that he would be willing to teach him if Yorimitsu asked for it.
Moreover, Shachi was one of the very few decent personality ghouls out there, he wanted Shachi under his command if it was possible.
If it did not work and Shachi decided to kill him, then just ran away.
But before all of that, the first thing he needed to do was hunt and replenish his body which was weakened from long-term meat absence. At least let his body go back to the point before he joined CCG academy.
"Alright, let's start." The boy stood on the top of the building in the 6th ward, looking down to the city below. Because of the existence of ghoul, normal people did not dare to wander around at the night and the streets would become deserted except in some entertainment districts. This quiet environment was ideal for ghouls to preying people, and for investigators to hunt the ghouls.
Although it was a long time ago Yorimitsu was a human and did not want to kill a normal human if it wasn't necessary (the orphan case was a necessary one) so he shifted his goals to ghouls and investigators instead.
He sat on the rooftop, and closed his eyes, using the enhanced sense of hearing and smelling to find a trace of fighting that occurred nearby. This was the ability that every ghoul possessed and could be improved through training. As a ghoul from the 24th ward which full of darkness, it was a normal skill he mastered a long time ago.
He stayed like that for a while before finding the target. His sensitive ears heard the sound of many humans shouting, the painful screaming, and the sound of broken objects. All of this told him that there was a fight going on. Yorimitsu also did not hesitate, he dropped his body down from the rooftop before rotating his body and stepping on the pipe outside the building to change his direction and head toward the noise like flying.
With his speed, he needed only a minute to travel across dozens of buildings and came in time to see the end of the event.
Yorimitsu reached out his hand to grab the window frame and hung his body from the top of the building, looking a the alley below.
In that alley, there were four investigators standing in an offensive formation. All of them have quinque in their hand, one with a whip, one with a gun, and the other two with swords.
Standing across them was a ghoul with kagune prolapsed from his back. There were many big wounds on his body. They can be healed with the ghoul's regenerating ability but that was the case in which these four investigators let him live.
From the situation, the boy could guess that this should be a planned operation otherwise it would be just two investigators instead of four.
"Getting tracked down and killed, sometimes even the loved one was implicated. How pitiful." Yorimitsu shed his crocodile tear. Although he said that this ghoul was pitiful he had no intention to save him or whatsoever. Just watching the situation and calmly waiting for the best opportunity.
The ghouls had been pressed step by step by the investigators and getting killed at last. A kagune that looked like a whip pierced through the ghoul's head and ended his life. His body fell down limply, his kagune disappeared along with his breath.
"Ha, finally it's finished" One of the investigators let out a long sigh as well as the others who had a relaxed smiles on their faces. Their tensed nerves had been put down after winning the battle.
Right at that moment, Yorimitsu bent his kneed and placed his feet on the wall before using it like a springboard, pushing his body from the top of the building into the middle of four investigators like a disaster from the sky.
"What..." The investigator at the back of the group let out an exclamation. He just finished the crusading task and thought about going home to take a bath, then there was a person appeared in front of him out of nowhere, this make him a little unable to respond.
Who am I? Where am I? And who the hell is this helmet guy?
"Could you please give me your quinque?" Yorimitsu asked. He did not wait for the answer but grabbed the investigator's wrist and exerted force to crush his bone and let go of the quinque he held. Which was instantly seized by Yotimitsu. "Thank you."
The qunique he got was a green low-quality quinque that resembled a katana, the weapon Yorimitsu was most proficient with, which was the reason why he choose to attack this guy first.
"Ahhh!!" The investigator who got his wrist broken screamed. His scream also woke the remaining investigators up. They stepped back to organize a new formation and find a suitable position to attack this new enemy.
"Watch out! New enemy!"
"Prepare a defense formation!"
Yorimitsu just wanted to find a new weapon, he was not in the mood to have a fight with this team and intended to do it quickly. He used his new weapon to slice its previous owner's right leg. This guy's wrist was still held firmly by this boy so he couldn't even run away and get chopped off easily.
The boy then threw this investigator to the other three, using the man's body as a decoy and messing up their formation.
He strode forward, and raised the weapon in his hands to attack the next investigators who used a broad sword that was almost two meters long.
"Damn you!" He was a little flustered when he saw an enemy in black clothes but still gathers his spirit and slashed a great sword horizontally, intended to cut Yorimitsu in half. With this kind of power, Yorimitsu's quinque would be destroyed even if he could raise it to block in time.
"How can you release such a heavy attack? Did your superior never teach you that it was too slow?"
Facing this kind of attack, Yorimitsu also did not bother to block it. He bent his knees and lean his body back as if slumping on the ground, letting the blade pass over his head then stood up again and stepped forward, swinging quinque from bottom to top, cutting one of the investigator's hands.
Then he gave him a powerful kick in the stomach that almost make him vomit, sending the second investigator to the ground.
In just a matter of seconds, two investigators were taken down, and the next two also followed their friend shortly after that. All of them had fear and resentment on their face because Yorimitsu did not have mercy on them. All four of them are either missing an arm, a leg, or other body parts. This will severely affect their strength in the future even if they could survive.
"Who the hell are you!"
One of the investigators asked with confusion in his eyes while trying to stop the bleeding. If the other party was a powerful ghoul that crush them with kagune then it's okay, how come this guy use kagune, and still looked more proficient than them?
"I'm a ghoul obviously." The boy said boringly.
"Lair! How could ghoul use quinque better than us!"
"That's because you guys suck, and who said a ghoul cannot use weapons?" The boy rolled his eyes. "Anyway, this is my debut, I need you to go back and spread my news. So rest assured."
Yorimitsu knew that killing these low-rank investigators did nothing good for him. There would be someone immediately replacing them, and their corpse would become Vashu's food.
So he made a simple rule for himself. He needed to bring the bodies back when he killed investigators, If he cannot, then did not kill, just cut some of their parts so they could not fight in the frontline anymore.
Doing something like this seems irrelevant, at most he could only do this to a couple of hundred investigators, and those investigators would just become instructors in CCG academy. However, if he could implement it on such a large scale that CCG could not bring the deceased body back, the food that Vashuu could get would be greatly decreased. He really wanted to see the face of his lovely relatives when they have a hard time getting their food while CCG was filled with disabled doves.
The four investigators' eyes became complicated when they heard he wasn't going to kill them. They felt lucky they could survive, and at the same time, they also wondered what they could do when their body became like this.
"Oh, I still did not have any alias so give me a good name. Not something like Helmet, that's such a lame name." Yorimitsu did not care about their emotion and kept talking. "Yes, if possible, I would like to have a cool name like Shura or the name of an animal because most of the strong ghouls are also named after animals. Oh, the name Riddle is fine too. It represents my identity which no one knows anything about it. What do you think?"
'We think we will give you the worst name possible such as Pervert Helmet or Shitty-Kun.' The investigators thought. Yorimitsu chopping them like dismantling a doll. How could they give him a good face?
But these are just their thought, they dare not say them out loud fearing that this lunatic would kill them out of rage.
"Well, that's it for today. You guys should retire from CCG after this. Bye." Yorimitsu waved his hand, thinking that he needed to go back and polish his book before it could be published. "And don't forget about the name. Give me the cool one!"
