"Sir, this is the place where Zenin Kiyoshi and the others are about to move to. The curse users in the nearby area are also all here. Please take a look."
As a somewhat hoarse voice sounded, in the underground secret room of Zenin Ogi's room, a cold and sticky aura was constantly climbing up.
Zenin Ogi picked up the stack of information, flipped through it casually, and then said to the person in the shadow:
"Are there only these few curse users around? They are all useless. Can these guys really deal with Zenin Kiyoshi?"
The existence in the shadow listened to Zenin Ogi's complaint and knelt down directly. He pressed his forehead to the ground, and his voice became even hoarser:
"Sir, Zenin Kiyoshi is not a particularly difficult sorcerer. His personal strength is only at the level of a Grade 3 sorcerer at most. We only need to lure Zenin Toji away from him to easily deal with Zenin Kiyoshi."
Zenin Ogi did not speak upon hearing this. His somewhat gloomy face looked even more ferocious in the flickering candlelight.
Looking at the confidant kneeling on the ground, Zenin Ogi was silent. After about three or four seconds, he suddenly relaxed his tightly clenched jaw, his voice gentle:
"How long have you been working under me?"
The person kneeling on the ground did not hesitate in the slightest, and did not even raise his head, directly answering:
"It's been six years..."
Before he could finish his words, a sharp blade light directly slashed at his neck.
However, the scene of blood splashing that Zenin Ogi had imagined did not appear. The subordinate kneeling on the ground had already stood up at this moment, and the attack he had swung out was easily blocked by the other party.
Looking at the subordinate who was now looking at him with a helpless smile, a cold and stern look flashed across Zenin Ogi's face, and he asked sternly:
"Who are you?! Where is the real Yuichi? And what purpose do you have in approaching me?"
However, for Zenin Ogi's question, the fake Yuichi was in no hurry to answer. He casually pushed away the long sword that Ogi had swung over, sat cross-legged, a smile on his face, and looked at Ogi as usual. His voice also became androgynous at this moment:
"Don't be so anxious. I need to answer the questions slowly. And don't be nervous. If I really wanted to kill you, you wouldn't be alive now. As for the communication cursed tool [Rock Worm] behind your back, don't hide it. You can crush it now and see if anyone will come to save you."
Hearing that voice, Zenin Ogi felt a chill down his spine. He had a feeling that the other party was not bluffing, but really had the powerful strength to control all his actions at will.
However, even after realizing this, Zenin Ogi still did not show weakness. He knew that even if the other party was stronger than him, he was certain that the other party could not kill a Grade 1 sorcerer like him in a short period of time. As long as he dragged it out until someone came, it would not be a difficult matter to take down the other party.
So, his attitude did not become much more polite. Instead, it became a bit more aggressive:
"I don't need anyone to save me! Answer my question!"
Hearing Zenin Ogi's extremely tough answer, "Yuichi" was a little surprised, but he soon guessed what Ogi was thinking at this moment. Shaking his head, he decided not to continue to argue with such an idiot.
He only liked to chat with smart people. Communicating with an idiot, even for just a second, was a very torturous thing.
As a faint cursed energy emanated from his body, Yuichi now looked at Zenin Ogi, a somewhat exaggerated smile on his face:
"My name is Kenjaku, or you can call me Kamo Noritoshi. As for the original owner of this body, he's already dead. But there's nothing I can do about that. Who told him to hear something he shouldn't have heard? As for why I'm approaching you, the reason is also very simple. I'm also very interested in that brat named Zenin Kiyoshi.
Before I killed this person named Yuichi, I had already gotten everything you wanted to do from his mouth. I thought it was very interesting, so I came to you for cooperation."
Hearing the word "cooperation," the worry in Zenin Ogi's heart instantly dissipated a lot.
It seemed to be just as he had expected. Although the other party was stronger than him, he was not much stronger. Otherwise, he would not have come to him to talk about cooperation.
And Kenjaku looked at Zenin Ogi, who had obviously relaxed a little. Although he did not show any expression on his face, his evaluation of Ogi in his heart was even more contemptuous. To have such an idiot vying for the position of head of the Zenin clan, this family seems to be pretty rotten.
Short-sighted, malicious, low intelligence, weak strength...
He was truly a natural plaything.
This was Kenjaku's evaluation of Zenin Ogi.
And at this moment, Zenin Ogi was speaking to Kenjaku in a tone that was completely under his control:
"I don't know if what you're saying is true, but since you killed my subordinate Yuichi, I think you should give me an explanation no matter what. But since your and my target are both Zenin Kiyoshi, I can agree to your cooperation, but on the premise that you ensure Zenin Kiyoshi's death."
Kenjaku sighed. He looked at Zenin Ogi in front of him, and for some reason, a wave of disgust came from his heart.
He hadn't dealt with an idiot for too long. Sure enough, the arrogance and prejudice that this kind of fool naturally brought was still annoying.
The next moment, the signature Kenjaku smile on Yuichi's face disappeared. As a terrifying cursed energy covered Zenin Ogi's body, Kenjaku's cold voice also sounded:
"So, I really hate talking to an idiot like you. You have no choice. I came to you for cooperation only because my current identity needs to be covered up. You just need to listen to me and not have your own ideas. Can you understand?"
Feeling the aura that was almost about to crush all the bones in his body, Zenin Ogi finally saw the situation clearly at this time.
He lay on the ground, unable to say a complete sentence. He could only make "whimpering" sounds from his throat, much like a homeless dog.
Kenjaku patted the other party's head. The coldness on his face disappeared, and in its place was the gentle smile from before:
"It seems you also have a humble side. If you had been like this earlier, our conversation might have been much more pleasant."
The night was as thick as ink. In the basement of Zenin Ogi's room, a plan to clean up Zenin Kiyoshi was being plotted at this moment.
And on the other side, Zenin Kiyoshi was studying the few techniques he had acquired earlier.
Especially Suguru Geto's Cursed Spirit Manipulation, the surprise it brought him far exceeded his previous expectations.
