Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan - Chapter 232: My targets are married women

“…where is this?”

Tamazuki opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar ceiling. He was inside a room that he had never been to before.

The room was like one that could be found in a vintage European house.

Moreover…

[Master, you are in the new world]

As expected…

Tamazuki realized that he was in a new world since the scent of this world was different from the one that he had been in.

As for what kind of world this place was, he wasn’t sure, but frankly, he didn’t care much since when it was compared to the danger that he had encountered before, this world should be nothing, right?

[Master, I am sorry]

Suddenly, Ava apologized with a depressed tone.

‘Why did you apologize?’

[Because… Because I almost made a mistake in my judgment…]

Yes, Ava made the wrong decision when he met that being in the world of One Punch Man.

When he met God for the first time, Ava told him to run away to another world quickly, but if he really ran away to another world directly, what would happen?

If he ran away, then God would gain the power to go to another world, and even rampage on various worlds that he had ever been, playing with him, torturing him, and even worse, killing all that he cared about.

That being loved to have fun.

That being was also cruel.

Tamazuki didn’t doubt it since that being was like the incarnation of a terror.

It was like a collection of malice in the universe.

Moreover, unlike Saitama, that could grow stronger without limit, this being… while it was hard to describe, Tamazuki felt that this being’s power was unfathomable. It was impossible to guess. It was infinite.

That being… wasn’t something with his current could do anything.

Or rather, was it even possible to defeat it?

No, he should!

When he thought about the humiliation he received, he knew that he had to do his revenge, devour it, and make it into his power.

‘It’s okay, Ava. Let that be a lesson for us since I also underestimate that world. I thought that with my power, I could live freely…’

With the power of Saitama, Tamazuki knew that he had gotten arrogant, but how could he not be?

The power he gained from learning Saitama’s ability wasn’t something that could be thought of by anyone.

If he wanted to, he could destroy a planet or two now.

‘Next time. Let’s go to that world again and devour it, Ava. Be my support and help me with my ambition.’

[Master…]

At that moment, something changed inside Ava.

At that moment, Ava really had become alive and knew what it wanted to do.

Helping him, being his support, and giving her everything to him.

For him, it would do anything.

It would no longer be a burden, especially when he trusted it, even if it had failed him before.

The frustration of its failure and happiness from his trust made it become even stronger.

[Yes, Master!]

[Ava will do my best to help you]

[Ava will help you devour that being and become God!]

‘Thanks.’

He sighed in relief and thought about what he should do now.

As of now, he was lying on the bed, and he could smell the lingering scent of a female.

‘One is older, and the other is a little girl?’

As a dog, his nose was his best trait, and he could tell various information with just a mere scent.

From gender, diet, health, and many others, he could tell all of that through a scent.

Yet, he didn’t pay much attention to the two of them since his mind still thought about the previous terror that he felt. He was sure lucky that he could run away before, but he knew that unless he gained a power similar to or a little weaker than that being, he definitely wouldn’t return to that world.

The danger of that world was dangerous, and he knew the moment he returned, he would be caught instantly, and the existence of another world would be found out by that being.

He definitely couldn’t return.

Nevertheless, many might be curious about how he could run away.

Still, even if he evolved into “Heavenly Dog,” he was a “Tanuki” before.

Trickery is his best skill.

Still, he underestimated that being and thought that he could buy time when he entered the core of the sun, so he quickly ran into the core of Earth before changing his race into a human.

While he wasn’t sure, the Earth was a special place.

Humans might be weak, but they have the most potential among all the races in the universe.

Still, because of this, that being had a hard time finding him since he had become a human.

Even if that being was omnipotent, it still needed time to find him among billions of humans.

Nevertheless, the real reason why he could run away was because of the memory of Boros and all of his subordinates.

It was impossible for him to run away if he stayed on Earth, so he ran away to Boros’s planet.

Fortunately, his bet was correct.

In the galaxy where Boros’s planet existed, he was given a chance to run away, so he used his ability to leave that world and ran away to a new universe that he had never entered.

Nevertheless, he was sure that with that being’s ability, that being would find him right away and, even worse, stop the entire time of the universe, playing hide and seek on a level that was impossible to be mimicked by others.

[Master, you have worked really hard]

‘Thank you, Ava.’

He had the urge to cry at this moment since he really worked hard to stay sane while being chased by that being.

No, he was already crying.

The feeling of being alive was wonderful, and he was so glad that he could be alive.

Maybe because of this, many might think of him as a crybaby, but… but this feeling… the feeling of being chased by the creator of the universe wasn’t something that could be described in words.

Or rather, it was impossible to describe, to begin with!

Moreover, if he didn’t have eternal life because of his transformation as a Demon Lord, he knew that he would perish the moment he ran away to another galaxy.

Yet, probably because of this that it was impossible for anything to scare him anymore.

Lastly, he got a good thing from that being, and right now, his body tried to devour it.

‘If I can devour it, then I can…’

He didn’t finish his words since he was sure that his goal would take a long journey.

It might even reach an eternity, but it was okay since his life was eternal.

Moreover, because of being chased by that being, time no longer moved.

Yes, when he was in another world, the time in his original world and all the worlds that he had been into would stop.

The time only moved when he existed there.

It was no longer ten days in another world meant it was one day in his original world.

After all, the concept of time in different universes couldn’t be just counted with such simple mathematics.

It was already in the realm that a mere mortal would pass away the moment they decided to learn it.

Still, he shook his head and thought that he might as well focus on this world, wondering whether his opponents would be cute like Nura Rikuo and Ayato Amagiri.

Hopefully, so…

Then, a picture of everything on this planet was shown in his eyes before he became confused about the city where he lived.

His expression suddenly became weird before suddenly the door of his room was opened.

“Onii-san? Have you woken up?”

He turned and saw a cute little girl with a twin-tail hairstyle dressed in a white shirt, red skirt, black knee-length socks, and a red bow tie.

Somehow, he felt that this little girl was familiar.

“Rin? Has he woken up?”

Then, he saw a woman in her late 20s, who seemed to be the mother of this little girl, seemingly looking at him in concern and also a little caution.

Yet, Tamazuki felt speechless since the two of them seemed quite familiar to him.

[Master, you are in the world of Fate/Zero]

Ava reminded him.

“…”

Tamazuki took a deep breath and felt helpless since he knew that his target would be a group of married women.

Sorry, it’s not DxD, but Fate/Zero.
