--- Chapter 1 ---
Hayate crawled out of the dark alleyway. He couldn't feel anything at the moment because he used Kaijuu's creation too much.
However, he suddenly was welcomed by the unknown scenery of a dirt road.
"Huh? Where am I?" Hayate looked around with a confused expression because people here used Traditional Chinese clothes.
A carriage pulled by horse stranded the dirt road and moved rather swiftly, causing some pebbles to fly randomly.
PAK!
"Argh." Hayate's head got bombarded by pebbles, making him groan in pain.
He could see blood slowly dripping out of his skin and frowned at the carriage. "I'll remember you." He whispered coldly.
Hayate sat on the ground and rested his body near the building. He closed his eyes and tried to use Kaiju's cores inside his innate world space.
"Oh, I can still use it." He smiled because everything would be fine as long as he possessed the Kaiju Creation.
However, Hayate's smile slowly faded away because 90 percent of his collection got destroyed. He sighed because he was an idiot to use all of his cores at once.
"At least some basic cores and chimera cores are usable,"
Hayate used "Minor Regeneration." and healed his current body, which was unfamiliar. He could tell this body had barely eaten anything for a month and was malnourished.
"I was reincarnated to another world." Hayate slowly pushed himself up.
The minor cut on his head had already healed a few seconds ago, but his stomach growled violently.
Kaiju Creation is a unique ability where Hayate could create Kaiju cores from creatures he killed. He could consume those cores to enhance his overall ability or fuse them to create Chimera Kaiju.
Of course, there is a limit because Hayate couldn't use too many cores, or his body would explode. He has to strengthen his physical strength to handle the strain.
After years of tests, Hayate graded his limit by class and grade.
Kaiju's cores are graded from F-grade to S-grade, signifying their usefulness.
However, Kaiju's cores also have a separate class based on inherent ability, support/auxiliary, attack, defensive, or control type.
He also could combine two or more different classes, creating a hybrid type core.
A low-class core doesn't mean they are weak because some higher-class is useless for Hayate, but some low-class help him immensely.
An example of that was Gecko's regeneration, which consisted of the F-grade and support class. This ability barely strains Hayate's body, but very useful because he could heal his body without having felt like running ten miles.
Hayate also has to train his mind from getting devoured by Kaiju's core wild instinct. If he didn't resist Kaiju's wild instinct, he would go berserk and destroy everything around him.
"I need information." Hayate's eyes scanned through these people.
He barely had any memories about this body and was completely clueless about this world. A few beggars with ragged clothes suddenly pulled him into the dark alley again and began to beat him.
"Why are you running, huh!"
"I told you to steal some money, and you ran away!"
"You ungrateful piece of shit!"
Hayate used "Cheetah Empowerment." and dodged every incoming hit aimed at him. He hasn't changed drastically physically, but his leg has become leaner, and his eyes have turned cheetah-like.
The beggars stared at the boy with a dumbfounded gaze because they never knew he could move that fast.
Hayate released beast-like intimidation on them and caused the beggars to fall in fear. He lunged forward and slashed their throat with "Bear Claws." heavily.
They couldn't even blink and lost their lives in an instant. "Tch, I'm tired." Hayate deactivated his ability and stumbled onto the ground.
As they died, a few marbles fell to the ground and caused Hayate's expression to become solemn.
He crawled and consumed those marbles, gaining some language ability and basic information about this world.
It's been a while since he killed a human because the last time he did this was when a stalker followed Koyori for months. When he obliterated that creep, he gained some memories.
After that, Hayate never killed anyone besides wild animals.
"I see..." Hayate murmured with an amused expression.
"Such an interesting world."
"These people used this force called "profound energy." to cultivate their strength."
"Unlike me, who need to use Kaiju's cores to fly, they could hover in the sky freely like birds."
"Haha..."
"I, Hayate Kurogami, have decided."
"I'll conquer this world with my whole being!"
GRowl!!
"Before that, Let's eat something..." Hayate patted his stomach.
He checked the beggars' clothes and found some yellow coins, currency in this world.
Hayate walked through a dark alleyway and moved slowly to a small butcher shop, which sold cows, pigs, and chicken meats.
He bought some meat and silently entered the nearest forest.
After creating a fire and cleaning the meat in the river, Hayate didn't have a problem with raw meat, but he preferred cooked foods, so he roasted the meat near the flame.
Even though these literally were cooked without seasoning. Hayate was salivating because his body hadn't tasted good food.
"Well, let's eat." Hayate devoured the meat almost instantly, leaving some mess on the ground.
If people saw him in this state, they would compare him to wild animals in the forest.
Hayate was satisfied with his meal, but it was not enough to fully use his Kaiju Creation.
"I need a supporter." He summoned a Kaijuu, a small blob of slime.
This slime is called "Spy Slime." and is a support-class Kaiju with "Possession." and "Minor Brainwashing." D-Grade abilities.
He created this Kaiju with so many creatures based on fluidity in the past.
Another small-sized Kaiju got summoned by Hayate, which was an eagle with steel-like feathers and three eyes.
"Well, I can't summon more than two small Kaiju."
"Whatever, it's better than nothing."
"Onyx Eagle, scan this entire place," Hayate commanded.
Onyx Eagle flapped its wings and burst out of the forest, flying swiftly in the sky.
Hayate's eyes widened because Onyx Eagle's vision connected to him and whispered, "Woah... This place is vast, and it's only a small village in this blue wind empire."
He instructed Onyx Eagle to find the most influential figure in this village and tracked down the carriage that hit him with pebbles. Fortunately, the carriage was in the village's head place.
"Nice," Hayate called Onyx Eagle back and instructed Spy Slime to possess the village head.
As the Onyx Eagle and Spy Slime flew away, Hayate lazily waited in the forest, organizing the Kaiju's cores he has in his world space right now.
"Hmm?" Hayate smirked because Spy Slime finally possessed someone in the village's head house, surprisingly a woman in her late twenties.
"Hong Guan, 27 years old, seventh-level of the nascent profound realm."
Spy Slime transferred a more detailed knowledge into Hayate's head, and he nodded his head in admiration. "Interesting." He commented.
"Cultivation."
"Profund Energy."
"Profund way."
Hayate entered a meditation state and followed Hong Guan's memory about how to cultivate in this world.
"What's my profound way, and slowly but surely..."
Unknown to Hayate, all of his profound veins have opened naturally and made him absorb Profound energy in the atmosphere much faster.
He was a rare case because Kaiju Creation purified his body every time he used Kaiju's cores, leading to an optimal physique to cultivate. Hayate has obtained Heavenly God's Spiritual Veins.
However, he hasn't realized this and is slowly cultivating profound energy within his body.
A sense of breakthrough happened, and gradually Hayate opened his eyes, realizing the sky had turned dark. It only took him several minutes to reach the first stage of the profound way.
"I've entered the first elementary profound realm." He clenched his fist in awe because this strength was equal to an adult in his last world, or maybe even better than that.
"So light." He nimbly jumped a few times. "If I used this with Hercules Chimera... I might be able to exceed my record."
"No, let's not be greedy."
Hayate directly contacted Spy Slime and told Hong Guan to pick him up by carriage. He waited on a road, and a red-haired woman in a black dress greeted him.
"Young master, I'm picking you up." Hong Guan greeted Hayate calmly.
She bowed her curvy body at him, making some people in the street amazed.
"I want to take a bath. Let's go." Hayate clicked his tongue and entered the carriage.
Hong Guan sat in front of him and stayed with a stoic expression like a puppet because Spy Slime was still inside her. "Good job." He called his Kaiju out of the woman's body and let it rest inside innate world space.
Hong Guan's eyes shone because of her consciousness back, and she glanced at Hayate with a surprised expression. "Ah, young master?"
The brainwashing had worked because Hong Guan now thought of Hayate as her young master. Spy Slime placed "Hayate." inside Hong Guan's memories and brainwashed her belief.
Of course, she won't remember any specific detail because it was only minor brainwashing. Hong Guan only knew that Hayate was a mesmerizing individual to her.
Hong Guan is a single woman who took Silver Lake's Village head position because her father died in the past. There is no noticeable feature about her except unusual beauty in a small village.
Even though she possessed nascent realm stage cultivation, it was nothing special compared to other villages' heads near Silver Lake's Village.
As soon as they arrived at Hong Guan's place, a few maids welcomed Hayate and pulled him into the bath area. He was overwhelmed a little when they bathed and put on a robe for him.
"It's a cultivation world, so it's normal, I guess." Hayate sighed and slowly followed a maid to the dining room, where Hong Guan waited for him.
Hong Guan sat with an uncomfortable expression on her face, and she wasn't alone because a harsh-looking young man sat beside her with a pervy grin and obviously wanted something from her.
"I've waited for long enough, Guan." The young man whispered. "Why don't you just agree and become my concubine?"
"It's not hard, you know~?" He winked his eyes at her, but Hong Guan quietly clicked her tongue in annoyance.
If this young man isn't from a renowned Xiao Sect, she wouldn't be worried much, but his background is just too great.
Xiao Luo is the grandson of Xiao Wuji, who's one of the elders in the Xiao Sect, so his influence is enormous in this place.
Hayate, who received Hong Guan's memory beforehand, grinned inside and kicked the dining room's door.
BAM!
"Who is that!" Xiao Luo roared in surprise.
Hayate walked inside casually and responded, "Your dad."
"Young master, sorry for this unsightly scenery." Hong Guan was ashamed and lowered her face.
"It's okay." Hayate shrugged his shoulders. "Let me deal with him for you."
"What are you talking about, you little brat." Xiao Luo shouted while approaching him.
Even though Xiao Lou seemed to be a few years older than Hayate and had a better body build, Hayate wasn't intimidated by his presence.
"Heh..." Hayate observed the young man in front of him.
"Why are you smirking like that, huh!" Xiao Luo didn't like Hayate's gaze at all.
He clenched his fist and launched a punch at Hayate, who yawned and used a hybrid core.
"Thunderback Gorilla." Hayate immersed himself.
"Take my roaring tiger fist! DIE!" Xiao Luo used his profound energy and sent a punch that released a tiger roar.
SWOOSH!
"Shock Absorption." Hayate caught Xiao Luo's fist like it was nothing to him.
DRRMMM!
A few strands of electricity seemed to rush inside Hayate's body and charged rapidly.
"Charge."
Hayate's entire body bulked slightly and radiated with intense blue electricity.
He twisted his lower body and sent a powerful uppercut to Xiao Luo's chin.
BAM! BOOM!
A powerful shockwave occurred between them as Xiao Luo's body hung to the ceiling. He received a charged punch, literally similar to getting hit by a truck, and fainted immediately.
Xiao Luo's cultivation is at the third level of the "spirit profound realm." but he clearly couldn't receive Hayate's punch.
Hayate brushed the dust off his shoulder and commented, "Not bad."
