Chapter 101: The First Mission of the Soul-Hunting Servants
At the same time, others also awakened B-rank abilities.
[Flame-Flame Fruit: B-rank]
[Consumes spiritual energy to create flames, allowing the user to transform their body into flames or even become fire itself.]
[Swamp-Swamp Fruit: B-rank]
[Consumes spiritual energy to turn the body into liquid-like mud and alter the surrounding environment into a swamp.]
[Snow-Snow Fruit: B-rank]
[Consumes spiritual energy to transform the body into snow and create snowfall within a certain area.]
[Diamond-Diamond Fruit: B-rank]
[Consumes spiritual energy to turn the body into diamond, providing immense hardness.]
Alexander's peripheral vision caught sight of the six servants.
The fervent, worshipful looks they gave him, as if they were paying homage to a god, stirred no emotion in Alexander's heart.
Alexander put down the small spoon in his hand and spoke calmly: "From now on, you are officially my servants."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phones of the six servants lit up and chimed.
Alexander's eyes turned cold: "Go, kill everyone there."
The six servants heard his command, their pupils contracting as their breathing quickened.
Killing was something these people would inevitably face, and if they couldn't handle that, Alexander felt they were not worth keeping.
Hide-and-seek was a challenge set by Yamato, and now the next test would be a task created by Alexander.
For the first mission of the Soul-Hunting Servants, Alexander naturally took precautions, so Yvette and Yamato accompanied them.
The group got into a business vehicle.
Yamato started the car and headed towards the Moonlight Chamber of Commerce's villa estate.
Villa areas were usually far from city centers, and the Yang family's estate was no exception.
Ten kilometers from the villa estate, in an alleyway, Yvette placed her hand on the car door, and her spiritual energy spread throughout the entire vehicle.
As the car exited the alleyway, it had already entered a state of invisibility.
During this time, Yvette had been exploring the power of the [Transparent Fruit] and had finally made some progress.
Anything she touched would neither reflect nor absorb light, meaning anything she touched could become invisible.
Under the operation of her spiritual energy, Yvette expanded the range of the Transparent Fruit to its maximum, just enough to render the entire vehicle invisible under the cover of night.
Yamato's keen perception allowed him to infer, from the micro-expressions and reactions of passersby, what extraordinary thing Yvette had done to the car.
"No wonder she's a woman serving a god!"
Yamato thought to himself.
At the Yang family's villa estate, six Soul-Hunting Servants got out of the car.
They all wore masks and identical black raincoats that covered them completely.
Each mask was pure white, resembling the mask from an anime character with no face.
On the forehead of each mask was a large red number.
One, two, three... up to six.
The Flower Mistress activated her [Flower-Flower Fruit] ability, and pairs of pale, delicate hands appeared on the outer walls of the villa, forming a web-like ladder.
The other hunters easily entered the villa's interior.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!"
As soon as the six entered the villa, they heard barking.
Upon closer inspection, it was an unusual, fierce dog! This was no ordinary dog, as it had a pair of horns on its head! This was a demonic beast!
(The Swamp Mistress wielding the Swamp-Swamp Fruit is referred to as Swamp Lady; the Flower Mistress with the Flower-Flower Fruit as Flower Lady; and the Snow Mistress with the Snow-Snow Fruit as Snow Lady.)
The masked Swamp Lady placed her hands on the ground, and under the influence of her spiritual energy, a small swamp quickly formed.
Meanwhile, the Snow Lady used her freezing breath to turn the demonic dog's mouth into a block of ice.
The demonic dog was soon swallowed by the swamp, only able to make muffled whimpers as it perished.
There was no trace of worry or fear in their eyes; excitement gradually took over.
So this was what it felt like to wield power? In the darkness, the six Soul-Hunting Servants, clad in eerie attire and strange masks, moved like phantoms.
They knew exactly whom to eliminate first and whom to target next.
The guard in the monitoring room, watching a drama on his screen, sensed someone beside him.
He turned his head and saw a flaming arm gripping his throat, complete with scarlet nail polish on the fiery fingers.
The guard wanted to scream, but the flames incinerated his neck in an instant.
The Flower Lady walked in and stared at the monitor.
Every place visible through the cameras now had an eye growing, thanks to her ability.
This was the power of the [Flower-Flower Fruit]: as long as her spiritual energy was sufficient, she could grow any part of her body wherever she could see.

It looks like there was an issue applying the change. Let me manually adjust the text here in this window:
I will replace "Yang family" with "Divine family" throughout the text:
Now, the entire villa was under the surveillance of the Flower Lady.
The ensuing battle became much simpler.
The master had said to kill everyone here.
The villa estate did have some Awakeners; most were E-rank, with some at D-rank, and even one C-rank holding the fort.
But it was all useless.
They were up against Soul-Hunting Servants with B-rank abilities, strong spiritual energy, and professional training.
Dozens of guards rushed out from various parts of the villa, only to serve as cannon fodder for the Soul-Hunting Servants.
Flames, freezing air, and sand ran rampant in the villa estate.
The ground turned into a swamp, swallowing the guards.
The Diamond Lady's body shimmered with translucent diamond, acting as the shield warrior.
The Flower Lady, still exploring the combat potential of the [Flower-Flower Fruit], served as the eyes and ears, controlling the overall flow.
This combination was near-perfect.
They had warriors, mages, support, and control roles covered.
"What an incredible power this is!" the Sand Man couldn't help but exclaim.
"The Hungry Ghost Lord was right; the master is the only true god in this world!"
The Flower Lady's eyes shone with fervor.
She had a shameful past of selling her body and had seen many wealthy men.
But compared to the master, those men were as insignificant as ants.
Tell me, is granting B-rank abilities something humanly possible?
If someone could do that, wouldn't calling them a god be justified?
A D-rank guard frantically ran into a room where a man was crouched beneath a window, watching the scene below in terror.
The guard shouted:
"Captain! The intruders outside are likely C-rank! You need to act now!"
The captain's face twisted with bitterness as he glared at the guard.
"Shut up! Those are all top-tier experts! The Divine family has provoked a major power!"
C-rank?
He himself was C-rank and knew what C-rank was capable of.
Those six masked figures were clearly all B-rank!
The guard, at a loss, said:
"Then call the young master and young lady for help!"
The captain slumped to the floor, showing his phone.
It displayed no signal.
At the beginning of the battle, the captain had tried to call for help, but the phone and computer had no service at all.
It was as if the entire area was under a security lockdown!
The opponent the Divine family faced this time was unfathomable!
"Stay hidden here. Going outside means death."
That was the only thought in the captain's mind.
The noise outside subsided.
The captain's face was full of doubt as he cautiously peered out, seeing that there was no one left downstairs.
At that moment, his peripheral vision caught sight of something terrifying!
There was a woman's eye on the wall!
And why was it clearly a woman's eye?
Because it was wearing eyeshadow.
The eye was looking at him mockingly!
