Chapter 288 Flipping Habit

Arriving inside the city again, it’s already late in the afternoon. He went in with an attire that matches the crowd while also draping a brown cloak draped over him. He also attached a normal unassuming sword on his waist as it seems those with weapons can walk or run without eliciting much attention from the surrounding because they seem ‘busy’.

‘Now then~! Let’s continue acting like a snob and observe everyone. By tomorrow, I should be able to understand a few of their words.’ He then took a peek towards the tower for a split second before immediately leaving the area, ‘So the peeping lady is still there… Does she has nothing better to do?’

Kisuke’s countermeasure against the peeping eyes is a simulation of a fake soul that matches average souls around. This way, he can cover his real soul without appearing ‘soulless’ by showing the fake one.

Kisuke spent the whole second day observing and listening to everything. He would also write down letters that he sees and note down where they were written to give further clues on what their meaning is. Kisuke also never stays in one place for long periods of time and would move to another location every hour while also changing his attire. And while he’s on the move, he would get some random stuff from the stalls and store it for future inspections. Kisuke would also lure thieves in the dark alleys to acquire some funds that he can use later on.

When it’s midnight, he exited the city again and looked for another random spot several kilometers away from it to make another underground hideout.

Kisuke only did some minimal data processing this time as he has to return today and wants to gather as much information as possible.

On the third day morning, his target is what seems to be a public library where anyone can enter by paying a certain amount and writing their name on a logbook. All this while, Kisuke avoided entering any establishments as he wouldn’t be able to avoid interacting with people, but this time, it’s actually easy for him to enter a library, bypassing the paying and writing process, and it should be normal to be quiet inside.

Kisuke arrives in front of a three-story stone building with a large front door. He first waited until the queue became a bit longer before queuing himself. He then checks if there are those randomly strong individuals around before proceeding with the next step.

Once there are only three people in front of him, Kisuke took out a small pebble from his sleeve and double-checked the surroundings. He then flicked it towards one of the bookshelves in the distance, hitting it on the corner and falling over which resulted in a domino effect and pushed over other shelves.

The woman on the counter, of course, panics and shouted something to one of the attendants. The attendant then exited the library in a hurry, probably to call for some help. Due to large sound the falling bookshelves created, however, many onlookers gathered to see what’s happening and using this chance, Kisuke sneaked in and directly went to the second floor when there’s no one looking before thinning his presence so that no one could easily notice him. If by chance that someone actually noticed him, he would just ignore them as he isn’t exactly hiding and therefore, he’s doing nothing wrong. And if he somehow violated a rule, he would just run away when they wanted to capture him.

Kisuke then set the modified body camera he prepared for this occasion and started flipping books in front of him. He could use this body camera to record the scenery outside and that would be easier for him. But easier doesn’t mean it’s not risky. Since he’s capable of detecting any camera pointed at him, be it electronically or magically, it isn’t impossible that such individuals also exist in this world and he didn’t want to risk being discovered by them as most likely they would be hostile if they knew that their image is being recorded without their prior knowledge.

Since it’s all just physical work, he started processing and learning the words he has collected while he flipped books and he only stopped when it’s already lunchtime. And by that time, he can already understand some of their words but he still has to go out and keep refining his understanding which he intends to do for the rest of the day.

Exiting the library, he approached the market place again and got some food to eat and keep. As he walks around, he noticed three particularly strong people and all of them are young girls. Two of them have the same skin tone as Yoruichi and black hair while also wearing similar revealing attires but with contrasting body types. The third one is a beautiful stoic golden-haired girl that seems to be curiously looking at a certain stall that sells fried potato.

He intends to ignore them but when he passed by them, a very drunk man is also passing by and in intoxication, he touched the butt of one of the dark-skinned women with long black hair and big boobs. The woman angrily shouted and sent a spinning kick towards the drunk man as she turns around.

Her two companions also noticed what happened and turned around. However, the woman’s kick range is so wide that the brown cloaked man is also about to get hit at the back of his head. All three of them noticed it and the enraged woman wanted to stop but it’s already too late. Thinking that they have to apologize and part with some of their precious healing potions made them sigh as it’ll be an unwanted expense.

But they were shocked when the cloaked man suddenly lifted his hand and caught the woman’s foot without even looking behind him. However, the woman who sent out that kick was in for another shock as she felt the man’s hand moved in a weird way and most of the force behind her kick was suddenly reflected back to her legs in a form of spinning force.

Before she knew it, she’s already spinning in the air and landed on the other side of the street. Her two companions were also looking at her with a dumbfounded expression. The first one to recover is the golden-haired girl and she looked back at the man who flipped and threw her companion. However, the man is already running away as he shifted through the crowd and a second later, he already disappeared from her sight. But she was still able to get a glimpse of his hair, peeking out from his robe.

“Whew~. That was close. That is one feisty lady. Though I can tell that she wanted to stop, it’s already too late when she noticed me. And before I can think it through, I already flipped her away instead of just dodging. I should fix this bad habit of flipping others around.” Kisuke sighed as he moves to another location.
