Chapter 1378 - 975: Who Was the One Who Defeated Him...?

"What?"

The sudden new rule left Reiger, Shirinryu Ryu, and Urokoke Hekko all stunned.

"What kind of rule is this?"

Shirinryu Ryu and Urokoke Hekko were puzzled.

Clearly, they had no idea who had added such a baffling rule.

Only Reiger, after a brief moment of shock, immediately figured it out.

"Was it Itadori?"

This was obvious.

After all, only that guy would establish such a rule based on the idea of not wanting to kill others.

He had stated beforehand that he would unite those Poets unwilling to kill in the Tokyo Second Barrier and have one of them negotiate with the game administrator using 100 game points to establish a rule allowing the mutual transfer of game points.

In this way, based on the eighth rule of the Destruction Revisit—"19 days after participating or receiving points, if the points have not changed, the player’s technique will be revoked"—the rule would become obsolete.

If points can be mutually transferred, then points would always change, allowing those Poets unwilling to kill to avoid combat by transferring points amongst themselves. The death game of Destruction Revisit, which relies on Poets killing each other, would also lose much of its explosive nature.

If Knot were unwilling to see this situation arise, perhaps he’d appear to intervene—this was Itadori Yuji’s thought.

Now it seemed that Itadori Yuji had succeeded.

"Little Gold." Reiger turned to the golden insect Shikigami beside him and said, "Bring up Higuruma Hiromi’s information."

Soon, Little Gold, whose abdomen turned into a display screen, brought up the list Reiger wanted to see.

"Higuruma Hiromi, points: 001, change: 01 time, barrier: Tokyo First"

"As expected, he got his assistance."

Reiger nodded silently in his heart.

To add a new rule, Itadori Yuji’s idea was to seek the assistance of those Poets who already had 100 game points.

After all, before the new rule took effect, Poets could only gather enough game points through their own killings. If no Poet with 100 game points was persuaded by Itadori Yuji, he wouldn’t be able to put his idea into action.

Up to now, there were only two Poets with 100 game points.

One had already added a new rule, allowing people to freely investigate other Poets’ information: Kashimo Hajime.

The other was Higuruma Hiromi, who hadn’t added a new rule but had enough game points.

These two, the former in the Tokyo Second Barrier, the latter in the Tokyo First Barrier.

Itadori Yuji went to the Tokyo First Barrier.

Given this, this new rule could only have been established by him convincing Higuruma Hiromi.

"Good grief, did he actually pull it off?"

Reiger couldn’t help scratching his head.

He really didn’t expect that Itadori Yuji’s naive idea would find support and even achieve success, causing him to fall behind Itadori Yuji.

"Does that make me a clown?"

Mocking others for their naïve ideas, only for them to succeed before you?

This is a slap in the face...

"Alright, after all, he’s the original protagonist. It’s only natural that a protagonist’s naive ideas come true for various reasons."

Reiger quickly changed his mindset.

"Moreover, this new rule is also beneficial for me."

Reiger turned his gaze to Shirinryu Ryu and Urokoke Hekko, starting to stare intently at them.

The two were momentarily startled, then immediately understood Reiger’s intention.

"Little Gold." Shirinryu Ryu was the first to speak and said decisively, "Transfer all my points to Eric."

As soon as he spoke, Reiger’s golden insect reminded him that he had received a transfer of 77 points from Shirinryu Ryu.

"Tsk..."

Urokoke Hekko clicked her tongue disdainfully but also transferred all her points to Reiger, giving him another 70 points.

"Eric Mozart, points: 187, change: 00 times, barrier: Sendai"

Now, Reiger’s game points were nearly 200!

"This progress is faster than I initially imagined."

Reiger remarked slightly, then turned around and walked away.

Seeing this, Shirinryu Ryu and Urokoke Hekko spoke simultaneously.

"You’re leaving already?"

"Not going to kill us?"

The two seemed surprised that Reiger was leaving them alive.

"What?" Reiger paused his steps, glanced at the two, and said, "Do you want to die?"

Shirinryu Ryu and Urokoke Hekko remained silent.

If possible, of course, they didn’t want to die.

They’re not afraid of death, but since they’ve worked hard to be resurrected, avoiding another death is naturally for the best.

"In light of your cooperation, I won’t kill you." Reiger smiled and said, "But don’t blame me for not warning you."

"No matter what, this is no longer the era you’ve lived in."

"In this era, there are reasonably well-established laws and regulations, as well as basic peace and stability."

"So, hide your tendencies of engaging in mindless violence and refrain from bringing them into this era. At the very least, don’t drag ordinary people’s society into it."

"Otherwise, even if you survive and escape Destruction Revisit, someone will come for you to settle the scores."
