Chapter 1262: Chapter 852: Nameless Ones_2 Chapter 1262: Chapter 852: Nameless Ones_2 However, the strength that would paralyze an average Ghoul did not completely destroy the hulking and muscular Ghoul before them. Countless flesh and blood rapidly spurted from the wound, and in the blink of an eye, the arm that Duanmu Huai had blown apart was restored to its original state.

But for Duanmu Huai, this meant nothing.

“Not done yet!”

Duanmu Huai roared, grasping the Ghoul’s arms with both hands, then tilted his head back and lunged forward with force, smashing right into his opponent’s face!

“Bang!!”

Duanmu Huai’s forehead crashed against the Ghoul’s one-eyed mask. The next instant, it was as though the Ghoul’s head had been hit head-on by a cannonball and exploded, creating a fissure in its enormous body. Duanmu Huai then grabbed the Ghoul’s arms even tighter, his fingers digging deep into the creature’s shoulder blades. With another fierce shout, he ripped its arms apart!

“Rip!”

The next moment, the colossal Ghoul, like a heavy coat, was brutally torn in two by Duanmu Huai. Hot steaming innards tumbled out of the tear, scattering on the ground. Duanmu Huai then flung his arms, discarding the torn halves of the Ghoul’s corpse to the side.

“Good, done.”

Duanmu Huai glanced at the lifeless body, now reduced to pieces, and snapped his fingers. Only at this point did Mary come out from the other side, looking helplessly at Duanmu Huai.

“Mr. Duanmu, you’ve dirtied your clothes again…”

“No big deal, I’ll just change them when I get back.”

“I suggest you take a bath… That said, can’t you use a simpler method? Why must you always make it so…”

As she spoke, Mary looked at the blood and entrails strewn all around, her face expressing speechlessness.

“It’s become a habit, can’t change it in a short time. Strictly speaking, I quite enjoy doing this. The feeling of smashing someone’s head is truly exhilarating.”

“I can’t understand… Anyway, please go and take a bath and change your clothes now.”

“You don’t have to rush, you’re not a germophobe, are you?”

“………You’re not planning on going to a restaurant for dinner wearing clothes covered in brain matter, blood, and flesh, are you?”

“Of course not… Alright then.”

Duanmu Huai looked at his hands and clothes dripping with blood and grime, and frowned.

“I’ll call Investigator Amon right now and have them come clean up this mess, then we’ll go check out the restaurant Investigator Mahoru recommended and see if it’s really as good as he said.”

For Duanmu Huai, killing a group of Ghouls was just a matter of course. However, when Investigator Amon and the people from the Bureau arrived at the scene, they were astounded by what they found.

“What did you say?!”

Black Disk Commander looked incredulous upon receiving Investigator Amon’s report.

“Are you sure? Investigator Amon?”

“Yes, I’m certain. Among the Ghoul corpses found at the scene, there were Black Dog and Demon Monkey–also One-Eyed Owl… their identities confirmed, no mistake, it was them!”

“How is that possible………”

Despite getting an answer, Black Disk Commander still appeared to be in shock. Black Dog and Demon Monkey were once notorious Ghoul leaders in Ward 20, each of them dangerous enough to be classified as SS Class Ghouls. Not to mention One-Eyed Owl–that was an even rarer existence, classified as SSS Class. Logically, to defeat such Ghouls, even the Bureau would need to blockade an entire district, deploy hundreds of elite soldiers, and even risk losing several seasoned investigators.

Yet… the Tribunal had effortlessly killed three such powerful beings? Moreover, according to Investigator Amon’s report, there were no signs of intense combat nearby, indicating that the Tribunal’s prowess far exceeded that of these three Ghouls because only with such overwhelming power could they have engaged in such a one-sided battle!

“Where are the people from the Tribunal?”

“Uh… they said they were going to get supper…”

“Ha?”

Hearing Amon’s reply, Black Disk Commander was rendered speechless. However, there was nothing he could do. Although this cooperation could be considered a commission, strictly speaking, it was just that. The Bureau commissioned the Tribunal to exterminate Ghouls, which they had done–exceeding the Bureau’s expectations.

Initially, Black Disk Commander had regarded the Tribunal as a mere mercenary entity, but now it was clear that their strength far exceeded all expectations.

With that in mind, Black Disk Commander grew stern.

“Investigator Amon, from now on, everything related to the Tribunal is top-secret and must not be disclosed to anyone. Understood?”

“Eh? Oh, yes…”

Faced with the Black Disk Commander’s order, Investigator Amon was surprised but he nonetheless complied and ended the call.

“Sigh…”

After hanging up, Black Disk Commander lit a cigarette and then turned his gaze to the computer screen.

He had given Investigator Amon that order for a simple reason; after learning of the Tribunal’s strength, a bold idea flashed through his mind.

There once was a plan, a plan capable of utterly annihilating the Ghoul Clan, but it only existed on paper. The reason was simple: the Bureau did not have the necessary force to carry out such a plan. It had always been kept in a safe at the Bureau, considered fanciful thinking.

But if it were the Tribunal–who could effortlessly eliminate even SSS Rank Ghouls… perhaps it could be successful.

With that thought, Black Disk Commander snuffed out his cigarette forcefully in the ashtray.

However, as a precaution to ensure that Ghoul groups did not intercept the information, he decided on a rigid cover-up of all things regarding the Tribunal, making them the ultimate trump card for the plan… Only then could the complete eradication of Ghouls be accomplished.

That meant they would not receive any public commendation, nor would they appear in news or media; they would remain unnamed… Hmm, he wondered if they would accept such an arrangement.

With this thought, Black Disk Commander pondered for a moment.

Perhaps it was time to have a talk with the Tribunal.
