I draw cards infinitely in the world of anime.

Without wasting any words, Kong Yang took out an emerald from his pocket.

The moment Lucini saw the emerald, her eyes widened. Such a large emerald could fetch hundreds of thousands or even millions of gold coins if sold.

"What does it mean?"

"This is the deposit I'm using to buy the rest of your life. Like I said, the one thing I have in abundance is money."

"Looks like I've met a rich person. I'm so lucky."

Holding the emerald in her hand, Lucy's eyes practically turned into '¥'.

It wasn't that she lacked self-control, but rather that the other party offered her too much.

Kong Yang was quite satisfied with this. Things that can be solved with money are not problems. Kong Yang now had the right to say that.

Chapter Twenty-Two: A Centaur Village in the Dense Forest! (Bonus Chapter)

'Pfft~'

The shadow blade formed from the dragon's shadow tore the monster in front of it apart.

All around were countless corpses of various magical beasts, and Kong Yang was currently in a dense forest.

The reason for coming here is simple: to hunt magical beasts and collect nutrients for my little baby. Although the magical beasts are not very effective, they are better than nothing.

Moreover, Kong Yang is also collecting information on various rare treasures. If he is lucky enough to encounter some secret treasure, that would be a good option.

All around, numerous claw-like figures were carrying out hunting missions. This was Kong Yang's principle: wherever he went, he left no one alive, not even a single monster cub.

Kong Yang didn't care about this world at all; he came here just to have fun.

Since he could only stay in this world for a year, even though Kong Yang hadn't had the system for a full year, he didn't intend to waste that year.

The power system in this world is significantly weaker compared to "Dungeon Encounters" and "High School DxD".

Most importantly, in this world, Kong Yang has not yet encountered anyone who can truly be called an opponent, which puts him at ease.

Since I am invincible, I might as well do whatever I want without restraint.

A steady stream of ghostly soldiers crawled out of the shadows and began to wreak havoc on the surrounding area.

With these actions of Kong Yang, Kong Yang could clearly feel that original sin was resonating with him and echoing his own.

Since he is a demon king, he should not be restrained. He should indulge himself and do whatever he wants without restraint. That is what a true demon king is.

As more and more demonic beasts are slaughtered, Kong Yang, who possesses the authority of the Demon King, becomes increasingly powerful.

The souls of all the slain monsters became food for Kong Yang, while their corpses nourished the World Tree saplings.

Kong Yang's strength also gradually transformed during this process.

'Swish~'

Suddenly, a claw-like figure flew in from a distance and knelt down in front of Kong Yang.

A message reached Kong Yang. The ghost soldiers could not speak, but they could transmit messages to their master through the power of shadow.

"Hmm? We've discovered a village? And it's a centaur village?"

Kong Yang was immediately puzzled. "Damn it, whose centaurs are in the forest? Shouldn't they be on the grassland?"

What's going on in this world? It's so chaotic.

However, now that it has appeared, we can't let it go.

Led by Claw Shadow, Kong Yang passed through layers of dense forest and arrived at a village.

The village is now completely surrounded by claws and shadows. It's not a large village, with only a dozen or so households in total.

And all the centaurs have been gathered together.

Kong Yang glanced at them and was amazed to see that most of them were old, weak, sick, or disabled. There were more than twenty centaurs in total, with men making up half and children and the elderly making up the rest.

In the end, there were only three who looked young, but only one caught Kong Yang's eye.

"Who are you? Are these black-clad men your subordinates?"

The leading male centaur spoke sternly to Kong Yang. It's no wonder he spoke so harshly; suddenly being surrounded and having everyone gathered together was not a disgrace in itself.

Kong Yang glanced at him and saw that there was no magic power in his body. His strength should only be at the second or third level, which was too weak.

"I was hunting here and never expected to find a centaur village. This is quite an unexpected surprise."

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing, I'm just a little surprised."

"You are not welcome in our village. Please leave."

He gripped the spear tightly as he spoke, but to Kong Yang, this scene seemed utterly foolish.

'Swish~'

The shadow blade formed from the dragon's shadow flashed past, instantly slicing his weapon into eight pieces.

"When the weak point a weapon at the strong, it's a provocation. Even if I kill you, it's only right and proper, do you understand?"

"Damn it!"

He was furious and clearly loathed Kong Yang, but Kong Yang's strength and the menacing shadows around him forced him to swallow his anger.

Kong Yang ignored him and looked at the centaurs not far away, or rather, one of the female centaurs.

"What's your name?"

Upon hearing Kong Yang's words, everyone looked at each other, their gazes eventually settling on the most beautiful centaur woman among them.

This immediately stirred up a hornet's nest, and all the male centaurs glared angrily at Kong Yang.

She was the goddess of the village, and all the male centaurs were captivated by her.

Now their goddess is being stared at so brazenly by an outsider, which makes them furious. However, this anger is meaningless; the impotent rage of the weak is laughable.

"Sandra~"

Sandra Leah spoke slowly, but like everyone else, she didn't give Kong Yang, this outsider, a friendly look.

(P.S.: Does anyone recognize this name? It's from a popular monster girl anime series from many years ago.)

"Sandra Raya? That's a nice name. How about we make a deal?"

"Huh? A deal?"

"Yes, I like you very much. Would you like to come with me?"

This immediately drew angry glares from all the centaurs. Good heavens, this is too much!

“Damn human, are you trying to humiliate us centaurs? Sandraea would never…”

'Pfft~'

Halfway through his sentence, a black shadow flashed, and the centaur whose weapon had just been shattered by Kong Yang suddenly had its head severed.

Blood gushed out like a fountain, staining the grass around Jiang red.

"In this dog-eat-dog world, the weak have no voice."

Without even glancing at it, Kong Yang's tone was incredibly indifferent, even exuding an absolute aura of authority befitting a superior.

This move immediately intimidated all the centaurs. Even the male centaurs who had just been full of anger realized that under the threat of their lives, the goddess was nothing.

"Alright, let's continue our topic."

What would you like to do that's easier?

"Come with me, and I can give you everything you want: power, wealth, rights, status—everything. You can have it all at your fingertips."

"Then what am I doing here?"

"A centaur that is part of my collection, belonging solely to me."

This was practically an insult, especially for Sandra, who was initially furious but then had to admit that she was powerless to resist.

'Splash~'

Just then, a golden ripple appeared on the side, and a large number of gold coins fell out.

"Here are ten thousand gold coins. If you are willing to come with me, you can leave these gold coins to your village."

Kong Yangke discovered that these centaurs lived in dire poverty, no different from the impoverished families in remote mountain villages.

[P.S.: One bonus chapter still owed!]

Chapter Twenty-Three: Centaur Girl Sandra Leah! (Second Bonus Chapter)

Seeing the gold coins scattered on the ground, all the other centaurs' eyes burned with desire.

With so many gold coins, the entire village could live on for a long time.

Sandra Leah's gaze was filled with schadenfreude, especially towards the other two young female centaurs present.

In any place, between women, especially between beautiful women and ordinary women, there will definitely be dissatisfaction and resentment, because ordinary women will more or less envy and be jealous of women who are more outstanding and beautiful than them.

Sandra Leah is a case in point; because of her beauty and strength, the other two female centaurs are very jealous of her.

After the gold coins appeared, Sandra Raya also noticed that the way her fellow villagers looked at her had subtly changed. There was no longer any protection, only greed and fervor.

As the saying goes, "Troublemakers come from remote and impoverished areas," and when it comes to profit, nothing else matters.

"How is it, Sandra?"

"I can agree to that, but I have one condition."

"Say it!"

"I am not a pretty face, nor can I ever become one."

"So what do you want?"

“I will not become your collectible. I am just me, Sandra Leah.”

"Heh~"

Kong Yang immediately smiled, which pleased him even more; this was a spirited horse with its own ideas.

If I can train her, riding the centaur girl around in the future will definitely make me look impressive, especially after giving her some power.

'whoosh~'

With a flash of white light, a samurai sword was stuck in front of her.

“Take this knife, drip your blood on it, and you can become a knight belonging to me. How about that?”

Sandra glanced at Kong Yang, bit her finger, and a drop of blood fell to the ground.

She did not doubt Kong Yang's words, because Kong Yang had no reason to deceive her.

'Buzz~'

Then, the blood pact was signed, and the Zanpakuto welcomed its master.

Meanwhile, a wealth of information surfaced in Sandra's mind, especially the name and abilities of the knife.

The Zanpakuto Wabisuke is a blade that slays souls. After being released, it has the ability to double the weight of the opponent with each attack.

Kong Yang has two Zanpakuto. He gave one, Hyōrinmaru, to Shinra Tsubaki to help her improve her strength and become an ally of Sona in the future.

The second weapon was given by Kong Yang to Sandra, the centaur girl, with a simple purpose: to train her into a suitable mount.

“My lord, from this moment on, Sandraea is the sword in your hand.”

Sandra Leah chose to submit to Kong Yang directly. This centaur girl had a dream of becoming a knight, and now it had finally come true.

"Alright, come here. From now on, you belong to me."

"Yes, my lord."

Sandra left the centaur party and came to Kong Yang's side.

The other centaurs were all dumbfounded as they watched all this. A single knife had won over Sandra Leah?

Many of the other male centaurs were kicking themselves. If they had known this would happen, they would have made their move on Sandra Raia long ago. A katana may be expensive, but compared to Sandra Raia, it was a steal.
