Episode 155: Congratulations, today you are officially an assassin!
『 "You, a youth with no past, no friends or family, no moral constraints, and no money, are perfect for an assassin!"
As Dai Bo spoke, he rummaged around in his pants, and suddenly, a golden light flashed.
" ⟦ Assassin's Quick Mastery Method ⟧."
A small yellow book was pulled out from Dai Bo's pants!
Accompanied by Dai Bo's lewd laughter.
The stall owner stared blankly at the blue-skinned chicken, a look of confusion on his face.
"Hey! Why did you drop all my chopsticks on the ground?"
The stall owner put his hands on his hips, glaring at Dai Bo as if he were an idiot, then turned to Seven. 』

[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "This appearance makes it impossible for him to be an assassin. He's too unrestrained!~" ]
[ Paimon (Genshin Impact): "How do you know what an assassin looks like?" ]
[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "That's from light novels and games, of course~." ]
[ Xingqiu (Genshin Impact): "So, light novels from other worlds have content like this?" ]
[ Raiden Shogun (Genshin Impact): "...(Expectant)" ]

『 As several large words appeared on the bullet screen.
⟦ Assassin's Essential Skill 1 ⟧
" Secret Infiltration "
"Check it out, my latest invention—the Shapeshifting Gaiba Egg!"
Dai Bo nonchalantly removed his glasses, revealing an egg engraved with the letter J.
"The first step is to concentrate and visualize what you want to transform into."
Seven was already holding the Shapeshifting Gaiba Egg in his hand at this point.
"Then, smash the egg on the ground and—whoosh—you'll turn into what you imagined."
Before Dai Bo could finish speaking, Seven threw the egg to the ground without hesitation and instantly transformed into a dog.
"But remember, it only changes your appearance; your abilities and original attributes remain the same!"
"It's pure genius!" Dai Bo exclaimed as the camera panned to a pixelated effect, highlighting his over-the-top self-praise.
"Don't hold back—give me some applause!" Dai Bo spread his wings dramatically, basking in his own glory.
"With this Gaiba Egg, you can become an assassin too," he declared proudly.
Seven crouched, fiddling with the egg Dai Bo had given him. After inspecting it, he muttered, "You heartless guy!"
"I've been working tirelessly to earn that million to cure your amnesia!"
Hearing this, Dai Bo furiously grabbed Seven by the collar, his cigar almost poking Seven in the face.
"Do you think I'm doing this for fun? Living in a mansion, driving luxury cars, sipping fine wine, smoking expensive cigars?"
"I'm doing all of this for you!" Dai Bo shouted before straightening his clothes and ignoring Seven's tattered appearance.
Frustrated, Seven hurled the Gaiba Egg to the ground. As the smoke cleared, a hen—identical to Dai Bo's species—appeared beside him.
"So lame," Seven muttered.
Dai Bo's face turned slightly red as he awkwardly looked away
⟦ Assassin's Essential Skill 2 ⟧
" One-Hit Kill "
Seven and Dai Bo, the two partners, lowered their heads, staring intently downwards.
Dai Bo chuckled mischievously.
Seven was sweating profusely from nervousness.
"You have to seize the moment!"
Dai Bo stared at Seven, reminding him seriously.
Immediately after, amidst gurgling water sounds, a meatball suddenly popped out of the boiling pot.
No sooner said than done,
Seven's fingers danced quickly between the chopsticks.
"Yada!! Hey~"
Seven listened carefully to Dai Bo's words and fiercely clamped down on the hot meatball with his chopsticks.
"Ouch!"
Unexpectedly, a bird's claw swiftly snatched the fishball from under Seven's chopsticks.
"Concentrate!"
"Meatballs float when they get hot!"
"That's when the meatballs are most delicious."
Dai Bo said as he popped the meatball into his mouth.
Before long, Dai Bo's tongue was twisting from the hot meatball. 』

[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "Is this how assassins train in that world?" ]
[ Tatsumi (Akame Ga Kill) "It doesn't look like much to me." ]
[ Bulat (Akame Ga Kill) "It's not exciting at all." ]
[ Might Guy (Naruto): "After all, it's about infiltration. It's a pity there's no manly combat at all." ]

『 ⟦ Assassin's Essential Skill 3 ⟧
" Escape the Scene "
As the screen suddenly lit up, several bold red characters appeared.
"Super Speed Little Flying Chicken!"
In Dai Bo's palm, a cute little blue bird suddenly appeared.
Seven eyed the little flying chicken with suspicion.
"Little Fly is no ordinary chicken; it's a flying chicken, you know."
Dai Bo, without a word, placed Little Fly Chicken on the ground. Seven quickly knelt, patting Little Fly Chicken's small head and stroking it back and forth.
"Look at its plump appearance, how can it fly?"
No sooner had Seven finished speaking than Little Fly Chicken suddenly stretched out a claw and went straight for Seven's crotch.
Seven was terrified, staring wide-eyed at Little Fly Chicken, who was gripping his pant leg, and shrieked.
In the blink of an eye, Little Fly Chicken carried Seven soaring into the sky, though the scene was rather awkward.
"My pants are falling off!"
"Help!"
Seven was carried into the sky by Little Fly Chicken, crying for help repeatedly.
On the ground, Dai Bo watched Seven gradually drift away and finally disappear into the horizon, waving his arms vigorously, a white cloth still clutched in his hand.
"Have a safe trip!"
Dai Bo waved goodbye to Seven with tearful eyes, full of reluctance.
⟦ Assassin's Essential Skill 4 ⟧
" Ruthlessness "
On the stone table lay a chopping board, and on the chopping board stood a super cute little raccoon cat, with a kitchen knife balanced steadily on its head.
Seven kept gesturing with the kitchen knife, as if pondering where to start.
"Meow, meow, meow~"
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Unexpectedly, before Seven could even make a move, the little raccoon cat took the initiative, wildly scratching at Seven's face.
Dai Bo, seeing this scene, was instantly stunned, not knowing what to do.
The scene changed,
A fish was placed on the cutting board. At this moment, Seven's face still bore the marks of cat scratches, and he stared intently at the fish before him.
As the fish kept flopping on the cutting board, Seven seemed ready to personally send this fish to the "other world."
Immediately after,
Seven's face was continuously slapped by the fish in his hand, and the kitchen knife in his hand clattered to the ground.
Dai Bo watched Seven get slapped by the fish tail more than a dozen times, and beads of sweat unconsciously seeped from the back of his head.
Faced with this situation, Dai Bo had no choice but to find an earthworm for Seven to solve the problem.
He had originally thought this training would push Seven and help him make a breakthrough.
Unexpectedly, with a "bang."
"Ouch! I cut my finger! Ah! It's bleeding! I'm not practicing anymore! I'm not doing this! I'm really not doing this!"
Seven accidentally cut his finger, covered his hand, and scurried away. Dai Bo watched the scene, sweating profusely with anxiety.
"Wait, wait a minute!"
To prevent Seven from really giving up, Dai Bo quickly chased after him and called him back.
"Alright, alright!"
"You are now officially graduated and a professional assassin."
Dai Bo, though helpless, still pulled out a graduation certificate and presented it to Seven.
Wearing sunglasses, others couldn't see his expression, but his heart was already blooming with joy.
Dai Bo had just handed the graduation certificate to Seven, and before he could even warm it up, he turned around and tossed it aside.
"Certificates are just superficial; real action is the way to go! Look over there! The Mijiang Restaurant on the corner is having a wedding. Go cut the bride's hair, then sneak out!"
Dai Bo pointed, his target locked on the entrance of the Mijiang Restaurant not far away. 』

[ Conan Edogawa (Detective Conan): "Can this, this kind of training method, really lead to crime?" ]
[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "No training, just going straight for it." ]
[ Oyama Mahiro (Onimai): "It feels like a ragtag troupe." ]
[ Keqing (Genshin Impact): "No feeling needed, it is." ]
[ Keqing (Genshin Impact): "This is even easier than the Treasure Hoarders' assessment." ]
[ Tartaglia (Genshin Impact): "Boring. I thought it was something amazing, but it's still like this." ]
[ Seven (Scissor Seven): "See, you guys feel the same way, right? I told you this wasn't reliable!" ]
[ Dai Bo (Scissor Seven): "Who cares? It's your fault for not cooperating with me!" ]
[ Dai Bo (Scissor Seven): "Anyway, didn't it succeed?" ]
[ ..... ]
『 Seven was a bit bewildered when he heard this task.
"This is a wonderful day for a couple to tie the knot, you know." Seven rubbed his chin, muttering.
"Actually, the groom's ex-girlfriend paid us five hundred yuan to do it!" Dai Bo revealed the reason behind it.
"That much money!"
As soon as he heard the ex-girlfriend's offer, Seven, without a word, swiftly pulled out his scissors and snipped twice.
"It's just cutting hair; it'll grow back, you know!"
As Dai Bo spoke, the wedding scene of Chen Jiajie and Li Sanjin suddenly appeared.
"Welcome, everyone, to the wedding feast of Mr. Chen Jiajie and Ms. Li Sanjin."
"The groom is handsome and dashing, the bride is gentle and beautiful; truly a perfect couple. But what's even more enviable is that they have been childhood sweethearts since they were young."
"Next, please join us as we revisit the warm and beautiful moments they have shared together."
In the Mijiang Hotel, the emcee, with a beaming smile, narrated the love story of the newlyweds to the guests. 』

『 "What's there to see? It's not as good as gnawing on a roasted suckling pig!"
A guest at the table directly stabbed the suckling pig with a fork.
No sooner said than done, the suckling pig suddenly opened its eyes.
Right in the center of its forehead, a bright "Seven" was clearly carved!
It turned out to be Seven, transformed by the Gaiba Egg!
Seven felt the chopsticks constantly poking and prodding his "body," and a surge of anger welled up within him!
He kicked away the person's hand, and the chopsticks flew out, hitting another guest squarely on the head.
The guest, who had been looking down at his phone, also noticed the abnormality at the dinner table and was about to turn around to check with his phone.
"A pig demon!"
As soon as he saw the roasted suckling pig posing on the table, he completely lost his composure.
Seven, without a word, wielded his scissors with both hands, and the two people were instantly knocked unconscious.
He boldly stood on the dining table, and as the turntable spun, he arrived in front of the bride and groom.
Just as he was about to cut the bride's hair, the warm laughter of the bride and groom reached his ears.
He looked up at the large screen at the wedding venue.
The warm scenes of the newlyweds' past made him freeze, and then he returned to his original form.
The pig nose on his face flopped off with a 'pat.'
"Why do I have no memories of the past?"
"What kind of person was I before?"
Looking at the flashing scenes on the screen, Seven's eyes were filled with longing for the past.
At this moment, he was filled with emotions, and countless questions surged into his mind.
After the video ended, the lights came on.
The emcee was about to introduce the newlyweds when a man in a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, tears streaming down his face, grabbed the groom's hair.
"Why are memories always so beautiful?"
Seven made a "snip" sound, and the groom's hair fell. The groom looked terrified.
He was so scared he didn't dare to move. The bride, seeing the groom instantly become "half-bald," was even more startled.
"Oh no! I cut the wrong one, sorry!"
Seven, realizing he had mistakenly cut the groom's hair, quickly apologized.
He even tried to press the groom's hair back in place, patting it twice.
Then, Seven silently extended the scissors under the bride's bangs.
"Snip"— 』

[ Paimon (Genshin Impact): "Did he just cut her hair again?" ]
[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "Not only did he cut another person's hair, but he's not even letting this woman off now." ]
[ Ryuga Banjou (Kamen Rider): "This assassin seems so useless, actually going to cut the hair of other people's bride and groom." ]
[ Tartaglia (Genshin Impact): "Interesting." ]
[ Theresa (Honkai: Impact Third): "After doing something like this, he should run away immediately, right?" ]
[ Dai Bo (Scissor Seven): "Yeah, I almost got caught." ]
[ ..... ]
『 The guests at the scene widened their eyes, stunned by the sight.
The bride suddenly let out a furious roar, and everyone else began shouting like mad.
"Beat him! Grab him!"
At this moment, Dai Bo was leaning against the restaurant entrance, arms crossed, lost in thought.
Suddenly, a series of fighting sounds erupted from inside the hotel.
Dai Bo felt something was wrong, turned his head, and glanced into the hotel.
"Oh no! Run for your life!"
Although Seven hadn't appeared yet, Dai Bo, without a word, took off running.
As Dai Bo fled, a cloud of dust rose.
Seven, panting heavily, rushed out of the hotel with a panicked expression.
Behind him, a crowd of people pursued him relentlessly, shouting threats.
After a few quick strides, Seven, breathing heavily, caught up with Dai Bo, who was running for his life ahead.
"Hey! Don't follow me! Let's split up!"
Dai Bo was stunned when he saw Seven catch up. He knew that those people behind were chasing Seven, not him, so he quickly spoke up.
Listening to Dai Bo's words, the two, as if telepathically, suddenly stopped in their tracks and then ran off in separate directions.
At this moment, Seven was running for his life, constantly glancing back to see if those people were still following him.
Lost in thought, Seven suddenly bumped into someone walking towards him.
"Ouch!"
With that collision, Seven was sent flying backward. 』

[ Oyama Mahiro (Onimai): "Is the person opposite a big robot?" ]
[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "What a strange guy, but this should also be considered a small robot, right?" ]
[ Dai Bo (Scissor Seven): "This guy is really amazing~" ]
[ ..... ]
『 As the two fell to the ground with a thud, a token flew out from Seven's body with a whoosh.
Seven looked up at the child-like figure in front of him and asked, full of curiosity:
"Huh? Are you from the Xuanwu Country?"
Seven watched the child stand up with a swoosh, noticing a white-haired old man with his tongue sticking out embroidered on his clothes.
"I heard that Xuanwu Country's technology can help people regain their memories. Is that true?"
The child turned to pick up the fallen instrument, while Seven slid closer and hooked his arm around the child's shoulder.
"I'm actually a robot from Xuanwu Country; my memories were implanted. But from what I know, Xuanwu Country does have that kind of treatment technology."
The robot walked along, answering Seven's questions.
"Is that token on the ground yours?"
It raised the instrument, scanned the token on the ground, and then asked.
"Hey, it turns out my token fell, but I completely forgot about it!"
Seven slid to the token in a flash, picked it up, and looked bewildered.
Just as Seven was trying to recall, a yellow light suddenly glowed in the robot's palm.
"Why are you turning on the lights in broad daylight?" Seven wondered, looking at the flickering light in the robot's hand.
"Records indicate that anyone holding this token is an enemy of the Xuanwu Country!"
"Kill without mercy."
Seven listened blankly to the robot's judgment. In an instant, a laser beam shot towards him.
"Almost lost my life." Seven leaped backward, deftly dodging the robot's attack. 』
