The Human Giant



With his speed, stealth, and aura that had become more subtle, it didn't take much effort for Yoze to grab a set of clothes from the fat merchant that sold somewhat exotic clothes. When Yoze saw the clothes he was left with, his face twitched as he didn't think he would be left with these options.

Since he had seen all the clothes from a distance and with them all tightly packed together, he didn't realize that all the clothes he wanted were too small for him. Even after shrinking himself as much as he could, he knew there was no possible way for him to get into them without them tearing.

So he could only settle with the clothes he had found that fit his current size and frame. Other than the fact that these clothes might be tighter on him, he didn't have much to complain about.

"When I get back, I should train more with the Vine Serpent. I had only had him for a few days, yet his inner vigor has already been extremely useful to me."

"If I can get as much inner vigor that the Serpent currently has, I might be able to become as large as it. Unfortunately, even if I can become a hundred feet tall using the Serpent's inner vigor, I will still be much weaker than just using my Iron Colossus Martial Formation." Yoze touched his chin as he imagined trying to create a Martial Formation using the Beast Hunter body cultivation method.

Eventually, Yoze sighed from defeat as he struggled to come up with Martial Formation that used the Beast Hunter body cultivation method. After creating Iron Colossus and experiencing its vast power, he tried to create other Martial Formations, but all his attempts ended in failure.

"Creating Iron Colossus took me quite a long time to figure out, and that is because I tried to create a body cultivation method instead. So now that I have experience creating one, it should be easier, but it seems that creating Martial Formations is harder than I thought." After struggling to create a Martial Formation, Yoze shook his head and focused back on his new clothes that cost him a small bag of demon meat.

"These three outfits are very different from one another, so I guess I will go with this one here. It compliments my current elegant aura." 

After selecting an outfit, Yoze used his incredible mental imaging ability to create an accurate image of himself. When he saw how he looked, he smiled as he felt he looked incredible.

He was wearing an all-black outfit with bits of sparkling gold that created a feeling that he was wealthy. His long pants were made out of some smooth material that felt like silk which was the same as the rest of his tight suit.

Whether it was his shirt, blazer, socks, cane, or that they had a solid base of black with some hints of real gold that popped out. When Yoze noticed that this suit even had several black metal masks and small whips inside its inner pockets, he couldn't help but wonder what this suit was made for.

"Now that I am all dressed up, I'm ready to go and find that Witch in style."

Once Yoze ensured everything fits him properly, he swiftly walked by the caravan and entered Justice Town before any of the merchants could get a good look at him. They could only see an elegant tall man walking past them in a hurry.

As for the fat merchant who had just unknowingly completed a transaction, when he saw Yoze rushing figure, he couldn't help but think that Yoze was an elegant man. He even hoped that before they left Justice Town, Yoze would come to visit his carriage so he could sell him some suitable clothes.

"This place hasn't changed much since I fought the Slug demon. It even seems more vibrant and active now that the sun is out." Yoze thought to himself and felt a bit of shock when he entered the town.

Just like he had first expected, Justice Town seemed to be an extremely active town and was growing. He saw numerous parents walking with babies in his arms as their older children played in the streets.

Even the elderly population, who had experienced the days when the town was just an insignificant village, seemed to be enjoying the vibrant life of the town. However, he did notice a few oddities about the town, like even though Justice Town was growing rapidly, the number of people in their old age was much lower than it should have been.

Usually, for a stable town of this size, the number of elderly people make up ten to twenty percent of the population. Even if the town was growing and had many newborn children, the percentage of elderly people in their sixties would rarely be below ten percent.

However, even though Yoze was simply wandering the streets aimlessly and casually looking around, he only saw 30 people in their sixties and above. And all these people didn't have a lick of death spiritual energy surrounding them, meaning they hadn't reached the end of their lifespan.

"For the elderly population to be this low can only mean two things. First, all the other elderly people died early and thus aren't part of the current population of Justice Town."

"The second is that most elderly people have died after becoming old. This isn't too strange since this town's medical field isn't as good or robust as New Swampscott City's or other older towns."

"What makes this town different from others is that a demon was overseeing its growth. And no demon would allow itself to waste precious spiritual energy just because it wants humans to live their lives to the fullest." Yoze's eyes dimmed as he could guess what had happened to all the old people the demon viewed as about to expire.
