"You saw us!"
"You saw us!
Led by the skeleton monster, all the strange monsters in the bus rushed towards Miko at the same time.
!!!
Miko was so scared that her limbs stiffened, and she stood frozen on the spot.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort that seemed familiar echoed in her ears.
Tenya didn't seem to make any moves.
But the strange monsters in front of him, one by one, as if struck by lightning, shattered and perished on the spot.
"Poof~"
The skeleton monster had half of its body shattered. It let out a mournful scream, but it didn't immediately dissipate.
"Oh? So that's how it is..."
"Did absorbing the life force before strengthen its power?"
Tenya looked at the skeleton monster in front of him with interest. It was able to withstand the Conqueror's Haki he had released.
"No, impossible...!"
"How can a mere human have such power...!"
"Could it be that you are from that organization?"
The skeleton monster screamed in horror.
"Oh? It seems you know quite a bit."
"Tell me everything about that organization you mentioned, from beginning to end."
Tenya raised an eyebrow, immediately becoming interested.
"Yoshida-san?"
Miko looked at him with a bewildered expression.
???
Yukino was even more confused the whole time.
What's going on?
Is he talking to air?
If it were just Tenya alone, Yukino might think he was going crazy, but even Miko was acting like this, which made it intriguing.
"No, I can't!"
"According to the rules of the Supernatural World, information about the extraordinary must not be conveyed to humans."
The skeleton monster shook its head, seemingly very afraid of some kind of power, thus strictly following the rules.
"Is that so? Then forget it..."
Tenya's interest in investigating for some information was just a whim. Knowing it or not didn't matter.
Besides, the bus had already arrived at the station, and they were about to get off.
"Huh?"
The skeleton monster was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting Tenya to be so casual.
"Then... I'll leave?"
The skeleton monster asked cautiously.
"Genjutsu!"
A red light flashed in Tenya's eyes, instantly dominating the latter.
After doing all this, he said to the stunned Miko beside him, "Let's get off the bus."
"Eh? Oh, oh..."
At this moment, Miko's mind was still in a daze, and her hands were still tightly holding onto Tenya's arm.
...
Yukino looked bewildered, indicating she couldn't understand what was going on.
Could it be that this is love?
She didn't understand at all.
Miko looked back and immediately saw an astonishing scene.
She saw the skeleton monster raise its scythe and fiercely stab itself in the body.
"Human!"
"You will definitely regret this!!!"
"Bang!"
Finally letting out an incomprehensible roar, the skeleton monster then vanished into thin air.
"So, so amazing!"
"Was this also done by Yoshida-san?"
Seeing all the bizarre entities destroyed, the fear in Miko's heart subsided.
Looking at Tenya, a hint of gratitude appeared in her eyes.
[Ding!]
[Detected that Yotsuya Miko's favorability has reached 75% (close friend)]
[Points + 200]
"It's just clearing a few bugs, it's nothing." Tenya replied calmly.
His heart bloomed with joy at the arrival of the system points.
"Yotsuya-san, did you encounter some trouble?" Yukino couldn't help but interject.
From her perspective, Miko seemed to be very afraid of something, and in extreme panic, she threw herself into Tenya's arms for comfort, regardless of others' gazes.
"Uh, I did encounter some trouble..."
"But it has already been resolved by Yoshida-san."
Miko quickly waved her hand. She couldn't easily explain the specific reason to Yukino.
"Resolved?"
"From my point of view, Yoshida-san just stood there and didn't do anything."
Yukino frowned slightly.
She sized up Tenya suspiciously, and finally her gaze landed on his eyes.
She mused, "The only suspicious thing is that pair of peculiar colored contacts..."
"Pretty good, right? My Sharingan!"
Tenya spoke honestly, focusing on sincerity.
"Are you looking down on me?"
Yukino rolled her eyes, convinced he was bluffing.
"Sigh~ Nowadays, no one believes you when you tell the truth." Tenya shrugged indifferently.
"Heh~ I believe you!"
"Are you trying to say..."
"That you used that... Sharingan to eliminate the invisible monsters?"
Yukino also let her imagination run wild.
"Eh! How did you know?"
A look of surprise appeared on Miko's face.
The other party clearly didn't have the ability to see those monsters yet could guess the general situation, wasn't her imagination a bit too rich?
"Ah? This..."
Faced with Miko's affirmative response, Yukino was momentarily stumped.
No, I just made it up casually, and you're actually confirming it?
"Yotsuya-san, you don't need to waste time with ordinary people."
"Yukinoshita-san is not the same kind of person as us." Tenya waved his hand.
Yukino retorted, "You were clinging to me not long ago, saying you wanted to be friends with me."
"You're really heartless, Yoshida-san!"
"Yoshida-san, were you really clinging to Student Snow-under?"
Hearing this, Miko's eyes moved slightly, with a hint of jealousy in her tone.
"I wanted to befriend her, but since Yukinoshita-san isn't willing, I won't force it." Tenya didn't deny it.
When he went out this morning, he did try to approach Yukino by all means, his goal being to extract the treasure chest from her.
However, after Yukino expressed a clear refusal, Tenya immediately gave up without the slightest hesitation.
It wasn't just Yukino who had this treasure chest. He didn't need to waste too much time on her at all.
Furthermore, based on Tenya's understanding of Yukino, this woman's personality was quite awkward. Her favorability is definitely difficult to increase, and it'll be hard to get corresponding point rewards.
It was clearly a thankless task, so why would he still bother with Yukino?
"Yoshida-san, are you... or aren't you..."
Yukino bit her lip.
She initially suspected Tenya was a "marriage candidate" specially arranged by her family to be by her side, and thus held a grudge.
She even imagined that Tenya would fiercely pursue her next. After all, she has always been very cute.
As a result, Tenya now directly drew a line with her, which instead made Yukino feel somewhat at a loss.
Since childhood, countless people had expressed their desire to be friends with her, but she believed that such superficial friends were just "fakes" and unacceptable.
Tenya was the first man to propose being friends with her as a "genuine person".
This caused a slight loosening in her closed inner world.
Perhaps if Tenya tried a little harder, she might not necessarily fail to completely open her heart.
However, unfortunately, Tenya had never been a very patient man.
If it works, it works. If not, move on to the next!
Who's going to humor you?
"Yoshida-san's life-saving grace... this is the second time."
