In fact, even if she is not in Mihong, in some more chaotic countries, as long as Maki wants to go for a walk at night, Yuzumi Yuya will still agree and accompany her.
This is the calmness of Wu MAX and the cat owner.
Before, just Wu MAX was enough for him to calmly carry a katana and search the streets for spirits of "unknown combat power" and "unseen" spirits.
If there is a bad guy now who is armed with a knife or a gun, and he is too bullying with a knife, and he comes out with a gun to rob people of their money and rape them, then Yuzumi Yu will use the "Shadowless Stone" to stop the other party's atrocities.
The adolescent boy is fantasizing about a passionate battle again.
In fact, no one came to disturb them at all.
When he talked about fighting, he thought of Ling, and when he thought of Ling, he thought of the British girl who came to chat with him the day before yesterday.
"Maki, have you ever heard of vampires?" he asked the eldest lady beside him.
As the top group in Tokyo, the top group in the pyramid, asking the other party for intelligence is undoubtedly the right choice.
"Vampires?" Ikema Maki pondered, "Does Yuu want material about vampires?"
"Hmm..." The senior student seemed to have no idea.
That's true. After all, the senior is just a student, and the current head of the Ikema family is still the lady.
Should I tell my senior?
After thinking about it, Yuzumi Yu denied it.
Blood day, it sounds dangerous, vampire, it sounds dangerous.
There was no need to involve Maki. He could just contact the British girl to get the information later.
But then again, if Zhenji knew about this, it would be hard to say who is more dangerous, the senior or the vampire, in Mihong's territory.
How powerful are thermal weapons?
How strong is the family's power?
At least within the territory of Mihong, Yuzumi Yu felt that if the Ikema family wanted to find someone, no one would be able to hide, and it would be no problem to sink the vampire into Tokyo Bay.
That's totally unnecessary.
In Yuzumi Yu's opinion, vampires are rare animals.
In order to prevent the system from saying something "treasonous", he blocked the other party first, and then thought - after all, becoming a vampire is much harder than winning the lottery.
You can win the lottery countless times, but after being infected by a vampire, you only have one chance, either life or death.
"I've just been interested in this kind of work lately." The boy smiled.
Mihong also has many works about vampires, such as the anime "Seraph of the End" adapted from the comics, which Yuzumi Yu has seen before.
"Um."
A gentle breeze blew in the night.
It is still as hot as ever. Even though the temperature drops at night, it is not much lower. It is still acceptable in the suburbs.
The senior student was going to have a competition in two days, so the two of them went back not long after leaving.
But Maki couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.
Yuzumi Yu thought of a way for the other party, "I have a very powerful way to fall asleep."
"What?"
The curtains were closed and the room was pitch dark.
"Like in the afternoon." The boy leaned over and buried his head in the other's snow-white neck.
Ikema Maki raised her head slightly and said, "Twice."
"You can never have too much with Maki."
"I'm afraid you can't bear it."
"?"
???
The senior's soft and gentle voice made Yuzumi Yu pick her up without saying a word, get out of bed, and walk towards the room they would be in that afternoon.
"What?" The cute girl in his arms.
"Don't even think about sleeping tonight."
Ikema-senpai was snickering and said amusedly, "I can't stand it."
"You have to bear it."
The final battle ended with Yuzumi Yu releasing three ultimate moves.
As for how many times Zhenji released his ultimate move?
I didn't count them carefully, I can't count them all.
——Maki uses her ultimate as a basic attack.
After taking a bath in the bathtub, I went to bed and wrapped myself in the quilt. The air conditioner was blowing cold air, and Yuzumi Yu turned it to the right temperature.
Maki's habit of putting her legs on other people couldn't be changed even when she was already fast asleep. But not long after she lay in bed, she would wrap her whole body around him again, and her smooth long legs would be on him again.
"..." Yuzumi Yu gently took the other's legs.
After a while, Maki, who was still sleeping, put it up again.
Put it down again.
Put it up again.
After several times, Maki seemed to be woken up by him. She hugged him tightly, and buried her little head in his chest, making a coquettish sound of "hmm~".
This is a very interesting thing about sleeping with the senior sister. If you don't let her cross your legs, she will really wake up, and then half asleep and half awake, she will keep nudging him and acting coquettishly.
Zhenji didn't wake up in a grumpy state, just as gently as the way she was woken up that morning.
"Okay, okay." The young man smiled and rubbed the other's head, "I'll give it to you."
The senior student then stopped her movements and then naturally put her legs up.
Slowly suppressing his smile, he hugged the person in his arms.
I always laugh a lot when I'm with Maki. Maybe it's not that I don't like to laugh, just like no one hates a smile, it's just that there was nothing worth laughing about in the past.
In other words, someone worth laughing at.
Just like cherry blossoms only bloom when the season is right, seagulls only fly over the sea when there is food.
Only when the weather is clear can you see the blue sky and the white clouds with clear edges.
[Party Level 2]
[Obtain mysterious items]
[Sleeping Eye Mask: Good Night, Sweet Dreams]
Gently place the blindfold over the person's head and pull it down over the eyes.
Although the mysterious item only lasts for one hour, items like this one that induce deep sleep can last until the moment you open your eyes.
Because once you enter that deep sleep mode, even if the eye mask loses its effect, you will not exit deep sleep. As long as no one disturbs you in the middle, you can continue until you wake up.
Yu Zui You, who has tried it personally, said that it works very well.
At dawn, the young man still gets up early and does morning exercises every day without fail.
Sometimes he would set the alarm for fear of oversleeping, but when it came to sleeping with others, well... it seemed like he had only slept with Minako and the senior.
--recent.
When he sleeps with others, he relies solely on his biological clock to get out of bed.
In fact, even if he sets the alarm, he will sometimes wake up earlier than the alarm, always opening his eyes a few minutes before the alarm goes off, and then turning off the alarm...
Jogging in the morning on the avenue, the dim light of dawn was reflected in the sky, and the surrounding was the wilderness of the suburbs. The night breeze could still blow through his hair.
It has a rural feel.
The rural areas of Mihong are very clear, much clearer than the cities. The main features are clear, spacious and clean.
A clean environment always makes people feel comfortable both physically and mentally.
After breakfast, go back and take a shower.
The senior student had a weird sleeping posture, hugging the quilt with one of her long white legs resting on the quilt. She moved the other person's legs away, pulled the quilt out of her arms, and Yuzumi Yu curled up in it.
Continue to take a nap.
Morning exercises are morning exercises, but you still need to get enough sleep.
It's only during the holidays and in the summer that he gets up so early.
If he has to go to school, no matter when the sun rises, he will get up at seven o'clock without fail, because he can go to school just after morning exercise and breakfast.
At about eight o'clock, Yuzumi Yu was still sleeping, but he vaguely felt someone sitting on him.
This dream is very real.
With a beautiful figure and soft touch, at some point, he will ascend to heaven and become a Buddha.
No desire, no request, no matter.
It was just the warm touch between the lips and the intense wetness that made Yuzumi You open his eyes.
Ikema Maki is right before my eyes...
Their eyes met.
A pair of eyes as clear as the blue sea and sky.
The other pair of eyes were like a vast ocean of spring water, soft and moist.
"…"
Maki was still sitting on him, leaning down, their lips pressed tightly together.
Realizing something, Yuzumi Yu quickly held the other person's waist and was about to speak, but Maki knew what he was going to say and whispered first, "It's safe during this time."
After a moment of hesitation, the young man said, "That won't work either."
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be prepared for the worst. What if? What if one person becomes two?
It's not impossible, it's just that the timing is not right now.
"It's okay. If you're worried, I can take medicine."
"..." Asking the senior to take medicine or something like that is too much, Yuzumi Yu cannot agree to it.
But looking at the misty look in the senior sister's eyes and the saliva that has not dried from the corners of her mouth to her chin...she seems to be very comfortable?
"What does it feel like?" The young man pressed the back of the other person's head and gently stroked his hair.
"It's very warm, very warm." Maki replied.
This is indeed a first time experience.
Before, I either went outside or used an umbrella to block the rain.
Looking at Maki's condition, she is so enthusiastic even in the morning. The effect of the [Mysterious Item] is really good.
The young man turned the tables and opened a drawer beside him to take out something.
"What a shame about this room," he said.
"The room isn't important." Maki put her arms around the boy's neck.
Sweep away everything in its path.
...
Continue taking a shower.
How many baths did you take yesterday and today?
It's been several days since I last took a shower.
While taking a bath, Maki's little feet started moving again.
The expensive oil made the pair of white and rosy little feet shine with a watery luster, just like a polished jade, smooth and tender. The nails were left a little longer, but trimmed very beautifully.
Perfect.
A perfect pair of feet.
I have to say that Maki's talent in this area is even better than in Kyudo. Perhaps it's because practice makes perfect?
"That's amazing, Maki." The boy smiled.
"Yuu is amazing too."
Not worth mentioning.
I just took more showers these past two days.
Glancing at the system.
[Body: A (9th Life Cat Owner: 9)]
The strength of the cat owner and the strength accumulated through years of training.
Not worth mentioning.
Unlike most people who feel exhausted after indulging themselves in excessive activities, Yuzumi Yu only feels refreshed and invigorated.
Not worth mentioning.
After washing Maki's feet, they both soaked in the bathtub.
Kneading the other's outstretched feet, the boy smiled and said, "Even the nails are so perfect?"
"I took good care of it."
"?" There's really no need.
"You likes it very much." Senior sister Ikema smiled with lowered eyebrows.
"…That's not the case."
There is just a topic recently, which is about "Is it easy to use?"
"Then why is You holding my legs?"
"I'm just concerned. Aren't your feet sore after being like that for so long?" Massaging his Maki's feet is also proof that he is gradually becoming gentler!
"That's great Yuu."
If you think he's a good person, please forget about the fireworks festival, senior. Please.
After lunch, the two took a car to the city center of Yonago.
Yonago City, Tottori Prefecture, is one of the important transportation hub cities in San'in, and all trains passing through it.
However, as one of the more underdeveloped prefectures in Japan, Tottori is different from Tokyo, where every inch of land is valuable and the population is dense. The streets here are wide and quiet.
Even in the most prosperous city center, there are no tall buildings, giving it a rural feel.
It's nice that the National Kyudo Championship is held here.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the bustling city, players can better focus on the competition before the game.
If you want to know what is worth seeing in Tottori Prefecture, Conan Town is a good choice.
If you want to know what's worth visiting near Yonago, head to Sakaiminato, the city of monsters. It only takes 45 minutes and costs 300 yen.
It only takes 30 minutes and costs 500 yen to get to Matsue, the Shimane Prefecture government office.
Including Mihong's most famous art museum, Yasugi, where the Adachi Museum of Art is located, is only one stop away from Yonago, or a few minutes' drive.
It is indeed a transportation hub city with a superior geographical location.
They checked into a hotel in the city. In the afternoon, Yuzumi Yu practiced piano on the balcony, while Maki practiced Kyudo in the spacious living room.
The boy didn't practice piano much yesterday, and the senior girl didn't practice kyudo at all yesterday.
Both of them have something to do and don't disturb each other.
Only occasionally—
"Yuu, do you want some ice cream?"
"Hey, do you have strawberry ice cream?"
The senior student, wearing her Kyudo uniform, ran to the refrigerator and took out two cups of strawberry ice cream.
"grateful."
This looked like it had been prepared long ago, and it was obvious that it was premeditated.
Another while passed.
"Yuu, do you want some watermelon?"
"good."
Although I am not very fond of watermelon, it is better not to refuse at this time. Looking at the senior sister who ran to cut the watermelon, if I refuse, even if it is just for the reason of "I don't want to eat it now",
The other party will be a little disappointed.
The watermelon was cut into small pieces. Only Maki could treat him by having the eldest lady cut the watermelon for him personally, right?
Kyoko...wait, why mention Kyoko?
Putting aside all distractions, Yuzumi Yu took the fork handed to him.
He forked a piece into his mouth, and Maki knelt beside him and looked at him, "How is it?"
"It's delicious." The boy chewed the watermelon, the flesh was full of juice, "very sweet."
After hearing the boy's evaluation, the senior student took a piece to taste, then nodded with satisfaction, "Very sweet."
In the evening, the two sat in the living room playing games.
The senior student bought him a limited edition game console. She had mentioned it when they were video chatting on Line before.
Yuzumi Yu had no desire for this kind of thing. Even if he did, he had only played with it through Tateno before.
Because Tateno likes to buy some game consoles.
Unexpectedly, he now owns many types of game consoles, including this limited edition that has not yet been released.
Although I don't have much desire, it doesn't mean I'm not moved at all. It would be a lie to say that I'm not moved. Boys always have some very strange desire to collect.
Just like Tateno likes to buy CDs and Furui likes to buy photo albums.
Besides, who can resist a display cabinet filled with all kinds of game consoles? Who can resist a limited edition game console that has not yet been released?
What does it take to go from having no collection to a cabinet full of collections? All it takes is a lady who keeps giving gifts.
"How is it?" Maki, wearing white socks and with her legs curled up, knelt on the sofa, watching the boy fiddling with the game console in his hand.
Yuzumi Yu's comment after the trip was, "It was fantastic."
There are some new features and things that are very novel and interesting.
"As long as Yuu likes it," Maki said with a soft smile.
Collection +1.
This game console, which has not yet been released, is definitely the top one among the game consoles that Maki has given him so far.
If Tateno and Furui saw this, they would definitely drool with envy.
Holding Maki beside him, Yuzumi Yu played games while the senior watched him play.
How does it feel?
All operations are watched.
All his actions were under the eyes of his senior.
How does it feel?
It felt like all the highlights of my games were being seen, just like when you are the only one left on your team in Go, and your four teammates are watching you win the incredible endgame.
For him, a cat owner, no matter how difficult the game is, he can play it very well even if it is his first time.
"You is amazing."
"Not worth mentioning."
...
"The damage is so low."
"This is how you beat a boss above your level."
...
"Orange suit!"
"I'm rich!"
...
"This boss gives a lot of experience."
"Because I killed someone above my level."
"You are amazing." Maki raised her little head, her charming peach blossom eyes staring at his profile, "Give me a kiss, You."
Yuzumi Yu came over.
"Hmm~"
Time passed slowly, and the two of them huddled on the sofa playing games. To be precise, the boy was playing and the senior was watching.
[Event "Blood Day" Phase Update]
The sudden sound of the system made Yuzumi Yu pause his fingers, but he immediately started to operate smoothly again.
[Blood Day: A kyudo prodigy has emerged, unwaveringly winning the individual competition at this National Kyudo Championship. Amelia, having obtained intelligence, has arrived in Yonago City.]
It didn't matter much before Yuzumi Yu, there is never a shortage of geniuses in the world.
It was only the second half that made him frown slightly.
Amelia came to Yonago?
Why is that guy still haunting me?
Connecting these two paragraphs, doesn't it mean that Amelia came to Yonago for that archery genius?
Why is she looking for that guy?
Thinking about the previous contact, she seemed to be planning something.
A bloody day? Let the holy light shine upon the earth? Let the bloody day descend?
If this isn't a cult, what is?
The classic riddler, the classic one of looking for people to "preach", and the people he finds are all very valuable.
If the other party had not also been dealing with spirits, he would have labeled them as a "cult".
After all, no matter who hears the word "vampire" and those childish words, they will think that the other party is a villain.
But then again, is it really a good thing that someone is working with him to deal with the spirit?
not necessarily.
Aren't you here to steal business?
He gets rewards and evolution points for destroying spirits, but what does the other party get? It seems that the other party is just trying to protect himself. If he can't gain anything, then destroying the spirit for him is the most cost-effective way.
However, the other party can possess "true eyes" - the ability to see spirits, and can live to grow up and become a vampire. She must know a lot about spirits.
I definitely know more than him.
But he also has things that the other party doesn't understand.
For example, a shrine, has the other person ever been to a shrine?
Once you see that thick black fog, do you really dare to go in?
Also, if you go in and meet a spirit, can you really come out?
I had more and more things to think about, like branches spreading out endlessly... Finally, the branches closed in, and no matter how much I thought about it, it would not be as good as meeting that guy again.
I had originally planned to look for Amelia after a while, but she happened to be in Yonago City right now, and was about to go to the National Kyudo Competition to "recruit" talents.
Let's just meet here.
Yuzumi Yu handed the game console in his hand to Maki, and then hugged her and taught her how to play.
In fact, there is no need to teach him much. Maki often plays games with him and is very familiar with some of the operations.
After a while, the boy asked, "Maki, are there any strong opponents in this National Kyudo Tournament?"
"Hmm..." Ikema Maki pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, Sato-senpai from the Aozora Private School in Sapporo, Hokkaido, is a very powerful master."
oh?
Is it him?
"How powerful is it?" Yuzumi Yu's hands began to move around.
"Hmm~" the senior said while playing the game, "Watching his games and training videos, both his form and accuracy are amazing."
"Is it always accurate?"
"almost."
"What about you, Maki? Are you sure you can defeat him?"
"If I perform well..."
The boy rested his chin on the girl's shoulder and said calmly, "You have so little confidence, Maki."
"Hmm~" Ikema Maki's breathing became heavier, "I don't have the same Kyudo skills as Yu..." When she said this, she felt the boy's grip on the 'little ball' increase.
She moaned softly, quickly held down the other person's hand that was causing trouble, and turned back with a coquettish look.
It seems to be saying - haven't you had enough fun yet, You?
Because the senior sister's face has a cold attribute, she looks reluctant and helpless at this moment.
——Even though I feel disgusted, I can only let others do what they want.
This feeling.
Is this the charm of a cool look with peach blossom eyes?
Yuzumi Yu smiled faintly and withdrew his hand, "Maki, I no longer have any aspirations in martial arts, but when it comes to education, you make me feel like a failure."
As expected, I received a gentle and coquettish look.
"Eighteen-year-old world number one, hard work alone is useless, You..."
Yuzumi Yu agrees with Maki's statement. If hard work is useful, what is the point of having a genius?
If hard work is effective, then technology in all areas will grow rapidly, instead of relying solely on a few geniuses to drive epoch-making progress.
A genius's efforts in one night may be equivalent to an ordinary person's lifetime efforts.
"But hard work still helps," the boy said.
The two efforts are different. The former is an effort to break through the upper limit, and the latter is an effort to make progress.
It's like the difference between being stuck at level 100 and wanting to move up, and being stuck in the level 1 to 100 range.
"You works hard."
"Not worth mentioning."
"Hmm~ what?"
"I also wanted to ask what you were doing, senior." referring to Maki's sudden attack.
"You're teasing me so hard."
"This is a punishment for people who lack self-confidence."
"Yesterday and today, Yuu has lost his confidence now?"
"?" It was impossible to be angry.
It is impossible to be provoked into making fermented bean curd.
"It's no use provoking me, my heart is as calm as still water." Yu Zhu Fo said.
"Really?"
"Yes."
"How about this?"
What are you going to do, Maki?
Maki Ikema turned around, bent down, untied the elastic band, lowered her little head and blew softly.
A warm breeze blew gently from a close distance.
His body reacted before him.
It was as if he had already imagined the wonderful feeling of something that Maki had never allowed himself.
There is an impulse.
The urge to hold down the other person's head.
But Yuzumi Yu held back.
He is an excellent ninja.
This is one of his many strengths, so insignificant that it's not worth mentioning.
"Maji, you agreed?"
Ikema Maki stopped abruptly, stood up without even touching her, and chuckled, her peach blossom eyes bright and charming, "How embarrassing."
Her face was red at this time, and it was still red from the close contact just now. She broke free from the boy's arms and walked into the house in her little white socks.
Yuzumi Yu stood up expressionlessly, walked over quickly, picked up the other person from behind, and walked into the room.
"Did the provocation work?" Maki said with a smile.
What kind of provocation?
That's the motivation method!
Compared to simple and powerless words, the language of actions is more convincing.
Yuzumi Yu was "convinced".
In the end, even though she was limp, had no strength at all, and was almost unconscious, Maki still didn't want to bite, and Yuzumi Yu didn't force her.
Yes, that's good.
No, it doesn't matter.
However, given their relationship, Maki will agree sooner or later, but she just feels ashamed about the biting now.
Time flies.
Yuzumi Yu didn't bother the senior much these past two days, but just asked her to prepare well for the upcoming competition.
Although I may not have much hope of getting first place, after all, there is a genius, I can still strive for second place.
The day of the competition.
In front of the martial arts hall, Yuzumi Yu and his senior said goodbye.
Maki entered the dojo carrying her longbow and quiver, while Yuzumi Yu followed everyone into the competition area on the first floor and sat in the audience seats.
The temples are almost the same.
Just lay out a green carpet and place a target in the distance, and you can have a kyudo competition.
Yuzumi Yu sat in the back row, his eyes occasionally sweeping over the crowd that came to watch the game.
Amelia was nowhere to be seen.
Too.
There was absolutely no need for that guy to come to the game.
Because the audience cannot interact with the players in the seats, it is more appropriate to interact with the players after the game.
His purpose of coming here was more pure, just to watch Maki play the game.
By the way, I looked for Amelia.
Before the competition started, Yuzumi Yu took out his headphones and started practicing his listening.
Speaking of the headphones he is wearing now, they were given to him by Kyoko.
It is very simple, yet exudes a sense of high-end.
In terms of practicality, it is also first-class.
This is the best headset Yuzumi has ever used.
I just don't know how expensive it is.
Forget it, it's useless to know. He was very poor before he became prime minister... Wait, does that mean he will no longer be poor if he becomes prime minister?
Don't doubt his noble character.
The game was about to begin, and Yuzumi Yu put away his headphones.
The contestants entered the venue wearing kyudo uniforms.
Only six people at a time.
Perform standard Kyudo etiquette.
The contestants knelt on the wooden floor, the bright lights in the room reflected on their youthful faces, and everyone was very serious.
With his hands on his waist, one hand held the arrow and the other held the longbow slightly behind him.
The audience was also silent.
Silence is very important in Kyudo.
After hearing the referee's words, the contestants stood up, with their hands still on their waists and their upper bodies motionless. They walked forward a few steps to the shooting position, stood still, and then knelt down again.
Listening to the referee's words, the six people turned to the right and faced the target in the distance sideways.
He held the longbow in front of him and began to nock the arrow.
Kyudo is a set of etiquette.
Yuzumi Yu put his hands in his pockets in the audience and glanced at everyone's name and number plate.
Who says you can't put your hands in your pockets while sitting? Feel free to do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't make any noise or disturb the other players.
One person stood up, then two people stood up, stood still, and got into a ready posture, then three people, then four people, got into position in turn.
There was no senior student in this shooting round, nor was there the expert named Sato.
A round of shooting is completed.
It was difficult for Yu Zuiyou, who was watching the scene, to comment, as he had long since given up his identity as a professional commentator.
Besides, how could he, a martial arts master, evaluate these people's archery?
That might not sound appealing.
It wasn't until the senior came that Yuzumi Yu could resist taking out his headphones and preparing to practice listening.
As expected of a system-certified "emotional value object", he amazed everyone as soon as he appeared.
The role of the cold and beautiful girl was perfectly interpreted at this moment.
His looks, fair skin, serious expression, youthful and calm face, and the arc of the bow perfectly captured the hearts of the young boys and girls present.
The senior student performed very well.
It is extremely visually appealing and accurate.
Perhaps he is not a failure in the education industry.
But it was all due to the senior sister's own efforts, and had nothing to do with him.
I just taught her once.
The senior student finished archery.
The surname Sato is very common in Mihong. Before the senior sister shot arrows, he had seen a man named Sato appear. Unfortunately, in terms of accuracy, he would definitely not be that genius.
Time passes slowly.
Finally, in the next few rounds, Yuzumi Yu saw a man named Sato appear again.
The flowing long hair almost covers the eyebrows and eyes. It is a long middle-parted hairstyle. The body is thin. In terms of appearance——
"System, choose him."
[Object does not meet the requirements]
Doesn't this kind of handsome guy fit the bill?
"System, choose me."
Cannot choose myself
Sato was wearing a neat Kyudo uniform. At a certain moment, he let go and the arrow flew out with a "whoosh", fast and steady.
You don't need to look at the target, just look at the other person's calm appearance, and you will know that it is a perfect hit without any deviation.
Very capable.
——Affirmation and praise from Wu MAX.
There was nothing more to see next. After seeing everything he needed to see, Yuzumi Yu stood up with his hands in his pockets and left the audience.
The Kyudo competition at the National College Sports Meet will last for several days, and the results will definitely not be announced today, so there is no need to worry about not being able to see Maki's final.
Today's game isn't over yet, so he has to contact that rare vampire lady first.
Although the business card was given to Minako, he could remember it clearly after just one glance.
Make a call outside.
The sun is shining brightly, and there is a unique sense of tranquility in Tottori Prefecture.
After a few rings, the call was connected.
"Hello." The person on the other end spoke first. It was a familiar voice, the same British lady from that day.
"Hello." said the boy.
There was a moment of silence, as if the other end was trying to figure something out. After a moment, "Gujing-kun?"
"Please reintroduce yourself, Yuzumi Yuu."
There was silence again.
"Then let me introduce myself again, Amelia." The voice sounded again, with a smile.
"Since Yuzumi-kun chose to use his real name, I must have guessed something. However, I'm not in Hakodate right now and cannot accept the invitation at the moment. I'm sorry."
"I'm in Yonago." The young man put one hand in his pocket and walked towards a nearby coffee shop.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for the third time.
"You knew I was in Yonago?" Puzzled and confused.
"Fengdai Coffee Shop."
This is the closest coffee shop to the dojo.
The other end remained silent for the fourth time.
"You're following me?"
Tracking or something is impossible.
Yu Zumi Yu, who has always been upright, would never do such a thing.
What's more, stalking a beautiful lady can easily make you look like a pervert.
Just like when he first met Kyoko, Tateno Kanata suddenly turned around to look at him, and the conclusion was - Tateno was a pervert.
Maybe I can use this to threaten Tateno-san.
"Tateno-san, you don't want Fukamizu-san to know you're a pervert, do you?"
It's so perverted.
It is equally perverted to threaten others in this tone.
"I just accompanied my girlfriend to the Kyudo competition at the sports meeting and happened to see you." The boy walked across the wide street on the zebra crossing.
"Your girlfriend?"
Yuzumi Yu knew what the other person was thinking.
You might think of Minako that day.
But it doesn't matter.
But...is it possible that the other party is threatening him by saying something like "Hazumi-kun, you don't want your girlfriend to know that you and I are meeting privately, right?"
If it were threatened, Tokyo Bay might have one more rare species.
Just kidding, vampires are protected animals, and Maki trusts him a lot.
"What's the problem?" he said.
"Why didn't you call me then?"
"My girlfriend is next to me."
"So you chose to meet in private?" the other end teased.
Ms. Vampire, if you don't get to the point, I'm going to kill you.
"I'm waiting for you at Fengdai Coffee Shop. Do you have time now?" The boy decided to end the meaningless topic.
"Five minutes." the other end said.
Sure enough, it's nearby.
After hanging up the phone, he pushed the door and walked into the coffee shop.
The room was air-conditioned and cool. The boy sat by the window and ordered a cup of ordinary and cheap coffee.
He still remembered that he went to drink coffee with Haruna Kusaka and each cup cost him 820 yen.
In less than five minutes, the door was pushed open and a British girl wearing a bright red windbreaker, black leather pants, and high-heeled boots walked in.
She has a tall figure, with a net height of about 177 cm, and more than 1.8 meters when wearing high heels. She really looks down on everyone in front of Mi Hong.
She just glanced and saw the boy sitting by the window.
Walking over, "Hello again, Yuzumi-kun."
"It's my honor." The young man said calmly.
The waiter came, took our coffee order, and left.
The coffee shop is well air-conditioned and plays soft music, which, combined with the aroma of coffee, can calm one's mind.
"I told you that Yuzumi-kun would come see me again." Amelia started the conversation.
"Very accurate." said the boy.
When the system popped up a prompt, he recalled the call in his mind.
"Traveling between illusion and reality, unlucky children will cry. I believe Yuzumi-kun already knows what this sentence means, otherwise he wouldn't call me." Amelia's blue eyes were full of confidence.
"That's right, the first part refers to the devil, and the second part refers to us."
Yuzumi Yuu had a blank expression on his face.
He hadn't even spoken yet, and she had already finished?
And...a demon?
Is the name these people use for spirits demons?
Thinking of those spirits emitting sacred golden light, the name "demon" doesn't seem to be very accurate.
"So you call them demons." Calm.
"It has many forms, can change its appearance, is highly aggressive, and is surrounded by black energy. The word 'demon' is very descriptive," said Amelia.
Has multiple forms?
Can you change your appearance?
Thinking back to the Torii warrior and the golden warrior, it seemed that Amelia in front of him had never seen them.
However, he knew that Aihuan could change his appearance, but that was only an ability within the illusion.
It seems that the other party has seen many more spirits than him.
"How many...demons have you seen?" the boy asked.
"56 at the moment," Amelia replied.
Only 56? From birth to now, only 56.
A waiter came over and neither of them said anything else as two cups of coffee were placed in front of them.
After everyone left, Amelia continued, "Some were beaten, some were not."
"What if I can't win?"
The British girl gave him a puzzled look, "Of course he ran away."
The boy was silent.
Can't win but can still run away?
That's also very strong.
Before, he had relied on sheathing his sword, the old man's enhanced catapult, or teleportation, otherwise there was basically no possibility of escape.
Perhaps the spirit values of the enemies he encountered and could not defeat were much higher than his.
"So, which faction are you from?" Amelia stared at him with her blue eyes.
Yuzumi Yu looked over.
With golden wavy hair and three-dimensional and deep facial features, she is classical and elegant, just like the classic European beauties in movies and TV shows.
——Serious movies and TV shows.
Which faction?
He is from the Tachi school.
Just chop and chop with an unsharpened knife.
"Are there still factions?" The boy stirred the coffee without latte art with a spoon.
"Of course, Mi Hong's faction should have the most Shikigami."
Shikigami?
Isn't that something from anime?
Is this reality?
Recalling the knowledge in my mind.
Shikigami was first created by the famous Onmyoji Qingming of Mihong, and later inherited by the Tsuchimikado family, a direct descendant of Qingming. In a certain era in the past, it became an important part of Tsuchimikado Shinto.
As for the origin, the origin of the term "Shikigami" is still inconclusive. Some say that "Shiki" means servant, and Shikigami can be understood as "servant god".
That is, gods, monsters or spirits that serve their master.
There is also a view that its roots can be traced back to the ancient divination tool of the Xia Dynasty - the Shipan.
Yuzumi Yu knows all of these.
When boys go online, they are always easily attracted by strange things.
For example, someone developed a stick figure race war online, or washed blankets, repaired horseshoes...
Yuzumi Yu picked up the coffee and took a sip.
Amelia, who was sitting opposite him, saw that he was thinking about something and didn't disturb him.
According to Yu Zuiyou's understanding, there is also some knowledge on the Internet and anime.
There are roughly three types of shikigami.
The first type is the monster-type Shikigami - many monsters in Mihong's legend can become Shikigami, such as Inugami, Kanko, Ibaraki Douji, etc.
Inugami is a powerful divine creature that appears in the form of a dog and is generally used to protect its owner from harm by demons; the tube fox, also known as Iigami, is a slender fox monster hidden in a bamboo tube and can possess the human body.
The second type is soul-type Shikigami: If the dead person does not believe that he is dead, or still has attachment to the world, he will become a wandering spirit, which can be easily summoned by the sorcerer to be manipulated as a temporary Shikigami.
There are also some deceased people who have deep feelings or thoughts about a particular place. Their souls will linger there and may also be used by Onmyoji to become Shikigami.
Why does it feel a bit like a spirit?
The third type is object-based Shikigami: Onmyojis with advanced magic skills can use small objects such as paper figures and pottery figurines as a medium to attach spirits to them for their own control.
"Hold on."
Yuzumi Yu took out his cell phone and made a call.
Maki should be in the backcourt now.
The call was connected in seconds.
"Maki, are you free now?" the boy said in a gentle voice.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I want detailed information about the 'Shikigami'." No beating around the bush.
After a pause, he said, "I'll get someone to sort it out for You right away... Also for the materials?"
"Almost." Yuzumi Yu said with a smile.
There was no response from the other end, and the boy didn't say anything either. Maki hadn't hung up yet, so she probably had something else to say.
Amelia opposite him looked at him with a smile on her face.
finally--
"You, you seem to have come into contact with something." You can hear the worry in Maki's voice.
These words made Yuzumi Yu pause.
What's the meaning?
What this means is that Maki knows about "Shikigami" and knows that "Onmyoji" really exists.
Yes, if Mi Hong's faction really existed, but the top families in Tokyo didn't know about it, it would be impossible, right?
As the group that can control Mihong's "rice price", they are extremely powerful.
This can be seen from the fact that a fierce gun battle broke out in the apartment ten years ago, but not a single piece of information leaked out.
Before Yuzumi Yu could speak, Ikema Maki spoke again, "Yuu, 'Shikigami' really exist, and Onmyoji also really exist. The old lady who did divination for me when I was a child was an Onmyoji."
"Let's talk about it when we get back, Maki." He glanced at the vampire lady opposite him and said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry about me."
"...good."
After the call was hung up, within a few minutes, the phone received information about "Shikigami" from Maki.
Really detailed.
The above records the types and functions of Shikigami.
Still has three uses.
They are daily service, combat and guarding, divination and spell assistance.
The first one is self-explanatory, the second one is self-explanatory, and the third one is:
Shikigami can assist Onmyoji in divination, and through their special perception abilities, they can provide Onmyoji with clues about future events or hidden information.
In terms of spells, Shikigami can act as a medium to transfer the Onmyoji's spell power to the target object, enhancing the effect of the spell.
Is there really such a thing as a spell?
If it wasn't sent to him by Zhenji, he definitely wouldn't believe it.
Spells and such are as magical as magic powers.
So, are there still cultivators in China?
He looked at the British girl across from him, "Is the Onmyoji really like the rumors say?"
Amelia smiled and said, "Yes and no. Most of it is correct, but it's not as powerful as I imagined."
"For example?"
"I killed three Yin-Yang masters in Mihong."
"…"
"!?"
Is it really appropriate to say this to him?
"It's not illegal to kill Onmyoji in Mihong." Amelia said again.
"…Is it written in the law?"
"It's not written, but in Mihong, if an Onmyoji reveals himself and refuses to be recruited by the family, he will disappear."
"...How many Onmyoji are there?"
"Very few," Amelia said slowly, blowing on her coffee. "Very few. There's not even one in the entire Tottori Prefecture."
"Have you killed them all?"
"How is that possible?"
How brutal.
Just say that vampires are not good things.
Amelia continued, "Unless they encounter a force majeure factor like a demon, those Onmyojis won't show up."
"That's normal," the boy said.
If every Onmyoji showed off his skills from time to time, society would have been in chaos long ago.
Those families wouldn't let that happen.
This also shows that the Onmyoji is not as powerful as imagined, at least not to the point where he can challenge a family alone.
Yes, the 20mm super-rapid-fire machine gun can explain everything.
Besides, those families should have countermeasures. Not being able to see spirits is a huge advantage in itself, because spirits cannot physically harm people who cannot see spirits.
"I have special means to find the Yin-Yang Master." Amelia showed a charming and dangerous smile and took a sip of coffee.
Placing the coffee on the table, she said softly, "If you don't accept my offer, you will disappear too."
"…"
"Are you threatening me?" the young man said calmly.
Level 1 Finger Gun, Level 2 Grandpa, and Level 2 Shun, Cat Master, and Wu MAX will reject all threats.
"You're not an Onmyoji, why should I recruit you?" Amelia said with a smile.
Looking at the beautiful boy, she said, "Which sect are you from? I'm just a little curious about you."
"Is Huaxia a cultivator of immortality?" He asked instead of answering.
The worst thing to do in communication is to follow other people's pace.
Glancing up and down at the boy, Amelia nodded, "Very confident."
Yuzumi Yuu said nothing.
If you keep nagging me, I'll sink Maki into Tokyo Bay.
Stirring her coffee, the girl said calmly, "Cultivating immortals? There's no such thing. I don't know much about China, but I've heard that talismans are very famous."
Is that so...
"So, what exactly do you want from me?"
Today it was Yuzumi Yu who came to find her, but before that it was the boy who came to find her first.
"Of course it's for the great cause of the Saint Clan."
"You call yourselves the Saint Clan?"
"Is there any problem?" Amelia looked at him with indifferent eyes.
"Isn't it the human race? Has it separated from humanity?"
The word "human race" made the girl dazed for a moment. After coming to her senses, she tilted her eyes to the side and then straightened them. "There's nothing wrong with the human race. What we are doing is beneficial to all mankind."
Yeah...
But don't try to make everyone a saint.
No, it should be the vampireization of all people.
"I came to you because I want to cooperate with you." The vampire lady folded her hands under her chin.
"Isn't this recruitment?"
"Recruit? I prefer cooperation, because you are not my subordinate, we are equal."
"You speak very nicely." The boy affirmed.
It was called cooperation, but it still felt like solicitation. He was told so many secrets that if he refused, the other party would turn against him without hesitation.
"Thank you." A charming smile, a confident charm. "But I still want to emphasize that this is a collaboration."
Seeing that the boy didn't speak, she continued, "Hazumi-kun, you are undoubtedly a human being, and a very ordinary human being... well, your appearance is not ordinary, but everything else is very ordinary.
It doesn't have the disgusting curse power of an Onmyoji, nor the dark magic of a wizard. It's just ordinary, pure and clear."
It seemed like she was recalling something, or looking for words to describe it. After a while, the girl spoke again, "I'm too lazy to think about it, but my ability to sense emotions tells me that you have a kind of arrogance, an arrogance that transcends everyone else.
I don't know where this arrogance comes from, so I'm very curious.
How could such a pure human being have such great arrogance?"
"..." The other party must be scolding him.
It must be.
The virtue of humility was directly erased in the other party's words.
I'm a very humble person."
This needs to be discussed with the other party.
He has never been arrogant, he just doesn't care about anything.
He just focused on his own path.
"You know what, Yuzumi-kun." Amelia didn't argue with him, but just said her own words lightly, "Many people's arrogance is fake, they have inferiority complex in their hearts."
No, Kyoko's arrogance is real.
Kyoko is childish and a little arrogant.
"You ran away." The girl brought the subject back. "I rarely describe someone as pure, but from my perspective, you are a very pure person."
"…I am not innocent."
"Pure has nothing to do with innocence." Amelia corrected the boy's nonsense, "Pure... well... it's like not being from this world,
In society, everyone is troubled by various daily trivialities and their pace is slowed down. No one can be truly pure, but you are different, Yuzumi-kun.
You really have that feeling, my perception can't be wrong."
Finally, as if she had finally figured out how to describe it, Amelia said:
"It's like a child chasing the sun. Everything around him has nothing to do with him. His eyes only focus on the shining sun. It's so pure."
"…"
"So I'm really surprised that you have a girlfriend, Yuzumi-kun." Amelia smiled.
"Stop looking down on others." Yuzumi Yu drank his coffee calmly, "You are the one who is really arrogant."
Amelia sighed helplessly, "That's why I didn't beat around the bush with you. I don't want to beat around the bush when talking to a pure person.
Yuzumi-kun seems very adamant that he is not arrogant."
"No one would like to be slandered, right?" Tell the truth.
"Let me guess, for some reason, you have to accept your girlfriend, right?"
"Making random guesses about other people's feelings is not only arrogant but also disrespectful."
"Looks like I was right." Amelia smiled.
"An arrogant person calls another arrogant. His arrogance is beyond measure."
"Although feelings can be cultivated, it's too hasty to accept someone without any feelings."
"This coffee is a bit bitter."
"Do you want sugar?"
"No, thank you." The boy said calmly.
"Where were we talking about?"
"You have the temerity to make casual comments about others."
"What's wrong with the evaluation?" Amelia.
"At Mihong, it's very rude to make random comments about others."
"I'm not from Mihong."
"…"
"Let's get back to the topic, Yuzumi-kun." The British girl smiled, "Work with me to achieve a great cause that concerns humanity."
"...You want me, a private school student, to go fight Onmyoji with you?"
"Private school student? Yuzumi-kun should know that I said that to test whether you can see the devil. Only those who can see the devil can understand the meaning of that sentence.
Anyone who can see the devil and is still alive is a master, and those who are not masters are almost all dead.
As an aside, there are no masters in the world who cannot see demons, because the first requirement to become a master is to be able to see demons, including Yin-Yang masters, sorcerers, wizards, etc.
"Many people steal the power of demons," Amelia added.
Speaking of this, the boy was silent for a moment.
He destroyed psychic energy to gain evolutionary degrees, but wasn't that also stealing the power of the spirits?
But in addition to this method, he can also participate in events to gain evolutionary degrees.
[The "Blood Day" event phase has been updated]
The system's prompt brought the boy back to his senses.
[Blood Day: A preliminary understanding of Amelia's plan, please explore more]
Putting aside the incident, he could get more information about Ling just by cooperating with the other party.
Spirits are very mysterious, much more mysterious than vampires or onmyojis. According to Amelia, the source of power for many people is spirits.
She didn't count vampires, that is, the holy race, but it was probably just the art of words. That kind of virus that can transform the human body into a vampire is probably related to the spirit.
The reason why spirits are mysterious is that they do not exist in the real world, but in the so-called "spiritual world", which, according to the other party, is "illusion".
Only those who are born with the ability to see spirits can explore spirits.
However, exploring spirits involves great risks. Only a very small number of people can see spirits, and even fewer can survive. Of those who are lucky enough to survive, even fewer can continue to live.
By this calculation, how much information about "spirits" can we obtain?
Although Yuzumi Yu does not need to find someone to form a group with, he needs to complete events and obtain evolutionary degrees.
Compared to these guys who are born with the ability to see spirits, his freedom lies in that - if he wants to find spirits, he can find them, and if he doesn't want to find the "true eye" level, he is just an ordinary person.
In this respect he was lucky.
"What are you going to do?" Yuzumi Yu asked calmly.
"You promised?"
"Tell me what you want to do first."
"I told you that if you don't agree, you might not be able to leave this coffee shop." Amelia smiled, implying that Yuzumi Yu should think it over before asking.
It can be seen that she is going to do something earth-shattering.
Those who know must either cooperate or die.
"Tell me about it, maybe I won't refuse." said the boy.
"good."
Amelia's smile grew.
The scene seemed to be distorting, the girl's mouth slowly opened up, the lights in the coffee shop alternated between bright and dark. At this moment, everyone in the store seemed to disappear, and there was only silence.
Amelia's figure was changing. She was already very tall, but her height was expanding until she was more than two meters tall. Her appearance was also changing towards that of a "beast".
Two bony wings spread out behind his back...a humanoid bat.
Her face had already become hideous, like a devil. As her huge bone wings flapped, the glass by the window was shattered, and her figure slowly rose into the air.
Yuzumi Yu raised his head expressionlessly and followed the other person's gaze.
Amelia's smile was terrifying, her fangs sharp, and her voice hoarse and heavy, "I will close the passage between illusion and reality."
She really looks like a monster now, no, a monster.
The world was plunged into a blood-red hue, as if a bloody sun was rising...
Close the world of illusion and reality?
"that's all?"
The bat monster was stunned. As its wings flapped, the wind swept through the entire store, blowing up the boy's bangs in front of his eyebrows. Looking at his calm appearance, she said, "You are not surprised."
Not surprised.
Compared to destroying the world or turning all of humanity into vampires, this so-called closing channel is too simple and unpretentious.
Yuzumi Yu looked at the empty seats in the coffee shop, "What is this?" he asked.
The human-shaped bat was shrinking and slowly fell back to the seat. The world gradually returned to normal. Everyone in the coffee shop came back, and Amelia turned back into the British girl she was.
"It's just an illusion."
"You also know illusion?"
"Everything."
Amelia's words reminded Yuzumi Yu of a certain fairy girl.
After a moment's silence, he said, "So you want everyone to be unable to see the demon anymore?"
Isn't closing the passage between the spiritual world and reality is just isolating the two worlds?
There are pros and cons, and for Yuzumi Yu, it's a bit bad.
"That's right." Amelia looked at the handsome boy and said seriously, "There will be no more demons in the world from now on."
"I prefer to call them spirits."
"Is it a spirit? It doesn't matter what it's called. Every place has a different name. For example, in Europe, some people prefer to call 'demons' 'ghosts'."
After a moment, the boy asked again, "What's the point of closing the channel?"
Amelia is strong enough to survive until now. There is really no need to close the channel because she has already suffered.
"Of course it makes sense!" The vampire lady disagreed with Yuzumi Yu's point of view that it was meaningless. She retorted, "Demons are a disaster, a disaster for all mankind.
Wouldn't it be meaningless to put an end to the disaster?"
These words made Yuzumi You look at him strangely.
What's going on?
Did he hear it right?
A person who is more devilish than the devil wants to be the savior!
"I don't think it's a disaster." Yuzumi Yu said lightly.
"You have been lost in power, or you are afraid of death."
"Where is the love of life, and where is the fear of death?"
"Those who gain power through demons cannot live without them. Just as cells age and are replaced, power will gradually fade away without the replenishment of demons for a long time.
The power of the devil has transformed the human body, and passing away means death." Amelia's London accent was really smooth.
"…"
!
"System, speak!"
[Host, please rest assured. The host does not directly obtain the power of the spirit, but unlocks the ability by converting it into evolutionary degrees. The body is not transformed by the spirit.]
"Is that so…?"
When it comes to saving lives, the system is still so reassuring.
"Don't you know?" Amelia stared at him without blinking.
"have no idea."
"how..."
"I don't get my powers directly from the spirit."
This made the vampire master frown slightly, "What do you mean?"
She obviously couldn't understand.
"In other words," Yuzumi Yuu said calmly, "I'm a genius."
"…"Silence.
"But..." She was about to say something else but was interrupted by the boy.
"Please forgive my rudeness, but genius is one of my many advantages." The old habit came back.
"…"
No one could react to the sudden attack. The next moment, Yuzumi Yu tilted his head and grabbed the other person's hand that was stretched out in front of him.
[Uncle is cooling down...]
The wrist was crushed, the white little hand fell down, and Yuzumi Yu let go of the other person.
Amelia withdrew her hand and saw the sunken wrist healing at an unimaginable speed. "That's not gentlemanly at all."
It only took a few breaths to heal.
"Amazing." The young man praised lightly.
"Without some strength, how can you say 'close the channel between the two worlds'?" Amelia looked at the handsome boy in front of her seriously, "It's just that Yuzumi-kun's strength is
It surprised me, too."
Of course, how fast can a level 2 guy go?
Comparable to teleportation.
"Not worth mentioning."
"There really aren't any strange power fluctuations. It's really magical." Amelia narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Not worth mentioning." The young man said lightly.
Although his abilities are activated at will, they still come from the system.
It can make the other party realize that the system is useless.
[...]
"Okay, stop trying to make a name for yourself."
"So what is your purpose in isolating the two worlds?" Yuzumi Yu.
"Eliminate the demon's disaster."
"That's all?"
"What else?"
"...The purpose is so simple that it's hard to believe." Yuzumi Yu's face was calm.
"Hazumi-kun doesn't seem to have come into contact with other masters."
"No."
"Hmph." Amelia snorted with disdain, "People have two attitudes towards demons. The first is those who are proud of them and regard their extraordinary power as superior to others."
"The second type is people like me who hate demons and want to eliminate demons from the world."
"Which one is more?" the boy asked.
"The first one."
"..." It's very human nature. "So the three Yin-Yang masters you killed in Mihong were all the first type?"
"Um."
It can be considered as "distinguishing right from wrong".
but--
"Everyone has the right to choose their own life." The young man said lightly.
"I also have the right to choose to close the 'channel'."
Yes.
But let's not talk about whether the channel can be closed or not. Even if it is closed, Yuzumi Yu's evolution will gain much less. It's not easy for the sword to be upgraded, and it's hard to locate the spirit directly.
At this time, someone came out and said that they wanted to shut down the "Two Worlds Channel"...
Before the katana was upgraded, he couldn't find the spirit, and after the katana was upgraded, he still couldn't find the spirit.
Then the sword was upgraded in vain!
[The Blood Day event is being cancelled...]
'?'
[Cancellation failed]
'...'
"Don't worry, I'll upgrade you, even if it doesn't work."
[German:?]
A is A, what does the question mark mean?
"I want to ask again, why do you want to close the 'channel' so badly?"
"What other reason is needed to save all mankind?" Amelia asked.
"What does this have to do with all of humanity?" the young man retorted calmly, "Let's not talk about the spirits, only a very small number of people can see them. Even if we close the 'channel', those who could have survived will die.
What about their efforts? What about their struggles to survive injustice? Being born with the ability to see spirits is already tragic.
It's so hard to survive, but you are deprived of the right to live. Don't you think it's selfish, Amelia?"
Amelia was silent.
The vampire lady who wanted to be the savior, she didn't seem to consider the feelings of those people, and only insisted on her own beliefs and goals.
"If we turn off the 'channel', there will be no more unfortunate children in the world." Ultimately, she said.
"You don't have the right to make choices for other people. They will stop you."
"For the world to become a better place, someone will have to pay and sacrifice. This is inevitable." Amelia seemed to understand, her blue eyes were firm again, "Sacrifice is what you said,
Not worth mentioning."
"The sacrifice of others." The boy emphasized.
"Including me."
At noon in Yonago City, the sun is shining brightly and white clouds are floating in the clear sky.
Airplane clouds crossed the sky from south to north.
Including me, Amelia said.
It's very simple. Because the "channel" is closed, all those who rely on spirits to gain power will slowly die. It seems that the vampire lord also gains power through spirits.
The only one who will be fine is the handsome S-shaped boy currently sitting in the Fengdai Coffee Shop in Yonago City.
If it weren't for the "Bloody Day" incident, he would definitely have left.
He has no interest in being a savior or making the world a better place.
If you want to make the world a better place, please allow him to become prime minister first.
Besides, spirits can hardly interfere with reality, as can be seen from Minako.
Aihuan, who had been raised for a long time, was only given 100 points of evolution. It was really a waste.
All Amelia wants to do is for the so-called "future".
However, God is unfair. Some people are born into wealthy families with a silver spoon in their mouth, while others are born into poverty and cannot cross class boundaries throughout their lives.
Some people are born beautiful, some are plain looking or even have flaws.
Some people are born unable to see spirits and can live their lives in peace, while others are born haunted by nightmares that allow them to see spirits and die an untimely death.
God is so unfair.
Amelia now wants to change this injustice.
How easy is that?
"My dear lady, you seem to be immersed in your own fantasy world." The boy just remained calm.
"I have a way to close the 'channel', I just need help." Amelia was serious.
It seems that she really has a way.
Did you really find a way for her?
It's no wonder that the system gave the "Blood Day" event. Is the ultimate goal of this event to close the "channel"?
Please allow him to refuse.
"Is that why you are looking for people who can help you one by one?" the boy asked.
"Yes, everyone's strength is important."
"Please allow me to refuse to help you."
"Why?" Amelia asked puzzled.
"You can't convince me to help you." The boy drank the rest of the coffee in one gulp.
"It's better for everyone if the demon disappears."
Honestly, Yuzumi Yu couldn't understand her motives.
This may be the reason why he is German C.
In order to prevent unfortunate children from existing in the future, I choose to sacrifice myself and others.
What vampire? This is clearly free blood donation!
Besides, can the other party really be so naive?
He knew too little about spirits, and he couldn't find any basis to refute whatever Amelia said.
The most important thing is to go back and accompany Zhenji.
He didn't want to ask Zhenji about Ling anymore.
Just live well every day.
"Isn't it dangerous?" The boy prepared to get up.
"Are you afraid of this little danger?"
"That? Closing the 'Gateway Between Two Worlds' is easy to say, but we have to face the counterattack of the spirits and the obstruction of others with extraordinary powers."
"So what?" Amelia stared at him.
"I'm not interested." Yuzumi Yu stood up.
As for the 'Blood Day' mission, it's just a hidden mission, so leave it at that.
"Is Hanzumi-kun so cold-blooded?"
"Cold-blooded? You have no right to interfere with my right to choose."
The boy's figure passed by Amelia who was still sitting.
"I told you." His voice gradually turned colder.
Yuzumi Yuu stopped, came to his senses, put his hands in his pockets, and looked at the other party with indifferent eyes, "Want to fight?"
Amelia also stood up. Wearing high heels, she was taller than the boy. "Here?" she said coldly.
"…"
Here?
What do you mean by here... This is a coffee shop, and there are a lot of people here.
From Amelia's words, it was not difficult to see that she was a little angry.
Why?
The reason is simple.
The two of them talked a lot. She took great pains to tell him so much, but in the end all she got in return was a sentence - I'm not interested.
This will break anyone's defense.
But Yuzumi Yu really doesn't want to get involved in this kind of thing.
Even if the system gives an event.
The reason is very simple. Everything and every matter must have a reason for its existence.
Directly erasing something may bring about some unimaginable consequences. For example, when extraordinary people know that they are about to die, what will they do with powers far beyond ordinary people?
unknown.
For example, most spirits are born through human emotions. Humans cannot live without emotions. The existence of all spirits depends on humans. The two are closely related. Can they really be separated?
A matter is not just about right or wrong, positive or negative, it is not as simple as black or white.
Did Amelia really figure it out?
Moreover, if one wants to cut off the passage between the two worlds, even if one can really do so, it will definitely cause a huge noise.
When the time comes, he will face a group of spirits and a group of extraordinary people. With his current strength... well... he doesn't know what the strength of others is.
But...wait, a group of spirits?
A group of spirits...
There might not be that many spirits, but there must be a lot of them. Otherwise, why would Amelia be looking for help? Someone to perform a blood sacrifice?
Yuzumi Yu didn't want to give any high-sounding reasons anymore. He refused something just because the benefits were not enough, it was too dangerous, or the relationship between the two was not close enough.
Just like his senior sister, if she came to him, no matter what the matter was, whether it was beneficial or not, he would try his best to satisfy her.
But none of this matters. The most important thing now is to fight this stern-faced vampire in front of me.
"Let's go where there are fewer people." Yuzumi Yu put his hands in his pockets and turned to leave.
"Okay." Amelia followed him.
As for sneak attacks, the cat owner will react before him.
The two walked on the street, one in front and one behind. The streets in Yonago City were very wide and clean, and of course, there were relatively few pedestrians.
It is worthy of being the county with the least population in Mihong.
The main reason is backwardness.
Yuzumi Yu had already done some research when he came here. He is just that diligent in learning.
According to statistics, the population of Tottori Prefecture is just over 530,000. 530,000 people in one county.
In Mihong, "county" is the highest level of local administrative unit, corresponding to the "province" in the administrative divisions of the Xia Kingdom.
So a county with only 530,000 people has a very sparse population density. Just looking at one data may not give you a clear idea. Compare it with Tokyo. According to statistics from the same year, the population of Tokyo is about 13.91 million.
Tottori Prefecture is not even a fraction of the size of Tokyo.
The main reason is backwardness.
Walking on the wide street, Yuzumi Yu seemed expressionless, but he was actually checking the system.
[Abilities (Special): Finger Gun Level 1, Grandpa Level 2, Instant Level 2, Portable Camera MAX, Party Level 2]
Wait, you haven't drawn any abilities this month?
Um...yes, no.
How could I forget about important things when I was with my senior?
Senior sister has misled me!
Looking at the abilities one by one, the uncle is on cooldown and only Shun and Party can use them.
He set his sights on an almost forgotten ability.
Finger Gun Level 1: Make a pistol gesture with your hand, and fire air bullets at will. Effective range: 50 meters. You can control the lethality of the bullets with your mind. Cooldown: 10 seconds.
Maybe it's useful now.
In fact, finger guns have always been practical, except for spirits.
[Evolution: 6700]
'Upgrade the finger gun.'
[Evolution: 6700-5700]
[Finger Gun Level 2: Extend a finger at will to fire air bullets at will, effective range 200 meters, can control the lethality of bullets with thoughts, cooldown 10 seconds]
Look carefully.
The cooldown remains the same, but the posture can be more casual and the distance increased.
The increased distance value is pretty good.
How to choose a place for a fight?
Of course, choose a place with fewer people.
Yonago is located on the seashore, with the Mihong Sea to the north. The two stopped in an uninhabited bay.
The sky was clear, reflecting the blue of the sea, and the sea breeze was blowing, ruffling their hair.
The road extended far along the sea, with only an old white lighthouse standing at the end. The waves hit the shore, splashing white flowers. To make sure no one noticed, Yuzumi You had a calm expression and his hands in his pockets.
"How do you want to fight?"
"What do you think?" Amelia looked at him, her expression expressionless.
"Whoever hurts the other first wins. How about it?" The young man said calmly.
"Are you still afraid of death?"
"...I don't think we have a mortal feud?"
"You knew my plan, but you didn't join in. Do you think this isn't a mortal feud?"
"I have no interest in revealing your plans."
"Only the dead can't speak." Arrogant Amelia.
It has been said before that vampires are not good things.
"So only one person can survive today?" The boy said calmly.
Afraid of death? He has never been afraid of death.
He has nine lives and is never afraid of death.
As for being afraid of pain, if you have practiced martial arts to the MAX, will you still be afraid of pain?
"No, just as you say."
"…" What were you talking about before?
"Let's start." Yuzumi Yu took one hand out of his pocket. When fighting with an extraordinary person, you still have to show respect.
With a "bang", Amelia was instantly ejected, and slight cracks appeared on the ground.
You'll definitely get caught if you damage the public floor.
It is undeniable that the speed currently displayed by the opponent is definitely much more powerful than those two Torii warriors.
But...Yuzumi Yu raised his hand and pointed.
Amelia could see that before she could react, a hole was pierced through her chest.
She braked in time, stopped, and looked down at the bloody hole on her chest in disbelief.
Soon, with just a point of the finger, she was pierced through instantly.
Unbelievable.
It is incredible that there is no fluctuation of any "power".
The wound was slowly healing. Amelia looked up at the boy with one hand in his pocket and asked, "How did you do that?" Her expression was so serious that the hairs on her body stood up.
Such terrible destructive power, so terrible that it came in an instant, no one could react.
No one knew what other abilities this seemingly thin young man had.
"You lose, Amelia." Yuzumi Yu said lightly.
You've fallen into the trap.
When it comes to the fastest way to deal damage, the air bullets that can be fired at will are undoubtedly the best. Within the range, they can reach the target with just a thought.
"How?" Amelia repeated.
There was clearly no warning, clearly no fluctuation of "power", yet it was able to hurt her from such a distance.
For her, a member of the Saint Clan, this level of damage was actually nothing, but it was terrifying. If she had not been sensitive enough about her body, she might not have been able to notice two more holes in the first place.
It was just a penetration, there was no other pain. Only now, when the wound is healing, the pain comes belatedly.
Regardless of the damage, just the fact that this method is undetectable is extremely terrifying.
Even she, who was preparing to close the passage between the two worlds, could not do this.
Looking at Amelia's reaction, Yuzumi Yu remained expressionless. Could the finger gun even shock the person in front of him who claimed to be a saint?
It seems that the other party's strength is not that good.
"It's just talent," he said.
It's a talent.
Isn't the system also a kind of talent?
"You don't have any fluctuations of 'power'." Amelia stared at him.
"Does this kind of thing require any external force?" Yuzumi Yu's face was indifferent, and he pointed to the ground.
I'll probably get caught for damaging public grounds, so never mind.
Amelia stared at the boy's every move until one moment, when he withdrew his hand, she was still staring.
It was really just a pose.
She looked at the ground where Yuzumi Yu had pointed before, narrowed her eyes slightly, and a smooth small hole appeared there.
After a long while, she finally managed to utter, "Incredible... talent."
"Not worth mentioning."
"You win." She looked at the boy who had been indifferent.
"Of course." Is there any need to say this?
"But..." Amelia suddenly rushed forward again, "We still have to fight again!"
"...Breaking promise?" Yuzumi Yu just stood there with his hands in his pockets. The sea breeze blew sideways, lifting the boy's bangs. He was so calm.
It doesn't matter even if Amelia changes her mind.
"The victory conditions you set..." Amelia's lips curled up confidently, "making me feel like I've fallen into a trap."
Moving against the wind, the sea breeze could not catch up with her speed.
On a bright afternoon, afterimages are left on the long road stretching out over the sea!
The speed is much faster than Torii Samurai.
Moreover, the other party doesn't seem to be afraid of the sun?
It shouldn't.
How could a vampire not be afraid of the sun?
Just as Amelia's sharp nails were about to touch the boy's hair, they passed through the air in the blink of an eye.
The attack missed, and she turned around suddenly in surprise.
The boy had missed her at some point, his back to her, still standing there with his hands in his pockets, still motionless.
However, it seemed as if it suddenly disappeared and suddenly appeared, as if it were teleportation.
[Instant Level 2 - Can appear anywhere within a 10-meter radius. When blindfolded, the radius can be increased 10 times. Cooldown 60s]
"Do you want to fight again?" Yuzumi Yu raised his leg and walked back towards the shore.
Amelia, whose attack missed, was not frightened. She just bared her teeth and rushed towards the boy again with a tone of dissatisfaction, "Are you bluffing?"
Has it been discovered?
Really smart.
Although Yuzumi Yu didn't fight head-on, he was still seen as bluffing.
Then... there's nothing we can do.
Next up are the cat owner and Wu MAX.
