Chapter 395 People can’t, at least they shouldn’t

Akatsuki Kojo... Aiba Asagi... Yase Motoki...

These three people may seem like ordinary high school students at first glance, but in reality, each of them has an extraordinary background.

At least, that's how it is in the original work.

As for now...

Aize looked at Xiaogucheng sitting next to him, a faint golden light appearing in his eyes.

By harnessing the power of the golden sword within his body, Azer activated the ability of "Warrior," one of the ten incarnations of Veleslana, granting him the special insight to see through the true nature of his enemies.

With the aid of his special eyesight as a "warrior" to see through the enemy's true nature, Akatsuki Kojou, who appeared before Aize, was just an ordinary high school boy, with nothing unusual about him.

Not a demon, and showing no signs of spiritual or magical power flowing within him, he was just an ordinary human being, the kind you see everywhere on the street.

"It seems he really is different from the original story; he didn't become the Fourth Progenitor."

Aize was finally half convinced of this.

The reason it wasn't 100% is because, in his eyes, Asagi Aoi was just an ordinary high school girl, with nothing unusual about her.

In reality, Asagi Aiba's uniqueness is in no way inferior to that of the Fourth Progenitor, and in some ways even surpasses it.

However, apart from Aize, not many people know this, and even Aiba Asagi herself is unaware of her special nature.

On the contrary, Yase Motoki, who seemed carefree and nonchalant, was someone that Aize noticed was different from others in terms of his physique.

"Overfitters..."

This refers to individuals who are born with a special physique and possess extraordinary abilities despite being human; they are also known as superpowered individuals.

Unlike psychics and magicians, the supernatural abilities of those with over-adaptive abilities are mostly extremely rare skills that cannot be systematized. Although they sometimes cause impossible phenomena in science, technology, sorcery, and magic, these are generally unsystematic special cases and therefore not highly regarded.

The Yase family is a large conglomerate closely related to the establishment of the Demon Realm Special Zone Itogami Island. It is also a family that produces many talents with such supernatural abilities. Yase Motoki is a member of this family.

"I never expected that even though Akatsuki Kojo is no longer the Fourth Progenitor, the Yase family would still come to his side."

Aize thought to himself silently.

In the original work, the reason why Motoki Yase appeared next to Kojou Akatsuki was to monitor the Fourth Progenitor who lived on Itogami Island.

Now that Akatsuki Kojou is no longer the Fourth Progenitor, why is Yase Motoki still appearing by his side? Is he trying to use a roundabout tactic, getting close to Akatsuki Kojou in order to contact Akatsuki Nagisa?
Speaking of Akinagisa, Aize also had many doubts in his heart.

Actually, when they met at the apartment yesterday, Aize had already secretly observed Akinagisa using the special eyesight of his "warrior" form.

As it turned out, Akatsuki Nagisa did indeed possess extraordinary qualities. Not only was she rich in spiritual energy and naturally pure, but she also had a special physique and abilities, just like Yase Motoki.

Akatsuki Nagisa's grandmother was an excellent psychic, and her mother was an over-adaptive psychic. Akatsuki Nagisa inherited the advantages of both at birth. She is not only an extremely high-level psychic medium, but also possesses over-adaptive abilities, making her an extremely rare and unique hybrid psychic.

She was born to be a shrine maiden, and her potential in this field might even surpass that of Yuri Mariya.

Now, she has become the Fourth Progenitor, which is as absurd as Mariya Yuri becoming a Godslayer. She is an exceptionally special person among exceptional people, and is definitely more eye-catching than Akatsuki Kojou, who became the Fourth Progenitor in the original work.

However, what puzzled and confused Aize was that, under his inspection, the special characteristics of Akatsuki Nagisa were limited to the hybrid ability user aspect, while the fourth progenitor aspect was nowhere to be seen.

She did not become a demon, nor a vampire; her body contained only abundant spiritual power, without the slightest trace of demonic power, which puzzled him greatly.

This made Aize somewhat suspicious, wondering if the Lion King Organization had deliberately given him false information in order to achieve some ulterior motive.

But seeing Xiao Gucheng looking like an ordinary high school student, he was puzzled again.

Since Akatsuki Kojou didn't become the Fourth Progenitor, it should be possible for Akatsuki Nagisa to become the Fourth Progenitor.

Although, according to the Three Saints and the general public, the Fourth Progenitor has appeared several times in history, each time bringing great disasters to the world, and now he has only awakened on Itogami Island, Aize is familiar with the original work, so how could he not know what the appearance of the Fourth Progenitor is all about?

The Fourth Progenitor, Flamelight Night Lord, is actually a god-slaying weapon created by the three Progenitors in the world and the Celestial Clan, who are known as the ancient gods. He is a vampire created in the form of a god.

This strongest vampire in the world was ultimately divided into twelve bodies due to his rebellion against the Heavenly Court, each containing one of twelve familiars, which were scattered and hidden around the world.

The so-called awakening of the Fourth Ancestor is actually a ritual for resurrection initiated after the seals on the twelve original bodies were broken and they gathered together.

The ritual, named the Feast of Flames, is a resurrection ceremony of the Fourth Progenitor, in which twelve entities fight and devour each other to become one.

Not long ago, the twelve primordial bodies of the twelve familiars of the Fourth Progenitor were all awakened, the seals were broken, and the Flame Banquet was launched on Itogami Island.

In the original work, during the Feast of Flames, the twelfth base stood at the very end, inheriting most of the power of the Fourth Progenitor. This power was then given to Kojou Akatsuki, who then acquired nine familiars and transformed into a vampire, becoming the Fourth Progenitor.

Both Akatsuki Kojou and Akatsuki Nagisa were closely related to the unsealing of the Twelfth Motostome, and thus were both drawn into the Flame Banquet.

This time, Kojou Akatsuki did not become the Fourth Progenitor, which means that the original plot has changed somewhat because of his arrival. However, the core remains the same: the Akatsuki siblings being involved in the Flamelight Banquet was inevitable. Since Kojou Akatsuki did not become the Fourth Progenitor, it is not incomprehensible that Nagisa Akatsuki did.

The problem is that both of them have clearly forgotten about the Feast of Flames and the Twelfth Base, and have returned to their ordinary daily lives. They both seem normal; one is still an ordinary human high school student, and the other is a somewhat special hybrid ability user, but neither of them shows any sign of becoming the Fourth Progenitor.

Under these circumstances, the Lion King Organization was quite certain that Akatsuki Nagisa had become the Fourth Progenitor...

What exactly is this matter about?
It sounds complicated, but in reality, these thoughts were just fleeting ideas in Aize's mind.

In reality, only a second had passed before Aize began to respond.

"So you're Akatsuki Kojou." Aize naturally struck up a conversation with Akatsuki Kojou first, smiling faintly, "I didn't expect that we'd be in the same class."

"What?" Xiao Gucheng was slightly taken aback and said, "You know me?"

"I suppose so." Aize nodded and said, "Your sister... Akinagi-san mentioned you to me."

"Huh?" Akatsuki Kojou was even more stunned, and asked in surprise, "You know Nagisa?"

"Huh?" Asagi Aiba said with some surprise, "So you're someone Nagisa knows?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Gucheng looked at Aize with a hint of wariness.

Yase Motoki, on the other hand, looked at Aize with a meaningful gaze, smiling without saying a word.

"You didn't know?" Aize seemed oblivious to the wariness in Xiaogucheng's eyes and said with a smile, "I'm actually your neighbor. My house is right next to yours." "Neighbor?" Xiaogucheng was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember something and said, "Speaking of which, the Yamada family in room 705 next door moved out a while ago. I did hear recently that there are new residents there, and it has been rented out."

“I’m the new resident, and I only met Xiaonagisa yesterday.” Aize smiled and said, “We took the same elevator. She’s very talkative and she told me all her complaints about you before the elevator even reached the seventh floor.”

Upon hearing this, both Asagi Aiba and Motoki Yase couldn't help but laugh.

"That really has Nagisa-chan's style."

Asagi Aiba commented.

"It seems that Nagisa's resentment towards you is growing, Kojo."

Motoki Yase then started teasing Kojou Akatsuki.

"Honestly, that guy still has such a big mouth." Xiao Gucheng said, scratching his head, feeling both embarrassed and helpless. "What is he saying to his new neighbor?"

"Who told you to always leave all the housework to Nagisa?" Aiba Asagi scolded, "You're clearly the older brother, but your younger sister has to take care of you. Let alone Nagisa, I miss you too."

"Well, compared to Kojo, Nagisa is definitely more reliable." Yase Motoki put his hands in his pockets, showing no respect for his best friend, and teased, "Not only is she lively and cheerful, but she's also very cute. Not to mention, she's an all-rounder when it comes to housework. Does Nagisa handle all the affairs at your house by herself?"

"While having such a capable younger sister is a blessing, Nagisa is still just a middle school student. It's a bit embarrassing for you to have your middle school sister take care of you, Kojo."

"Stop nagging!" Kojou Akatsuki said, somewhat embarrassed and angry. "I do help with housework, but you all know Nagisa. She has a near-pathological obsession with cleanliness. I get criticized for everything I do. How can I possibly keep doing this?"

The two friends were not at all polite to Akira's sophistry.

"Isn't that because you're too sloppy?"

"Isn't it because you're so sloppy?"

Asagi Aiba and Motoki Yase said in unison.

"You guys... try to make a good impression on me in front of the transfer students and the neighbors!"

Xiao Gucheng was so angry that he trembled all over.

Aize watched the whole charade, like a spectator at a play, before finally speaking.

"Xiao is indeed both cute and reliable. It's truly enviable to have a younger sister like her, Kojo."

These words made Xiao Gucheng wary once again.

"That guy isn't as good as you say. He's long-winded and troublesome, like an old woman, nagging you all the time. Don't be fooled by him."

Xiao Gucheng said these words somewhat awkwardly.

"No way! Nagisa is adorable, okay? Kojou, stop talking bad about that child!"

Aiba Asagi immediately defended her, clearly dissatisfied.

On the other hand, Motoki Yase's smile became increasingly frivolous.

"Well, you have to understand him, Asagi." Yase Motoki put his arm around Akatsuki Kojou's shoulder and said with a grin, "How could he not react at all when a boy his own age compliments his sister's cuteness in front of this siscon?"

"Who's a siscon?!" Akatsuki Kojou reacted violently, as if his sore spot had been hit, shouting, "That's not true, okay? I just... I just..."

Seeing his speechless excitement, Asagi Aoba showed a disdainful look, while Motoki Yase burst into laughter.

Even Aize gave Xiaogucheng a strange look and then said something.

"Kojo, although we just met today, I still want to say that people shouldn't, at least shouldn't, have such thoughts about their own younger sisters, okay?"

Aize's words deeply stung Akatsuki.

"So... I'm not a siscon!"

Akatsuki's roar echoed throughout the entire high school building.

The school bell rang at that moment, drowning out Akira Kojo's roar and rendering his rebuttal futile.

It seems that Kojou Akatsuki's identity as a sister-complex character will be something he can never shake off from now on.

…………

A day's class ended quickly.

Itogami Island is, after all, an administrative district of Itogami City in Tokyo. Even though it has an independent political system, it is still very much like an island nation in all other respects.

In contrast, the amount of time spent studying in an island nation is very short, at least compared to the ruthless and unscrupulous Greater China.

Therefore, around 3 PM, school ends at Saikai Academy. After that, it's time for students with club activities, while those who are not in a club automatically go home. Unless there are special circumstances, they generally do not stay at the academy.

For example, Xiaogu City is like that.

He used to be a member of the basketball team, but he left the team and became a member of the Homecoming Club because he was ostracized by the club.

Asagi Aoba is a hacker hired by the artificial island management commune. She is a skilled hacker known as the "Electronic Empress." It seems that she also has tasks entrusted to her by the management commune after school, so she leaves school early.

As for Yase Motoki... it sounds unbelievable, but this guy supposedly has a girlfriend, and he usually runs off to be with her after school, often leaving his best buddies behind.

So, Aize naturally became a lone wolf and started wandering around the campus.

He didn't rush to leave.

Because, although Kojou Akatsuki did not join the club, Nagisa Akatsuki was a member of the cheerleading squad.

Now, Aize is preparing to go to Xiaonagisa's place.

However, when he arrived at the junior high school building, a figure caught his eye.
