Chat group: My Fist of the North Star will never lose!

Chapter 371 Wu Wu Wu Wu ~ Wu Wu Wu Wu ~
White clouds drifted across the azure sky, and the scorching sunlight shone through the thin clouds, directly onto people, causing everyone exposed to the sun to become drenched in sweat within minutes.

"how come…"

Kurumi Tokisaki fell silent. Ever since she obtained the power of the Absolute Spirit Armor, a strange power had appeared in her body. While she wasn't immune to water or fire, she was certainly impervious to heat and cold. But now, her heart felt icy cold.

[Forever Seventeen: According to you... that progenitor spirit named "Takamiya Mio" is not only not a champion of justice, but is actually using humans as filters... so-called spirits are actually humans who are not adaptable enough and have become berserk after accepting spirit crystals?!]

Kurumi's eyes widened, and the terrifying thoughts that flashed through her mind made her teeth chatter.

What's going on? ... There must be some mistake here!
[Great Goddess: That's probably right. If Kurumi hadn't been so adaptable, she would have turned into a mindless monster after receiving the Spirit Crystal...]

Although Tokisaki Kurumi is naive, she is not a complete fool. She has her own basic judgment and the communication within the group is very logical—the logic of enemies and allies sharing the same origin.

Just like in the worst anime or tokusatsu shows, her actions, which she thought were defeating the spirits, were actually murder.

"...If it's true—"

The girl covered her mouth with her hand, recalling how she had defeated more than fifty spirits in various places so far.

Those, perhaps, were all human beings.

They were beings who were once human.

An unprecedented feeling of nausea surged up from my stomach.

Everything happened so suddenly that even she, who was always elegant and composed, was caught off guard.

No! Mio is definitely not that kind of person!
Even now, the girl still fantasizes that perhaps something was wrong, or perhaps they conspired to deceive her...

After all, he was using these hands to save the world, and he had been fighting until now to protect his world, to safeguard his friends and family.

How could things have turned out like this…

In short, accepting a reality that is too cruel is not so easy.

[Yin Yang Eyes Sees Child: Whether it's right or wrong, it's not San San's fault...]

[Ryuko Matoi: If it's true, that woman named Mio Takamiya absolutely cannot be let go!]

[Aihara Enju: It's okay, everything will be alright as long as Jagi-nii-san comes!]

[Sound: What?! Is that even possible?! Master, beat her up!]

……

The comforting words had no effect; instead, they made the girl even more uneasy.

Seeing the straightforward invitation to travel through time sent on the interface, the girl felt as if she had been punched hard, and her heart clenched sharply.

[The Adorable Goddess: Hurry! Let me break the hypnosis spell for you!]

……

White light flashed.

The girl narrowed her eyes slightly, carefully and cautiously examining the girl.

The man who appeared in front of her was definitely over 180 centimeters tall.

He was quite burly, wearing only a rough and unusually rugged open-chested leather jacket. The powerful, rolling muscles on his chest reminded people of undulating mountains. He wore a ferocious iron mask on his face. Although he concealed his sharpness, his undeniable strength was still obvious at a glance.

Completely unable to move, unable to muster even the slightest strength to resist, the two flashes of cold light shining through the gaps in her helmet sent chills down her spine—this guy was definitely not a good person.

If she were to fight him, her neck would be snapped instantly. A flicker of fear crossed the girl's right eye, which wasn't covered by the blindfold, and she involuntarily took two steps back, pressing her body against the wall. "I really admire the first person to watch the duel..."

Before Kurumi Tokisaki could regret her rash actions, suppress the turmoil in her heart, and muster the courage to communicate with him, the menacing man spoke on his own, saying in an extremely terrifying and oppressive voice: "Maybe it's an ore? People absolutely have to watch anime, and what's leading me to heaven is Tachibana Koushi's work! Your budget is your weakness; fate will guide me to watch a masterpiece—"

"Hey, wait a minute! What are you saying?!"

The girl, dressed in a well-fitting black sailor uniform and black stockings, exuding a charm and allure that a high school girl shouldn't possess, couldn't help but scream. Her burning urge to criticize him instantly overwhelmed her fear of the man in front of her.

"I feel like I've found my place. The gears of fate are turning right now. Understand fate. Dating is about to speed up! Make Date a Live!"

With an unusually strange posture and wearing a mask, the otherworldly being chanted at an incredibly fast speed, like a priest or believer about to go to heaven.

"The secret code... I forgot... Let it be!"

After the ritual chanting was finished, Jagi crossed his arms, glanced sideways at the timid Kurumi Tokisaki in front of him, and then gave her a thumbs up.

"How do you feel? Doesn't your body feel so light, like you're about to fly?"

Completely bewildered by this series of punches, Kurumi, the true girl, who didn't know what to say, revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.

What a mess! Where did this weirdo come from?!

However, thanks to his witty remarks, the girl's tension eased somewhat, and the initial fright disappeared without a trace.

Is this what he did?

"that…"

She looked somewhat embarrassed, and her voice lacked confidence.

"Are elves really like you described?"

The girl's voice grew softer and softer until she finally shivered.

"San San, why don't you believe me... My heart aches so much, San San! Today, my heart is breaking...!"

Jagi exclaimed dramatically, clutching his chest, and fell straight backward, startling the girl who tried to reach out and grab him.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Haha, just kidding."

Jagi defied the laws of physics; his heels were nailed to the ground, and he fell halfway down before stopping.

The girl's hand hung awkwardly in mid-air, her face flushed, and she slowly withdrew it.

Jia Ji chuckled. He had never seen this innocent-looking San San before. She was quite interesting, and he inexplicably felt like he was bullying Shou Tu.

Suddenly I understand Esdeath's hobbies a little better.

"Whether it's true or not, just call Mio Takamiya over and confront her face to face."

Perhaps feeling that this wasn't fast enough, he added two seconds later:
"Or, sis, why don't you try shooting me?"

At twenty-two years old, it wouldn't be wrong for Jagi to call Kurumi "little sister," and then he added:
"Use the tenth bullet (Yud)."

-

The effect of the Tenth Bullet (Yud) is to convey the memory of hitting the target in the past.
