It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 81 Too young

In the soft twilight of the evening, the spring sun hangs low in the sky.

Immerse the vast land in a long symphony of light and shadow.

Rikka Takanashi's steps were a little slow, and she slowly walked to the shoe cabinet, preparing to change shoes and leave the unfamiliar campus. Her eyes were focused on a group of female students who were talking in front of her, and while waiting patiently, she couldn't help but look around.

This subconscious observation behavior occurs not only because we are not familiar enough with the environment.

Moreover, the incident that happened at noon today also had an impact on the girl, making her particularly sensitive to the shadows and blind spots around her. She always unconsciously worried whether some kind of horrible monster was lurking there.

She noticed that as the angle of the sunlight changed, the interior of the school building was gradually shrouded in a faint darkness. If it weren't for the noise, conversations, and movements of the students that could still be heard echoing in it, the building might have added a bit of a gloomy atmosphere.

My thoughts can't help but drift to this picture——

When the students left school and went home, the classrooms were empty and the whole campus was silent.

What a profound silence and spaciousness it would be. The slightly dim school building seemed to hide an unknown existence, always giving people a feeling that anything could come out...

——Isn’t this terrifying?

Unable to help but shiver, Rikka Takanashi quickly came to her senses. At this time, the girls in front of her were talking and laughing and walking away, so she hurried forward, quickly put on her shoes, and left the school building.

Walking towards the school gate, the girl wearing an eye patch and bandages still attracted a lot of attention as before.

After all, with such a unique and strong presence, it is inevitable that many people will turn their heads to look at you when you walk on the street, and you will definitely attract attention.

Rikka Takanashi turned a blind eye to all this. She had been living like this for three years. Naturally, under such a watchful eye and public opinion environment, she had evolved a strong resistance. She didn't even need to do any psychological preparation and just strode out of the campus with her head held high.

After arriving outside the campus and walking along the trail for a while, she stopped and looked around.

"Where are we going next?"

Rikka Takanashi still doesn't quite understand the next arrangements and can only ask someone in the air.

"There aren't many places suitable for fighting. Let's go to the outskirts of the city. If we fight in the city center, it will make too much noise..."

Xia Zhi already had a plan. Although this time the dungeon was not really the Holy Grail War, he could still follow the idea of the Holy Grail War, which was to conduct it in secret and not let ordinary people know about it...

Although the question of whether the Holy Grail War is a secret is still somewhat debatable, it is hard to say whether the citizens of Fuyuki really believe the "gas explosion" theory or have to accept it with a pinch of their nose.

But this doesn’t matter, as long as the fight doesn’t happen directly in the city center.

It's better to keep a low profile now...

After getting through this period and completing the main mission... then, there won't be too many worries - as long as the plan goes well, he can completely defeat the entire world by himself!
Collecting his thoughts, the young man glanced at the sky.

It's already evening, but there's still some time before dark.

He asked the girl beside him, "Speaking of which, Rikka, is it okay for you to go back later? Don't you need to inform Miss Juuka?"

"It's okay. The Saint Coordinator of the Administration Bureau didn't come back so soon..." Takanashi Rikka shook her head. She knew that Juuka was the head chef of a high-end restaurant and usually wouldn't get off work so early. "Let's go back after we deal with the monsters that are attacking. She won't know."

"That's good……"

Xia Zhi blinked and didn't point out a problem.

Last night, he was watching TV in the living room and heard Miss Shihua calling the store manager in her room to ask for half a day off in the afternoon.

Maybe it's because today is her sister's first day of high school and also the first day she's recovered from a serious illness. Miss Touka already feels guilty for not taking good care of Rikka due to being too busy with work, so she seems to have some thoughts.

But this is fine...

Let's also drag Miss Juuka onto this pirate ship...

Rikka is still too immature. Even though she has the second-year syndrome and is very accepting of what she says, it cannot change the fact that she is just an ordinary person and is in the first year of high school. This is an undoubted shortcoming.

So Xia Zhi felt the need to find another capable ally.

Miss Touka is a very good example. She can be seen to be a very capable girl. She and Rikka are sisters and she cares about her sister very much, so she is more trustworthy than other people who have no relationship with her at all.

As if to prove his idea, at this moment, a cheerful bell rang - "..."

"..."

"It's the Holy Therapist!" Rikka Takanashi was stunned for a moment, then she realized that it was her cell phone ringing. After taking a look at the caller ID, her expression became a little flustered, "Why are you calling at this time..."

She gritted her teeth but didn't hang up the phone directly, fearing that it would only alert the other party.

After the call was connected, Liuhua said a few words to him with a guilty conscience, and then her frown gradually relaxed. She hung up the phone quickly and acted confidently again, as happy as a little bird:
"Hey, the Saint Conditioner said she would be back a little late tonight, so she told me to eat something first when I got back, and she would cook when she got back in the evening!"

"..."

"..."

"What do you think?" Xia Zhi asked with interest, wanting to see her own judgment.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go defeat the monster now. She definitely doesn't know anything!"

The girl clenched her fists with high spirits. The words "Chuuni" seemed to appear behind her, and the background seemed to be burning like a flame.

"In the name of the Evil King's True Eye, I am here to summon you!"

"Yes! In compliance with the blood covenant, the Evil King's True Eye is the strongest!" Xia Zhi immediately switched to serious mode, and seriously stretched out his fist and bumped it with hers.

Knew it.

After all, it's too immature.

The elder sister was more capable, calm and composed. What she did just now was simply a subtle test. She not only confirmed that her younger sister was not in any danger, but also considered that she would not alert the enemy if there was any problem. By the way, she might also use this to determine her younger sister's current location...

The young man looked back at the school gate. From time to time, students came out from there, talking and laughing as they passed by him.

The background sound when students leave school——

I could still hear clearly during the call just now.

But just in case, let's leave some more clues. It would be really embarrassing if Miss Touka is not good at detective games and fails to find us in time... Of course, it can also effectively prevent the other party from calling the police.

After all, most people can’t see their own…

As long as there are enough clues to show that Rikka was acting alone, and not suspected of being abducted...

Then Miss Touka's characterization of this matter would naturally be more inclined to believe that her sister was having another episode of her middle school second year attack.

at the same time.

In the apartment building on the other side.

"Rikka is fine. Judging from her voice, she must have just left school..."

Takanashi Juuka hung up the phone and spoke calmly, turning her head to look at Yuta's mother in front of her: "Can you confirm that there is really someone claiming to be Rikka's brother and taking Rikka with him?"

"Well... let me ask again—"

Yuta's mother also understood and asked her son for confirmation. However, after asking a few more questions, her tone became strange and her voice unconsciously rose a little.

"Wait, Yuta, you said...you are sure there is such a person, but what do you mean no one else can see it?!"

Her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that her son's old illness had relapsed? Was this actually a farce?
But didn't he say before that he wanted to change his ways and let go of the past? When he was going to college, he even chose a school that was much farther away, and he even cleared out all his old toys. It seemed like he was really determined!
Could it be that this strange disease is actually harder to get rid of than quitting smoking and drinking...

My own son...

After all, I don’t have that much self-control?
