After killing someone, he acts like he's a good kid. Who is he trying to fool?

However, this doesn't mean Sakurai won't give her a chance to become stronger.

The form is used to protect the little snack; you can't prevent the other party from becoming stronger just because you're worried about them turning against you.

Sakurai would never do something like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Sakurai let out a long breath and squinted his eyes slightly.

"How about it? It should be edible, right? If supernatural beings can devour each other, there's no reason why they shouldn't be able to eat the remnants that are the core of a supernatural being."

"In fact, the finished product made by condensing supernatural energy to its extreme should be a more useful 'supply' than simply eating one's own kind."

Sakurai kicked the doll on the ground twice and said softly.

With a very slight nod, Taeko indicated that she could eat.

In fact, if she weren't afraid that Sakurai was fishing, she would have pounced on him by now.

The temptation to become stronger was irresistible to her, making her incredibly patient.

"Very good, let's begin. Eat as much as you can, because there won't be such a good opportunity next time."

"If you can't become strong enough, you have no value in existing."

His eyes flickered, and after giving her the sweet treat, a big stick followed immediately.

It made Miaozi's head buzz.

But compared to this...

The remnants on the ground attracted Taeko's attention even more.

If we consider Sakurai to be an exquisitely crafted cake, then...

The abandoned items are like a starving traveler seeing a feast; they simply cannot resist.

She struggled to move along the ground, and finally reached the remains, where she began her "buffet."

She remembered Sakurai's words: this was her only chance, so she should eat as much as she could, even if it meant stuffing herself.

Miss Taeko has made up her mind; she's determined to become stronger.

Then teach this human who doesn't understand anything about girlish feelings a good lesson.

Under Sakurai's forceful suppression, Taeko, whose madness as a supernatural being was suppressed, regained some of her human emotions.

so...

I'm going to eat, eat, eat!!!

They devoured the leftovers in large gulps, regardless of whether they could actually swallow them; they just swallowed them first.

At worst, I'll just get indigestion.

"For the supernatural, a very small percentage of people can gain special [superpowers] from snacks."

"What kind of abilities do you think this guy might develop in the future?"

While Miss Taeko was eating, Sakurai asked about the late-night snacks on the side.

Shake his head.

It's one thing for a late-night snack's brain to be developed after ingesting food residue.

She was still a novice, and her knowledge in this area couldn't compare to that of Sakurai, who had the old-fashioned, cunning businessman as his source of information.

"A significant portion of the abilities gained through supernatural means are linked to one's previous life."

"It's like the folk tale that people who die in water become water ghosts."

"Or the murderer might be carrying the same murder weapon he used when he was alive."

"As for Taeko Honto, her short life was linked to the fire that happened before her death."

"In other words, if it's Hondo Taeko, the ability she's most likely to develop is..."

"flame."

As soon as she finished speaking, compared to the speechless "So you knew my name?", Miss Taeko, who was eating heartily, stopped abruptly.

He raised his head in disbelief, glanced at Sakurai, and then lowered his head again to continue working hard.

Now that things have come to this, she's started to give up.

After all, anyone would be afraid of a psychopath who stays up all night and holds a dagger to your neck at the slightest disturbance.

and...

If possible, she would be happy to help Xiao Yexiao. In Xiao Yexiao, she seemed to see herself, the one who could only watch helplessly as her parents died.

If she becomes strong enough, she wouldn't mind protecting Xiaoyexiao.

The premise is that—

She needs to take the lead.

"Even flames have different grades."

Ignoring Taeko and Little Night Snack's reactions, Sakurai continued speaking.

"In my understanding, if we don't mention those legendary and strange fire-based supernatural abilities..."

"The most unique of all flames is undoubtedly the one called the Flame of the Soul."

"A flame that can burn the soul, a flame that is inherently an enemy of life and spirit."

"That is..."

"The flames clinging to my Aragami Fang."

Reaching out, Sakurai ruffled the little snack's hair and pulled out the Arakami Fang from his waist.

The crimson blade emitted a faint light that illuminated Xiao Yexiao's eyes.

This is...

The tyrannical god known as the Aragami, the fire god, possessed flames from birth.

"Sakurai, what do you mean?"

The little midnight snack, with its twinkling lights in front of it, seemed to understand something.

"Well, according to the shrewd merchant's speculation, if she keeps in continuous contact with my Aragami Fang before her abilities are developed, there is a considerable chance that she can develop the Soul Flame."

Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, it's worth a try.

The supernatural is the supernatural, and in Sakurai's eyes, the supernatural has no human rights.

As the first character of Little Night Snack, what use is she if she's not strong enough?

According to Sakurai's idea, the late-night snack is like playing a supernatural Pokémon game.

As one of her initial three starter families, Taeko must have sufficient potential for growth and power.

This is also why Sakurai spared no expense in consuming a large number of relics to strengthen her.

otherwise...

But it's just a supernatural phenomenon that wants his belongings?

Is he tired of living or is he just not thinking straight?

Even if he didn't actually slash her, Sakurai would only offer a chuckle.

When she had eaten about the fifty-seventh remnant, Ms. Taeko stopped.

The polar bear plush toy was visibly inflated several sizes.

What...

It is developing inside this body.

Something extremely special, indescribable.

It is about to be conceived and born.

"Little snack, you can go out now."

"What's about to happen to you is very dangerous."

"At least let's get out of this room first."

With his eyes slightly narrowed, Sakurai, who had been burned by the soul fire thousands of times, immediately sensed a familiar feeling.

Standing up, standing between the curious little snack and the polar bear plush toy, Sakurai gave her instructions.

Obediently following Sakurai's instructions, they kept a considerable distance.

The class monitor, Xiao Yexiao, peeked out from the doorway and secretly observed.

12. Graduates are born, and Taeko Hondo undergoes a super evolution.

Sakurai simply lowered his head indifferently, staring silently at the increasingly swollen polar bear plush toy at his feet.

Come on, I'm looking forward to it...

What will happen next?

I would be very happy if someone were powerful enough to kill me.

Only then do you have the right to protect your late-night snacks.

Don't disappoint me, paranormal stuff.

With a flick of his wrist, the eight-sided bright silver hammer flew into his hand. Sakurai's eyes flickered with uncertainty, as if he were thinking about something.

Time passed by, and the polar bear plush toy had grown to twice its original size.

It's so bulky now that you could fit a child inside.

Even at this stage, the transformation is not yet complete; the polar bear plush toy continues to grow larger.

A faint black mist, mixed with an invisible heat, lingered in the air.

Sakurai was all too familiar with this feeling; though faint, it was...
