Li Mo was naturally well aware that this dark history of Kushida Kikyo was her biggest Achilles' heel. Just looking at the original storyline of the Classroom of the Elite manga, Kushida Kikyo discovered that Horikita Suzune, who went to the same junior high school as her, was trying every means to find out if the other knew about her past. She even went so far as to become an undercover agent in Class C and try to get Horikita Suzune expelled, all in order to keep her dark past unknown at Advanced Nurturing High School.
In other words, in order to hide her dark past and not want the others at Advanced Nurturing High School to know, Kikyo Kushida was willing to become a traitor to Class D, all in order to expel Suzune Horikita from the school if she might know about her past. To do so, she took off her angelic mask and revealed her most authentic self.
Now, Li Mo really wanted to know what Kikyo Kushida would do. Would she obediently acquiesce or even beg for mercy? Or would she, like in the original Classroom of the First Class story, choose...?
"Ha! Well then, how about this..."
Before Li Mo could continue thinking, Kikyo Kushida, who had looked up, let out a laugh that sounded like she'd gone mad. Then, she suddenly rushed in front of him, grabbed Li Mo's right hand without hesitation, and pressed it hard against her curves, which were exceptionally well-developed for a girl her age.
Undoubtedly, this was an extremely bold move. Li Mo hadn't anticipated that Kushida Kikyo would resort to such a tactic against him, who was far superior to Ayanokoji Kiyotaka. However, he didn't refuse her advances and leisurely enjoyed Kushida Kikyo's well-developed figure. The wonderful feel of it made him unable to resist squeezing it a few more times before Kushida Kikyo noticed something was amiss.
Seeing that Li Mo seemed a little off, Kikyo Kushida hesitated for a moment, but then remembered the situation and looked up at him without hesitation. Her beautiful eyes held a mixture of shyness and anger, but a triumphant smile played on her lips as she uttered words that carried a hidden threat:
"Li Mo, if you don't want me to report you to the student council for harassing me with ulterior motives, then please forget everything you just heard!"
……
Under the cover of night, a cool sea breeze gently blew by. Kikyo Kushida looked at Li Mo and stated her demands, which contained a hint of threat. When she noticed that Li Mo's smile remained unchanged, and that the hand he had intended to keep as evidence had not let go, but had even squeezed her hard, she realized that something was wrong.
In fact, Kikyo Kushida didn't have much confidence in Li Mo to begin with. His titles like "newcomer monster" and "demon king" weren't earned casually. Not to mention the many school-wide fighting clubs that had fallen to Li Mo, several unlucky students in Class D had also been severely punished for breaking the rules. Even though she hadn't experienced it herself, it had been mentioned in the Class D chat group. For example, Ken Sudo had said that it was like suffering all kinds of torture in hell.
Even though Li Mo was relatively polite to the girls in Class D, using the punishment of uncontrollable laughter as the least embarrassing thing, no one in Class D dared to disobey Li Mo's orders. Besides, Li Mo had indeed led everyone to achieve very good results. Otherwise, the students in Class D would probably still be thinking about how to eat mountain vegetable meals and instant noodles. Kushida Kikyo naturally understood that it would be difficult for her to threaten Li Mo in terms of both force and prestige.
Therefore, Kikyo Kushida gritted her teeth and chose this threatening method. However, when she saw that Li Mo seemed completely unmoved by it, she was a little scared and quickly shook off his hand. She was unwilling to run away like this, so she stood still and put on a confident posture.
"That's it?"
Seeing that Kikyo Kushida had still chosen this tactic, Li Mo felt a little regretful. He put his hands in his pockets, looked at her, and questioned her with great contempt.
Aren't you afraid I'll sue you in the student union?
Upon hearing Li Mo's words, Kikyo Kushida felt a surge of resentment rising in her heart. She gritted her teeth and suppressed her fear of the Great Demon King, adopting a fearless attitude and using the lawsuit against the student council as the final means to make Li Mo wary.
"Well, your so-called threat to me might be effective against most people, but I have at least three ways to deal with it. Do you want to know them?"
Li Mo smiled sarcastically at Kushida Kikyo's weak threat, looking at her as if she were a naive little lamb.
"..."
At this moment, Kikyo Kushida remained silent. Looking at Li Mo, who showed no sign of panic, she couldn't help but wonder if she had done something wrong. He seemed to have no fear whatsoever, as if he didn't care about her filing a lawsuit against the student council.
This was probably because Li Mo had Sudo Ken set a trap for Class C today, causing them to suffer a significant loss. This led Kushida Kikyo to overestimate the student council's power. While the student council of Advanced Nurturing High School does have a good deterrent effect on ordinary students, it is more of a platform for class leaders to leverage their power. Someone like Li Mo, who is a bug-level character, wouldn't care about it at all.
Li Mo didn't explain anything further to Kikyo Kushida. Looking at her bewildered expression, he simply said to himself:
"The first, and most lenient, solution is for me to simply tear off your coat and throw it into the sea. Fingerprints on clothes are not so easy to preserve. Once the clothes are thrown into the sea and retrieved, fingerprints and other traces will be completely gone. Without evidence, don't even think about suing me."
"The second option is for me to beat you up, and then take advantage of the chaos to tear off your jacket and destroy it. Anyway, there are no surveillance cameras on the coast here, so you won't even be able to prove that I hit you. That would be enough to teach you a very profound lesson."
"As for the third option..."
At this point, Li Mo deliberately paused, and saw that Kikyo Kushida's eyes had turned fearful, and her body was tense, as if she was about to run away.
In the next instant, Li Mo swiftly turned and circled behind Kushida Kikyo, startling the short-haired beauty into shrinking back. He reached out and placed a hand on her shoulder, his words making Kushida Kikyo feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave:
"Finally, the third option, which is quite ruthless, is that I could just go along with it and eat you up, then tie you up with your clothes and a few stones and throw you into the sea. After that, there would be no more Kikyo Kushida in the world. And given how incompetent the Japanese police are, you don't need to worry about whether they can solve the case. If the school can't find you, they'll probably just pretend they don't know anything!"
This time, Kikyo Kushida was truly terrified. Fear appeared on her pretty face. She wanted to shout for help but was afraid of angering Li Mo. Moreover, she knew that Li Mo really wanted to attack her now, and she had no way to escape.
As for Li Mo's threat, Kikyo Kushida knew it was no joke. The Japanese police's crime-solving rate was a pitiful 30%, which included a large number of voluntary surrenders. Many murder cases, unless there was a bloody scene with blood everywhere, could be treated as "suicides" by the Japanese police (which is why Japan claims to have a good public security, yet has many detectives and their business is thriving). As for Kikyo Kushida's family, they were at most middle-class. If she really disappeared, the Japanese police probably wouldn't take it seriously and investigate it.
The worst part is that Kikyo Kushida now realizes that the stupidest thing she ever did was to go to the beach late at night when no one was around to vent her negative emotions, only to run into a monster like Li Mo, and even try to threaten him...
"Tsk tsk, are you scared now?"
Seeing the barely concealed fear on Kikyo Kushida's face and her trembling body, Li Mo shook his head and put his arm around her waist, his tone becoming gentle again: "However, I'm not a serial killer after all. I'd rather not do something as cruel as possible. Now tell me why you just vented your negative emotions so differently from usual!"
At this moment, although Li Mo's tone was very gentle, Kushida Kikyo felt a great fear rising in her heart. After all, she was able to disguise herself very well in junior high school and at [Advanced Nurturing High School], and her observation skills were also excellent.
At least, Kikyo Kushida could tell that Li Mo's calm demeanor when he spoke of murder to silence witnesses was completely genuine. He didn't even blink. Her heart skipped a beat, and she felt something was wrong. Could someone who could say such chilling words without batting an eye really be a freshman at Advanced Nurturing High School, or some deeply hidden serial killer?
Kikyo Kushida was unaware that Li Mo had already taken some lives in the Real Church world. In the memories of Li Mo from other different worlds, killing people and monsters was child's play. In the worlds of war or chaos, the number of people Li Mo had personally killed would probably be in the tens of thousands. However, Li Mo in the Real Church world was influenced by his memories and had a mixed feeling about human life. He cared a lot about those who were involved, but he didn't care about those who weren't.
After a silence of less than ten seconds, Kikyo Kushida slowly began to speak, recounting her dark past from middle school. For the first time, she felt very relaxed while talking to Li Mo, an outsider, because she felt that someone as ruthless as Li Mo wouldn't care about her dark past at all.
Li Mo had already learned about Kikyo Kushida's frankness through the Classroom of the Three Kingdoms manga, but he still listened very attentively, gaining a deeper understanding of her and solidifying his own thoughts.
"...So, I used to enjoy being surrounded by everyone, but I don't want something like what happened in junior high to happen again, so I can only vent my negative emotions in private!"
When Kikyo Kushida finished recounting her dark history and explaining why she had run away late at night, she seemed to have shed an invisible burden. Her tone became very calm, and her gaze towards Li Mo was also very peaceful.
"That's true, then there's really nothing wrong with what you did!"
After listening to Kikyo Kushida's story, Li Mo nodded without changing his expression, but he immediately withdrew his hand from her shoulder. Then, looking into the beautiful eyes of the short-haired girl, he directly expressed his opinion: he didn't think Kikyo Kushida's previous actions were a big deal. At most, she couldn't handle those negative emotions in middle school and posted them online.
Strictly speaking, Kikyo Kushida's act of venting her emotions is perfectly legal in Japan, at most subject to moral condemnation. The problem is, don't those who told her negative things bear any responsibility?
"Then, can you keep this secret for me?"
Li Mo's words made Kikyo Kushida's eyes light up. She couldn't help but look at the irresistible demon king in front of her and said with a glimmer of hope.
"Yes, keeping it a secret is not a problem!"
Faced with Kikyo Kushida's plea, Li Mo scratched his chin with one hand, slowly looking the well-developed, short-haired beauty in front of him up and down, and made his final decision without hesitation: "How about this! I can keep it a secret from outsiders, and I can also help you resolve that dark history from middle school. In return, you will become mine completely..."
When Li Mo said these words, he did so in a completely authoritative manner, without any intention of discussing them with Kikyo Kushida. This was because after learning about Kikyo Kushida, a short-haired beauty who could be considered a hidden danger in Class D, he naturally made the most direct choice: to turn her into one of his own.
After all, Kikyo Kushida's dark history exists. Even if ordinary people know about it and choose to keep it a secret, she herself might not completely believe it. Just like how she regarded all the graduates from her junior high school class as potential leakers, Suzune Horikita, who was only a junior high school classmate of hers, was always regarded as a thorn in Kikyo Kushida's side. She tried every means to drive her out of Advanced Nurturing High School, and even went so far as to pass various messages to Class C.
It was precisely because Li Mo had this realization that he didn't think he could make her behave just by talking. Even if he showed strong force or even threatened her, it was hard to be sure if she would cause trouble in secret. Rather than letting Kikyo Kushida become a hidden danger, Li Mo felt it was better to make her one of his own. That way, he could completely trust her and wouldn't have to worry about when Kikyo Kushida would explode and cause damage.
As for Kikyo Kushida's opinion, Li Mo completely ignored it. He easily put his arm around the short-haired beauty's waist, directly integrated a [Seed of Transcendentality] into her, and then took her away from the coastline...
……
One day later, in Kikyo Kushida's dormitory
The morning sunlight streamed through the windows into the dormitory, brightening the girlishly decorated space. The clothes scattered on the floor and the lingering smell proved what had happened the night before: Kikyo Kushida's transformation from a girl into a woman.
Bright sunlight streamed onto the headboard, where Kushida Kikyo was fast asleep, wrapped in a beige sheet. Occasionally, glimpses of her slender arms and legs could be seen outside the sheets. A few tear tracks lingered on her pretty face, and the obvious signs of battle on the bed confirmed her experience from the previous night. Clearly, she had transformed from a girl into a woman, and facing the monster Li Mo had proven her somewhat unbearable torment.
With a soft thud, Li Mo walked straight out of the bathroom. His well-built body, clad only in shorts, exuded both strength and beauty. Compared to those who overemphasize muscle development and appear like muscle monsters, his body seemed to combine strength and speed, giving the impression of streamlined muscles. His overall physique was very well-proportioned and not exaggerated. However, compared to those rigid muscle monsters who consume protein powder or even use certain hormones, he could easily defeat or even kill them.
Of course, Li Mo had no such idea. He wasn't living in a world engulfed in war. The situation in the Real Education World was still very peaceful. He had no interest in boxing in the ring or participating in bodybuilding competitions. He was living a carefree life at [Advanced Education High School] with many beautiful women by his side. It was an exceptionally comfortable and carefree life. If all else failed, he could even study how to break through his power limitations. He didn't have time to pay attention to those irrelevant things.
Seeing that Kikyo Kushida was still fast asleep, Li Mo quickly dressed himself, walked to the bedside, patted her shoulder, and shook her a few times to wake the beautiful girl from her dream!
"Waaah! Darling, let me sleep a little longer..."
With Li Mo's efforts, Kikyo Kushida, wrapped in a sheet, was shaken awake, but having been exhausted the night before, she really wanted to sleep a little longer.
"Hey, little Kikyo, you'd better get up!"
Hearing Kikyo Kushida's words, and seeing that the alarm clock on the bedside table was almost pointing to seven o'clock, Li Mo quickly helped her up and explained the situation to her with a playful tone: "If you don't get up and get ready, what are you going to do when you go to class later? You know, even if you ask for leave, someone will come to visit you~!"
Well, Li Mo has already gained a lot of experience. Among the beautiful girls and women he has taken advantage of, those who are popular will have their friends come to visit them if they are sick and take a leave of absence, unless they are people who really have no connections.
Even Horikita Suzune, who used to be like an ice queen, now has a certain level of friendship with the girls in Class D. If she were to take sick leave, some of the girls she's on good terms with would come to visit her. As for Kushida Kikyo, there's not much to say. She's an angel on the outside and has many friends. Even if many of these friends aren't very close, there are quite a few she gets along with and has a good relationship with. If she were to take sick leave, they would definitely come to visit her.
This time, Kikyo Kushida really couldn't sleep. She didn't want her friends to see her current state and cause her to be in trouble. With Li Mo's help, she got up with a yawn and washed up.
Chapter 25 Li Mo's Discovery
When Li Mo quietly left Kushida Kikyo's room, he did not attract the attention of the other girls in Class D at all. Apart from Horikita Suzune and Karuizawa Megumi, the other girls in Class D living on this floor were all ordinary people.
Even for Horikita Suzune and Karuizawa Megumi, when they obtained the [Seed of the Extraordinary] and underwent a transformation of their life essence, it took them anywhere from a month to twenty days to gradually improve their physical qualities to the point where they could be considered the pinnacle of human physical abilities. In addition to evolving towards "perfection" overall, their five senses could even reach an astonishing level. Perceiving malice and even detecting sounds within a radius of fifty meters were not impossible for them; it was simply a matter of whether they were willing to do so.
After all, if one's five senses are too acute and one does not know how to control them, the consequences are not much different from losing control of one's power. Unless one is an exceptionally strong-willed person, the various information perceived by the overly acute five senses is enough to make ordinary people feel extremely irritable, and may even lead to loss of appetite and sleep, resulting in a mental breakdown.
Li Mo would certainly not do something so foolish. The [Seed of Transcendence] has undergone countless tests in multiple worlds to ensure that after successful fusion, it will gradually enhance the life essence of the fused individual without causing any aftereffects.
In this regard, after actual testing in multiple worlds such as Black Lagoon and Naruto, unless Li Mo himself wanted to deliberately create cannon fodder troops, the lowest level of the [Spark] level extraordinary seed is enough to allow the fusion user to quickly possess the physical qualities of a human at the peak level, and there is even a great chance that they can learn extraordinary power on their own (if the world has an extraordinary power system or native extraordinary power).
In the world of Practical Education, Li Mo was severely suppressed by the world's rules. He couldn't even condense more than twenty [Seeds of Transcendence]. All his extraordinary powers were severely suppressed, except for his relatively limited blood and qi martial arts and combat skills. However, the [Seeds of Transcendence] he condensed, even after deducting the ones that couldn't help the fusion user embark on the path of transcendence, were absolutely essential for the evolution of the essence of life. Kushida Kikyo and the others enjoyed this benefit.
At the very least, the fusion effect of Li Mo's [Seed of the Extraordinary] could, in a short period of time, allow an ordinary girl to reach the peak physical fitness of an ordinary human, and even continuously approach the level of "perfection." Combined with undiminished extraordinary training methods such as Qi and Blood National Martial Arts, they could successfully master their ever-increasing power, which can be said to be a precious thing that countless people dream of.
For Li Mo, besides playing around at [Advanced Educational High School], he wants to study the rules of the real-world. A modern technological world that suppresses all kinds of supernatural powers to the limit is also a very interesting research subject for him, to verify whether supernatural powers can adapt to the rules of this world.
Now, besides keeping an eye on Class D and the general situation of the school as a whole, Li Mo spends his time secretly getting along closely with several beautiful girls and girls, and devotes the rest of his energy to studying the world rules of the Real Education World!
………………
At noon, the sun shines brightly overhead, casting its rays upon the earth. Even in Tokyo, the daytime temperature can rise to over 20 degrees Celsius or even close to 30 degrees Celsius. In Japan, this is definitely considered high temperature weather, and most people wouldn't go out at this time.
Even though it's an artificial island environment called "Advanced High School," which is influenced by ocean monsoons and isn't too hot, that doesn't mean you can go to the rooftop or outside to be exposed to the sun. The midday sun is still quite intense. Even though Japan is actually at a relatively high latitude, the summer temperatures are still quite scorching for the locals, with around noon being the hottest time of day.
At this time, most students from all grades who have finished their morning classes and lunch stay in their respective classrooms chatting or resting. Occasionally, some read comics or play games, while a few are in other classrooms or activity rooms. In any case, there are very few students wandering around outside. Li Mo, on the rooftop platform of the main teaching building, is a unique privilege reserved for him. He didn't even bring any of his close female friends or girlfriends with him.
To be honest, Li Mo felt that having multiple partners was a bit too shocking at [Advanced Education High School], especially with the student council president's sister and the school board chairman's beloved daughter involved. If it were leaked, the scene would be too exciting. While he himself enjoyed watching the fun, he didn't want to become a news topic in other people's eyes.
Moreover, Li Mo is currently using his spare time to research how to better utilize his extraordinary power. Given the well-developed monitoring system at [Advanced Education High School], his individual research is less likely to be detected by the monitoring system, allowing him to conduct his research more effectively.
"As expected, this world allows the use of extraordinary powers, but it's not the world where the original extraordinary power system existed. It needs a lot of modifications..."
On the rooftop of the main teaching building of [Advanced Education High School], Li Mo looked at the fireball the size of a pigeon egg that had appeared out of thin air in front of him. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself, expressing his thoughts over the past few days.
Can supernatural powers be fully utilized in the world of Practical Religion?
Or, to put it another way, can the system of extraordinary powers be applied to worlds that do not have such a system?
These two questions are key issues that Li Mo from the Practical Education World has been pondering ever since he returned to the Practical Education World after obtaining the [White Mist Space] cheat. He even decided to make them the goals of his research and share his experience with all the Li Mos in the future.
Unfortunately, most of the Li Mos from the dozens of different worlds chose to research extraordinary powers. A few Li Mos chose to lie down and enjoy life, or their own worlds were still able to display a certain amount of extraordinary power. The situation in the Real Education World, where extraordinary power was suppressed to the point of being almost unusable, can be said to be the most typical example that all Li Mos had never seen before, or rather, the first time it had appeared.
Therefore, Li Mo in the Real Sect world felt that instead of continuing to delve into the Qi and Blood National Martial Arts system, he should focus all his energy on how to make extraordinary power work smoothly in the Real Sect world. That would be much better and more meaningful than simply studying Qi and Blood National Martial Arts or just waiting to die.
To put it simply, before Li Mo in the Real Education world obtained the cheat of the [White Mist Space], he had a relatively clear path to advancement. He was just waiting to enter high school and acquire certain personal legal skills. He thought he could either change his fate by getting into a top university or try to accumulate some wealth by writing light novels. Otherwise, if he chose to live a life of leisure and idleness, with the inheritance wealth he possessed in the Real Education world, he could at least live a life of leisure and idleness at home for the rest of his life.
While not necessarily extremely wealthy, Li Mo's inherited fortune was enough to allow him to live a normal life. If he hadn't regained his memories and knew about the situation in Japan, he might actually be living a comfortable life.
However, with the cheat of the [White Mist Space], Li Mo in the Real Education World changed his previous plans. Entering the [Advanced Education High School] was at most a daily pastime. The two things he really valued were to try to control the forces he could control as much as possible, and the degree of research and development of his extraordinary power.
In the former case, Li Mo was still able to spare a portion of the [Seeds of the Extraordinary]. Even if the number currently available was no more than twenty, he was able to find suitable candidates through various means and quickly build a force that was quite good in Japan. While he couldn't directly influence the decisions of the entire country, he could exert a certain influence from the sidelines. In Li Mo's view, this was enough. At least it gave him enough power so he didn't have to worry about trivial matters.
Compared to using the "Seed of the Extraordinary" to control key figures and form his own power, Li Mo was more interested in the world rules of the Practical Cult world that suppressed extraordinary power. This was the first time he had encountered such strict suppression of extraordinary power, even his own physical abilities were greatly suppressed, which was definitely not something that could be seen in an ordinary world.
In fact, among the information Li Mo knew about other worlds, even in the world of that period drama, his situation was much better than his own in the world of The Church of America. At least his physical abilities were not greatly suppressed, and he could use a small portion of his supernatural powers, instead of being in such a predicament as in the world of The Church of America, where his physical abilities were at most at the level of an enhanced version of Captain America, and his other supernatural powers were severely limited.
Now, after this period of research, Li Mo has finally confirmed that the suppression of extraordinary power in the Realist World can be modified to enhance its power!
This is not surprising. Li Mo's research in dozens of worlds has more or less confirmed that various extraordinary powers cannot be completely universally used in all worlds. For example, the chakra system can exert its greatest power in the Naruto world, while the power of shadows can achieve its best effect in the Jackie Chan Adventures world.
Other supernatural power systems are not completely unusable in other worlds, but there will be some differences depending on the actual situation. Sometimes, supernatural powers from lower-energy worlds are stronger in higher-energy worlds, and more often they are incompatible and are reduced.
