“It seems to have its eyes on us,” Yotsuya Miko also noticed the monster getting closer and closer behind them. Its hideous and twisted face was as happy as if it had spotted its prey. Just as the huge black hand came whistling down, Yotsuya Miko pulled Wakamura and rolled away in a sorry state.
boom----
boom! ! !
The trash cans on the roadside were swept away.
"Cough cough, looks like we can't escape now," Jianzi said, struggling to her feet from the dust. With a wall behind her, she leaned against it and pulled her friend up. "Ruomu, are you alright?"
"I'm fine," Ruomu said, glancing at the trash can that had been knocked away. If she had been hit... she would have died on the spot. No matter how hard she trained, she was still just an ordinary human and couldn't fight against such a monster.
She couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
"We're trapped here, we have no choice but to fight it!"
"Eh? Jianzi, but—"
"It's okay, I'm very strong. I've become much stronger over this period of time." I'm not the same person I used to be. I'm no longer that weak, ordinary high school girl, and I no longer need to hide from these terrifying evil spirits and pretend I can't see them.
A tiny essence, the evolution of life, a thousand bundles of special training, and the skill [Lover]...
Yotsuya Miko quickly turned and ran in another direction. Sure enough, she saw the evil spirit turning towards her. It was indeed coming for her. Now that Ruomu had been implicated, she felt a little embarrassed.
Therefore, it's even more important to solve this problem!
Miko Yotsuya was incredibly fast, even faster than when she was running away. She barely dodged the slap of the evil spirit that came hurtling towards her. Ruomu was dumbfounded. Miko could actually dodge the monster's inhuman speed.
So it turns out I'm the one who dragged her down.
Bang bang bang——!!!
The street was deserted. The billboards, trash cans, and railings along the roadside were in a mess. Wherever the demonic claws went, nothing grew. Jianzi seized the opportunity to grab an iron bar lying at his feet and stabbed it hard.
My strength and speed have both increased significantly!
Although Jianzi already knew this, this was her first time experiencing it firsthand. She was very competitive. Ruomu noticed this as well, and her face was full of envy. If it were her, even if she had trained for so long, she would have had a hard time dodging the monster's claws.
The menacing claws, entangled in black mist, could render her powerless to resist with a single strike.
However, Jianzi ultimately lacked combat experience. She visibly inflicted damage on the evil spirit monster, but this also enraged it. The sharp roar was like an invisible sound wave that made the girl momentarily dazed and lose her focus for a second. The evil spirit then launched an even more ferocious counterattack.
"Roar—human—"
boom! ! ! !
The claw slammed into Yotsuya Miko's body with a loud bang. The latter flew more than ten meters away without any suspense, like a rag doll, leaving a long mark on the ground. Ruomu was furious and rushed over.
"See the child!!"
"Cough cough... I'm fine," she said, her body aching a little, but she didn't hide her injury. Even she herself was surprised; was her resilience really that strong? Her body seemed to have far exceeded the realm of ordinary people.
"I'm fine," Jianzi said, still holding back. "The police might be here soon. We can't delay any longer; let's deal with this quickly."
Ruomu: "???"
That was an ability from [Lover]. This ability that Xiao Xiao had given herself gave her confidence. Seeing the claws rushing towards her again, Yotsuya Miko used it without hesitation. In an instant, all of Mu Xiao Xiao's power was integrated into Yotsuya Miko's body.
—Able to borrow the power of a lover for a short time.
In the sight of Ruomu, the evil monster's claws tore through the air, howling as they approached, about to smash her and Miko into mincemeat, when Miko suddenly raised her hand.
And then... he grabbed the other person's hand so easily.
Ruomu was stunned.
“Power…power, this is just a little bit of power,” Yotsuya Miko was also stunned. Only after experiencing it firsthand could she know how shocking and incredible a little bit of power was, not to mention his other exaggerated abilities.
"See you..."
At this moment, Miko Yotsuya transformed into a girl with superhuman strength. Her small, delicate, fair hands contrasted sharply with the monster's ferocious claws. With a sudden burst of strength, Miko's small hands crushed the monster's thick arm into a small ball.
“GA——————————!!!!!”
The piercing scream made it resist even more fiercely. It opened its mouth wide, its foul-smelling sharp teeth tearing at Jianzi, but the latter easily dodged it. Mu Xiaoxiao's super intuition made her feel like she was a prophet, always anticipating her enemy's moves.
With a flick of her wrist, she grabbed the evil spirit's arm and slammed it hard into the ground, causing spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the concrete floor. Yotsuya Miko, like a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex, raised her foot and stomped on the evil spirit's head.
Bang! Snap!
Ruomu watched helplessly as Jianzi crushed its head, the ground trembling. Under the absolute violence, the evil spirit's body turned into black specks of light and slowly disappeared into the air. Only when everything calmed down did Ruomu collapse to the ground.
She knew it was all over.
"Ruomu, let's hurry, the police are coming!" Her super intuition told Jianzi that the police car was about to arrive. She grabbed her classmate's hand and scrambled into the alley. They ran for a while until the super intuition stopped and the possibility of being exposed was gone, then Jianzi stopped.
"Phew, Jianzi, you really are a hidden talent," Ruomu said, leaning against the wall, panting and smiling bitterly. Compared to the fear and terror brought by the evil spirit monster, her classmate's powerful and exaggerated side shocked her even more.
The scene of Ruomu battling the evil spirit in a power struggle, grabbing it and slamming it to the ground, made her lips tremble. Who was the monster here? How could Jianzi be so terrifying? She was usually so gentle and introverted; wasn't this a huge contrast?
"I only rely on my small abilities, these are just small powers," Yotsuya Miko said shyly, scratching her head. The power hadn't subsided yet, and Yotsuya Miko could still feel her lover's strength. She clicked her tongue in amazement, "It's really impressive, such a small skill."
"This precognitive feeling, and the ability to manipulate others... wait, how can she even have this kind of ability?" Seeing Zi blush, she discovered another little-used ability: to arouse desire in others, which is basically the skill of going into heat.
Why are all their abilities so lewd?!
However, despite having such abilities, Xiao Xiao has never used them on them, whether it was mental manipulation or lustful breath. Xiao Xiao is indeed a gentle and kind person. Jian Zi smiled knowingly. Although he also has the monster form of a tentacle monster, he is completely different from these monsters.
Thinking of this, Jianzi's love for him grew even stronger.
Ruomu had no idea what Yotsuya Miko was thinking. Hearing Miko's words, her envy intensified. Was it Mu-kun's ability? He never showed it off before. Now, seeing it through Miko's eyes, Ruomu's heart wavered even more.
Chapter 342 Ruomu made a decision
After the school invasion incident, Ruomu has always longed to become stronger and more powerful. However, she is not lost in the power, but rather hopes to use this power to protect herself and the people around her.
She knew very well that the world was about to change.
Although she knew that going to the gym was ineffective and a waste of time, what could she do? Even if it was a waste of time, at least it would make her feel better. So, she really envied Jianzi and Xia Hai.
Not only can she obtain a perfect love, but she can also possess… Ruomu’s delicate body trembled, and she regained her senses from her daze. She glanced at Yotsuya Miko, who was experiencing the new power in her body with great joy, with complicated eyes, pursed her lips, and stopped thinking about those things.
She was actually very afraid that her thoughts would be discovered by others.
"Ah, it's gone," the surging power in her body finally gradually disappeared, leaving Jianzi with a slight sense of loss, but she quickly recovered and exclaimed, "It's really amazing. You don't know until you experience it. Such a small power can be so terrifying. He never showed any of it before."
“Yes, is that so?” Ruomu smiled and said with mixed feelings, “I have seen it before, I saw it at the very beginning.”
He murmured to himself, his pupils dilating as if lost in memories. He recalled the first time he met Mu Xiaoxiao and couldn't help but wonder what the outcome would have been if he had made the same choice as Xia Hai. It would have been very different.
“I heard Natsumi say that you encountered something terrible, Ruomu. It’s all thanks to Xiaoxiao. No wonder you weren’t afraid when you encountered that monster. You’re really amazing.”
When Jianzi first encountered these evil spirits and monsters, she was so scared that her legs went weak. Afterwards, she would hide under her blankets and tremble with fear every time. Looking back now, she felt ashamed. On the contrary, she envied Ruomu Sang's calm demeanor.
Seeing that Zi was unaware, Ruomu envied her even more.
“I was scared too, and… what exactly was that monster?” Ruomu asked worriedly, her beautiful eyebrows furrowing. “It suddenly appeared on the street and rushed straight at us.”
Speaking of this, Miko also showed a serious expression, shaking her head with a solemn look. "That's an evil spirit monster, a ghost-like existence, but I don't understand why it can appear in reality. Aren't they... supposed to be unable to contact reality?"
Before Xiaoxiao transferred to this school, she dealt with these evil spirits and monsters for a long time, until they, though terrifying, could not touch people in reality, or at least those who could not see them would not be affected.
Besides herself, no one else could see those evil spirits. Now, Ruomu could see them. Not only Ruomu, but many people on the street saw them and screamed and ran away. These monsters and ghosts could actually come to reality.
The small deterrent seems to have lost its effectiveness.
For Yotsuya Miko, this was absolutely terrible news. For Wakaba, she was even more surprised: "Miko, you know about them?"
“I used to see them often,” Miko Yotsuya pursed her lips. “My yin-yang eyes can see things that ordinary people can’t see. These evil spirits and monsters are like ghosts, and they don’t have much of an impact on the real world. It’s just that because I can see them, they affect my life.”
"Later, with Xiaoxiao's help, those evil spirits didn't dare to approach me anymore and didn't appear for a long time. I never thought it would appear in reality..."
“Jianzi, do you mean these ghostly monsters can affect reality?” Ruomu’s expression was serious. “We must tell Mu Jun about this.”
“Yeah, I know. After something like this happened, I’ll definitely talk to Xiaoxiao about it. Sigh, I feel like this world is getting more and more unstable,” Yotsuya Miko sighed softly. “If all those evil spirits appeared in reality, this world might face its end.”
Recalling the monsters she had frequently encountered in the past, Miko had no doubt that the end of the world was inevitable.
The two girls walked through the alley and left through another exit. Both of them had serious expressions, but Jianzi finally softened her expression. "But with Xiaoxiao here, Ruomu Sang, don't worry. Xiaoxiao will handle it. Not only Xiaoxiao, but our Feishen Society is also very capable."
After Yotsuya finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something and blinked her big eyes curiously, "Wakamura, do you want to join us?"
"Eh?"
“Natsumi has mentioned it many times, hoping you will become our partner as well,” Yotsuya Miko wasn’t lying; Natsumi Sakuragami had indeed said it many times. “I also think that Wakamo-san is a very capable person, and it would definitely be a good thing if he joined us. What do you think?”
"Join, this...partner, huh?" Ruomu was of course very willing, and she also hoped to become their companion, but she also had her own concerns. She hesitated for a while, then lowered her head and whispered, "This kind of thing, even if you are willing, it won't matter, Mu Jun has to agree."
"Xiao Xiao will definitely agree," Yotsuya Miko thought that given Xiao Xiao's personality, she wouldn't refuse, and Ruo Mu Sang was also a great beauty.
"Will he agree?" The girl's heart skipped a beat, and she involuntarily shuddered. Then she realized, "But joining you would be less like being partners and more like... joining Mu Jun's harem, wouldn't it?"
Yotsuya Miko: "..."
This is undeniable; it's spread throughout the school. They are Mu Xiaoxiao's harem, and it's an open secret. Ruo Musang knows this too. Yotsuya Miko smiled awkwardly, "That's true, but I thought Ruo Musang liked Xiaoxiao, which is why I brought this up."
"If I've misunderstood, please don't mind, just pretend I didn't say anything."
They didn't talk about it anymore. The two girls walked silently on the sidewalk, ignoring even the police cars rushing by on the road. Ruomu kept thinking about the topic, feeling a tightness in her chest.
like?
"I like Mu Jun, do I like him?" Ruo Mu wasn't the kind of slow-witted girl, nor was she arrogant. She quickly got the right answer: she had long had feelings for Mu Jun, or rather, she had already fallen in love with him.
Perhaps it was the moment he saved Xia Hai, or perhaps it was the feelings that developed after she got to know and interact with him; in any case, these feelings were genuine.
But why didn't she make it clear or confess her feelings? Was it because she was worried he would misunderstand? Misunderstand that she was a materialistic girl, misunderstand that she chose him only to get protection and to become stronger, so she kept it to herself and didn't make it clear.
With this in mind, Ruomu made a decision.
------------
The next morning, when Ruomu came out of the classroom, she was still a little nervous, like a girl going to confess to someone she liked. Well, she was indeed going to confess.
Just as I crossed the corridor, I was blocked by an unexpected person.
"Senior Sister Ruomu."
It turned out to be Matsubara Hōichi, whom she hadn't seen in a long time. Well, it wasn't exactly a long time; she had seen him many times at school. However, their relationship was now like that of strangers. Ruomu had never spoken to him before, so she didn't expect him to take the initiative to talk to her this time.
"Matsuhara-kun, is something the matter?"
If the girl he liked didn't speak ill of him or make any sarcastic remarks, and remained calm, he was just an ordinary classmate. Seeing this attitude from the girl he liked made Matsubara Hōichi's heart ache even more.
"sorry."
Matsubara Hōichi lowered his head sincerely, "I'm here to apologize... I'm sorry for the hurtful things I said to you back then. I was wrong before, and I've realized my mistake. I shouldn't have been so willful back then. Your relationship with that person isn't what I thought it was. I've seen it all these past few days."
Matsubara Hōichi did see it. Although Ruomu had a good relationship with those girls, she had very little contact with Mu Xiaoxiao, and their relationship was not that close.
