In the brief moment of distraction, many of the bandages on its body were cut off by Kuriyama Mirai.
However, since the core was not attacked, the severed bandages could be quickly reassembled using demonic power.
After a two-and-a-half-minute battle between the human and the demon, Mirai Kuriyama seized an opportunity.
He stomped Youmu on the ground, and the tip of his knife was less than half a centimeter away from Youmu's core.
But then she hesitated.
Just then, she felt a large hand grasp hers and press down...
Chapter 151 It's good enough if you don't get yourself involved.
"Magnetic~"
The sharp blood blade pierced through Youmu's core and plunged into the ground.
The bandaged Youmu turned into specks of light and vanished, and a Youmu Stone fell to the ground.
Kuriyama Mirai stared blankly at the Youmu Stone on the ground, then slumped down in a daze.
"If you show mercy to Youmu, Youmu won't go easy on you."
After a while, she replied, "Thank you, senior."
"I don't know why you've shown mercy to Youmu on so many occasions, but since you're hunting them down, it means you have no reason to show them mercy."
Dongfang Chen glanced at the wounds on her body, placed his right hand on her shoulder, and activated his healing skill.
“I’m afraid of taking other people’s lives,” she said slowly, her voice trembling.
"Youmu are not human, but a kind of monster that poses a threat to humans. Killing them is simply eliminating a scourge for humanity."
He spoke in a calm tone.
"I...I know, but..."
"There are no 'buts.' You just need to know that what you're doing is right, and that's enough."
There's a saying that goes, "The past is history, we live in the present, and what we really need to care about is the future."
"History cannot be undone. If you regret the past, then make good use of the present and try your best to make up for it."
He spoke in a very gentle tone.
As soon as she finished speaking, Mirai Kuriyama's injuries had healed.
"These Youmu Stones should be worth a lot of money. We can take them to school and exchange them for money with that senior high school student, Hiroomi Nase. Let's split the money 50/50 as usual!"
When she heard Dongfang Chen mention money, she immediately perked up.
She thought of the only 1,000 yen she had left after paying this month's rent...
If I can't make any money in the next couple of days, I'm afraid I'll be starving in a couple of days.
"No, no, no, it's too unfair to you to split it in half. I only killed one Youmu. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to leave here safely today."
Kuriyama Mirai waved her hands repeatedly, but she was also very distressed.
More than ten Dream Stones have been found here. Based on the price Dongfang Chen sold Dream Stones for last time, they should be worth a lot of money, right?
Even if it's split in half, it will definitely solve her immediate problem.
However, she knew how much effort she had put in and had no right to say that it was a 50/50 split.
Even in poverty, she could still distinguish right from wrong.
"It's because you attracted so many youmu to gather here that I was able to kill so many at once. Kuriyama-kun is actually the biggest contributor; even half is too little."
Dongfang Chen shook his head and said in a serious tone.
Somewhat bewildered, she pointed to herself: "Am I the biggest contributor?"
"Yes. Anyway, once it's converted into money, we can split it in half. Alright, let's collect all the Youmu Stones first, we're already late today."
He checked his phone; it was already past 8:40, and school had been in session for over ten minutes.
"Oh no! I'm late!"
She took out her phone to check it and then exclaimed in surprise.
"I need to hurry, I need to get my schoolbag. Oh no, I'm definitely going to get called in by the teacher!"
She hurriedly got up and picked up the Dream Stone from the ground.
Because there were quite a few items and the two of them didn't have any bags, they could only put them in Dongfang Chen's schoolbag for the time being.
As the two were about to leave the abandoned building, Dongfang Chen suddenly noticed the pantyhose with several holes in her legs.
"Wait, Kuriyama-kun, it wouldn't be good for you to go out like this!"
He called out to her, pointing to her legs.
"Eh?"
Kuriyama Mirai paused for a moment, looked at her legs, and a blush instantly appeared on her face.
"No, don't look at it!"
She screamed and hurriedly ran behind the wall where Dongfang Chen couldn't see her.
She came back two and a half minutes later, and now she's bare-legged.
Dongfang Chen nodded slightly: "Bare legs are quite cute, but they're not as alluring as wearing black stockings."
Kuriyama Mirai puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction and glared at him: "Senpai, you're a pervert!"
"Hey, I was just telling the truth, how did that make me a pervert?"
He turned his head slightly to avoid her gaze.
"We've already wasted time, let's hurry up and go!"
"I'm not happy!"
Then, Dongfang Chen accompanied her to find her schoolbag before heading to school.
On the way, Dongfang Chen reminded him, "Don't go looking for Youmeng alone these next couple of days, or you might end up like you did today."
"Does the senior know anything about this? There have been far too many youmu appearing lately; this situation is very abnormal."
she asked with some confusion.
At this moment, Kuriyama Mirai was unaware that the Void Shadow was about to pass through the city.
"I know, I know."
"I received information that a powerful Youmu named Void Shadow will be passing through this city recently."
"Because of this, most of the Youmu in the surrounding area have fallen into an active or berserk state."
He hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up.
Because of its size, Kuriyama Mirai will definitely be able to see any Void Shadow that passes through this city.
After all, the abnormal phenomena caused by that thing were quite obvious to the otherworld warriors.
At the same time, he also kept an eye on Kuriyama Mirai's expression.
When she heard the word "illusionary figure," a cold glint flashed in her eyes, and her fists clenched instinctively.
She said in a deep voice, "Thank you for telling me this, senior."
"You have a grudge against the Shadow of Nothingness, don't you?"
"Yes, because of it, I lost my best friend..."
She didn't choose to hide anything from Dongfang Chen, but simply nodded dejectedly.
"So you're going to avenge your friend?"
"Yes, I've been waiting for this day."
She nodded, her eyes filled with determination.
"Do you need my help? I think with your small frame, you'd be lucky if you didn't get yourself killed, let alone take revenge."
She retorted, "Using my blood will definitely be fine. Besides, I can't trouble you any further, and I can't let you be in danger too."
Having faced the Void Shadow directly, she knew very well what the Void Shadow truly meant to the Otherworld Warriors.
Because if you're not careful, you might get possessed, and once you're possessed, it basically means there's no hope.
"You're overthinking it. It's just a mere illusory shadow; I can handle it with ease."
"Moreover, since it is such a powerful Youmu, its Youmu Stone should be very valuable."
"I'm planning to move to a bigger new house, but I'm a little short on cash. Selling this should be enough."
He smiled and said.
If it were the strongest Youmu, 'Beyond the Boundary,' he would have to think twice before daring to challenge her.
"Are you serious about this reason, senior?"
Kuriyama Mirai stared at him suspiciously.
