Crossover Anime/Manga - Not Everyday Life

"Yukinoshita, you've come!"

Upon seeing Yukino Yukinoshita, Yui Yuigahama became excited and no longer intended to inquire about Mahiru Shiina's situation.

She could still tell that Shiina Mahiru didn't want to say anything.

"Hmm, why are you here so early? Didn't I say nine o'clock?" Yukino Yukinoshita walked over.

Yui Yuigahama moved over and sat down, offering her her seat.

Yukinoshita sat down in Yuigahama Yui's seat, opposite Natsuo.

"Why are you so late? We've been waiting here for ages," Xia Sheng questioned directly.

"You've arrived too early."

Yukino Yukinoshita said, taking out her phone to check the time: "It's not time to meet up yet, so I'm not late."

"Don't you know that gatherings need to be arranged in advance?"

"Is that so?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Yui Yuigahama and Mahiru Shiina with an innocent expression.

"That's how it is..." Yui Yuigahama nodded.

"This is already an unwritten rule," Shiina Mahiru added.

"I see... Well then, I'm sorry I'm late." Yukino Yukinoshita immediately apologized.

"Hmm, I forgive you. After all, you don't understand these things." Xia Sheng leaned back in his chair with satisfaction, crossed his arms, and nodded.

"Why do I need your forgiveness? Hurry up, everyone's here, let's get down to business." Yukino Yukinoshita glared at him, annoyed, and urged him on.

"it is good."

Xia Sheng's expression instantly turned serious. He looked at the three of them and slowly said, "Last Monday, I think I encountered that escaped slime."

"What?!" Shiina Mahiru exclaimed softly.

"The slime escaped? What happened?" Yui Yuigahama was completely unaware of this and looked bewildered.

"I forgot to tell you about this. The slimes in that area will escape if they aren't eliminated in time."

"Then why did they escape to...our side?" Yui Yuigahama suddenly realized, her eyes widening.

According to Xia Sheng, that's how it is.

Yukino Yukinoshita stared intently at Natsuo, and asked seriously, "What exactly happened?"

"It was on Monday, I went out to buy something, and that's when I ran into him..."

Xia Sheng began to recount the events of that day: the eerie black mist man, his destructive power, his immense strength, his invulnerability to blades and bullets, his targeting of the bald man, and the situation that could only be resolved by his special attributes.

When he finished speaking, Yukino and the others were speechless, both shocked and in disbelief.

They still don't understand what's going on in that place, and they still think it's a dream.

But when Xia Sheng said that, it became clear that the place might actually be a reality, and that their actions were indeed aimed at eliminating the invaders and protecting the world.

If it fails, it will have a societal impact, similar to a terrorist attack.

"Um, I have a question." Yui Yuigahama suddenly raised her hand, breaking the silence.

Xia Sheng and the others all looked at her.

"What's the problem?"

"Why is it that such a big commotion hasn't generated any buzz or news at all?"

"They must have been suppressed by someone," Yukino Yukinoshita replied calmly.

"Suppress it?"

"Yes, people with power can interfere with the news at will, and this kind of thing, this kind of situation, is not suitable to be reported. Not only might no one believe it, but it will also cause unnecessary panic... The people above don't want to see this," Yukino Yukinoshita explained.

"I see..." Yui Yuigahama nodded, looking like she understood but not quite.

As an ordinary person who could only keep up with fashion trends, she had no concept of anything when she first heard someone talk about something deeper.

"Didn't someone see it? They didn't say anything?" Shiina Mahiru asked, realizing this.

"They've probably been silenced."

"All right......"

"Natsuo, you need to be careful," Yukino Yukinoshita said, looking at Natsuo.

"The bald man you mentioned who was attacked by the black mist people is definitely not an ordinary person. He will definitely try every means to investigate you."

"I know... but so far, there hasn't been a single sound..."

Xia Sheng had been worried about this issue. He hoped to make contact with them, as it would be more reassuring than keeping an eye on them secretly.

"Perhaps they've already found you. You didn't do anything to hide anything, just wearing a hat, it's definitely useless."

"Even if they find out, there's nothing I can do," Xia Sheng said, spreading his hands in a gesture of helplessness.

If someone actually approaches him, he has no way to avoid them, unless he can...

Suddenly, Xia Sheng remembered that he had one more ability that he hadn't tested yet.

If his concealed aura were useful to people, then there would be some ways to deal with it.

"Then, what should we do?" Yui Yuigahama asked worriedly.

"There's nothing I can do to help with this," Shiina Mahiru said apologetically.

She comes from a well-off family, but she's just an ordinary person, and there's nothing she can do about this kind of problem.

And even if her family isn't ordinary, there's nothing she can do; there's nothing she can do about it.

"I can't either... But they didn't do anything. Maybe they were worried about Natsumi. After all, that black-clad man was invulnerable to swords and spears and had immense strength, yet he easily defeated him." Yukino Yukinoshita shook her head and analyzed.

"What should we do?" Yui Yuigahama asked anxiously.

"There's nothing we can do about it. We're able to go to places like that, and those places have repercussions in reality, so we're bound to encounter situations like this," Yukino Yukinoshita said helplessly.

"We're fine, but Xia Sheng's special abilities will definitely be exposed."

"Unless we can guarantee that the slimes in that place won't escape," Shiina Mahiru said.

"But...did one escape yesterday?" Yui Yuigahama whispered a reminder.

"It's my fault, if I hadn't taken it so lightly..."

Xia Sheng was filled with regret. He had reminded himself to be absolutely careful about the Black Mist Man incident, but things still went wrong.

If the black mist creature appears again and attacks the bald man, he definitely won't be able to escape.

"It's not your fault. You did the right thing. Testing the slime's abilities is important. Otherwise, we'll definitely encounter more serious problems in the future," Yukino Yukinoshita comforted her.

"Mmm, Natsuo, don't blame yourself. You did the right thing," Yui Yuigahama comforted him.

"I think so too, so don't blame yourself," Shiina Mahiru gently advised.

"I'm not blaming myself," Xia Sheng shook his head.

"However, if the slime were to possess a person again and become a black mist being, causing destruction, that would not be a good thing; the harm would be too great."

"What's done is done, there's no use dwelling on it. That black mist person is impervious to blades and spears, only your abilities can deal with him. Since you're planning to take action, then try to hide your identity," Yukino Yukinoshita said.

"But, in broad daylight... it would be better if it appeared at night," Yui Yuigahama said regretfully.

"You never know, maybe the blue slime just appears at night," Yukino Yukinoshita said casually.

"That makes things even more complicated."

Shiina Mahiru spoke up: "According to Natsuo, the Black Mist Man mainly attacks people. At night, it's even easier for him to move around, and the harm he causes is unimaginable."

"That's true... So, does that mean we have no choice but to expose ourselves?"

"Not necessarily," Xia Sheng suddenly interjected.

"What do you mean?" Yukino and the others looked at him at the same time.

"Do you remember the ability I gained to conceal my presence? If it were useful in reality..."

"Huh? Does that mean we can hide it?" Yui Yuigahama asked excitedly.

"It's hard to say. Concealing one's aura is probably not the same as invisibility. Even if people can't see it, cameras and such..." Yukino Yukinoshita shook her head regretfully.

"As long as people can't see it, that's enough. We can use makeup and clothing to make up for everything else, right?" Shiina Mahiru said with a smile.

"This seems feasible!" Yui Yuigahama said happily.

"This is indeed feasible, but it depends on whether the ability will be useful."

"Let's try it now."

Xia Sheng got up, went down the stairs, and then used his ability to come back up.

Yukino and the others kept looking at the stairwell, but Natsuo's appearance did not elicit any reaction from them.

They were still looking at the stairwell.

Xia Sheng was delighted to see this and walked towards the three of them.

He didn't move into the three women's line of sight to block their view, because he wasn't invisible.

When he approached the three women, they didn't look at him; instead, they continued to gaze at the stairwell.

Xia Sheng's arrival went completely unnoticed by them.

It seems that it is indeed useful.

How will it be discovered?

Natsumi, feeling playful, looked at Yukino Yukinoshita's calm face as she gazed at the top of the stairs, then extended his index finger and poked her cheek.

A smooth, slippery sensation came from my fingertips.

"What are you doing?" Yukino Yukinoshita tilted her head and looked at him expressionlessly.
