The Japanese-fear sorcerer who started by taking in Tomie

"Danger? Me?"

Tomie almost laughed out of anger.

If I were really in that much danger, how could this guy have beaten me up so easily? My face still hurts.

"From today onwards, you're living in my house. Don't even think about running away. Trust me, I'll find you."

Xin Hengyuan stood up and rubbed the redness and swelling on his fist.

My physical condition is still too poor.

Xin Hengyuan frowned as he thought about it.

Tomie paused for a moment, then slowly curled the corners of her mouth into a smile.

That alluring smile is back.

"Oh? Imprisonment play?" She raised her neck proudly like a swan. "So you like this kind of thing."

She knew it.

There is no man in this world who can refuse her.

Based on Tomie's mental process, the man's so-called "beating her" and "imprisonment" were nothing more than a clumsy form of possessiveness.

She was no different from any other man.

They say they don't care, but their actions tell a different story.

He just wanted to possess me all to himself.

She just wanted to use this method to keep herself firmly by his side.

Honestly, you should have said that sooner.

Tomie licked her slightly swollen lips, already plotting how to turn the tables.

"You're overthinking it." Xin Hengyuan rolled his eyes. "I'm just trying to prevent you from hurting other people outside."

Tomie's face froze instantly.

"Let's go back to the classroom." Xin Hengyuan released the mage's hand. "If you dare to say anything out of line, you know the consequences."

As he spoke, Xin Hengyuan took out his key and opened the door.

Only Xinhengyuan has the key to this rooftop. When he got it, he wanted to develop special CGs, but he didn't expect that it would trigger a battle CG in the end.

Life is truly unpredictable; the large intestine encloses the small intestine.

Shin Hengyuan took in Tomie, not so much to prevent her from harming others; the real reason was this—

[Defeat monster Tomie, experience +50]

When Shin Hengyuan beat Tomie to her knees, this voice rang in his mind, indicating that the system regarded Tomie as a monster.

Since defeating Tomie once grants experience, why doesn't Shin Hengyuan try defeating her multiple times to see if he can gain experience again?

If he could, he would become the Sword Saint of Shili Slope!

This isn't Tomie! This is a walking encyclopedia of experience points!

Tomie gritted her teeth, glaring venomously at Shin Hengyuan's retreating figure.

Shin Hengyuan's actions were a great disgrace to Tomie.

Onmyoji!

This guy must be a legendary Onmyoji!

Xinhengyuan! You just wait!

Although Tomie had never seen an Onmyoji in person, she had heard rumors about Onmyoji techniques from other monsters over the years. Therefore, she naturally regarded Shingen as a reclusive Onmyoji.

Moreover, what else could it be but an Onmyoji, who controls unseen forces to bind her movements and is completely immune to her charm?

So what if you're an Onmyoji? I'll make you kneel before me one day!

Tomie thought this with such resentment.

Of course she wasn't afraid of death.

But she hated the pain of dying, hated the ugly appearance of recovering, and most disgustingly, being killed would only increase the number of despicable imposters.

Those counterfeiters who wear her face and steal her things.

Just thinking about it sent chills down Tomie's spine.

Xinhengyuan! I must have you!

Tomie glared angrily at the figure in front of her, then looked at the baseball team members on the ground, and suddenly a brilliant idea flashed in her mind.

Tomie's lips slowly curved into a smile.

Shin Hengyuan naturally knew that, given Tomie's personality, she would never let this matter rest.

If she could swallow this insult, she wouldn't be called Tomie Kawakami, an immortal monster who has lived for nearly a hundred years.

But New Hengyuan is not afraid.

there is always a solution to a problem.

Shin Gengen, who has read the entire Tomie manga series, can be said to be the person who understands her best in the world. He knows Tomie's methods better than she does herself.

Is Tomie plotting how to turn the tables on Shin Hengyuan?

But isn't Shinhengyuan also trying to gain experience by using Tomie?

Both of them have bright futures ahead of them.

Shin Hengyuan returned to his throne with light steps.

The boys in the class all stared at Shin Hengyuan with envy and jealousy. Why? Why did he get to eat lunch with the cute Kawakami? Was it just because he was handsome?

He pulled out a chair and sat down, ignoring the murderous glares from the boys in his class. He casually opened his textbook, pretending to be reading, and then opened the system panel.

【Name: Xinhengyuan】

Race: Human

[Class: Warlock (Wild)]

[Level: 1]

Experience points: 50/300

[Mana Points: 3/3]

……

[Spells: Fire Arrow, Friendship Spell, Wizard's Hand, Lesser Illusion]

[First-Circle Spells: Magic Missile, Shield]

The upgrade requires 300 experience points, but you currently only have 50.

In other words, Tomie needs to be beaten five more times.

Xin Hengyuan pondered for a moment, then he noticed that the mana value column showed [3/3], indicating that the current mana value was full, which meant that magic tricks did not consume mana.

Spellcasting is the easiest form of magic to learn, requiring very little energy; it can be cast simply by absorbing free-floating magic in the air. This is true in Baldur's Gate, and it seems to be the same in this world.

This also confirms another thing.

There is magic in the air of this world!

Without magic, magic tricks simply cannot be performed.

The existence of magic means that there is a high probability that extraordinary powers exist in this world! That means that this world is probably mixed with more than just Junji Ito's horror manga.

Once we bring Tomie home, we'll have to interrogate her properly.

Shin Hengyuan pinched his chin, his gaze fixed on Tomie.

Judging from her appearance, she shouldn't be the original individual.

Not the original Tomie who was dismembered by her teachers and classmates.

In other words, she is one of the split individuals.

The split individuals share each other's memories.

The Tomie individuals are scattered throughout Japan, and perhaps even the world. They have lived for nearly a century, mingling in human society, seducing others, being killed, splitting up, and attracting again—in this process, it is impossible for them to be completely unaware of other "monsters".

Xin Hengyuan put down his textbook and took out his phone.

He began searching.

First, let's talk about those famous Japanese horror tales from my memory—monsters that don't belong to Junji Ito's world.

If these monsters exist, then it means that this world is not simply the world of Junji Itō's horror manga.

Urban legends and horror films such as Kayako, Sadako, Yasha-sama, Kisaragi Station, and Kuchisake-onna.

Xin Hengyuan gradually put down his phone after a while.

As he expected, all of the above-mentioned things existed.

He can find any clues online.

Dude, how come your tiny island nation has so many disasters? It seems like all sorts of monsters and demons are lurking around!

Undeterred, Shin Hengyuan promptly searched for the two strongest combatants in Junji Ito's manga world.

Whirlpool Galaxy and Hell Star!

First, there was the Whirlpool Galaxy. He actually found the region of Kurozuchi Town; the name was indeed there, and it wasn't far from Tokyo. To be precise, Kurozuchi Town was a small rural town on the outskirts of the Tokyo metropolitan area, a little over two hours away by train.

However, no information related to Hellstar was found online. Instead, a website called Hellcom was found!

Xinhengyuan fell into deep thought.

The fact that Hellstar hasn't been found doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Perhaps humans haven't discovered it yet, or perhaps Hellstar hasn't noticed Earth. Neither scenario is good news, but at least we don't have to face it for now.

And this sudden appearance of Hell Communication, Xinhengyuan knew what it was.

Hell Girl - Enma Ai!

It's a very old anime.
