However, she wasn't there to steal a man. The real reason she transferred schools was simply to confirm with Saya about her painlessness and to express her gratitude to him.

So after sensing Kaguya's hostility, Asashita Fujino waved to Saya and walked towards the spot that Keine had arranged for her.

"They've even followed you to the school! When are you going to bring them home? I remember you have quite a few empty rooms, don't you?"

Kaguya made a completely unfunny joke at Saiyu's cold shoulder, making Saiyu involuntarily swallow hard.

I felt like she was implying something, so it was best not to respond.

Having made this decision decisively, Saya didn't even have the heart to explain, and could only tell her the truth very seriously.

"There's really nothing between me and her, at least not in the way you think."

Saya, who only felt that Asashita Fujino's arrival was nothing more than adding a troublesome person, covered his head in distress. His expression, which looked like he was troubled by being pestered by a girl, made the other male classmates who had been watching him wish they could eat him alive.

So he's getting annoyed that a pretty girl is approaching him? Is it because he's worried about trouble at home, or is he deciding whose girl to date tonight? wihl

Why doesn't he just die? What's the point of him hogging so many resources?

If this jealousy could be put into words, Sawa would probably have melted from the sourness.

Chapter 362 Mountains and Rivers Meet Again

Just as Saya was pondering how to respond to Kaguya's questions, Renya, the only cold-faced beauty in the class whom everyone thought had nothing to do with Saya and had only exchanged a few words with, suddenly walked into the classroom from outside.

"Excuse me for bothering you, Saya-kun, could you come over here for a moment? I have something I want to talk to you about."

Looking at Sōyū with a serious expression, Rinya asked him a question.

"Um, what's wrong?"

Although Sawa didn't know what had happened, he deduced from her expression that something important had occurred. He decisively stood up and asked Aiye a question.

At the same time, he didn't forget to glance at Kaguya behind him. Although they were at school, he was still there to protect her, and he should ask for her consent before doing anything.

"In short, it's a very important matter. I hope you can understand, Miss Yuzaki. It's of great importance and may even threaten your safety."

When Saya followed Saya's gaze and saw Kaguya frowning, clearly unhappy, Koya quickly understood what he meant and whispered in a voice only the three of them could hear.

"I understand. Just be careful."

Kaguya rarely loses her temper over such serious matters. After hesitating for a moment, she gave Saya a brief instruction and then turned her head toward the window.

Having received Kaguya's permission, Saya naturally said nothing more and followed Renya towards the school gate.

"Now can we talk about what exactly happened?"

Zuo You frowned as he looked at the girl who had walked ahead of him. He hadn't even asked her about the details of the Western Lands they had just captured, so why was she taking the initiative to approach him?

Or is it that the members of the Truth Church, still harboring malicious intentions, have attacked the distillery again?

"It's about those guys who escaped from the distillery before."

Lianye's furrowed brows never relaxed, and his tone of voice revealed a hint of anxiety.

"That shouldn't be too difficult for you, right? You managed to win each other over the first time, so surely you can do it a second or third time?" - A small fortune.

But he remembered that the strange creatures imprisoned in the distillery were generally not that strong. At most, the two he encountered the first time he escaped were a bit troublesome.

"It's not as simple as you think. We caught them one by one back then, but this time they've all been released. If it were that easy to solve the problem, that would be great."

Lianye shook his head. It was still a matter of insufficient manpower. The distillery itself could handle some ordinary monsters with its equipment and numbers, but after being attacked by the True Word Church...

"So, you want me as a temporary worker? I'm already helping you solve your problems, I can't let it affect my life, can I?"

Sōyū narrowed his eyes. He wasn't against dealing with strange entities, but wanting to do it himself was different from being asked to do it by someone else. He didn't want to be asked to do it without permission.

"No, Qingjiu has already made preparations for the manpower issue. The winery has accumulated some experience over the years, but it just didn't have time to develop it before. Besides, Qingjiu was also very averse to using that stuff back then."

Zuoyou has already proven to them with his actions that, for the time being, even if you add up all the breweries together, they're not enough for him to manage on his own.

Sōyū pursed his lips, his eyes filled with even deeper doubt.

"One of the weirdos has infiltrated the school. Don't you think they should come looking for you?"

Sighing, Ye glanced at Zuoyou and then spoke.

"Huh? You've infiltrated the school, so you should be the ones doing the dirty work. Do you think I'll get some kind of advantage if I do it?"

Sōyu scratched his head. It was certainly not good news that a weirdo had infiltrated the school, but to be honest, it didn't seem to have much to do with him.

"No, the main problem is that this thing is different from ordinary anomalies. Dealing with it is extremely difficult, even for our distillery. It's not as easy as just capturing it."

Lianye shook his head and added another sentence.

Sōyū stopped in his tracks, standing there unsure of what to say.

He shouldn't have provoked this guy who specifically named him and threatened to cause him trouble, right?

Or is it another mole within the distillery?

"I'm increasingly confused by what you're saying..."

Sōyū stopped mid-sentence. He didn't even need to look at the wary expression on Rin'yō's face; just looking at the woman in front of him, surrounded by a throng of admirers, he already knew the answer. To correct himself, this woman, in truth, did have a tiny bit of a connection to him.

For Sōyū, it's not a good thing that the girl he promised to never see again could meet under these circumstances.

And at this moment, he finally understood why the Alliance Night Society said that this guy couldn't be dealt with simply by capturing him.

And the other person seemed to see Saya looking at her, and looked in his direction as well.

A slight smile curved the corner of her eye, which had a beauty mark under its eye, as if she had found some interesting prey. The girl's heavily made-up face revealed an extremely happy smile. Even though Sawa wasn't wearing that familiar pumpkin head, the strange creature was still extremely sensitive to things like auras.

She could guarantee with absolute certainty that this guy was the same one who ignored her pleas for help, abandoned her in the distillery's laboratory, and walked away.

"I've been searching so hard for you! As you said, this is what they mean by 'we'll meet again someday,' right?" whl

Ignoring the boys fawning over her like lapdogs, the girl walked up to Saya, extended her hand to him, and smiled.

Chapter 363 I suggest you go sell tea.

Saiyuu had a strong impression of this guy. How should he put it? He was probably the first anomaly he encountered when he came to this world, so it was impossible for him not to remember him. Kawashita Tomie, a name he knew all too well.

A synonym for trouble.

A disgusting, persistent nuisance; a troublesome source that's hard to deal with.

Saga could certainly chop her up in public, or even call on Renya for help, he could use a time stop to chop her up and throw her into hell.

The problem is that this is clearly not enough. This thing cannot be killed by normal means. In fact, if she dares to swagger into a place like a school, she must have a backup plan somewhere.

As long as every single cell in her body isn't wiped out, this thing is immortal. In other words, even if she casually spits out some phlegm, there's a possibility that a living person could grow out of it later.

That's why the brewery didn't directly take action against her, and it's no wonder that Sasuke looked at her like she was a plague god back then.

"I don't think there's anything strange about this, nor does it count as fate. If possible, you should just stay in the same place as before."

Sōyu covered his head and glanced at his status bar.

Just as he had guessed, the buff called [Charm Curse] rose up again.

Unfortunately, compared to the blessing of the goddess shimmering with seven-colored light and the blessing of the supreme mother goddess emanating ominous black mist, this time, the special effects were a notch below.

Just as Sawa was struggling with how to get rid of this thing.

The blessing Aqua had bestowed upon him suddenly swelled up as if provoked, pushing the curse buff out of his status bar.

Is this even possible?

Sawa's lips twitched. Aqua was...

But since this was a good thing for him, Saya naturally didn't say anything.

"You're still completely ignoring me like before, which really hurts me."

With a pretentious gesture, she placed her fingers under her eyes as if wiping away nonexistent tears, and looked at Saya with eyes that seemed to be streaked with tears.

"Can't your chains work against this thing? I remember she used that thing back then too."

Saya acted as if he hadn't seen her at all, helplessly turning his head to look at Renya, who had somehow produced a pair of glasses that should temporarily block this guy's charm, and asked.

"We can trap this one, but what about the others? This thing has already escaped for two days. Who knows how many pieces of flesh she has buried throughout Tokyo for rebirth?"

Renya sighed. Kawashita Tomie actually knew her, but the reason she could be so brazen was that she must have a powerful backup plan to support her.

You should know that the reason we were able to capture her before was because we mobilized the entire winery and almost turned Tokyo upside down. We also had to use the complete Catalogue of Banned Books at that time to capture her.

Now that the Catalogue of Forbidden Books is down, catching her again will be extremely difficult.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to Sayu for help. Now, the only thing she can rely on is whether this boy, who keeps bringing her surprises, can come up with a solution.

"Well, you've really given me a huge problem. By the way, even if she's restrained, can she still commit suicide?"

Sōyū looked troubled, which shows that there was a reason why he avoided this thing in the first place.

Tomie, aside from being indestructible and possessing that disgusting charm, doesn't have any other special abilities; otherwise, she would be even more of a headache for him.

"If you keep ignoring me and talking like this, it will make me feel very uncomfortable. Please don't ostracize me, okay?"

She moved closer to Saya, sniffled pitifully, and then looked up into Saya's eyes and said...

She refused to believe that anyone could ignore her charm, which was why she was willing to risk being exposed to the winery and appear at the school.

Sōyū still didn't even want to look at her. He simply reached out and pushed her face, which was blocking his way, aside before continuing to discuss with Rinya how to deal with this clingy girl.

"There's no way around it. Even if this one is completely trapped, another one with the same thoughts and memories will soon appear. She's basically a walking source of trouble." Lianye shook his head again. The most crucial problem is that each Tomie who appears seems like an independent individual, which makes it even more difficult to deal with.

Of all the strange things released from the entire distillery, this is arguably the most difficult to deal with.

The only consolation is that, unlike other weirdos who like to actively hurt others, Tomie doesn't seem to have any intention or action to harm innocent people.

But that doesn’t mean she’s harmless.

Her terrifying allure is no joke. Those influenced by her charm, over time, will eventually become mindless zombies with only the desire to possess her, worse than dead.

Moreover, this is a passive skill that works for everyone, regardless of age or gender. In other words, given the time and resources, paralyzing the entire country is only a matter of time.

Sayu had read the original work and knew how terrifying her harm was. He could even sense it from the group of boys behind her looking at him with eyes full of jealousy.

Right now, they're just fanatically pursuing Tomie. But as their influence deepens, it will evolve into a desire to eliminate everyone around her and seize everything she has.
