A supporting character in a romance anime? I became a god using a rat talisman.

"If I were to detach myself from my human identity, I would have no right to talk about any kind of compassion across species."

"So as a human being, it is only natural that I feel grief and anger over the tragic death of my companion."

Charlie bared his teeth.

"No matter how you try to justify it, from any angle, the fact remains that you humans slaughter animals and destroy nature!"

"So what?"

Asagiri Aya retorted, "Even if there had never been any humans in this world, animals in nature would still tear each other apart and hunt each other to survive! That's called the struggle for survival."

"It's nothing more than finding a high-sounding excuse for their bloodthirsty instincts, forcibly pinning all the blame on humanity!"

"You're not avenging animals." Asagiri Aya took a step forward, Shirai already climbing onto her shoulder. "You just want to kill; everything else is just an excuse."

There was a two-second silence on the riverbank. The wind blew across the river, carrying the smell of ice shards.

Charlie's lips slowly curved into a smile.

"Well said."

"But you should worry about how to give your last words before your blood vessels freeze and burst."

The ice spread extremely quickly. In just a few minutes of conversation, the translucent ice had covered most of Asagi's chest and even started to extend to her right side.

Asagiri Aya did feel unwell, but she did not show any panic.

The next second, she made a move that Charlie couldn't understand at all.

Asagiri Aya activated the power of the King Pandon card without hesitation.

Then a burst of intense flames erupted from Asagiri Aya's body, enveloping her in a wave of orange-red, high-temperature air.

The layer of ice clinging to Asagiri Aya's body disintegrated and melted at a visible speed, eventually turning into a large cloud of white, scalding steam that rose into the air.

Chapter 240 Not the gorilla I like, instantly killed.

Charlie stared wide-eyed at the scene before him in disbelief.

The girl in front of me, who looks like an insect, not only possesses strange powers, but can also control flames!

But that wasn't the most shocking thing for it.

The question, stemming from a biological instinct, slipped out.

"This is impossible!"

"Forcibly melting the extreme cold ice with this kind of intense fire inside your body, the extreme expansion and contraction of fire and ice will instantly destroy and ruin your entire arm!"

This is a very basic fact of physics.

Just like a red-hot glass suddenly splashed with ice water, or frozen steel being scorched by a raging fire, the internal structural stress will instantly tear it to shreds.

However, after the water vapor dissipates.

Asagiri Aya stood unharmed in the same spot.

She even casually shook her left arm, which had just been completely frozen and scorched by the flames.

Not a single red mark was left on his fair skin.

Before Asagiri Aya could even respond to this shock.

Shinjo Akane, who had been silently observing the situation, finally couldn't help but shake her head and let out a long sigh.

"Hey, you little gorilla, you're so ignorant."

"Asagiri-kun's current form is a human-sized version of the space dinosaur Zetton. Do you know what Zetton is? It's the ultimate weapon that even the original Ultraman was defeated in one hit. Its physical strength is tens of thousands of times that of an ordinary human!"

"The mere physical reaction of ice and fire fusing is nothing more than a tickle to this cosmic dinosaur-sized body."

"Even if you let her take a direct hit from Ultraman's Specium Ray right now, it won't be a problem at all, understand?!"

After Akane Shinjo finishes her explanation,

Asagiri Aya casually flicked her right hand, which had just been through the baptism of ice and fire.

"Since you made the first move, now it's my turn to retaliate."

Charlie panicked completely.

Its brain, a fusion of human and chimpanzee genes, could support its long and rambling pronouncements, but in the face of an absolute disparity in strength, the instinctive fear of its biological instincts prevailed.

The monster in front of him was far beyond his ability to deal with.

Charlie then plunged headfirst into the still-lingering thick fog, attempting to conceal himself under its natural cover.

The thick fog blocked out even the light from the streetlights.

Charlie had absolute confidence in his stealth abilities.

They believed that as long as the distance was maintained, even the most skilled hunter would not be able to pinpoint its location in this thick fog.

However, Charlie made a fatal mistake: he simply did not understand Jaden's mechanisms.

Zetton's teleportation never requires him to rely on the naked eye to lock onto a target.

Just as Charlie thought he had successfully shaken off his pursuers and was preparing to turn into the sewers at the next intersection...

"Pfft!"

A dull thud, like space being torn apart, exploded behind my ears.

Charlie's pupils suddenly contracted into a vertical line.

A hand emerged from a spatial rift behind it.

It easily pierced its chest cavity and seized its heart.

Charlie's body stiffened instantly.

It lowered its head and stared at the hand of a human girl clutching its bleeding heart through the gaping hole in its chest.

"you……"

Charlie managed to squeeze out half a mumbled syllable.

"This is the retaliation of humans who were treated as food by you..."

With a blank expression, Asagiri Aya clenched her five fingers and mercilessly crushed the heart.

Thick blood spurted from between his fingers, and the light in Charlie's eyes instantly faded; his life force was completely extinguished.

Its massive body crashed onto the cold, damp riverbank.

With Charlie's death, the Reijubas card that supported the anomaly lost its magical power supply, and the eerie fog that shrouded the river quickly dissipated like the receding tide, revealing the clear night sky.

The streetlights once again cast their dim yellow light on the riverbank.

Akane Shinjo jogged over from where she had just been standing.

She immediately spotted Asagiri Aya standing behind the gorilla corpse, shaking the blood off her hands.

"Morning mist!"

She immediately ran forward excitedly, completely ignoring the bloodstains on the ground, slapped Asagiri Aya on the shoulder, and began loudly boasting about her achievement.

"I told you! My Spartan devil training method really works wonders!"

"If I hadn't been running you over with my car every day, how could you have mastered Zetton's teleportation so smoothly! It was all worth the gas money I spent!"

Asagiri Aya in her Zetton Girl form originally had an icy, expressionless face.

But seeing his friend like this, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Qian, there doesn't seem to be any necessary connection between a Jeep and taking out a heart..."

"Of course there are! They all unleash their potential on the brink of life and death!" Akane Shinjo waved her hand. "Don't worry about the details."

Asagiri Aya shook her head, too lazy to argue with her.

She crouched down and found Reijubas's card on the corpse.

Aya Asagiri carefully put the cards away and turned to Akane Shinjo for advice.

What should we do with this body?

"If we just leave it here, it'll definitely be on the front page tomorrow morning."

Akane Shinjo stroked her chin and circled Charlie's body twice.

"Call the police."

"This gorilla just admitted to eating humans. There must still be undigested human organs left in its stomach. If the police take it back for an autopsy and cut open its stomach, wouldn't the whole truth be revealed?"

"Then the police can close the case, and we can keep our good deeds hidden. How perfect is that?"

After listening, Asagiri Aya felt that it made perfect sense.

Leaving the trouble to the police is indeed the safest course of action right now, since the two high school girls can't exactly dig a hole and bury the gorilla.

"Okay, let's do it that way."

Seeing that Aya Asagiri nodded in agreement, Akane Shinjo immediately dialed the police.

In a frightened but trying-to-remain calm tone, she reported to the operator that a dressed gorilla carcass had been found on the banks of the Akihabara River. She deliberately lowered her voice and anonymously emphasized that the carcass was very likely related to the recent series of ice sculpture brain-eating cases in Omori Ward.

After calling the police, Shinjo Akane hung up the phone, pulled out her SIM card, broke it in half, and threw it into the river.

"It's done!"

Immediately afterwards, Aya Asagiri activated her ability, instantly taking Akane Shinjo away from this place of trouble.

……

Two hours later.

A large number of fully armed police officers arrived at the scene with sirens blaring, and quickly set up a cordon, sealing off several surrounding blocks.

The anonymous caller specifically emphasized on the phone that the body was the real culprit in the recent series of cannibalism cases.

Therefore, as soon as the forensic doctor arrived at the scene, he immediately conducted an emergency autopsy on the gorilla's body and, as expected, extracted a large number of human tissue remains from its digestive tract.

Upon receiving this irrefutable evidence, the person who felt the greatest sense of relief was none other than Inspector Megure.

Although he had no idea who had killed the monster ape on behalf of Heaven, as long as the case was solved and the real culprit was brought to justice, he could finally report back to those irritable higher-ups.
