The rest were almost all men who tried to flirt with or pursue her. Even though killing these men would have been a complete waste of time for Rika, she still killed them out of sheer disgust.

As for the rest, they can no longer be called ordinary people. They were low-level sorcerers dispatched by the sorcery world after Rika was discovered using magic to kill people.

When Rika first met the sorcerer, she thought her crimes were finally going to be punished. But when she killed the sorcerer with absolute power, she knew that no one could shake her love for Eto.

After six years of training, Rika's magical power reserves have long since reached the top level. Compared to her former self who couldn't control her spells, her control over spells has reached an extremely powerful level.

[Falling in Love] is no longer a passive ability that cannot be turned off, but an active ability that can be turned on and off at will. In addition, based on [Falling in Love], she has derived a new special ability called [Delusion Creation]. Using this ability, Rika can rationalize anything within a certain range, which is equivalent to a youth version of cognitive alteration.

Under the effect of [Delusion Creation], the sorcerer poses a negligible threat to Rika. The sorcerer, who originally represented danger, has become a signal for Rika to move away...

On this day, Rika completed her transfer as usual and arrived at her new school. Her outstanding appearance and unique temperament attracted the attention of the whole class when she stood on the podium to introduce herself.

Even the teachers couldn't help but sigh:

"This child is absolutely beautiful; I have never seen such a beautiful woman before..."

The instant those words left his mouth, he felt his body temperature drop several degrees. He shivered and exclaimed:

"Why is it suddenly so cold? It's summer right now!"

Unbeknownst to him, in a world he could not see, a pale, twisted monster opened its chrysanthemum-shaped maw, almost swallowing him whole.

The reason she's still alive is because Rika doesn't want to leave again so soon after arriving in a new environment. She says:

"No, Yuta, it's not the right time yet."

Upon hearing this, the cursed spirit Yigu, who was about to swallow his teacher whole, stopped, withdrew his mouth, and returned behind Rika.

Sitting in her seat, Rika skillfully turned the pages of her book. When the teacher's voice rang in her ears, she turned her head to look at the cherry blossom tree swaying in the breeze outside the window.

In reality, Rika could get everything she wanted with her beauty and the [Falling in Love] technique; continuing to go to school would just be a waste of time.

But Rika's beautiful eyes could see further; she knew that students were more suitable as prey than adults with stable social structures.

Besides, the identity of a student is an excellent disguise. No one would ever suspect that a high school girl with excellent grades and conduct could be a fugitive murderer who has killed a hundred people...

Just as Rika was pondering how to find the next suitable target, her eyes suddenly noticed a strange change in the sky outside the window.

A layer of jet-black fluid swept across the sky, encompassing the area including the school. Rika frowned slightly, unsure of what it was, but instinct told her something was wrong.

Before Rika could figure out what was going on, she saw a woman in a black uniform appear in the campus below. She recognized the uniform; it belonged to the Jujutsu High School.

[The new sorcerer has arrived so quickly? Is that her spell? This is troublesome...]

Rika pondered. Although she wasn't clear on the situation, she knew that staying here would definitely be disadvantageous for her. So, Rika raised her hand and said:

"Teacher, my stomach isn't feeling well, can I go to the infirmary?"

The teacher naturally did not object to this reason and readily agreed to Rika's legitimate request.

Of course, Rika didn't actually go to the infirmary. She went downstairs on her own initiative, wanting to leave early, but unexpectedly bumped into the woman in the black uniform in front of the teaching building.

The woman was somewhat surprised to see Rika. After regaining her composure, she said:

"I really didn't expect you to show up on your own initiative. I thought it would take a long time, Rika Kimoto."

Hearing this, Rika's face darkened. The other person recognized her and was clearly there for her. She silently activated the [Fall of Love] spell, preparing to buy time for the woman before her to fall in love with her. She feigned surprise:

How do you know my name?

"Stop pretending, your acting skills are mediocre in my opinion."

The woman smiled, but her expression immediately turned cold.

"You killed so many people, and you thought you could get away with it? Now, what do you have to say?"

"Murder? Me?"

Rika feigned surprise, taking two steps back and putting on a pitiful expression:

"I recently awakened a spell, and I thought you were looking for me because of this... I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone, someone must be framing me!"

Rika's acting skills exploded at this moment; if someone were unaware of the situation, they might truly be fooled by her.

But the woman was clearly prepared; she snorted coldly and revealed Rika's information:

"Kimoto Rika was born in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture. When she was five years old, her mother died for unknown reasons. Two days before starting elementary school, she went hiking with her father. Her father disappeared, and she survived alone."

That same year, you met Yuta Etotsu at the hospital. When you were eleven, Yuta Etotsu died in a car accident. Driven by intense obsession, he transformed into a Special Grade Cursed Spirit and made a contract with you…

The woman gradually revealed information about Rika, and with each revelation, Rika's feigned pitifulness diminished, until the woman spoke of Otsukoku's transformation into a cursed spirit after death, at which point Rika completely dropped her pretense.

"I never expected you to know me so well."

Rika sighed and gave a sweet smile:

"Can you tell me, who among you knows this information?"

The woman knew perfectly well what those words meant, but she still said them:

"It's just me."

"I see."

Rika smiled, a smile so beautiful that just one glance could give anyone the illusion that "she likes me." With that smile, Rika said:

"In that case, I'll be safe as long as I kill you."

"of course."

The woman showed no nervousness whatsoever; instead, she took this opportunity to introduce herself:

"My name is Natsumi Eri. Although you probably don't know me, my spirit manipulation technique can make your spirit boyfriend your own. Are you ready?"

Chapter 114: Our Love is Pure and Simple

Facing off alone against Kimoto Rika, who possesses top-tier combat power, Natsuyou Eri would be lying if she said she wasn't panicked. However, in order to obtain the top-tier cursed spirit Otsukoku Yuuta, who possesses a massive amount of cursed power, and in order to catch up with Gojo Satoru's pace, she must become stronger at all costs.

Having managed to set up a trap and stand before Kimoto Rika all by herself, Natsuyou Eri was not without confidence in her victory. Over the years, she had subdued many cursed spirits, including the top-tier cursed spirit [Tamamo-no-Mae incarnation]. Coupled with her understanding of Kimoto Rika, she was confident of winning.

At the start of the battle, Natsumi Eri threw out a few centipede spirits to test the waters. These centipede spirits were highly poisonous, and if they touched Rika, they would not kill her, but they would temporarily paralyze her senses.

However, due to the obsessive protectiveness of the cursed spirit Yi Gu towards Rika, the centipede cursed spirit was smashed into two pools of blood before it even got close.

Having witnessed the terrifying destructive power of the cursed spirit, Eri Natsuyou's eyes lit up, and her desire to obtain the Eri bone deepened.

Just as she was about to unleash some trash talk, she took advantage of their surprise and used the strongest Rainbow Dragon to forcibly separate Otsuku and Rika, then personally dealt with Rika.

Strangely, she inexplicably shifted her gaze from the cursed spirit Yigu to Rika beside her. Looking at Rika's smiling eyes and the mole on her lips, a strange emotion welled up in her heart.

[I just realized, wow, this girl is so beautiful! Even though I'm not interested in women, I have to admit I'm impressed...]

Natsumi Eri sighed inwardly, her hand unconsciously touching her chest. Sensing the sensation, her heartbeat quickened uncontrollably. Without a doubt, this was the feeling of being moved.

"Miss Xia You seems to be feeling unwell. Is she not feeling well?"

From afar came Rika's sweet voice. She stood with her hands behind her back, her eyebrows curved, and gave Natsumi Eri a charming smile.

That smile made Natsumi Eri feel like she was basking in a spring breeze, and she couldn't help but recall the happy times she had in high school. However, Shoko and Gojo's faces had all been replaced with Rika's.

This situation was supposed to continue indefinitely, until Natsumi Eri saw Rika stroking the head of the cursed spirit Otsukotsu and saying:

"Kill her, Yigu."

As soon as the words were spoken, the cursed spirit Yigu opened its mouth wide, roaring Rika's name, and charged madly towards Natsuyu Eri.

Natsumi Eri's pupils contracted, realizing something was wrong. Just as she was about to retaliate, she discovered that Rika's spell [Falling in Love] was still affecting her. If she didn't break free from the spell's effect, she would definitely be beaten to death on the spot by the cursed spirit, Etsukotsu.

However, the effects of [Falling in Love] accumulate over time. Unless you kill Rika immediately, it will be extremely difficult to strike again, unless...

Rika stood still, just as she had looked at those she had killed in the past. But just as Otsuko's claws were about to fall on Natsuyu, she suddenly froze in mid-air. Time seemed to stand still, and even the colors of the world dimmed.

"This is?"

Rika immediately realized something was wrong. She frowned slightly, looked around, and saw a disheveled woman holding scissors beside her.

The woman wore a black coat, and her exposed skin bore traces of dried blood. Her face, hidden by her hair, exuded an aura of extreme curse.

"The first-level cursed spirit, the Slit-Mouthed Woman, can create a simple domain. All actions, including spells, will be frozen until a question is answered."

Natsumi Eri's voice came through. After releasing the Slit-Mouthed Woman to restrain Rika and the Cursed Spirit Otsukotsu, she was finally able to catch her breath.

In order to kill Rika as soon as possible, Natsumi Eri dared not be negligent in the slightest. With a thought, she released the enormous, pale, near-Special Grade Cursed Spirit Rainbow Dragon.

With a roar like a bull's horn, Rainbow Dragon opened its mouth wide at Rika, as if it was about to tear her in two at any moment.

At this moment, Rika was still within the Slit-Mouthed Woman's simplified domain. When the Slit-Mouthed Woman asked resentfully, "Am I beautiful?", Rika, with her usual gentle smile, said:

"This is a really embarrassing question. To be honest, I quite enjoy dealing with people like you. After all, someone like you is perfect as a tool."

As the answer fell, the Slit-Mouthed Woman's simple domain effect disappeared, and with the Rainbow Dragon only a step away from Rika, the Slit-Mouthed Woman's attack landed on Rika.

Seeing this, Natsumi Eri was certain that Rika was dead and had no chance of survival. But at that moment, a shrill scream suddenly appeared on the battlefield. It was the cursed spirit, Otsuko.

Upon realizing that Rika was in imminent danger, the Cursed Spirit Otsukotsu seemed to be provoked and screamed wildly:

"Urika!!!"

Before he finished speaking, the figure of the cursed spirit Yigu suddenly disappeared from the spot. The next moment, he slammed the rainbow dragon that was about to bite Rika into the teaching building next to him, and faced the level one cursed spirit Kuchisake-onna with a palm strike.

Boom!

A palm-shaped crater appeared on the spot, with cracks spreading like a spider web. Natsumi Eri could clearly feel that her connection with the Slit-Mouthed Woman had been severed, and her expression immediately turned solemn.

And what about Rika? Under the protection of the cursed spirit Otsukushi, she only had a few strands of hair cut off by the Slit-Mouthed Woman, and she didn't even have a single bleeding wound.

"How is this possible! How could you survive that attack? This doesn't make sense!"

Natsumi Eri stared in disbelief at the unharmed Rika. She knew very well that if she couldn't get rid of Rika immediately, she would be the loser.

To prevent the situation from developing in a way that was unfavorable to her, Natsume Eri took a deep breath and decided to unleash her only high-burst damage: Extreme Whirlpool.

She painfully compressed and fused more than four thousand cursed spirits, including the top-tier cursed spirit [incarnation of Tamamo-no-Mae]. Soon, a pitch-black vortex composed of many ferocious faces appeared behind her, containing terrifying cursed power that was even enough to raze an entire city to the ground.

Meanwhile, Rika, who was opposite her, kept smiling. She held the cursed spirit Otsukotsu, who had given up attacking Natsuyou in order to protect her, and briefly closed her eyes.

Just now, she felt the same sincere emotions she had felt years ago from this dazed monster, something she was willing to give everything for.

"Youta."

Rika opened her eyes, her gaze filled with love as she looked at the cursed spirit, Otsukushi. She said:

"I like you the most."

Upon hearing this, the cursed spirit Yigu let out a frenzied roar:
