The man reacted quickly.

"Shh-"

"Here they come."

"..."

Although she didn't notice anything, Nightingale still chose to believe Ian beside her.

There is no other reason.

She had no choice but to believe him - otherwise, the little girl's problem would never be solved.

"Only one?"

Feeling the magic power flowing in the air, Ian couldn't help but think so in his heart.

"This isn't right..."

After all, according to the little girl, the ghosts that appeared in this abandoned hospital should be pairs.

Why is there only one now?

Before Ian could figure out what was going on, more "news" came from the dark.

"We said there's no need to block your breath!"

"This is an abandoned hospital! It's late at night, no one will notice us!"

"Be careful...if others see us, something terrible will happen."

"No, no! For such a long time, no one has noticed our existence. I don't think we will be discovered tonight. Let's happily decide. We are going to try this aura-blocking technique!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ian felt the presence of another breath.

The reason why I didn't notice it just now seems to be the "blocking of breath" he mentioned.

This is a class-specific skill for the Assassin that can effectively hide relevant information belonging to the holder.

From the conversation just now, it seems that the "Blocking Aura" he possesses can even partially benefit his companions.

But precisely because the "breath blockage" was lifted, the man discovered another problem at this moment.

How could it be so familiar...

Yes.

Just as Ian sighed at this moment, the two auras echoing in the hospital were so familiar.

The man could even feel a trace of his own mark on it.

And speaking of it...

The tone of their voice just now was also very familiar.

and many more……

Could it be...

Before Ian had time to think it all through, a scream was heard in the aisle.

"What is this!"

"Who?! Who set this thing up here?! I can't move my body at all!"

"Me too... but this feels familiar, like it was set up by Abe-sama."

"..."

Listening to the sounds coming from the darkness, Nightingale realized that the things Ian set up did play a certain role.

just now……

He had indeed caught something.

"Ian, what should we do now?" the nurse asked. "It seems like you did catch something."

Nightingale thought this would be a very difficult question to explain.

After all, judging from the little girl's reaction, this is definitely not a simple existence.

Even if we restrict them now, it won't be as easy as we imagine.

however--

Unlike Nightingale's slightly nervous reaction, Ian became more relaxed after hearing the voice coming from the darkness.

He stood up and spoke to the legendary nurse beside him.

"Do not worry."

"The matter has been resolved."

"Has it been solved?" Nightingale was stunned.

"Didn't it just begin?"

"Those things you caught wouldn't surrender so easily, right?"

"Generally speaking, it's not that simple."

"but--"

Ian extended his hand to Nightingale beside him.

"This time it's different."

"Nightingale, do you believe me?"

"..."

Facing the man's outstretched hand, Nightingale's expression seemed a little hesitant, but in the end, she nodded.

"at this point."

"All I can do is trust you."

"That's all right—I won't let you down."

As the man said this, he took Nightingale's hand and led her out of the darkness.

At the same time, he said:

"The next words—"

“It might be a little thrilling.”

"Thrilling?" Nightingale felt her heart beating faster.

After all, so far, everything the man said has been turned into reality without any difference.

"For example -"

"Like the flames coming towards us."

"what?!"

As soon as Ian finished speaking, fierce flames rushed towards the two of them like a tide, as if to completely submerge them.

"This……"

Nightingale subconsciously reached out and protected herself.

But she knew it would be useless - because the flames didn't look like they could be stopped by her hands.

But Nightingale soon discovered that she had not suffered fatal injuries.

On the contrary, she felt that everything was no different from before.

The nurse slowly opened her eyes and found Ian standing in front of her.

Holding the Excalibur Gallatin, he had completely protected Nightingale behind him.

"Don't worry, with me here, there won't be any problems."

"and--"

"This will be someone who can help us."

"No, or should I say it's a ghost."

As Ian said this, he broke the flames that were blowing towards the two of them.

He already knew exactly what this haunted incident was about.

Looking at the two stunned figures in the fire, the man spoke in the most gentle and nostalgic tone:

"Shuten, Ibaraki."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

573. Reunion with Shuten Ibaraki's Main Pet/Nightingale's Girlfriend Speech (4k)

Just like the name Ian was calling at this moment.

The ghosts that appeared before the man were none other than Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji from Mount Oe.

At this moment, they have not changed at all from many years ago, and still look as petite as before.

The moment they heard Ian's voice, the two little ghosts who were bound by the magic circle he had set up looked towards the place where the noise came from.

The moment the man's figure came into their eyes, they had similar yet different reactions.

The first one was Ibaraki Douji. Her whole body was covered in flames, and the moment she saw Ian, the intensity of her magic power seemed to increase several times in an instant.

This is a reaction that only occurs when you are excited.

Even without much change in expression, this can be proved.

At that moment, the originally dim corridor was illuminated clearly.

But what was different from her overly excited expression was what she said next.

"Lord Abe..."

Yes.

Because she was so excited, the only words Ibaraki Douji could remember were the name of the person she decided to follow and serve for the rest of her life.

This is the influence on thinking brought by the Berserker class.

The great Onmyoji who shines brightly in Heian-kyō and eventually guides the ghosts back to history in a natural way.

Although Shuten-douji's first reaction was quite similar to Ibaraki-douji's, she did not lose her ability to think because of this.

On the contrary,

She started to speak incoherently because she was overstimulated.

"Uncle, big, big, big, big—!"

"How how how how how how how are you here?"

"..."

In this situation, Nightingale, who was standing behind Ian, didn't know what words to use to describe her feelings.

She had thought about Ian using the so-called magic circle and talismans to execute the ghosts wandering here.

But now it seems that this is clearly not the case.

Rather than executing or capturing the two little devils in front of him, it would be more accurate to say that he recognized them.

Could it be that... he really makes a living with this skill?

"Long time no see." Ian smiled and looked at the two little ghosts in front of him.

Men still feel more or less guilty about them.

After all, at the end of their lives in Heian-kyo, they witnessed their own deaths.

The torture caused by that would definitely not be much less than that of Tamamonomae.

The man gathered his magic power and then released the magic circle that bound the two little ghosts.

Almost at the moment he regained his freedom, Shuten-douji rushed towards Ian, then leaped up and pounced directly on his face.
