"If this were a Sherlock Holmes script, Liang Yi would have fallen into the Reichenbach Falls together with the guy who took Moriarty's script..."
"Without me..."
"But I'm just an ordinary person, what can I do there? The best thing to do now is to call the police."
"No, the Taima Public Security should be in Ogawa's apartment right now. But can the Taima Public Security really arrest the murderer who orchestrated all this so easily?"
Guilt, hesitation, anxiety, and other negative emotions swept through Light Yagami's heart. If everything developed as he imagined, he would undoubtedly kill them by leading the Anti-Magic Police to Ogawa Apartment...
"I have to go, I can go, I can change everything..."
Why could he change everything? Even Yagami Light himself didn't know. It was just that his heart, already surging with energy, reminded him that he had to go. To redeem and save everything.
He is obviously just an ordinary man, so what makes him have the illusion that he can change everything?
Yagami Light had no time to worry about such trivial matters. He twisted his wrist, feeling a flame burning there. His eyes were scarlet, gleaming with excitement and frenzy that was completely different from the confusion within. At this moment, he seemed like two different people...
He will be the one to defeat destiny.
……
……
She ran, she chased, but she couldn't fly away even if she had wings.
Asagami Fujino clutched her abdomen and fled in a panic towards the direction her fate had led her. She herself didn't understand why she felt this way, as if she could only flee to that place, and be saved.
But where is that?
Just like that, running away, running away.
Asagami Fujino's face was filled with confusion. Recalling the battle just now, her dimmed Mystic Eyes were filled with fear. She had thought that after awakening her Distorted Mystic Eyes, she was invincible, but this false illusion was ruthlessly crushed by Ryougi Shiki.
That battle... no, perhaps it couldn't even be called a battle, but rather a one-sided crushing defeat. The spatial distortion she had caused was effortlessly... shattered.
Yes, they were broken up.
The strange woman in a kimono casually waved the short knife in her hand, and the shockwave from the twisted devil's eye disappeared into thin air.
Even if he used the power of the Distorted Mystic Eye to apply it to the supporting structure inside the bridge, causing the concrete slab to collapse and crash down on the strange woman, he would still be able to cut through the thousand-pound concrete slab with a single stroke of a short knife, like cutting tofu...
There couldn't be anything more ridiculous than this! Even though she was in a mysterious side world, Asagami Fujino still felt that her worldview had been severely damaged.
Just as the battle reached its climax, the intense pain from the wound in the abdomen where Keita Minato and his men had stabbed her was enough to make Asagami Fujino unable to continue fighting. Her Mystic Eyes also lost their effectiveness due to her inability to concentrate.
However, the goal was achieved.
She killed Keita Minato who had hurt her, and after that, she was rebelling against fate.
In this way, Asagami Fujino fled all the way and stumbled to the door of Ogawa Apartment. The warm yellow light from the hallway shone into her eyes, giving her a warm feeling like returning home.
The blurred lights even caused double images to appear in Asagami Fujino's sight, transforming the place into a bizarre paradise...
Asagami Fujino's body collapsed to the ground, and she curled up, her hands covering her abdomen, and crawled towards the automatic sensor door of Ogawa's apartment, trying to get in.
Returning to Ogawa Apartment is like returning to basics.
Just before entering Ogawa's apartment, Asagami Fujino tilted her head and looked back.
Not far away, Ryougi Shiki held a knife in one hand and lowered her head slightly.
The neat short hair hit the side of the face, hiding the scratches on the fair face caused by the broken stones in the battle.
Under the dim streetlight, I could barely make out the expression on her face. There wasn't a trace of anger, only pity for Asagami Fujino. That look seemed to show pity for the weak, for the pain Asagami Fujino had endured, for her life story...
"It's painful, isn't it? I'm here to relieve your pain."
From a distance, Asagami Fujino could hear Ryougi Shiki's soft moaning.
However, the meaning of ending pain in these two people's minds is completely different. For Ryougi Shiki, it means ending her pain on a physical level. But for Asagami Fujino, Ryougi Shiki is the hunter that Kira mentioned, who wants to end her life and end all her pain.
That's right, for someone like her, the world is hell and the world is pain.
drop--
The sensor door of Ogawa's apartment sensed the creature's approach and slowly opened to both sides. Asagami Fujino struggled to crawl in without hesitation. A few breaths later, Ryougi Shiki also stepped into this unknown territory.
As soon as she walked through the door, Ryougi Shiki's brows furrowed deeply.
"Asagami Fujino, where did they go?"
In just a few seconds, Asagami Fujino disappeared in the first floor hall.
Ryougi Shiki's nostrils twitched slightly, and her expression changed. Although it was faint, she could still smell the scent of blood on the first floor of Ogawa Apartments. It was the blood of a living person... There had been a bloody incident here not long ago.
But when he looked around, he didn't see any bloodstains or signs of fighting. Asagami Fujino, who had stepped in, disappeared without a trace.
"Something's strange." Ryougi Shiki tightened his grip on the short sword in his hand.
Even with her Mystic Eyes that could see through death, she didn't find any more clues. Apart from the faint smell of blood, the traces around her were all normal, and there was no trace related to the mysterious side world.
Just when Ryougi Shiki was confused.
The central elevator not far away opened its door automatically, revealing an empty interior.
The cold elevator entrance seemed to possess a wisdom only humans could possess, silently calling out to Ryougi Shiki, "Come in! All your doubts will be answered once you enter this elevator."
Well, now it's almost 100% confirmed—
"There are enemies."
Ryougi Shiki opened her lips slightly and exhaled deeply, clearing away all the distracting thoughts and pressure in her mind.
She might not be able to see as clearly as Light Yagami. Surrounded by fog, she could only sense by instinct that this was a conspiracy against her.
The serial murders committed by Asagami Fujino were only to attract her attention and conduct in-depth investigations. Perhaps she herself did not even know that she was being used. The ultimate target was only her, Ryougi Shiki. Everything she did was just for today's encounter.
This was a trap, a trap set for her long ago.
An ordinary person, faced with such an elaborate trap, might choose to retreat... but Ryougi Shiki is different.
She is a young lady from the Yakuza sect whose character is "If you dare to come, I dare to kill you". In addition, she has awakened the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. She has no fear in the face of the enemy's provocation, and can jump into even the most carefully laid traps without blinking an eye.
Ryougi Shiki raised her hand and touched her own Mystic Eye.
These demonic eyes and the short blade in her hand are the source of her confidence.
She is fearless.
"As long as we eliminate the person hiding behind this, all the questions will be solved. The strange smell of blood, and the disappearance of Asagami Fujino..."
Ryougi Shiki took a step forward and walked calmly into the trap.
There seemed to be nothing unusual going on inside the elevator, but even before she pressed the number button, the elevator began to operate automatically. As the display board lit up, the elevator quickly ascended and soon reached the fourth floor.
drop--
The elevator door slowly opened, and under the quiet moonlight, the figure in front could be vaguely seen.
A man wearing a black coat, with an expression of eternal sorrow on his face, stood there quietly with his hands behind his back.
Ryougi Shiki narrowed her eyes, held the dagger across her chest, and approached him step by step. Her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception activated silently, and she soon discovered a scene that shocked her.
The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could hardly see his "death".
Simply facing him, she felt a nauseating pressure. Through the deep black coat, Ryougi Shiki could only see the nearly vanishing line.
'What kind of monster is this?'
Such a strange thought came to her mind. Even when she faced Miss Makima, Ryougi Shiki had never encountered such a situation. Although Miss Makima had great destructive power and the ability to resurrect, she could still see the end point that humans should have.
It was also because she had witnessed Miss Makima's shock wave that she was able to calmly deal with Asagami Fujino.
And what about the person in front of me?
The thinnest of the dead lines doesn't seem like a human, but more like a demon in human skin... No, as far as the demons that Ryougi Shiki has dealt with are concerned, their dead lines wouldn't be so thin.
My heart beats faster unconsciously.
Ryougi Shiki still chose to greet him: "Who are you?"
Volume 1: 106 The Manifestation of Hell
"Magician Araya Soren, the one who killed Shiki."
"It's really ironic. This was supposed to be a matter between the two of us, but I didn't expect the police to come and destroy our lives in vain."
"Public Security? What did you do? What are your intentions?"
"True wisdom... I created a world that ends in a single day, to test whether people can experience different kinds of death. You met Asagami Fujino, and you should have realized that they are both compatriots, but also killing machines, the complete opposite of Ryougi Shiki, simply sacrifices prepared for you."
"I prepared a lot, including the Shinrikyo Apocalypse virus, the series of building falls, and Asagami Fujino. However, due to some inexplicable changes, only Asagami Fujino played a role in the end, but the ultimate goal was still achieved."
"You're standing here."
As he spoke, the man named Araya Soren took a step forward, approaching Ryougi Shiki step by step with tremendous pressure.
"Ryougi Shiki, Musho is your chaotic impulse, the origin. Looking at this darkness, I remember your name."
Araya Soren slowly raised his head. Even in good light, with their eyes meeting, Ryougi Shiki couldn't see his face clearly. Instead, the shadows beneath his bangs and eye sockets were like black holes, constantly drawing the gaze and soul into them.
“You’re the culprit—!!”
The man named Araya Soren was talking to himself the entire time. He'd said that before he arrived, public security officers had already entered the building, but Ryougi Shiki could only feel a deathly silence, which meant that those officers were probably in grave danger...
There is only one thing that can be confirmed, this is the enemy!
Ryougi Shiki decided not to waste any more time talking to her. She leaped up in her pure white kimono and ran towards Araya Sōren at a speed that would be difficult for an ordinary person to react to.
Although his death line is almost disappearing, it still exists. As long as he cuts it in the moment when the opponent fails to react, he will die anyway.
Facing Ryougi Shiki's surprise attack, Araya Soren let his hands fall naturally to his thighs, seemingly completely unresponsive. However, the dim Buddhist beads around his neck began to glow slightly.
Araya Soren spoke:
"Buju, Vajra, Snake and Scorpion——"
It seemed to be some obscure Buddhist text, but as it spoke, it was accompanied by an inexplicable power. An invisible golden halo, emanating from the Araya Soren Lotus, shot outwards from all around him. In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire corridor.
With unstoppable momentum, Ryougi Shiki encountered the golden ripples, and in an instant, it transformed into a silver-black invisible rope-like body that bound Ryougi Shiki's limbs, leaving her trapped in mid-air and unable to move.
This is almost impossible for Ryougi Shiki, whose physical skills have reached or even surpassed the peak of human beings.
But the fact is, she was tied up.
There was no time to react at all, and he was captured on the spot like a reckless person who had entered an unfamiliar territory.
Araya Soren raised his hand, fingers spread wide, palm facing the center of Ryougi Shiki's brow. His voice remained icy, "I, Araya Soren, accept your body."
When her palm was about to touch Ryougi Shiki's eyebrows, she reluctantly swung her forearm holding the dagger and fiercely chopped at Araya Souren's dirty hand that was stretched out towards her.
If a normal person was hit by Ryougi Shiki, even if there was no fatality, he would inevitably bleed to death or have his hand broken. But on Araya Soren, only a shallow scratch was left on his body, and not even blood splattered.
The big hand suddenly exerted force and firmly grasped Ryougi Shiki's face in mid-air.
"You are childish. A Buddhist relic is buried in this left hand. Even the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception cannot see the mortal part."
Ryougi Shiki's body was trembling slightly, not knowing whether it was because of fear or anger, or perhaps the long-dormant fighting cells in her body were gradually being activated... In short, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception burst into a breathtaking light, and she slashed at Araya Souren's left arm again.
This time, Ryougi Shiki focused all her energy on staring at the death line on his body.
It's not that it is invisible, but it takes Ryougi Shiki more energy to find the answer from the fog. Perhaps the Buddha's relics naturally have the ability to block the mysterious power.
She saw, and she slashed, cutting off Araya Soren's left arm along with the silver-black rope-like body that bound his limbs.
With a few flashes, Ryougi Shiki immediately widened the distance between herself and Araya Soren.
With the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception at full power, she could clearly see the "three-layer barrier" that was constantly rotating on the ground. The barrier was glowing with golden light and had obscure scriptures engraved on it.
"The barrier is just a state of mind... If that's the case, there's nothing I can't cut through."
Ryougi Shiki changed her grip on the short blade, pointing the tip downwards. With exceptionally gentle movements, she controlled the blade's contact with the ground. At that moment of contact, it landed squarely on the boundary line of the barrier.
The seemingly indestructible barrier was shattered like a mirror.
"Wow~ Nice reaction, but there are still two left."
"too slow."
Ryougi Shiki suddenly exerted force on her wrist, and like passing an item between friends by "throwing", she casually threw the short blade in her hand out, and a graceful silver-white parabola crossed the night sky.
However, Ryougi Shiki didn't pass the blade to some invisible air friend, but to—
Myself in one second!
The short sword spun at high speed in the night sky, killing and breaking the golden barrier the moment it touched it, while Ryougi Shiki's people flashed like ghosts behind the sword.
