The Kurashiki mother and daughter, along with Miura Yumiko, appeared exhausted, their bodies and minds clearly on the verge of collapse.

After thinking about it, I still feel that this is not the right place to explain the current situation.

So they decided to take them away from here first.

After making up your mind.

Before the Kurashiki mother and daughter and Miura Yumiko could react.

Natsume Ryo's thoughts stirred slightly.

【/tp~~~】

The command was executed instantly.

Om-!

A slight feeling of being pulled apart came from the space.

Natsume Ryo and the other two disappeared instantly.

……

Almost at the same time the four disappeared from the street.

When the brief dizziness caused by the change of space subsides.

After regaining control of their bodies and adapting to the suddenly changed lighting environment, Kurashiki, her daughter, and Miura Yumiko arrived at the bright and spacious underground chamber that Natsume Ryo had built deep underground.

"W-where is this?"

The Kurashiki mother and daughter, along with Miura Yumiko, have not yet fully processed this sudden turn of events.

"Please take a seat."

At that moment, Natsume Ryo's calm voice rang out.

The Kurashiki mother and daughter, along with Miura Yumiko, looked in the direction of the sound.

They saw that Natsume Ryo was already sitting comfortably on a set of beige sofas not far away, with his legs crossed and his gaze calmly watching them.

"who are you?"

Seemingly recalling the method by which Natsume Ryo had just strangled the parasite, the Kurashiki mother and daughter dared not relax easily, as if they were afraid of encountering misfortune at any moment. They instinctively remained vigilant, standing still and not daring to make any further moves.

Natsume Ryo didn't care about the Kurashiki mother and daughter's reaction. He opened the inventory in Creative Mode, quickly swiped his finger across the screen, and found the item he wanted.

A gentle wave.

【Take it out】

【lay down】

boo.

A soft sound.

The Kurashiki mother and daughter tensed up instinctively, and when they looked in the direction of the sound, they were immediately stunned.

Create something out of thin air? !

Chapter 41 The Parasite Makes a Big Secret, and the Kurashiki Mother and Daughter Are Unable to Leave

With a soft yet clearly audible sound, several sets of high-end sofas that looked soft and comfortable suddenly appeared in the previously empty area.

Even on the low table in front of the sofa, several steaming drinks and some exquisitely packaged snacks appeared out of nowhere.

Create something out of thin air? !

After witnessing this scene that completely defied the laws of physics, Kurashiki Rena's pretty face, which had turned pale with fear, was once again covered with deep shock. Her red lips parted slightly, and for a moment she couldn't find any words to describe her feelings.

The same was true of Kurashiki Reika and Miura Yumiko, who were standing next to her.

Yumiko's beautiful eyes widened, and her small mouth opened unconsciously, wide enough to fit an egg.

Li Hua swayed, and if Yumiko hadn't instinctively supported her, she probably would have collapsed to the ground again due to the successive impacts.

Teleportation, levitation, killing monsters with words, and now conjuring up sofas and food out of thin air...

The abilities that Natsume Ryo has just displayed are enough to completely shatter the cognitive system that the three of them have built up over the past ten years.

……

"sit down."

"Aren't you tired of standing?"

Natsume Ryo leaned back comfortably on the main sofa, his gaze sweeping over the three of them without showing any emotion.

It was as if he had just casually performed a few magic tricks.

Rather, it did not demonstrate a miracle that could overturn one's worldview.

finally.

Kurashiki Reika gradually mustered her courage and realized that the most important thing at this moment was to remain calm and figure out the situation first.

then.

She gently tugged at her daughter and niece's hands, signaling them not to make any rash moves, and then took the lead, stiffly walking towards the sofa opposite Natsume Ryo. She sat down carefully, her back straight, her hands neatly placed on her knees, maintaining a posture that was ready to get up at any time.

Seeing this, Rena Kurashiki and Yumiko Miura had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow, sitting down right next to Reika Kurashiki, their bodies tense, like frightened birds.

Seeing that all three had taken their seats, Natsume Ryo continued:

“I know you have many questions and are also afraid.”

"But you should all have noticed."

"The thing that attacked you was no ordinary creature."

After finishing speaking, Natsume Ryo picked up his hot drink and took a sip.

"Excuse me, what exactly is that monster we encountered?"

Upon seeing this, Kurashiki Reika immediately understood the meaning behind Natsume Ryo's actions and hurriedly pressed for details.

Natsume Ryo turned his gaze to Kurashiki Reika and calmly spoke:

"What you just encountered was a monster called a parasite."

Parasite?

The unfamiliar term startled Kurashiki Reika, and Rena and Yumiko also raised their eyes slightly.

Natsume Ryo ignored their reactions and continued explaining to himself:

"The initial form of parasites is not actually like that; they were originally insect-like creatures."

"Extremely small, barely perceptible to the naked eye."

"In the insect stage, the parasite will seek a suitable host. Usually, its first choice when seeking a host is a human. It will invade the body through the ear, nose and other orifices, and its ultimate target is the brain."

"Once it successfully reaches the brain."

"They will quickly assimilate and replace the host's brain cells, completely taking control of the body."

"Because of the death of brain cells, from that moment on, the original host is already dead."

"What remains is a dead body completely controlled by the parasite."

Natsume Ryo's tone was completely flat, as if he were narrating something that had nothing to do with him.

But the content described in that calm tone.

But it made Kurashiki Reika, Rena, and Miura Yumiko's hearts involuntarily clench!

Almost immediately, I could picture the Shiba Inu's head split open, revealing its horrific internal structure!

That's not how a living being should behave!

"Once they take over a parasitized body, they can change the body's shape at will."

Ryo Natsume's voice continued to come through.

The harsher reality is laid bare before Kurashiki Reika, Rena, and Miura Yumiko:

"Just like you just saw."

"Parasites can change their body shape at will, easily transforming their limbs into sharp blades, or any other form they need."

"Just like the original form of the parasite host."

"As for the parasites' food..."

"I think you've all seen it."

Natsume Ryo paused, his gaze calmly sweeping over the increasingly pale faces of Kurashiki Reika, Rena, and Miura Yumiko, before continuing:

"Although, to my knowledge, parasites can actually get a feeling of fullness by eating normal food."

"but."

"Most parasites, under normal circumstances, will only eat the same species as their host."

"In other words, the parasite that targets humans as its primary parasite, after parasitizing humans..."

"They will only eat one kind of food, which is..."

"people."

The last word, spoken softly by Natsume Ryo, struck the hearts of the three like a heavy hammer!

people?

Cannibalism?!

Upon hearing this, Kurashiki Reika, Kurashiki Reina, and Miura Yumiko almost instantly felt a chill run from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads!

The two gruesome corpses in the restaurant involuntarily flashed through their minds.

And the human arm that the Shiba Inu monster was chewing on...

……

Before Kurashiki Reika, Kurashiki Reina, and Miura Yumiko could even react.

Natsume Ryo then continued his explanation:

"of course."

"As I said—humans are the parasites' preferred targets."

"The monster you just encountered was, in short, an unlucky creature that failed to parasitize."

"The truly terrifying aspect of parasites is..."

Natsume Ryo paused, his gaze sweeping over the three people's obviously tense bodies.

"Those individuals who have successfully parasitized humans."

"They kill human hosts, seize control of their bodies, and then perfectly disguise themselves as humans to live in human society."

"Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, mingling among sheep."

"To wait for an opportunity to prey on other humans."

"You...you mean...like in the movies?!"

After listening to Natsume Ryo's words.

Rena Kurashiki's beautiful face drained of color, her eyes widened in shock, and even her voice trembled uncontrollably.

As a current high school girl who pursues fashion and is enthusiastic about popular culture, Rena Kurashiki naturally often watches various thrilling and exciting movies with her friends. However, although she likes to pursue excitement, it only means that she likes to watch horror movies, which does not mean that she really likes to face the horror reality.

If everything Natsume Ryo said is true.

Doesn't that mean that countless monsters, like ticking time bombs, are lurking in the world they live in?!

and.

These monsters also possess extremely high intelligence, knowing how to disguise themselves and lurk among the crowd.

Upon thinking of this, the group of people almost simultaneously felt a chill surge up their spines and instantly engulf their entire bodies!
