“However,” she adjusted her goggles, a wise glint in her eyes, “any powerful energy body must contain a counter-energy that can be neutralized.”

"This is a surprise I've prepared specifically for those energy-type monsters, which I've spent several months developing."

"Now, please... stay inside for a little while."

She turned her head and looked at the long-haired girl with black hair who was panicking again because Su Chen was trapped—Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"All right."

"The person in the way has now been isolated."

"Ryo-kun, please continue cooking."

"Yes, Miss Alice!"

A bloodthirsty fighting spirit reignited in Kurokiba Ryo's eyes.

Without that invincible man, who seemed like a god, watching him intently from the sidelines, his madness as a "kitchen tyrant" reached its peak once again!

He locked his bloodshot eyes once again onto the top-quality ingredient that had completely lost its backer and was powerless to even kill a chicken.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was devastated at that moment.

What an international joke!

She's just a pretty young female writer who can't even lift a chicken!

Her greatest talent lies in using words to torment the male protagonists in her writing, rather than playing Mortal Kombat with a berserker wielding two large cleavers in real life.

Finished!

This time it's really over!

Without Su Chen's protection, she was just a lamb to the slaughter!

however--

Just when her mind went blank with despair.

A familiar voice, clearly transmitted through those small earphones, entered her mind.

"Hey, senior."

It's Su Chen.

Although he was trapped, communication was not interrupted.

"...At this point, what else do you want?" Shiyu thought despairingly. "Are you going to give me a final farewell?"

'No. '

Su Chen's voice remained calm, even carrying a hint of a smile.

'I'm here to teach you how to win.'

'? ? ? '

'Believe me.'

Su Chen's voice was filled with undeniable confidence.

Your most powerful weapon isn't your fists, nor is it any superpower.

'It's your wisdom.'

"..."

Shi Yu looked at the man trapped in the energy cage, whose face still showed an expression of complete control.

Listening to his words, which were full of devilish temptation.

For some reason, her wildly beating heart miraculously calmed down.

An unprecedented sense of excitement replaced the previous fear.

'Should I use my wisdom to defeat an enemy far more powerful than myself, following his script?'

'this…'

'This plot development is full of the thrill of the underdog overthrowing the superior…'

Absolutely fantastic!

Her soul, that belonged to a creator, that yearned for excitement and drama, was burning brightly.

"it is good."

She took a deep breath and nodded.

In those wine-red eyes, the flame of pride reignited once more!

"Let me play with him for a while."

……

then.

A battle that can only be described as bizarre.

It officially began.

"Hey! You muscle idiot over there!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha stepped out from the corner and beckoned to Kurokiba Ryo in a provocative tone.

"What? Your master loosened your chain, and now you can't wait to come up and bite people?"

"you wanna die!"

Kurokiba Ryo's anger was instantly ignited.

He roared and transformed into a black afterimage once more, lunging towards the reckless woman!

The blade strikes again!

But this time.

The tension that had been on Shi Yu's face was completely gone.

An incredibly reliable voice had already sounded in her mind a moment earlier.

Step forward half a step with your left foot.

Without hesitation, Shiyu took a small step forward!

It's just this small step.

Her body narrowly avoided Kurokiba Ryo's ferocious and deadly straight strike at an extremely dangerous and incredible angle!

The blade whistled sharply as it grazed her hair, even severing a few strands of black hair.

'On the right, third row, that bottle of yellow hydrogen sulfide solution.'

Su Chen's instructions followed immediately.

Her hands moved with lightning speed, and she grabbed a flask containing an unknown yellow liquid from the lab table next to her, which was covered with various chemical reagents!

'Throw it at that pile of sodium metal wrapped in tin foil behind you.'

Then, without turning around, he threw it hard at the long shelf behind him filled with flammable materials.

It all happened in the blink of an eye.

boom!

A burst of orange-red flames, fueled by a chemical reaction, exploded, forming a temporary barrier of fire.

"Tsk!"

Kurokiba Ryo's offensive was forced to stop.

He instinctively took two steps back, shielding his mouth, nose, and the flames with his arm, his eyes filled with rage and a hint of confusion.

This guy…

How did she dodge my knife just now?

……

At the other end of the laboratory.

Kasumigaoka Utaha leaned against the wall, breathing heavily, but her beautiful wine-red eyes were filled with a fighting spirit.

'Success...'

'Well done, Kasumigaoka-senpai.'

Su Chen's voice echoed in her mind again.

'It seems you're even more talented than I thought. Next…'

'Let me play with you for a while.' Shi Yu silently took over the conversation in her mind, a smile involuntarily curving her lips.

……

"Damn... little bug!"

Kurokiba Ryo brandished his boning knife, temporarily dispersing the smoke in front of him.

"Is all you can do is play petty, low-class tricks?"

He roared and charged forward again.

"A little trick?"

Shi Yu's voice was soft, yet it was like a scalpel coated with deadly poison, precisely piercing the other person's mind, which was already dominated by rage.

"Does your brain, which is empty except for 'muscles,' deserve to be called nothing more than a trick?"

"what?"

"Looks like I was right. Well, after all, for a 'loyal dog' that only knows how to obey its master's commands..."

"Thinking is indeed a luxury."

"What did you say!"

Kurokiba Ryo completely lost his mind and, in the most direct way, unleashed a furious "Mount Hua Cleave" attack on Kasumigaoka Utaha.

however

Just as he swung his knife.

Shi Yu was already on the optimal route that Su Chen had planned for her, and had moved ahead of time to an absolutely safe blind spot.

boom!

Kurokiba Ryo's sword slashed hard into empty air, splitting a laboratory table made of a special alloy in two.

And at the very moment he stiffened due to excessive force.

Without hesitation, Kasumigaoka Utaha grabbed another bottle of reagent and splashed it on Kurokiba Ryo's face!

"Ugh!"

The high concentration of anesthetic made Kurokiba Ryo feel dizzy and his vision blurred instantly!

Kato Megumi, who was watching this scene from the doorway, was completely stunned.

Chapter Eighty: The Emperor's Arbitration

"Hahaha…"

Kasumigaoka Utaha leaned against the cold wall, panting heavily, each breath feeling like it was tearing her lungs apart.

My throat felt burning, as if I had just swallowed a piece of red-hot charcoal.

Her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which slid down her cheeks and mixed with the dirt on her face.

Her once spotless black school uniform was now torn in several places due to the intense struggle she had just endured, revealing a glimpse of her fair skin and making her look somewhat disheveled.

But in her beautiful wine-red eyes, a flame of pride and resilience still burned.

'hateful…'

Her heart was filled with resentment.
