"That's it then. See you later."

After saying this, she continued to walk forward and left gracefully.

After watching the young and handsome school doctor walk away for more than ten meters, the girl with glasses who was still standing there swallowed stiffly.

"It seems like School Nurse Hasegawa... seems to care about you a lot. Could it be that Hanakaiin-kun also had sex with School Nurse Hasegawa at the club party?"

"Well, everything you said is right."

Hanakaiin Buddhagui answered, his voice coming from the direction of the stairs at the other end of the corridor.

Chapter 7 He No Longer Remembers

Because he was delayed by Kiryu Aika in the classroom, it was already fifteen minutes after class when Hanakaiin Fukui arrived.

The location of the activity classroom... No, to be precise, the activity location of the "Mysterious Research Club" that Hanakaiin Fugui participates in is not in a classroom on campus in the popular sense, but in the old school building behind the school.

Even calling it an old school building is a bit too shabby.

When people usually mention old school buildings, what comes to mind are nothing more than the tube-shaped buildings of the last century, with mottled exterior walls and loose doors that seem like they will fall down at any second. The windows in the entire building are broken and shattered, and some are simply not there at all. Rusty and rotten bunk beds and household garbage can be seen everywhere in the compartments of the building.

However, in fact, the old campus of Ku Wang College is a small villa that looks quite good. Although it is made of wood, it still stands tall even after so many years of wind and rain. In the sun, the west wall of the villa is covered with ivy, which echoes the natural landscape.

When Hanakaiin Fugui came downstairs, the window on the second floor of the old school building was open. A girl with long red hair, whose appearance and bust were no less than those of school doctor Hasegawa, was sitting in front of the window. She leaned her elbows on the window frame, supporting her cheeks, and stared blankly at the scenery outside the window in the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.

Is this because he is lost in thought?

Fogui from Huakaiyuan downstairs looked up for a while, but couldn't help but turn up the volume a little.

"Rias."

"Well……!"

As if her thoughts were suddenly pulled back to reality, the red-haired girl who was gazing into the distance at the second-floor window a second ago was obviously flustered for a moment, and subconsciously looked down in the direction of the sound.

As the face of the young man downstairs came into view clearly, the red-haired girl named Rias couldn't help but smile happily. She patted her plump chest lightly, like fingertips brushing across the calm water, causing a small ripple.

"Hey Buddha, you're here! I was just wondering when you'd come over. Come in! I'll be right down."

"it is good."

Huakaiyuan Fogui made an OK gesture and stepped into the old school building.

Again, although it is an old school building, it is actually more like a small house in essence, so there is even a reception room on the first floor, which is usually used as the main area for club activities.

So when Hua Kaiyuan Fogui arrived at the reception room, everyone else was already there.

In the large reception room, there was a three-seater sofa facing each other on each side, two meters away from the wall, with a coffee table in the middle. In the front was a large office desk. Rias, who had just appeared in the second-floor window, had now appeared in the reception room, leaning elegantly against the desk with her arms folded across her chest.

There were two other girls sitting on the sofa on the left.

One of them had long, smooth black hair tied into a high ponytail behind her back. She had a pretty face and slightly downturned eyes, revealing a hint of a good wife and mother. Especially the two peaks on her chest were even larger than Rias's in terms of visual effect.

As for the other one, she was no longer plump. Instead, she looked quite petite compared with the two queens from the unified society... No, it should be said that she was very petite. She had a black cat hairpin on her white shoulder-length hair. She sat quietly on the sofa, nibbling a piece of cake.

"Sorry, Akeno-san and Koneko, I was delayed a little on the way here."

Huakaiyuan Fogui walked into the living room while carrying a suitcase and sat down on the sofa on the right, then casually placed the suitcase on the coffee table in the middle.

Hearing the name "Azeno-senpai", the black-haired lady who had always focused her eyes on the young man since Hanakaiin Fukui entered the living room said nothing, but her eyes flickered twice and seemed to dim slightly.

Instead, the petite white-haired girl next to her, who looked like nothing, stopped chewing the cake, raised her face and hummed softly, as a greeting.

At this point, Rias also stood up from the desk with her hands slightly supported, slowly walked to the sofa on the right and sat down next to Hanakaiin Buddha.

"Well, anyway, I still have to thank Fogui for his help last night. Otherwise, with the three of me, Zhu Nai, and Xiaomao being short of manpower, we might not be able to catch the target... Well, enough polite words, now that everyone is here, let's take a look at the things Fogui brought. This was seized from the rogue demon we eliminated yesterday... Hmm~ Why can't I open it?" The red-haired girl pressed the handle of the suitcase with one hand, and held the unlocked lock with the other hand, trying to exert force.

However, the suitcase, which should normally be opened by unfastening the buckle and pulling it, seemed to have been filled with super glue by some unscrupulous person, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't open it.

"Oh, sorry, I almost forgot."

Huakaiyuan Fogui slapped his head, reached out and lightly tapped the box with his fingertips. Suddenly, a golden spiritual pressure flashed slightly at the open lock, and then the box that had been unable to be opened opened instantly.

Just like when I checked last night and this morning, a purple-black shriveled human finger lay quietly in it.

"this is……"

Rias was slightly stunned as she never expected that there would be a human finger inside.

Hanakaiin Fogui shrugged and explained, "Actually, there wasn't a seal on the suitcase originally, but... like I said, Hakimi's home. He ripped the suitcase open last night while I was showering. Incidentally, there was originally a sealing charm wrapped around my finger, but it seems that the charm is losing its effectiveness over time, so I simply tore it off and used the suitcase as a medium to reseal it."

"As for the finger's origins, I've consulted the almighty netizens. All I know is that it's supposedly in the care of the Jujutsu Association, and they say it's a special-grade sealed item. I can't quite figure out what's so special about it, though..."

"Please let me take a closer look."

Before he finished speaking, the lady with long black hair, Akeno, who was sitting on the sofa opposite him, stood up, politely asked the boy's permission, picked up the finger from the box, and began to study it carefully in the bright classical chandelier above.

After about half a minute, she put it down again and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmm~ I'm not entirely sure, but considering the shape of the finger and the Curse Association mentioned by Buddha Guijun, I'm afraid this is the finger left behind by the Curse King Ryoumen Sukuna a thousand years ago."

"Senior Akeno knows?" Hanakaiin Fukui was a little surprised.

"Um……"

Himejima Akeno explained with a slight nod.

"Both Rias and Koneko know this. Before I followed Rias and became a demon, my mother was a shrine maiden of the Himejima family, so I've read some family records since I was a child. This... have I told Fugui-kun?"

"I don't remember, probably not."

Huakaiyuan Fogui thought about it seriously, and then shook his head.

He certainly didn't remember it.

"Is that so? Now Fogui-kun also knows."

Himejima Akeno smiled slightly, but there was a hint of loneliness in her smile.

As expected... he no longer remembers it.

Chapter 8 The Senior Schoolmate Came to the Door

"According to family records, legend has it that a thousand years ago, during the heyday of curse art, a curse caster with four arms and two faces appeared. His name was Ryoumen Sukuna. He was born with exceptional strength and a fondness for bloodshed. In his time, no one in the entire curse art world could match his power. However, Ryoumen Sukuna belonged to neither the human nor the curse spirit faction, simply acting at will and according to his mood."

"Later, the Fujiwara clan sent its elite expeditionary forces, the Sun, Moon, and Stars Summoning Force, and the Five Void Generals, to attack Ryoumen Sukuna, but they were ultimately annihilated. Ultimately, the shogunate had no choice but to appoint Ryoumen Sukuna as the new shrine to the Heiankyo Palace."

"Before his death, Ryoumen Sukuna divided his soul into twenty pieces and sealed them in his fingers. The one you brought here, Master Fogui, should be one of the twenty."

Himejima Akeno's explanation is quite concise and clear, and the arrangement is very clear and can be understood at once.

However, after hearing this, Huakaiyuan Fogui looked up at the sky and fell into deep thought. After a long while, he spoke intermittently.

"It sounds impressive, but it seems a bit watered down..."

"Water?" Himejima Akeno was puzzled.

"Well, this involves some of the history of Onmyoji."

Huakaiyuan Fogui's face showed a look of reminiscence.

"I've read my own family records before. A thousand years ago was indeed the period when spells and Onmyoji developed most rapidly. At that time, the pinnacle of the Onmyoji lineage was not the Hanakaiin family, but the Gomonin family. The head of the Gomonin family at that time was the most widely acclaimed Onmyoji today—Abe Haruaki, who was also the one who should have been enshrined at the Heiankyo Palace a thousand years ago."

"It is said that Abe Haruaki's mother was a fox demon. As the head of the Gomonin family, Abe Haruaki's original wish was to allow humans and monsters to coexist peacefully—"

The flowers bloom in the courtyard and the Buddha spreads his hands.

"One day, someone killed his mother and made her into fur for him..."

"Then Abe Haruaki exploded and left Heian-kyo Palace. He completely turned to the side of the monsters and became the lord of demons and monsters a thousand years ago."

"So it seems that it was after Abe Haruaki fled that the Heiankyo Palace of Sukuna Kumii was opened to both sides."

After saying this long string of words, the young man paused for a moment and curled his lips.

"As for the Fujiwara Kita clan, to be honest, although the Fujiwara clan was indeed aristocratic in ancient Japan, they were only aristocrats and could not be compared with an orthodox Onmyoji family. At best, they spent a large sum of money every year to hire a few ordinary Onmyoji from the Hanakaiin and Gomonin families as guards."

"It's not surprising that a group of ordinary Onmyoji couldn't defeat the pinnacle of the curse world at the time. Furthermore, Abe Haruaki was furious and fled to the youkai to fight against humans. No wonder the shogunate was so anxious that they invited such a demonic leader into the palace."

Ok……

When I think about it this way, the recorded Ryomen Sukuna seems a bit exaggerated.

Hanakaiin Fukui thought for a moment, then suddenly pointed at Sukuna's finger in Akeno's hand.

"So since those sorcerers thought about sealing the fingers, didn't they consider destroying them directly?"

"As for this... after all, this is the first time I've seen the real thing, so I'm not entirely sure."

Himejima Akeno shook her head slightly.

"However, according to the records, many people have tried to destroy these fingers, but all failed. In the end, they had no choice but to seal them."

"……what?"

Huakaiyuan Fogui was slightly stunned.

No, buddy, what's the point of failure? It's just fingers. It's okay if you can't beat others when you are alive, but there is nothing you can do after you die if only some fingers are left.

It's really not as good as one, right?

"Is it that difficult? Then I'll try it now."

Hanakaiin Fukui stood up and took Sukuna's finger from Himejima Akeno's hand. A terrifying golden spiritual pressure instantly ignited on his body. The air currents caused the curtains in the reception room to flutter, as if all the doors and windows were opened during a typhoon.

Of course, the girls' clothes also fluttered in the wind.

"Hey...wait a minute, Fogui, you're not planning on getting serious here, are you?"

Rias, sitting on the sofa beside him, held the hem of her skirt with one hand, looking a little helpless.

Although the two parties have not known each other for too long, they have cooperated several times, and she has also witnessed what Hanakaiin Fugui looks like when fighting.

With this guy's strength, if he were to randomly unleash his spiritual pressure in this old school building, not only the old school building itself, but the entire Juou Academy would be in danger of being blown away!

"Ala, it looks like Fogui-kun is really serious~"

Sitting opposite, Akeno Himejima was still as elegant as ever, with her hands folded and gently pressed on her legs, and her beautiful face still had a gentle smile as always.

Even the petite white-haired girl Tacheng Xiaomao, who had been concentrating on eating the cake next to her from the beginning, was forced to hold down her skirt with one hand, slightly squinting her eyes from behind the cake and complaining in a low voice.

"Senior Fogui always feels an inexplicable desire to win whenever he encounters something related to a sorcerer."

"Perhaps this is the reserve of being an Onmyoji?"

Himejima Akeno added a sentence, and the two girls echoed it.

Huakaiyuan Fogui stood still without saying a word, his ten fingers crossed in the air to form a sphere, and golden light from his palms enveloped his fingers.

The posture was as if he was rubbing the core of an artificial sun with his hands.

Soon, as the spiritual pressure exerted by the young man became more and more terrifying, a crisp sound like the sound of shattered ice being broken was heard, and a golden crack appeared on the finger of Sukuna, which was said to be "absolutely indestructible".

Huakaiyuan Buddhist Conversion continues to increase its efforts.

Then came the second, third, fourth...

After a moment, as the golden spiritual pressure on Hanakaiin Buddha's body gradually subsided, when he released his hand, Sukuna's fingers, which had broken into several pieces like charcoal, fell from mid-air and landed on the coffee table, completely shattered into pieces and turned into a pool of powder.

“It’s not that difficult.”

Looking at Sukuna's completely destroyed fingers on the coffee table, the boy said lightly.

"pretty……"

The petite white-haired girl sitting opposite swallowed the last bite of cake, looked at the handsome boy in front of her, and asked a very crucial question.

"So, now that the finger is destroyed, what if the Spell Association comes to find Senior Fogui and asks for the finger to be returned?"

"Yeah, after all, it's the association's property." Himejima Akeno also said with a nod of her lips, "Maybe they'll ask for compensation?"

"..."

As soon as these two sentences came out, Hua Kaiyuan Fogui, who was quite satisfied with the results of his operation in the previous second, was petrified for a moment.

Although it is not necessary to ask for compensation, after all, they had to seal it up because they could not destroy it. Now that I have helped them destroy it, I should be grateful to them.

But considering the bad relationship between sorcerers and onmyojis, and the character of those old men in the upper echelons of the sorcery world, emmm... maybe they would really do such a thing.

So the question is, what should he do if the Jujutsu Association comes to argue with him? He has no money to compensate those nouveau riche, and if the Kyoto Hanakaiin family comes forward to deal with it, things will become very troublesome. Tsk... what should he do?

This question had just popped up in the boy's mind when the telephone in the office in the living room suddenly rang.

Ding-ding-ding!
