A crossover anime, where people are in Classroom of the Imaginary Era, and behind the scenes, the ki

As Machima secretly made up her mind, Suwei also made a decision after a brief moment of thought.

Take Horikita Manabu away.

This wasn't because Su Wei and Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly had a change of heart.

They simply didn't have much time to stay in this world, but since the opportunity was rare, they took the chance to rescue their brother-in-law, thus avoiding the hassle of spending extra S points to specifically target the Chainsaw Man instance to rescue him.

As for whether this "snatching food from a tiger's mouth" behavior will provoke Machima and cause her to retaliate prematurely?

They naturally took this into account as well.

After all, Horikita Manabu is now essentially a possession "dominated" by Machima.

Therefore, by observing how Horikita reacts and his attitude when he learns, we can indirectly gauge Makima's attitude towards them.

Let's consider this a kind of test.

In this situation where everyone had their own agenda,

Using the full-map search capability of the black ball controller, Su Wei quickly located Horikita Manabu and appeared in front of him with Sakayanagi Arisu.

Meanwhile, Horikita Manabu was carrying several exquisitely packaged snack boxes, walking alongside Hayakawa Aki, who had her hair in braids.

Looking at this scene of "peace and tranquility"...

To be honest, not only was Horikita Manabu surprised to suddenly see an acquaintance, but Su Wei and Sakayanagi Arisu were also surprised.

I originally thought this guy would be living on thin ice here, but it turns out his situation... seems pretty comfortable.

So, after a brief initial exchange of pleasantries...

The group decided to find a nearby coffee shop that was still open and had a brief conversation in a secluded corner.

Of course, Suwei and Banliu knew that Machima would definitely eavesdrop, so they didn't intend to directly reveal Machima's true colors.

He was simply told that while the exam hall was still open, there might be an opportunity to take him away directly and return to the Advanced Education School.

However, faced with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Horikita Manabu hesitated, which was unusual for him.

He glanced at the two bags of gifts he had originally intended to bring to Dianci on the table, his glasses reflecting a faint light under the dim coffee shop lights.

Indeed, in this world teeming with demons, one cannot maintain the glamorous status of student council president as in advanced training, nor does one have a clear channel to steadily improve one's strength like the Black Ball Exam.

But during his forced stay, Horikita Manabu experienced a long-lost sense of being "alive".

He learned a lot from Hayakawa Aki, and even Denji and Parvati, that noisy pair of clowns, greatly relieved his tense mind.

To be honest, in Horikita Manabu's eyes, the Black Ball Exam, which in a short period of time forcibly raised the difficulty of the exam from Parasitic Beasts to the Special Grade Cursed Spirit Leak, and then evolved at lightning speed to the fundamental "Dark Demon"...

The sense of security it gave him was not as strong as when he went on field missions with Hayakawa Aki and the others.

However, Hayakawa Aki also knew that Horikita Aki was an "otherworldly being".

As someone whose family was brutally murdered by the devil of guns, and who walks alone on the path of revenge, he actually yearns for the bonds of family...

Even though Horikita Manabu was, in his eyes, a much more mature person than Denji and Pava, and could even be considered a partner he could entrust with his life.

However, he did not believe that his own selfishness and existence should prevent the other party from returning home.

Moreover, Denji's heart is now being targeted by top assassins from various countries, and he is surrounded by dangers.

Hayakawa Aki was genuinely afraid that something might happen to herself, or rather, to her "family"...

So, after a brief moment of thought, Hayakawa Aki stubbed out his cigarette, walked into the coffee shop, and patted Horikita Manabu heavily on the shoulder, advising him:

"When faced with a choice, it's best to think it over carefully before making a decision, to avoid regrets for the rest of your life, Horikita..."

Upon hearing this, Horikita Manabu fell silent.

As a smart man, he naturally saw through the true thoughts hidden by this kind senior.

Although he desperately wanted to say that he could stay and protect Denji together, and face those assassins together...

But Horikita ultimately didn't have the nerve to ask them for more help.

Those within the family know their own capabilities.

With the enhanced suit and [Sianweistan], he could hardly even protect himself when facing super-powerful beings like Guangxi and Santa Claus.

To say that it can be of any great help is absolutely self-deception.

Finally, Horikita Gaku stood up and bowed to Hayakawa Akimi.

Afterwards, he solemnly handed over the gifts that he had originally intended to take back to Denji and Parvado for a late-night snack to Hayakawa Aki.

Turning around, he followed Su Wei and stepped into the spatial passage that Su Wei had opened with the [Yama Blade].

......

With a sudden feeling of weightlessness, the scenery before my eyes changed abruptly.

Then, when his figure appeared inside the [Map of Mountains and Rivers] unfolded by Su Wei, Su Wei finally stopped hiding it.

He briefly explained to Horikita Manabu the existence of the 'back room' and its potential dangers.

After hearing these mind-blowing secrets, Horikita Manabu was taken aback.

"So... you mean to say that not only our world, but also the world where Hayakawa-senpai lives has been locked down by the back room?!"
