Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

According to my divination, his strength is terrifying, and it turns out that's true. Even Kaito Kuroba was defeated by him and almost lost his life. So it seems that I'd better not provoke him.

At this moment, the identity of the person in front of him was immediately obvious. It was none other than Koizumi Akako, Kaito Kuroba's classmate and the rightful successor of the Red Magic!

Beneath the cloak, Akako wore a high school girl's outfit. She had long, straight, crimson hair and a charming, delicate face.

Her eyes and brows exuded an air of arrogance, and her slender figure was exquisite and captivating. In terms of figure and appearance, she was in no way inferior to Xiao Lan, and her hot figure even surpassed Xiao Lan's.

"You petty, narrow-minded man!"

Even though he was in the air, looking down at the earth like a god, Miyazaki Yu was still below. He could still feel the powerful, suffocating pressure from the other party!

"Be careful!"

After Miyazaki Yu smiled, he suddenly exerted force with his feet, like a spring, and instantly leaped out of the window, landing on the wall on the other side. His control over his strength had reached a level of subtlety.

With just a tiny bit of leverage, they can move as if walking on flat ground on walls, much like geckos or insects. These animals only need a tiny bit of leverage to move in incredibly difficult places.

While Miyazaki Yu hasn't reached that level yet, walls are no longer an obstacle for him. As long as it's not a perfectly smooth mirror surface, he can easily move freely on it using the power of movement.

"How is this possible? He can walk freely on the wall without using any tools! This guy!"

"Shadow!"

Miss Hongzi gritted her teeth and suddenly shook her robe. Dozens of black rag dolls flew out from the robe. These rag dolls had fierce faces and were all carrying a dark aura. They flew towards Miyazaki Yu.

"Hmph, these dark dolls all carry a dark aura. As long as they get close to a living person, they will trigger an explosion that impacts the soul. Although they can't kill you, they can make you suffer for a while."

Thinking about how painful this guy would be next, a slight smile appeared on her lips, and she almost let out her signature giggle.

But what happened next took the witch by surprise.

Miyazaki Yu's figure moved, and his figure suddenly accelerated again in the air. In an instant, a phantom streaked past, and the afterimage he left behind seemed to turn into fireflies and scatter.

This move is none other than the legendary swordsman Makino's signature technique, the Flowing Firefly Slash!

After sparring with this swordsman, Miyazaki Yu repeatedly reviewed the battle and used his memory palace to analyze the essence of the move.

The method of unleashing this attack was discovered to be absolutely ingenious.

The methods used to activate the body are quite powerful, and there are many aspects worth learning from them.

So Miyazaki Yu secretly practiced this move thousands of times in his mind, and directly incorporated some of his own power generation methods to make the move less wasteful. Although the power was reduced, he could use it without paying any price.

After activating this move, Miyazaki Yu can continuously generate leverage in the air without any leverage points.

The effect is similar to stepping on the right foot with the left foot in the martial arts world, but in reality, Miyazaki Yu uses the inward burst of power to gain a strong ability to stay in the air, which is why he can use such a move.

As soon as the black doll flew out, the sword light, like a leech, instantly bloomed all around. The dazzling sword blade swept across the doll, and the black doll was instantly split in two. The talismans and runes engraved on it dimmed instantly.

From a microscopic perspective, you can see that the runes emit a faint crackling sound, like a short circuit.

Then, with a slight flash, it completely dimmed, signifying the shattering of the magic. Without the support of magic, these dolls were actually just ordinary rag dolls, and were instantly shredded.

"There is a special power on his sword. The moment it touches the doll, all the magic runes on the doll become ineffective. Could this be the legendary sword energy?"

Koizumi Akako was dumbfounded. Sword energy is the condensation of a swordsman's willpower, and the power of the magic runes comes from the blessing of the spirit. Once the spiritual power on them is dispersed, all magic or witchcraft will lose its effectiveness!

"No, this guy is a monster. He's much stronger than Kid. If we keep fighting him, I'll definitely be defeated."

Although this guy probably wouldn't kill her, she didn't want to risk her life to test his moral standards.

She unleashed several more spells, and a gust of wind surged around her body, ready to fly away on her broom—this was her ability to control the wind.

But Miyazaki Yu refused to give up.

"Trying to escape? Then let me show you my throwing knives!"

During this period, he had no opportunity to use throwing knives, but in fact, he had been practicing all along without slacking off.

He also had some small throwing knives specially made by Bei Jie, which he hid in his clothes, even in his pajamas.

A true warrior is one who is never unarmed!

He was in mid-air when he suddenly threw a flying knife at Hongzi. Hongzi immediately felt threatened and hurriedly dodged, but another flying knife flashed by. This was Miyazaki Yu's target, the flying broom!

The broom's tail was struck instantly, and a burst of purple light erupted, rendering the flying broom ineffective. Miss Hongzi's expression changed drastically, and her body began to plummet rapidly.

"It's over!"

Falling from that height would likely mean certain death!

Just as she closed her eyes in fear, she found herself in a warm embrace. When she opened her eyes again, they were safely on the railing at the highest point of the rooftop.

Miyazaki Yu maintained a calm expression, one foot on the slippery railing, the other foot's two toes gripping a section of the railing like nails, standing there steadily!

She nestled into his arms like a docile kitten, and Hongzi blushed instantly.

Chapter 167 Following and Deterring

"you,,,"

The situation at this moment is truly bizarre.

A young man in pajamas is holding a beautiful girl in strange clothes in his arms, and he is standing on the most dangerous spot of a building in such a strange posture, using only the soles of his feet.

This feeling was really strange, and Koizumi Akako couldn't help but blush instantly.

"Bastard, let me go!"

The girl struggled for a moment, and a faint fragrance wafted over. Miyazaki Yu was taken aback for a moment, but then laughed heartily.

"I thought it was some kind of ferocious enemy, but it turns out to be a witch who can cast spells. How interesting!"

He pretended to look at it, but actually examined it carefully to make sure there were no traps or gadgets on the other person. Only then did he truly believe that magic did exist in this world.

"It seems the waters of this world are deeper than I imagined. However, even magic should be explainable by science. It's just that magic follows the path of applying spiritual power."

Koizumi Akako apparently said that if she shed tears, her magic would disappear. Clearly, this so-called magic must be related to fluctuations in one's mental state.

"Let go!"

Seeing the guy staring intently at her, she felt a surge of embarrassment and anger. She tried to flip herself out of Miyazaki Yu's arms, but before she could get out, Miyazaki Yu grabbed her slender waist and pulled her back.

"Hey, hey, that's downstairs over there. Do you want to fall and kill yourself?"

With that, Miyazaki Yu pushed off with his feet, flipped himself upside down with the girl in the air, and landed steadily on the rooftop before putting her down.

"Humph--"

As soon as the girl landed, she immediately distanced herself from Miyazaki Yu and glared angrily at him, feeling extremely irritated.

"You bastard, how dare you treat me like this!"

Looking at the exasperated girl, Miyazaki Yu smiled slightly, his face showing a nonchalant expression.

"Miss, you probably haven't figured it out yet. You're still in my hands. Although I don't easily hurt girls, I'm always petty. I never show mercy to those who dare to pry into my secrets. I hope you can give me a reasonable answer. If your answer doesn't satisfy me, you'll be in trouble."

"you!"

Koizumi Akako's face flushed red; she was furious with this guy. She had always been arrogant about her beauty, and any man was someone she could boss around.

Aside from that freak Kaito Kid, no one has ever tried to harm her, let alone refused to do so. Now this guy is shamelessly threatening to hurt her; it's an utter disgrace!

However, this monster's strength was terrifyingly powerful, and all his methods were rendered useless in front of it. Now that his broom was destroyed, and with this guy's lightning-fast speed, his magic was completely ineffective!

A wave of annoyance washed over him. He should have been more careful. If he had the magic circle to help him now, he could have controlled this guy and made him his slave!

"It seems Miss Witch isn't going to tell the truth. My request isn't high. Just tell me your name and home address so I can find you. After all, your abilities are quite special, and I'm very wary of you. I don't want anything to happen to the people around me while I'm helpless. That kind of situation must be completely prevented from the very beginning!"

Hearing this made Koizumi Akako feel a little better.

"I didn't realize this cold-hearted guy valued relationships so much. Judging from what he did before, he's very sentimental. My appearance clearly shattered his understanding, and out of fear of magic, that's why..."

For some reason, she suddenly thought of the situation in medieval Europe, which was the age of magic, but it was also the time when the conflict between ordinary people and wizards was at its most severe.

Out of fear of the unknown, many so-called witches were executed.

Among them were some real priestesses, but most were just ordinary people without any special abilities.

Is this person, like those others, afraid of the unknown, and that's why they hope to find something to hold against me?

The girl struggled internally. Her pride made her want to teach this bastard a lesson, but the reality was quite the opposite. This guy was incredibly powerful and showed no respect for beautiful women. If the stalemate continued, things would get worse!

She gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, fine, I'm scared of you, okay? I've never seen a man like you before, actually resorting to violence against a cute girl, you're a demon!"

Miyazaki Yu smiled and said, "How can one show the heart of a bodhisattva without resorting to ruthless means? In this world, beautiful things should never be protected by beautiful people, otherwise it will surely be a disaster. I am willing to become a shadow in the darkness to protect everything I cherish. If it means using some ruthless methods in the process, I will not hesitate."

"Hmph, you are quite an interesting person. My name is Koizumi Akako, and I am a direct descendant of the Red Magic lineage. I noticed your presence today while using divination."

Miyazaki Yuichi frowned: "Fortune telling? Then I'd like to ask, are there other people in this world who, like you, have mastered this mysterious power? If others can also find me through fortune telling, my troubles will be endless."

The girl snorted softly: "So you have moments of fear too. But don't worry, my divination method is unique. I came to you only because you are connected to me. Unless other people are also connected to you, they shouldn't be able to notice you!"

After all, although your swordsmanship is quite good, you're not some big shot, so no one would be interested in you.

"A mysterious connection? Could it be...?"

Miyazaki Yu thought about why Koizumi Akako had become interested in Kuroba Kaito. It was because Kuroba Kaito was the only man in the world she could not conquer. Could it be that she had also divined him in the same way?

A chill ran down my spine; there are just too many sycophants in this world!

As Miyazaki Yu was pondering, a streak of light flashed across the girl's body, and she disappeared from the spot, which startled Miyazaki Yu.

"I didn't sense anything at all. This woman is really something. But this isn't over yet. I need to give you a warning first."

A villa in Eguta, which appears to be a European-style building, with a secret underground room inside.

The room was large but very messy, and everything inside was fantastical. There were strange potions on the table and oddly shaped soup pots from which wisps of smoke rose.

The most eye-catching thing is a large mirror that is taller than a person, which is very similar to a witch's magic mirror. There are also many strange jars in the room, and the things soaking in these jars are also creepy.

"Whoohoo-"

Koizumi Akako walked in from outside, panting heavily. The magic she had just cast had taken a huge toll on her, and she was feeling quite exhausted. Her whole body ached, and she would need to rest for at least a few days after casting that spell.

"Young Miss, are you alright?" The ugly-looking butler rushed over and was startled when he saw Hongzi's appearance.

"It seems your operation didn't go smoothly this time. Was Miyazaki Yu's strength beyond your expectations?"

Hongzi was about to speak when another voice rang out first.

"Miss Koizumi Akako really didn't lie or deceive me. It seems your name is true. I hope we can continue to live in peace and not interfere with each other. However, I hope these strange things don't appear around me. That wouldn't be good for any of us."

Goodbye, lovely witch.

Please support me!
