As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

"If you want to fight, go outside and fight." Kagura Tendo's words were indifferent.

The two immediately fell silent, with Kuroko whistling and pretending nothing had happened.

"Is there anything else?"

“I need those Shadow Crystals,” Miko said immediately.

Kagura Tendou previously gave her twelve Shadow Crystals and two Blood Solidification Body of the Warrior System. Although the quantity was not large, if she encountered the right person, the impact would be enormous.

She has joined the Human Union and plans to train a special force within the Mystic Group, which will require these mystical items. She initially intended to hand them over to the Human Union, but later disagreed with Kuromiko because Kuromiko wanted to use these mystical seeds to establish her own faction as a private army, and once it was fully developed, she would lead her subordinates to seize power.

With the combined power of spiritualists and the Shadow System, no one in human society can stop them.

But Miko disagrees with Kuromiko's plan. However, Kagura Tendo seems to have always hoped that she could represent humanity in the future.

Upon hearing this, Kagura Tendou gently shook her head: "I've already given you those things. You can use them however you like. You don't need to come and tell me specifically."

He mentioned how to use these things before he left, and also explained some taboos. It seems that Zi was able to hold back and only took them out now.

May all gods swiftly come to my aid; if anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu: Chapter 102: The Charming Young Girl

There are naturally multiple considerations involved.

First, she lacks the ability. If she were to be presented directly, the higher-ups might award her a medal of honor and then kick her out of the game.

She had absolutely no idea where to go.

Jianzi believed that there wasn't much filth in the early days of the human union. Or rather, people hadn't had time to adapt to the new era, many things were still being explored, the matter of psychics wasn't even understood, let alone the mysterious power from other worlds.

Secondly, there must be supernatural beings within the mysterious group, but these sages have an unclear and ambiguous attitude towards human alliance.

Basically, all those with supernatural powers have an inextricable connection with the four ancient civilizations. However, three of these civilizations have been severed, leaving only ruins. They cannot establish any connection with these civilizations or trace their ancestry back to them, leaving the higher-ups feeling helpless.

The Human Union Headquarters was established on the side of the only surviving civilization. She heard that a supernatural being there had agreed to become a group leader and used ancient artifacts to deter some restless villains.

However, progress in Japan is still lagging behind, with no sign of any progress yet. The only one showing any promise is the legendary Onmyoji of Kyoto.

She had never met anyone with supernatural abilities, so she dared not take any chances and think too highly of them.

In this respect, she and Kuroko share the same view: prepare for the worst and rely on yourself rather than others.

But now, Jianzi can barely protect himself and is also capable of secretly building his own power.

She and Kuroko disliked each other, so it was impossible for her to hand over the Shadow Crystals. Kuroko would rebel because in her eyes, these things were extremely precious, more important than her dowry, and were the foundation for the future.

However, Kuroko's idea was impossible to realize. She planned to use the power of a psychic to brainwash and cultivate loyal followers, laying the groundwork for raising a banner in the future, and having the right to behead anyone she disliked.

But after arguing back and forth, the two finally chose a compromise—to create a small team under her name, under the guise of a secret group.

In truth, she had little ambition, was indifferent to fame and fortune, and didn't care much about power or status. She understood very well that if she hadn't stumbled upon certain things by chance, she wouldn't have been able to reach this point, stepping into the upper echelons of humanity. Although her status had risen to an unprecedented level, it also came with a heavy burden of responsibility.

She has always considered herself just an ordinary girl, and she still does.

But fate is beyond her control; she was unwittingly drawn into the vortex and now finds it difficult to extricate herself. She has been suffering greatly during this time, facing too many things to deal with.

"Let's do it." Kagura Tendou supports Miko; the more cards she has, the better. However, she started too late and can't compare to those supernatural beings. She's still in the accumulation phase.

Seeing this, she asked again, "Did Nishimiya Yuzuru come looking for you?"

Kagura Tendou nodded: "Here it comes."

Kuroko interjected, "Can you hand her over to me?" She wouldn't hide her intentions; she was looking to recruit a henchman, and Nishimiya Yuzuru would be perfect, as her future Shadow Squad was just short of a leader.

The Shadow System has extremely high requirements for qualifications. Compared to it, even spiritual masters have to give way. She was very curious about Nishimiya Yuzuru and wanted to study what the power of darkness was all about.

Kagura Tendo glanced at Kuroko, who was quite rude. But Yuzuru wasn't his possession; she was just a student. However, she wasn't very proactive and often spaced out in class. Fortunately, she wasn't stupid and didn't stagnate.

"You can ask her directly."

"Can't you make the decision?" Kuroko became interested, and Tendo Kagura didn't immediately deny her, thinking there was a chance.

"Do you want me to interfere in Yotsuya Miko's life too?" Tendo Kagura said calmly. Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you. Nishimiya Yuzuru is not ready yet. Taking new recruits to the battlefield will cause big problems. It's okay if they desert, but if they shoot their own teammates, they're doomed.

“If it were you, I…” Upon hearing this, Kuroko blushed, her legs rubbing together as if she had thought of something. Her calves were slender, but her thighs were full, clad in black knee-high stockings, highlighting her curves. She stood gracefully, with no gap between her legs, looking charming and lovely.

But then she heard a cold, piercing gaze from the side. Yotsuya Miko's eyes were like knives, as if she wanted to tear this guy who had ruined her image to pieces.

"Can't you tone it down a bit?" she whispered angrily. This guy just couldn't stay still; he was always thinking of causing trouble.

But Kuroko glanced at her disdainfully, "Why should I restrain myself? Do I have to be a quiet, pretty girl like you all day long?" She couldn't stand Kuroko's lifestyle, which was partly due to her excellent figure and outstanding looks, yet she didn't know how to show off.

Do you even know what it means for a woman to dress up for the man she loves?

She always wears the same few outfits, and everything she wears looks the same, so she doesn't show any charm at all. She's different; even in a JK uniform, she exudes charm and vitality.

That is to say, she didn't have the power to manifest illusions before, otherwise why would she have come here to find Kagura Tendou and let the thief succeed?

She didn't care who Kagura had a relationship with; Hiratsuka Shizuka was just an ordinary person and didn't take her seriously at all. But she cared a lot about Tendo Kagura's choice to live here.

Damn it! It's not like she doesn't have empty rooms, and it's very close to the Endo residence, so why didn't she choose her house?

Moreover, her bed is quite large. If she feels cramped, she can use her spiritual powers to send her mother and brother out. Then the balcony, living room, and bathroom will be more than enough. If she wants more excitement, she can also go to deserted streets or parks nearby.

We must take the initiative; we can't let this idiot continue to thrive, or he'll squander all his previous advantages.

She couldn't understand Miko, just as Miko couldn't understand her.

Jianzi hopes that her relationship can be based on mutual understanding. She is not the kind of person who gets caught up in love and then forgets everything else.

She knew very well that she only had a superficial understanding of Tendo Kagura.

She knew nothing about Tendo Kagura's past, who he was, or what he did. A multitude of questions swirled in her mind; in her eyes, Tendo Kagura was a figure shrouded in layers of mystery.

She hoped to discover the true nature of Kagura Tendo through observation. She was patient and able to suppress her budding feelings, hoping that the two could gradually grow closer.

A confession is a triumphant return, not a battle cry.

But Kuroko scoffed at this.

Life is short, so seize the day and enjoy life to the fullest. Love passionately and intensely.

"I'm a girl who's loved by everyone." Kuroko stroked her face, extremely narcissistic.

Seeing this, he poured cold water on her: "No one can even see you, stop daydreaming."

Kuroko snorted coldly, "I don't care about others. To me, Kagura is a heartthrob."

He paused for a moment upon seeing the child.

"..." Tendou Kagura shook his head slightly; he wasn't good at being glib.

All gods, swiftly come to my aid! If anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu: Chapter 103: A Fantasy Drama

Kuroko has no sense of shame and speaks flirtatiously and frivolously, but to Kuroko, it is extremely grating.

The reason is simple: she felt that her image was completely ruined. If any acquaintance saw her, she would immediately become extremely dissolute, behaving recklessly and completely unlike a normal girl.

"Goodbye!" She felt her face burning and couldn't stay any longer. She had only come to see Tendo Kagura, and now she was finally at ease.

"Hmph!" Kuroko knew Miko's intentions. They had their own missions and could not stay long, so she did not linger. She simply blew a kiss to Tendo Kagura, and then the mental illusion dissipated.

"Let me see you off." Kagura Tendo stood up to see him off.

When the two reached the door, Zi suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked hesitantly, "Are you still watching me?"

Meeting her expectant gaze, Tendou Kagura said, "You're already capable of handling things on your own."

"I see." Jianzi was disappointed, but then cheered up. This was within her expectations. Young eagles always have to learn to fly on their own. Besides, she was not like before and would not easily fall into danger—the Yamata no Orochi was an accident.

She left the apartment.

Hiratsuka Shizuka smoked on the balcony, watching Miko's figure disappear into the distance below.

"Aren't you going with her?"

Tendo Kagura retorted, "You really want me to leave?"

"We're not going to get anywhere like this." Hiratsuka Shizuka sighed. She was wearing a refreshing sleeveless vest and black leggings that accentuated her curvaceous figure. Her smooth black hair was loose and fell naturally over her chest and back. She was as beautiful as a lotus emerging from the water. She was natural and dignified without makeup, and had the charm of a mature woman.

"We're not from the same world." She said softly.

This sentence is literal.

Love can ignore worldly prejudices, but it cannot ignore the essential differences between the two.

If it were just a difference in status, it would be fine, since everyone is a normal person. Even if Kagura Tendo became the prime minister, she couldn't say she could provide help, but she could still keep up and fulfill her responsibilities as a partner.

Kagura Tendou stared intently at her.

"Well, these thoughts of mine are just unnecessary worries." She laughed self-deprecatingly. As a former life guidance teacher, she could face students with composure and confidence. With more experience as an adult, she naturally had an advantage when dealing with teenagers and could give them pointers.

But there is currently no experience that can be applied to this situation.

"Actually, I also think that my life is wonderful right now. It should be the happiest period of my life in the past few years, but... Anyway, thank you, Kagura."

She couldn't possibly be head over heels in love; she's figured that out in the last few days.

The two lines intersect and intertwine, but ultimately they will continue along their own paths. She has no intention of finding anyone else; she was prepared to remain single until death. Ye Zi is in a similar situation. Her friend fell for Tendo Kagura's mother, while she fell for Tendo Kagura—a tragic fate, she'll have company in the retirement home from now on.

"I understand..." Tendou Kagura sighed softly, but her words were rather complicated.

"Want a drink?" Seeing his expression, Hiratsuka Shizuka felt relieved. She smiled, walked over to the refrigerator, took out two cans of beer that she had just bought, and shook them slightly.

It's daytime now.

"There's no rule against drinking during the day. Come keep me company."

"If you're going to drink, then drink. Don't get physical..."

"I can't hear you, I'm drunk. By the way, I don't think I've ever seen you smile. It's so boring to always have such a long face, come on, give me a smile."

"..."

"That's awful! Make your smile look nicer!"

"..."

……

Human society is in turmoil and people are restless, but Chiba is performing well and is able to maintain a normal order on the surface.

The term "good" refers to the fact that compared to other cities, those politically and economically important cities are alright, but other cities are really not good enough.

Due to a severe decline in public trust, the government's wavering and inability to provide a definitive answer have led ordinary people to believe that the authorities are constantly deceiving them. Various rumors and conspiracy theories have proliferated online and offline, claiming that the deaths were just the beginning, with more casualties to come, and that humanity is on the verge of collapse, with the Mayan-predicted apocalypse imminent. While some of these rumors may be true or false, they lack any real basis upon closer examination, causing widespread restlessness, fear, and anxiety. Prayers for safety have been poured in, with major shrines overrunning the entrances, yet no miracles have been observed, yielding minimal results.
