The dark world he went to, and the second node now, are both like that world; only the place where he lives is safe.

The former has seen its civilization decline, while the latter is merely clinging to life.

Does this world also experience disasters?

Kagura Tendo arrived at the station, with Miko and Hana talking behind her.

"Are you really alright, Miko?" Hua's tone was tinged with worry. She had always felt that there was something strange between Miko and Kagura, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. As her best friend, she definitely wanted to get to the bottom of it, but Miko wasn't someone she could easily win over with pleading and cajoling.

Yotsuya Miko shook her head slightly.

She rarely shows any expression, appearing calm and reserved, polite and virtuous. In terms of personality, she and Hua are actually two extremes, but the two of them have become very good friends.

Jianzi comforted Hua, saying, "It's okay, Hua. Go home, eat something, and get some sleep. You'll forget everything. Don't worry about it."

Hearing Miko's tone, which sounded like she was making her final arrangements, Yurikawa Hana's eyes welled up with tears.

"Jianzi, if you get kidnapped, send me a message."

Why do you always think the worst?

"It's because what Jianzi said was too strange, as if she might not be able to come back at any time."

Seeing that Zi was both amused and exasperated, he had to admit that Hua was right.

That world is too complicated, and the Heavenly Dao Kagura is even more mysterious and unpredictable. She was determined not to involve Hua. She seemed cheerful and optimistic with a broad mind, but in fact she was extremely timid and afraid of even cockroaches and rats.

Let him do whatever he wants.

Seeing that Zi was comforting him, he said, "If I die, I will definitely come back to find Hua."

Yurikawa's expression immediately became conflicted. After much pain, she finally said with difficulty, "Then when you come to find me, please remember to knock on the door so I know it's you. You definitely won't have anywhere to stay then. I'll use a bigger blanket from now on so I can save a place for you, Miko." She really meant it. Her pure, large eyes were filled with fear, but she still planned to build a shrine for Miko and make good offerings to her in the future.

Seeing that Zi couldn't help but laugh, her uneasy mood improved a lot, and after much persuasion, she finally convinced Hua.

Yotsuya Miko came before Tendo Kagura.

"Let's have a good talk," Tendo Kagura said. He had no intention of doing anything to Miko, but he also didn't want to explain too much. Right now, he just wanted to find out what was going on.

"Hmm, where is it?"

These things are not suitable to be discussed in public, and there's no need to find a secluded place specifically for them.

"Let's go to my house," Kagura Tendo said, watching the approaching bus.

The two got into the car. Yuri Kawana stood there, looking worried. She remembered that something similar had happened before.

For example, Miko's rosary beads would break for no reason, and the strange old woman at a fortune-telling shop in the shopping district had a strange conversation with Miko, and some of her behaviors were abnormal.

……

I came to Tendo Kagura's house. Although I had passed by the area many times, this was my first time visiting inside.

It felt like I had entered the boss's lair, but upon entering, I found that the place was simply furnished, bright, and very clean, with neat furniture and almost no dirt or mess.

Kagura poured a glass of water for Miko, which made her feel flattered. What happened to the promise of stripping her naked and subjecting her to severe torture?

"There's no tea, just lukewarm water." Kagura Tendo handed over the water cup. This house hadn't hosted any guests before, so the preparations weren't very thorough.

"Thank you," Jianzi said softly, taking her seat and picking up her teacup to moisten her slightly dry throat.

"First, I have to ask you, can't you really see it?"

Since we're already here, there's no use being afraid anymore.

showdown!

I hope everyone is alright.

Hands clasped together!

Tendou Kagura shook his head and remained silent.

Seeing that Zi had taken a deep breath, he spoke the truth for the first time, saying, "I can see it."

She was initially very nervous, but for some reason, she felt relieved after saying those words.

It was like a huge rock had been dropped to the ground.

Previously, her heart was filled with panic and helplessness.

Now that no evil spirits are causing trouble, she can say whatever she wants without restraint.

Seeing Zi lower her head, stroking the porcelain teacup in her hand, she continued, "Actually, I wasn't able to see it from the beginning. It was during a rainy day recently, when I was waiting for a bus outside the school, that I suddenly discovered I could see it."

“It’s an evil spirit! This world is full of evil spirits.” Miko’s eyes were very serious.

"What is an evil spirit?!" Kagura Tendo tapped the table with her fingers, her expression calm, and asked directly.

"It's the soul of a dead being that has become an evil spirit!" Jianzi said in a low voice, his eyes extremely solemn.

"...Are these evil spirits very powerful?"

Upon hearing this, Jianzi immediately became quite excited.

"It's not a matter of how powerful it is, it's the kind of thing that's terrifying. Take that thing from the milk tea shop earlier, for example. It had four eyes, all of which were floating in the air. It was tall and wore ancient clothes, looking like an ancient warrior. Its black hair was flying around like snakes." As Jianzi spoke, she made intimidating gestures with her hands.

"That's terrifying! I've never seen such a horrible evil spirit. Luckily you were here, otherwise Hua would have been in real trouble. I really don't know why Hua always attracts evil spirits." Jianzi complained after she finished speaking.

After she finished speaking, Kagura Tendo asked again, "Will evil spirits hurt people?"

Jianzi thought for a moment, then shook his head uncertainly.

“Although I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, I have a feeling that if they realize that humans can see them, something terrible will happen,” Jianzi said.

Is that all?

Tendou Kagura suddenly asked.

"Hmm?" Seeing that she was stumped by the question, she blinked at Tendo Kagura's solemn face, her expression extremely innocent.

"I mean, is that all these evil spirits are like?" Kagura Tendo frowned slightly.

"Are you talking about Outer Gods? Natural disasters? Global crises?"

Or is it just an ordinary evil spirit from another world?!

Yotsuya Miko: "..."

Tendou Kagura: "..."

The two looked at each other, speechless, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Seeing that she had carefully taken another sip of tea, and then noticed that Tendo Kagura was staring at her, she buried her head even deeper.

What are Outer Gods? What about natural disasters? Why are there global crises?

Aren't evil spirits scary?

However, she then recalled how that powerful evil spirit had been annihilated without any resistance under the bloodthirsty aura emanating from the Heavenly Dao Kagura.

They had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai.

It's because she has a narrow perspective.

After waiting a moment, Kagura Tendo asked again, "Let me ask you another question: how did you figure me out?"

He felt he was hiding his true intentions well and shouldn't expose them.

Looking back now, I think Jianzi must have noticed his unusual behavior the first time they met, which is why he stood there playing the wooden figure – he thought Jianzi was a performance artist, but later he gradually realized that she had something special about her.

Even without opening the system panel, Kagura Tendou can recite one of his spiritual characteristics.

Fear Aura (Passive): Your soul cannot be looked at directly; any who try to look away will be sensed and terrified. Additionally, your spirit will also be affected by this aura.

……

Please vote! I'll finish the third update as soon as possible.

Actually, the savior just wanted to play single-player mode: Chapter Sixty: Points

However, what puzzled Kagura was that Miko did not trigger the passive effect of the Fear Aura, nor was there any situation where he could sense her.

This time, Jianzi carefully recounted what she had observed.

Tendou Kagura suddenly understood a lot. His dark eyes carried the resentment of hundreds of thousands of monsters, a pressure that even he himself could hardly bear.

Even without triggering its passive ability, it is already extremely terrifying. It is not surprising that it has such a deterrent effect on ordinary people—but the premise is that those people can see the negative power of the Dark Eyes.

Moreover, although he awakened the Dark Eyes, it did not mean that he had completely mastered them.

He felt that the abilities related to Tendou Kagura had not yet been developed, and that it was an extremely mysterious and special power.

To date, all of his Dark Eyes' abilities have been passive.

You don't even know where the blade is, and you have to worry about hurting yourself while swinging it.

He poured himself a glass of water, sipped it gently, and pondered deeply.

The human inner world is extremely complex.

While innate personality is the foundation of everything, the personality formed later in life is even more important.

The system can assess these things, and if certain aspects are powerful enough to stand out, then specific term features can be formed.

His mental characteristics include an aura of fear, a surge of murderous intent, and a resilient spirit.

For example, Kagura Tendo is not talkative and is taciturn, but he has an extremely resilient will and is indomitable. As long as he has a goal, he can persevere. He wandered alone in the dark world for many years, which eventually formed the characteristic of "resilient spirit".

The [Killing Intent Wave] and [Killing Aura] are simply similar traits that arose from the fact that he killed too many monsters with pitch-black eyes.

However, the Fear Aura appeared only under the influence of the Dark Eyes.

He cannot perceive the Son, but the Son can see him.

Suddenly, Tendou Kagura vaguely sensed a similarity.

The last sentence of "The Dark Eyes" refers to those unseen things—does it refer to evil spirits, or something that includes evil spirits?

If it's the former, then he simply can't see evil spirits; if it's the latter, then besides evil spirits, there are other things he can't see either.

If I see it, will something bad happen?

Thinking of this, Kagura Tendou subconsciously touched the area around his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, that's what the system said when the Dark World mission ended.
