To be honest, Patchouli, who was experiencing this kind of thing for the first time, was almost overwhelmed by the power.

If she wasn't the only one here with her, she would have been completely eroded by this inherent barrier. She was sure that these humans were absolutely unable to resist this desire, so they became like this.

The existence was like a walking corpse, but what surprised Patchouli was——

It's really shocking that this power can even corrode Servants.

"crunch..."

The door opened and a young girl walked in slowly. After glancing at Patchouli with her calm eyes, she sat down opposite Patchouli very calmly and picked up a cup of black tea, not considering herself an outsider at all.

The girl had slender hands and feet, skin so white it looked like nothing in the sun, and cold black eyes. Her expression was neither sad nor happy, and her short, shoulder-length hair was pure black. She wore a black dress resembling a monastic robe. At first glance, she looked like a completely emotionless doll, a fear that filled one's heart.

Because the unknown is the most terrifying thing for human beings.

But Patchouli knew that being expressionless and emotionless was only an appearance.

The inner emotions of this young girl in front of me are actually hotter and more intense than anyone else's.

It’s just that the girl hasn’t encountered anything that allows her to vent these intense emotions.

"What's it like outside?" Patchouli didn't look up, but just lowered her head to look at her book and asked silently.

In a sense, these two people are really a perfect match. They are both the type of people who don't like to talk much.

"Same old, nothing has changed, but the barrier's erosion of us is getting worse and worse..."

As she said this, a faint blush appeared on the girl's fair skin. There was nothing she could do. The power here would erode her as well. Even Patchouli needed to use her own power to suppress it.

By the way, Patchouli's cheeks are much redder now than before. At first glance, it looks like a healthy blush, but in fact...

Glancing at the girl in front of her, Patchouli waved her right hand, and a bookshelf filled with magic power appeared next to the girl, causing the girl's right hand holding the cup of black tea to subconsciously pause.

I saw a magic book was quickly pulled out from the bookshelf, and the huge magic power wrapped around the girl.

Gradually, the blush on the girl's face faded and gradually turned white. At the same time, the girl breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the slowly disappearing bookshelf, a hint of curiosity finally emerged in the girl's calm eyes.

"It seems that you also have quite a few books on magic, and some that I have never seen before!"

After all, the girl had never heard of the name Patchouli Noreki, but she actually claimed to be a heroic spirit.

"The Voile Magic Library, that's my Noble Phantasm. It can recreate the library I once had. The steel material has only freed up a small part. You can view it anytime you want! Kuonji..."

Patchouli said this lightly, but her words made the girl in front of her look at her a little more.

That was the library owned by the other party, but the other party actually allowed others to read it at will. If it were this girl, she would never let others enter her territory casually!

——Kyuonji Yuju, this is the Servant summoned by Patchouli, but——

By the way, Patchouli doesn't like to call the other party Youzhu, and is used to calling the other party Jiuyuan Temple. The reason is very simple. There is no way. The pronunciation of Youzhu's name is exactly the same as Alice's. Patchouli is really a little uncomfortable with it...

Calling that person's name always reminds me of that blonde puppeteer...

Chapter 978: Pure Malice! The "Servant" Who Indulges

Honestly, Koizumi is quite curious about the strange city Walpurgis mentioned she had stayed in before.

Because Walpurgis has a saintly side no matter what. Even though her nature as a saint may have changed dramatically due to the influence of Walpurgis Night, one thing will not change.

Even for a Servant who descended as an innocent monster, it was only the slandered side that became part of his strength. In other words, even though the Saint's Walpurgis had a demonic side, it was definitely the Saint's side that prevailed.

The sacred aura emanating from her can explain it all. This girl is still the saint.

Even if Vlad III does not actively use Dracula's power, he is still Vlad III, not Dracula.

The same is true for Youyouko (Xixingyao). As long as she does not use the power of Xixingyao, she will still be Youyouko of Saigyouji.

Therefore, as long as this saint has enough self-reflection, she who is summoned as Saint Walpurgis will not become Walpurgis Night, and Saint Walpurgis will not use this demonic power actively when he is full and has nothing to do!

This is also one of the reasons why Koizumi feels at ease with her. After all, she is still a saint.

Since she is a saint, why would she have nothing to do after eating and actively use other powers besides that of a saint?

However, being at ease does not mean trust. There is still a huge gap between the two. Gu Quan only thinks that she can help him find clues, but it does not mean that Gu Quan will accept the other party as his comrade-in-arms. In other singularities, it is very simple for Gu Quan to treat those people as his comrades-in-arms so easily, because at that time Gu Quan was not alone. Even when it was the little emperor, Gu Quan knew the other party inside and out, so even if the little emperor concealed something, Gu Quan did not say anything.

The little emperor was so easy to understand, and he'd been an enemy before...

But the situation is different now. Gu Quan is the only one here, and the environment is so strange. Even he almost fell into the trap before, so Gu Quan is inevitably very cautious and will not trust others so easily.

Furthermore, with the anecdote about Saint Walpurgis, how could Koizumi not be more cautious?

Finally arriving at the city Saint Walpurgis had mentioned, Koizumi subconsciously stopped and—

Staring at the city before him, Koizumi's eyes widened to their maximum size ever, his body suddenly tense.

DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER!!! ...

Koizumi's body trembled slightly at that moment due to the perception ability trained by Esdeath's crazy killing.

Different from human evil, it is the purest malice, as if the most terrifying demon lives in it.

Human evil is different. Human evil is not so-called malice. In essence, human evil is actually human love.

Although he verbally said he wanted to destroy humanity, he was actually baring his fangs against the current stability in pursuit of a better future. So it wasn't really malice at all, on the contrary, it was love.

The Journey to the West Demon wants to destroy the world because his own death will bring pain to people, so if this possibility is destroyed, the possibility of no Journey to the West Demon will lead mankind to a better future.

Although Nero came as a Beast to destroy humanity, that was also because Nero's love for his people and for humanity was too ardent. Excessive kindness will lead to the wrong outcome, which is very normal, and that is what happened to Nero.

Therefore, these evil beasts are nothing at best. They just possess powerful strength.

But the being before him was not such a kind-hearted fellow. He was such an evil that he could make people collapse just by standing before him.

That is the enemy of all intelligent life forms, a terrifying existence called desire.

This city has fallen into the abyss of desire and cannot escape.

"Mr. Koizumi?" Saint Walpurgis had already learned Koizumi's name along the way. At this moment, she was puzzled by Koizumi's inexplicable pause. What had happened? Or had he noticed something strange about the city?

Koizumi's intuition was at its peak at this moment. Just by sensing the presence before him, he felt as if his rationality was being eroded. However, it was precisely because of this that Koizumi's intuition was maximized.

At this moment, Koizumi couldn't help but smile bitterly. This was the first time he encountered such a situation.

What if he doesn't dare to go in? What if he goes in and loses control and turns into a beast?

This was the first time Koizumi encountered such a bizarre existence, a pure "Servant" that could only lead to indulgence...

But Patchouli is inside, so Koizumi is not worried about Patchouli. He is considered a sage in the field of magic, and this situation can be completely solved by simply giving himself a meditation spell.

It is easy to deal with such an existence, but it is also difficult to deal with it.

By the way, the reason why I put quotation marks around the word "servant" is that I don't know whether it was the servant who did this.

"Huh~~~" Koizumi exclaimed softly, his gaze turning to Saint Walpurgis, who was looking at him with a worried look on his face.

"Hey, Walpurgis, did you feel anything strange after you went in?"

"Strange feeling?" Walpurgis was also slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Koizumi to ask such a question.

However, Walpurgis still answered Koizumi's question very honestly.

The reason was simple. She had almost come to see Koizumi as a savior who could solve the problem.

Although there was no obvious admiration on his face, Gu Quan could still see the respect in his eyes.

"Speaking of strange feelings, there are indeed some. Whenever I'm in this city, I feel suffocated. I only feel better when I leave the city. There's nothing else to say!"

In other words, this power is not as corrosive as imagined for the saint who possesses a sacred aura?

Koizumi vaguely guessed what was going on, but didn't say anything.

He had to go in, because no matter what, Patchouli was still in there, and as the Master, Koizumi had to bring her out. As for why he didn't use Command Seals, the Servant summoned by Patchouli should also be in there, and he couldn't bring anyone out using only his own Command Seals. Incidentally, Patchouli didn't have Command Seals, she only had a contract but no Command Seals to bind her, so it was useless to just get Patchouli out, he still had to go in.

This is what is called, those who are capable should do more work...

Gu Quan sighed inwardly and secretly summoned all the strength in his body. When his desires arose, the strength in his body should be able to play a certain role in suppressing them.

As Koizumi headed towards the city, Walpurgis quickly followed.

However, the moment he entered the city, Walpurgis looked dazed for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

This scene did not escape Koizumi's sight.

Chapter 979: Patchouli is doing lesbian?

Koizumi has always been wary of Walpurgis. He has said before that Walpurgis is likely to be influenced by Walpurgis Night and become a demonic Servant. This is not impossible, but very likely. Compared to Saint Walpurgis, Walpurgis Night is more famous. It has to be said that this is a bit ironic.

The moment Koizumi entered the city, he merely glanced at Walpurgis, but he discovered—

The moment he stepped into the city, Walpurgis looked dazed, as if he had been affected by something.

At that moment, Koizumi was certain of one thing: there was something wrong with this girl. Even if she wasn't a demonic Servant, she wasn't an ordinary saint. Something must have happened to her, but so far, she might not have noticed it herself.

After all, Koizumi had been observing her for so long, and he couldn't tell that she was acting or anything.

If she could even deceive Koizumi, it meant that this girl's acting skills had reached a very high level.

But Koizumi didn't think so. After all, no matter how good one's acting was, there would always be mistakes. So Koizumi didn't think the other party was acting.

Since it wasn't acting, it meant that she herself hadn't noticed it, but now was not the time to expose her.

Koizumi knew that the most important thing right now was not to resolve the current anomaly, but to investigate the anomaly of the entire incident.

In this case, it is necessary to preserve Saint Walpurgis's existence. At least until Koizumi and Patchouli reunite, Koizumi must ensure Saint Walpurgis's safety. Sometimes, even if you know the enemy is your enemy, for the sake of long-term plans, you must tolerate their existence. You can't achieve great things just for the sake of petty gains.

Of course, after entering this city, Koizumi really didn't have the time to care about Saint Walpurgis.

Although he had boosted his internal strength to its maximum, the opponent's power, which targeted his inner desires, did catch Koizumi off guard. Subconsciously, Koizumi covered his chest, his face darkening slightly.

Fortunately, I was prepared in advance, otherwise if I was hit by this thing as soon as I came in, it would be really a big deal.

He glanced at Saint Walpurgis at the side again. To Koizumi's surprise, although the girl looked restless, she was not as embarrassed as he had imagined. Moreover, the sacred aura on her body was much stronger than before. This was not a sudden increase, but a subconscious release of the sacred aura in her body.

It seems that although Saint Walpurgis is unaware of his own power, this power has a self-defense effect.

The various mixed powers within Koizumi's body began to intertwine crazily. Among them, Reimu's power flowed through his body like a clear spring, gradually suppressing the nameless fire that had originally risen. This actually surprised Koizumi a little.

Reimu's spiritual power actually has this kind of use. No wonder the shrine maiden spends all day burning incense and bathing to cleanse the filth in her body.

But this is normal. Many monsters are formed because of negative emotions such as resentment. The spiritual power of the witch can purify this kind of monsters. In this case, the power called desire can theoretically be suppressed.

His body felt a little more relaxed, and Gu Quan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At least everything was fine!

"It seems you've also been caught up in this anomaly! And... you're here too, Saint Walpurgis..."

Patchouli's voice suddenly rang out, startling Koizumi and Walpurgis, who quickly looked away.

Patchouli stared blankly at Koizumi and Walpurgis, but her cheeks flushed unnaturally, which made Koizumi's gaze suddenly become strange. Anyway, Patchouli was with a woman, right?

If Patchouli can't solve this problem in her body, then the only last resort is—

Yuri... Koizumi's mouth twitched fiercely, and although he was speechless, why...

Is there a certain anticipation? Koizumi said, "I think I'm really eager to see it..."

In an instant, Patchouli felt something was wrong with Koizumi's gaze, and the blush on her face deepened.

She was not an idiot, of course she knew what Koizumi's look meant. After all, Koizumi knew about the abnormality of this city, and after seeing the blush on her face, how could she not guess what Koizumi was thinking?

Giving Koizumi a stern glare, Patchouli walked up to him and thrust the magic book directly at his face.

"Snapped--!!"

"I didn't do the dirty things you imagined! I'm a... a magician after all!"

Patchouli originally wanted to say witch, but after thinking about the saint beside her, she silently changed her words.

She did not tell Walpurgis that she was a witch, but only said that she was a magician. In the eyes of some people in the church, people who use magic are heretics, but not all believers would have such an idea about the existence of magicians.

There are also believers in modern cathedral churches who have close ties with magic families.

However, the relationship between witches and the church is really incompatible. It is better in modern times. After all, modern heirs of witch bloodlines basically live a secluded life. Even if there are any, they will join the Magic Association. But in the past, the witch trials were no joke. Although Patchouli has not experienced it, she is still wary of this kind of saint.

What if he is a guy who likes to stir up trouble and dislikes the witch?

Patchouli doesn't want to have an enemy for no reason.

"Hey hey...just think of it as my overthinking. Anyway, are you alone? Isn't there someone else with you?"

Gu Quan covered his forehead with his hands, feeling helpless. How could he have accidentally revealed his inner thoughts?

As expected, I am an honest person and cannot hide things...

Afterwards, Koizumi turned his attention to the fairy tale witch. There was no other way. Koizumi had seen very few witches. Medea was not one of them. At most, she was a magician from the Age of Gods. The reason she was called a witch was mostly because of her own style and behavior, so she was given the title of a treacherous witch. In fact, she did not have witch blood.

The one who can truly be considered a witch is Medea's aunt, Circe...
