Knight Asylum

"Excuse me, what happened?" Reid hung his helmet on the rearview mirror of the Mobile Pegasus, got out of the car and straightened his clothes.

"Is there really another world in the mirror?!" The female college student took out her cell phone and excitedly showed Reid the post on the campus forum.

Red's face changed and he took the phone, flipping through the posts about mirror ghost stories on the forum. As time went by, Red's face became increasingly ugly.

The source of the crazy jumping post is a surveillance video.

In the video, Kirishima Mie was walking alone in an empty corridor. Under the light of the sensor light, only Kirishima Mie's shadow was shaking. But just when Kirishima Mie passed by the classroom, a hand stretched out from a glass and grabbed Kirishima Mie's arm. Although there was no sound in the surveillance video, all the sensor lights lit up at that moment, and Kirishima Mie was dragged into the glass, waving her arms with horror on her face.

This should obviously be a very terrifying thing that everyone is in danger of, but the young people are happy to discuss this horrific incident. Not only did they not stay away, they even showed a strong curiosity to see what the world in the mirror looks like, because Kirishima Mihui did not disappear, but appeared in another teaching building.

Now Kirishima Mihui has opened a live broadcast room and is telling about the beauty of the world in the mirror, as if the world in the mirror is the wonderland in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, full of all kinds of wonders.

Because this is [S·L], even if a wonderland really appeared, it would be a very normal thing. The students of Qingmingyuan University who already knew about the mirror legend are like Columbus who discovered the New World. They are groping around everywhere to find their way into the mirror world for fear that someone will get there first.

Obviously, this was the work of Jun Shibaura. According to Kirishima Mihui's confession yesterday, Jun Shibaura was playing a game of artificially creating incredible strange stories. Jun Shibaura appeared in front of him and Takumi in order to confirm the existence of the strange story in the name of Servais Turia, and the defeat and exposure last night did not make Jun Shibaura give up his game.

Red handed the phone back to the curious female college student and smiled, "Who knows, maybe the world in the mirror really exists in this world."

The more the authorities clarify something, the more firmly people believe that it is true. There is no other reason, just because they hope it is true. Now the students of Qingmingyuan University hope that the mirror world is real, so even if he says it is fake, they will not believe it, and will even believe more firmly that the mirror world exists.

Although, the mirror world really exists...

But it's not that there is no room for turning back. Only those who hold the black box can enter the mirror world. Now the focus of all people's posts is on how to enter the mirror world. Obviously, Jun Shibaura did not spread the black box. As long as Jun Shibaura is captured before he spreads the black box, the mirror world will soon be forgotten and become a joke because there is no way to enter.

But since Shibaura Jun had made Kirishima Mihui do this, he naturally thought about this issue.

So this is a provocation and invitation to battle from Jun Shibaura.

Shaking off those curious college students, Red came to Hideyuki Kagawa's laboratory, which looked a little desolate because it was almost no longer used, and pushed the door open. Mirrors divided the laboratory, which seemed orderly even when no one was using it, into a maze of mirrors.

Virtual images are created through reflection and refraction to achieve the effect of deceiving vision. People walking in the mirror maze will become completely lost after just a few steps. The eyes that seek the truth become a burden, and they can only find the real path through the clumsy method of touching the mirror.

But Red did not run into any obstacles at all. He walked in the maze of mirrors very naturally, and was not affected by his own virtual image brought about by the reflection and refraction of the mirrors.

"Shibaura Jun, your game is over."

Red noticed the exit of the mirror maze, but did not leave. Instead, he chose to stand in the center of the maze, surrounded by mirrors that reflected him from different angles.

Red could feel that Jun Shibaura was here, so he had to be here too.

"The end? What are you talking about—"

A shadow flashed through the mirror behind Red, and soon Jun Shibaura's figure appeared in every mirror.

"My game—"

Jun Shibaura raised the black box in his hand towards Reid. The rhinoceros mark on the black shell was raised and glowed with a golden color.

Jun Shibaura grinned, and with his backhand slid the black box into his belt. All the mirrors lit up at this moment, and shadows were reflected from the mirrors and overlapped on Jun Shibaura's body. The silver-white heavy armor fell, the silver horn on the mask rose, and the scarlet horn on the left shoulder armor extended.

"It's just the beginning, come and enjoy it."

"Enjoying it? Do you think this is interesting?" Reid's shoulders slumped slightly, and he swung his right hand to the right, with the hem fluttering. The red additional belt was opened and buckled on the emerging Aguru.

"Isn't this a matter of course?!"

Ripples appeared in the mirror, and Shibaura Jun leaned over and really rushed out like a rhinoceros. Under the reflection and refraction of the mirror, it seemed as if dozens of Shibaura Jun attacked Red at the same time. But Red was not panicked at all. He turned sideways, raised his right hand and chopped down behind him. Nerve-like energy spread with Yaguru as the center. The golden horns forked upwards, and the silver fangs intertwined, as if a red body from the raging fire emerged in the mirror.

"Bang-"

The metal armor collided with the alienated flesh and blood armor, and dazzling sparks flew and illuminated every mirror.

"what……"

Red eyes were reflected in Shibaura Jun's eyes, the corners of his mouth slowly opened, strange emotions flooded in his heart, he took a few steps back with his hands open.

"Aren't you enjoying it too?"

Chapter 104: Power is not a privilege, but a responsibility

“I’m enjoying it?”

"You're very proud, right? ... You can become this unique."

"Ah~ This body is so enviable. Where did you get this interesting power?"

Jun Shibaura did not rush to launch an attack. He opened his hands and slowly retreated into the mirror. He understood one thing from the previous confrontation. From the perspective of strength alone, he was no match for Red. But since Red could not enter the mirror world, there was no possibility of him losing.

After thinking this through, Jun Shibaura was no longer in a hurry to decide the winner. Through the mirror, Jun Shibaura looked at Reid with a sarcastic look.

"I understand you very well - but look at how you look now, so hypocritical. Why do you have to pretend to be so noble? With so many mirrors here, can't you see yourself clearly?"

"Don't hold it back. Use your unique power more freely. This is our privilege."

Through the mirror world, Jun Shibaura went around behind Red. Just as Jun Shibaura was mocking him calmly, Red suddenly turned around, and his red eyes fell on Jun Shibaura in the mirror world through the mirror.

"So when you got to the mirror world, did you see yourself clearly?"

Shibaura Jun was stunned, his fingers slowly tightened, and the smile under the mask gradually became ferocious, "Don't treat me as an ordinary person, I am also special, but I am better than you."

Suddenly, ripples appeared on all the mirrors, and black shadows jumped out from the mirrors. They were very cunning and had no intention of fighting with Red. They rushed out of the mirrors, attacked and retreated immediately into the mirrors. Even Red was caught off guard by such a group attack and was knocked over and fell on the mirrors.

Jun Shibaura looked down at Red who stood up with the help of the mirror and opened his hands arrogantly. Beside him, dozens of mirror knights wearing black boxes on their waists and armor of different shapes but similar to that of antelopes appeared, pointing at Red and laughing.

"Because I know very well that I am special, and different from you who are hypocritical—"

Red stood up with the help of the mirror. The mirror in front of him clearly reflected his appearance. He was accompanied by Jun Shibaura and the others, but there was no one around him, as if he himself was a false illusion, and the real him should be in the mirror.

Use your power more freely and enjoy it?

How can one enjoy power freely?

Like them, trampling on the rules designed to protect the powerless and acting recklessly?

“Power is not a privilege, it is a responsibility.”

Reid sighed, raised his hand and pressed it on the Aguru belt around his waist. After tightening his fingers slightly, he stood up straight and hooked his finger in the direction of Shibaura Jun.

"But, like you said, I'm already special—"

Before Red finished his words, ripples appeared on the mirror behind him, and the antelope mirror knight with straight spiral horns swung his weapon at Red's head. In the reflections of several mirrors, even the mirror knight himself couldn't tell where his attack was coming from, but Red was extremely sharp and dodged the attack by moving sideways while swung his right arm to hit the mirror knight's belt.

The black box shattered on the spot, leaving several afterimages. The yellow-haired man, who had lost the support of the extraordinary power of the mirror world, fell to the ground with a thud. Before he could scream out in pain, he felt a huge force hitting the back of his neck. He was pulled up, and a pair of huge red eyes occupied his field of vision. All his shouting and cursing were suppressed under the gaze of these eyes.

"So I won't hesitate like before whether I can do it or not. You—the degree certificate is gone."

Red pushed the yellow-haired man away with his hands, then slid back between the two mirror knights from behind. He pulled his elbows back and accurately hit their belts. The black box shattered on the spot, and the two college students who lost the power of the mirror knights fell out due to inertia.

"You too, I've memorized your appearances. If you don't want to sit in the automatic confessional chair, you'd better report to the dean yourself."

Reid glanced at the mirrors around him and scolded coldly.

"You too."

The mirror knights in the mirror world took a step back one after another. Surrounded by the mirror maze, they themselves were not very clear about their exact locations, but they found their locations through Red's eyes.

"The mirror game is over, it's time to face reality."

The knights in the mirror were shaken, but facing the extremely vast and silent mirror world, the dark emotions in their hearts instantly overwhelmed the shakes brought by Red.

Here, they own a world and they are the masters of this vast world. Now let them go back to that narrow world where they are not so special?

“This is reality!!!”

The antelope-shaped mirror knights rushed out, and their appearance was reflected in Kuuga's red eyes. They were still covered in metal armor, but they were like wild beasts. In the middle of the black box on their belts, there were antelope-like marks of different shapes protruding in the middle, showing different colors.

"Really? What a pity."

Tiny cracks spread on the intact mirror surface. Accompanied by strong winds, the mirrors that made up the mirror maze shattered one after another. Figures were thrown out and fell heavily to the ground and rolled out. They stood up with trembling hands. The black box on their waist was already covered with cracks and turned into fragments and scattered all over the ground before they could even do anything.

"why is it like this--"

Just as they were groping their waists unwillingly, a crisp sound of shattering was heard. They all looked up and saw lenses of different sizes on the ground being gradually crushed. Red eyes lit up in the darkness, and they walked out of the darkness. The body that looked like the incarnation of fire was like a demon.

"Living in the same place as me, this is the reality you want," a hoarse voice squeezed out from between the silver fangs.

A chill ran up their spines, fear, just pure fear.

"monster……"

"monster!"

"Monster!"

They screamed, got up and ran away without looking back.

“Congratulations on your graduation.”

It was not the first time that Red was called a monster, but he did not feel disappointed. If they continued to abuse the mirror world, even if they were not eroded by the mirror world, they would be targeted by dangerous monsters sooner or later. Something would happen to them one day. After all, they were not residents of the mirror world, and everything they wanted was outside the mirror.

"Not yet... not over yet!"

The bookshelf that collapsed due to the impact was thrown away roughly, and Jun Shibaura staggered out of it, kicking the things in front of him hard, as frantic as an angry rhino.

"It's over, don't you understand? The world in the mirror is only your fantasy. This is reality."

Chapter 105 Reflection in the Mirror

Jun Shibaura still remembers the words his father, the president, said the most.

People are different

That's right, people are different. The lives of most people in this world are cheap. He is different from others. The carefree life that others desire is what he is born with. He was born to enjoy everything, but [S·L] deprived him of the right to enjoy. He was forced to be like everyone else and could only be a foil to make others special. His life is cheap and inconspicuous.

But all this changed when he discovered these black boxes leading to the mirror world in Hideyuki Kagawa's laboratory.

He owns a world! In front of this world, [S·L] is just a playground for him to have fun.

But now I tell him...

Is the only thing in the mirror your own fantasy?

This kind of thing...

How can this be true!!!

Jun Shibaura's eyes were red and he rushed towards Red, waving his arms wildly. Red's words were like a spell that imprisoned his brain. He could no longer enjoy himself as before. Only by defeating Red could he prove that he was right and break the reality that restricted him.

"Click——"

Something was indeed broken, but it was not the reality he was tired of, but the belt around his waist. Red's ruthless punch shattered his fantasy and the black box together.

Red pulled his fist back and slapped Jun Shibaura to the ground.

Different approaches should be adopted to treat different people. Ise Ayaka is only sixteen or seventeen years old and not yet an adult. Her actions are more driven by the atmosphere. In addition, everyone has a certain escapist mentality of not wanting to bear the fatigue brought by growing up, so he is willing to wait patiently, and the result is very good. Ise Ayaka gave up the understandable escape and took the initiative to bear the fatigue brought by the past escape.

But Shibaura Jun is different. To put it simply, he is a conceited and fun-loving person. All his actions are based on his own heart and he despises the lives of others. He has nothing to say to such a person.

"Your game is over."

Red lowered his hands, glanced at Jun Shibaura who was lying in the mirror fragments, turned around and changed from Kuuga form back to his original form, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and was about to report the situation to the control tower when Jun Shibaura struggled to stand up, roared with red eyes and rushed towards Red.

"Don't be ridiculous! My game has just begun!"

Reid, who had no intention of pleasing Jun Shibaura, turned sideways and punched Jun Shibaura in the abdomen. The pain he had never felt before made Jun Shibaura's legs go weak, and he fell to his knees among the broken pieces of the mirror. This time, Jun Shibaura couldn't stand up. He could only lie among the broken pieces of the mirror, holding his stomach and breathing hard, regardless of the fact that the broken pieces of the mirror were reflected in his contracted pupils, and the broken pieces of the mirror were reflecting his current miserable appearance.

This is not true…

How could this be true!

From obtaining the black box and entering the mirror world, to playing his game through the mirror world, scenes emerged before his eyes and finally overlapped on the fragments of the mirror in front of him.

"Fake--"

"Let me go back..."

Just as Red was about to contact the control tower, he saw Jun Shibaura holding a piece of mirror and muttering to himself like a madman. Red frowned slightly. Although he hated Jun Shibaura, Jun's reaction was obviously wrong now. Even when his hand was cut by the mirror and bleeding, he did not let go. Just as Red was about to check on Jun Shibaura's condition, Jun Shibaura suddenly yelled at the piece of mirror in his hand.

"Let me go back! I shouldn't be here!"

"Hey - you're -"

Before Reid finished his words, the fragments of the mirror in Shibaura Jun's hand lit up as if in response to Shibaura Jun's roar, and all the fragments of the mirrors around changed. In the mirror surface, shadows overlapped on Shibaura Jun's body. Although he did not use the black box, Shibaura Jun put on the previous armor.

“That’s it—that’s it!!!”

Jun Shibaura suddenly stood up and knocked Reid away, opening his arms and letting out a comfortable roar. Jun Shibaura's body began to change in the mirror fragments, his body kept rising, and all the metal armor began to wriggle like muscles, and in a blink of an eye he was twisted into a humanoid rhinoceros mirror beast.

Mirrors reflect and refract reality and change according to reality, but in front of Red, this law is reversed, because Jun Shibaura in the mirror has undergone a mutation, so the Jun Shibaura in front of him has also turned into a humanoid rhinoceros mirror beast.

Reid rolled over to avoid the attack from the Rhino Mirror Beast, jumped back, and created some distance between him. He stared at the violent Rhino Mirror Beast with a frown on his face. Aguru appeared, and the restrictive belt was activated.

He didn't understand. He had clearly broken the belt, but Shibaura Jun was still eroded by the mirror world and turned into a mirror beast.

Is it possible that the black box is not the problem of erosion? Or does it mean that once you put on the black box and enter the mirror world, you will be eroded by the mirror world?

Reid let out a long breath and put the phone back in his pocket. He waved his left and right hands alternately, and was about to transform into Kuuga to fight Mirror Beast when a blue blade-shaped flame pierced through the abdomen of Rhino Mirror Beast. The Rhino Mirror Beast, which had been irritable just now, stiffened and slowly fell down. Behind Rhino Mirror Beast, a figure emerged.
