In the anime, people are in everyday Tokyo, but they are playing the reincarnation game

"I didn't even know at first that there was a place other than my own home in this world... This room is my entire world."

Noticing the slightly lonely mood of Hat Mita, Yuuki Asuna also felt a little sad. When she was about to comfort her, she saw Hat Mita smiling again, running to Asagiri, and making a cute swaying gesture again.

"But as long as the players stay by my side, even if it's just this room, I'll be satisfied~"

Hearing this, Yuuki Asuna and Iwanaga Kotoko both looked a little unhappy, but before the two women could react, they saw Kato Megumi quietly, like a ghost, walked between Hat Mita and Asagiri, separating her from Asagiri.

"Ms. Mita, we can't completely trust you right now, so please stay away from him, okay?"

"Eh?"

Hat Mita seemed to understand the situation in front of him, and just stared at Asagiri, as if trying to see something from his face.

"That's enough. This is a dungeon. If we want to play Shura Field, we can talk about it after we get back."

Asagiri just said this lightly, then looked at the female ghost whose hair was pulled by Yuuki Asuna. She did not continue to scream, but just scanned everyone in the house with her eyes full of resentment, and walked over slowly.

Asuna Yuuki understood what she meant, and she picked up the female ghost who had lost her limbs from the ground and handed it to Asagiri, just like handing a plastic bag filled with goods.

"Can you talk?"

The female ghost said nothing, but stared at Chaowu with her eyes filled with hatred, as if she wanted to eat him alive...

"Snapped!"

Asagiri raised his right hand and gave the female ghost a loud slap. Because the female ghost was lifted up by her hair by Yuuki Asuna, after being slapped with such force, her body, which had lost its limbs, swayed like a swing.

"Wuhu Wuhu~"

Seeing this scene, Hat Mita clapped his hands behind him, looking very excited.

"Let me hit it, let me hit it~ It looks like fun~"

"Then come on."

Under the slightly speechless gaze of Iwanaga Kotoko, Kato Megumi and Yuuki Asuna, Hat Mita walked directly in front of the female ghost, with a hard baseball bat in his hand. He raised his hand to adjust his hat, then twisted his hips and swung the baseball bat towards the female ghost's waist.

"boom!!!"

Hat Mita swung the baseball bat with such force that the ghost girl's body became like a yo-yo. Her long black hair, which was used as a yo-yo string, followed the curve of her body and wrapped around Yuuki Asuna's hand before falling down and continuing to swing.

"Wuhu~Home Run~"

Seeing Hat Mita's appearance, Yuuki Asuna couldn't help but feel curious.

"Mita, aren't you afraid at all?"

Hat Mita tilted his head slightly in confusion: "What are you afraid of?"

Then, without waiting for Yuuki Asuna to speak, Hat Mita said with a smile.

"Oh, I understand what you mean, but it doesn't matter. As long as there are players around me, I'm not afraid of anything~"

Upon hearing this, Yuuki Asuna couldn't help but sigh helplessly with her hand on her forehead.

"Okay, okay, I know you like him very much, so can you stop emphasizing it?"

Yuuki Asuna really didn't know what to do.

Logically speaking, as Asagiri's official girlfriend, she should be jealous and unhappy when she hears someone openly declare their love for her boyfriend. The problem is...

Mita was originally set up as an NPC in a love game. To be honest, it was four people who broke into her territory, which eventually led to this situation.

Asuna Yuuki looked at the cute and playful hat Mita was shaking there, and couldn't help thinking in her heart.

This copy is really torturous...

096 Secret Passage in the Room

"This thing probably can't talk. Continuing torturing it is just a waste of time."

After hearing what Iwanaga Kotoko said, Yuuki Asuna couldn't help but become curious.

"Why are you so sure?"

"Of course, I'm an expert in this area."

Kotoko Iwanaga raised her cane and pointed at the female ghost held in Yuuki Asuna's hand. She was first slapped by Asagiri and then hit with a baseball bat by Hat Mita, but the resentment in her eyes did not diminish at all. She said lightly.

"Although this thing is a monster, it's different from the ghosts and evil spirits we've encountered. It's not a monster transformed from a dead person, but... well, how should I describe it?"

"Simply put, it's a strange phenomenon, born from the thoughts of certain people in an area completely invaded by strangeness. It lacks any consciousness and only acts on pure resentment, a curse that is impossible to communicate with."

"It only appears in a human-like appearance for some reason, but it has never been human, just like the strange water in that hotel dungeon."

After hearing what Iwanaga Kotoko said, Asagiri nodded without comment.

"Oh, that's how it is."

The next second, the rope dart weapon appeared in his hand, and he stabbed the tip directly into the forehead of the female ghost.

"In that case, just give me some mental strength."

Watching the female ghost's body turn into a ball of black mist and dissipate, Kato Megumi rotated the ominous dagger in her hand and looked at Iwanaga Kotoko.

"Is there any way to get through that corridor outside?"

"It seems the only way to break through is by force."

Iwanaga Kotoko said thoughtfully, "But I don't know where the source of this strangeness lies. And judging from what happened just now, every painting hanging in the corridor has a strange creature. Not only are there many of them, but they're also quite powerful. Forcing our way through... the risk is too high."

"Is there actually a challenge of this difficulty..."

Kato Megumi pursed her lips and asked tentatively.

"Could it be that... all dungeons in the second stage are this difficult? Or is this one the only special one?"

Yuuki Asuna frowned, thinking hard, with a conflicted look in her eyes.

"I don't know the goal to clear the level, and there's no public hint. Even in this situation, a terrifying corridor filled with evil spirits still appears... How on earth can I complete the level..."

"Calm down."

Just when everyone felt helpless and didn't know what to do, Asagiri walked to the door of the living room, grasped the door handle, and spoke in a calm tone.

"Given our team's strength, if a level appears that even we're unsure of passing, it means that this level wasn't originally intended for players to pass, and..."

Having said that, Chaowu opened the door of the living room. Outside was still the long corridor full of oil paintings, but the paintings that had originally fallen to the ground were hung again on the walls on both sides.

He pointed to the oil painting closest to the gate and said lightly.

"Why did the warning only appear after Necro had walked ten meters? There was clearly a strange presence in the initial painting, so why wasn't there a warning from the beginning? In other words, why is there a ten-meter safety distance in this strange corridor? What is this ten-meter safety distance used for?"

"you mean..."

After hearing what Asagiri said, Iwanaga Kotoko seemed to have thought of something, and spoke to Yuuki Asuna, Kato Megumi, and Hat Mita.

"Everyone come out."

When everyone came out and stood in the corridor, Asagiri closed the door leading to the living room again. Then, instead of turning around and walking into the depths of the corridor, he opened the door in front of him again.

"Zizzizi..."

Accompanied by a slight sound of electricity, what appeared before their eyes was no longer the cozy apartment where Hat Mita lived, but a living room with a similar structure but extremely dim. The walls were covered with "I LOVE U" in large and small letters with blood-like dye, which was creepy.

"I see..."

Kotoko Iwanaga observed the living room inside the door, sensing whether there was any strange aura, and muttered to herself.

"The only way to get to this place is to walk out onto the corridor, close the gate, and then reopen it... No wonder there's a ten-meter safety distance and a warning about paintings falling and shattering. It's a reminder that there's a dead end ahead."

Kato Megumi was curious when she heard this.

"Since there's a reminder, does that mean that even though the system app can't be opened, the difficulty of this dungeon has been determined by the system, and it's not a dead end with no hope of passing it?"

Yuuki Asuna nodded firmly. "That's definitely the case. Since the system provides us with the option to enter this dungeon, it can't be a dead end."

Then, she spoke again.

"Besides, the system has actually already given us a hint."

"hint?"

“Yes, the lack of a prompt and the inability to open the app are actually a kind of prompt.”

Yuuki Asuna looked at the cute hat Mita who was still swaying there and spoke softly.

"Although we haven't seen the Mita with the twintails yet, from the information Miss Mita provided, it seems all 'Mitas' are in-game programs. Combined with the strange phenomena we encountered before entering the dungeon, and the inability to open the app on our phones after entering, it seems the Mita with the twintails must be able to interfere with our phones in some way, or even directly block the function of the app."

"So that's it..."

Kato Megumi nodded as if she understood, her eyes flickering as if she was thinking about something. After a few seconds, she raised her head, looked at Asagiri, and said softly.

"But, according to Ms. Mita, only Leader's real name was revealed, so..."

Having said this, Kato Megumi suddenly stopped and just looked at Asagiri. After seeing the latter nodded, she immediately understood.

"Well, that's enough analysis."

"Just right."

Listening to the discussion of several people, Iwanaga Kotoko, who had been observing the inside of the door, spoke softly.

"I roughly sensed it, and there's no strange aura in this room, but we can't be careless. After all, I can only sense strange things, and I can't sense other types of enemies. Anyway, let's go in first."

It was still the same formation, Yuuki Asuna walked in front, Iwanaga Kotoko and Kato Megumi followed behind her, and Asagiri walked side by side with Hat Mita. This was not to create opportunities for the two of them, but because Asagiri was the strongest. If Hat Mita wanted to do something, he would be able to discover it first.

After entering the house and closing the door, they searched around and found that, apart from the dimness and the strange red lettering on the wall, the furnishings in this room were similar to those in Hat Mita's room, except for the lack of items like the electric guitar that represented her personal attributes.

"Eh? How could this happen..."

Hearing Hat Mita's puzzled muttering, Asagiri asked.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"It shouldn't be like this..."

Hat Mita had a cute puzzled expression on his face, and even stopped his habitual shoulder shaking.

"Logically, every house should have a corresponding Mita. There won't be two Mitas, but there will also be no Mitas without one. Looking at the furnishings in this house, it must be Mita's home, but why is there no Mita here?"

Yuuki Asuna asked tentatively.

"Is it possible that he ran away to some other place?"

"probably not."

Hat Mita shook his head and moved closer to Asagiri.

"Before I met Mr. Player, I had no intention of leaving. After all, our duty at Mita is to wait for the players to arrive, so this kind of situation is unlikely to happen."

"So, Mita, who was supposed to stay in this room, violated the program and left on his own..."

Hearing Yuuki Asuna's mumbling, Kato Megumi and Iwanaga Kotoko both had the same guess as her.

Could the owner of this house be Mita, the one with twin ponytails and obviously mentally unstable?

At this moment, a faint sound suddenly rang out in the house.

“Boom…Boom…Boom…”

Asuna Yuuki's expression changed, and she immediately took out her Exorcist sword and held it in her hand. After listening carefully for a while, she frowned slightly.

"The direction of the sound seems to be coming from the bedroom."

"I'll go take a look."

Kato Megumi volunteered and directly activated her talent effect, then walked towards the bedroom.

After observing carefully for a while, she turned her head to look at Chaowu and others.

"There shouldn't be any danger. The sound came from inside the closet."

"Wardrobe?"

Asuna Yuuki walked into the bedroom, and just as Kato Megumi said, there seemed to be something in the closet, making a slight vibrating sound.

"Get ready to open the door."

"it is good."

Kato Megumi walked to the side of the wardrobe and gently placed one hand on the metal handle of the wardrobe.
