You say this is a love game?

The golden flame burned slowly and did not go out.

The air was filled with a burning smell mixed with ashes. The tree roots that had been entrenched at the entrance to the underground floor were now ignited by the scorching golden flames. They were suppressed and curled up on the ground in layers. Their shapes were charred and twisted, as if they had suffered unbearable burning.

The warm flame still dances—

Every time new roots tried to grow and re-block the passage, the flames would pounce on them like a living thing and burn them completely!

The road was opened.

The underground floor, which was supposed to take Kagura Hokorin 48 hours to crack, was now torn open by the flames, creating a crack leading to the underground.

Makoto Mizutani bent down and picked up a special prop on the ground.

【The Soul of Furuya Ruriko】

[Description: Gain 400 souls after use]

【Comment: Please save all this. 】

Mizutani Makoto realized something in an instant. He stared at the burning golden flame and subconsciously took a deep breath, feeling the warm air waves coming from all directions and penetrating deep into his lungs.

"call……"

Okay.

With the cases of Yoshiko Satori and Kei Matsushita as examples, Makoto Mizutani immediately understood what kind of situation this was.

As long as Furuya Ruriko's soul is still there, there will be a thought.

After putting [Ruriko Furuya's Soul] into his backpack, Mizutani Makoto did not show any sadness or sorrow. On the contrary, a certain suppressed emotion in his pupils grew stronger and stronger. Under the secret medicine state, he was already bloodthirsty and warlike, and now the torrent of emotions hit his soul directly, making him make a decision in an instant.

At this moment, footsteps were heard behind him.

Mizutani Makoto narrowed his eyes slightly and looked outside the school building.

A figure appeared in the field of vision, dragging a large sword, and his aura was vaguely visible at the "Bingshangwei" position.

——Kurosawa Ryohito.

Lightning crackled in the air, and a burning smell was heard.

The middle-aged man in front of him was different from any he had ever seen before. His impression of Kurosawa Ryohito was that of a simple and honest physical education teacher, until the documents and records in the principal's office revealed the tip of the iceberg of this man's true face.

He is now certain that Kurosawa Ryohito is not innocent. Compared to the ordinary person Sato Ayako who is completely unaware of the situation, he is undoubtedly the real evil as an exorcist who still works for Yajimazu.

However, this guy who was suspected to be one of the masterminds behind the scenes now held a stack of talismans in his hand, and even had the [Sword Demon's Nodachi] rolled up from the Kendo Club's dojo. The fraudster holding the large sword appeared in front of him, as if he was ready to fight him to the death.

He raised his head, but his eyes were filled with emptiness.

There has always been a funny joke in Soul Travel: the player unknowingly reaches a certain condition, and then the plot will move forward without the player's knowledge, and the fate of certain NPCs will be determined. There is a probability that the next time you meet them, they will be red-named, and there is also a probability that when you find the NPC again, the other party will only have equipment left on the ground.

Makoto Mizutani is one of those people who understood the background story, but still didn't understand what happened tonight.

Judging from the situation, it is highly likely that the previous "solar eclipse" has been activated again.

Perhaps it was with the invasion of the shadow girl that the story began to enter the CG.

He would also feel sorry that the boss did not play by the rules. How could there be such a cautious boss?

But this world is not a real soul wandering world after all. The opponent will not really follow the established procedures like an NPC. The BOSS brazenly launched the final scene, and all he can do is follow.

"Thirty-six seconds left..."

Mizutani Makoto's precise control of time made him extremely clear about the duration of his [Secret Medicine for Boiling Blood].

The power gained by burning one's life is like the sun reaching dusk, still emitting residual heat, but also very close to setting.

But that's just a short time...

With his current strength, how fast can he kill one and take over?

This was not originally the ultimate killing move prepared for the level 2 people, so how difficult is it to kill them?

The Onmyojis just now have already given the answer.

——Not even five seconds.

"Lei go!"

A low shout was heard, like a loud thunderclap.

Mizutani Makoto's figure rushed out like a flash of lightning, leaving a lingering flash of lightning and a burnt smell in the air.

The distance of thirty meters passed in a flash.

During his lifetime, Kurosawa Ryojin was a mid-level exorcist, and was considered elite in the Yajima family, capable of suppressing the vengeful spirits of a region. However, after falling into the rift, influenced by his obsession and resentment, his spiritual power not only did not weaken, but instead rose to a high level due to his long-term immersion in the rift.

However, for an Onmyoji, his death causes him to lose his Shikigami and all his heritage.

Without those means to support him, his fighting style became monotonous and fragile.

Can the improvement of spiritual power fill the gap in a series of means?

The lightning flashed like a flame, and Mizutani Makoto was approaching Kurosawa Ryohito. In just a moment, the figure of the trickster was chopped into pieces and turned into an illusory afterimage.

Is it a clone technique? Or a trick?

Mizutani Makoto did not pause, his ferocity remained undiminished, and a reminder came from his "mind's eye".

The mind's eye is the sixth sense that awakens in the midst of life and death battles after one has cultivated to a certain level. It can sense the enemy's breath and movements. If one cultivates to a high level, one can even vaguely perceive the enemy's intentions!

Just as he was about to cut through the air, his shoulder suddenly thrust backwards.

"boom!!"

A simple but explosive collision!

Kurosawa Ryojin was caught off guard during the sneak attack and was knocked back, hitting the wall with a dull thud!

Mizutani Makoto's movements were without any delay. He touched the ground with his toes, quickly spun his body, adjusted his posture, focused the blade, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a flash of lightning and shot out.

Judo.

The body is as flexible as a snake and can be retracted and extended freely.

The judo style learned from Kitajima En allowed Mizutani Makoto to control his power freely, and his body and sword moves were astonishingly agile. Unless he was in the air or on the bottom of the sea with no support, as long as he had both feet on the ground, there would be no problem of losing control of his power or losing his balance!

Three thunders suddenly sounded in the sky.

Three thunderbirds formed by thunder emerged from the void. As their wings flapped, flame-like lightning burst out continuously and lightning flashed everywhere.

Three thunderbirds swooped down together and headed straight for Kurosawa Ryohito!

At the same time, Mizutani Makoto stabbed out the Chidori Maru in his hand again, this time directly picking up the trickster who was unable to struggle. The sharp blade pierced through his shoulder, and the whole person was torn into two pieces by Chidori Maru. The thunderbird that rushed down afterwards gave him the final fatal injury.

Lightning exploded.

[Spirit Core of the Dead]

Description: A spiritual core of unparalleled power, its surface trembling slightly like a cursed mirror, as if breathing, but even this semblance of life is a lie. Within, lies and deception pervade the heart of a man who has spent his entire life deceiving others. He weaves his life with lies, using deception to gain wealth, trust, and power. In the only moment of trust he ever placed, he is tragically betrayed, ultimately dying in despair and rage.

【Comment: Those who deceive others will always be deceived.】

Dead spirits are the souls of dead people holding grudges. The monster "Rui" in Japanese legend is a representative of dead spirits.

Mizutani Makoto took the higher-level spirit core and put it into his pocket, but he was no longer interested in its story.

If you die, just die.

However, as a businessman, Kurosawa Ryohito did not drop any of his props when he died, which made him look incredibly poor.

Mizutani Makoto put away his sword and turned around. By the time he returned to the stairs of the school building, his hair had turned white.

Chidori escaped from the descent of the god.

As the master of the sword, she looked at Mizutani Makoto, who was like a candle in the wind, and couldn't help but be slightly shocked by his will to move forward.

"I still have two lives."

He said.

Chidori shook her head. As a sword, she would not stop the sword master's decision.

She showed up for just one thing.

"I'll help you explore the way."

There is very little spiritual power left in Mizutani Makoto's body, and he even gave the [Camellia Blood Cup] to Shuten to protect himself. Now he doesn't have many means to recover. All he wants is to use his life to the limit, and when the time comes, he will abandon this tired body and be resurrected in his prime.

On the second floor, on the long corridor, undead spirits transformed by obsession were staring at Mizutani Makoto.

Their eyes fell on Mizutani Makoto's badge.

and then?

Nothing happened.

They were still staring at Mizutani Makoto, and the leader, Kaneda Hayabusa and Hijikata Yui, were also staring at him, as if he was no different from other undead.

Mizutani Makoto didn't have time to waste with them.

Now, he has to find out...most likely under the cherry tree!

Before that, he had to go to one last place.

One floor below ground.

What exactly is hidden in the path that Furuya Ruriko has paved for him?

But just as Mizutani Makoto was walking down the stairs, his whole body suddenly stiffened, as if he had realized something, and he turned his head away.

...They followed.

The undead from other eras still remain on the second floor.

However, Kaneda Hayabusa, dressed in Taisho-era school uniforms, and Hijikata Yui, the former president and vice-president, followed.

"Now, I am the president."

Mizutani Makoto looked down at the badge in front of him, stepped on the charred roots, and stepped onto the last layer.

"Little donor..."

The broken and cracked white jade paperweight lay quietly under the school building.

The paperweight quietly emitted a faint Buddha light, and within the Buddha light was an illusory old monk who used his only remaining left arm to tremble and salute Mizutani Makoto.

"You are here."

At this moment, Mizutani Makoto was stunned.

——Geese crossing Luzhou.

Nine hundred years ago, an old monk killed the Nue beast and quelled a natural disaster.

Chapter 158 All Quiet on the Western Front The Soul and the Body Why is it good to kill my body?

"Wow~!"

When a scream was heard outside the house, Akiyuki Nishida keenly sensed that something was wrong.

Damn, what kind of dangerous place is this?

Feeling the restless atmosphere in the air, Akiyuki Nishida directly summoned his most trusted Shikigami, Heysoo Stone. Brother Rikishi stood in front of him like a city wall, cautiously exploring outside the yard.

"Don't be afraid yet."

Nishida Akiyuki comforted the client in the house, took a deep breath, and under the surprised gaze of Matsushita Kei next to him, he called the newbie and immediately walked out of the house.

Now, Akiyuki Nishida is sure that there is something seriously wrong with this Night Light City.

The lord of this place is not clean!

Considering the characteristics of Japan as a semi-capitalist, semi-feudal and semi-colonial country, the existence of overlords like the Celestial Dragons in remote areas is a commonplace topic.

The Onmyoji family is rooted in the local area. The Tokyo headquarters has very low management and supervision capabilities for the lords outside the region, so it only serves as a deterrent, but even the deterrent ability is very limited. If something big happens in the local area, the Tokyo headquarters basically can't do anything about it.

Every regulation is a bloody case... There are cases of family rebellion in local areas. Every time it happens, relevant regulations will be recorded in the headquarters, but whether they will be obeyed is another matter.

Wanting these aristocratic families to voluntarily give up power... the emperor is far away, so what's the point of wishing?

"There's a conspiracy..."

Nishida Akiyuki ran outside, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, hoping that it was just his illusion.
