My fiancée Yukino

The source lies in a narrow alley between dark buildings.

The eerily quiet environment, along with the faint smell of blood masked by the trash can, made Luo Bai's expression turn serious.

Now that we've come this far, there's no way we can back out.

Luo Bai took a step and went inside.

After passing two trash cans, Luo Bai heard incessant tearing and chewing sounds coming from deep within.

Then, by the moonlight, he saw a figure lying on the ground, burying its head in a corpse with a severed arm, and gnawing on it.

Upon hearing footsteps, the creature that was eating stopped and turned its head.

"people?"

Licking the blood from the corner of its mouth, the unidentified creature looked at Luo Bai with an excited expression. "My luck is really good. Another guy has delivered himself to my doorstep."

Luo Bai, on the other hand, had a very bad feeling at this moment. It was obvious that this guy was eating people!

This was the first time Luo Bai had ever encountered something like this in his life, and he instantly felt nauseous.

Looking at this guy again, his clothes didn't look like those of a modern person, and his strong blue muscles and human appearance reminded Luo Bai of a species.

Are they demons from Demon Slayer?

Based on clothing, physical characteristics, and behavior, this identity is the most fitting.

"A ghost, right?"

Upon hearing Luo Bai's words, the unknown ghost slowly stood up, looked at him, and said, "You recognized me? How interesting. But it doesn't matter, you're going to become my food soon anyway. Die!"

Then they rushed up instantly.

Seeing a ghost for the first time was quite a shock for Luo Bai, but that didn't mean he wouldn't take action.

He raised his right hand, unleashing his telekinetic power, which instantly stopped the ghost that was still a meter away from him.

Upon discovering that he could neither move forward nor even move at all, the ghost looked at Luo Bai in shock: "What happened? Did you do this?"

"I'll say the same thing to you. You're going to die soon anyway, so there's no need for you to know."

The open right hand slowly clenched into a fist, and the air around the ghost began to be compressed inward, causing the ghost's limbs to make a constant creaking sound as if it was under unbearable pressure.

"You've got some skill!" Feeling the pressure on its body, the ghost glared fiercely at Luo Bai and said, "Don't think you can kill me like this, I'm immortal!"

"Really? Then give it a try."

With a push of his right hand, Luo Bai slammed the ghost into the wall behind him.

"cough!"

A stream of blood spurted from the ghost's mouth, but before he could stand up, a scorching heat enveloped him.

Flames suddenly appeared and enveloped the ghost.

"Fire? Where did this fire come from?! Aaaaaaah!!!"

"You're so noisy! It's not good to disturb other people's rest."

Luo Bai frowned, knowing that his current actions might attract attention. He could only speed up his movements, making the flames burn even more intensely, and at the same time use his telekinesis to choke the ghost's throat, preventing it from making a sound.

"Cough! Ugh!!!"

As the ghost felt its body burning away bit by bit, it finally began to panic. However, the power of telekinesis was too great, even greater than the ghost itself. No matter how much it struggled, it still couldn't break free.

Upon noticing the demon's struggle, Luo Bai said coldly, "Trying to escape? But I've had this ability for several years now. With all that growth, a nobody like you, who doesn't even have a name and isn't even a Lower Moon, how could you possibly break free in a head-on confrontation? As a man-eating demon, please just disappear. That would be the best outcome for those you've killed."

The next second, the blazing red flames began to turn orange-red and then gold, and in just a few seconds, they burned the ghost, which still had most of its body, to ashes.

If everything is burned, then there's no chance of revival.

With a wave of his hand, the flames dissipated, and only after confirming that not a speck of ash remained on the ground did Luo Bai finally relax.

Looking at the young man whose abdomen had been disemboweled, Luo Bai said with guilt in his eyes, "I'm sorry, if I had discovered it sooner, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way."

After erasing all traces of himself, Luo Bai used teleportation to return to his apartment.

Less than a minute after he left, a series of footsteps were heard. Two patrolling police officers arrived after receiving a call from a member of the public and finally found the deceased. They immediately reported the incident.

Back home, Luo Bai sat on the sofa in a daze for a while before finally pulling himself together, taking a shower, and then lying down in his bedroom.

What happened tonight has indeed had a significant impact on him.

"I wonder if that demon has any of its kind. If it does, that would be really bad. I'll check the area more often over the next few days. I can handle it myself, but Yukino is still here. I can't let her be in any danger."

Talking to himself, Luo Bai closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.

But half an hour later, he opened his eyes again and sat up.

"I can't sleep at all. Every time I close my eyes, all I see are those images from before."

Scratching his head, Luo Bai had no choice but to sit down at the computer desk, turn on the computer, and start a game of Civilization.

"Distract yourself."

A game of Civilization, round after round, can last all night long.

In the morning, when Yukino got dressed and came next door with her schoolbag, she saw Luo Bai yawning and making breakfast in the kitchen.

Hearing footsteps, Luo Bai turned around, sporting dark circles under her eyes, and said, "Good morning! Breakfast will be ready in two more minutes. Here's a bento box, take it."

Taking the lunchbox, Yukino looked at Luo Bai and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

His tone was clearly concerned.

Shaking his head, Luo Bai smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's nothing. I just had insomnia last night and didn't sleep much. When you get to school later, could you ask Hiratsuka-sensei for half a day off for me? I'll rest for a bit in the morning before going to school."

After observing Luo Bai's expression, Yukino finally agreed.

Volume 1: Chapter 17 Kobayashi's Boss, a True Scourge (1/2)

Arriving at school alone, Yukino first went to the classroom to put down her schoolbag, and then went to the office to find Hiratsuka Shizuka.

Upon seeing Yukino, Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was preparing lesson plans, smiled and said, "Oh, it's Yukino. Is there something you need so early?"

Yukino nodded: "Hiratsuka-sensei, I'm here to ask for half a day off for Luo Bai. He wasn't feeling well this morning and needs to rest at home. He'll come to school at noon."

"Hmm? Are you feeling unwell?"

Hearing this, Hiratsuka Shizuka paused for a moment, then looked at Yukino thoughtfully, "Yukinoshita, shouldn't you young people be a little more restrained?"

Although Yukino didn't know much about this, she wasn't completely clueless either, and she immediately understood what Hiratsuka Shizuka meant.

Although she felt shy inside, she didn't show it. Instead, she calmly said, "Putting aside whether it's what you think, teacher, can I interpret it as you being jealous when you talk to your students about these things? Well, that's understandable, since I'm still single."

"..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka felt her blood pressure rising, but she couldn't do anything to this girl. She couldn't very well punch her like she would a boy, could she?

Gritting her teeth, Hiratsuka Shizuka said, "Okay, I understand. You need half a day off, right? I agree. Anyway, that kid's grades are pretty good, so half a day off isn't a problem. But I need to make sure he comes to school in the afternoon, is that alright?"

Yukino nodded: "He will come."

"Alright, I got it. Yukino, you should go back to the classroom too, it's almost time for class."

"Then I'll head back, Hiratsuka-sensei."

After leaving the office, Yukino's previously calm face turned rosy.

What Hiratsuka Shizuka said just now was indeed a bit too much for a young woman like her, after all, she and Luo Bai hadn't even kissed yet.

However, Yukino herself probably didn't realize that she had already started to naturally consider things like kissing.

As for Luo Bai, after having breakfast, he slept for two hours before waking up to his alarm clock.

Although he stayed up all night, his mental and physical recovery speed is very fast after gaining superpowers, and two hours is enough for him to catch up on sleep.

After getting up and washing up, Luo Bai changed into her school uniform, grabbed her schoolbag, and went out.

Of course, we didn't go straight to school, but first went to the place where we met the turtle last night.

This rather secluded corner has been cordoned off since the body was discovered last night.

The gruesome state of the body shocked the officers who discovered it and the police who arrived later.

This was clearly not an ordinary murder case. There were obvious signs of gnawing on the body. Forensic examination revealed that these marks were not made by any large or small carnivorous animal, but rather resembled human teeth marks.

This answer is naturally chilling.

When Luo Bai arrived, there were still scattered people around, standing and discussing.

"I heard someone died here last night!"

"That's right, that's right. My uncle's niece's boyfriend worked at the police station, and I heard he died a horrible death!"

"Hey! Has the murderer been caught yet?"

"It seems like there's no future yet."

"Let's hurry up and leave, it's too scary!"

Hearing the hushed discussions around him, Luo Bai didn't linger and prepared to leave.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a middle-aged man in a suit with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a big smile.

"Hello, young man, can we talk?"

Luo Bai raised an eyebrow, keenly noticing that something was off about this man; he didn't seem to be an ordinary person.

"you are?"

The man smiled and said, "I just wanted to thank you for what you did yesterday, but it's not appropriate to say it here. Let's go somewhere else."

He then turned and walked toward a coffee shop.

Luo Bai thought for a moment, then took a step and followed.

The two sat down in the coffee shop. After ordering two coffees, the man looked at Luo Bai and said, "Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Makoto Kakuzu, the president of Hell Patrol Trading Company."

Hell Patrol Trading... that's quite a unique company name.

"It can't be that simple, can it?"

Makoto Mokuzu smiled and nodded: "That's true. I also have another identity: the guardian of this region, a great mage. Alright, that concludes my self-introduction. And what about you, young man?"

The great mage... No wonder, I didn't even notice him behind me.

Luo Bai picked up his cup, took a sip of coffee, and said, "Luo Bai, a Chinese, is a transfer student in the second year of Zongwu High School, and a superpowered individual."

"Yes, it matches the information I already have."

Goodness, they already knew. Those smiling young men are definitely not easy to deal with.

Seeing Luo Bai's expression, Zhen Tu Hua Jin said nonchalantly, "Please forgive me, gathering basic information is necessary, after all, I need to protect the peace of this area. It's just a pity that I was dealing with another case happening at the same time yesterday, so I arrived a little late. Fortunately, Luo Bai's appearance prevented the ghost from escaping, which can be considered a timely mitigation of the damage."

"Another case?" Luo Bai narrowed his eyes. "Another being like that ghost?"

“That’s right, there are still some.” Makoto nods. “Like the ghost you dealt with last night, Luo Bai-kun, we’ve dealt with six in the past two months, all perfectly before, but unfortunately we still couldn’t save the victim’s life this time. As compensation, we can only let him be reborn into a good family. I can see you have many questions, so please ask, and I will answer them one by one.”

After pondering for a while with his head down, Luo Bai asked his question.

"Like the ghost from last night, will similar things continue to happen? Is there any way to prevent them?"

“I also want to take precautions, but this is a global issue, and even the gods can't interfere much. This is already the result of taking precautions.”

Zhen Tu Huojin said with some regret, "In the past, the wars between gods, dragons and other races between different worlds have never stopped, causing problems to arise in each world to varying degrees. We are relatively better off here, with only occasional creatures wandering in. Don't worry, they are not very strong. With your strength, Luo Baijun, you can handle them completely."

Gods, dragons! It really is Kobayashi's dragon maid. She must also be a character in the story. She seems to be Kobayashi's boss.

If it's him, then I can feel a little more at ease.

Volume 1: Chapter 18 A Little Interlude During Lunch Break (2/2)

After learning some more information, including...

After reviewing the information about Thor that he had already seen, Luo Bai and Zhen Tu Huojin exchanged contact information and left the cafe.

Watching Luo Bai walk away through the window, Zhen Tu Huojin smiled and said, "An unexpected person, how interesting. With another superpowered individual and the daughter of the End Emperor, this area should be safe for the next few years. I can take it easy a little longer. Now, let's go see that arrogant father."

Although meeting with Masato Mokuzu helped Luo Bai understand the truth of this world, that was all.

Just as Makoto said, the situation like last night, where a ghost from another world drifted into this world, is extremely rare.
