In this anime crossover, who stole my module?

"It's just to broaden your horizons."

"besides."

"In real life, what exists more often are those unseen anomalies."

“Those things may be lurking right under your noses, but you just don’t realize it.”

"Can't see?"

"You mean, there are some anomalies that ordinary people can't see?"

Upon hearing this, Yumiko Miura's heart sank, and she asked a question.

"Yes."

Natsume Ryo nodded slightly.

"Regarding this point."

"If you're interested, you can discuss it with Yotsuya Miko, who's a first-year student."

"I think she would be very willing to confide her troubles to girls her own age."

"Eh?"

"Does Yotsuya-san...do she know about these things too?"

"Yes, Jianzi knew earlier and more than you all."

Natsume Ryo nodded slightly.

"So, the reason why Yotsuya and Natsume have been getting closer lately is because of this?"

"almost."

Natsume Ryo nodded slightly.

"She's special; she has the ability to see ghosts and can see those things."

"Therefore, it is unavoidable to deal with those things in life."

"This is an extremely difficult thing for ordinary people."

"Living in that kind of environment for a long time is very stressful."

"So I helped her out."

"Some troubles have been cleared up."

"Judging from what Natsume-kun said... those things must look... really scary..."

Yuigahama Yui asked in a low voice.

"Yes, but most of them look completely different from the ghosts and monsters you are familiar with in movies and TV shows."

"Each one has its unique form and behavior pattern."

"Some of them are even beyond your imagination."

"Then...do those things also attack people?"

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

"The premise is that you can see them without being detected by those things."

"Generally, as long as you are not discovered, those things will naturally not notice you either."

"For example, there just happens to be a big guy right now."

"Want to see it?"

After finishing speaking, Natsume Ryo gazed into the distance.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yui and the others exchanged glances. In the end, curiosity overcame fear, and they all swallowed hard and nodded.

Even Yukino Yukinoshita only frowned slightly and did not object.

……

"In that case, let's get ready."

After finishing speaking, Natsume Ryo extended his right hand, his mind subtly shifting.

In the numerous command list of the 【Urban Ghost Stories Module】, the corresponding option was quickly found.

— Grant temporary clairvoyance to a designated target group.

【/effecta【distance=……10,tag=! Natsume Ryo=600]

The command was constructed in Natsume Ryo's mind and confirmed for execution.

He casually waved his hand lightly in the direction of the girls, as if brushing away a speck of dust that wasn't even there.

Those invisible instructions instantly merged into the rules of reality.

next second.

Yui Yuigahama felt as if a faint light had flashed by.

Then, it seemed as if something entered her eyes.

However, Yui Yuigahama blinked.

The world seems to be the same world.

Blue sky, white clouds.

Nothing has changed.

“Natsume-kun, you…”

Yui Yuigahama was just about to ask Ryo Natsume what he had done.

suddenly!

"Then, what is that?!"

Yumiko Miura let out a short gasp, her finger trembling as she pointed to the distant sky.

next second.

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed.

Miura Yumiko and Ebina Hina gasped almost simultaneously, their faces draining of color.

Yukino's pupils contracted.

Rikka Takanashi was so stunned that she stood there speechless.

Because they saw it.

On the distant horizon, a colossal object, beyond description, is slowly moving.

Chapter 94 The Three Angels of Industry

Beneath the sky was a colossal object, its height exceeding one hundred meters.

Constructed entirely of rough concrete, the surface of which has been etched with mottled weathering marks by the passage of time, it resembles an ancient statue imbued with a strange life, walking among humans.

A colossal structure, towering even taller than the city's tallest skyscrapers, moves slowly through the concrete jungle.

It makes those buildings that usually look magnificent appear disproportionately small in comparison, like building blocks in a child's hand.

What's even more unsettling is that above its indistinct, faceless head, a huge, twisted ring, also made of concrete, is suspended, emitting a faint, ominous, and chilling white light.

That's the halo of an "angel".

But this halo is strangely unstable.

At the edges, the material was constantly cracking and breaking apart at a visible rate, turning into gray dust that fell in clumps, like decaying ashes.

In the next instant, the shattered dust mysteriously reformed and reassembled.

The cycle repeats itself endlessly, as if it will never stop.

It made no sound, moving silently among the buildings of the bustling city.

But it brought a sense of oppression that was more suffocating than any roar.

"..."

The rooftop was deathly silent.

You can hear a pin drop.

Yui Yuigahama, Yumiko Miura, Hina Ebina, Yukino Yukinoshita, and even Rikka Takanashi.

Their minds were completely blank at that moment.

All reasoning ability was completely destroyed by the unimaginable horror before my eyes.

Their mouths opened unconsciously, their eyes widened, and their pupils shrank to the smallest pinpoints due to the extreme emotional fluctuations. Their entire bodies were stiff as stone sculptures, unable to move an inch, as if they had even forgotten to breathe.

Their gazes were fixed on the enormous concrete angel walking through the city, unable to look away.

……

at the same time,

Ryo Natsume was also gazing at the giant concrete angel.

Speaking of which...

When Natsume Ryo first saw this giant concrete angel.

It was this morning, at the train station where I said goodbye to Azusa Konno on my way to school.

At that time.

This colossal concrete angel is still just a blurry outline on the distant horizon, like a mirage, appearing and disappearing indistinctly.

Natsume Ryo didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

After all, within his vast knowledge system of the [Urban Ghost Stories Module], there are records of "beings" of similar enormous size and bizarre shape.

However, most of them belong to the realm of legend, or are "background" level existences that rarely appear in the real world.

but.

As the outline of this giant concrete angel became clearer.

They've even started moving around the city.

Natsume Ryo finally began to wonder about the true identity of this giant concrete angel.

He accessed the entries for "giant unknown phenomena" in the "Urban Ghost Stories" module, compared and analyzed them, and finally found the origin of this giant concrete angel.

……

"The height of the concrete structure is estimated to be over 400 meters."

"The movement may seem slow, but each step is extremely large."

"Is that a ring above your head?"

"But it is in disintegration and reshaping."

"This does not conform to any known laws of physics..."

"Moreover, such an object, which is entirely composed of concrete, cannot move autonomously."

"what is it?"

Yukinoshita's reason frantically tried to find a reasonable explanation, and finally asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Natsume Ryo.

Natsume Ryo turned his head, glanced at Yukino Yukinoshita, and then his gaze swept over the other pale-faced girls.

"Recorded by the ancients."
