Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

The corners of his mouth were turned up to the limit of what a human could achieve.

That was really dangerous; I almost thought my first mission was going to fail.

'This has nothing to do with me!!'

Perhaps because the man's attention was completely focused on Rōjin and Asukai Kiki, Kasumigaoka Utaha's mind became much clearer.

Although she couldn't see what was behind her, she could sense that the man was not far behind her.

If she could, Kasumigaoka Utaha would love to grab this man by the neck and tell him that she knew nothing!

They were clearly not looking at them!

Are your eyes just for decoration?!

Someone as mentally challenged as you shouldn't try to be a villain, okay?!

Please, look at that person behind you who's clearly not being controlled!

Unfortunately, the man couldn't hear it.

At this point, he had already used Kasumigaoka Utaha as his shield and get-out-of-jail-free card.

"......"

Luo Zhen's previously composed expression at the doorway became subtle once again.

In some ways, the man's thinking wasn't wrong.

However, some minor misunderstandings arose in a very subtle way.

It's like an air conditioner repairman who strips naked and hangs on the exterior wall to fix the air conditioner being blocked at the window by the homeowner who has been sent home; or it's like a "good student" who steals earphones but gets accepted into a graduate program.

I have a feeling that something is really wrong.

For a moment, Luo Zhen didn't know how to explain.

Looking at Luo Zhen's expression, the man became even more certain of his thoughts.

So-called righteous characters are nothing more than this.

Once you find the weakness, it's very easy to deal with.

Just as he was about to say something, the man suddenly noticed that Luo Zhen, who was standing at the door, was making a new move.

He casually took off his coat and handed it to Asukai Kiki, then slowly approached the stairs.

This is a "trial."

The moment the word "trial" was uttered, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became strange.

For some reason, the man seemed to see a pink, moldy octopus-headed man approaching him, who was taking off his sexy sweater as he spoke.

Rubbing his eyes, he saw that the person in the hall was still the same young man; there was no longer any pink, moldy octopus-headed man.

Illusion?

"I believe this is a 'trial' to overcome the past."

In the hall, Luo Zhen continued to approach the man with unhurried steps, creating an extremely strong sense of pressure.

Without stopping, he pressed a Core Coin into the drive.

The image of Ghost can be barely seen through the transparent part of the groove.

At Luo Zhen's feet, two great white sharks with their dorsal fins exposed swam around him, leaving ripples in their wake.

On the wall, jagged cracks appeared, and some pebbles fell into the blood, splashing up waves before quickly disappearing.

Of course, this is just an illusion.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

He subconsciously took a step back, and the confident image he had cultivated instantly crumbled.

Ultimately, it's perfectly normal to feel fear when facing someone stronger than yourself.

Humans can only laugh freely when they see lions inside a zoo enclosure.

When humans encounter lions on the grasslands, all they can do is pray that the lions are full and have no interest in them.

"Only by overcoming those naive past experiences can a person grow."

As he spoke, Luo Zhen inserted the other two Core Medals into the Driver.

Gently removing the scanning ring hanging from his waist, Luo Zhen said softly:

"You're like that too, aren't you?"

"Stop talking nonsense! You're not allowed to step onto the stairs. I'm upstairs, so you stay down here!"

The man with a distorted face growled and reached out to grab Kasumigaoka Utaha in front of him.

If we can catch this woman, there's still room for negotiation.

The man believed that as long as he had this woman in his grasp, Luo Zhen would be hesitant to harm him.

In reality, it is unknown what happened.

"Ah ...

Kasumigaoka Utaha screamed inwardly, while simultaneously harboring some resentment towards Rōzō.

Why did you have to provoke this guy who clearly looks abnormal?!

Many hostages kidnapped by bank robbers, after being rescued, harbor the most resentment not towards the robbers who nearly killed them, but towards the people negotiating outside.

In their view, those people provoked the robbers, which led to the deaths.

Stockholm syndrome is roughly like this.

Right now, Kasumigaoka Utaha's greatest wish is not to be rescued, but for Ryouma to stop provoking this madman.

"Ghost-Wizard-Hibiki"

The scanning ring swept across the driver at the waist.

A light shone forth, and armored warriors burst forth from it.

The surrounding walls shattered instantly, revealing a view that resembled a starry sky.

The large, rough hand pressed down on Kasumigaoka Utaha's face just before the man touched her neck.

With a single step, Luo Zhen used the momentum to forcefully slam the man against the wall behind him.

Crimson blood spurted out and slowly dripped down the wall.

The hood on his head slowly slipped down, revealing a mask beneath that looked like a demon.

Behind them, the people being manipulated collapsed instantly.

Including that scumbag witch.

The only difference is that when others fall, they crash to the ground with a thud, but this guy braced himself with his hand as he fell.

As she fell to the ground, Kasumigaoka Utaha thought that she was finally free.

Chapter 447 Kasumigaoka Utaha is in a panic

The instant the group fell to the ground, Asukai Kiki instantly pulled them into the mental world she had constructed.

"Um......"

Blinking blankly, Hayasaka Ai weakly propped herself up from the floor of the room.

The feeling of weakness emanating from her body made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

"here it is?"

Looking up, what comes into view is not the ceiling of the room, but a wide-open field of vision.

Everywhere you look, there is a shattered world.

Raise your right hand, and a gap appears between your wrist and forearm.

There was no blood flowing from the cross-section of the arm; instead, it appeared a deep blue color, like a scene often seen in science fiction movies.

Hayasaka Ai slapped her head hard, trying to clear her mind, and her previous memories began to surface.

Uncontrolled bodies, bodyguard corpses scattered on the floor, strange rituals, a hall filled with people.

As the sea of ​​blood surged in, the plant roots grew unchecked.

Warriors clad in strange armor burst forth from the light.

The airflow during the charge ruffled the edge of the hood, revealing a glimpse of the mask hidden beneath.

What happened next?

Every day, Hayasaka Ai frowned, somewhat unable to understand the current situation.

He instinctively reached for the dagger at his waist, but unexpectedly found nothing.

At that moment, Hayasaka Aisa noticed that she was not wearing her own clothes, but a light brown trench coat that resembled a medieval English style.

The long trench coat hem reached all the way down to her knees, yet surprisingly, it didn't hinder her movement.

The white shirt inside the trench coat looked a little wrinkled because he had been lying on the ground, but the collar was still standing up high, and it seemed that there was a collar stay inside.

The tie on his chest was slightly crooked, as if he had hurriedly put it on without checking it carefully before leaving the house.

A detective hat of the same style was worn at an angle on his head.

The fair, tender thighs subtly revealed signs of exercise, with the exposed parts possessing a warm, translucent quality reminiscent of white jade.

In addition, Hayasaka Ai inherited her delicate appearance from her parents, so she doesn't look like a maid.

Instead, he resembles the great British detective who often appears in fairy tales.

She possesses both intelligence and beauty, and can solve a major case that no one else could crack with just a few words.

"What the hell happened?"

She shook her hand uncomfortably, her blue eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

In an instant, a multitude of scenarios flashed through her mind.

For example, being kidnapped by the Shinomiya family's enemies, getting involved in some mad scientist's crazy experiments, getting involved in some supernatural forces, and so on.

The last one is the most likely at present, otherwise the current situation cannot be explained.

This applies to both the shattered world before us and the unmistakable memories in our minds.

Feeling a little uncomfortable, Hayasaka Ai tugged at her lower back and awkwardly began to explore this strange world.

In another 'world', Kasumigaoka Utaha also encountered a similar situation.

However, she was not in a broken world, but on a train that was in an endless loop.

"What the hell is going on?"

Feeling somewhat tired, Kasumigaoka Utaha sat down and kept tugging at her collar to cool herself down.

When she woke up, she was already on this train.

Her clothes have changed from casual wear to her current British style, but her signature black stockings remain unchanged.

Leaning casually against the train seat, Kasumigaoka Utaha no longer cared about her image.

Whatever happens, all she wants now is to rest.

"Ugh, I'm such an idiot."

At first, they had no idea that they were on a train that was in an endless loop, so they kept exploring and running forward.

It wasn't until I collapsed from exhaustion that I belatedly realized that the train seemed to be traveling on a circular track.

There is no beginning and no end.

Her legs, encased in black stockings, were shapely and long, casually draped over the seat opposite her.

With her head pressed against the glass, Kasumigaoka Utaha gazed at the scenery outside the window with slightly tired eyes.

Visibility was already low in the pitch-black night, and every now and then we would drive into a deep tunnel where visibility was almost completely black.

In this situation, Kasumigaoka Utaha easily came up with some terrifying stories.
