Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

On the other hand, if she ignored that man and forcibly returned to the Shadow Kingdom, Tara had a feeling that the guy would come with her.

In the end, all that awaits me is death.

He needs time, not only to sink back into the Shadow Kingdom, but also to erase his whereabouts.

What should I do?

His cloudy eyes darted back and forth, trying to find a way out.

But no matter how you look at it, there doesn't seem to be a good solution.

Am I, Tara, going to die here today?

For a moment, Tara was filled with resentment.

If I had regained my body and was in full strength, I wouldn't feel so frustrated even if I couldn't win.

He was, after all, the head of the Shadow Kingdom, who once ruled the entire country of Japan.

It almost allowed darkness to replace the existence of light.

But now they are being chased like stray dogs.

If that man hadn't tried to capture me alive, I probably wouldn't have even had a chance to escape...

"correct!"

A flash of inspiration seemed to strike her mind, and Tara couldn't help but show an excited expression on her face.

I figured it out!

That man's goal was to capture me alive, just like the other humans before him.

In other words, it means to contain oneself and the ghost mask rather than to destroy these selves.

And now there are two ghostly masks behind him.

It's a bit of a pity, since it was so hard to find.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

After flashing and disappearing once more, Tara circled back to the vicinity of Tokyo, her eyes scanning back and forth, trying to find a suitable target to buy herself some time.

Although I feel somewhat sorry for those loyal subordinates.

But I think they'll understand.

After all, it is a subordinate's duty to die for their master.

Tara thought this with a clear conscience.

We need to hurry.

Feeling the approaching presence behind her, Tara calmed her anxiety.

At this rate, he might be pinned to the ground before even entering the city.

But it's much better than before, when I was running around like a headless fly.

"found it!"

When Tara teleported into a grove of trees once again, her eyes lit up with excitement.

Look what he found!

A human being!

A human who somehow ended up in this place!

that is really good!

Although it's unclear why this bespectacled, seemingly颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of listlessness, apathy, or a sense of dejection) human would appear in this secluded grove.

But there's no time to worry about that now.

The next moment, Tara appeared in front of the human.

A long, thin mask, entirely purple with upward-pointing demonic horns, flew out.

With a loud slap, it landed on the face of the bespectacled man in front of it.

At the same time, Tara also channeled a wisp of black energy into the human to help the Ghost Mask better integrate with it.

The above actions are sent within less than one second.

Before the bespectacled man could react and scream, Tara had already vanished.

If it weren't for the curled-up leaves on the ground, it would seem as if Tara had never existed.

The next moment, Luo Zhen appeared in the grove.

Looking at the person in front of me, whose face was covered by a ghostly mask and who was bent over, screaming in pain.

A look of utter annoyance slowly crept onto Luo Zhen's face.

"It's you again, Aki Tomoya?"

Tomoya Aki is still an unlucky guy today.

Chapter 1057 Aki Tomoya Hates Tokyo

It has been more than a month since I graduated from Zongwu High School.

After graduating, Aki Tomoya packed his bags and came to Tokyo from Chiba.

Because he wanted to realize his dream.

He felt that he couldn't realize his dream of creating the best visual novel in Chiba.

Admittedly, these emerging industries are more prevalent in first-tier cities. In smaller cities, there are hardly any opportunities or information about these emerging industries.

Tokyo, as Japan's most prosperous city, is often mistakenly considered to be the capital of Japan.

This even led to the saying that 'everything except Tokyo is rural.'

Correspondingly, the gaming, comics, and anime industries are booming in Tokyo.

So, Aki Tomoya is here too.

With their own dreams and aspirations.

He wanted to display his revenge in this bustling city.

But that was already a previous idea.

Now...

"I hate Tokyo."

Aki Tomoya also said the same thing.

He hated the people of Tokyo, who always seemed aloof and looked down on him, a man from the 'countryside'.

Even some restaurant waiters looked at him with an air of superiority.

He hated the housing prices in Tokyo. For the same price, he could rent a decent apartment in Chiba, but in Tokyo he could only barely find a tiny room.

In terms of lifestyle, he is clearly inferior to her.

He hated the atmosphere in Tokyo, which was full of pressure and suffocation.

I originally planned to look for a job while continuing to complete my game.

I've already selected a few companies that I like.

But after arriving, I found that the competition was really fierce.

It's a small position that only hires one person, but dozens of people are competing for it.

Among the graduates of their respective majors at various universities, Tomoya Aki, a high school graduate, was completely unremarkable.

No, it should be said that it's conspicuous in the opposite direction.

Everyone else is doing great, so why are you the only one lagging behind?

But this is not what Aki Tomoya wanted.

He felt that he had the ability and ideas to realize them, and all he needed was some resources and a platform to showcase himself.

But nobody cares.

He couldn't even pass the most basic threshold and had no chance to show himself.

Aki Tomoya hates Tokyo.

I hate the people here, I hate this life, I hate the job here, I hate everything here.

He hates Tokyo.

In the past, Aki Tomoya would usually stay up late, but not too late; he would go to sleep when he felt sleepy.

But now Aki Tomoya's late nights are getting worse.

Because he didn't want to sleep, and he didn't want to face tomorrow.

The moment I opened my eyes, I felt, "Ugh, this is so painful, it's another new day."

And then there are all sorts of annoying things to deal with.

Honestly, Aki Tomoya feels that he has grown more during this period than he has in the past ten years.

No one will go along with him anymore.

Since no teacher came to clean up his messes, his willful behavior resulted in him being kicked out of the school.

If you want to come for an interview, you have to follow our rules, even though we know those rules are unreasonable.

Either comply, or get out.

Every night when I'm looking for a place to eat, I always hear some office workers complaining.

My wife has recently started putting on makeup and dressing up, and she's always on her phone as if she's chatting with someone.

It was something that should have made people angry, but there wasn't a trace of anger on his numb face.

Will I be like that in the future?

Aki Tomo didn't know either.

At first, Aki Tomoya was able to maintain his spirit, but it has gradually been worn down.

Only at this moment did he realize that Hiratsuka Shizuka's earnest advice to him before was correct.

Now, it seems a bit late.

I really want to go back.

Aki Tomoya was squatting alone in a grove of trees in the suburbs, looking utterly dejected.

It's said that this forest has been haunted lately, by something called Himeko who drags people into the water.

Aki Tomoya didn't hear it very clearly at the time.

I just came here to relax and clear my head.

Perhaps it would be a good thing if we were really killed?

With that in mind, Aki Tomoya came over alone.

Anyway, he doesn't have a job, so even if he really dies, no one will care about him.

This seems like a good idea?

Thinking this, Aki Tomoya stayed alone in the grove for a long time.

I didn't feel any spiritual purification or any improvement in my mood.

I'm still in a very bad mood.

"It's about time to head back..."

With a sigh, Aki Tomoya decided it was time for him to go back.

As soon as he stood up, a huge face appeared in front of him.

Before he could react, a mask was stuck on his face.

A chilling current surged from the mask and quickly invaded his entire body.
