Hikigaya Hachiman is Kuuga?

After receiving a positive answer, Hikigaya Hachiman turned around and left.

"Thanks, Hitotani-kun. I feel much more relaxed now that you asked me."

[I hope you won’t hate me by then.]

"Xiaoqi, what did you say to Xiaohu just now?"

"Nothing, just helping him relieve his tension."

"That's it."

Because they had been communicating through the power of light, Yuigahama Yui didn't pay much attention to what Hikigaya Hachiman said. Only Yukinoshita Yukino frowned and looked at him.

She believed that she had a certain understanding of the boy. He was not the type to help Tobe Xiang relieve his tension at a time like this, or rather...

"You were just trying to confirm something, right, Hikigaya-kun?"

Yukinoshita Yukino thought about the boy's thinking pattern when solving commissions in the past, and felt a little panicked.

Because she knew very well that the boy's solutions were all based on sacrificing himself, or sacrificing something or other, which is the so-called "give and take, only by giving can you gain" theory, so she was very sure that the boy must have intended to sacrifice himself to achieve his goal.

Therefore, the voice trembled slightly.

[Why can't you discuss this with us? Aren't we companions? Or do you think we are a burden, Hikigaya-kun?]

"I just went to confirm Hubu's awareness. Asking this question can distract his attention and make him more determined. When I confess my feelings later, I won't..."

"Xiao Qi, this is a lie to us, right?"

Even Yuigahama Yui understood that this behavior was obviously inconsistent with the boy's usual personality, so her expression became serious, and she stared at him closely like Yukinoshita Yukino, hoping to get a definite answer.

"Ebina is coming."

Faced with this attitude that clearly showed no intention of explaining things, Yukinoshita Yukino felt a nameless anger rising in her heart, "It's okay to come over, just tell us clearly what you are going to do first?"

[Why do you always have to bear everything alone? It’s okay if you rely on us a little, right?]

Hikigaya Hachiman turned around and looked at the tears that were beginning to gather in the girl's eyes, as well as the grievance and anger secreted from her brain. For some reason, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

"Xiao Qi, can you please tell us? Please!"

Turning around and looking at Yuigahama Yui's performance which was the same as Yukinoshita Yukino, the pain in my heart turned into tearing.

"Hey~ Xiaoqi..."

The hand that was pulling at the corner of his clothes gave him a feeling of heaviness that he could not break free of. He felt a blockage in his heart and an indescribable discomfort, a pain that was even more painful than the feeling of being torn apart.

[It's useless to say it, isn't it? The first priority is to complete the commission and prepare for the battle. If you don't quickly solve the test of Douzhen, how can you face the next Gurongi clan's Kikiru? Don't forget that Daguba is much stronger now than in the ancient times. Do you still have time to waste on such boring things?]

[Yeah, I don’t have time for such boring things!]

[So, throw away all restraints and become stronger! Isn't this what we are best at?]

[Also, if we don’t become stronger, Komachi will die. Have you forgotten that night?]

The "ultimate darkness" coincides with the rational monster, and the emotions are completely swallowed up in it.

Hikigaya Hachiman broke free from Yuigahama Yui's hand that was grabbing the corner of his clothes, stood up under the horrified gazes of Yuigahama Yui and Yukinoshita Yukino, and walked towards Tobe Sho and Ebina Hime who had already arrived.

"Xiaoqi?"

"Hikigaya-kun?"

Both girls saw the boy's eyes just now. If there was still some emotion left in them before, now it was like dead water, without any ripples caused by any external factors.

This is because everything put into it will be completely corroded the moment it comes into contact with it, so naturally there won’t be any ripples.

Hikigaya Hachiman didn't care about the complicated feelings of the two women at the moment. He walked directly to Tobe Sho, who was still speaking unclearly, and spoke under the frightened gaze of Ebina Hime.

"Ebina-san, I like you, please date me!"

[Yes, everything is for Komachi!]

After he finished speaking, as if to match the cold and emotionless voice in his words, a chilly wind suddenly blew past, blowing up the dark red maple leaves all over the sky. The lanterns on both sides of the road were flashing wildly as if they were out of contact.

The cold moonlight turned pale, and the green bamboos that were originally full of vitality were filtered with a layer of horror atmosphere. With the flickering lights, they looked like skinny ghost hands.

"Ye Shanjun, take them away quickly."

Yukinoshita Yukino was the first to notice the difference in the current situation, and quickly used the power of light to knock out the other three people present, except Hayato Hayama and Hime Ebina who knew the truth.

Then, together with Yuigahama Yui, he rushed to the side of Ebina Hina and looked at Hikigaya Hachiman in front of him with a sad expression.

"Hey~ It's Hikigaya-kun, right?"

The girl's voice trembled with hope.

"Guess what, girl~"

Hikigaya Hachiman, who had been lowering his head, raised his head, and the girls who saw his appearance at this moment all looked horrified.

"Hunter, please take them to a safe place."

The hunter responded to Yukinoshita Yukino's call and came running from a distance. Without saying much, he directly tied up Ebina Hina and Hayama Hayato who were slumped on the ground, and the unaware trio who had fainted on the ground with bandages, put them on his back, and flew away quickly.

"Who are you? What have you done to Xiaoqi?"

Yuigahama Yui stared at the boy in front of her with tears in her eyes. She felt that the unknown existence with the face of the person she liked and the malicious smile on his face were very dazzling.

"Eh? Did you reveal yourself? It seems like you really like him, Yui-chan~"

"Hikigaya Hachiman"'s expression is full of bad teasing, making people want to punch him.

Seeing his smile, Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui both looked terribly gloomy.

“Ah my? You guys are angry. But you’re really beautiful girls. Even your angry expression is so cute!”

The bad feeling of the "boy" in front of them was even more serious, and even made the two of them feel nauseous, and even forgot about the other's current strange state for a moment.

"Alas, has it finally come to this?"

Suddenly, a fourth person's voice was heard in the field.

"Oh my, isn't this Enkulu? Isn't this the great king of Agito from ancient times who contained all the power of light by himself?"

"It's really a rare visitor!"

Kawada Shinichi glanced at him calmly, "So this is the so-called ultimate darkness? It really makes me feel sick!"

"Well, it's up to you guys from now on. I can't take action this time."

He waved his hand lightly, and Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui saw a daze, only to see them reappear at the back mountain where they had trained in the past. It was obvious that Kawada Shinichi had transferred them all here using his spatial ability, and the reason was naturally because he was afraid that the upcoming battle would affect the surroundings.

"It seems that I have been underestimated. Let these two little girls deal with me. Aren't they afraid that I will kill them?"

After the ultimate dark voice fell, a terrifying and cold murderous intent pressed down like a mountain, making the two women feel their brains buzzing and their whole bodies tremble uncontrollably.

——————In the unknown space

"I hope you can really help Hachiman."

Douzhen looked at the ultimate darkness in the light curtain in front of him with a sad expression.

"This is your plan, and I hope you understand the consequences of failure."

"We are of course aware of the consequences. Although they are somewhat different from what we expected, they are still within our control."

A blurry figure appeared behind Him, and the sphere emitting inexplicable rhythm appeared in His right hand again, but this time it was no longer dark, but was rendered in pure white.

"Besides, isn't our plan just right for you? It will make you feel better."

Dou Zhen still did not turn around, his eyes still firmly fixed on the ultimate darkness in the light curtain. The rune representing His authority in his right hand kept flashing, silently showing his inner unrest.

"Well, you won't listen to anything I say now, so let's just wait and see what those two filthy Agito and Gills can do."

Seeing that Touma didn't reply, the blurry black shadow understood that the other party's whole mind was now on Hikigaya Hachiman, so he didn't plan to continue explaining and watched the development of the light curtain with Him.

------

"Hey~ Hayato-kun, do you think Yui and the others will be okay?"

Ebina Hina, who was taken by the hunter to an empty parking lot, regained some of her spirit on the way. However, when she recalled the scene she had just seen in her mind, she still felt a cold chill like a snake coiled around her heart, causing her voice to tremble.

"Hello, you are the Hunter, right? May I ask if Hikigaya-kun's condition just now is the sequelae of the previous battle with the King of Gurongi?"

Hayato Hayama did not answer Ebina Hina's question, but asked the hunter floating in the air next to him, with some petrified material on its surface.

"Don't worry, Hachiman won't give up so easily, and Yukino and Yui will wake him up."

The hunter whispered comforting words to Hayato Hayama in response to his worries.

"But, those bamboos just now were also affected by Hikigaya-kun, so they became like that, right? Is he really okay now?"

Ebina Hina recalled the scene where those hands really turned into ghost hands and spread towards her, and the chill in her heart became more obvious.

To be honest, she was not very worried about Hikigaya Hachiman. After all, he had fought all the way until now and proved how strong his willpower was in the battle with Daguba.

However, she felt that the other party's mental state was not good just now, and it was a question of when he would wake up.

Then, the situation of Yuigahama Yui and Yukinoshita Yukino who are standing in front of him is really worrying.

"Hina."

"Ok?"

Ebina Hime looked up blankly, and Hayama Hayato's hearty smile came into her eyes. The smile that emanated naturally, as dazzling yet gentle as the sun, unconsciously eased her inner fear a lot.

"Don't worry, we have to trust Yui and Yukinoshita, they will be fine."

"Besides, Hikigaya-kun will never hurt anyone. That's the only thing I can guarantee."

[The person who would rather be covered in wounds, or even risk death, to allow others to escape to a safe place before starting a fight.]

[The person who wastes energy in every battle, risks being killed in return, and throws the enemy into the air to kill them, just to avoid causing damage to the surrounding environment and affecting other people's daily lives, and is overly harsh on himself.]

[The person who, even though he was left with only a skeleton, threw his fist at an invincible enemy in order to protect others, without considering what would happen to himself.]

[The person who sacrifices himself for the sake of others even in daily life, and says that this is the best solution, and remains indifferent even when being criticized.]

[How could he possibly hurt others? This is the only thing I can be sure of no matter what!]

"You were just talking about how Hikigaya and the others are doing? Can you tell me the details, Hayama, Ebina?"

Suddenly, a third person's voice was heard in the parking lot.

Chapter 183: The girls who have no power to resist

The cold murderous intent was like an endless huge wave, constantly washing over the brains of Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui, and their consciousness began to slowly fade away.

The heavy pressure on them made their frail bodies tremble, and their legs began to slowly bend, and they were about to kneel down under the pressure.

[Can I really win? I can't move just by the killing intent. If I really fight, I will die, right?]

Yukinoshita Yukino is a person who refuses to admit defeat. Even though she has been defeated by her sister Yukinoshita Haruno again and again, although she chose to distance herself from her sister, she has never given up on defeating her sister.

But now, facing the existence that merely released murderous intent and took away the consciousness of the person she loved, which was called the ultimate darkness by Shinichi Kawada, she clearly realized for the first time that an existence of this level could not be defeated by her simply relying on so-called willpower. Otherwise, why couldn't she launch an attack now?

[Xiao Qi, have you always been fighting against opponents like this? Can someone like me defeat such a terrifying person? Can I really do it?]

Yuigahama Yui is a girl with a somewhat timid personality. She does not have the awareness like Yukinoshita Yukino who is able to carry out her own will, remain unmoved by others, and not mind being alone.

She is not as brave as Yumiko Miura in expressing her thoughts straightforwardly and without being afraid of anything.

She is not as smart as Hina Ebina, who could think of a way to crack the rumors about Hikigaya Hachiman and find a trick that would give her a high chance of breaking through the [Eye of the End] and going berserk.

She is just an ordinary girl who is both lucky and unlucky.

So, she was also afraid of the horrible unknown.

[Do you want to give up?]

When this thought appeared in the minds of the two girls, before the answer emerged in their brains, the skeleton standing in the snowstorm with a fist in the air appeared first.

[How can I give up? I don’t want to experience the powerlessness, anger, and pain I felt at that time again.]

[Even death is much better than that!]

The courage gained from that body was like a flame that would never go out, burning fiercely with the fear in the mind as nourishment, melting away the heavy pressure on the body and burning away the fear in the brain.

"I will definitely defeat you and wake up Hikigaya-kun!" ×2

Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui slowly straightened their backs, and the awareness in their dark eyes was as dazzling as the sun.

A brilliant pure white halo shone between their waists, and transformation rings and transcendence factors surrounded their waists. In an instant, the two of them transformed into the burning form of Agito and Gills.

"Oh? That's quite interesting. Let me see how much you are capable of."
