As a traitor, I should raise the banner of rebellion

But what Akinomiya Yui expected did not happen.

"This time I want to ask something about myself." Although he could hear the unkindness from Akinomiya Yui, Yuanhui's tone was not affected at all.

"I wonder how many questions I can ask you for 100 million yen?"

"...That depends on what specific questions you want to ask." Seeing that Yuanhui had no intention of getting something for free, Akinomiya Yui's tone slowed down a little, "Different questions naturally have different prices for getting answers."

"But for Rin's sake, I'll give you a friendly price."

"Well, thank you, Miss Akinomiya." Yuan Hui's tone was slightly smiling, but then he immediately became serious:

"Ms. Qiu Zhigong, can you tell me which spirit is the most suitable for me right now?"

Is this really the problem?

Akinomiya Yui sighed inwardly, and then answered very straightforwardly -

"No."

"...Huh?" Yuan Hui on the other end of the phone was visibly stunned, "Ms. Akinomiya, can't you predict the future?"

"Yes, I can predict the future, but has anyone ever told you that predicting the future is equivalent to knowing everything?" Akinomiya Yui said unceremoniously, "If you really want to find an omniscient god, then I can only suggest that you look for God."

"My ability is more like [foresight] than foresight."

Genki is the person that Kujo Rin wants to get close to, and he is quite generous, so Akinomiya Yui is naturally willing to talk to him more so that he will not ask questions that she cannot answer, which will make both of them embarrassed.

"I don't quite understand how other predictors or fortune tellers do it, but for me, when I want to predict something, some related images will appear in front of my eyes, and there is no sound."

"When Rin asked about your whereabouts before, I saw 'your figure standing on the platform' and 'the time on the clock next to you', so I was able to accurately tell Rin these things and let her 'coincidentally' meet you at that time."

Even without foreseeing it, Akinomiya Yui had actually expected that Kujo Rin would definitely be seen through by Genki.

So he brought up this past event without any scruples and openly.

"Not only that, the broader the question, the blurrier the picture I see. It's a waste of effort even if I activate my ability."

"The question you just asked is a typical one of this kind."

"I can't even see the blurry picture, so it's impossible for me to answer it."

"The correct way to ask a question is, after you have obtained accurate information about a certain anomaly, you should then ask me whether this anomaly is suitable for feeding your spirit, whether it can make your spirit stronger, and change its rules in a more positive direction."

This is actually Akinomiya Yui's most common job.

For a soul binder, binding the monster within his soul is only the first step.

It is also the simplest step.

Next, how to cultivate one's own spirit, make it stronger and make the rules more perfect, this is the most difficult process.

This is not just about catching a monster and letting your spirit devour it, but it depends on the compatibility of the rules between them.

The rules of [Lika Doll] and [Good Neighborliness] are very incompatible. If [Lika Doll] swallows [Good Neighborliness], there is a great probability that it will not be able to inherit the rules of [Good Neighborliness] at all, and ultimately all efforts will be in vain.

As for [Know-It-All Go-kun], who has a good compatibility with it, [Lika Doll] almost completely inherited the opponent's abilities. Not only did its strength increase, but it also gained the skill [Lika Knows Everything].

In fact, nothing happening after swallowing the monster is still a relatively good result.

Worse case scenarios may even lead to conflicts between the rules, which may ultimately cause serious damage to one's spiritual energy or even death.

Akinomiya Yui knew that the spirit bound by Genki was the "Ghost Phone of Rika Doll", so during the conversation, she naturally used the feminine name "she (hero)".

"You haven't been on a mission yet, have you?" Although it was a question, Akinomiya Yui obviously already knew the answer.

This is what she 'saw' as well.

"So, you don't have any contribution points to redeem for rewards from the Metropolitan Police Department yet."

"Once you have completed a mission, you can use this to exchange for the strange information that the Metropolitan Police Department is supervising."

"When the time comes, you can tell me this information and let me help you choose a monster that will be most useful for Lika's evolution to feed her."

“That’s the real down-to-earth approach.”

"Did you hear that clearly?"

"Yeah, I understand." Yuanhui responded in a somewhat obedient manner.

For him who owns the [Blood Field], this information is actually not of much use.

He certainly wasn't going to do that.

However, this was not his purpose in the first place.

"Just as I thought, Akinomiya Yui's foresight also has many limitations. It can't be a very broad question, and it can only [see]... "

"Speaking of which, foreseeing the future like this must be very costly for Miss Akinomiya, right?" Yuan Hui showed a bit of worry, "Will there be any price to pay?"

"According to some ancient legends, those who can see the future will eventually become blind..."

"...You worry about a lot of things." Akinomiya Wei couldn't help but feel a little amused, but after all, he was worried about her, so she naturally couldn't say anything bad to Yuanhui.

The good upbringing she inherited from her parents wouldn't allow her to do that.

"Don't worry. Although foreseeing the future is not without cost, I don't have to bear these costs," said Akinomiya Wei. "That's what my spirit has to do. Anyway, its eyesight is so good, so a slight decrease is actually for its own good."

Yuanhui raised his eyebrows slightly.

So that’s how it is. The price of “foreseeing the future” is “reduced vision”?

"It's not the soul binder himself, but his own soul that bears the price?" Yuanhui looked curious and envious. "Is there any special technique used? Can I learn it?"

"Of course, the price is also easy to negotiate."

"This is not about money." Akinomiya Wei said, "My spirit and I have a special relationship, so don't even think about it."

"Oh." Yuan Hui nodded honestly, "By the way, I have another question..."

……

……

After hanging up the phone, Akinomiya Yui put it aside.

Her silver twin ponytails swayed slightly, as if indicating that the girl was in a good mood.

that's the truth.

The questions Yuanhui asked were all quite simple.

In Chinese family education, these are basic skills.

But for a soul binder like Yuanhui who was born in a wild way, these are extremely valuable knowledge.

Everyone has the habit of being a teacher, and Qiu Zhigong Wei Ziran is no exception.

The conversation just now made her feel very satisfied, and she felt like a reliable senior.

This is also the reason why she is in a good mood.

In addition, Akinomiya Yui could see that Genhui seemed to be somewhat interested in his spirit, and asked some questions related to it.

Hmm, is he trying to capture a spirit with predictive abilities to feed to [Lika]?

Wait a moment.

Recalling the conversation just now, Akinomiya Yui noticed a very important thing, which is:

She seemed, seemed, probably, perhaps... forgot to charge the fee?

67. I have seen this sister!

Monday, April 4th.

Last night, a heavy rain hit Tokyo, adding some coolness to the gradually heating up metropolis.

Today is the day when students start school and office workers start work.

It also means that Kujo Rin is one day closer to her destined death.

But our Miss Kujo is obviously unaware of this.

At this moment, she was staring at the blackboard seriously with a stern face, and was also taking notes on the blackboard with her little hands.

It is now time for Mizukami Kana's Chinese class.

After class, she glanced at Genki who was sitting behind Kujo Rin.

"Manabu-san." Mizukami Kana said in her unique sweet voice, "I have something to tell you. Please come with me to my office."

Yuanhui paused for a moment, but then stood up obediently and walked towards Mizukami Kana who was looking at her with a smile. Before leaving——

He shook his head at Morikami Nozomi who was standing beside him, stopping the other party from wanting to stand up with him.

"Mr. Mizukami only called me, so just wait here."

"...Yeah." Although there was a little uneasiness on his face, Morikami Nozomi still nodded obediently.

……

"I'm here to tell you that you don't have to go to the student council president's office after school for now."

In the office that looked small from the outside but was actually surprisingly large, Mizukami Kana said this to Genki.

Unlike before, Kana Mizukami neither took off her stockings nor unbuttoned her clothes, but instead looked extremely serious, which was rare.

Not only did she not call Yuan Hui [Youyou], she even showed a hint of coldness between her brows.

Yuan Hui was not surprised at Mizukami Kana's abnormality, but asked calmly, "Can I ask why?"

"Because the real her is not at Saint Eden Academy." Mizukami Kana answered simply, "Some additional things happened and she was needed to take action so that the situation would not get completely out of control."

"What's in school now is just a temporary substitute that I created."

"As for when little Sharan will be able to come back..." Having said this, Mizukami Kana paused, her blue eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at the boy in front of her with a somewhat inexplicable look.

"We probably have to wait until the real Youyou comes back."

She crossed her legs, propped up her cheek with one arm, and a mysterious smile appeared on her lips.

"How does it feel to dress up as [Yoyo], Morikami-san?"

Just after she finished saying this, the whole space seemed to become quiet all of a sudden, as if someone had pressed the pause button.

After a moment, Yuan Hui raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender:

"As expected, I can't hide it from you, Lord Gabriel."

He, no, it should be she, said it in a sighing tone.

That’s right, the Genki who is standing in front of Mizukami Kana at this moment is not the real Genki.

He is actually Morikami Nozomi in disguise.

The reason for all this can be traced back to Saturday night——

"...I have an idea." At the same time as the boy's words were spoken, there was also the sound of whistling wind.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Genki and Morikami arrived at the red and black land.

The spirit of Akinomiya Yui has the ability to predict the future. If we talk about it in the human world, it might know about it.

Out of caution, Yuanhui opened the [Blood Field] just like that.

Although I don’t know if it will work on that unknown spirit, it’s better to have it than nothing.

"Although the current situation seems to indicate that we have reached a dead end and are back to square one, the actual situation is not the case."

As if in response to his words, the sinful blood that was flowing rampantly on the land roared and made a rumbling sound.

There are actually three possible reasons for the current situation.

First, Akinomiya Yui predicted the death of Kujo Rin, but did not tell Genki. Instead, she pretended not to know and used this as an excuse to refuse to take action.

Judging from Kujo Rin's attitude towards Akinomiya Yui and Genki's own feelings, the possibility of this happening is actually quite low.

Secondly, Akinomiya Yui’s predictive ability is too weak, so she came to a completely wrong conclusion.

This is actually unlikely, because if that were the case, she would not have been able to make such a big name for herself.

The third, and most likely, possibility is that although the spirit of Akinomiya Yui foresaw the death of Kujo Rin, she did not tell it to Akinomiya Yui.

As for whether his purpose was to prevent Akinomiya Yui from being dragged into the whirlpool of the Kujo family, or whether he had some other ulterior motive, that was not something that Genki could deduce at the moment.

But he knew at least one thing, that is -
