A group of people traveled through a strange world, and I was the only one who was not a refugee.

The latter...was already blushing a little.

Kasumigaoka Utaha stopped teasing Akita Shin.

Today is the first day of the holiday and most people in Kyoto are able to rest, so there are many people on the streets.

Even the inner city was crowded with people at this time.

More and more people are flocking to the inner city. If you want to go to the outer city through the city gate, it looks like you have to wait in line for at least ten minutes.

Akita Shin looked around and simply took the three girls to the nearby road.

The police officers on duty were already accustomed to his behavior of flying people over the city gate and pretended not to see it.

After a while.

"My Lord, what's wrong?"

He suddenly stopped, causing Hikigaya, Komachi and the other two to subconsciously become alert.

"Nothing... that's all."

Akita shook his head helplessly.

To be honest, during this relaxing time, he really didn't want to spoil the fun.

But there are always people who like to stir up trouble, and their methods are extremely cruel, so you have no choice but to intervene.

352. Cultists, sacrifice, hunting, and devouring

"Shiha, Mai, Komachi, the three of you stay here while I go take care of things."

Since only the extremely bloody crime scene was left, Akita Shin was not too anxious. All he had to do next was follow the traces to find the real culprit.

"Master Shin, is it weird..." Sakurajima Mai asked in confusion.

Akita shook his head: "It's most likely a cultist."

Hearing this, the three women couldn't help but look at each other.

Having been in this world for quite some time, they certainly knew the difference between members of underground organizations and cultists.

Akita once said.

The main reason why underground organizations are allowed to survive in this land is the way they gain power.

It doesn't have to be extreme.

For example, when harvesting negative emotions, as long as the process is controlled well, the victim will not die and will not have any physical problems.

You can also increase your own strength by plundering strange powers.

But the cultists are very different, every time they take action, they will cause killing!

If the underground organization in Kyoto is like a rat crossing the street, everyone will want to kill it.

What about the cultists… When citizens learn that there are cultists roaming around, the streets will probably be cleared out in an instant.

Hikigaya Komachi hesitated: "Main-sama, is it like the cult my brother encountered when he first crossed over?"

Regarding this matter, because Akita Shin had previously commissioned Hikigaya Hachiman, he was mistaken for a thief by Kato Megumi, Kasumigaoka Utaha, and Hayasaka Ai.

So in his spare time, he told them the tragic story of the Great Teacher...

Seeing Akita Shin looking at her, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt a little helpless, as this was not something she had revealed.

"Well, it should be."

Akita Shin withdrew his gaze, but didn't care too much.

This is how the world is. Even a powerful family like the Kujo Family cannot protect Kujo Chisa for her entire life. There are some realities that they will have to face sooner or later.

"Then sir, please take us with you. We will hide behind and watch you handle it." Hikigaya Komachi said with a serious expression.

Akita was surprised at first, then tried to stop him: "It's bloody."

Hikigaya Komachi patted her chest to show that she didn't care, then looked at Sakurajima Mai and Kasumigaoka Utaha beside her and asked for their opinions.

Sakurajima Mai frowned slightly and said, "If it won't cause you any trouble, I'd like to go with you and take a look."

She believes that this is the living environment.

Since we can't change it, we can only try to adapt to it.

"Then let's be careful." Kasumigaoka Utaha is also a brave person, even though she is a little panicked in her heart.

A few months ago, Akita really took them to the crime scene.

Although it made people feel uncomfortable, it did not leave any shadow on her.

"In that case, you should just follow me from a distance."

Akita Zhen didn't say anything else and walked in the direction where he sensed the abnormality.

Sakurajima Mai and the other two followed him from a distance.

After a while, the four of them entered a dilapidated residential alley one after another.

Seeing that Hikigaya Komachi and Sakurajima Mai were a little confused, Kasumigaoka Utaha explained in a low voice:

"After the development of the outer city area, some residents of the outer city were affected by the policy and chose to relocate."

"The land rights in these places... can be understood as being sold to the government, and they may be transformed into commercial streets or something like that in the future."

The two of them suddenly understood.

"Wait, Komachi and Shiwa, do you feel something strange..."

Before she could finish her words, Mai Sakurajima's expression turned painful.

Not only her, but also Hikigaya Komachi and Kasumigaoka Utaha, all noticed an unusually sticky feeling in the air.

It feels like some kind of liquid is flowing, and when it touches the pores of the skin, it makes people feel nauseous.

They tried to use their mental powers to expel it or isolate it, but to no avail.

Kasumigaoka Utaha reacted instantly and realized that this was because of the difference in strength.

But soon, the strange feeling disappeared.

Akita really just wanted them to experience it and remember the feeling, which could be transformed into experience to some extent.

But I won't really leave it alone.

Unexpectedly, things turned out to be more serious than expected.

As they went deeper into the alley, Akita's expression became calmer.

next moment.

Hikigaya Komachi opened her eyes wide instantly, as if she had seen some horrifying scene.

He subconsciously covered his mouth with his hands, but stopped himself.

"My Lord, be careful!"

Before he finished speaking, Sakurajima Mai and Kasumigaoka Utaha also saw the sudden change in the scene.

An indescribable evil aura swept in from all directions.

My body started shaking uncontrollably!

For the three of them, the scene they were seeing could probably be described as "horrifying".

But for Akita Shin, he has already gotten used to it.

Stepping on the ground stained with black and red blood, he gradually slowed down his pace and at the same time released his mental power to block the existence of Kasumigaoka Utaha and the other two.

The creatures hiding in the darkness are more impatient than expected.

"Snapped!"

Two arms covered in sticky blood suddenly stretched out from the blood plane behind Akita Makoto.

Mai Sakurajima's mind went blank for a moment, and when she was about to scream subconsciously, something suddenly flashed before her eyes.

The three girls had no idea what was happening, and saw the scene around them return to normal, turning back into the deserted residential alley.

"That is……?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha was the first to notice a creature with an evil appearance and blood flowing all over its body standing in front of Akita Mami.

"It should be the thing that just tried to attack Master Zhen."

As she spoke, Sakurajima Mai felt her wildly beating heart calm down a lot.

Although Hikigaya Komachi still felt her scalp tingling, she still mustered up the courage to step forward, suppressing the discomfort in her heart. After observing the blood-colored creature for a while, she asked in confusion:

"My Lord, didn't you say they were cultists?"

Akita smiled and turned over the dead creatures on the ground with his feet: "This thing can be eaten.

"

"..."

The three women looked at each other, and immediately felt strongly nauseous.

"Wait……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha seemed to have thought of something, and said with a bad expression:

"Master Zhen, you mean that this creature... let's call it a weird one, was created by the cultists."

"Let it hunt nearby humans. When the fruit is ripe, the cultists will come and pick it."

It has to be said that her words were very clever, but they made Sakurajima Mai and Hikigaya Komachi feel even more disgusted.

Akita Shin didn't think it was a big deal and looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha with admiring eyes.

"It seems that you, Shiyu, have read a lot about the principles of secret techniques and rituals, so your description is flawless."

"From my experience, it involves two secret methods and a ritual that combine with each other."

"The ritual type is 'sacrifice'."

"Secret Techniques: Hunting Techniques, Devouring Techniques."

353. Mai’s thoughts, the cultist who was raped

To be honest, Akita really thinks that the other party is a talent, as he can combine rituals and secret techniques to such an extent.

"So what are you going to do next, sir, to catch that cultist?" asked Mai Sakurajima.

"No hurry." Akita Shin's eyes were full of amusement. "Let's go get the materials for the sacrifice first."

For some reason, Sakurajima Mai and Kasumigaoka Utaha both had a bad feeling in their hearts when they looked at his expression.

bloody……

Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly remembered what he had said to them before entering the alley.

He looked at Sakurajima Mai, who frowned slightly and seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and Hikigaya Komachi, who didn't think much about it.

She took two steps back calmly.

If you look from a distance, it should be fine.

However, the idea is always good.

When they saw the so-called materials mentioned by Akita Makoto, whether it was Sakurajima Mai, Hikigaya Komachi, or even Kasumigaoka Utaha, they almost fainted on the spot.

head!

Human heads!!

There were seven of them, standing in a circle, but their eyes turned strangely towards them, staring straight at them!!!

Akita really didn't care about their reactions. He couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the victims who were brutally murdered and became materials for emitting negative emotions after their death.

"RIP."

It didn't take much time for Akita Shin to extract the key clues from these "materials".

Akita Shin first informed the patrolling police officers of the situation and asked them to handle the aftermath.

Then he took Kasumigaoka Utaha and the other two to look for the murderer.

During this time, Hikigaya Komachi asked two questions.
