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

They do not rely on various evil abilities, but on pure physical strength.

It is said that the bigger the body, the more difficult the opponent will be. This statement is most applicable to monsters.

Judging from the naked eye alone, when this strange bird spread its wings, it was at least seven or eight meters long.

"Akita-kun, let's attack together." said Eriko Ueno.

Akita Shin shook his head: "No need, it will be troublesome to get entangled, and it might attract the weirdness nearby, just go ahead."

Hearing this, several people looked at him in confusion.

That was true, but the strange bird that had discovered its prey obviously would not let them go.

Akita didn't explain much.

With his palm raised slightly, a dazzling blue light quickly emerged with the giant dragon of mental power as the center.

Soon, a blue protective shield protected them firmly.

Seeing this, the strange bird stretched out its sharp claws and swooped down with a roar.

"Oh!"

The violent collision made Kato Kei and others jump in their hearts.

But looking at the strange bird that kept launching attacks, it couldn't cause any damage to the mental shield.

She and Chisa Kujo were both bewildered; this was beyond their comprehension.

Putting aside other things, the first impression given by the sharp claws of the strange bird is that they can easily tear apart the hardest metal.

"This is..." Ueno Eriko hesitated for a long time, "A domain manifested by spiritual power?"

"Take away the question mark, and that's it."

After the one-eyed man finished speaking, he stared at Akita Makoto, wondering what he was thinking.

"teacher……"

Not to mention Chisa Kujo, Kato Megumi also looked like a curious baby at this time.

"I need to concentrate now," Akita said simply.

Helplessly, Chisa Kujo could only look at Eriko Ueno.

The latter had a headache. He organized his words first, then asked, "Miss, since you want to become a spiritualist, you should know about the spiritual realm, right?"

The girl nodded, then looked at Akita Makoto with surprise and suspicion in her eyes.

"No, can the spiritual realm be materialized?"

Ueno Eriko continued, "Theoretically, it's not possible. Since it's a domain, any error in any link will lead to a complete collapse."

"But."

She changed the subject and looked at Akita Makoto, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

“Theory is theory, reality is reality.”

"There is no shortage of talented people among the group of spiritualists. As long as you can control your spiritual power to the extreme, you can materialize your spiritual power in any way you want."

"If it's an S-level spiritualist, the domain can even cover a small city..."

"So, the teacher is a genius among geniuses?" Chisa Kujo interrupted her.

Ueno Eriko's expression froze.

She really wanted to say that this description was too straightforward and not respectful enough to the spiritual master who could materialize the spiritual realm.

"Ms. Eriko, how many S-level psychics are there?" Kato Megumi suddenly asked.

The one-eyed man chuckled and said, "Neon doesn't have that now."

"Eh?"

The three of them were stunned at the same time, all of them found it a little unbelievable.

"Very strange? There are only a thousand spiritualists in the entire Kyoto, or even less."

"As for other safe areas, the situation is similar."

"There are quite a few S-level spiritualists."

Seeing their big reaction, the weird little man scratched his head in confusion.

Akita Shin, who had already gotten rid of the strange bird, said, "There are none now, but there were some before, but for some reason they all disappeared."

"Grandpa Puppet, can you please finish what you are saying next time?" Kujo Chisa came back to her senses and said dissatisfiedly.

"Ahem, I'm old now, I forgot about it for a while."

"I do not believe."

"Little girl, I'm going to be angry!"

"..."

Not long after, everyone arrived in front of Xinguang City and slowly descended.

As for the strange bird, it lingered in the distance for a while before reluctantly leaving.

Coming to a completely new place, Kato Megumi found everything new.

There is a clear difference between here and Kyoto.

The pedestrians queuing to enter the city all had smiles on their faces to some extent, unlike in Kyoto, where they looked lifeless, in a hurry, as if they were afraid that there would be no tomorrow.

Soon, it was their turn.

The soldier guarding the city said, "Four people, one pet, and five gold coins."

"This……"

Kato Megumi couldn't help but hesitate and looked at Akita Makoto and others.

I noticed that there was no displeasure on their faces, as if it was a matter of course.

Even the usually grumpy puppet didn't get angry when being treated as a pet.

While Chisa Kujo was taking the money, Akita Shin said:

"In Xinguang City, even if you are strong enough, you still need money to pave the way."

"The belief here is - no matter what happens tomorrow, drink today."

Chapter 85: 83. Fujiwara Chika in Trouble

Kato Megumi found it incomprehensible at first.

But on second thought, I had a different opinion.

There are very few people who can become extraordinary people.

Not every refugee can meet such a good host like her and the women in her family.

If there is a mistress who is jealous, she will wait until the maid gives birth to a child and then secretly get rid of the child... It is possible that this reflects the darkness of human nature.

There are strange plots outside, and humans fighting each other inside...

In this world context, the attitude of just wanting to be happy today and not caring about tomorrow doesn’t seem difficult to understand.

After thinking for a while, Kato Hui asked again: "Master Zhen, is it okay to do illegal things in Xinguang City?"

"Of course, as long as you can afford it."

Hearing this, the strange little man flew over with ill intentions and said in a sinister tone:

"Killing a person for no reason costs 100 gold coins. For a supernatural being, it costs ten times as much. It's not expensive."

Akita is too lazy to pay attention to it.

Some of his words may make people feel uncomfortable, and he doesn't like to explore the dark side of human nature.

But now that I've said it, let's just take it as an insight.

To his surprise, Kato Megumi was not scared at all and just said "Oh".

The one-eyed man scratched his head and was about to continue threatening, but Kujo Chisa grabbed him with one hand and said unhappily:

"Grandpa Puppet, stop playing tricks on me. This is not Kyoto. Let's go in quickly."

Seeing the impatience on the faces of the people behind him, the one-eyed man smiled awkwardly.

After entering the city, the two sides separated.

Because it was a spur of the moment decision, Akita Makoto didn't bring any money with him. Fortunately, a careful and generous student left a bag of heavy gold coins.

"Sir, are Chisa-san and the others going to...?"

Akita Shin retracted his gaze: "In safe areas related to money, the gambling industry is naturally the most developed. Either go to the fighting arena or go to the casino."

In an era of scarce entertainment, gambling and sensory stimulation of the naked eye can, to a certain extent, bring people multiple dopamine and are prone to addiction.

Chisa Kujo is okay, she is a little willful sometimes, but she is still a girl at heart, and most of the time she just wants something new.

As for that puppet...Akita really just hopes that when they meet up, it doesn't lose even its underwear.

"Ok."

Kato Megumi felt that this place didn't seem very interesting.

But soon, she took back the idea.

"it is good!"

"Go on, you'll be rewarded."

"..."

There was cheering from the front, and when they got closer they saw that it was a magic show.

As a spiritualist, Akita can really tell that the people performing are just ordinary people.

Those little tricks that rely on sleight of hand cannot hide from his eyes.

But there is no shortage of people with extraordinary vision around, and everyone doesn’t think too much about it. They just want to have some fun and something new.

The colorful scarf turns into a fish, turns into a flying pigeon, and pours water out of an empty bowl...

Kato Megumi watched with great interest, and when she encountered a performance that she couldn't understand, she would curiously ask Akita Shin about the tricks behind it.

Akita really explained it to her patiently.

This was nothing new to him, but as long as she enjoyed it, it was fine.

After all, we are here to relax, not to have fun.

Finally, Kato Megumi took out a silver coin from her purse as a reward.

Gold coins are hard currency, and even though silver coins cannot compare to them, they are still a trustworthy currency.

Otherwise, if everything had to be paid for with gold coins, it wouldn't be enough even if there were only a few people.

The two walked towards the bustling area, and would stop for a moment whenever they came across something new.

Soon, Kato Megumi discovered something strange.

"Sir, why are there so many beggars in Xinguang City?"

Akita explained helplessly:

"Hui, you have to learn to think from a different perspective. In a place where pleasure is the most important thing, would you care about the feelings of others besides yourself?"

“Most of Kyoto’s policies and systems are not applicable to other safety zones.”

"There is no such thing as refugees in Xinguang City. As long as you have money, you can even hire extraordinary people as bodyguards."

Hearing this, Kato Megumi smiled a little embarrassedly.

Unconsciously, she had gotten used to it and would think of him first when encountering difficulties.

After taking a quick look around, she finally ignored the beggars whose eyes were shining but who were afraid to come forward and complain about their misery because of the B-level Psychic Medal on Akita Makoto's chest.

If you show your kindness without any reason, it will cause trouble to the real master...
