This is not the date I wanted.

Junai on the screen said this in a tone that seemed to annoy her. However, she still quickly processed the image with filters and sharpening.

"Sure enough, there is..."

As the picture gradually became clearer, Meng Yue's eyes showed a trace of solemnity. Just as Shidao said, when Niya and he were dragged into the Illusionary Library by Viscott, many "arms" suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Illusionary Library, grabbed the two and dragged them into the Illusionary Library.

And just before falling into the Fantasy Book House, Shidao accidentally saw the owner of the "arm", a group of girls who looked exactly like "Ormori Maruna".

[Hmph~ Is this what Shidou was talking about, the guy who might be my sister? ]

Looking at the "arm" in the picture, Junai asked indifferently.

"Well, who knows. So far, the only one who has witnessed the true face of the "arm" is Shidou, and I didn't see those people when I was in the Genshukan, so this remains to be verified."

Meng Yue said so. Although it's not that she doesn't believe Shidao's words, but there are few clues that can be used as intelligence at present, only this video and Shidao's testimony, she doesn't want to make a rash judgment.

"Ju Nai, what do you think?"

[Sa~ It’s probably true, isn’t it? 】

Junai shrugged helplessly and expressed his opinion.

[Originally, I was an AI created by my father on a whim. As long as he is willing, it would be easy for him to design a few more AIs of the same kind and use my appearance data model to create them.] "Indeed."

Meng Yue nodded in understanding. It was indeed as Junai said. Since Westcott was able to create an artificial intelligence like Junai, he was naturally also able to design a second and third one.

"But if that's all, then they should be artificial intelligence like you, and it's impossible for them to interfere with the real world like that."

[Hmm - I don't know about that. But if there is only one possibility, it would be the power of the 'Divine Eclipse Chapter', right?]

"I see... It happened right after Erya's spirit crystal was taken away."

There was a look of realization in Mengyue's eyes.

Recalling the reversal of Erya at that time, after the appearance of the "Divine Eclipse Chapter", Erya's spiritual power first condensed into black mud, and then changed into a strangely shaped "alien" army.

Now that I think about it, the two do have similarities. It's just that the two forms of expression are so different, just like a clay figurine made of plasticine and a carefully crafted figurine, Meng Yue didn't associate them together for a while.

"So, that's also the ability of the Divine Eclipse? Since Nia was in a rampage at the time, she could only summon black mud with no clear appearance. So is it actually an ability that materializes the user's imagination through spiritual power?"

Meng Yue speculated.

[Well, since you said so, then it should be correct. ]

Ju Nai said without denying it.

Although there is no definite evidence, considering that the "Divine Eclipse Chapter" is now in Westcott's hands, this speculation is the most likely.

[However, they are using similar strength, why does it seem so dangerous in the hands of father, but so weak in the hands of Niya? ]

Junai complained speechlessly.

"Well, fighting isn't everything for a person. Nia also has her own strengths (probably), so let's not dwell on this issue."

Mengyue waved her hand with a wry smile, trying to smooth things over for Erya who was not present.

(Er Ya (awakened): Ha Qiu!? What's going on? I feel like someone is saying something bad about me?)

[Sister, Mengyue. Are you still awake? ]

At this moment, a door appeared on the computer screen, and then the door opened, and Ju Ya leaned out with a worried look on his face.

"Well, I investigated something that I was concerned about. It's over now."

[Is that so? Then go and get some rest. It's getting late, and it would be bad if you oversleep and are late.]

"That's true. Well, I'll be asleep soon."

I usually go to bed later. Although she was complaining in her heart, Meng Yue also understood Ju Ya's good intentions and nodded in reply.

[Okay, sister, come back with me and have a rest. ]

[Hey, it’s okay if we don’t sleep. ]

[No! Sister, your idea is very dangerous. Even if it is artificial intelligence, bugs will appear if it runs too much! ]

As he said that, Ju Ya took Ju Nai's hand and spoke in a tough tone.

[What kind of perverse logic is this...Okay, I get it.]

Although he was a little impatient, Junai finally couldn't cope with the stubborn Junya and sighed to compromise.

[Oh, by the way, Mengyue. Please tell Gokawa Shidao a message for me.]

Just before leaving, Jun Nai suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Meng Yue.

"what?"

[“Those guys are not my sisters! Julia is enough for me as my sister.”]

Said, Junai sighed helplessly,

[I'm not worried about your words, Meng Yue, but that idiot is too stupid. If I don't explain it clearly, when I meet enemies who look like me, I will definitely suffer because of my unnecessary sympathy.] "...Okay, I'll tell Shidao."

Meng Yue nodded to show her understanding, and looked at Junai's cheek, unable to help but smile.

"Thank you for your concern, Junai."

[I, I'm not concerned about you! It's just that Shidou's cowardly look during training was too ugly, so I made an exception and reminded him.]

[Okay, okay~ Thank you for your hard work, sister. Good night, Mengyue. ]

【Who is the tsundere? 】

"OK, good night."

Watching Ju Ya and Ju Nai disappear from the screen, Meng Yue turned off the computer, let out a light breath, and lay back on the bed.

“…I can’t sleep.”

After tossing and turning in bed for a few minutes, Mengyue opened her eyes reluctantly.

She didn't know if it was because the time connection between the virtual world and the real world was not adjusted properly, or because she felt that she had overlooked something important, but Meng Yue felt a sense of anxiety in her heart, preventing her from falling asleep peacefully.

--despair.

At this moment, a light sound like a ping-pong ball falling to the ground rang in Mengyue's ears.

(Coming from the balcony?)

Meng Yue frowned slightly. If someone else in the apartment came to see her, there was no need to sneak to the balcony, they could just ring the doorbell from the corridor.

(A thief?)

Meng Yue lay on the bed with her eyes closed pretending to be asleep, while remaining alert and paying attention to the other person's actions.

No sound of tools such as window breakers being used was heard, and if the doors or windows were damaged, the alarm system in the apartment would naturally sound the alarm.

However, this did not make Meng Yue feel at ease. She felt that the other party had not left, but had successfully invaded the room, ignoring the more valuable items such as the TV and computer, and the subtle footsteps were approaching Meng Yue directly.

(It’s better to strike first!)

After feeling the other party walking to the bed, Meng Yue suddenly opened her eyes, and without giving the other party time to react, she pushed the other party to the ground.

Sitting astride the opponent's waist, Meng Yue quickly used joint techniques to lock the opponent's joints to prevent him from making further movements.

After completing the suppression, Meng Yue felt a little confused. Even if she caught the other party off guard, the whole suppression process was too smooth. Meng Yue could not even feel any resistance or struggle from the other party. "Alala. That's too much. Miss Meng Yue, you really don't know how to be gentle with women."

A familiar voice sounded from the darkness. Mengyue took out her cell phone and turned on the flashlight. Sure enough, the person coming was someone she knew.

"Long time no see, what are you doing here?"

Secretly preparing to summon spiritual equipment and angels at any time, Meng Yue questioned the other party in a cold voice.

"Tokisaki Kurumi."

"whee--"

Hearing this, Tokisaki Kurumi, the most evil elf towards mankind who was being pressed down by Mengyue at this time, chuckled without any nervousness, and then said in a regretful tone.

"I attacked Miss Mengyue in the dead of night, but unfortunately failed~"

03 Kurumi returns to school

==============================

"I attacked Miss Mengyue in the dead of night, but unfortunately failed~"

"……Are you serious?"

Hearing what Kuang San said, Meng Yue's mouth twitched slightly.

"Who knows?"

Kuang San said mysteriously.

"But looking at the situation, maybe I am the one being attacked. If Miss Mengyue wants to be the one taking the initiative..."

As she spoke, Kuang San shrank her shoulders, and the shoulder straps of her spiritual outfit loosened slightly. Her skin as smooth as white porcelain and her buttocks that rose and fell with her breathing reflected a faint fluorescence under the moonlight, which was beautiful with a hint of fragrance.

Just like a weak girl being raped by someone, Kuang San turned her face away, her fair cheeks slightly flushed, and spoke in a tone that seemed to be reluctant but also welcoming.

"...Please be gentle."

"……It's enough."

After staring at Kuang San in silence for a long time, Meng Yue finally managed to utter these words with a headache.

It must be said that if a young boy who had just begun to feel emotions faced such teasing from Kuang San, he would have probably lost his mind and moved like a monkey. Even Meng Yue, if it was her first time meeting Kuang San, would probably feel a little dry in the mouth.

But unfortunately, Meng Yue had dealt with this girl several times on other occasions, so she naturally knew how dangerous a man-eating plant she was. If she was simply bewitched by her beauty and lost her judgment, she would be shot to death if she was lucky, but if she was unlucky, she might not even leave a bone behind.

"Sorry, Kuang San, I'm a little tired today and want to make up for my sleep as soon as possible. If you want to have sex with a lesbian, can't you just give your clones a direct order?"

"That's too much! Not only did you dump me! You also called me an ugly girl who no one likes except you?! I'm so sad! I want to cry!"

A glimmer of tears flashed in the corner of Kuang San's eyes.

"I didn't say that..."

Looking at Kuang San who was pretending to cry with a wronged look on her face, Meng Yue couldn't help but frown.

(Well, it seems like there is no hostility.)

Quietly observing the movements around her, Meng Yue did not discover any of Kuang San's clones lurking in the house. Considering that the other party had not resisted from beginning to end, Meng Yue ruled out the possibility of a sneak attack.

(But trouble is still trouble.)

Relaxing the tension in her shoulders slightly, Meng Yue loosened up Kuang San's joints and moved away from her.

"Okay. Now I'll ask you again, what are you doing here? Tell me clearly first. If you want to continue your boring acting, please leave here immediately."

"Ah, how cruel Miss Mengyue. I just wanted to lighten the atmosphere with a little joke."

Kurumi stood up from the floor lightly, brushed off the dust on her skirt, and replied with a smile on her face.

"I would not appreciate a joke coming from a late night trespasser."

Meng Yue said unhappily, while keeping alert and keeping a distance from Kuang San, she glanced in the direction of the balcony - the direction of the Gokawa family.

(Is Shidou okay?)

Meng Yue felt a little uneasy. Although she didn't feel the other party's hostility, after all, Kurumi's ultimate goal was always the spiritual power in Shidao's body. It was possible that she sent a clone to delay time and took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Shidao.

"Don't worry Miss Mengyue, I didn't attack Mr. Shidao."

As if seeing through Meng Yue's thoughts, Kuang San shook her head and replied.

"Besides, if you really want to attack Mr. Shidao, there is no need to come to this room and do something like this to alert the enemy."

"……Too."

Meng Yue exhaled, and slightly let down her guard. She sat on the chair next to the desk and looked at Kuang San.

"So, you came to see me tonight specifically?"

"Yes. That's right." In response to Meng Yue's question, Kuang San nodded affirmatively, "I came here because I have something important to tell you."

"important things?"

Meng Yue couldn't help but frown. She found that Kuang San no longer had the frivolous expression she had just had during the conversation. Instead, she had a solemn and serious expression that she had never seen before.

“Yes, maybe what I’m going to say next is unbelievable, but please believe that what I say is true.”

I saw Kuang San took a deep breath and said,

"After school this afternoon, Mr. Shidou will be killed by the magician from DEM on the rooftop of Raizen High School."
