Even if she blocked Lin Qi, Yukinoshita Yukino could still imagine his hateful look as he silently laughed at her in her mind.

Forget it. It’s probably because of the intimidation by Parasyte that I have become an evil villain in his eyes.

Yukinoshita Yukino pinched her brows in distress and said in a rather regretful tone: "Hikigaya-san, how long has it been since you last talked to a girl?"

After these words were spoken, even Hikigaya Hachiman, who was determined to keep playing the role of a humble subordinate who would lick his boss' shoes in order to survive, was subconsciously shaken.

Consciousness was disconnected at this moment, the hands of time were turned back, and memory jumped to the past.

I remember it was June two years ago...

That summer there was no cool, sweet watermelon or citrus-flavored sparkling water. Instead, there was a dark history that I could not tell anyone about and would make me roll on the ground in embarrassment whenever I recalled it.

The sun pierced through the shade of the trees, and the summer cicadas chirped twice symbolically before falling silent. The old air conditioner in the classroom was blowing cold air, trying to lower the room temperature, but the students sitting in the classroom were still sweating from the heat.

"I say, is it too hot?" the girl at the next table turned around and said.

"It's more like it's stuffy!" The boy with dead eyes who was pulling at his collar was stunned for a moment and then quickly replied.

"Ah... um..." The two girls at the neighboring table and the table behind looked at each other awkwardly.

Ah ah ah ah ah! ! !

The memory of the dark history that triggered the protection mechanism was automatically disconnected, the dead eyes glowed again, and when his consciousness returned to the real world, Hachiman Hikigaya was immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.

What a scary woman! She shook my mind with just one sentence!

This was undoubtedly an open conspiracy! If he concealed his dark history and did not report it, he would be killed for lying; but if he was angry about the revelation of his dark history and did something disrespectful to her, he would also be killed!

Maybe one day, I will be killed just because I stepped into the Service Club with my left foot first!

In short, in order to live longer, you must maintain a respectful attitude to the end.

Hikigaya Hachiman glanced at Yukinoshita Yukino cautiously and with a vigilant look. Then he scratched his head as if nothing had happened and told her all his dark history honestly.

Seeing his stubborn attitude, the girl sighed helplessly, "You have a long way to go. Since you have joined the club, the first thing you should understand is the purpose of our club."

"Yes...by the way, what kind of club is this?" Hikigaya Hachiman asked curiously. Even though he was isolated from socializing, he knew that a club must have more than four people to be established and to be allocated an activity classroom by the Student Union.

And so far, apart from myself who was just forced to join, it seems that the only person in this club is Yukinoshita Yukino.

"It's the Service Department."

"It's Master Lin Qi's spell class!"

Two completely different voices coming from the same person's mouth.

"Eh?"

Hikigaya Hachiman was stunned for a moment, while Yukinoshita Yukino immediately blushed and covered her cheeks with her hands.

Am I seeing things? A mouth appeared on Yukinoshita's face???

Hikigaya Hachiman is well-read and knowledgeable. Whether in movies, TV series or various novels, once an insignificant character knows a secret, his fate is self-evident.

Encountering the bizarre scene, the young man was not at all panicked. Instead, his face was calm, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sense of loneliness and Zen, and there seemed to be a Buddha's light shining behind him.

Dear Komachi, you don't have to make dinner for brother, because he is going on a long voyage tonight...

[Why did you come out? Didn’t you agree not to come out? Liar! Scumbag!]

"Who told you to stop me from talking?" The mouth popped out again from the back of Yukinoshita Yukino's hand that was covering her cheek. Not only that, the pair of eyes that looked like tiny scars also opened, and the scarlet pupils were facing the dead fish-eyed boy.

The moment their eyes met, Hikigaya Hachiman understood that the phantom of the demon god he had seen earlier was the being who called himself Uncle Lin Qi.

It was not Yukinoshita Yukino, but Lin Qi, who appeared on Yukinoshita for some reason and shared the same body with her.

Considering Yukinoshita's unwillingness, I'm afraid she is also a victim. As for why this happened to Yukinoshita, it is unknown.

In the blink of an eye, he figured out the whole story, so Hikigaya Hachiman chose to lie down.

This scary guy seemed to be controlled by Yukinoshita herself, so his life should not be in danger; on the other hand, if Lin Qi really wanted to take his life and Yukinoshita couldn't stop him, then he wouldn't be able to escape either.

Moreover, Hikigaya Hachiman did not vaguely feel that Uncle Lin Qi had any ill will towards him. On the contrary, he was keenly aware that what happened to him today might become a turning point in his life.

The door to a new world appeared in front of me. A dazzling light shone from the slightly opened door, attracting me to push it open.

Monsters that can only be seen by a few people including himself, the inner side of the world, a boss-like existence that resides in the girl's body... Isn't this a straight-up light novel story?

The middle school spirit of Hachiman Daibutsu seems to be reviving.

……

……

Chapter 9: Out of the blue

"Hey, Hikigaya-kun."

Yukinoshita Yukino, who had a pair of eyes and a mouth on her face, seemed ashamed to see people. She lay on the table and buried her head between her arms like an ostrich, but Lin Qi's voice still came from her.

"Yes!" Hikigaya Hachiman, who was called, stood at attention immediately and almost shouted "yes, sir!" subconsciously.

"Can you see it? Curse spirit."

So those monsters are called cursed spirits?

The dead-eyed boy was stunned for a moment and then quickly said, "Yes, I suddenly saw it this morning when I was going to school. That's why I was so scared that I wrote that essay and was brought here by Mr. Hiratsuka..."

Sure enough.

There is cursed energy in everyone's body, and for those who have the talent to become a sorcerer, the total amount of cursed energy will increase with age, but it will no longer increase after adulthood. The upper limit of a sorcerer's cursed energy is basically there, and if they want to continue to become stronger, they can only become stronger by developing their own awakening techniques.

The world of sorcerers is essentially a world that depends on talent.

But in the case of Hikigaya Hachiman, this law seems to be broken.

Although it was very weak and could be easily overlooked if one was not paying attention, his cursed power was indeed slowly increasing.

Lin Qi, whose main body was still in the field, supported his chin with his hand, frowned and thought. He already had a vague guess in his mind, but he needed more examples to verify it.

Lin Qi fell silent after asking the question. Yukinoshita Yukino kept her head down and didn't say anything. Hikigaya Hachiman's mood was up and down at the moment, and he was very nervous, as if he was on a roller coaster.

Lin Qi didn't say anything because he was thinking about something, and Yukinoshita Yukino remained silent. Besides not knowing what to say, the main reason was that Hikigaya Hachiman was forced to join the club by Hiratsuka Sensei was almost the same as what Lin Qi said.

It seemed that ever since Lin Qi woke up in her body, she had been defeated by him. This made the strong-willed girl feel a strong sense of frustration.

Maybe I need to make changes myself.

First of all, we must face up to the existence of this parasite in our body.

Thinking of this, Yukinoshita Yukino tried hard to overcome her girlish shame and sat up straight again, which allowed Hikigaya Hachiman to clearly see the extra pair of eyes.

Although having four eyes on a person's face is scary, Hikigaya didn't think that Yukinoshita Yukino's appearance was scary at all. Instead, it added a charming aura to her already cute face.

If before, Yukinoshita Yukino gave people the impression of being a lotus flower that grew out of the mud without being stained, standing tall and pure, then at this moment, she was a black rose emitting a faint glow, both mysterious and beautiful.

"Although you are weak, there is no doubt that you have the talent to become a sorcerer at this moment." As if unwilling to destroy the beauty of this face, Lin Qi's mouth appeared on the smooth back of Yukinoshita Yukino's hand.

"Eh? Me?" Hikigaya Hachiman pointed at himself.

"Yes, generally speaking, whether one can become a sorcerer or not is known at a young age, and the time for awakening the spell is around eight or nine years old."

"But I'm already seventeen years old..."

"This is what I'm curious about. Although I'm not sure of the specific reason, I guess that perhaps there has been some kind of change in the world of spells, causing a group of ordinary people who originally had no talent to awaken, and you are one of them."

"The average human in this era doesn't seem to know about the existence of the curse, but perhaps in the near future, this situation will be broken." Lin Qi expressed his conjecture, and then changed the subject: "It just so happens that I am very bored and like to teach others, so I decided to teach you some skills to save your life."

"I don't want to come out to cover for you every time you're in danger, and then be sent back by you when I'm done, like a tool." Lin Qi complained, and Yukinoshita Yukino knew that he was talking to her.

"Shouldn't it be teaching some skills to kill people and do evil?"

"Master! Please accept my disciple's greetings!"

While Yukinoshita Yukino was complaining, Hikigaya Hachiman had already bowed down. The girl couldn't help but cast a contemptuous look at him: "You changed sides too quickly, didn't you? You're a fence-sitter."

Hikigaya Hachiman, who was sitting opposite Yukinoshita Yukino, immediately raised his head and said with dissatisfaction: "What are you talking about? This is something that all Japanese high school boys dream of happening. Even I can't refuse it!"

You ungrateful woman! Do you think that high school boys only have those rosy love crap in their heads? Who would give up the opportunity to contact extraordinary powers and become a hero?

"A young boy is teachable. This is the right attitude to adopt when seeking knowledge from a teacher. Yukinoshita, you should learn more from him." Apart from anything else, Lin Qi was very satisfied with Hikigaya Hachiman's respect.

The black-haired girl cast a cold look at the back of her hand, subconsciously wanting to say something venomous, but when she thought that she might not be able to win the argument with Lin Qi, she had to hold back the sarcastic words on her lips and said in a stiff tone: "So, what are you going to teach us?"

"Give me the permission."

Seeing that Yukinoshita Yukino was still a little hesitant, Lin Qi said unhappily: "Anyway, you can take back control of your body at any time, what are you afraid of? You will never achieve anything great if you hesitate!"

His sharp comments made Yukinoshita Yukino subconsciously think of her mother, as if her mother had also made such an evaluation of her.

After a moment of trance, the girl silently handed over control of her body.

So, in the eyes of Hikigaya Hachiman, black lines slowly appeared on Yukinoshita Yukino's face, and the previous powerful aura, like a ferocious beast that was choosing its prey, also emanated from it.

Fortunately, Lin Qi quickly controlled the leaking breath, which made the shivering boy with dead fish eyes breathe a sigh of relief and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead as if relieved.

That was a close call. I almost couldn’t help falling down… Oh, I think I’ve already fallen down once. So it’s okay now.

This is an important moment to turn the second-year fantasy into reality. Whether it is kneeling or licking shoes, I will not hesitate at all!

Hikigaya Hachiman reaffirmed his resolve.

"Oh, you have good eyes~"

Lin Qi put one hand on her waist and smiled frivolously. Yukinoshita Yukino, who usually had a cold face, showed such a playful expression under Lin Qi's control. It looked quite interesting, but she herself didn't seem to think so.

【Avoid using other people's bodies to make strange movements! 】

[Okay, okay. 】

Lin Qi shrugged her shoulders, walked to the podium, took out two pieces of chalk from the chalk box and placed them on the table: "First of all, cursed power. Cursed power is the power born from human negative emotions. Whether you can control cursed power is the mark that distinguishes ordinary people from cursers. You must understand the difference between the spell and the simple attack with cursed power."

He snapped his fingers, and one piece of chalk was broken and flew away by an invisible force, while the other one broke neatly into two pieces and slid onto the podium, with the cut surface as smooth as if it had never been broken.

"The former is a cursed attack, and the latter is a technique. Do you understand?"

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at the two broken pieces of chalk and said thoughtfully, "The former is a normal attack, and the latter is a skill, right?"

"It's okay if you understand it this way." Lin Qi nodded and said, "Everyone's technique is different. My technique is slashing. Although Yukinoshita doesn't have a technique now, as time goes by, her body will also be engraved with my technique."

"As for you, kid, maybe you will awaken your own technique in the future."

Hikigaya nodded to show that he understood.

"If you want to learn how to control cursed energy, you must first feel the cursed energy in your body..." Lin Qi looked up and down at Hikigaya Hachiman and said with a playful smile, "Hikigaya, do you want to become a cursed sorcerer?"

His abrupt question made the dead-eyed boy stunned for a moment, and then he said: "Well, since you have started studying, you must have thought about it."

"Become a sorcerer, exorcise cursed spirits, and protect the peace of human society in secret, or use this ability to do evil and make profits for yourself. Such sorcerers are called curse masters. Which one do you choose?"

"It's naturally the former. I don't want to become that kind of dangerous criminal." This time he answered very quickly.

"Hoho~ So, how far can you go for this?"

Are you testing me? Isn't it time to express your opinion? Don't underestimate the determination of a high school boy who wants to become a hero and protect peace!

Hikigaya Hachiman gradually understood everything. He said with a firm look in his eyes: "I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Lin Qi nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "Very good."

He casually made a hand seal, and a black "curtain" began to descend from the ceiling like a sticky liquid. It soon enveloped the entire classroom, and even the light became dim, as if night had truly fallen.

"What is this?" Hikigaya Hachiman asked curiously and yearningly. Is this some kind of barrier technique?

"Because of the curtain, most people won't notice what's happening here, and even the sound can't be heard." Lin Qi explained.

Hikigaya Hachiman nodded in understanding, and looked forward to Uncle Lin Qi's next lecture even more.

Then he saw Lin Qi waving.

The next moment, the sound of silk tearing was heard, and a tear appeared on Hikigaya Hachiman's school uniform at the right shoulder, followed by his entire right hand, and blood splattered everywhere.

"Eh?"

……

……

Chapter 10: I'm OK

"Eh?"

Before his brain could react, his entire right arm was cut off at the root and fell to the ground like a piece of rotten meat. The smooth cut surface, like a hot knife cutting butter, was still oozing blood.

What happened?

Hikigaya Hachiman looked down at his arm that had fallen to the ground with dull eyes. Before he could react to what had happened, the intense pain that had been delayed for two seconds suddenly came flooding back like a tide.
