“Ah? Ah…Ahhhhhh!!!”

Tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes. The pain was far greater than the one he suffered last year when his leg was broken by a black luxury car and was beyond the endurance of an ordinary high school boy. Hikigaya Hachiman wailed with a distorted expression. He wanted to press the wound with his only remaining left hand, but he dared not touch it. He could only clutch his collar tightly, and the veins on the back of his hand and forehead bulged.

"What did you do, you guy!?" The black lines on Yukinoshita Yukino's face disappeared like melting ice. For the first time, the girl forcefully took back control of her body. She walked forward in panic. She had never faced such a bloody scene before. Her clever brain was blank at this moment.

"Yes, stop the bleeding... we must stop the bleeding!"

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know where to put her trembling hands. She looked around, searching the activity room for something that could be used for emergency bandaging. However, her brain had the idea of ​​stopping the bleeding of Hikigaya Hachiman, but her body was unable to take action.

Hikigaya Hachiman was still wailing, his pair of dead fish eyes narrowed, and the whites of his eyes were covered with bloodshot due to congestion. He slumped over on the ground against the wall, resisting the urge to roll around on the ground.

"Infirmary! Hikigaya, wait here for me! Hold on!" Yukinoshita Yukino bit her lower lip tightly, tears flashing in her eyes.

I shouldn't have listened to that guy! What a fool I am! I knew that Lin Qi was a wicked person who had committed all kinds of evil thousands of years ago, but I still handed over the control of my body.

At the beginning of his first year of high school, his family car crashed into Hachiman Hikigaya and sent him to the hospital. Two years later, Hikigaya had his hand cut off because he released Lin Qi.

Everything is your own fault!

Regret, anger, fear, despair, strong negative emotions were born in the hearts of the two people in the service club and turned into cursed energy flowing through their bodies.

"No."

The girl's smooth forehead suddenly opened into a grin, and Lin Qi spoke with a smile in her tone, but also with a hint of majesty that could not be disobeyed.

【error! error! 】

[Warning! Warning! Control of the host's body is being taken away! ]

Ignoring the error window that popped up frantically, Lin Qi continued to speak: "You should have felt it, the curse power born from strong negative emotions, use your consciousness to control it."

"What are you still talking about at this time!?" Yukinoshita Yukino didn't even bother to scold him and just ran away.

But he found that his legs were out of his control, as if they were nailed in, and he was still standing in the same place.

I can't move? What's going on? Has Lin Qi taken away my control of my body?

Ignoring Yukinoshita Yukino who was anxiously fighting for control of her body, Lin Qi stared at Hikigaya Hachiman who was gritting his teeth and breathing heavily: "What's wrong? Didn't you say you would go through fire and water without hesitation?"

"It's just a broken arm. When fighting a cursed spirit, you have to risk your life." The girl's cracked mouth revealed a vicious smile, "If you can't even control the cursed power, then die here."

It was as if the god of death was whispering in his ear. Hikigaya Hachiman felt cold all over, and even the pain from his broken arm became a little numb.

It's so scary, if I can't do it, this guy will really let me die from excessive blood loss.

The reason why he felt cold was not only because of Lin Qi's threatening words, but also because the continuous loss of blood took away the body's temperature. A pool of scarlet blood accumulated under him, and the strong smell of blood filled the small activity classroom.

The strong desire to survive gradually calmed Hikigaya Hachiman down. The rapid secretion of adrenaline had already soaked his back with cold sweat, and it also reduced the pain from the wound of his broken arm. He felt what Lin Qi said, the cursed power flowing in his body.

As an ordinary person who had never come into contact with a curse, Hikigaya Hachiman didn't know how to control the cursed energy. He simply relied on his subconscious instinct to grasp the cursed energy in his hands naturally like grabbing a water bottle.

The next moment, the materialized cursed energy rose like a flame in his only remaining left fist. The color of the cursed energy filled with negative emotions was deeper than the red of the flame itself, just like the pool of blood beneath him.

"Haha, if you want to do it, you can do it!" Lin Qi laughed, "Use this curse power to attack me now!"

Attack? How to do it? Is this tutorial progressing too fast?

While distracting himself by complaining about Lin Qi's Spartan hell teaching method in his heart, Hikigaya Hachiman stood up by rubbing against the wall.

Anyway, the only attack I can do now is punching.

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth, staggered towards Yukinoshita Yukino, and then swung his fist filled with cursed power.

"Wait, what did you do...!?" Yukinoshita Yukino found that she could control her body again, but Hikigaya Hachiman with a ferocious face had already approached her.

After taking two steps back and realizing she couldn't dodge, the girl subconsciously used her family's Aikido to block Hikigaya's punch, then turned around and threw him out.

However, the moment Hikigaya Hachiman was thrown out, Yukinoshita Yukino discovered something was wrong.

My strength is too great! ?

The window glass was smashed, and a figure flew out and fell directly from the fourth floor of the special building.

what?

After Hikigaya Hachiman was blocked by Yukinoshita Yukino with Aikido, he felt dizzy before he could react. When he came to his senses, he found himself already in mid-air.

Huh? Am I going to die? I didn't die from excessive blood loss, but from falling from a building?

He looked at the sky dyed red by the sunset, his mind was blank, and he had no sense of the reality that he was about to die.

The next second, he saw another figure jumping out of the window of the service department and approaching him rapidly.

Is this true? This is the fourth floor of a special building.

Lin Qi controlled Yukinoshita Yukino's body, grabbed Hikigaya Hachiman who was still in a daze in mid-air, and then landed steadily on the ground.

Lin Qi let go of the hand that was holding Hikigaya Hachiman's belt, and the latter fell to the ground.

He subconsciously stretched out his hands to support the ground, and the feeling of security with his feet on solid ground made the dead-eyed boy breathe a sigh of relief - falling from a height of twelve meters on the fourth floor was still too exciting for a high school student.

No, wait...

"Is my right hand still there?"

Hikigaya Hachiman stared blankly at his intact right hand and subconsciously clenched it twice, as if the previous broken hand was just a nightmare.

……

……

Chapter 11: Komachi, My Komachi

The phantom pain in his right shoulder reminded him that having his right hand cut off by Uncle Lin Qi was not a nightmare, but a reality that had already happened.

Regeneration of severed limbs, this kind of thing really exists...

[My right hand... has grown back!?] Yukinoshita Yukino cried out in disbelief in her heart.

"Reversal ritual." Lin Qi seemed to have heard what Hikigaya Hachiman was thinking, and also explained to Yukinoshita Yukino, "Cursed power is negative energy. It can be used to strengthen the body but cannot regenerate it. So we need to stack negative energy, and two negatives equal a positive to generate positive energy to heal ourselves."

"As long as your brain isn't damaged or your head isn't chopped off, you can be saved." Lin Qi smiled frivolously, "You won't die even if you're cut in half."

"Is this true..." Hikigaya Hachiman slightly widened his eyes. Just the regeneration of a severed limb was enough to shock him. Could even a cut in the waist be healed? Wasn't it too difficult for a sorcerer to die?

As if she had read his mind, Lin Qi shrugged and said, "It's easy to say, but it's not that easy to do. Only a few sorcerers can do it, but it's very simple for curse spirits."

"Okay, let's stop talking. Yukinoshita is making trouble." After Lin Qi finished speaking, she quickly disappeared, blocking out the voice of Yukinoshita Yukino.

Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly noticed that the girl's face did not show any black lines indicating Lin Qi's possession, but only had four eyes open.

After Lin Qi dived, the frivolous expression on Yukinoshita Yukino's face disappeared, and was replaced by a deeply frown, making her look very unhappy.

What on earth was that guy thinking!? He actually did such a mess in school, what if others saw him? And that kind of crazy teaching method, even if it can be cured, it is too inhumane to stimulate potential by putting people to death!

And after doing all this, this guy ran away, leaving me to clean up his mess. No matter how I cried out in my heart, there was no response.

You can't hear any scolding, and you can't see anyone being beaten. It's really disgusting.

What worries her even more is that Lin Qi can now seize control of her body even without her permission. Saying that she can take back control of her body at any time is a complete lie to make her let down her guard!

Without a means of balance, I don’t know what that hateful guy will do with his body in the future.

Yukinoshita Yukino pinched her brows with a headache, then looked up at Hikigaya Hachiman and said apologetically: "I'm so sorry, I didn't know I was so strong all of a sudden, and I didn't expect Lin Qi to actually..."

"Uh, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I'm not dead, and my severed hand has grown back, exactly the same as the original one." As if he didn't expect Yukinoshita Yukino to apologize to him, Hikigaya Hachiman was stunned for a moment before responding, "And this is not your fault, you don't need to apologize to me."

As for asking Uncle Lin Qi to apologize to him, Hikigaya Hachiman didn't even dare to think about it.

"But even if the wound has healed, the pain when it was injured is not fake, right?" Yukinoshita Yukino recalled the scene of Hikigaya Hachiman wailing in pain when his arm was cut off, and she said softly with some reluctance.

"But thanks to that, I seem to have successfully mastered the cursed energy now." Hikigaya Hachiman said, raising his right fist and concentrating the cursed energy on his fist according to the feeling of mobilizing the cursed energy before!

"..."

"..."

Nothing happened.

"Eh? That's clearly how you used it before?" Hikigaya Hachiman looked embarrassed. He should have known better than to say such nice things.

"There must be something wrong with some link. Lin Qijun doesn't seem to be willing to come out to answer." Yukinoshita Yukino said. She knew that Hikigaya Hachiman had succeeded before. After all, he was almost hit by a fist covered with cursed energy. "Anyway, let's go back first."

However, when the two returned to the service club, Yukinoshita Yukino realized that she was angry too early.

The originally tidy classroom became a mess, the windows were broken, glass fragments were scattered all over the floor, the blood of Hikigaya Hachiman was on the ground, and even the walls were dragged with blood.

It looked like a broken arm from a horror movie set, lying alone in the shadows.

The strong smell of blood filled the air. As soon as they stepped into the activity classroom surrounded by curtains, Yukinoshita Yukino almost vomited, and Hikigaya Hachiman also felt very uncomfortable.

He looked at his severed hand with mixed feelings, not knowing what expression he should put on: "This... how should I deal with it?"

Yukinoshita Yukino was also a little dumbfounded. Although she had knowledge in various fields and could be called the Encyclopedia of Snow, the method of dealing with human severed limbs and hiding corpses was indeed a blind spot in her knowledge.

Lin Qi, who was diving and peeking at the screen, looked at the two people who were at a loss. While sighing at her kindness, she once again forcefully seized control of Yukinoshita Yukino's body, lit a fire and helped deal with Hikigaya's broken limbs.

Yukinoshita Yukino raised her hand uncontrollably and snapped her fingers before she regained her freedom of movement. She said angrily, "You took control of my body without my consent!"

"I was trying to help you out of kindness but you were so mean to me. You have no conscience. Yukinoshita is a bad person~" Lin Qi's mouth appeared on her cheek, pretending to be aggrieved and said.

"This is what you did!" His pretentiously gentle tone gave Yukinoshita Yukino goosebumps.

Lin Qi pretended not to hear and turned to Hikigaya Hachiman and said, "Think more about the nature of cursed power, and you will know why you failed just now. It is not that easy to truly master cursed power, but she is much better than Yukinoshita. After all, she has not succeeded yet."

After saying that, he dived again, leaving Yukinoshita Yukino to blush with anger.

Skillfully applying the "one push and one lift" technique, Lin Qi successfully raised the girl's blood pressure. When it comes to breaking Yukinoshita Yukino's defense, Lin Qi is the best.

There is no other way. When the old man’s life is too boring, he can only amuse the host to entertain himself.

"Um..." Hikigaya Hachiman raised his hands in a French military salute, indicating that it had nothing to do with him.

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed, "I don't care, he's telling the truth."

You really don't care? I think you almost broke your back teeth just now.

Hikigaya Hachiman muttered silently in his heart.

"Anyway, let's clean this place up first. As for the broken window, we can only cover it with curtains. I will order the same window style and install it on Saturday."

"I see."

The two of them took great effort and finally cleaned up the service club before the school security started to chase people away.

"Then I'll leave first."

Hikigaya Hachiman said goodbye to Yukinoshita Yukino at the school gate and rode his bicycle back home.

When he stood at the door of his house, he inexplicably felt as if he was in another world.

I pushed open the door and went to the entrance to change into slippers. When a middle school girl heard the door open, she popped her head out from behind the living room wall and said, "Welcome back. Why are you here so late today?"

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at Hikigaya Komachi, who was wearing an apron and seemed to be preparing dinner. He was stunned for a moment and then couldn't help but shed tears of emotion.

Ah, it's my lovely sister Komachi!

"What about 'I'm back'? It's so disgusting for a brother to cry in front of his sister as soon as he gets home." Komachi made a disgusted face, but even so, in Hikigaya Hachiman's eyes, she was still very cute, as if there was an angel's light shining behind her.

"What happened?" Komachi asked.

"No, nothing... I'm back."

After experiencing a series of events including being frightened by the cursed spirit, threatened by Lin Qi, having his arm cut off, and being thrown down from the fourth floor by Yukinoshita, Hikigaya Hachiman smiled with relief at his sister.

……

Chapter 12: A Small Cooking

"Ah~"

Hikigaya Hachiman lay in the bathtub and groaned subconsciously.

As the hot water soaks the body, the pores all over the body open up, releasing the fatigue accumulated throughout the day.

Even Komachi, who was studying in the living room, heard the noise he made and said in surprise, "Oh my, this is really rare. My brother actually made the tired noise that only he would make after working all day."

"Don't worry about it." Hikigaya Hachiman covered his face with a hot towel and muttered.

I didn't have any work to do, but I was really tired, not only physically but also mentally.

[Think more about the nature of cursed power, and you will know why you failed just now. ]

Recalling what Uncle Lin Qi had said in his mind, the relaxed Hikigaya Hachiman began to think subconsciously.

The essence of cursed power is the energy born from human negative emotions. Was the reason I was successful the first time because my heart was full of negative emotions at that time?
