"Ah, Principal Yamo is as heartless as ever... But Emiya-kun, you will definitely help me, right?"

"will not."

Emiya's answer was quite straightforward and decisive.

He was the one who called others over to spar, but he was also the one who was punished and asked others to help clean up the battlefield... Even an honest person would not be bullied like this, right?

Moreover, Emiya felt that Gojo Satoru needed to suffer more blows before he could control his exaggerated emotions a little.

“So ruthless?!!”

Gojo Satoru tried to gain Emiya's sympathy by acting aggrieved, but unfortunately it was of no use.

So far, there are only two people who have been able to gain Emiya's favor by doing this.

After realizing that this didn't work, Gojo Satoru instantly changed his attitude and asked about another thing he was curious about.

"But Emiya-kun, you actually mentioned your sister just now. That's a bit strange... Is she cute?"

Emiya recalled Miyu's appearance and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Yeah, it's cute."

"Is that so... Then where is she now? Let me see her too, how about that?"

Gojo Satoru's tone and expression seemed a bit perverted rather than expectant.

Seeing this guy's appearance, Emiya couldn't help showing a look of disgust, but he still replied along with the other party's words: "Right now, he should be living a happy life in a certain world."

Although he also wants to be with Miyu forever, as long as she is happy, Emiya will be very happy.

"......Eh?"

But how can such an answer prevent Gojo Satoru from thinking in a wrong direction?

"I see, I understand..."

The arrogant Gojo Satoru also lowered his head.

"Wait, what's with that expression on your face? She's really not here!"

"I understand, I understand. If you really lack family, it's not impossible for me to play a role."

"How about just being your brother?"

Looking at Gojo Satoru's expression, he seemed to be looking forward to this kind of role-playing.

"Go away!!!"

--------

After Gojo Satoru said goodbye and said he would continue to carry out the commission, Emiya received a call from Nanami Kento.

Because Emiya has been working intensively to exorcise the first-level cursed spirit, the task of finding the murderer was assigned to Nanami Kento by the High School.

Later, Emiya also asked him to do this, so after finally finding the clue, Nanami Kento informed him immediately -

"The recent disappearances and mysterious deaths have all been compiled into a scrap report by the [Window], which can help pinpoint the criminal's base to a certain extent."

In a room somewhere, Kento Nanami marked the locations where the victims appeared in various corners of the map, and then placed a photo of a young boy near a certain mark.

"This is Junpei Yoshino, the only surviving teenager from the multiple incidents. He attended the same high school as the victim."

"Judging from the surveillance footage and his behavior, the possibility that he's a curse caster is very low, but due to his relationship with the victim, we can't rule him out... But don't worry, students from the technical college are already investigating him."

Nanami Kento pushed his glasses up, stared at Emiya Shikari carefully for a moment, and finally decided to tell him the truth.

The time since they met was short after all. Nanami Kento still considered Emiya a junior and a child, but judging by his performance in exorcising cursed spirits, he had clearly become a master sorcerer.

Maybe he is even stronger than this guy who claims to be his senior.

"But to a certain extent, the criminal's location has actually been determined."

"But just like the situation you encountered initially, the criminal could have left the scene without leaving any trace if they wanted to... They're still trying to lure us."

"So the risk is very high, and it's possible we might be ambushed. Even so, Emiya, will you come along?"

After being assigned to Nanami Kento, this commission can be said to have no compulsory relationship with Emiya, and there is no need to go out of his way to risk facing that guy.

But if such a question was asked to Emiya, it would be the same as not asking at all.

"Yeah, of course."

Emiya nodded firmly.

Volume 1: Chapter 48 The human soul is amazing, isn’t it!

"Emiya, starting with the victim you first discovered, the culprit has actually caused more than a dozen cases of disappearances or body modifications, all of which now leave behind conspicuous remains."

"After counting, we've confirmed a total of 108 victims, 72 of whom are still missing. Only 36 victims have left behind their remains, which have been modified."

"Perhaps to the prisoners, they are just the products of failed reformation..."

On the way to the destination, Nanami Kento did not forget to fulfill his duty and told Emiya the overall course of the incident.

He knew that such a truth might make Emiya angry, but the other party who decided to get involved did have the right to know.

And such a thing made not only Emiya but even Nanami Kento extremely angry.

Regardless of whether the criminal was a cursed spirit or a cursed person, Nanami Kento felt that instead of deliberately capturing him alive to find out something, it would be better to kill that scum directly.

"There are so many victims, that kind of guy..."

Over a hundred victims, each one of them underwent a transformation that was incredibly painful just to think about...

No matter what, Emiya couldn't think of any reason to let that guy go.

"It's natural to feel angry. But that's why we should be extremely vigilant in our next actions."

"We've arrived at the criminal's hiding place."

After being driven to a nearby location by Ijichi and then getting out of the car and walking for a distance, the two arrived at their destination.

Wow—wow—wow—

It was raining heavily in the sky at this time. The rain kept hitting the mossy ground and then flowed into the drainage system in front along the grooves.

The entrance to the tunnel was quite large. The government had originally built the city's sewer system to this size to prevent flooding during heavy rains, but the entrance's defenses had been violently destroyed.

Each of the steel fences that made up the protection was as thick as an arm, but the holes in the damaged parts looked as if they had been hit by some huge object, and the entire fence was bent inward.

This is obviously not a trace that could be caused by humans.

Emiya and Nanami Kento looked at each other, then they both took out their weapons and began to walk cautiously into the passage.

For such a huge city, its sewage system cannot be simply described as complex.

It is no exaggeration to say that you can reach any place in the city by relying on the intricate roads and pipelines, but you will probably get lost even if you have a map.

And although the pipelines are complicated, there are not too many tunnels that can accommodate normal human passage.

Although there are definitely no signposts to show the way in a place like this, Emiya and Nanami Tateto just need to follow the obscene trail.

As for the lighting system, emergency lights everywhere are sufficient.

pat-

The two of them stopped until they came to a fork in the road.

Because there had been only one trace of the filth in front of him, it suddenly split into two and entered different forks in the road.

"It seems that the criminal doesn't want to face us at the same time... or he wants to face one of us alone."

"However, I think it's more likely that they're targeting you, Emiya."

Nanami Kento turned his head and analyzed the situation seriously, "At this moment, acting together is the safest course of action. However, the chances of the criminal not knowing we're coming are slim, so if we don't follow his lead, there's a good chance he'll abandon the conflict and avoid us."

Most importantly, Nanami Kento didn't know why the criminal would guide them in such a flawed method, so he had no way to further judge the other party's intentions.

"Neither you nor I are afraid of facing the criminal behind us if we act alone, so my suggestion is to split up. If one side encounters the criminal, the other side can at least arrive in a short time."

"However, your opinion on how to make the decision is also very important, Emiya."

It was precisely because he was aroused to a certain extent of anger, and he knew very clearly that the reason they were able to find him now was because of the clues deliberately left by the other party, so even the usually steady Nanami Kento was unwilling to give up the opportunity.

If we allow such a dangerous guy to continue to do evil, who knows how many people will be killed.

Emiya knew this clearly, so he agreed to the other party's proposal without hesitation.

"Let's do it the way Nanami-senpai does. We can't let go of the chance to catch that guy."

"very good."

Nanami Kento nodded, then took the lead and walked into the darker passage on the left.

"Remember, notify us as soon as you encounter the enemy. No matter what the situation, your own safety must be your priority."

As the words fell, Nanami Kento's figure completely disappeared in the shadow of the passage.

"As expected, Nanami-senpai is still the same."

Emiya sighed slightly and walked into another relatively brighter but dimly lit fork in the road.

After walking along this long tunnel for several dozen minutes, they found nothing. Even Emiya was a little tired after such a long period of intense concentration.

The dark tunnel where you can't see where you are coming from or where you are going can really drive people crazy.

"Uh... uh..."

Fortunately, just as Emiya began to suspect that the real murderer hiding in the dark was simply teasing them, a sound similar to shouting suddenly came from behind a corner ahead.

Sensing something was wrong, Emiya didn't retreat, but immediately rushed around the corner, and successfully saw the true situation in the shadows under the dim light.

It was a monster of terrifying size.

Its entire body was expanding in an exaggerated manner, and the swollen flesh was even pressing tightly against the wall. Under the pressure, it took on an irregular shape and a dark purple interior.

The scene looked like a whole piece of meat was forced into a jar that was a size smaller than it.

"What... is this?"

Just as Emiya subconsciously asked this question, a strange voice behind him answered him.

"Needless to say? Of course it's human."

"This is an experiment to test how big humans can become."

"Originally, both the body and soul were only so tiny, yet after undergoing transformation, they grew to such a gigantic size. Isn't that amazing?"

"But the souls of ordinary humans are still too fragile. Growth to this extent is already the limit..."

"Oh, that's a shame, isn't it?"

"......"

This thing, it's sighing for something!!!

Volume 1: Remarks on the launch!

When I first started writing it, I thought this book would be a flop, but now it seems to be doing pretty well... Thank you everyone!

Now that the old book is almost finished, the updates for the new book should be better. I was so tired after writing 8,000 words every day last month (sad)

If you have any good ideas, you can comment here and I will consider whether to add them based on the plot.

Don’t worry about whether I will postpone it, because as long as everyone is willing to read it, I will write it until the end!

There will be about five or six chapters tomorrow?

Please subscribe, please order first, wow QAQ

And thank you all again!!!

Volume 1: Chapter 49 [Transformation through Inaction]

Emiya suddenly turned his head to look to the side, and saw the figure gradually revealing its true face from the shadows.

Behind that exaggerated and somewhat nonchalant voice was a young man with an exceptionally pale complexion and sutures inserted all over his body.

He wore a black long coat with a grid pattern on the upper body and black trousers on the lower body... Just like his expression and voice, he was quite exaggerated.

Especially this gangster-like appearance, which looks exactly like a certain guy.
