Chapter 49: People with Strange Personalities
Dio stood on the top of the steps, looking down at Yuriko and Kurumi below.
It's a pity that Jin Shining wasn't there, otherwise a die-hard chef competition would be held here.
The three people in front of him are undoubtedly characters with very distinct personalities. There is a saying that when people with the most different personalities meet, they either become the closest friends or the most mutually exclusive enemies.
Looking at Yuriko's angry expression, you can see that it is clear that they do not deal with each other.
"You guy, I'll make you pay!" Yuriko lifted her foot and slammed it, and a surge of force struck Dio at the top of the steps.
However, it was as if the other party had teleported, and suddenly appeared on the upper steps, easily dodging Yuriko's attack. At the same time, Yuriko's abdomen suddenly received an invisible blow and hit the wall next to the steps. However, after the impact, Yuriko did not suffer any damage, but bounced back lightly.
"Damn. I've turned on the vector reflection of my whole body. Could it be that this guy is attacking me with the mysterious power of another world? Yuriko clutched her abdomen and regained her footing on the stairs.
I remember seeing a similar ability in the information room of the academy before. Is it a stand-in attack? Yuriko thought about it. The ability to keep them going down the stairs before seems to be related to the suspension of time. After pausing time, use a stand-in to move both of them down a few steps, and then repeat the same thing.
"Come to think of it, you're boring." Yuriko raised her eyebrows and said to Dio on the top of the broken stairs.
"Hmph. It's just a pastime when you're bored. Dio said nonchalantly.
In his memory, when he sank to the bottom of the water, an unknown consciousness invaded Dio's brain and took control of his body instead of him, but that consciousness only existed for a day before it was swallowed up by Dio's own powerful willpower. For this reason, Dio himself obtained all the memories of that consciousness. Learned the truth of this world.
"I once said I wanted to be on top of the world. Now it seems that my ambitions are still too small. I want to be a being who stands above all dimensions! Dior said with a surging mood.
Yuriko complained to the Kurumi next to her: "No wonder the academy refuses to let pure villains join the academy." The first instinct of those guys when they learned the truth must have been to conquer the whole plane. ”
"Are you interested in becoming my subordinate? Let's conquer the world together! What the other two didn't expect was that Dior actually started digging into the wall.
"Not interested. It's enough for me to be able to protect one person. Yuriko yawned.
"I have only one wish, and that is to go back to the past in my own world and redeem those tragedies. Nothing else could be asked for from this. Kurumi said indifferently.
Dior's personality is attractive. But for these two people seems to have had little effect. After all, all three of them can be said to be extremely weird guys. Everyone has their own unique beliefs.
"Hmph. That's a pity. Dio retracted his inviting hand, his eyes sharpened, "In that case, then you will be the stepping stone for my first step in conquering this world!" ”
Dio's body didn't move, but Yuriko's invisible stand-in attacked Yuriko.
"Only a stand-in can defeat a stand-in, you have no chance of winning!" Dio manipulated his stand-in "World" to attack the surface of Yuriko's body, but the moment it touched the skin, he received an extremely powerful repulsion.
At the same time, there was a pain in Dior's own arm.
"Actually defended off the attack of the stand-in?" Seeing Yuriko still standing there like a nobody, Dio was a little surprised.
"I've studied the mystical powers of other worlds a long time ago. Understanding how these mysterious forces work, I changed the calculation formula in my head just now. No matter what the ability is, as long as it is directional, even stand-in attacks can be reflected! Yuriko pointed to her brain, then pushed her hands forward, and the air currents swept towards Dio again with a furious force.
As long as you maintain a reflex state, you can't touch yourself even if you can pause for time. In this way, you can attack with impunity!
"Humph!" Dio snorted coldly and took advantage of the pause to dodge Yuriko's attack. Then he took out the various cooking knives he had collected in the Red Devil Pavilion from the inside of his clothes and threw them at the two of them.
When the knife leaves Dior's hands, it will gradually enter a state of stopping, and when it is only a fraction of a minute away from the two people, the knife will stop. At the same time, the 9-second limit ended, and the knife began to move again.
The knife thrown at Yuriko was easily ejected, but the knife thrown at Kurumi was plunged deep into her head. The whole person fell limply to the ground and gradually disappeared.
"Your companion is so vulnerable." Dio scoffed.
Yuriko smiled slightly, "I suggest you don't underestimate her too much, although the operating principle is different, her ability is also related to time." ”
"It's been a long time since you've been killed...... Hee-hee-hee. As many voices sounded, Dio realized that before he knew it, there were many more madmen around him.
Eight bullets, which make a reappearance of their own past. With this ability, Kurumi can replicate many of his past timelines, thus achieving a sense of immortality.
Numerous guns were pointed at Dior, and the moment the bullet fired, he stopped dodging the bullet when it was fired again. Several knives are thrown, and several Mad Three are eliminated again.
The muzzle of the gun was aimed at him, and a bullet was fired. Kurumi's own time flow is terrifyingly fast. Dio could only stop again between a breath or two, and by this time the muzzle of the gun was already aimed at him.
The Seven Bullets were fired at Dio, and the time of the Dio himself who was hit by the bullet came to a standstill.
"You can also taste the taste of time-stopping!" Yuriko stomped her foot, and a ferocious force struck Dio.
The effect of the Seven Bullets ended, and Dio's own time began to run again, and he slammed into the wall under Yuriko's previous attack. Suddenly, the wall behind him was crushed into a pile of powder.
"It's unbelievable...... Do you have the same time-stop ability as me? Dio crawled out of the rubble of the wall, a slight look of surprise on his face.
PS: Explanation that Yuriko can reflect a stand-in. In the original Demon Forbidden, one side can refract magic into light waves. The reason why you can't reflect is only because of a lack of understanding of the principles of magic. The academy provides a large amount of data on abilities from other worlds (described in the previous chapters), and as long as it is thoroughly analyzed, even mystical forces can be refracted as long as they are directional. The stand-in, the embodiment of life energy, must have a direction in its actions, so it can reflect the attacks of the stand-in itself, but it cannot reflect the "ability" that the stand-in possesses.
