Chapter 21: Fist of the Courts
Through the cinema's unique dark-lit corridor, Yahara and his party came to the section near the safety staircase.
With the experience of the last time, Yahara clearly saw the footprints stretching outward on the ground, while Knotweed Yuhito was confused and watched Yahara and Nanami staring at the ground without leaving a trace of dust, and was a little puzzled.
After explaining to him what the mana remnant was, Knotweed Yuhito finally saw the footprints on the ground clearly, and was about to happily share them with Yahara when Nanami Kento poured a basin of cold water:
"It's only a matter of perceiving the breath before you see it, you're still too tender."
Yahara pulled the depressed knotweed Yuhito: "Forget it, experience is accumulated little by little." ”
After the episode ended, several people walked into the spiraling staircase, and Knotweed Yuhito looked around at the dead corner and asked Nanami Kento, "Didn't the surveillance camera capture it?" ”
Nanami's tone was as flat as ever: "In addition to the victim, there is also a teenager, and the identification will be handed over to the police, so we just need to be patient." ”
Yahara sighed at the reliability and experience of Kento Nanami, who is worthy of the maturity of stepping into society... Workers.
Walking out of the theater, Yahara looked up sharply to find a spell spirit with slender limbs, twisted torso, and bulging teeth in front of him, which looked like the sci-fi horror movie "Alien" he had seen before.
Without saying a word, Knotweed Yuhito lowered his position and was about to rush over, when an arm with four buttons tied to the cuff stopped him: "Knotweed-kun, leave this one to me, you and Yahara-kun go and clean up the other one." ”
Looking back at the exposed part of the limbs on the wall, a spell spirit that looked like aloe vera unconsciously clapped his hands: "Okay, good~awesome~ laundry detergent." ”
Nanami Kenren then explained: "If you can't deal with it, you can call me, after all, I am an adult, you are a child, and I have the obligation to protect you first." ”
Full of responsibility permeated from the words in his mouth, and a tall image of sticking to the bottom line and fulfilling his duties was presented in the eyes of Yahara.
Knotweed Yuhito thought that he was being looked down upon, and retorted dissatisfiedly: "I'm not a child anymore!" ”
Unhurriedly unbuttoning his suit, Nanami Kento groped out a blunt knife wrapped in a white bandage without a blade from his arms: "Although you have had extraordinary experiences, that doesn't mean you're an adult." ”
"More and more hair is falling out of the pillow, and the bread you like is disappearing from the convenience store, and these little despairs are piling up to make people grow up."
Looking up at the clouds floating freely, the freedom without sorrow is really enviable.
took out the blunt knife and was not in a hurry to clean up the spell spirit, but Nanami Kento kept saying his technique like a cannon: "7:3, no matter what kind of opponent I can forcibly create weakness in this ratio." ”
Hitting the demarcation point triggers an effective attack, so even if the opponent is taller than me, I can still deal some damage. ”
The verbose words distracted the attention of Knotweed Yuhito, and he stared back and forth at the two spell spirits, not knowing what to do, and finally made up his mind: "Yahara, you observe the situation on Mr. Nanami's side, this spell spirit should test my new move." ”
Yahara gestured with a gesture that was fine, picked a suitable distance to meet the two sides in time, and waited by the side.
Without further ado, Knotweed Yuhito lowered his body in a squatting posture, his fists stretched forward to gather a fierce and condensed mana, and the color became more profound.
At the same time, his temperament improved sharply, and he threw a punch like a thunderbolt with an indomitable murderous aura!
After the impact of the strong flesh, it was a second blow formed by the mana, and the spell spirit that had just survived the first blow kept screaming until it fell to the ground.
Seeing this blow of Knotweed Yuhito, Yahara was very envious in his heart, although he had such an anti-heaven technique as logical distortion, but he was far from being intuitively handsome in terms of viewing.
Who doesn't have a Form 2 period where they imagine they can perform magical skills?
Kento Nanami, who had long since finished the battle, strode over, waving the blunt knife in his hand to understand the spell spirit. Suddenly, a ticking watch prompt made him chuckle in his heart, and a terrifying thought came to him.
took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the spell spirit lying on the ground, and Kento Nanami's pupils contracted sharply: "Knotweed-kun!" Don't do it yet! ”
"What's wrong?" Yuhito, who swung his fist into the air, asked puzzledly. Yahara, who is familiar with the plot, also leans over, ready to wait for Kento Nanami's explanation.
Handing the photograph to Knotweed and Yahara, Nanami Kento's face was solemn: "You guys are mentally prepared for the possibility of attacking us... Not a spell spirit, but... Living! ”
......
On the other side of the phone, there was a crisp and gentle voice from the family: "It's indeed a living person, but the hands and feet around the brain stem will appear to be high in magic and confusion..."
Suddenly, Iiri mentioned Knotweed Yuhito: "Knotweed-kun, don't feel guilty, the cause of death of those people was shock caused by body modification, not you killed them." ”
But Knotweed Yuhito didn't seem to be able to accept this and fell into silence.
Yahara, who was also disgusted, knew who the murderer was, a super-grade spell spirit born from the hatred and fear of people for people, and the only spell spirit he currently had a strong killing intent for.
In any case, the mission aside, I must save Shunhei Yoshino this time!
Nanami's keen intuition sensed the anger of the two children in front of him, and he realized that these two people would be genuinely angry for others, and his brows relaxed a little.
"Those filths are bait, we may be lured through, this is a difficult opponent to be underestimated..."
Kento Nanami stood up and announced loudly, "Get motivated!" Yahara and Knotweed Yuhito shouted in unison, "Yes!" ”
In the activity room of the High School of Spells, the three of them and Ijichi, who had met twice, were in front of a dazzling map.
Sketches are drawn on the map, and every now and then the emphasis is circled, as if to lock on a certain location.
"This is a cruelty report submitted by the window, sorting out the victims who have recently disappeared or died mysteriously, and can lock down the prisoner's stronghold to a certain extent." Kento Nanami is still wearing a neat and straight suit, and introduces the information he has obtained so far.
"So you're going to sneak in?" Knotweed Yuhito tried to ask.
"No, the accuracy is not certain, and I need to investigate further. During this time, you and Yahara-kun go to find Shunhei Yoshino, a teenager who is also in the cinema. Deftly avoiding the key point, Kento Nanami threw out another point that attracted the attention of Knotweed Yuhito.
And Yahara understands that he wants to clean up the prisoners by himself, as an adult.
At this time, Yahara was also thinking about finding a reason to go with Kento Nanami to annihilate the spell spirit? Or do you follow the order to find Shunhei Yoshino with Knotweed Yuhito?
It's a bit difficult.
