In the world of the Demon Dao, excellent qualifications are both a curse and a curse that can help the owner become a first-class talent.

Demonic nature will also attract demonic nature. Prominent people who stay out of the way are bound to invite the same anomalous experiences.

Because that talent itself is equivalent to a spell, it will be caught in all kinds of strange events due to its own anomaly.

This is beyond the control of his own will. There is only one way to deal with this fate, to consciously step out of the way yourself.

And if you don't have the luck to contact and understand the Demon Dao, as this talent grows and explodes, the inhuman feeling will become heavier and heavier, until it burns itself to the ground.

For the existence of such anomalies, magicians generally use this kind of title to describe each other.

- Superpowers.

Guanbuzi City.

Even after the New Year, the city is still very ordinary, with no superfluous noise, only a sense of decay and tranquility.

Compared to the thriving Fuyuki City, this place is more in line with the regular appearance of this island city, there is no suitable spiritual vein, and it is not like the Tosaka family, which has been recognized as a territory by the Magic Association and is responsible for managing the city.

Because of this relaxed environment, although there is nothing special on the outside, there are a considerable number of anomalous people gathered in this city.

And under the dim pillar of light of the street lamp, in the misty and humid air, through the light, you can also see the traces of rain.

In such a bleak and cold environment, although you can admire the silhouette of the city in the rain and the silhouette of the busy traffic, the tired pedestrians on the street obviously do not have such a relaxed mood.

Amid the cacophony of cars rubbing against the slippery ground, figures mingled between the glowing residential areas and the bright lights of the streets.

The weather in the middle of the night is unusually cold, and even more so in the bleak atmosphere added by the slight light rain, even if you are holding an umbrella and listening to the sound of the fine rain and the surface of the umbrella colliding, you will still feel that the biting chill is flowing into the body little by little along the gap in the clothes.

Because of this, the young man who admires the rain curtain through the glass and sipps the hot coffee in his hand is particularly eye-catching.

"Customers, we also sell umbrellas in our store."

The red-faced female clerk walked out of the counter and whispered to remind the young man who was leaning in the shadows outside the store, and although the shadows obscured his appearance, it was clear from the vague outline that he was not very old.

After hearing the words of the female clerk, he turned his head consciously.

"Thank you for your kindness, but the rain is about to stop."

Obviously, the rain was an accident that the weather forecast did not warn of, but the young man's tone was quite determined.

He threw away the coffee cup in his hand, and without waiting for the female clerk's response, he walked straight out of the eaves sheltered from the rain.

And with his actions, the rain silk also stopped abruptly as if the string had been broken.

The female clerk who was stunned in place couldn't even turn her head and watch the young man leave, she just froze in place, her mind was full of the strange eyes dyed with a faint layer of scarlet, just staring, as if her soul was about to be sucked in.

——

"Qili won't lie to me, will you...... Even though I knew my ritual would be troublesome, the preconditions were a bit excessive......"

Walking in the night, the young man grunted dissatisfiedly, but there was not the slightest anxiety in his tone.

Because for him now, there are only a few things in this world that can really make him really care about it.

Roland, who had just returned from the Earth Error World, had not had time to rest for a while, and immediately came to Guanbuzi City.

"And whether it's too early is now, the exact location is not clear."

Roland whispered to himself, after he came to Guanbuzi City, he didn't use the almighty Black Shadow Corps to deliberately look for anything, because this encounter itself was also part of the ritual.

And the aimless Roland simply took this as a good opportunity to visit the Holy Land, and began to enjoy this tour, wandering around.

The medieval fantasy style of the Earth Error World is certainly interesting, but it is the modern society that makes Roland feel more comfortable.

And, in Roland's impression, the city, although not as interesting as the Holy Grail War, would be ridiculous to say that it is unremarkable.

Aside from the existing anomalies, the number of magicians in this city may not be large, but the quality is high.

Just to be eligible for the official wanted list of the Magic Association, there is more than one person designated by the seal.

Although I don't think that the highest-ranking puppet envoy is the first in line with the requirements of his ritual, if he encounters it, Roland doesn't mind touching it, anyway, the encounter itself is also an indispensable part of the journey.

Moreover, even if something really happens, it will never be you who suffers.

With this in mind, Roland wandered around the streets casually, gradually dissociating himself from the bustling crowd, and although he found nothing during the day, he was not annoyed.

For the world, everyone's weight is different, in this world, there will always be some favored people, they are just like the existence of the protagonist in the story described in their own lives, and a certain choice made at a key node will directly cause the branch of the world.

While it would certainly be an exaggeration to say that they are sufficient to determine the course of the world itself, it cannot be denied that the actions of those people, and even their ideas, cause a distorted radiation to the world.

Compared with the original self, the weight of Roland's own existence is enough to create enough gravity in this material world.

This gravitational pull is far more terrifying than when he was resurrected as a holy lord, and his actions, his thoughts, and his goals will unconsciously pull everything around him into this frenzy that cannot be turned back.

And for this reason, the setting of 'there will be mutual attraction between the stand-in messengers' will also appear in Roland's body.

As he walked, Roland suddenly stopped and looked at the dark alley in front of him.

In the city, there are old buildings that no one cares about, and these deserted roads are everywhere, and there is nothing worth paying attention to.

But a strong instinct was urging him into the alley.

As if some invisible arrow was pointing ahead, Roland thoughtfully felt this invisible, yet real, power.

With every step he took, he was like a magnetic radar possessed by a migratory bird that never got lost, and he could clearly feel the shift between the place where the force was pointing and his position.

Regardless of the strength of the force, everyone in this world is entangled with this invisible force, limited by their own character and environment, some of them will deviate, some will be lost, and those who successfully find their position will be favored.

And this is also the 'encounter of fate.' ’

——

A girl with long dark purple hair and a junior high school uniform stood in place.

She looks very quiet, with a calm look in her eyes that does not match her age, and her petite face with upright facial features is very cute, but it has a delicate and sharp outline, and that delicate balance is very close to the beauty of the classical dolls in the window.

The girl's long hair poured straight down like a waterfall and draped behind her back, one on the left and one on the left and one on the right and one on the ear and hung down to her chest, symmetrical to each other.

The bangs on the forehead are also neatly trimmed, and at a glance it is reminiscent of a noble-born eldest lady.

Although the uniform style on the body is very conservative, because of the excellent physical development of the girl, it also has a somewhat attractive taste.

At this moment, the girl was stopping in the center of this secluded alley, calmly staring at the two frivolous young men in front of her.

"Hey, you've won the lottery, and you have this level of middle school students?"

The two young men who were deliberately blocking the passage of the alley glanced at each other, and the one standing behind the leader was the first to speak.

"It's going to get into trouble, she feels like a big lady, how could she come to such a place?"

But compared to the excited companions, the one in the lead was a little hesitant.

"It's okay, right, this kind of eldest lady is more afraid of threats than ordinary goods, right?"

The more decaying the environment, the easier it is for shadows to breed, and in today's environment, the existence of delinquent teenagers has become a commonplace phenomenon.

This group of social dregs, using obscene and despicable means, venting their dirty desires, coercion, intimidation and other rough and effective means have made them repeatedly succeed, and have played with many girls, after all, many families are already too busy to take care of themselves.

And because of the changes in the family, the girl who has not yet become familiar with the city and strayed into the alley has become their new prey.

"What's the matter?"

But as if she hadn't noticed her situation, the girl asked softly, and looked at the leading thug.

And the young man who had just had a desire because of the girl's figure subconsciously took a step back after looking at each other.

The abnormality in that empty pupil startled him.

That detached and indifferent gaze was like the stiff dolls he saw in the shop windows when he was a child, and to this day, the kind of thing is still a nightmare for many children.

This made the leader lose his interest all of a sudden, and under the scruples that already existed in his heart, he snorted unhappily, and did not continue to entangle the girl, and turned around and walked out of the alley.

"Hey ......"

The companion behind him pulled him unwillingly, and after getting no response, he reluctantly gave up his previous plan.

In a sense, the existence called Bad Boy is very similar to the monster named Goblin in Western Fantasy, and its courage increases proportionally to the number of companions.

And if you don't have the help of your peers, you can become very timid.

After calming down a little, he was unwilling to move his body, indeed, what can he do alone?

The girl's body is very weak and cannot resist their violence, but she will cry for help, she will struggle, and once she makes too much trouble and the consequences of the mistake are more serious, then the crime is completely different.

"Forget it, find a lone guy to knock on the punch."

Seeing that he couldn't do anything, he also scolded and followed behind the bad leader, turned around and left here.

But what the two bad people who left did not notice was that the girl still did not have any waves.

That's right, if it were an ordinary girl, she would probably do this, right?

Will resist, will struggle, but the girl is an anomaly.

Because of the many reasons caused by natural illnesses and abnormalities, she has cultivated a sense of alienation and estrangement from everything.

She has no interest in the world, no real sense of what it feels like to be alive.

If those two young people really dared to abuse her, I am afraid she would be powerless to resist, but fortunately, the established fate did not befall her.

But as long as the source of the tragedy is still there, this box of suffering will only wait for the day when it will be opened.

"Fortunately, I didn't delay much, otherwise I would have been late to go home today... It's going to bother mom. ”

Compared with the happiness of the rest of her life after the catastrophe, the regret of entering the alley by mistake at the beginning, what appeared in the girl's heart was an ordinary to a somewhat heterogeneous thought.

She made up her mind and walked forward, and then, around the corner of the crossroads, she stopped again.

"Gurgling ......"

The sound of rolling continued to expand in the secluded alley, and finally stopped in front of the maiden.

It was a head that had undergone a huge transformation, as if it had been attacked by a giant hammer, and the part of the face was directly deflated, and the head was disconnected from the body, and a mixture of brains and bodily fluids of various colors continued to flow out as it rolled.

It can be seen from the dyed hair of the other party that this is exactly the bad thing of the previous leader.

In less than a minute, he died in the most miserable form.

And the attendant who followed him, throwing a covetous look at him, was standing in place dumbfounded.

Obviously, his body and expression were completely stiffened by this great fear that he had never experienced before.

His trembling legs spoke of the last effort of his survival instinct, but he didn't take a single step except for the constant trembling of his whole body.

"The last time I encountered this was when I first got paid......

A tall young man walked into the alley, and said in a nostalgic tone, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

It seemed that his memories were more important than the tragic scene in front of him.

In the next instant, the bad body that had stayed there and didn't know how to move exploded completely, as if to vent his anger, his flesh and blood splattered everywhere, smearing the surrounding walls.

Then, the young man's ruby pupils looked at the girl.

Then he came to the maiden.

In the eyes of the girl who was watching, he was almost like he was teleporting, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared in place and appeared in front of her.

It was only at this time that she noticed that although there was a nightmare-like scene of sticky flesh and blood everywhere, the young man's body was clean and clean, without any superfluous traces.

Then, the butcher-like youth reached out to the girl's white hand, and the girl's face remained unmoved in the face of an object that could be turned into a flower of flesh and blood at the slightest thought.

She accepted her fate indifferently, didn't even respond, and gently closed her eyes before the hand touched her.

Can death give her a real sense of being alive?

Impossible.

The girl sighed silently.

But, very unexpectedly, the feeling of liberation of the mind did not come.

She opened her eyes and saw that the young man with her face was looking at her with satisfied eyes.

"Good, you're qualified."

The inhuman monster said this, smiling at the girl.

"—Do you believe in gravity?"
