My biological sister is Rika, the best sister in the world. She’s perfect in every way—looks, personality—and has always looked after me since I was little. Except for that year when she was ...
Chapter 28 Chapter 28 Save her, ...
Eri Kimoto was too lazy to think about the reason why Megumi Fushiguro appeared earlier than her brother-in-law Yuta Otsutsuka.
After being caught by the giant snake's long tail, he was thrown directly into the air. Before he landed on the ground, he was caught in Fushiguro Megumi's arms. Then he took two big steps backward, pulling himself back to create some distance.
“?!”
"open!"
Eri Kimoto did not notice that Megumi Fushiguro's face was extremely alert at this moment. She was more focused on her sister. In order to protect herself, her sister was injured. This was simply unforgivable.
Unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable—
After seeing the special-grade cursed spirit wearing a kimono behind Geto Suguru, the extremely angry Eri Kimoto's pupils suddenly shrank for a moment. She stared at it straight, and the biting coldness in her eyes seemed to solidify into substance.
Eri Kimoto tried to break free from Fushiguro Megumi's restraint, but she held her very tightly. Even after being hit by two elbows from Fushiguro, she refused to let go.
"Stop it!"
"This man is very strong!"
His tone was much more urgent and calm than usual. Fushiguro Megumi took two big steps backwards before putting her on the ground, still holding her tightly and not allowing her to get any closer. The confrontation between the two special-grade cursed spirits was too dangerous. This was not a situation they could intervene in.
"who is he?!"
The man had a smile on his face, but his eyes were as cold as ice. His cursed energy was like a bottomless abyss. Even at such a distance, Megumi Fushiguro instinctively tensed up.
Quickly assessing the situation, Fushiguro Megumi decided that fighting and retreating would be the best option. This place wasn't too far from the technical high school, and any more noise would probably attract attention. It would be a stretch for the two of them, junior high school students who hadn't even enrolled yet, to face this man... Who was he?! He looked incredibly strong!
"Hi, hello."
"Foshiguro Megumi, right? My name is Geto Suguru, nice to meet you."
Ignoring the two special-grade cursed spirits fighting in front of him, Geto Suguru tilted his head slightly as he looked in their direction, his tone unusually brisk: "Successor of the Ten Shadow Technique, why are you here too?"
...I'm speechless when it comes to Megumi Fushiguro.
Originally, she was just going to pet the dog and go to sleep, but when she saw the abnormal movement of the jade dog scratching the door, the silent Fushiguro Megumi stopped wiping her hair and stared at the jade dog in silence.
After asking "No way", I still heard the Jade Dog's affirmative answer of "Woof!"
These two have some experience. After all, in Saitama, Eri Kimoto has sneaked out many times at night...
When encountering such a situation, Yuquan would scratch the door frantically, and Fushiguro Megumi would sigh wildly, then go out and follow her breath to see what she was going to do. If she did something bad, he would arrest her on the spot.
However, now, he had no intention of answering Geto Suguru's question at all. He just pulled Eri Kimoto back to block her behind him, and even found the time to form a seal to summon two wolf-sized jade dogs. The black and white jade dogs growled and blocked the two of them.
"Oh? That's great," Suguru Geto exclaimed, then showed an expectant expression: "But this level is not enough."
The countless bone spurs that burst out of the ground were powered by an unknown cursed spirit. Although their range was not large, they still pierced Fushiguro Megumi's feet in an instant. The attack came without warning and gave him no time to react. The young man subconsciously commanded the jade dog to jump away with caution, and then punched the ground with a fist full of cursed power.
Eri Kimoto also reacted quickly, cutting off the neck of another cursed spirit that wanted to sneak attack Megumi Fushiguro with one knife.
"Hey, you two are actually cooperating?"
"What about this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Geto Suguru raised his hand and waved it, and another cursed spirit appeared out of thin air. No matter how you looked at it, its aura was about the same level as the previous one. It was almost enough to make people curse in their hearts that this guy's technique was like cheating. Speaking of which, how many cursed spirits could he control?!
Fushiguro Megumi's pupils suddenly shrank, and the Jade Dog rushed forward to fight as if it knew its master's intention. However, before it could check, the person behind him turned into a white light and rushed forward with a knife.
"Eri!"
Megumi Fushiguro felt herself breaking out in a cold sweat. If it weren't for the powerful Special-Grade Sister Rika in front of him battling Geto Suguru and the Special-Grade Cursed Spirit he had summoned, she and Eri alone would have been no match for this man. If he could easily summon a Special-Grade Cursed Spirit, this person must also be of Special-Grade strength, right?!
But the only special-grade he knew of was... Could this person be the classmate Gojo Satoru had mentioned before? Fushiguro Megumi didn't want to dwell on it any further. After all, the current situation didn't give him much time to think. Norimoto Eri looked a little overwhelmed.
Fushiguro Megumi had never seen her with such a serious and ferocious expression. In fact, Sister Rika was only slightly injured when she blocked the opponent's special attack. He didn't know if it was because of this that Eri Kimoto was obviously very angry.
She was already very angry just now, and now she was even angrier, which caused her cursed energy to surge instantly. Her dark red cursed energy enveloped her entire body, and even the samurai sword could not withstand her cursed energy and shattered into pieces the moment it hit the quasi-first-level cursed spirit.
"calm!"
The fist of the first-level cursed spirit was about to land on Eri Norimoto's face. The momentum of this attack was extremely strong. Fushiguro Megumi endured the pain and ran towards her while commanding the jade dogs to interfere with the cursed spirit's movements. However, even if the two jade dogs bit the cursed spirit's arms at the same time, it could not slow down its momentum much.
However, at this moment, Qiben Eri raised her eyes indifferently and glanced at the first-level curse spirit.
She leaped up, her movements clean and without any superfluousness, her body achieving perfect balance in the air, and her incredibly precise and smooth rotation to the correct angle enabled her to deliver a volley side kick with even greater force, directly hitting the curse spirit's head.
It wasn't just a simple side kick, but like a taut bowstring filled with astonishing energy, it suddenly released when it reached its climax. The air seemed to be torn apart by this sudden force, making a slight explosion, and the surrounding space seemed to be distorted for a moment.
She did not let it go. Even when this first-level power-type cursed spirit flew backwards and hit the thick tree trunk behind it, her figure flashed and caught up with it. Eri Qimoto directly took out a dagger and stabbed it in the eye. She continued to add strength and stabbed the knife directly into its head.
“…!”
Megumi Fushiguro had never seen her like this before. The huge cursed spirit slowly turned into ashes behind her. Eri Kimoto returned to the ground lightly with her head lowered. She wiped the blood off her face with the back of her hand. Her expression did not fluctuate at all, as if her previous behavior was nothing at all.
"...Eri, calm down."
Fushiguro Megumi took a deep breath and knew that it would be useless even if he said that. Eri Norimoto was definitely in a state of anger, and one could even see the malice churning in her eyes.
Eri Kimoto didn't take the anxious Megumi Fushiguro into consideration at all. She only had eyes for the man whose eyes were wide open.
Geto Suguru looked at his own expression with increasing surprise.
"Eri-chan, I changed my mind."
"We'll definitely get along."
Perhaps it was Eri Kimoto's current state that made Rika even more excited, but Rika, who was somewhat rational, was still wary of the strength of the man in front of her. She pulled away the special cursed spirit that was entangled with her with a claw and quickly returned to Eri Kimoto's side.
"Eri!"
'Walk--'
"I can't leave."
A special-grade cursed spirit in an orange kimono floated behind Geto Suguru. The fox-like man raised his hand: "The special-grade imaginary cursed spirit 'Incarnation Tamamonomae', plus... um... eight... no, nine hundred? This level should be enough to take you away, Eri-chan, hold on!"
An extremely dangerous black vortex appeared above his palm. The terrifying curse power was compressed and gathered in his hand. The pure black curse power vortex ball became larger and larger.
The two people on the opposite side plus the sister all felt the danger. Eri couldn't develop her strength to 100%. Why hasn't Yuta arrived yet!
The older sister was so anxious that she hugged Eri Norimoto and Megumi Fushiguro, trying to use her huge body to block the two of them.
"no!"
Of course she understood her sister's thoughts. Qiben Eri's pupils suddenly contracted. Geto Suguru's move was definitely a big move. Just looking at the current momentum, one could tell how powerful this move would be, and he was actually holding back!
Can't beat him.
...hateful.
At this moment, Eri Kimoto's heart was overwhelmed by regret and guilt. This feeling of powerlessness was like a huge rock pulling her into the bottomless sea.
It was all because she overestimated her own strength that the situation became what it is now. It turned out that everything was because she was too weak.
Being held tightly in her sister's arms, Eri Qimoto felt a sore nose. She couldn't let her sister stand in front of her like a shield. She couldn't accept that anything happened to her sister again. Her sister had always protected her like this since she was a child. She was the best sister in the world.
From the moment his sister appeared, Geto Suguru's unconcealed fiery gaze was like a pervert. There was no other way. He could only cut off contact with his sister. I hope that Yuuta Otsutsuki will take good care of his sister in the future. If he does something wrong to his sister, he will not let him go even if he becomes a ghost.
And Megumi Fushiguro,
Although I don’t know why Megumi Fushiguro also appeared here, he will not die.
"Sister, I have always loved you the most,"
"sorry."
"If there is a next life, I should be your older sister and take care of you."
Qi Ben Eri finally hugged her sister and rubbed her, her voice becoming choked with sobs, "But, please forgive my selfishness, I really still want to be your sister's younger sister."
"I still want to be the little sister that my sister loves... I'm sorry."
The air around seemed to stagnate at this moment, even the wind stopped, and the leaves stopped swaying. The whole world seemed to be in a brief stillness at this moment.
Everyone present saw her.
A ten-year-old girl wearing a blue skirt, a red bow tie, and long black hair, who looks 50% like Eri Kimoto, appeared next to the giant white curse.
"Eri? !!!!"
'no! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! '
Rika's face was filled with extreme fear. She screamed with the white cursed spirit and reached out to hug her sister, but it was Eri Kimoto herself who took the initiative to cut off the connection between them.
After leaving her sister's arms, Qi Ben Eri showed an expression of extreme nostalgia, her eyes were as clear and gentle as a spring, and full of deep attachment.
However, the doll belonging to the elder sister began to disappear from the feet, like star-like points of light or dreamy bubbles, and the elder sister's appearance also disappeared.
"Eri! ! ! ! ! ! ! "
'Yuta is coming! No! ! ! ! ! ! !'
Everything happened in just a few seconds. Not to mention Geto Suguru who was still accumulating strength on the opposite side, even Megumi Fushiguro who was beside him was stunned. Eri Kimoto turned her head and looked at him deeply, as if she wanted to remember his appearance more clearly.
"Feel sorry."
"Fushiguro-san,"
With red eyes, Eri Kimoto also smiled at him: "I'm sorry for everything, and thank you."
Thank you, thank you for taking care of me some time ago. The days in Saitama Prefecture were very happy. I am very grateful to him. It seems that life has become very interesting after knowing him.
I'm also very sorry for causing him so much trouble. Eri Kimoto thought that this kick would probably hurt him a lot, so I'm very sorry.
“?!”
Fushiguro Megumi, who was kicked away by her full-strength kick, opened his eyes wide, almost unable to believe what was happening. Just then, he was kicked and flew backwards for a long distance like a kite with a broken string.
The kimono cursed spirit exploded the compressed vortex of cursed energy of Geto Suguru, the energy was really terrifying.
Maybe it was due to the energy wave or because Eri Kimoto didn't check the route of her kick, but the unlucky boy's head hit a tree. Before he lost consciousness, Megumi Fushiguro still struggled to summon Nue and bring her to his side.
But the last scene the boy with blurred vision saw was regrettable.
Holding Eri, who didn't react much, with one hand, Geto looked back at him with regret. The two of them were about to step into the dark vortex, and a roar of shock and anger came from behind.
"Eri?!!!!!!"
Save her, Otsutsuki-senpai...
Megumi Fushiguro moved her fingers, trying to grab something, but they eventually fell down powerlessly, as if the darkness swallowed everything.
