"...In other words, the monsters I just fought are called Phosphorus, and they are subordinates of the 'Red World Demon King'. The 'Red World Demon King' is a powerful being from another world. In order to maintain their form in this world, they must devour the power of existence, preferably the power of existence of humans... So, they are man-eating monsters, isn't that right?"
Sitting in the fast food restaurant, Fang Zheng was shaking the milk tea in his hand while looking at the girl in front of him. At this moment, she was still wearing a black windbreaker, but her hair, which originally looked like burning red, had turned into a dark color.
"And after those monsters devour the power of existence, the balance of the world will be weakened, and even a catastrophe will occur. So fire mist warriors like you will appear to prevent the situation from getting worse... Am I right in understanding it this way?"
"sure."
The girl nodded, then took a bite of the pineapple bun, frowned and stared at Fang Zheng carefully.
"How interesting..."
Hearing the girl's answer, Fang Zheng smiled slightly, and then he looked out the window again - there, the houses that should have collapsed in the previous battle had already returned to their original state, and those who were originally affected had also returned to normal. But according to the girl in front of him, they were now just empty shells, and their souls... or the power of existence had been taken away by those phosphorus particles.
After losing the power of existence, these people will no longer exist. This does not only mean the disappearance of themselves, but also means that all their past, the remaining images, and even the memories of others will completely disappear. It is as if these people never existed in the first place.
It would be fine if it was just one or two people, but if tens of thousands of people were eliminated at the same time, it would be natural that there would be an irreparable gap in the world. If one or two people were missing from a class, the world could still be forcibly changed. But if only one or two people were left in a class, it would be difficult for the world to make the rest of the class accept this situation.
From a certain perspective, this is very similar to programming. If there is a large-scale code missing, then the software crashes naturally. It is for this reason that just now, the girl in front of him used the "power of existence" to perform a world repair for Fang Zheng... Well, what an interesting world...
Fang Zheng was sure that he had never watched this animation. After all, if he had heard of such an interesting setting, it would definitely remain in his mind.
"Hey, you haven't told me anything about yourself yet."
Just as Fang Zheng was thinking, the girl in front of him slammed the table and glared at him fiercely.
"You are not a Fire Mist Warrior, nor are you a Red World disciple. How did you manage to move in Feng Jue? And how did you manage to kill two Phosphorus? Who are you?"
"My name is Fang Zheng, and I'm currently a teacher at Yuqi High School."
Fang Zheng put down the milk tea in his hand, looked at the girl in front of him, and then answered. When the girl heard his answer, her eyebrows raised directly.
"I don't think an ordinary teacher can move in the seal and kill Rinko."
"Well, I am also a mage and a Knight Templar."
Fang Zheng has always been very frank with beautiful girls.
"Mage? Templar?"
As expected, upon hearing this, the girl showed a puzzled expression.
"What is that, Alastor, do you know?"
"Um……"
As the girl asked, the strange pendant on her chest began to glow again.
"I have never heard of anything like this..."
"It was only today that I learned that there is a profession called Fire Mist Warrior in the world."
Fang Zheng didn't care about it at all. At least with the help of this girl, he had gained some understanding of the background of the world he lived in. For Fang Zheng, this was enough.
"Thank you for your introduction. It's getting late now, so I should leave..."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng stood up and prepared to leave. But at this moment, the girl suddenly looked at him and spoke.
"etc!"
"Anything else?"
Hearing the girl's words, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her, while the girl stared at Fang Zheng without wavering, then stretched out her hand.
"Did you just obtain a Noble Phantasm from a Mystice? Give it to me!"
"oh?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng smiled slightly.
"How interesting. A treasure? Is that yours?"
"This is not mine, but the treasure is very dangerous. You are not a fire mist warrior, so you don't know the danger..."
"Excuse me."
However, before the girl could finish her words, Fang Zheng raised his hand and interrupted her long speech.
"Although I'm not a Fire Mist Warrior, since I've already got that thing, I can't give it to you. That's it... As for what use it has to me, that's a trade secret."
Are you kidding? How can you give away something you have already obtained? Although Fang Zheng didn't know what the treasure he had obtained was, since it was used to unlock the soul stone, it must be an important thing in this world. If it was such a thing, then he would not be stupid enough to give it to others.
"you……!!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the girl's expression suddenly changed.
"In that case, I will have no choice but to take it by force!"
"Want a fight?"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Fang Zheng thought for a moment. If he guessed correctly, the girl in front of him should be one of the protagonists of this world? In any case, since the other party was interested, he would accompany her to the end. It was just right to see how powerful the so-called Fire Mist Warrior in this world was.
"There are too many people here, let's go somewhere else."
No matter how many times I see it, I always feel that this skill is quite useful.
Standing on the river bank, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the space surrounded by bright red. He had learned from the girl that this space was formed by a barrier magic called "Seal". However, unlike the "time stop" in Fang Zheng's imagination, the entire "Seal" was a product of temporarily separating a part of the space from the "law of cause and effect" of the world, forming an isolated space. It was like people temporarily took a part from the conveyor belt, and then wrote and drew on it at will, but no matter what, he had to put the part back on the conveyor belt in the end for further assembly and processing. Otherwise, without this part, the assembly system of the entire "world" would stop, or even cause problems.
But no matter what, this magic is really convenient.
If this magic could be used in the main world, Fang Zheng wouldn't have to worry about trivial matters like traces left behind from battles. He could just use the power of existence to repair them.
But now...
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng raised his head and looked at the girl in front of him.
"Are you ready?"
At this moment, the girl has returned to her flaming form with dandruff falling off her scalp. Hmm... Fang Zheng feels that he should really introduce a good shampoo brand to her, such as Sea O Silk or something like that...
"Come on, little sister."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng drew out the Broken Sky Sword from the void.
"Let me see how strong your Fire Mist Warriors are."
"How dare you say that..."
Hearing Fang Zheng's calm tone, the girl frowned, with unmistakable indifference and displeasure emerging on her face.
"Then I will let you see the power of the Fire Mist Warrior!!"
