For Fang Zheng, the battle with the girl was not entirely in vain. At least for now, the power used by this world would also be immune to and resisted by magic.
And that knife...
"Does it have the ability to destroy magic? No wonder she likes to chop it with a knife so much."
During the battle with the girl, Fang Zheng had thought about using magic to defeat her more than once, but every time he was about to use magic, the future vision would tell him that the magic he released would be cut in half by the opponent - well, with such a weapon, it was no wonder that the girl's fighting style was always to rush forward.
But unfortunately, rushing forward is never the best way to fight.
Forget it, that’s the other party’s business.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng shook his head and put the matter aside. He was not an old urban grandfather who would sell a copy of Dugu Jiujian to a girl just because she had a strange figure. But no matter what, finding one of the three key elements to unlock the soul stone on the second day of arriving here was obviously a good thing for Fang Zheng.
but……
"Hmm... there's one person missing."
Looking at the student list in front of him, Fang Zheng frowned. If he had no direct impression of what the girl said before, now Fang Zheng had some understanding of it. In his class list, the name "Sakai Yuuji" had quietly disappeared, but no one noticed anything wrong. In fact, if Fang Zheng had not memorized the names of everyone in his class, he would not have noticed anything unusual.
Not only that, even the students in the class have completely forgotten this person, as if he never existed. Even his family members don't remember that such a person exists. All traces of Yuuji Sakai's existence have been erased by the power of the world. Well... what an unlucky child.
"Ka."
While lamenting the impermanence of life, Fang Zheng walked into the classroom. The moment he walked into the classroom, the noisy voices in the classroom immediately quieted down.
"very good."
Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction at the students sitting on the chairs. Then he walked up to the podium and glanced around casually. Sakai Yuuji's seat was still empty, but no one reacted. It was as if in their memory, that seat was naturally empty.
Other than that, nothing seems to have changed... huh?
At this moment, a girl appeared in Fang Zheng's eyes. She was wearing a sailor uniform from Yuqi High School and stared at him expressionlessly. Judging from her height and body shape, she was more like a junior high school student than a high school student... Why was she here?
"Well, now let's start the roll call."
Fang Zheng flipped through the roster.
"Sato."
"arrive."
"Mushu."
"arrive."
The roll call during the morning self-study was the same every day, but Fang Zheng never got tired of it. When he was a student, he had thought more than once about how he would treat his students if he became a teacher... Well, to some extent, this could be considered the fulfillment of his dream?
"Hirai."
“…”
When Fang Zheng called this name, the petite girl with long black hair glared at him coldly but said nothing. However, Fang Zheng obviously would not let it go. He raised his eyebrows, then reached out and lightly tapped the roster.
"Hirai? Hirai Yone?"
"……arrive."
Under Fang Zheng's gaze, the black-haired girl murmured unwillingly, but Fang Zheng didn't care, just nodded, and continued to call out the names. He didn't know how the girl entered the school under the name of Pingjing Yuan, but... well, it's not surprising. After all, the enchantment department and the illusion department have the same methods. Maybe this girl has similar abilities?
Fang Zheng's question was soon answered.
"I just placed the remains of the torch called Hirai Enishi, so it appeared here."
Standing on the rooftop, the girl looked at the scenery in front of her and answered without turning her head.
"During yesterday's battle, the girl named Pingjing Yuan was also devoured by the Red World, leaving only a torch, so I temporarily borrowed her identity... This is also a common occurrence for the Fire Mist Warriors."
"Really? What a pity! That child is still very cute..."
Hearing the girl's answer, Fang Zheng sighed. He had some impression of the girl named Pingjing Yuan. Although her grades were average, she was a lively and cheerful girl. But it was a pity... the past was the past. He also learned from the girl that many people were devoured by phosphorus yesterday, but he didn't expect that one of the victims was his own student.
"I see...So, what's your name?"
"Hirai Yuu, this is my name now."
"That's not what I meant. I meant your own name."
Fang Zheng waved his hand and walked to the girl's side.
"Hirai Yuu is the name of my student. Unlike you, she is a good and well-behaved child. So, I think you should have a name that suits your lonely personality."
“…”
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the girl twitched her lips and wanted to say something, but in the end she just snorted coldly.
"I don't have a name."
"……No?"
"Yes, I am the Fire Mist Warrior, a weapon to defeat the Red World. Weapons don't need names."
"Who said weapons don't have names?"
Fang Zheng expressed his opposition to this.
"Even weapons have the right to be named. For example, my sword is called the Sky-breaking Sword. Your broadsword should also have a name."
"...Zhidianzana, this is the name of the sword."
This name is really ugly...
Although Fang Zheng did think so, after looking at the girl in front of him, he thought about it and decided not to say his feelings, otherwise they might start fighting again.
"Then let's just give you a homophonic name and call you Shana... Since you don't have a name yourself, do you mind if I help you choose one?"
“…”
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the girl frowned but remained silent.
"It's decided then."
Since the girl didn't say anything, Fang Zheng took it as her tacit agreement. So he turned around and walked towards the stairs.
"Although I don't know why you come to school, please behave yourself. After all, this is not a battlefield."
Although Fang Zheng said this, it was obvious that the girl did not intend to do as he said. As for the reason...
"Teacher Fang Zheng! What on earth is going on with Pingjing Yuan in your class?!"
Haah… here we go again.
Looking at the pale-faced English teacher in front of him, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly. Since the first class till now, almost all the teachers who taught Grade 1 and 2 would come to him to complain, and the reasons for their complaints were all the same. That was Ping Jing Yuan... Or Shana, the student, had no respect for teachers at all. Not only did she not open her textbooks to listen in class, but she would even argue back when the teacher scolded her. More importantly, the other party's arguments were also very reasonable, leaving these poor teachers speechless. There was even a case where a teacher felt that he was not good enough and jumped off the building out of shame.
Well... luckily it's on the first floor.
"I see."
Looking at the excited teachers in front of him, Fang Zheng smiled and spoke to comfort them.
"I will find a way to solve the problem, please rest assured, teachers."
It seems that it is necessary to let that little girl know whose territory this is.
