Chapter 133
Why are Russians in Yokohama?
Yellow eyes turn into purple eyes... Wait, does the world even have the ability to change eye color?
Dongshu was taken aback, and could only respect it despite not understanding it.
She looked at those eyes curiously, but the moment the color completely changed and she sensed the change in Atsushi Nakajima's aura, her curiosity vanished and her eyes sharpened instantly.
...Isn't this wrong?
How did that little tiger, who was by no means upright, kind, and even sunny, suddenly become so sinister, like a rat lurking in the shadows...?
What the hell is that?
Is it that same group of data streamers again? But something doesn't feel right.
Fuyuki reached out and placed his hand on Nakajima Atsushi's neck, feeling the pulse beating faster and faster.
The spiritual energy in his hands began to circulate, entering the other person's body through the skin he touched. His violent struggles were firmly held down by the spirits, which did not affect his movements in the slightest.
There was someone else's scent.
Who entered this guy's body?
Why is someone trying to snatch a body? This action... is some ancient ghost about to be resurrected? Something's not right...
Dongshu squinted, carefully sensing this aura, a gift from the world's consciousness. He began to feel the burning heat of his identity as a messenger of the world, prompting him to quickly try to grasp the other party's identity.
Russians?
Why are there Russians in Japan? That's so strange. And they look exactly like those white rice balls I saw before...
Oh, that matches up.
The figure I had glimpsed in a blur instantly became clear.
Black hair, purple eyes, and a sickly yet harmless appearance when she smiles.
However, beneath the surface, the unspoken sense of danger still made Fuyuki somewhat aware of it.
A person with superpowers?
What is that ability? To take away someone else's body?
She didn't have time to think too much, and she didn't know what had caused this situation.
"It's been pressed down."
Give the order.
Then Fuyuki increased the amount of power he had in his hands.
The easiest and quickest way to remove something that has invaded someone else's body is not to push it out, but rather—
Annihilate them!
Without hesitation, her usually gentle and calm power instantly turned murderous, like a sharp sword.
The spiritual energy patrolled throughout Atsushi Nakajima's body, ruthlessly eliminating any strange aura it encountered.
There are too many, and they're too varied.
She didn't even know when or how Atsushi Nakajima had met that dangerous guy.
Logically speaking, the activation of supernatural abilities cannot be without reason.
What did he do after invading Atsushi Nakajima's body?
Through touch and eye contact, he acquired a part of Atsushi Nakajima's body.
Fuyuki couldn't find any information about that guy's abilities for the time being; her knowledge was still incomplete.
World consciousness is currently rushing to restore the world.
Although the identity card within his body had transformed from an envoy of Yokohama to an envoy of the world consciousness, and he had acquired more information, Fuyuki's knowledge about the world consciousness remained concentrated in the Yokohama area due to his busy schedule.
Russians? They've all gone abroad.
It was completely outside her intelligence scope.
Dongshu frowned, looking at the pair of blank eyes, where yellow and purple hues seemed to intertwine within the pupils.
In this small space, three forces began to clash. With the help of others, the tiger, which had been suppressed, began to roar in retaliation, and it did not hesitate to extend its claws at the invaders of its territory.
The two sides clashed in a chaotic battle.
The kicked-out spiritual energy looked around, caught between the two supernatural abilities, and was momentarily at a loss as to how to intervene.
Winter Tree: "".
And so the fight broke out; it seemed a bit redundant for her to join in.
However, it would be best to quickly eliminate the power that suddenly invaded Atsushi Nakajima's body.
Just as he was about to rejoin this invisible battle, a familiar voice suddenly echoed in his mind, and Fuyuki abruptly withdrew his hand.
Her unusual behavior instantly caught the attention of the spirit.
"Master, how are you? Are you alright?"
Gokotai was the first to rush over, blocking the other tsukumogami behind him.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga twitched the corner of his mouth.
Mere mobility—
He really can't compete with him now! Hmph.
Goko took out a handkerchief and wiped away non-existent sweat from Fuyuki, then asked with a worried expression, "If you're too tired, stop. Master, you should take care of your health."
Why would a strange person need his master to exhaust himself for him?
They're all grown up, why do they need children to rescue them...?
Wu Hu Tui pursed his lips, and the five little tigers beside him seemed to have their fur standing on end, staring at the big tiger that was being held down tightly.
Incompetent fellow human beings!
"I'm fine."
Fuyuki took his hand and patted it reassuringly.
"Don't worry, it will be resolved soon."
Just now, the little stray dog seemed to have sensed her movement and sent her a message.
[Don't kill him! Don't kill him! This guy is still very important; if he dies, things will get complicated!]
Reviving someone is indeed against the rules. Although it's not impossible, it's still a violation of one's own rules... The little stray dog thought guiltily, thinking that it would be too disrespectful if others found out.
【……？】
Fuyuki recalled that guy who was icy cold yet had a hint of warmth, and who was a hodgepodge of traits, resembling both a rice ball and a mouse.
Such a strange existence... indeed, anything with too many mixed elements is definitely not something insignificant.
Her memories of this place as a human became blurred, and all she knew about this world were from the little stray dog.
What is this?
To be able to attack the child most beloved by the world's consciousness, and to do so without any mercy...
hiss.
Fuyuki has roughly figured out this guy's role.
Unconsciously, she pulled Gokotai's head into her arms, her fingers naturally running through his hair, and gently patted his head to comfort him.
Goko-tsu was naturally aware that she was distracted, but the subconscious action of hugging and patting her head made the little dagger unsure whether to be happy or sad that her master was distracted while patting her.
Okay, so what do we do now? What's this guy's ability? Why did he suddenly get inside someone's body? That's so strange!
The little stray dog cleared its throat, its voice sounding much more serious: "[Sin and punishment.]"
...It's a very meaningful name, so much so that it's impossible to immediately tell what kind of ability it represents.
Fuyuki: [To be clearer.]
[Simply put, it's the ability to make the person who kills you become the next you.]
The stray dog casually dropped a bomb and then quickly left, leaving her standing there dumbfounded.
Um……
To let the person who killed you become the next you...?
What's the difference between this and immortality?
Wouldn't the enemy then be left with no choice but to let the other side do whatever they want? With such capabilities, they wouldn't even be afraid of death.
It suddenly entered Atsushi Nakajima's body, so when did this child kill that strange guy?
When was that?
It's only been a few hours since last night.
Atsushi Nakajima didn't leave the building to go anywhere and then kill someone, and judging from the boy's personality, he doesn't seem like the type to kill someone on his own initiative.
That's strange, so very strange.
"Owner?"
Wu Hu Tui took the initiative to push upwards, and the warm fingers on his head stopped moving. He looked up in confusion.
Fuyuki followed the voice and met the golden eyes.
Wu Hutui blinked.
She lowered her hand, gently pushed the other person back a little with her pats on the shoulder, and then asked, "Tai-chan, have you noticed Atsushi leaving here?"
The short sword is much better at reconnaissance than other swords, so it's naturally the most appropriate person to ask him about something like this.
“No.” Goko shook his head. “I haven’t left here at all.”
Regarding his professional competence, he gave a very accurate and firm answer.
"They didn't leave here..."
There's only one possibility: the other party either entered this place or used some tactic to make contact with him indirectly, thus allowing Atsushi Nakajima to meet the conditions for killing him.
But why is it necessary to enter this child's body? What benefit would it bring him?
Fuyuki was completely baffled; she needed to know more information.
As for information gathering, it's more appropriate to leave it to the sword spirits.
"Oh dear, it seems something interesting has happened?" Just then, Osamu Dazai, who had been wandering off somewhere, suddenly returned.
He leaned against the wall, watching the group of people gathered at the door of Nakajima Atsushi's room, and raised an eyebrow with a hint of amusement.
Atsushi Nakajima was pinned to the ground by Munechika Mikazuki and Hasebe Shikiri, looking completely bewildered, while their master, Fuyuki, sat quietly to the side, which didn't seem like a normal situation at all.
“Dazai…” Fuyuki blinked at him, then his eyes suddenly lit up. “Come here, touch him.”
Anyway, whatever the ability is, it's still a supernatural ability, so let Dazai Osamu give it a try.
This guy becomes very useful in times like these.
Upon hearing this, Dazai Osamu immediately hugged himself, looking wary: "What? I don't want to touch a man."
He acted as if he were a virtuous man being forced into this situation.
Fuyuki: "..."
She remembered this guy as Dazai Osamu, the leader who wore a red scarf. Even though he's wearing a sand-colored trench coat now, how come his very essence has changed?
She rubbed her temples helplessly: "It seems like Dun has been affected by a supernatural power. Come and take a look."
Dazai Osamu's face immediately fell: "Oh."
He slowly approached, his hand reaching out and landing on Atsushi Nakajima's bare skin.
Fuyuki nervously watched Nakajima Atsushi's expression, observing whether there was any change in his eyes.
...Huh?
Unexpectedly, the yellow and purple pupils on each side merged in an instant, turning into a murky yellow.
Something's not right, is it?
This was not due to Dazai Osamu's ability.
No Longer Human, it's no longer valid.
Dongshu felt as if the wrinkles in his brain had been smoothed out in an instant.
Dazai Osamu stood up, waved his hand, and said with a helpless expression, "It seems there's no way to handle this. I'm not capable of dealing with this matter."
The decision to give up was made very decisively.
“Touching Atsushi won’t work, then we’ll find a way to get you to touch someone with superpowers.” Fuyuki blinked. “Believe in your abilities, you can definitely do it.”
This matter definitely needs to be resolved.
The area she pushed into ruins last night has been rebuilt, and the cracks in the sky are now almost invisible.
Except for the fact that there are still very few people in the city, it's not much different from what I remember Yokohama to be like.
Even the little stray dog has the mood to take some time to chat with her.
Soon, the world will soon be restored.
"No, they're different."
Just as Fuyuki was about to pull Dazai Osamu away to find someone, Edogawa Ranpo suddenly peeked out from the corner of the wall.
He squinted and wagged his finger: "As for Dazai, he really can't handle it."
"Professional matters should be handled by professionals."
Immediately afterwards, a woman carrying a chainsaw slowly walked out from behind him.
Yosano Akiko remained expressionless, her gaze instantly locking onto Nakajima Atsushi.
"Leave it to me."
"Huh?"
Fuyuki blinked, puzzled but still deftly led the tsukumogami to the side, sensing a dangerous aura emanating from them.
She looked at Yosano Akiko. If she remembered correctly, this person should be positioned as a doctor, right?
Dazai Osamu slowly took two steps to the side, and saw Fuyuki looking at him and even winking.
Fuyuki looked away; she shouldn't have expected this guy to give her an explanation.
Yosano Akiko didn't say anything, but she deftly turned on the chainsaw, and the roaring chainsaw made direct contact with Nakajima Atsushi's skin.
His expression remained bewildered, but his struggles became even more intense.
It's like a conditioned reflex in the body.
horrible.
This doctor seems a little scary.
Fuyuki touched his arm to suppress the goosebumps, then leaned close to the nearest member of his body, Hasebe.
I hope I will never need this treatment.
With a serious expression, Hasebe shielded the Saniwa behind him.
After reaching the brink of death, one can use their abilities to heal injuries, but this healing is likely only for superficial wounds.
In theory, this would have no effect on Atsushi Nakajima, who was being attacked by a supernatural ability.
but.
Edogawa Ranpo made this decision.
"ah--"
Atsushi Nakajima, who was struggling, suddenly let out a scream. After a flash of light from his supernatural ability, his cloudy yellow eyes instantly became clear.
He blinked in confusion, then staggered to his feet, leaning against the door. Looking at the group of people surrounding him, he cautiously asked, "What... what happened... just now?"
Whether it's Mr. Ranpo, Mr. Dazai, or Ms. Yosano who suddenly appeared, or even that girl I don't know but who is very familiar with my movements... why are they all surrounding me?
Fuyuki poked her head out: "You don't remember?"
"Um."
This is a very bad situation. No matter what the circumstances, if he doesn't remember, it means that he wasn't fully conscious even when he was fighting against that force.
Fuyuki briefly explained the situation to everyone present.
"Immortality?" Akiko Yosano pondered. "A troublesome ability..."
"Yeah, it's actually not bad." Edogawa Ranpo pushed up his glasses.
Looking at the confident detective, Fuyuki felt that he seemed to have figured something out, but he didn't say it out loud.
She didn't know what was causing the situation, which seemed to be caused by a supernatural power. She even felt that power in Atsushi Nakajima's body. In the end, the only thing that could resolve the matter was the healing spell "Please Do Not Die".
That's a long story.
The little stray dog's voice suddenly appeared in Fuyuki's mind again, but this time it clearly sounded a bit guilty.
[Anyway, the power suddenly mutated, and it's normal for a few minor bugs to appear during the world's rebuilding process, right?]
"You did this? You changed the power system?" Fuyuki guessed. "Or did you change the effects of their abilities?"
Well, that's a long story. I guess it falls under the second category you mentioned.
He cleared his throat.
In short, Dazai Osamu's ability became immunity to all physical damage, while Yosano Akiko's ability has now become the ability to heal mental damage caused by supernatural powers. It's not that hard to understand... right?
After saying a series of things, the little stray dog slowly typed a question mark at the end, trying to gain resonance.
【？】
Fuyuki looked at the group of people in front of her with a blank expression. Although she wanted to fill in countless questions in her mind, she still managed to maintain her composure.
What about the Russian?
It's hard to say.
The more I listened, the more guilty I felt.
Is it really a good thing for this world to have a world consciousness that hasn't even matured yet?
Winter Tree: Pity.jpg
[Haha... It's okay, it's okay, it'll be back to normal soon. There's still a little bit left to finish. Honestly, this is my first time doing this kind of work, I'm still a bit unfamiliar with it.]
Do you want a second time?
【No, no, no!】
The little stray dog was absolutely adamant about refusing.
"I didn't want to either." Fuyuki sighed expressionlessly. "It's tiring, troublesome, and I'm constantly on edge."
He frantically jumps between different parallel worlds, creating spatial rifts every now and then, and even causing the world to vanish completely. After searching for ages and finally finding a key character, he ends up having to fight...
Are you a corporate slave?
Oh, she really is.
"Everyone, I have to go out for a bit."
Seeing that Nakajima Atsushi seemed completely unharmed, Fuyuki sighed helplessly, "Yokohama is getting more and more lively."
Atsushi Nakajima scratched his head.
Upon hearing this, Edogawa Ranpo quickly walked over, pulling out a lollipop from his pocket as he did so: "Of course it will get better. Don't worry about what Fuyuki wants to do."
The famous detective knows everything.
Fuyuki held the lollipop, her eyes reflecting the brightly colored wrapper, which was extremely beautiful.
The next second, the girl curled the corners of her mouth, and a smile instantly appeared on her face.
The sunlight shifted from the colorful candy wrappers and finally landed on her face.
A gentle yet radiant being came from another world and then worked hard to make this world gentle and radiant as well.
“Okay.” Dongshu met his gaze and replied firmly.
She's really exhausted. She must report this truthfully when she gets back and ask the government to give her a raise.
"Then I'm leaving."
*
As Fuyuki led the sword spirits outside, he pondered slowly.
She could already sense the faint presence of the city's will; the city was almost completely restored.
The world is almost repaired, major cities are nearing completion, and important figures in the world are gradually being restored...
The basic elements that make up a complete world gradually come together.
The world is about to stabilize.
She lowered her eyes.
In other words, her mission is almost over.
What needs to be addressed now is the inexplicable attack on important world figures who haven't fully recovered yet—
Mr. White Rice Ball!
Fuyuki exhaled.
Please accept the grievances of the overworked!
