Chapter 78: Day 78 of Cultivation
Chapter 78
[Kanako, great news! Tsu Miki and Kei have successfully entered the vortex tunnel and traveled to this timeline!] The system muttered in its head.
Although the original restriction was to prevent anyone from knowing about the existence of the time travel, it is now confirmed that the custom time travel unlocked with 50 points of cultivation value can be used to place the characters most relevant to each time travel within the scope of the restrictions.
To give a simple example, just like in the original exploration topic about "love", Yuta Otsutsuko and Rika Jurei are the most important related characters, so they can know the fact that Kanako traveled through time.
The important people involved this time are the Fushiguro siblings.
The difference between the two is that as Kanako's cultivation value increases, the power of this restraint is obviously gradually weakening...
It seems to change according to the host's thoughts.
The system muttered: [This situation...could it be the law of cause and effect that Tianyuan often mentioned?]
"Okay, then I'm going to go find Tsumeki and Koharu next." Kanako said to herself, "But first, I need to finish the things I have on hand."
The smell of curse spirits was everywhere, and there was no pleasant yogurt smell, which meant that there were no special-grade curse spirits.
And without special grade, in her dictionary, it means a bunch of weak chickens.
It's just the difference between a small pile of garbage and a large pile of garbage. The cleaners will patiently clean up the garbage one by one. Kanako feels that she can do it too.
Some people noticed Kanako's indifferent look as she glanced around. However, the sorcerers who witnessed it all behind the monitors did not take it seriously and just thought it was just idle chat during their break.
The topic revolved around "Which one of the outer courtyards has white hair?", "It's quite unlucky", "But it's a bit good-looking. If it survives, I will take it back to my own courtyard to be a servant."
Other than that, there were only the children in the center of the open space.
"Hello."
A child's voice sounded, standing out amid the cacophony of cries and pleas for mercy.
Kanako's excellent hearing allowed her to accurately identify the location of the person speaking. Turning around, she saw a girl wearing a beige kimono and short dark green hair.
"Is this your first time here?" the girl with short, dark green hair asked expressionlessly. "I've never seen you before."
Of course I haven't seen her, because she just appeared out of nowhere.
Kanako simply asked directly: "Where is this place?"
The girl looked confused, but answered for her, "One of the rooms...used for training and punishment."
"I'm not sure which room it was. I was deliberately ambushed and knocked unconscious and thrown in." The girl spoke lightly, as if she was used to it.
"And you?"
"I fell in by accident." Kanako told the truth, and then asked, "I'm Kanako, what's your name?"
"Maki." The girl said.
"Maki...it's Zenin Maki!" Kanako immediately compared the name in her memory with the girl's appearance.
"...right."
Since she is my future junior, and she is so young but is thrown into a place like this to be bullied... Kanako silently added a new crime to the Zenin family.
As a senior, she would never allow such a scene to happen before her eyes!!!
The cursed spirits imprisoned within the walls made all sorts of strange noises, their groans and roars constantly moving towards the center of the room.
Kanako noticed that Zenin Maki secretly reached into her kimono and took out a dagger wrapped in a rag.
The other children around her were unarmed and had no means of resistance, so Kanako realized that this was not a training after all.
It's one-sided bullying.
"Maki, how are you going to fight this?" she asked.
Maki's answer was simple: "Either they die, or I live."
System: [There is only one possible outcome...]
"I still have to survive and find Mayi."
Perhaps thinking that Kanako had a similar experience to her own, Maki took the initiative to explain: "Mayi is my sister, I want to protect her."
"If you can run fast enough to see the cursed spirit..." Zenin Maki said, "Hide as long as possible. I will protect you."
Kanako's heart was hit by a straight ball of 100,000 points!
What a reliable statement! This is a naturally reliable child!
After finishing her words, Zenin Maki roughly tore off the rag covering the dagger, and her talent of exchanging cursed energy for physical fitness began to show.
Zenin Maki concentrated her energy and mind, using the techniques she had practiced in private to try her best to judge the movements of the cursed spirit.
Her curse power was too weak to see the curse clearly, so when it became necessary, Maki decided to infer the movement of the curse spirit by observing the frightened eyes of the people around her.
But this time, after several minutes, the panicked crowd kept staring nervously in four directions without any clear target.
Zenin Maki felt strange, and the people behind the monitors also noticed something unusual.
"Those cursed spirits of level three and below...why aren't they moving?" someone shouted angrily. "What are you doing here? You can't even make a mistake on such a low-level issue!?"
The subordinate hurriedly explained, "I don't know why it turned out like this... Isn't it natural for curses to attack humans?"
"This problem has never occurred in previous years. Only when the sorcerer stands in the room will the cursed spirits, fearing beings more powerful than themselves, shrink and hide within the walls."
"What's going on?" Maki asked a random child. "What can you see? Tell me what you see."
The child stammered, "I... I saw many cursed spirits squeeze through the wall and reach the sealed fence, and then they stopped there..."
"Nothing is moving."
The system gradually understood everything. It was inconvenient for it to show itself, so it said in Kanako's heart: [They are afraid of you, Kanako.]
Kanako smiled and shrugged, not commenting.
The system smacked its lips in astonishment: [These cursed spirits are quite perceptive. They've already retreated into a corner without you even using your murderous aura to overwhelm them.]
"I think their curses are more effective than the Zen-in family's glares!" The system was also sulking about the bullying incident, and its tone became sarcastic. "Some sorcerers are even more cruel to humans than the curse spirits!"
[A sorcerer should be more like a curse spirit than a curse spirit! ]
"Yeah... Rather than saying it's the ugliness of the sorcerer, it's better to say it's the ugliness of human nature." Kanako thought to herself.
"Even among non-magicians, there are still issues like seniors bullying juniors and school bullying."
"So don't just insult the sorcerer, Tongbao!" Kanako said seriously, "I will insult all bad humans equally!"
System: […Your scolding is even harsher than mine!]
Kanako clapped her palms vigorously, attracting everyone's attention, and shouted, "Everyone, look at me—I have an announcement to make."
She snapped her fingers crisply: "Cursed spirits, all of you go to hell."
The whole audience was silent.
"What? You can't even do something as simple as this?" Kanako muttered to herself and stomped her foot into the ground. h|
"Bang!"
The training ground floor, which was reinforced by cursed energy, crumbled like tofu and turned into tofu dregs.
No, simply fighting would only attract more garbage-like sorcerers, and she wouldn't be able to identify the target she wanted to fight the most.
She loves to fight, and if she wants to fight, she will go find the strongest fighter in the Zenyuan family.
So Kanako's eyes twitched, and she told the system: [You come and beat them up, and then make the environment as chaotic as possible.]
Then he turned around, grabbed Maki back, and asked, "What's the name of the person you hate the most?"
Maki was still immersed in Kanako's thoughtless kick, and her eyes were instantly filled with admiration and trust: "Any name is fine?"
Kanako: "Yes, remember to give your full name."
Maki moved her lips quickly, and Kanako nodded and continued to shout, "Everyone keep looking at me, I have one more announcement—"
"Zenin Naoya——You are a ００００ super big ００!!!"
Big ００——
００……
That day, we still don’t know what kind of swear words Kanako said.
All I knew was that the people behind the monitors froze in disbelief for a second, then rushed into the room with their eyes wide open in anger.
"How dare you insult Master Naoya with such filthy words—Fuck!"
The moment the door of the room opened, the shadow under Kanako's feet transformed into a long line.
A white, translucent ghost-like cursed spirit appeared from behind. The strength of the "ghost" was at least quasi-first level.
The reason for identification is simple, because the ghost can speak human language.
It stood in the center of the room, twisting its body like a large balloon figure used for hotel promotions, indiscriminately slapping all creatures that approached it while playing a mechanical voice in a loop:
"Zenin Naoya, you're a ００!"
"Have you heard? Zenin Naoya still doesn't have ００!"
"Look carefully, this man is called Zenin Naoya, and he has a secret. He is actually both 00 and 00... and he is also a hidden 00!"
Under the system's vigorous beating and destruction, cracks appeared on the ceiling of the room.
Kanako took advantage of the chaos to evacuate the crying children, then picked up Maki, used Youyun to smash the roof, and jumped out of the room.
The system's broadcast cavity can penetrate farther.
"Zenin Naoya, you're a 00!"
A series of obscene words were like a bomb dropped into the water for the feudal family, exploding in the Zen temple family and causing a major stir.
The news that "a quasi-first-level curse spirit suddenly appeared in the training ground" is not important, after all, the Zenyuan family has several cursers of the same level or above.
But it is different for Zenin Naoya, who is regarded as a favorable candidate for the next head of the Zenin family.
It is human nature to eat spectators' opinions on the spot and gossip in private.
Since no one has come out to refute the rumor, then I can’t be considered a rumormonger. — Kanako-style bandit logic.jpg
As soon as Kanako and Zenin Maki landed on the ground, Maki suggested that Kanako leave first because she was worried about the safety of her sister and mother.
"I can roughly guess who made me faint," Maki said. "To prevent them from blaming us for what happened today, I'll take my family away from the spotlight first."
"Kanako, you should also be careful not to get caught." A glint flashed in Maki's eyes. "You are very strong, and you will become even stronger in the future. Be patient for a while and improve your strength. Then you can continue to seek revenge."
Maki is a child who learned to be independent early on. In other words, her many years of experience in the Zenin family made her never have expectations of others.
But she is also not stingy in expressing her kindness and gratitude.
Kanako firmly held her hand and said, "It's a small matter. You are my sister, and your sister is also my sister!"
"My personal affairs are mine, so my sister's affairs are mine too!"
Maki wasn't expecting this kind of train of thought and was flattered: "Huh?"
Kanako: "Let's go, let's go find Mayi and your mother——"
She was excitedly discussing with Maki the plan to solve the problem when suddenly a tall figure appeared behind her.
In just a moment, all the abnormalities were slowed down in Kanako's perception. She raised her arm to block the punch, and the violent collision of flesh and blood created a huge wave in the air.
Maki realized it later and grabbed the dagger cautiously: "Who!?"
"You have a very good cursed tool." The black-haired man said as if no one was around.
Kanako narrowed her eyes. "Who are you? Are you the strongest of the Zenin family?"
The man chuckled. "Huh? The strongest... I've only been gone for so many years, and no one remembers me anymore?"
He held one of Youyun's handles, and Kanako held the other end. The two of them were stuck there, neither of them able to make a move.
The man's expression showed some surprise.
"No wonder you got Youyun." He had obviously made up some kind of story in his mind. "So they're the same kind. What's going on? Has the Zenin family started looking up to non-magicians?"
"Zenyuan Shener!" A blond boy appeared at the corner.
The blond man spoke very quickly, "You finally knew to go home! Could it be that the cursed spirit that spread rumors was deliberately created by you because you wanted to see me? Uh..."
The blond man looked at Kanako with extreme contempt: "Who is this woman with such terrible manners?"
Fushiguro Shier looked at the blond man and said, "You think too much. I never remember men's names. So who are you?"
A well-shaped figure appeared on Kanako's forehead: "Since you don't seem to be an adult, I'll forgive you this time... Wait, are you here to steal my Youyun too!?"
Blond man: “???”
The three of them looked at each other, two of them still holding on to You Yun, and they were completely not on the same chat channel.
Kanako was confused: "So who are you all???"
"The one who stole your things was Zenin Jyouji." Maki pointed, "And the one with golden hair is Zenin Naoya."
Kanako: "!"
He's the bastard who bullied Maki's sister!
Forgive the interruption, Kanako didn't care about anything else, she used Youyun as a fulcrum and flew up to kick.
He kicked Zenin Naoya hard on the forehead!
"Zenin Naoya, you ００!" Kanako shouted angrily.
Fushiguro Shijiro:?
Maki:!
【Author’s words】
Kanako really can't remember Fushiguro Shier, it's not a bug——
She had forgotten about this person the last time they chatted at the technical college. After all, Kanako only had eyes for plundering his assets.
