Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 69 Variation
The light of the knife flashed, and the attack of the levitation armor stopped.

Soya landed on the ground, and the helmet with two horns rolled down and hit the floor in front of Hongko Yoshikawa heavily.

Boom!
"..."

She sat slumped, her body trembling.

The neck guard, which was made up of many pieces of armor, was split by Soya with a single blow, and bounced around.

The evil spirit had its head removed, and its body was stiff in place, still holding the knife, as if it was about to chop.

Soya snatched the sharp blade from its hand, and was about to say something to Yoshikawa on the ground, when the whole armor suddenly collapsed.

wow-

Shoulder armor, breastplate, leg armor, arm armor... After losing the inner support, they all fell to the ground.

At the other end of the corridor, Minami Noma, who got the news, just arrived.

"Songya..."

She looked at him holding two knives, and then at the stacked armor scattered on the ground.

"Mr. Mihara mutated into an evil spirit after he came into contact with the weapon, and he was killed by me. It has completely dissipated now."

"……yes."

Glancing at the end of the corridor where there were more footsteps coming, Soya turned back to find the scabbard to hold the sharp blade in his hand.

"..."

And Yoshikawa, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, did not recover from the thrill of surviving until this time.

"Wow--"

It was getting dark quickly.

Soya stood by the edge, looking up at the starry sky.

In the Japanese room behind him, Noma Minami, the old man Miyagi, and the priestess sent by the local shrine after receiving the news, were negotiating with each other.

"...The first target of the evil spirit's attack is you, Miyagi-san. Soya-kun also fights against the evil spirit to protect you. How can it be called sabotage?"

"But what has become of my armor, and my home!"

"It's not very serious. And if you survived the attack of the heavily armed evil spirits this time, maybe you have put all your luck in the rest of your life into it. You should stay away from this old bone."

"What are you talking about!"

"...Miss Noma, please stop fanning the flames."

Another mess.

The whole matter was clear at a glance, the client was at the scene of the incident, and the explanation had already been explained two or three times, but Miyagi was stubborn, Soya really didn't want to bother.

And, they could have left long ago.

Miss Asahina, the maiden sent by the local shrine, said that they would take over the matter after learning the whole story. However, Noma Minami couldn't understand the old man Miyagi's messing around, so he stayed.

"Songya."

He thought it was his turn to explain to Miyagi again, but when he turned around, Noma Minami asked him to go back to the car first.

"Okay, what should I do here?"

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

"I can't rest assured if I leave it to Ms. Noma."

Minami Noma glared at him, then moved closer, and whispered, "Don't worry, Asahina is my friend, and I'm helping her now."

"..."

Dare to feel that she has been provoking the old man verbally, but she is actually playing a white face.

"Won't it have the opposite effect?"

"If you still want to go back in my car, take this sentence back now."

"... how long will it take, I'm a little hungry."

"Don't worry, it's coming soon."

Minami Noma winked at him, "I will treat Asahina later~"

Soya looked at the maiden and the old man in the house again, then turned around and went to the parking place.

The car was parked not far away, and the white body could be seen at a glance under the moonlight.Opening the car door, three pairs of eyes looked over.

"How is it?" Kirino asked.

"We are still negotiating for now, but it should be soon."

He said, then looked at Yoshikawa who was sitting in the innermost place, "Is Miss still crying?"

"..."

The crumpled tissue was thrown out.

Soya raised his hand to catch it, squeezed it twice, and found that the tissue was dry.

"It's too much, Soya." Akane Kirino said, "Hongzi also went back because she was worried about Soya."

"sorry."

He stood in a position where he couldn't get up or down, and Akane Kirino pulled him into the car, "Go inside and talk to Hongzi."

Looking at each other, Yoshikawa moved a little to the side, and he sat down beside her.

"Is Yoshikawa okay?"

"Ah."

She was only a little frightened and stimulated, and shed some tears, but her body was still intact.

"Although it was because Yoshikawa attracted the attention of the evil spirit that I was able to find a chance to end it, but this is still too dangerous. Next time I say run away, don't look back."

He spoke nicely, and Yoshikawa's expression softened a lot.

"Well...I see."

Akane Kirino in front also turned her head and chatted with the two of them.

While chatting, she asked:
"Speaking of which, why did Mihara-san suddenly attack Miyagi-san?"

"Mutated."

Soya explained to the two, "Spiritual bodies are like ordinary people who have completely lost their immunity. They are easily affected by the environment, and any factor may cause them to mutate. And this mutation is irreversible."

Yoshikawa looked at him, "So, Mr. Mihara..."

"It should be stimulated by the knife."

Soya talked about his guess: "People who like Warring States armor, even if they don't have a specific object of hatred, will have a more or less aggressive mentality, fantasizing themselves as generals of the Warring States era, fighting bloody battles on the battlefield. "

"And at that time, Mr. Mihara was wearing that contemporary outfit. After getting the weapon, it may have just activated a certain fantasy in him, which caused an irreversible mutation in himself."

The two girls looked at each other.

He paused for a moment, then continued: "Fortunately, only temperament is mutated."

"Spiritual bodies are inherently unstable. If Mr. Mihara imagined himself to be a three-headed and six-armed demon king, a demon god, then even if he couldn't change completely, his body shape would undergo considerable changes... In that case, I would be alone. I'm afraid people can't deal with him."

Akane Kirino realized something, "Is this the feeling of the criminals who committed the same behavior because they came into contact with comics or games with violent elements?"

"Tirino can understand the reason for the mutation of the spirit body in this way, but for the living people, it is nonsense."

Soya has no expression on his face, "As long as there is a trace of rationality, people can distinguish the difference between reality and fantasy. Comics or games are just the most bullying part of all the so-called 'criminal impulse' elements."

"What element..."

"It's nothing."

Soya didn't want to say more on this topic, but he still couldn't hold back.

"As long as you are alive, it doesn't matter whether you treat people or things, or the environment. People have a strong endurance."

Akane Kirino blinked, "Really."

Soya nodded, "Live well."

"What did you say all of a sudden..."

"Not only Yoshikawa, but also Kirino." He changed the topic, "If you encounter such a dangerous situation again, I will let you run away, and you must not turn back."

"Don't try to save me. Only when you are not here can I concentrate on protecting myself."

"..."

The two looked at each other, and they both understood that he was just about to say "you are a burden".

"I see."

After explaining this, Soya relaxed a little, leaned back, and looked out the dark car window.

"It's almost seven o'clock... Has Yoshikawa contacted his parents?"

"I've contacted you. I said it's at Qian's house."

"Is this an impermissible situation?"

"No. But telling the truth will make them worry, and it will take more time to explain. Why don't we just say it's at Akane's house."

The two girls looked at each other and smiled, and he smiled too.

"What a flexible top student."

After waiting for a long time, Minami Noma returned to the car, together with Ms. Asahina, a shrine maiden from the local shrine.

"It's finally resolved."

She stretched her waist, started the car, and looked back at the students behind.

"Miss Asahina said that she is treating guests to barbecue!"

"Great!"

"Eh? Anan, I've never heard of such a thing..."

Soya, who was always worried that he would skip a meal, was drowsy while waiting, and was woken up by their shouting.

"Feel sorry……"

He found himself leaning against Yoshikawa's body unknowingly, and sat up straight again.

She looked ahead and moved her numb arm.

"fine."
