The bearer of ghosts and gods who return the spell

The high school seems to be more pleasant in the early morning. People like Soma Josuke who are accustomed to urban life can feel the difference here even more.

He couldn't help but think about how pleasant it would be if he controlled this place instead of those pedantic old men.

Thinking of this, Souma Josuke's body trembled uncontrollably.

"What a dangerous idea."

He patted his cheeks with both hands, pushing these unrealistic thoughts away.

When they arrived at the classroom, the other three people were already waiting in the classroom.

Seeing Soma Josuke enter the door, Miwa Kasumi was the first to wave to him, "Good morning, Souma-san."

He tried his best to put on a bright smile and said, "Good morning, everyone."

Mechamaru, who was sitting behind Miwa Kasumi, looked at him and nodded slightly without saying anything. He didn't know if he was simply afraid of strangers or if he had always been like this.

Zenyuan Zhenyi next to him stared at him expressionlessly. After just staring at each other for a moment, he involuntarily moved his eyes away.

As an adult with a mental age of 24, he dared not look at a female high school student. It was really an embarrassment to a time traveler.

There are only a few of them in the classroom, but the school has prepared many tables and chairs.

Soma Josuke randomly picked a seat by the window.

At this time, Miwa Kasumi suddenly came over and asked a little embarrassedly: "Souma-san, can... can you take a photo with me?"

"what?"

This sudden development stunned Soma Josuke. Before he could agree, Zenin Mayi suddenly stood up.

"If you want to take a photo, let's take a photo together."

"Okay, okay, Zhenyi, why didn't I know that you also like to take selfies before?"

"Stop being so nagging, Mechanical Pill, come here quickly."

"Wait, wait, wait!"

Later, Soma Josuke saw Miwa Kasumi quickly move her pocket and take out a black eyepatch...

No way......

"Hey, Soma-kun, can you take this with you first?"

Zenyuan Zhenyi was also speechless and could only secretly complain in his heart: If I had known this was the case, I would...

For this request, Soma Josuke couldn't think of any suitable reason to refuse.

In this way, for the first time, he took photos with others in total darkness, and was asked to perform several actions like a puppet on strings.

Don't tell me, it looks like that when it's filmed.

"Okay, okay, everyone, sit down."

The female singer wearing a shrine maiden costume clapped her hands and walked into the classroom.

Last night, the first-grade students received a gathering notice from her, saying that there was a special event today.

"Just as you received the notice yesterday, there will be a simulated actual battle today. The actual combat content is a 2V2 group battle."

"The actual battle is divided into red and blue sides, but it is not a simple team battle. To put it simply, the blue side needs to play the role of curse master and curse spirit respectively. The main goal is to take hostages, while the red side maintains the original status as a curse. On the division's side, the goal is naturally to find and rescue the hostages."

This surprised a few people, "Eh? Has this type of actual combat ever happened before?"

"This is also to simulate situations that may arise in the future. Let me explain the detailed rules first."

Under the detailed description of the singer, everyone easily understood the rules of this confrontation.

First, before starting, the cast of the curse spirit enters the designated 10-story abandoned building. The school will throw in a special curse corpse as a hostage. Except for the curse spirit, the other three people do not know the specific location of the hostage. If the curse spirit comes into contact with the hostage After that, the curse spirit cannot leave the layer, and a 5-minute countdown begins immediately.

Second, after the countdown starts, three people playing the role of Curse Master and Conjurer enter.Both the Curse Master and the Curse Master have the main goal of searching for hostages. If none of the three people come into contact with the hostages after the countdown ends, the Curse Master and the Curse Spirit will win.

Third, if the Curse Master touches the hostage before the 5-minute countdown ends, the remaining countdown will be halved. After the countdown ends, the Curse Master and the Curse Spirit will win.

Fourth, before the 5-minute countdown ends, if the conjurer comes into contact with the hostage, the red side will start a countdown with a time limit of 1 minute.During this 1 minute, if the Curse Master or the Curse Spirit does not touch the hostage again, the Curse Master side wins.

Fifth, within the 5-minute countdown, the curse spirit must continue to contact the hostage. If there is no contact for more than 30 seconds, the countdown will be suspended.If no one touches it within 30 seconds after the pause, the red side countdown will begin.

1. During the red side countdown, if the Curse Master and the Curse Spirit touch the hostage again, the blue side countdown will start, with a time limit of [-] minute.The two sides repeat this until the winner is determined.

[-]. If both players on either side lose the ability to fight before the countdown ends, that side will lose.

"Okay, now we can form groups freely and discuss which side we want to play."

After Soma Castle Assistant listened to the rules, he secretly began to compare which side had the advantage.

On the surface, this exercise is a 2V2 mode, but in fact it is a 2V1V1 situation, so in terms of numbers, the side of the magicians who can act together has the upper hand.

But the curse spirit can grasp the location of the hostages from the beginning, which is also a huge advantage. However, it is not easy to escape within the building and can only move on the first floor...

At this time, Zenyuan Zhenyi said: "Let's divide into groups first. After dividing the groups, we will discuss other things. Soma Josuke and I will be in a group, and Miwa you and Mechamaru will be together."

"Hey! Why did you decide to group them directly?" Miwaxia said with some complaints in her tone.

"Ho? Is it possible that you also want to team up with him? Don't you think that if he wears an eyepatch, he is really Gojo Satoru?"

"That's not true. Mecha Maru and I often team up, and our cooperation is enough. But you rarely team up with Mech Maru, which is not conducive to the execution of tasks!"

"It's not like I'm always assigned a magician I'm familiar with when performing tasks. This is also a kind of adaptive exercise for me."

Looking at the wooden man-like mechanical pill next to him, Soma Josuke felt a headache, so he said decisively:

"Actually, I want to go with..."

[Start triggering task selection]

【please choose】

[1. In the same group as Chanyuan Zhenyi and win the game, you will be rewarded with a random firearm type magic tool*1. 】

[2. In the same group as Miwa Kasumi and win the game, the reward will be a random sword type magic tool*1. 】

Just when Soma Josuke was about to say that he wanted to team up with Mechamaru, the bullet box of the system appeared again at this time, and it happened to be the magic weapon reward he wanted before.

Firearms and swords...

Why can't there be one more Gundam-type magic tool reward? Mecha-type ones are also fine...

After looking at these two rewards, as a lover of swords and weapons, he naturally wanted to choose the second one.

But he secretly glanced at Zenyuan Zhenyi who was staring at him...

If her technique was to target someone to death, Soma Josuke must have died several times.

Souma Josuke could imagine what would happen if he didn't choose her.

"Who do you want to be with?"

"Yeah, just let Soma-kun choose."

On one side is the vicious Zenin Mayi, and on the other side is Miwa Kasumi with "Choose me, choose me, choose me" written all over her face...

He let out a breath as if he had made up his mind, and looked at Kasumi Miwa calmly.

Chapter 19 Gambling

"Miwa-kun, let's form a team together next time we have a chance. Next time."

[The host has made a choice, please win the game. 】

"Hey, Soma-san, why?"

Soma Josuke didn't know how to respond and secretly glanced at Zenin Mayi.

The latter consciously stood in front of Sōma Josuke, "Miwa, since Sōma-san has already made his choice, you don't need to ask any more questions."

"Hmph, Zhenyi Baga Baga, we will definitely win, right, Mechamaru." Miwa Kasumi puffed up her face angrily.

"Well, I will definitely win."

Although Mechamaru had no expression, his confidence could be sensed in his tone.

At this time, Zenyuan Zhenyi continued: "In this case, let you choose a side first. Don't say that we bully you."

......

In the classroom, Zenin Mayi would glance at Souma Josuke next to him from the corner of his eye from time to time, but neither of them spoke.

Now is the preparation before the exercise. Each team has 5 minutes to make tactical arrangements.

But almost half of the time has passed, and they seem to have no desire to discuss it.

The first person who couldn't help it was Zenin Mayi, "Souma-kun, what do you think about the grouping?"

Soma Josuke raised his eyes and said, "I have roughly thought of several choices the other party will make. Since they choose the red side, there are probably three possibilities."

"The first one is that the two of them act at the same time, searching the building in one direction. The main goal is to catch the lone person. At worst, there is a 2V2 situation. This shows that they have strong confidence in their own strength. If they are lucky, they can create There was a chance for 2V1, but the efficiency was not high enough."

"The second method is for the two of them to search separately, with the goal of searching for the cursed spirit first, and engage in an encounter. No matter who they encounter first, they can call their companions to create an advantageous situation, and the search efficiency will be higher."

"The third type is that they will go directly to a certain floor, destroy the building, deliberately make a huge noise, and lure the curse masters among us there. They will catch the curse masters first and then act. This can prevent the curse masters from shortening the time and also can Create an advantage.”

"I think the third option is more likely. Which one do you think it will be, Zhenyi-san?"

Zenin Mayi looked at Soma Josuke who was analyzing carefully, and was stunned for a moment, "Are you thinking about this?"

"Huh? Otherwise? Although Zhenyi-san provoked Miwa-san before, I don't think they will be influenced so easily. They will definitely choose the plan with a high winning rate."

provocative......

Looking at his expression that didn't seem to be fake, Zenyuan Zhenyi couldn't tell for a moment whether he was pretending to be stupid.

She was also afraid that Souma Josuke might misunderstand about the previous photo shoots and team formation.

Soma Josuke glanced at him and continued: "I also know why Mayi-san insists on teaming up with me, otherwise I would be on the same team as Machimaru. You wouldn't deliberately let them win, would you?"

Zenyuan Zhenyi was relieved after hearing the first half of the sentence, but the words that followed made her feel a little unable to calm down.

What do you mean by "otherwise I would have chosen mechanical pills"? Is she bad?

"It's good that you're a half-assed auxiliary spellcaster and don't hold me back. Although your shikigami function is powerful, but now we are a two-person team, the advantage you can create is not necessarily better than mine."

Soma Josuke was unmoved by Zenin Mayi's words. Now he only cares about how to win this game.

"Then let's discuss countermeasures as soon as possible."
