“Hehehe, there’s no need to hide your identity anymore, Void Blade User. I already know everything. Ever since you killed the monster hidden in the invisible boundary line by yourself today! I knew you were my destined contract partner!”
Can she see it too?!
After hearing Rikka Takanashi's explanation, Sora Hoshino's eyes widened and he felt like he had found a confidant. He thought that the other party was just suffering from a simple chuunibyou, but now it seems that is not the case.

Volume 1: Chapter 3: Cursed Spirit on the Train, Strange Tokyo
"Welcome to join us. We are only one member short now. I will find her within this week. I will ask Sister Jing to tell her superiors then. It is getting late, so we will take our leave now."
There were a lot of thoughts in his mind, and the only words that came to his lips were "welcome". Compared to inviting ghost members whose background he didn't know, Hoshino Sora still felt that he knew the person in front of him better.
After all, she was a character I knew from watching anime in my previous life. Even though it has been a long time, the moment I saw her face, Sora Hoshino still recognized her, the Evil King, True Eyes Rikka Takanashi!
I thought she was just suffering from a simple chuunibyou, but she actually clearly told me what she had done not long ago. In other words, in today's world view, the Evil King's True Eyes may very well be real!
After all, this is a strange world mixed with anime...
On the day when he awakened the system, the system left him a piece of text. This world was a collection of countless two-dimensional worlds, which brought together cultural products from various worlds and had a complex system.
That's why the world is full of weirdness.
Not only evil spirits exist here, but also cursed spirits and even monsters.
There was once a drunk man who saw a hundred ghosts parading at night on a quiet and deserted street.
At that time, he only felt that he was in a fog, walking forward in a daze, and all he saw were ghosts. When he came to his senses from the fright, the surroundings had returned to calm.
This incident was widely circulated at the time. Some people believed that the monster really existed, some thought it was just hype, and some thought it was just a drunkard's vision.
Various rumors intensified and finally turned into an urban legend. Tokyo is very big and the Kanto region is very vast. Because of many strange existences, tens of thousands of people disappear in Neon every year for unknown reasons.
"Why are you in such a hurry, Void Blade Master?"
On the other side, Hoshino Sora pulled Rikka Takanashi's wrist and walked to the stairwell from the third floor to the second floor. Perhaps because they were walking too fast, the girl pulled his arm and said breathlessly.
"Sorry, you must be Rikka Takanashi from the next class, right? I've seen you before. My name is Hoshino Sora, you can call me Hoshino or Sora, but please don't call me the Void Blade User anymore!"
Hoshino Sora scratched his face in embarrassment. I don't know why this guy always calls him the Void Blade User. It seems that even if he has special abilities, he is still a chuunibyou? Such a chuunibyou statement...
"I understand. You have to hide your identity, right? I didn't expect you to have noticed me so early. This must be the mutual attraction between the messengers. And your Void Slash just now was so cool!"
With her hands on her chest, she assumed the same posture as Sora Hoshino when she landed before. Rikka Takanashi looked at Sora Hoshino with admiration. That move just now really shocked her. It was not a move that an ordinary person could do!
Sure enough, they are of the same kind!
"You think so too! I spent the whole morning thinking about this idea, so that I can better kill the evil spirit with one blow! And not make myself too embarrassed."
That's right, he discovered the evil spirit in the morning. The guy was wandering around the campus, madly sucking the energy of students who had just finished exercising, in order to make himself stronger.
Those students whose essence was sucked away became even weaker, and one student even fainted from exhaustion in the morning. However, only Hoshino Sora knew that it was because a large amount of essence was sucked away.
Although this level would not be life-threatening for ordinary people, it would definitely pose a threat to health in the long run. He happened to have the ability, so he killed the ghost.
Walking down the stairs, leaving the school and heading for the tram station, the two began chatting as if they had met too late.
Because he had just awakened the system not long ago, Hoshino Sora didn't know much about this strange and dangerous world. Now that a senior has appeared, he naturally wants to humbly ask for advice.
However, the more he talked, the more he felt something was wrong.
Although the words the other party said were very lofty, those childish words had nothing to do with the world he knew. Also... he didn't feel any spiritual fluctuations from her.
"Are you really a psychic?"
Hoshino Sora expressed the doubts in his heart. Even if he was slow-witted, he realized that something was wrong. It seemed that the girl in front of him was just a high school girl with a second-year syndrome.
"I'm not a psychic, I'm the Evil King's True Eye! The moment I saw you, the Evil King's True Eye told me everything!"
"The Evil King's True Eye?"
Hoshino Sora pretended to be confused.
"The Evil King's True Eye uses the sacred heart to control the power of darkness. And I, who control this eye, am an existence called the Evil King's True Eye Envoy!"
With a meaningful expression on her face, she looked at the man in front of her, Rikka Takanashi took two steps back and posed, then stared into Sora Hoshino's eyes with her sharp eyes.
"I don't sense any spiritual power from you."
Hoshino Sora said with a frown.
"In that case, do you want to see it?"
"Want to look into my eyes?"
Rikka Takanashi said this and put her hand on her eye mask while moving towards Hoshino Sora. Her serious expression made the boy's heart beat a little faster.
Image: "Rikka Kotori (Chu 1712071856nd Edition)", Location: "Images/100400559-111492822-.jpg"
"That can't be true?! Then were my words just now offensive? Is she going to teach me a lesson?"
This thought emerged in Hoshino Sora's mind.
"Wait, aren't these just ordinary golden colored contact lenses?"
The next moment, Rikka Takanashi's eye mask opened, revealing her dazzling golden contact lenses. It looked really scary at first glance, but Sora Hoshino still noticed something was wrong because of an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.
"How dare you look down on me! No matter what, you have seen my eyes, so our contract is complete. We are Soul Mates who share the dark soul..."
"How on earth can you say such shameful words with such a serious face..."
Poking Rikka Takanashi's face with his finger, Sora Hoshino's eyes revealed a bit of helplessness. He thought the other party was a hidden big shot, but he didn't expect that she was even weaker than him.
But never mind, the Service Department is short of staff right now, and since the other party is willing to join, he has no reason to refuse.
What's more, Rikka Takanashi is cute in herself, and cuteness is justice. Even if she does nothing, it is a good choice to put her in the club as a mascot.
At the same time, the two came to the tram station. Looking at the tram coming in front of them, Hoshino Sora suddenly stopped and reached out to grab Rikka Takanashi's arm, his eyes full of vigilance.
In his field of vision, an irregular reddish-brown mass was hovering above the tram. The office workers inside the tram had fatigue written all over their faces. Threads of cursed power flowed out of their bodies and poured into the body of the monster above.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Hoshino Sora feels that as the cursed energy pours in, the size of the reddish-brown monster has grown a bit…
Suddenly, the reddish-brown monster twisted and two things like eyes looked over fiercely.
In an instant, all the hairs on Hoshino Sora's body stood up, and a sense of crisis rose from the depths of his heart, and he couldn't help but tighten his grip on Rikka Takanashi's hand a little.
Volume 1: Chapter 4: The Difference Between Evil Spirits and Cursed Spirits, Sister Gokawa Kotori
"It hurts...Sora, you're using too much force."
"I'm sorry, there was an evil being watching us just now, and I accidentally used a little too much force. Now he's gone."
Seeing Rikka Takanashi almost crying, Sora Hoshino quickly let go and apologized. Looking at the train slowly driving away in the distance, he felt relieved.
I reached out and pinched the base of my nose. This world is really becoming more and more dangerous.
Ever since the system was awakened, he could see weird things appearing every day. At the beginning, he could only see some weak weird things, but now they are getting stronger and stronger.
For example, the weird creatures lying on the train just now, maybe they should be called cursed spirits? Unlike ordinary evil spirits, they are created by human negative emotions, and become stronger by absorbing the curse power generated by negative emotions. Most cursed spirits can cast powerful spells.
The evil spirit is not good in this regard. The strength of the evil spirit is more inclined to the strength of the soul. To put it in the terms of the game, the evil spirit is a warrior and the cursed spirit is a wizard.
"An evil being... could it be someone sent by the Holy Counselor of the Invisible Boundary Management Bureau?!"
Ignoring the pain, Rikka Takanashi looked around with surprise, raised her hands in a defensive posture, and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that no one was staring at them.
"Saint Conditioner?"
Hoshino Sora asked in confusion.
"My sister, Touka Takanashi, looks like an ordinary housewife, but she is actually a saintly counselor of the Invisible Boundary Management Bureau. The evil existence you just mentioned is most likely sent by my sister to monitor me."
Rikka Takanashi spoke with a serious expression and an extremely cautious look. After hearing her words, Sora Hoshino remembered that she had an older sister who seemed to be a chef in a western restaurant with a hidden chuunibyou.
"may be."
Thinking that Rikka Takanashi couldn't see the cursed spirit, Sora Hoshino simply continued speaking along with what she was saying.
If it was just a suspicion just now, now he was almost certain that Rikka Takanashi was simply suffering from chuunibyou.
"Let's go, the train is here. Speaking of which, I don't even know where you live."
Looking at the tram that stopped in front of them, this time there was no terrifying cursed spirit lying on it, but a peaceful scene. The setting sun shone on the tram, forming a perfect and harmonious picture.
When Rikka Takanashi heard Sora Hoshino's question, she paused slightly, then looked up into the distance, as if she was thinking about a profound philosophical question.
"I live... in a corner... shrouded in darkness. Only those guided by the Evil King's True Eyes can find me." She answered in a mysterious and solemn tone.
Hoshino Sora looked at Rikka Takanashi's serious expression and felt helpless.
The tram moved forward quickly and soon dropped the two off at their destination. They happened to get off at the same stop, happened to go home from the same route, and happened to arrive at an apartment building.
"You live upstairs from me! I don't think I've seen you before. Did you just move in recently?"
Looking at Takanashi Rikka who stopped on the ninth floor, Hoshino Sora held his forehead and complained speechlessly, but why hadn't he seen her before? She lived upstairs and downstairs, and she was always there...
"Well, I moved here yesterday and am currently living with my sister. She said she lives with me, but in fact, she just wants to monitor me. This is also the usual practice of the Invisible Boundary Management Bureau."
"Okay, see you tomorrow then."
After hearing Rikka Takanashi's answer, Sora Hoshino remained silent. Although he had almost forgotten the plot of the original work, he still remembered the general setting that Miss Touka was a good sister.
In order to correct Rikka Takanashi's chuunibyou, he brought her by his side. Later, he learned that her chuunibyou was difficult to cure, and since it had little impact on her life, he did not intervene forcibly.
"See you tomorrow! Void Blade Master!"
"I told you not to call me by that nickname!"
Hoshino Sora said helplessly. The moment the door closed, he saw the girl's cunning smile. The dissatisfaction in his heart immediately dissipated a little. He turned around and went downstairs silently and opened the door of his own room.
"Onii-chan, welcome home~"
A sweet loli voice came from the house, and a petite beautiful girl with red hair, twin ponytails and a white bow on her head was jumping towards him.
Image: "Gokawa Kotori (Shira Kotori)", Location: "Images/1712066679-100400559-111493284.jpg"
"Kotori, slow down or you might fall."
The person in front of him is Kotori Itsuka. I heard that she is the daughter of his father's friend. Her parents died in an accident five years ago. She is now fostered in their home and is considered his stepsister.
When they were young, Kotori wasn't very close to him because her parents were around.
But since her parents went abroad for research two years ago and left Kotori in his care, their relationship has progressed rapidly. Now, she will come up to him and ask for close contact when she sees him.
"I'm hungry. Brother, you came back so late today. Who is that girl downstairs? I saw you two came up together just now. Where is she now? Did you find a girlfriend? "
Thinking of the scene she had just seen from the upstairs window, Kotori Itsuka couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and asked about the doubts in her heart, with a hint of scrutiny in her eyes.
"No, she is a member of my club and happens to live upstairs from us, so she came back with us."
"What club?"
"Serving Club, what would you like to eat tonight?"
"Serving... Brother, are you finally going down this path? It's against the law to force a girl to do that kind of thing... I want to eat curry chicken drumstick rice tonight."
"What are you thinking about, little girl? The core purpose of the Service Department is to help and save those who have lost their way. It's not what you think..."
Hoshino Sora came to the kitchen, took out chicken legs from the refrigerator, deboned them and cut them into small pieces, then cut carrots, potatoes, onions and a small amount of green peppers. While cutting vegetables, he spoke to Itsuka Kotori, his voice full of helplessness.
"I don't want to eat green peppers... um..."
Looking at the green pepper on the chopping board, a resistance expression appeared on Gokawa Kotori's face, and her mouth drooped. Just as she was about to take the green pepper away, Hoshino Sora immediately raised her hand and gently knocked her head. At the moment she squatted down and covered her head to defend herself:
"Don't be picky about food. Green peppers can provide vitamin C, promote appetite, dispel cold and dampness, and are a very good ingredient.
And with just a few green peppers, you can hardly taste their original flavor against the whole pot of curry, so just eat them obediently. "
"Well, Onii-chan is so naughty!"
After hearing what Sora Hoshino said, Kotori Itsuka knew she couldn't resist, so she started to hit Sora Hoshino's back in a coquettish manner.
Naturally, Hoshino Sora didn't care about such a weak fist. He quickly added all the ingredients into the pot and covered it with a lid. After doing all this, his waist suddenly bent down.
Volume 1: Chapter 5: Night Hunting, the Duty of an Exorcist
"Kotori, my brother has contracted a virus that causes him to lift up girls' skirts uncontrollably if he can't cook properly... Hurry up! The virus is about to break out!"
"What did you say!?"
Although his fists were weak and powerless, it was not a good thing to be hit like this all the time. Hoshino Sora pretended to be controlled by the virus and fought against it desperately.
