December 24, 9 a.m., Osaka.
"Come on, come on, it's time to eat."
The auxiliary supervisor pushed the cart and distributed the bread and water.
Haihara Xiong bit the bread and said vaguely: "If the other party launches an attack now, wouldn't we be caught off guard..."
"Shut your crow mouth!" Atsushi Kusakabe glared at Haihara Yuo fiercely: "If the other party really pops out suddenly, I'll take it from you!"
Ming Ming looked at Gu Yan'an who was standing motionless on the roof of the building and sighed: "It's so unfortunate... you don't even have to eat?"
"Perhaps you want to lose weight? I heard that this kind of bread can easily make people gain weight. I saw a news a few days ago about a person who kept eating bread and gained dozens of pounds..."
The smile on Ming Ming's face became a little stiff.
"Haiyuan."
"Um?"
"Can you please shut up?"
"Why? I haven't finished speaking yet. I also went to the website to find that person's selfie. Wow, that belly is almost on the ground...ah!!"
Ming Ming stomped on Haiyuan Xiong's foot and said with a smile: "I said shut up, don't you understand?"
"……yes."
Mingming snorted coldly, glanced at the half-eaten piece of bread in his hand, and threw it away.
Looking at the retreating figure, Haibara wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued to talk eloquently to Kusakabe Atsushi: "Let me tell you, that man not only has a big belly, but also..."
Kusakabe couldn't avoid it and wanted to seek peace elsewhere, but Haihara Yuo followed him closely.
After a while, the huge amount of information almost made Kusakabe's head explode. He slumped on the ground and looked desperately at Haihara Yu's lips moving up and down.
On the other side, a white-haired kid squatted on the ground, staring at the bread that had been thrown away.
"Hehehehe, this is the bread that my sister has eaten... No, no, I will be called a pervert... I just don't want to waste food... No, no, my sister will hate me... Just lick it... No, no..."
Youyou's face was gloomy and uncertain, and she felt like angels and demons appeared on both shoulders, chattering incessantly into her ears.
…
December 24, 12 noon, Yokohama.
Otogu Youta looked around nervously, the hand holding the knife was shaking a little, and he kept wiping sweat from his hands on his pants.
"Young man, what kind of woman do you like?"
Hearing this slightly familiar question, Yigu looked up blankly.
Ninety-nine Yuki asked with a smile: "What, are you scared?"
"No, a senior also asked me the same question..."
"Tongtang, he is my disciple...but what I mean is, are you frightened by the upcoming battle?"
Yigu opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Jiujiu Youji squatted down and said to himself: "Fear is a good thing... It was engraved in the blood of human beings by the ancestors and passed down to us as a gift to the younger generations."
"No matter who you are, you will feel fear. Fear allows us to run away from danger and protect ourselves. But there are always some people in this world who are obviously afraid, but still want to complete what they must complete. That's why everyone says, they very brave."
Jiujiu Yuki touched Otogu Yuta's head: "Young man, you are already a brave person just because you can come here!"
"Yes...really?"
"Of course! Go get something to eat quickly, don't get hungry due to a fight then!"
"Oh." Yigu nodded blankly.
Then he was surprised to find that his hands stopped shaking.
…
December 24, 2 pm, Tokyo.
Gojo Satoru was lying on the rocking chair, enjoying the winter sunshine.
Whenever the sun cannot shine directly on him, the rocking chair will automatically float up and land in the most suitable position.
Zenyuan Maki couldn't stand Gojo Satoru's lazy state:
"...What's going on with this guy? Is he really the strongest?"
"Salmon." Inujuan also expressed doubts.
"Shh! Keep your voice down." Panda quickly raised his finger and put it in front of his lips: "Of course Teacher Gojo is the strongest. This is recognized by the magic world."
Zen Yuan Maki curled her lips: "Why? Just because he can sleep on the battlefield?"
"How should I tell you..." Panda scratched his head and couldn't hold back a word for a long time.
He and Xinji controlled the wheelchair and came to Maki: "Let me say it. The most intuitive way to say it is that Teacher Gojo defeated Teacher Gu. Do you understand?"
"Defeat that pervert?" Zenyuan Maki was stunned.
Although she usually hates Gu Yanan so much that she gnashes her teeth, but she also knows that the gap in strength between the two is probably as big as a natural chasm.
And the eyepatch in front of him, who looked like a delinquent, actually defeated Gu Yanan?
"Aren't the two of them... both special?"
"There is also a gap between special levels. Yi Gu is also a special level. Do you think he can beat Teacher Gu?"
"……Go on."
"Let me tell you one more thing." He and Xinji said after thinking for a moment: "You should know that the magic world went through a change in 2006, right?"
Zenyuan Maki nodded: "I know, but I don't have a deep impression. I just remember that there were suddenly many adults in the house at that time..."
"That's because the conservatives who opposed the change at that time wanted to stop the reform by going on strike. In order to continue the reform, Teacher Gu, Teacher Gojo, and Teacher Natsura of Kyoto took over all the tasks that should be carried out by Mission performed by conservatives.”
"But later, for some reasons, Mr. Xia You became the principal of Kyoto High School, and Mr. Gu also needed time to solve the problem of conservatives not cooperating... From 2008 to 2010, more than 60% of the curse incidents nationwide were It was completed by Gojo-sensei alone.”
Zenyuan Maki said in disbelief: "A person?"
"Oh, two people to be precise, and an auxiliary supervisor."
"..."
"Understand, this is the weight of being the strongest... He is called the strongest because he is Gojo Satoru."
Zenyuan Maki looked at Gojo Satoru lying on the rocking chair again.
The strange thing is that this time I saw some strong aura.
Look at his mysterious eye patch, look at his strong figure, look at the raised corners of his mouth...
Wait, isn't he sleeping? What are you laughing at?
Gojo Satoru turned over.
Haha, keep praising! do not stop!
…
December 24, 6 pm, Kyoto.
Xia Youjie has released more than two thousand curse spirits and put them into sleep all over Kyoto.
Although Xia Youjie has an absolute master-slave relationship with the curse spirits subdued by the curse spirit manipulation technique, it is really unrealistic to accurately control thousands of curse spirits at the same time.
By operating a single spell spirit, you can do whatever you want it to do. But once it becomes plural, the difficulty of manipulation will skyrocket.
Xia Youjie could only give some simple orders to these thousands of cursed spirits, such as attacking and retreating.
If you want to give more complex commands - such as chewing bubble gum, rocking a hula hoop, jumping 100 ropes and then slapping Gu Yanan - such commands are incomprehensible to them.
Xia Youjie asked the curse spirits to remember the auras of the monsters that attacked Tokyo High School, and gave the order:
Do not attack humans.
If you encounter a creature with this aura, attack directly!
Xia Youjie considered the situation of curse masters, but these low-level curses could not distinguish the difference between curse masters and curse masters, so he simply gave up.
"Master Xia You, please have something to eat." Mimiko came forward with a bowl of instant noodles.
Xia Youjie waved his hand and smiled gently: "I'm not hungry, you can eat."
"I've eaten all..." Mimiko put the instant noodles on the ground and asked carefully: "Master Xiayou, are you worried?"
"Me?" Xia Youjie was stunned for a moment, then looked ahead without saying a word.
After a long silence, Xia Youjie said, "What on earth am I here to do?"
You obviously hate those monkeys so much, why do you still come here and risk your life?
Xia Youjie looked at the magicians who were busy preparing for the battle, and a thought emerged in his heart that even he was unwilling to look at directly:
Is it really worth it?
Mimiko hesitated and said, "Aren't you here... to protect us?"
"..."
Xia Youjie looked at Mimiko in shock.
"Yes, did I say something wrong? I'm sorry..." Mimiko was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.
"No, no, Mimiko, you are right...haha, hahahaha..." Xia Youjie suddenly laughed up to the sky, not caring about the strange looks from the people around him.
The laughter echoed in the empty streets and lasted for five or six minutes.
Xia Youjie stood up, his eyes no longer confused, and he became more energetic than before:
"Mimiko, I won't let any of you die."
…
December 24th at 9pm.
A black ball appeared simultaneously in the sky over Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Yokohama.
As the sphere cracked, numerous monsters mutated from human corpses rained down on the battlefield!
"Born from darkness, from darkness to darkness."
The auxiliary supervisors chanted the incantation, and each other's incantations connected together:
"Purify away all the filth and residue."
A huge barrier enveloped the four cities, locking the spellcasters and monsters together.
The auxiliary supervisors did not leave.
They lowered their heads and prayed silently:
"Purify away all the filth and residue."
