I have found out your real name

Chapter 1 Magical Girl and Monster

“…Psychologist Carl Jung’s archetype theory believes that common traces can be found in human beings’ collective images and mythological themes…”

The warm April wind made the students in the classroom drowsy, but Li Wu looked at the teacher who was chatting in class, looking like he was listening carefully.

In fact, his gaze fell on the teacher's slightly eroded head.

There is a line of white font floating there, which is very eye-catching against the blackboard.

[The Chinese teacher who will be completely bald in two or three years]

"I'm afraid the teacher doesn't know that such a tragic future awaits him... No, the most important thing now is to figure out what these words are about."

Until two weeks ago, Li Wu was an ordinary person about to enter high school.

I must talk about any special experiences, that is, due to the influence of my father's occupation, I spent the last three years of elementary school and my entire middle school career in a foreign country.

But not long before school started, he discovered that various writings appeared on the heads of the people in his sight.

The men walking in a hurry carrying briefcases on the street have the words "office worker" and "community animal" on their heads. The aunts talking and laughing with the vegetable baskets have the words "housewife", and the people sitting in the street have the words "housewives" on their heads. [High school students] chatting at an outdoor cafe, etc.

At first glance, it looks like the ID displayed based on occupation in the game, but when Li Wu was queuing up at a convenience store, he also saw the title "Idol Chef" on the cashier's head. This obviously has nothing to do with occupation.

He also looked at himself in the mirror, but for some reason no words appeared.

At first, Li Wu thought he was experiencing visual hallucinations, but the words were extremely clear and did not look like hallucinations at all.

Especially when he got close to the convenience store cashier several times and confirmed that he was really an avid idol lover, Li Wu thought that this might indeed be his superpower.

Superpowers are not necessarily about flying to the sky and escaping from the earth. The novelist's fictional Sherlock Holmes can infer the professional identity of strangers in an instant. The entire reasoning process is even completed unconsciously. Maybe he has similar abilities.

For example, he may have witnessed a cashier wearing an idol costume while shopping, which left an impression on his subconscious mind.

The ability to subconsciously label people according to their nature!

What a stereotype eye this is.

In short, at this time, Li Wu still believed that this ability could be explained by logic.

But then, something even more outrageous happened.

He looked away from the teacher who was still talking about prototype theory, and turned to look at the table next to him.

[Active Magical Girl~(^_)☆].

The font is pink Chinese with colorful clouds, and there are unexplained emojis at the end.

The girl at the next table was doodling in her textbook. She seemed to be aware of Li Wu's gaze. She raised her head and tucked a strand of black hair behind her ear, showing a somewhat embarrassed smile.

She probably thought Li Wu was reminding her to take classes seriously.

At the beginning of the school year, the class teacher asked everyone to introduce themselves, so Li Wu knew that the girl's name was Aoi Hoshikawa. She was beautiful and had medium-long black hair. He wouldn't be surprised at all if it said "Beautiful Girl JK" on the top of her head.

But it’s a magical girl.

And the abnormalities in this class don't stop there.

He looked at the girl sitting two seats in front of him, with short shoulder-length hair, who was sleeping soundly.

【vampire】.

The boy in the window seat in the second to last row of the classroom.

[Romantic comedy protagonist].

The girl on the right front is dressed fashionably and has blond hair.

[Subhuman race (mimicry)].

There are also other strange names such as [Phantom Thief], [Spiritual Physique Possessor], [Lost Dog in Romantic Comedy], etc.

Others had ordinary words like [Classmate A] and [Classmate B] on their heads.

Good guy, if all this is true, then Mr. Li is really lucky to be able to sit in the same classroom with you guys.

Li Wu was in a state of doubt, but he couldn't confirm his identity directly to others.

You can't suddenly say to your neighbor, "You don't want it to be revealed that you are doing magical girl stuff."

"...the hero who slays the dragon and the alchemist who exorcises evil spirits, these images are embedded in the cultural structures and myths and legends around the world...Okay, that's it for today's course."

The bell rang, announcing the end of the last class of the day.

Most of the freshmen who have just entered high school have not joined clubs yet, so after school they either pick up their schoolbags and go home, or they gather together in twos and threes to chat.

Aoi Hoshikawa, who was next to her, closed her textbook with a "snap" and rushed out of the classroom in a hurry. Li Wu's original intention of chatting and testing was in vain.

"Classmate Li Wu, have you thought about the club you want to join? By the way, I must be in the football club. Do you want to join us to sweat it out?"

The boy at the front desk turned around and sat on his chair to talk to him. He was muscular, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a strange hairstyle that looked a bit like an airplane head.

The words "Friends are football!" are floating on my forehead. 】Such a subtle and funny boldface text has broken away from the form of a noun.

His name was Mizushima Tsubasa, and the two quickly became familiar with each other due to the relationship between the front and back desks.

"I haven't decided yet, but it probably won't be the football department."

"Don't say that, we can burn our blood together, overcome powerful enemies, dominate the National College Football League, and then enter the World Cup!"

"The span is too big."

After chatting for a while, Mizushima suddenly said: "But it's better to go home early today. After all, a murder occurred, so you still have to pay attention to safety."

Attracted by the unusual words, Li Wu couldn't help but ask: "What murder?"

"Didn't you watch the news? It was reported the morning before yesterday that the body of a man was found in Kamagaya City next door. It is said that the victim was about the same age as us. His death was very tragic, and his internal organs were removed."

I've been troubled by the text I saw recently, and I really haven't paid much attention to the information from the outside world. But since it happened in the city next door, it should be unlikely to affect me.

If you meet the murderer, you might be able to identify him from the words above his head and bring him to justice.

But if you believe in the mysterious text, it means that you are indeed in a class full of weirdos.

Is Hoshikawa-san really a magical girl?

After saying goodbye to Mizushima, Li Wu, who was walking home from school, remembered that he had not taken any textbooks, so he turned back to school.

When he walked to the edge of the teaching building, he suddenly realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

Although school has been out for a while, it is impossible for everyone on campus to leave. At least there should be students involved in club activities and teachers who have not yet got off work.

But it was too quiet around here. This feeling is like being in the scenery of a stage play. On the surface, it is realistic and realistic. Once you realize the falsehood, the sense of dissonance will engulf you like a flood.

The moment he felt trance-like, the outside scenery changed.

We were still in front of the teaching building, but the sky was stained with blood red, and the blood color spread and connected with the ground, forming a canopy that enveloped the campus.

Then, like black ink poured into clear water, a ferocious monster suddenly appeared in the air.

Monsters like a giant eyeball with bat wings, monsters made of human and animal body parts, monsters with waving tentacles and huge mouthparts.

Just looking directly at the appearance is enough to have a huge impact on the human spirit, and in Li Wu's eyes, although they have different shapes, the same words appear above the body.

The bright red [Negative Realm Monster].

The instinctive fear in his body urged him to run away from these monsters, but the emerging monsters had already blocked the road ahead.

He could only be forced to run into the teaching building, hoping to survive for a while.

The strange thing is that these monsters did not chase him in and eat him alive as he imagined. Instead, they headed towards the right side of the teaching building as if they were not interested in him.

If you run out now, you may not encounter monsters, but the red sky still hangs over the school, and the exit may also be blocked.

After weighing it, Li Wu calmed down his breathing that became rapid due to nervousness, and decided to stay in the teaching building to observe the monster's movements.

So, he knelt down in front of the window on the right side of the first floor of the teaching building and cautiously looked out.

He saw the girl slapping the monster on the playground.

Wearing a white coat with black edges on the cuffs and hem, wrapped with gorgeous satin ribbons, and a lavender rutted dress, revealing her slender legs, a sky blue shawl hangs down on her chest, and her long black hair is tied with Red bow-shaped headband.

The most important thing is [Active Magical Girl~(^_)☆] with a pink Chinese cloud on her head.

This is definitely Hoshikawa-san!

She is a real magical girl!

Although the style of the painting is a little wrong: what she holds in her hand is not a wand, but a weapon that looks like a double-edged ax that is taller than a person. The ax blade is as wide as a shield, and there is a diamond-shaped metal with patterns on the surface between the two blades. The blocks are connected, and the central axis passes through the metal block, forming a barrel-like opening at the end.

At this moment, the murderous weapon was waved by the petite girl like a toy, creating flying flesh and blood on the playground. Every time it hit the monster, it seemed that you could hear the scream of the heavy object cutting through the air and the wail of the flesh deforming. .

Soon she was moving so fast that Li Wu could no longer detect it with his naked eyes, and he could only see the terrifying monsters being smashed away and crushed like rag dolls.

"Huh, although I'm a little shocked, Hoshikawa-san seems to be able to deal with these monsters."

"It's really shocking. I don't know which side is the monster."

Just as Li Wu breathed a sigh of relief, he was startled by the sound coming from behind, and he quickly turned around.

In front of her was a girl with short hair and glasses. She asked curiously: "Are you also a student who accidentally entered this place?"

Li Wu's face froze, and he said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Yes, I didn't expect anyone else to be involved here. I see that the monsters outside have gone to the playground, and there are people who can deal with them. Why don't we go out and see if we can leave?" School?"

Before he finished speaking, he had already started to walk out.

As he passed the girl, his left hand was grabbed.

She said eagerly: "No, there may be monsters coming out outside, so we should stay in the teaching building first."

Li Wu tried to shake off his hand: "I think there might be monsters in the teaching building."

However, there was no break away. The force coming from the hand was unexpectedly strong, and it was still tightening.

He sighed, turned around and punched the short-haired girl's glasses with his right fist.

The next moment, he was thrown away and fell heavily on the concrete floor.

His weight is not heavy by the standards of male high school students, but it is definitely not at a level that would be thrown away by ordinary girls of the same age.

"Ahem... this classmate, I have actually been practicing martial arts since I was a child. It was just an instinctive reaction when my hand was grabbed. Can I reconcile?"

This extraordinary girl with glasses took off her glasses with half of the lenses broken, and rubbed her right eye with some distress: "Violence is not good. But people are really curious, how did you see through me?"

Her figure gradually faded with the words, and finally disappeared into the air completely.

"What do you think?" Li Wu said, looking at a line of text still floating in the air.

[Yinpo (number of attacks: 1/2 times)]

The words in brackets appeared after he had just been punched. Although he was curious about what would happen if he was punched again, he still suppressed his thoughts of death, stood up and ran.

Yinha is the name of a kind of monster spread in the western region of the country called Sakurajima.

Also known as the Zitui Demon, legend has it that it often lurks in the corners of alleys or in blind corners of homes, waiting for children to abduct them when they come over, and then squeezes the oil out of them.

But looking at it now, the so-called "lurking in blind spots" may be a misunderstanding.

The reason why the Yinpo is difficult to detect may be that it really has the ability to become invisible.

After confirming the identity of classmate Xingchuan, Li Wu has completely believed in the authenticity of the text.

There is not much suspense in this chase. Li Wu's first choice was to run out of the teaching building. Judging from the monster's actions, she was somewhat afraid of the active magical girls.

However, there was a huge difference in athletic ability between the two sides. Yinpo's physical fitness was probably superior to that of humans. She easily caught up with Li Wu and threw him into the wall.

It didn't seem eager to kill him, but was playing a cat-and-mouse game, preventing him from escaping the building and forcing him to hide inside the classroom.

He also tried calling for help, but he couldn't summon the magical girl and could only be beaten by the hidden woman.

Now, Li Wu is hiding in a classroom in the first grade of high school, breathing heavily.

The monster was standing outside the classroom window and said to himself deliberately: "Ah, I can't find it. Where did you go to my dinner?"

Then there was a sound of footsteps.

But Li Wu could clearly see that the line of [Yin Po (number of attacks: 1/2 times)] was still floating outside the window, probably because he wanted to continue playing with his prey.

It doesn't know that it can see through "nicknames".

It rubbed its right eye as he punched it.

If it wasn't a pretense, then physical blows might still be effective against it - in fact, based on the standard of a magical girl who performs unparalleled performances in the playground, this monster's physical abilities are not too outrageous.

Li Wu lifted a chair and came to the window with a cautious attitude, as if he wanted to check whether the monster had really left.

Then he suddenly hit the bottom of the text with all his strength.

At least try what will happen after the number of strikes in the brackets is met!

As the glass shattered, Li Wu heard the sound of flesh colliding with stainless steel and the sound of pain in the tone of a girl with glasses.

He ignored the outcome and ran directly outside the classroom.

But before he could run far, a force far greater than before grabbed him and threw him back to the classroom through another unbroken window.

Glass shards were scattered all over the floor, and Li Wu felt warm liquid flowing out of his head and body. His back hurt badly, and a few bones were probably broken.

He struggled to half sit up and picked up a decent-sized piece of debris as a last ditch effort.

"You can actually see through my invisibility?"

Yin Po showed up and spoke in an angry tone for the first time.

"Forget it, no matter how you do it, you will become my food soon."

She walked towards Li Wu: "It's better to go back to Kamagani after finishing this meal. This city is really evil."

Kamaya...so she was also responsible for the murder Mizushima mentioned? Am I going to be eaten by this monster soon?

The desire to survive and the disgust for cannibals were mixed together, burning his brain like a flame. Coupled with the serious injury, Li Wu felt that he had become drowsy. He suddenly seemed to see twisted words appearing in front of him. .

[Yinpo (number of attacks: 2/2 times)]

[Extraction of story components: You encountered an unclean thing and resisted during the evil moment. 】

[Image sublimation]

He felt that many images came into his mind: a Taoist priest took out yellow paper and stuck it on the forehead of a zombie, a man holding a cross drove away the demons that possessed ordinary people, a woman dressed as a witch danced to drive away evil spirits, and a white-haired old man carrying two swords slashed Kill alien monsters...

[Prototype Extraction - Exorcist, loaded by default]

Yinpo stopped. She suddenly felt an aura of disgust and vigilance coming from the dying prey in front of her.

Li Wu raised the shard of glass in his hand, and his face was reflected in it, but the words were no longer invisible as before, but a line of writing that danced like flames appeared on the top of his head, reflecting the light cast into the classroom by the blood-colored sky. There is a red light underneath:

[The Exorcist (3% completion)].
