Anime: Desolate Darkness

The next morning, in Chiba, in a high-end apartment, Sakurajima Mai, wearing pajamas, walked out of the kitchen with hot milk and came to the outside of the living room.

At this moment, the TV in the living room was playing the incident of a Sobu High School student being murdered yesterday.

[Tokyo TV News report. On Thursday, May 5, at 2:9 am, students from Chiba City Sobu High School were attacked by a giant monster while on a school trip in the mountains of Taito Ward, Tokyo, resulting in 12 deaths and 121 injuries. Most of the survivors suffered from psychological phobias. We express our deep sympathy and regret for this.]

[What will be played next is a video recording of the incident obtained from some students’ mobile phones.]

As soon as he finished speaking, the TV started playing videos about Silbagun, showing how he overturned an entire bus as soon as he appeared, causing the first wave of deaths, and then he trampled students to death.

Of course, the bloody parts will be blurred.

In addition, not only Silbagun's figure, but also Gadi's guy appeared in the camera.

It must be said that these students are really brave. Even when they are facing life and death, they still have the mood to shoot videos.

And since they dare to do this when facing a monster that will cause their death, there will naturally be scenes involving Mephistopheles.

Unlike the last ultra-long-distance shooting, what is presented now, whether it is a monster or a giant, is basically shot at close range, and the camera is shaking, which better shows people the oppressive feeling of the huge monster in front of them.

boom!

"real or fake?!"

Watching the news on TV, Mai Sakurajima's pupils shrank, and she was so shocked that the cup in her hand fell to the ground, and the milk spilled all over the floor in an instant.

"Fortunately, I didn't attend..." she couldn't help but feel thankful.

Due to the need to deal with advertising and fashion magazine shoots, Mai Sakurajima applied not to participate in this school leave trip.

But it would be okay even if she went, after all, she belonged to the third group of students.

Just as she fetched the tools to clean up the milk and glass shards on the floor, she suddenly remembered something important!

"wrong!"

Mai Sakurajima hurriedly dropped the broom and garbage shovel in her hands and ran back to the room.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side.

On the hotel rooftop.

"Senior! Will this kind of training really be effective?! I want to learn combat techniques directly!"

Nanamiya Chione screamed in pain.

She was currently doing horse stance, holding two buckets of water in her hands. She had been maintaining this posture for more than half an hour.

"This is the basic skill. If your lower body is not stable, it will be useless to teach you anything. Unless you are a rare martial arts genius."

Kimura Takumi held a teaching stick in his hand and spoke in a very logical manner.

"How long do I have to practice this?"

Nanamiya Chione felt like crying but had no tears. Now she felt that all the muscles in her body were extremely sore and they could fall apart at any time!

"It depends on your performance." Kimura Takumi calmly said a despairing news, "When you can hold the bucket with both hands, without talking, looking around, and without shaking legs, for five hours in a row, you can learn other things."

"Ah?!" Nanamiya Chione stared at the other party in amazement, as if asking "Are you serious?!"

"No. According to the plan, it was supposed to be 10 hours, but considering that we may not have that much time, we can only shorten it by half."

He pushed with both hands, helplessly.

As he spoke, he recalled the time when he practiced horse stance, and he remembered that he maintained it for more than 15 hours.

Although the process was hard, fortunately it was not in vain.

"Wow~!" Thinking that she would have to train like this for a long time, Nanamiya Chione couldn't help but burst into tears.

"I've been told to try not to make any noise and to have a clear mind."

Kimura Takumi hit his opponent's calf with a whip.

!

The original soreness in her feet, coupled with the stimulation of the whipping, suddenly made Nanamiya Chione perk up, and she was forced to stop crying.

To become stronger! I endure!

She gritted her teeth, looked straight ahead, and exerted force with both hands to lift the bucket until it was parallel again.

Seeing these actions, Kimura Takumi nodded with satisfaction.

It’s okay to cry and it’s okay to complain. The only thing to be afraid of is that the other party will slack off.

At this moment, his pocket vibrated and music came out.

"Why did she call?"

Taking out his cell phone and looking at the four words "Sakurajima Mai" on it, Kimura Takumi felt a little confused.

"Hello? What's up Sakurajima-san?"

He answered the phone and walked to the edge of the roof.

There was silence on the other end of the line for a while, and then Sakurajima Mai's worried voice was heard.

"Mr. Kimura, are you... okay?"

Hearing this, Kimura Takumi felt a sense of déjà vu. It seemed that Futaba Rio asked himself the same question last time, right?

"Why does Sakurajima-san ask that?" he asked puzzled.

"Didn't you get attacked by a monster yesterday? Is the news on TV fake?" This time, Sakurajima Mai's voice was a little excited, thinking she was being fooled.

"The people in Group 4 were attacked. I was in Group 1. Didn't Sakurajima-san even notice that the school had groups?"

"Ah? I didn't participate in this school trip, so I don't know..."

As soon as these words were spoken, Kimura Takumi suddenly realized.

"I see, that makes sense. But thank you Sakurajima-san for your concern. I'm fine."

Beep! Beep! Beep!

"..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone.

In a room in a high-end apartment, Mai Sakurajima threw her cell phone on the bed and threw herself on it.

Recalling the phone call just now, she grabbed the pillow beside her and covered her head with it, lying motionless like a dead fish.

"What am I...doing?" she murmured.

……

The Internet is buzzing with excitement at the moment.

The main reason is not that the students of Sobu High School were attacked by monsters, but about Mephisto's actions!

Because the scene of Mephistopheles intimidating students was also recorded!

Once this situation was broadcast, it immediately caused countless netizens to talk about it.

[Aren't giants friendly?]

[Giants actually attack humans?!]

[I told you that giants aren’t good people, right? I felt something was wrong the first time he appeared!]

[Isn’t it that student’s fault? He was the first to curse. Why are they all talking about giants?]

[It came late, causing so many innocent people to die, and yet he is not allowed to say a word? Is he that fragile?]

[If He doesn’t come, then we will all be dead, right?]

[So what?! It’s wrong anyway!]

……

A mid-range apartment building in Chiba.

Inside the room, Qian Xinshou looked at his sister Qian Shashouye who was typing on the keyboard non-stop, feeling somewhat puzzled.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

"I'm fine!"

That being said, her hands never left the keyboard!

At this moment, she is arguing with the crowd with her own meager strength.
