Anime: Desolate Darkness

In a residential area six kilometers away from Sobu High School, there is a two-story building with a luxury car parked in the yard that does not quite match the house. That is Takumi Kimura's car.

The two people who were supposed to be in the car had already entered the house.

The exterior of this house looks inconspicuous and is no different from other residential houses around it.

Not only the outside, but also the interior is ordinary. Apart from some ordinary furniture, there is nothing eye-catching.

But if there really was nothing special about it, why would Kimura Takumi buy it?

In fact, there is a secret basement hidden beneath the house.

After Kimura Takumi's renovation, the basement is now divided into two parts, one is the training room and the other is the research room. There is a wall in the middle, which has excellent sound insulation. No matter what happens on one side, the other side cannot hear it.

Takumi Kimura walked into the laboratory, where he recently conducted biological research.

Various experimental instruments and equipment were placed in the laboratory, and dozens of mice were kept in a cabinet nearby.

Different from other normal research laboratories, there are no research reports or records hanging on the walls here. After all, with his memory, he doesn't have to worry about forgetting anything.

As for why Kimura Takumi has the leisure to do research here instead of patrolling the streets, it is all thanks to Nanamiya Tomoon's [Evolution Trustee].

Let me ask you, with a "monster radar" available, who would run around aimlessly?

Nanamiya Chion was in the training room on the other side, which was specially built for her by Kimura Takumi for her daily training.

The room is filled with various fitness equipment and weapons, and many training plans and goals are hung on the walls.

After changing into a martial arts uniform suitable for stretching the body, Nanamiya Chione stood in the middle and closed her eyes. Her body trembled slightly with her breathing, as if preparing for the next training.

After taking deep breaths for more than five seconds, she suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were full of firmness and determination. Compared to usual, she was like a different person.

She took another deep breath and began to repeat in her mind the techniques that Kimura Takumi had taught her, and began her own training.

Her movements were smooth and natural, and each one was full of power and majesty. Her fists were as fast as lightning, and her legs were as swift as the wind. Her body left beautiful arcs in the air, as if showing her martial arts skills to the world.

During the training, she always maintained a calm and resolute look on her face. She did not give up because of fatigue, nor did she retreat because of difficulties.

Because she has a clear goal in mind, which is to become a person who is countless times stronger than Kimura Takumi. She has vowed that she will be strong enough to protect everyone!

She knew very well that fantasizing was useless and that only through constant training and constant challenging herself could she achieve this goal.

To be honest, it's nice to have this intention, but the reality always makes people feel powerless.

In this world, the improvement in skills can only help you deal with opponents whose strength is not much different from yours.

This is also the biggest problem facing Takumi Kimura right now.

His Mephistopheles has been stereotyped by those above him, and it is almost impossible for him to be promoted.

Human fear can only restore his energy, but cannot increase it.

One of the few ways to break the impasse right now is to rely on [Mephisto Armament] to absorb Nexus' energy.

But in that case, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

He couldn't be sure whether he could really escape the control of the maker after inhaling it.

If not, it will lead to a big mistake.

A few hours later, the sky darkened completely and it was night.

The black curtain covered the entire earth, and the stars of light passed through the night sky, like bright pearls dotted in the endless darkness. The moon hung high in the sky, shedding silver light, bringing a touch of brightness to the earth.

Ring ring ring~!

Inside the training room, the ringing of the cell phone alarm means that today's training has come to an end.

At this moment, Nanamiya Chione's body was already exhausted, and her sweat was so much that it seemed to have washed through her entire martial arts uniform, but a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

She knew that she had made some progress today.

After putting all the equipment back in place, she took her clothes and walked out of the basement and went to the first floor to take a shower.

After taking a shower, she went to the kitchen, drank the hot milk that Kimura Takumi had prepared for her, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hi~!"

After doing all this, she returned to the basement, took out her cell phone from her schoolbag, called Kimura Takumi, and told him that she had sorted everything out.

"Senior! Can you take me home now?"

"I'm coming."

Beep!Beep!Beep!

As soon as he hung up, the door of the laboratory opened, and Takumi Kimura, wearing a white coat, came out with a needle and cotton for drawing blood.

"Speaking of which, Senior, what is the purpose of doing this?"

As usual, Nanamiya Chion extended her right index finger.

"Nothing, just checking your physical condition."

As Kimura Takumi spoke, he began to operate. He first gently pierced the other person's finger with a needle, then squeezed out a small drop of blood and stuck it on the cotton.

"Oh." Nanamiya Chione didn't care too much and simply believed it.

After placing the cotton with blood in the laboratory, Takumi Kimura took off his white coat and drove the other person home.

On the way, Nanamiya Chione talked about Matsusaka Sato again.

"Hey, senior, what should we do with this knife?" She took out the fruit knife and looked at it, puzzled: "Should I take it to school tomorrow and return it to the other party? But if the discipline committee finds us at the door, it will be terrible, right?"

Speaking of this, she was a little curious about how Matsusaka Sato managed to bring this knife into school.

"Give me the knife, I'll handle it."

"Okay, I'll trouble you, Senior."

She was happy to have some free time since she didn't have to worry about anything, so she simply handed the fruit knife to the hand that Kimura Takumi extended.

Kimura Takumi took the knife and looked at it carefully (ps: always look at the road when driving), and found that the knife was specially sharpened and was much sharper than an ordinary fruit knife.

And judging from the gloss and marks on it, it is estimated that it was polished within the past two days.

Obviously, Matsusaka Sato's intention was not what Nanamiya Chione said, but just to scare people.

……

After arriving at the downstairs of Nanamiya Chion's apartment and dropping her off, Kimura Takumi drove away.

"Good night, senior! See you tomorrow!" Nanamiya Chione waved and shouted at the taillights of the car.

She didn't put down her raised right hand until the car went farther and farther away and disappeared around a corner.

"Yoshi! Next it's the turn of Sufianin SP Saturn VII!" As if to cheer herself up, she clenched her hands together and then used the airplane run to rush up the stairs.
