The Melaleuca Routine of Dominating the Devil

: A weapon passed down from generation to generation in the Povino family.The person hit by the shell will exchange with himself ten years later, and the duration is 5 minutes.

Machima learned of the existence of this special weapon when she received the Nimmori expansion pack update.Lanbo and his little friends have fought in front of him too many times, and she has also seen with her own eyes how Lanbo used a rocket launcher to cross over ten years later, and then "carry out revenge" for little Lanbo.

Since the comedy effect is full every time, Maqima doesn't pay much attention to the props held by Rambo-and the duration is only 5 minutes, which is too short.Even using a ten-year bazooka to travel to the future of the story line can't do much, so she didn't pay too much attention.

Until the ten-year bazooka shell hit her right above the head.

The feeling of being hit by the bazooka is not uncomfortable, the smoke billows up, and Mazima only feels that her whole body is light, floating on the clouds as if weightless.The dense purple smoke completely blocked the sight, and when her body suddenly gained a center of gravity and began to fall, she realized that this magical time-limited time travel had begun.

Hint: You are using a special item.

Countdown to persistent effects: 04:59.

What will she be doing ten years from now?

Has Machima collected the gun devil's meat?Have all the demons in Japan been defeated?Is this messy world completely peaceful?Players looked at the gradually dissipating fog, and couldn't help but have a little more expectation for the future world.

And vaguely, she didn't touch the question buried in her heart.

——Ten years later, is it still the player himself?

Or, ten years after switching back to the original timeline, is it just a period of game simulation data?

What interrupted her thinking was a sudden buzzing sound.

It's the roar of a chainsaw turning.

Before the smoke had completely dissipated, there was a sharp and flashing electric saw, which suddenly cut through the maze in front of us!

Maqima's pupils shrank, and she instinctively raised her arms to resist!Almost at the same time, she was annoyed by this conditioned reflex action: How can a human body block an extremely lethal heavy weapon?Even if there is a handy weapon like Hibari Kyoya now!

Do you want to open the game panel to pause time?Also too late!

The crazily turning saw blade was close in front of her eyes, and she could almost see the bloody scene of herself being cut to pieces by the chain saw and her limbs were severed!

"No..." There was a faint breath between her lips and teeth, and she couldn't help closing her eyes.

The next moment, the sound of the chainsaw near my ears stopped.

The golden circle eyes opened, staring straight at the chainsaw blade less than five centimeters away from the tip of the nose.It was too close, and the jagged teeth were filled with the smell of a powerful demon, stronger than the bat demons she had encountered before, and she urgently needed to keep a safe distance.After stepping back, I realized that I was sitting on a huge work table.

Machima ten years later...was actually on the same table before?

"...So it's you."

It was a slightly hoarse male voice that freed her from the confusion.The shocking chainsaw was removed, and when the last trace of smoke cleared, a tall young man with blond hair and a white shirt stood in front of him.

The young man looked about 25 or [-] years old, neither human nor demon, exuding a wonderful smell of a mixture of demons and humans.He raised his head slightly, and his frowning expression was full of decadence and frustration that did not belong to this age.Although it seemed a bit surprised by the appearance of Maqma ten years ago, it was more like dissatisfaction that the plan was disrupted.

—The plan was disrupted.

Machima calm down, what plan would require a chainsaw?

"I didn't expect that it would be Miss Macchima from ten years ago... Now I'm in trouble."

Having said that, the young man didn't look like he was really troubled, but walked back while grabbing his hair.The chainsaw that nearly chopped her in two just now was nowhere to be found.Machima took the opportunity to look around, the messy arrangement of tools, the spacious and confined space, she was probably in a garage or something like this stranger.

"Do I know you?"

"Don't you know? It seems that Miss Macchima ten years ago is still so busy, and I haven't met the me ten years ago..." The young man folded his arms and seemed to be thinking. "Ten years ago today... Oh, Miss Machima is still looking for the meat of the Gun Demon, right? I really miss it~ It's been hard to travel around."

"..."

The amount of information exploded as soon as he opened his mouth. Even Maqima knew that he was collecting pieces of gun demon meat. How could that be?Obviously she didn't reveal anything.

The young man's understanding of her was almost revealed on the surface, Maqima had to look away from the surroundings, and stopped on the face of the yawning young man.Shark teeth, blond hair, darker red eyes.With such a clear feature, she couldn't find anyone who could match her from her memory.

No, it seems that there is such an impression... But it is too vague, no matter how hard she searches in her brain, she can't remember when she provoked such a mysterious person.

Machima glanced at the countdown timer indicated by the game. 3:48, less than 4 minutes before going back.

"Are you counting the time to go back, Miss Macchima?"

Not far away, the young man standing opposite her asked as if he could read minds.Although she looked quite careless, those crimson eyes were staring at her closely, as if she intended to not let go of even a slight expression.

"Ten years of bazooka probably

5 minutes long?It's rare to meet Miss Macchima from ten years ago, so let's reminisce about the old days. "

"Reminiscing about the old days?" Mazima finally spoke. "It's obviously you who came here with a chainsaw just now, right? If you hate me so much, why bother to talk about the past again."

"How could I hate Miss Machima! I won't do much during this time, so don't be nervous." The young man waved his hands like a rogue, "Look, the chainsaw is gone, it's gone! It won't happen again Take it out, don't worry!"

"...Who are you and what do you want to do?"

"I'm not saying that, I just want to catch up on the old days. After all, it's been a while since I saw such an energetic Miss Mazima..."

The young man scratched his chin, and he finally looked away from the pink-haired woman, his wandering eyes were still showing embarrassment. "As for my identity... tsk, will it change the world line if I say it now..."

"If you don't want to say it, forget it." Mazima interrupted the other party's dawdling.She finally realized that something was wrong.Usually, the game would pop up the introduction of the character at the first time, but this time it didn't show anything - the young man in front of him, who couldn't figure out the details, stood in front of her like a bug that had been ignored by the game.

With no identity, no known abilities or goals...not even a name, Machima knew nothing of him.

Ironically, the young man knew her clearly.One by one, she called "Miss Machima" intimately, and even the eyes she cast when she was silent were full of nostalgia.

"Miss Machima, who looks at me so seriously... It's been a long time."

The young man murmured to himself in a low voice, and even a little light oozes from the corners of his eyes.Are you going to cry?She was shocked by the youth's inexplicable reaction. "I don't know if the body shape has changed? The version ten years ago should be smaller..."

He took a few steps forward and opened his arms enthusiastically as if wanting to measure Mazima's figure.But it stopped before taking a few steps. "Uh, don't put on such a scary expression, Makima, I just don't come here..."

"Miss Macchima with a stern face, it's been a long time too..." the young man sighed. "I really miss it..."

"Stop talking about wasting time!"

Machima, who was described as having a "stern face", has actually reached the limit of her inner tension.Ten years later, the situation is too unclear, and everything is extremely unpleasant.The man in front of her seemed to be underwhelmed in her words, but in fact he was able to handle the whole process with ease, which made her feel restless and anxious.

Machima decided to use the ability directly.The golden circle eyes stared straight at the young man who was grinning and showing shark teeth, and all her thoughts were on him.

"Who are you? Tell me your identity."

The smirk on the young man's face gradually disappeared.The game didn't prompt Mazima to dominate successfully, and he didn't answer immediately, but stared at her with sad eyes.

"Are you so used to using force to dictate to others, Miss Marchma?" He sighed. "As expected of a dominating demon."

Tip: Players please note that your character introduction has been updated.

Countdown to persistent effects: 02:19.

……

The final piece of the identity puzzle has been filled.Looking at the updated character card, Maqima felt nothing in her heart: I really am not human.

In fact, the first time she saw the suffix "Devil Tendency" appearing in the character card, she somewhat had a premonition that this would happen.Other demon hunters rely on sacrificing their organs to maintain their contracts with demons, but she is the only one in the Public Security Headquarters who has no specific contract demons.She has seen humanoid demons before, as long as they possess human corpses, demons can also transform into demons; demons who are good at transformation probably also exist.But what troubled Mazima most at the beginning was the name of the demon she really belonged to.

Command the devil?Dog training devil?If it is really a demon, based on the consideration of her own ability, Mazima guesses that she is probably a demon of the nature of concept or human behavior.However, the name the young man uttered made her feel the connection with the original power for the first time.

.

As a player, she has no fear of the world.Naturally, she couldn't understand how worried others were about the demons or unknown creatures in this world.However, the instinct of fear is inherent, and all creatures that can arouse the consciousness of self-protection will subconsciously escape.Because of fear, they want to escape to save their lives; because of fear, they subconsciously surrender and be dominated by creatures of a higher level.

In this game, it is Macchima who becomes the creature one level above.The concept of domination is ubiquitous, as long as there are people in this world who are afraid of being dominated and used, then Machima, who is the dominating demon, can last forever.

Theoretically, powerful dominating demons can rely on this concept to dominate everything in the world.But Maqima was defeated while clarifying her identity: the blond young man with unknown background in front of her was completely unaffected by her abilities.

The reason probably stems from the subtle breath on his body.That smell was neither human nor demonic.

Machima remembered the chainsaw that appeared in the first crossing.If she recalled carefully, she remembered that the sharp and cold chainsaw was not held by the young man...

——Instead, it grew on his arm.

The pink-haired woman's eyes fell on the arm of the young man in front of her.The white shirt the young man was wearing was roughly rolled up (most likely the standard shirt of the Public Security Headquarters), and there was nothing on his bare/naked arms.And he himself is still babbling. "Miss Macchima has been really powerful these years. She has done a lot of great things to maintain world peace, not only

Japan, even the whole world, you can hear your name as far as Italy..."

"...A workaholic like Ms. Mazima, who chose to get married back then shocked everyone..."

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me your identity, Chainsaan." Machima interrupted the young man.As she thought, it was almost a blink of an eye to speed up the 5 minutes, and there was one minute left, and she didn't want to listen to useless information.

"Tell me, how long did it take me to collect the meat of the Gun Demon, and where else can I find it in Japan? Did the Gun Demon finally show up?"

The blond youth stopped talking.He lowered his eyebrows, and looked at her again with that... the eyes of a dog being kicked for no reason.Mazima pursed her lips, and she moved her eyes slightly. "answer my question."

"I have a request……"

The young man weighed his words and spoke slowly. "Miss Macchima ten years ago, can you not go too far after you go back?"

"Miss Machima has always been the one who keeps her head down. You are a devil, and you have to use your abilities to take advantage of others. I understand all of this." It seems that she was confused with Machima ten years later, the young man His tone gradually became a little excited. "But why do you never believe in our choices? Qiu, Himeno, and Pava...we are not pawns in your hands!"

What are you talking about, is this guy the protagonist of Jumpman?Macchima frowned. "what do you want to say in the end?"

"...5 minutes are almost up."

He finally shut up and calmed down. "It's nothing, maybe I miss talking to Miss Macchima too much."

This fast and long 5 minutes is indeed coming, and the game shows that there are still ten seconds left.This unexpected traversal has indeed been rewarding.Mazima just felt that the information was filling her brain, and she definitely needed time to think about how to deal with what might happen next.

She jumped off the desk and moved her stiff body.Inadvertently stepped on something, she looked down. "This is... ginger, soy sauce?"

Machima frowned at the shopping bags under the table.It is full of ingredients, it seems that the owner of this house is going to make a big meal. "Why did you leave these here?" Normally it should be in the kitchen after shopping.

The last six seconds.Machima is still working on shopping bags.

"Is Mr. Chainsaw Man going to make ginger dishes?" She couldn't help flipping through it with her hands. "Why is there no meat?"

"Ah, because the meat is not ready yet." The young man said in a deep voice. "I was accidentally delayed. It will take a lot of time to prepare the meat..."

"Not ready"?

For meat, you just need to buy ready-made meat in the supermarket, right?

The last three seconds.Mazima recalled the chainsaw that had been cut at her when she first crossed.

The last two seconds.Machima recalls where she appeared.An outrageously large work table; a closed garage, the youth is sad and nostalgic, with vague and evasive complicated eyes.

last second.Maqima recalled the look on the young man's face when he saw her, "the plan was disrupted".

In the blink of an eye, Mazima realized the direction of all the clues.She turned around abruptly.

"You actually...!!!"

Thick purple suddenly appeared, and the young man with blond hair and shark teeth disappeared into the vast smoke.

"Goodbye, Miss Marchma."

"I really hope that I, who was ten years ago, can meet you as soon as possible..."
