The Melaleuca Routine of Dominating the Devil

So far, Mazima has randomly entered two dungeon missions in this world.Once, I randomly formed a team with Akira Hayakawa and Gojo Satoru, and encountered a crossroads demon that exerted effects in a specific area; once, I was guided by the future demon as a clue, and teamed up with Dongshan Xiaohong and Kusakabe Make contact with the boss to meet the conditions and trigger the copy task.

Although the venues of the dungeons are different, and the bosses they are fighting are also different, but the reason for triggering the dungeons twice probably lies in their direct or indirect contact with the dungeon bosses.The player is a little proud of the uninjured clearance of the head balloon dungeon - this is thanks to her discovery of something wrong when she checked the list of friendly personnel stipulated in the game.In addition to the two demon hunters Dongshan Xiaohong and Kusakabe, Kise Ryota and Fuheshier, who the mail announced to join, are also counted in the friendly range.But the strange thing is that Xia Youjie, who proposed to act together from the beginning, was not among them.

The game will not lie, it will only reflect the truth of the world from the objective perspective of a third party.Since Xia Youjie was not on the list, Maqima had reason to doubt his motives.Not to mention the conjurer's negativity and bad attitude towards ordinary people.He didn't even bother to cover up, which was enough to show how confident Xia Youjie was in his request to pull her into the gang, and how underestimated the strength of the demon hunter was.

...However, everything is over.

After the friend's Shier defeated Xia Youjie, Maqima's questioning was not so much an expression of dissatisfaction with Xia Youjie as an inner torture.And it was the language torture that made his evaluation of himself unprecedentedly low, and also gave Maqima a chance to become a conjurer after using her ability.

From now on, Xia Youjie will belong to Maqima just like the spider demon.

Capabilities, memories, feelings, even thoughts.If she is willing, let Xia Youjie go and tell Gojo Satoru that the type I like is a lively little girl with blue hair, big eyes, and scars on her face. I really feel that I believe it...all of these can be done of.

In front of Maqima, Xia Youjie has no more secrets to speak of.Still in a trance, he looked at the pink-haired woman, no more confusion and hesitation in adolescence, only full-hearted...trust and dependence.

"Miss Marchma."

"Oh, have you recovered yet?" Maqima, who had just sent Shier to find Kusakabe and Dongshan Xiaohong, was arranging for the local police station to come and clean up the mess.Although the curse spirit of the head balloon has been lifted, they still need to solve the mess left behind.She motioned around to the pale young man.Shrubs, woods, steps... The bodies were scattered all over the place. Xia Youjie looked at them with his eyelids downcast, with a mysterious expression on his face.

Only Maqima knew that the inner world of the conjurer was barren and very peaceful. "You who hate ordinary people probably don't feel guilty at all?"

He slowly raised his eyebrows, more like saying: What is guilt?

"Although you have completely lost your will to me. But I know 'you' are still there, Mr. Xia You."

Machima said lightly. "I also have to remind you. The chaos and panic brought about by the human head balloon spell spirit have exceeded the range that the magic world can bear. The entire Kanagawa has been turned upside down because of the super spell spirit you released. As the instigator, you are bound to accept punishment .”

"..."

"The police station and demon hunters will come to clean up the shrine in a while. At least at that time, do you feel a little sorry for the trouble you caused?"

Maqima felt the mood of poorly educated high school students.After this dispute, she also understands that what Gojo Satoru can play with is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.Xia Youjie looks quite honest, but in fact he is so weak, he can walk into a dead end without knowing it, and when he becomes crazy, he can shake the world and tire a group of adults.

But after being dominated, all the bad habits of character will no longer exist, whether his soul is willing or not, Xia You has to obediently listen to his words.From the corner of the eye, I saw the conjurer standing silently for a while, and then walked towards the policemen who appeared one after another in the torii gate. The pink-haired woman pursed her lips in satisfaction, and at the same time gave him a hint not to tell the truth about the balloon with a human head .

She still didn't want to see the scene where Xia Youjie, who had his minions pulled out, was beaten to death by the angry and most hated local citizens.

The conjurer's punishment can be discussed with the fourth class after arriving in Tokyo. There are more important things to do now.Maqima took out the quaint object wrapped in layers of charms from the collection column. The fingers of the special-grade cursed object and the double-faced Nuo were getting hot, and it almost told her impatiently that the "treasure" was coming soon. far away.

A super-grade curse object, the fingers of the double-faced Nuo...

Maqima hadn't spent much time on this cursed object that she had just picked up, but now she realized that it was no different from the meat of the Gun Demon.

Conjurers don't have the habit of collecting top-level demon meat, but they have a soft spot for cursed items.Find the other finger of the two-faced Su Nuo from the treasure hall in the shrine, and Maqima is satisfied to see that the number of fingers in the collection column +1.Although it has nothing to do with the main quest, but the collection of super cursed objects, especially the king of curses, will come in handy sooner or later.Instead of continuing to put it in the shrine and put it in the ashes, it is better to let her take over.

When two fingers are placed in the same collection grid, the surrounding atmosphere seems to change.There seemed to be a figure in a kimono walking by.Mazima frowned, looking into the distance, there was no one there, only the sunlit gravel flying in the air.

Is it an illusion...

she turns quickly

Turn your attention away, because the game shows that the player's copy reward has arrived.

Reminder: Congratulations on your successful recovery of the special spell

Dungeon——The mystery of the head balloon was successfully passed.

Check your quest rewards?

……

The surprise of the dungeon reward was beyond Maqima's expectation.

This is the first time... has the stingy game party sent free game skills?

The player's first reaction was that there must be some kind of conspiracy.But at the beginning, the skills of lv.3 were damn attractive, and just looking at the simple logo was very offensive.Clicking on her character introduction page, Maqima quickly realized what kind of skill she had acquired.

Curse Killing lv.3: The name is the shortest curse.

From the natural ability to dominate the demon.At the cost of the life of the prisoner above life imprisonment, you need to let the prisoner read his name clearly, and through gestures, you can crush and kill the person whose name is read.

This skill takes effect quickly and is limited to use within the shrine.A certain amount of experience can be upgraded to the next level (3/9)

It is similar to the one-time contract signed by the Gun Demon and the gangster assassins, except that the payment is no longer a mere [-] yen——Machima's newly acquired curse-killing skills are at the cost of paying the lives of vicious people, Can cause long-distance damage to the enemy.

Although the preparatory work will be troublesome, felons can be obtained from the Metropolitan Police Department at any time. If it is done properly, this skill will be quite useful.

And this is also the ability that she has been thinking about for a long time and is extremely lethal.

Putting the test of ability into her itinerary for the next few days, Maqima handed over the follow-up work of the shrine to the local police station, and took Xia Youjie back to the original road.But on the way back, she received a call from Dongshan Xiaohong.

The saying that misfortune and good fortune depend on each other confirms the truth hidden in the absolute left by the ancients.Dongshan Xiaohong's communication did not start with a happy tone. "Miss Macchima... A gun battle broke out in a residential area, and it is preliminarily determined that there are members of a gang organization lurking nearby!"

"The opponent's firepower is extremely fierce. Senior Kusakabe, Senior Kusakabe was shot by them, woohoo..."

"...Where is Shier?"

"Already pursued... But Kusakabe-senpai is bleeding too much, I'm so scared, Ms. Machima, where are you..."

……

In all disputes, human beings are their own executioners until the last moment.The head balloon disaster in Odawara City was caused by magicians, but the sudden gun battle at the end was a crisis brought about by ordinary people.

The library seemed to be in ruins.After meeting Dongshan Xiaohong who was crying like she lost her mother, Maqima checked Kusakabe who was unconscious.The gunshot wound was not serious, just bleeding profusely and looking scary.It was Kise Ryota who they rescued earlier who helped him bandage his wounds.

This tall, model-like young man grew up quickly after experiencing such ups and downs. Although his face was as pale as the wallpaper, there was less fear and anxiety in his eyes, and he became much stronger.

"Senior Kusakabe was injured to protect me..."

He gritted his teeth, and Mazima noticed that his fist was clenched so tightly that it was almost bleeding. "After those balloon monsters disappeared, I thought it must be the credit of Ms. Macchima, so I... left the library. After all, many nearby residents were injured and needed help..."

"Just out of the blue, I, I saw a couple of guys in black in an alley doing a deal. They opened the trunk of the car, it was full of guns, and they swapped black leather suitcases. Like , like..."

- Like the smuggling/smuggling scene in American movies.

Kise Ryo wanted to describe it like this too much, but was also worried that Miss Macchima thought he was too naive.He pursed his lips uneasily, and looked at the still calm pink-haired woman.Machima nodded at him.

Just looking into those golden eyes, the boy felt boundless courage.He took a deep breath and continued. "I overheard them discussing the head balloon, saying things like 'should the monster disappear as planned' or something like that, and then there was a tall, silver-haired man who seemed to have spotted me..."

"I ran to the library in one breath, and Senior Kusakabe came to rescue me, and I waited until Senior Shier arrived. But those men in black had a large number of guns, even if Senior's 'Stone Demon' stood in front of them, they couldn't hold on attack……"

Hear Makima here, ask her the first question since her arrival.

"Did the other party see your face?"

"The situation was critical at that time. I put Senior Dongshan's coat on top of my head. I probably didn't see it..."

"Who knows if the head balloon will float over again!" Dongshan Xiaohong was still wiping tears. "The clothes are supposed to protect you from those monsters..."

——I didn't expect it to be used on gangsters.

The dejected boy was still holding Dongshan Xiaohong's black suit in his hand.It was dusty and dusty, and the cute bow hanging on the side of the pocket was almost colorless.But it was the protection of this suit that made Kise Ryota not have to worry about being threatened by gangsters in the future.

This is enough.Mazima raised her hand and stroked his hair reassuringly. "You did very well."

The boy grinned, and finally showed a silly smile. "Haha, that's how it's done in movies..."

"It's a pity that real life is much crueler than the movies. The movies don't let gangsters and

Cursed monsters and these elements are mixed together, and if you are not careful, it will become a bad movie. Kusakabe's injury cannot be delayed. As soon as he contacted the nearby ambulance, Maqima heard heavy footsteps coming from the door. Fuheshier, who seemed not injured, looked as if he had lost ten bets in a row. As gloomy as a horse.

Machima asked, "Where are people?"

Shi Er said concisely: "They were all killed."

"Let's at least keep one alive?" Mazima's face remained unchanged. "So, where's their boss? The one with the silver hair."

Shi Er was a little reluctant this time. "...that guy ran away."

"Oh? Didn't even Shier keep up..."

As if insulted by the woman's somewhat surprised expression, the black-haired man instantly raised his eyebrows, exasperated. "Those gangsters were backed up by helicopters, they pulled the rope and slipped away! I don't have wings!"

"In the future, when you meet someone who can slip like this, you can either find a partner with wings, or you can buy me a helicopter, you choose yourself!"

……

It is impossible to buy a helicopter, not in a lifetime.

But it shouldn't be difficult to find a demon with wings, so it doesn't hurt to look for it later.The more useful tool demons like spider demons, the better.

After returning to Tokyo, he has to report to his superiors, and the rapidly promoted social animal demon is no exception.After imprisoning the evil magician Xia Youjie (or curser?) in the guard cell inside the public security headquarters, Maqima has not written the report on the Kanagawa mission, and her mind has drifted to investigate the "Black Organization". "Are.

This group of gangsters was obviously different from the past. They dared to conduct smuggling/smuggling transactions under the circumstance that evil spirits were flying around in balloons with human heads.More importantly, there was a call to her from the Kusaka Department of Odawara City Hospital.

"There are not many guns in the world that can penetrate the strongest defense of the 'Stone Demon', right? Their weapons have all been amplified by the power of demons."

Kusakabe's spirit is not bad, he is still seriously thinking about the origins of those gangsters. "They are probably the legendary international organization of demon meat with guns..."

"... Take a good rest, Kusakabe." Machima said. "Think of this time as a rare vacation."

If Xia Youjie hadn't gone to the Inari Shrine with Xia Youjie, would she have gone to another ending of the dungeon now: for example, destroying the black-clothed organization lurking in the residential area and getting a large piece of gun demon meat by the way?

If Xia Youjie's true face was not exposed, wouldn't he have to face such an embarrassing situation?

Standing in front of Star O'Cafe, Machima, who was still holding a summer-limited fruit tea, was blocked by a 1.9-meter-long white-haired magician.

Gojo Satoru, who was standing in the middle of the sidewalk, didn't have the slightest awareness of hindering passers-by.He put his hands in his pockets, his sunglasses were pressed down very low, and there was a pressing pressure in his blue eyes. "Long time no see, Miss Macchima."

"Do you know where Jay went?"
