K-type Mage

"The kids haven't gone to school yet, so this is causing trouble?" Wujo Satoru, who came to the bookstore, complained to Yuanshen.

The black-haired young man who had already hung up the closing sign got up from the soft sofa, put down the book in his hand, a little helpless: "There is nothing you can do to complain to me. The guy who cooperated with him is the same as you."

"I heard from Hui that you really celebrated New Year's Eve together?"

"Crossed." The young man replied very simply, with a natural expression, "It's been a long time since I've been with him, and it feels good. He was very friendly in front of Guizhi."

"..." Gojo Satoru handed over the information, "I really don't understand what's going on with the two of you. Is there anyone watching from behind?" He seemed to inadvertently ask.

"Yes." Yuan Shen took it, and said softly and deftly, "He is an idiot who wants to become brothers with me."

In the long past, in another world.

The old ruler, the crouching chaos, descended in front of the transmigrators who accomplished great deeds, and sent an invitation to mankind in the most common incarnation image in legends.

"Do you want to continue?"

On the appearance of the Egyptian man, the god with tentacles squirming in the shadow asked with a smile, as if he was greeting a friend with a bright smile.

"You are qualified to be a higher being."

The traveler raised his eyes to look at Him with no interest. There was no light in his dark pupils, only tiredness and boredom, and a sense of relief overflowing from his body.

"I have no idea." His voice was very soft, with no ups and downs in his tone, "Thank you for coming, Nyarlathotep."

So the gods understood.

"I respect your decision," He said, "but please please me a little more."

Then the traverser was thrown into the universe that hides the darkness and death of the ages.

Yuan Shen: ... Gan.

The spirit is attached to the "ants" in the world to experience all life, old age, sickness, death, love, hatred and parting. The body that has lost its soul is like a puppet put into a coffin.

If he couldn't come back, "Yuan Shen" would die completely.

Nyarlathotep: Expectation.jpg

The god, who delights in malice and terror, paused a moment, and greeted his happy end happily.

The spirit returned to the body. The traveler who lifted the coffin only had time to see the back of Nyarlathotep's departure. The power of the conflict affected the other world, so he had to grit his teeth and give up the idea of ​​catching up.

Only one step away from becoming a god, he arranged everything in the other world, and took the coffin back to his spiritual realm to sleep.

Again, Nyarlathotep is an idiot.

Wujo Wujo looked at him: "...Is he a very annoying guy?"

It's rare.A best friend resurrected by an enemy... If so, it's really a headache.

"Yes." After reading the information, Yuan Shen rubbed the center of his brows, "The existence of the curse spirit is really interesting, who do you want to be with me?"

Normally, there is absolutely no need to come to him specially. Last time, it was to let Yidizhi know him, so someone came to hand over the information to him.

——I don't know what to say, the child was about to cry when he came here.

Gojo Satoru looked at the clock hanging on the wall and nodded: "The time is just right—well, here we come! Nanami!"

There was a knock on the door of the bookstore, and the wind chime that the owner had spotted hanging up rang, and a tall young man walked into the store.

"Mr. Wujo." Jianren Qihai called his predecessor, "What's the matter?"

When he knew that the destination was a bookstore, he couldn't help thinking "Does that person also have the idea of ​​cultivating sentiment", but in fact he knew very well that he would not do such a thing on purpose.

He looked at another person in the bookstore.

Yuan Shen waved at him, and said in a friendly tone, "Hi, I'm Yuan Shen; did you tell Wutiao-kun?"

"I'm Qihai Jianren, and I just said that I need my help with a special service." The half-breed boy replied, looking at the information in his hand, showing a subtle expression, "Mr. Gojo, is it your task?"

Why would you bring in an irrelevant person who has no magic power at all?

"Mr. Yuan is not someone completely irrelevant, Nanami." Gojo Satoru, who was thought so, said it was not the case, "I am also very busy recently, and Mr. Yuan himself said that he would help solve it—don't worry, he is very powerful!"

It was surprising enough for the strongest conjurer to say that. Jianren Qihai looked at the bookstore owner calmly, feeling confused, but he didn't show it: "That's how it is."

Young people these days have their own characteristics.Looking at the suit on Nanami Jianren's body, Yuan Shen, who roughly knew what this person's job was other than a conjurer, showed admiration.

"No problem, this kind of trivial matter will be over soon, and you can rest well after it's done, Nanami-kun." He said, "I have acquaintances in Yokohama!"

"Mr. Yuan, remember to show the information to Qihai, I'll go first~" Gojo Satoru thought that the old man was really kind to the child, and at the same time felt delicate because of such thoughts-in any case, his appearance was too young; why? No conflict at all in showing that elder attitude?

Probably because the other party said that he is over [-] years old.

Jianren Qihai did not ignore this person's attitude, and couldn't help but twitch his brows.The age gap is not that big, the eldest son in the family?

Gojo Satoru left very readily, and the two people who actually met for the first time were not too embarrassed in the bookstore; the young conjurer who just came out of society faced the [-]-year-old old man and quickly surrendered, see the information After a pass, he nodded to show that he understood the situation.

Yuan Shen, who understood what Gojo Satoru meant by pulling Jianren Qihai to his eyes, just thought about it for a while, and then happily came to the conclusion that it had nothing to do with his own affairs.

In the foreign world, he can only maintain close contact with You En, because what he has to do and experience makes him have to use other identities, and there is no need to hide from You En, but to make troubles with him.

In this world, if you use your real name from the beginning and have enough ability, then continue to act as if he is not a person, it feels too subtle.

Qihai Jianren: ...

So just opened something like a space passage in the house?

"Please come in, Nanami-kun." Yuan Shen stretched out his hand as an invitation letter, "The other side is Yokohama, so there is no need to waste time."

The conjurer was not stunned, and stepped into the passage following the words, but he was also a little curious.

It didn't take too long. The light source that existed when the passage appeared expanded after a few steps, and the noisy voices of people also rang out.

After stepping out, there is a shadowy alley with unmelted snow in the corner. A three-coloured cat walks slowly past the wall, because the blond young man who suddenly appeared here was so startled that his feet crooked and almost fell. go down.

Outside the alley is a lively street, and pedestrians and vehicles also have a slow and leisurely tone when the snow melts after the first snow.

Yuanshen closed the passageway while he was looking around, and greeted the three-colored cat parked on the wall in a friendly way: "Good afternoon, Mr. Cat."

"Meow~" As if responding to his greeting, Sanhuamao also meowed; flicked its tail, turned its head and walked away slowly.

Jianren Qihai looked at it and felt like a grandfather taking a walk in the afternoon.

"Qihai-kun." Yuan Shen called him, "Let's go, let's go to the scene of the crime first."

"Take a walk"... don't say it like a big purchase.The conjurer wanted to complain a little, but he endured it, and still didn't say anything to the person he met for the first time.

Yuan Shenchou's teleportation point was very close to the scene of the most serious crime. It was a shopping mall. It couldn't be seen from the outside, but there were men in black suits with serious expressions inside.

Nanami Jianren, who knew from the data that this place was controlled by the Yokohama government, was in a delicate mood when he saw it.Yokohama has not had a "window" to monitor the chaos of the curse spirit for 20 years. It seems that there have been changes in the past two years, but he was not in the mood to pay attention to things here before.

It's been monitored now, but it's troublesome no matter how you think about it——

"Hey, Oda-kun!" Yuanshen happily went up to greet a red-brown-haired young man in a sand-colored short windbreaker who came out from the other side, with a brisk tone, "How are you doing recently?"

Oda Sakunosuke suddenly heard the greeting, and when he turned his head to see the black-haired young man, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly remembered: "Mr. Yuan?"

"You still remember me." Yuan Shen said, "My companion and I are here to solve the incident here, have you received the notice?"

Oda Sakunosuke recalled for a moment, nodded: "But it's about...a man with white hair."

Jianren Qihai who came over: ...So it really was that incomprehensible senior who pushed the task over.

"Because it has something to do with me, so I came here!" The young man who was rated as powerful by the strongest magician replied, with a natural attitude, "The higher-ups won't say anything, just solve it."

"That's true." Oda Sakunosuke nodded in agreement, "Do you want my colleagues to retreat?"

"It's better to go outside." Yuan Shen said, "Mr. Qihai, come here."

Oda Sakunosuke nodded politely to Nanami Jianren. The red-brown-haired young man had a stable expression and no hostility on his body. Compared with those colleagues in black suits, he looked normal like a man living alone who was going to make a big purchase in the supermarket; I think anyone can be a gangster these days.

"Excuse me, Oda-san," he said.

……

According to the information, a strange shadow appeared in the sewer of the basement garage in the shopping mall. When the customers who were driving were about to leave, the car was suddenly overturned.The only images captured by the camera were the three missing customers who seemed to be dragged out of the camera range.

The only witness was a security guard. After telling what he saw at first, he died suddenly at the police station with a distorted appearance.

The reason why Gojo Satoru identified this as highly likely to be related to that close friend of Yuanshen came to the door, because the former once explained Yokohama’s current simple barrier: due to consideration of the possession of the territory by local snakes, there is no functional barrier in the past 20 years. Integrity and solidity; therefore, if there are too powerful or too weak spell spirits and existences to cause trouble, they cannot be repelled immediately; and more importantly, the connection between the simplified version of the enchantment and Yuan Shen himself has long been cut off.

Now back in Yokohama, Yuan Shen and Nanami Kento, who had re-established a weak connection with the barrier, came to the underground garage together.Because of the disappearance, the car that was too late to be driven away was left here, looking like a pile of scattered graves under the cold incandescent light.

"There is something in the sewer." He said, "Mr. Qihai, if you encounter a curse spirit, you can deal with it—"

The young man's voice was a little low for some reason, and he looked a little unhappy.

"...that's disgusting."

They stood on the edge of the sewer mouth surrounded by warning signs, the broken manhole cover was put aside, and a long and narrow shadow flashed across the dark hole.

A sound similar to the slow breathing of a large animal sounded from inside, and it was also like the wind whistling through the passage, bringing a damp and cold smell.
