Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

But in the end, he was still a step too slow.

Night Star's figure gradually disappeared from the spot, leaving only the detonator he pulled from his chest, and the last words he left behind.

“Art is an explosion.”

“Boom!!!”

As the detonator button was pressed, a deafening sound broke the silence in the arena.

Inside the Kyoto Municipal Kindergarten's teaching building, bursts of dazzling fire erupted first.

At this moment, time seemed to slow down.

First, the fire.

Then, the expansion of the building's outer walls.

And finally, the cracks, the collapse, the loud noise.

“Chief Yagami!”

The deputy commander ran forward two steps, threw himself on top of Soichiro Yagami, and raised his hands to cover his ears.

Accompanied by a tremor that shook the ground, the Kyoto Municipal Kindergarten building turned to ashes in a deafening roar.

“That is!?”

Looking at the collapsed building, now a pile of rubble, Soichiro Yagami's pupils dilated.

His heart was instantly filled with two completely different emotions: lingering fear and regret.

The lingering fear was that, if it weren't for the appearance of that mysterious person, he would have led his subordinates into the building.

Afterward, they would have become souls under the ruins.

The regret was.

After such a violent explosion, although there was no one else in the building, so there was no need to worry about casualties, the traces at the scene must have been severely damaged and difficult to identify.

“Just who… is that guy?”

At the same time, inside the Kyoto of the Reverse World.

Even though he had successfully passed through the “Gate,” Night Star still didn't relax in the slightest.

He looked at the thick black mist in front of him, listening to the bizarre and inexplicable sound within the black mist, like thousands of people whispering at the same time, and muttered to himself.

“The real battle has only just begun.”

The most dangerous part of this operation was not, as Miko Yotsuya and Yui Yuigahama imagined, facing armed kidnappers.

Night Star knew from the beginning that, with his abilities, dealing with this group of amateur kidnappers, and even the members of the Metropolitan Police Department, was not a problem at all.

The real test has only just begun.

Because this was the first time he had left the Reverse World through a "Gate", and then returned to the Reverse World through the same "Gate."

In other words.

This gave the evil spirits a chance to gather together and prepare to besiege him.

Chapter 054: Butter Shooter, Triumphantly Returns

Within the viscous, rolling black mist, hundreds and thousands of terrifying pupils emerged, all eyes locked onto Night Star at the same time.

If it were a normal person, even Miko Yotsuya, whose mental fortitude was abnormally strong, would probably be unable to withstand being stared at by so many evil spirits.

However, Night Star, facing the terrifying gazes around him, simply yawned and stretched out a long stretch.

“This feeling is a bit like being a star, the center of attention at a concert.”

Night Star waved his hand towards the black mist and said with enthusiasm.

“Friends in the back row, wave your hands and let me see your enthusiasm, okay?”

Silence.

Only silence.

Of course, no response came from the black mist.

Night Star smiled and shook his head, muttering to himself.

“As expected, it's impossible to muddle through.”

The frivolous smile on his face gradually disappeared, the clothes on his body moved without wind, and the pure black mask seemed to be burning with flames, twisting slightly.

A faint, very ethereal voice sounded in Night Star's mind.

“Have you finally decided to tear off all pretense and use your full strength?”

“Now that the world has become so strange, why should you let yourself be bound by so-called 'normalcy'?”

“Devour all the evil spirits and create a world in your mind that is worthy of being called real.”

“Here, call out my true name.”

Listening to the voice in his mind, Night Star glanced at the black mist.

The black mist, as thick as a tide, did not come out of thin air.

It was the aura emitted by hundreds and thousands of terrifying evil spirits gathered together that condensed together.

At this moment.

The evil spirits revealed their true faces.

Just passing through a “Gate,” the Kyoto of the Reverse World and the Kyoto of the Surface World were like the difference between heaven and hell.

“Using that kind of ability here…”

Facing the encirclement of a staggering number of evil spirits, Night Star whispered to himself, then shook his head with a chuckle.

“It's not necessary yet.”

Just as Night Star was condensing a black Tang sword in his right hand, preparing to launch an attack on the gathered evil spirits, he suddenly saw the originally aggressive evil spirits begin to flee in panic.

Moreover, they were making panicked noises like animals roaring.

“This is?”

Night Star looked up into the distance, only to see a ragged humanoid creature, with only a few strands of rough linen hanging on its body, about two meters tall, and with decaying gray skin, slowly walking towards this place.

Although this guy's appearance was strange, and it was obvious at a glance that he was not human, he seemed very normal compared to the other evil spirits living in the Reverse World.

At least, he still had a human form.

The other evil spirits all looked like Cthulhu gods.

The zombie-like humanoid creature didn't seem to have any interest in Night Star at all, but just reached out and grabbed an evil spirit that was fleeing in panic, opened its mouth to an extent that could be called exaggerated, and bit down hard on the other party's body.

Evil spirits also have pain.

Being devoured alive like this naturally caused a deafening scream.

But the monster with the zombie appearance didn't slow down at all, like an emotionless machine, tearing the huge evil spirit into pieces little by little in an extremely cruel manner and swallowing it into its belly.

Night Star was next to him, witnessing the whole process.

He didn't show any fear at all, and even commented with interest.

“Your eating habits are not elegant at all. Occasional screams can bring a different kind of eating pleasure, but if the whole process is like this, it would be too vulgar. My assessment is that it's like Pigsy eating ginseng fruit, tasteless.”

The zombie evil spirit was stunned for a moment. It didn't seem to have enough intelligence to understand the meaning of Night Star's words.

At the same time.

Night Star was also observing this evil spirit, which was different from its kind.

It's true that evil spirits eat evil spirits.

But Night Star had never seen this kind of eating method with pure instinctive hatred.

Could it be…

Are you also an Attack Titan?

Are you going to drive all the evil spirits out of this Reverse World without leaving a single one?

Saying it as a joke is one thing, Night Star actually roughly guessed the true identity of this zombie-looking evil spirit.

Also one of the Hyakki Yagyō, the Killing Oni.

There are various folk theories about how the Killing Oni was produced, but the only thing they have in common is that.

The Killing Oni, as an evil spirit, has always been slaughtering its own kind and is called…

“The Grim Reaper of Monsters”

“Oh, brother.”

Thinking of this, Night Star took two steps forward, without any scruples, reached out and patted the Killing Oni on the shoulder, and said very enthusiastically.

“So you are the Killing Oni, nice to meet you, we are in the same business.”

The Killing Oni looked dumbfounded.

It doesn't have the same, or even higher, intelligence as humans like other powerful evil spirits.

The Killing Oni is an existence that only follows its instinctive hatred for evil spirits and constantly eliminates them, like a machine.

Night Star's words, like meeting a relative, directly burned out its already poorly functioning CPU.

The Killing Oni stood there stunned for a long time, and finally its nose… no, it can't be said to be a nose.

After all, the flesh on its nose had completely fallen off, leaving only two dark holes.

In short, the Killing Oni used this part to get close to Night Star and sniffed him twice, and a pair of eyes glowing with a dark green light showed a look of doubt that had never been seen in thousands of years.

Is this a human?

But why does he have the smell of evil spirits on him?

The Killing Oni shook its head and finally locked its attention on the Eight-Shaku and the Pale Ghost Hand that were following Night Star.

“Brother…”

Night Star looked at the Killing Oni's two eyeballs, which emitted a dark green light, and said with a profound smile.

“Would you mind lending me your eyeballs for a while?”

“……”

“Not talking? If you don't talk, I'll take it as you agree. I'm very fast, don't worry.”

“Roar!!!”

“What are you shouting, what are you shouting? Didn't I leave you one? You can still see, that's good enough. What's wrong, you still want to watch 3D movies?”

……

A dozen minutes later, six o'clock.

“Why hasn't he come back yet…”

Miko Yotsuya pursed her lips, staring at the “Gate” in front of her, her eyes filled with deep worry.

According to the news reports from the scene, the kidnappers in Kyoto Municipal Kindergarten were resolved at least half an hour ago.

Night Star hasn't come back yet…

Could it be that he encountered an accident in the Reverse World?

Thinking of this, Miko Yotsuya took a deep breath, looked at Yui Yuigahama beside her, and softly instructed.

“You wait here, I'll go in and find him.”

“Eh!”

Seeing that Miko Yotsuya was about to walk forward after speaking, Yui Yuigahama, although she couldn't see the existence of the “Gate,” quickly grabbed her and hurriedly dissuaded her.

“You're going in alone? Isn't that the same as looking for death?”

“I have to go, what if he gets hurt inside!?”

“Even he will get hurt, wouldn't you be even more unable to come out if you go?”
