Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

Koga Tomoe looked at Yozora's eyes, which were bleeding… no, blood was gushing out of his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. She saw his disheveled appearance, as if he had just been fished out of a sea of blood, yet he still wore a smile, and she cautiously said.

“Um… Senior, you seem to be… bleeding from all seven orifices…”

“Oh, this is normal.”

Yozora casually wiped his face. Due to the internal bleeding caused by the seawater pressure, he was indeed bleeding from all seven orifices, or to put it more appropriately, he was hemorrhaging directly.

Not to mention his internal organs, even the blood vessels under the surface of his skin had ruptured.

But the next second, Wu Jialuo and Koga Tomoe saw that the bloodstains on Yozora's body surface suddenly turned into something like water vapor, slowly dissipating with white smoke, as if they had directly evaporated.

Koga Tomoe was slightly stunned when she saw this scene, and just as she was about to say something, her pretty face turned red, and she quickly turned her head away, raising her hands to cover her eyes.

“Um… um… Senior… your clothes…”

Under the effect of spiritual power, injuries can be restored, but Yozora was only wearing ordinary casual clothes, which naturally couldn't be restored along with him, directly bringing Koga Tomoe a great shock.

Compared to Koga Tomoe's shyness and embarrassment, Wu Jialuo was very sincere, directly staring at Yozora's body with rapt attention, looking very excited, and even exclaiming in admiration.

“Although the muscles aren't that exaggerated, they still balance agility and strength, the most suitable streamlined shape. As expected, Yozora-kun, you have a great figure. In that case, our future children will definitely be the most perfect!”

“Wu-san, please don't act like a hooligan here.”

Yozora ignored Wu Jialuo's amorous words, only glanced at the few evil spirits crawling up the stairs. The next second, black flames appeared out of thin air, directly burning those evil spirits to ashes.

“This is…”

Koga Tomoe covered her eyes because of shyness, so she didn't see this scene, but Wu Jialuo saw it clearly.

Even if she was dull, when she saw the black flames appearing out of thin air, she could already realize that it was not some kind of fighting technique.

Wu Jialuo had seen such flames on TV before.

That was… the symbol of the mysterious hero of Kyoto City, “Masked.”

Chapter 488: When in Doubt, Start Looping

“So that's how it is…”

At this moment, Wu Jialuo finally understood why Yozora's strength was completely and utterly beyond the realm of what she had seen in all the fighting technique users, including her great-grandfather Wu Huiliyang, who was known as the Strong Demon.

The reason was simple, because the other party was indeed not from the same dimension as them.

No matter how strong a fighting technique user is, they are still within the scope of human beings, but “Masked” has almost become a walking deity in today's world.

If they could win against that, it would be a miracle.

Just then, a sudden muffled sound broke the original silence.

Wu Jialuo, Yozora, and Koga Tomoe all looked out the window at the same time. A huge pupil covered in bloodshot was tightly pressed against the window, its eyes staring at Yozora standing there, revealing undisguised, heart-palpitating, twisted killing intent.

“What is that thing…”

Koga Tomoe was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she was almost about to faint.

That window was about four or five meters high and two or three meters wide, but even such a huge floor-to-ceiling window didn't seem to show the full picture of the pupil outside.

What kind of monster would possess such an eye?

“It's finally showing its true form…”

Looking at the huge pupil staring at him through the window, Yozora didn't show any signs of panic. Instead, a surge of uncontrollable excitement and anticipation was revealed in his eyes.

Judging from the intensity of the spiritual power, the owner of the pupil outside was the god symbolizing the ocean… or rather, the disaster of the sea.

Why not directly eat Wu Jialuo and Koga Tomoe, but instead confine the two women in the tower, and send out those evil spirits to constantly attack?

Yozora was not an evil spirit but a human, unable to fathom the true meaning of this existence. He could only understand through speculation that the other party wanted to absorb the fear of Wu Jialuo and Koga Tomoe, perhaps it was a simple hobby of playing with prey, or perhaps it was a unique requirement for sacrifices. In short, none of these were important.

Only one thing was important.

How to devour the huge seafood… the god of the ocean outside, while ensuring the safety of Wu Jialuo and Koga Tomoe?

Yozora looked at the tower, thinking that it should be created by the other party using spiritual power, an area to resist the pressure of the seawater. As for why it was a lighthouse… he wasn't here to provide psychological counseling for the other party, he was here to dine, so there was no need to ponder this point.

Logically, if he killed the other party, or if the so-called god of the ocean consumed a large amount of spiritual power in the battle and felt the danger, it would probably be unable to continue maintaining this area.

At that time, under such terrifying deep-sea pressure, Wu Jialuo and Koga Tomoe wouldn't even have a chance to realize it, and their bodies would be crushed into pieces.

In that case, this operation would be meaningless.

Thinking of this, Yozora suddenly had a wonderful idea and immediately looked at Koga Tomoe, who was standing there, seemingly at a loss and very flustered.

“Koga-san, let me confirm, when you were stuck in the time loop last time, you only realized it after waking up, right?”

Although Koga Tomoe didn't understand why Yozora wanted to bring up the previous question at this time, her brain was already blank, and she didn't have the ability to think seriously at all, only subconsciously answering.

“Um… after waking up, I found that the dates on the TV and mobile phone hadn't changed. When I got to school and talked to my friends, I confirmed that I was stuck in a loop…”

“That's right.”

Yozora smiled first, then said something that Koga Tomoe and Wu Jialuo did not expect.

“Alright, Koga-san, it's past eleven o'clock now, you should go to sleep.”

“Slee… sleep?”

Seeing Koga Tomoe's unexpected and unbelievable appearance, Yozora frowned slightly, looking a little displeased.

“Look at you, look at you, it's because you don't rest when you should be resting, that's why you're already in high school, and your figure is still like a flat board. I have a friend who hasn't developed even in her second year of high school, and she has to suffer silent humiliation in the club every day…”

Wu Jialuo couldn't help but curiously ask: “Are you talking about… is it Yuki no Shita Yukino-san?”

“Look at you, look at you, I don't even need to say the name, and you already know who it is. You're humiliating me, that's too much!”

Hearing this, Koga Tomoe really couldn't hold back anymore. The intense desire to retort in her heart even made her forget her fear for a moment. She pointed her finger at the terrifying pupil peering from outside the window, stomped her foot, and shouted loudly.

“How could a normal person possibly sleep in this situation!!!”

“Can't sleep? How pathetic…”

Seeing Ye Xing looking at her with such disdain for her uselessness, Koga Tomoe didn't know what to say.

She knew his personality was abstract, but she never expected him to be this abstract.

In this place, which she didn't know how it was formed, a tower located in the deep sea, with a terrifying monster constantly peering from the outside…

Being in this kind of environment, how could she possibly sleep!?

Why did Ye Xing seem to think it was her fault for not being able to do it?

“Since that's the case, then there's no helping it.”

Ye Xing slowly walked to Koga Tomoe. Before she could say anything, he made a hand-chop gesture with his left hand and gently tapped her on the neck. The next second, Koga Tomoe's vision was plunged into darkness.

“This is…”

Watching Ye Xing gently lay the petite Koga Tomoe flat on the ground, Wu Jialuo frowned slightly.

“What technique did you just use… It's neither acupressure nor a forceful blow to damage the nerves in the back of the neck… This method of knocking someone unconscious without harming them at all… What exactly is it…”

“You wouldn't understand, would you?”

Ye Xing explained nonchalantly.

“As long as you make a hand-chop gesture and strike the back of an ordinary person's neck, even without much force, you can instantly make them fall unconscious. Isn't that obvious?”

“Uh…”

Wu Jialuo frowned even more, thinking to herself, 'I've been receiving assassin training from my family since I was a child, how come I've never heard of such a thing?'

Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't make any sense at all.

Why would a light tap with a hand-chop gesture cause someone to fall unconscious, and then wake up as if nothing happened?

What's so obvious about that?

“Alright, now that Koga-san is asleep, I should sleep too.”

Hearing this, Wu Jialuo, in a daze, saw Ye Xing looking around this floor of the tower, and eventually walking slowly towards that huge window.

“Yahaha.”

Facing that huge, bloodshot pupil, Ye Xing didn't feel any tension or fear at all. He just stretched languidly, lay directly on the ground, and even had the leisure to wave at the pupil before closing his eyes.

“Wait for me.”

“Tomorrow… no.”

“See you today.”

…

When Ye Xing opened his eyes again, he was already lying on the soft bed in the villa. The phone on the bedside table was vibrating, and the faint sound made Ogiso Setsuna, who had been tired all night, unconsciously make a cute humming sound in her sleep.

He got out of bed, picked up the phone, and answered. As expected, it was Koga Tomoe's voice on the other end.

“Senpai, senpai, what exactly is going on?”

Ye Xing yawned, rubbed his eyes, and replied with a chuckle.

“Don't you understand? This day has started looping.”

“But… why…”

“Time loops require three conditions to be met.”

Ye Xing's tone was very calm, as if he had already anticipated this situation.

“First, you cannot accept the current situation, and you feel that this situation is irreparable. You must experience a time loop to ‘reject’ this situation from the root, which is a subconscious resistance in your heart.”

“Second, you temporarily stop ‘observing’ this world. In other words, you fall asleep.”

“And the third condition, which I only just discovered, is that I, the ‘observer,’ must also fall asleep and stop ‘observing’ this world.”

Koga Tomoe: “Uh… Senpai, what are you talking about…”

“Don't understand? Then I'll use a simpler way to describe it to you.”

Ye Xing organized his thoughts, and then spoke after a few seconds.

“You are like a player in a video game, with the power to decide whether to restart the game. And the conditions for restarting are to meet the three conditions I just mentioned. The last condition is like this: Although I can't directly restart the game, if you want to restart the game, you must get my permission. As long as both of us don't refuse to restart, the game… that is, the world, will enter the previous save point, which is the beginning of this day's loop.”

“I see…”

Koga Tomoe nodded as if she understood, and then said cautiously.

“Senpai… then what I saw yesterday, what exactly was it…”

“Don't think about it, just think of it as a dream.”

“How could it be a dream? Although it's looping again, that proves that the things I witnessed are all…”

Before Koga Tomoe could finish speaking, Ye Xing suddenly interrupted with a smile.

“Want to know? Then I'll tell you tomorrow.”

Koga Tomoe said suspiciously: “Really?”

“Really, I can't do something like deceiving a woman.”

…

That afternoon, after Ye Xing's explanation, the Hyperdimension Society members, who did not retain their memories from before the world reset, learned what had happened.

And once again, the Hyperdimension Society began its operation.

Later that evening, on the beach outside the villa.

“This is really exaggerated…”

Looking at the luxurious yacht in front of her, and the helicopter parked on the side, even the calm-natured Futaba Rio couldn't help but exclaim.

“I have to say, the Shiomiya family's power is really extraordinary. It's not just in Tokyo and Kyoto, even if we run to Okinawa and temporarily make such outrageous requests for a yacht and a helicopter, they can actually do it within two hours. This can't be done with money alone. This network of connections… is indescribably powerful.”

“Yeah…”

Yukino Yukinoshita, who was also a young lady from a wealthy family, pursed her lips with a complex expression.

“Such an exaggerated scene… I really don't know how to describe it.”

“Alright, it's just a broken helicopter and yacht, how long are you going to be impressed?”

Ye Xing's reaction was very calm, and he smiled at Futaba Rio.
