Sachiko Can Finally Rest In Peace

　　Misaki stared blankly at Ryota, not understanding what he meant. But now wasn't the time to care about that.

　　"Your injury...!?" Misaki exclaimed in surprise.

　　The current Ryota looked extremely pitiful, with all the injuries on his body, there was no way to quickly calculate it.

　　His clothes were tattered, and the exposed skin was covered with bloodstains and gore.

　　While his skin wasn't covered in blood, it was purplish-blue in color, and seemed to have been hit by a severe blow.

　　Slash wounds and impact wounds… Misaki immediately assessed the situation based on its characteristics.

　　Ryota vs Sachiko.

　　And she's worried there's more than one Sachiko.

　　Ryota said it over a hundred times, could it be...

　　"It's okay, it's just a small wound."

　　Ryota's tone is light and airy. But the heaviness hidden in those words almost made Misaki feel suffocated, her nose hurt, and she almost screamed.

　　"You...you are stupid..."

　　"Come back and scold me, Misaki."

　　Ryota interrupted her, grinned and said: "Stay there and don't move, I'll take you out right away."

　　That smile seemed to have a strong contagion, and it left Misaki where she was, saying nothing.

　　Ryota turned his head and looked at Sachiko and the group of ghosts roaring in front of him.

　　Several ghosts who took the opportunity to get closer in the smoke and dust were cut off by him.

　　Amidst the roars of the enemy, he charged out with sword in hand, with a ferocity that bit into his face.

　　It was just a group of ghosts, who were quickly killed by him like cutting melons and vegetables.

　　"You now--!"

　　"Give me die!!"

　　With a deep roar from Ryota's throat, he slashed at Sachiko with his sword.

　　Explosion!

At the moment of the clash, he felt his blood surging.

　　In the hand holding the sword, the fingers were stained with blood from the force of the shock, and several phalanges were broken.

　　"Useless!"

　　However, Ryota was like a beast, he didn't care at all, and swung his sword again to slash.

　　The trajectory of the sword reflected in his mind.

　　The sword slashed at Sachiko with various strange arcs, one slash faster than the other, as if cutting through shadows.

　　In just four seconds, the murder weapon in Sachiko's hand was blown away.

　　She glanced at Ryota resentfully, and her figure disappeared in an instant.

　　At the same time.

　　Ryota felt a heavy blow hit the side of his waist.

　　It seems that the strength of dozens of people was concentrated at one point and released.

　　When he didn't pay attention for a while, he was sent flying and crashed into the classroom next to him.

　　Smashing the walls along the way, overturning the tables and benches and sinking deep into the wooden floor together.

　　Even destroying part of the foundation underneath.

　　"Cough...!"

　　Ryota spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, but his ferocious glare remained unabated.

　　He had encountered this situation at least thirty times.

　　The impact injuries accumulated on the body have caused severe damage to the internal organs.

　　Now everything was relying on soul power and willpower to support the body movements that seemed about to be crushed.

　　Manipulate him like a puppet and keep fighting!

　　The soul power that repairs injuries has long been unable to keep up.

　　But that doesn't matter anymore.

　　It had gotten to this point, not even death could frighten him anymore!

　　"Aaahhh--!"

　　With a loud roar, Ryota inflated his muscles and got up quickly.

　　The ferocious power bounced off all the tables and benches that pressed against it.

　　With a bang, his whole body was like a cannonball, shooting Sachiko in the corridor outside the classroom.

　　That ferocious expression was even scarier than the one on Sachiko's face!

　　Explosion!

　　Explosion!

　　Sachiko took the murder weapon and continued clashing with Ryota.

　　Corridors and walls were quickly destroyed.

　　One person and one ghost hit the wall and crashed into another classroom.

　　The old desks and benches in the classroom shattered after the battle within seconds.

　　The wooden floor also continued to collapse.

　　"Ah!" Sachiko let out a shrill roar.

　　"Just that? Just like that? Haha… die for me!"

　　Ryota also laughed recklessly, completely ignoring the increasing pain.

　　The excitement is higher than ever!

　　In his soul, the emotional pool of fear was complete.

　　A large amount of fear rolled down like a wave, as if it could taint the soul completely.

　　But Ryota is not overcome by this fear.

　　Misaki was waiting for him outside.

　　Wait for him to win this battle and take her out together.

　　Survive together.

　　So never fail!

　　Thinking of the consequences of failure, Ryota's eyes were full of ferocity like waves.

　　For a moment, all that came out of his heart was incomparable courage.

　　This courage was like a flame that ignited his soul.

　　Where the flames radiated, all the tumbling fears subsided and were completely suppressed.

　　Then collect, gather, and compress independently—a bridge is built in the gap between heart and soul.

　　Explosion--!

　　At that moment, Ryota's heart seemed to open up to the world.

　　A powerful force poured out.

　　The soul and body are moistened by this power at the same time, developing towards a higher level.

　　Ryota feels his strength is steadily increasing.

　　The soul continued to grow, more soul power gushing out at the same time.

　　Strong feelings, his general essence hit his mind, making him eager to fight!

　　—The First Bridge, The Emotion of Fear!

　　"It's time to end!"

　　Ryota raised the sword with both hands above his head, slightly bent his back and stomach, and exerted strength throughout his body.

　　The slash with the fastest speed!

　　There was a loud bang in the dilapidated classroom.

　　A wave of air blew from a large hole in the wall, rolling smoke and dust down the corridor.

　　Misaki was lying not far away, watching this scene in shock.

　　In the classroom.

　　Sachiko's murder weapon is cut.

　　Her entire body split open and exploded without any tension.

　　The air cooled in an instant.

　　The floor, the blackboard, even the ceiling started to form a thick layer of ice.

　　Fear—fear that stabbed into the spine,

　　When the power of thought flows out through this bridge of emotional condensation, it will have the property of freezing.

　　"Huuu..."

　　Ryota lowered his sword.

　　After seeing the disappearing Sachiko, he let out a long sigh.

　　It is over.

　　But now is not the time to relax.

　　He tilted his head to look in a certain direction and rushed over at his fastest speed.

　　The wall blocking the front was smashed with a sword.

　　In the next instant, the long sword transformed from soul power disappeared.

　　Ryota stretched out his hand, rushed to Misaki, and hugged the girl.

　　"Come on, quickly!"

　　"Um..."

　　Misaki hugged Ryota's neck.

　　The school building begins to collapse.

　　Ryota didn't look back, just hugged Misaki and dashed forward with all his strength.

　　Behind him, the ground continued to disappear, as if the world was being crushed and was chasing after him.

　　Before everything disappeared, Ryota brought Misaki back to the previous classroom.

　　Using the floor that hadn't completely collapsed as a starting point, he jumped out and rushed into the hole that was starting to close.

　　The field of vision flipped in an instant.

　　Holding Misaki in his arms, Ryota appeared in the classroom with no lights on.

　　He looked closely at the window and found that it was on the second floor, so he didn't hesitate anymore, kicked the window and jumped down.

　　Then he ran all the way and rushed out of Kisaragi Academy.

　　Up to several hundred meters from the school.

　　Ryota's tense heart completely relaxed.
