Meeting Cult Members

Ryota never doubted his ability to feel emotions.

　　If there is evil feedback, then the target is definitely not a good thing. And in this case, there are no exceptions. Because his current emotional perception wasn't very strong.

　　It seems that the evil that is occasionally born in the hearts of ordinary people is almost invisible to him, and it is basically difficult to see it.

　　So the one who can make him react. Basically there will be no wrong kills.

　　"Judging from the feedback, that person saving people should only be appearances, what's the purpose..."

　　Ryota frowned and looked ahead.

　　The young man had saved the bullied girl and started to cheer her up.

　　Everything looks normal...

　　(Wait a minute! Could that have something to do with cults?)

　　Ryota suddenly thought of the information the minister of the official organization had told him a week ago.

　　Most of the cases of missing young women in recent years have been committed by cult members.

　　Their goal of capturing people is very simple – to artificially create ghosts, and then release them to disrupt society and slaughter humans.

　　The reason for selecting young women as the target group is that they are the most emotionally reactive and more prone to falling into extreme emotions than others.

　　The characteristics of this cult, in Ryota's view, are the same as the Kyubey in [Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica].

　　It's just that compared to the latter, which only targets junior high school students, the range of cult hunting is wider.

　　Thinking of this, Ryota's expression became serious.

　　The people who were being bullied at school had accumulated various negative emotions in their hearts, and were on the verge of a mental breakdown.

　　These people are the easiest to go to extremes!

　　As an "experienced person" who had inherited the memories from his original body, he knew this very clearly.

　　(Let's try that first.)

　　After Ryota made up his mind, he moved forward.

　　At the same time.

　　The young man who saved the high school girl comforted the girl a few words before facing the six bullies facing him.

　　It seemed that the behavior was stopped after warning the six.

　　The contradiction between the two sides gradually escalated.

　　If it went on like this, the young man would definitely be beaten by the six people on the other side.

　　Everything looks normal.

　　If not for the fact that he could still feel the malice, Ryota would have suspected that he was thinking too much.

　　Without giving in to temptation, he immediately approached the young man, then tapped him on the shoulder.

　　"Are you alright?"

　　The young man turned and looked at Ryota suspiciously.

　　Not only him, but the six high school students on the opposite side were also watching Ryota, throwing impatient and warning glances one after another.

　　Under such an obvious situation of discord right now, he had purposely come to join in, obviously to disrupt the situation.

　　They were all prepared to teach the youth in front of them a lesson, and they didn't want to be disturbed.

　　The other side.

　　Ryota naturally ignored the six people's warning, and focused all his attention on the young man.

　　He showed a slightly observing look and said:

　　"I am a member of the Shinto religion. Now I suspect that you are related to the power of the evil god. Please come with me and cooperate with my investigation."

　　"Cult...? What do you mean?"

　　The doubt on the young man's face deepened:

　　"I don't understand what you're saying."

　　Hearing this, Ryota half closed his eyes.

　　As the young man spoke, the hatred he felt deepened.

　　This guy is really troubled!

　　"Hmph, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, just go back and ask."

　　Ryota grabbed the young man's shoulders and looked at him for his excess height:

　　"If I make a mistake, I will apologize to you afterwards. For now… Obey me!"

After all, one hand was clasping the young man's shoulders, while the other reached into his trouser pocket and pulled out his cell phone.

　　It seems ready to contact someone.

　　The other side.

　　The youth felt a strong pressure from his shoulders.

　　It was definitely not a grip an ordinary person could hold.

　　His face suddenly sank. Due to the strength of this grip, he soon rules out Ryota's option of being a psychopath.

　　His disguise was completely exposed!

　　No longer needing to continue acting, he chose to act immediately.

　　Explosion!

　　In an instant, a loud explosion rang out.

　　Ryota just took out his cell phone, immediately enveloped in a huge flame.

　　In an instant, most of the cell phone melted in flames.

　　Raging flames spread through the surroundings, scorching the air and immediately carbonizing the grass on the ground.

　　The six high school students who were still staring at Ryota, as well as the girl who was being bullied, were stimulated by the heat wave, and all screamed in horror.

　　Frightened, they continued to step back.

　　In an instant, only Ryota and the youth were left amidst the flames.

　　The gentle expression on the face of the youth who manipulated the flames to explode disappeared.

　　He grinned, as if enjoying the pleasure of scorching a human body with fire.

　　"Although I don't know how you found me, but it doesn't matter, you left the stage for me here, stupid guy!"

　　Seeing Ryota wrapped in flames, a disgusted expression appeared on the young man's face.

　　It's fine if you don't choose to report it immediately after finding the clues, but you dare come to contact him alone… Recently, the quality of psykers has been getting worse and worse.

　　However, just when he thought he was sure of winning.

　　From the flames came Ryota's energetic voice:

　　"You're moving, right? You're moving, right?"

　　Explosion!

　　There was an explosion.

　　It was the sound of air exploding under the great conflict of cold and heat.

　　A thick layer of ice instantly formed on the carbonized grass.

　　Ryota's soul power surged, shaking off the remaining flames.

　　Under the bone-piercing soul force clad in, his clothes were unaffected by the high temperature.

　　"Now that you are moving, things will be much easier! Huh..."

　　Ryota also grinned.

　　The carelessness of that expression was even more distorted than that of the youth opposite him.

　　This stunned the young man.

　　Unexpectedly, an illusion arose that the identities and positions of the two were reversed for no reason.

　　Phew — a sword cut through the air.

　　Ryota's soul power forms the Ming Hong Sword.

　　Red eyes in his eyes, as if very angry:

　　"You bastard, how dare you break my newest phone!? Fuck you!!"

　　Ha? Mad so far for just a cell phone?

　　The young man was dumbfounded, and subconsciously thought that he had experienced psychosis.

　　Shouldn't the place of anger be a surprise attack?

　　The next moment.

　　His thoughts were interrupted by a bright sword light.

　　The flames blazing around were blown away by the wind pressure generated when the sword was swung.

　　The young man subconsciously wanted to escape.

　　But he suddenly discovered that no matter which way he dodged, the same sword light was reflected in his field of vision.

　　It seemed to be split from all directions.

　　Ryota's extraordinary sword skills create a phenomenon that the young man can't understand.

　　Bang –

The sword slashed at him.

　　The air at the point of contact is instantly expelled, forming a small vacuum environment.

　　Ryota didn't immediately cut the opponent in half, but still held his hand.

　　Under the subtle control, a huge force instantly rushed into the opponent's body, shattering the muscles, bones and internal organs.

　　Instantly deprives the opponent of mobility.

　　With a thump, the youth flew upside down and fell to the ground.

　　But something that surprised Ryota happened.

　　The fallen youth stared at him viciously, and the slash wound on his body quickly healed… No, not only did it heal, but also his muscles swelled up, forming a hideous lump of flesh like a tumor, with blue veins appearing.

　　In less than three seconds, the young man's entire body swelled up, transforming into a nearly three meter tall monster.

　　That body was full of explosive physical strength that was visible to the naked eye.

　　"You bastard! You let the graceful me use this form…"

　　That youth… no, it was the monster that growled softly:

　　"I've made up my mind, I'll tear you apart piece by piece!"

　　"Go to hell!"

　　Ryota doesn't have the slightest bit of fear.

　　While shouting and cursing furiously, he bent his knees and jumped up, grinning and rushing over.

　　Explosion!

　　One large figure and one small figure collided.

　　The impact shattered the ice on the ground, flying in all directions.

　　The muscles in Ryota's arms bulged, and his sleeves were torn.

　　Huge power was exerted on the Ming Hong Sword, and there was a whistling sound of the wind when it was swung. The power was even more exaggerated than hitting people with a huge steel swing.

　　Boom, boom, boom... the air kept shaking.

　　The youth's transformed figure was beaten back and forth.

　　The difference in size makes no difference in strength at all.

　　His attacks are either blocked directly by Ryota, or easily dodged, without any achievement.

　　For a moment, bloody sword light covered the entire nearby courtyard.

　　The young man's body, which looked like a huge tumor, was chopped into an inhuman shape in a few seconds.

　　The relatively close riverbank was instantly chopped into pieces after the battle, and huge splashes emerged from the calm surface of the river.

　　"Aaaaaa--!"

　　Ryota roared wildly.

　　Four consecutive slashes were executed in one go.

　　Under the flowing trajectory of the sword, the young man's huge body did not have time to react, and his limbs were chopped off, turning into a human staff and falling to the ground.

　　"Calm down for me!"

　　Ryota stretched out his left hand, and grabbed the young man's normal sized face.

　　In the next second, the soul force that was tumbling turned into an icy torrent, flowing out from his left hand.

　　In an instant, the young man's mutilated body froze.

　　Under Ryota's kind control, a huge cocoon-like block of ice immediately formed and stood on the frozen grass.

　　The young man's mutilated body froze inside, like a worm in amber.

　　After doing all this, Ryota exhaled and suppressed the violent anger in his heart.

　　He didn't directly kill the other party, he naturally intended to take a long time to catch a big fish.

　　(It seems that I am indeed an adult, and I can save the other party's life in a furious situation.)

　　After complaining to himself, Ryota looked at the seven high school students who had not run far.
