Deceived

In the end, Ryota asked a lot of questions, but still didn't get any useful information from Kurumi.

　　Whether his guess was correct or not, the other party didn't answer. But judging from the situation where the other party was smiling so much that he couldn't maintain her graceful posture, this future hypothetical guess should already be out of the question.

　　Ryota discovered that Kurumi had been trying to find an opening to get away from him.

　　The desire to escape never stops. But the girl insisted it was useless. Just watching and waiting for the slack moment on his side.

　　"Let me tell you," Ryota said helplessly, "This isn't something to hide, is it? You see, now I know that you know me, so what's the point of continuing to hide it?"

　　"..."

　　Kurumi still didn't answer his question, just shook her head and said: "Let me go, I still have a lot of things to do, we shouldn't have any intersections."

　　"Shouldn't there be an intersection?" Ryota became interested, "Like the future and the present, shouldn't there be excessive contact, because it will affect the direction of the future?"

　　"Your guess is quite interesting." Kurumi smiled.

　　"... If you don't say anything," Ryota tried to threaten: "I will use coercion!"

　　"Ah… what does coercion mean?"

　　"I will torture you most brutally!"

　　"In particular?"

　　"…Take off your clothes, beat your naked body with a whip, then sprinkle all your wounds with sugar, then put down the ants, the ants will climb up and bite your wounds, you definitely can't endure such torture!"

　　"Ara ara… If you threaten a girl," Kurumi said with a smile, "It's better to use aggressive attacks."

　　Ryota: "..."

　　"Of course," Ryota said smoothly, "I'll bother you until you can't get up, then do the above."

　　However, Kurumi just looked at him calmly, and replied: "You won't."

　　"Why do you say that?"

　　"I only know that."

　　"..."

　　Ryota decided. Today he had to fight Kurumi to the death.

　　After all, the other party wasn't going to forcefully resist, so he kept holding her wrist, eating, drinking, and sleeping together.

　　Let's see how long she can last!

　　"Ryota, I think you should pay more attention to that than mine."

Just when Ryota decided to spend it.

　　Kurumi suddenly let out a voice, and after attracting his attention, she pointed at the harbor on the other side of the sea.

　　Ryota looked at her finger.

　　The port was burned when Mori gave up the domain. Currently still in a state of flames and thick smoke.

　　Thick black smoke obscured the view, and the situation there was completely invisible.

　　Ryota thought Kurumi wouldn't be able to point blindly, so he used mental induction.

　　Immediately, he felt soul force fluctuations with killing intent, malice and other negative and brutal emotions. And there are 70 such fluctuations. In terms of senses, it is similar to a ghost.

　　Ghost...

　　"That's right! The ghosts on the ship have not been dealt with!"

　　Ryota suddenly remembered.

　　The cultists' original plan was to use the ghosts to attract the attention of the psyker alliance.

　　Even though the cultists including Mori are dead now, the ghosts they brought with them are still on the cruise. Judging from sensory feedback, these ghosts were ashore.

　　"Don't worry, I have already stopped them." Kurumi reminded Ryota.

　　Ryota looked at her in surprise: "I remember... there are a lot of evil spirits there, right?"

　　"As long as there are no Meme, there is no threat to stage three psykers."

　　Kurumi explained: "The third stage is called 'creation', which manifests the desire in the heart as a domain detached from the current world, and transforms itself into an foreign existence. Under the domain, it is no longer a common sense attack, a ghost that doesn't reach Meme's level is not even an opponent. So..."

　　She smiled lightly: "You go now, just kill them one by one, and I will always help you."

　　"Thank you."

　　Ryota still grabbed her wrist, and pulled her towards the harbor, saying while walking: "Let's go there together, otherwise the distance will be far, and it will be bad if your domain becomes invalid."

　　"Don't worry, that's not going to happen."

　　"What if?"

　　"Nothing wrong with that. I've never done anything wrong."

　　"Is it true? I don't believe it."

　　"..."

　　...

　　Kurumi ended up being dragged to the harbor by force by Ryota.

　　Ryota grabbed her wrist with one hand and the Ming Hong Sword with the other, and came to the beach where dozens of ghosts were trapped.

　　Originally, he was planning on hacking to death. But only when it's time to do it. Seeing the appearance of the ghosts, Ryota suddenly frowned.

　　Before ghosts evolve from ghosts to [Rule] level, they generally maintain their appearance in life.

　　What appeared before his eyes were all female ghosts, and none of them looked particularly old.

　　The youngest is the same as the little girl in the hotel last time. The oldest looked 17 years old at most.

　　Ryota suddenly hesitated. If the Ming Hong Sword chopped them down like this, would their souls be scattered?

　　If it was him before, he would have attacked head on without mercy. But after knowing the method used by cult members to artificially create ghosts, he finally felt uneasy.

　　Ryota knew that he would make his move eventually. Because the dead in this world are full of hatred for the living, and the contradictions are irreconcilable.

　　The doubts are just his sympathies at work. Reason would eventually suppress such thoughts. But before pressing it really tormented.

　　At this time, Kurumi suddenly said: "Don't worry, the soul destroyed by Ming Hong's Sword will be sent to reincarnation. This is the essence of Ming Hong's soul restraint. You can slash with confidence."

　　"..."

　　Ryota tilted his head, looked at the girl beside him, and said with difficulty:

　　"Why do you know my sword better than me?"

　　"Know it from somewhere else."

　　"...If you don't say it, then keep consuming."

　　Ryota shrugged, saying that he didn't care.

　　He did not doubt what Kurumi said.

　　This girl is too mysterious for him and knows many things about him.

　　Just come up with an excuse to cheer him up... the chances aren't that high.

　　Thinking of this, the doubts in his heart dissipated. Then, approach one of the frozen ghouls and stab them with a sword.

　　It's a shame that outsiders can't see this strange picture. In less than three minutes, all the ghosts disappeared.

　　Ryota pulled Kurumi and walked towards leaving the port of Yokohama.

　　"The official organization will come here to deal with the aftermath, and we don't need to worry about the rest."

　　Ryota said while walking: "Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner. After dinner, we will go home."

　　"..." Kurumi asked, "You still want to take me home?"

　　"That's right," Ryota said with a chuckle: "Until you tell me how you know me, I'm not letting go. We eat, sleep and go to the toilet together ... Oh, yes, I don't need to go to the toilet. I don't know if you need it or not?

　　"..."

　　"Don't worry, I'll turn around and won't peek at you."

　　"Ah, what a 'gentleman'. Unfortunately, I don't need it either."

　　Kurumi smiled, with a bit of a reluctant tone: "Pretty girls don't know how to go to the bathroom. After all, it's easy for me not to sleep for a long time."

　　"Coincidentally, I was also able to go without sleep for three months straight."

　　Ryota's happy eyes about "meeting like-minded people"

　　"Anyway, the healing power is here, and I won't die suddenly. It's up to it who lasts longer."

　　"..."

　　Kurumi sighed lightly: "Why do you have to force me so much. Forget it, I'll tell you everything you want to know."

　　Hearing this, Ryota breathed a sigh of relief.

　　Don't look at what he just said smoothly, those things... He really can't do it.

　　"How do you know me?" Ryota asked, "We meet in the future?"

　　Kurumi shook her head:

　　"No, our time is in sync, and traveling through the past isn't as simple as you think. The reason why I know you is because the situation is more complicated, and it's hard to put into words…"

　　After thinking about it, she suggested: "If you don't mind, I will pass on the memory to you in person."

　　"Passing through memory..." Ryota said in surprise, "You can do this kind of thing too?"

　　"Also...?"

　　"It's fine, please don't worry about it."

　　"Okay."

　　Kurumi explained: "Soul power can store memories, and third stage psykers can transmit information through soul power. However, you are not a psyker, so if I want to pass it on to you, I must touch the Ming Hong Sword. And you must remind Ming Hong not to stop me. "

　　"Ming Hong..."

　　Ryota nodded, and the empty hand summoned a sword to hold it.

　　Seeing that, Kurumi stretched out her uncaught hand, and touched the body of the sword, exhorting:

　　"The impact may be a bit big, you close your eyes and concentrate on receiving my soul power."

　　Seeing what she said was so professional, Ryota took action quickly and closed his eyes.

　　Soul power fluctuations were born and directly attacked.

　　Ryota felt it carefully, and then nothing was found.

　　Just when he was wondering if Ming Hong was blocking it.

　　Suddenly, he felt his lips being touched by something soft and sweet. The tip of the nose inhaled a faint scent of perfume.

　　Soon after, the touch on the lips became warm and moist. It felt like a lick, the touch quickly left him again.

　　Ryota subconsciously touched his lips with his hand, fan pondering in his heart what happened – Kurumi kissed him.

　　He opened his eyes and looked ahead.

　　The girl with the clock eye has disappeared.

　　But at this time, he was holding the Ming Hong Sword in one hand, and the other hand that should have been holding the girl's wrist instinctively pulled back and touched his lips.

　　He was tricked again!

　　Kurumi actually used blur.

　　Looking at the empty ruins in front of him, Ryota felt a doubt in his heart.

　　Why was Kurumi able to conclude that he would definitely withdraw his hand and touch his lips?

　　What if he doesn't accept it?

　　She kissed him and didn't run... Wouldn't she be embarrassed?
