Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

"Look……"

Fujiwara Chika's eyes were brimming with tears.

Before he could finish speaking, Amamiya Natsuki covered Fujiwara's mouth with her hand.

"Don't speak." Amamiya Natsuki leaned close to Fujiwara Chika's ear, lowered her voice, and quickly said, "Pretend you didn't see anything."

Once you officially obtain player status, you will be able to see the true nature of the world.

To be honest, compared to the real world, Natsuki Amamiya found the vengeful spirits in the Netherworld Academy to be more adorable. At least they all had human forms. Apart from being pale-faced, walking lightly without making a sound, and always keeping their heads down, some of the vengeful spirits were no different from ordinary people.

The evil spirits that roam the real world are more terrifying than the last.

The evil spirit lurking in the corridor clearly didn't believe it. Like a giant serpent, it coiled around, its eyes glowing crimson, its long black hair flying into the air, and it hissed shrieked.

"You've seen me! I'm going to eat you!"

Fortunately, Natsuki Amamiya had been keeping the aura of evil spirits repelled active. The long hair that rushed in was like flammable material that had accidentally fallen into a flame, and it quickly burst into flames.

The flames spread upwards, burning along the black hair.

The evil spirit in the corridor initially looked bewildered, but soon screamed, patted the flames on its body, and quickly fled into the distance.

"...left."

Kaguya Shinomiya breathed a sigh of relief, only then realizing that her palms were sweaty.

Even the Ice Princess Kaguya has things she fears, and ghosts are one of them.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that, aside from the perverted, no one can remain indifferent to this.

"What...what was that just now?"

Fujiwara Chika's eyes were misty with tears. "That's terrifying!"

"Someone's coming." Kaguya Shinomiya pressed her temples and said in a low voice, "Let's go back to the classroom first."

at the same time.

"Jianzi, are you okay?"

The girl with short orange hair stretched out her right hand and waved it curiously in front of Yotsuya Miko, "Why did you suddenly stop?"

Yuri Kawana looked up at the sky and glanced around, saying, "There's clearly nothing in the corridor."

You're wrong.

A terrifying evil spirit was just lurking in the corridor.

"I'm fine." Miko Yotsuya shook her head. "I suddenly remembered something very important..."

"Hey, what's going on?"

"You called me and I suddenly forgot again."

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry."

"..."

As Yotsuya Miko complained, she walked upstairs, her mind involuntarily recalling everything she had just witnessed.

The terrifying evil spirit that was coiled up on the ceiling of the corridor like a snake suddenly burst into flames as it got close to Natsuki, and then fled in a panic.

What happened just now?

Yotsuya Miko recalled what happened this morning in front of the convenience store: the evil spirit dressed in a convenience store uniform suddenly disappeared for no reason, and she was curious about what had happened.

Looking back now, it must have something to do with Natsuki.

Seeing what had just happened, the black-haired, golden-eyed girl couldn't help but clench her fists. A happy smile then appeared on her tired face, which was etched with sleep deprivation and long-term stress.

Super Plus enjoy!

Hope has finally reappeared in my bleak life!

About a week ago, Yotsuya Miko, who had just started school, returned home in the evening and, for some reason, suddenly saw all sorts of terrifying evil spirits around her.

Sprinkling salt can ward off evil spirits.

cross.

garlic.

Holy water.

The guardian of the shrine.

Yotsuya Miko even went to Amazon and gritted her teeth to buy a peach wood sword to ward off evil spirits.

Unfortunately, none of them worked.

No one but oneself can see these evil spirits, let alone expel or destroy them.

Miko Yotsuya felt like a husky that had wandered into a pack of wolves. Once her identity was exposed, she would be torn to shreds. She lived in constant fear, as if walking on thin ice, and her life was filled with nothing but gloom.

but now……

“Hey~!”

It's decided, I'll take the initiative tonight!

They're childhood sweethearts, so surely no random stranger would suddenly appear out of nowhere, right?

Inside the classroom.

Amamiya Natsuki walked to her seat and put down her schoolbag.

It was still early, and the classroom was empty except for a few students; it was quite quiet.

"Kaguya-chan, can you tell me now?" Fujiwara Chika asked softly, "Why is reality even scarier than the game?"

"I'm not too sure either……"

Kaguya Shinomiya pursed her pink lips slightly, her fingers playing with the strands of hair behind her ear. In a cool tone, she recounted the events of yesterday and the present, and then said, "My intuition tells me that if those evil spirits find out that we can see them, something terrible will happen."

Fujiwara Chika wanted to cry but had no tears.

sorry.

Super regretful.

Unfortunately, there's no going back in life.

"The aura that dispelled the evil spirit just now was something I got from a blind box..."

Seeing Fujiwara Chika looking over, Amamiya Natsuki explained.

"Huh?" Fujiwara Chika's eyes lit up. "So you can open blind boxes?"

"Where is it? Where is it? I've always been incredibly lucky."

Natsuki Amamiya reminded everyone: "You can see it by opening the game store."

"Hmm... I see it." Fujiwara Chika looked at the air in front of her and muttered to herself, "There are also permanent attributes next to it, priced at fifty game coins."

Amamiya Natsuki looked over curiously, but could only see empty air; the game panels of other players were indeed invisible.

It's a pity that I can't see the blind boxes in other people's online stores, so I can't help them even if I want to.

"The attribute is called 'Miracle of One Centimeter.' After purchasing it, it can make any part of your body grow by one centimeter..." Fujiwara Chika's eyes widened. "What? What's the use of growing one centimeter in height?"

"..."

Natsuki Amamiya fell into deep thought.

Where is the most appropriate place to add the miracle of one centimeter?

Chapter 22 Kaguya-sama: Love Is War, Kindergarten Level

"Open blind boxes!"

It has to be said that Fujiwara is quite thick-skinned; she was just scared to tears, but in the blink of an eye, she's happy again.

"Let me tell you, I've always been very lucky. A few days ago, I bought a drink from a vending machine and won a hidden prize."

What is the hidden grand prize?

Amamiya Natsuki asked curiously.

He had no idea that ordinary vending machines had hidden perks.

Fujiwara Chika put her hands on her hips, tilted her chin up proudly, revealing a glimpse of her long, slender, snow-white neck:

"Heh heh, it's another bottle."

Another bottle is hardly a hidden prize! If you were really lucky, you wouldn't have been chosen as the unlucky one!

"You can only buy one blind box per day." Kaguya Shinomiya crossed her arms, her tone cool and composed. "If Fujiwara-san wants to, you can do it now."

Survival games are fraught with danger.

Currently, it seems that the value of permanent attribute upgrades is not as high as that of daily blind boxes.

For example, the Ghost Academy, which I just finished playing.

The cat-ear hair accessory played a key role in her dominance of the academy.

"Blind boxes, here I come!"

Fujiwara Chika's eyes sparkled. She looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to her, quickly produced an ordinary-looking blind box in her hand.

She skipped the steps of bathing, changing clothes, burning incense, and praying devoutly. Fujiwara Chika simply patted her chest twice with both hands and then opened the blind box without hesitation.

As a faint white light appeared, the blind box in Fujiwara Chika's hand vanished into thin air, leaving only an unopened pack of tissues.

【Name: Qingfeng Brand Tissue Paper】

[Attribute: An ordinary pack of tissues, if placed on the bedside table late at night, might become a pack of scented tissues, or in short, the Shroud of the Dead]

"..."

Looking at the tissues in the girl's hand, the three of them fell silent.

I was really lucky.

In the event of the apocalypse, this pack of tissues would be an indispensable survival resource.
