Abnormal Moon

But at this moment.

The atmosphere seemed to have been crushed and exploded violently, with a piercing bang that resounded almost nearby, making eardrums ache.

Volcano Head turned his head instantly.

One of his eyes widened suddenly as he stared incredulously in the direction from which the sound came—the very center of the flames.

"Who are you saying died without even leaving ashes?"

The flames then exploded outwards following the atmospheric burst.

The surrounding air currents vibrated, sending the flames flying and creating waves of heat in all directions.

In the center of the flames, the first thing that catches the eye is a flesh-colored fist.

It was as if he had used only one punch, a single blow, to shatter the flames covering his body, as if a god had descended to earth.

Immediately afterwards, the white-haired, red-eyed boy, who seemed like an anomaly, emerged from the sea of ​​fire.

He was spotless from head to toe, with not a single scorch mark on his clothes, as if he had been completely isolated from the flames.

His blood-red pupils radiated an arrogant light, and a calm smile graced his sculpted face.

"So it really is you two? Louhu and Hanami..."

Roy's gaze swept over the two cursed spirits, a look of certainty flashing in his eyes.

With a volcano-like head and a short stature like a hunchbacked old man, the cursed spirit is none other than Louhu, one of the top-tier cursed spirits. Born from humanity's fear of the earth, it is the strongest among cursed spirits.

The cursed spirit beside him had skin as gray as trees, its left arm wrapped in cloth, and its entire body covered in mysterious black patterns. Although it looked like a muscular man, it gave off a more feminine feeling.

Her name is Hanami, a special-grade cursed spirit born from humanity's fear of the forest. The tree branches that grew from her eyes are the best proof of this, and her strength should not be underestimated.

Possessing intelligence is one of the characteristics of a top-tier cursed spirit.

These two cursed spirits undoubtedly stand at the pinnacle of the cursed spirit faction. Both are worthy of mention, and in the eyes of humans in this world, they are probably like demons.

"Impossible! He was hit head-on by my attack and is completely unharmed?!"

Louhu, sporting a volcano-like head, stared at Roy in disbelief, one of his eyes shrinking sharply incredulously.

"*%￥￥# (As expected, the real person was right!)!"

Hua Yu's voice also tightened. She spread her legs apart, leaned her upper body slightly forward, and was ready to start the battle again.

"￥%#￥%* (This guy isn't so easy to deal with, don't be careless, Leaky!)"

Hanami's gaze was fixed on Roy, and she solemnly warned her companion, Louhu.

"I was just a little startled, that's why I wasn't careless. You don't need to say anything more!"

Lou Hu snapped out of his daze, snorted coldly, and two volcanoes appeared wriggling in his palm, ready for battle as well.

Hua Yu didn't say much, focusing intently on guarding against Roy.

And under their gaze.

Roy, however, couldn't stand it and patted his ear.

"This voice is really strange. It's supposed to be incomprehensible, but it automatically understands the meaning once it enters your brain... Never mind, that's not important. What's important is that since you're all here, the real person won't be absent either, right?"

Roy looked at the two cursed spirits in front of him, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He secretly expanded his awareness to the maximum extent, extending his spatial perception capabilities to the greatest extent possible.

The moment he appeared here, he was ambushed by two top-tier curse spirits, indicating that these two curse spirits had long considered this place a location that needed to be guarded against, believing that enemies might appear here.

Although it's hard to believe, the root cause might have been identified too thoroughly.

It is very possible that after the real person was saved by this world at the moment of death, he appeared in this place, or you could say that he returned.

Then, following the real person's location, they also threw Roy into this place.

This is a landing spot just like the one the real person used.

As a result, he was caught red-handed by Louhu and Huayu, who were lying in ambush there.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been targeted by two wandering top-tier curse spirits the moment he arrived in this world. That would be too coincidental, too unlucky, with a probability as low as winning the lottery.

The reason why Louhu and Huayu ambushed him here was most likely because they were instigated by Zhenren.

"Hahahaha!"

At that moment, a piercing laugh, so sharp it seemed to shatter eardrums, came from the sky.

Roy's eyes flickered, his expression remained unchanged, but he took a step back, moving three steps away.

"Boom!"

Immediately afterward, a figure descended from the sky, brushing past his retreating form, and slammed into the asphalt ground like a giant hammer, shattering the earth within a few meters around him like leaf patterns.

"I'm so glad you still remember me!"

The figure was about three meters tall, and standing in front of Roy, he looked like a small giant.

Although his body resembled that of a human, it was covered in purple pustules, and his skin was a sickly bluish-purple, like a corpse that had been hanged alive. His body reeked of a strong, rotten stench.

Compared to that, the tiny stitches on his body were hardly a noticeable feature.

Although this monster looks somewhat different from the one I saw in Tokyo a few days ago, it is undoubtedly the real person!

He watched as the real person landed in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, Roy regained his balance, which had been momentarily swayed by the earthquake. He spun around like a top and delivered a powerful spinning kick to the real man!

"boom!"

The force of that kick shook the very air, creating a deafening roar as if the air itself had been blasted apart.

But the real person reacted quickly, bringing his arms together at his sides to form a defensive stance.

"boom!"

A powerful force, like a mountain collapsing, struck, and the real man was kicked backward in the blink of an eye.

But as he was kicked away, the pustules on his arms burst open, gushing out purple, poisonous blood that sprayed out like raindrops, covering Roy.

Roy remained expressionless, completely ignoring the poisonous blood.

The next moment, a barrier shining with pure white light appeared on his body without warning, blocking not a single drop of the poisonous blood from his body, without even touching his clothes.

"Such a swift exchange! Such immense power!"

Louhu stared wide-eyed, his unblinking gaze seeming to see through the person and the spirit on the field, his heart filled with disbelief.

"I couldn't sense any flow of magical energy at all. They weren't using magical energy to strengthen their bodies; they were fighting purely with their physical bodies!"

Although the real person has become much more unfamiliar, the cursed spirit is not so concerned about appearance. As long as its strength can increase, there is nothing to complain about.

In comparison, that human is the real monster!

It seems that in a simple contest of physical strength, he used his superior power to suppress the real person.

"He's as flawless as ever!"

The man was kicked more than ten meters away, crawling on the ground like a wild beast, his limbs leaving a trail of poisonous blood as they rubbed against the asphalt. It took him a while to stop.

His face, covered in sores, was now contorted with excitement, like that of a drug addict going through withdrawal; his eyes held almost no intelligence.

"Even in that dreamlike place, both the black-haired and red-haired guys had their Achilles' heel, but you were the only one who put on a heartless face!"

"That's great! It seems that I wasn't dreaming, but that it actually happened somewhere—otherwise, I couldn't accept looking like this!"

The real man's tone suddenly turned gloomy, like a restless beast growling in anger.

A place like a dream?

Upon hearing this, Roy raised an eyebrow slightly, as if deep in thought.

Does the real person seem less confident about their memories of the Type-Moon universe? Do they think it happened in a dream?

Despite the enormous changes that had occurred to him, from barely resembling a human to being so ugly that even ghosts would be humbled, he wasn't very confident in his memories.

Could it be that the source tampered with his memories?

Right.

Even if the real person couldn't bring back any benefits from the Type-Moon world, the Root probably wouldn't want to see things about him spread to other worlds.

It's likely that while letting the real person leave, He also tampered with the real person's memories, making them much more blurred.

The evidence is that he clearly understood before that he had traveled to the Type-Moon world, but now he regards the Type-Moon world as a "dreamlike place," which means he has probably lost his understanding of "traveling to another world."

But since he has the skill, why not just erase the real person's memories completely...? Perhaps that would be too much of a move and expose his location? This is probably a realm of inter-world power struggles, something he can't interfere with right now.

The reason why Genyuan didn't tell Roy about this was probably because he didn't take such a small matter seriously at all.

"You really look so ugly that you can't be seen by anyone."

Roy snapped out of his thoughts, looked the man up and down, and his eyes revealed undisguised disdain.

"Not only has your appearance become ugly, but it seems you've even lost your brain. Could it be that your brain is also covered in sores?"

The toxic blood he left on the ground as he was kicked was now corroding the asphalt, emitting a strong, burnt smell.

That was poison from a curse.

"It's all thanks to you!"
