Chihaya Aine has nine wings

"Eh--"

Aine was disappointed.

“But it’s not without trace.”

The teacher pointed out, "According to legend, there is heaven and hell, you know that, right?"

"I know that. But that's just a legend, isn't it?"

"Well...actually, it's not."

The teacher said, "In the last century, a certain psychic in the Vatican secretly proved that heaven and hell actually exist."

"……what?"

"But it was not created by God."

"That is?"

“It is a natural accumulation of emotional energy.”

The teacher nodded his head and said, "As long as people are alive, their souls will automatically generate emotional energy. The emotional energy generated by millions of people over millions of years naturally accumulates and condenses into a physical entity."

"Can emotional energy become a physical entity?"

"Well, any emotion, any hope, once it becomes strong enough to exceed a certain threshold, can affect the real world. For example, heaven is a collection of positive emotions, while hell is the accumulation of negative emotions."

“…How amazing.”

"Indeed, although it's not as powerful as your ability."

"Then, is it possible that someone's ability can manipulate emotional energy? Is it possible to use emotional energy to build entities?"

"Well... I haven't seen him, but I heard from my colleagues that there seems to be a child about your age in your hometown who has the ability to store and manipulate emotional energy."

The teacher stroked his chin and said, "It can even affect reality."

"Eh?!"

Aiyin's eyes sparkled, "Who is that child?"

She was curious.

"I don't know, I just heard about it. After all, any family of a superpower would block the news of such a powerful ability."

The teacher turned his eyes and seemed to have thought of something.

"But, I remember that the child who was said to be able to influence reality with emotional energy was called a "devil" because he caused a great disaster when he was born?"

"【demon】?"

Aine opened her eyes wide, “Doesn’t that mean she’s a pair with my Angel? Doesn’t that mean she has the opposite type of power to me?”

"Hahaha... How could that be? It's just that the names seem contradictory. In fact, her abilities have nothing to do with yours."

The teacher waved his hands, "Emotional energy sounds mysterious and powerful, but compared to you, your ability is indeed more incomprehensible."

"Is this so..."

"But, but... [Angels] and [Devils]..."

The teacher seemed to have thought of something interesting. "This name may really indicate the future, some kind of destiny."

……

Aiyin has always remembered this conversation with her teacher.

After returning to Japan, she would often try to find out if anyone had the title of "Devil".

"...Lixilixi, do you know anything about [Devil]?..."

"Huh? Have you read too many picture books?"

"...Xiaoxiang, Xiaoxiang, do you know the Devil?..."

"Hmm? Why are you asking this... I'm just curious. I don't know either. Maybe you can ask someone else. By the way, don't ask Ruomai."

...But, after asking many people, there was no result.

For a long time, Aine thought that "Devil" was just a legend made up by her teacher.

And, only now, the pink-haired girl tilted her head back and murmured.

"Oh it's you……"

The leader of AveMujica, Oblivionis.

You are the Devil

Gulu gulu...

Like the sound of boiling magma, black viscous liquid was gushing out from every shadow on the battlefield.

【Hate】

【fear】

【anger】

【Evil Desire】……

Even though Aine had never seen what emotional energy looked like, she was completely certain that the things in front of her, which were so thick that they had turned from gas to liquid and were filled with negative emotions, were the legendary emotional energy.

puff.

puff.

puff……

Moreover, the hideous demons that stood up from the black mud were all entities composed of emotional energy.

There are so many of them, too many to count.

Not only are there many of them, but each demon has a different form.

The lower body is made up of many human hands, and the upper body is a huge tomato covered with eyeballs. It is a demon created by people's disgust for tomatoes.

It looks like a rotting corpse, with gray skin and a shape that looks like twisted, rotten flesh. It is a demon created by people's fear and disgust of zombies.

A demon with the characteristics of a bat but the size of a small giant, it is made up of people's negative emotions towards bats.

It has no fixed form, it is like a floating mist, with a human face and countless hands as tentacles. The demon is made up of people's negative emotions towards ghosts...

If we were to classify negative emotions, we could divide them into thousands of categories.

And these thousands of negative emotions can be transformed into reality under the influence of Xiangzi's ability.

It became like a demon with its own life.

Thousands and thousands.

One man becomes an army.

Chapter 117: What are you doing during the fierce battle?

Aa ...

Xiangzi pointed his finger in the air.

Various demons, uttering different screams, rushed forward in different postures, charging at the countless life puppets.

The two sides engaged in a melee.

Loud.

The roar alone was deafening to Aine.

The demons were fighting the puppets. What was noteworthy was that the puppets' seemingly soft green fluorescent tentacles were actually as hard as diamonds. When the demons' claws collided with them, sparks flew.

The dodder's body swooped down with a shrill sound, so fast that it was almost invisible. Although its green butterfly wings looked as soft as paper, they were actually extremely sharp. It didn't even touch the tree, but the sharp wind it brought had already plowed two deep dents on the surface of the tree.

Rushing towards Xiangzi.

Xiangzi frowned and looked serious. The scarlet mist hidden in the darkness condensed into a long knife in his hand, which collided with its wings.

clang--

The long sound of metal collision echoed above the tree cluster, and Xiangzi and Dodder retreated separately.

The blade in Xiangzi's hand collapsed.

The wings of the dodder were also dented.

"I rely on!"

The captain lost his voice.

He was surprised that Oblivionis's non-standard knife-drawing posture, which was obviously a layman's, could actually make a dent in Dodder's wings, which condensed the vitality of the entire Big Tree Hotel.

"……I go."

Ruomai grinned.

She was surprised that Toyokawa Shoko's knife did not gain the upper hand.

When emotional energy accumulates to the extreme, it can affect reality. This is not only reflected in the fact that emotional energy can be condensed into familiars similar to living creatures, but also in the fact that emotional energy of a certain purity can affect the rules of reality.

For example, the black long sword just now was condensed from the emotion of [hatred].

When hatred reaches its peak, nothing can be left undestroyed.

But just now, the Blade of Hatred was unable to overcome the life energy of Dodder in the collision and was slightly at a disadvantage.

...Although Xiangzi did not really show all his true abilities, this also shows how powerful Cuscuta is now.

The dodder flapped its wings and the broken wings returned to their original shape.

Xiangzi narrowed his eyes and the blade condensed again.

Then, a wild bull rushed over howling from a distance and hit Dodder.

It was the cow that Aine had tamed.

Logically speaking, with Dodder's current strength, she should be able to completely defeat the bull, but... Dodder was still knocked away.

There is no other reason.

Hiroi Kikuri rode on the cow's back, grabbed the dodder's head with both hands, and pried it apart.

——【Wrestling, I win】

No matter how strong it is, it is like thin paper in front of Hiroi Kikuchi.

tear-

The green shell, like the flesh, was torn apart, and the core inside was the original skeleton of the dodder.

This skeleton is gray, and it looks like Dodder has now completely transformed into some other creature.

puff--

The sound of jam spurting.

The green life energy exploded like liquid, blowing the skeleton away and allowing the "fruit core" to escape from Hiroi Kikuri. During the explosion, the green life energy "fruit flesh" once again adhered to each other, gathered, condensed, flowed in mid-air, and wrapped the "fruit core" that flew out again.

The emerald green glowing body took shape again.

So difficult!

It cannot be beaten normally, but if it is beaten it will run away like a loach.

How could there be such an annoying enemy?

Hiroi Kikuri jumped up from the bull and wanted to chase it, but was knocked back to the ground by a ghost ship.

Everyone looked up.

All the ghost ships were falling towards the surface of the tree cluster, passing through the blockade of thunder and lightning, burning with flames and trailing flames like a meteor shower.

That’s right——It’s [all]

That captain, at this moment, gave up everything he had on the ship.

The area covered by this meteor shower is even larger than the entire surface of the tree cluster!
