Afterwards, she was approached and questioned by Sanae Dekomori, but she ignored her with an indifferent attitude.

The humiliation we suffered before must be repaid!

"Never mind, stupid humans will never catch our eye anyway."

Sanae Tokomaru didn't press the issue; she left with a single sentence and departed with composure.

"Patients with severe secondary disease."

Miko Iino muttered something to herself with a strange look in her eyes.

"Are all the people in the Far East Magic Society like this? Or is it..."

When it was time for lunch break...

"Why the rooftop? School rules state that students are not allowed on the rooftop..."

As Iino Miko walked up the stairs, she felt very awkward thinking about it.

Because this is different from her style.

But leaving like this would be rather clumsy!

"What are you waiting for? Iino-san, you've been standing at the door for quite a while now."

Suddenly, a voice entered my ears.

Discovered?

Miko Iino was startled, pursed her lips, and still crossed the threshold to enter the rooftop.

A gentle spring breeze stirs the bangs on my forehead.

Under the canvas of blue sky and white clouds.

The boy, who had his back to him, slowly turned around. His pair of ice-blue eyes were clear and bright, as if they could see through everything in the world.

She was almost mesmerized by this scene.

As expected, to become the 'King of Shuchiin,' one needs not only strength but also good looks!

Just as the girl was sighing inwardly, Izumi Hasegawa spoke.

"Alright, Iino-senpai, please ask whatever you want to ask."

"Hasegawa-senpai, actually, I heard that the Far East Magic Society can handle mysterious cases... Is that true?"

The fact that Iino Miko would ask such a question naturally indicates that she is facing this kind of trouble.

Unable to solve the mystery as an ordinary person, she had no choice but to adopt a "what's the use" attitude and search for the person most likely to understand.

It just so happens that the rumored abilities of Hasegawa-senpai are so strong that they seem inhuman, and he is very likely the legendary being who has ventured into the 'inner world'.

Chapter 8: The girl who felt lingering fear.

"of course it's true."

Izumi Hasegawa answered without hesitation.

"Then, is there any way to verify it? For example, by demonstrating some incredible power..."

Iino Miko did not readily believe it, because she was a serious and strict person, and if she hadn't witnessed it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have had any interest in these topics at all.

"Is that what you're talking about?"

Hasegawa Izumi extended her right hand, and a dazzling light shone from her fingertips.

"Wow!!"

Miko Iino was startled at first, then leaned closer to examine it closely and confirm whether it was some kind of magic.

"May I touch it?"

She looked up and asked like a curious child.

"can."

He affirmed.

As if she had made up her mind, Iino Miko reached out to touch it.

"It doesn't seem like anything special?"

Then, she discovered that when her fingers touched the mysterious power, they merged into it as if they were touching light.

"is it?"

With a flick of her wrist, Yusegawa Izumi sent a burst of spiritual energy flying out and landing on her forehead.

"Snapped."

"It hurts so much...!"

Iino Miko covered her forehead with both hands, looking like she was about to cry.

"Hasegawa-senpai, why did you hit me!"

"If that's not enough proof, I can go a step further."

"I'm so sorry... Senpai Hasegawa, I was so rude. This is the first time I've ever witnessed such power."

Seeing his threatening expression, the girl swallowed hard and quickly agreed.

Iino Miko is actually very smart, and she quickly understood her senior's intention.

This is telling her to have reverence for the 'mystery,' or there will be serious consequences.

Let's continue with our previous topic.

Hasegawa Izumi said dismissively.

"Um……"

After rubbing her forehead, Iino Miko lowered her hands and looked at Hasegawa with a subtle change in her gaze.

After those few minutes of brief contact, she understood.

The rumors were indeed unreliable. Based on her senior's previous 'overbearing' behavior, she judged that her senior had a rather rough and domineering personality, was a very capable and strong person, and was also very unscrupulous in his private life, a super harem, planning to build the club and even Shuchiin into a harem...

In retrospect, this was actually a misunderstanding on her part.

The senior's decisive and efficient methods may simply be due to a desire to avoid trouble, and thus they chose the most efficient approach.

Furthermore, considering the senior's noble character and extraordinary demeanor, it's likely simply because the senior was so sought after.

"Hasegawa-senpai, I need your help!"

She took a deep breath, then solemnly bowed at a 90-degree angle, doing her utmost.

In Japanese etiquette, this is usually used for occasions of commemoration, repentance, or apology.

Judging from the girl's trembling waist, it was clear that this was quite strenuous for her, and she probably had never done it before.

"There's no need for such a grand gesture."

Izumi Hasegawa raised her hand.

"Eh?"

Iino Miko felt as if her upper body was being lifted up by an unseen force, and then she stood up straight again.

Such power is truly incredible!

"Let me be frank, I happen to have a lot of free time right now, so I can help you with this."

Hanesegawa Izumi continued.

In fact, he had more than just free time. Because he was a hands-off manager, most of the requests received by the Far East Magic Society were handled by the girls, while he basically spent his days playing games and reading novels and comics.

People can't stay idle for long; once it goes on like this for too long, they'll start to get bored.

Especially after his usual gaming partners became addicted to cultivating immortality.

So he chose to grant the girl's request not because he valued her for some quality that was similar to Yukinoshita, but simply because he felt that as the president of the company, it was necessary to meet the KPIs and set an example.

"Um……"

Iino Miko felt a sense of peace spreading through her chest. She lowered her head, responded in a voice barely audible, and then recounted the problems she had encountered.

“My father is a Supreme Court judge. The reason for this is because of a case he judged a few years ago. The suspect drugged his boyfriend due to a relationship dispute and then cruelly dismembered him while he was still alive, which caused a huge social uproar. My father, taking public opinion into consideration, sentenced him to death. However, just a month ago, the criminal was released without charge. My father couldn’t understand it and asked around, but he was just given the runaround.”

"Me too! How dare they release a 'demon' without charge!"

At this point, she suddenly couldn't help but express her opinion, her brows furrowing in anger.

Because her father was a judge and her mother was an employee of an international humanitarian aid organization, Iino Miko developed a very strong sense of justice from a young age and adopted a zero-tolerance attitude towards the ugly phenomena in school life, so she was even more indignant about such injustices.

"and then."

Hasegawa Izumi remained calm and composed.

He had seen too much injustice in the world, but the things around him were more likely to touch his heart.

"After that, some very strange things started happening in our family..."

As Iino Miko spoke, something suddenly came to mind, and a look of fear flashed in her eyes. Her hands trembled uncontrollably as she clutched her chest.

“Dad started seeing the legendary ‘evil spirits.’ At first, he thought it was just his imagination and didn’t take it seriously. But later, the hallucinations became stronger and stronger. Dad started to be so scared that he couldn’t sleep well, and his mental state deteriorated. Even seeing a doctor and getting medicine didn’t help. In the end, he had to take a long leave of absence and lock himself at home…”

"At first, Mom wanted to use modern medicine to help Dad overcome his difficulties, but after repeatedly hitting a wall, she had to give up on that path and choose another one..."

“My mother heard from someone that she found a psychic old woman who called herself a ‘divine mother’. The old woman sold my mother beads to ward off evil spirits. At first, I thought my mother was being scammed. However, my father’s symptoms did improve a lot. But the good times didn’t last long. When our family went to thank the old woman, we found that her shop was closed. She left us a note saying that she had offended a powerful psychic by helping us and was going to lay low for a while.”

"Now I finally understand! The 'demon' who was acquitted was the psychic who could drive Grandma away. Dad's misfortunes were all the devil's deliberate revenge. She wanted to torture us to death!"

The girl, who had initially been skeptical, now looked back and felt a chill run down her spine.

Chapter 9: Did she bring her boyfriend back?

For ordinary people, such bizarre methods are really hard to guard against.

If the other party had murderous intent from the beginning...

Iino Miko dared not think any further.

"Does being a psychic give you the right to act with impunity?! Is there no justice left in this world?!"

She felt extremely frustrated and had to vent.

"Of course there are still limitations. Maybe it's not just because that psychic wanted to torture your father, but also because she was restricted and could only achieve her goal through such roundabout means. As far as I know, countries around the world have established similar organizations to monitor superhumans. For example, there is a Supernatural Countermeasures Bureau in Tokyo."

Hasegawa Izumi saw through her thoughts.

"That is not bad……"

Miko Iino managed to utter these words.

After this incident, how could she not understand that the psychic was able to be above the law and bypass the rules set by the authorities? This showed that the status of the extraordinary was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

If one is powerful enough, one can probably even break the rules set by the authorities.

The more you know, the more pain you will experience.

This cruel truth made the girl feel a tightness in her chest, and she couldn't help but clutch her clothes.

"Stop talking about this."

Seeing this, Izumi Hasegawa changed the subject.

"Since you've come to me, it means this matter isn't over yet. That psychic has targeted you again, hasn't he?"

"Senior, you are truly a prophet..."

Iino Miko first offered a compliment, then her expression turned sorrowful as she continued.

"A few days after that day, the nightmare that Dad had experienced returned, even more intensely. Every day, we could hear panicked screams coming from Dad's room... And Mom, in order to help Dad, had no choice but to inquire about information and went to a certain countryside to find that psychic old woman... But even if she found that 'spirit mother,' the result would be the same, right?"

"Judging from your description, that old woman was quite old. For a psychic of that age, the chance of unleashing their potential and greatly increasing their power to turn the tables in a short period of time is less than 1%, unless they use some evil methods or pay a great price to deplete their own life force... After all, judging from the outcome, the psychic who intended to harm you was not a particularly formidable character."

He offered his opinions and criticisms.
