I, Den-O, the Contract Urban Legend

Although she also wanted to go home and see Inoue Ueya immediately, as a girl older than Mary, she couldn't set a bad example in front of her...

"Mary-chan, try harder! I have a feeling we're almost there. Let's defeat it quickly, and then we can use our teleportation ability to go back!"

"Hmm, could that demon god have moved? We've already walked almost every street nearby. If we still can't find it..."

The Squid Demon God does not have the ability to reduce its presence like Mary and Kato Megumi. Once it appears, it may be immediately discovered by the police who have increased patrols nearby due to rumors, and theoretically there will be a lot of noise.

Jingle Bell--

Suddenly Mary's cell phone rang, and the screen showed that it was a call from Kato Megumi.

"This is Xiaohui calling. Does that mean they've found the Demon God?"

As Mary expected, Kato Megumi has encountered the Squid Demon God.

The slit-mouthed woman was fighting with it, and she took this opportunity to walk aside, take out her cell phone, and ask for help from Yashaku Yuki.

[Hello? Xiaohui, have you found anything over there?]

[Can you hear me, Mary? We've found the Demon God here, and he's surprisingly powerful. Come and support him quickly.]

[Okay, I got it. I'll be there soon!]

Although the Slit-mouthed Woman could barely fight the Squid Demon God for a while with her strength alone, but...

Kato Megumi looked at the pistol in the hand of the Demon God and couldn't help frowning.

The Slit-mouthed Woman in urban legend has a very high movement speed, but as a contractor of the Slit-mouthed Woman, Kato Megumi knows clearly that this speed can only be exerted when running.

If it was a close combat like the one we're in now, would Slit-Mouthed Woman's speed really allow her to dodge bullets?

Chapter 114 I'll Watch You

"Hmm, the smell of Zeronos..."

Looking at the two girls in front of him, the Squid Demon God was a little surprised.

It just slightly attacked passers-by to make them remember the appearance of the contractor, so that the contractor could obtain the energy called "fear". It obviously did not cause destruction like other alien demons, so why was it found by Zeronos?

This unscientific!

"Why have these incredible things been happening lately? First, a large number of my kind were wiped out for unknown reasons, and then I, who managed to survive, actually encountered Zeronos..."

Thinking of what had happened recently, the Squid Demon God couldn't help but sigh.

After hearing the Demon God muttering to himself, Kato Megumi frowned.

Under normal circumstances, the Demon Gods were not affected by time, let alone being erased from existence. Unless there was a distortion of space and time, or a drastic change in the timeline, otherwise—

Wait, timeline?

Could it be related to the witch that my future self mentioned?

If this is true, then does the reason why the Demon God appears in this world have anything to do with the evil book that can destroy the world?

If this is really the case, then we know why the Demon Gods did not travel through time and space, because their target is now or is about to approach -

"Xiaohui, don't be distracted!" shouted the slit-mouthed woman.

The bird thief demon god raised his pistol and pulled the trigger towards Kato Megumi.

when!

The slit-mouthed woman stood in front of Kato Megumi and barely took out a pair of scissors at the last moment to block the oncoming bullet. Kato Megumi, who was standing aside, subconsciously took out the transformation card.

The attack failed, and seeing Kato Megumi preparing to transform and join the battle, the Squid Demon God thought something was wrong, and before she could transform, he jumped towards a nearby building.

"Haha, even though I can't beat Zeronos, I can still escape!"

Unlike the original work, there is no need for the Squid Demon God to fight with Zeronos. He only signed a contract with Yu Zhang to obtain the physical body. Moreover, even if he fights with the transformed Zeronos, it is very likely that both sides will suffer losses, so there is no need to provoke the other party.

Suddenly, there was a flash of purple light, and Mary and Yashaku Yuki finally arrived at the scene. Kato Megumi's hand holding the card also stopped.

"Yoshi! Is the target that weirdo standing on the building? How dare you interrupt the time I spend with my husband..."

"Can you see from such a distance?" Kato Megumi looked surprised.

There was no answer. Yashayuki's figure flashed and instantly appeared behind the squid demon. He clenched his left hand into a fist and suddenly punched it with a straight punch.

He used all his strength as soon as he attacked, and the astonishingly powerful golden spiritual energy gushed out from Yashayuki's fist. Although the move was simple, the speed was as fast as lightning. Even the squid demon god could not successfully dodge it and was pierced through the chest in an instant.

"Oh, damn..."

The alien demon god, whose chest was pierced, groaned, and sand kept falling out of the wound. Knowing that it was no match for the woman in front of it, it had to turn around and run away again.

Yashaku Yukichi didn't chase after him, but instead silently watched his back and whispered, "Mu Dada, you're already dead!"

As if in line with Yasha Yuki's words, golden light flickered in the wound of the Demon God. After losing her control, Yasha Yuki's spiritual power regained its violent characteristics, gradually spreading in the Demon God's body, and then bursting out.

The Squid Demon God didn't even notice anything unusual and continued to flee in another direction, but golden cracks gradually appeared on his body...

"Nani?"

Boom!

Kato Megumi looked at the top of the building where the explosion occurred and couldn't help but hold her forehead and shake her head.

"Really, the noise was really too loud."

Although Yashakuyuki's strength was more than enough to deal with ordinary demon gods, she seemed to have trouble controlling her own power, and almost every time she did, it would cause a huge explosion. This was the fifth time since Inoue Ueya was injured...

"Has Sachiko already dealt with the enemy? Then we'll go home today. Goodbye!"

Mary waved goodbye and prepared to go home with Yashayuki to see Inoue Ueya who had been discharged from the hospital.

In fact, Kato Megumi had originally planned to visit the Inoue family in person today, but after hearing about Inoue Ueya from her future self, she didn't know how to face him. Her mentality had not yet adjusted, so in order to avoid any embarrassing situations, she finally gave up this plan.

and……

Kato Megumi looked at the slit-mouthed woman who was standing beside her without saying a word.

Immediately, Kato Megumi nodded and responded, "Well, be careful on your way, and say hello to Inoue-san for me..."

……

After saying goodbye to Mari and Yashakuyuki, Kato Megumi and Slit-mouthed Woman also returned to Zero Liner.

Unlike the Inoue family, in order to prevent Kato Megumi's family from being scared by her, the slit-mouthed woman has been living in this time train dedicated to Zeronos.

Kato Megumi would come to accompany the slit-mouthed woman from time to time under the pretext of "staying at a friend's house". One reason was to make it convenient for hunting the alien demon gods, and the other reason was that she wanted to accompany this older sister with whom she had made a contract.

In fact, the slit-mouthed woman is not as scary as in urban legends. She is more like an introverted older sister, and is unexpectedly afraid of loneliness.

"Woo woo, Xiaohui, be gentler..."

"Well, even if you say so, disinfecting the wound will still hurt, right?"

Kato Megumi is helping the slit-mouthed woman treat her wounds.

In the battle with the Demon God just now, the Slit-mouthed Woman was injured in order to protect Kato Megumi.

After a long silence, Kato Megumi sighed and said softly: "Sorry, this is my mistake. If I had transformed directly..."

With the disappearance of Kato Megumi in the future, this situation also means that Zeronos's transformation cards can no longer be replenished from the future. Although the transformation cards in her hand did not disappear with the changes in the timeline, there are not many left, so she has to use them sparingly.

Fortunately, the Slit-mouthed Woman was not erased due to the change in the timeline. It’s just that since the disappearance of future Kato Megumi, she seemed a little strange and became particularly desperate when fighting.

"No, didn't we agree before? 'Unless it's an emergency, never use the Transformation Card,' so Xiaohui, you don't need to apologize, okay?"

The slit-mouthed woman's face looked particularly pale, apparently because of the injury.

"... Got it. Don't move around. Just lie down on the chair and rest. I'll watch over you."

No matter what, since the day Kato Megumi took over the transformation belt, Slit-mouthed Woman has been staying by her side. She doesn't want to keep watching Slit-mouthed Woman get hurt in order to help her.

Chapter 115: Why don't I wear it back?

"Haha, don't worry. I'm a strange being after all. It's not that easy for me to die. I can fully recover as long as I have a good rest for a while—"

For the slit-mouthed woman, Kato Megumi is her most important friend, both in the future and now.

Even though history has been changed, Kato Megumi in front of her has no memory of that future, but Slit-mouthed Woman thinks this is not a bad thing.

It would be better to say that the current situation is better than before, as Kato Megumi, who is unable to transform, can live a little easier.

The slit-mouthed woman has never had much confidence in herself. In terms of combat, she can barely use her power as an urban legend to protect Kato Megumi. Even in cooking, which she is good at, her level is only average.

Humans are very fragile. Unlike monsters that can recover on their own after being seriously injured, the only thing the Slit-Mouthed Woman can do is fight for her life in an emergency, just like this time.

"No! This kind of thing must not be taken lightly. Because you are a freak, human treatment methods may not be able to help you. If there is any problem with your injury, I can only ask Inoue and the others for help..."

Looking at Kato Megumi's serious expression, the slit-mouthed woman knew that the girl in front of her was the girl she was familiar with after all.

Feeling Kato Megumi's concern, the woman with the slit mouth felt warm in her heart and a faint smile appeared on her face, although this scene might be a little scary in the eyes of passers-by.

Although she was a little scared of this famous urban legend when she first met the slit-mouthed woman, after getting along for a long time, Kato Megumi finally got used to it.

No matter how terrible the scars on her face were, the slit-mouthed woman was just a reckless older sister, and Kato Megumi was no longer surprised by her expression.

"It's decided! Just have a good rest. I'll make dinner. I'm staying here tonight!"

"Hey, but the food you cook is so bad, Xiaohui..."

……

On the other hand, Yashayuki and Mari finally returned home.

"I'm telling you, are you hiding something from Mr. Inoue?"

Inoue Ueya looked at the two people who had just returned with a suspicious look on his face, as if he noticed something was wrong.

"N-No! Sachiko and I were just out for some exercise!"

Before Yashayuki could speak, Mary shook her head and directly denied Inoue Ueya's question.

"Uh, yes, we went out for exercise..."

Yashayuki thought about it for a moment, then nodded, agreeing with Mary's statement. Their battle with the alien demon god should also be considered as "training", right?

Although the opponent's strength doesn't seem as strong as imagined.

The look of doubt on Inoue Ueya's face grew deeper and deeper.

Something is wrong. Mary would actually take the initiative to exercise with Yashayuki?

If it weren't for my own reasons last time, according to Mary's personality, she probably wouldn't even go out.

Besides, they went out in the morning, which was a bit strange. As a foodie, Yashayuki would never miss Miss Sadako's cooking, so she usually had lunch first and then waited for Inoue Ueya to come home before going out for exercise together.

And at lunch today, Inoue Ue also discovered that Sadako only made three dishes, as if she knew that Yashaku Yuki and the others would not be back at that time...

Another point is that Hachisha Yuki's exercise method makes people sweat a lot. If they had just finished exercising, they should have gone into the bathroom to take a shower as usual.

Interesting, what are they hiding?

Inoue Ueya subconsciously frowned, realizing that things were not simple. He pushed the toy glasses on his nose for the first time in a long time, and then a white light flashed through the lenses of the glasses.

Miss Sadako, who was sitting nearby, noticed the glasses on Inoue Ueya's face and couldn't help but complain: "Hey, hey, you're obviously at home, why are you wearing these glasses again?"

"Hey, am I still wearing glasses? I didn't notice this until now..." Inoue Ueya touched the glasses on his face, and his expression became a little surprised.

Sadako originally suggested that Inoue Ueya wear glasses when he went out in order to change his temperament, allowing him to live a more low-key campus life, and at the same time prevent him from attracting any vixens at school.

only……

Unexpectedly, the vixen still came to the door from outside the school, and Inoue Ue seemed to have unknowingly gotten used to the feeling of wearing glasses.

Sadako puffed up her cheeks, walked up to Inoue Ueya, stood on tiptoe and took off his glasses.

"They're confiscated for now. Zhiye, you're not allowed to wear glasses at home!"

Inoue Ueya scratched his head, looking helpless.

When Sadako suddenly said this, Inoue Ue felt inexplicably uncomfortable, just like noticing his own breathing rate.

After a moment, his expression suddenly became a little strange, and he asked hesitantly, "I don't know why, but after my glasses were suddenly taken off, I always feel something is strange. How about I put them back on?"
