"It can't be helped. Their main job is to get into school, and academic achievement is the most important thing for getting into school. They have no choice but to do this to maintain their reputation. For example, you can't criticize an appraiser for only knowing how to identify fake antiques while ignoring their cultural value. That's not their job scope."
Yukinoshita shook her head gently, and she seemed a little helpless in the face of Chaoyang's metaphor.
"You're mistaking concepts. The purpose of school education should be all-round development, not simply a competition for grades. Treasure appraisers focus on authenticity, while we should focus on the connotation of knowledge and the individual's comprehensive ability."
Yukinoshita sighed slightly, as if she was disdainful of what Chaoyang said.
"If you take things like the empty promises politicians write during elections seriously, then I have nothing to say."
Chaoyang ended the topic. He understood that what Yukinoshita said was certainly correct, but correctness did not necessarily conform to reality.
The two were already used to Chaoyang bringing up the topic, and Yukinoshita expressing her valid point. After Chaoyang had delivered his point, he'd shut up and stop arguing. In essence, the Great Teacher's choices were similar.
But unlike the Great Teacher, he is not afraid of Yukinoshita. After all, he is better than the Great Teacher because he knows all of Yukinoshita's weaknesses. It's just unnecessary. The difference in opinion between the two sides is just a difference in values.
Although Yukinoshita likes to correct other people's values, Chaoyang doesn't like it.
……
The three of them returned home.
"Ah~ I'm finally home... Hmm? The door's locked. I wonder if Sandwich-chan is off playing Shotgun again... Wait a minute, let me look for my keys. ... Uh, I forgot my keys."
Chaoyang first turned the door handle and found that it was locked. He immediately looked for the key in his bag and realized that he had forgotten it.
"It really fits your character of being forgetful."
Yukinoshita gently patted Chaoyang's arm to signal him to move aside, and took out the spare key that Chaoyang had given her before.
The door lock opened with a "click".
"go in."
Yukinoshita slowly opened the door.
A white light flashed before her eyes, and time suddenly seemed to stop in Yukinoshita's perspective, as if the space was split into a huge crack by the white light.
But Yukinoshita was caught off guard and didn't even have time to scream in fear.
The tip of a giant sword was only a few millimeters away from her neck, and she felt a slight chill on her neck from the sword energy.
"boom."
The giant sword chopped into the door frame, leaving a crack more than one meter long.
"Fuck, what the hell is this."
Chaoyang, who was closest, reacted instantly and pulled Yukinoshita back with all his strength. The sword finally failed to cut off Yukinoshita's neck, leaving only a few strands of hair. Chaoyang's subconscious action saved Yukinoshita's life.
"Hey, your reaction time is pretty good for a human, but it's still too slow."
At the same time as the owner of the giant sword uttered the mocking words, the giant sword had been drawn out and chopped down again.
The target was still lying unlucky under the snow on the ground.
Chaoyang had already moved in front of Yukinoshita and without hesitation, he quickly stretched out his palms to clamp the sword blade.
At the same time, he saw clearly the person who swung the sword.
"Aren't you Aura?!"
Chaoyang recognized the arrogant brat in front of him at first glance. He had pink hair, several braids, a pair of horns on his head, and a proud tone. He was Aula, who had died just a few weeks ago. Even the whip on his chest still had traces of blood and damage.
"Ah~ I never thought my fame would even reach this strange world... It seems you don't have any magical powers. In that case, you will be honored to become the first group of subordinates of Guillotine Aura..."
"boom!"
When she was halfway through her words, Chaoyang maintained his upper body in the state of grabbing the sword with bare hands, and his lower body directly attacked like a dragon swinging its tail, smashing her into the wall with all his strength without reservation.
“Puff!”
Aula spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn it, cricket human, I will tear you into pieces!"
As she prepared to lift the scales with difficulty and cast the obedience spell, she sensed that the person before her had no magical power and was completely unable to resist her magic.
With a "bang", Aura's head was hit hard by Chaoyang's fist, and it seemed that one could hear the sound of the skull breaking. If Chaoyang didn't know what kind of person she was, he would never be able to do anything to such a cute character, except for Sandwich Sauce, of course.
"You...you human!" Aura glared at Chaoyang, unwilling and angry.
"Just a few seconds! I can take care of this human, and then I'll have to seek revenge on that elf! Damn it!"
When Aura struggled to continue using obedience magic.
Chaoyang didn't give her any chance to breathe and continued kicking her in the abdomen. She fell heavily to the ground under the recoil and groaned in pain.
Chaoyang took the giant sword and cut off her hands.
Without further ado, Chaoyang already knew that this was probably the result of Aura's travel through time and influence on him.
[…I'm surprisingly accustomed to real combat. Is this really the result of Aura's time travel?… Let's finish her off in one fell swoop. She's a real nuisance in real life. Just live in meme-style.]
"Hasn't anyone told you! Don't fight the protagonist of a funny comic book?"
After saying this, Chaoyang hesitated for a few seconds, and finally aimed at Aura's neck and was about to swing the giant sword.
"Wait, wait, don't kill her!"
52. Although Aula has a hundred plans, he cannot defeat my thousand bones!
Yukinoshita, who had just realized that she had been to the gates of hell, gasped with lingering fear. At the same time, she saw Chaoyang in front of her was about to kill the new character.
He subconsciously reached out to stop Chaoyang from killing Aula.
"Su Jun, stop it!"
Chaoyang's huge sword suddenly stopped, and the blade was almost touching her neck.
"Woo~Brother~~"
Aura's expression was extremely sad and even a few tears of regret flowed from the corners of her eyes. She closed her eyes and called out to her brother.
"elder brother?"
Chaoyang repeated the words Aura had just said, tilted his head to look at her, and waited for her to start performing.
"The way you hold the sword... is exactly the same as my brother who died on the battlefield... The reason I want to attack humans is because you have taken away my beloved Onisan!"
A flash of painful memories flashed through Aura's eyes, and her voice was filled with anger and sadness. Her expression gradually became distorted, obviously recalling the painful past.
"..."
Chaoyang didn't say anything but just maintained his current posture, one hand on her back and the other holding a sword, ready to end her life at any time.
Yukinoshita had calmed down by now, and she was quietly observing Aura's performance.
Aura slowly opened her eyes, tears still streaming down her cheeks.
"I lived with my brother until one day, a war broke out... My brother went to fight, but he never came back. Then my parents were killed by humans... Humans, humans, give me back my family!"
Her voice was filled with artificial pain and resentment.
Chaoyang certainly knew that the demons in the buried Fulilian all lived individually and had no concept of family at all. The only purpose of being able to speak human language was to better deceive humans to hunt them, and to save their lives in case of emergencies.
Chaoyang, who was curious whether Yukinoshita would be deceived, kept silent and waited to see what would happen.
"...When you swung your sword at me just now, just as I was on the verge of death, I felt something strange, as if time had been stretched infinitely. Thanks to that, I noticed the smile on your face. It wasn't an expression of anger or mourning for your family, but rather a playful smile, as if you had seen a maggot."
Although Yukinoshita lost her composure for a moment, when facing the ruthless character in the fantasy work, she returned to her original ice beauty state as long as she made sure that the other party could not pose a physical threat to her.
She continued
"Your performance may be vivid, but it still cannot conceal your true intentions. I don't know where you come from, nor do I know why you attack. But I know clearly that your stories are all false."
Yukinoshita's voice was calm and firm, and her eyes revealed unquestionable insight.
"Su Jun, you seem to know her very well. You should have called her name just now, right? Please introduce her."
"Okay... this one might look cute and be wearing rather risqué clothing. But she's a demon in her own world, a ruthless killer... perhaps you could interpret her as a devil like Sandwich. But there's a fundamental difference. They're instinctively tormenting and hunting humans. Incidentally, they don't live in families, so everything she just said was a lie. As for her, her name is Aura, one of the Demon Lord's officers. But she was just killed by the elf Furlin, and her cleverness backfired. She uses a power called obedience magic, which allows her to place her soul against the soul of the other person on a scale, and the one with less magic power will become a slave forever. Yukinoshita threw the scale away just in case."
Yukinoshita frowned and took out the scales from Aura's severed hands, then threw them with all her might from the second-floor corridor across the street.
"..."
After hearing that the two humans had completely seen through him, Aura could only bury his face in the ground and grit his teeth.
"Yukinoshita, take that fainted Pochi-chan back into the house. Since we're not going to kill her yet, it's too conspicuous for several of us to be crowded here... Let's go inside first."
"Ah."
Yukinoshita nodded.
He turned and walked towards Pochi, who had fainted in the aisle.
"Ms. Goto, wake up."
Yukinoshita called softly, gently shaking Pochi's shoulders in an attempt to wake her up.
Pochi slowly opened her eyes, a look of confusion and fear on her face. She caught sight of Aura and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Come inside first. Everything is fine now."
However, Yukinoshita's hands were actually still shaking. Pochi, who was being supported and still trembling, also noticed it and also held Yukinoshita's hand to try to give a little warmth. After a slight surprise, Yukinoshita showed a gentle smile and slowly walked into the house with Pochi.
Aula, who had been pressed to the ground by Chaoyang, suddenly changed her tone when she saw the two girls disappear.
"Hey...are you a hero from this world? You're so strong! Are those two your women? Absolutely not! They're just brats, not worthy of a strong man like you. How about letting me be your woman? Master, you were touching my back just now. Okay, let me go. This body is all yours, you can do whatever you want with it, okay? And I've lived for hundreds of years, so I know all the techniques."
After saying this, Aura stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
"Uh, you misunderstood. I was just thinking that with such a good back, it would be a shame not to use cupping."
Chaoyang remained unmoved.
[You are not as cute as Pochi! You are not as tempting as Yukinoshita's black stockings! ]
Aura: "..."
53. Demons are not demons!
"Ah~ I lost again!!! I've lost all my money for groceries! Damn that Medusa! She wasn't here when I needed her the most. What should I do? I'm sure she'll be killed if I go back like this."
Sandwich, who had just finished playing pinball with empty hands, stared blankly at the night sky, with his wallet hanging lightly on his chest, scratching his head near the station.
"... Never mind. I still have some frozen meat in the fridge. I'll just dig up some wild vegetables in the woods near my house and make hot pot tonight, haha."
It only took the heartless Sandwich Sauce three seconds to come up with a solution.
"La la la~~"
In this way, Sandwich Sauce walked towards home while humming a little tune.
Sandwich was searching for wild vegetables in the woods across from the dilapidated apartment building. She moved briskly between the trees, bending down from time to time to check the ground.
"Um?"
In a bush, Sandwich suddenly found an unusual object.
It was an exquisitely designed balance scale that looked ancient and mysterious, in stark contrast to the natural surroundings.
There is a metal plate hanging at each end of the scale, emitting a faint light.
"Wow, this looks so special! I really am blessed by God."
Sandwich Sauce picked up the scale with a sly grin and examined it carefully. Her eyes sparkled with curiosity and excitement.
"Maybe it can be sold for a good price!"
She grinned and casually put the scale into the plastic bag containing wild vegetables.
……
"Behave yourself. If you don't want to lose your head again, then be good."
[Tsk, this human seems to know about my defeat by that spirit, Frelian. Damn Frelian, she's hidden her magic. I didn't realize she's lived for a thousand years... I should rely on the undead army to constantly consume her. But she doesn't know that I've been resurrected, though I don't know where. Since this area is full of humans, I can quickly create an undead army.]
Aura, who was making plans in her mind, began to sweetly seduce Chaoyang.
