My youth story cannot be a knight war

[“A promise? Zaimokuza-san and, uh…”]

【“Tsurumi Rumi.”】

“I’m so sorry!”

[At this moment, Akiyama Mio remembered that she didn't know the name of the cold-faced girl in front of her. She only knew it after she reminded her, and her face turned red with embarrassment.]

[“Um… Tsurumi-senpai! You just said that Zaimokuza-san broke his promise? Did he have any promise with you before?”]

[“…I’m more curious about something else than this.”]

【Click.】

[Tsurumi Rumi did not answer her question. She gently placed the porcelain cup with the tea on the matching porcelain plate, turned her head and looked at the light music club members with a scrutinizing gaze.]

[“I heard from Yihui that you two met when he was working away from home?”]

[“Eh? We are here with Zaimokuza-san and——Oh!? Yes, yes!”]

[Mio Akiyama subconsciously wanted to tell the true story of how she and the others met Zaimokuza, but after seeing Rumi Tsurumi constantly looking at Saki Kawasaki next to her and winking at her, she reacted and hurriedly changed her words.]

【"……Yeah?"】

【Knowing what Zaimokuza's so-called "part-time job" was, Tsurumi Rumi softened her cold tone and looked at them with a slightly softer gaze.】

[“Then the process of your acquaintance must have been thrilling, right? Were you scared?”]

[“I’m also very curious. You know, apart from Officer Kosaka, no girl has ever come here to look for the rabbit. Can you tell me how you met Zaimokuza?”]

[Kawasaki Saki also became interested, holding a coffee cup and bending forward, she patted Akiyama Mio on the shoulder and spoke with interest.]

[“Uh… Mr. Zaimokuza and I are actually——”]

[When she bent down, the front armor on her chest, which was better than all the women present, almost touched Akiyama Mio's face. Feeling the soft pressure coming towards her, Akiyama Mio subconsciously glanced at her chest, and a feeling of frustration surged in her heart.]

[“Let me tell you!”]

[Just as Akiyama Mio was thinking about how to come up with a story, Tianzhong Ritsu, who was sitting next to her, raised his arms with excitement and spit out a rapid-fire sentence from his mouth like a student who was trying to answer the teacher in class.]

[“Speaking of how we met Brother Yoshiteru, it was a very moving story! He always arrived when we, especially Mio, were in danger. Although he took Mio’s first kiss by chance, he was the one we never——”]

【"Ritsu! What the hell are you talking about!!!?"】

[After her friend confessed the thing she didn't want to think about recently in front of two strange women, Akiyama Mio felt what social death was like. Her face instantly turned red. She immediately rushed forward and grabbed her friend's neck. Before she could say the rest of the words, she lifted her up and shook her violently in the horrified eyes of the people around her.]

"Mio! I was wrong! Help!"

[“What the hell are you talking about!? First-first-first-first kiss or something, but it was actually Mr. Zaimokuza who was helping me—”]

[“——Huh? First kiss?”]

[Just as Akiyama Mio was shaking her friend who was foaming at the mouth with tears in her eyes, a calm voice came from behind her again, which made her whole body suddenly cold, and her movements stopped in an instant.]

[“Ahhhh!?”]

【“Wei-chan! Azusa-chan!”】

[Hirasawa Yui and Nakano Azusa immediately reached out and hugged Kotobuki's waist, who was sitting in the middle. The three of them huddled together and trembled continuously.]

[“…It seems that the process of your acquaintance with Yoshiki is a little different from what I expected?”]

[“Can you please talk to me, your senior, in detail? My lovely juniors?”]

[“Ugh!”]

[Taizhong Ritsu, whose eyes rolled back due to being pinched, fell to the ground from the loosened palm. Akiyama Mio's throat moved with difficulty, and she turned her head tremblingly to look behind her.]

[Tsurumi Rumi's expression remained calm, but her entire body exuded an extremely strong dark aura. The almost materialized black aura even affected the real space, causing the light bulb above her head to flicker non-stop.]

[“Well, we actually…”]

[Especially her eyes. When she looked over, Akiyama Mio clearly saw a scarlet light flashing in her eyes, which made her slender legs go weak.]

[Just when she was about to speak out to explain herself with tears in her eyes, a hearty voice came from behind her.]

[“Ms. Saki? The guests suddenly left, and I wanted to ask—huh? Why are you hiding so far away, Ms. Saki?”]

[“Nothing, just to avoid being implicated in the future.”]

[Kawasaki Saki silently retreated to the backstage with a cup of coffee in her hand, and said to Bugs Bunny, who had no idea of ​​the disaster that was about to happen, with a sympathetic look.]

【"?"】

【“Yihui.”】

[Just as Zaimokuza tilted his head in confusion, a voice in front of him made him look down, and he saw Tsurumi Rumi walking up to him with her head lowered.]

["What's wrong? Rumi-chan?"]

[“…Grit your teeth.”]

[“Huh?——Puwaaa!!!”]

【boom--! ! ! 】

[Just when Zaimokuza was wondering, a violent impact erupted from his chin and instantly transmitted to his brain, causing his mind to go blank.]

[Under the horrified gazes of the light music club members and Kawasaki Saki making the sign of the cross in silence, the tall Zaimokuza was hit hard on the chin by the petite Tsurumi Rumi with a rising dragon punch, and in the exploding transparent shock wave, his entire body flew up from the ground with his feet.]

[Zaimokuza was hit and flew through the ceiling of the restaurant above him, and his body drooped and shook weakly. ]

【“…”】

[After throwing this stunning punch, Tsurumi Rumi slowly retracted her fist without saying a word, and in the dull gazes of the people around her, she pushed aside the dangling arms and legs of the Zaimokuza, brushed off the debris that fell on her shoulders, and walked towards the gate with an expressionless face.]

[That delicate figure at this moment could kill any god or Buddha standing in its way, and could be described as invincible.]

【“Why…why?”】

[Indistinct mumblings came from Zaimokuza's head that broke through the ceiling, full of innocence and tears.]

[“Ninety percent of the time, it’s all your fault, zi~”]

【Kawasaki Saki said calmly and took another sip of coffee.】

……

【Tokyo, Taito-ku, Aquarium. 】

[“Is it my turn? It should be my turn this time!?”]

Gooma spoke cautiously to Baruba, who was sitting on a chair in a red dress, while looking at the stone bracelet she was shaking in her hand.

[With every swing of the bracelet, its eyes followed, filled with undisguised greed and desire, as well as humble pleading.]

【“…”】

Baruba looked up at Gooma, who was squatting in front of him, holding out his hands in a pleading manner. This time, he didn't even want to say his usual cold words.

But her next move stunned Gooma, who had already given up hope, and her face instantly turned into one of ecstasy!

[——Baruba gently reaches out and places the bracelet between Gooma’s open hands.]

Looking at the coveted bracelet in his hands, Gooma's entire body trembled slightly, and his usually gloomy and cruel eyes were now almost shedding tears.

[Finally——I finally got the qualification to play the game! ]

[“Hahahaha! It’s finally my turn! It’s my turn!”]

[It laughed wildly, its laughter carrying long-suppressed bloodlust and joy, and immediately put the bracelet on its right wrist.]

[“Then let’s start right away! My game!”]

[“This time, I’m going to kill them to my heart’s content! The target number is—huma ...

[As Gooma stared with clenched teeth, just before it was about to put the bracelet on its right hand, a hand wearing a white lace glove reached out from the side and grasped both of its hands.]

[At this moment, Gooma, who had ascended to heaven, fell into hell in an instant.]

But before it could lose its mind and rage, an intense burning pain, accompanied by rising white smoke and a sizzling sound, erupted from its right wrist, turning Gooma's impending curse into a agonizing wail.

The hand that was holding Gooma suddenly exerted force, tightened its grip on Gooma's hand, and flung it against the wall.

【boom--】

[“Wuwua ...

After hitting the wall and falling to the ground, Gooma continued to scream. This time, tears actually streamed from his eyes, and snot covered his face. With tears and snot streaming down his face, he looked both comical and pitiful.

[Its left hand tightly grasped the part below its right wrist, and the originally pale skin of its right wrist now looked as horrible as if it had been splashed with sulfuric acid.]

[Not only the skin, but also the blood vessels and muscles underneath were corroded and melted, and the pale bones could be seen through the connection between the flesh and blood. The blood that flowed out turned from the original red to a dark and thick color, with a fishy smell accompanied by the white mist.]

[“…Are you ready? Me-Ginoga-De?”]

Baruba didn't even glance at Gooma, who was wailing and crying beside him, ignoring its plight. She raised her head and asked softly to the figure in front of her, who was wearing a white long dress and a lace sunhat.

[“Ah~ I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time.”]

[Grunge, whom she called Ginoga, slowly took off his blood-stained right glove, reached out to grab the bracelet on the ground, and put it on his right hand.]

The moment it opened its mouth, it became clear that Ginoga, despite his slender figure, his clothing style, and his spoken language, were undeniably feminine, yet his voice was remarkably masculine, even with a strong Osaka accent.

Ginoga lifted his sunhat, revealing a face with masculine features, but heavily made up like a middle-aged woman: purple eye makeup, red lipstick, pink diamonds on his ears, and a thin stubble on his chin...

[Obviously, this is a shemale from the Gurongi...if they have the concept of "shemale".]

Even among the Gurongi clan, which is full of eccentricities, Ginoga is definitely the most eccentric. Although all the Gurongi are bloodthirsty and brutal, their human forms are all true men and hot-tempered old men. Even the gloomiest Gooma, once he takes off his always-on black attire, he becomes a muscular man with exposed flesh.

[“Swoosh~”]

Ginoga extended his slender tongue to lick his lips, which were covered with a thick layer of lip gloss. He looked at the bracelet on his raised right hand, his eyes filled with intoxication and joy.

[But if this kind of eyes of a young girl appeared on a transvestite, except for some groups with abnormal sexual orientation, no one with normal aesthetic taste would think this scene is beautiful, only disgusting. ]

[Especially since this guy is not a human being, but a monster in human skin.]

[“My goal is one hundred and forty-four little cuties~”]

[“I can’t wait any longer. I want to use my hot and loving kiss to bring a beautiful death to those poor Lindos~”]

【“——This includes you.”】

["KUUGA～"]

6. A Mind That Hates Fighting (Two-in-One)

"This Gurongi's ability... could it be?"

Everyone who was watching the screen had long been accustomed to the poor bat Gurongi being abused for who knows how many times. Some people could even calmly eat melon seeds while watching the little bat being bullied, and joke with their friends while watching with relish.

After watching the video and the screen for so long, people's understanding of the bullying of its own kind has long become an essential part of the evaluation, just like the hospital story between "Kousuke Kousaka" and "Yoshiki Zaimokuza" after defeating the new enemy. Even if you haven't seen it, you will always feel that the story is lacking soul.

But people's attention is not on Gooma who is wailing against the wall in the light curtain, but on the special abilities displayed by the new enemy named Ginoga.

Seeing Gooma's right wrist corroded to the point where the flesh and bones were visible just after Gooma grabbed it, and the dark and smelly blood flowing on the ground, everyone couldn't help but be horrified by this horrific sight, and immediately recalled the scene that appeared at the end of the previous chapter.

At that time, "Zaimokuza Yoshiki" was also struggling on the operating table in extreme pain like Gooma is now. The blood spitting out of his mouth also changed from bright red to pitch black, accompanied by a pungent fishy smell and white mist.

This scene is so similar that it is impossible not to connect the two.

"Now we can confirm that this light screen is playing the story in reverse order. In other words, the culprit who caused Mr. Zaimokuza to be in so much pain in that scene is probably this guy who did it?"

Togashi Yuuta stared intently at the light screen as Ginoga turned around with a smile on his face. Before leaving, he stepped on Gooma's corroded right hand. Ginoga left with a terrifying scream, his eyes filled with strong hostility.

Although these Gurongi have not appeared in reality now, through videos and light screens, he knows about the series of inhumane killings committed by this horrific race after escaping from the seal of the previous Kuuga. Togashi Yuuta now only has hatred and disgust for these guys in his heart.

Although he believed that he had graduated from chuunibyou, what he said goodbye to was only the shameful self in the past. The boy who loved and admired heroes was still beating in his heart and had never left.

Koukou Ikusei University Affiliated High School, student dormitory.

"The skin and flesh are corroded by aqua regia, and the blood is corroded and turns black and smelly... I can't be wrong. The true form of the Gurongi that appeared this time should be inclined to use toxins."

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka tapped his chin with the pen, thoughtfully analyzing the capabilities of the new enemy.

"With Kuuga's ability to recover, it's hard for an external attack to seriously injure Zaimokuza Yoshiki to that extent, except for his Pegasus form, which is too fragile due to amplified senses. But if it's a toxin like this that has miraculous effects on both the inside and the outside... maybe it could really cause fatal damage."

He flipped over the notebook in his hand, looked at the diagram of Kuuga's body structure he had drawn, and touched the sketch of the spirit stone on his waist with the tip of his pen.

“And that spiritual stone belt called Yamadam may have other secrets that have not been revealed.”

Thinking of the pair of hands that were obviously female that appeared before "Zaimokuza Yoshiki" was about to deliver a fatal blow to No. 23, as well as the words the other party said, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka narrowed his deep eyes, covering up his calm and rational eyes.

"Those hands also appeared at the end of Zaimokuza Yoshiki's dream about Kuuga in the ancient times, and they also warned Zaimokuza not to release the power of the belt again..."
