Chapter 55: Magical Girls (and Boys) Don't Take Ordinary Paths
"Ah, is that so?" Kiritani Fireweave finally showed a genuine smile for the first time tonight, it seems like the knot in her heart has loosened up a bit. From now on, as long as she goes back to meet that sinister bishop and gets brainwashed for a while, she should be able to fully recover, right? Steer still had a poker face and didn't say anything, but the emotions between his eyebrows and hairline also relaxed a bit.
"Alright, alright, this isn't the time to worry about that. The most important thing is that Integra is fine, and then Mr. Touma successfully completed the heroic rescue scene, it's a good ending, that's enough. Now the priority is; if you guys don't send Touma Kamijou to the hospital soon, maybe tomorrow there will be a funeral that no one will attend~" Kanzaki Kaori waved her hand and pointed at Touma Kamijou who was still collapsed on Integra's body.
"Why don't you go send him off, isn't he your friend?" Still liked to tease and provoke Jiaolong.
"Good grief, with my physical strength being as pathetic as it is, do you think I'd be able to make it to the hospital without becoming a corpse on the way?!" Kamijou Touma pushed up his 'Mousou' glasses perched on the bridge of his nose and acknowledged his lack of physical prowess in a completely normal tone... Uh, isn't admitting defeat in terms of physical strength as a man really unmanly?"
"What you said is quite right." Godou Kusanagi didn't look down on Inti Raymi in terms of physical strength, after all, there were only a handful of people in this world who could surpass the physical strength of this female saint... She agreed with Inti Raymi using an awkward grammar that made people feel strange, and then she nodded and went forward to carry the fainted Kamado Tanji on her shoulder like a strong woman.
Stirring with pride, he cut in, stepped forward and scooped up the little nun in a princess carry, standing shoulder to shoulder with God Splitting Fire. He bid farewell to Jie Travelling Arrow: "Then we'll take our leave first, see you later... no, it's better if we never meet again."
At the beginning of the journey, I rolled my eyes and curled up the corners of my mouth. As a house, how could I still be willing to be with you, this carbon-based, three-dimensional, upright, omnivorous animal? Let's just consider this scene as the zookeeper (Kamado Tanjiro) taking his trained gorilla (Steer) and bowing out.
Finally, I saw off those two people who didn't like to take the usual route and liked to jump over buildings to hurry on their way, disappearing into the dark sky's twinkling lights. I let out a long sigh of relief in my heart, these troublemakers, annoying monsters have finally disappeared. Thinking back, from now on there shouldn't be any more special plot twists happening here, right? In other words, my treasured otaku goods are finally safe.
As for the biggest BOSS of that academy city who is both male and female, regarding the sudden appearance in front of Kamijou Touma, having this kind of personality, after consideration, wouldn't think it's too much to ask? After all, from a personality standpoint, being afraid of trouble to this extent; not liking to take the initiative to attack unless disaster strikes right at one's own doorstep, oneself shouldn't be suitable as an important pawn that is always being paid attention to by him/her.
"Anyway, to think that Little Meng's room has become like this... I'm speechless. No wonder they didn't dare go out the main door, this apartment complex is really run down, but at least there are security cameras by the stairs! Why do their instincts only get so sharp at times like these?! Ahh!" Just as Jie Lü Chu Xiang thought of this, he quickly shook off the feeling that had just risen in his heart, a sentiment that was different from his usual habit of being a 'magical girl (boy)'.
No way, I also need to fabricate an alibi or else Little Meng teacher will misunderstand me and think I did something... lecturing hell, bursting into an unmarried woman's room... stop it, stop it! Jie Lü Chū Yì's face turned pale as he shook his head vigorously to stop himself from thinking further. He had only just started thinking about the two unfortunate consequences, but already felt like giving up on this world. If he continued thinking, who knows, he might even tie himself to a rocket launcher and escape Earth.
For a certain someone, who often disregards his living expenses and impulsively buys figurines and merchandise online the moment he lays eyes on them, in a situation where he doesn't go against his true nature, his actions always appear before his rational thinking in the three-dimensional world. And so, when he finally came to his senses and remembered that he didn't have the key to Miss Moe's room, and could completely shift the blame onto Kamijou Touma's shoulders, his body had already appeared in a small park far away from that old apartment building...
"How did I not know that I also had such a brutal ability? Is it because I watched 'Journey to the West' too many times?" Ji Luoyi muttered to himself, this is unscientific, just now during the "Satellite Strike Event" he was still sore all over and didn't even want to move.
After some thought, the traveler finally gave himself a reason: people are forced to do things (in all sorts of ways, don't think about it in a weird way), and so he didn't think about it anymore. He shook his head and went to the hospital where Dr. Frog was, thinking that since the money left in his wallet was destined to be handed over to the hospital anyway, why not stay there for another night? Although the 3D nurse was quite pitiful, at least she had some thoughts, right? At least if he stayed in the hospital, Teacher Moe wouldn't be cruel enough to come and interrogate her about what was going on in her room... but then again, only those abnormal humans from LV5 would make a big deal out of this kind of thing.
"Wow wow! Look what I see? A street urchin who dares to be out causing trouble in the middle of the night..."
A sly voice interrupted Jiaolong Yuchu's reverie, saying something that made him almost nod in agreement and say "deeply resonates with me". How unexpected! Just as he was worried about having to work overtime tomorrow and deal with the aftermath of being single, now gold coins and experience points are delivered right to his doorstep. As the ancients said, misfortune can indeed be a blessing in disguise, hahaha!
"Huh? Huh? Huh? Why aren't you talking, are you scared stiff like a little lamb caught by a wolf? Look at this pitiful state! Don't worry, big brother will protect you, of course, the protection fee is necessary, right? 100,000 yuan is enough, it's cheap, isn't it?" A hoodlum with a messy airplane haircut stuck his face in front of Jie Travels' face, raising an eyebrow and winking, his yellowed teeth constantly spewing out sarcastic remarks.
Facing this kind of person, Kai Ryusaki expressed his preference for answering questions with actions. He started by delivering a "Sakura-gashira" headbutt that sent the delinquent's nose flying back, spewing out a long stream of blood as he fell backwards. Next, taking advantage of the temporary daze caused by the brain shock, Kai lifted his right knee and pressed it against the delinquent's thigh muscles, making him stumble from one daze into another due to the neural reflexes. Finally, Kai pressed his thumb on the nail of his index finger, causing his fist to bulge out, and delivered a straight punch to the delinquent's stomach, sending him crashing to the ground where he vomited uncontrollably.
