Chapter 20 Summary of both sides
Forget it, it doesn't matter.

He is unwilling and too lazy to delve deeper. After all, he is just a worker. As long as it does not involve issues of principle, he will handle them with the concept of "muddling along".

"It doesn't matter, I'll be happy if I can help."

Fujimaru Ritsuka showed a reassuring smile, took the [Phantom War Horse's Mane] and brought it back to his hand.

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka's sincere smile, Nanami Kento felt that his decision was not wrong.

Getting back to the topic, what made him most regretful was that although the power of the hand rope severely injured the opponent, he was also surprised by the power of the hand rope at the time and failed to seize the precious opportunity at that moment, allowing the opponent to slip away. .

That was indeed a very dangerous and difficult opponent. If it weren't for the help of this hand rope, the outcome of the next battle would have been unknown.

next time.
Putting away his complicated thoughts, Qianhai Jianren calmed down and said to everyone:

"Then, let's consolidate the information."

The first is his side.

The one he was fighting was an unregistered special-grade curse spirit. His appearance was almost the same as that of a normal human youth, with long blue-gray hair and scar-like marks all over his body.

It can communicate like normal people, and is suspected to be related to the two special-level curse spirits mentioned in Gojo Satoru's previous report that can also communicate normally.

Judging from the other party's self-report and his battle with the other party, the other party's spell should be [touch the soul and change its shape], which affects the body by changing the soul.

This ability can not only change the enemy's soul, but also transform the body by changing one's own soul.

Thinking of the humans who were transformed into monsters that they discovered during the investigation a few days ago, they can basically conclude that the special curse spirit he fought with was the culprit of this attack, or one of the culprits.

"The above is the situation on my side."

Next up is Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others.

After investigation, they confirmed the fact that the suspect Yoshino Junpei was a curse master who had awakened the technique, and successfully arrested him.

But other than that, whether the other party is related to the attack case they are investigating, whether it is related to the special curse spirit that is fighting Nanami Kento, whether there is any conspiracy against the curse world, when the spell will be awakened, etc., these questions Don't know anything.

"Then what is to be done next can be confirmed."

After sorting out the information and progress currently obtained, Nanami Kenren made arrangements for their next actions——

Interrogate the suspect Yoshino Junpei and try to obtain useful information; submit the information about the special curse spirit to your superiors and conduct a search as much as possible.

After making arrangements, Nanami Kento looked at the time on his watch, stood up decisively and said:
"That's the plan, let's disband! It's already serious overtime at this time, and there's no overtime pay."

"Eh?"

"We will also meet in the conference room tomorrow, Ichichi. I'll leave it to you to send them back. Do you get overtime pay, right?"

"Uh, yes."

"No problem, that's it. Goodbye."

"Eh?!"

In the shocked and confused eyes of Kizune Hisato, Nanami Kento quickly made arrangements, then decisively stood up and prepared to leave, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

"So strong, Nana Ming."

Looking at the direction where Nanami Kento left, Fujimaru Tachibana sighed leisurely.

However, I hope that Chaldea’s servants will not learn from it~
"Okay, let's go back then."

Somewhere in the sewers of Tokyo.

After using all his strength to escape all the way, the other party could no longer be seen within the range of perception. The real person lay on the ground with lingering fear and slowly breathed a sigh of relief. "Really, I almost died."

Recalling the fear of death he felt at that moment, the real person couldn't help but tremble all over, and then laughed crazily.

"Ahaha, hahahaha, ahahahahahahahaha.!"

"So this is what death feels like? And what is 'that thing'? That spellcaster is also very interesting. It's really curious. Interesting! Interesting!"

"You seem very happy, Masato, are you having fun?"

At this time, a figure walked out of the shadows. It was a mysterious young man with long hair in a ponytail and a stitch mark on his forehead.

"Summer oil!"

Seeing the person coming, the real person happily called out the person's name and said enthusiastically:

"I'm very happy, and I learned a lot! For example, I discovered that transforming my soul has no side effects at all, and I will be able to try more in the future!"

A man named Xia Youjie asked with a smile:
"However, it seems that you have never beaten the opponent before. Is it difficult?"

"Ah, it's a bit tricky. But the most important thing is that the opponent seems to have something particularly powerful in his hand. I was almost killed!"

"'Something particularly powerful'? Is it some kind of special magic tool?"

"No, it feels different. How should I put it?"

The real person frowned and thought hard, considering how to word his words.

"When I was attacked by that thing, I felt as if it was naturally restraining us, but I couldn't feel its power. It was like being invisible."

"In short, it's very powerful and terrifying."

"It sounds like it's beyond my scope of knowledge."

Xia Youjie held his chin and searched in his mind for items that matched the description of the real person. However, after recalling for a long time, he could not find any useful clues.

"I feel it's necessary to collect some information. By the way, speaking of which, you don't seem to know yet, right? The kid you're interested in has been arrested by the people from the high school."

"Eh?"

The real person was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his face gradually darkened, and a horrifying murderous aura instantly filled the entire area.

"These rubbish guys dare to touch my things!"

"But forget it. It seems like there is no chance of winning if we go looking for trouble now."

The next moment, the smile on his face returned again, as if the previous anger did not exist at all, he shrugged frivolously and said:
"I quite like that kid. He looks like he thinks he has seen through human nature. He is so innocent and so easy to deceive."

"And the training is almost done. It's almost time to harvest, and I've been planning how much despair I should give him. Alas, it's such a pity."

As he spoke, he let out a long sigh, as if he really felt sorry for the other person.

But at this moment, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and the frivolous smile hung on his face again.

But if you look closely, you will find that there is endless malice hidden under that smile.

"Speaking of which, I remember he seemed to have said to me, 'If the victim were my mother, I would hate you to the point of madness,' right?"

"Ah, I'm suddenly looking forward to it."

"I'm really curious, what would a soul with such hatred and madness look like?"
