Chapter 31

Miyako Eri and Gojo Satoru faced a gloomy man with long dark hair, while on the other side, a blond young man with vines growing from his blood faced Dazai Osamu.

His slightly childish face still had a hint of innocence of a young man, but when those clear blue eyes looked at Osamu Dazai, they were not purely friendly, but rather filled with unsettling gloom.

"How should I put it... Although I don't know why this child's supernatural power did not work on the white-haired girl, it does not mean that there is a problem with our family's combat staff capabilities."

He smiled and used his bleeding hand He grabbed Yumeno Kusaku who fell on his shoulder, and the vines growing from his blood quickly wrapped around the little boy.

He was really unwilling to give it another try, but this time he learned wisely and did not let the boy's ability only target Dazai Osamu alone, but radiated to all the people behind him.

Whether it is a person with super powers or an ordinary person, any slightest movement will be included in the scope of mental attacks.

"How should I put it... I actually quite hate people who are messing around in this city." The

tall, thin black-haired young man's expression became gloomy, and his pair of iris-colored eyes made him unconscious just by staring at the blond young man. Trembling.

What kind of eyes are those?

The gloom condensed with murderous intent was like a rich filth that could not be dissolved. Just looking at those eyes, the blond young man felt that his soul was about to be frozen.

Before his companions noticed something was wrong with him, Miyako Eri and Gojo Satoru took the initiative to greet him.

"I'll ask you again, can you please leave now?"

The white-haired girl's bright red eyes stared at the purple shadow she could see. She reached out and picked up a stick from the ground. Branches falling to the ground.

"Leave?"

The dark-haired young man repeated Miyako Eri's words, seemingly understanding but not understanding. He slowly repeated Miyako Eri's words several times, and finally showed an expression of sudden realization.

He suddenly tilted his head and scratched his hair, "Ah, it's so itchy... Although I'm not interested in catching people or anything... But I have already promised others..."

"A promise is a promise, although I would rather find a place to have a good time." "I want to sleep on the ground."

He said this and looked at Miyako Eri with a sincere expression, "So I can't agree to your request."

He didn't even want to stop, let alone agree to Miyako Eri's departure from this world. requested.

"Then there is no other way."

Miyako Eri sighed after hearing this, but she was not too surprised or disappointed. "Then I have to ask you to leave voluntarily."

After clasping his hands, Miyako Eri was wearing the lady's skirt. At some point, it turned into a heroic white uniform, and the slender branch that was held in the hand just now turned into a long spear, tightly held in the palm of the hand by slender fingers covered with white gloves.

It was a weapon she borrowed from her former contract partner, and it was also the most suitable weapon she could use so far.

The sharp tip of the spear touched the ground, and the cold light belonging to the weapon was already aimed at the purple shadow in front of him.

Gojo Satoru whistled, "This is the first time I've seen you use this kind of weapon."

"Because this is the most suitable weapon for me so far."

The power of the weapon comes from its own ability. Maybe some legendary bonuses can be added, but in other worlds, it can only be determined by its own materials.

The weapon attached to the branch was one of the weapons she was most familiar with.

The spear in Miyako Eri's hand comes from a comrade who once fought alongside her. It is a symbol of their friendship and a gift she received from that world.

It is perfect to use weapons from another world to expel evil guests from another world.

Gojo Satoru was not in a hurry to take action. He knew what Miyako Eri meant. The dark-haired man opposite did not have a strong sense of hostility, and he did not relax his vigilance.

After all, Haruno Kiroko and Tanizaki Naomi behind them have not yet waited for the supporting members.

He couldn't make a move.

"This world is very noisy..." The man with long dark hair introduced himself to Miyako Eri as if he had remembered something.

"But it's a place where I can sleep peacefully."

"Lovecroft, is my name."

After He came to this world, He even gave himself a human name.

"I'm so glad you like this world."

Miyako Eri's soulless pupils reflected the figure of the other party, with a little relief in her expression.

"In that case, I will no longer hesitate to expel you from this world."

"Because your appearance will only completely pollute this world."

After hearing Miyako Eri's words, the man's originally expressionless expression Suddenly becoming terrifying, his white-less eyes widened, and his arms turned into sticky tentacles like octopuses.

"Don't bother me. After completing this commission, I can sleep peacefully in this city -"

The sharp cold light pierced the sky, cutting off the sticky and bloated tentacles into a ball and falling to the ground.

"I can only apologize. It seems that you can only go home and rest."

The tentacle that was cut off on the ground only squirmed a little, but the tentacle connected to the arm seemed to be unscathed and quickly condensed from the break. New tentacles appeared, squirming and attacking Miyako Eri.

Not surprisingly, he was cut down again.

It's just that these broken contacts seemed to be conscious, constantly condensing and focusing, and in the end, even Lovecroft himself turned into a huge monster that looked like an octopus, but its true identity was unclear.

The real form of the Qixing species from a foreign land made many people feel that their spirits were affected to a certain extent.

Especially the blond young man who was originally his partner.

He turned his head and saw Lovecroft revealing his true form, and couldn't help laughing happily,

"Don't underestimate Lovecroft! This guy is a monster-"

As the young man said The tone of his voice gradually became higher, and the blood flowing out of his body became faster, as if it had a rejection reaction throughout his body.

He laughed loudly as he tied Yumeno Kusaku deeper.

Miyako Eri raised an eyebrow when she heard the meaning of his words. Those people actually knew that Lovecroft was not a pure human being, but maybe they didn't know that this guy was not from this world...

Why? Let's just say...

As expected of an American, he is really brave.

Gojo Satoru stood behind Miyako Eri, but his toes began to tap the ground impatiently, and he became obviously a little irritable.

The eyes behind the sunglasses were so red that they seemed to glow.

"Tsk."

He stared at Miyako Eri's back holding a spear to cut off the tentacles, the corners of his mouth turned down, and veins popped out on the back of his hands.

"Mr. Gojo——"

Fortunately, the person from the Armed Detective Agency arrived before he became impatient.

Tanizaki Junichiro and Nakajima Atsushi finally arrived to support Tanizaki Naomi and Haruno Kiroko.

Although before that, they had to cross the sea of ​​people affected by the mental attack.

"Hey, Atsushi-kun, please bring that ugly thing here."

Osamu Dazai pointed at the rag doll that was caught in the hand of the blond young man and had been making harsh laughter.

Using Junichiro Tanizaki's ability to create illusions, it was possible for Atsushi Nakajima to use his speed to snatch back the medium used to carry out mental attacks before the blond young man noticed.

"That? I understand!"

Although Nakajima Atsushi didn't know why Dazai Osamu asked him to get that weird-looking ugly doll, this was Dazai Osamu's request, and every step Dazai Osamu made must have his deep meaning. So Nakajima Atsushi agreed without hesitation.

Junichiro Tanizaki, who was standing next to him, took the lead in activating his supernatural power without him even needing to say another word, using [Snow] to create an illusion for him, covering the traces of his actions.

"The man-eating tiger kid, and the one next to him is..."

The blond young man did not miss the arrival of Atsushi Nakajima. After all, their first priority was to catch this guy in front of the leader of the group. He was the key.

I just thought of using Haruno Kiroko and Tanizaki Naomi to fish, but I didn't expect that before they could catch the fish, the real owner showed up first.

After seeing Junichiro Tanizaki, he recalled the seemingly weak young man's information in his mind, but before he could think of it completely, he was interrupted by Dazai Osamu who rushed in front of him.

"Hey, you dare to be distracted in front of me. You are really talented and brave."

A dagger appeared from nowhere and scratched the blond young man's cheek. It can only be said that he reacted quickly, otherwise the knife would have been direct. It crossed his neck.

"What?!"

While he was avoiding Dazai Osamu's attack, there was a sudden light on his hand.

The rag doll he was holding just now suddenly disappeared. Before he could find any trace of the rag doll, his scratched cheek was suddenly patted by cold fingers, and the vines that had finally formed were no longer traceable.

"Invalidation of superpowers..."

The members of the group are very aware of Dazai Osamu's famous superpowers. After all, their family's combat consultant wrote a tome on this eccentric and dangerous man. Detailing the opponent's abilities, including analyzing the opponent's character, plus the actions the opponent may take, etc...

Although the plan did mention Dazai Osamu's abilities, after all, the members of the group were hired with huge sums of money. The proud man of heaven did not pay much attention to Dazai Osamu, a sick and weak-minded intellectual who was not very capable in actual combat.

So after he nervously watched the doll in his hand being snatched away by Nakajima Atsushi and Tanizaki Junichiro, his mind went blank for a while, and only then was Dazai Osamu taking advantage of it.

He loosened his grip on Yumeno Kusaku.

So it is not a strange thing to lose both the person and the doll.

"Damn it!"

After losing the opportunity, and Dazai Osamu used his own ability to remove the vines bound to Yumeno Kusaku, the mental attacks against everyone present lost their effect, and he had no way to do it again. Continue to perform the second time.

This part of the battle plan was considered a failure.

Then there is only...

He turned his head and looked at Lovecroft, who was having a lively fight with Miyako Eri.

"Hey, stop playing -"

"Lovecroft, it's business!"

he shouted at the giant octopus monster.

"Playing...sleeping...so sleepy..."

"But... Mr. Fitzgerald...has already promised..."

Even though he has become a monster, he still has human reason and thinking, so He slowed down his movements, and while the other tentacles were attacking, one tentacle touched the fish and scratched the back of his head, which had lost its shape.

"I have no choice but to continue."

The octopus monster with soft limbs stared at Miyako Eri with a pair of eyes that were so weird that they had nothing to do with human eyes. He waved his claws and several tentacles attacked her at high speed. .

"Hey, after bullying our Eri-chan for so long, it's time to settle the score, right?"

Before Miyako Eri had time to move, she shot through the opponent's tentacles.

But that still didn't slow Lovecroft down.

"Hey, you heard what Eri-chan said, that big guy is not what should exist in this world."

After Dazai Osamu solved the spiritual crisis, he had a friendly smile on his face. He deliberately approached the blond young man and gradually developed a naughty relationship with him.

"You people should not be clearly affected by him, right?"

He asked deliberately, and then pointed at Miyako Eri, "Although I don't know if you have investigated clearly, Eri-chan, that child is very You are good at fighting foreign creatures."

"You should have noticed it yourself. The longer you stay with that monster, the worse your spirit becomes."

Osamu Dazai pointed at the opponent's blue pair. His colorful eyes, "It's like there is no hope in the end, you will be assimilated by him in the end."
