<h4>Chapter 583: Are you usually fighting for the sake of justice?</h4>
Trantor: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu
Cultivation required points, the random draw required points, and the [Spirit House] he wanted also required points… Even though he obtained arge number of points from the poprity of "Brother Monogatari", he still didn''t have enough points.
Although he really wanted to see what the [Spirit House] was like, he decided to leave this huge gold sink alone for the time being.
Seiji closed his system''s menu as he thought about this.
Seiji went to the living room and saw that Kazuko and Natsuya were sitting there and quietly sipping tea together.
"You''ve finished discussing things with Kazufuru?" Seiji inquired.
"Yeah. He''s epted my presence, but he doesn''t want to forever remain like this. He wants to separate from me," Kazuko told him.
"Is there a way to separate the two of you?"
"I don''t know. Theoretically speaking, there needs to first be an appropriate new body as a vessel, and then someone needs to split my soul from his to transfer one of us to the new body. This should be quite difficult, don''t you think?"
Seiji looked towards Natsuya.
"It''s not merely difficult, it''s basically impossible," Natsuya stated. "At least, it''s impossible from what I know. I don''t know of anyone who''s capable of splitting souls like this. Separating a single soul into two independent existences? This is no different from splitting a living person into two living persons. It''s ridiculous."
"It''s possible to split an earthworm into two living earthworms," Seiji mused.
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
"I apologize, that was a terrible joke." Seiji sincerely apologized.
"It''s alright. Besides, it''s Kazufuru that wants to separate, not me," Kazuko spoke calmly. "I feel that living like this is fine, but he can''t ept the situation."
Something shed in Seiji''s eyes.
If he loaded back to yesterday and prevented Kazufuru''s kidnapping, he could probably prevent this from happening to Kazufuru.
But, would it really be alright to "delete" Kazuko from the world?
Preventing her birth was different from killing her. However…
Kazuko was the true individual responsible for saving Kazufuru, and she currently existed right here and now! Although her origin was quite mysterious, she seemed like a nice girl. Kazufuru himself had epted her as well. The part that he couldn''t ept was that he and Kazuko now shared a single body.
"Perhaps that kidnapper''s faction has a method to separate the two of you." Seiji folded his arms. "Although that man is dead now, it''s quite likely that he belonged to a faction. Maybe we can find something out if we investigate this faction."
"That sounds reasonable, but how are we supposed to investigate?"
"That man is dead now… he''s gone missing, so the faction he belongs to will surely send someone to investigate. You can catch their members when theye looking for Ooike-san…"
"So, you''re saying to catch anyone thates for an interrogation?" Kazuko blinked.
"That''s exactly what I mean… although the prerequisite is that theye."
Everyone fell silent once again.
"I suppose that''s all we can do." The brown-haired, eyesses-wearing Kazuko raised her teacup and sipped on some tea. "If someonees to try and kidnap Kazufuru again, I''ll capture the kidnapper rather than killing him and interrogate him for relevant information. And if nobodyes, we''ll have to enjoy our life together as it is."
"By the way… Have you decided upon what payment you''d like to receive?" Kazuko smiled and changed the topic after a pause.
"Shika-chan and I already received our reward from cleansing the Domain."
"That doesn''t count. If you don''t say anything, I''ll carry out the default option and show you myself naked, wearing only an apron."
"Why is that the default option!?"
"If you don''t want to see the naked apron, the next option is a swimsuit."
"Swimsuit sounds more normal…"
"It''s a V-shaped spaghetti strap swimsuit."
"Correction! The style is no longer normal!!"
"After the swimsuit option is the bathrobe option."
"That sounds quite normal as well but I refuse to be fooled any more! Also, hurry and seal away the first two options!!"
"Bathrobe (fully soaked wet edition)."
"I knew it wouldn''t be normal!!"
Although Seiji was verbally retorting, he still couldn''t help but imagine such hi scenes. He was simply such a gentleman.
"I truly don''t need such a payment… But, I do have a request for you. I''d like to ask you to open up your Domain in the future so that me and my friends can train there."
"For you and your friends to train there?" Kazuko tilted her head slightly.
"Yeah. Me, Shika-chan, and our other friends."
"What are your other friends like?"
"They''re all members of a team I established. You could say that we''re a Spiritual Ability user fighting team," Seiji exined.
"A Spiritual Ability user fighting team… Are you all usually fighting for the sake of justice?" Kazuko adjusted her eyesses.
"No… We just established our team not long ago, and we''re not that strong. We need to first be stronger."
"I see. That''s why you wanted to make use of my Domain to increase everyone''s strength."
"Yes. This is basically like cultivation." Seiji nodded in affirmation.
"Cultivation… such a hot-blooded word." The brown-haired girl smiled. "Alright, I''ll open up my Domain again just for you. Call me at any time that you need to use it."
"Thank you."
"No need to be so polite with me. Please treat me as an easy girl that you can call on or use at any time."
"I won''t do such a thing at all!"
"What''s with being able to improve one''s strength in her Domain?" Natsuya inquired.
"Kazuko-san''s Domain is actually the Inner World," Seiji exined to the student council president.
"Inner World…" Something shed in Natsuya''s eyes.
"What''s the Inner World?" Kazuko wasn''t familiar with this term.
Seiji then exined the Inner World to Kazuko.
"Spirit Worlds… they sound quite interesting. I''d really like to see one." Kazuko was quite interested in this topic.
"It''s quite dangerous there. There''s not only Spiritual Creatures, there''s also Spiritual Ability users that go there…" Seiji lectured her quite seriously. "Kazuko-san, your Domain power is quite amazing. But, precisely because it''s amazing, others might take interest in you. I believe that it''s best to keep a low profile and not attract attention."
"Yeah, I know not to cause trouble." Kazuko expressed her understanding. "Still, I really do want to check out a Spirit World, along with seeing what an Inner World is like. Perhaps I''ll be able to better understand my own power if I canpare these ces to my Domain."
"Oh, there''s also one more thing about your Domain…"
Seiji exined to her how the demons there might be connected to Hell.
"Hell, the eternal inferno of unending darkness… If those demons are actually from Hell, wouldn''t that make me the ''Guardian of Hell''?" Kazuko''s eyesses shed.
Seiji was rendered speechless.
This sounded like a chuunibyou name for some elite boss from a game like Diablo.
"Does Harano-kun n on going to Spirit Worlds?" Kazuko then asked this question.
"I do."
"Could you take me along with you?"
Seiji considered this question.
Kazuko had great power and was fully capable of protecting herself. Perhaps she would even be of great assistance.
"You''re certain that you want to go?"
"Yes, I want to go." Kazuko was quite adamant.
"Alright, we can go together." Seiji agreed.
"Thank you, Harano-kun. I shall wear fis stockings and trample on you as payment."
"I don''t want that at all!"
"I could let you lick my feet instead."
"I don''t have such a hobby!"
He would prefer to lick ckce stockings… No, wait, what was he thinking!
The brown-haired eyesses girl said goodbye and left after finishing her tea.
"What do you think?" Seiji looked towards Natsuya.
"She''s a powerful and mysterious existence… I don''t know what exactly she is, but it seems that she has no ill intentions towards us. She seems almost like an ordinary girl who simply possesses special powers," Natsuya gave her opinion.
"Actually, I think that she''s rather simr to Yomi," Seiji mentioned.
"Your bonded spirit…"
"Yeah. They''re both powerful yet mysterious existences with unknown origins… I''d really like to hear Yomi''s opinion on this, but as usual, she''s ignoring me." Seiji sighed. "But at the very least, this probably means that Kazuko-san isn''t someone very dangerous."
"Is this why you believe in her?"
"That''s one of the factors."
Seiji finished his tea, and Natsuya refilled his tea for him.
"Are you considering adding Kazuko-san to your Spiritual Ability user team?" Natsuya asked him after refilling his tea.
