Chapter 34: Evil Devil
Is it time to eat?
Her eyelashes trembled and she slowly opened her eyes. Due to the backlight, she could only vaguely make out that the person standing in front of her was an old man with neat and white hair and beard, and wearing a white robe that implied holiness.
He stretched out his hand and slowly placed it over her head. The ethereal voice seemed to come not from in front of her but from the distant horizon, like holy music from heaven.
"Kid, you have worked hard."
Miki Inagaki's eyes were suddenly filled with tears, and clear tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes in a few seconds.
She opened her mouth, her chest felt stuffy and her throat seemed to be strangled. The words were stuck and no sound came out.
"The evil spirit is constantly polluting this land where humans depend for survival, and has nurtured a group of vicious minions. The road ahead is difficult. Can you take on the responsibility of eliminating the evil spirit and defending justice?"
".I can."
Inagaki struggled to calm his emotions and spoke in the firmest tone possible.
"Okay." The old man took out a cherry tomato. This was the parasite that Bai Shihang had changed into a different appearance by using his [Alienation] ability.
"After taking the holy tomato, you will officially succeed the Holy Maiden, and the demon fetus in you will be eliminated. At the same time, you must embark on the road of slaying demons that is full of thorns and tests, and fight for a glimmer of hope for all living beings and this land."
Inagaki took the cherry tomato respectfully with both hands and put it into his mouth.
The old man in front of me seemed to turn into smoke, and with a smile, he gradually melted into the light particles of dusk.
Just as Inagaki was about to reach out her hand, she felt a sudden pain in her abdomen. From her perspective, her swollen demon fetus began to struggle and shake violently.
"No, you are not my son, you are a thief. You are a devil, you deserve to die!"
Hatred flashed in Inagaki's eyes, and he slapped himself hard in the abdomen.
One, two, three. Everything was quiet.
She looked at her flattened belly and a complicated smile appeared on her face.
"No, there is still that demon that needs to be purified." Inagaki murmured as he looked at a small piece of sky outside the window.
She slowly stood up, without even putting on her shoes, and walked out of the corridor barefoot.
There is a yard below the hospital, which is a place for patients to bask in the sun and do outdoor exercises, but it is usually closed after the evening, and now it is almost time to close.
"Lady Saint! Why are you here?"
"Greetings, Saint Lady."
The two church members were a little surprised because the saint had never been to the courtyard before.
"I have received divine revelation and am about to set out to destroy the demons. Don't worry, I will be back. Prepare dinner for me." Miki Inagaki said seriously to her two fellow church members.
The nurse who was preparing to take all the patients back to the ward was used to it and cooperated: "Where in the yard are you going to kill the demons, Saint? Be careful, there is an ant nest in the west, it's quite dangerous."
Inagaki shook his head, looked at the sunset in the sky, and walked out with two fellow church members.
The nurse thought about it and decided not to stop her. It was rare for her to come out for a walk, and if she was late, she could just carry her back later.
"I'm leaving, you guys go back first."
Miki Inagaki waved her hand, and then, as the nurse was stunned, she just floated into the air and flew away in a certain direction.
"Farewell to the Saint! Destroy the devil and eliminate evil!" The two believers knelt down and worshiped in cooperation.
The nurse covered her chest with her hands, as if she was having an asthma attack. She looked at the patient kneeling below, then at the figure in the distance on the horizon. All of a sudden, she couldn't tell whether she was the patient or the other person was the patient.
"Wow, the saint flew away."
"Isn't it normal for a saint to be able to fly?"
"Look at this guy. He looks like he has never seen the world. Maybe he escaped from a mental hospital. Let's stay away from him."
Some patients pointed and groaned at the nurses.
Oh no, I'm going crazy!
No! I need to report it immediately!
A patient flew away!
The nurse turned around and ran away in a hurry, not caring about the timed closing time. Coupled with the extraordinary incident that had been making a lot of noise a few days ago, her only thought now was that she was going to resign today! Inagaki Miki manipulated her body unfamiliarly, rising from a height of more than ten meters to hundreds of meters.
The busy urban area, the gradually lighting neon lights, the sea of cars and people, and the flocks of sparrows flying off to who knows where are all within sight.
The strong wind made her shaky a little. It took her some time to gradually master the technique and fly forward against the strong wind.
She lowered her head and memorized the location of the hospital, for she was afraid that she would not be able to find her way back.
"The evil aura flows there."
Inagaki looked at the complex of buildings, and she could sense the existence that made her extremely disgusted.
Without stopping, she flew towards the target with all her strength.
In the evening, the bar begins to welcome people who may have just woken up. For them, a new day begins from now on.
There was feasting and feasting, and people were intoxicated.
"Jinyan, you came so early today. Hahaha. I heard that the girl you messed with last time almost called the police. It was so tragic to see her like that. Tsk tsk."
"She received the money, she just wants more, what a greedy bitch."
Ogura Chikahiko curled his lips, sat down in the booth, listened to the warm-up music, opened a bottle of wine on the table and poured himself a glass.
"I say, why don't you find some women in that circle? Their ability to endure is not comparable to that of ordinary people."
"It's not disgusting to use something that someone else has peed on."
Ogura Chikahiko drank the wine in one gulp and shook his head, "It's more fun to watch those innocent-looking girls. They are at a loss, with innocent eyes like little white rabbits."
The drinking buddies tutted their tongues and said, "I, a pervert, think you're a pervert. I heard you're getting married again? Which ignorant girl did you trick again?"
"Haha." Ogura Jinyan chuckled, "I have been eyeing this target for a long time. Her parents only care about money. As long as I control her parents, she will never dare to initiate a divorce. If I divorce, I won't have a penny of property in my name. Haha, I rely entirely on my family for support."
As we chatted, night fell and the bar became more and more lively.
The dance floor was filled with almost deafening DJ music, and people of all races were gathered together, men and women swaying their youth and showing off their charm.
Ogura Jinhiko strolled around the dance floor, but didn't see any target that caught his eye, so he turned his gaze towards the bar, and unexpectedly found a pretty beauty.
"Beauty, are you coming alone?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to go down and dance for a while?"
The woman glanced at Ogura Chikahiko. He looked good, his clothes were all luxury goods, and the watch on his wrist was something she had seen in a magazine.
She smiled and looked him in the eye: "Okay, but I don't know how to dance. Can you teach me?"
"It's easy. I will teach you step by step." Ogura Jinhiko took her hand and walked to the dance floor.
"Follow the rhythm, sway casually like me, and dance along when you get excited. Wuhu."
Just as the two were getting closer, the music suddenly stopped.
"Ok?"
"Why did you stop?"
“We’re having a blast!”
"DJ, get out here!"
At this time, at the control desk in front of the dance floor, the rebellious DJ looked at the woman in hospital gown beside him submissively: "Beautiful, beautiful girl, I stopped listening to you. Can you let me go?"
Around him, deputies and security guards were lying in scattered positions, wailing quietly.
Inagaki didn't reply to him, nor did he look at him. He raised his foot and stepped barefoot on the expensive DJ mixer, looking down at the "group of demons" below that were gradually becoming chaotic.
Soon, she saw the target she had been dreaming of.
Found you, demon.
