Chapter 8 Seventy percent
When the two figures appeared again, they were standing next to each other.
Suddenly, a gust of breeze blew by, and a knife mark with deep bone visible appeared on Black Fire's arm.
"You win." After Kanzaki said these words, a blood hole about three centimeters in diameter suddenly appeared on her back and center, and then Kanzaki slowly fell down.
However, her body did not fall to the ground.
"What do you want to do?" Hong Mao didn't know when he used healing magic, and his limbs had returned to their original positions. When he arrived, he found Kanzaki lying limply in the arms of his enemy, covered in blood.
"If you want her to live, don't come here." Black Fire's cold voice scared Red Hair so much that he took a step back. No one noticed that he had no pupils at this time.
Afterwards, Black Fire used his abilities to treat Kanzaki. After a while, Kanzaki in his arms gradually opened his eyes.
"Why?" Kanzaki, who had just woken up, although his consciousness was still a little blurry, still touched his forehead and asked. After all, the two of them were enemies before, weren't they?
"Because if you die here, I will be in a lot of trouble." Just kidding, a useless red-haired magician can make the Puritan Church and Academy City go to war. If Blackfire accidentally causes the Puritan Church to lose a saint, they will probably
The Pope will go crazy.
"Besides...didn't I say it before? Why didn't you draw the sword with the intention of killing me? How many percent of your strength was that blow just now? Seventy percent?"
"There is nothing I can do... My magic name is 'helping those who cannot be saved', so there is no way I can kill even one person... By the way, how much strength did you use just now?"
That's right, for the "Gift of Death" just now, Black Fire only used less than 70% of its own strength. Because the lethality was too great, Black Fire did not dare to increase it. In addition, this move must be taken.
The opponent's life was at risk, so the weapon could not be controlled at all at that moment, but it automatically slashed towards the vital point. That's why Kanzaki was injured so badly, even though he was only at 70% strength.
"Why...people like you...can't protect that girl at all, right? The same goes for that red-haired one. Even when he used the 'King of Witch Hunters' before, he tried to avoid Indy when he punched
Kesi…what’s the reason behind this? Can you tell me, Kanzaki Huochi?”
"Since I lost to you, it's okay to tell you these things. 'Catalogue of Forbidden Books'... Forget it, this name is too annoying, let's call her 'Index'... We are here this time
, Index must be recovered no matter what. As for the reason..."
It was already noon at this time, and Kamijou Touma had finished school at noon. However, from a long distance away, he saw that there was no one in his house, and even the streets were in pieces.
"Index!" As if he thought of something bad, the boy named Kamijou tried his best to run towards his dormitory under the strange looks of passers-by.
"Index!" Kamijou was running on the road, imagining various scenes in his mind. For example, Index was captured by the tall red-haired priest and suffered all kinds of torture.
; Or, after the previous baptism of fire, his home was torn into pieces by the strong wind... In short, Kamijou did not think about things in a good direction at all. After all, as a man who was abandoned by the god of luck, his name
The boy named Kamijou is very self-aware.
"Huh? No, isn't that guy Shirai still there? That red-haired guy from before looked so powerful, so he was defeated to death by him, wasn't he?" Thank God, Kamijou finally thought of something related to the theme.
However, when Kamijou rushed to the scene of the crime, he saw a very strange sight.
The tall red-haired priest before was smoking helplessly on the sidelines. As a supporting role, I will put it aside for the time being; the important thing is that Black Fire on his side is holding a beautiful black-haired woman in his arms, and the two of them are covered in blood.
It was all blood, and their weapons—wrist blades and command knives—were placed aside.
"Hey? Shirai, have you hooked up with another girl?" Kamijou, this guy, has absolutely no idea of "if you don't seek death, you won't die", which dooms him to a tragic fate.
Kanzaki's face turned red when she heard this. At this time, she also recovered some strength, and quickly jumped out of Black Fire's arms. Black Fire was a little uneasy, please, two of her own family
It's not far away. If you make such a fuss and become jealous, it will collapse again.
"Hey, Kanzaki, let's talk about what you said earlier. In return for saving you, can you beat that guy up for me?"
"Willing to serve."
Then, Kamijou Touma's tragic fate was doomed.
Ten minutes later, Black Fire, Kanzaki, Red Hair and the beaten-up Kamijou returned to Kamijou’s dormitory. Since the battle was outdoors, Kamijou’s home was not damaged, which also made him
I was very happy. At this time, Index was still in a drowsy state, showing no signs of waking up.
"Hey, Hong Mao, your hand is really heavy..."
"I originally wanted to let her sleep until the ceremony was over. In that case..."
"Ritual? What ceremony?" Kamijou-san showed his studious and inquisitive nature at this time, which also made Blackfire on the side shake his head frequently, wondering why his boss asked him to protect this guy.
"Kanzaki, please continue the topic you just talked about... Also, Kamijou, can you please do your duty as a pet owner? Why do you always want me to protect your pet..."
"Then, I'll say it again." After the farce just now, the relationship between the two parties was no longer so tit-for-tat, so Kanzaki brought up the topic again.
"You know... I don't want to do such a thing, but... if I don't do this, that child... will die. The name of the organization I belong to is actually the same as that child, both of which are from the Puritan Church -
—'The Church of Necessary Evil.'" Kamijou was stunned by Kanzaki's few words, after all, every one of them was big news.
"Since it's a church... why are you chasing Index? Also, why did you just say that she will die?" Kamijou was about to continue asking, but Black Fire gently held his shoulder.
——"Don't make any noise, just listen to her."
"She is my...most important friend...that child has 'complete memory ability' and one hundred and thirty thousand magic books. Most people will go crazy after reading one book, but that child is not affected...forget it.
What's the use of telling you this... In short, more than 85% of her brain capacity has been occupied by 13,000 magic books, and only less than 10% is left.
Five can maintain her functions... So, in order to ensure her life, we only have..."
