“Are you sure they're here, Nii-chan?” ask Sachiko.

“Yes, I've made sure to use [Kenbunshoku Haki].” Keith nodded. “The original distance from Haki-ku is 20 meters, but by focusing myself, I can increase its range, even if it is only about 5 meters.”

Due to the urgent situation, which Rikka is suspected of being the individual affected by the curse, Keith along with Suiseiseiseki and Sachiko went into observer mode and moved quickly in a straight line. It was fortunate that Keith using [Shikigami no Mai] had the ability to levitate, then the remaining two were unquestionable.

To Miko, she is left with Souseiseki. Being alone was too dangerous after all, whereas Miko who could not break through the wall would prolong them by having to follow the winding passage. In fact, Keith himself did not know which passage was right and which passage was misleading, whereas Miko herself had forgotten the previous path. He also needed to fight some monsters halfway.

Kino begins to go outside the classroom to look for the uncertain whereabouts of Rikka Takanashi.

The hallways here are dark and damp. The signs of life were filled with the blood red color and the dimness of the room lights. The feeling of pressure and increasingly made Kino feel uneasy, but she still managed to maintain her calm face. He's very good at that.

The steps in the long hallway and a few turns passed Kino until she was finally at the toilet seat, where Rikka was supposed to be there. The closer he got to that place, the more clearly he listened to Rikka Takanashi's voice as if he was talking to something, but only his voice sounded without the interlocutor's voice.

When he turned, how surprised he was to see Rikka's appearance.

"I thought so, yeah. It wasn't Miko who went crazy in this place, but it was you who had gone crazy.", said Kino slowly.

He saw the figure of Rikka talking, not to a normal figure like a human, but the figure was a ghost.

The first was the ghost of a headless little girl in bloodstained clothes, while the second was a boy with a head that had been cut off from the jaw to the top. Of course these two ghosts could not respond to Rikka's words, but they both seemed to hear what Rikka said.

"Oh... Is it Kino?" He turned to Kino with his face filled with a crazy smile. "See this, Kino. They are both my new friends. Both of them were good children, it was a pity that they were both stuck in this place. What do you think if we take them out of here?"

"I'm sorry, but I have to refuse." Kino picked up the persuader rifle behind his back.

*dor!* *dor!*

Two shots with light attributes instantly pierced through the two ghostly figures, then instantly annihilated them in a single strike.

"After all, the two of them are not someone who should be in this world," Kino replied flatly while still holding her rifle.

“Why? Why can you do such a cruel thing?” Rikka asked with innocent eyes, not knowing her mistake. “But the two of them are just kids who want to be good friends. Why did you destroy them both? What mistake did they both make to have to endure all that pain?”

“Rikka, listen to me. You are currently unwell.” Kino pointed his persuasion rifle at Rikka. “Better, you rest at this time. Do not do anything, do not use your strength, and calm your own mind.”

Kino has no intention of killing Rikka. He pointed the rifle at Rikka's shoulder, which would only paralyze her if the situation worsened. If this is still lacking, he can still shoot into the other shoulder, foot, or any area that is not a vital point. Even though Kino did not possess recovery-type skills, what else could he do other than cripple it in that way?

He was not like Miko who was a member of the group by fighting to set a trap. She was unlike Miko who had the ability to bind her opponent. There was not much he could do other than injure the opponent to cripple. Martial technique? Forget it, since he did not have this ability in his skill list.

“Why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Wh why? Why?” Rikka just repeated the same word with her crazy.

“Troubles only…. Too bad I couldn't help him,” monologue Kino flat.

*dor!*

*trank!*

Unfortunately, Rikka used [Accel] to speed herself up, then formed an elemental waffe that repelled the bullet using algae from her hammer.

Rikka's expression was extremely cold as if she didn't care at all about what was around her. It was the eyes of someone who had lost his will to live and was under deep depression. But unlike people who despair, Rikka's will is not to end her life, but she wants to end the life of anyone who tries to stop her.

‘Quick! The ability of the group cannot be underestimated!’

*ses!*

Rikka suddenly just appeared behind Kino using [Accel] and [Gap-Cleaver (Shukuchi)]. His elemental waffle had changed from a hammer shape to a very thick sword shape.

*ses!* *sis!* *sis!* *sis!*

[Fluoroscopy] Kino had informed him about Rikka appearing behind him. He immediately jumped away using [Accel] and [Shunshin no jutsu], then as long as he jumped a few knife throws Kino did.

*girl!* *clank!* *clank!* *clank!*

Rikka turned her sword like a stick in front of her body, making the three blades bounce off.

‘Antracious, yes. I didn't expect him to be able to turn the sword like a stick. Also, did he not care about the blade of that sword?’ Kino landed a few feet away. ‘But my attack is still not finished! [Homing Enchant]!’

*floating!*

The three blades floated like someone was controlling them.

Yep, it was Kino who did it using the [Homing Enchant]. [Homing Enchant] itself is the ability of a person to be able to control projectiles remotely by making a relationship like “benang” with the object. This is the magic that Alma used from the world of Shikkaku Mon no Saikyou Kenja.

*poof!* *trank!* *trank!* *trank!* *trank!*

Rikka turned her big sword into a katana, then one by one started fending off the blades that were pointing at her.

*trank!* *trank!* *trank!* *trank!*

But Kino was certainly not an amateur in the fight, so the blows of the blades from various directions continued to attack Rikka many times for quite some time.

Kino himself did not take much action other than observing Rikka's very strange movements, different from the usual way of fighting. Other than because he had to focus on controlling all three of his knives, not much of an attack could be done. The knife throw when in [Accel] and [Shunshin no jutsu] alone was successfully repelled, so what about ordinary bullets? The speed of the [Accel] skill can overcome many things.

‘The movement is completely different from before. She's like being a highly trained, not a playful girl like before. Is this the ability of the curse in this place? Too bad he went crazy and wild.’
