What’s going on? Did I do sothing just now? Why is he suddenly turning hostile?
In the dead silence and standoff, Gu Mo felt utterly confused, not knowing what had happened. After several seconds, he thought it necessary to do sothing to break the silence. He maintained a polite yet awkward smile on his face, tilting his head slightly:
"Sorry, what are you talking about... I don’t quite understand."
However...
Under the preconceived misunderstanding, regardless of his true intent, every word and action in such a situation was especially prone to being overinterpreted...
And always in the wrong direction.
Just like now—
Seeing the other person’s expression turn "stiff," and his smile instantly beco "cold," gumi Fushiguro was even more convinced of his thoughts. It was indeed the case! Upon seeing the special-grade Curse, the person was ready to act.
And after being seen through, he was prepared to turn hostile!
Looking at Gu Mo’s "stiff" deanor and the semi-smirking expression with his head tilted, he swallowed hard, suddenly feeling imnse pressure for no clear reason, with cold sweat faintly appearing on his forehead.
Despite lacking the skills, insight, and experience of a teacher, he still had basic logic. The person before him seed ordinary, but was definitely not ordinary. It was more likely that he couldn’t see through him, leading to a wrong conclusion.
So undoubtedly, the person’s strength far surpassed his own.
When faced with such an enemy, gumi Fushiguro had little confidence in holding off, especially with three burdens behind him, two of whom were unconscious... Even in a fair fight, there was no chance of victory. How could he manage with one against three?
The only way seed to be to hold on as long as possible until his teacher arrived.
"Why are you speechless?"
Without a response, Gu Mo felt even more awkward, especially being stared at intensely by this high school student as if looking at a class enemy. It put great pressure on him... Co to think of it, what kind of scenario was this? Was this a strange delusion of discovering himself as the final boss?
"..."
"..."
Though gumi Fushiguro remained silent, the "cold" and "mocking" words of the mysterious person across from him added another layer of tension, causing cold sweat to increase on his forehead bit by bit.
Is it about to happen?
"Hey, what’s going on, you... you aren’t acquaintances?" The high school boy behind them also sensed the dire atmosphere. Holding the girl in his arms, he stood up, urgently and anxiously asking in an attempt to prevent an impending terrible conflict.
He didn’t know who the person across from him was, initially thinking he was with gumi Fushiguro, so he didn’t ask much. But now it seed they belonged to completely opposing camps!
"Yuji, quickly take them away from here!"
gumi Fushiguro didn’t look back or explain. All the muscles and nerves in his body were fully tense, the whole person entering a state of high alert as if facing a formidable enemy.
"I..."
"Go now! Leave imdiately! You won’t be of help if you stay!"
"...Damn it! What about you!" The boy nad Yuji gritted his teeth, knowing that what the other said was true. In this situation, he would only be a burden, even detrintal, and there were two unconscious friends he needed to take away.
But he was also worried about gumi Fushiguro. The current situation was clearly distinguishable; the person across seed very frightening, and gumi wasn’t a match.
"You go first! I’ll catch up with you soon!"
gumi Fushiguro bit his teeth tightly, knowing that Yuji was worried, but at this mont, one should be decisive, or else they might not have a chance to run later.
"I say, are you done talking?"
Gu Mo was listening patiently, but at this point couldn’t help but interject, interrupting the two’s conversation. Because he found the current situation oddly familiar, like the classic tug-of-war often seen in TV dramas, making it hard for him to resist teasing.
"Wasting ti like this, none of you might escape..."
Do they think this is a Magical Girl transformation? That during their special cutscene ti, the enemy would just stand by without attacking?
But it was just a tease, nothing more he could do.
Yet—
Coincidentally, just as Gu Mo finished speaking!
The ceiling of the corridor above gumi Fushiguro seed to lt suddenly, a huge curse vortex appeared, a hideously terrifying massive body with heavy shadows and enormous pressure rapidly descended from above like Mount Tai pressing down, an extrely astonishing montum!
"Watch out—!!" Yuji at the back saw it clearly, his pupils shrinking to pinpoints, and he let out a scream that already broke.
But it was too late, especially since gumi Fushiguro had instinctively focused his mind entirely on Gu Mo. Being distracted by talking to Yuji naturally slowed his reaction, so when he looked up, the hideous sight was already looming close in his eyes.
No retreat, no escape.
Boom—!!
With a loud bang, it seed as if the entire building trembled, dust rising everywhere, and debris flying around.
