Conan: Top succubus, crazy CP

Chapter 965: The Departed Hometown and the Sad God

"Big as you! What kind of magic is this?"

After the "talent show", Koizumi Anko has sat down again, trying to calm her pounding heart and messy hair. She looked at Hanyu Kusunoki, with visible black lines on her forehead, and her fists were stiff.

She discovered that, apart from possessing an unreasonably huge and terrifying amount of energy, this guy knew nothing about systematic, sophisticated magic that required knowledge and rituals.

It's all about brute force! Crushing with energy!

"you…"

Hongzi took a deep breath and resisted the urge to curse.

She pointed at him, her fingers trembling slightly. "That's not magic at all! You're cheating! You're using tricks! You're a hooligan! How can you just use energy to attack like that?! Magic is an art! It's a ritual! It's the resonance of knowledge and the laws of the world! It's not miracles created by sheer force!"

Hanyu Kusunoki spread his hands, looking innocent and aggrieved. "What do you mean by cheating? I'm suing you for defamation! I've been a three-good student since I was a child, well-rounded in moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor skills. I've never cheated!"

At the same time, he silently called out in his heart: "System, hurry up, strengthen me, give me some magic props or knowledge, and subdue this girl!"

system:"……"

And you said you can't cheat!

Koizumi Hongzi was still grumbling angrily, "Where on earth did you come from, you freak? My previous divination showed that your fate line was unclear, but it seemed to have some connection to the lost land in the east... Did you inherit some kind of legacy from there? Otherwise, your incredibly fast cultivation speed and reckless methods are simply inexplicable!"

East?

Hanyu Kusunoki's mind moved.

This question has always been in his heart.

When he first arrived in this world, he discovered that the familiar continent did not appear on the map. Instead, there was a blank ocean.

He asked, his tone tinged with subtle seriousness, "Did you know... there used to be a continent next to this world? A place called Shenzhou or something similar?"

When Koizumi Hongzi heard this, a look of pride suddenly appeared on her face. She had finally encountered her strong point in knowledge.

It was a rare opportunity to regain some ground and a sense of superiority in front of Hanyu Kusunoki. The witch raised her chin slightly and snorted, "Hmph! Do you think our red magic, which has been passed down for thousands of years, is just for free? Of course it is recorded in our ancient texts, even if it is just scattered fragments!"

She gathered her emotions and spoke in the tone of someone recounting an ancient legend, "About two thousand years ago, there truly was an incredibly vast and powerful continent in the east of the world, known as 'Shenzhou,' 'Zhendan,' or 'Chixian.' Legend has it that the vast majority of the world's ancient cultivation systems, whether it's our magic, Western divine power, or even even older witchcraft, can trace their origins back to that land."

“However, around two thousand years ago, the world’s spiritual energy began to gradually decline and dry up.

According to the most secretive texts, the Eastern Divine Land was once ruled by a powerful alliance known as the Hundred Schools of Thought. They seemed to have foreseen the coming of the Dharma Ending Age and, mobilizing the entire continent, were secretly carrying out a massive plan...

Hongzi's voice grew deep and mysterious. "Then, one day, without warning... the entire Shenzhou continent, along with its billions of lives, its glorious civilization, and all its practitioners... instantly vanished from this world. It wasn't just a sinking, it was a complete annihilation, vanishing completely, vanishing everything in space and matter."

"According to the scattered records left by those sinners who were exiled to these 'marginal islands' for various reasons, they believed that the 'Hundred Schools of Thought' led the people of China to ascend to a new, higher world filled with spiritual energy... and that they would never return."

Over two thousand years ago... during the Warring States Period... the various schools of thought... the entire world ascended...

Hanyu Kusunoki listened quietly, every word hitting his heart like a hammer.

An indescribable, deep sadness slowly flooded over my heart like a tide, instantly drowning out the slight joy and playful thoughts from my successful pretense just now.

home......

Even if it was just this strange, seemingly real hometown, I left it completely.

He can never go back.

There isn't even a place to pay tribute.

The melancholy of "losing his hometown" and the huge sense of loneliness became extremely clear and heavy at this moment. He seemed to have become an eternal wanderer in endless time and space, a rootless duckweed, unable to find a home.

He lowered his head slightly and remained silent.

The aura around him became quiet, ethereal and lonely at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It seems as if there is an invisible membrane separating it from everything around it.

After Koizumi Akako finished telling the secret, she was about to take the opportunity to ask Hanyu Kusunoki whether he really had obtained some precious inheritance left over from the East, and whether he could take it out for her to "open her eyes" and "study".

But before she could finish her words, her keen witch sense suddenly sensed an extremely strong, indescribable feeling of sadness, which spread out from Hanyu Kusunoki like a real tide.

She subconsciously looked at Hanyu Kusunoki in astonishment, only to see that he had fallen into deep silence, with his head lowered, his expression unclear, but the aura around him had become extremely ethereal and lonely.

What made her even more anxious was...

This young man, who has always been strong, confident, and even a little cynical, is emitting an alienated atmosphere of "leaving", "going far away", and "not belonging here".

And it’s getting stronger and stronger, more and more real!

Leave? Where is he leaving to?

For no apparent reason, Koizumi Akako felt a surge of panic, as if something extremely important that anchored the world was loosening and about to be lost.

She even had the illusion that the space around her was slightly distorted because of his sadness.

The gods' silent cries stirred up the world's sorrow.

"quack--!"

On the roof of the studio, the originally quiet crows seemed to have sensed some extreme fear. Suddenly, they all fled in panic, flying around in all directions, screaming miserably, trying desperately to escape from this space, as if some great terror was about to befall!

Animals have the keenest sense of disaster and unknown danger.

Koizumi Hongzi herself also felt a cold fear coming from the deepest part of her soul, and her witch's intuition was giving her a crazy warning!

She had a clear premonition that if Hanyu Kusunoki was allowed to continue in this state, if that aura of "leaving" really reached its peak... it might lead to unimaginable and catastrophic consequences!

"Hey! Hanyu Kusunoki!"

She no longer cared about the witch's pride and demeanor. She stood up suddenly, her voice filled with a hint of panic and urgency that she herself didn't even notice. "You...what's wrong with you? Wake up! Stop daydreaming! Come back to your senses!"
