More Villainous Than the Villain

The Spider gritted its teeth, a flicker of fear crossing its eyes.

As soon as he recalled being chased, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back.

I'm traumatized by the beating...

"But it's up to you to decide."

Fujino smiled and slowly walked towards the Spider: "Which side should I start with, the left or the right?"

'Which side should we start with?'

The Spider was taken aback, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Isn't this just like trying to cut his kidneys?!

It could be said that the white-robed man before him was the most terrifying opponent he had ever encountered.

Although he had encountered such a strong opponent before, it was a High School Detective who beat him up with Wooden Sword.

But there is absolutely no one else as terrifying as this!

Fighters specifically target kidneys, isn't that terrifying?

The Spider had some doubts about whether the other party was from Myanmar, but it had no doubt that the other party would really cut off its kidneys!

'You seem more like the villain than the villain.'

Kuroba Kaito glanced at Fujino, who was gradually approaching the Spider, and couldn't help but mutter a complaint to himself.

Compared to the illusionary killer Spider, he felt that Fujino, who now appeared to him with a 'smirking' look, 'surrounded by a black mist', and 'intending to rip someone out of their kidneys', was even more terrifying.

He's even more villainous than the villain himself!

"Spider!"

Hakuba Saguru quickly arrived, glanced at the three Kaito Kid who had appeared, and then shouted at the Spider, "Your name is Günter von Göttingenbak II, and on the surface you are a world-class illusionist, but that is not your true identity. Your real name is unknown, your nationality is unknown, and your age is unknown, but one day I will find out your true identity!"

"Another troublesome fellow has arrived!"

Spider stared at Hakuba Saguru, his brow furrowing.

From Europe to Japan, this troublesome, immature brat has followed us again!

Now his mask is broken, and in front of him are Kaito Kid, Hakuba Saguru, and a terrifying figure who wants to rip his kidneys off.

'Looks like we have no choice but to use that thing...'

After a quick thought, the Spider made a decision, flipped a steel ball the size of a thumb from its wrist, and threw it on the ground.

"BOOM!"

A loud explosion resounded all around.

The small steel ball exploded, releasing a large amount of smoke that even formed a huge mushroom cloud.

A large amount of airflow spread outwards from the center of the explosion.

All of them were swept away by this massive gust of air.

In a fog.

Fujino opened his eyes, and a medieval temple appeared before him.

Looking around, all around were believers dressed in red robes and wearing red straw hats.

Around him, countless soldiers clad in silver armor held spears, their blades pointed at him.

"Hypnosis again..."

Fujino held his breath and thought, "The small ball that the Spider just dropped must have been full of hallucinogenic gas. It seems that the Spider's methods are not limited to just masks."

However, since he had already achieved his goal, it didn't matter much that the Spider got away.

I don't know if it's a bluff or something else.

But it seems that Kuroba Kaito's father's death was also related to the Spider.

It's better to leave this matter of avenging one's father to Kuroba Kaito himself.

He won't do it for him.

"But this guy's hypnosis is actually quite interesting..."

Fujino looked around at the soldiers with their various expressions and the exquisitely decorated temple. "If this is a hallucination created by hypnosis, it's too real... I just wonder if there's Saintess or something."

Shaking his head, Fujino didn't think too much about it and casually opened the system interface.

[Host detected to be in a hallucination state]

[Since the hypnosis was deeper than before, should we use one million yen to obtain ten minutes to break through the illusions?]

"Another million, right?"

Fujino remained silent for a moment, and didn't bother to argue with the unscrupulous merchant system too much.

He casually spent one million yen to break free from his hypnotic state.

The next moment, the surrounding mist gradually dissipated.

Fujino's eyes regained their focus, and he looked around. Koizumi Akako and Kuroba Kaito were lying beside him.

Hakuba Saguru, however, had vanished without a trace, seemingly swept away in another direction by the recent gust of wind.

Fujino stood up and slowly walked towards the two people beside him.

He Hakuba Saguru aside for now.

Koizumi Akako and Kuroba Kaito neither had frequent experience fighting Spider, so they lacked drug resistance.

Let's wake these two up first.

With that thought in mind, Fujino pulled out Wooden Sword from under his cloak and smashed it down on the heads of the two Kaito Kid standing to the side.

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

Two muffled thuds.

The two were released from hypnosis.

"Hey! Hey!"

Kuroba Kaito rubbed his head, which felt like it had been hit by a headbutt, and looked at Fujino resentfully. "Couldn't you have woken me up in a different way?"

"I'm sorry."

Fujino said somewhat helplessly, "In that case, I won't use the Wooden Sword next time. I'll use cold water next time. Although it's not as effective, it doesn't hurt."

"I still think Wooden Sword is better."

"That won't do! I already promised you I wouldn't use Wooden Sword next time. You have to use cold water, and it has to be the kind with ice!"

"Please be sure to use Wooden Sword."

"Oh well."

Fujino had no choice but to agree to the request.

This was the first time he had ever encountered someone who volunteered to be hit with Wooden Sword.

However, since it was the other party who took the initiative, he had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

Kuroba Kaito breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

He felt that the Wooden Sword was more comfortable than the cold water.

Although the Wooden Sword hurt a bit, it only lasted for a short time, and I didn't get injured. Sometimes it even felt quite comfortable...

If it were a splash of cold water instead, that would be a real mental and physical injury, and might even cause you to catch a cold!

It's terrifying to think about; if that stuff were poured on you, you probably wouldn't recover for a while.

"I've fallen for that illusion magic again..."

After Koizumi Akako woke up, she didn't care about being hit by the Wooden Sword. Instead, she was quite angry because she had been hypnotized.

As a magician, it was one thing for her to be hypnotized the first time, but she was hypnotized the second time, and now she's been hypnotized a third time!

This is a disgrace to magicians!

She took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

Then he looked at the two people in white vests standing to the side.

Kuroba Kaito!

She took a gem out of her pocket and handed it to Kuroba Kaito: "You owe me a favor this time!"

Kuroba Kaito: "..."

Why are you doing this too?

Why do I feel like I owe more and more favors?

"Child of Moonlight!"

After handing over the gemstone, Koizumi Akako turned to Fujino and said, "I knew it..."

"Um?"

Fujino frowned and looked at Koizumi Akako: "Who are you talking about?"

"Playing dumb again..."

Koizumi Akako sighed and covered her head.

Why are all these stinky men like this?

So you think you can just change your identity by putting on a disguise?

"Snort!"

Koizumi Akako snorted, waved her cloak, then pulled out a broom from it, mounted it, and said, "I'll let it go today, but I'll come find you another day!"

Don't forget the money you owe me!

Fujino shouted after Koizumi Akako as she walked away, adding, "Ten million yen! And two million in compensation for emotional distress!"

Koizumi Akako was flying in mid-air, was stunned for a moment and almost fell down with her broom.
