As the sun sets, at the school gate, two boys who both possess the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception finally meet face to face, gazing at each other through the school gate.

Fang Li's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the slender boy in his school uniform with short black hair.

If you really want to be serious, this isn't the first time Fang Li has faced "Tohno Shiki".

In the Main God Space, in the training ground, Fang Li had already simulated Tohno Shiki countless times and fought against him.

However, when Fang Li actually met Tohno Shiki, Fang Li realized that the people simulated in the training ground were all imposters.

At least, the Tohno Shiki simulated in the training ground of the Main God Space would only rush towards Fang Li, with a pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes and waving the dagger in his hand.

The Tohno Shiki standing before him seemed somewhat foolish as he stared at Fang Li, completely lacking the cold aura and decisive ruthlessness of the Tohno Shiki simulated in the training ground.

In addition, Tohno Shiki in front of him also possesses something that the simulated subjects in the training ground do not have.

Those were glasses.

A pair of ordinary square-framed glasses.

Wearing a pair of very common square-framed glasses, Tohno Shiki asked Fang Li this question in a slightly uncertain tone.

"Excuse me, are you someone sent by the Tohno family?"

There was no timidity in his voice, but it wasn't particularly forceful either; it was just a simple question.

This is just an ordinary high school student you'd see anywhere.

I believe that anyone who sees Tohno Shiki for the first time will have this impression.

In other words, Tohno Shiki has nothing particularly outstanding about him.

Of course, that's only on the surface.

Only Fang Li knew that the seemingly ordinary boy in front of him was, like himself, a being with the true nature of Killer Demon.

Fang Li then smiled slightly at Tohno Shiki and slowly began to speak.

"Yes, Master Shiki, I am the butler of the Tohno family. I am here to pick you up on the orders of Lady Akiba."

At this moment, Fang Li bowed to Tohno Shiki like a perfect butler.

However, Tohno Shiki was somewhat flustered.

"I did hear that the Tohno family would send someone to pick me up," Tohno Shiki said with a worried expression. "But, is it unnecessary for that 'young master'?"

"How can that be?" Fang Li said righteously, "You are the eldest son of the Tohno family, and I am the Tohno family's butler. If the young lady finds out that I have been disrespectful in front of the young master, she will blame me."

This is what the butler, who woke up later than the young lady he was talking about this morning and was extremely unrestrained in front of her, said.

Tohno Shiki was easily deceived by Fang Li's righteous and serious attitude and began to sigh.

"Even so, I've been living in the branch family of the Arima family for the past eight years." Tohno Shiki scratched his head and said, "The Arima family is just an ordinary family. I would really feel very uncomfortable if they suddenly called me young master."

"Is that so?" The righteous indignation and seriousness on Fang Li's face vanished abruptly, replaced by ease and composure. He said, "In that case, I have no choice but to overstep my bounds."

Fang Li's abrupt change seemed to catch Tohno Shiki, leaving him stunned once again.

"What's wrong?" Fang Li looked at Tohno Shiki, who was standing there dumbfounded, and with a slight smile, he shrugged and said, "Is it still too rude of me to be like this? I should have been more respectful to you, young master?"

"No, no, no, this is much better." Tohno Shiki finally realized what was happening and quickly said, "It was better the way you did it just now. Please do it that way, please."

Looking at Tohno Shiki's somewhat desperate appearance, it seems that he is really not used to being treated with too much respect.

Fang Li had clearly anticipated this, which is why he found it amusing.

"In that case, shall I just call you by your name?"

Fang Li turned his gaze directly to Tohno Shiki, and then spoke indifferently.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Nanaya Fang Li. I hope we can get to know each other."

Upon hearing this, Tohno Shiki's expression froze.

"Seven... nights...?"

As if he had heard something unbelievable, Tohno Shiki's eyes became somewhat dazed.

Beneath his unremarkable square-framed glasses, a hint of icy blue suddenly flashed.

Upon seeing this, Fang Li's eyes flickered slightly, and his dark pupils suddenly turned ice blue.

The two pairs of Magic Eye suddenly locked eyes.

"————!"

Immediately afterwards, a shocking sensation surged through the minds of both Fang Li and Tohno Shiki.

"Ugh...!"

The one who made that sound was Tohno Shiki.

Suddenly, Tohno Shiki clutched his head as if he had been hit hard by something, and took several steps back.

There was nothing unusual about the Fang Li.

Therefore, Fang Li understood what had happened almost immediately.

"The mutual reading of the Magic Eye?"

In that instant, Fang Li and Tohno Shiki's Mystic Eyes of Death Perception locked eyes, both focusing on the death of the other's Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

Originally, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are what can read the death of things and allow them to be received visually.

As a result, Mystic Eyes of Death Perception reads the death of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, it naturally creates a logical conflict.

This conflict leads to the brain working overtime in order to read the object's death.

After all, if you want to face death directly, you must first understand death.

The human brain cannot comprehend the concept of death. Forcing an understanding of it would place a huge burden on the brain, potentially leading to brain death and rendering the person useless.

That's why Tohno Shiki reacted this way, clutching his head and looking pained.

If it weren't for the fact that Tohno Shiki was wearing those glasses called Mystic Eye Killers, which to some extent shielded the power of the Magic Eye, he probably Tohno Shiki have already fainted.

The reason Fang Li was unharmed was simply because, for him, understanding death was as natural as eating, and it didn't burden his brain like it did for Tohno Shiki.

At that moment, Fang Li suppressed the materialization of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, restoring his eyes to their dark color, and walked towards Tohno Shiki, supporting him.

Seeing that Tohno Shiki still seemed to be in some pain, Fang Li asked, "Are you alright?"

"N-nothing... it's nothing." Tohno Shiki forced a smile and said, "It's just a bit of a headache."

"Then let's hurry back to the manor." Fang Li said without waiting for a reply. "Come here, let me help you."

With Fang Li's help, Tohno Shiki finally took his first steps.

Two boys with Magic Eye that seem to see death meet each other at this very moment and head towards the Tohno family.
