Opening the Second Dimension with the FGO Method

"Lord Koizumi...!"

Serenity whispered, drawing Koizumi's attention.

Serenity's arrival wasn't surprising. Ever since he'd blocked her poison, her attitude toward him had shifted. Koizumi had anticipated she would seek him out.

"Ah, it's you... Serenity. What brings you here?"

Koizumi looked at Serenity with feigned curiosity. He'd already found the girl's behavior odd.

Logically, she shouldn't be so warm towards him. So why was she blushing?

Indeed, Serenity Hassan was looking at Koizumi with a slightly flushed face, her eyes sparkling with a strange light.

She was clearly shy, but also expectant. What was she anticipating? Did she want to poison him to death again? Even if she was a poisoner, this was too much...

Koizumi, sensing her emotions, couldn't help but mentally retort, a sense of speechlessness washing over him.

He didn't know what Serenity Hassan was thinking, but it was definitely related to him.

"Lord Koizumi... will you... really not die? Won't you be poisoned to death by my poison..."

Serenity Hassan hesitated before finally asking.

Koizumi paused slightly. All this strange behavior was just because of this?

It really was as he thought? She was curious if he really couldn't be poisoned by her?

So, was she planning to try again, to see if her poison was effective on him?

So she really wanted to poison him to death... Now he understood why she was called a poisoner...

She was called a poisoner because of her poisonous heart... Well, just kidding.

Having poison all over one's body wasn't a good thing. It made many things difficult, especially for a woman.

If her whole body was poison, the food she made would be poisonous, and she couldn't do much.

And it was also a kind of sorrow... Although Koizumi didn't know Serenity's life story, he could see that she didn't like the poison on her body, and even felt sorrowful about it.

This was the deep emotion Koizumi sensed in Serenity's heart using his ability to sense emotions.

So, this ability was really useful. He could often deduce a lot from emotional changes.

"If you don't believe it, you can try it, as long as you don't mind suddenly having contact with a man."

She was a woman, after all, and Koizumi needed to consider her feelings. Men and women shouldn't be too familiar.

However, looking at Serenity, it probably wouldn't be a problem. As an assassin, she shouldn't have such concerns. Many times, her targets were men, so she shouldn't have any reservations.

Koizumi only asked as a matter of courtesy.

It was a necessary quality as a man... and as a gentleman, otherwise, it would be too rude.

Serenity Hassan's eyes suddenly became fanatical, as if she had seen something highly sought after.

For some reason, seeing her like this, Koizumi's mind immediately thought of the term "die-hard fan."

"I... really... can I touch you?"

"... " I haven't even said anything yet, and you're already asking to touch me... He suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion...

Seeing Koizumi's silence, Serenity Hassan, emboldened by who knows where, took his silence as consent, quickly grabbed Koizumi's right hand, held it in her hands like a treasure, and gently caressed it, leaving Koizumi speechless.

Serenity Hassan's hand was a little cold, but that wasn't what Koizumi cared about. He was more concerned about the girl's eyes, which looked like a pervert, grabbing his hand and repeatedly kneading it, rubbing it, and even sticking her tongue out to lick it... Did she think the poison in bodily fluids was stronger?

Although Koizumi knew that Serenity Hassan was a [Poison Girl] assassin who mainly used the poison on her body, he didn't know much about her life, so he couldn't understand her behavior. To ordinary people, this was a pervert, but for Serenity, who could find someone who wasn't afraid of her poison and was even completely immune to it, this was a great salvation.

Koizumi could feel Serenity's joy, but he couldn't quite understand her thoughts.

However, if he put himself in her shoes, Koizumi might be able to understand Serenity's current mood.

So, although Koizumi was a little unaccustomed to Serenity's behavior, he could still tolerate it.

"It seems... you're very happy to have found someone who isn't afraid of or even immune to your poison. I can feel your emotions..." Koizumi smiled faintly and held Serenity Hassan's hand in return.

Serenity's cheeks were slightly red, and her eyes were filled with intense fanaticism.

Uncontrollable excitement made Serenity's body tremble slightly, and Koizumi's heart was also infected by her emotions.

There was no way around it. While sensing the other person's emotions, he would also be slightly affected by them. After all, Koizumi didn't have a good grasp of this ability, so it was normal for there to be some problems.

"Everything that makes up my body, including mucous membranes, bodily fluids, and so on, are all highly poisonous, so..."

Serenity didn't finish her sentence, but Koizumi understood what she meant.

Because everyone who had touched Serenity had died, she could be said to be completely numb to the existence of those who died because of her poison, and even her mind might be distorted or broken. So, suddenly seeing someone who wouldn't die because of her poison, this novelty, or even excitement, was hard to suppress. This was a different kind of salvation for Serenity. Her salvation wasn't something she could achieve through her own efforts, but something that only others could bring her.

Koizumi didn't know what to say about Serenity's excitement. He was happy to be able to save such a girl, after all, doing good deeds accumulated merit...

However, it was better for this girl not to do this kind of thing in front of others in the future, otherwise, people might think he was someone with a penchant for discipline...

Suddenly, the Command Seal on Koizumi's right hand began to glow with a blood-red light. To the astonishment of Serenity and Koizumi, a huge magic circle appeared beneath their feet.

Slowly, surging magical power instantly wrapped around Serenity's body. The ground cracked due to the excessive magical power, and then a nearly tangible portion of the magical power poured into the back of Koizumi's right hand.

As if because the magical power was too great, Serenity couldn't help but groan, but her strength was indeed increasing.

So, not only did Serenity not have any dissatisfaction, but she also smiled with joy. The surging magical power was like a centipede with poisonous fangs, constantly crawling back and forth in her body, bringing pain while filling her once empty body, constantly improving her abilities, and filling her entire body with power, until it could no longer hold any more. In the end, all the magical power in Serenity's body had been replaced.

A strange sensation formed within Koizumi and Serenity, the connection of a contract.

It connected! It was the link between himself and him! Serenity's attire also began to change. The mask on its face disappeared, replaced by its original cheeks, an exceptionally beautiful face, comparable to Reimu's in looks.

Slowly, Serenity knelt down with a fanatical expression, a calm voice emerging from its mouth, yet with a hint of excitement within the calmness.

"Assassin, Serenity Hassan, hereby swears..."

Chapter 82: Caught in the Act

Koizumi felt that the sensation after falling asleep this time was very strange, completely different from the first two days of arriving at this Singularity. This uncomfortable feeling made Koizumi frown even in his sleep, as if worrying about something.

M……Mast……ter……Ple……Please hurry……Hurry and realize……the prob……

A series of intermittent sounds echoed in Koizumi's mind, but the last part was exceptionally blurry.

Judging from the tone, the speaker was clearly a woman, and her voice was very pleasant. Just hearing it conjured up images of delicate features. Moreover, in the moment the voice sounded, a figure seemed to appear in Koizumi's mind...

It was a woman wearing a nightcap shaped like a Santa hat, and a large book with a blue cover, imprinted with the letter D. Only these two features were particularly clear in Koizumi's memory, especially the blue-covered book.

The magic emanating from that book seemed extremely vast, causing Koizumi to feel a sense of apprehension.

Moreover, there seemed to be something inside that he was very concerned about, his gaze constantly fixed on that book.

It was as if something forgotten was recorded in that book, something he had forgotten... He wanted to retrieve it... But there was no opportunity to do so now. His right hand slowly reached out, but he couldn't touch it no matter what.

And gradually, Koizumi felt his figure moving further and further away from the book, completely unable to touch it even a little.

So far... so far... and the power was slowly decreasing... his body was becoming more and more powerless... what should he do...

Koizumi's intuition, inherited from Hakurei Reimu, told him that something very important to him was recorded on it.

In any case, he had to take back what belonged to him, but now... he couldn't touch it at all.

Gradually, as time passed, this space transformed from its original purple-blue color to black.

The light had completely disappeared. Koizumi couldn't even see his own hand, let alone the faintly visible girl.

"..." Facing this dark space, Koizumi's consciousness began to slowly sink.

Unable to catch the other party meant that now was not the time to understand these things, and... slowly, Koizumi felt the memories in his mind beginning to blur, as if a magical force was erasing this memory.

"Damn it... could it be that many of my memories have been erased because of this... I might have really met Akame's sister, but... the memory can't be retained?" Koizumi couldn't help but grit his teeth, feeling extremely unwilling. Why couldn't he retain these memories? Was it a lack of power? Or what was going on? It was really frustrating!

Slowly, Koizumi's figure disappeared into this black space.

Inside the Night Raid's Base of Operations, Koizumi was sleeping in his room.

The Night Raid's Base of Operations had quite a few rooms, of course, because there were suddenly a lot of people, some from the Revolutionary Army, and others were Koizumi and his two companions who were cooperating with the Revolutionary Army.

So Koizumi and the others were sleeping in two rooms, Koizumi alone in one room, and then Hata no Kokoro and Reimu in another.

There was no other way, but Reimu didn't have any complaints. It was much better than sleeping in the wilderness.

However, it seemed that Koizumi wasn't sleeping alone today... because Koizumi felt that there was someone in his bed, after all, the bed was so big, wouldn't he be able to tell if there was someone in his bed?

Koizumi quickly opened his eyes and quickly lifted the quilt covering his body. Immediately, a beautiful woman wrapped in black silk from head to toe came into Koizumi's view. Seeing this woman, even Koizumi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Seeing that Koizumi had discovered it, the woman didn't seem embarrassed at all, but instead looked excited.

"My Lord, you're finally awake!" Needless to say, the woman in front of him was actually Serenity Hassan.

"...Should I ask what exactly happened last night that made you suddenly run into my bed? I don't seem to have asked you to warm my bed, Serenity, did I?" Koizumi tried to make his emotions better. It was bad to lash out at girls, it would be a disgrace to his gentlemanly name... So it was better to calm down.

"As my Lord's blade, I should have the awareness to act accordingly even if my Lord doesn't give instructions!"

Serenity's tone was extremely fanatical, making Koizumi not know how to respond to its words.

Because Koizumi felt that all words had no effect on the Serenity in front of him, because Serenity had already regarded this behavior as its duty to dedicate itself to its master, and it should consciously carry out this matter even without the master's instructions.

So, Koizumi could only remain silent. In short, it was really good that he hadn't been discovered by anyone else.

If Reimu saw it, he would probably be close to death, after all, although Reimu was unprincipled, her concept of chastity was still in line with that era. This kind of behavior of abandoning all chastity was simply an extremely shameful act.

That's right, Reimu still had a sense of shame, it was just not that high. If she had to wear a swimsuit in front of Koizumi, she could accept it, as long as she didn't reveal everything. If she revealed everything... she would probably dig out Koizumi's eyes.

Well... digging them out wasn't likely, after all, it was just a metaphor, but her face would definitely not look good.

However, as the saying goes, what you worry about will come. Suddenly, a series of knocks on the door came, making Koizumi's body stiffen slightly.

"Master, are you awake? I'm here to wake you up... I thought you usually woke up very early?"

Without even thinking, Koizumi could clearly hear whose voice it was. After all, how could he not hear clearly the voice he heard every day? It was definitely Reimu's voice, and only Reimu had this tone. Hata no Kokoro's tone was more gentle than Reimu's.

But now was clearly not the time to think about whose voice it was. Now Serenity was lying on top of him, this posture would obviously be misunderstood! And anyone who saw this scene would misunderstand... Thinking of this, Koizumi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

This was a bit bad... When Koizumi saw his door slowly being pushed open, the ominous premonition in his heart became even stronger. Someone might die next!

Slowly, Reimu opened Koizumi's door, a pair of eyes staring at Koizumi in front of her.

However, when she stared at Serenity on Koizumi's body, the entire air suddenly froze.

Speaking of... wouldn't this be considered a "caught in the act" scene...

Chapter 83: Mission

The air gradually solidified, and even Koizumi's body was very stiff. Language seemed to have completely lost its function at this moment.

This was like being caught in the act. Koizumi couldn't explain anything at all, because under the gaze of the other party, all explanations seemed useless. Koizumi himself didn't know what to say next.

Reimu's eyes burned into Koizumi as if emitting scorching rays of heat.

What can I say...? Reimu saw the whole thing. What can I even say...?

Slowly, Reimu walked towards Koizumi, her face utterly expressionless, as if she had something particular in mind.

But the more Reimu acted like this, the more panicked Koizumi felt. He felt like he had somehow wronged her.

By the time Reimu approached Koizumi, Serenity was still sitting on him, showing no sign of getting off.

Is Serenity doing this on purpose? Did she know Reimu was coming to get me, so she did it on purpose?

"Um... I can explain..." Koizumi couldn't help but try to salvage some of his reputation before his demise. He had built up a pretty good image in front of Reimu and the others these past few days, but now it looked like that image was about to collapse.

"Explanations are useless! Death to the wicked!"

Reimu's face twisted into a demonic expression, and the gohei in her hand pulsed with intense magical power as she swung it towards Koizumi.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!

The next moment, an exceptionally loud explosion echoed through the Night Raid Base of Operations.

A huge hole had been blasted in the roof of the house, causing everyone who saw it to break out in a cold sweat.

What was going on so early in the morning? It looked like they would have to get Susanoo to fix the roof.

But speaking of which, using a Teigu for something like this... the other Teigu must be crying!

Was Susanoo lowering the standards for all Teigu? What's the point of a biological Teigu being so good at housework? Cooking, laundry, cleaning, he could do everything, practically taking over most people's jobs.

Sitting at the dining table, Reimu stared speechlessly at Koizumi. Although she knew it wasn't his fault, she just felt annoyed, as if something that belonged to her had been inexplicably stolen by someone else.

At the same time, Reimu learned that Serenity had formed a contract with Koizumi. She didn't have much to say about it; after all, it was their choice. Koizumi didn't reject Serenity's addition, and Serenity's abilities were quite good. An Assassin could bring a lot of information. Reimu and Hata no Kokoro excelled at direct combat, so leaving intelligence gathering to Serenity was fine.

So Serenity could provide Koizumi with considerable help. Of course, Koizumi was also looking forward to Hundred Personas joining.

Hundred Personas' ability was strong, capable of creating multiple clones, which would make their intelligence-gathering capabilities far superior to Serenity's.

And sometimes, this ability was also good for retreating. After all, with so many people, no one would know who escaped!
