Chapter 100
The tornado's roar even devastated a small city.
At first, no one cared about the disaster; it was just a storm, an earthquake, the extinction of a species, and the disappearance of a city.
Until this disaster became relevant to everyone...
Just as the world was quietly changing.
Sitting in the valley, Hasegawa Izumi suddenly opened her eyes, completely ignoring her already soaked clothes, and muttered to herself with a glint in her eyes.
"This filthy world has finally seen a change."
He clearly sensed that the once silent world had been imbued with Spiritual Machine new vitality, as if the entire world had been revitalized, like groundwater gushing forth from a dried-up riverbed.
Rolling hills, lush greenery, trees and flowers nourished by Spiritual Energy, a vibrant scene of life and flourishing life is right before your eyes!
At this moment, Hasegawa Izumi felt like a fish that had re-entered the ocean.
However, although the changes brought about by the Day of Heavenly Change were dramatic, they were only observed from a micro perspective. From a macro perspective, the world did not undergo any drastic changes.
Even the major government agencies could only sense that today's disaster was unusual, but they had no way of knowing what had happened.
Only Hasegawa Izumi keenly noticed this change and saw an opportunity to climb higher.
Whether human or divine, in this new era, everything still requires the accumulation of time.
"If it were now, I should be able to do it."
He stretched out his right hand, palm open, his eyes shining like stars in the pitch-black night.
Strands of pale silver threads suddenly appeared from the void, all converging on the palm of the hand, gradually forming a small silver-white ball.
The silvery-white ball kept growing larger and continued to spin.
But as time went by, his expression became solemn and serious, and for the first time he felt the strain, with sweat beading on his forehead.
He stopped moving when the silver Light Orb grew to the size of an egg.
"Let's call this power 'spiritual power' for now."
This is his general term for a type of extraordinary power. All things in the world have a spirit, such as Chakra, Nen, Internal force, and ki. They can all be called this, just in different forms.
He forcibly gathered spiritual power from heaven and earth, and at this moment he had transcended the limitations of the mortal world, enabling him to use even more incredible methods.
No matter how fast or strong he was before, it was still within a limit, which was not incomprehensible to humans. However, the emergence of spiritual power can completely destroy human worldview.
"No rush, take your time. Sooner or later, the light of these fireflies will rival the brilliance of the sun and moon!"
Hasegawa Izumi murmured softly, then clenched his right hand. The silver Light Orb seemed to disappear, but in reality, it merged into his body in a more subtle way.
Stepping into the realm of the extraordinary, even he, with his temperament, felt immensely exhilarated.
Hahahahaha...
Unrestrained, exuberant laughter echoed throughout the secluded valley.
The next morning.
"Just last night, various disasters occurred all over the world, and currently, no one in the world knows what to do about it. Therefore, we have invited the renowned climatology expert, Mr. Harano. Please welcome him..."
"Hello everyone, I'm Harano."
"So, Mr. Harano, what are your thoughts on the widespread disaster that occurred around the world last night?"
"The cause is currently unknown, and the simultaneous occurrence of such a large-scale disaster worldwide is indeed unprecedented. In my personal opinion, this extreme weather disaster is directly related to global warming..."
The television was broadcasting the morning news, with the presenter discussing issues with experts.
What happened last night has attracted a lot of attention, and even Kōko couldn't help but take a second look.
"Kukuku, my My other half, last night's scenery was like the end of the world, but for me, Resis Vifelicity Huang, it's nothing but a trivial matter, not worth mentioning at all."
Turning around, the Little Sister proudly declared.
"Speaking of which, you were sleeping so soundly last night, my My other half! I knocked on the door really hard but you didn't answer!"
She then pouted, her expression full of resentment.
"Huh? Is that so?"
Hasegawa Izumi looked surprised, then remembered that it was already past midnight when she returned, which was why they had missed each other.
"Kōko, you're not so scared that you want to sleep with me, are you?"
He narrowed his eyes slightly.
"No, no, that's not it! I just wanted to reminisce with you about the times we broke through the darkness..."
Knowing that her thoughts had been read, Kōko blushed and blurted out something she didn't mean.
"There's no such time."
He responded with a nonchalant remark.
A new day, everything looks fresh and new.
Hasegawa Izumi looked around at the flowers, plants, and trees in the green belt, and could clearly sense the vitality surging within them.
The impact of the celestial changes is multifaceted; the current environment can be described as a free-spirited competition among all living things under the frosty sky.
Good morning, Hasegawa-kun!
"Um."
When he stepped onto campus, he received greetings from everyone as usual.
However, everyone's attention was more intense than usual.
"Hey, have you guys noticed? Hasegawa-kun has gotten so handsome!"
"Really? I don't think there's been any change in my appearance."
"I guess it's her aura! I feel like Hasegawa-kun has a very special quality about her. How should I describe it? Does she seem more lively? More energetic?"
Hearing the whispers around him, a thought struck him.
It must be the change brought about by my stepping into the extraordinary realm; compared to the illusory aura before, this is a fundamental difference.
If you look at the game panel, you should be able to see that his charm value has increased by at least ten percentage points.
If he wanted, he could even equip himself with a skill called 'Charm', becoming a femme fatale.
"Let's tone it down a bit."
He thought to himself, and with a single thought, he miraculously suppressed the extraordinary nature brought about by that fundamental transformation, returning to his usual self.
His goal wasn't to become a succubus.
When Takanashi Rikka arrived at her seat, she found Hasegawa looking out the window, seemingly deep in thought.
So she asked, "Sage, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh."
Hasegawa Izumi responded and turned around, saying, "I was thinking that after the upheaval, should we change our development plan for the Far East Magic Society? Staying in Shuchiin means we have too few opportunities to engage with the mystical. However, I don't have a clue how to expand outwards. If we recruit external members, trust will be another issue. If possible, I don't want to resort to methods that go against my will."
"A change in the heavens?"
The girl paused for a moment, stunned.
"It was just last night. I went out specifically to observe the changes brought about by the celestial transformation. It was truly incredible... Although I had some expectations, I was still quite moved when I saw it with my own eyes. To put it simply, it's similar to the 'Spiritual Energy revival' in some worlds. I believe that in the near future, this world will gradually give birth to some native powerhouses who embark on the path of extraordinary beings."
He rested his chin on his hand as he recounted these events, his expression one of intense emotion.
This was a state the girl had never seen before.
"Oh... oh, that sounds pretty good. In that case, we'll probably face even more challengers, right? But... we definitely won't be able to shake the existence of the Far East Magic Society, after all, the Wicked Eye of the Tyrant King is the strongest."
Takanashi Rikka stammered for a moment, then quickly recovered and said...
When class ended, Fujiwara Chika came running over.
"Izumi-chan, let me tell you, the thunder last night was terrifying! I covered my ears under the covers, but it didn't help. In the end, I had to let Moeha sleep with me and cover my belly button so I could fall asleep..."
She covered her navel, seemingly recalling that fear.
Why do people cover their belly button when they're afraid of thunder?
Chika-chan's way of thinking is truly unpredictable.
Hasegawa Izumi listened silently to her complaints.
It was during the lunch break.
He sent a message in the group.
Sage: Don't be late for the club activity this afternoon, I have something to announce.
Joining club activities is usually not mandatory; otherwise, there wouldn't be the term "ghost member."
Normally, the girls would be late or even ask for leave for various reasons.
Therefore, his reminder is particularly important.
Greedy Witch: Received, Club President.
Mori summer: +1.
Thunder Hammer User: +1.
"Nibuya- kun, what do you think the Club President will announce today?"
Natsukawa Masuzu arrived at Nibuya's seat without anyone noticing, her eyes sparkling with a charming smile.
"How would I know? If it were that easy to guess, he wouldn't be the Club President."
Nibuya Morika, recalling what Hasegawa had said earlier, offered her opinion.
"That's true... Hopefully it'll be a lot of fun, like the previous challenge."
Natsukawa Masuzu stretched, a hint of wickedness creeping into his smile.
"That troublemaker, has he recovered from yesterday's disappointment so quickly?"
Nibuya Morika's eyes narrowed.
"Because the Club President said those things for me! All his injuries must have been healed!"
He was speaking to all members of the organization.
"I'm not listening! I'm not listening!"
Seeing the other person cover their ears and pretend to be deaf, Nibuya Morika's eyes flickered, and she asked in a low voice.
"You haven't fallen for Seeker of Truth, have you?"
"Huh? How is that possible!"
Natsukawa Masuzu turned her head, her silver hair fluttering, her expression showing a hint of shame and anger.
"Eh~"
Nibuya Morika spoke in a teasing tone.
This is clearly a sign of wavering!
"Death Dekumori! Whew... Whew..."
Due to the distance, even though Dekomori Sanae arrived at the scene as quickly as possible, she was still the last one.
"Too slow. You're such a useless fellow. Shouldn't Thunder Hammer User be good at speed?"
Taking this opportunity, Nibuya Morika made a sarcastic remark.
"Damn it! What's with this imposter's attitude? When are we going to have a speed-death contest?!"
Dekomori Sanae, of course, disagreed, panting heavily.
"Just find a seat."
Having important matters to attend to, Hasegawa Izumi didn't want the two to start arguing and interrupted them.
"Yes, Lord Sage."
Dekomori Sanae immediately sat obediently next to Rikka.
Nibuya Morika knew it wasn't the time to be nosy, so she kept quiet and waited for him to speak.
