This Man Foresaw Everything. / The Killing Festival, Tamamo-no-Mae.

Hasegawa Izumi followed her into the girl's boudoir, his gaze sweeping across the room before landing on a spot within.

On the large bed, the weak girl lay with her eyes closed. Her adorable face lacked the vitality she once had. Even with the air conditioning set to its highest temperature and several thick blankets covering her, her pale complexion remained unchanged.

Even more noticeably, glistening frost had formed around her.

Clearly, this is a realm beyond common sense.

Even a powerful local clan like the Yukinoshita family was completely unaware of this and had to ask others for help.

He approached, but the girl on the bed remained unresponsive, clearly having lost consciousness.

"How is she, Hasegawa-kun? Can you tell what's wrong with my Little Sister?"

An anxious voice came from behind.

"It's nothing, she's just about to awaken... However, uncontrollable awakenings can sometimes be risky. Her current situation is that she's having trouble controlling the power that's about to awaken. All she needs to do is calm down the restlessness of her spiritual energy."

He said calmly.

Yukinoshita Hiyori was completely confused by what she heard.

"Anyway, you can handle this, right?"

She cast a hopeful glance her way.

"For me, it's a piece of cake."

Chapter 118 This man foresaw everything.

Just as Hasegawa Izumi had previously predicted, because the power comes suddenly, the Awakened One may suffer from the harm of their own awakening, or even go berserk, all of which are the result of a lack of control over the power.

If it were based on his ability to help others awaken, then naturally things would be different; or those who break through that barrier of transcendence through their own efforts could also remain unharmed.

The girl in front of us encountered the worst situation: she lost consciousness during the awakening process and didn't even have a chance to try to control her abilities.

"Yukinoshita, it seems you're quite lucky too."

As he spoke, he reached out and touched the girl's forehead.

Upon contact, the girl's instincts kicked in, activating her abilities. A chill traveled from her fingertips, freezing his index finger inch by inch until it was covered with a layer of ice.

"Hasegawa-kun, are you... alright?"

Yukinoshita Hiyori was startled and asked worriedly.

"It's nothing. I'm just merging with Yukinoshita's spiritual energy. This way, I can control the flow and activation of her power."

With an air of nonchalance, Hasegawa Izumi subtly altered the control of this icy power. The chaotic spiritual energy fluctuations within the girl's body suddenly calmed down, circulating according to a certain pattern and gradually converging at the center of her brow.

A minute later, he removed his fingers.

It can be seen that a dazzling ice crystal appeared between Yukinoshita Yukino's eyebrows, which is a sign of her spiritual power manifesting.

"Hasegawa-kun, is Yukino alright?"

Seeing that he had stopped moving and that his Little Sister's expression had gradually relaxed, Yukinoshita Hiyori asked again.

"It's alright now."

"Then, why hasn't Yukino woken up yet?"

"Because her ability awakening is about to continue, just watch closely."

"... Um."

In a world covered in white snow.

Yukinoshita Yukino stared blankly at what was happening before her, reaching out to catch the snowflakes falling from the sky, completely bewildered by the situation.

Cold.

It's so cold.

Her body temperature was dropping lower and lower, causing her to instinctively hug herself while searching for a way out in this snow-covered world.

However, she gained nothing.

Just as her figure was about to disappear into the wind and snow, her body suddenly regained its vitality, and the surrounding ice and snow gave her a sense of comfort.

"I think I can control them?"

Yukinoshita Yukino a whim, acted on a sudden, inexplicable thought, grasping the wind and snow in her hands and forming a huge ice crystal.

The next moment, the world around them shattered like a mirror.

"Waaah..."

In reality, she slowly opened her eyes, her ice-blue eyes radiating extraordinary brilliance, her long black hair and eyebrows turning snow-white, like an ice and snow elf descended from another world.

In the room where the temperature had risen, glistening snowflakes appeared out of thin air—these were the abilities that unconsciously emanated at the moment of awakening.

This scene captivated Yukinoshita Hiyori, who couldn't resist reaching out to touch it to confirm its real existence.

She woke up again in a start.

"Sister, what happened to me just now? I only remember suddenly feeling very dizzy..."

Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at her older sister first, then looked away.

"And what are you doing here, Hasegawa! Am I hallucinating?"

She rubbed her temples, looking somewhat troubled.

Do I really miss that man I only met once?

"Wait a Yukinoshita, Yukinoshita is a real person..."

Hasegawa Izumi smiled slightly.

"Huh?"

Yukinoshita Yukino froze, her power spiraling out of control, and all the ice crystals floating in the air fell to the ground.

"Let me explain what happened. It all started when Yukino suddenly fainted, and then my mother..."

Yukinoshita Hiyori suddenly put on airs and explained the reason.

"Wait... let me digest this!"

After listening to everything, the snow-white girl raised her hand in greeting, then frowned and pondered quietly.

"Call..."

A few minutes later, she finished tidying everything up and let out a long sigh.

"I really never imagined that the world would become like this."

The changes that had occurred within her made Yukinoshita Yukino quickly accept the new setting.

"So, Yukinoshita, now that you possess power, you can understand what I said back then, right?"

Then Hasegawa Izumi spoke.

"What you said back then?"

Yukinoshita Yukino closed her eyes, and the conversation she had with the other person that day flashed through her mind.

What you truly lack is strength! Force! You can't change the world without using your fists!

I'm talking about pure... power that one controls oneself!

"I see."

She murmured to herself, suddenly realizing something.

Did this man actually foresee this situation?

That's unbelievable.

Aside from that, she found it difficult to describe her feelings at that moment.

The impact on her worldview was too great; she needed to change her perception.

Half an hour later.

After calming down in the bathroom, the girl changed into a sweater and a white long skirt, her long ponytail hanging down in front of her as she walked out.

On the long table next to the sofa, Yukinoshita Hiyori had already taken the time to make three cups of coffee.

"Thank you so much, Hasegawa. Without your help... this would be considered a life-saving favor, wouldn't it? How can I ever repay you?"

Yukinoshita Yukino sat down beside her, reached out and held the coffee cup, feeling the warmth emanating from it, her expression somewhat troubled.

"That's simple, just repay me with your body."

Her older sister had moved closer without her noticing and whispered something in her ear.

"Sister, sister!"

The girl's ears turned red, and she cried out in embarrassment and annoyance, making her even more adorable.

Hasegawa Izumi silently took a sip of coffee.

It's best to pretend you didn't hear those words.

"Yukinoshita, do you think I'm the kind of person who would take advantage of a favor? Saving you was just a casual act."

He said calmly.

"One thing at a time. It may not be important to you, Hasegawa, but it is very important to me... So, Hasegawa, from now on, I will help you with anything I can."

Yukinoshita Yukino insisted stubbornly, staring intently at him.

"Let's talk about this later! Kindness can never be fully repaid; we'll discuss it another time."

Fearing that the two might have differing opinions, Yukinoshita Hiyori suddenly changed the subject.

"Since Yukino is alright, let's continue with the New Year Festival. You must have come here for that too, Hasegawa, right?"

"That's right."

Hasegawa Izumi nodded.

"Then let's take a ride together? It's on our way."

She continued.

"That's possible... Yukinoshita, how well have you mastered your abilities?"

He turned his head and asked.

"It's still a bit difficult to control."

Yukinoshita Yukino replied.

"Then I'll teach you a bit on the way."

He pondered for a moment and then said.

The three then set off in a car towards the location of the New Year Festival.

"Okay, okay, I got it! See you at the destination."

Eriri hung up the phone impatiently and turned to Kōko to complain.

"Let's go, Kōko, your older brother is having an affair again and won't be back in time."

"Kukuku, my My other half is still as strong as ever."

Kōko's expression also seemed somewhat strained.

Then, a black sedan arrived, and the two got in.

"Gasang, Quan just called me and said things have..."

Eriri reported this to her mother.

"Really? Izumi-chan resolved it so quickly? It seems the second young lady of the Yukinoshita family is quite lucky. I wonder what kind of ability she awakened. But as a superhuman, she's definitely far ahead of ordinary people. I should get closer to her in the future."
