The Way of Pure Love: Now Serializing! (Part 2)

Yet those terrifying words brought shallow dimples to the corners of the girl's lips.

"Yes."

Ah...

Did she want to kill her herself?

Russell seemed to realize something.

"You really want to 'devour' Mio Takamiya, don't you?"

She sat up slightly and hugged Russell from behind.

Flames, corpses, friends...

Memories of the past echoed through her mind.

At some point, the nightmare's slender fingers had clenched tightly into her palm, digging inward with all her strength.

That was the archenemy of her life.

Russell.

This kindhearted pervert had expressed his dislike for the Original Spirit more than once.

Besides, excluding the still-unknown master craftsman, he was probably the only one capable of fighting her, and he also possessed the racial tradition of hunting Spirits.

It was simply that he could not yet win consistently...

So—

"Take my Spirit Crystal."

"If you obtain Zafkiel, then if you break with Mio Takamiya in the future, you'll have countless chances to make mistakes."

She grabbed Russell's hand and squeezed it hard, even as her chest gradually turned blue beneath his grip.

Zafkiel.

One of the only three S-rank Angels.

Compared to Metatron, whose seal could easily be destroyed by high-intensity spiritual power, and Ratziel, whose data-searching ability could likewise be cut off by high-intensity spiritual power.

Tokisaki Kurumi's power targeted "time."

Therefore, her Angel would not become useless scrap metal simply because its target overwhelmed it with brute force.

Of course, if her output was insufficient, she would still get beaten even after returning to the past. There was nothing to be done about that.

Tokisaki Kurumi was not good at frontal combat.

So, was she going to grant someone else the power to slaughter through the timeline?

Russell had to applaud the girl's resolve.

She had not asked him to help her.
