Chapter 435 I should have known you earlier

After being poked a few times, the mermaid reluctantly let go of the black thread, climbed off Jiang Xia, and swam around in a wide circle.

　　　Koizumi Hongzi still looked intently and had no reaction to the mermaid's actions.

Jiang Xia vaguely understood: ...she can’t see ghosts?

 Can't see the flow of magic power, and can't see ghosts...

Doesn't this mean that even if a ghost were to grab Koizumi Hongzi's energy core in front of her, she wouldn't be able to detect anything wrong?

 …It’s really tempting to commit a crime.

 …

As Koizumi Hongzi fell into deep thought, the magic power she emitted temporarily solidified, and she stopped dragging Jiang Xia in her direction.

In order to avoid scaring away the magical Koizumi Hongzi, Jiang Xia had no choice but to hold back and not take the initiative to go there.

He just secretly dispersed the ghosts and asked them to grab some energy cores from the surroundings - the crows controlled by Koizumi Anko, the floating throne, and even the air here were all stained with some magic power. We are both masters of metaphysics, and even if we come here, it would be unreasonable to go home without bringing some magic power with us.

While the ghosts were busy, Jiang Xia hovered in the air and looked down inquiringly.

Through the crowd of crows in the sky, you can vaguely sense that there is an extremely huge source of magic power on the street nearly a hundred meters below.

That energy even projected through the sky, spanning hundreds of meters, all the way up from the ground to in front of him.

As long as he takes one more step forward, he will be able to step into the range of magic influence and be surrounded by energy cores...

While Jiang Xia was secretly sizing up the magic array.

Opposite him, Koizumi Anko leaned on the back of the throne, switching her legs from left to right, and gradually recovered from the shock of "there are real monsters in the world" and "the monsters are actually around me".

 At the same time, she also had some doubts about the prophecy of the magic mirror.

The magic mirror seemed to say, "All the men in the world will be the prisoners of Hongzi-sama", but the "Kid" she pulled in front of her looked a little different from human beings.

 … Could it be that the "person" mentioned in the magic mirror is just a general pronoun? After all, when the magic mirror told her "there is one exception", it deliberately placed the projection of that "exception" on the mirror. It was indeed Kaitou Kidd.

The magic mirror didn't even make it clearer...Tsk, let's go back and settle the score with it.

As for now, of course, we must concentrate on getting rid of the "exception" in front of us who refuses to bow under her skirt.

Hmm...According to her previous curse, Kiriten Dog should still be suffering from the pain of being hammered into his body by nails, and now, she is the only one who can relieve that pain.

After Kiriten Dog understands this, he will take the initiative to walk towards her → fall into the trap she arranged directly below → be burned by a large amount of magic power in the trap and endure this painful torture → in order to get rid of the pain, he can’t wait to eat what she prepared. Magic chocolate →become her prisoner…

 Thinking about the way Kuroba Kaito turned down her chocolate in the afternoon, and then thinking about the wonderful scene that was about to happen, Koizumi Anko covered her lips and let out a string of happy laughter.

She stood up, walked off the throne with her clothes floating, raised the mini-doll in her hand, looked at Jiang Xia, and said softly: "Do you want to get rid of that endless pain? Just come to me..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wutian Dog waved its wings and flew two meters forward silently, accurately stepping into the range of her magic circle.

 The carefully drawn magic circle captures the "prey" and is automatically triggered.

Jiang Xia was instantly enveloped in a spring of magic, fell into the magic circle at the intersection below, and disappeared in front of Koizumi Hongzi.

Opposite me, Koizumi Hongzi had just opened her arms and had just begun to say her confusing lines. In the blink of an eye, the person was gone.

She looked at the suddenly empty sky in front of her, and then at the foggy dog ​​that was falling towards the magic circle. Her bright red lips moved, and then closed silently, swallowing back the words she had not finished speaking, and fell into deep thought.

 …Although so far, the script has been exactly as she planned and went very smoothly.    But I always feel...

 A little too smooth?

  Could it be that the intensity of the curse was not controlled well and the pain was too strong?

Koizumi Hongzi was confused for a moment, her body drifted down, and then she fell into the magic circle.

 …

 There seems to be some exquisite isolation measures set up near the magic circle.

 The street, which should have been very busy with people coming and going, was deserted at this time.

Jiang Xia secretly glanced around and didn't look any further - as soon as he landed, he immediately felt a massive amount of magic pouring in from all around, as if falling into a huge hot spring pool.

He squinted his eyes comfortably and was briefly intoxicated.

 After regaining consciousness, Jiang Xia immediately released all the ghosts, and the shikigami also threw them out, helping to pick them up together.

 The moment the Leg-Splitting Shikigami was born, he was already a ghost with only the obsession of revenge.

 When the enemies are punished and their obsessions dissipate, they become basically a blank sheet of emotion.

However, although they have no thoughts and emotions, the shikigami still retain certain instincts - when they are thrown next to the energy core, they will also instinctively absorb these useful energies.

At that time, as long as the full Shikigami is returned to the mark on the heart with one click, the energy cores will be recovered along with it, which can greatly improve the efficiency of picking up energy cores.

  The energy core strengthens the ghosts relatively evenly—they will eventually return to the medium's seals uniformly, and then equally nourish all the ghosts owned by the medium, including shikigami.

Therefore, the energy core will not be eaten up by the leg-picking shikigami, and there is no need to worry that if this continues, all the ghost fetuses will be weak and weak, but a few too strong shikigami will be raised...

 …

  The speed and quality of the energy cores absorbed by the leg-sucking shikigami cannot keep up with the ghost fetuses, but they are numerous in number.

Koizumi Hongzi's magic circle perfectly separates Jiang Xia from the surrounding environment. Shikigami can't get out even if they crawl around, and they won't run away and waste their murderous energy. It's a perfect place for ghosts to wander around.

 Experiencing the rapid influx of energy cores into the seal, Jiang Xia suddenly felt a little regretful when he looked up and saw Koizumi Hongzi falling slowly.

If you could have guessed earlier that magic power can be used as an energy core, you would have gone to Koizumi Anko earlier and collected more waves of magic power.

Now, his puppet brothers may be able to run around to help with soy sauce, and he doesn't have to be forced to hang up every time he starts the puppet like now...

 …

Koizumi Hongzi’s hair was flying, wrapped in magic power, and slowly landed on the other end of the magic circle.

 She saw Wutian Dog frowning slightly, seeming a little regretful, and nodded secretly in her heart.

 The curse is indeed useful. Now, Wutian Dog should no longer reject her...

With this in mind, Koizumi Anko took out the finale prop that she carefully made.

It was a heart-shaped chocolate as big as a palm, and it was wrapped in red strawberry paint. She did it several times according to the tutorial that she asked the servant to look up before she succeeded.
