"Natsuki-kun, have you ever been to Yokohama?"

Fujiwara Chika skipped lightly, stepping on the white lines on the street and happily walking forward, like a little deer in the morning sun in the forest.

"No, I haven't." Amamiya Natsuki shook his head.

"I have!" Fujiwara Chika lifted her chin, revealing a long, fair neck, and said with a slight hint of pride, "Yokohama has a food street with lots of delicious cuisine. Shall we go eat together then?"

The matter hasn't even been settled yet, and you're already thinking about eating. You really are a foodie, aren't you!

Amamiya Natsuki said helplessly, "I remember you said before that your family has a curfew, right? Is it really okay if you come home late?"

"It's fine, Mom says I have to be home before nine o'clock." Fujiwara Chika said with a clear voice, "We can eat until eight in the evening..."

Before she could finish, the pink-haired bow-wearing girl suddenly hid behind Amamiya Natsuki, nervously clutching his sleeve.

"Evil Spirits, huge Evil Spirits!"

Amamiya Natsuki followed her gaze and looked into the nearby alley.

To ordinary people, the alley was empty and quiet.

But in the eyes of Amamiya Natsuki and Fujiwara Chika, the alley opposite was full of Evil Spirits, big and small, at least a dozen of them.

The largest Evil Spirit was three or four meters tall, with fangs and horns on its head, and it was even stuffing smaller Evil Spirits into its mouth.

The Evil Spirit opposite seemed to sense something, and its pair of crimson eyes suddenly looked over.

Amamiya Natsuki silently averted his gaze, took Fujiwara Chika's right hand, and pulled the girl forward: "Hurry up."

The two quickly walked past the alley. Only after confirming that the Evil Spirits hadn't followed them did Fujiwara Chika sigh in relief, patting her chest and whispering, "That scared me to death just now."

"There are so many Evil Spirits in the real world, and they come in all sorts of strange varieties. Yesterday, I even saw an Evil Spirit that was only ankle-high and looked like a little old man. It would get scared and hide when it saw people."

"And also, dogs seem to be able to see strange things too. The other day when I was walking Pace, he barked at an Evil Spirit in the Park. It was so scary."

You talk so much, I can't tell where you're scared at all!

Talking all the way, the two quickly arrived at the subway station.

At the subway station's ticket gate, two Evil Spirits dressed in subway staff uniforms stood one on each side, watching the pedestrians with their hollow, black eyes.

As expected of good Japanese corporate slaves.

Even after becoming Evil Spirits, they haven't forgotten to go to work. The corporate slave attribute has deeply permeated their bones!

Fujiwara Chika lowered her head, nervously leaning close to Amamiya Natsuki, and whispered in his ear, "Natsuki-kun."

"Hmm?"

"Quickly use your invincible Spirits Begone. The Evil Spirits at the subway station's ticket gate are too dangerous. What if a player is an Office worker, and on their way home from work, they accidentally reveal that they can see them? It would surely be despairing, right?"

Amamiya Natsuki lightly twitched the corner of his mouth and silently activated the Spirits Begone Aura.

Flames immediately ignited on the two Evil Spirit staff members, and they dissipated into nothingness amidst hollow, ethereal wails.

To think of players you've never met, no wonder you're the light of humanity.

There weren't many passengers on the subway in the afternoon.

Amamiya Natsuki chose an empty seat, and he and Fujiwara Chika sat down.

After entering the subway, Fujiwara Chika immediately quieted down, clearly adhering to the unspoken rule of "no talking on the subway."

The pink-haired girl played on her phone for a while, then quickly yawned, her small head starting to nod off.

"If you're sleepy, you can sleep for a bit." Amamiya Natsuki whispered, "I'll wake you up when we get to Yokohama."

Including Miko, all players who could see Evil Spirits had dark circles under their eyes to some extent.

Fujiwara Chika was no exception, clearly not getting enough rest normally.

The pink-haired girl blinked, seemingly trying to stay awake, but in the end, she couldn't hold on and fell asleep in a daze, her body swaying before finally leaning on Amamiya Natsuki's shoulder.

Amamiya Natsuki glanced at the pink-haired girl's sweet sleeping face, then looked away and continued playing on his phone.

No words were exchanged along the way.

The subway quickly arrived in Yokohama.

"Fujiwara, wake up." Amamiya Natsuki woke the pink-haired girl, "It's time to get off."

Fujiwara Chika groggily opened her eyes, her deep blue eyes, as blue as the sky, staring blankly, clearly still a bit disoriented from just waking up.

"Wipe your drool." Amamiya Natsuki reminded her, "It's time to get off."

"Oh..."

Fujiwara Chika raised her hand to wipe the corner of her mouth and quickly sobered up: "You're lying, I didn't drool at all!"

"If you keep sleeping, it really will start to drool."

"..."

The two exited the subway, opened their phone navigation, and walked all the way to the entrance of Yokohama High School.

Amamiya Natsuki looked into the distance and saw a ponytail girl standing at the school gate, eagerly looking out. It was Kujou Asuka, the girl who had clung to him in the game yesterday.

"Chika-chan!"

Seeing Amamiya Natsuki and Fujiwara Chika, Kujou Asuka happily came to greet them, calling Fujiwara Chika by her name. When it was Amamiya Natsuki's turn, she respectfully called out, "Good afternoon, Senpai."

"Don't call me Senpai." Amamiya Natsuki said speechlessly, "You're a second-year student, aren't you?"

Don't you blush calling a first-year student 'Senpai'!

"Asuka, don't be so nervous. We're partners who entrust our backs to each other." Fujiwara Chika said from the side, "Just call him Natsuki, like me."

"Cough cough."

Kujou Asuka lightly coughed twice, not daring to call him that casually.

Entrusting her back? Not at all. She basically clung to him the whole time and didn't help much. In the end, she was completely clueless, and the game was cleared by the big shot.

Amamiya Natsuki changed the subject, "Kujo, where's your friend?"

"She's training in the gym." Kujou Asuka quickly said, "We can see her if we go over there."

"Then let's go."

Following behind the ponytail girl, Amamiya Natsuki arrived at the gymnasium, where several girls were sweating profusely, practicing volleyball.

Amamiya Natsuki's gaze sharpened, and he quickly found Kujo's friend, as there was only one girl in the crowd entangled by Evil Spirits.

"There are actually several Evil Spirits," Fujiwara Chika whispered, her eyes wide. "It's so scary."

There were several Evil Spirits clinging to the girl, all appearing to be middle-aged men. Some Evil Spirits were embracing the girl's waist, while others were strangling her neck, making one's eyes twitch.

"It is indeed a bit scary." Kujou Asuka bit her lower lip. "I don't even dare to participate in club training now; I can only say I'm feeling unwell."

Looking up and seeing her friend covered in Evil Spirits, she couldn't train with peace of mind.

"Why is your friend entangled by Evil Spirits?" Fujiwara Chika asked, puzzled.

Kujou Asuka bit her lower lip and remained silent.

"Don't ask," Amamiya Natsuki said softly. "It has nothing to do with us."

After a week of observation, Evil Spirits in reality either wandered around or clung to someone.

The uncle Evil Spirits clinging to the girl clearly had a deep obsession with her.

Like 'Papa Katsu' (compensated dating).

Or the 'God-waiting girls' who drifted from Hokkaido all the way to Tokyo.

In short, it was other people's privacy, and Amamiya Natsuki had no desire or interest in prying.

The Spirits Begone Aura activated, and the Evil Spirits entwined around the girl reluctantly vanished amidst their wails.

Kujou Asuka breathed a sigh of relief, her gaze towards Amamiya Natsuki growing even more reverent.

Amamiya Natsuki was the first person capable of eliminating Evil Spirits in reality!

Although she hadn't encountered other players in reality… In any case, a big shot is a big shot, and she would firmly stick with him in the future!

The matter was resolved.

Kujou Asuka enthusiastically invited them both to eat in Chinatown.

Amamiya Natsuki didn't refuse; it was still early. He followed behind the two girls, eating and drinking along the way.

7:30 PM.

The two bid farewell to the ponytail girl and took the subway back to Tokyo.

"This food is the best in the world," Fujiwara Chika said, covering her stomach, utterly satisfied. "Super delicious!"

Amamiya Natsuki nodded in agreement: "It was indeed very good."

"If it could just stay like this, never entering the game again, never seeing Evil Spirits, life would be perfect," Fujiwara Chika sighed.

Life is so easily perfect for you; you're too easily satisfied!

So many people are waiting for you to become the first female prime minister!

The next moment.

Amamiya Natsuki suddenly felt his vision blur for a second. The crowded subway instantly became deserted, and the lighting turned cold and pale.

Then, a familiar chilling voice resounded in his mind.

"Special instance dungeon 'Midnight Subway' has been triggered. Wishing all players a pleasant game."

Amamiya Natsuki silently looked at the pink-haired girl: "…Jinx!"
