The Hero Who Returned Remains the Strongest in the Modern World - Chapter 7

Chapter 7

“Fast!”

Isn’t she a bit too fast.

What kind of special ability you need to have to send that fast!?

And I opened the mail.

“Skill: Deadly Curse Resistance (Intermediate) has activated.”

【Skill：Deadly Curse Resistance（Intermediate）has activated】

You!

You’re activating a dangerous skill once again?

However, hasn’t the skill got stronger than the one earlier?

God’s voice truly turned into an old junk.

Leaving that, I’m interested in the contents of the mail…

“I have no intentions to answer your questions. Then are you related by blood to historical people like Oda Nobunaga, Taira no Masakado or Amakusa Shiro?”

Saying I won’t answer your questions…

I was a bit annoyed.

Rather, since earlier it’s questions only about my blood connections… That might be the troubles of a lady from a prestigious family.

We’re emailing to each other so wouldn’t it be a bit better if you could listen to my questions?

“Didn’t I say this morning that I just wanted to be your friend? I just genuinely want to get close to you. I’m just getting probed a bit too much… I also have my own intentions, you know? Please consider.”

Okay, send.

And.

I was thinking that the mail would come again like Mach speed but it never came. And 3 hours have passed since the last reply.

“Aah, what should I do if Abeno-senpai has gotten angry…?”

I collapsed on the bed and was kicking the bed with my both feet.

Side: Abeno Kaguya

My name is Abeno Kaguya.

Publicly my family is masters of Shinto but it has another face in secrecy.

Putting it simply… I’m from a family of exorcists.

We’ve been hunting the evil spirits wringing in Japan’s darkness with the occasional help from the ministers, that sort of feeling it has.

By the way, even if I say it so myself, I’m classified as an outstanding power amongst the teens.

Leaving that aside, I met a very strange male student this morning.

I can understand when others have powers when we look at each other’s eyes.

I know intuitively whether one has magical power or not in their eyes because no matter the age or country the starting point of it was the eyes.

And, that male student’s whole body had a feeble magical power or something… He had an aura I couldn’t understand well.

But, he had almost zilch magical power in his eyes.

I don’t know whether he’s an enemy, and some kind of disturbing element I can’t understand… with that being said I’ve concluded that such a person can’t be left alone.

That being said, attacking all of a sudden is odd, so I should gather information by interacting with him.

Night, half past 8 o’clock.

A mail has reached me who was preparing for war in a 40 tatami room.

I used physical ability and reflexes strengthening techniques.

I typed the email’s text at an unprecedented speed and simultaneously arranged electromagnetic shikigami to be sent through the phone’s interior.

Right now, the shikigami I was using currently were shikigami produced for modern times.

Their primary usage is to spy amateurs.

It will coil itself behind the target’s back and then it will send information this way.

“Attach the shikigami to the mail and send.”

Several blinks later, I was speechless.

“The shikigami… were eradicated?”

Even if they’re for spying, they are shikigami from the Abeno family.

They should be able to easily break through protective barriers…

They got eradicated even before they could send information about the situation?

“It seems I had been underestimating him…”

The form he had shown me today… Probably had been a bluff.

I’ve been naive when I’ve concluded he was a superhero amateur who didn’t know of the world’s darkness…

Even if I wasn’t serious to have my shikigami erased instantly, means his power must be extraordinary.

I took out tokens from the drawers.

And then I assembled the five tokens in a pentagram formation.

Fufu, preparation is everything here, you know?

“I’ll be going all out.”

This time it’s not the usual scouting ones but empowered ones.

I’ll send high grade shinigamis which should never be used by an average exorcist to him.

Then he returned my email at the same time I typed an email with high speed and placed the shikigami in it and sent the email.

A moment later

The shikigami were eradicated again!?

I was standing still at being surprised from what has occurred.

My own produced high grade shikigami… in an instant… were done in like the firefly’s in summer…

I don’t know even if the family’s head can do it like that.

What…

“A practitioner… like me… but totally different roles!”

And his email came at that time.

“Didn’t I say this morning that I just wanted to be your friend? I just genuinely want to get close to you. I’m just getting probed a bit too much… I also have my own intentions, you know? Please consider.”

I was seriously reflecting.

I couldn’t help but feel miserable for me who was fixated upon that he was an amateur and without enough information all of sudden I sent shikigami to him.

I shivered at one line in his mail.

No matter how you look at it, It seems I’ve earned his ire.

“I also have my own intentions, you know?”

What kind of intentions does he have.

If he’s going to retaliate then just myself am no match for him.

I’ll need to appeal to the family even if it was done badly.

Thinking what’ll happen from now my body became cold from the head.

With a pale face I sank on the floor and stayed still.
