Chapter 240: I Will Also Give Him a Spiral Too (Bonus)

Shinji and Touko had just left when another black car stopped in front of the apartment's main entrance. A beautiful young girl stepped out of the car. She was dressed in what appeared to be a uniform worn by nuns, simple yet reminiscent of the elegant designs of formal evening gowns. It was the uniform of Reigarden Girls' Academy, a well-known prestigious girls' school among noble circles. Rumor had it that it was quite famous in certain industries associated with the red light district.

Of course, this young girl had no connection to such industries. She was a true lady, possessing both virtue and beauty. Her demeanor as she got out of the car was poised and dignified, embodying the grace of a Western aristocrat and the elegance of a Japanese Yamato Nadeshiko.

The girl had a pair of extraordinary eyes. Normally, they were a beautiful shade of red, resembling exquisite wine produced by a Bordeaux vineyard. However, under special circumstances, these eyes underwent a marvelous transformation. The magnificent wine-red color would turn into an orange hue, and near the pupils, a green light would appear, giving the impression of a mysterious gem radiating with enchanting colors.

Currently, the girl was in such a state, using her unique eyes to survey the round-shaped apartment building from bottom to top.

"Miss Asakami, how is it?" The driver's side window rolled down, revealing the face of a young man, a mix of anxiety and unease.

"Mr. Mikiya, please rest assured. I have located Miss Shiki." The girl turned her head and nodded at the young man.

The young man behind the wheel was named Mikiya Kokutou. He had recently obtained his driver's license and rushed over with a group of unusual friends upon receiving news of Shiki's danger. Now, he observed Asakami Fujino, the girl with Mystic Eyes, using her peculiar gaze to scrutinize the Ogawa Apartments.

Asakami Fujino, the wielder of the Mystic Eyes ability, possessed the power to distort objects within her field of vision with just her eyes. After training and development under Touko Aozaki, Fujino's Mystic Eyes had awakened new abilities—far-sight and X-ray vision, which she was currently using.

A mysterious red and green radiance surpassed physical limitations and projected a bizarre world onto Fujino's retina. In the center of this world stood a girl wearing a white kimono, her eyes tightly shut, seemingly in a state of unconsciousness.

"The western tower of the apartment, middle section, tenth floor. There's a different world set up there, and Miss Shiki is inside."

"I'm counting on you, Miss Fujou and Miss Justeaze." Ganya immediately turned around and bowed his head to the two women in the backseat.

The girl with typical black hair and a slender figure nodded gently, and an identical shadow of hers appeared directly above the car, roughly aligned with the tenth floor. She was Kirie Fujou, the wielder of the ability "Dual Existence."

The other woman, with long silver hair and a tall, voluptuous figure, closed her eyes. Golden and pure white particles emanated from her body, coalescing into a tangible form in mid-air, merging with the shadow of the Eastern girl. She was Justeaze Von Einsbern, the imperfect wielder of the Third Magic.

At the same time, the red and green radiance in Fujino's eyes began to deform, forming a spiral pattern with one red and one green band swirling around her pupils.

"Distort, distort, distort—"

Accompanied by Fujino's low chant, the spiral in her eyes started to rotate. The left eye rotated counterclockwise, while the right eye rotated clockwise, with the axis being the central axis of the Ogawa Apartments, separating the east and west towers, the boundaries of light and shadow.

The circular apartment building shook violently, and the once straight central axis twisted into an S-shape, aligning the structure of the building with the Taiji diagram. The separation between yin and yang formed a smooth S-shaped curve, resembling the symbol of the yin-yang fish.

However, it was only a momentary occurrence. In the next instant, the extreme rotational force shattered the Taiji diagram, blurring the boundaries between east and west, light and shadow, life and death, mixing and merging them.

This was the power of Fujino's Mystic eyes, worthy of being designated for "sealing." It was classified as the "Distortion Mystic Eye" at the level of "Rainbow" according to the Clock Tower's classification system.

The Clock Tower categorized Mystic Eye into five levels: the lowest level being artificially created Mystic Eyes, followed by naturally occurring Mystic Eyes.

First is the "Noble Color," which generally represents abilities such as "restraint," "enforcement," "contract," "flame," "illusion," and "misfortune." It possesses the privilege to intervene in the destinies of others, and many magus believe that only those who have reached this level can truly be called Mystic Eyes.

Beyond the usual Noble Color, there is the more advanced and powerful "Golden" level, which often contains grand magic lost to modern times.

Further up, there exist Mystic Eyes classified as "Gem." At this level, the Mystic Eyes may even harbor mysteries surpassing grand magic—secrets that cannot be replicated by any magic throughout history. Therefore, many people doubt the existence of this level. Even if they exist, they are secretly held by a lord who leads a faction.

Finally, there is the legendary level known as the "Rainbow." Just the name alone instills fear in many modern magus. Medusa, the Gorgon, possesses the Mystic Eye of Petrification "Cybele," Shiki Ryougi possesses the "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception," and Fujino possesses the "Mystic Eyes of Distortion." They all belong to this level.

The more powerful the ability, the greater the corresponding risks and costs. The Mystic Eyes, regarded as the miraculous creation of the gods, are no exception.

Fujino's eyes, which underwent such a massive rotation, caused intense pain. The nerves and brain connected to her eyes felt as if they were being melted by the scorching heat.

This was an extraordinary pain, one that ordinary people would find unbearable. The average person might scream due to the pain, and those with weaker endurance might cry.

However, Fujino was different. Despite her long hair being dampened by cold sweat and her face pale, she showed no signs of pain. The corners of her mouth lifted upward, her delicate eyebrows slightly raised. Amidst her rapid breathing, the moans that escaped her were not of agony but of joy—she was laughing.

One cannot truly appreciate the significance of pain until they have experienced it. Only in moments of pain could Fujino truly feel her existence.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts—"

"I'm still alive. I'm here. He needs me."

"Twist everything!"

The panoramic view of the lobby and underground parking lot of the apartment complex appeared in Fujino's mind, and she proceeded to distort it entirely.

A thunderous roar echoed, as if lightning had struck. The sound of steel beams reaching their breaking point filled the air, and ceilings collapsed in various locations.

Shinji, who was hiding in the car alongside Touko, snapped his fingers at the crumbling circular structure.

"Souren Araya wants to create a Spiral of Paradox, right? Well, I'll give him a spiral too."
