**********

In the lab where Ryushi was being experimented on, both he and Yuki were currently experiencing the unique wonders of dimensional link!

Ryushi was extremely curious about the unique power that Yuki held so he decided to use this opportunity to study this power out of sheer curiosity for the unknown, yet he only found overwhelming shock awaiting him as saw a vision of a calm looking Yuki staring back at him with a distant look in his eerie green eyes different from his usual chaotic one.

He saw a strange orb hovering over his head and emitting a gentle light that covered Yuki's body like the warm embrace of a mother, and an even weirder light hiding deep in his heart that had a terrifying feel to it.

In his stomach, he saw two swirling masses, one purple-black, and the other one silver-white in color and they seemed to take the shape of a man and a woman that would stare at him from time to time coldly while remaining in a constant clash against each other.

'What the hell is all of this? Did Yuki trick me and made me hallucinate somehow despite my new evolved body?' Wondered Ryushi, but then a terrible chill like he never felt before emerged from the bottom of his heart as two pairs of giant unhuman eyes opened up in the space behind Yuki and analyzed him coldly before they turned their attention to everything he found weird about Yuki, especially the orb that was hovering above him before they eventually closed again and disappeared into thin air…

'This kid's hiding far more secrets than I have ever imagined' thought Ryushi feeling that his back was still a bit cold and sweaty from the pressure of that pair of eyes as he felt like a small ant in front of it...

Meanwhile, in a similar situation, Yuki was experiencing his own weirdness as he stared at Ryushi's eerily calm figure standing in front of him, but at least he was used to this so it didn't take him by surprise..;

'So, this is his true nature huh?' Yuki stared silently at the pile of dead bodies and rivers of blood that Ryushi stood on top of calmly, yet there was no spot of blood or dirtiness in his clothes.

He also noticed weird tentacles coming out of his brain and moving around his body as if studying everything around him curiously, while his brain in itself was shining with a weird luster which he concluded was a sign of his inhuman intelligence…

But all of this was nothing compared to the weird dark aura covering his heart like a curse, although he could see a weird light emerging from his own body that kept weakening that aura, and he could also see another light hitting that cursed aura, although he couldn't see the source of it but he was able to guess who it was coming from...

'It seems like Aguri's efforts and mine to change him are working, however minuscule they might be…' thought Yuki before he shot this true version of Ryushi one last look and the vision suddenly stopped as a notification appeared in front of him

[Congratulations host on successfully establishing a dimensional link with Ryushi Korogane and you can now apply all the functions of the dimensional link on him]

Yuki nodded silently at the notification causing it to disappear automatically before he turned his attention to Ryushi and asked with a smile "Do you trust me now?"

"I'm not sure if I should trust you or doubt you after the strange things I saw" Replied Ryushi with his usual faint smile and Yuki instantly retorted "At least I wasn't standing on a pile of bodies you creepy bastard"

"I guess that's fair to say" He replied while pretending to put on a thoughtful expression which made Yuki's hand itch to smash him in the face but he held himself back and said seriously " That woman isn't here today, but I suggest you go find her soon and become a teacher with her, that will help you conquer your weakness, your heart… Meanwhile, I'm going to destroy these labs"

Ryushi froze slightly before he said "Are you sure you can take care of the irregularities in my body?"

Yuki nodded calmly before he suddenly said "Oh, by the way, they will probably put the blame of the destruction of these labs on your head, so use it as a chip to bargain with the government, you can also use your self-destruction as a threat"

"What are you planning?" Asked Ryushi with narrowed eyes, but Yuki smiled awkwardly and said "Believe me, some things are unavoidable" and he didn't elaborate more. Still, only he knew how the system didn't give missions without a reason. If it granted him a task to join Ryushi's class and try to assassinate him, it meant that it will do it one way or another, and he was correct because that same day, countless news channels started reporting the same thing…

One of Mars's moons 'Phobos' was destroyed by an unknown explosion, but the research labs working on generating the dark matter were aware that it was one of their research subjects, yet they decided to blame it on the special research subject that escaped from their Japan branch lab that was recently destroyed, and the main suspect was him, Ryushi…

Yuki watched the news silently, he couldn't believe that the situation would develop this way even though he stopped the explosion on earth's moon.

'It seems like the system can always find a way to force its quests… But were they predetermined? Or did it change reality itself to accommodate them?' Yuki was genuinely perplexed by the power of his system, and not long after, Ryushi started to communicate with him about how he approached the government and proposed a deal with them…

"None of this is of concern to me anymore, I will just join the class he's going to teach once the summer break ends and that's all there's to it…that girl is now safe, and I made sure to remove any threats so all that remains is completely changing Ryushi, but those students will do the work just fine"

"What are you muttering to yourself?" Asked Shizue curiously as she entered Yuki's room and the latter simply smiled and said " Nothing, just wondering what caused that explosion"

"Wondering huh?" Shizue shot him a helpless look before she shook her head and said "let's have dinner, today it was Suzuno who cooked and she seemed in a good mood so hopefully it will be reflected on the food"

Yuki nodded at her and thought 'I just hope she doesn't poison Maou's and Ashiya's portion, but did something happen to put that girl in a good mood?' wondered Yuki who didn't know about the incident that happened between Mashiro and Suzuno…

After dinner, Yuki began to make his way to the underground arena while thinking about the lab he destroyed and the dark matter he gathered 'The whole quantity that was produced in the lab was only ¼ of the amount required for my basic space affinity to evolve… Guess I will go raid the rest of the labs soon, but now I need to focus on dealing with my 46th opponent…'

Yuki recalled all the details of the man he was going to fight, he even enlisted Izaya's help to gather more information about him yet he still failed to find anything of relevance regarding his opponent other than the fact that his name was Fuji.

However, as he wore a mask similar to how Yuki wears one as well, it was hard to find his true identity, but Yuki wasn't planning to underestimate him at all since he was one of the few people that only rose recently similar to him so the limit of his power wasn't tested yet!

"It seems like the challenge of this quest is finally starting" muttered Yuki calmly before he stopped in front of the huge gates of the arena and smirked "Bring it on!"

It didn't take long for the announcer to start the introduction for both him and his opponents, and the crowd kept roaring the whole time…

"Ladies and gentlemen, in today's main fight, we have the destroyer Yuki with a record of 45-0, and facing him is the rising star, devil fist Fuji! Whose record is also a terrifying 36-0… ARE YOU READY FOR CARNAGE???"

"YEAAA x ????" Cheered the crowd

Meanwhile, Yuki simply shrugged and thought 'I'm glad I convinced them to change my nickname, otherwise it would have been embarrassing to face someone nicknamed devil fist…'

As Yuki was thinking useless thoughts, his opponent had a frown on his face as he muttered "I wish there was a way to enjoy good fights without needing to be annoyed with all this useless noise" muttered Fuji with a helpless look on his face and he didn't seem worried at all about his next opponents as a devilish voice whispered in his ears.

"You chose to follow your desire to seek strong opponents and I commend you for it, but you shouldn't underestimate your opponent this time, I have a weird feeling whenever I watch him fight.."

Fuji wasn't surprised by the voice whispering in his ears and calmly replied "Oh, it seems like he's truly something if he can actually make you this warry of him, guess it's worth it to withstand all this annoying noise"

Fuji smiled calmly under his mask, and seeing his confidence, the voice didn't speak to him again, and after hearing his name being called to the ring, he made his way out only to be greeted by a pair of eerie green eyes, but he noticed that they were fixated on his mask that had the image of a devil more than in him personally and he couldn't help but wonder 'What's with this guy? can he actually see the value of this mask? Interesting...'

Meanwhile, Yuki's eyes almost spilled with greed as his mind was overwhelmed with only one thought 'That mask is a treasure, I guess this is why no information could be found about this guy, I want it!

Feeling creeped out and insulted by his opponent's disregard, Fuji instantly rushed at him once the match started and was planning to end the fight with one punch 'Tch, what a waste of my time, he's just a greedy idiot'

But he soon felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart as Yuki's green eyes shined with a weird light and he dodged that attack easily before he retaliated with his ultimate skill "Nut destruction!"

"LETTTTT'SSS GOOO!"

"Yuki landed his famous move!"

The crowd roared and cheered, while Fuji froze slightly as he felt pain, something he didn't feel in a long time, but to Yuki's surprise, his opponent didn't fall as he expected, instead he attacked him even more fiercely and he could tell from the strong air generated from his punches that they could have sent a car flying easily with them…

'This guy is unhuman, where the hell did he come from' wondered Yuki as a weird smile emerged under his kitty mask, he finally found a fun opponent!
