Chapter 503

This is indeed a hotel where you can stay without ID, the environment is really nothing.

　　Fortunately, Ryuji's journey to save the world has encountered a harsher environment, which is unacceptable.

　　After a rushed night, Mikiya arrives on time the next morning.

　　"Morning Hyakki-kun." The kind-hearted boy greeted Ryuji.

　　Since this kind of hotel didn't provide breakfast, he bought breakfast for Ryuji with his own money.

　　"Morning, Kokuto," Ryuji yawned and answered politely.

　　"Is Hyakki-kun not used to sleeping?" Mikiya also asked.

　　"Fortunately, the main reason is that I don't have the habit of getting up at 7:10 in the morning."

　　There's no such thing as an early riser in holiday life, this was a truth that Ryuji adhered to.

　　"Hyakki-kun is still a student, so don't be too lazy even in summer vacation." Mikiya said concernedly.

　　This man was so kind, even someone like Ryuji who hated good people couldn't hate it.

　　"Kokuto is a student?" Ryuji asked curiously.

　　Mikiya also nodded, "That's right, I'll be a college student from next semester!"

　　"Then do your best." Ryuji gave a symbolic encouragement.

　　"Hyakki-kun, what ideal university do you have?"

　　The topics of the two gradually diverged, and were inexplicably related to their studies.

　　Ryuji took a sip of soy milk and couldn't help but say, "I didn't hire you to be a volunteer guide."

　　Mikiya also realized that she was being too nosy, showing a coy smile.

　　"Sorry, because I have a younger sister studying with me at home, so I subconsciously wanted to preach."

　　Seeing his expression, Ryuji was too embarrassed to scold him, and quickly finished his breakfast, saying that he said: "Let's go."

　　The two of them leave for the city hospital where Shiki is being held.

　　Ryogi's family are the local rich, and the hospital Shiki is in is also the best in Mifune City.

　　On the way, Mikiya also told Ryuji the information he gathered.

　　"Hyakki-kun, I checked yesterday about someone named Araya Souren. There's only one person with this name in all of Mifune City, and he happens to work at the hospital where Ryogi-san is."

　　Mikiya's words surprised Ryuji.

　　On one hand, he was surprised by the information gathering speed, and on the other hand, he was also surprised that Araya Souren was beside Shiki.

　　"It has to be intentional." Ryuji thought to himself.

　　Araya Souren's goal now is to chase after finding roots, so he will stay by Shiki's side.

　　But why didn't he take the girl away during the hospitalization?

　　[Wisdom of Dún Scáith] was activated, and Ryuji obtained the ability "Super reasoning".

　　The reason Araya Soren didn't do it for a long time... Because the current Shiki couldn't reach the 'root' he wanted!

　　Ryuji thought about it, it seems that 'root' has a triggering condition, at least Shiki is in a coma!

　　"This is really very helpful, Kokuto," Ryuji said.

　　"I'm still guilty of charging so much money because the work is too simple." Mikiya also said, as if exchanging some of the money with Ryuji.

　　Money was becoming increasingly worthless, so in 1997, 10,000 yen was not a small amount.

　　"No need, I don't have the habit of taking back the money I give." Ryuji acts like a rich man's son.

　　"Besides, I might still need your help in the future, so this small amount of money should be the cost..."

　　Mikiya also hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

　　The two come to the hospital where Shiki is being treated.

　　At the entrance of the hospital, Ryuji narrowed his eyes.

　　"...It's a barrier." Ryuji thought to himself.

　　Araya Souren was 300 years old, right, Ryuji remembered that Alaya had said that this monk was very proficient in Bounded Field.

　　This was a perception barrier, used to distinguish ordinary humans from Magus.

　　Somewhat similar to the one on the Clock Tower side, when a being with magical powers entered this hospital, Araya Soren would immediately feel it.

　　"He was very careful." Ryuuji sighed.

　　"What did Hyakki-kun just say?" Mikiya didn't hear clearly either.

　　"It's fine, come on in." Ryuji smiled and stepped straight into the enchantment's range.

　　At the office, Araya Soren didn't wear a white coat, but all black.

　　Hospitals have always given privileges to capable doctors, including not wearing a white coat.

　　Over the past year, Araya Soren had treated many patients with his inexperienced healing Magecraft, and had a high reputation in this hospital.

　　At this time, he raised his head and looked out the window, as if he had noticed something.

　　"...Is it an illusion?" Araya Soren said in a low voice.

　　Someone has just entered this hospital, but there is no magic power fluctuation.

　　Araya Soren was very confident in his Magecraft technique, so no Magus should ever barge in.

　　Just like that, Ryuji stepped into the BOSS fortress, and watched Shiki.
