Chapter 241 Another Agito
An argument broke out among several people in the room.
If the person who respects Kino Fumio the most is Mashima Koji, then the person who trusts him the most is Sagara Katsuhiko.
So there was no doubt that Tomoko Miura was jointly reprimanded by these two people. Their words basically implied that she was betraying her trust by suspecting Kaoru Kino just because of an outsider whom she had only met for two days.
Tomoko Miura was a little helpless, but her personality prevented her from making a scene, so she could only try her best to express that she had no ill intentions.
After putting away the glass, Ju Chun sat quietly by the side, looking up and down at his open palm, as if there was something incredible attached to it.
Koji Mashima suddenly exploded at this time.
"Enough! In fact, you and Sakaki Aki found someone more powerful who can protect you, so you plan to part ways with us ordinary people, right!" Mashima Koji said angrily with his face flushed.
Tomoko Miura looked at him in some surprise.
However, since he was the youngest, everyone on the Rising Sun basically treated him as a junior, so now Tomoko Miura looked at him as if she was looking at a unreasonable child.
"If I really wanted to cut off ties with everyone, I wouldn't be here today. I said all this just to plan more for everyone's future." Tomoko Miura sighed.
As a result, her words seemed to touch upon something. Mashima Koji's expression suddenly changed and he became full of resentment.
"Stop being so self-righteous!"
When he suddenly roared, the furnishings on the table and cabinets also shook.
All four of them paused for a moment, then looked around with different expressions. Just then, a desk lamp on the cabinet staggered and fell down.
Mashima Koji was no longer angry, and looked at his hands in amazement: "Am I... awakened too?"
When he was trying to use his superpowers in doubt, Katsuhiko Sagara next to him suddenly looked down at him with a slightly strange expression.
Because among the four people present now, it seems that he is the only one who has not awakened superpowers.
In fact, Koji Mashima also looked forward to obtaining super powers, but after actually possessing this power, he didn't know what to do with it.
It's impossible to fight with your own people, right?
at this time……
There were two gentle knocks on the half-open apartment door, and then a calm and composed man in a black suit pushed the door open and walked in.
"Everyone, long time no see. I think I heard what you were arguing about just now?" the man said in a gentle voice.
"Mr. Kino!"
Koji Mashima looked towards the door in surprise.
Then he raised his hand and ran over and said, "Mr. Kino, you came just in time. I seem to have awakened superpowers just now!"
After he finished speaking, Kino Kaoru, who was standing at the door, seemed to pause for a moment, then slowly raised his hand and took off the sunglasses that were still on his face.
Without his sunglasses, Kino Kaoru looked more gentle and steady. Although he had a smile on his face, his deep eyes seemed particularly dull.
"yours……"
Kino Xun stared at him: "Superpower?"
Koji Mashima nodded excitedly like a chicken pecking at rice, then turned his head to look for something to verify. He raised his hand and controlled a desk lamp that was lying on the cupboard to float up.
But he only controlled it for a short while, and the lamp fell back again, but this was enough to prove it.
"Great! Mr. Kino, from now on I can protect everyone with you!"
"..."
There was no response from Kino Kaoru at the door.
The three people sitting on the sofa had also stood up. Just looking at the figure over there, Miura Tomoko felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in her heart.
Tachibana Junya came back to his senses from his trance and looked over.
Kino Fumio's figure was mostly blocked by Mashima Koji standing in front of him, and everyone could not see his appearance clearly. However, after a moment of silence in the room, he suddenly raised his hand and patted Mashima Koji on the shoulder.
The same gentle and mellow voice sounded: "That's great, Koji, it seems that you have a good talent!"
Mashima Koji smiled wider after receiving the affirmation.
Miura Tomoko's heart slowly calmed down, and she felt that her previous nervousness might have been unnecessary.
Katsuhiko Sagara, the only one present who had not yet awakened his superpowers, looked over there, unable to tell whether he was envious or what, but he felt slightly relieved.
When they all relaxed, only Tachibana Jun frowned slightly, and then he withdrew his gaze when Kino Kaoru walked over from the door.
"By the way, what were you talking about just now?"
Kino Kaoru suddenly asked again.
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, the whole room fell inexplicably quiet.
Mashima Koji glanced at the sofa hesitantly. He didn't say anything, so Katsuhiko Sagara said, "We are talking about everyone awakening their superpowers."
Kino Xun's eyes moved: "...Everyone?"
Mashima Koji became excited again and said quickly: "Yes! Not only me, Miss Tachibana and Miss Miura have also awakened their superpowers!"
Hearing this, Kaoru Kino looked at Katsuhiko Sagara again, who shook his head: "I haven't awakened my power yet."
"That's it..."
Kino Fumio nodded and turned slightly.
At this time, Katsuhiko Sagara talked about the news brought by Tomoko Miura, including that Masumi Sekiya might have been possessed by the "monster" on the Ryokan.
But Kino Kaoru remained silent. He neither responded to them nor his expression changed when he turned his head to the side.
Seeing this, Katsuhiko Sagara asked tentatively, "Mr. Kino, the police have now announced the existence of people with superpowers. Does that mean there are actually many people like us? The two people who had contact with Aki Sakaki before seem to have cooperated with the police and organized a place called "Knight Academy"..."
He paused after he finished speaking, and seeing that the person with his back to them still did not respond, he turned and asked, "Should we continue to contact them?"
"Do not."
This time, Kino Kaoru responded quickly.
A slightly deep voice came: "Don't forget what the monster said at the beginning. If we reveal what happened on the Dawn, it will attack us. I can't let us fall into danger."
Hearing this, Katsuhiko Sagara lowered his head and said, "That's right..."
Mashima Koji said excitedly: "Mr. Kino, now we all have super powers, even if that monster really attacks us, we don't have to worry, right? I can help you protect everyone, I think I'm pretty good!"
His excitement after having superpowers eased a bit after he saw Kino Kaoru, but now when he mentioned that monster, the urge to try it out couldn't help but rise again.
Although he couldn't shatter a glass directly like Ju Jun did just now, he inexplicably felt that he was very powerful!
Koji Mashima couldn't help but attack the lamp again, and Kaoru Kino turned his head slightly to watch his movements.
However, this time the desk lamp did not move, but all the furniture and even the entire room began to shake slightly. Koji Mashima suddenly groaned in pain and raised his hand to touch his abdomen.
In the center of his waist and abdomen, a dazzling white light was faintly visible.
Seeing this, the crowd who were originally surprised by the changes around them immediately looked at him. The next moment, they saw a somewhat hideous illusory figure vaguely emerging from Mashima Koji's body.
"what?!"
Tomoko Miura exclaimed in a somewhat inappropriate manner.
Koji Mashima staggered back in unbearable pain, and the joy of gaining super powers just now dropped to freezing point in an instant.
He only felt that all the muscles and nerves in his body were throbbing, as if they were being torn and broken, or as if something was growing.
This kind of torture that felt like being tortured to death made him immediately stop wanting superpowers.
I never said awakening super powers would be so painful!
Koji Mashima was completely panicked: "Mr. Kino? What's wrong with me? What's going on with me? It hurts so much!" He leaned against the wall with cold sweat covering his glowing abdomen, but Kino Fumio just stared at him without moving, until Jun Tachibana came to him at some point.
Jun Tachibana raised his hand and touched his little head, and after a while, Koji Mashima felt that the pain that challenged his nerves disappeared.
He suddenly gasped for breath and was about to collapse, but was supported by Kino Kaoru in the next moment.
"Kouji, your situation seems to be different from ours. It's too dangerous. Come out with me." Kino Fumio said calmly.
"Mr. Kino?"
Mashima Koji looked at him blankly.
Katsuhiko Sagara said with a complicated expression: "Koji, you seemed to have turned into...Unknown just now."
When Koji Mashima heard this, his pupils trembled.
Kino Xun Chunchun comforted: "Don't worry, I will make you return to normal. You'd better not use your superpowers now."
Kaoru Kino is a doctor and the first person on the Rising Sun to gain superpowers. Since he said he had a way, almost no one present doubted it.
The two had been standing at the door before, and now Mashima Koji followed Kino Fumio out.
Miura Tomoko hesitated and lowered her head to think for a while: "The one just now... should be Agito, right?"
"What is Agito?"
Katsuhiko Sagara heard her mumbling.
Tomoko Miura explained: "The people in the Knight Academy said that we psychics have the opportunity to become Agito, not Mr. Ashihara, but the "Agito" who fought against Unknown! "
Katsuhiko Sagara frowned as if he didn't understand for a moment, but at this moment, Koji Mashima's panicked shouting suddenly came from the corridor outside.
Both of them looked over there in surprise, and Tachibana Jun, who was standing at the door, rushed out immediately!
At the corner of the stairs, the originally gentle and honest Kino Fumio's eyes turned fierce, his hands tightly pinching Mashima Koji's neck, and the expression on his face was complicated and distorted.
"Kino...Mr...."
Koji Mashima, who was pushed against the wall, made an uncomfortable sound and grabbed the other person's wrist to try to stop him.
"Why……"
"..."
"Why do you do this..."
"..."
Kino Fumio stared at him with rapid breathing, pain and murderous intent coexisting in his eyes. Then he suddenly loosened his hands, but before Mashima Koji could catch his breath, he grabbed him again!
Tachibana Jun's somewhat anxious voice came from the side - "Mr. Kino!"
Kino Fumio paused for a moment, and Tachibana Jun, who had already run down the stairs, immediately pushed him away and blocked Mashima Koji, who had collapsed against the wall due to exhaustion, behind him.
There were chaotic footsteps from above, and Tomoko Miura and Katsuhiko Sagara looked at the scene in astonishment.
"Why do you want to kill us?"
Tachibana Jun stared at him with a frown: "Is it the same reason you want to kill Ashihara Ryo?"
Kaoru Kino grabbed his right arm and breathed slightly. Although he was the one who committed the crime just now, he now looked as uncomfortable as Koji Mashima.
"How do you know my purpose?" asked Kino Xun in a deep voice.
"After hearing that Koji had awakened his super powers, your behavior became very strange. After knowing that several of us had also awakened our super powers, you couldn't help it anymore." Tachibana Jun said calmly.
He even couldn't help but take Koji Mashima to a farther place before taking action.
After awakening his super powers, Jun Tachibana found that he became very sensitive to certain things, especially when Kaoru Kino appeared.
She felt a kind of crisis that tingled her nerves.
……
……
"It's a spiritual superpower."
Kawahara rested his chin on his hand and smiled: "Not bad, it can be considered a surprising superpower."
Ashihara Ryo was lying on the rooftop, trying to look out to see what was going on in the corridor (even though he couldn't see anything). Then he looked at Kawahara suspiciously: "Hey? Do I really not need to save them now?"
Just as he finished speaking, there was a sudden loud bang in the corridor, and then a person flew out from the stairs below and fell on the street.
It turned out to be Koji Mashima, with light coming out of his abdomen again!
Following closely behind was Agito with a dark green figure who slowly walked out.
Although they have the same red compound eyes and golden horns, their posture exudes a strange sense of evil.
"Because you don't need to exist."
The deep and rich voice of Kino Kaoru came from the monster that looked like "Agito".
"I am the only one who is enough for Agito!"
"See, this is why he killed you."
Kawahara, who heard this on the rooftop, immediately explained it to Ashihara Ryo next to him.
Awihara Ryo: “…”
Koji Mashima could no longer question Kaoru Kino as the pain of evolution made him lie on the ground, struggling and twisting. However, Katsuhiko Sagara's loud shouting could be heard from the corridor.
"If that's the case, why did you gather us together when we were all wandering around? Why did you say you would protect us?"
Kino Xun slowly turned his head and looked behind him: "If you didn't have this power, perhaps I could still protect you, but you shouldn't have awakened."
"See! This is why he protects these people with all his heart. Do you understand now?"
Kawahara immediately explained the doubts to Ashihara Ryo.
Awihara Ryo: “…”
You are so upright!
Because Kawahara's voice was not concealed at all, the first voice might not have allowed people on the street to react, but this voice was even more arrogant, and Kino Fumio below immediately looked up.
Agito transformed from other people is usually called "Another AgitΩ", which means "another Agito" besides the first Agito who appeared in the world.
But Kaoru Kino just wants to be the only one.
"You are……?"
The dark green figure of Agito's red compound eyes flickered slightly, and his gaze fell on Awihara Ryo: "Agito!"
As both of them were awakened, they sensed each other.
Awihara Ryo looked down at him with a frown on his face: "There is bound to be more than one Agito in this world, Kino, is this why you want to kill me?"
Kino Xun's voice sank: "So it's you."
Although he had originally ordered everyone on the Rising Sun to kill Ashihara Ryo, the situation was never resolved because Ashihara Ryo had died before anyone else could take action.
The two of them stared at each other until Mashima Koji on the street caught Kino Fumio's eyes, and the latter quickly looked over.
It was as if the nerve called reason was being aroused. At this moment, Kaoru Kino suddenly swung his claws and attacked Koji Mashima who was lying on the ground without hesitation!
Seeing this, Ashihara Ryo immediately jumped onto the rooftop and jumped down, his entire body changing in an instant.
The horns and fangs that grew out replaced his face, and the dark blue Gills pounced on Kino Kaoru like a wild beast and pounced on him midway.
The two monsters rolled on the street, then immediately distanced themselves and climbed up, both threatening each other with ferocious and vicious hisses.
In this battle, both new and old grudges will be settled.
