“Your eyes…”

Amadeus, seeing the Killing Ghoul standing there, stopping in its tracks, suddenly began to approach it, and at the same time, spoke softly.

“This eye of yours… I’ve seen it on the soul manifestation of ‘Hundred Eyes’… So that’s how it is…”

Seeing that the other party did not choose to run away, but instead took the initiative to approach him, the Killing Ghoul's temper flared up, its face gradually becoming hideous and distorted, the nails on its hands began to extend and lengthen, becoming increasingly sharp and pointed, bending slightly at the waist, it pounced towards Amadeus at a speed almost impossible to see with the naked eye.

However, the next second, something unexpected happened to the Killing Ghoul.

“Come forth…”

Amadeus raised his right hand and waved it gently, saying indifferently.

“Killing Ghoul.”

Watching a soul manifestation with a similar appearance to himself, only with an extra eyeball, and even a similar size, suddenly appear, and after colliding with himself in the air, the two bounced back at the same time, the Killing Ghoul's entire spirit was stunned.

The other party's soul's true name is also Killing Ghoul?

And… it looks the same as me?

A bootleg, this is a bootleg!!!

If Yotsuya Miko and the others were here, they would immediately be able to distinguish that this soul manifestation ability called "Killing Ghoul" was exactly the kind used by the memory body created by Professor Resshining during that attack, body enhancement, like a beast.

“Hmm…”

Amadeus first made a thoughtful sound of unclear meaning, and then said a sentence that made the Killing Ghoul's face turn pale green with anger.

“You are very weak… Not much different from ordinary evil spirits, it seems that your special thing is only your eyes…”

The Killing Ghoul instantly broke down.

Because what Amadeus said was indeed not wrong.

Born in the Reverse World, the Killing Ghoul, which is considered a strange species among evil spirits, is not particularly powerful in itself, but has been constantly devouring other evil spirits, so its progress is very fast.

To say that its innate special thing is its eyes, which are very sensitive to the traces of evil spirits and used to track them, but now there is only one left.

The Killing Ghoul is, after all, an evil spirit, and does not have the high intelligence of Tamamo-no-Mae, understanding the principle of retreating when things look bad, and still rushed up, fighting with the soul manifestation summoned by Amadeus.

On the other side, Yotsuya Miko, who was conducting a reconnaissance operation alone, with her hand always on the hilt of the Mikazuki Munechika sword at her waist, suddenly felt a strange sensation in her heart, and the next second, her soul manifestation, Hundred Eyes, immediately appeared, the dark green eyeball from the Killing Ghoul's body flashing with light, slowly pointing to a certain direction.

“There, about twenty-three kilometers away, the owner of this eyeball is fighting with some kind of existence.”

“Killing Ghoul has encountered an enemy…”

Yotsuya Miko knew that the Killing Ghoul, as a half-member of the Overload Society, had been conducting hunting operations in the Reverse World of Tokyo, and ordinary evil spirits should not be a match for the Killing Ghoul, which had devoured so many evil spirits and also had the effect of dispelling evil spirits.

Something that can put it in a difficult battle… must be related to Professor Resshining's “Palace”.

“Too far away…”

Yotsuya Miko did not have the ability to fly, and could only report the situation in the communication first.

“Received.”

Yozora nodded, exchanged a glance with Yagami Light beside him, immediately summoned a huge pale ghost hand, leading L and Kurisu Makise onto it, and quickly flew towards the direction indicated by Yotsuya Miko.

At this time, Mai Sakurajima and Rio Futaba, Yui Yuigahama and Hina Amano, Touma Kazusa and Setsuna Ogiso, as well as Saki Kawasaki, Hina Minami, and Suzuha Amane, these several teams of the Overload Society, also encountered strong enemies.

“This guy’s ability…”

Mai Sakurajima looked at the psychic who was on all fours, lying on the ground, attacking Rio Futaba at an extremely fast speed, not giving Rio Futaba any time to chant, and couldn't help but lightly bite her silver teeth. Although her condition was still a bit poor because her body had just been switched back not long ago, she still tried her best to summon her soul manifestation.

“Suzuhikohime!”

Suzuhikohime, holding a paper umbrella, slowly landed on the ground in a very elegant posture. As the paper umbrella swayed, bursts of pink cherry blossom petals scattered, sweeping towards the psychic.

At this moment, another psychic with the exact same appearance and abilities as that psychic appeared from the darkness, and after fusing with the soul manifestation, also on all fours, in a beast-like posture, pounced towards Mai Sakurajima.

“Damn it… Come back, Suzuhikohime.”

Mai Sakurajima was not good at close combat, and the type of her soul manifestation was not suitable for fusion, so she had no choice but to summon Suzuhikohime back first to resist the psychic's attack, while she took out a pistol from her pocket, intending to start aiming at the other party's movement trajectory, but several evil spirits emerged from the black mist, pouncing towards the direction she was standing.

“These two guys are really annoying…”

Mai Sakurajima and Rio Futaba both realized that things were not going well.

Obviously, this entire city has become Professor Resshining's "Palace", and each psychic in this city that appeared based on his memories was obviously not arranged randomly, but set up to target their weaknesses.

For example, the one attacking Mai Sakurajima and Rio Futaba was the extremely fast “Killing Ghoul”.

On Yui Yuigahama and Hina Amano's side, one “Killing Ghoul” was interfering with Hina Amano, not giving her a chance to chant to summon lightning, and the other was a “Swamp Monster” that restrained close combat and had high defense, not seeking victory, but just blocking Yui Yuigahama, not letting her support Hina Amano.

And Touma Kazusa and Setsuna Ogiso's side was even more simple and unadorned.

The type of their two soul manifestations is activated by the sound produced by spiritual power… Although Touma Kazusa often makes Kin'nara swing the koto to smash enemies, Kin'nara is indeed not a soul manifestation that is good at close combat, it can only be said that it is her personal preference.

Therefore, Professor Resshining arranged a “Kamaitachi” that could stir up strong winds to shield the sound produced by their soul manifestations using spiritual power.

As for the team formed by Saki Kawasaki, Hina Minami, and Suzuha Amane, although they were not attacked by any psychics, they were also in a mess at this time.

Suzuha Amane, who is just an ordinary human, and Hina Minami, who had just become a psychic not long ago and had not received milk special training, were in the Reverse World of Tokyo with a very high density of evil spirits. The aura emitted by the two of them was like a dazzling lighthouse for those evil spirits who longed to devour humans.

Even with the deterrence emitted by Saki Kawasaki's spiritual power, there were still countless evil spirits trying to attack their team.

The memory bodies created by Resshining can be fearless and completely ignore the attacks of those evil spirits, but the members of the Overload Society team are not willing to die in this kind of place. Although they are not in danger, they are also delayed for a while.

And in the shadows of each area, there is a projection representing Resshining, silently watching the battle in front of him.

It was not that he did not want to create more memory bodies to cooperate with the evil spirits of the Reverse World to directly kill the several teams of the Overload Society, but his soul manifestation ability also had a limit. Even when he was in the “Palace”, it was impossible to create memory bodies endlessly.

On the other hand…

Resshining's goal was very clear.

If "Faceless" isn't killed, everything is just empty talk. Even if you kill those assisting him, or even his most important "Kira" or "Hundred Eyes," I'm afraid it won't be possible to reach the world line I'm pursuing.

Leistner knows that one of "Faceless's" assistants should have the ability to rewind time, but he can't determine the conditions for its activation, nor can he identify the specific member.

Originally, his all-out attack plan shouldn't have started so early. He should have prepared for at least some time, at least until the famous and tragic battle of "Faceless" consumed most of his spiritual power before launching the plan.

But there was no way. Leistner never expected that his identity would be exposed so easily. This simply doesn't conform to normal logic.

However, he is not worried about death.

In Leistner's eyes, a person's life is their memory. As long as he can eliminate "Faceless," just like he used the the nature of the Reverse Side to create the physical existence of Amadeus, he can be resurrected at any time.

As long as… he can eliminate "Faceless."

But considering the possibility of time rewinding, there is only one chance.

And that one chance must be used on "Faceless."

Using the nature of the Reverse Side to make "Faceless's" death… an established fact that even time rewinding… cannot change…

When that time comes, it will be the victory finally achieved after decades of painstaking planning.

"It's here."

As he approached the area that Mikoto Yotsuya mentioned, even though spiritual power perception wasn't one of Yosho's strengths, he could clearly feel that there was something wrong with the hospital building in front of him.

Although he wasn't good at sensing spiritual power, as a qualified gourmet, he was very sensitive to the taste of food.

In the Reverse Side of Tokyo, which is full of delicious wraiths, only the area around this building felt like a restaurant that had already closed, exuding a desolate and disappointing aura.

This meant that just now… no, maybe even now, there was some powerful existence hunting in this building.

As for whether it was a Slaughter Demon, or something that put the Slaughter Demon in danger, something that Leistner could call a god, and even thought was enough to kill "Faceless," he would have to go inside and see.

As they entered the hospital building, Kurisu Makise couldn't help but show some nervousness on her face.

After all, no matter how good her mind was, or how important a role she played in the future world line, she was still just an ordinary person without power. Not to mention the battles between spirit users, even the weakest wraith in the Reverse Side could easily kill her.

In contrast, L's expression was extremely calm, and there was even a hint of excitement in the depths of his eyes.

The Reverse Side… this was a mystery that had never been solved since the day the Overload Society was created.

Why did such a world appear, and how were the rules of this world set?

Besides Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, are there other cities with a Reverse Side?

What is the pattern of the Reverse Side's appearance? What is the purpose of its appearance?

L's analysis angle was different from Rio Futaba's. He didn't treat the Reverse Side as an area, but as a criminal suspect.

Every change, these characteristics, were gradually revealing the essence of this criminal.

Thinking that he had such a stimulating and difficult puzzle in front of him, L had already completely put his life and death aside.

As they proceeded step by step towards the top of the building, they could clearly see the potholes remaining on the walls and floors, and the shattered stair handrails. It could be said that everything was in ruins. Obviously, a fierce battle had taken place not long ago.

"This is…"

As they approached the top floor, Light Yagami keenly noticed a piece of dull yellow cloth on the ground. He knelt on one knee, picked it up, and after observing it, immediately came to a conclusion.

"This is fabric from human clothing. Who would wear such a tasteless color…"

Halfway through his words, Light Yagami noticed that Yosho was pointing to Kurisu Makise beside him.

Because he wasn't interested in this so-called genius girl, Light Yagami hadn't looked at her directly until this moment when he realized…

She was wearing a dull yellow coat.

When the group arrived at the top floor of the hospital building, pushed open the stairwell door, and entered the corridor, they saw a girl who was grabbing the Slaughter Demon's neck with her right hand and pressing him against the wall. The latter struggled in pain, unable to resist her power, and could only watch as the girl's left hand approached his eyeball bit by bit.

"How dare you!"

Seeing this scene, Yosho shouted directly, his figure instantly appearing in front of the girl, and throwing a punch without hesitation.

"How dare you steal our Overload Society's property! ?"

The girl raised her arms to block, but because of the force of the punch, her body retreated several meters until her back hit the corridor wall, creating several cracks with a muffled sound before finally stopping.

The Slaughter Demon didn't have time to complain about why his eyeball was regarded as the Overload Society's property by Yosho, but hurriedly reminded him.

"Be careful, this guy… is very strong…"

Kurisu Makise looked at the girl with her head down, and noticed her beautiful dark red hair, and an ominous premonition rose in her heart.

And when she looked up, she was completely shocked.

"You are…"

Amadeus, who had the exact same face as Kurisu Makise, even wearing the same clothes, looked up, scanned the people in front of her with her emotionless blue eyes, and burst out with amazing spiritual power fluctuations.

"I… am the end of 'Faceless'."

The strength of 42us, city-level combat

"This guy… is the ultimate means that Leistner mentioned… the artificial intelligence with those memories and all types of spiritual abilities…"

Light Yagami narrowed his eyes slightly, his pupils turning scarlet.

The scarlet Great Tengu mask and the white clothes like a gorgeous military uniform covered his body.

"'Kira'…"

Looking at Light Yagami, who had completed his soul projection transformation, Amadeus's gaze only shifted slightly, and then she said in a mechanical and indifferent tone.

"You are irrelevant to the world line, not my target, get out of the way."

Hearing this sentence, undisguised twisted killing intent appeared in Light Yagami's scarlet eyes.

You must know that he had just lost to Yosho in the final of the tennis match today.

Although tennis, to Light Yagami, was something he wouldn't even look at if Yosho didn't participate. He would only find it boring and meaningless, but a match is a match, and failure is failure.

For someone with Light Yagami's arrogant self-esteem, becoming a loser in a competition, and losing so badly, he would still feel uncomfortable in his heart.

What's more…

In this incident planned and disguised by Leistner, the so-called future timeline SERN organization attack, Light Yagami hardly helped at all.

It was Yosho who locked down the suspect.

It was L who deduced the truth of the incident.
