Princess Fischl

Chapter 67

Looking at the shocked trio, I slowly released the fusion, allowing Ozu to appear on my shoulder in a purple flash. However, it seemed like this was a signal for them to retreat, because the car suddenly began to back up.

- No, that won't do. They'll make me look like some kind of monster. - I said discontentedly before moving to the back seat of the car next to Saeko with Oz on my shoulder.

- And? What did you manage to get yourself into? - I asked calmly, holding the bokken with one hand, which the girl tried to hit me with. And the car immediately braked.

Taking a deep breath, Takashi looked at us through the rearview mirror with an impartial face.

- Gojo-san, who are you?

"Shaman," I answered monosyllabically.

- Shamans can't do what you showed, - the guy answered without doubting his words, and Saeko, realizing that a battle for survival was not planned, calmed down and took the bokken I had given her.

- You are very much mistaken, Komuro-kun. - I addressed the guy less formally. - Although I was not born in the Gojo clan, I was accepted there because I mastered a special technique inherent in this clan of shamans. The technique of infinity, allowing you to control infinity, and compared to the head of that clan, I am quite weak.

- Infinity? - the guy exhaled, if it weren't for the wound and the suppression of emotions, I think the reaction would have been much more violent.

- Yes, infinity, if you are interested in how it manifests itself, I will list it briefly. Infinite energy, as well as influence on space and time. Although in essence, mainly on space. - I said, leaning on the back of the seat with a smile.

- Tell me, how did it happen that you were wounded, and only Busujima-san and Hayashi-san were nearby? - I asked.

- Some time after you left, we were attacked again. Those who were watching us decided that since you left the group, the rest of us were not a threat. - Saeko answered me, who slightly tensed up from Oz's gaze.

- Miss, you don't have to be afraid of me. As a gentleman, I won't harm an innocent girl. - Oz's deep voice suddenly rang out in the car.

"What?" Saeko asked, stunned.

After laughing a little at how surprised the others were at Oz's voice, I decided to introduce him. "Allow me to introduce you, this is my faithful great chronicler, Ozvaldo Hrafnavins."

- Nice to meet you, - the raven bowed.

"We are also pleased," Takashi, pale from loss of blood, answered for the others.

- Listen, maybe I should heal you? - I turned to the guy. - Know that my healing skills are unmatched, because more than once, for the sake of using complex techniques, I simultaneously healed my own brain and even pulled a person who had lost the lower half of his body back from the other world.

"And what will you demand for this?" Takashi slightly lowered the suppression of emotions, clearly giving an idea with his intonation how dubious my proposal seemed to him.

- What kind of demon do you take me for? - I frowned.

- Hm. Let me think. The name is Amy, like the 58th demon of the Goetia, the great governor of hell. The last name is not my own, taken from an unknown clan of shamans who govern infinity. A personal chronicler, which means that there are other subjects. Black wings like a fallen angel. I wonder what I should be thinking about.

- Hey, hey. First of all, the demon you described appears in flames, and I don't control fire, secondly, I'm only 14 years old, and finally, most importantly, comparing me, the princess of condemnation, the new ruler of the Nirvana of the night, with a demon is tantamount to an insult! I don't know what kind of system you have there, but if it doesn't contain information about the one on whom the cycle of the beginning and end rests, then it's not worth a dime! - I almost shouted in righteous anger, not caring that I most likely revealed the guy's secret. I don't really like the title of "demon's namesake" anyway, and then there's him.

- System? - Saeko was the first to react, surprisingly, looking questioningly at Takashi, who groaned as he put his hand to his face. And I looked at this with a malicious grin.

- Um, can you please explain to me what you're talking about? - the teacher asked the schoolgirl, clearly not understanding what she was talking about.

- Recently, it has become quite popular in anime and manga for the main character to receive a certain system, thanks to which he can develop much faster. This manifests itself in the form of various screens that only the main character can see, and also, as a rule, there are such abilities as spatial inventory, a map, the player's mind and the player's body. - Saeko explained.

- To be honest, I didn't expect you to understand this, - I said with a hint of admiration. After all, unlike typical otaku, she is a prize winner in kendo tournaments, and she just didn't seem to be lagging behind in her studies.

"I also need to rest sometimes," the girl answered me.

- So, a world monster? - Takashi suddenly spoke.

- Hm? - I looked at the guy questioningly.

"You say that comparing you to a demon is an insult, but aren't you something worse than a demon? A world monster that literally devours worlds and then commits suicide. Isn't that worse?" Takashi asked.

- And what's wrong with that? - I asked, puzzled. - Everything has an end, and so after such a long time that I don't even know the number, instead of being finally swallowed up by the abyss, I will give the universe a chance to be reborn. Although this is all so far away that it simply doesn't make sense to think about it.

- However, when that moment comes, you will essentially kill countless innocents. Women, children, old people, even babies. Doesn't that bother you one bit?

- It's not a fact yet, as I already said, there's still a long time until the end, and it's not known what I'll meet in my travels. - I answered, frowning.

- I understand. Um… and can you heal me? I'm not sure we'll make it to the operating room in time for me to patch myself up. - the guy asked.

- Huh? Why should I do that? When I offered treatment, you refused, calling me a demon, and now, having presented me as a mass murderer who devours babies, you ask me to cure you? Well, use your system and cure yourself. - I was indignant.

- Gojo-san, please. - Saeko looked at me pleadingly.

"Damn, how can I refuse such a cutie?" I thought, looking at the schoolgirl.

- My lady, we both know you won't leave him to die, just cure him. - Oz spoke.

- Oz. Maybe you're right, but he should have at least apologized! - I exclaimed at such betrayal from the raven.

"I don't think he's capable of that right now, Milady," Oz replied, pointing his beak at the unconscious boy.

- Damn it. - I cursed and reached out to the wounded guy for treatment.
