The world within the ice-blue pupils changed as usual.
Fang Li only gazed at Rem lying before him, observing her being divided by the crack-like Death Lines, unable to help but think.
"It's just like a broken doll."
Moreover, it was a living, bloodied broken doll.
A touch would cause it to rot.
A touch would cause it to shatter.
A touch would cause it to break.
A touch would cause it to die.
This incredibly cute girl, under the gaze of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, had completely become an object with only this kind of value.
Therefore, those who possessed these eyes could not live in the normal world.
Because, in their eyes, life was just a rag, a piece of garbage, a broken doll.
Once this worldview took root, anyone would only have two outcomes.
They would either become insane.
Or they would become a murderer.
That's it.
So, Tohno Shiki used an item called the Mystic Eyes Killer to seal his Mystic Eyes, in order to grow up with the mindset of a normal person.
Similarly, Ryougi Shiki spent a year getting used to her Mystic Eyes, mastering complete control before she could avoid being tormented into madness.
Perhaps, only someone like Fang Li, who was indifferent to death, could maintain normalcy in such a world.
However, maintaining normalcy came at the cost of Fang Li's soul facing the imminent threat of shattering.
One can imagine the immense cost of possessing these eyes.
However, the greater the cost, the greater the ability.
At least, before these eyes, there was nothing that couldn't be killed.
"But what I want to kill isn't this..."
In the original story of "Kara no Kyoukai", after Ryougi Shiki became thoroughly familiar with the use of her Mystic Eyes, she could perceive things that ordinary people couldn't see, relying on her sensitivity to "Death" and the ability of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
For example, diseases.
After practicing with Ryougi Shiki in his soul space to refine the use of Mystic Eyes, Fang Li also gained this trait, thus being able to discover the independent space that existed nowhere else, this area of the forbidden book repository.
Then, using this trait, Fang Li also discovered the curse within Rem's body.
"Since I can see it..."
Then, Fang Li could kill it.
For this reason, Fang Li began to adjust the focus of his Mystic Eyes.
Not to see the Death Lines of the young girl before him.
"But to a deeper place..."
So, Fang Li continued to concentrate his consciousness on the magic in his eyes, gazing into Rem's body.
Until a certain moment...
"Biri..."
A sensation like an electric shock suddenly surged through Fang Li's mind.
"Hmm?"
Fang Li was slightly startled, and then his field of vision changed completely.
At this moment, Fang Li's consciousness was being pulled away.
Pulled away to a place that didn't belong to him.
...
"Crackle... Crackle..."
As Fang Li's consciousness began to return, a strange sound entered his ears.
Fang Li took some time to discern the nature of these strange sounds.
"The sound of flames..."
Yes.
It was the sound of flames.
The sound of flames burning.
Such sounds came from all directions.
In Butei High, there was specialized training for Butei to develop their listening skills, allowing them to discern some conditions of crime scenes through media such as telephones, cell phones, or listening devices.
Therefore, Fang Li almost made a judgment in the first moment.
"A sea of fire..."
That's right.
It was a sea of fire.
Fang Li was in the midst of a sea of fire.
Despite the fierce flames, no heat reached Fang Li's body.
Combined with the previous anomaly, Fang Li somewhat understood what was happening now.
So, Fang Li slowly opened his eyes.
As judged earlier, Fang Li was in the midst of a sea of fire.
Surrounding him were houses being gradually consumed by flames, burning down to ashes.
And here, it was a remote village deep in the mountains.
Fang Li was right in the center of this village.
Around him, a battle was raging.
A brutal battle.
Both sides of the battle were distinct.
One side was a group of villagers.
The other side was a group of cultists.
The villagers were not ordinary villagers.
Each and every one of them possessed incredibly powerful abilities, with a pair of ferocious beast-like horns on their heads, resembling Evil Spirits, roaring angrily as they charged at their enemies.
The cultists were also not ordinary cultists.
Each and every one of them wore black robes, emitting a very ominous and evil aura, releasing flames of magic at the oncoming Evil Spirits, one by one.
"Ugh...!"
"Ah...!"
"Ugh...!"
In the clear cries of pain and screams, villagers and cultists fought in this small village.
The battle was indeed extremely brutal.
The villagers, like noble warriors, fought recklessly, bravely attacking, one after another falling in the flames of magic, gradually turning into charred corpses.
The evil cultists, like mad fanatics, disregarded their own safety, facing the attacking villagers, only releasing flames of magic, continuously burning down the oncoming enemies, gradually torn into pieces by the angry Evil Spirits, blood splattering on the spot.
In this battle, there was no mercy to be spoken of, it was simply like fighting to the death in a way of mutual destruction, a brutal scene beyond imagination.
No matter who, seeing such a scene, would be shocked beyond measure.
Yet Fang Li looked on calmly at this slaughter.
The only thing he noticed was one person.
A very young little girl.
She was a little girl dressed in a white kimono with patterns, with short pink hair.
Seeing this little girl, Fang Li immediately recognized her identity.
"Ram?"
There was no doubt, it was Ram.
However, compared to the Ram in Fang Li's memory, the Ram before him was not only very young but also had two differences.
One was a single white horn growing on her forehead.
The other was a power so strong that it astonished Fang Li.
Seeing this, the young Ram spread out her hands, and like a storm, the weasel-like blades exploded outward in all directions.
The scale of this storm was comparable to a hurricane of dozens of levels.
With one expansion, all the surrounding houses were crushed.
And among those crushed were also the mad cultists.
In this way, Ram was also fighting fiercely.
Watching this Ram, Fang Li remained silent.
However, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Sister is very powerful, isn't she?"
With the appearance of such a voice, Rem appeared by Fang Li's side at some point.
Then, she said such a line.
"That's the power of Sister being an 'Oni'."
