A journey through the underworld, starting from the Tsubakihara family.

Murasaki Natsume's eyes turned resentful. Two years had passed, and her clever tricks could only make Makoto's gaze linger for a little while longer.

Yes, Murasaki no Natsuha likes Jingu Makoto.

The story begins in her first year of high school. As soon as she entered high school, the beautiful Natsumi Murasaki attracted the attention of many boys.

And after her terrifying puberty, she reached her peak.

If she weren't so upright and virtuous, she probably would have dated enough guys to fill several football teams.

However, after meeting Makoto Jingu, Natsume discovered that her charm, which she was so proud of, seemed to have lost its effect.

Although Makoto Jingu smiled as he spoke to her, Natsumi Murasaki could clearly sense his distance.

To prove her charm, Natsume decided to win over Makoto Shingu. She specifically asked the class president to move her seat next to Makoto Shingu.

However, as they spent more and more time together, Natsumi Murasaki found herself falling for him.

Jingu Makoto's handsome face, strong physique, and gentle smile captivated her.

His love reached its peak, especially after he helped her get rid of a blond guy who frequently harassed her!

Actually, is it possible that they just wanted the reward? (doge)

Two years have passed, and now the relationship between Natsumi Murasaki and Makoto Jingu can only be described as good friends.

However, Xia Ye didn't want to be friends, and since graduation was approaching, she decided to take the initiative.

Looking at Makoto Jingu's handsome profile, she mustered her courage and spoke:

"Chengjun, are you free lately?"

"Me? Lately, I've been studying every day to prepare for my college entrance exams."

"Cheng-kun, can you come to my house to study after school today? There are some things I don't understand, and I'd like to ask you for help."

Jingu Makoto raised an eyebrow, pondered for a moment, and said, "I have no problem with that, but I need to talk to my family first."

"Let me tell you!" Natsumi Murasaki excitedly opened her phone. She had previously visited Makoto Jingu's house and added his two older sisters as friends.

Her target was Tsubakihara Yuna; compared to her cool second sister, this gentle eldest sister was easier to talk to.

Xia Ye acted quickly, and after a while, Yuna's text message arrived on Jingu Makoto's phone.

"Makoto, Natsume told me that you'll be studying with her after school this afternoon. But don't forget to come home for dinner, okay? (^_-)"

Looking at the cute emoticons, Makoto Jingu chuckled softly, then nodded to Natsume Murasaki.

Success! Natsumi Murasaki cheered inwardly. Now, all she had to do was wait for the afternoon. With her secret weapon, she was sure she could win over Makoto!

……

After a while, as the clock struck nine, the bell rang, signaling the start of class.

The first class was history, taught by Mr. Sato, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.

However, a creaking sound rang out, and a beautiful teacher with an exceptional figure and appearance entered through the door.

The beautiful teacher was wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and a black pencil skirt that perfectly accentuated her curves.

Her apricot-yellow hair was tied into a bun at the back of her head, making her look very capable.

Her face, free of heavy makeup, glowed with a radiant sheen, like a rosebud about to bloom, exuding a unique charm with every gesture.

Even more exaggerated are the two towering peaks on her chest.

Jingu Makoto thought Natsume's was big enough, but he didn't expect there to be another expert.

What a magnificent mind! Whose general is this?

When the students saw that it wasn't Mr. Sato who came in, they started to whisper among themselves.

"who is this?"

"I've never seen this before. Did you go to the wrong classroom?"

However, some sharp-eyed students recognized the female teacher.

"Isn't this Ms. Baihe, who teaches second grade? What's she doing in our class?"

The beautiful teacher, wearing high heels, walked gracefully towards the podium, then picked up her lecture notes and tapped the podium to signal everyone to be quiet.

Seeing this, the noise in the classroom subsided.

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, the beautiful teacher nodded in satisfaction, then smiled and said:

"Hello everyone, I am Shirakawa Miwa."

Chapter 3 Applications of Hypnosis

"You can just call me Mr. Shirakawa. Mr. Sato has some family matters to attend to, so he asked me to fill in for him. I hope you'll all take good care of me for the next while."

Miwa Shirakawa said with a gentle smile on her face.

"I see," the audience below the stage suddenly realized.

Several boys in the back row bumped arms with shining eyes—the beautiful female teacher in front of them was clearly more popular than Sato, who always had a stern face.

Shirakawa Miwa... Jingu Makoto murmured the name to himself, feeling that it sounded somewhat familiar.

Moreover, Shirakawa-sensei's figure is so perfect, it fits the standard of female characters in the alternate world anime. I guess I'll have to pay more attention to it in the future.

He didn't mean anything by it; he just wanted to find the blond guy to farm rewards.

"Alright, let's begin class now. Everyone, open your books." Shirakawa Miwa clapped her hands, then expertly opened her handouts. "Since the entrance exams are coming up soon, I'll get straight to the important points."

Turn to page 5. In 1600 AD, a meteorite fell from the sky, and the energy it brought awakened humanity's spiritual power. Remember the year 1600 AD; it might appear in multiple-choice or true/false questions…

The history of this world is very similar to that of Earth, where Jingu Makoto lived in his previous life, until the meteorite in 1600 changed the course of the world.

According to later scientific tests, the meteorite emitted an energy called magic element, which caused a tremendous change in the human world.

Some humans maintained their normal human appearance, but awakened spiritual power within them and became superhumans; others, along with animals, transformed into unique species from various mythologies, such as elves, orcs, vampires, and monsters.

With the impact of superpowers, a thousand years later, the world order has undergone earth-shattering changes.

Elves, orcs, and others united, calling themselves demi-humans, and established the International Demi-human Alliance.

On the human side, after a thousand years of war and reorganization, a opposing force has emerged: the Human Community Alliance, or simply the Human Alliance.

The Human Alliance is composed of multiple forces, among which the Dragon Kingdom, the Europa Special Zone, the Lighthouse Kingdom, and the White Bear Kingdom are the most powerful.

Makoto Jingu currently lives in Tokyo, which belongs to the Sakura Province of China.

I have to work hard to become stronger; who knows what kind of things will be woven into this worldview? Makoto Jingu thought to himself as he listened to the lecture.

Teacher Baihe's voice is very pleasant to listen to; her voice seems to have a kind of magic, attracting students to listen to her lectures.

Even after the bell rang, many students lingered, watching Mr. Baihe's departing figure with reluctance.

"I wish Mr. Baihe could keep teaching us."

"Yeah yeah."

"May Sato come back later," a student prayed from their seat.

I wonder what Mr. Sato would think if he knew how much his students disliked him.

After two more classes, the bell rang again, signaling lunchtime.

Jingu Makoto skillfully pulled out the bento box that Ms. Mira had made for him from his bag, and Shinomiya Natsume, who was next to him, also came over with a bento box.

"Cheng-kun." She blinked her expressive eyes and deliberately pushed the lunchbox towards him. "I'm on a diet lately, and the lunchboxes my mom makes are a bit too big. Could you help me with some of it?"

Jingu Makoto paused, glancing at her bento box: sushi, salmon, tempura...

This amount might indeed be a bit too much for a girl.

"Sure." He nodded with a smile, unaware of the hint of smugness that flashed in Xia Ye's eyes.

……

Jingu Makoto patted his belly contentedly and exclaimed, "Auntie's cooking is excellent!"

Upon hearing this, Natsumi Murasaki's eyes curved into crescents: "Aunt Mira's tamagoyaki is also great."

As they were talking, Shingu Makoto suddenly stood up, and Natsume looked up in confusion.

"I'll go buy some water," he said, exchanging a glance with Xia Ye. "Would you like me to bring you a bottle of juice?"

"Mmm!" Xia Ye nodded, then immediately covered her burning cheeks as he turned around—he actually remembered that I love drinking juice! Ahhh, this is definitely a sign that he cares about me!

The convenience store was near the teaching building. After buying a bottle of mineral water and a bottle of juice from the vending machine, Makoto Jingu prepared to return to the classroom.

Just then, a man with messy hair and a dark aura walked past him.

And a voice also rang in Jingu Makoto's mind:

"Beep beep beep, the evil detection halo has detected an evil person. Please be careful, host!"

Hmm? Makoto Jingu frowned as he watched the figure gradually disappear into the distance.

The Evil Detection Aura was a reward he received last year after clearing out a group of thugs in the neighborhood.

It can detect individuals with malevolent abilities within a ten-meter radius—including but not limited to abilities such as consciousness manipulation, hypnosis, and time freezing.

Strange. Makoto Jingu remembered that after he obtained this ability, he specifically searched every corner of his neighborhood and school, but he couldn't find any problems.

There are only two possibilities: either this guy only recently came to this school, or he suddenly awakened his abilities like the protagonists and villains in those otherworld anime.

"Let me see who you are," Shingu Makoto quickened his pace and followed.

……

The man's name is Wataru Morishita, and he once had a happy family.

However, during junior high school, the family fell apart. The father's company went bankrupt unexpectedly, and he never recovered, spending his days drinking heavily.

Unable to endure this life, the mother ultimately chose to divorce.

Morishita Wataru's life plummeted from heaven to hell. Every day after school, he was greeted only by his alcoholic father's beatings and scoldings.

He lived a muddled life until he met Shirakawa Miwa.

After learning about his situation, Teacher Baihe patiently and earnestly taught and comforted him.

She was like a ray of light, illuminating his dark life.

Ms. Shirakawa's gentle smile, stunning beauty, and incredible figure—everything about her captivated Morishita Wataru.

Finally, last week, unable to suppress her feelings, Morishita mustered up the courage to confess her love, but unsurprisingly, she was rejected.

Ha... As expected, trash like him doesn't deserve love at all.

"It's alright." Morishita Wataru ignored the strange looks from the people next to him, and with a sinister sneer, he took out his phone from his pocket.

After the phone is turned on, it displays a blood-red screen that reads: "Hypnosis app, installation complete, OFF".

He got the app a few days ago, and at first he thought it was just a joke. It wasn't until he used the app to beat up the drunkard, Old Deng, that he realized it was real.

Morishita Wataru climbed the stairs leading to the rooftop step by step, screaming inwardly: Shirakawa-sensei, you're mine! You're mine!

This afternoon, he arranged to meet Shirakawa Miwa on the rooftop.

Chapter 4 Veiled Morishita Wataru

Morishita Wataru walked onto the rooftop, where Shirakawa Miwa had already arrived.

She sat quietly on a bench in a corner of the rooftop, her posture upright and elegant. Her hands were folded on her knees, and her skirt cascaded down naturally like flower petals, swaying gently in the breeze. Sunlight bathed her, casting a soft silhouette, and combined with the serene smile on her face, she was like a saint, captivating all who beheld her.

Watching this scene, Morishita Wataru felt purified: "Shirakawa... teacher."

Seeing Morishita arrive, Shirakawa Miwa waved: "Morishita-kun, come here. What do you need me for?"

"You're not going to confess again, are you, Morishita-kun? I already told you, you need to focus on your studies right now. Besides, your feelings for me are just normal teenage admiration, not love."

As expected, it's still the same. "Aaaaah!" Morishita Wataru roared inwardly, his last shred of compassion vanishing instantly.

He kept his head down, his long hair obscuring the upper half of his face, preventing Shirakawa Miwa from seeing his expression.

"What's wrong, Morishita-kun?" Shirakawa Miwa asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Hehehe..." A chilling laugh came from Morishita Wataru.

"Morishita-san, what are you doing?" Shirakawa Miwa sensed something was wrong and stood up, a whirlwind floating around her.
