Curse Back: From Demonic Hollow to Heroic Spirit Summoning.

Chapter 254 Imagine you and Mayi holding an umbrella and walking on a street full of cherry blossoms

"It's really sharp, but it's a pity that the blade is too short."

Maki took the dagger and swung it a few times, then picked up the cut steel pipe on the ground and tried it with different strengths.

"There are quite a few big guys among the cursed spirits. I don't think this short sword is as useful as the big sword just now."

Maki thought to herself what a pity, if the original sword hadn't been broken it would have been a very good cursed tool.

"It feels short. It's easy to fix. There's another button below the button I just pressed. Try pressing it."

I was originally worried that Maki thought there was something wrong with the knife and didn't like using it, but it turned out that it was just too short, which was an easy problem to solve.

"here?"

Yingzhi placed his finger on a button that was slightly smaller than the one for drawing the sword.

"Yes, that's it."

Click.

Swish.

"Wow."

After Maki pressed the button, the blade of the dagger suddenly popped out and became longer.

This scared Xing Qiluoluo who had just come over.

Originally, Xing Qiluo Luo just thought that the decoration of the hilt (umbrella handle) was very beautiful and wanted to take a closer look, but the blade suddenly became longer, scaring him so much that he fell down on his butt.

"I'm sorry. Are you okay?"

Although Maki doesn't have a good impression of Xing Qi Luo Luo, a cute boy who is better at dressing up than herself.

I think Xing Qi Luo Luo is more like a bean sprout than Yuta Otsutsukoshi, but Maki doesn't hate him.

Therefore, when he saw Xing Qiluolu fall down after being frightened by him, he immediately went forward to check.

"It's okay, I'm just a little scared."

Xing Qiluolu stood up and rubbed her little butt.

"You are far from being scared by something like this, Qiluo Luo."

On the contrary, Hyōkinji, who had a better relationship with Xing Qiluo Luo, not only did not worry about him, but also made a joke about him.

"That's too much, Xiao Jin."

Xing Qiluo Luo pouted angrily.

Maki couldn't quite understand the strange atmosphere between the two of them.

After making sure that Xing Qi Luo Luo was indeed okay, Maki turned her attention back to the knife.

"You hid part of the blade in the handle?"

Maki asked, comparing the extended lengths of the blades.

"That's right. After all, the length of the umbrella pole is limited, so a catapult design was made during the design. The length of the blade can be switched between a standard katana and a short sword."

Eiji nodded, confirming Maki's guess.

“This is a good design.”

Maki nodded in satisfaction.

After all, a normal-length katana is easier to use than a short sword.

"Are there any other forms?"

Apparently, Maki's interest in the Thousand Chance Umbrella was growing.

"Have."

Yingzhi nodded without hesitation.

Press the button again, and the blade of the katana will retract into the handle, turning back into a short sword.

Yingzhi inserted the dagger into the umbrella pole.

Yingzhi pressed the upper part of the umbrella pole and the handle with his hands, one above and one below, and twisted it hard, and the umbrella pole was separated into two parts.

"In this way, the Myriad Chance Umbrella can be divided into two parts. The upper part can be used as a spear, and the lower part can be used as a short stick."

Yingzhi held a spear in one hand and a stick in the other and then demonstrated some martial arts moves.

Stab, sweep, smash, and pick.

Although the length of the spear and the stick were shortened after being separated into two parts.

But flexibility wins.

It would be more advantageous if it was in a forest or other complex terrain.

Although Maki is a weapons master who can wield a naginata even in a dense forest, who would use a more difficult long weapon when there are weapons more suitable for use in a dense forest?

Unless you really only know that one.

"Of course, you can also use it this way."

Yingzhi pressed a hidden buckle on the top of the stick.

The golden decoration on the stick immediately opened to the side, revealing the white stick body inside.

Yingzhi reached out and grasped the part that bounced back, and the original short stick turned into an oriental stick.

This is the one that Megumi Fushiguro used when she fought against Kenki Kamo during the sister school exchange meeting.

"And this, too."

Yingzhi held the Oriental stick in his left hand.

Throw your right hand upward lightly and grab the base of the spear.

"See here? Push up and a button will appear."

Yingzhi placed his finger on a sliding switch and pushed it upwards.

A button appears below the switch.

At the same time, because the sliding switch is pushed upward.

The originally sharp tip of the umbrella, which was used as the tip of a spear, suddenly split into two.

A gun muzzle popped out from the middle.

"We have specially prepared this considering long-range combat and flying enemies."

As he spoke, Yingzhi pressed the button.

Bang!

In the stunned expressions of Hyōjinji and Xing Qiluolu.

A bullet shot out of the muzzle, leaving a crater on the ground.

"Because of the limited space, there are only 30 special bullets inside, and the firing of the bullets is done by magic power, so remember to find Mayu to refill the bullets and magic power after use."

After saying that, Yingzhi assembled the Thousand Chance Umbrella and handed it to Maki.

"This is good, I will make good use of it."

Maki looked at the cursed tool in her hand with satisfaction.

"So what do we need to test?"

After playing with it for a while, Maki turned around and asked.

"This is the list, mainly about the feel of using multiple forms in battle, the direction of deformation optimization..."

Yingzhi spoke a lot in a very eloquent manner. Although it was indeed for the reason of testing, he actually wanted Maki to accept this gift more.

After all, although the umbrella pole has a complex structure and is not thick, it is stuffed with a large number of mechanisms, making the umbrella pole almost half hollow.

But Medea performed more than a dozen strengthening magic for this purpose, so the quality is absolutely guaranteed.

The reason why it was given to Maki in the name of a test is because Maki is a very strong-willed girl.

If she didn't want to force it, she wouldn't leave the Chanyuan family.

Although Maki will accept other people's kindness, she will also feel burdened in her heart.

She will try to repay those who have helped her in the future.

That is why Eiji used this method to hand over the Thousand Chance Umbrella to Maki.

“Why is it made in the shape of an umbrella?”

Maki asked curiously, holding her umbrella.

'To remember the time that can never be returned.'

"Because carrying an umbrella when going out won't arouse suspicion."

Although I have this idea in my mind, it is not convenient to talk about things in my past life, otherwise I will be regarded as a mental patient.

So Yingzhi changed his statement.

"Just imagine, you are wearing a pink and white cherry blossom kimono, holding a beautiful umbrella and walking with your sister on a street full of cherry blossoms, and then a gust of wind blows..."

As Yingzhi spoke, Maki couldn't help but fall into the imagination of a better future.

Bang.

"Don't think of anything embarrassing."

Maki suddenly elbowed Eiji in the stomach, neither too hard nor too light.

Yingzhi immediately begged for mercy.

'I'll do this when I'm strong enough.'

Maki turned her back and couldn't help blushing, and began to imagine the future of herself and her sister Mayi.

"Hey, over here."

Xing Qiluolu suddenly raised her right hand high, like a student who was answering a question.

"Qiluoluo, please speak."

Yingzhi immediately took on the role of a teacher.

"Do you still have the Thousand Chance Umbrella? Xiao Jin and I want one too!"

"There is only one prototype at the moment, and we will decide whether to continue production based on the test results after the test is completed."

"Oh, why is this happening? I want it too."

Xing Qiluo Luo's face was immediately filled with disappointment.

"Why do you want the Thousand Chance Umbrella?"

Yingzhi asked curiously.

"Because I also want to wear a kimono and hold an umbrella while strolling on the streets where cherry blossoms are falling. Xiao Jin, do you want to come with me?"

Xing Qiluo Luo excitedly invited Cheng Jinci.

"The umbrella is gone."

"Xiao Jin, you're an idiot."
