Chapter 69

"Ah! Here they come again!" Inoue suddenly pointed at the door of the staff room and said.

Sure enough, two more stiff figures walked in. However, among the group, apart from Mizuki Yuka who was still a bit afraid to look, the others were no longer scared. After all, with Aoba here, everyone felt as if they had a backbone.

"Here, one for each of you, take a look!" Aoba said, tossing three spirit jade talismans to Ito, Inoue, and Mizuki Yuka.

The three of them took them one by one, and then they saw the two stiff students approaching, with small ghosts perched on their heads.

"They, they are really possessed," Ito said, his voice trembling as he watched the ghostly figures on the approaching students.

After all, as normal people, facing these legendary ghosts, they naturally felt a bit uneasy, even though they had already come into contact with similarly stiff and controlled students. However, they hadn't actually seen the ghostly figures.

Mizuki Yuka let out a scream and hid behind Aoba.

At the same time, the sound of footsteps came from outside the staff room. Just as everyone thought another person controlled by a ghost was coming, they saw Sengoku Yukishiro walk in lightly.

Seeing Aoba and the others in the room, as well as the two controlled students, Sengoku Yukishiro did not speak at first. Instead, she drew her katana, and with a milky white glow, she slashed at the two students.

"Ah! No!" Mizuki Yuka immediately screamed.

Although she was very afraid, she also knew that these students were only temporarily controlled and would eventually regain consciousness. But if they were cut by a sword, they might never wake up.

However, Mizuki Yuka's voice was not as fast as the sword. As soon as her voice faded, the sword had already circled around the heads of the two students and returned to the sheath.

Looking at the two students again, they had already collapsed on the ground.

At the same time, because they had the spirit jade talismans, the group saw that the ghostly figures on the heads of the two students had disappeared after the sword's light passed.

"Don't worry, I used the back of the blade, so no one was hurt! I just eliminated two ghosts," Sengoku Yukishiro explained.

"Who are you? Sengoku-san?" Ito and Inoue said in unison.

Sengoku Yukishiro glanced at the two of them but did not speak. Instead, she came to Aoba's side, called him "Lord Aoba," and stood there like a guard, motionless.

Ito and Inoue looked at Aoba and Sengoku Yukishiro with strange eyes, occasionally exchanging glances, speculating about their relationship and the fact that Sengoku Yukishiro could also exorcise spirits.

Shigeo Yuma also kept looking at Aoba and Sengoku Yukishiro, thinking that if Sengoku Yukishiro could exorcise spirits, perhaps she was also an exorcist. No wonder Aoba said she was dangerous and told him not to get close to her.

As a teacher, Mizuki Yuka was also surprised. She never expected that the famous beauty in the school seemed to have an unusual relationship with Aoba.

As for Aoba, he was frowning in deep thought, and after a while, his frown slightly eased.

"Yukishiro, take care of them here! I'll go upstairs and check. If my guess is correct, the culprit is on the rooftop," Aoba said.

"Lord Aoba, do you need me to go with you?" Sengoku Yukishiro asked worriedly.

"No, you stay here and take care of them! I can go up alone. If it's something I can't handle, you going up won't help either," Aoba said with a smile, shaking his head.

"I remember something," Shigeo Yuma suddenly said.

"What do you remember?" Aoba asked.

"I remember that at dusk, a light suddenly appeared on the rooftop of the teaching building, but it quickly disappeared! After that light disappeared, the black mist that enveloped the school appeared," Shigeo Yuma said.

"It seems the source of everything is indeed on the rooftop," Aoba nodded.

"Are you sure you can handle it alone? Why don't we all go with you?" Shigeo Yuma looked at Aoba with concern.

"If you really worry about me, don't go up! Yukishiro might be useful if she goes, but if you all go, it will just be a hindrance. So, it's better for Yukishiro to stay and take care of you while I go up alone," Aoba said with a smile.

"Then let Sengoku-san go with you! We can take care of ourselves," Shigeo Yuma said.

Ito and Inoue, although they also wanted Sengoku Yukishiro to stay and protect them, finally said, "Yes, we can take care of ourselves! Let Sengoku-san go with you, at least she can help!"

"Let Sengoku-san go with you! We're fine," Mizuki Yuka also said.

"Lord Aoba, let me go with you," Sengoku Yukishiro also looked at Aoba.

Compared to Aoba's safety, Sengoku Yukishiro didn't care much about a few unfamiliar classmates and teachers.

"Alright, stop arguing! Don't worry, I can handle it," Aoba patted Sengoku Yukishiro's shoulder and turned to leave the staff room.

Sengoku Yukishiro wanted to follow, but in the end, she stayed behind.

Leaving the staff room, Aoba's expression became serious.

Judging from the aura coming from the rooftop, Aoba had a premonition of what he would face, which was why he deliberately didn't let Sengoku Yukishiro follow, as she wouldn't be much help.

If this were the Aoba of his prime, he could easily handle it. But for the current Aoba, it was a situation that required serious attention, so the reality was far from the ease he had shown earlier.

Aoba quickened his pace, heading up the stairs to the rooftop. In a few steps, he reached the door to the rooftop and opened it.

As the door opened, Aoba saw a magic circle in the center of the rooftop, a vortex swirling above it, and a girl standing with her head bowed at the edge of the magic circle.

Aoba recognized the girl; she was the beautiful driver of Yamawaki Natsu.

However, the driver's condition was clearly not good, as she was surrounded by countless ghosts, not just a few, not even a hundred, but thousands.

These ghosts had completely enveloped her, like a layer of armor covering her entire body.

Yes, she was possessed, and not by just a few ghosts, but by thousands.

Around the magic circle, there were tens of thousands of ghosts densely packed, and the ghosts possessing the driver were only a small part of them.
