Chapter 141: Start as a Useless Person, Treasures All Rely on Explosion

Around twelve o'clock at midnight.

Sakai Yuji, who had experienced being attacked by Rinze, although he couldn't see the situation of the spirit fire burning in his body, also observed more than once along the way that those who lived their daily lives with spirit fire on their chests, indistinguishable from ordinary people, slowly burned out, and then were forgotten by everyone.

On the street corner, there was a little boy going home with his companions. Under his gaze, that little flame slowly extinguished, abruptly disappeared from the world, and in the end, not even a trace of existence could be left.

Except for him, no one noticed.

All of this made Sakai Yuji, this ordinary boy, feel uneasy, fearful, panicked, and sad.

Could it be that he would also become like this?

Burning slowly like a candle, consumed, and then parents, friends, classmates, no one would remember that he had ever existed?

"To absorb 'existence power'...... must one find humans?"

"That's natural. In order to maintain existence and realize desires, one must swallow the existence closest to us, possessing deep and profound will, to have the significance of obtaining power. Absorbing too many miscellaneous things will only make the power weaker."

"Smile, smile!"

This person, who still refused to leave his house at this hour, occupied his room, and even lay on his bed reading manga, waved his hand lazily, destroying this sentimental atmosphere completely.

Then the next second.

Click click click.

As the silent gears turned.

The spirit fire on the boy's chest, which was slightly weak, became vigorous and tenacious in an instant. The 【Torch】 returned to its original appearance.

"It really is Midnight Lost Child..."

Alastor sighed heavily.

Midnight Lost Child is a treasure created by the "Promised Two," Crimson Inoue Shimo King "Rainbow" Pheles and "Eternal Lover" Johann, meaning "letting time get lost at zero," which can allow the holder to recover all existence power at zero.

The exaggeration of this thing is more than just this.

Sakai Yuji, although he was a "useless person" at the start, whether as the quality of a human or as the 【vessel】 of existence power, he was mediocre, and his upper limit was not high. Daily fixed-time refreshing was nothing special.

But "Midnight Lost Child," this thing, put into that bucket, could fill that bucket.

Even if Yuji later became a Crimson World King, or even a higher level, the massive existence power that tens of thousands of people might not be able to match could also be filled in an instant. Creating a world with infinite existence power was not impossible. It belongs to the great secret treasure among secret treasures, the one-piece in the Shana world.

Jia Ji also wondered how such an awesome thing was created. It obviously violated the world's underlying logic, right? Where did the recovered existence power come from? It simply created something out of nothing, where did it put the law of conservation of existence power!

Then the Heavenly Punishment God was also somewhat hard to bear, explaining to him.

The appearance of treasures is a 'distortion' born from the extreme fit between 'objects'—that exist in this world as humans—and 'power'—that manipulates things with will as 'denizens'—two different things.

As long as they possess fitting wishes, the distortion will appear in the form of wishes—becoming 'objects with power', treasures.

After modern times, because the consciousness of the human side is mostly sealed by Fuzetsu, it is inevitable that it is difficult for treasures to be born, so the opportunities to make treasures in modern and contemporary times have been greatly reduced, which makes the images of treasures mostly full of classical styles.

"Such idealistic things, such vague concepts; they look just like those nonsensical Imperial Arms... I couldn't use them last time, but this time... Alright, alright, I still can't use them."

After several tests, except for passive treasures, there wasn't a single treasure that required the user to actively stimulate it that he could use. He used his strength until his forehead was sweating, but he didn't succeed.

Jia Ji scratched his head, inexplicably feeling a malice. Is someone deliberately targeting him?

"A good Flame Haze Warrior is no worse than a treasure!!"

The divine artifact "Falling Refinement" floated around in mid-air, seemingly very dissatisfied with Jia Ji's undisguised attitude toward treasures, and couldn't help but open his mouth to scold.

Returning to the topic of "Midnight Lost Child."

"Nuclear lighter/infinite famous sword/timed bonfire blessing/automatic power bank..."

Although these things can all be used to describe "Midnight Lost Child," Jia Ji is more accustomed to using an overly ancient word—Chun Ge!

"Yuji, in the future, when you go out to fight, try to choose the time close to 12 o'clock. Leaving a little existence power is enough. If you don't win, start a marathon with the opponent, drag it to the activation of Midnight Lost Child, Chun Ge possesses you, still have the strength to fight... these are all the winning magic weapons I passed on to you."

"Me?" Hearing the first sentence, Sakai Yuji pointed at his nose unbelievably, "Let me go out to fight?"

"If not you, then who? Boy, I see you have strange bones, you must be a one-in-a-million martial arts genius. Learn fist art from me in the future."

Regardless of whether he, who is already a torch, can still practice anything, and whether there is any possibility of growth, in short, let him transfer to a sports student first, settle down fiercely, so as not to only scream "Shana help me" when encountering things.

Jia Ji usually can't bear to look at this kind of Japanese-style Kind-type male protagonist who is a different painting style from him.

The early Yuji is also a pure drag-the-leg player. Later, after the rebirth pool of Starry Palace realizes the Tao, he can be considered truly reborn.

"Possessing strength, killing heart arises."

Even if he can't single out Crimson World denizens, at least he can beat the drums, slash small Rinze, even if it's just running a little faster, it's better than now.

"What do you plan to teach him?"

Shana asked somewhat puzzled.

"Nanto Treasure Fist!"

Jia Ji knew what she meant. Not long ago, after he announced in Yanzhu's place that he wanted to spread fist art widely and let everyone have skills to practice, except for Kanade and Shana, everyone in the group asked for a copy.

At that time, Jianzi also asked: "Group leader, group leader, your fist art is indeed very strong, but it is too dependent on practice. Is there any simple and intense fighting method you recommend?"

"Yes, sister, yes. You can come over later and get infected with a virus, turn into a Gastrea creature, guarantee to help you swallow and evolve to lv4, combat power will soar at least fifty times."

Then, Jianzi was worthy of her name, saw the situation was not good and went offline directly.

Not bad, Sakai Yuji is indeed an ordinary person's quality, a little carelessness might be finished off by a roadside wild dog, leading to everything collapsing. But if the attributes are not enough, can't you use equipment to make up for it?

Remember the first opponent in the plot, it was the Crimson Inoue Shimo King · Fariagné, famous for collecting treasures.
