Within Izuki Karuta's field of vision, a black mist rose from the lake's surface.
That was... the familiar malevolent aura of 697!
Moreover, the amount of malevolent energy was quite substantial.
Izuki Karuta was most familiar with this, and with a little perception, he knew that there were tens of thousands, or even millions, of them.
Besides the abundant essence of heaven and earth, there is also a wealth of malevolent energy waiting to be absorbed.
If all goes well, the gains from this trip could be comparable to a month of hard work.
But a hint of caution appeared on Izuki Kōda's face at this moment.
Because that malevolent energy was clearly being suppressed here.
Having lost the suppression of the essence of heaven and earth, it will probably soar into the sky very soon.
Such a massive amount of malevolent energy likely already possesses rudimentary sentience.
If they are allowed to escape, they could harm many people.
Just then, a figure suddenly darted out of the lake.
Izuki Karuta had been watching the lake closely, and her attention was unconsciously drawn to it.
It was a young girl, looking flustered, swimming quickly towards the shore, her long, wine-red hair quite striking.
But what's even more striking is her skin, which is whiter than lake water, and her stunning figure.
The young woman swam while looking back from time to time, completely unaware that there was a person standing on the shore.
The lake water suddenly boiled at that moment, and a plume of black smoke shot into the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Tsk, what a pity..."
Izuki Karita frowned.
It's all that girl's fault for distracting him, allowing that evil demon to escape.

"who are you?"
"How did you get in?"
"The devil is watching!"
After the girl got ashore, she noticed a figure by the lake. She shouted loudly and then began to mutter incantations.
Izuki Shigeda could clearly sense that a strange energy was gathering around the girl.
Before the girl could finish reciting the incantation,
Izuki Karuta kindly reminded:
"Um...you might as well put your clothes on first."
"You'll catch a cold if you stay like this."
The fact that the girl is here proves that she is no ordinary person.
In addition, there's his wine-red hair and his ability to use magical powers.
The girl's identity is about to be revealed: the only being in the Conan universe who knows how to use magic—the witch, Koizumi Akako!
"You demon, don't try to deny it!"
"You must have read my thoughts and become the coolest person I can think of!"
"Don't think you can seduce me by pretending to be that fortune teller!"
Koizumi Akako glared fiercely at him and continued muttering to herself.
It seems that they believe Izuki Karuta is the embodiment of the evil spirit that was released from the lake.
Otherwise, how could their auras be so similar?
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Since you like it this way..."
I respect your hobbies.
Izumi Shizuta shrugged helplessly and took the opportunity to carefully examine Koizumi Akako.
In terms of looks, Koizumi Akako is no less attractive than Mouri Ran, their figures are comparable, and she possesses a captivating charm in her eyes and brows.
It is enough to make the opposite sex fall at her feet easily, and it has the potential to bewitch all beings.
However, Izuki Karuta had some doubts.
Koizumi Akako's chanting speed is really too slow.
It took a full minute to read.
Izuki Karuta also looked around carefully, from top to bottom, for a full minute.
"I'm warning you, don't get too arrogant!"
"If only I hadn't forgotten my weapon today."
I would have cut you in two long ago!
Koizumi Akako also knew that the spell's pre-casting animation was too long, and she even offered a couple of explanations.
"Demon, don't you dare run away, take this!"
With the magic finally gathering enough energy, Koizumi Akako shouted and launched a magical attack.
An invisible ball of energy slammed into Izuki Shigeta at high speed.
Izuki Shigeta was startled, his heart filled with alarm:
The power of this attack was not as obvious as the tremor that shook his whole body.
How did Koizumi Akako suppress that million evil spirits beneath the lake?
This technique does indeed seem to have an attempt to draw away the malevolent energy from his body.
However, since the innate evil body is flawless, this technique is completely ineffective.
In terms of power, even if it were to hit the demon, it wouldn't have much effect.
"Oh no! Why isn't it working?"
"The demons are so difficult to deal with!"
Koizumi Akako panicked. This was her full-force attack. The demon was completely unharmed.
What left Koizumi Akako even more at a loss was that the demon was rapidly approaching, clearly preparing to retaliate.
"You demon, just you wait!"
"I'll definitely come back and get you!!"
Koizumi Akako made a harsh statement and then ran away.
Izuki Qing Tian was stunned by what she heard.
He had originally wanted to find out more about the demons lurking beneath the lake.
Unexpectedly, Koizumi Akako was so frightened that she ran away.
Based on the direction Koizumi Akako fled, the clothes should be on the other side of the lake.
Furthermore, Koizumi Akako's overly innocent demeanor just now...
Izuki Shizuta didn't want to force his way after them, lest he cause too much of a commotion.
If we wake Shirley, it will cause unnecessary trouble.
Perhaps the essence of heaven and earth has been completely absorbed, rendering it unable to influence the weather around the mountaintop.
Twenty minutes later, the sky gradually darkened, and dark clouds gathered.
Worried it will rain,
Izuki Karuta woke up Akemi and Sherry, who had been asleep for almost an hour.
They left the lake area with the two sleepy girls in tow.
We returned to the cherry blossom tree where we had our midday picnic.
"The weather changes so fast."
"We probably can't camp tonight."
"Let's hurry down the mountain."
Vermouth suggested.
Actually, she was more curious about where the three of them had gone.
