Downstairs from the women's dorm, I had just grabbed the stocking sophomore Su Xiaorou dropped when someone pinned me against the wall. They weren't arresting me for being a pervert. An M.C.F. tranquilizer dart was pressed to my temple.
"Xie Feiyu, hand over the Star Core vessel immediately. Anyone who resists will be detained!"
I was completely dumbfounded, until the [Sacred Relic Resonance System] popped up: this ratty stocking had a Star Core fragment embedded in it, the last straw needed to crush the Void Tide.
Even crazier, all my sacred relics were hidden in piles of stuff that could get me socially killed:
• I found the S-rank Muramasa in our homeroom teacher's wig. It even had hair oil on it when I used it to chop down a cultist from the Otherworld Church.
• I dug a "Computational Core" out of my Advanced Mathematics textbook. Qin Mo only managed to complete the protective array thanks to it.
• Even the mouse pad at the internet cafe hid a fragment of a god. When I rescued Lin Xiaoyue, it almost got thrown away as trash.
I thought all I had to do was protect my junior, the Star Core's vessel, and hide from the Void Tide. But Qin Mo dug up Su Wanqing's notes: "The Void Tide swallowed the Divine Realm long ago. Once the gods are gone, reality will collapse too."
As soon as he finished speaking, black mist from the Otherworld Church wrapped around Su Xiaorou. Gripping the still-glowing stocking, I cleaved through the dark fog with Muramasa and shouted, "If you want to touch her, you'll have to destroy this 'divine artifact' first!"
[Tang Guoguo suddenly shrieked: "Senior! The Star Core in the stocking is pulling the Divine Realm toward us!"]
