Gift 6 Volume 6

With just the unrolling of the scroll, the colourful [Kouen City] was gradually
turned into a shade of black, white, and grey and the colours of the surroundings were just stolen with
that move.
The sudden change caused Izayoi to be placed in his highest alert.

(This is......Wiping out the colors from the city?!)

If one were to forcefully give a description of that scene, it would be
similar to the spray of ink into the air.
However, the strange sight did not seem to end there. What was taken
away from [Kouen City] was more than the loss of the brilliance and
colours for even the movements of the residents
had also been frozen.

The "混" character guy held his sides as he laughed loudly. Judging from
his words and actions, it would seem that his technique was supposed to
freeze Izayoi‘s movements. And Izayoi had only played along by holding
still to try figure out the technique activation.

(I see. This black and white world is the result of “虚度光阴”......?


Collating all these information, Izayoi deciphered the phenomenon of the
black and white landscape before him.

(Considering that he stripped away the colour
the phenomenon of taking away part of the light spectrum,
we can safely assume that he used some sort of technique to cause time to stop.
But from how this scene is playing out, the metaphorical appearance should also be taken
into consideration as well.)

And since this Gift was that strong, it should
come with some additional
conditions for it to be usable. If only the condition were to be fulfilled by
the kidnapping of children, it would explain the serial 'Kamikakushi‘
incidents.

But, such a strong Gift being used only on small children? That was a
conclusion that made Izayoi seethed in anger.
He coldly swept back his hair.


"Ha. As a 'Kamikakushi‘, I guess you can be said to have quite a good
technique......But if I were to describe it, it would surely be the worst type
of skill."

"......Heah....Hah?"

The despicable laugh suddenly stopped in mid-laugh.
The fellow with the "混" character
had finally realized that his technique
had not worked on Izayoi and his laughter immediately became an
exclamation in surprise as he backed away three steps while roaring:

"Wait, give me a moment! Why are you still able to move?! You are able
to see me right?! If that‘s the case, why didn‘t my technique work?!"
