She took a deep breath and replied in a calm gesture and tone, "...... It's a pseudonym indeed. ”

The fingertips of the Three Days Moon Sect on the shoulder blades behind her paused slightly, and then withdrew.

He slowly straightened up. Although Liu Quan didn't look back, he could also hear the strange meaning hidden in his smiling tone.

"Aha, Xue Ye-kun was unexpectedly honest today. ”

Willow Springs "......"

She had just confessed that she had used a pseudonym to communicate with the "possible family" that Shoji Fujisawa had investigated for her, and Mikazuki had recently praised her for being honest?!Isn't this a slap in the face......

She smiled bitterly, knowing that as the two of them got to know each other better, they revealed more and more secrets, which would make Sanri Moon Zongjin feel unhappy - after all, although he usually likes hahaha's kind and gentle painting style, he still has the arrogance of being high up in his bones and accustomed to controlling all scenes and changes between his impassivity.

And the increasing secrets revealed in her were undoubtedly a clear provocation of his rightful superiority—even though she, as a god judge, was nominally superior to him, and yet the desire for control that belonged to the superior that he hid beneath his gentle and calm exterior mixed with his feelings for her, and turned into an unchallengeable possessiveness—

She had never understood so deeply why his kiss had such a seductive and seductive power. That's because he wants to know her completely, he wants to dominate her completely, he wants her to be completely open to him, without concealment, without secrets, like a blank sheet of paper, and can only obey him. The radiance of her free will, Brilliant and attractive to him, was dangerous, for that would mean that she would leave without warning, where he could not control, and would abandon him without warning, so that all his plans would be frustrated, and all his ideas of the future would be in vain—

This is something he cannot tolerate. She seemed to be able to understand a little bit now.

…… However, understanding his concerns does not mean that she must obey them all.

As the most beautiful, the most elegant, the most noble, and the most admired and sought after of the five swords in the world, he had a long list of the most famous and powerful original owners in the country, and of course, countless heroes who have left their names in history have only appeared in front of him as subordinates of his original masters.

Those people, without exception, had stood in front of him and marveled at him. However, no matter how much you admire him, you can't really own him. Those people can only be recorded in history as his admirers.

And now, standing in front of him was her, who had no advantage except for the title of "master" or "god inquisitor". She was not from any ancient or noble family, nor did she have a luxurious status or title, and perhaps after combining her appearance and force value, she would have a good score, but if she only looked at one of the items of appearance or force value, she would immediately be left with the scum of the heroes in the world or the beauties who left their names in history that he had seen.

She knew very well in her heart that if she hadn't done something he didn't expect in the world she had experienced before, such as falling into the shadows as a god inquisitor, or voluntarily choosing to be killed by him in order to save the world, he would never have really seen himself in his eyes, let alone taken it to heart.

Although she knows that she also has an interesting soul, however, reality is not chicken soup for the soul after all, and an interesting soul cannot really be one in a million.

Not to mention anything else, even Mrs. Ning Ning, who is one of his former masters, is one of the famous "Three Ladies of the Warring States", and she is a rare heroine among women. It would be a fantasy to say that the woman who helped create Toyotomi Zhèng Quán and later supported the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate did not have an "interesting soul".

Therefore, in front of the Three Days Moon Sect, Liu Quan has always felt that he does not have any irreplaceable—or rather, incomparable—advantages.

It's not about self-confidence or low self-esteem, or even feelings – it's just an objective conclusion.

Liu Quan sighed.

…… So,The gods and the magical girl,Are they really two incompatible creatures in the world.。

"Maybe you've already guessed a little—" she said, putting the terminal in her pocket, in an almost surprising, unusually frank tone.

"I'm not a person who lives in the age of 2205. So, even if Fujisawa-kun had found a so-called 'family' for me—to put it bluntly, it would be just strangers with whom I had an inseparable blood relationship and who didn't know me. ”

The Three Days Moon Sect was silent for a moment.

Under the twilight spring scenery of Honmaru, the flowers and trees in the garden give off a fresh fragrance at night. There are unknown insects that chirp crisply in the darkness of the night. Against these beautiful backgrounds, Liu Quan only noticed that the most beautiful person among the five swords in the world behind him, although he didn't speak for a while, his snort was a little heavy, which showed that his heart was shocked and tumbling at this moment.

For some reason, his reaction made Liu Quan feel a little more relaxed - it turns out that you are also surprised? Don't you always look calm, as if everything in the world is a last resort?

Thinking so, she suddenly had a bad taste—she ignored his surprise and continued to throw a large zhà dàn at his head.

"Also, the pseudonym 'Han Yue' I used actually comes from a sentence in a Chinese poem~"

She spread her arms at her sides, suddenly turned around from the right side, tilted her head to look at the three days moon sect whose eyes seemed to be slightly wide, and said with a smile

"That poem is 'Irrigate the cold spring by the moon'—"

Then, without waiting for the Three Days Moon Sect to respond, she raised her right hand and waved it lightly in the air.

Something wonderful happened.

As her right arm waved as if dancing, she squirmed her lips to utter something incomprehensible, unfamiliar string of syllables, and then a long stream of golden dots of light flowed from her fingertips. The points of light jumped, first merging into a long line in mid-air, and then the golden line zigzag and surging like water waves, and finally formed several Chinese characters—

Take the moon to irrigate the cold spring.

Three Days Moon Sect Near!!

He had never seen such a wonderful sight before—some kind of advanced magic or illusion, presumably.

However, even if he had inferred in his heart that he was extremely close to the truth, it still could not immediately diminish the surprise and shock that he had in his heart.

It wasn't the first time he'd seen the kind of magic she had, of course. Again, however, he was fascinated by the wonderful skills she excelled at.

That's really...... It's a beautiful vision that I've never seen before.

It's just beautiful...... Even he, an old man, feels a little dizzy?

It was as if the vague anger that was tumbling in her chest had faded in that moment, and the bad feeling that she had been repeatedly exploring her secrets, only to be frustrated by the new facts, seemed to have diminished a lot—all because she had been hiding this magical spell all along, but she used it at this moment to please him, right?

He also had a little study of Chinese characters and Chinese poetry, so it took a little effort to identify what the five Chinese characters were, and he also roughly guessed the meaning of the poem based on some inferences. But that's not the point—the point is, of course, he knows the second word in the poem.

"Month".

His gaze fell on the word. And she seemed to notice this, smiling and shaking her arm slightly. The golden handwriting that appeared in the air trembled slightly, and suddenly a ripple appeared like a string of water droplets in the sea.

She smiled and said, "As you can see, the second character of the kana I used is pronounced exactly the same as the second character of this poem~"

Three days and moons, the sect is near"...... Oh, yes. ”

He asked rhetorically in a gentle, noncommittal tone, as if he had not been at all affected by all the wonders that had unfolded before him.

She was not angry at all, but pursed her lips and curled the corners of her lips, as if there was a kind of secret joy in proddedness, for she saw through him as if he were not as careless as she seemed on the surface, and she smiled and blinked, and said, "I use one of the words in your name as my pseudonym—don't you be a little moved by it?"

Three days and moon sect near the "......"

He was silent for a moment, then slowly slowed down the look on his face, and smiled slightly at the corners of his lips.

"Indeed, I was a little impressed. He replied in a breezy tone.

"I didn't expect Xue Ye-kun to be able to do this in order to make me happy~" said this, and his pleasant voice seemed to bring some real pleasure.

"Ahahahaha. I still don't know what Yukiba-kun's real name is, but I use one of the words in my name as my pronoun......" he said, his end gradually lowering, and finally it seemed to turn into a sigh.

"Xue Ye-kun~ You really know how to make a man who likes you happy?" he sighed as if it were true or false.

Liu Quan's head was confused.

“…… Huh?!"

Without her deliberate maintenance, the golden handwriting made of magic spells and floated in the air suddenly disappeared. But she couldn't do anything about it now—because the Three Moons suddenly leaned forward, erasing the distance between the two of them in an instant, and then flexed the index finger of her right hand and gently pushed her chin with the knuckles, bringing her face closer to his leaning face.

His voice was slightly lowered, and it sounded unusually hoarse.

“…… Where did you learn it? I...... Curious, huh?"

Liu Quan: "!!No, no—"

Before she could finish her sentence, the epilogue was drowned out between his hidden lips.

“…… No. He stepped back a little after a moment of kissing, but his lips were still almost pressed against hers, and he said with a somewhat unsteady breath, "I suddenly realized that I didn't really want to know those details—"

Liu Quan's heart almost jumped out of his chest. She was out of breath because of the kiss just now, and she whispered as if out of breath, "No...... I didn't learn that kind of thing...... It's just—"

“…… Hush. Sanri Yuezong shrugged softly, and gently bit her lower lip again, stopping her from saying the next.

"It's so unpleasant to think about—" he whispered.

"So I decided—"

He didn't say anything, and the coda disappeared between the lips of the two men.

A gust of wind blows through Honmaru. The canopies of the green trees in the courtyard rattled, and small leaves fell from the branches.

Liu Quan closed his eyes, slowly wrapped his arms around his waist, and tilted his head slightly, feeling the kiss with the warm scent of grass on a spring night.

Some things are gradually growing and sprouting as the weather gradually warms up on this spring night.

The gods and the magical girl can be together, in fact, it's like a miracle.

…… As long as we stay together, we will understand each other one day, right?
