Three days and moon sect near:!?

Rarely, one of the five swords in the world showed a surprised look on his face.

For a moment, he seemed to want to ask, "What happened to that person", because something like "the ex is gone" doesn't happen to everyone, and he doesn't believe that someone who can get her kind of serious attention can suddenly become a villain boss, so that - there is some kind of irresistible force that plays a role?

...... However, in the end, he just let out an indiscriminate laugh and didn't say anything bad, such as "So you only came to me because you were desperate somewhere else" or "If that's the case, you should die".

As if to see what he had not asked—even in the midst of his anger, he still retained a certain calm sanity, and understood that some words were not suitable to be said directly to poke people's lungs, and this thoughtfulness that appeared in strange places seemed to be a merit of his unknown but involuntarily soft-hearted beauty—the female inquisitor blinked, and her tone seemed to have softened a little inexplicably, and became a little gentler.

"I, admit his affection. She said in a tone that was surprisingly frank.

"He was the first to tell me that I also have merit...... He was the first person to rebuild my self-confidence and guide me in the direction with practical actions. I am sorry to miss such a person. ”

Three Days and Moon Sect Near: "......"

He was silent for a moment, his eyes lowered, not knowing what he was thinking, and the five fingers of his left hand, which had been holding the tips of her hair, seemed to be slowly clenched unconsciously, slightly hurting her, but she did not make a sound.

Then, slowly, he raised his eyes again, looking at her through the shadow in the mirror. His famous eyes in the shape of a crescent moon were now obscured by dark clouds, and they took on an almost black deep blue, bottomless.

"I'm listening. He said slowly, unexpectedly.

Instead of smiling and saying ridiculous words, nor did he say anything profound enough to pierce people's hearts, the most beautiful, noble, and most beloved of the five swords in the world stood quietly behind the female judge of the gods, stared at her figure in the mirror, and said word by word:

“...... Have you finally started to tell me the real truth? ”

"That's good. ”

He paused.

"Yukiba-kun," he lowered his voice, and the low, magnetic voice sounded simply moving.

"Tonight was special. ...... If you have any secrets, I can listen to you. ”

"No matter how embarrassing the truth is...... It doesn't matter how ugly it is. ”

“...... As long as that's what you said to me, I'll listen to you. ”

“...... Got it?"

The Witch was silent for a long time. She quietly looked back at the most admirable of the five swords in the world.

Finally, she slowly curled the corners of her lips.

"I regretted it, but I also said goodbye to him. ”

Without warning, she began to recount what had happened in that room that day.

"I also deeply appreciate the ideals and righteousness that he wanted to teach me......

"I feel like I have a clear conscience...... I've always worked hard enough, and I feel that I deserve to be so favored by him so far, and I have lived up to the righteousness he believes in and upholds—"

She choked up at this, but the tears only flashed in her eyes. In the dim light of the room, it may not be noticeable.

"That's it. Her chin was slightly raised, as if to hide the fleeting tears, and her voice sounded a little stiff.

"It's a simple story...... And that's all it can be now, but fortunately, there is a beginning and an end, and what I want to convey has been conveyed well......"

The five swords in the world were silent for a long time.

Then he chuckled under his breath.

It was not the same as his usual "ahahahaha" demonic laughter, this time his laughter seemed to come from the depths of his throat, low, somewhat depressing, as if he wanted to use that kind of laughter to barely suppress the fierce beast hidden in his heart, and prevent it from coming out to make trouble or destroy the world-

"Hehe—" He chuckled softly, and slowly leaned back to her ear, but this time he stopped near the back of her neck, raised his left hand and held the end of the hair in his hand to his nose, as if taking a deep breath to recognize the scent of the shampoo she was using, and as if he were kissing his lips on the long hair that still had a fresh scent and a faint moisture.

This gesture was full of love and pity, but for a moment it seemed to terrify the female presidual, and in her reflection in the mirror, she could clearly see that her eyes were suddenly wide open, but her body was straightened and did not dare to move.

"Remember? He whispered.

Because he was close to the back of her neck, this time the breath he exhaled between his words lingered in the range of her most sensitive and itchy range, but she did not even dare to shrink her neck, and relied entirely on the intuition of a small animal to stalk her back, for fear of angering the usually gentle and elegant but in fact powerful and dangerous opponent behind her.

"Remember...... What?" she stammered.

The Three Days Moon Sect smiled.

He leaned close to the back of her neck, a movement that made the left side of his face in the mirror almost completely blocked by her, revealing only the right cheek. He suddenly lowered his head and kissed the back of her white neck, which was exposed by the lifting of the ends of her hair, and then raised his eyes to look in the mirror. The expression in the exposed right eye was deep and unfathomable.

"That day, after the battle in front of Sensoji Temple...... To save your life, I once proposed to hide you. He said suddenly, in a tone of extreme politeness—though his thin lips lingered intimately near the back of her neck, touching her skin as he spoke, consciously or unconsciously.

Liu Quan tried his best to hold back the expression on his face, and responded rigidly: "...... Yes, yes. I still remember ......"

Three days Moon Sect suddenly sighed.

"At that time, in order to convince you to agree to my proposal, I even said to you...... I can allow you to go back to this world and stay with the person you feel is important, even if it is a little longer......"

Liu Quan: "Yes, is it......?"

Three days Moon Sect bent his eyebrows slightly.

"Huh~ After all, the lifespan of mortals is limited, ten or twenty years...... No matter how long it is, it is only a brief moment in the eyes of the gods. He smiled and uttered cold words.

"I say, you can go back to the divine realm after that...... I don't care if you give a short amount of time to mortals who have a short lifespan—"

As he spoke, Liu Quan's face slowly sank. In the mirror, her reflection was the same as herself, slowly sinking her shoulders, raising her head, and looking into the mirror at the only exposed right eye of the Three Days Moon Sect.

"Yes......" she replied with a sigh.

"If you think about it, you will feel that you think about me......"

"It's ...... What a generous one. Why did I decline such kindness in the first place, probably...... Maybe it's because that world can't exist without sacrificing a single person, right......?"

The Three Days Moon Sect snorted closely.

"So, at the end of the day, you rejected me once for the sake of Saito-kun's safety. ”

Before Liu Quan could defend himself, "I didn't," he continued with a laugh.

"Before, in Hakodate, you didn't hesitate to abandon me there in order to save Hijikata-kun......"

"And now, you're honestly telling me, there's someone as important as them—"

He let out a long sigh, then closed his eyes and bit lightly on the back of her neck as if in revenge.

"I changed my mind. He said suddenly.

Liu Quan: ?!

For a moment she thought he was going to say something like "I don't like you anymore" or "I'm going to leave this Honmaru, you might as well think about how to summon another 'Three Days Moon Sect'", but he looked up, loosened her long hair, and put his hands lightly on her shoulders instead.

"I'm not going to give you that opportunity to be with someone else for decades before coming back to me. He said coldly.

"Yukiba-kun is a ruthless person...... Why can't you just choose me from the beginning like everyone else~" He sighed leisurely, as if there was still a hint of accusation in his tone.

"Like everyone else, they only looked at me with admiration from the beginning...... Instead of looking back at me when everything is over like now—"

"The five swords in the world, is it just like that in your eyes?"

“...... No!!" Liu Quan blurted out.

Intuition preempts sanity and calm thinking before they can do their job. She blurted out his icy accusations.

“...... It's not because you're desperate somewhere else that you're coming back. ”

She peered through the mirror and looked directly at him standing behind her.

"I'm not the kind of person who is willful and irresponsible, narcissistically thinking that even if I do too much, I can be forgiven and accepted......"

"In my opinion, it is a good end to the old fetters before I will come back. ”

"Because I want to be sincere with the three days and moons...... It's like the three days and the moon have always treated me—can't you?"

The Three Days Moon Sect was slightly stunned. A layer of stunned emotion appeared on the beautiful face. A moment later, his left hand, which was resting on her left shoulder, suddenly gave a heavy push, and at the same time his right hand brought her right shoulder back—

She was taken around by him in a half-circle unsuspectingly, and now she was standing facing him.

His hand slid to her beautifully curved jaw, gently rubbing the skin there.

Then, he flattened the five fingers of his right hand and brought them together, slowly caressing her slightly open lips.

"Yukiba-kun, you can always say shaky words—" he whispered with a sigh.

"But what I said, no matter how beautiful it is, doesn't seem to be enough to make Yukiba-kun really shake—"

His intoxicating, beautiful voice sank like a whisper.

"That's not fair. ”
