In the middle of the night, Ragnar, who had been cleaning up Lumia's room for a long time, slept on the warm bed, although Mistya **, Ragnar did feel the feeling of hell......

Ragnar quickly fell asleep - the white sky, a large meadow, the fragrance of flowers everywhere, Ragnar lay on the grass, enjoying the fragrance of flowers and the comfort of the meadow.

At this time, in front of him, a blue long-haired girl wearing a white dress appeared, with long braids under the long hair, tied with a bouquet of white flowers, quietly, and with a gentle smile staring at Ragnar, Ragnar felt that the air was instantly much heavier, and slowly opened his eyes.

"Where the heart desires, there is no bloom...... Ragnar-kun, please remember one thing......" the long-haired girl said.

"Huh...... Who are you......"

"Forgot to introduce yourself...... I'm part of your dreams...... My name is Ling. ”

A mysterious girl named Ling, her long blue hair looks more and more beautiful and gorgeous as the breeze blows.

"Part of my dreams...... Is it...... First time meeting, hello, Ling. ”

Ragnar reached out to hold Ling's hand, but unfortunately, he couldn't grasp it, and as soon as he tried to hold it, his hand passed through it like air.

"It's useless, I'm not an entity, I said, I'm part of your dream, so Ragnar-kun, just listen to me, just say a word......"

Ling's expression grew sad, and she pleaded with Ragnar, who agreed without thinking anything.

"Okay, okay, I promise you, what are the words?"

"That's it...... Don't give up on yourself...... You can't give up your resolve and the people you want to protect...... Well, if you want to come to me, just call me in your dreams. ”

After saying that, joy appeared on Ling's face, holding a jasmine flower, the petals fluttering in the wind, and Ragnar holding the petals scattered on his hand.

"Where the heart desires, is there no bloom......

Ragnar thought this as the blue-haired girl gradually disappeared in front of Ragnar, accompanied by Mistya's voice waking him up:

"Shopkeeper, get up!"

"Uh......h Is it morning...... I'm sorry, Mistia, for taking the trouble to wake me up. Ragnar rubbed his tired eyes and said apologetically.

"As long as the shopkeeper likes it, I wake you up like this every day...... I feel so ashamed to say ~!"

Misty walked out with her red face covered, and Ragnar said helplessly something that a stand-in messenger often said:

"DA☆ZE...... (That's enough)"

After changing his clothes, Ragnar took out his long-lost red coat from his closet, picked up the ceramic greatsword and put it behind his back, and walked out of the room.

Because Wenwen ate some of Ragnar's education yesterday, as Ragnar said, he wrote a letter of apology in the newspaper: "As an outsider from the outside world, Mr. Ragnar has given me some complaints, and this reporter Wenwen sincerely apologizes to Mr. Ragnar, and will not write any more nonsense in the future. ”

After reading the apology letter in the newspaper, Ragnar shook his head with a smile, threw it on the table and went to the door.

At this time, the little devil went to the Hakurei Shrine according to Pachouli's request, and there were a lot of fallen leaves in the shrine, presumably the owner swept it casually and went to be lazy, the little devil thought so, and the owner of the shrine, Hakurei Reimu was lying on the stove table and sleeping.

The little devil pursed the corners of his lips and walked over to wake her up: "Miss Reimu, Miss Reimu, get up!!"

"Wow! It's scary! Really, it's almost winter, so you can't let people rest!"

"It's still autumn...... Miss Reimu, why do you have no sense of time...... By the way, Patchouli has something to look for you. ”

"Isn't that master known to be omniscient and omnipotent, how did he find me? Reimu picked out her ears without restraint.

Seeing this, the little devil said, "That...... Miss Reimu...... Pay attention to etiquette. ”

"What is that, can you eat it?"

"I'm starting to think that the Shrine Maiden is really undisciplined...... Not even the etiquette ......"

"Just discovered?"

"Forehead ......"

The little devil was so confused by Reimu that he couldn't speak, so he took out two copper coins and threw them in the money box outside the house.

The crisp sound resounded through Reimu's heart, and he flew out of the house from the stove table, just like the time stop of the sixteenth night of Saki, and two teacups appeared in an instant, a pot of green tea that had just been brewed, and a few senbei shells, and the little devil felt like he was in a certain place, and he was uncomfortable!

"Then Miss Reimu, I'm starting to say it. ”

The little devil took a sip of tea, coughed, and began to say: "That's right, Mr. Ragnar will start semi-demonization tomorrow, and Lord Pache is afraid that Mr. Ragnar will not be able to support the power of resentment, so he asked you to go over and help Mr. Ragnar." ”

"Poof!what?!!Ragnar wants to be half-demonized?Why didn't you tell me!" Reimu said angrily as she took a sip of tea.

"That's because...... Ragnar-kun didn't tell us beforehand, and we just knew. ”

"This Ragnar, it's really a shame, I saw in a book that to carry out semi-demonization, not only do you have to go through three trials, but it also takes a year of life to open semi-demonization as a price, it is a mode that can only be opened as a last resort, is this death!"

The little demon stopped Reimu's anger and hurriedly persuaded him, "Don't be angry with Miss Reimu, maybe Mr. Ragnar wants to go beyond his limits in order to gain more power...... I'm afraid he would dare to go into hell......"

“…… Well, I'll promise you a trip to the Red Devils, but I can't guarantee that Ragnar will come back alive, so I'll do my best to make him bear the power of resentment...... It's also a reward for helping me with housework. ”

Reimu prepared the rune and a few copper coins, closed the door of the shrine and followed the little demon.

Inside the Red Devil Pavilion - Ragnar looked at Lumia, who was eating a lot, and lost her appetite for a while, so she took the lunch box that she hadn't eaten and went to the iron gate, and Hong Meiling, who was standing next to the iron door, was punished by Sixteen Nights Sakuya because she was lazy, and after deducting lunch time, she was really hungry and couldn't stand it, so she had to wait for her savior, and Ragnar gave her a lunch.

Sure enough, Ragnar walked out of the iron door and handed the lunch box to Hong Meiling, "Here, are you lazy again...... Look at you starving like this. ”

Hong Meiling felt the benefit of having a colleague, and said to Ragnar gratefully: "Thank you, Ragnar-kun! How do you know that I can't eat lunch after being punished?"

"I've been watching you sleep......"

"Oops...... Is that so, sleeping too long and forgetting that you exist......"

"You obviously had to sleep last night, why are you still not energetic today?"

"That's because, before you came here, I couldn't go back to my room to sleep every day, and I couldn't exhaust my fatigue for many years, so I was so unenergetic. ”

After Hong Meiling finished speaking, she sent the food to her mouth, although the bento was still the eight-eyed eel made by Mistia, but Hong Meiling and the others still felt that they couldn't get tired of eating it.

Ragnar heard the footsteps of two men, one slightly lighter, the other a little heavy.

The white-haired man squinted and looked ahead, and the two figures slowly walked towards them, becoming clearer and clearer, Ragnar saw the little devil who was still wearing a black silk uniform and glasses, and Hakurei Reimu, who was walking and swaying without manners, Ragnar felt strange, what is Reimu doing here?

Reimu looked at Ragnar and turned her head without saying anything, and the little devil said, "Ragnar-kun, it was Lord Pachouli who specially asked Miss Reimu to come and help you through the trial, so don't be surprised. ”

"Really...... It's been a long time, Reimu. ”

"Long time no see. ”

Although he responds to Ragnar, his eyes always do not look at him, which makes Ragnar distressed.

"See you tomorrow, then, Mr. Ragnar. ”

The little devil bowed to Ragnar and walked into the Red Devil Pavilion with Reimu.

The sky gradually became dark, time flies, for the monsters who have lived for hundreds of years, it is simply like a day, Ragnar guarded the door for a day, and no one broke in, even the Marisa who always stole books did not come, and promised Pache to catch Marisa before, but unfortunately he didn't know Marisa's residence.

In Ragnar's room—

Misty was sobbing beside Ragnar's bedside, what Patchouli and Ragnar said last night was overheard by her, it was because she was afraid that her loved one would be lost due to an accident, Misty held it in her heart and did not say it, Ragnar's gentle smile, and his reliable back, and his serious fighting appearance, would make Michera feel very painful.

"The shopkeeper's ...... Please...... Don't be fine...... Please......"

Ragnar, who was outside the door of the room, also heard Mistya's crying, in fact, he was ready to come to his senses, but he couldn't help but give up what he had now, and said a word to Misty inside through the door:

"I'm sorry, Mistia, I'll definitely come back alive. ”
