Chapter 279: Reason -
"Well, that's pretty good. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Info is a type I've never encountered before—"
He nodded as if he was affirming something.
"Shiori-san, I like you very much. Let's go to Gentian Temple from tomorrow!"
“………… Huh?"
- In an instant, I couldn't understand what Miku said, and I couldn't help but open my eyes.
"...... to Gentian Temple?"
"Yes. Please be sure to transfer to another school—"
"The ......"
Shido tapped his headphones twice with a grimace. Soon the sound of the piano was heard.
“…… There was no reaction here. At least not like it's a joke!"
Shidao became even more confused. What exactly is Mijiu talking about?
"What the hell is she trying to do? …… I didn't want to spoil her good mood, but it was too risky. Find a way to adjust in other aspects, and refuse it here!"
Jean said so. Shido nodded in the affirmative.
Mijiu saw that Shido didn't answer, thinking that he was worried about the transfer of schools, so he continued.
"Of course, you don't have to worry about money or study. I'll ask the school for good. By the way, can you tell me the address and the size of the clothes -- I'll have them send the uniforms over today!"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I can't make an easy decision about that kind of thing!"
After Shido finished speaking, Miku stood up and sat next to Shido with a smile on her face, then gently took Shido's hand and leaned her mouth towards Shido's left ear.
then
"-Please"
Make such a subtle and coquettish sound.
“…… Huh!?"
Shido couldn't help but close his eyes. The moment the voice pierced the eardrum, a sudden burst of intense dizziness struck.
It gives the illusion that words invade the body from the ears and directly impact the brain. The whole consciousness is in a dizzy state as if drunk, and wants to affirm what Miku said in a state of self-forgetfulness.
However, he soon realized that he was in danger if he continued like this. Biting the flesh in his mouth, trying to endure the past.
"That's it, even if you say that......"
"Huh?"
After hearing Shido's answer, Miku's eyes widened in surprise. He closed his mouth as if he was thinking about something, and stared at Shidao.
"Shiori-san—?"
"What, what's wrong......?"
"--Please take off your clothes!"
Miku once again said to herself with the same "voice" that could resound through her brain just now.
"Eh, eh, ......!?"
Shido, who understood what Miku was saying after a few seconds, had already dyed red on his face.
"I, I'm going to be very troubled......"
I don't know what Miku's intentions are when she says this, but one thing is clear, that is, the moment she takes off this girl's school uniform, the magic will disappear from Shiori-chan.
After seeing Shido's appearance, Miku straightened her body as if she had learned something.
"Sure enough, you won't listen to me—"
"I'm sorry, but what you said ......"
Before he could hear Shidao's words to the end, Miku made a sound. -- And the words she spoke,
"Are you, too—elves?"
The "voice" that hit Shidao's consciousness more violently than before.
"Eh-"
Because of the word she suddenly spoke, her body couldn't help but stiffen for a moment.
"Why, will say ......"
"Shidao!"
When he heard the sound of the piano, he cheered up, and Shido seemed to be waving his hands while perfunctory.
"You,What are you talking about all of a sudden? Are you talking about the game? It's a bit of a surprise.,Miku doesn't look like that-"
"Ahaha, that's enough—you don't have to prevaricate. After all, people who don't listen to my 'wishes' can't be ordinary people—"
Miku said with the exact same smile as before.
"Actually, I'd be happy if it was an elf. “
"What......"
"I said, Shiori-san. Who are you? Are you really an elf, or are you a companion of those who call themselves magicians?"
Then, after exhaling lightly, he continued.
"Is my meeting with you just a coincidence?
"That's, that's ......"
“…… I'm starting to get agitated. If you continue to pretend to be confused, your previous efforts will be in vain!"
Just when Shido didn't know how to answer, Koto said.
"I can't help it...... It's a bit of a gamble, so let's get into direct negotiations. Shidao, tell her!"
“…… Got it."
Shido swallowed his saliva and faced Miku.
Then he spoke after making up his mind.
“…… Mijiu. I'm not an elf. Nor is it a magician. It's human. “
After Shido said this, Miku sighed softly, showing a disappointed expression.
"It's a pity. Shiori-san, why are you lying like this-"
But he has the power to seal the spiritual power of the elves. “
It's like trying to cover Miku's words.,Make a steady voice.。
Miku opened her closed eyes and stared at Shido's face again.
"Seal the spiritual power—what's going on—?"
"That's ......"
Shido began to tell bit by bit.
I don't know why, but I do have that ability.
As long as you use this ability to seal the spiritual power, the elves will not be targeted by AST, and they will be able to live smoothly in this world.
After the explanation was over, Shido looked Miku in the eye and spoke.
"What if...... If you want to believe what I say, Miku, I--want to save you!"
“…………”
Miku didn't respond in any way, and listened to Shido's words in silence, narrowing her eyes as if she were thinking, and putting her hands to the corners of her mouth.
Silence, flowing in the reception room. The sound of the clock moving and the beating of the heart suddenly became distinct.
I don't know how long it took, but Miku exhaled softly.
"-I see. I believe you. Your voice doesn't sound like you're lying, either!"
"......! really, really!?"
Shido asked, his eyes wide open. To be honest, such a ridiculous statement, I thought that even elves would not believe it easily.
After seeing Shido's reaction, Miku smiled wryly.
"What's your reaction? It's like you've always thought I wouldn't trust Shiori-san—?"
"Well, that's because..."
"Hehe, I'm sorry. I did a little bit of a prank. “
Standing up as she spoke, Miku walked slowly to the window.
"To be honest, I'm a little surprised, but Shiori-san doesn't look like he's lying. -- And even though our meeting was deliberately made, shouldn't we be glad that we wanted to save me because we wanted to save me?"
"Ahh......h
Suddenly feeling a little shy, Shidao couldn't help but scratch the back of his head.
“…… Could it be that Shiori-san, has he already had the experience of sealing the power of the elves?"
"Ah, yes. Sealed three people~"
"Really? I didn't even know there were so many elves living here. I would like to see you once, can I ask you?"
"Of course, everyone will be able to get along with Mijiu!"
Shido's breathing became rapid. Seriously, this time it's a spirit with a steady personality. In this way, it will be possible to smoothly
When thinking of this. Shidao noticed another problem.
Speaking of which, Shido hasn't told Miku about the method of sealing spiritual power.
From Koto, I know that both the value of favorability and mood state is pretty good, but it's hard to say whether or not you'll be able to kiss honestly. The rope that had been loosened in Shidao's heart was tightened again.
"Well, what about the method of the seal......
Then he said to Mijiu in a worried tone. But-
"Ahh
"Huh......?"
Miku said halfway through her eyes.
- I believe what you say. But I don't need to seal my spiritual power—"
"What......"
Because of the unexpected answer, Shidao couldn't help but hold his breath. At the same time, the sound of the piano came from the right ear.
"Cut...... Did you come up with this trick?"
Miku took a leisurely gesture and moved her lips like petals.
"Because you think about it. Even if I have spiritual power now, I can live a very rich life. So I don't have to give up my power at all. I want to be friends with you, but this thing and that thing are completely different!"
"That's, that's ......"
Shido could not refute it. It was exactly what she said.
The purpose of the priesthood, and at the same time, Ratatoskr is to seal the spiritual power so that the elves can live in peace. But this Diva Miku, even without the help of Ratatoskr, has been living in this world for more than half a year.
"Don't say anything stupid!"
However, the piano vibrates the eardrum of Shido with an unpleasant sound.
"What is the elf that caused the space earthquake just a few days ago!"
"Ah......h
"Besides, those guys at AST don't care what kind of elf mind you have. As long as it is detected that there is a spiritual reaction, it will kill mercilessly. Now that the truth has been exposed by the kite origami, she will definitely be included in the surveillance. There is no time left. -- I can't be shaken by her, Shidao. If she just leaves Miku alone, she will definitely hurt the things she values!"
After being slapped on the head by Kotori, Shido clenched his hands into fists. - That's right. If Shido gave up here, it would bring misfortune to Miku, and the world around him.
"Mijiu, you caused a space earthquake four days ago...... Doesn't that mean you can't completely control your own power, does it?"
After Shido finished speaking, Miku put on a surprised expression.
"Oh-? you know that you really know-"
"Huh...... That's from origami. “
I made up a random reason to deal with the past. Although Mijiu frowned, she didn't ask.
"It's still dangerous. If you leave your spiritual power unattended like this, you may one day hurt your friends or fans. Please, let me seal Mijiu's spiritual power......!"
Talking directly into Miku's eyes.
But Miku slowly shook her head after exhaling softly.
"I'm glad you're worried about me, but it's useless—"
"So, why is that?!"
Shidao asked. Then Miku replied unwaveringly.
"Because--that space earthquake was triggered by my own will-"
"Huh?"
For a moment, he couldn't understand what Miku said, and his eyes widened in astonishment.
Indeed, there are elves who can cause space quakes of their own will. So it's no surprise that the other elves, Diva, in front of him, can do this.
But even after understanding what she said, there were still doubts in Shidao's brain.
"For, why...... You're going to do something like this?"
This is a very basic question. Because he had no idea what Miku's motives were for doing such a thing.
So Miku kept the same posture as before, playing with the ends of her hair as she spoke.
"The first time I met Shiori-san, I used to say. I love the feeling of being on the stage!"
“…… yes..."
Nodding. As Shiori's first time they met, Miku did say something like this.
"I happened to be passing by there when a certain band was performing a concert at the Tiangong Grand Theater. - And then, I noticed one thing, and speaking of which, I've never stood in the Tiangong Grand Theater and sang—"
“…… Huh?"
"Then I suddenly wanted to sing. So~"
Miku smiled in a cute pose.
“…… And for that reason—just!?"
Shido twisted his face and shook his throat as if he had seen something unbelievable.
"Just because of this reason or something, don't you think it's too much-"
"That's because...... There's a lot of people around there...... if someone doesn't get out in time—"
"That can't be helped. Because, I really wanted to sing?"
On Miku's face, I didn't see any guilt.
It should even be said that she seems to have completely failed to recognize this behavior as a bad thing.
“…… Don't you have any ideas? Causing a space earthquake or something, you actually do this kind of thing......"
"That's what you say...... I'm too~"
"What if your friend, yes, the girl you're with from school today, is there!?
Shido shouted loudly, and Miku once bobbed her gaze back and forth as if she was thinking about a problem, but eventually returned to Shido.
"That's really ...... I'm embarrassed—"
"Right!?So—"
"I'll have to spend time looking for other girls I like~"
"-, eh......?!"
Shidao couldn't help but doubt his ears.
