44. Homecoming
On the golden field, points of light continue to fly up the night sky and dissipate.
The interweaving of the past and the present is gradually separating under the night sky.
When Zihui stood up with all his strength, he saw such a scene.
The miracle of magic, as it is called, is coming to an end.
Aoko had fallen asleep in front of the abandoned old school building, desks and chairs flying around her, but she didn't dare to approach.
Judging from the deepening scars on some of the tables, Aoko had "studied" the fairy tale monsters she was interested in in the past few minutes.
Purple walked over and picked her up.
Use the princess hug position instead of carrying it up.
ββ¦β¦ It's very light. β
The emotion left for Purple is still the same, Aoko's weight is more in line with her identity as a girl than her appearance.
Aoko's sleeping face was quiet and content, and it was hard to imagine that she was still unleashing an overwhelming magic bullet attack a few minutes ago.
Purple only felt relaxed from this moment, and fell off the shackles in her heart, although she also felt a slight sense of emptiness, but it still couldn't resist the joy that filled her body.
He no longer has to worry about losing this sister anytime and anywhere.
Well, and oranges.
ββ¦β¦ What about Sister Orange?? Purple suddenly remembered another key question.
"Here."
The voice of the witch acting as a bystander prompted him at the right time.
Looking in the direction pointed by Arizu, the orange, still unconscious, was suspended in the air by the palm of the giant of the bridge.
Against the backdrop of the huge size of the bridge giant, the orange is as small as the dead grass under its feet.
"Are you going to use this to take Sister Orange back?"
"Of course you can't just follow it, but thanks to you, it can become less noticeable." Youzhu seemed to reply to Purple gratefully, and whispered a mantra.
The size of the giant of the bridge suddenly shrank sharply under Purple's gaze, and in less than a few seconds, it shrank to three or four meters, which was only twice the size of Youzhu.
"Ahhh......h Well, that's no problem, I still want to thank you, without your magic, I can't even stop Sister Qingzi's magic bullet. β
Purple eyelids jumped, lightly skipping topics like gratitude.
The girl's casual mention made him smell uneasy, and since she hadn't had a seizure yet, the sooner she ignored it, the better.
"Since we are on the same camp, it is natural for us to help each other...... Don't you care about how Aoko is? Youzhu glanced at Qingzi and asked in a flat tone.
ββ¦β¦ Let's merge time. I don't know the specifics, but in short, after the world is corrected, Sister Qingzi will return to normal, right...... Did Sister Qingzi say anything to you just now? β
During the period when Purple lost too much blood, he almost relied on the instinctive reaction of long-term practice to use surgical treatment, and he had no time to pay attention to the movements of the outside world.
ββ¦β¦ It's nothing, Aoko is interested in the old furniture influenced by SNARK, and it seems that this old school building also carries a lot of her memories. β
Youzhu raised her head and cast her gaze on the old wooden house in the wasteland, and it took a moment to withdraw her gaze.
Snark refers to the oil of the moon, and when girls talk about their demons, they usually refer to them by their names rather than words to describe them.
"It doesn't matter, when the mechanism set up by Sister Orange is removed, it will be no problem for Sister Qingzi to visit as many times as you want."
Purple said confidently.
"You're happy...... Aosaki-kun, this result is a big win for you. Congratulations, you've won two magicians of extraordinary strength, no, or it's not quite right to describe it as a competition between magicians, when Aoko and Orange still recognize that you are their younger brother, they have already lost, in fact, you have already won since you were a child, because you have been preparing for this from beginning to end, and you have not taken care of it. β
Youzhu's voice couldn't be heard in praise or criticism, but Purple still caught the worry in it.
There is also a faint anger.
"Not in the future, moreover, it's not just Sister Qingzi and Sister Orange, it's you ......"
Before she could finish speaking, Purple interrupted her voice with a sharp sense of shame.
He tilted his head slightly, looking at the landscape that was about to dissipate.
Youzhu's expression was thoughtful, his eyes flashed, and he didn't continue to ask.
Holding Qingzi, Purple walked a few steps, and then looked back at the scenery.
ββ¦β¦ Aosaki-kun? β
"After a few minutes, only me and you will be left to remember this scenery, after all, I still made Sister Orange lose important memories."
Purple's expression was full of apology and nostalgia.
Orange will never know what it was like when she was oppressed by her grandfather to break off her relationship with the Aozaki family.
"What Orange has suffered is nothing more than a slashing wound, and there is no substantial loss...... I think that's the best outcome, no matter which one it is. β
There are beads that affirm the practice of purple.
"Yes, thank you."
After receiving the girl's comfort, Purple couldn't help but feel a little grateful.
Adjusted the position of her lower arm to make Aoko's posture more comfortable, and Purple followed Youzhu into the forest.
ββ¦β¦ Aosaki-kun, I have a question. β
Entering the forest, the girl suddenly asked.
"Say it." Purple replied casually.
"When I approached you, Aoko was still on a different timeline than you, how did you hit her? As far as I know, you don't have the power of time. β
Youzhu pretended to be expressionless and asked, and her tone was careless.
This--Purple thought about it for a moment, and subconsciously touched the card that was withdrawn.
"This is Silver...... Well, that's the power of the Wind Elf I summoned. β
"Silver?"
This is the name of the wind fairy in mythology and legend.
"Well, although Sister Qingzi is performing an act similar to time travel, but at the moment of the attack, Sister Qingzi will definitely return to the timeline of reality, this time is very short, according to my reaction nerves, I will definitely not be able to keep up, but Sylph can...... It has no attack power, no defense, and its only ability is to perceive...... That's why I was able to catch that moment and hit Sister Aoko. β
Purple unreservedly told the girl all the abilities of the cards.
For Youzhu, he didn't feel the need to hide it.
"You can observe the ...... time," the girl pondered.
But before thinking about it, she didn't forget to recall the Moon Oil, which was still in effect.
Although this most vicious monster did not like to obey the orders of its master, it reluctantly turned into its main body and returned to Youzhu's hand after repeated calls.
The cold wind blew in the early morning, blowing the beaded black clothes.
Purple hugged Aoko a little tighter to keep her from being exposed to the wind.
"It's the coldest in the middle of the night, go back quickly, there is no shortage of ingredients in the kitchen, just enough to make a hearty breakfast, Youzhu, what do you want to eat?"
Habitually asking the girl next to her, Purple showed an expectant smile.
I don't know why, for a moment, the girl held her breath.
Inadvertently, how long has it been since you got used to this natural attitude towards him?
There are beads on the side of the cheek.
"It's not just a mess."
The girl's tone was mischievous.
"There was no such thing, I was forced to do so, who knew that I would still get dizzy after sleeping for so long......"
During the period of deep sleep, due to the invasion of the Sandman, Zi once fried the food in the pot, which has never happened since he was ten years old.
But perhaps because of the hard work of taking care of him, the girl still ate half of it.
But it's better not to use this as an argument.
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing Purple hurriedly distinguishing it, the girl forced a smile and quickened her pace, so that her expression could not be seen by Purple.
But Youzhu thought of another question.
ββ¦β¦ Is she heavy? Heavier than me? β
The answer is obvious.
The girl was also looking forward to hearing the answer of "Youzhu Light", and just wanted to hear him say.
Zi was entangled for a while, but still replied seriously: "Although it is a different type of girl, but you really want to be light, you really want to be light, I am very worried about the light." β
Although the girl's weight is a secret, according to Purple's estimate, it is about seven or eight kilograms heavier than Youzhu, and it is enough to make Sister Qingzi crazy.
"That's it, it's terrible to be heard by Qingzi." Youzhu's eyes widened slightly, and she stroked her lips.
A mischievous tone as if he was about to sue.
"Eh, to tell you the truth, don't tell Sister SΓΉ Qingzi that I said it."
The corners of Youzhu's mouth curved upward, but she didn't slow down because she didn't want to show her smile too much to others.
Purple quickened her pace and followed.
Gradually, the snow fell again.
A spell put an end to this battle of the magicians.
On the empty streets, only the princess and the boy remained, stepping into the night, leisurely on the journey home.
