The ground is slippery.

The momentum of the snow that had been drifting all day had weakened, but the snow that had fallen had turned into ice, making the road extremely smooth, and it was not easy to walk from the entrance of the Western-style building to the large iron gate.

Normally, it takes half an hour to get from the Western-style building to the school, but this time is obviously more difficult.

"Aosaki-kun, you take out Aoko's bicycle from the inner court."

Hearing Youzhu's words, Zi shook her head and refused.

Aoko's bicycle is a special custom-made item, and it is a collection that she cherishes, and Purple couldn't touch it casually before.

But that's not why Purple refuses to use the bike.

“…… The bike is still too slow, and you can't ride too fast if the ground is so slippery, so it's better to use a more convenient tool than that. ”

“…… A more convenient tool? No...... Aosaki-kun, are you going to use that? ”

Youzhu asked hesitantly.

But it seems to have touched something, Youzhu's reaction is half a beat slower, and the turn in his tone is also unnatural.

"Well, in front of the spirits of nature, my magic doesn't play a big role, it's better to use it as a driving force, magic is such a thing, it's a more convenient way to accomplish the goal, isn't it?" Purple's expression was slightly helpless.

It's not that he doesn't know how to ride a bike, on the contrary, he has beads...... Well, Purple wisely ignored Yuzu's strangeness.

“…… That's right. Aozaki-kun should be enough to support it, but ......" Youzhu glanced at Purple's back, and stopped talking.

"As long as you don't mind Youzhu, of course I'm welcome, don't misunderstand me that I did it on purpose."

The magic that Purple wants to use is a burst of mana.

Infuse your limbs with magic to gain powerful explosive power in a short period of time, although it doesn't last long to travel, but it is enough to get to school...... However, in this way, the purple magic power will be consumed at least half, and it can only carry Youzhu forward.

It sounds like a deliberate advantage, but Purple really doesn't have such an idea...... In such a sinister situation, of course Zi would not have other thoughts, and it was impossible for Youzhu to coax her.

“…… Forget it on purpose. ”

Youzhu suddenly walked forward.

The addition caused Yuzhu to be dissatisfied, as if to accuse her of not understanding enough.

"No, wait, Youzhu, it's me who is wrong, I'll take you to the back mountain immediately, please forgive me for what I said before."

It's not good, mental sluggishness leads to speech without brain.

"It's me who is wrong, for Qingzi's sake, don't be angry yet."

Zi immediately apologized and hurriedly ran forward to appease Youzhu.

The girl stopped.

"Come on, it's very windy, and it may be cold and uncomfortable in the middle, so cover your hat more tightly."

Purple squatted down.

"As long as Aosaki-kun doesn't think it's troublesome."

Youzhu's tone was very unfriendly, but because of the urgency of the situation, she still put her hands on Zi's shoulders and pressed the weight on Zi's body.

Very light weight.

It is effortless to carry on the back, and from the outside, it looks petite and thin, and the weight is quite in line with the appearance, and the body is also cold and cold, cooler than snowflakes.

"It's time to go." Purple starts the magic circuit.

"It doesn't matter if I hold you, do I feel like I'm going to have trouble breathing?"

"It's okay, I can hold it, there are beads, you have to hurry."

After Youzhu's strength stabilized, Purple was ready, and then roared away like a bullet.

“……！”

The astonishing speed surprised Youzhudu.

The strong wind pressure hit Youzhu's cheeks, and Youzhu could only bury her head and cling to the back of Zi's neck, letting her hat resist the strong pressure.

"Woo......"

The girl couldn't help but let out a soft whimper, feeling the girl's discomfort, and Purple slowed down slightly.

He was also sad as a travel tool, the pressure on his limbs and the outside world was concentrated on him, and the rapid consumption of mana also made the circuit feel uncomfortable.

Feeling the girl's breath and sending warmth to the girl's cold body was something he could rarely be comforted at this time, even though it seemed so insignificant.

At night, the streets were already empty, and Murasaki and Youzhu were running through the snow-covered streets.

Gradually, Purple's limbs became a little numb.

But the fuel is not exhausted, and they are still dutifully effective.

The scenery quickly fell backwards in the field of vision, and suddenly Purple saw the moon rising in the sky.

Then he swelled with indescribable joy.

Purple remembered the oil of the moon.

“…… It's great that the beaded demon is still there. ”

Thinking about it, since Yuzhu was not directly involved in the battle with Orange, her Moon Oil and Bridge Giant still survived, and even she herself was not hurt much.

This can be said to be the luck of misfortune.

Although the memory is vague, I can vaguely remember that Youzhu is the same as Sister Qingzi, and what happened to Sister Orange is not good, so speaking of which, he is not useless.

Not yet a complete loser.

Although Sister Qingzi is still facing a life and death crisis, Youzhu is safe and sound, which is the greatest comfort, but when he has to face the golden wolf, he will have to be more attentive.

“…… There's still a chance to make amends. Ziwei sighed undetectably, and was swept away by the wind.

The girl's ears on the purple back moved, raised her head slightly, and then lowered it again.

"Good."

The girl's whispers were also transmitted to the wind.

The snow slowly stopped, but the wind was stronger, and in the face of the strong wind, a faint purple glowed in the purple eyes.

◇

The old school building is on the back of Misaki High School.

Behind the campus is a continuous forest, and through the forest, there is a snowy field.

This is the original campus, now it is just a wilderness, and in the middle of the wilderness, there is a dilapidated wooden building, which is the last vestige of the old campus.

In the middle of the snowfield, Aoko slept with her eyes closed.

If there is no dazzling red, I believe this will be a very beautiful legendary scene, but the fact is that the protagonist of the scenery is already weak, and life is like a candle in the wind, which may be extinguished at any time.

The orange magician stood silently in front of the wooden house, waiting for the arrival of the guests.

Sure enough, the guests arrived.

Although it was four or five hours later than expected, it was still in time.

"Sister Qingzi!"

When the panting Purple saw Aoko, she hurriedly ran forward, summoned the remaining magic power, and began to heal.

Youzhu was right behind him, and his eyes kept staring at the orange not far away.

"I won't do it, there are beads, and letting the guests taste the sweetness first is also a way of hospitality."

Orange took the initiative to say hello to Youzhu.
