Curtain 7 Magic Makes the Night Part 3

Night and stars climb up the sky of Gensokyo, and the temperature of the earth gradually dissipates from the daylight, and the air cools. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A round of the moon that has already appeared in the sky.

A few days after the full moon night has passed, the moon is not so round.

And the girls also arrived at the Tengu territory called Yokai Mountain with ten loves.

Tengu is a kind of social youkai, and they are generally very strong, but fortunately, the Tengu group generally does not disturb the people very much, and they all like to stay in the mountains, otherwise it is estimated that Hakurei Reimu and the former Hakurei witches will also have a headache.

Raven Tengu is lively by nature, while White Wolf Tengu is quieter by nature, but neither of the two largest tengu factions has the habit of attacking humans.

Leaving aside the matter of the tengu for the time being, although they are on their territory, since it was brought by the shrine maidens of Gensokyo, and it is harmless to them, I don't think it will be too embarrassing for this group of magicians who come to stargaze.

"Speaking of which, Alice said Marisa, you have a stargazing platform at home, right?"

Yutong Shiai stepped on the ground again, and his eyes turned to the blonde human magician who landed lightly beside him.

The magician, on the other hand, looked in amazement.

"Oh? Alice told you? ”

Then she seemed to think that this was nothing surprising and returned to normal.

"Although there is a stargazing platform at home, and there is a super ~ level telescope made by Xianglin, it is not very convenient at home......"

You directly said that there are mushrooms growing on the bed and floor, and you are embarrassed to let people in, right?

The young man who was complaining in his heart like this saw that the other girls seemed to be thinking about something equally rude, and he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth.

What a magical envoy of personality...... This.

However, he looked at the magicians and shrine maidens who were doing something in front of him, and a smile appeared on his face.

Speaking of which, it is precisely because of this that this stargazing has become an activity of a group of people.

The night sky that youkai see is different from that of humans.

For example, here in Japan, there are many constellation groups named by the yokai themselves, such as [Teemo] [Otengu] or something. Or the seven stars of Draco, known as the Big Dipper by the outside world, fly far away to the immovable star that represents the king of Fudo, that is, the North Star.

By the way, all of the above are from the introduction of the wise magician Patchouli.

She seems to be very interested in the spread of knowledge, and instills basic knowledge in the ten loves, who have no concept of the sky at all.

"Because the North Star does not move all year round, it is considered by the Japanese monsters to be the representative of the Fudo Ming King, that is, the incarnation of the Great Sun Nyorai, as a daily attribute star that restricts the night movement of a hundred ghosts, and the seven-star Draco is a moon attribute constellation that is eyeing the tiger, pointing directly to the North Star, which means eating the Great Sun Nyorai, making the night night walk of the hundred ghosts more unscrupulous."

Saying something like pouring beans like this, Miss Patchouli seemed to start gasping a little again, and after waving her hand to signal that Shiai was all right, she rested on the stone on the side with her chest.

Shiai was a little reluctant, after all, the other party said so much in order to explain to himself, obviously he had a stubborn breathing problem last time in the Red Devil Pavilion.

"Miss Norregi, is she alright?"

"No problem...... Whew...... It's just that it's been a long time since so much has been said, and the air outside is ...... It's a little dry, too......"

The girl's brows were furrowed, and the expression on her face was not so comfortable, and it seemed that this illness was also quite painful.

Compared with the stars in the sky, Shiai felt that this girl needed more attention to herself.

“…… Really, Pachouli, why are you so enthusiastic, it's not that the ten loves won't come in the future, or you should also go to the temple house in the world to be a teacher, it's really funny to see how good you are a teacher just now. ”

The blonde puppet named Alice smiled and came to the side of the Violet Scholar, helping her to soothe her back and puff her breath, as she did not forget to say so.

“…… Ahem, you freshman but gloomy ...... Puppet youkai are not qualified to say that......"

Patchouli glared at her, but she didn't refuse to touch her back.

"Huh? It's really an uneducated old man. Sure enough, when you're older, you can breathe like this, right? ”

The expression on Alice's face became so terrible as she said this!

"Ahem, have the necessary respect for your seniors, little Alice, you are really still too young."

"At least I'm not weak enough to get out of the library, and I'm going to have the demon take care of my body."

"It's like you can live without those dolls."

"Isn't my puppet also part of my magic?"

"Little devils are part of my magic, too!"

"Hmph, it's really a quibble, worthy of a bookworm rotting in the library."

"Where, it's better than a puppet monster who can make a cursed doll with a five-inch nail."

……

Yutong Shiai suddenly felt that there was no place to speak between these two people, so she could only float to the other side with a wry smile.

"Now, Marisa, have those two been arguing like this?"

"Huh?"

Marisa withdrew her gaze from stargazing and shrugged her shoulders as she looked at the two magicians with Yutong Juai's eyes.

"That's it, magic has made this creature always look down on its own kind, and it gets used to it when it quarrels, and maybe friendship will arise from it. Probably. ”

Although I feel that what you said is very reasonable, but can we not want the last two words?

"Don't have that look of disbelief, ten love. You see, isn't there such a plot in Patsy's comics, two people can't get used to each other, fight each other, quarrel, compete, and finally step into the wedding hall hand in hand. ”

It's really a comic of pure love.,It's quite suitable for a flower girl like Marisa.。

"By the way, those two are boys."

…… Miss Norregi, please don't do that!

"Well, anyway, I'm used to this kind of quarrel, it's all harmless things, and in fact, these two people care about each other. After all, it's the same kind. ”

Marisa gave a brief explanation and summary, and after showing a sunny smile of "don't worry", she continued to look up at the sky.

Listening to the high and low quarrel behind him, Yutong Shiai turned around and saw the two people.

The puppet magicians who are taller but are juniors, and the seven yao magicians who are shorter but are seniors, may indeed have a unique friendship between magicians in a sense.

He smiled a little, relieved, and looked up at the night sky.

Immovable Myota, Wyvern, the three stars of the drunken boy, and the Milky Way of the drunkard......

The night sky of Gensokyo is truly beautiful.

At this time, ten loli suddenly came out of the grass not far from them...... No, I'm saying that the baby white wolf tengu came out.

"Don't move——! The Tengu Self-Police Team is here, and if you don't answer, we'll kill you! ”

With that, they had their swords and shields ready.

And among them, the leader is older, and the white wolf tengu who just shouted is the leader.

"Oh, it's you again. It's hard work to patrol. ”

Marisa greeted each other so familiarly.

Yutong Shiai breathed a sigh of relief.

If you know someone, you will probably let it go, and no matter how bad it is, you should be politely sent out of the mountain.

“…… Tengu Self-Police Team, expel ! Especially for Marisa, the mouse, don't leave any affection at all! ”

It's even worse, hey! Marisa, aren't you familiar with greeting people!? Why do I think your reputation in Gensokyo seems to be very bad! People turned their faces directly!

"Ahem, little white wolf, let me tell you about the current situation."

With that, Pache floated over and stopped the white wolf tengu who were trying to use their sword and shield to drive Marisa away, and shook her head subtly.

Is it really okay to be so polite, Miss Norregi, the other party is going to do it.

"Patchouli Archmagician...... Well, let's talk. ”

…… Well, maybe the other party is just targeting Marisa.

Pache then stepped forward to negotiate with the Tengu, while Marisa continued to look up at the stars along with Reimu, who had been completely ignorant of the situation in the first place, and seemed to have great trust in Pache for her negotiating powers.

It's the feeling of "homework is please, I'm going to club activities, best friend".

Hey, that's a good analogy.

The boy who was proud of his metaphor saw the blonde doll's gaze.

"Alice."

He smiled and called out the girl's name.

"Hmm......"

But the other party just dealt with it so simply, as if he didn't care about the ten loves.

She looked at Pache who was negotiating with the Tengu, then withdrew her gaze.

"What do Ten Love think of Patchoulie?"

“…… Huh? ”

Ten Ai saw the lake blue eyes of the beautiful blonde girl staring at her face.

Although it was a little surprising that Alice would care about what others thought of Patchouli, Ten Love was honest about Patchouli's impression of herself.

"Miss Norregi's words feel like a very mature and knowledgeable magician, and probably his ability as a magician has been deeply precipitated over the years."

“…… Yes. ”

Alice didn't seem so pleased with the answer, she nodded perfunctorily, as a thank you to the boy, and walked away.

“……”

It's so strange like that, Alice.

But since the other party doesn't really want to mention it, then he won't ask it.

"Alice, are you alright?"

He chased after him a few steps.

"Ahh

The girl smiled when she saw the worry on the boy's face, and her eyes became gentle.

"Come on, although I can't speak as well as Pachua, if there is anything I don't know, maybe I can answer a thing or two."

After speaking, she lifted her eyes that were shining and moving under the starry curtain and met more eyes in the air.

Yutong Shiai, he also set his eyes on the boundless bright starry sky.

It's beautiful, this world.

It's no wonder that the lord went to great lengths to protect the land.

Then as a sword, you naturally need to work hard.

Yutong Ten Love was born for this.

A smile crept up his cheeks, and the boy's eyes received the light of the planet.

Beneath this endless galaxy.

"Thank you, Alice."

He said it again.

Looking up, looking at the stars, looking at the constellations of the names of youkai in the sky, the boy who is neither a monster nor a human expresses his gratitude.

"Thank you, Gensokyo."

So that I can follow in the footsteps of that adult again.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Pache easily dealt with the group of white wolf tengus, and returned with the help of the demons she had summoned.

It seems that his asthma has become a little heavier during the dispute, and he has to summon the demon to take care of himself.

The demon was a small young female demon who looked like she was not yet an adult, and her long red hair and beautiful face at first made Juai mistake her for a demon who lived by charm.

After a few more hours, after a small tea party discussion, everyone decided to end tonight, and then agreed to have a stargazing tea party together.

"Wow, wow! Look, meteors! ”

"Make a wish! I'm going to stuff money! ”

The two young human girls were so noisy that everyone's eyes were drawn to the so-called meteor they were paying attention to.

…… Hey?

"Ahem...... That's not a meteor, is it? ”

Patchouli asserted.

True.

Yutong Shiai narrowed his eyes.

"Outsiders."

He said.

"It's an alien person or object."

Later, everyone also saw the so-called meteor fall into the Enchanted Forest.

Well, it's not a meteor.

ps: (biting fingers) Woohoo...... Anyone? No moon is alive. …… Uh-huh......
