"So, Nagato, you're actually an alien, aren't you?"

"Yes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"What does that 'information integration and thinking about the young body' mean?"

“……”

"Nagato?"

"The lecture is expected to take 35 minutes."

“…… That's it. "I've just learned his kind of explanation without inhibition, as boring as boiled water, and the content is so profound that it makes people dizzy, thirty-five minutes? I'll be asleep in three minutes!

This is the third day after Yuhiko Nagato "repaired" Ikesoto and Hirai, and since he shot to rekindle the two "torches" that had dissipated and replenish a large amount of existential power, he fell into a coma and slept for two days and two nights. He didn't seem to have a family, so Yuji and I took turns taking care of him, and it just so happened that after this shift change, he woke up.

To say that these days,It's not that good things haven't happened.,Yesterday morning,Saori-senpai who has been silently finally came.,She resurrected Ike and Hirai.,But she didn't treat Yuuji.,The reason is-

"You have a very magical treasure in your body, so you don't have to worry about running out of existential power at all." At that time, the beautiful goddess who had no human fireworks said, "Frankly speaking, your current state is far better than that of ordinary humans, and you can even live forever, isn't it very worthwhile to give up such a body and become a human?" ”

She didn't explain more, but just her serene and gentle temperament convinced us.

Saori-senpai didn't explain why she came so late, but just told us that she was going out for a while in the future and might not be able to contact her for the time being.

"Don't go to the beach, remember!"

Then, just as she had arrived, she smiled and disappeared into the air, leaving only a faint golden glow.

After Saori's predecessors came, Yuuji seemed to have burst into potential, burying himself in the stave every day in addition to exercising, and humming a few tunes from time to time, supposedly to compose a song for the Fire Mist Warriors - I think he was actually just trying to use this method to pursue Xana!

What was a little unsettling was that from that day on, it suddenly started to rain in the late spring, which was supposed to be relatively clear.

It's raining not only in Kanagawa Prefecture, it's raining not only in Japan, it's raining all over the world.

Although the rain was not heavy, this meteorologically impossible situation has caused the whole human society to panic, and many religious scholars have been citing scriptures to promote absurd ideas such as the "Great Flood".

The Traveler Mutual Aid Alliance has also been a bit weird recently, and Saori's predecessor sent a text message to all the people, hoping that anyone whose strength has reached the realm of emptiness and invincibility will contact her.

"There may be a big event in the near future that requires everyone to work together." She said it vaguely.

I didn't know what was going on, but there were already people on the forums asking "Did that happen?" "Do you really want to make a big PK? "Eighty-eight strong thugs are not enough, we need to participate in the war? Something like that.

Saori senior didn't answer all the time, but just posted a post just now, and it seems a little melancholy to look at the tone.

"Perhaps, peace is better than war, right?" "It's just men and women, there'......s no reason to pull the whole world into the water," she said.

As a result, in just ten minutes, there were more than 1,000 replies, all of which were "veto!" "We want war!" "Shove that dead pervert into the deepest part of the earth's crust!" "PK count me in!" Such an angry roar.

In the end, the third "Eight Brothers" on the list launched a signature voting post, with the title: "Are you willing to let the eldest sister marry the undersea pervert who threatens her with our family?" ”

The result was obvious, of course, because that vote was only "Day of the day!" "Explode his juhua! "Bullet him JJ" three options.

In fact, there are occasionally a few inconsistent voices, such as "Big Snake, didn't you kill the Heavenly Evil Lone Star, and the whole family died a long time ago?" Such a reply (signed by Wan Gui)

And just as I was watching Yaki and Mangui quarrel and click "play him JJ", Nagato woke up.

Because I don't know his home address, he has been living in my house for the past few days.

Unfortunately, I found it difficult for Nagato and I to speak a common language, and I could understand every word he spoke, but when the words were combined into sentences, I realized that I didn't understand anything.

Sure enough, there shouldn't be so many courses......

This maddening chicken-and-duck talk continued until Yuuji and Shana returned, and surprisingly Yuuji and Nagato were able to talk, though I really didn't understand what they were talking about.

So, I could only concentrate on eating bread with that arrogant little girl.

"You only eat pineapple bread?"

"It's delicious."

"Actually, Ms. Sanae's bread is delicious, too," I kindly handed her one, "No, I'll give you one." ”

Xana hesitated, but took it.

"I've always felt that Ms. Sanae is a very talented person, and eating her bread can make me, a dull fool, associate art and philosophy......"

The girl held the bread she had just taken a bite of, motionless.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

There was no answer.

"I say- Arastel right? Xana: What's wrong with her? Sleep deprivation? How do you eat and fall asleep? ”

"What kind of ingredients is that bread made of?" The voice of the Red King sounded a little surprised.

"Of course bread is made of flour." I pulled out the instructions at the bottom of the food bag, "Main ingredients: flour, mustard; Ingredients: cod liver oil, oysters, strawberry jam. I especially recommend Miss Mizuse Akiko's secret strawberry jam! ”

No wonder it tastes so good today, it turns out that there are other people's secrets......

It's just that the whole night, Xana looked sluggish.

I'll just say, a little girl, no matter how strong she is, she can't stay up late every day, it's not good for her health.

Yuuji and Nagato's conversation was actually not long, because Nagato was really not a talkative person, and in general, he explained a few points:

1. He is an alien and belongs to a species called "Information Integration Mind Body", this species has no physical body, it is completely composed of the combination of various information to generate consciousness, and then evolve by absorbing information. He was born in the core of the galaxy and is currently just a young man, traveling through the galaxies, absorbing information and promoting his own growth - as far as I understand, he is just a student who has come from the center of the galaxy to Earth.

2. His means of saving Chi Suren and Hirai Yuan is the instinct of information integration and thinking body: information operation. The essence of all existence is that information is combined according to specific information, and the person who is eaten into the torch loses his own ability to distribute information, resulting in the inability to supplement the information absorbed from the outside world into the body's information circulation, resulting in information only going in and out, and it will naturally die out in the long run. His approach was to fix consulting errors in an attempt to restore his ability to dispatch information. Unfortunately, the information error of those two people at that time was too serious, and all the information had reached the point of complete collapse, and he could only make the information temporarily compensate for it, and slow down the process of its information collapse - that is, he was able to let the torch absorb the power of existence around him, but it was a great burden to himself.

3. In view of the morality of information integration and thought, he cannot tolerate the behavior of the "gangster" to wreak havoc on the stability of information, and will do his best to help us fix the information error in the city - this is best understood, we have an extra volunteer army from the depths of the galaxy!

4. The reason why he appeared there that day was to buy the hardcover edition of the "Dictionary of Anthropology" that had just been published—after all, he was an international student, and it was normal for him to be diligent and studious......

To be honest, if it weren't for Yuji's "translation", I doubt I would have been able to understand those words.

After explaining these things, Nagato got up silently and was about to say goodbye and leave.

"You...... Recovered? ”

"Information is normal."

"Oh," I couldn't help but ask, after a moment's silence, "where do you live?" ”

Nagato wordlessly pointed to the sky outside the window.

In the dim night sky, you can see a saucer-shaped flying object with a shimmering light - a UFO?!

What a stubborn alien who doesn't follow the locals!

Just as he was about to jump out of the window, I suddenly remembered something very important!

"Wait! Nagato: You're very knowledgeable, aren't you? "I'm an international student from a developed society, so I think I'm pretty good at translating texts......

Nagato turned his head and looked at me silently.

I quickly found the book of "The Book of Stars", which was no different from the Book of Heaven: "This, can you help me translate it?" ”

Nagato took the book, glanced at it, and spoke.

"Bronze Text."

"What?" Bronze, text, how do these two words connect?

"Please, please be more detailed."

"The third planet of the solar system was about 3,500 revolutions ago, and we are now in the region, and the inhabitants of the western continent have carved words on the surface of bronze utensils such as food and religion." He replied.

O God! Please, can you speak a language that I understand! At least a little pause!

"Isn't that China's 'golden text'?" Yuji understood, and he could say the official name of the script in one bite.

Not a single Japanese high school student is familiar with Chinese culture -- the ancestors of China, please forgive me for being a descendant who does not learn and has no skills......

"Anyway, can you translate?"

Nagato read the thin booklet in just half a second, and then began to read it aloud in his usual uninhibited tone.

Is he really speaking Chinese? Why can't I understand what he's saying after studying Chinese for more than 30 years?

This time, apparently even Yuji was confused.

"Stop, stop! Nagato, what are you talking about? ”

"Read."

"Why can't I understand?"

"Not enough information."

…… It's good for you to just say I'm uneducated......

As a result, Yuji reacted first, he thoughtfully took the book full of strange characters, read it for a while, and asked, "Nagato-san, are you talking about the language of the Shang Dynasty?" ”

"Yes."

Oh, my God! Who is Chinese between me and him!

"Can you give us a list of phonetics and paraphrases?"

Yuuji! You're a smarter person than me! How I didn't think of this!

A few minutes later, we looked at the dictionary-thick "translation" marked with the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and were speechless.

Nagato, I appreciate you for providing such informative references, but is it necessary to translate so much into a dictionary when a dozen pages are only six pages long?

Sighing, Yuji took the information that I didn't know whether it should be counted as the "Translation of the Constellation Sutra" or the "Jinwen Jin Translation Daquan".

"Uesugi, I'll help you sort it out."

Yuuji, you're such a good person!

After sending Nagato away (assuming that flying directly into a UFO is considered a "walk"), Yuji hung up the phone at his home, sat down at his desk, opened the two versions of the "Sutra of the Stars" from the gods and aliens, and began to read them against each other.

Xana was in a daze, Yuji was helping me translate materials, and I wasn't going to chat with a weird-looking pendant, and I was embarrassed to leave my friends to exercise by myself, so I could only dig out the textbook I read last time I didn't know when I read it, and do my job as a high school student.

Frankly, the body of this world seems to be suffering from "textbook narcolepsy", and the upper and lower eyelids start to fight as soon as the textbook is in hand, so when I wake up from a deep sleep, the sky is already slightly pale.

Xana was still holding the bread blankly, but Yuji didn't know where to go.

Worst! He couldn't have been attacked by "apprentices" because he had a secret treasure, right? The treasure in his body that I don't know what it is, but even the goddess Athena is amazed!

The sound of chanting from the roof dispelled my worries, and I hooked the window and jumped lightly, jumping in front of Yuuji.

It's just that the situation of Yuji is really weird now:

The heavy translation was thrown aside, and the thin "Sutra of the Stars" floated on his chest as if it had no weight, but there was no handwriting on the page, only a vast and endless sea of stars, countless stars running according to their own trajectories, and half-human and half-beast star illusions kept appearing and disappearing in the sea of stars, and occasionally there would be scenes such as nebula rotation and giant star explosion, the whole thing was a wonderful picture of the coexistence of magic and science fiction.

Yuji himself, on the other hand, was already in a state of distraction, staring up at the sky in a daze, his mouth emitting strange syllables, somewhat similar to Nagato's tone last night, but with a mysterious rhythm. If Nagato's reading is an obscure text that cannot be understood, his chant is an elusive and wonderful poem.

As a guy who has some talent for music, he can read the rhythm of such awkward ancient texts, and now I'm looking forward to the song he's writing!

Turning my eyes to the unpredictable sea of stars again, I was not surprised to find that the sea of stars in the "Sutra of Stars" was responding to his chant and producing unpredictable changes.

As the morning star in the sky was also obscured by the morning sun, Yuji recited a spell in a loud voice, and the "Sutra of the Stars" suddenly vibrated violently, and then turned into a white light and rushed into his body. The flame in his chest, which was not vigorous, then swelled violently, like an erupting volcano, and the boiling flames forced me to subconsciously take a step back, and then these flames of light were retracted like flowing water. It's just that the pale flame has become as deep as the night sky, and countless flickering points of light are like stars, constantly jumping in the flames.

Things have come to such a point that even the most obtuse people know what's going on:

Yuji practiced the "Sutra of the Stars".

It would be a lie to say that I am not depressed by someone who has been given the reward I have so desperately obtained, but—looking at the translation at my feet, which is thicker than the red bricks, I really do not think that I can take the effort to learn it.

Perhaps, the real destined person of this thing is actually Yuuji......

But it's not okay to swallow my baby without paying a little price!

Yuji Sakai, you're in for lunch today!
