Chapter 53

"Why are you so proud to say that......

Not being fooled by the man's smile, Marisa's gaze coldly swept over the chuckling Valkyrie. It is clear that the emotion that flashes in the girl's eyes is not admiration.

γ€Œβ€¦β€¦ What a bad guy."

Hearing this merciless evaluation, the smile on Feili's face did not collapse in the slightest. If I hadn't heard the girl's disdain with my own ears, I'd have thought Marisa was praising him.

Such a quiet self-cultivation...... Is it due to his broad-mindedness or the deep city?

-- I'm afraid it's a bit of both.

After criticizing the man, Marisa angrily focused on the witches and the undead who were still competing with the barrage, which made her feel more comfortable than the guy next to her who made her angry, or those bizarre and gorgeous barrages.

However, it seems that the man has no intention of letting her get her wish.

Looking at the girl's side face with soft eyes, Feili called the girl's name in a gentle voice that was not objectionable.

"Marisa."

…… The sound in her ears made Marisa tremble.

"Why are you so proud to say that......

Not being fooled by the man's smile, Marisa's gaze coldly swept over the chuckling Valkyrie. It is clear that the emotion that flashes in the girl's eyes is not admiration.?

γ€Œβ€¦β€¦ What a bad guy."

Hearing this merciless evaluation, the smile on Feili's face did not collapse in the slightest. If I hadn't heard the girl's disdain with my own ears, I'd have thought Marisa was praising him.

Such a quiet self-cultivation...... Is it due to his broad-mindedness or the deep city?

――――I'm afraid it's a bit of both.?

After criticizing the man, Marisa angrily focused on the shrine maidens and the undead who were still competing with the barrage, and it was more comfortable to feel better than the guy next to her who made her angry, or those bizarre and gorgeous barrages.

However, it seems that the man has no intention of letting her get her wish.

Looking at the girl's side face with soft eyes, Fei Li called the girl's name in a gentle voice that was not disgusting.?

"Marisa."?

…… The sound in her ears made Marisa tremble.

The girl can't stand it the most.,It's a soft voice that flies.?

If it's a rough reprimand, Marisa's personality is just a big grin. But it seems to have seen through the girl's temperament, and the man standing beside her at this moment has not had any scolding. He always used the softest attitude that made him want to smile back.

But Marisa hates Feili's attitude.

It's not that it makes the girl feel sick. She's just unbearable.?

The gentle voice seemed to whisper like a man's lips next to her ear, and every time she heard it, Marisa's body shivered inexplicably.

This time was no exception.?

Faced with the power of pulling herself back to the real world from the barrage of her heart with just one sentence, Marisa casts an angry gaze at him.?

"You must have never seen anyone with a really bad personality...... Otherwise, you will know how gentle I am to you."?

Bearing the girl's sharp gaze safely, Fei Li said softly with the same attitude as a child.

His words stunned the girl, who was still indignant.

As Fei Li said, at least he was always irreproachably tolerant of Marisa.

Maybe sometimes he will be mercilessly teased, and sometimes he will look at the girl in an embarrassment with a smile. It is precisely these qualities of men that make Marisa sometimes want to eat him alive.

But at the same time, in times of crisis, she will lend a helping hand to the girl, and in the depression of will, she will rely on the person who is also the eight wills.

No matter what kind of guy the man is, at least he's never been sorry for Marisa. Therefore, the girl did not reprimand Feili's position unreasonably.

Realizing this, Marisa was speechless.

However, if she didn't say anything, she would look weak, so she still said in a sharp tone.

"So, that's why you have fun watching people in the shadows and running around?"

Marisa's words were unexpectedly sharp, and her eyes widened as she calmly flew away.

The girl looked directly into the man's face, as if to see what other words could come out of his handsome lips.

However, Feili did not waver from this. Although he was dumbfounded by the blonde girl's calm and sharp white-snatching, he was far from being speechless.

Rather, he became more and more interested as he looked at the thorns hidden under Marisa's shining eyes.

"Indeed. My attitude towards you is not a benchmark for my personality."

Fei Li's right hand held his jaw and said words of approval.

But Marisa still stared at the man without relenting, she knew Fei Li quite well, and knew that this man would never take his accusations lightly――――― no, it should be said that it was because the person who said these words was herself, that he would not accept it.

If the person who is talking at this moment is Reimu, he should have already admitted it with a Taguan who can't find fault with it.

Why is there such a big difference in attitudes towards different people?

Marisa couldn't figure it out. In fact, she didn't think much about it, because the very realization of this fact already made her unhappy.

Fei Li didn't notice the girl's subtle mood, and continued to say in an emotional tone.

"If you think about it, it may not be clear to watch events in the dark, but it would be too much to say that I'm bad. I'm just bored."

"Bored?"

There was a sudden change in direction in the topic, but Marisa still asked a knee-jerk rhetorical question.

She really wanted to see in what direction the man could pull the topic in, anyway, it was nothing more than an angle in her favor.

"When people get older, they feel like they have nothing to do. Although I still haven't given up on the practice of "martial arts". But it's hard for me to improve my strength anymore...... That's why I want to make myself more fun every day, day in and day out."

A handsome young man in his early twenties lamented his decrepit age, which was undoubtedly a scene that made people laugh. No matter what he says, no one will believe him.

But there was no falsehood in his calm voice.

"It's really complicated to look at you guy and say that he's old......

If you say sad words, it's not that serious, but at this moment, the flying words do reveal some vicissitudes of emotion.

So Marisa just muttered something with a strange expression.

It is also at an age that cannot be said to be young...... There are still slight differences between men and women.

For example, the martial god who is frank about his age, and the youkai sage who always calls himself a seventeen-year-old girl. Although the latter is actually only a joke, the gap between them has already shown the tendency of the two.

"You look young."

"Physically, too."

Fei Li responded to the girl's words that were almost comforting.

"But...... The freshness that belongs to young people is gradually disappearing. As my knowledge grows broader, the things that make me feel new and interesting begin to become infinitely narrower. Marisa, is this what people often call "decay"?"

――――― not like that.

The negative can be blurted out immediately.

But when she saw Fei's fierce expression, Marisa didn't say it.

The man looked up at the sky, but instead of focusing on the ornate barrage, he saw something that only existed in his own impression through the infinite and far-reaching sky.

That's not sentimental. You can see it by the slight curvature that emerges from the corners of the mouth.

"That's why I like to watch events happen without being noticed. My presence interferes with the mood and choices of the "parties", but only decisions that come solely from me are the most interesting."

"Watch me solve the mutation...... Do you really find it interesting?"

Marisa looked at Hiri with suspicion.

Noticing the girl's obvious gaze, Fei Li withdrew his gaze from the sky and smiled softly at her.

"It's not much fun to solve the mutation. Whatever it is if it is you...... I think it's still very appealing to me."

It's even more powerful than the straight punches that come on. Marisa's smaller body shook imperceptibly.

Hearing Feili's words, the girl was suddenly speechless.

Because this man, in some casual way, touched some part of her innermost heart.

Unfortunately, he himself is not aware of this.

After a period of silence, Marisa spoke slowly in a tone full of helplessness and abandonment.

γ€Œβ€¦β€¦ You're the worst."

"Yes, yes."

Of course, this kind of frivolous accusation is only exchanged for Feili's insincere promise.

If it weren't for the fact that her eyesight was good enough to see through the girl's flush hidden in the shadow of the brim of her hat, Fei Li would have almost mistakenly thought that she was angry.

But now―――――― can only say that she is still too young.

The man who was secretly snickering in his heart turned his attention back to the barrage station in the air.

…… There are such people who can slightly affirm their own happiness by identifying the misfortunes of others.

There are also people who are interested in witnessing the suffering of others and using it as food to relieve the emptiness in their own hearts.

Not as a wicked person who causes misfortune, but as a despicable appreciator. Which of the two is worse?

A cheerful girl like Marisa naturally can't understand the existence of such a person. So naturally she didn't know...... What kind of guy is the man he trusts?

A warrior who may have fallen into the dark side a long time ago because of the emptiness of his heart, he has a restrained, hugely vicious nature.
