"What a coincidence......

Falling lightly to the ground, the youkai sage who came out of the gap told a lie that anyone could hear.

"Did you have a coincidence? If it's a beautiful woman, then I'm very happy......

Removing all the expressions on his face, he saw his old enemy, but he didn't overreact.

"Oops...... I'm pretty confident in my appearance......

Looking at Yakumo Zi's pretentious regretful appearance, Fei Li snorted coldly.

"You really should have confidence...... But ......"

The obvious turning sentence is that Fei Li looked at Yakumo Zi with a gaze that could already be said to be rude.

The gaze crosses the demonic beauty and the bewitching body curves, and there is no trace of lust in it, but there is a very abnormal coldness as a man.

"It's a big question if anyone dares to ask for a woman like you...... If you had to use an analogy, you're like a gorgeous insectivorous flower, beautiful and deadly."

And Feili will never be those bugs who are attracted to her.

"Doesn't it seem like I'm not attractive?? I'm a little relieved."

With his right hand resting on his plump chest, the monster sage breathed a sigh of relief, and then winked at Fei Li again.

"If I were the woman no one wanted...... Isn't your mother, who is similar to me in type, the same and no one wants?"

Even Feili had to admit that his mother really had nothing to do with adjectives like integrity--and she, who was also a sage, was indeed surprisingly similar to the monster sage in front of her in some ways. But......

"If no one wants me, you don't have to worry about it. Yakumo Purple."

「…………」

(I...... Is there something wrong? ）

Yakumo Zi was silent, but her eyes that were mixed with admiration, surprise, and surprise made Feili feel very unhappy.

Especially when this kind of look appeared on the woman in front of her, the flying mood index plummeted...... But he wouldn't let Yakumo Murasaki know about it.

"I'll leave if it's okay...... Anyway, it's a coincidence, and you're sure you're going to be okay with me."

After saying this, without waiting for an answer, Feili had no nostalgia, turned around and left.

Since it's a "coincidence", it's almost as good as saying hello or something.

At least, that's what Feili thinks. And put it into action.

Putting ideas into practice immediately may be called recklessness, but sometimes it can also be called decisiveness; But not everything you want to do, and you actually do it, and then you can succeed.

At least, that's true for the current Feili.

"Let go."

Turning his head, he looked at the hand that grabbed his back collar, and said expressionlessly.

"Don't be in a hurry to go, the weather is clear today, the wind is smooth, don't we have a long talk?"

"I don't have much to talk to you about. Let it go."

"No, no, no, that's definitely your delusion—how can there be nothing to talk about?"

It's really remarkable, the average guy was given such a cold reception by Feili, and he must have turned around and left without looking back. But the monster sage in front of him can still speak here with a cheerful smile that is hypocritical, which has to make Feili a little admired.

This is not cheekiness, but a spirit that will not give up until the goal is achieved, and will do whatever it takes, and can give up everything, including dignity, to achieve victory.

However, although he has a little admiration, he also does not plan to learn from the yokai sage.

"What the hell are you going to do?"

With a slap of the hand that was tightly gripping his back collar, he turned around and came face to face with Yakumo again, his tone full of tiredness.

There was no need to doubt that there must be something wrong with the monster sage--she could pull her face to such an extent that if it was just to fight him here, Feili would have to wonder if she was someone else in disguise.

Although even self-esteem can be sacrificed in order to achieve the goal...... But the dignity of the big monster is not so cheap, and Fei Li knows that this woman never does meaningless things.

"I just wanted to ask why you meddled...... This mutation doesn't matter to you at all, does it? It should be okay to leave it alone."

"Who knows? Reason: This kind of stuff doesn't mean anything to me at all, I just act according to my mood and just have fun...... Reason: If this is such an inconsequential thing, let a guy like you come and find me a random one."

Facing Yakumo Zi's question, Fei Li looked like he didn't care about himself, and shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

However, it is clear that this big truth did not satisfy the youkai sage.

Reminiscent of the purple crystalline eyes narrowing briefly for a moment, it was one of the signs of Yakumo's impatience - even if it was only for a moment, but this was not missed by Flying Force.

"Looks like you're impatient...... Why, exactly? Yakumo Purple? About this...... I think I know something."

「……」

She didn't speak, and even her expression didn't change at all, but the air around her was already filled with heterogeneous magic and demonic energy, and it was clear that Yakumo's mood was not as relaxed as she looked.

Ever since before, she didn't like Feili.

Even as enemies with different positions, there are also phases, so the compatibility between her and Feili must be quite low.

Unlike Yakumo Murasaki, who cares about the gains and losses in his heart, Fei Li never cares about these, he just acts with the boiling blood in his heart, and in the eyes of the youkai sage, he is like an unstable bomb, with the possibility of exploding at any time.

Moreover, he is not the kind of reckless man who only acts by will, with the bravery of a lion and the cunning of a fox, if it is difficult to deal with it, in Yakumo Zi's heart, Fei Li will not be inferior to his mother Yayi Yonglin by half a point.

"I said, you'd better adjust your emotions, or your smirk won't last."

The sarcastic words did not stimulate Yakumo, but instead made her return to her normal heart, worthy of a monster sage, and the tension in the air was no longer there.

"I guess what I mean...... You should understand, right? Don't meddle in this mutation. Valkyrie."

"Hmph...... This is called...... It's been a long time."

Hearing a title that hadn't appeared for a long time, there was no joy on Feili's face.

"I'm sorry, I have no reason to listen to you--even though I understand what you're worried about. You're scared, Yakumo Murasaki. You're afraid that what happened back then will happen again."

「……」

said something that the third party could not understand, but the two who were originally-for-tat had an unexpected tacit understanding on this--none of them mentioned what the incident was back then.

「…… One day, I'm going to kill you."

Neither high-minded nor cold, the words spoken in a plain tone make people feel a chill to the bone. There is no need to doubt that this is the true face that Yakumo Zi does not show on weekdays.

"Hahaha......

Hearing this frightening declaration, Fei Li clapped his hands and laughed with great joy - even under the horror of the monster sage's expressionless face and not saying a word, thanks to his extraordinary boldness.

He could still laugh in such a situation, of course, not because he felt heartfelt joy when he heard that someone was going to kill him...... If you listen closely, you can see that there is no element of joy in his laughter, but other indescribable complexities.

"Hahahahaha...... Okay, okay, I finally said it, this sentence must have been held back for more than ten years, and now it should be a lot more comfortable, right? Yakumo Purple."

The laughter gradually stopped, and Fei Li also changed to another expression, saying that it was sad that it was a little inaccurate, but the handsome facial features did form a somewhat astringent smile.

"Finally said it, I can't stand seeing you keep a fake smile at me for more than ten years. Why so hard? Seeing you work so hard, I really can't help it."

These words sound sarcastic, but judging from the fierce expression, but judging from the tone at this moment, it doesn't look like mockery Yakumo Purple at all, but it seems to be heartfelt words.

「…… Aren't you the same? If you have this opportunity, you will also shoot mercilessly."

Yakumo Zi was also completely confused by Feili's strange attitude, and obviously paused before speaking again.

"That's right. We are enemies, and we have been enemies since the Moon War more than a thousand years ago, when I killed tens of thousands of youkai with a single blow."

The two men met thousands of years ago, but unfortunately it was not a beautiful encounter.

It was an encounter on the battlefield of blood and fire. The two of them did not have any dissatisfaction with this...... Unlike the plot in the novel, there is no spark of love on the battlefield, and if there is anything the two of them have in common, it is that they just have a strong desire to kill each other.

That's when you meet a good opponent, and you have a strong desire that is unique.

It's just that............

"Even so, it's too abnormal now, and your killing intent towards me is no longer just an enemy on opposite sides, but because you have hatred for me--then, when did you start to have such a great hatred for me?"

When did it start?

If there was one answer, it would be that time.

But if you say that the moment when Yakumo's hatred for him reached its peak...... It was undoubtedly the moment she died.

A girl who died in her arms with a smile in her eyes...... This scene is so powerful that I can't forget it to this day.

Obviously, the past time was so happy, but in the end, it ushered in such an ending -- Feili felt that this must be a fool of God.

"You...... It's right to think that I was the culprit who killed her, the cause of everything."

Maybe it's really his fault, maybe it's still happening, even now, Feili often tortures himself like this in his heart.

If he hadn't met that girl, would she have ended up better?

I guess it will.

It's a pity......

"What's the point of talking about it now? At all costs...... You are my enemy."

Coldly interrupted Fei's words, and Yakumo Zi's words were categorical.

However, underneath her tough words, it may have been to escape something.

「…… So you're taking me for the culprit, right? I'm a sinner, just hate me as much as you want—and then you'll be able to escape all the guilt you have for her."

But Feili would never allow her to do so.

"Shut up!"

The voice, which is usually sometimes elegant, sometimes vicious, has only the most intense feelings at this moment...... That's anger.

The intensity of the reaction was beyond imagination, and anyone who saw Yakumo Murasaki now would not associate her with that youkai sage who was at ease.

It's just that she is angry at the powerful words, or is she angry at the truth that has been revealed...... I'm afraid only she knows this.

"That's right, just anger, hate...... This might give you some comfort...... If I weep and beg for mercy from you, you will never forgive me, because this is your revenge, right?"

"Hmph."

The youkai sage, who had recovered a little from the rage just now, didn't even bother to answer, and only responded with a cold snort.

"In that sense, you're also the object of my vengeance—but I'll forgive you."

「…… Are you in your right mind?"

Even the anger has decreased a little, and now Yakumo Purple is almost confused by Feili.

In Yakumo's opinion, Fei Li may be the culprit who killed the girl, so she is an avenger; But in Feili's opinion, what is the difference between Yakumo Zi in his eyes and Yakumo Zi in his eyes?

No.

Revenge on each other for the sake of the same person.

Yakumo Murasaki would undoubtedly do this, but Fei Li would not.

From a long time ago, he felt that revenge is not a wonderful thing, the dead cannot be redeemed, and the dead will not return, which can only bring comfort to the avenger's soul, but after the comfort, there is an endless sense of emptiness.

So is revenge pointless?

No.

It's not wonderful, but it's necessary to make sinners pay the price they deserve to atone for their sins...... This is the only practical meaning of revenge.

Now, Feili even has to give up this right.

It's not that he is great, and it's not because he fell in love with Yakumo Murasaki in blood, but that he promised a certain girl that he wouldn't kill Yakumo Murasaki.

"Even if you want to kill me and do it, after defeating you, I will give you another chance...... Once, twice, three times, let the horses come, and I will forgive you."

"Give me a chance? Forgive me? Do you think you're still the same Phoenix Valkyrie back then? Do you think I'll be able to make it through even a few dozen rounds under your command like I did in the Lunar War? Your time is long gone."

There was a metal wedge stuck in Feili's heart, and it was this thing that caused his magnetic field to drop dramatically - it was the thing he used to keep his friend alive, so he had no remorse.

However, it is true that the power has weakened.

"If that's what you do, go ahead and do it."

In the face of Yakumo Zi's words, Fei Li did not have any anger, this was his self-confidence, the self-confidence of being an absolute powerhouse.

"As immortals, we have a lifespan beyond the reach of mortals, so we have plenty of time to ...... I'm interested in what the future holds."

While saying this, Fei Li walked straight past Yakumo Zi and headed towards the foreign pavilion in the distance, and this time, Yakumo Zi didn't stop him again.

Until his figure disappeared, the monster sage didn't make any movement, she just stood there, looking at the sky with an expression that didn't show any emotion.

She was in a bad mood.

It was not a pleasant feeling to be uncovered again from a wound that had begun to heal. And the fierce eyes also made her feel ashamed.

If it was just contempt, contempt, and the like, she would only laugh it off, but it was pity that she could not accept it the most, even if it was only a very small amount.

"Hmph...... I think about it again, those bad memories."

When you close your eyes, you can remember the scene in your mind, whether it is tears or laughter, it is all real. It was something that was treasured in her heart.

Even the ruthless youkai sage has a sensual side.

It's just that......

「…… Am I really wrong?"

Between muttering to himself, the sage's figure disappeared into the rift in space.
