Chapter 30: The First Meeting

At the moment when Shidao's body jumped down, the door of the rooftop was suddenly blasted open by an inexplicable force, and May, who rushed out of it without stopping, reached out with lightning speed at the last moment!

"You're crazy!"

The frightened and angry voice reached Shidao's ears, and his pounding heart finally calmed down.

He was hung in the air by May's collar, but instead of answering May's question, he looked wordlessly down - in the dim shadow he threw against the wall, several arms reached out, clutching his body tightly.

In other words, even if May didn't arrive in time, those arms would have been able to hold him firmly.

Although there was still a little panic in his heart, and his emotions had not completely calmed down, the corners of Shidao's mouth were hooked.

After taking a few breaths, he raised his head, looked at May gratefully, and said, "Thank you, May...... Sorry for worrying you! ”

"......" May was silent for a moment, and then with a force, he directly dragged Shidao back from outside the wall: "Don't, don't be sentimental!" I'm not worried about you, I'm just ...... I think you'll be sad if you die, Toka and Shiito! ”

"Ahaha......" Shidao stood on the solid ground of the roof again, and after smiling bitterly twice, he looked at the crazy Mistress with a cloudy look on the side: "Thank you too...... Kurumi, you just made a move......"

"I can't believe it! What are you thinking? What are you thinking? What do you think of your life? Kurumi rebuked emotionally.

"No, you shouldn't be qualified to say such things......" Even at this time, Shido did not forget to complain, and then said with a smile as if he was victorious, "However, I have confirmed one thing - I really have the value of being a hostage......"

“……！”

"If I die, Kurumi will be very troubled, right...... So, stop the space tremor now! By the way, disarm this barrier, or I'll bite my tongue and kill myself! ”

"W-What?! This—this kind of frightening words......"

"Do you think it's a scare thing?" Shidao asked rhetorically.

Kurumi closed her mouth suddenly, and she remembered again that just now, Shido jumped from the stairs without hesitation, which made her expression gloomy.

"Woo ......" let out a whimper of dissatisfaction, and the mad three snapped his fingers indignantly, and suddenly, the trembling space calmed down, and the piercing spatial vibration alarm also stopped, and even the heaviness in the surrounding air disappeared.

"Hey, it doesn't matter. Anyway, my original purpose was only Shidao alone. So no problem at all! No problem at all! ”

The girl said aloud as if she had given up on herself, and stretched out her hand to Shidao.

"So—I'll ask you one more question."

"Also...... And ......? ”

Kurumi said with a puzzled expression. After saying "That's right," Shidao continued:

"Just once. Kurumi, please let me give you a chance to do it all over again! ”

"Huh......?"

Kurumi's eyes widened in surprise, but it didn't take long for him to frown again.

“…… Are you still talking about this? Please don't go too far. Your kindness will only add to the trouble. I love to kill and I love to be killed. So you don't need to say that much to me! ”

Kurumi screamed as if he was resisting Shidao, and his voice didn't sound like it had been before, giving people a bottomless terror - or rather, more like he was running away from something, deceiving himself.

Shidao sighed imperceptibly, as if worried about the girl who wanted to eat him not long ago, and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but a palm pressed on his shoulder, holding down all the remaining words of him, and then, a faint voice came from his side into his ears.

"Sorry to bother me a bit."

Stopping Shimichi, May walked out in his slightly surprised gaze.

"I know what you're trying to do...... However, there are some words that are not said to the ontology, then there is no meaning......"

"W-What?" Kurumi and Shido were both stunned, of course, Shido was confused, and Kurumi was surprised.

May turned her head, looked at Shido, and explained to him in the simplest way possible, "On the way to save you, I met Kurumi. ”

“……？”

"Still don't understand? In this world, there is a plural of Kurumi Tokizaki at the same time...... In other words, these Kurumi Tokizaki are not the real Kurumi Tokizaki, but the doppelganger of the elf named Kurumi Tokizaki! ”

May paused, giving the surprised Shido some time to react before continuing, "In this building, Toka and Origami are fighting, and the target of the battle is Kurumi Tokizaki, and there is a Kurumi in front of us...... Think about it again, the Kurumi who was killed by your sister Chonggong Shina before was just a clone, so we guessed wrong from the beginning, Kurumi didn't have the ability to resurrect, but the ability to clone, and every time he appeared in front of us again after death, it was already another Kurumi......"

She looked at Shi Dao lightly: "I know what you want to say to her, but if the other party is not the main body, then the effect will be minimal...... Am I right, Kurumi? ”

In the last sentence, she finally looked at the crazy three whose expression gradually changed from surprise to complexity.

Even so, Kurumi still didn't admit it, just covered his mouth lightly and let out a laugh: "Oops...... Sure enough, I guessed it.,Well,Anyway, I didn't plan to keep it hidden.,But,May-classmate,How do you tell I'm a doppelganger? Maybe I'm the main body......"

"Less!" May didn't hesitate to pull out her broken teeth and pointed at Kurumi: "Anyway, you're also an elf, but your strength is too weak compared to Toka or even Shishino!" Come out, Kurumi, I can feel your body, it's nearby! ”

Kurumi seemed to be stunned, and after a short period of coldness, a strange laugh suddenly sounded around everyone.

"Ahhh~ It's May...... I'm really getting more and more interested in you......"

And with this voice sounding, a figure appeared on the rooftop at an unknown time, wearing a dark red dress, and a double ponytail tied to his head like the hands of the same clock, it was Kurumi Tokizaki!

Her appearance is exactly the same as the previous madman, but May can feel that the sense of oppression coming from her is completely different from those clones!

Kurumi (the main body) lifted the skirt corners of the dress with both hands, like a lady, and bowed slightly to May and Shidao: "Ahhh......hh
