"Are you enough?"

I looked speechlessly at the way people saw that Xiyu was reluctant to leave Cuizi, this guy followed us from the old fairy of medicine and poison all the way to the entrance of the village, and he didn't leave until someone came to tell him to go back.

"Alas~ There are really a lot of affairs in the city, and I have to go back." People look pity and melancholy when they see it.

"Since you're busy with official business, hurry up, don't let your subjects wait." I don't laugh.

"The rain has a point, we have arrived safely in the village, Your Highness can rest assured." Tsuiko followed and persuaded him to leave.

I snickered in my heart when I heard it, the reason why people came over at the beginning was that Cuizi's injury was not healed, and he was afraid that our group would be in danger before escorting us, and now we are home to see what excuse he has.

"Cuizi, you don't need to see outside, just ask me to see someone."

"You are the lord of the city, and speaking of which, our village is also within your jurisdiction, how can you call His Highness by name."

The brain circuit that people see is also strange, and they actually say happily: "I will definitely protect you...... We're all there. ”

In the end, he was full of sweetness (?) Gone. My mind was full of question marks, would he be wrong about Cuizi's meaning, she was obviously shirking, how could he interpret it as Cuizi took the initiative to let him protect it?

"Cuizi, your attitude towards him seems to have changed a lot." It used to be wary and suspicious, but now it's like a friend's relationship.

"Really?" As if Tsuiko didn't realize it.

"yes, you were quite disgusted with him the other day."

Tsuiko thought for a while, figured it out, and explained to me, "The first time I saw him, I noticed that his body was abnormal, but I wasn't sure what his true face was, so of course you have to be more careful with this kind of person." ”

"And now?"

"Although it's a half-demon body, it's always doing good deeds, so it doesn't matter if you come into contact, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy."

It's a good thing to have more partners, but he has a bad purpose. Tsuiko saw that I was about to speak and stopped asking me, "Is he going to do bad things in the future?" ”

"Huh?"

"Like Ashblade, don't you know the fate of many people in the future?"

It turned out that Tsuiko thought that I had concerns about him because I knew the future of people, but by the way, I could just say that he was not a good person in the future, so Tsuiko wouldn't have anything to do with him. I looked up and was about to say this, but I couldn't say it when I saw Tsuiko's clear and trusting eyes.

"What's wrong?" Tsuiko looked at me and didn't speak for a long time.

"I didn't ...... I don't know about him. "Scratch the wall, I can't lie to Cuizi, but I won't give up." Don't you notice that he is especially attentive to you? "I hope Tsuiko can understand that nothing to do is to be courteous, either to commit adultery or to steal.

"I found out, and he adores me."

"Eh, you know ?!!" Tsuiko's expression was also too calm.

"Did you just find out about something so obvious?"

"...... "I choked on why every time I talk to someone I go in an uncontrollable direction."

"Let's go home."

Cuizi didn't care much about this matter and carried the mica into the village, the injury on her shoulder has not been completely healed in the past few days, so the clothes she wears are wide and light when she takes off her armor, I have to say that people are very intimate, and what is prepared for her is suitable for her, so it is only a matter of time before she conquers Cuizi.

"What the hell are you worried about?" After all this time together, I can feel it every time I think about something.

"I don't know, it's just that I'm not at ease." At first, I didn't think much about matching them, just like when I was in love, I felt that it was good to have someone to accompany her, but now I think about how much possibility there is for their future.

As soon as Tsuiko returned, they rushed over to ask what kind of weapons she would bring.

"I'm sorry, but this time the weapon didn't go well."

Asu shook his head, "It's okay, Mizuko-sama has worked hard all the way, you can rest first." ”

He was obviously looking forward to it, but he didn't show it on his face at all, and he didn't burden Cuizi.

"Asu is a reliable child." Tsuiko commented on him for the first time. "When he grows up, he will lead the team well."

Don't talk about growing up, just talk about what happened just now, he said don't disturb Tsuiko's rest, and the others left obediently.

"Rain ......," Tsuiko called me, but just looked at me wordlessly, as if she hadn't figured out how to say the last sentence, "Forget it." Then he went into the house.

“？” What was she trying to tell me?

Because I've always remembered this incident, I wanted to find an opportunity to ask her if she had anything to say, but she was too busy, and there were some things waiting for her to deal with these days, but fortunately, there was no need to use force.

When night fell, Tsuiko returned, and I brought her a prepared meal.

"Didn't the old immortal of medicine poison tell you to meditate and cultivate and not be tired? Some things can be done tomorrow. "The main thing is that every time I want to speak, I am interrupted.

"It's not a big deal, don't worry."

Since it's not a big deal, why do you have to go all the way? A group of adults are like giant babies...... It occurred to me that I was half a pound and eight taels myself, and I was autistic in an instant.

"You've changed a lot in the rain."

“？” I looked up from my autism, "Is there one?" ”

"You used to tell me everything, but now you're always alone."

“…… Because it's not a big deal. "I don't want to bother you.

"I thought you were deliberately distancing yourself from me."

"Of course not! I've never had such a thought. "I panicked, I didn't expect to give her such an illusion.

"Actually, I probably understand the reason for your change, it's going to happen sooner or later." Cuizi put down the bowl with a sad apology in her eyes, "Originally, this change could have been earlier and more beneficial to your life here, but it was my selfishness that delayed it until now." ”

"It's none ...... your business"

Tsuiko interrupted me with a shake of her head, "You listen to me. I tried to hold back what I wanted to retort and listened to her.

"The original intention of establishing the Demon Slayer was to let everyone have the ability to protect themselves and reduce my burden, although the process was long and difficult, but now it has begun to bear fruit, and they will soon be able to go out to fight if they find the right weapon."

"Asu is doing better than I expected, not only can I manage, but I can also take the children to deal with the affairs of the village, I seem to be gradually idle except for dealing with youkai, and the villagers don't look for me very much. Originally, this was a normal phenomenon, but I was used to the previous life pattern and suddenly couldn't accept it, like slowly not being needed by everyone, I was very afraid. ”

"Every time I have such thoughts, you appear in front of me, you are coquettish to me, you smile at me, you rely on me with all your heart, and make me feel that even if the village no longer needs me, you will definitely be there for me. So, I don't want you to grow, I'm afraid that one day you will leave without hesitation. ”

I'm really staying, shouldn't it be that I don't fight hard and don't work hard?

"I'm sorry you trust me, but I have such a dirty mind."

Tsuiko looked at me openly, and I was sure she was genuinely sorry. I don't have much emotion, at most it's oh I see. This kind of thing is not something she can control alone, it mainly depends on me, and she can't stop me if I am motivated, so there is nothing to be angry about.

"It's not too late." Qiong Yao style I forgive you I really can t say it I scratched my hair uncomfortably I don t know if cuizi can understand or not.

"Rain, you're so kind."

It seems that she understands, but it's not human nature to be kind, there is no contradiction in trust.

I had a good night's sleep that night, and at this time I didn't understand why just such an act made Tsuiko feel that I was kind and good, and I didn't understand until I took on the same burden later, trust, how difficult it is for a world of deceit.
