Qin Ji asked Gu Shuo curiously, "How can you help me, can you really help me fulfill my wish?"

"Well, I assure you. Gu Shuo no longer made Kotohime feel serious and stressed like before, "Although you still have to do it yourself in the end, I promise you - as long as you stick to the last moment, you can succeed...... Bell. ”

As soon as Gu Shuo snapped his fingers, the flower cat jumped to Gu Shuo's side with light steps, and Gu Shuo said to the two: "Take this child, she is my pet, she will help you when you are in danger." ”

Is this still a female cat?

Jean-hime wanted to ask something, but when she was about to speak, she felt her head feel dizzy, and by the time she came back to her senses, the two of them had already returned to their previous room.

When she looked at the ground, the cute cat was sitting on the ground looking at her, and she couldn't help but want to reach out and pet the cat. But I didn't expect the cat to dodge Kotohime's hand, and the cat that hid to the side barked at Kotohime, as if to say, "You are not allowed to touch me".

As for the arrogant cat, Kotohime had no choice but to ask, "Can you understand what I say?"

The cat didn't respond, just stared blankly at Kotohime. Elona said, "It's just a cat, right?

"You should understand, right? The spirit beasts of our world are much smarter than humans. Qin Ji thinks that since it is Gu Shuo's pet, it must not be an ordinary cat, and if it is an ordinary cat, Gu Shuo will not let herself take her. Speaking of which, wasn't there Zate's brother Juanle before? That guy was obviously a dog, but he could still speak human words, and he was very powerful.

However, to Kotohime's disappointment, the kitten named Suzu didn't seem to be able to speak, and she sat on the ground washing her face with her own saliva, ignoring Kotohime and Ilona.

Ilona asked uneasily, "Kotohime, are you sure this thing can protect us in times of crisis?" I always feel that we have been fooled by your ancestors......

"I feel that way too...... Why don't you ask your dad?"

"How do I ask? I just happened to be able to get in touch, my dad...... Yes...... got in touch. ”

On the other side, Shui Wuyue Shuyue asked, "What's the matter, didn't you just send you over to see Gu Shuo?"

Ilona said, "Dad, Gu Shuo rejected Kotohime, and he didn't let Kotohime be his student. ”

"Really, what's the matter? Since Gu Shuo himself didn't agree, I can't help you with your request...... Don't expect me to take Kotohime as a student, I don't have that habit. ”

Elona rolled her eyes, why is this dad so self-righteous? Who said he was going to be his student?" Although Gu Shuo didn't agree to accept Qin Ji as a student, he gave us a cat, saying that he could protect us in times of danger. ”

"Cat?" Shui Wuyue Shuyue asked curiously, "Is it a kitten with a black and white pattern called 'Suzu'?"

Elona didn't expect her dad to know about the cat, and asked, "yes, is this cat very powerful, daddy?"

"How so...... Don't expect that cat to help you, that cat is Gu Shuo's pet, and it is useless to leave Gu Shuo since he was a child. ”

Hearing Shui Wuyue Shuyue say this, Ilona and Kotohime instantly despaired, and in the end, they were still pitted by that Gu Shuo...... It seems that he can't count on the power of others, and if he wants to free this world from Fiya, he still needs to rely on Zete's power.

So Ilona said, "Let's go and get Zet out, nothing else feels reliable." ”

"I feel the same way. Qin Ji felt that she was really naïve to have hope for Gu Shuo just now, and sure enough, strength and that kind of thing were not something that could be obtained casually.

Ilona patted the staff, which naturally reacted and pointed Zet in the direction.

But it also made Elona wonder why the staff had been guiding Kotohime's location before, and could it have chosen who to look for based on the user's inner thoughts?

"Over there. Jean said to Ilona, "Then just go in that direction and rescue Zete......"

"Then leave the rest to Zet. "That's what they can do, neither she nor Jean is in a position to sanction Fiya's actions, and they only hope that Zete will punish Fiya accordingly and make her pay for her actions.

Qin Ji is still unwilling, she has never been able to let go. If, according to Gu Shuo, his students were all selfish people, why would Gu Shuo be willing to be their teacher, and why would he not accept himself as a student?

Why is it that those who want to save others are incapable, and those who are capable always sit idly by and ignore the misery of the weak? resentment...... Kotohime's resentment deepened, she knew that resentment was bad, she knew that she was not qualified to resent anyone, but she couldn't, the resentment in her heart just kept coming up. Resentment against others is bad behavior, then ...... It's okay to resent yourself, right?

......

Fearing that they would be discovered by those monsters if they flew into the sky, Elona and Kotohime decided to walk over the ground, and with the cover of countless buildings, it must be more difficult for those monsters to find them, right?

"I felt a human presence. Ilona, who was hurrying, suddenly stopped and said, "The detector has a sense, and it is within five hundred meters in front." ”

How long has it been since Kotohime had seen a human being? Ten days, or twenty days, or a month? I don't know, since those monsters began to appear in large numbers, the number of humans in this world began to drop sharply, and in just a few days, there was no trace of humans in the city.

Kotohime said, "Let's go over and have a look...... After all, it is one of the few humans in this city, and if they see that there are still their companions, the other party may also have some hope for survival. ”

As she was about to look for the human, Kotohime looked at Ilona's clothes and said, "You're too cool, aren't you? ”

Ilona also felt that her standard summer dress seemed to be exaggerated a little, although she didn't have any feelings about this kind of weather, but it would feel strange to dress like this in this icy and snowy place.

But even if Ilona wants to change her clothes, she can't find a place to change them, and the clothing stores that sell clothes are now stocked with some summer clothes, because the monster appeared in August, and after that, there was no one to manage these stores, and they still remained the same as they were half a year ago.

"Look in the lodging rooms. Kotohime said, "Since it's a people's house, I think it will have the winter clothes that the owner used to wear...... I'm sorry for those who have died, but there's no way around it. ”

As soon as Kotohime said this, Ilona noticed that the clothes on Kotohime were all thick winter clothes, after all, the spiritual power decayed and the fact that there was no staff in which Kotohime had no way to use spiritual magic to maintain her body temperature before, so naturally she had to wear thick clothes.

So these clothes must have been obtained from a family's home, right?

Kotohime looked at Ilona, and she saw what Ilona was thinking. With a wry smile, Kotohime said, "Curious......? It's not something you wear without permission, it's something you put on with the owner's permission......"

With the permission of the owner, has Kotohime ever communicated with anyone before? In this world.

Taking Ilona to find clothes that could be worn for Ilona, Kotohime said as she walked, "When I met her...... I don't remember exactly, I've lost my sense of time, after all, I repeat the same thing every day, and sometimes I get hurt and sleep for many days, and I don't notice how much time has passed when I wake up. But I vaguely remember meeting her just after winter, and I was walking through the windy streets wearing clothes I had searched from someone I didn't know who was going to do so...... Even though I knew I was going to be attacked by monsters, I still wandered the streets - because I wouldn't have been able to find Zet without that...... At that time, I thought that as long as I found Zete, I would have a way to solve all the problems in front of me, so my daily task was to find Zete. ”

When Zete's name was mentioned, Ilona looked at Kotohime's gritted teeth and didn't know what to say, so she had to listen to Kotohime continue: "While walking on the road, I suddenly heard a cry for help, it was the first time I heard a human voice again, and I was excited to chase towards the source of the sound and saw a monster attacking a human teenager. ”

Elona smiled, "You're going to save her, aren't you?" Elona knows, Kotohime will save her, even if she knows that she doesn't have any chance of winning, Kotohime will save her, because Kotohime is such a person......

"No......" Kotohime said unexpectedly, choking and grabbing the corner of Elona's coat and saying, "I don't have the courage to rush out...... It's obviously a living life...... At that time, if I rushed out, with the spiritual power that I usually stored, and the monster didn't notice me...... Maybe I might be able to save that man...... But I couldn't do it...... I'm afraid that if I fail, either the boy or I will be eaten by the monster...... I...... Elona...... I ......"

Kotohime looked up at Ilona, and her swollen red eyes overflowed with the blood in Kotohime's heart, which was the "blood" that flowed out after being injured on the road of "life", and existed to heal human wounds.

"I really regret it...... I regret my uselessness at that time, and I regret my cowardice at that time...... Even if I survive...... Isn't it possible to do nothing now? In that case, it would be better to do everything in your power to save that person...... Maybe I can save him......" Kotohime's choking couldn't stop, as if she was hiccuping and didn't know how to stop, but hiccups are a lot cuter and more interesting than this thing.

Elona tried to wipe the tears from her face for Kotohime, but Kotohime turned her head and continued, "I just watched that person being eaten, watching a life being ruthlessly taken away in front of me, but I couldn't do anything...... But after the monster had eaten the man and left, I found out that there was another person in a room not far from it...... At that time, the man was hiding like me, and he didn't dare to act, and watched the boy being eaten......"

This is also normal, even Kotohime can't muster up the courage when facing that kind of monster, how can an ordinary person have the guts to rush out......

Jean-hime asked Ilona, "Elona, do you know who that person is?"

Ilona shook her head, how could she possibly know about such a thing?

Kotohime smiled, and smiled very sadly: "The one who hid, she is the sister of the young man who was eaten......"

"......" sister...... Does that mean she watched her brother being eaten by monsters and was unmoved? Or was she too scared to even go to her brother?

"Her brother deliberately ran out to attract the monster's attention in order to keep his sister from being eaten...... "He succeeded, and the monster ate him and left...... So she wasn't seen by the monsters...... Maybe the monster was satisfied, so he decided to eat this man next time he had the chance. ”

Ilona didn't know what she should say anymore, she didn't expect that Kotohime would experience such a thing during this time.

"Then I went to her side and told her that I had just seen the boy being eaten, and she laughed...... You know what? She laughed...... "Kotohime didn't want to go any further, she squatted on the side of the road and covered her face and cried bitterly, "I would rather she cried out loud at that time, I would rather she complained at the time and I said why I didn't save her brother! But she just laughed! Her smile was so beautiful, but it was so weak...... 'This is also something that can't be helped, we are just ordinary people who are incapable after all...... 'She said this to me at the time!Why don't I have enough strength?' If I had the strength, I could have saved the boy! She wouldn't have to suffer the pain of watching her brother being eaten!But why?!Why did I come into this world as an eighteen-year-old me who was spiritually exhausted?!Why was my staff destroyed by that strange bird when I came?!Why?Why is the world always full of so many coincidences?Why?Ilona!You tell me why?!"

Kotohime hysterically grabbed Ilona by the collar and shook it desperately, but Ilona couldn't give an answer, Ilona couldn't understand Kotohime's sadness, the powerlessness of a girl who watched her brother being eaten by monsters, and the determination to live with a smile and a strong face after that.

Elona didn't know that, but she knew that the sadness of Kotohime at this moment was real, and it was the weakest cry of Kotohime from the depths of her heart......

What is it? What does it feel like...... Ilona clutched her chest, feeling that this part was inexplicably a little sad, what kind of emotion is this?

Ilona had no choice but to say, "Kotohime...... Isn't this already known? The catastrophe of this world, the destruction of mankind...... We knew this back in 2174, these things...... Fate......"

Kotohime raised her head suddenly, she stared at Elona's face, her hideous expression was as terrifying as a cannibalistic demon: "Fate? Is the so-called fate such a noble thing that plays with other people's lives at will and is built on the pain of countless lives?"

"But...... There's nothing we can do about it...... We don't have the power to change these ......"

"We are incapable!" Chin Ji cried out, her throat almost torn apart, and she shouted with all her strength, "But there are people who have the ability! Capable people are still there because of the ridiculous intentions in their hearts! Sitting in a comfortable room and talking to his little fan sister about me! And the cause of all this disaster is the two of them! It is because of the two of them that the innocent human beings of the whole earth are involved! They ...... None of you have ever experienced the feeling of seeing innocent lives being mercilessly crushed, you are just standing at the top of the pyramid and watching the lives below kill each other...... Gods!"

"Slap", a crisp slap, Ilona held the slightly painful right hand and was stunned and didn't know why she played Qinji, obviously Qinji was her favorite person, why did she hit her? But it hurts...... It was only a slight pain just now, but why does this hand hurt so much now?

"Of course I don't understand!" Ilona didn't know why she was yelling at Kotohime, and she didn't know why she couldn't control herself, "Of course I don't feel that feeling! All I know is the determination of countless robots to fly out of the atmosphere to protect the world and use their bodies to resist a giant comet that changes its course! I only know that even robots like me have feelings! I am not a god with a heart of stone! Don't talk to yourself and think that you are the only one who knows that feeling! Don't be presumptuous and take responsibility that shouldn't belong to you...... It's all on your shoulders......"

In the wind and snow, the two girls hugged each other and squatted on the side of the street crying. The cat, named Suzu, watched the two of them quietly, turned around and jumped up the tall building with agility.
