"But you're crying."

Cen Xuexun said.

"Eh, I cried......"

The black pupil touched his cheek, and some liquid moistened his fingers.

“…… Ximen Yu!?"

The black pupil muttered uncertainly, turned around, and ran upstairs.

………………

The body was becoming illusory, something was changing, Ximenyu raised her head slightly, looked at Cang, and found that she was looking at herself with a solemn face.

"What's wrong with you, why is the breath so illusory, what's going on?"

Ximenyu shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but it seems that I've found... The way it looks. ”

"What found?"

"My duty, right?" Ximen Yu muttered with some uncertainty.

A ray of light lit up from Ximenyu's mind, enveloping her whole body, and Ximenyu's body gradually disappeared from Cang's sight.

As if it did not exist, existence seemed to disappear into this world.

Cang frowned, and his figure rushed to Ximenyu's body in vain, grabbing Ximenyu, but he didn't catch anything.

“…………”

Cang looked at this scene in a trance.

………………

The infinite starry sky, the illusory space, everything seems to be false, but it is so real.

"What is this place?" Ximen Yu muttered.

She looked behind her and saw a large round planet with a huge golden figure that covered the sky.

No, the whole body was bigger than the sphere she saw, not a level, as if she wanted to swallow the sphere.

The monster opened its mouth at the orb, its huge sharp teeth as if it were about to pierce the heavens and the earth.

At this moment, Ximenyu's entire heart was lifted.

"No, no, this is the only thing that definitely doesn't work."

An unprecedented sense of urgency surged in Ximenyu's heart.

A golden light shone through the heavens and the earth, and a knight's sword emerged from the void and slashed at the monster.

The aftermath of terror spread in front of Ximenyu's body, and it was a force that was enough to tear everything apart.

It was impossible for her to stop it, and a figure appeared in front of Ximenyu, blocking the aftermath for her.

Ximen Yu looked at the figure in front of him, his pupils shrank slightly, and he muttered, "Lan Xun...... Brother, why are you here? ”

"Jade ...... You've found it. ”

Lan Xun looked at her and said.

There was a shallow smile at the corner of his mouth.

Found it?

Ximen Yu was slightly stunned, and then realized that he was talking about what I was looking for.

"Did I find it?"

Ximenyu muttered with some uncertainty, without a real feeling.

Lan Xun smiled silently and held out a finger on her forehead.

Ximen Yu was slightly stunned, her consciousness fell, as if traveling through the world, she reached the depths of her memory, the place where memories were stored for a long time.

It was a memory she had forgotten, and Ximenyu looked behind her.

A voice came into his ears.

"I want to protect the people I value the most, I want to save those poor people, I want to find my truest self, that's my dream!"

When I was a child, I said this to my brother.

“…… That's right, I see...... What I haven't found, I've already gotten. ”

Ximen Yu whispered softly, it was a very fragile fire, more fragile than anything in the world.

Burning in his own heart, like a fire in the cold wind, so small, and so endless, which is admirable.

What I want is not something like a duty.

I picked up the flame and whispered:

"All I want is to be with the person I cherish the most, forever."

Everything was clear at this moment, and Ximen Yu sighed slightly.

"It's really...... It's a big circle. ”

What she wanted was never her duty, but someone she could protect, even if it was humble.

The flame ignited the golden page, and it bloomed with unprecedented light, and everything was dyed golden in the golden light.

Ximenyu evoked a smile, so pure, so beautiful.

The golden light expanded rapidly, enveloping everything in it.

Everything dissolves into nothingness, and everything comes to an end in the gaze of that figure.

The dragon disappeared, and Ximen Yu's pupils were permanently dyed gold, frozen in this scene.

……………………

Nothing was affected, and the pedestrians continued to walk the same path that had been walked countless times.

Those who are waiting for the return of their beloved ones are still waiting.

The black pupil stood in front of the inn, waiting for someone, and the sky was gradually approaching dusk, but the person waiting did not appear.

What a painful thing it is, the person who is missing in my heart is not there, I want to see, I want to hear.

Black Hitomi watched as he walked through the bustling crowd, the world gradually turned gray, and everything lost its color.

The black pupil lowered his head, as if wrapped in darkness, and the chill invaded, as if falling into an ice cellar.

"Black Pupil."

A voice came from the side, and the black pupil raised his head, it was so incredible, and the original gray world became colorful again.

A smile naturally appeared on his face, and he said to the visitor:

"What are you doing?"

The visitor replied:

"Save the world a little."

"I'm not allowed to come back so late in the future." The black pupil looked at the visitor and admonished.

"It's only dusk."

"I don't care."

"Okay, I promise you, go back, go back to Sky City."

Hitomi nodded in satisfaction and walked forward with the man.

Everything opens at this time.
