Chapter Forty-Eight: Takako Itsukushima's Turn?
There was a silence in the forest, and the morning sun was shining through the overlapping branches, leaking specks of tiny shadows, adding to the elusive silence of the forest, adding to the seclusion of the depths of the forest.
Because of this, the three people facing each other felt that the atmosphere was becoming more and more solemn, and they even felt each other's breathing and heartbeats and other slight sounds, as if they could be easily heard.
"Huh...... Hehe......"
Hearing Mu Xiu's familiar greeting, Mizuho smiled awkwardly but politely, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, and then she adjusted her position imperceptibly, blocking Takako Itsushima next to her. "Classmate Mu Xiu, Gui'an...... Who are these people? β
However, although she said so, the two who were still wearing the uniforms of the students of the Saint Ying Church Women's College were obviously vigilant.
Takako Itsushima, who was behind Mizuho Mizuho Mizuki, pursed her lips even tighter, without making a rash sound, and her face looked a little ugly.
It seems that the mind of this honor student has not been able to successfully switch from "Shengying mode" to "White Emperor mode" completely, nor has he been able to adapt to the style of this game immediately, so this way of winning not by relying on an open and honest competition, but by "solving" other opponents along the way to win is difficult for her to accept.
The most important thing is that she is such an absolute weakling under the law of the jungle, which is almost the law of the jungle.
After all, just relying on academic performance and grade ranking, there is no way to transform it into combat power against those who are obviously also human, but they are all like characters in comics, so strong that they don't look like normal humans at all.
At least in Takako Itsukushima's previous conception, she felt that the world was based on normal physical laws.
But the opponents they have seen along the way, as well as the resistance they have suffered, are proof that there are too many foul play in this school.
Or just like the only group of rampaging teachers before, the combat effectiveness is amazing and the HP bar seems to be infinite, and you can still get up unharmed if you fall off the cliff.
Or, like the two teams in front of them, the length of the HP bar or anything else can't be seen, because no one can test how many health bars they have, the only thing that can be determined is that these two people belong to the kind of candidates who can get the ranking of "the strongest creature on the ground" with their bare hands.
One is the vice president of the student union who saw it with his own eyes more than half a month ago, and was able to knock over dozens of nearly hundreds of people in less than a minute, and he couldn't even see the movement.
One is the young butler who has just seen with his own eyes, using a rose to cut through the air, shoot a bullet at the same speed, and hit a place as powerful as a grenade explosion?
It can be said that if it weren't for Mizuho Mizuho Miyakoji, a "sister-sama" who also has a number of all-round templates, as a partner, Takako Itsukushima felt that she might have been eliminated at the beginning of the game.
Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help but bite her lower lip tightly, and her eyes revealed an emotion of annoyance and disacceptance.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Oh, let me introduce you - this one behind me is Lilicia-san, my partner in this competition, the current president of the school newspaper, is a ...... Well, she's a kind girl. β
Mu Xiu was subconsciously wary of his own behavior for Gong Xiaolu Ruisui, but he didn't have any special emotions, to be honest, it was not normal to be wary of himself at this time, so he just smiled disapprerovingly, and after hearing the other party's question, he simply introduced the other people present to the other party neatly.
ββ¦β¦ Hum. Fujido Lilicia snorted slightly, she turned around with her long double ponytail, and seemed to be more satisfied with this, after all, Mu Xiu didn't talk nonsense at this time, and she didn't continue to complain about her name in front of others with the inelegant stalk from before.
It's just that the only thing that still makes her feel uncomfortable is the obvious pause in the other party's words.
Hearing a soft grunt behind him, Mu Xiu paused for a moment, smiled disapprerovingly again, and then he looked at the young butler who was "standing" on the tree at a ninety-degree vertical angle, and the boy hanging from his coat.
"As for this one, it should be Young Master Dahe in Okoi, and the one he pulled should be the housekeeper of the Dahe family."
ββ¦β¦ Big River? β
Gong Xiaolu Ruisui was slightly stunned, but she didn't really know, but she didn't expect the other party to really respond to her question, and introduced herself to a few other people on the spot. This kind of rhetorical question is actually her subconsciously repeating other people's answer keywords when she doesn't know how to answer.
"Hmph, can you actually remember me and recognize me directly, worthy of the rumored vice president......
At this time, the young butler who was "standing" vertically on the trunk of the tree closed his eyes lightly, gently sniffed the roses in his hand, showed a rather sunny and frank smile, and opened his eyes to look at his "target".
But I have to admit that it is obviously such a deliberate pretending behavior, but it is so natural that it is displayed by the young housekeeper in front of him, as if it should be like this by nature, without any stiffness, obscurity, and uncomfortable feeling, this chic and neat temperament-
Mu Xiu was inexplicably a little envious, no matter what, he immediately threw away this thought, and put his attention on something even stranger.
"This, I think I still remember all the students in the whole school, whether it is the elementary school, the junior high school or the high school, and the more special ones are naturally even more memorable." The boy replied casually, and the next second he seemed to change his face, revealing an expression of amazement.
"So if I'm not mistaken, you should be a classmate of the ice room of Tsuneki, worthy of being recognized as a first-class housekeeper at the age of seventeen! It's a clever attack...... But can you tell me where you got your roses? It's best to have cherry blossoms, but I don't think there's anything on the market at this time. β
Mu Xiu's gaze directly locked on the flower basket that the boy was carrying on his arm, which was already about to fall off, all of which were roses and a large number of cherry blossom petals that had been arranged in advance.
These are all necessary props for the young butler in front of him to brush up on fashionable values.
- In the academy, whenever the Tsuaki Ice Room appears, the young master Taiga will also sprinkle cherry blossoms in the back to create an atmosphere. It's just that it's just because Young Master Dahe always does this, and the character of the Tsukiki Ice Room is too strong, so it is always unclear who is the housekeeper and who is the master.
"I have a really good memory, Vice Chief, I'm already looking forward to fighting you next, but I think your focus seems to be wrong......" The sunny smile of the Tsuki Ice Room couldn't help but stiffen for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Aha, don't say that, don't say that, in fact, ......" Mu Xiu stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head like a debtor butler, revealing a proud smile as if he had been praised, "I don't have such a good ...... Hahaha......"
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
There was an awkward silence and silence.
"Hey, pay attention to me, time is running out, can you get to the point quickly."
Fujitang Lilicia behind Mu Xiu couldn't look at it at first, and shouted, "Please, we have been caught up by both teams, and the first-hand advantage has been equaled, can you put it later!" β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
There was another awkward silence and silence.
"It's rude to say that "business blows to each other", this is clearly me and my classmates in the ice room, and I can't help it!" Mu Xiu coughed lightly and laughed dryly. Then he took a deep breath, his expression became serious, and he looked at the young butler not far away in front of him very seriously.
"Come on, Bingguo-san, although your combat power is "completely" nothing in my opinion, let you recognize ......"
"Wait, wait, waitββ!"
Lilicia Fujido wanted to smash the wireless microphone in her hand on her partner's head, and her voice was quite surprised.
"What about the "sympathy for each other" that I just said, let the wind blow away in the blink of an eye, don't say something like that for less than three seconds, and directly belittle the object of your sympathy just now!"
And it's still deliberately emphasizing a certain keyword, isn't it even more insulting?
"Oh, Delmar...... Ahem, Fujido-san, you don't understand. β
At this time, Mu Xiu's face did not have the slightest hint of jokes, as if he was just stating the facts, as calm and indifferent, "If I get serious, it is impossible for human beings to fight against me...... What's more, it's someone like Himuro-san who has obvious weaknesses. β
"Don't expelle yourself from the human realm by talking to yourselfβhey, wait, what are your weaknesses in what you just said?" The blonde girl with two ponytails couldn't bear to hold her forehead, and it took two seconds to react.
"Hmph, I'll show you and you'll know."
"Well, wait, can we have a good talk, violence can't solve the problem, and this game can't be done in a legitimate and normal way-" Seeing that this situation seemed to be about to start, Mizuho Mizuho Mizuho couldn't help but say something to stop it, she smiled bitterly and felt that this kind of development was really a headache.
However, before her words could be finished, the blonde girl behind her, who had been hanging her head and not speaking with a gloomy face, finally broke out.
"Enough! You all stop me!! β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
On the surface, he was interested in seeing what the other party was going to do, but he had secretly adjusted his vigilance and physical condition to the best critical point where he could explode at any time.
Mu Xiu, on the other hand, had just taken a small half step forward, with his arm slightly raised, as if he was about to demonstrate a tutorial case of "easily solving the Wood Ice Room" to his partner behind him.
It's just that the two of them didn't have time to take the next step before they were stopped by the sudden cheering, so they both subconsciously turned their heads.
