"Little boy!" A little Lori excitedly hugged a little flower cat that seemed to have just woken up. Although I don't know why this little cat appeared in the cardboard box outside her house, the little Lori will definitely not admit that she is wrong, this is the little girl she once lost.

What exactly is going on, this is something that adults should consider, and as a carefree little Lori, it is enough to just enjoy the excitement and excitement of a reunion now.

Looking at the touching scene in front of him, a personal commission was displayed in Xuefeng's vision. As someone animates the circular stamp with the word "Done" written on it, the commission disappears from Yukikaze's vision.

Immediately after that, on the system page owned by Yukikaze, the number representing the points jumped upwards, jumping from 1004 to 1014 and then stopped moving. At the same time, in front of Yukikaze, a stack of yen and a pile of coins appeared on the desk without warning. And these are the prices that little Lori needs to pay, all the New Year's money she gets.

Complete the commission and get rewards; Wishes come true, and the price is paid. This is the daily life of the house of everything.

Of course, it is just a personal commission to find a kitten, which is naturally not difficult, the reward is not much, and the cost is not large. But these are just sweeteners, because when this commission is confirmed, another is also confirmed.

After the same animation effect, Yukikaze quickly found the newly added feature on the Stronghold page.

[Location: Unnamed]

[Status: Temporary]

(Anyway, it's useless, and there is a suspicion of dragging the number of words, and the area, room, facilities, etc. will no longer be written, and it will be explained when you use it in the future)

[Do you want to enable the crypt mystification function?] 】

Sure, of course!

In an instant, the number 1014 changed to 14.

Fortunately, I had redeemed what I needed beforehand.

Looking at the extremely mocking number in front of him, Xue Feng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then remembered what he needed to do today: It seems that he will be very busy in the future, no, he will have to be busy from today onwards......

Just when Xue Feng pressed the OK and 1000 points were deducted, a layer of mist slowly rose outside the stronghold, that is, the house that Xue Feng and the three people bought, completely shrouding the house in the fog.

Then, as the breeze blew, the fog seemed to drift away with everything that had shrouded the houses in between. The fog dissipated, and everything was completely gone, or rather, this space was completely gone.

Because now, the two houses next to the house that used to be shrouded in fog have become close neighbors, and it seems that there has never been a house in between.

Looking at the scene outside the window, Naoba felt a little strange, those two houses didn't seem to be in the current position, there should be a ...... between them What's there?

"Naoba! Hurry up and have breakfast! Baihui is already eating! ”

There was a shout from his mother downstairs, and Naoba put his insignificant doubts behind him and began to put on his clothes: "Got it! I'll be fine soon! ”

No one remembers that there was such a house and its occupants. Whether it is the memories of others, the archives of the house, or the space where they are located, they have completely disappeared from the plane.

-- Everything in Hades is a mystery --

The black-haired lady once again held up the medical records she had received from her latest health check-up at the hospital that she had placed in a drawer, as if to confirm whether it was her delusion. But soon he smiled bitterly and put down the medical record in his hand: "It seems that the plan will not work if it is not implemented......

"Let's go take a shower first." With that, the black-haired lady walked towards the bathroom next to her bedroom.

After ten minutes of bathing time, when she returned to the bedroom again, the black-haired royal sister, who was wiping her hair with a towel, was surprised that the towel in her hand fell to the wooden floor.

Because an uninvited guest was sitting on the bed in his bedroom, and the other person was holding his medical record in his hand.

However, although the black-haired royal sister was surprised, there was no panic, because the other party was just a black-haired Lori wearing a black gothic skirt and a double ponytail: "Who are you?" What do you want? Why can you enter my house? ”

It's just that when the other party raised his head and looked directly at him, the black-haired royal sister's heart was violently shaken and frightened.

Those are not human eyes, or rather, they are not the eyes that ordinary people should have.

It was a pair of blood-red eyes that were redder than blood, purer than gems.

"Yo, are you surprised to see me? Who am I? You'll find out later. So without further ado, I'm here to grant your wishes, as long as you're willing to pay the corresponding price. ”

Xue Feng said to the black-haired royal sister in front of him.

An hour later, the large cocoon of light in the bedroom shattered into countless colorful points of light, revealing the figure wrapped in it to the outside world.

Looking at the black-haired Lori who was lying on the bed, feeling the new special connection in his heart, Xuefeng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Although it was only done twice, how can there be a feeling of a standardized process." ”

After a few minutes, the black-haired Lori in front of her opened her confused eyes, and Xue Feng stretched out her right hand to her: "Welcome to join us, new family." ”

The black-haired Lori, who had the insignia of the Overwatch Dragon on her right shoulder, obediently held Yukikaze's hand and used her strength to sit up. After shaking his head and trying to clear himself up, the special connection in his heart told himself unmistakably at this moment what was going on.

Opening his small mouth, Lori's unique crisp and sweet voice sounded: "It's a wonderful feeling." However, it seems to be more connected than family. ”

"Since I was a girl before, there shouldn't be anything awkward about my current body." Xue Feng opened the purchase list of women's clothing, and then casually transferred it to the black-haired Lori, "The name will continue to be the same as before, so I'll call you Ellie in the future." ”

"No, my previous name was Eri, not Ellie." Ellie chose a kimono with a cherry blossom pattern.

"Anyway, the pronunciation is about the same, so it's decided!" Although she refuted it before, Ellie did not seriously refuse again, and seemed to acquiesce to what Yukifeng called her. Perhaps having a new name is a good note for this new life.

If Chrissy had been there, she would have known that it was just another resurgence of Yukikaze's bad taste.

"Pack up a bit, and we'll leave." Looking at the slim kimono Lori in front of her, Xuefeng nodded with satisfaction. At this moment, Xue Feng seemed to sense something and frowned.

"What's wrong?" Ellie looked strangely at the snow wind in front of her and asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, I'd better clean up here later." After Xue Feng's frowning brows relaxed, he smiled at Ellie, and pulled the other party to walk outside, "It's better to hear than to see, this time is just for you to understand what we are going to do in the future." ”

"Just show me how you do after you finish training, Lillian."

――――New members join, applaud and scatter flowers! ――――

Damn, if only I had the strength of my brother!

Looking at the shirtless man in front of him who was holding a bloodstained kitchen knife and wearing a stone mask, and the few feet of the mask seemed to be inserted into his head, Naoba's heart was full of powerlessness. That sense of oppression clearly told himself that the other party would kill him, and he would definitely kill him, and he had absolutely no strength to fight against him.

I used to have no belief in the existence of murderous energy in the world, but now it seems that I underestimate the world too much. So, what will exist next in this world? Crossing the samurai? Magical Girl? Giants of Light?

I want to run away, I want to run away, I want to run away from this guy's eyes, I don't want to die, I don't want to die. The desire to survive in the depths of my heart is so straightforward and clear that Naoba is told that even if he is desperately cranky, it has no effect.

But she can't retreat no matter what, let alone run away, because behind her is her friend, one of her few friends and best friends, who has been scared of her legs and can't run away at all.

Holding the steel pipe in his hand tightly, Naoba, whose legs trembled, mustered up the courage to look at the murderer in front of him.

One step, two steps, three steps......

The shirtless man who looked like the rumored murderer, or the murderer. But that doesn't matter now! As the other party approached, Naoba's legs trembled more and more, and even his own hands trembled uncontrollably.

"Bell!" With the sound of long metal tapping, Naoba successfully blocked the opponent's first blow with the steel pipe in his hand with the swordsmanship he had acquired when he practiced with his brother in his grandfather's dojo.

But Naoye's heart sank completely, because the difference in strength between the two sides was too huge, and his hands were completely numb after they touched, and he couldn't hold the steel pipe in his hand at all, that is to say......

The second metal striking was much shorter than the first, and was followed by the sound of falling to the ground and rolling.

Watching the bloodstained kitchen knife slash towards her body, Naoba stood in despair with her empty hands, and countless past events kept emerging in her heart, as if the whole world, including the kitchen knife that was about to take her life, had been slowed down countless times.

Is this the so-called marquee? Am I going to die here? No, don't, I don't want to die yet! I want to go home and see my parents again! I want to go home and have that bland but warm dinner!

The most important thing is that I haven't confessed to my brother Kazuto!

I don't want to die yet!

With the intention of survival, Naoba's body moved, moving towards a place beyond the trajectory that the kitchen knife had predicted.

But it's too late, and Naoba himself is too weak, even if he mobilizes himself to the limit, he still can't dodge the kitchen knife that is about to cut his body.

Just when Naoba's mind was blank, an external force knocked Naoba away, causing Naoba to stumble out of the trajectory of the kitchen knife.

"You have to live, Miss."

Accompanied by this whisper, Naoba's eyes seemed to be sprinkled with the blood of the whole world.

This is not the blood of Naoha, nor the blood of a murderer, but the blood of Momoe Komoki.

At the last moment, Baihui, who suddenly gained courage and strength, pushed away Naoba, who was standing in front of him, trying to protect himself, but was about to be cut by a kitchen knife.

Although timid, though cowardly, although mediocre, though powerless.

But when you protect your companions at your own expense, you are a true brave.

"Pak Hui !!"
