Actually, it wasn't the first time the two had met.

But the first memory that Xiao Gucheng could recall for her, Blue Feather Shallot, was that night, in a dimly lit waiting room in the hospital.

It was past nine o'clock in the evening. There are no more patients or visitors from outside. It was pitch black outside the window, and the courtyard was silent. Only the faint light of the emergency lights illuminated the young girl.

The ancient city that happened to pass by here stopped and fixed its gaze on the side of her face.

Half of the reason was because the girl looked familiar.

The other half was because she looked like she was crying.

Realizing that the ancient city was so staring, the shallots suddenly raised their heads.

Strong eyes, soaked with tears, stared at him from the front.

The ancient city was a little surprised by this. Blue Feather Shallot, who was originally in the classroom, was an inconspicuous girl who seemed to be very honest, which is such an impression.

"You...... Looks like it's new to our school, right? ”

Shallot asked in a surprisingly calm tone. The ancient city sighed briefly.

"At least call me a transfer student. I came here about two months ago. ”

"Is that so...... But I don't care. ”

The shallots gave up and shrugged their shoulders. Although she only found out after that, it is said that she has been living on this small artificial island known as String God Island since she was a kindergarten. Judging from such shallots, the ancient city, which has only been on the island for less than two months, is indeed just a newcomer.

"Yours, where's the glasses?"

I realized the reason why I felt a sense of discord with what I usually saw in the classroom. Gucheng asked. In the memory of the ancient city, the shallots have always worn bland glasses.

But shallots shook their heads without hesitation.

"That's pretended. Originally, the eyesight was not very bad. ”

"I see. How can I say that-"

The ancient city almost said, "What a good beauty is all ruined," but immediately swallowed it back. Because it's just too nosy to think about it. And the light onion stared at such an ancient city in surprise.

"Anyway, why are you in the hospital at such a time? Did you hurt your finger? ”

“…… If I just hurt my finger, I wouldn't have come to such a big hospital......"

Gu Gu replied with a twitch of his face. It seems that the shallots also know that the ancient city is a member of the basketball club for the time being. Still looking at it with her swollen crying eyes, she smiled mischievously.

"So, what's going on? Could it be that he suffered a serious injury that could cut the player's life in half? ”

"Stop me, it's too unlucky."

The corners of his lips crooked in disgust, and the ancient city lowered his voice. Try not to be too profound, and state the facts.

"My sister is in the hospital. Since we have been on this island. ”

"Yes...... That's right......"

The shallot's expression did not change. But at that moment, from her voice, she felt that her vigilance and hostility towards the ancient city had faded, and this should not be an illusion.

"Why are you standing? Sit down? ”

Fold the laptop that it holds on its lap. Shallot gestured to the seat next to him.

"No, but ah......"

"It's okay. If I cried alone in a place like this, it would make people look at me like a very miserable person. ”

"I don't think even if I were here, I wouldn't have improved much."

Even the words of comfort you expect will only bother me, Gucheng thought. Seeing this, the shallots smiled wickedly. It's obviously an indisputable beauty, but she shows such a very frank and simple smile

"It's okay. If someone says something, it's like you've made you cry. ”

"What the hell, that's. Isn't it too much for me? ”

"That's all, you can bear with me. This is the punishment of seeing my suffering. ”

For her unreasonable statement, Gu Gu smiled bitterly. The cheerful attitude of not letting the other person realize that they are of the opposite sex is really comfortable. It makes you feel as if you're with a male friend you've been friends with for a long time.

And Gucheng knew that the death of Shallot's mother that night was a few days later.

This is the memory of a young man named Xiao Gucheng, who became the strongest vampire in the world and was called the Fourth True Ancestor-

……

- That's it. This is a memory of the original Xiao Ancient City, but even the current ancient city can feel the shallow mood at that time.

Inside the train in the crowded morning. Tired palm broadcasting, and hypnotic monotonous acceleration. Outside the window, you can see the artificial street construction of Xianjin City and the blue sea illuminated by the morning sun. It's all the scenery of the Demon Special Zone that I'm used to.

Is it a dream, the ancient city thought and sighed.

"Senior."

"Huh? …… What the!? ”

From a close distance, Hiiragi Yukina called his name, and the ancient city let out a heartfelt cry of sorrow.

With her lips puffed out ——,, Yukina looked up at the ancient city as if she was not convinced.

Because it is within the time zone of school, there are students from the same school other than the old city in the car. The old town, which goes to school with cute juniors like Yukina, bears the envious gaze of the surroundings.

However, his naturally handsome appearance made it impossible for the other students to have a disgusting expression towards him. After all, not only is Gucheng extremely popular among girls, but he also occupies a very high position among boys.

It can be said that it is above the predecessors and no one is below.

School flowers with school grass - a perfect match.

However, in reality, Yukina is just watching the ancient city because of her mission, but even if she advocates this in this case, no one will believe it. Even if the true identity of the ancient city is a vampire known as the "Fourth True Ancestor", and the black guitar case on Yukina's back contains the Demon Breaking Spear that can kill the True Ancestor.

"Oh, yes. I'm sorry. A little confused. ”

"You just have to see that kind of thing."

"Yes, yes."

“…… Is it something on your mind? It seems like I had some bad dream. ”

Yukina asked with a serious expression, and the ancient city twitched again. It can't be said that I remembered the first meeting with shallots, and it's strange that the little girl doesn't eat flying vinegar later.

"It's just a little sleepy, it's fine."

“…… Is it the Blue Feather senior's business? ”

"Huh!?"

Almost saying "why do you know such a thing", Gucheng hurriedly swallowed the sentence. It deserves to be called the Sword Witch. Yukina's inspiration is really not to be taken lightly.

Gucheng was in a cold sweat and looked away from Yukina, who was approaching step by step.

"Of course not."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Then why look away, senior."

"Just, even if you say that, it's a bit ...... from this point of view."

"Angle?"

Yukina was stunned and blinked.

The height difference between her small and the ancient city is twenty centimeters. In other words, if you look down at Yukina from this position, it will just become a posture of peeking into the chest of her uniform.

That is, the snow-white skin that protrudes slightly from the neckline and the bulge between the smile that is still a little weak called Fukaya-

"Senior......!"

Suddenly, covering her chest with her hands, Yukina glared at the ancient city. The ancient city shook his head desperately.

"It's none of my business, hey!"

“…… That's true. As it was the same senior, I was relieved. ”

Yukina sighed deeply as if she had given up. The ancient city's face is full of black lines - is this a disguised way to say that he is a pervert and a pervert? Anyway, it's good to move the topic away, but for some reason I still can't put my mind at ease.

When the driverless train arrived at the station, the doors opened. Mixed with the students who got off the bus one after another, they walked to the ticket gate.

It takes less than 10 minutes to walk from the station to Saikai Gakuen. The ancient city walked tirelessly on the gentle slope that had been artificially designed. Looking at such a side face of the ancient city, Yukina frowned worriedly.

"Senior, are you really okay? His face doesn't look very good. ”

"I can't help it. It's really hard for a vampire's physique to attend classes at this time. Really. ”

With an expression of resentment, the ancient city looked up at the blue sky where the weather was too good.

Floating in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, Xianjin Island is a man-made city that grows all year round and in summer. Even in October, there is no autumn breath, and there is still a strong sun shining. Even if it's not a vampire, it's a bit of a struggle.

"And I've been sleep deprived lately."

"Sleep deprivation?"

"Well, because that guy often calls me in the middle of the night."

"Phone? Miss Saya Hana to the senior? ”

Yukina's eyes widened as if surprised.

"It's been like this once in a while, since last time. When asked about Yukina's situation that day, or somehow was inexplicably preached for a meal or something. It's obviously nothing important, but what's going on? Isn't that guy very nasty about men? I asked her, but she said that you couldn't chat with me because you didn't have a mobile phone. ”

Recalling Sayaka's prickly attitude when they met, Guru sighed.

Sayaka Kasaka is a demon attacker who belongs to the Lion King's trap like Yukina.

It is said that she has had excellent spiritual ability since she was a child, and her father, Qin, who was taboo about her ability, committed violence against her on a daily basis. That's why she hates all men now. But the exception is the ancient city.

Hearing this, Yukina He became serious and said as if she was talking to herself.

“…… Miss Saya Hana used to hate phone calls, so there were some problems. Even the boss of the Lion King agency called and said that it was because there was a man's voice in his ear, and he couldn't stand it, so he refused to accept it for any reason. ”

"Of course I know that, but she still calls me? Don't tell me it's because I'm a special case. ”

"Well, this-" Yukina looked at the ancient city and said, "I think it's because of the seniors." ”

"Pull it down!" The ancient city looked at Yukina in disbelief.

"That, maybe."
