Lightning and thunder, wind and rain, and the storm have been ruthlessly ravaging this land for more than an hour.

Even though all the doors and windows were closed, the dull and fierce thunder continued to come in from the air, from the walls, and from the floor beneath his feet, and the castle was not at peace for a moment. The wind was howling outside, and the windows were slamming. The screams like ghosts crying wolves are incessant, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

When the thunder and lightning stopped, there was only a thick pitch black outside, and there was no way to make out how heavy the rain was. However, when the raindrops are occasionally blown by the wind and hit the walls or window panes, the crackling sound makes people feel that it is not rain that falls on them, but countless steel balls. With such a dense process, you can't help but worry about whether they will break the windows.

Until now, the storm shows no signs of stopping.

After getting through the initial panic, everyone slowly calmed down. After all, they were in the castle, and no matter how strong the wind and rain outside the window were, they couldn't get close to them, and it was completely unnecessary to be afraid. After getting used to it, the girls even had the courage to put their faces to the window and giggle and discuss the rain outside.

But if the thunder was particularly loud, they would scream and run back and hug me tightly. After the thunder subsided, he cautiously returned to continue watching, and ran back again after the thunder, repeating this thing repeatedly.

Perhaps, they are not just scared, but the other reason for doing this is probably that they think it is more interesting!

However, not everyone can appear as calm as they are. From the moment the thunder and lightning reached the top of our heads, the Imaizumi Shadow Wolf began to become very anxious, and kept crawling on the ground. Whenever the deafening thunder sounded, her tail would stand up high, like a flag. The body was also lowered, and he kept whining outside.

But even this vicious roar could not hide her very obvious fear.

No matter how strong an individual is, he is vulnerable to the earth-shattering forces of nature.

As for why those little girls don't feel scared, in fact, it is estimated that their nerves are too big. In addition, he is relatively young, and he still doesn't understand how terrible the wind and rain outside is.

Seeing Imaizumi Shadow Wolf become more and more irritable, I was worried about whether she would go crazy due to the overstimulation of the thunder.

"Come here. ”

I waved at her and shouted.

"Huh?"

Imaizumi Shadow Wolf looked at me, his expression hesitated slightly, and in the end, he probably couldn't bear the fierce thunder, so he quickly ran over, pounced, and pounced on me.

"Woo!!!"

The girl's whole body was pressed against my legs, and her face was buried deep in my arms. Although I couldn't see her expression, the trembling delicate body showed that she was really scared.

And she put her hands around my waist.

It was the first time she had done so.

Normally, she would just put her hands on my lap.

"You ......"

I was slightly surprised, but in the end I didn't say anything, just gently stroked her head. Under my reassurance, Imaizumi Shadow Wolf gradually calmed down, and his body trembled less violently.

At this time, Dark suddenly came over and brought his mouth to my ear.

"Master, Miss Alice, they're here. ”

"Oh, bring them here!"

"Yes. ”

The maid bowed slightly, and walked away quickly.

Fortunately, the [Piercing Gate] has been moved to the castle, otherwise this heavy rain would not have drenched them from head to toe!

However, if this kind of weather really happens, the [Crossing Gate] will also be closed, and outsiders will not be able to enter at all.

After waiting for a long time, I heard a chaotic sound of footsteps approaching. But before that, I first heard Alice's slightly squeamish voice.

"Xiao Ai, what do you say? Wasn't the weather good when you came in? Why is it suddenly raining so heavily now?"

"It's not the same as Gensokyo, it's a different world. ”

The girl patiently explained that since she came in, Alice's questions have not stopped, and there are a lot of questions crackling. Even when you see an electric light, you have to ask how it emits light.

But it's no wonder that everyone who comes here for the first time will be shocked by the qiē of this place, not to mention that Alice, who has never been far away, is very normal to be curious about everything here.

"Oh, isn't it like our Demon Realm and this Gensokyo?"

"Uh...... Almost!"

The figure of a group of people finally appeared from the door.

"Wow, oh!"

Looking at the brightly lit living room, the little girl's eyes were about to bulge out in surprise.

Under your feet is a red carpet embroidered with patterns, which is light and fluffy when you step on it. The three crystal chandeliers hanging high on the ceiling use long crystals the thickness of a finger to form a circle, from top to bottom, gradually shrinking, a total of six layers. The transparent crystal reflected the light emitted by the unknown light source in the center, illuminating the open hall. Sofas, tables and chairs are scattered throughout the hall, so that they do not look empty or cramped. There are also handicrafts scattered in the corners or indoor potted plants, which are also arranged with ingenuity.

This luxurious yet elegant decoration was an eye-opener for Alice.

Compared to here, my own home is too simple.

"What's in there?"

In the doorway was a bottle much taller than her, with a wide mouth and a round belly, and those pale blue patterns on the surface that she had never seen before. The girl went up and slapped a few times, and there was a sonorous sound, and it sounded like it should be empty inside.

"Huh?"

Since it's not used to hold things, what are you doing here? Won't it take up space?

"Alice, don't knock. ”

Alice hurriedly went over and pulled her away. I don't know the severity of her shot, and I'm really worried that this girl will accidentally shoot things up. Although Dongfang Yao is not angry about this, he is always embarrassed.

"Oooh. ”

The girl didn't say anything, there were so many interesting things here, she couldn't keep them busy.

"Welcome. ”

I wanted to stand up to greet them, but I was now being hugged tightly by the Imaizumi Shadow Wolf, and it was difficult to move even if I wanted to. So, I could only turn my head and smile apologetically at them.

"Ah, how did you end up here?"

It seemed that only then did she notice my memory, and Alice pointed at me and shouted loudly, with an incredulous expression on her face.

"Of course, this is my house!"

"Eh, eh!"

It's incredible, after a moment of stagnation, it immediately turns into disbelief.

"You're liaring, isn't this Marisa's home?"

I heard that the succubus also lived here, so I came here to meet each other, so I would never have come.

"That guy is just a parasite. ”

"Parasite ......"

The girl's mouth was purred, and her eyes were purring.

"Xiao Ai, is what she said true?"

As a result, she still didn't believe me.

"Hmm. ”

Alice nodded a little crying and laughing, and even said that Marisa was a parasite, and if she knew about it, she wouldn't jump up in anger!

However, the girl felt that the name was very suitable for her.

"Whew, how can this ......"

Even if it was confirmed, the little girl still couldn't believe it.

Am I the master of this place so unacceptable to her?

"Boom ......"

A sudden bright light flashed outside the window, and a loud roar followed, which woke Alice in a daze. She quickly raised her head, and with the fleeting light outside the window, she saw a wider world.

The girl rushed to the window almost as fast as she ran.

In the distance, several thunderbolts lit up the sky, and through the heavy curtain of rain, she saw a body of water that was rolling with monstrous waves, driven by a fierce wind.

It's like a lake, but it's so big that you can't see the edge.

"Xiao Ai, Xiao Ai, hurry up!"

Alice waved her hand and shouted in this direction.

A bunch of imps, probably thinking that she had discovered something, also pressed their faces to the windowpane, trying to look out with their eyes wide open.

However, there seems to be nothing else besides wind, rain, thunder and lightning!

"Excuse me. ”

Alice heard her call and hurried over.

"What's wrong?"

"Look, what is that?"

"Huh?"

The rain trickled down from the glass, distorting everything outside, but Alice recognized what she was referring to.

"That's the sea. ”

"The sea!"

Alice's eyes lit up, and for her, who had never seen anything like this, the ocean was infinitely attractive.

"That's the sea! ”

The girl squeezed almost her entire face into the window, staring out without blinking.

Under the shroud of darkness, the boiling ocean undulated endlessly, rising wave after wave in the sky.

Like a fearless warrior who never backs down.

"In the daytime, it's even more beautiful!"

Well, it should be daytime now!

Alice scratched her head, feeling a little troubled.

She is also very fond of the sea.

Sometimes, Alice would run to the beach alone and stay quiet for hours.

Standing in the gentle sea breeze and gazing at the little white gulls flying on the sea, it seems that people's hearts have become infinitely broad.

"Really?

Alice's eyes shone with anticipation.

"Then Xiao Ai, will you take me next time?"

"No problem!"

The girl smiled and nodded.

"Not today!"

A very sudden male voice made Alice, who was still elated, feel very bad immediately, and her small mouth also pouted.

Damn, where are the two sisters going, do they still have to ask this guy's opinion?

Well, but Xiao Ai said that this is his home! If he wants to go somewhere, he may really have to ask for the other party's consent!

Thinking of this, the little girl who was full of resentment immediately lost the confidence to refute, and could only stare at the man with great annoyance.

I glanced at the girl, a little curious.

Why are you staring at me so suddenly?

"Why not?"

Alice was not angry, she understood that the other party must have some reason for saying this.

"You know what it's like to be in a place that's been ravaged by a storm, right?"

After the storm has passed, the coast will only be left in a mess! That kind of miserable scene can definitely not be said to be pleasing to the eye.

"Oh......"

The girl reacted and couldn't help but knock on her head, how could she forget about this matter?

Alice next to her didn't say anything, but she seemed to understand something, and she didn't seem so angry.

"How many days will it take?"

"One day at most. ”

In one day, the damage caused by the storm can be repaired.

Actually, I think natural rejuvenation is the best.

"This ...... That's pretty much it. ”

This little girl, who never gave me a good look, smiled sincerely at me for the first time.

The charm of the sea is really amazing!
