Xiao Qing ran in the rain.

He got lost on his way to Mitsuha High School.

He's not a road idiot like Kyung-hee, at most he looks like it, and it's not the first time he's been to school.

He felt that his surroundings had changed, but he couldn't say anything about it.

He stopped and began to look around, when he suddenly heard the voice of a man behind him.

"Can an ordinary person like you feel it?"

Xiao Qing heard the prestige and saw a person standing under the street lamp. Hands crossed over chest, back against a wet lamppost.

If Eagle had known that Blade Ran would be here, he would never have gone then.

"My mission is to kill a mortal? Even if the city has an enchantment and you can't use elemental attacks, you don't have to use elements to kill, you don't have to use sharp weapons, fists, guns, gunpowder, or even pillows, ropes, bricks, and vases, because you are so weak that you can't even fall and die. Is there really no one to stop it? This poor, ignorant teenager is about to die before he has spent his youth, and he feels pitiful when he thinks about it. ”

Xiao Qing was at a loss, he noticed something unusual, the young man in front of him was like a lion that had broken free from the chains.

Blade Ran didn't move, because he also noticed something different, and he couldn't show a flaw at this time.

The rain became heavier and heavier, the sound of the rain began to be melodious, the wind began to howl, the dark clouds were thick, and the city was suddenly as dark as night, so the street lights suddenly turned on at this moment.

Xiao Qing was soaking wet, and his vision was blurred in the rain. He subconsciously retreated, and was about to turn around, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice say: "Don't be afraid, look at him, face him, there is nothing in this world that can make you feel afraid, especially insects." ”

Because it was that person's voice, Xiao Qing raised his head and plucked up his courage.

In the rain, a figure carrying a black bag slowly walked to Xiao Qing's side.

"From now on, I'm going to teach you something interesting." The person who spoke was none other than Yuno Ergo, who stuffed the black bag into Xiao Qing's arms and took out the katana engraved with the word "net" from it.

"What's that?"

"Close your eyes. Feel it with your heart. ”

Xiao Qing closed his eyes, but he didn't know how to feel it with his heart, but he quickly understood what Yuno Ergo meant.

When Yuno put his hand on his shoulder, Xiao Qing keenly felt a warm current coming from Yuno's palm and entering his body.

"What is this?" Xiao Qing asked.

"Lil."

"I don't understand."

"You just need to know, you don't need to understand, because no one can understand."

"Uncle, don't you exist for me?" Jian Ran said coldly, his eyes full of murderous intent.

Xiao Qing felt a chill hit him, but he didn't flinch.

Yuno ignored Jian Ran, he walked up to Xiao Qing, turned his back to him and said, "You just have to remember it, and then try to control it with your mind." ”

"Now?" Xiao Qing wondered: "It's raining so hard, should I find a place to shelter from the rain first?" ”

After Xiao Qing finished speaking, he found that he was the only one who was wet in the rain. Yuno Ergo, and Blade Ran's body seemed to be shrouded in a thin halo that loomed.

"If you don't want to catch a cold." Yuno Ergo said, his calm eyes fixed on Blade Ran from beginning to end.

"I'll try." Xiao Qing said, recalling the feeling when the warmth entered his body. He closed his eyes and felt the warmth in his body, like mushrooms after a rain. He tried to control the feeling with his mind, as Yuno said, so that he could also wear the halo of rain.

For just a moment, Xiao Qing felt that the rain seemed to stop, and the sound of the rain disappeared. So he opened his eyes to see if he had succeeded.

Xiao Qing was disappointed, the feeling in his body disappeared without a trace the moment he opened his eyes, and there was no change in his body. Then he began to wonder why the rain had suddenly stopped.

He looked at Yuno curiously. Xiongye couldn't see his expression when he turned his back to him, and under the street lamp not far away, Xiao Qing saw Jian Ran's face shocked.

Xiao Qing looked at the sky, and the majestic rain was also coming at the same time, and it was falling so that Xiao Qing couldn't catch it off guard. Xiao Qing wondered about the weather, but he didn't know that all this was caused by his thoughts. He did succeed in creating a "raincoat", but not just himself, but covering the entire city, instantly opening up a piece of heaven and earth to isolate the heavy rain.

"Now I know why, I'm on a mission to wipe you out." As he spoke, his right hand grabbed the elbow of his left hand, and with a forceful pull, he pulled out a bloody blade from his own flesh. The knife is like a living thing, absorbing blood, revealing a smooth blade.

"Erase?" Why erase yourself? Xiao Qing had no idea what he had done wrong. He looked incredulous as he saw Blade Ran pull the bloody blade from under his elbow. His emotions quickly calmed down, and nothing was to be fussed about. Since he was a child, he has been able to see things that others can't see, and he has also seen the "exorcism of strangers" with his own eyes.

Ghost? Or is it a demon? Or some other terrible monster? They live in this world with humans, and yet everyone seems to be blind to them. Except once, on his first day of junior high school, he rode his bicycle to see an eagle with a baseball bat and beat a monster to ashes.

Xiao Qing never spoke to anyone about what he had seen and heard. Because surely no one will believe it, and he has always told himself that.

His parents didn't believe it, and angrily told him not to talk nonsense, because others would think he was a strange child. He goes to the police for help, saying that there are monsters that are going to be bad for his parents. The policeman's uncle told him that there were no monsters in the world, and asked him to watch less animation and play more with other children. When Xiao Qing returned home disappointed, he saw his parents and fell downstairs one after another.

He understands that there is a side of the world that he doesn't know about, and he chooses to turn a blind eye and begins to flee from places where there are ghosts. He came to the restaurant of Yuno Ergo, and he wore it in and out of this area, because there was not even a ghost here. However, just as he saw Yuno, he seemed to understand the reason. There seemed to be some kind of power in that man, he was upright, and the ghosts couldn't avoid it.

Xiao Qing saw the knife that Yuno cut open the fish belly, and finally couldn't help but sigh, it was really amazing. It's impossible for me to be as good as that man in the game. He saw the knife in the window, and was deeply attracted, and he saw that on the scabbard of a knife covered with yellow charms, countless demons and monsters were sleeping.

Xiao Qing knew at that time that they were afraid of the knife, not Yuno Ergo, and the reason why Yuno asked him what he was looking at that day was just shaking his head.

Master Ono can't see it, right? Xiao Qing thought like this at the time, because when they looked at the window at the same time, all those demons looked at Xiao Qing fiercely, but none of them looked at Xiongye, and they were curious why Xiao Qing could see them.

Because you can see it, because of your own differences, so, that teenager wants to kill himself? Xiao Qing didn't understand.

Blade Ran walked slowly with a sharp blade in his hand, his eyes sharp and glowing with a pale blue light.

"Transport. The rhythm runs in the body, the control law spreads to all parts of the body, the rhythm is produced in the blood, and it reaches all parts of the body through the veins. Given to the eye, you can see the distance, and the near can be observed. Yuno said, and when his hand grasped the hilt of the sword, Blade Ran stopped, because at that moment, he felt Yuno Ergo's terrifying aura turn into an invisible blade.

"Before the knife comes out, check its edge first. You're not bad, either. It's just a pity ......," Yuno said.

"What a pity?"

"There is a road in heaven that you don't go, and there is no door in Huangquan, you break in."

"I know you don't have good things to say."

"Good words are always bad. If you don't want to listen, we can speak with a knife. ”

"My knife only kills."

"It just so happens that my knife has always only cut insects."

Blade Ran's eyes widened, the blue light in his eyes deeper and brighter, and he swung out a few steps apart.

If time slows down, you can see the beautiful sight of the raindrops being cut one by one.

In Yuno's equally dark blue eyes, time was so slow.

Yuno could easily avoid it, but he didn't do it because there was still a person standing behind him. So he drew his sword and read, "Sweep the sun." ”

In the rain, the sword light was vertical and horizontal, cutting through two sharp vacuums.

Yuno was even better, cutting off the sword light that Blade Ran swung, and he was unstoppable, approaching Blade Ran.

Yuno retracted his knife, the blade went up, his pace was light, his body twisted, and he avoided Yuno's attack at the same time, he rushed with his knife and landed on the ground.

Seeing Yuno's action of retracting the knife, he found the right time and suddenly broke out, wanting to catch Yuno off guard.

Who knows, Yuno's speed is as fast as thunder, and before he draws his sword, he even unhurriedly assumes an ancient and solemn pose. The blade in his hand was only half pulled out, because the blade Ra sped him up and didn't give Yuno a chance to pull the knife out.

Yuno is calm. He pulled out half of the knife, and it was actually pointed at himself. The bladed knife slashed at the hard back of the knife, and he suddenly felt a tingle. Yuno drew his sword without pause or delay, and once he drew his sword, he not only blocked Blade's attack, but also changed Blade's knife momentum.

When Blade Ran lost his center of gravity, Yuno actually did not take advantage of the momentum to pursue, but instead withdrew his knife, turned around, and exposed his back to the blade of Blade Ran's bright blade.

When Jian Ran saw the opportunity, where was he willing to let it go, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, he stabbed it quickly, but it was empty.

Yuno's figure suddenly disappeared, and while backflipping, he drew his sword out of its sheath.

In times of crisis, the blade swings upward. The two knives rubbed by, the fire splashed everywhere, and the faint light and fire in the rain curtain were very beautiful.

Yuno had already retracted the knife when his left foot landed, and when his right foot landed on the ground, he had already drawn the knife.

"I don't know."

Before he could turn around, he closed his eyes and listened to the law, preoccupied. He heard the sound of the rain being cut drop by drop, and with all his strength, he twisted his waist and turned around to cut it off.

With a bang, the light flashed.

"Give the law to the ears, and hear the wind."

"You still have time to preach?" Blade Ran said quietly.

A few times against each other, they swapped positions. Xiao Qing was exposed at this moment where the blade of the blade could be reached at any time. He didn't run away, his eyes glowed with a pale blue, and he saw the rain falling slowly drop by drop, beautiful, and the melodious sound of the rain was so careless.

Facing Xiongye, Jian Ran didn't even dare to glance at Xiao Qing with his spare eyes. At this time, a three-year-old child, holding a knife, can come forward and stab him twice.

"And of course thank you for your enthusiastic performance, you did a great job, textbook demonstration." Yuno boasted.

Jian Ran pursed his lips and said, "Why do you put away the knife, it's such a good opportunity." ”

"Collecting the knife is to draw the knife, and it can be put away before it can be released. Moreover, the class time has just begun. Yuno said, smiling slightly.
