The heavy atmosphere flowed through every part of the room, the flickering candle flame set off the illusory shadow, and the leather gloves placed aside were solemnly picked up by one person, put on his hand, and fit tightly with every finger.

"Click-"

The notes of the gear bearing jumped and fell into the ears, and a sharp iron object fell from the outstretched palm of the hand with a crisp and pleasant clanging sound, and some fell to the ground, colliding with each other.

"The weapon is in good condition and there is no damage."

Paimon nodded contentedly as he touched a bamboo pipe and looked it up and down with his leather-gloved hand, picking up the bag full of nails and hanging it around his waist, his floating figure falling unexpectedly.

Not paying attention to this trivial episode, and skillfully ignoring it, Paimon, who had prepared his weapon, grimaced his sleeves with a majestic and cold face, and stepped forward with his little feet in mid-air.

"The sages of the Akademiya are mediocre, brutal and tyrannical, like Lawrence in ancient times, with the wind of the Fatui today, as the so-called Mo Dao Shiren has one eye, instigating the world of Sumeru to rebel, the sages have long been unpopular with the people, just when we make contributions and claim the king!"

Paimon's voice was excited, and he turned his back to the two of them and spread his hands, "Family and friends, what day is Sumeru now?" Depressed and heavy, without half vitality and happiness, even if we try our best to hold a traditional festival, we will be stopped by this group of insects and leopards......"

"Worm." Ulloins covered her mouth and coughed twice.

"This swarm of worms...... Worm ......"

Nilou kindly reminded, "Pig." ”

"It doesn't matter what it is, we should understand that these sages don't see us as human beings, they don't think we deserve the joy that humans should have! They suppress entertainment, erase art, and want each of us to be like a tool of calm and sanity. ”

Paimon, whose eyes were clear-eyed, decisively tampered with the speech and said impassionedly:

"I don't know what they're trying to do, but I only know one thing, they don't treat us as human beings! If you want the traveler to work and get the rough stone, this traveler can be called a yellow-haired fool, and they not only do not pay us, but also squeeze our leisure and entertainment, such an Akademiya has no need to exist! ”

Almost shouting his last words in a roaring gesture, Paimon gently withdrew his outstretched arms and closed his eyes and ears for a moment.

“……”

After waiting for a long time, there was still no uplifting applause, and the mascot had to reopen his eyes and look back at the two of them.

"Now let's take the first step in the revolt!"

“……”

Paimon's head tilted back, his palms waving along with the words, "We're going to use our blood to tell the sages that we're not travelers, we're not tools!" ”

“……”

"Applause—"

"Bang Bang Bang~~"

The crisp appeal was soon greeted with sparse applause, and Paimon waved his hand indifferently as he enjoyed the attention from others.

"You don't have to thank me, you don't have to worry about the failure of the resistance, I will open up a new path this time, tell them that I have been here, and there will be many ideal followers to continue to blaze new trails!"

As planned, the foreign heroes who came from afar left behind a scorching fire, and then decisively pushed the door out and embarked on the road of resistance, leaving only the people to look at the back of the death, stunned, surprised and singing.

She proved by her actions that mediocrity is destined to meet resistance, that noble ideals will never be degraded by the dung of the world, and that the right to freedom will eventually return to the people.

Praise, heroes of resistance!

Praise, companions of heroes!

"It's up to you, Nilou!"

The rebellious hero raised his right hand, looked at the two scholars who had come to the Grand Bazaar unhurriedly along the passageway, and said with great interest: "Let them suffer the punishment they deserve!" The poem of the god of wind, a knife without thinking can be used. ”

"What is this?"

"Of course it's a god's move, huhuhahe."

"......"

"Nilou!"

Holding Nilou's delicate and fair face with both hands, Paimon asked solemnly, "You know that what you want is a perfect flower god sacrifice and you don't want to let these two guys in and make trouble, do you?" And what are you worried about? They weren't real people. ”

Nilou blinked and whispered, "Why don't you get it?" I can try to give you access to the dream realm. ”

"Is that okay? May I? ”

"It should be possible, after all, dreams are very absurd, imagination is wantonly creating, nothing happens is not an uncommon thing, I have always been hesitant to fantasize about the little auspicious grass king."

"Don't fantasize~ Little Auspicious Grass King must be looking at you, Uloins and I met because of her, she can see at a glance that Paimon is extremely smart, as if he is an Yae Miko who has removed the crumbs, of course......"

Paimon crossed his arms over his chest: "The subsequent encounter is also thanks to Paimon, if it weren't for Paimon's nose spirit, I would still be arguing with that stupid red ghost." ”

Joy descended from heaven, and Nilou clenched her hands into fists in front of her chest and prayed silently, "Is that so?" Little auspicious grass king, I will definitely present you with a beautiful dance, you must watch it carefully! ”

◇

The delicate pattissalan grows out of thin air and floods the vase, and the crystal clear water droplets flow from the petals, turning the stage into a lake, and the butterflies dragging their streamers out of the lake and driving the breeze with them.

The Grand Bazaar seems to be blown up by the breeze, and countless crystal butterflies fly to all directions of Sumeru City, guiding every guest to step on the passage decorated with flowers and green leaves.

"It's so beautiful~"

Paimon looked up at Nilou, who looked up at Nilou on the stage like a water lily that had never been curled, and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

"It's just a prelude now, and when the dance actually begins, you'll understand why Nilou is considered the best dancer in all of Sumeru, and I was lucky enough to see her on stage for the first time as a scholar, and the scene was far less gorgeous than it is now."

"Ulloins, I thought you didn't know how to appreciate art, after all, you didn't see Nilou once when you followed Mr. Zubayr."

Ulloins' face sank, "I'm called a professional!" When you follow others, you can't delay your pace because of other factors, no matter how much you appreciate art, you can't take care of personal affairs when performing official duties, I learned this from Cyno-sama. ”

Paimon echoed perfunctorily, "I understand that he doesn't tell jokes when he's on duty. ”

"How do you know?"

"Sori has said it so many times, and she feels so psychologically shadowed by your boss telling a bad joke."

"Oh, maybe it's the cold joke we usually used to push her out to face Lord Cyno."

"It's you who are to blame."

"How can we be blamed? It was she who hid whenever she had free time, and this selfish behavior must be punished...... Here it comes. ”

The brisk dance steps slowly paddled by, and the water surface rippled a little, like a lotus flower born by the moonlight opening its petals, and a released crystal butterfly spreading its wings.

Every swing of the limbs brings up a hazy water color, outlining the illusory water lotus, the movement is soft and beautiful, more dazzling than the tail feathers of the colorful bird.

The musicians on both sides of the stage puffed up and fluttered, their wrists swinging and beating, playing music from a desert oasis, the accompaniment chosen by the former god of flowers, but different, mixed with the sound of Sumeru's forest.

"Unlike Nabu, what was once a dance for a close friend is now an expression of the joy and sincerity of the people."

"I remember Nabu as if it were...... Eh——! ”

Paimon suddenly let out a low cry of surprise, turned his head to look at the source of the sound, and the taste buds hidden in his throat moved, and asked in surprise, "Zhishui, haven't you entered the dream reincarnation?" You didn't bring the Void Terminal either! ”

"The dream realm is very convenient."

"Is this Sumeru's Flower God Birthday Sacrifice?"

A pair of lotus arms wrapped around the neck of the white hair bound by the red rope, and the bright eyes poked out to watch.

"Why is Ayaka here?"

"It's still a dream of travel."

"Liar, I thought you were going to get the connection into your own dreams at most...... Then why not bring Ayato in as well? He should be eager to meet Ayaka! ”

In the face of Paimon's inquiry, Shisui pondered for a moment, "He has a little ...... now Well...... Not very convenient..."
