It's eight o'clock in the evening.

At this time when even the delivery has closed, Misaki City fell into a deathly silence.

Although the lights of the city are swaying at night, the surroundings of Aoko Aosaki are still silent.

The reason why it's so quiet is because of where they are now.

One of the fulcrums of Misaki City that has not yet been disturbed by outsiders, Taochuan.

Except for a viaduct that is almost unused, all that remains is the babbling river.

Although this river is the largest river in Misaki City, it is not connected to the estuary like Fuyuki City, and it has economic benefits, but in terms of scenery, Misaki, which is still in the countryside, has nothing to offer, so naturally no one cares about it.

There is still a long way to go after taking the bus, which not only isolates the hustle and bustle of the street, but also blocks out the moonlight, and in the cold and dreary night, two footsteps break the silence.

"There don't seem to be traps in this area, and it seems that we have taken this position."

Kuenji Yuzhu spoke, looking at the sky and looking at the flock of birds scattered around him.

Taking advantage of the day's work, she refilled the sixpence song that was eaten by Aoko, thanks to the fact that the body of this demon is only chocolate refined by magic, and the original purpose was only to be used as a substitute for emergency medicine, and it is not troublesome to remake it.

"Is there no trace of the enemy?"

Aoko Aosaki, who was wearing a school uniform, looked around, vigilantly looking at everything around her.

"At least not yet, but the people who can hide from the barrier may have been following us all along, but we haven't found out yet, and besides, whether that guy shows up or not, we're going to have to deal with those daily attacks."

The indifferent witch naturally took out the cat bell from under the cloak and began to sing her own fairy tale.

Aoko Aosaki bent down slightly, carefully observing the target in the distance.

From the shadows of the trees on the road above the riverbank, I don't know when there were several more figures.

Although Aoko thinks of the shadows of the hanging branches as thorns, imagining this as a fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty. But the apprentice magician doesn't seem to have the lovable character of a princess. She will neither wait for the arrival of the prince nor fall asleep.

The princess who lives in the castle has come to meet the challenger in good spirits.

The intruder who came out of the darkness walked out slowly on all fours, with no skin, no clothes, and a spherical posture at the joints, no nose or eyes on his face, like a pure white mannequin.

"That bastard sister is really going to make a mess of people."

Although Aozaki Orange himself doesn't seem to be present yet, the almost daily interference still shows the presence of the other party.

Aoko Aosaki smacked her tongue and took the initiative to walk towards the puppets on all fours.

"Leave it to me, you can continue to prepare."

The moment her words fell, the cyan magic bullet had already taken the lead, directly blasting the puppet in front into wreckage.

Seeing that the cohabitant had grown a lot, Jiuyuan Temple Youzhu bowed slightly, walked towards the bank of the river, and threw down the cat bell in his hand.

The tranquil bell of the feast of the night rang in their hearts, and the night was drawn up in a dark curtain, as if it were a stage curtain when changing scenes, and when it was removed again, a certain "situation" appeared.

The magic of the fairy tale night of Kuenji Temple is about to begin.

If Aoko's magic trick is compared to the burst of a western cowboy, then the bead is the trick of the master trickster. It will rush into the cracks of the viewer's consciousness, attacking it boldly and vividly and without flaws until it achieves its goal.

The fairy tale belonging to children is reproduced again and opens with a rather grand gesture.

In addition to being the fulcrum of the strongest magic in Taochuan, in addition to the viaduct, there are not many man-made objects, and even the street lamps cannot be seen, which is undoubtedly very convenient for Jiuyuan Temple Youzhu.

Although it can create a primitive environment where even fantasies can come true, the feast of the night is extremely afraid of artificial light sources and loses its home field advantage, which is undoubtedly a troublesome scene for a fairy tale witch with obvious strengths and weaknesses.

However, she also has a backhand, but since the first step plan has not been disturbed, the backhand that originally turned the tide is now just the icing on the cake.

Without hesitation, Youzhu of Jiuyuan Temple took out one cat bell after another and threw it into the ground again, and after the ripples were repeated five times, the environment here was already with an uncomfortable sense of oppression.

The feast of the night that Youzhu had just consumed meaninglessly was designed to achieve such an effect.

In such an environment, she would have the greatest home advantage, and with a gentle pat on her black cloak, a piglet made of two rolling dice reappeared beside her.

After everything was in order, she turned her attention back to Aoko Aosaki.

The Song of Sixpence had detected a growing group of dolls, but Aoko Aosaki, who was still fighting, had no intention of asking for help, she had already lit her magic mark, turning the frog-like dolls into scattered wreckage with machine-gun-like fire, and even if they continued to assemble them with the stumps of their companions as much as possible, they would not be able to set foot on the riverbank.

Although they are combat-type, these puppets rely more on their own mechanisms, although the arms stretched out like guns are enough to catch ordinary magicians off guard, but

Compared to the previous dumb shooting method, Aoko Aosaki, who has learned to release magic powers, doesn't care about this kind of melee threat.

She dodged the incoming attack with the smallest movements, her hair fluttering savagely in the night sky, her expression so calm that it was even a little disgusted, as if she felt that the enemy was not strong enough.

"Looks like we don't need help"

Kuenji Youzhu muttered, staring at the darkness that had spread to Aoko's side, feeling the surprising cleanliness in the other party's shadow, and suddenly raised his head and stared at the shadow with chromatic difference, which was completely different from the thick and cold darkness of the night feast that had been repeated five times.

"It's all like this, so there's no need to hide your body."

Kuenji Youzhu said in a cold and deep voice like a howling blizzard.

Suddenly, a laugh rang out.

"Using props to construct the heterogeneous darkness as a reference, to contrast with my own pure shadow color, is just as simple and effective as judging the attack time by counting blood droplets against an opponent who can be deleted in time."

It seems that because of the decisive battle, compared to yesterday's haze, today's attackers did not hide their tones.

Even a layman can clearly hear that this condescending voice belongs to a young man.

"Miss Witch, although you haven't experienced many battles, there is no doubt that you are a real warrior, as for Miss Aosaki, you have also made great progress, although they are not the trump card of the orange, but according to the current situation, if she does not come in person, she will not be able to solve you by relying only on things like dolls."

Before Yuzhu of Jiuyuan Temple could say anything, Aozaki Aoko showed a shocked expression because of this voice.

She hadn't heard such an arrogant voice, but this familiar feeling couldn't be faked, but how could it be?

Ignoring the cohabitant with a stiff expression, Yuju of Kuenji stared at the young man who was gradually revealing his silhouette from the shadows.

The old friend who was able to call himself in such an affectionate tone and lived peacefully until now already means a lot of things.

The reason why the other party can act freely in the enchantment without being discovered is also obvious.,Before Aozaki Aoko inherited it.,The person who has been cultivated as an heir is an orange.,The enchantment is also in charge of managing it.,It's normal to leave a few back doors for yourself.。

But Kuenji Youzhu still can't understand why Aozaki Orange is looking for external strength in such a solemn matter as revenge?

The reason why she left the Aozaki family was because her pride could not accept her grandfather's choice, so she left the Aozaki family and broke into a new world alone in the clock tower.

More importantly, why would the other party target him?

Because of the special system, the value that other people can get from the fairy tale witch is completely disproportionate to the price to be paid, which is the main reason why Yuju of Kuyuan Temple can avoid disputes.

"Why did you come to Misaki? What price did Aozaki orange impress you? ”

"In order to ascend to heaven, I can't talk about the price, the reason why I will cooperate with Orange is just a little collector."

The young man's voice was not hidden at all, and his tone was very excited.

"After all, compared to collecting dolls, it is a more high-end thing to directly treat the world's highest puppet as a collectible, plus Orange is originally a beauty, as a reliable adult male, it is normal for me to be tempted."

"Do you know, because the puppet can make perfect changes to the subtleties of the body, coupled with the understanding of ergonomics, it will not only actively cooperate with you at critical times, but even sense your excitement and reach the top together.

The innocent witch was so frightened by such a bold statement that she took a step back and brushed her hot cheeks.

Then, as if remembering something, Yuzhu of Kuyuan Temple looked at the cohabitant in the distance.

The day before yesterday, the other party said that when I went to eat alone at a sushi restaurant, I met an unlucky brother-in-law who was fascinated by oranges.

Now from this description, such an impression seems rather suspicious.

But Aoko Aosaki was in no mood to care about this, she frowned, staring at the voice in the shadows that was getting closer and closer, showing an unhappy expression.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Aozaki Aoko scolded sharply, because she was too excited, when she dodged the puppet's flying arm sideways, she didn't return the magic bullet, but directly held the arm, and directly ripped it off the puppet's body in a rough way, and broke it in her hand in resentment.

At this time, the figure on the riverbank also stepped out of the shadows and revealed its full appearance.

With a slender figure, a front-facing face that is more than enough to be a model, slightly disheveled black hair, and a red trench coat similar to the color of the pupils, with a kind of alienation and nobility that is incompatible with modern times.

"Didn't you hear clearly?"

Although standing opposite the pearl of Kuyuan Temple, Roland set his eyes on Aoko Aosaki, who directly held the remains of the puppet in his hand because of his appearance.

"Then I'll say it again, although I hate to repeat meaningless words, but who made you my sister-in-law?"

Roland summed up his point and restated the subject in shorter words.

He lowered his tone, restrained the arrogance in his previous words, and made it more gentle, but even so, perhaps because the curvature of the corners of his mouth was too obvious, and against the backdrop of that evil smile, it only made people feel more sarcastic.

"Aoko Aosaki, your sister's taste is really good."
