Chapter 261: Girls Talk (Finale)
It may seem strange to bring up this topic suddenly, but have you ever heard of a creature called a vampire?
They appear and make cameos as classic interracial characters in various pop cultures, with a variety of characters ranging from batalists with hideous faces to little girls who love to eat donuts.
But as is customary, these guys often have the commonality of "having super vitality".
In other words, "vampires" are like water bears, and they may be able to survive tenaciously even in the harsh environment of the cosmic vacuum...... They're really strong!
So, let's think about it the other way around.
What if there is a scene that makes almost unkillable vampires tremble and think "this is going to be the end"?
It must be, a demonic realm that is even more terrifying than the leaked nuclear reactor, and it must be a desperate situation in the true sense of the word.
β¦β¦ You say that such an environment cannot exist on Earth?
exists.
It's in this ordinary small room that used to be used to store miscellaneous items, but now it is used for club activities.
Arisa slammed her head on the table in front of her, soking up from her fantasies.
What used to be a place of laughter and laughter is now a deathly silence - the two sources of this situation are sitting opposite each other, releasing a powerful sense of oppression around them.
Ever since the catastrophe that she arbitrarily named the hospital rampage, the atmosphere between the two of them has become like this - while she can understand it, it has gone too far to get to the point of Mortal Kombat.
What's even more excessive is to ignore whether there are innocent vampires around you who may be injured by mistake.
Shiratori Maoi, who was sitting face to face with her, also seemed to feel the tense atmosphere on the field, and it was rare that she didn't open her laptop to work, but sat down obediently and seriously, putting her hands on her knees like an honor student who was listening carefully to the class.
But at the thought of this person who had slipped away on his own in the last conflict and left her alone, Arisa couldn't help but cast a resentful look.
Probably unable to stand the guilt caused by being stared at by her, Shiratori Maki stood up and reached for the electric kettle: "I brought a tea bag, do you want to try it?" β
"Okay."
"Don't."
Two diametrically opposed responses rang out at the same time, like positive and negative poles approaching each other, triggering an invisible spark of electricity.
The outstretched hand froze in mid-air, but the chain reaction was as inexorable as a lit firecracker, upsetting the delicate balance that had just been achieved in the silence.
As if by coincidence, Hoshikawa Aoi and Rinko Hori, who had raised different opinions at the same moment, could no longer pretend to ignore each other's existence, and their eyes collided with each other like trainers who would trigger a battle against Bao Yume.
Arisa quietly moved to the window and picked up the contents of the locker to prepare for the rescue.
At this moment, the cozy activity room has turned into a purgatory full of powder kegs, and only one spark is needed to be physically sent to the sky!
ββ¦β¦ That's enough. β
The vampire girl looked in shock at the messenger of justice who dared to speak out at this time.
Mai Shiratori stood up and changed her outstretched hand to a posture of supporting the table, like a great hero in ancient mythology who single-handedly stopped the war between the two countries.
"How long are you two going to stay like this?"
While Airisa waited in fear for the situation to develop, Aoi Hoshikawa took the first step to disconnect her gaze from the other party.
"It's not my fault."
She pursed her lips and leaned back on the chair with a push on the table, "It's all because someone is too much." β
"It's the people who steal other people's things that are excessive."
"Huh?!"
The double-edged axe, which was enough to cover half of the tabletop, instantly rested on the girl's fair neck, as if it would cut through the skin and shed red blood in the next moment.
"Repeat, who stole whom?"
Hoshikawa Aoi gritted her teeth, "Hori-rin, I'm really blind, I didn't expect you to be so shameless...... Such a shameless stealing! β
"I was the one who came first, in other words, the 'preemptive acquisition' stipulated by the law, but Miss Witch's grades are so bad, it's normal that I haven't heard of it."
Hori Rin sneered at each other, and at the same time pressed the holy sword Falcion that emerged from his hand, "My sword is not at a disadvantage!" β
Since fighting her other self who went to another world and rising in rank, her confidence has swelled in inverse proportion to the growth of her future body.
Magical girls and the like, there's nothing to be afraid of!
"The person who said that said that ended up losing......
Arisa, who has studied history, whispered.
"Calm down, it took a long time to restore this place to its original state last time, but don't forget that everyone's things have been burned! Do you want to provoke a war again?! β
Shiratori Mao rebuked angrily.
The manga I put here was also in the ranks of the disaster, and Rinko Hori, who thought of the tragic situation at the time, closed her eyes in pain, and when she opened them again, she was already resolute: "Even so, I have a world I want to protect!" β
Hoshikawa Aoi sneered: "What do you think you can protect with your mind alone?" β
"Is it possible to use the lines of that robot animation set in this kind of place?!"
Because there are no more complaining people at the moment, Airisa is trying very hard to stop the stupid trio by herself.
"All in all, Xiao Wu and I have signed a contract to confirm the relationship between lovers, and the woman in the past should quickly flash aside."
"It's just you who have unilaterally determined it! Has Rin-sau's paranoia finally progressed from Secondary 2 to other fields? It's just a childhood sweetheart, and this relationship will naturally collapse in a few years. β
"The high school students who have only known each other for less than a year and become a couple are talking about the future without shame, which is really more resourceless than a brave man who went to challenge the demon king at the first level."
Guang Xuan covered his chest as if showing off, "Only a relationship built on the basis of a long enough time is strong, and Xiao Wu has already said that he will always be with me, right?" β
"You're so embarrassed to mention the promise you just got!"
Like two lionesses staring at each other in circles and grunting a threatening sound from their throats, they poured a large vat of gasoline on each other's already burning flames, raising the temperature of the activity room to the brink of an explosion.
There was a soft snap.
Shiratori Mao rolled the exercise book he found into a cylinder and slapped it on the table.
"I'm going to use my power as president to order you to sit down and have a good talkβincluding you, Arisa, coming back from the window!"
She was already halfway out, and she rolled back in embarrassment.
President's authority.
Although it is essentially a nominal identity, although everyone likes to disobey Shiratori's orders...... But she was rare to be serious for once, but she still let everyone sell a little face, and poured a bucket of cold water on the scene that was about to ignite.
Even if it was only temporary, the four girls still sat down at the negotiating table in the order of Hoshikawa Aoi and Airisa, Shiratori Mai and Hori Rinko, no, on the edge of the long table.
"Listen, although we may have had two or three people chatting with each other before."
When she said this, she glanced at Arisa, "But because they are divided into different classes, there has never been a conversation between four people like this, right?" β
Taking advantage of the moment when the atmosphere was temporarily relaxed, Shiratori Mayi slapped his hands and deliberately changed to a relaxed tone, "It's rare that Li Wujun didn't come over today, so let's have a women's talk meeting that only has us, that is, girls talk!" β
Hearing this word, Arisa hugged her head in stress and fell down in despair.
"Fourth ......"
Without delving into what the vampire girl was talking about, Aoi Hoshikawa crossed her arms and stared at the diagonal light that turned diagonally with her: "There's not much to say between me and the person who does something to someone else's boyfriend. β
"I'm the same.,I don't want to have any communication with a witch who uses someone else's childhood sweetheart as bait.γ
"It's a magical girl! And you wait a minute, there is no comparison between these two identities, right?! β
"It's true that childhood sweethearts are in a relationship that is above their girlfriends, and it's great to have this self-knowledge."
Faced with the light of strong words, Hoshikawa Aoi only felt that her blood pressure soared.
"How can there be such a fallacy? Anyway, if you really have an idea, why didn't you do anything in the first few years? β
Guang suffocated slightly, and said stiffly: "I have died of the weak one in the past." β
Seeing that the two were talking and were about to threaten to fight, Shiratori Mao hurriedly rounded the field: "Don't fight!" All in all, neither of you is willing to budge now, right? β
They all fell silent, seemingly acquiescing to her claims.
It's just that Hoshikawa Aoi suddenly turned his head, stared at the face of the girl who seemed to be in the mud, and asked calmly, "Is it really just the two of us?" β
Just as the boiling oil pan cooled down, hiding the heat under the tranquility of the surface, Shiratori felt as if he had been burned.
Inexplicably, she was a little annoyed.
ββ¦β¦ What does Hoshikawa-san mean? β
"It's nothing, it's just that I remembered that I explained it last time, and the chairman of the Ferris wheel was also involved, right? What is the reason for that? And what happened when I went to the president's house before......"
She narrowed her eyes, "Does the president think I'm stupid, so I won't be found out?" β
In silence, Hikari looked up, collided with Arisa's gaze, and then moved away.
Although there were only two people talking, the waves set off overflowed between them and directly echoed in the hearts of the four people present.
"I've never felt that way."
Shiratori Mao smiled reluctantly and deliberately reread the next words, "So it's a four-person meeting." β
"Four-person talks......
Hoshikawa snorted, unable to hear what kind of emotion was contained.
"Actually, we're not just dealing with small interpersonal problems, right?"
Shiratori, who had regained his rhythm, continued, "The leader of the Guiyi Society who escaped is quite dangerous, and although I don't know what she is going to do, but so far, Arisa's father, I have gained superpowers, another light...... These things are all related to her, which means that everyone here has been involved in it. β
"Why do you say this all of a sudden?"
Hoshikawa Aoi couldn't help but ask, and Airisa took over her question.
"So in the face of a powerful and nowhere enemy, we should not fight among ourselves for the time being...... At least don't really fight. β
She nervously glanced at the other three, "I, I think that's what Mayi meant. β
"That is, before we defeat that guy named Lilith and the other me, do you want to conclude a peace agreement for the time being?"
Hikari summed up and looked at Hoshikawa Aoi, "I have no opinion. β
The magical girl scratched her long hair irritably, and suddenly stood up and aimed her magic wand at her.
"Why should I compromise with you?! Isn't it true that Rin-san Hori should do less things that shouldn't be done for the sake of the overall situation? It's weird! β
Hikari quietly looked at the white ball of light that could explode at any moment, and did not make any defenses.
If she had been hit head-on in this situation, she would have died.
Mai Shiratori clenched her fists, ready to save at any moment.
If you are unfortunate enough to be caught up in it...... Let's die together, this is the price that must be paid.
She smiled wryly and shook her head inwardly.
In the midst of the tension, Arisa suddenly pulled away from her friend next to her, blocking herself in the path of the attack of the fiery magic cannon.
ββ¦β¦ Get out of the way, Arisa. β
Almost word by word, Aoi Hoshikawa warned.
"I, I also think that Xiaoguang's approach is wrong!"
She shouted with her arms outstretched, her eyes closed, and as she pleased.
"Huh?"
The magical girl who was a little surprised paused, and Rinko Hori also pulled her clothes: "Let me do it myself......"
"Shut up!"
Arisa turned around and scolded angrily in a volume that had never been heard before, and even the light was captured by the girl's might at this moment, and let go of her hand.
"It's wrong, but I don't think there's anything she can do to restrain herself."
The weak girl resolutely took a step forward towards the muzzle full of devastating power, "Because I also have such feelings, I can make such a conclusion, and I believe that Hoshikawa-san can understand it as well." β
ββ¦β¦ Is it true that even you are? β
Hoshikawa Aoi was expressionless.
"Then, in reality, it is impossible for Li Wu to give up Xiaoguang, if you kill her here, the relationship that everyone has created in this year, and the experience they have spent together will be in vain."
Arisa folded her hands on her chest pleadingly, "I'm going to say that even if it's a brazen threat, please live in peace for the time being!" β
A second passed.
Then two seconds and three seconds, and the glow of Guillotan, who had been charged to the limit, gradually dimmed.
"What, I look like the final villain boss who needs to be persuaded by a cannon."
Hoshikawa Aoi put away her weapon, "I didn't really want to kill her. β
No, at least you must have wanted to get real about it.
Shiratori Maoi, who complained in his heart, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Airisa with a complicated expression on her face for the rest of her life.
In the end, the plan that he tried so hard to fail all the time felt like a big step forward by this harmless vampire.
The last time he was on the Ferris wheel, this guy also wanted to avoid conflicts.
"Maybe Arisa is the most indispensable of us."
She sighed.
"Huh? Am I being complimented? Hey, hey, hey......"
The other smiled shyly and sat back down.
"If you think about it carefully, it's actually Li Jun's fault."
Hoshikawa Aoi, who initially agreed to the peace agreement, vented her anger on the members of the community who were not present, and Hikari agreed.
"If Xiao Wu hadn't been so dull and confessed to me before he met the strange magical girl, so many things wouldn't have happened."
"Who's the weird magical girl?! And I'm saying that he should distance himself from you after the cultural festival, and it's better to quit this society! β
It's still arguing, but at least it's not going to be an emergency.
Arisa reassuringly picked up the tea that Shiratori had brewed, recalling the fantasy picture she had had seen at the beginning.
That's right...... Vampires are super strong, and even in such a dangerous scenario, they have survived tenaciously.
That's the story of how a vampire saved the world.
*
"Anyway, the president said before that we might have talked to each other in twos and threes, but in fact, I only talked to Arisa like this, can you honestly explain what kind of communication you have in private?"
Hoshikawa Aoi, who was holding a teacup, thought of something that he had overlooked.
"I've only talked to Xiao Ai before."
"I know she talked to youβthat's what I was told when I spoke to her."
The three of them were suddenly stunned, and their eyes focused on Arisa, who was frozen.
Correction, even if it's a vampire, it's probably going to be finished.
This is, the last girls talk.
