Her deep blue eyes were filled with affection, and her cherry-colored pupils showed nothing but infatuation.
what……
us……
What on earth are they doing?!
This time, even Mistelin was left stunned, her gentleness seemingly frozen by the cold wind.
—Recalling their previous battles, Reimu, the three girls who had just started the fight looked at each other in mid-air, staring at each other with wide eyes.
……
……
……
……
"Honestly, as the Bishop of Destiny, I'm here in the cold wind... But it's not so bad."
In fact, there are plenty of places to stay temporarily if one wants to, and Otto's office is a place that no one but himself is qualified to enter.
The boy, who kept complaining, did nothing except ask Ling to get some snacks for Kiana to eat.
I don't know why Ling suddenly froze and hid in her spatial dimension, making it impossible for her to get anything else.
It doesn't really matter.
This is enough.
The streetlights dyed Kiana's silver hair a honey color. As she straddled Jiang Cheng's lap and bit into a strawberry-flavored Pocky, the crisp sound coincided perfectly with three snapping sounds high in the sky—just as the girl swept away the chocolate coating left between Jiang Cheng's lips and teeth, Mistelin's figure pierced through the clouds in the stratosphere.
"There's some icing on Xiaocheng's eyelashes," Kiana said, her voice slightly tipsy like sparkling wine. Her fingertips brushed across Jiangcheng's eyelids but deliberately brushed against his lip lines.
Perhaps it was because the sweetness was so intoxicating that even my thoughts started to become dizzy and unsteady.
The world began to spin, and the night became somewhat strange, but the boy in my eyes remained radiant.
She looked up to catch the falling raindrops, and suddenly a ring of dark clouds gathered in the once cloudless sky.
There was a faint glimmer of rain, a discovery that dampened the initial enthusiasm.
"Don't worry, watch me use Jizo's Soul to split the clouds."
Jiang Cheng's hand, which was supporting the girl's lower back, suddenly tightened. Kiana's gasp was swallowed by a deep kiss, and the sneakers she kicked off made a crisp echo under the bench.
As the silver threads separating the two reflected the iridescent light of the streetlamp—a purple thunderclap suddenly flashed across the horizon.
Jiangcheng, didn't you notice at all?
Ling's voice finally rang in my ears.
"what happened?"
The boy, engrossed in the deep kiss of being forced and coerced, didn't even have a spare hand.
I know you quite like this kind of thing. You're not usually very proactive, but you become proactive when you're forced to. But when you do this, have you carefully observed your surroundings? For example, are there people watching this scene?
"I'm not planning to do it with Kiana here, and I've already met her parents, so what's there to hide?"
The emotions in those cherry-colored eyes remained uninterrupted as they met the gaze of another pair whose haughty facade had been torn away, leaving only a soft, clear, and innocent look.
[—What if I said the person looking at me is Mei?]
……
……
……
……
Mei?
what……
Only after being so directly reminded did Jiang Cheng dazedly abandon the passionate kiss and look up at the thick clouds that had gathered at some unknown time—the physical qualities and energy perception of a Saint Mark Awakener could see through the layers of clouds and directly into the three highly active energy sources in mid-air.
"woo"
Just as Kiana's canine teeth bit into her earlobe, the streetlight suddenly emitted a mournful whistle of melting. The girl's minty breath still lingered around her neck, yet it had already sent shivers down her spine.
At any other time, his attention would have been completely focused on the girl, her soft lips carrying the sweet taste of strawberry milk, the crackling of electricity above his head seemingly insignificant. As her silvery-white hair brushed against the back of his hand, the boy suddenly felt as if the whole world was immersed in a jar of honey—until a chill ran down his spine, as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake.
"My ears are burning hot," the girl in my arms rubbed her reddened earlobe with her canine teeth, completely unaware of the lightning flashing in the clouds above. The arcs of electricity dancing in the cumulonimbus clouds were so perfectly regular, it was as if someone had measured the angles with a ruler...
My body, which was just warm a moment ago, suddenly turned icy cold, as if I had been hit by the Siberian winds, and my whole body, from head to toe, was frozen in place.
At this point in time, only a handful of people possess such immense power.
Mei, Sakura, Mistelin...
It’s over!
……
How can we survive? How can we face the three girls who have arrived under these circumstances?
Such thoughts have already taken over all thinking.
Kiana, nestled in his arms, was unaware that the passionate kiss had suddenly stopped. She gently pounded her chest with her small fist, thinking it was another instance of passive-aggressive behavior.
"Small town, bad!"
The girl with her pouting lips was as delicate as a peeled lychee.
There's no time or energy left to deal with it.
"send……"
"It's really over..."
This kind of thing was seen by three people at the same time...
The sound of his Adam's apple bobbing was like a bullet being chambered, and suddenly his mouth became extremely dry.
"Xiao Cheng's heartbeat..." Kiana's coquettish tone suddenly stopped, and she licked the strawberry jam off Jiang Cheng's lips in confusion, "Why is it suddenly as fast as a period when someone sneaks a piece of cake?"
"Don't...don't move..."
"what happened?"
Kiana looked up in confusion, her glacial blue eyes reflecting the boy's instantly pale face. She poked his stiff lips with her cream-stained fingertip—
"Could it be that you were frightened by my beauty?"
what……
The girl with the weakest strength and the weakest perception was completely unaware of just how dangerous the current situation was.
At this moment, the boy could only look up at the three figures, watching them become clearer and clearer, their outlines becoming increasingly clear and unforgettable.
He would rather face the siege of a hundred Ottos than stay in such an environment for even a second longer. The oppressive aura of the three figures in the clouds made the air thick and sticky.
Is it possible they didn't watch for that long? — Of course, that's impossible.
Just look at the extent of the accumulated thunder to know that.
How could they have just arrived?
……
……
……
"Don't worry."
As the dazzling and exquisitely luxurious lavender fell, Mistelin's crossed, snow-white legs cast afterimages in the moonlight.
She flicked her finger, shattering the thunderclouds that Raiden Mei had gathered, thus completing ahead of schedule what Jiang Cheng had previously declared: that he would cleave the clouds in two with a single strike. Her fingertips remained pressed together, maintaining the same natural posture she had adopted countless times before. As she bent over, her silver hair fell across her head, bringing a gentle, cool sensation.
"Can you take one with me?"
The girl remained as straightforward as ever.
Following closely behind was the equally shameless shrine maiden—Yae Sakura's shrine maiden robe brushed against Jiang Cheng's hair, the incense from the shrine mingling with the fishy smell of modern rain.
"My kissing skills are pretty good, and even if I can't breathe, I can last a very long time."
"what……"
Jiang Cheng looked completely bewildered, and the girl nimbly dodged his hand as he tried to cover Kiana's eyes—though it was just a casual gesture.
Now all eyes have been taken away.
no……
Should we blame them?
Even though the boy didn't know why he thought he would be blamed, he had no time to think anymore—that pure white figure had already walked up to him, forcing him to meet those trembling silver-purple eyes, which conveyed a literal sense of pity.
She sighed softly.
Sorrowful.
“I really… I really don’t know what your past was like. Why did you subconsciously take out loans? Why would you be scolded and reprimanded after doing something wrong? We are your lovers, people who love you. We should be holding you. We know better than anyone that you feel most guilty after doing something wrong.”
It's like accidentally breaking a bowl.
The first thing to do is to help the person up.
Then check your hands for any injuries or cuts from broken porcelain pieces, and then comfort the person who was frightened.
It's just a bowl anyway, so it doesn't matter if it breaks. What good will scolding do? Does scolding make the bowl grow back?
Must we blame important people, like our lovers, for something that can't be undone?
If we must become so ruthless and cold-hearted, like a machine that only knows the coldest way to respond, then what is the purpose of emotions? What is the purpose of family and lovers? Doesn't this make human social relationships seem meaningless and useless?
"Is there...is there any?"
Wondering.
Thinking about it.
Is there anything strange about something like this?
Didn't we all get a good scolding when we broke a bowl as kids?
Watching his fingers being gently lifted and placed against the girl's chest, meeting her gaze, and seeing the beautiful girl nod gently.
"Have."
……
……
……
……
"Stress response..."
Mei silently repeated this incredibly familiar word in her mind. Every word was clear and distinct, yet it felt strange and nauseating with each recitation, as if she were constantly ruminating on it.
I feel like vomiting.
An unbearable wave of nausea washed over my stomach.
"Wait... what are you doing right now? Is it necessary to act so serious when we meet?"
Kiana was so enraged that she straightened up and stood in front of the boy, blocking his view with her body—
This naturally straightforward girl could see the worry and fear in the boy's suddenly changed expression better than anyone else, and being in his arms gave her an unrestricted view.
Although this obstruction wasn't very effective for Mistelin, she didn't push her away like a stray dog, considering they would be spending time together in the future. Instead, she squeezed in a little space to stand in front of Jiang Cheng. Their previous eye contact changed again, becoming a more intimate posture—she gently leaned down, her forehead pressed against Jiang Cheng's, as if they wanted to share even their body heat.
……
……
……
Only those who have been caught in the rain know how cold the raindrops are and how terrible it feels to be soaked to the bone.
No wonder the boy was able to suppress his nausea, his disgust, and his fear of killing his own kind from the very beginning, and went to Qianyu Academy to kill, just to free himself from the constraints of his environment. It turns out... it turns out he was the one who left the deepest stress response.
