Stray Chapter 101: How could it be a peaceful day!
The realm mentioned later is too mysterious, and Yukinoshita can't remember much. Those occult terms are too obscure, and it is a field she has never been exposed to before...
The only thing I remember is that it is said that Yakumo Zi can move at will through those spatial cracks called "gap", not only in different physical spaces, but also in different dimensions make a move.
She can not only appear in any corner of the earth instantly, but also move around the world in paintings, dreams and stories. That is to say, if you paint a painting, she can also enter the world in the painting. Go to the world; you write a book, and she can also enter the world in the story...
This is a really scary thing.
If you think about it from such an angle, Xia Ran really has no choice but to ask this big monster for advice. This choice seems to be understandable.
Related to the roots, there is also a part to the form in which the ability manifests... These are some of the relevant factors that drive his determination.
"Okay, then you... take care of your own safety..." Yukinoshita sighed with a slightly worried expression, but did not persuade Xia Ran to give up this idea. She felt that since the other party made a decision, she would definitely It was a decision made after weighing the pros and cons, and he also had his own reasons.
As an outsider, she really doesn't seem to have any position to let Xia Ran give up the plan and live a peaceful life.
She herself is constantly working hard to learn and improve herself, and the person in front of her may also be in danger because she is involved in the mysterious field, and she can't not be motivated at all.
"There won't be any danger, I don't have a premonition, and since the last time we met, the big monster has never come to me at all, probably because he has no interest in me..."
Xia Ran doesn't think there is too much of a problem. There was no injustice in the past and no hatred in the recent past, so Yakumo Zi shouldn't have any unreasonable malice towards herself.
Well, there should be no injustice and no hatred. Although I subconsciously wanted to use her as an example before, isn't it a precipice? Therefore, there must be no problem, and Yakumo Zi should not suddenly appear behind her when she is writing at night, pressing her head on the keyboard and rolling around...
He had been wary for a while after the last meeting at Moriya Shrine, especially the last meaningful glance of the other party and the strange look at Yukinoshita, which made him feel uneasy.
But after being suspicious for so long, nothing happened, and if the other party really had any bad thoughts, they could just call at the door. Xia Ran, who has small arms and legs, can't do anything about it. Not to mention resistance.
It can only be said that she really has no interest. Perhaps before she left that day, the meaningful gaze and scrutiny was actually deliberate, and it was specially done to disturb Xia Ran's mentality, making him fearful and uneasy. On the nerves...
Probably just to vent her grievance about the fact that she personally invited her to be rejected one after another—
Forget the two ancient gods with extremely ancient qualifications, and even the fledgling boy doesn't give her face...
——This is not necessarily the truth, but Xia Ran thinks it is likely to be the case.
That's fine though, little slurs and pranks are better than pure horrific malice.
If it wasn't for Yakumo Zi who didn't do anything, it wasn't like many of the works he had seen. Some villains discovered a new rising star, and immediately tried their best to frantically suppress the persecution, and did their best to set up The sky is full of swords and arrows, and the rising star is terrified to threaten its own status...
Instead, like a salted fish, it seems that life is more leisurely than he is. Then Xia Ran would not have the thought of going to Gensokyo just once at this time.
"And wouldn't those two gods also travel together? They can also take care of each other..." Xia Ran waved his hand, and didn't think there would be any problems. reduced to a minimum.
Of course I wouldn't say there's no risk at all, but as a lost person, he does have that awareness.
"When are you going to leave? Today? Or tomorrow?"
"Let's talk about it tomorrow. I don't want to move much today. I'll go to Moriya Shrine tomorrow to discuss it with them. After that, I'll make an appointment to visit Gensokyo in the near future. I hope everything goes well..."
Xia Ran glanced at the sky outside the window. Although it was noon, he felt that he didn't want to do anything in the remaining time. Now he just wanted to spend the rest of the time in the service department slowly and leisurely. When the evening comes, I will go home slowly.
Because he always finds some more troublesome things now, it is best to do it immediately at the beginning of the day, or even force himself to do it. Otherwise, if he lingered lazily for a long time, he would never have any motivation to do troublesome things.
It's like this now, maybe it's due to his personality, or maybe... he is indeed moving in the direction of the "Longevity Seed", one of the details of the fact that some kind of transformation is naturally occurring, but He didn't even notice it himself.
Sounds a little inexplicable, but salted fish and lazy cancer are actually the main manifestations of the transition to "longevity"?
Actually, it is.
The difference between the short-lived species and the long-lived species is very big, but the most fundamental difference is the way of life, just like a giant dragon sleeps for hundreds of years, and a powerful practitioner is often counted in thousands of years of retreat...
There is also the salted fish reality of Yakumo Zi, and the two gods of Moriya Shrine who said that they and others would soon be unable to hold back, but in fact they were not so panicked, because maybe this "soon" The unit is calculated in a hundred years... These things can fully demonstrate the common ground of the long-lived——
About what kind of salted fish they are.
The perception of time is completely different, so don't expect them to pursue something so deliberately, racing against time as if they are being chased by something, running wildly in time...
As a lost person, Xia Ran is not at this level because he has regular tasks in the world that force him to reincarnate constantly, but as long as he enters the rest period, he will inevitably appear like this trend -
Although I have not seriously explored the issue of lifespan, nor have I studied my current physical attributes and spiritual attributes, how long can I support myself to live? Even after the physical decay, the soul can regenerate How long will it last.
However, some things are changing silently after all, such as he no longer cares about trivial matters, such as his perception of time begins to become abnormal...
This is just the beginning, so it doesn't look like procrastination is serious, at most it's just doing things today and tomorrow.
But if it continues like this, as his time becomes more and more abundant, there is no end in sight for the future, and the concept and perspective of looking at problems gradually become inhuman.
At that time, his "soon" will probably be calculated in hundred years as the basic unit.
It's just that neither he nor the other two girls are aware of the change. Artoria was just looking at the notes in her hand unconsciously. Although she didn't interrupt, she always pricked up her ears to listen carefully and digest some information about the world.
And Yukinoshita put her hand on her chin, as if she was thinking about something seriously. She didn't care about Xia Ran's laziness and procrastination. After a while, she seemed to have made a decision and nodded:
"Okay, then I'll go too!"
“…”
“…”
"Huh?" Xia Ran was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook his head, "No, no, this is absolutely no..."
"Why not?" The girl stared at him displeased.
"Anyway, it might be a little dangerous. If I bring you with me, I might not care..." Xia Ran shook her head like a rattle, and she couldn't agree to such a thing.
What kind of place Gensokyo is, he is not sure yet. What does it mean to bring Yukinoshita?
"What are you thinking about?" Yukinoshita frowned, "I just said that I would go to Moriya Shrine with you tomorrow, not that I would go to that Gensokyo with you later... I'm not like that. No self-knowledge."
"Eh? Then you said it earlier, I thought...forget it." Xia Ran breathed a sigh of relief, if that's the case, there's nothing wrong with it. "But don't you need to take the exam? There should be plans for tomorrow, right?"
“…”
“…”
"Then go back in the afternoon, anyway, I don't have anything to do." Xia Ran sighed, "I just hope that this time I won't run into your sister again, in that case, it will definitely be very troublesome..." /
"It won't be so unfortunate. It was purely coincidental before. Tomorrow is neither a weekend nor a holiday. She has no reason to go shopping..." Yukinoshita said calmly, and by the way, she characterized her meeting her sister as Unfortunate event.
"I can't say for sure. Yesterday wasn't a weekend or a holiday. I was still caught by her..." Xia Ran shook her head, "I think she's a twisted sister-in-law, when was she in your schoolbag? This kind of thing can be done with a locator..."
"..." Yukinoshita was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say, so she could only stare at him angrily.
She hates that this guy is always talking nonsense about this kind of thing at random, choreographing her relationship with her sister, which is obviously impossible, but always saying it so annoying.
"By the way, speaking of what happened yesterday..." Xia Ran suddenly remembered something, and continued to take out a few shopping bags like magic and put them on the table.
"What?"
"...Clothes?" Xia Ran hesitated for a moment, then said.
"For me?" The girl raised her eyebrows slightly and asked in surprise. "And why such an uncertain tone?"
"...Your sister's..." Xia Ran's eyes wandered, looking in an empty direction.
“…”
“…”
At this moment, the air in the activity room plummeted by at least ten degrees.
Saber on the side was almost jumped up by the sudden coldness, but when she realized the source of the ultra-low pressure, she stayed for a while——
At the same time, what appeared in her mind was the scene where Xia Ran stared at herself with a subtle look, and finally sighed and said that she was too sweet...
Wait, wait, that woman left her clothes behind, is it really a pit for her Master?
