"Can't hear~" Xin Ke covered her ears with her hands like a child.
"I can release your virtual lock immediately."
".....real?"
"Well, although I'm very reluctant to be separated from my beloved teacher, but since you reject me so much, I can't force this teacher-student relationship."
"Really? Me too~ I'm really sorry to be separated from my beloved disciple, but there are times when children grow up and fly alone." Xin Ke, who showed a look of pity along with Luo Mo, played with him a little bit. .
But just after he finished speaking, he suddenly changed the topic and showed a cold expression:
"...And then? What's the matter with you? Are you serious this time?"
"Oh, why are you doing this, when it's supposed to be sensational, you doubt my integrity? What is this? Questioning my character?"
"When you lie, it's like breathing, which of course makes people doubt your character and everything you said before and now."
Xinke answered quickly without hesitation, which made Luo Mo feel a little unbearable... But after staying in this world for so long, he was used to such things.
"...It's nothing, I'm leaving, and Teresa has nowhere to go for the time being, but she doesn't speak much, so it's up to me to propose, I hope you can take care of her for a while."
"Huh?? Leave the umbrella to me and leave? You don't want to live anymore?"
"Don't make it sound like I'm weak... Although I want to say it, the reality is cruel."
"Ara? Do you also have a little self-knowledge about your own strength? In that case, you might as well let me kill you. It's okay, let's say it's a teacher-student game, and I'll arrange the most grand death for you!" With a warm and evil smile, Xin Ke slid his fingertips across his neck:
"If you miss, just say it, even the zeroth protection of the void can arrange it for you? It's definitely an honor to die in the grand fireworks that will hurt the gods, right?"
"No, I don't need to be so troublesome." Luo Mo repeatedly waved his rejection, the grand way to die, after thinking about it, he took out his dagger and handed it to her:
"If you are really resentful, it doesn't matter if I kill you once. After all, I do owe you a lot of favor, and... You have always wanted to kill me, right?"
"...Really? You won't hide?"
"Won't."
"Hey~ Then you're welcome?"
"Well, don't be too polite, just come."
He doesn't think it's a big deal to die once. If this can resolve the grievances and find a good place for the poor abandoned mechanical girl, he really feels that it doesn't matter if he die once.
Anyway, I owe others to others. If I don't die once, if this hatred is not vented, then he will not feel relieved when he gets angry with Teresa.
And if you die like this, you will repay the favors of the two. No matter how you calculate it, he has earned it... At least that's what he thinks.
.............
In the face of Luo Mo's rare sincerity, Xin Ke, who really wanted to give him three knives and six holes, was unable to determine whether he was just lying to himself.
But she had everything in her hands, so there was no need to think about it slowly. She smiled and clenched the dagger tightly, and stabbed him in the neck without saying a word.
"—?!"
Teresa in the distance witnessed this scene and took a step reflexively.
But the masonry that had just broken the ruins was about to rush over to stop it, but Luo Mo raised his hand to signal her not to move, and then the splash of liquid made the fair face of the fairy girl stained with the color of the sky.
".... Really don't hide?" Xin Ke, who stopped at a critical moment, twisted his bloody smile and became fierce:
"Do you think I won't kill you?"
"No, I don't think so at all. In other words, even if the trachea is fine but the artery has been punctured, it doesn't make much sense for you to stop now, right?"
Indifferently glanced at the blood that spewed out, and even he could see it, he spread his hands helplessly.
The blood flow of the aorta in the neck is very rich and the pressure in the blood vessels is high. It is very difficult to rescue in the hospital. There is no hope of being punctured outside, and it is useless to have a doctor.
"It's not good to treat something like this with magic."
"Nice idea, but I can't heal magic."
".....what??"
"Oh, it really doesn't work, how about you give me some treatment?"
He clutched the pierced artery, stretched out his hand and released the virtual lock, causing the golden chain on Xinke's body to automatically disintegrate and dissipate as golden light.
This made Xin Ke look at the waist that had regained freedom, and was stunned for a moment before looking at him with a dark smile:
"You have a good idea, but why should I treat you... The bitter meat scheme is useless for me. You are dead today."
"That's really a pity.... It doesn't count, but I'm a little dizzy now. You don't have to wait until today. Just wait a little bit."
Luo Mo's face was calm and calm, as if he was used to this kind of thing. Ling Xinke wiped the blood on his face and stared at the blood that kept pouring out of his fingers. He couldn't help but doubt:
"...You, don't you really want to die? Do you think this world is too hard to live and want to die?"
"No, no, I just don't have anything else to use as a bargaining chip. Now there are some sundries and life. You definitely don't want the sundries, so life..." Halfway through, Due to excessive blood loss, Luo Mo, who suddenly went black in front of his eyes, patted his head before continuing:
"Well, life... Maybe this kind of consumption is a kind of value? At least it's not a meaningless disappearance."
"You....really not beautiful at all."
"What do I want to be beautiful as a man?"
"Don't pretend to be stupid, I'm talking about your existence itself. A guy like you who has no sense of beauty, even if you kill it, there is no sense of happiness. Not only will it dirty my hands, but it will even fulfill you. If you want to apologize for the offense that you deserve to die, you can find me a place where I can't see and die."
Xin Ke's face was cold, and he moved his fingers slightly to recover some magic power, which easily restored the wound on his neck.
But without waiting for Luo Mo to say something, she simply turned around and ignored him, but left a cold mockery without looking back:
"...You are so boring, absolutely boring. I thought that with your talent, it might be so interesting to take revenge, but I didn't expect you to be inferior to a dirty gopher, and gophers will survive anyway— —You're not as good as a half-assed gopher!"
"...This is really too much to say. I am worthy of my teacher. Not only magic, but also speaking requires me to study hard."
Luo Mo, who was accustomed to her vicious tongue, just smiled, twisted the blood on the corner of his clothes at will, and simply sat on the ground, watching the forest spirit girl who was walking towards the mechanical girl.
The time together is neither long nor short.
But he also understands that as a Mori Essence, as a genius who is more beautiful and noble than anyone else, and more unattainable than anyone else, he is proud of himself but also has the strength of Xinke, and has his own unique aesthetics.
What she hates most is the half-assed person, especially the half-assed person like herself, who believes that the existence of the half-assed child is a multicellular organism lower than fungi.
But....he doesn't care what others think of him, everything is meaningless to him.
It may not take long for a mechanical girl to find the meaning of her life.
But here, in this world, his journey can be considered over.
Although it may appear here again in the future, the flow of time in each world is different. Who knows if it will be another thousand years later? And can you live to that time?
We will never see each other again, he thought.
Everyone must have a parting, and his journey is even more so. No matter who is just a passer-by in his life, it is meaningless to spend too much emotion on anything.
Knowing this very well, he didn't sigh or show sadness, just the mechanical girl who waved her hand three times with a smile and the forest spirit girl who never looked back.
Teresa, who seemed to be saying something by Xinke, moved her lips timidly, but did not make any sound, just like this, Xinke gradually moved away from this place, and disappeared abruptly in a space shift.
In his field of vision, it stretched to the other side of the horizon, leaving only the sky rendered bloody by death, and the black and gray earth that was piled up like snow, symbolizing death. This shattered scene has not changed from beginning to end.
The entire deserted city, the entire wilderness, in this world, he was the only one left once again, which made him feel alone and lonely.
"Well, is this the norm?"
Standing on the same ground, looking at the lifeless world outside the waste city, he was in a daze and muttered to himself.
In this way, after a while, his figure also disappeared into this world very abruptly.
.............
.............
The surrounding scenery has undergone earth-shaking changes again, but Luo Mo, who is already familiar with the space transfer, is no longer surprised by that kind of thing, just seriously looking at the new world in front of him.
The scene extending in the field of vision is completely different from the previous end world, full of vitality that has been difficult to see except for the waste capital in the past month.
The summer wind gently blows the green fields of wheat, and the mountains in the distance are also dyed with a charming golden light under the setting sun.
And where he is now, it is an ordinary field road, and the road is narrow and can barely allow two cars to meet.
Except for a school not far away, there are no buildings with more than four floors nearby. In order to better observe the surroundings, he climbed up in a hurry. The roof of the four-story school looked into the distance.
Not far from the bus station, there are several small country shops side by side, and a little further past, you can see the roofs of the residential area, but they are obviously low-rise old-time rural buildings.
But it is precisely because there is no hustle and bustle of the city, and there are vibrant relationships everywhere, which also makes him feel at ease physically and mentally and even feels that time is slowing down here.
"Not bad, as expected, peace is the best thing. I would also like to find a rural retirement home if I have the chance, but...is there really such a thing as peace?"
Taking a serious look at everything around him, he quickly concentrated on communicating with the system in his head that was parasitic in the core of the Ex-Machina.
"What's the mission this time? Destroy this village? Or what? It shouldn't be that simple..."
"—The mistake happened—this place is not the intended location." The familiar emotionless mechanical female voice came to mind:
"When the space transfer was carried out, the technique encountered strong interference. The third and fourth parties were in a state of battle, interfering with the space, and one of them intervened in the space transfer, pulling the final individual into this place. Please keep a low profile for the time being. Investigate the situation in this world."
"Third and fourth parties? What's the situation"
"It is expected that at least the existence of full control of space technology has not yet been identified."
The system informed the unclear reality, making Luo Mo's face bewildered.
He didn't quite understand that being able to fully master space technology should not be just an ordinary space transfer, but an existence that could interfere with cross-world travel.
And.... as if no one has seen it?
The surroundings were empty, and there was no way to see even a ghost, except for an old grandmother in a store in the distance, dozing off on a rocking chair outside the store.
"Forget it.... If you don't understand it, you don't want it. Let's find some normal food first, right? Well, no matter what the situation is, what you eat is the most important thing."
While speaking, he waved a little with his fingertips, causing an invisible wind blade to fly out, cutting through the barbed wire of the school's guardrail, nodding his head in satisfaction and jumping off the eaves.
After a little confirmation, he understood that although the energy here is not as abundant as the previous world, it is obviously more than the previous world. It should be a world with magic in the air.
To a certain extent, it also means that there should be magical forces in this world.
However, he landed firmly on the ground, and before he took a step, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a girl's cry in the girls' toilet of the school behind him.
".... Judging from the fact that there is still no one around at this time, the school should be closed at this time, and there will be no one there? Could it be.... This world does not have magic? It has -A ghost?!"
In the empty school as the sun sets, there are no students or teachers around. It is obvious that it has been a while since school was dismissed. Everyone has left the school, and there is no one on duty at night in this rural school.
But at this time, there was a girl crying sadly in the women's toilet, and 80% of what normal people can think of is only a ghost.
This made Luo Mo, who was actually still a little worried, what kind of existence would pull him over, and immediately put down the meaningless worry - and rushed to the toilet with great interest.
"—Excuse me~!"
"—Huh?...Ghost, ghost yah yah yah-!!!"
The girl's startling scream that almost pierced her eardrums resounded through the toilet in an instant.
.................
Although in general, it would be unwise to break into the women's toilet as a man, after all, it would cause social death.
But when it is confirmed that there is no one around, as a male, some people may be curious to run to see the internal structure... At least for adolescents, there may be that kind of curiosity.
Of course, Luo Mo has already passed puberty, and he has absolutely no interest in women's toilets. He is only interested in the old school girls' toilets.
There may have been fear of ghosts in the past, but now he wants to catch a ghost to play with, but...
As soon as he rushed to the women's toilet, he noticed that there was a young girl who looked around like a thief, with her wet head sticking out of the compartment and looking around.
Originally looking at the girl with disheveled hair, he thought the other party was a ghost... At least the costumes fit the image of ghosts in horror movies, and he even seriously thought about whether he should scream for meaning.
Who knew that when the other party looked over, he instead let out a shrill scream before him, and then immediately retracted the compartment and closed the door of the compartment.
"...This is the legend, do ghosts scream when they see it? I'm that scary?"
He stood blankly on the spot, always feeling that his lines were taken away by a ghost, and even let the ghost be a ghost, which was somewhat of a blow.
But he turned his head to look at the mirror on the sink next to him, and found that.... the other party seemed to be screaming for no reason.

(PS: The new volume is not the originally scheduled Attack on Titan, but "Yuna Yuna is the Hero", and it is still the content three hundred years ago when the fifth episode of the third season started.
Of course, I also understand after a little research, this popularity is quite sluggish.... Many people may not have seen it, it doesn't matter! I also read it on the recommendation of a friend in the book review area! It is very "cured" and everyone can go and see it.
Although as a fan author, you should choose popularity and find wealth passwords. This kind of fan is really not suitable, but... Originally, writing novels is a matter of interest. I didn't plan to serve the "public" and money, but chose to write what I want. Write, I am interested in, but I will try my best to write so that those who have not read the original can understand
