Gensokyo, I am a slime, everyone loves me

She lowered her eyes and murmured, "Regret? But I just need a little time."

Chapter 87: Shouldn't Have Confessed...

One year is too short.

For a Great Youkai who has lived for thousands of years, it's just a drop in the ocean, only able to sketch a faint line in her Youkai life.

Bai Luo did not go to Eientei as he was told, but walked alone on a small path in the Magic Forest.

The autumn wind blew coldly.

Dead branches and withered leaves fell one by one, gradually forming a path on the ground.

This place was deserted.

Even wild beasts were rarely seen.

Just as well, Bai Luo just wanted to be alone for a while.

"Great Sage, do you think I shouldn't have confessed?"

[ ...She did not refuse ]

The Great Sage said.

"But she didn't accept either, did she?"

This time, the Great Sage did not answer.

Sometimes, silence itself is a response.

He was feeling a bit down, but still forced a smile to comfort himself.

There aren't that many things that go as planned in this world.

Just meeting is already the best possible outcome.

But...

Is that really the case?

He was unwilling.

Bai Luo was still unwilling.

Clearly, clearly he couldn't see next year's snow, clearly he couldn't have a snowball fight with everyone, clearly he couldn't live anymore.

Why wouldn't he even give himself the last bit of happiness?

His tightly clenched fists showed faint blue veins.

Bai Luo took out a small blue and white notebook from his stomach pouch, which recorded his plans for this period.

"Tear—"

He tore off the pages with the plans written on them, then tore them into small pieces bit by bit.

Since he was rejected...

Then having plans is probably useless now.

As expected...

Love should be hidden in the snow.

He let out a self-mocking laugh.

Suddenly, he felt a few drops of cold touch on his face, and Bai Luo looked up—

It was raining.

The originally dark world became even dimmer, and even the sky was faintly drifting with continuous light rain.

The rain fell, seemingly tired.

Beside the Human Village, there is a very high mountain, from which you can almost see the entire view of Fantasy Land.

Human Village...

Happy Hut...

Even the distant Sunflower Field was in full view.

Bai Luo sat on the edge of the cliff with his knees hugged, quietly admiring the beautiful scenery before him.

Pale white moonlight spread over the mountaintop, and the spring breeze of the evening glow gently swept past.

The night in Fantasy Land was exceptionally charming.

It was no different from when he first saw it.

The moon hung high in the night sky, with countless stars, bright and dazzling, and occasionally a few meteors streaked across.

Everything around was silent, only the sound of his heart thumping could be heard.

Bai Luo felt as if he was in another world.

Like a gust of wind, taking nothing and leaving nothing.

An unspeakable sourness surged in his heart, he bit his lip, but grievance still filled his eyes.

Bai Luo buried his head between his knees, trying to hold back his tears, but found that the more he restrained himself, the more tears flowed, and his shoulders trembled uncontrollably.

He didn't want to cry.

He didn't want it to be like this.

But at this moment, he felt so wronged...

After a long time, his emotions gradually calmed down.

Bai Luo raised his face, the grievance had faded, his pupils showed a hint of confusion and blankness, he pursed his lips and called out:

"Great Sage."

[ I am here ]

...

Inside the gap.

Yakumo bit her lip tightly, trying her best to suppress the bitterness in her heart. Bai Luo's words and appearance just now were like needles deeply piercing her heart, impossible to pull out.

Many times, she almost lost control and wanted to rush out of the gap.

Blood trickled from her tightly clenched fists, but Yakumo Yukari was completely unaware.

Originally, she thought that according to Kazami Yuuka's personality.

Facing Bai Luo's feelings, she would accept directly, admit, or show her attitude. She didn't expect her to hesitate and choose silence.

But thinking about it carefully, it makes sense.

Kazami Yuuka's Youkai life has always been solitary.

When facing matters like feelings, she would be confused, not understand where her heart is heading, want to wait like before, and want to use time to see her own thoughts clearly.

Yakumo Yukari smiled mockingly.

However, she probably won't be able to wait until then.

After adjusting her emotions, Yakumo Yukari closed the gap, trying hard not to think about the scene just now.

There isn't much time left.

There's still a chance.

He won't die, and he can't die.

...

November 3rd.

Collapse value 97%

In his small courtyard, Bai Luo lay on a sun chair basking in the sun.

According to the Great Sage, there is at most one month left.

Until December, no...

It might not reach December, maybe by the end of November, the collapse value will reach one hundred percent.

These past few days.

Bai Luo has accepted the current situation.

Since it has already happened, why think so much about it?

Just smile and enjoy the remaining month properly.

Time passed day by day, as if nothing had happened, everything proceeded as usual...

November 4th.

November 6th.

November 10th.

Until November 20th, Bai Luo decided to do something.

"Great Sage, I remember you said that the great barrier is equivalent to advanced computation, right?"

[ Correct ]

The Great Sage said.

"Then I want to improve the great barrier of Fantasy Land, can it be done?"

[ As long as there is a certain amount of energy as support, it can be improved and enhanced, but based on the current energy and controlled information, it can only be enhanced by 10% ]

"10%? That's enough."

Bai Luo stood up and headed towards the direction of the Yakumo Residence.

Besides the Hakurei great barrier of the Hakurei Shrine, there is also a great barrier covering Fantasy Land.

This barrier is formed by Yakumo Yukari using the boundary between illusion and reality, combined with the arrangement of magic arrays.

To ensure safety, the center point of this barrier is in the Yakumo Residence.

Bai Luo returned to the Yakumo Residence.

He looked at the scene, which was familiar yet with a hint of strangeness, and a trace of daze couldn't help but flash in his eyes.

He searched around lightly, didn't find anyone, and then let out a sigh of relief.

Bai Luo came all the way to the front of the great barrier.

This is the support point of the great barrier.

Even space is prohibited here. Even if Kazami Yuuka wanted to come here, she would have to put in a lot of effort.

Only with permission.

Or by possessing a gap, can one enter and exit freely.

Bai Luo looked at the transparent barrier and curiously raised his hand to touch it.

The moment his fingertip touched it, the barrier rippled slightly like water.

Immediately after, the world before his eyes suddenly changed.

The surrounding scene quickly twisted and rotated.

After everything returned to calm, his gaze fell on the distance, and Bai Luo couldn't help but freeze in place. He had arrived in the modern world.

Traffic was bustling, and skyscrapers stood tall.

Crowds of people walked bustlingly among them.

[ Notification. This is the outside world, the world outside Fantasy Land ]

The Great Sage's prompting voice sounded in his mind.
