I loaded the dream game

…By the way, did she not bring any change of clothes?

Looking at the girl's back disappearing behind the bathroom door, Xia Zhi suddenly realized something.

As expected, let Ju Ya follow her.

……

After taking a shower and returning to his room, Xia Zhi looked at the messy bed made by Qin Li and felt a headache.

...Forget it, I'm going to bed soon anyway, so I won't clean up.

He thought to himself, sat on his bed, breathed a sigh of relief, and recalled what happened today.

Let’s not talk about Ju Ya for now. She has already told me her thoughts without any concealment.

As for Tokisaki Kurumi, although her arrival was a little unexpected to Xia Zhi, other than that, she behaved very well for the whole day, making people feel that she was just an ordinary transfer student who was a little prettier, as if she really just came to experience campus life.

But that's true. According to 840 herself, she can't use "Angels" in this world and she is just an ordinary person in terms of strength. Even if she wants to do something special, she can't, right?

As for her real thoughts, I'll ask her directly when I get the chance.

Xia Zhi thought about it, and his eyes fell on the schoolbag beside the desk that had not been moved at all.

…As the saying goes, hard work after tomorrow is important, so just take a rest today and tomorrow.

Just as he was thinking this, turning off the lights and returning to bed to prepare for sleep, he heard a gentle knock on the door.

It’s so late, who would come to see me?

...Well, it seems like there are quite a lot of candidates.

Xia Zhi shook his head, walked forward and opened the door, but an unexpected figure appeared in front of him.

"that……"

The blue-haired girl, wearing only a thin nightgown, stood at the door holding a pillow, avoiding his eyes, her delicate face slightly flushed, and asked in a low voice:

"May I come inside?"

.......

Chapter 1323 The Most Important Oath (Two Chapters in One)

On a quiet night, the girl stood lightly at the door of the room in her white pajamas.

The moonlight outside the window shines through the gauze curtains, making the entire room dreamy and creating a mysterious and peaceful atmosphere.

The white moonlight just reflected on her, illuminating her thin figure and falling on her velvet blue hair, flashing a soft light like fluorescent light.

After saying this, her nervousness could be seen from the flickering look in her clear and bright eyes and her two white and tender feet rubbing against each other uneasily.

Looking at the uneasy girl in front of him, Xia Zhi no longer had the idea of ​​teasing her, and slightly stepped aside to make way.

"You came to see me so late, is there something on your mind?"

As he was speaking, he was about to reach out to press the switch, but the girl grabbed his wrist.

"Don't... turn on the light," Shion lowered her head and requested in a low voice.

Xia Zhi looked at her doubtfully, and the girl avoided his gaze.

...Well, at least I can see her clearly in the moonlight.

Xia Zhi probably can understand that when you are nervous, an environment like this where you can't see the cheeks and expressions clearly will make you feel safer, even if it is just psychological comfort.

But, does she have something special to say that requires her to be so nervous when facing herself?

Xia Zhi asked her to sit down on her bed, took out a bottle of milk drink from the snack box, opened it and handed it to her.

Just like she did when she was first invited home, Yoshino thanked him and took the drink, trying to take a small sip.

Xia Zhi also got himself a bottle of juice and sat down next to her.

Feeling the slight vibration of the bed as he sat down, Yoshino's body trembled slightly. She held the drink in both hands, rubbing the bottle lightly with her fingertips, and looked down at her toes without saying a word. It was unclear whether she was organizing her words or simply couldn't think of what to say.

If you don't say anything like this, I don't know what you want to say. Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

Could it be that, like Kotori, she watched a horror video or had a nightmare and couldn't sleep?

"If you want, Yoshino, I can sleep with you tonight." He said jokingly to ease the atmosphere.

"Um……"

However, what he didn't expect was that the girl nodded slightly and responded in an imperceptible voice.

Eh?

Xia Zhi was slightly stunned.

"That's... something lovers would do, right?"

With her cheeks flushed with shyness, Yoshino lowered her head and whispered

"Ms. Ju Ya mentioned the relevant knowledge to me..."

"..."

Ju Ya, what did you teach her?

Xia Zhi began to consider in his mind the correctness of letting Maria and Yoshino live together.

"Natsuki, have you ever done something like that with Miss Kotori?" Yoshino raised her head, looked at him and asked.

Is there any...

If you mean simply sleeping together, then yes, it does happen. But if it is "sleeping" between lovers, then that is another matter.

"Probably... not." Xia Zhi answered uncertainly.

The girl was visibly relieved when she heard his answer.

But soon, as if afraid that her reaction would cause misunderstanding, Yoshino hurriedly explained:

"Well, I'm not against your relationship with Ms. Kotori..."

"It's normal to object." Xia Zhi interrupted her, lowered his head and looked into her eyes and said, "After all, Yoshino is my lover now."

Hearing his straightforward words, Yoshino couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed, and her already rosy cheeks turned even redder.

"But, I didn't object to Miss Maruna and Miss Origami at that time... and I was also a latecomer between you and Miss Kotori..." the girl said in a low voice.

This kind of thing isn't calculated this way...wait?

Xia Zhi recalled the absent-minded look of the girl at night and asked with some doubt:

"You haven't been thinking about these things all night, have you?"

"..." Shiono blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment.

It seems that what he said came true, Xia Zhi thought.

This is really...

However, it is understandable, after all, I have seen such things.

"Ju Ya said that it's natural for lovers to do that kind of thing...it's more like a normal need..."

The girl's soft whisper came to my ears

Shiono looked at him again, hugged the pillow tightly in her arms, and asked shyly with a blushing face: "Xiazhi, you want to do that to me too, right?"

this……

Xia Zhi was about to answer, but hesitated for a moment.

It feels a little weird to say what I think at this time.

But if I say I don't want to, will she feel that I am denying her charm as her lover?

...I should find some time to teach Ju Ya a lesson, he thought to himself.

"Yes, after all, Yoshino is so cute."

Xia Zhi sighed slightly and admitted it. It was indeed the truth.

After thinking about it, he curiously threw the question back: "What does Yoshino think?"

“Me… too.”

Shiono lowered her head and said timidly, "I usually want to get close to Xia Zhi, but I'm a little embarrassed..."

So this is ah.

Xia Zhi smiled lightly, gently picked her up and put her in his arms

Yoshino's face turned red again.

Although she was very shy, the girl had no intention of struggling to break free. She shrank her body and just lay quietly in his arms.

"If you have anything you want to say in the future, just tell me directly, Yoshino."

It is impossible for people to completely communicate with each other, which is why it is even more important to use words to express what is in your heart.

"If you're embarrassed, you can tell me secretly." Xia Zhi said as he touched her soft long hair.

"Really...is it okay?" the girl asked softly.

"Okay." He nodded affirmatively.

"That……"

Shion turned her head and stared at him with her clear blue eyes. She pursed her lips slightly nervously, took a deep breath, and gently closed her eyes.

Just when Xia Zhi was wondering what she was going to do, she suddenly felt a familiar feeling coming, and then she saw a faint blue light suddenly appear in the dim room.

Under his surprised gaze, the node representing the fourth sequence on the back of his hand lit up.

The power from the fourth spirit, which he had temporarily retained, returned to him again.

Xia Zhi could feel that, just like the previous times, he had established some kind of invisible connection with the petite elf girl in front of him, which went deep into the essence of existence.

"So, this is the feeling..."

Shiono murmured softly,

"Shiono?" Xia Zhi called her in confusion.

"In this way, I will never leave Xia Zhi's side, right?" Shion came back to her senses, placed a hand gently on her chest, looked at him and said this.

Although that's the case...but why did she suddenly think of this?

The girl's action was so sudden that Xia Zhi was a little slow to react.

"Actually, I've always known about Yoshino." Yoshino said softly to herself.

It was only then that Xia Zhi noticed that there was a strange white rabbit hand puppet hidden under the pillow in the girl's arms.

Yes, Shion would always take her with her wherever she went, and now was no exception.

Looking at the rabbit puppet lying quietly in the girl's hands without any life, Xia Zhi recalled that he had promised to help her "cure" Shiona, but until now he has not been able to fulfill this promise.

According to his original thoughts, the girl who was no longer afraid of his own power should have resolved this knot long ago and allowed Shiona to wake up.

Although I don't quite understand the reason, no matter what, it was me who failed to do it...

“…I’m sorry, Yoshino.” He sighed softly, stroked the girl’s hair in his arms, and apologized to her.

"No, it's not Mr. Xiazhi's fault..." Shiono shook her head, "It's me, my own fault."

It wasn't a comfort, as she just said, she actually knew.

This was the longest time she and Yoshina had been "separated" since she could remember... No, it would be more accurate to say that they had never been separated before.

But apart from the initial panic and worry, she never felt that fear and anxiety again in her life after that. Even without Shiona by her side, she can still live a good life every day, which was unimaginable for her before she separated from Shiona.

Yoshino knew that it was not because she was strong enough at the time, but... someone had become her new pillar of support.

Feeling the warmth coming from the boy's arms, Yoshino gently closed her eyes.

...She wants to "cure" Yoshina, which is the most important thing for her.

But at some point, her thoughts quietly changed a little... It wasn't that her original thoughts changed, but that there was something more in her heart.

It was probably the moment when she realized that Xia Zhi was equally important to her. At that time, she suddenly thought of something.

Even Yoshina might leave me, so...what about Xiazhi?
