I loaded the dream game

"Mr. Xiazhi, you are still as good as ever in dealing with little girls." Tokisaki Kurumi exclaimed and sat down next to him.

"..."

If you say so, then that's it.

Xia Zhi is too lazy to defend himself

He thought about it briefly... Kotori, Yoshino, Maruna, Maria... If he counted carefully, it seemed that there were indeed more lolita girls around him recently...

...Ahem, I almost got myself confused.

Xia Zhi shook his head, threw the question aside, looked at the girl and asked, "Why haven't you gone home yet so late? Is there something on our Miss Kuang San's mind?"

"I just saw that I had some time after class, so I wanted to walk around."

Tokisaki Kurumi took the rice ball he handed over, unwrapped the plastic wrap and took a small bite.

The rice is soft and fragrant, the seaweed is crispy and salty, with a hint of meat and the sweetness of salad. Although simple, the taste is not monotonous at all. You can feel the girl's dedication when making this lunch box.

Are you not satisfied even to this extent?

Tokisaki Kurumi thought, raised his head and looked at the shadows of the bushes beside the road not far away, swaying gently under the street lights, and continued: "After all, hanging out after school like this is also a part of campus life."

I mean you live alone.

In my past, I would hang out outside instead of going home after school, but my parents would make up for my entire childhood. .........

Xia Zhi thought so in his heart.

"Just like what you said, Xia Zhi, I am just an ordinary person now." Tokisaki Kurumi looked at the sky above the distant city, the stars shining with the gorgeous lights, and said softly.

Without the power of the elves, far away from the threat of doomsday, there is no need to think about things that ordinary people don't need to worry about. You only need to focus on your daily life, the various trivial matters around you, the interpersonal relationships between friends, what lunch box to make tomorrow, where to go with friends after school, and many other insignificant things... Or in other words, the troubles of youth that should have nothing to do with you long ago.

She felt that she could probably understand why the boy still cherished every day of his life even though he had such power and was doing things like saving the world.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief and continued

"Thank you, Xia Zhi... These two days of campus life have made me feel like I've really returned to the days when I was in school."

Xia Zhi only felt that the girl's tone at this moment sounded as if she was lamenting that she was twenty years younger.

Is this why you acted like a little girl today and gave me all kinds of trouble?

Summer solstice complains in my heart

At the same time, he suddenly remembered that Maria had said before that Tokisaki Kurumi had specifically found her to help arrange admission.

At that time, he was still wondering what the girl's purpose was in doing this. Now from her words, it sounded like... Could it be that she just wanted to relive her past school life?

"Xiazhi, what do you think of this world?"

Tokisaki 5.2 Kurumi turned around and looked at him, and suddenly asked this.

Ask him what he thinks of this world... This is his world.

Xia Zhi thought.

However, if we simply ask him what he thinks of the current truncated time and space

He recalled what Rinne had said to him... Just enjoy this world...

Whether it is the encounter with the girls, the daily love life with them, or other small things in life...even if it is not obvious, this world has indeed been "favoring" me.

So

"Putting aside other factors and just talking about subjective feelings, it's pretty good," Xia Zhi replied.

As if she already knew the answer, the girl was not surprised. After taking a deep breath, she looked into his eyes and asked:

"So you... want it to end?"

.......

Chapter 1327 "You don't have to be strong for now"

What is happiness?

Delicious food, a healthy body, a happy family, and living happily with the person you love?

Just as meaning is always relative, everyone has their own different happiness.

Simply from the definition, so-called happiness is a long-lasting sense of satisfaction with one's current life and a stable mood of wanting to maintain the current state.

In other words, the pursuit and maintenance of the existing happy and beautiful life is determined by the nature of happiness itself. After anyone obtains his own happiness, his heart will tend to protect and preserve this happiness for a long time.

But happiness is never everything a person pursues. Sometimes it is not uncommon to give up the current happiness for something more important.

Life in this world is indeed wonderful, but there are still things that must be done in Xiazhi.

And

"If I don't end it, how can I save you?"

He turned around and looked at the girl and said.

Hearing his words, Tokisaki Kurumi was slightly stunned and stared at his profile in a daze.

"…Xiazhi, you really know how to please girls."

After a long silence, she pursed her lips, uttered a soft "huh", retracted her gaze to the stars in the night sky, smiled softly and said:

"If it were before, when I was just an ordinary person, I would have been easily conquered by you, right?"

"Aren't you just an ordinary person now?" Xia Zhi asked back.

"That's right." Tokisaki Kurumi tilted her head slightly to think about it, and asked with interest:

"Would you like to take this opportunity to confess your feelings to me? Who knows, maybe she has already reached the maximum level of affection for you, so it will be easy to succeed?"

"Forget it." Xia Zhi quickly refused.

It's not that he doesn't want to take the initiative and waste the opportunity given by others. It's just that he thinks that confession shouldn't be so casual... at least the first confession should be like this.

"I didn't expect that Xia Zhi is an unexpectedly traditional person." Tokisaki Kurumi sighed as if she had discovered something interesting.

This has nothing to do with tradition or not.

Xia Zhi complained in his heart and took out another rice ball and handed it to her.

"Miss Yoshino made this love rice ball especially for you. Can you really give it to me like this?"

She asked as she looked down at the rice ball that was stuffed into her hands.

"If you feel bad about it, you can give me some compensation."

Xia Zhi said nonchalantly, and opened a rice ball for himself and took a small bite.

Although Yoshino said she didn't have much confidence, it turned out to be surprisingly delicious in the end.

This is quite similar to Nanashi. I believe that if the two of them meet, they should get along well.

...Take the lunch box made by your girlfriend and go to other girls to ask for special "compensation"...Does your girlfriend at home know that you are doing this?

On the other side, Tokisaki Kurumi thought, and after thinking for a moment, he asked: "Then what 'compensation' do you want, Xiazhi classmate?"

She deliberately emphasized these two words.

Xia Zhi didn't pay much attention to it, and changed the subject and asked:

"Miss Kuang San, do you prefer staying in this world?"

The girl tilted her head slightly: "Why do you feel that way?"

"I just feel that you have become a little different since coming into this world." Xia Zhi replied.

I had this feeling since the first time I saw her after coming into this world. It was as if a heavy burden had been lifted off my shoulders, and I felt a lot more relaxed.

If he was still a little confused before, now he probably knows the reason.

Rather than saying that she likes this world, it is better to say that the original world brought her too much oppression.

Xia Zhi thought.

"You must be very tired."

He suddenly spoke.

Tokisaki Kurumi was stunned for a moment, then fell silent.

Looking at the silent elf girl beside him, Xia Zhi knew that his guess was probably correct. He turned around and looked at the bright night sky above his head that was dotted with stars.

Looking back, the time and space he had experienced along the way were not only the necessary path for him to save the world and the elves, but also the traces of the girl's past attempts to save the world.

Before she came into this world, she had been working hard to save this world.

The time traveler is lonely.

When I leave the familiar world and go to those unfamiliar past times and spaces, at least she is by my side.

But when she was traveling through timelines to save the world, she was alone.

She traveled to different timelines alone, witnessing the destruction of the world again and again. In the end, she did not truly save the world, and could even be said to have personally pushed those past timelines and the elves like her into an inevitable doomsday.

This kind of psychological pressure is not something that ordinary people can imagine, right?

But the girl endured it all alone and persisted to the end for a tiny hope that she didn't know whether it could be realized.

No matter how strong she was, before she became an elf, she was just an ordinary human girl.

So, it’s tiring, right?

"Even if it's just a special 'compensation' for me, it's only for tonight..."

Xia Zhi reached out his hand and gently lifted the girl's bangs, revealing the golden eyes hidden under her hair. He looked at her gorgeous heterochromatic eyes and said softly:

"You don't have to be strong in front of me."

"..."

Tokisaki Kurumi pursed her lips slightly

...Mr. Xia Zhi, you are so cunning.

She thought so in her heart.

.......

Chapter 1328 "Can you meow again?"

"call……"

Tokisaki Kurumi breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the starry sky above her head.

"...Do you know, Mr. Xia Zhi, when I opened my eyes at that time, I also saw such a beautiful starry sky."

Xia Zhi didn't say anything, waiting quietly for her next words.

"But it was not until later that I found out what kind of scene was behind that starry sky."

The girl continued to murmur, slowly telling Xia Zhi about her past in this world.

About how she came into this world and what she experienced afterwards

It is normal to feel wary, curious, and even confused when you first arrive in a strange world, right?

Xia Zhi could more or less imagine the girl's feelings at that time.

Among the elf girls he had met in the past, except Mio and Tohka who were pulled into this world at the beginning of their birth, the other girls had more or less wanted to return to their original world.

In this case, as a spirit that controls time, it is natural for Tokisaki Kurumi to want to try to use her own abilities.

But at that time she didn't realize that in this world where gods act recklessly, once the elves use their spiritual power, they will attract the attention of the gods.

"...Mr. Xia Zhi...Do you know the price of my using the "Angel"? "

Tokisaki Kurumi retracted her gaze, looked at him and suddenly changed the subject and asked.

Xia Zhi naturally knew that when the elves used their "angelic" abilities, they naturally had to pay corresponding spiritual power.

But unlike other elves, as an elf that controls time, the price Tokisaki Kurumi needs to pay for using her own "Angel" is not only spiritual power, but also... time.

"Then, aren't you curious about where the "time" I need to travel through hundreds of years to create a space-time barrier that spans the timeline comes from?"

The girl then asked.
