Azure Files, the starting point of all miracles

Nagisa: “…”

----

----

Quiet woods, clear stream, time seems to slow down in this peaceful moment.

Sitting around a warm bonfire, the girl and the boy were enjoying their special lunch.

However, compared to the latter's casual look, Nagisa's heart at the moment was not as calm as she appeared on the surface.

*Teacher... ate what I ate...

*This kind of thing...isn't it too embarrassing?

*But why doesn’t the teacher look nervous at all?

*Is this kind of thing very common in the adult world?

*Am I the only one who finds this weird?

Nagisa's eyes were filled with mosquito coil-like lines, which were constantly spinning.

Watching the teacher eat up the grilled fish he had eaten earlier bite by bite, Nagisa's inner thoughts began to develop in a strange direction.

*By the way, what flavor of toothpaste did I use when I rinsed my mouth this morning?

*Will the teacher find this taste strange?

*Or, will the teacher like this taste?

*——!

*What on earth am I thinking about!!!

After shaking his head to dispel the strange thoughts, Nagisa took a bite of the grilled fish in his hand.

Perhaps because the spicy grilled fish had left her with an indelible memory, Nagisa seemed a little cautious when eating the grilled fish.

However, when her tongue completely touched the fish meat, the girl quickly fell in love with the delicious taste.

*tasty……

*I have never eaten anything so delicious...

*In my impression, barbecue is usually heavy in oil and salt, or extremely dry...

*But this grilled fish...

The tender fish meat will burst out with sweet juice with a light bite.

The spices combined together not only did not overshadow the fish, but instead further highlighted the deliciousness of the fish itself.

And most importantly!

The smell is not as strong as I imagined.

It feels like the fragrance of the spring breeze, just like sipping a cup of fine green tea.

*It’s hard to imagine that food can be so great.

*Are the ingredients excellent?

*Or is it because of the teacher’s excellent cooking skills?

Inadvertently, Zhu glanced in the direction of Xiyu.

It was this one glance that gave her the answer to this question.

"Xiaozhu, how is it? Do you like it?"

"The perfect combination of spices and ingredients, coupled with the perfect heat, sir, your cooking skills are better than any chef I have ever seen."

"I have to say, I've even had the idea of ​​making you my personal chef~"

Perhaps because he decided to completely put down his mask in front of the teacher, Kirito Nagisa seemed much more casual than before when chatting with the teacher.

“It’s really quite flattering.”

"You are too modest, teacher."

Nagisa shook her head, then looked up at the sky as if she was sighing about something.

It was a common sight, but for some reason, she felt that the blue sky was even more beautiful than before.

"You are so gentle, and you are good at so many things..."

"I really don't know what your past was like..."

After saying this inadvertently, Nagisa came to her senses and shook her head in panic.

"Ahem, sorry, teacher, I didn't mean to--"

"It's okay. After all, I was planning to make my past public at the Thanksgiving Festival."

Xiyu shook his head and gave the girl a comforting look.

"Besides, I also said that, right?"

"I am your companion, Nagisa. If you want to know, I will tell you."

For you to see the real me.

At this moment, these words seemed to ring in Nagisa's ears.

"So, where should I start introducing you?"

"It would be a bit too long to start from the beginning. Would Xiaozhu feel impatient?"

"How about we just continue with the previous topic?"

"Uh~~~~"

Looking at the teacher who was thinking seriously, Nagisa pondered for a moment and couldn't help but smile.

*Teacher, you are such an inconvenient adult~

*But perhaps it is precisely because of this that someone like me can be redeemed.

*Thank you, teacher...

Chapter 182: Nagisa's Little Thoughts~

"Xiao Nagisa, please allow me to introduce myself to you——"

Xiyu made funny gestures while coming in front of Nagisa and bowed to her.

"My name is Mo Xiyu. I have served as the captain of the Hyperion, the fourteenth member of the Fire Chaser, the Doctor of Rhodes Island, the chief commander of the Sky Garden, the commander of the navy, the self-burning Cinder King, the hunter who hunts the ancient gods, the king of Elden who unifies everything, the demon hunter, the employee responsible for dealing with dangerous abnormalities, the adventurer who protects Arad, and the Tenno warrior who punishes evil (does evil) in the galaxy—"

Nagisa: “????”

As Zhu listened to Xiyu's series of titles, more and more question marks appeared in his head.

However, judging from Xiyu's expression, it was obviously not over yet.

"——The heir to the territory who beat up his ancestors, the black knight who protected the white witch, the chosen one who saved Rivellon, the warrior of light who fought against the end, the servant of the Holy Grail War who served as a Saver, the chosen child who traveled with Digimon, the God Eater who fought against the wild god, the special mercenary who fought against the biochemical crisis..."

As Xiyu spoke, she almost became confused and felt that she had not finished telling everything about the past.

Just like that, Nagisa listened to Xiyu reading the title for almost half an hour... and then ended this lengthy self-introduction.

"To sum up, these are the identities~"

Nagisa: “…”

Seeing the teacher's relaxed look, Nagisa's brows couldn't help but twitch at this moment.

"Some...?"

If Xiaozhu had a teacup in his hand right now, he would have probably shaken out all the tea in it.

Although there are many terms in it that Nagisa has never heard of or even cannot understand, she can still roughly feel the epic feeling from them.

In the end, the teacher just brushed it off so easily...

Nagisa thought truthfully, and the expression on her face seemed a little subtle for a moment.

I really don’t know whether to say he is big-hearted or what…

After covering his forehead and sighing, Nagisa felt helpless and uncontrollable curiosity in his heart.

As a teacher with such a rich past, Nagisa became more and more curious about his experiences.

"But... it's probably impossible to finish telling you everything..."

The girl raised her head to look at the sky and sighed with some regret.

The time is now two o'clock in the afternoon.

There are less than four hours left until dark.

It would be difficult to tell a story in this short time.

But - even though she felt regretful, Nagisa did not feel any disappointment.

Today, she has received enough from her teacher.

The hole in my heart has been filled and I am no longer alone.

If I continue to crave for more, I might be punished by God...

Zhu Ru thought so, stood up from the ground and walked towards Xiyu.

"teacher--"

"Nagisa?"

Looking at the girl who was hugging her, Xiyu blinked in confusion.

"Teacher, please don't move for now, okay?"

"I want... a little more..."

"..."

Listening to the sound gradually becoming lighter, Xiyu nodded gently.

"As long as Xiaozhu wants, it doesn't matter how long you hold me."

"I'll be here with you."

At the same time, in order to make her feel more at ease, Xiyu took the initiative to hug the girl.

Just like that, after a period of silence, Nagisa slowly withdrew from Xiyu's arms.

"Thank you, teacher."

"Let's go back~"

"Is this okay?"

"Ah."

With the corners of her mouth slightly raised, the girl revealed a peaceful and satisfied smile.

"I've gotten enough from the teacher today."

"If this continues, it will be a bit greedy~"

"Hehe, if it's Xiaozhu, it's totally fine~"

In this way, Xiyu sent the cheerful Nagisa back to Trinity and returned to Xialai herself.

As soon as he entered the office, the girl who came towards him caught him off guard.

"Teacher~ How was your date with Nagisa today?"
