Gensokyo, I, the slime, made them regret for the rest of their lives

"I'm leaving."

"Okay...be careful on the road. If you get into any danger, come back to me. I'll protect you!"

"Is there snow in Gensokyo in winter?"

"Have."

"Next winter, come with me to see the snow."

...

"Asan, I like you. It's the kind of love between lovers. I want to kiss and hug you."

"So, please be my girlfriend."

...

The memories of the past emerged one by one, and the promises made at the time flooded into her heart, and each word was like a sharp blade, cutting her.

"Crunch, crunch -"

The sound of birdsong brought her back from her memories.

Feng Jianyouxiang looked dazed.

It seemed as if everything that happened before was just empty, like a dream that eventually came to nothing, and like a snowflake that melted away in an instant.

This huge sense of gap was something she had never experienced before.

Whenever she thought of those dim eyes and the forced smile, Feng Jianyouxiang couldn't stop trembling.

"Obviously..."

"Obviously I was just thinking about waiting for a while before telling him the answer."

Her voice also began to tremble.

Emotions accumulated in my throat, feeling sore and bitter, and then rose to my eyes.

Why does this happen?

It shouldn't be like this.

She also wanted to watch the snow with the little guy, drink milk tea with the little guy, see the little guy happy, see the little guy acting coquettishly and begging for comfort, and also wanted to see the little guy looking pitiful and sulking.

She longed to see more and longed for him to always be by her side.

but,

Now all is gone.

There is nothing left...

She no longer saw him acting coquettishly or sulking, let alone a smile on his face.

She would never see him again.

"don't want..."

"pat-"

A drop of crystal liquid fell quietly to the ground.

A cold feeling spread across my face.

Feng Jianyouxiang slowly reached out her hand and touched her wet cheek. Her fingertips were stained with water droplets and her vision became blurred.

Come to the mirror.

The usually cold face was now covered with tears, which were sliding down one by one.

"Are you crying...that's nice."

Gensokyo: Chapter 98: Liar...

December 1st.

Two months have passed since Bai Luo last came to Hakurei Shrine.

Reimu already had some guesses in her mind.

She had noticed something as early as their last conversation.

My mother said the same thing at the time.

But in the end,

But he never came back.

Moreover, from one day on, her previous unknown connection with Bai Luo became weaker and weaker.

She guessed the answer until the day it broke.

Sure enough, when she arrived at the sunflower field, the Happy House was nowhere to be seen.

This made Reimu even more certain of her guess.

Return to the shrine.

Sitting on the sloping steps, she supported her head and stared at the sky in a daze.

A crack slowly opened up in the void, gradually widening until it was large enough for one person to pass through.

Yakumo Yukari walked over, sat next to Reimu, and asked softly:

"You should have guessed it."

"Ah."

Reimu responded.

After a long pause, she spoke, "Ever since then, I've felt that he's a lot like my mother. I also had a premonition that one day he'd disappear like my mother... And sure enough, I guessed it right."

She smiled as she said this, with a look of complete indifference deep in her eyes.

"You clearly promised me that you wouldn't leave, so why are you and your partner acting like this? This is too much..."

"It's too much."

"If you want to leave, just tell me in advance. What's the point of leaving without saying anything?"

"..."

Yakumo Yukari listened quietly.

She spoke slowly until Reimu had finished speaking everything.

"Little Bai Luo is indeed very similar to his predecessor. He has the same gentleness, the same stubbornness, and even his self-righteousness is exactly the same."

Having said that, Yakumo Yukari chuckled.

"Perhaps this is why they don't live long."

Reimu lowered her eyes and said nothing, tears flickering in her eyes.

After Yakumo Yukari left, Reimu still sat in the middle of the stairs, motionless.

Suddenly, as if realizing something, she looked up abruptly.

When I saw that familiar figure.

Her pupils dilated slightly, and her heart was filled with surprise and excitement, but when her eyes fell on the other person's face, her eyes couldn't help but dim.

Although they looked the same, Reimu knew that this was not him.

"Did he ask you to come to me?"

"Ah."

The Great Sage responded, walked over to her, and placed a slime pillow in her arms.

Almost at the same time.

A complex energy pattern rose from the pillow, enveloping Reimu.

Reimu was stunned, realizing that she had established a connection with the slime in her arms.

"It can withstand the damage caused by the great barrier for you. Even if Bai Luo is not here, it can support you for a hundred years."

The great sage narrated calmly.

Lingmeng hugged the pillow in a daze, her nose felt sore and unbearable, and tears almost burst out.

She bit her lip to prevent the tears from falling.

After a long while, she took a deep breath, tried to put on a bright smile, and nodded to the great sage.

"Thank you!"

"You are Welcome."

The great sage took out another string of candied haws, handed it over, and turned away without saying anything.

"Wait a minute."

Reimu suddenly called her, and after a moment of silence, she asked, "Is he really dead?"

The great sage paused slightly, but continued walking forward without looking back, simply replying with one word: "Yes."

After receiving a positive answer, Reimu trembled violently and hugged the slime tightly with her arms.

My head is buzzing.

After the noise stopped, the world became very quiet.

Only very few sounds were left.

The chirping of insects and birds, the rustling of wind through leaves, and the piercing buzzing in my ears...

It seems like it was prepared in advance.

Reimu quickly adjusted her mood, but her tightly bitten lips, trembling shoulders, and the way she held the slime tightly all revealed her restlessness at the moment.

...

"Guess who I am? There's a reward for guessing right~"

"Master Bai!"

"You guessed right. Since you haven't eaten yet, I'll reward you with a meal I made myself."

"Didn't I tell you not to eat rice soaked in tea all the time? It will cause your body to stunt its growth."

"How is that possible? I grew up eating ochazuke (tea porridge). Tonight, the kitchen just happened to have run out of food."

"Asan said you like candied haws, so I bought you two more. Hehe, what do you think? I'm good to you."

"Why are you so nice to me?"

"Because we are friends. If you don't mind, you can treat me as family, and..."

"And I just hope you can have candy even if you don't cry. When I was little, I cried many times, but I couldn't get candy. I don't know what love feels like."

...

Reimu couldn't help but tremble.

Memories emerged in my mind, and each memory was like a thin thorn piercing my heart.

Not obvious.

It can even be said to be fleeting.

But it was this subtle pain that spread wildly in my heart.

...

"Will you leave too?"

"I don't want to leave. Life here is so wonderful. I still have to overthrow Yakumo Yukari's rule and save you from this dire situation."

...

The stars that finally filled the night sky have now become just a few.

A cool breeze blew past.
