Reincarnation Band Magician

Brave: 301. I won’t go back to school.

Accidentally charmed by the cucumber, the next bumpy collision brought Qing back to his senses in time.

"Boom!"

In coordination with the attacks of the strange bird monsters, Qing focused on reinforcing the shell. These stupid birds were not giving up yet, spitting wind blades, scratching, and hitting.

Magical attacks pose some threat to the crystal. If the crystal ball disintegrates in mid-air... the three of them won't be out, but they will be in a lot of trouble. The wind in the valley is too strong, and if they use flying magic, they will become kites in the wind, and they won't be able to control where they fly.

The crystal ball hit the rock wall and continued to slow down.

After getting familiar with the collision, Qing started to use magic buffering every time. Visually, the crystal ball they were in seemed to have elasticity, and would "bounce" upwards every time it was hit, just like the bouncy ball that many people played with in their childhood.

At the 18th second of falling, Miss Xiangzi adapted to the current situation.

It can be seen that the companions are having fun and making the children happy.

She reminded loudly: "It's almost at the bottom, clear!"

"Understood. Just to be safe, hold on tight!"

Qing meant that the three of them should hug each other, but as soon as he finished speaking, Miss Cucumber, whose cheeks turned slightly red, hugged him tightly, not knowing whether she was scared or excited.

Miss Xiangzi was about to ask, "Where are you holding, and where is she holding?"

“Saki——”

Xiao Mu reached out and held her hand, pulling it towards him with force. Xiangzi had no choice but to hug them both.

At this point, the journey of the "crystal ball" has also come to an end.

When Qing could see the stream and the hideous monsters inside, horns grew on his head and he output magic power in reverse to release levitation magic.

"boom!"

……

There is now another place to store water in the stream.

At the last moment, five or six monsters jumped out and wanted to devour them. Thanks to these people, they helped to buffer the situation to some extent.

"Well……"

Miss Xiangzi was on the shore, twisting the water off her skirt. She looked very unhappy. If she hadn't been restrained by her upbringing as a young lady, she would probably have vomited.

The other one was much more lively.

"Isn't this super exciting? Qing, super awesome!"

That seemed to be all the little Mukua's vocabulary held, but the point was made.

Qing nodded reservedly, "I'm afraid I'll scare you. If I were alone, I could try slowing down at the end."

But it is very dangerous. Don't try it if you don't have the perseverance and physique of a warrior.

So even though Little Cucumber grabbed his sleeves and begged, Qing remained unmoved. He just touched her hair and comforted her, saying, "There will be other interesting things later. It's not just this kind of simple excitement that's fun. I will accompany Xiaomu."

"Don't do something this dangerous next time! You can't even clear one person, Damai!"

Ms. Toyokawa crossed her index fingers and made an "X" sign, indicating that she would never allow her lover and friends to do anything unethical.

Qing nodded perfunctorily, thinking that this was the magician's caution.

A warrior can't be like this.

but--

"It was indeed too noisy," Qing drew out his two swords and tapped them lightly, "The monster discovered us."

The environment at the bottom of the valley is humid and food is abundant, so there are usually many predators in such places.

But not enough to threaten them, just some growing little guys.

The real behemoths are attracted by the sweet blood in the distance and rarely stop along the way.

Eating and killing are both instincts of monsters, and at the estuary, they can enjoy both.

After a while.

He was poisoned by an unknown demon and his clothes were destroyed.

After washing in water for a long time and changing the place, a bunch of small fish will still float up in the water.

After this happened more than ten times, Miss Xiangzi had to use detoxification magic to barely dispel the poison.

"Are you really not feeling unwell?"

"At this level, you can overcome it with perseverance."

Miss Mu squatted by the shallows, picked up a beautiful stone, washed it and showed it to Xiangzi. After a while, she picked up two or three more, and she liked all of them very much.

Qing handed her a small bag and said, "Use this to store it."

"Well, thank you, Qing."

After that, we had to find a place to climb up. Qing had joked before that we should just run along the current to the estuary and get down from the plateau as quickly as possible.

This is a joke. Downstream, the river is hundreds of meters deep, and the turbulent water can smash rocks. It's possible to swim alone, but it's better to have companions.

Miss Fengchuan was also very pleased that her companion gave up the idea. Qing was steady most of the time, but occasionally he would have such weird ideas. Now the other Xiao Mu would follow suit.

On the way back, Xiao Mu played with stones quietly, and from time to time asked the common language names of some things to satisfy his curiosity.

……

The place where we will camp tonight is on a cliff one thousand meters high.

I don’t know how the monsters made their nest here before, but now it has been requisitioned by three people.

The red lotus fire magic learned from Fulilian purified the inside completely.

Miss Su Shi brought the goddess' answer, which was naturally permission, and at the same time said that she would criticize Xiao Mu later.

Qing found an opportunity to chat with her alone for a while and asked her to ask the goddess about some questions he had.

Hongxia and Liang were very interested in the scenery of the Grand Canyon.

When they reached Yili, Qingzheng carried the two ladies and flew upwards. Pochi-chan looked down and fainted.

"It's another lively day, but it's a pity that I can't enter their spiritual world."

Qing poked Wakaba Mu's face, trying to wake Pochi up, but Xiaoxiang slapped him away and glared at him.

What are you doing to other girls?

Qing sat down. Dinner was prepared at noon, so there was nothing to do.

He took out his radar and put it aside. After thinking for a while about his words, he said to Xiangzi, "She doesn't seem to want to go back."

"what?"

Xiangzi sat up straight and pursed his lips. "No wonder you're learning the common language... This won't do. Qing, were you asking Su Shi to ask Eris about this?"

She was not as emotionally sensitive as Qing, especially with Xiao Mu in his current state, she was only familiar with one of the five people.

"Well," Qing flipped through the radar and looked at Xiangzi with a somewhat uneasy attitude, "it's something else."

"what's up?"

"Ask Eris and the others if this situation can last long. Are there any magic or abilities that can improve it..."

Xiang looked into his lover's eyes in confusion, "What does this mean?"

"I want to know if there is any possibility for Xiaomu to stay here and live."

"Qing, you——"

Xiangzi couldn't understand. She sat down and chose to understand, "Is there something I don't know?"

Qing looked at the drowsy Ruoye Mu and said, "Xiang should understand this child better. My judgment is that she needs a new life to resolve the current psychological pressure. New social relationships, hobbies, and living habits... That's what I think."

"Xiao Mu," Miss Fengchuan began to think, "After we go back, we can hire a psychologist, and we can discuss it with Aunt Minami and Uncle Wakaba..."

"Living here is the simplest and most ideal form of treatment, I think so."

Qing expressed his thoughts sincerely.

"This world is very dangerous, but for Xiao Mu, she has already died once in another world. Which world is worse?

“Some decisions may seem best to us, but not to the person involved, like you.

"I heard about your situation from my uncle. Why didn't you return to the Toyokawa family at that time? You don't have to suffer at home. If you work hard to learn management, you will have a greater chance of helping your uncle make a comeback in the future.

"But Xiang still ran out holding the doll that his aunt gave him. He worked so hard. Does Xiang regret it now?"

Toyokawa Shoko was touched by his words and shook her head, "No, I haven't regretted it for a moment."

"..."

Qing didn't quite believe it, but he didn't expose his girlfriend's little love for face.

"That's it, Xiang. Actually, we're already 21 years old, not in junior high school anymore. Looking back now, it might be like an adult looking at a child. Sometimes, people can't even understand their past selves, so I guess Xiang must have thought that Xiaomu's current behavior is just childish and willful."

[That’s true. I used to think so.]

She thought about it.

When she was at her lowest point in life, the pressure from work, family and band made her feel suffocated. She admitted that she was pathological at that time.

Every time she saw Xiao Mu dressed exquisitely, she couldn't help but wonder, she had never suffered any hardship, so why did she have that expression all day long?

I've thought about something so excessive.

——It’s all because of work.

In fact, if she took a step back at that time, she could go back to the past, but there was no way out.

Xiao Mu is the same. She seems to have a happy life, but in fact she has no choice.

"Don't become like an adult, Xiang. The first step for bad adults is to sanctify their own suffering, unable to empathize or even belittle the suffering of others, and to treat everything they haven't experienced as mere whining."

Qing said this and placed the radar next to Wakaba Mu's face.

"The one who ultimately decides this matter is Goddess Eris. Whether Xiaomu can stay depends on whether she can convince the other party. They may already be communicating now.

"Eris may appear careless, clumsy, and inexperienced, but I think these are likely accidental oversights. She's actually a goddess with a clear mind and a clear mind. She's a gentle and conscientious goddess. She must have guided many lost souls and seen people of all ages die from various kinds of suffering. She knows the kinds of pain that can hurt people. Her judgment is much more accurate than mine."

[That's too much praise.]

Xiangzi suppressed his inappropriate sourness, looked at Xiaomu's frown in his sleep, and reached out to smooth it out.

Indeed, time has stopped, and the next time she goes back she will be able to meet Xiao Mu.

But in that world, with the same lifestyle as before, will the Xiao Mu she knew wake up again?

Xiangzi felt terrified and couldn't help shivering.

Her best friend, who is now her lover, held her hand, giving her confidence and strength.

The girl calmed down.

"Whether I stay or go back, I will help her, because Xiaomu is my other half."

【what about me? 】

Qing's arms stiffened slightly for a moment.

She caught this moment.

Miss Lover showed the most sincere and relaxed joy in the afternoon, a smile spread across her face, she reached out and gently touched Qing's lips, then took it back and put it on her own lips.

"Qing, you are my 'half life'. We will be together for the rest of our lives, so please don't be jealous of me because I was your playmate when you were a little girl, okay?"

"There is no such thing..."

……

"true."

Ruoye Mu sat on the stage, facing four people and an unconscious Ichiri.

"I really don't want to go back."

Su Shi rubbed her nails. She was the one who asked the goddess first, and then realized her brother's guess.

When she asked, Xiao Mu admitted it directly.

Standing on the stage, Ruoye Mu spoke frankly, "I don't want to take Xiao Mu back to that devil's den. Ruoye who's not funny and Minami-chan who's pretending to be young are both idiots! They don't even know their daughter has become like this.
