Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

Although that's what she said, she actually had some expectations deep down.

After all, who hasn't fantasized about something like this?

Just as Nozomi Tojo was thinking this, a familiar gaze came from her.

Tojo Nozomi froze, looking in the direction the gaze was coming from.

Kagami's figure appeared in the reflection of the glass, gave Tojo Nozomi an unfriendly look, and then disappeared into the reflection.

"........."

Looking at the spotless glass, Nozomi Tojo was speechless for a moment.

She'd been so relaxed these past two days that she'd almost forgotten about the guy in front of her.

This guy who's been watching her from the shadows all along.

Nozomi Tojo rubbed her stiff face to make it look more natural before opening the classroom door.

Upon entering, all the classmates cast kind glances and greeted Nozomi Tojo.

Tojo Nozomi responded to each of these points.

However, her mind was not on that at all; all she could think about was herself in the mirror.

For Nozomi Tojo, that version of herself had become a source of deep anxiety.

As long as the other party exists, Nozomi Tojo will never be able to feel completely at ease.

Come to think of it, it's someone who is full of malice towards me, who is always thinking about coming out of that world to replace me, and who is always secretly watching me.

No one could possibly feel at ease.

Especially when this guy has the same appearance as me, but is even stronger.

'Fortunately, that guy can't get out of the mirror yet, I still have time.'

Nozomi Tojo patted her chest gently, looking very relieved.

At least for now, as long as I ignore that guy, there shouldn't be any major problems.

But we need to hurry, because once that guy has the ability to come out of the Mirror World, things will get really complicated.

Nozomi Tojo does not want her daily life to be disrupted.

She is actually quite satisfied with her current life.

Having like-minded partners, people who care about you, and people you care about.

Nozomi Tojo didn't want them to be implicated.

"What an enviable guy."

Jingxi's figure flashed across the glass of the clock hanging on the back wall of the classroom.

Looking at Tojo Nozomi, who was a prominent figure in the class, a hint of envy flashed in Kagami's eyes.

She harbored great malice towards Nozomi Tojo, but not so much malice towards the others.

She even had a good impression of some of the other members of the Muse.

What she wanted was to leave the mirror world, to live in this living world, and to leave that desolate world.

The world is too vast and lonely for her, being the only human being.

This loneliness can easily drive a person crazy.

Especially since she can see the real world through the glass every day.

Those beautiful, kind, dirty, and disgusting things are all things she cannot possess or touch.

"Right, Dark Dragon?"

With a slight lift of her hand, the jet-black Dark Dragon quietly landed behind Jingxi and let out a low roar.

Compared to Jingxi, it didn't think about as much.

There is more of an instinctive aversion to the Warriors Dragon.

It's like a fight between wild beasts.

There aren't that many reasons.

It doesn't matter whether it's the mirror world or the real world.

As long as there is prey, that's fine.

Although it has no prey because it can't go out for the time being, it can wait.

"Hmm? That direction?"

Just as Jing Xi was pondering this, a very ominous aura came from a certain direction.

Jingxi raised her head and frowned as she looked in that direction.

She recognized that scent.

It's the aura of those monsters.

But why would it appear in this place, and why does it seem to be so close?

With a frown, Jingxi seemed to have thought of something.

After hesitating for two seconds, Kagami took a deep look at Tojo Nozomi in the classroom before heading from the Mirror World to the sewer where she had encountered the monster earlier.

'The sight disappeared.'

As the cold gaze behind her disappeared, Nozomi Tojo couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Disappearing from sight is both a good thing and a bad thing.

That guy's departure will make Tojo Nozomi feel a little more at ease and less tense.

On the other hand, Tojo Nozomi was certain that this guy was definitely going to cause trouble.

She was attacked not long after she disappeared from sight last time.

What about this time?

Nozomi Tojo didn't know.

But it's foreseeable that nothing good will happen afterward.

That's what Nozomi Tojo thought.

Should I make an excuse to leave now?

Looking at the teacher on the podium, Nozomi Tojo hesitated.

Should I tell my teacher that I'm not feeling well and then try to track down that part of myself?

Nozomi Tojo hesitated for a long time but still couldn't make up her mind.

However, by this time, Jingxi had already gone quite far.

This is troublesome.

Before I knew it, the class was almost over.

Nozomi Tojo slapped herself in the face, annoyed at her previous indecisiveness.

Either go with them directly, or decide not to go.

Keeping up might reveal problems.

Deciding not to go will bring inner peace.

But hesitation not only fails to solve the problem, but also keeps you in a state of anxiety for a long time.

It's better to retreat or move forward than to remain hesitant and indecisive.

Patting her face, Nozomi Tojo decided that she could no longer be so indecisive.

This is her most basic requirement for herself.

While the idea is appealing, the reality remains to be seen.

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the private Otonokizaka Academy, Luo Zhen fell into deep thought.

"Should I make an excuse to go in, or should I wait a while?"

This is a question that is very worthwhile to consider.

Just as Luo Zhen was pondering, a strange aura entered his perception range.

"This feeling..."

Putting Tojo Nozomi's matter aside for now, Luo Zhen also looked in a certain direction.

Bloodlust, chaos.

This was the aura he sensed.

Overall, this is very bad.

"We can't ignore this."

Chapter 604 The Crimson Monster

During the lunch break, Nozomi Tojo politely declined her Muse companion's invitation, saying that she wanted to find a place to eat by herself that day.

Afterwards, he searched alone in the school for traces of his own mirror world self.

"hope........."

Watching Nozomi Tojo walk away alone, a hint of worry flashed in Honoka Takasaka's eyes.

Although she didn't know exactly what Nozomi Tojo was going there to do, Honoka Takasaka could guess a little.

She didn't know if Tojo Nozomi's decision was right, nor what the consequences would be.

But she knew it was dangerous.

Judging from the last time, she had no hope of winning against the Xi she knew.

If Xi hadn't been unable to get out of the mirror, the consequences would have been hard to predict.

In the past two days, Honoka Nakasaka has not asked Nozomi Tojo what happened.

If Nozomi Tojo wants to say something, she will say it naturally.

However, Tojo Nozomi has been in a bad mood these past two days and is still recovering from her injury, so she naturally hasn't talked much about these things.

The other Xi couldn't come out of the mirror, or so she deduced.

"Xi seems to be acting mysteriously lately."

Looking suspiciously in the direction Tojo Nozomi had left, the ATM girl...

"Oh no, it was Nishikino Maki who said with some concern."

No matter what, they were good friends in the team, and the others all sensed something was off about Tojo Nozomi.

This includes Koizumi Hanayo, whose presence is relatively low.

In fact, Koizumi Hanayo had a deeper feeling about Tojo Nozomi's unusual behavior.

Koizumi Hanayo is an introverted girl.

I don't know why introversion always seems to be associated with sensitivity.

Introverted children are generally very sensitive and can accurately perceive the emotions of those around them.

How could she not notice Nozomi Tojo's unusual behavior?

"Well, Xi has her own things to do, so let's not ask any more questions for now."

Honoka Takasaka clapped her hands and deliberately raised her voice.

The attention of the people around was immediately drawn to it, which was exactly the result Honoka Takasaka had hoped for.

"Guoguo, do you know anything?"

Shifting her position, Minami Kotori looked at her friend with some concern and asked.

She is now very worried that Nozomi Tojo may have accidentally come into contact with something she shouldn't have.
