Comics: Starting from Killer Queen

Do you think everyone is a rich bastard like you?

Aozaki Aoko roared in her heart.

But considering that the other party responded to her kindness in a rather gentle way even though he knew the style of conveyor belt sushi, she did not say much, but changed the topic to what the young man had mentioned before.

"You said you were looking for a place. Did you have any specific conditions? You actually found Misaki City."

She folded her hands on the bar, supporting her sizable chest, her eyes fixed on the plates of sushi that passed by, and spoke as if she was chatting.

"Although I shouldn't say this about my hometown, there really isn't anything worth staying here for long. Have you been deceived by your partner?"

Although she felt in her heart that the term "contract" was proof of marriage, Qingzi was not sure whether this term was a new trend in big cities, so she continued to speak along with the young man.

"She doesn't even have the guts to lie to me."

The young man said this in a very confident tone, making the hierarchy between himself and his partner clear.

Aozaki Aoko was not surprised by this. Whether it was his appearance or his financial resources, the young man in front of her had the confidence and capital to say so.

"Hey, what about the specific goal? Let me give you some reference."

Aozaki Aoko doesn't like to talk too much with strangers, but for the sake of money, she still plans to maintain basic professional ethics.

"The target?"

The young man turned his head and gave a mysterious smile.

"——Do you believe in gravity?"

gravitational?

Aozaki Aoko blinked and couldn't help but start thinking about the other person's identity.

"In America, there is a region called Cape Calvina. Because of its low latitude, its gravity is the closest to the Earth's rotation on the planet, and tidal wonders often occur there, so it is also very suitable for rocket launches."

The young man took a sip of roasted tea and explained slowly.

"The place I'm looking for is very similar to it."

Aozaki Aoko looked at the young man speechlessly. Could it be that she was fooled? The aerospace situation of this island country was not trustworthy. If such a special place, Misaki City, existed, it would have been exposed long ago and would not have become so half-dead now.

However, there is no need for the other party to lie about this matter.

After all, I was deceived.

Aozaki Aoko sighed.

"If that's the case, you may be disappointed. There is no such place as you mentioned here. In fact, the entire island country should be..."

"I know."

The young man interrupted Aoko with a rather calm expression.

"I told you, this is just a similar example, just to help you understand better."

Aozaki Aoko clenched her fists.

It’s hard, the fist is hard!

This guy really thought she was a fool. He should not have accepted the money. Now he couldn't find a reason to get angry!

The apprentice magician was deeply regretting his previous greedy behavior, glaring at the sushi on the table, and stuffing it into his mouth continuously as if to seek revenge.

The young man continued to speak.

"And the place I want to find is probably the kind of place that has surreal anomalies and legends, a place that is completely inconsistent with the current era."

Hearing these words, Aozaki Aoko froze for a moment. Due to her confused thoughts, she stuffed a new piece of sushi into her mouth before she had even swallowed the previous food.

"Cough cough..."

She subconsciously wanted to say something in response, but because her mouth was full, she could only cough, then quickly gulped down a whole glass of water, swallowed the food in her mouth, and looked at Roland.

If this is the other party's purpose, then they have come to the right place.

In a big city like Tokyo, there are ghost stories that are spread by word of mouth, let alone a rural area like Misaki City?

Even the reason why she held a red umbrella was spread in school as her umbrella was white in the past, and she held a red umbrella because she made a deal with a monster.

From this incident, we can get a glimpse of the trend of ghost stories in Misaki City.

Other legends that have been passed down since ancient times have not only not declined with the development of modernization, but have revived instead.

For example, the decaying mansion on the mountain, the screams heard in the middle of the night, the forest ruins that are extremely dark even during the day, etc.

What’s worse is that, in a sense, it’s true.

She and her roommate are both magicians who are isolated from the secular world. As a local family, the sacred land controlled by the Aozaki family is second to none in the world, which can easily attract abnormal appearances and the prying eyes of foreign magicians, resulting in such legends that cannot be stopped despite repeated bans.

"Uh...most of this kind of thing is just misunderstanding. We should believe in science."

Aozaki Aoko knew that her expression was very stiff, but she still pretended to be calm and said.

At this point, she no longer felt any guilt about accepting the money.

The first element of magic is secrecy. Once someone sees you, erasing your memory is the most gentle means, and silencing them is generally the most common method.

And because I am still an apprentice, matters related to dealing with the impact of spiritual land are generally handled by my cohabitant on their own. I will only take her along occasionally as a training when the situation is appropriate.

She was sure that her cohabitant would not hesitate about silencing her. Even though they had become both a teacher and a friend, Qingzi would not deny the pale evil nature of her cohabitant.

"Believe in science..."

The young man was silent for a while and then chuckled.

"Having said that, I put in a lot of effort to get here. And after all, it was my partner who recommended this place, so I have to go and see it with my own eyes."

Aozaki Aoko took a deep breath and prepared to test the effect of suggestion on the other party after finishing the meal. Although she was not very confident about the effectiveness of her suggestion, she could not care less now.

Therefore, although she was still a little uncomfortable saying her name to a stranger she had never met before, in order to shorten the distance and increase the success of the suggestion, Aozaki Aoko still took the initiative to speak.

"We don't know each other's names yet, right? My name is Aozaki Aoko, what's yours?"

"Roland, my name is Roland."

The young man shrugged and said with a smile, as if he suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, is the last name Aozaki common?"

"No, what's wrong?"

Aozaki Aoko looked at Roland suspiciously and picked up another piece of sushi.

"I see. It's just that my partner's hometown is also this city, so I think it's just a coincidence."

Roland shrugged and laughed.

"After all, her last name is Aozaki too."

"what?"

Aozaki Aoko's shoulders shrank, and the movement of picking up the sushi seemed to be frozen in place. She turned her head blankly and looked at Roland's face with astonishment as if she had seen a ghost.

Chapter 196 Qingzi: I have a brother-in-law?

If you look across the entire island country, you will always find several people with the same surname as Aozaki.

But only in Misaki City, Aozaki Aoko can be sure that her own family is the only one with this name.

In the magic world, names are also quite meaningful, and this is even more so when one is a spiritual vein manager recognized by the Magic Association.

Aozaki Aoko's face became increasingly stiff, and she stared at Roland with sharp eyes.

"What a coincidence..."

"Isn't that right?" Roland seemed very happy. "If the difference in temperament between you two wasn't so huge, I wouldn't be so unsure about the relationship between you two. Eh... from this point of view, although your styles are completely different, your looks always feel a bit similar..."

"Well, can you tell me her name and characteristics? Because this surname is not very common, I always feel like she is someone I know."

Aoko gave a dry laugh and felt that the sushi in front of her was becoming bland.

"feature?"

Roland thought about it for a while, but didn't keep it a secret.

"She's very pretty, but her style is more like a queen, and her hair color is dark red, which gives her a cold vibe. As for your name, it's very similar to yours, Aozaki, both featuring colors."

"Orange, my partner is called Aozaki Orange."

"boom--!"

Aozaki Aoko slammed her hands on the table and stood up. The shock in her eyes was no less than when she was suddenly called to inherit the family business.

Being able to say this name is enough to prove that the other person is not someone who is attracted to you by your looks.

It's not Aozaki Aoko's fault that she still has this kind of vigilance. No matter from which angle you look at her, she deserves to be called a beautiful girl. Even though her temperament is so cold that it makes people awe-inspiring, and she even has a horrifying record of throwing out someone who confessed his love to her in her first year of high school, she still has a large number of fans in school.

But for Qingzi, it would be more convenient for Roland to be just a simple flirt.

"Ms. Aozaki? Everyone around here is looking over here."

Roland, who was sitting in his seat, looked at Aozaki Aoko, whose face suddenly turned gloomy, and kindly reminded her.

Even though she doesn't know magic, Aoko's fighting ability far exceeds that of ordinary female high school students. Her action just now caused quite a scary commotion and attracted a lot of people's attention. And since Roland and Aoko both have outstanding looks, this attraction has reached a higher level.

At the table next to him, some guests had already started to whisper, and many men were casting jealous and gloating looks at Roland.

But Aozaki Aoko, who noticed this, still had no intention of restraining herself. Although if she made a bigger noise, it might damage her image as the student council president that she had worked so hard to maintain, she still knew what was important when faced with the serious threat of her life being in jeopardy.

Aozaki Aoko subconsciously mobilized her own magic power, letting it run wildly in the circuit and releasing it directly.

She was not good at flattering conversation, especially when facing that woman.

This is a common method of probing used by magicians. Faced with alien magic that comes at you like a needle, at such a close distance, it is difficult for a magician with a circuit to avoid being exposed. Although such a precise operation is quite difficult for Aozaki Aoko, whose hints are often accidentally turned into Yinqi bombs and whose aggressiveness is too strong, according to her roommate, such a probing effect is better without having to hide her identity.

Under the influence of Aozaki Aoko's own talent, the pure magic impact gradually spread out, turning into a light breeze and blowing towards Roland. This technique that looked like releasing magic was more like a provocation than a test. If he was a magician, it would be impossible for him to ignore this threat.

But it was completely different from what Aoko had imagined. Her magic power completely passed through the opponent's body, but she did not get any feedback. In other words, there was no pseudo-organ like magic circuit in the opponent's body. He was just an ordinary person who was isolated from the mystery.

This is natural. The Aozaki family has been the administrator of Misaki City for a hundred years. They have a large barrier covering the land, which can monitor fluctuations caused by abnormal magic and magic, and thus confirm the movements of outsiders.

In addition, now that the cohabitants are also participating in the management of the barrier, it is better to say that this situation is normal.

"Ms. Aozaki, are you okay?"

"Sorry, I was thinking about something and got distracted."

Aozaki Aoko frowned, pretending nothing had happened, and sat down again. She tried her best to get her eyes back on the rotating sushi, but she still looked at Roland's face from time to time.

So, she has a brother-in-law?

It was really hard for Aozaki Aoko to imagine her sister committing herself to someone else and choosing to get married, but she could not completely deny this possibility.

After all, the man in front of me is indeed quite perfect.

This kind of perfection does not only refer to appearance, but also to the other person's full spirit and the sense of indifference reflected in the details of the actions.

In every conversation before, no matter what the situation was or what actions she made, apart from the otherworldly and comfortable feeling of being one with nature, she did not feel any sense of vulgarity.

Just like the Prince Charming who only exists in fairy tales, it’s no wonder that Orange was moved.

After all, a magician is quite unusual, and besides, this guy is also very rich.

"Because this matter is really unbelievable, it took me a while to digest it. Is your partner really Aozaki Touko? Although I shouldn't say this, that woman always easily plays other men in the palm of her hand."

"She is indeed very unreliable in normal times, but I would not make irresponsible remarks on such matters. I only said this after we had established a relatively close relationship."

"for example?"

Seeing Aozaki Aoko asking questions without any sense of distance, Roland smiled faintly, without any sign of being angry or embarrassed because the authenticity of his words was questioned.

"Well, when we first met, she made a gift for me for free. Then she put her head on my shoulder and talked to me under the moonlight. Oh, and we also got a dog together..."

"That's enough."

Aozaki Aoko felt a pang of pain in her teeth, and seeing that Roland was getting more and more excited, she quickly interrupted him.

Her elder sister actually did something like a girl in love. If it wasn't in public, she would have rolled on the ground holding her stomach and laughing.

As if to prove that he was not just a gigolo who relied on the other party, Roland paused and added.

"But I didn't just accept Miss Orange's kindness. I also gave her a gift. Although it may sound like boasting, the value of this gift may be much more expensive than Miss Orange's entire fortune."

After hearing this, Aozaki Aoko understood everything.

She looked at Roland with pity, and had already sketched out his past in her mind: a young man from a wealthy family with good character who accidentally met Orange, who had a mysterious temperament and an unusually magical nature, and was completely attracted to her and fell in love with her.
