Love is not as fun as World of Warcraft

"Wait, wait!"

Now it was Wu Lu Yu Yi's turn to be anxious. She stepped forward and tried to grab Shirasaka's arm to hold him back, but the pain in her body failed. Wu Lu Yu Yi could only hug Shirasaka's thigh helplessly and uttered a weak sound.

It's not that she really doubted that Shirasaka's relationship with her had faded. After all, she could see that the young man in front of her really respected her feelings and even awakened her from her frenzy. Even at this time, he didn't think of forcing herself to tell the truth.

But it was precisely because of this incident that she suddenly realized a very important issue, that is, this time when she went berserk, it was Shirasaka who helped her restrain herself, but what if she got sick again next time?

Without Shirasaka, if he met someone from the official side or from the Kyon Esoteric Sect, would he still be able to maintain such good luck?

Wu Lu Yu Yi didn't dare to take the gamble. After all, if something happened to her, it would be fine. She still had Wu Lu Xiao Cheng to raise. If that little guy lost her at this age, it would be like the sky falling.

And right now, it seems that the only person she can trust is the young man in front of her. At least Shirasaka has long been like a younger brother to her. It can be seen from her previous and current performance that at least he does not despise his identity as a monster.

If it really doesn't work, she will have to find a way to entrust Wu Lu Xiao Cheng to him first. After all, he is the only person she can trust at the moment.

"If I tell you that I'm actually a half-demon, you won't dislike me, right?"

She hardened her heart and gritted her teeth to tell him her biggest secret. Wu Lu Yuyi looked up at Shirasaka like a pitiful girl. Her mature and mature appearance combined with her girlish expression created a huge visual impact.

"Wouldn't it have been better if you had been so honest earlier? If you had anything to say, wouldn't you have just said it clearly? With our relationship, why are you still talking about disdain? Didn't you disdain me, a poor and incompetent wage earner, back then?"

Shirasaka scratched his head, bent down and helped up Wu Lu Yu Yi, who was still holding his thigh to prevent him from leaving. He was telling the truth. Before he was promoted, if it weren't for Wu Lu Yu Yi's care, he would not have been able to work and maintain his studies at the same time. This is why he was particularly tolerant towards Wu Lu Yu Yi.

Whoever treats him well, Shirasaka will treat her better. This is the principle that Shirasaka believes in. It's just a matter of repaying a favor. What's wrong with that?

As for being a half-demon, what does it matter? Even if she is a real monster, as long as she doesn't hurt others, or if you don't see it, isn't that the same as not existing?

Shirasaka is not a person with the same personality as Kagami Ichinose, and he himself has never denied that he does have a tendency to be a bit hypocritical in this regard.

"Really? Shirasaka-kun, you don't care about this? You must have seen it before. I am an extremely dangerous Gyuto bird. Aren't you afraid at all?"

Wu Lu Yu Yi pursed her lips. She didn't expect Shirasaka to answer like that. For a moment, she found it hard to accept why Shirasaka was so reasonable.

"What's there to be afraid of? I used to rely on exorcising monsters as a secondary job. It's good enough that monsters are not afraid of me."

Shirasaka shook his head. He had always had a subtle attitude towards monsters, but he was not afraid of them. He even wished there were more monsters around him. After all, that meant he could gain more experience.

"..."

After Shirasaka said this, Wu Lu Yuyi was indeed a little scared. She didn't know that Shirasaka had such a side job before. If she thought about it carefully, it seemed that the boy in front of her seemed even more mysterious than herself. After all, she had never seen how a boy who looked so ordinary could fight against her in a violent state alone and calm himself down.

We have witnessed his decisive killing side before. When dealing with the evil followers of the False Words Cult, he showed no mercy at all, which was enough to make people wonder if he was the monster.

"I think you should tell me more than just the fact that you're a half-demon. Are you going to discuss other secrets with me in detail, such as why you suddenly went berserk?"

Shirasaka didn't know what Urusugi thought of him. He just glanced at her in silence and continued to ask.

This guy has more secrets than just these few.

Chapter 126: Half-Demon

"You have to ask everything clearly?"

Helping Shirasaka to stand up pitifully, Wu Lu Yuyi's eyes showed a hint of reluctance. She was already very sensitive about her identity, and Shirasaka's question was like digging into her deepest secrets.

"Of course. Either pretend you know nothing, or know everything."

Shirasaka nodded. After all the hard work, he only got half the answer. This was definitely unacceptable to him. He also wanted to take this opportunity to find out the secret of Wu Lu Yu Yi.

In this way, it would be easier for me to explain my side when she gets along with Kagami Ichinose in the future, right?

Shirasaka doesn't think that the simple identity of a half-demon is enough to convince Ichinose Kagami, and why she became a half-demon is something that can actually be explained in depth.

Shirasaka had never heard of such a thing from Ichinose Kagamikabe and Kitami Natsuka, but there was such a setting in Nioh. However, generally speaking, guys with the identity of half-demon had a considerable background.

"Actually, if I knew why, I wouldn't have been caught by you here. But clearly, I had almost no experience like this before this."

Wu Lu Yu Yi sighed. Since she had chosen to believe Shirasaka, it seemed that she had no reason to hide anything from him. She was already tied to his boat, and hiding it any further seemed to be of no use.

"So, you were able to control your power before, and wouldn't go berserk. Do all half-demons have rationality like you?"

Shirasaka pinched her chin as she extracted information from Urusuga's words. According to her, this rampage seemed to be the first time for her. In other words, she had never done anything like a monster targeting humans before?

This is a good thing for Shirasaka. Otherwise, if Urusuga was really a kind of evil monster in the past, he would still feel a little disgusted.

At least for now, it seems that her human side is superior to her monster side.

"I haven't seen any other half-demons, and even my identity as a half-demon is just my own guess. I wasn't born a monster."

Wu Lu Yu Yi gave Shirasaka a small look. She knew that it was inevitable that he would misunderstand her. It was good that he just had such thoughts. If it were the village where she lived as a child, she would always be regarded as a heretic, and even just used as a backup sacrifice.

"Can this thing also be acquired?"

Shirasaka hadn't thought that there was such a theory about Urusugi's half-demon identity. He originally thought that she might be the child of a very traditional human and a monster. But judging by what she said now, it seemed that she was a normal human being before?

It was already abnormal that there was a magical girl who could use the power of monster soul cores. But here there is an even more amazing one who directly combined them and became a half-demon?

It seems that there are quite a few hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this world!

"...Actually, I was raised by a Guhuo bird."

Wu Lu Yu Yi ignored Shirasaka's complaints and talked about her past with a nostalgic look on her face.

"You know, Guhuo Bird is also nicknamed the Birth Girl, which is what I look like after I transform into a monster."

Worried that Shirasaka didn't know about this monster, Urusuga even mentioned its story. Therefore, Shirasaka could see that she had a special feeling for this monster.

"I understand. They're the rare monsters in legends that have no resistance to children. There are even rumors that they will actively kidnap children to satisfy their own special needs."

Shirasaka nodded. Although there were many rumors about the monster called Gyuto, judging from the performance of Ulu Yuyi, this explanation was obviously more consistent with it.

"Yes, I am the child that was raised by the Guhuo Bird as rumored. However, unlike the rumors, it raised me until I was five years old."

Wu Lu Yuyi's tone became heavier, as if he was recalling a long-forgotten past, and there was even a hint of nostalgia in it.

Shirasaka could understand this. It was similar to the wolf girl and bear boy stories he had seen before. In those cases, wild beasts that had lost their cubs raised human cubs as their own. This was not something impossible.

If it were a monster, at least the Gyouhuo Bird could really have this possibility.

But it can also be said that Wu Lu Yu Yi may have been gifted since childhood. After all, she is still a monster, and it is very likely a monster living in the darkness. She has been able to live in the darkness for so long. After thinking about it, the only explanation is talent.

"And you turned into a half-demon because of this interaction with her?"

Seeing that Wu Lu Yu Yi was silent for a long time, obviously still immersed in her memories, Shirasaka interrupted her with a light voice.

He doesn't think that one can become a half-demon directly by spending a few years with monsters. If it were that simple, there would definitely be people who would practice it. How could it be achieved so easily?

"Of course not... It's just that, for some reason, that Guhuo Bird died protecting me. Before dying, it transferred its soul core to me, and that's how I became what I am now."

Wu Lu Yuyi paused when she said this. This was not something worth remembering for her, so her tone suddenly became low.

Shirasaka was tactful enough not to ask her why the Gyuto bird died. This kind of thing would be considered violating other people's taboos, and it would definitely be impolite to ask again.

What she said was clear enough. The most important reason for transforming into a half-demon is that the monster must voluntarily hand over the soul core, right?

This logic can be explained clearly. After all, there must be a big difference between voluntarily giving up one's abilities and using them in other ways later. The compatibility is no longer on the same level.

But it is not so easy to replicate this method. First of all, you have to find a monster that is not hostile to ordinary people. This has already eliminated most of the possibilities. Anyway, Shirasaka has not seen any non-hostile monsters, and he has not seen many that will not rush up to attack him immediately.

Then there is the question of how to make a monster willingly dedicate its soul core to a human, not to mention how much it would cost.

It can be said that it is almost impossible to replicate the half-demon identity of Urusugi Yuyi. In any case, Shirasaka instantly lost the idea of giving himself a half-demon identity.

"Then what about the rampage?"

Shirasaka nodded after finally figuring out the half-demon identity of Wu Lu Yu Yi. To put it bluntly, Wu Lu Yu Yi cannot be purely classified as a monster. To be honest, she should still be considered a human. After all, her thoughts and personality are dominated by human nature, and her identity as a Gyuto is just brought by that soul core.

But even so, it cannot explain why she went berserk. Could it be that she became like that because she had been holding it in for too long and had no human cubs to rub against?

This reason is a bit unreasonable. Wu Lu Yu Yi doesn't live alone. Doesn't she have a little orange to use as a meal replacement? Although Wu Lu Xiao Cheng is a little naughty and a little precocious, he is still a real child.

Leaving the little ones at home to feed, and running to the orphanage outside to find wild children, is this considered cheating in some sense?

"...I really don't understand what I'm saying. If I have to say something is wrong, it's probably just that I've been feeling the soul core in my body stirring, as if something has aroused its power."

Wu Lu Yu Yi smiled bitterly. She really didn't know why she went berserk. In order to escape her half-demon identity, she had not used the power from the Gyuto for a long time. Her peaceful life was only broken when the people from the Kyojin Esoteric Cult came looking for her not long ago.

And it was after that that she clearly realized that the power from the Guhuo Bird in her body began to become restless, but since there was no outbreak, she didn't take it seriously. After all, she could suppress the desire.

But the current facts also told her that perhaps she could suppress it when she was awake, but desire always needed an outlet. If she kept suppressing it, it would only lead to a bigger explosion.

"Is there such a thing?"

Shirasaka didn't feel anything different, but since Wu Lu Yuyi said so, it probably meant that something was really happening quietly, which was obviously a sign of some kind.

——If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do. Shirasaka still knows too little about monsters, so she has to ask Kagami Ichinose to get the answer.

"Well, this unrest has been intensifying. If my guess is correct, the monsters in the darkness of Kamijuma should also be affected during this period?"

Wu Lu Yu Yi expressed her guess. This shouldn't be directed solely at herself. As a half-demon, she was so violent. There was no reason why those genuine monsters would not be affected.

"This... I killed all the other monsters I encountered directly. I can't say whether they were affected..."

Chapter 127: Can You Please Open Your Mouth?

Wu Lu Yu Yi really didn't expect Shirasaka to give such an answer. She felt the atmosphere suddenly became tense. She could only forcefully pull the corners of her mouth and then pretend that she didn't hear anything and looked away.

This guy didn't kill me, so it means I have a good relationship with him, right?

"What are you going to do after that? You're in this state now, who knows if you'll continue to go berserk? Speaking of which, why didn't you do anything to your little Orange? Logically speaking, shouldn't she be the best target?"

Shirasaka pinched his chin. Until now, he still couldn't figure out why Wu Lu Yu Yi only let Xiao Chengzi go. This was a bit unreasonable.

"...Perhaps, the only time I see her now is when I don't think of her as a child, but only as a headache?"

Thinking of this, Wu Lu Yu Yi couldn't help but scratch her head in embarrassment. It's true that Wu Lu and Xiao Cheng are very cute, and she also likes to hug Xiao Cheng when she has nothing to do to relieve the urge to express her maternal love, but the problem is.

As Wu Lu and Xiao Cheng grew older, she gradually reached the age where even the dog would dislike her. Whenever Wu Lu Yu Yi thought of Xiao Cheng's chubby little face, the first thing she felt was an endless headache.

Especially when she thought about having to help her with her homework at night, she felt as if she was in hell, where life was worse than death.

How could he have any intention of attacking her? So even if he went berserk, he would probably have to avoid this guy. Although he felt very sorry for his daughter, the truth was probably that simple.

"..."

"Don't let Xiao Chengzi know about this. She will definitely be sad."

Covering her face, she grumbled quietly. Shirasaka could imagine the sad face of Wu Lu Xiao Cheng after seeing all this. Being disliked by her own mother, and even after going berserk, she wasn't treated as a child. Wasn't this a bit too tragic? What on earth did she do in her daily life to deserve this?

"Ahem, just don't say anything."

Wu Lu Yuyi also knew that this was indeed a bit unfair to her silly daughter. After coughing twice, she decisively changed the subject.

"As for how to deal with the subsequent rampage, I can't think of any good solution right now... Shirasaka-kun, can you help me?"

Wu Lu Yu Yi looked at Shirasaka with some embarrassment. She was still a little afraid that she might go berserk again at any time like before. The problem was that she had no way to control this kind of thing. She couldn't think of any way to deal with it no matter how hard she tried, so she could only pin her hopes on the young man in front of her.

"How can I help you? The most I can do is wake you up like I am doing now, but the problem is that I can't be by your side all the time, Sister Yuyi."

Shirasaka spread his hands. He really couldn't do anything about this kind of thing. After all, he was not a monster, so how could he know how to stop himself from going berserk?

The most he could do was to wait until the rampage occurred and stop her, but if he wanted to stop Karasuga Yui from going berserk, he would probably have to find Kagami Ichinose to get the answer.

"That's not impossible."

Wu Lu Yu Yi lowered her head and pondered for a long time, then as if she had thought of something, she looked into Shirasaka's eyes with a subtle look.

"what?"

"I mean, I remember that you, Shirasaka-kun, are still living in the apartment I found for you? Isn't the house next to you still empty?"

Her fingers touched lightly, as if she knew that doing so might cause great trouble to Shirasaka, so she instinctively felt a little embarrassed and stammered out her thoughts and suggestions, while turning her head away, trying to avoid Shirasaka's inquiring gaze.

When Shirasaka heard her say this, he guessed what her so-called solution was.

So if there's really no other way, you just dump all the stress on yourself, right? There's no way to solve the problem of going berserk, so you just make sure you can be calmed down afterward. This solution isn't impossible, but it's clearly a bit too intense.

It is known that Wu Lu Yu Yi would not enter this state when she was awake, so if she had a seizure, it would be when she was resting. If she was by his side at this time, something like this would not have happened.

After all, Shirasaka couldn't really ignore her. If she really ran away and was caught by other people with bad intentions, there was no guarantee that she would ever come back.

"So the pressure is on me, right? Sister Yuyi, you have made a good calculation."

Looking at Wu Lu Yu Yi's face full of apology and regret, Shirasaka couldn't think of blaming her. At the moment, it seemed that this was the best way for her. If she didn't rely on herself, then she seemed to have no other hope.

"That's not what I meant. It's just that this seems to be the only solution right now. Of course, if you don't agree, Shirasaka-kun, then I can only think of something else. But if you don't accept, can you help me take care of Little Orange?"

Pursing her lips, Wu Lu Yu Yi knew that this would put a lot of unnecessary pressure on Shirasaka. Why would she bother him with her own affairs? This made no sense at all.

But despite this, she at least didn't want Wu Lu Xiao Cheng to fall into danger with her, so entrusting them to Shirasaka seemed to be the best solution at the moment.

"No, I can't control that girl. You can take her with you. If there's really no other way, you can move in here. But it's not free. You also have to help me take care of my two companions."

Shirasaka waved his hand. He couldn't stand the atmosphere created by Wu Lu Yuyi, which was like entrusting his son to someone else. If he asked her to move in, it wouldn't be a bad thing for him. Although it would be a bit troublesome when she went berserk, she wouldn't really hurt anyone, so it wasn't a big problem.
