[Complete] Sibyl the Immortal

Later, when Ten Shu recalled that day, he realized how many things he had neglected at that time.

The omens came early.

The child, from long ago, had been saying goodbye to them.

It's just that at that time, no one noticed it.

***

April 7

"The sea is really beautiful, hey, Xiaoyang?"

Ten bunches of Duo Duo Liang asked Xi Yang with a smile, and the little girl nodded.

"Yeah." The waves of the sea reflected the eyes into a warm and bright color, "It's so beautiful."

"Come here, come here." Shi Shu dragged Xiyang to the beach, "It will be fun soon."

A wave of waves crashed against the ankles of the two of them, Xi Yang slightly opened his eyes wide.The sand grains under the heels flowed away with the tide, and the feeling of rubbing against the soles of the feet was amazing. The body had the illusion that it was receding. The feeling of the sea water rolling the sand grains and flowing over the toes was subtle and indescribable.

Shi Shu smiled and let go of her hand: "How about it, it was a very good experience."

"Ah."

The girl responded lightly, and took a step forward hesitantly.

The tides come and go, over and over again.Xi Yang stood in the water, her long black hair was dyed an unreal color by the sunlight.Not far away, Hatta was surfing, and the figure of the boy galloping on the sea caused countless girls to scream.A big wave hit, and the cold sea water submerged up to the girl's chest. The wonderful feeling made her take a few steps forward, as if she wanted to chase the receding tide.

A child life buoy was put on her.Ten beams grabbed the lifebuoy from behind and exaggeratedly wiped off the cold sweat.

"Really, I thought you would be washed away by the sea."

The girl tilted her head when she heard the words, was patted on the head by Shi Shu, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to learn to swim?"

"……want."

***

With Xiyang's physical strength, he would get tired after playing in the water for a long time, so he obediently sat beside Zhou Fangzun and watched the barking dancers play.Shi Shu grinned and went to tease Anna who was playing with sand sculptures. After a while, the two splashed water on each other in the sea and made a fuss.Xi Yang put on the sun hat with red flowers and looked at the boundary line where the sky and the sea meet.

"Totara's camera is broken, what a pity."

"..." ← Someone who accidentally broke the ten-beam camera before.

Zhou Fangzun coughed uncomfortably, and looked away.

"Do you really want to record it?"

"Just wondering what it was like to record those daily routines."

Hearing this, Zhou Fangzun closed his eyes and fell asleep on his side.

"Ah, there will be a chance."

The little girl propped her chin with her hands, staring into the distance in a daze.Suddenly a piece of fried noodles was placed in front of her eyes, and Toshio Kamamoto smiled at her.

"Try it, Xiaoyang?"

"Yeah." The little girl took a lot of effort to break open the disposable chopsticks, and when she was about to raise the chopsticks, she suddenly stopped and looked at Kamamoto, "Lifu will be different in summer."

"Well, because it's too hot to eat in summer, so I naturally lost weight."

Xiyang silently glanced at the steaming fried noodles stove, then silently at the burning sun in the sky, and then silently at Kamamoto Rikio, who was thin and thin into a beautiful young man.

"Oh."

Too hot to eat?

If Xiyang was complaining, he would definitely throw out the three words without hesitation - ghosts believe.

It's a pity that Xiyang's role setting is three no.

So whether the author believes it or not, she does anyway.

Kamamoto put down a bottle of ice cream with a smile, patted Xiyang on the head, and continued to fry noodles—cooking noodles amidst a group of girls screaming.

Well, by the way, Kamamoto, who has lost weight in the summer, has a beauty score of more than 90 points far surpassing Hatta Akagi Bando.

Coupled with the addition of a good temper and a cheerful and healthy smile, the popularity has increased by 100%.

Xi Yang lowered his head to eat his fried noodles, felt thirsty after eating for a while, so he reached out to unscrew the cap of the bottle of Coke.

"..."

Can't unscrew.

"...!"

Still can't unscrew.

"...!!!"

Still...can't unscrew it.

One hand snatched the bottle in her hand, and with a light twist of two fingers, she unscrewed the bottle cap that she couldn't unscrew no matter what.Zhou Fangzun handed the bottle to Xi Yang with an expression of impatience, the little girl was startled, took the bottle and thanked him softly.

Zhou Fangzun let out an "ah" as if he was coping, lay down flat and closed his eyes and continued to sleep.The little girl tilted her head to look at him, then suddenly put down the thing in her hand, lay down beside his head and looked at him without making a sound.

Not long after, Zhou Fangzun grabbed his head and sat up irritably, looking at Xi Yang indifferently.

"...I see. What do you want to say?"

"..."

The little girl's eyes lit up all of a sudden, she ran to the side and took out a book and handed it to Zhou Fangzun.

The Metamorphoses by the Roman poet Ovid.

"……………………"

"There are some characters that Xiyang doesn't know, can you read them to her?"

Zhou Fangzun felt a dull pain in his forehead.

"No."

The little girl's bright eyes suddenly dimmed.She didn't say much, just lowered her head in frustration, and silently took back the book.

Zhou Fangzun felt his head hurt even more for a moment.

Roughly tore the Metamorphosis book, flipping through it randomly, Zhou Fangzun's voice was as low as crawling out of hell.

"...Which one?"

"Perseus and Andromeda."

"The story of the princess rescued by the prince?"

"Ah."

No matter what kind of Jedi she is in, there will always be someone who will lead her to break through her desperate fate.She would occasionally want to hear such a story.

Zhou Fangzun was silent for a moment, then turned the pages of the book.

"When Perseus flew over the Libyan desert, the blood from Medusa's head dripped and fell to the ground, turning into various snakes... He flew over countless tribes, and at last he saw Ethiopia, the land of Koppus, where Jupiter the Unjust ordered Andromeda to be sacrificed for her mother's blunders... He was fascinated by her extraordinary beauty, I almost forgot that you have to flap your wings in the air..."

Perseus is a happy hero.

Because no matter how much suffering and trials he endures, he can finally save those who want to be saved.He finally broke through the cursed fate with his beloved Andromeda and arrived at the perfect HAPPYEND.

Want such a hero?

No.

Rather, I want to be such a hero.

***

"That's right, I heard people say that there seems to be a ghost here."

When Toshio Kamamoto said this, Misaki Hatta couldn't help but slapped the face of the person next to her.

"What what?!"

"It is said that a child drowned in a cave by the sea... Once you enter the cave, you will hear the child's footsteps. It is said that the child has not realized the fact that he is dead until now, and is still wandering in the cave. ..."

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

Hatta suddenly let out a series of screams and fell off the chair. Anna stretched out her hands and stood behind him blankly, looking at Misaki Hatta trembling on the ground for some reason.

"An'an, Anna?!!!"

"You don't have to be scared like this, Brother Hatta..."

"I, I'm not afraid!!!"

then……

"A test of courage?"

Xi Yang tilted his head and looked at Shi Shu and Kusanaru.

"That's right~ Courage contest~" Ten beams smiled and raised an index finger, "Let's go to explore caves with ghost legends together. It's very interesting to think about it! And, if there are ghosts, Maybe we can chat with him, maybe we will become friends, not necessarily."

Kusanagi's forehead covered with black lines: "That's why I told you not to be so optimistic about ghosts..."

"Also, if there is a ghost, I feel that Xiaoyang must be able to see it~"

Xi Yang drank the coke silently, but suddenly paused when he heard the words.

She looked at Shi Shu's shoulder with an unusually subtle look, and didn't look away until Shi Shu felt uncomfortable.

Today's topic——

...How do you tell your friend that there is a monster lying on his back right now?

Sound of Mystery:

At times like this, just smile.

***

After returning from the cave, everyone's mood was obviously a little low.

After all, no matter what, losing a friend is still a bit too heavy.

"The boy who lost his friend has been wandering in the cave, wanting to see his dead friend again, even if it is a ghost, but he doesn't know that the so-called ghost legend has arisen because of his frequent visits... What a sad story. .”

Ten bundles are so emotional.Xi Yang walked behind him silently, and looked back at the cave.

Although there are no ghosts, there are obviously other bad things in there.

"Speaking of which, Xiaoyang, what did you paste back then? I was taken aback. I swiped the opened talisman paper, and it was automatically pasted on the stone wall, and then blood red handwriting suddenly appeared... Hatta almost fainted from your fright. Is it some special magic?"

"...That's right."

↑ Someone who simply equated magic with magic.

"Xiao Yang is amazing!"

"Well……"

The girl lowered her eyes slightly, not going to tell them how many monsters she stepped on at that time.

It's not difficult to knock those monsters to the ground, but avoiding these invisible people is the most troublesome thing.

"It's true that King suddenly ignited the flames, ready to burn the ghost? Everyone was shocked when they found out that the so-called ghost was a boy."

Xi Yang's distant eyes were expressionless.

Thanks to Zhou Fangzun's flames, those monsters all ran away with a scream, otherwise they drove them away one by one, and I don't know if they would have discovered their flaws.

"Seeing how hard you work, I thought you liked supernatural events." Kusanagi looked at Shishu helplessly, "It turned out that you don't believe in ghosts at all."

Shi Shu rubbed his head and laughed haha: "But I really think it would be great if there was one."

Kusanagi is in a bad mood: "...what are you expecting, the ghost is not Santa Claus!"

"Hmm...they are all imaginative existences, right?"

"...I really don't understand your thoughts."

Ten beams suddenly stopped and looked at the sea under the night sky from afar.Xi Yang paused, then looked up at the young man's handsome side face.

"Dodora?"

"It would be great if I... could stay in that place after death."

Xi Yang's complexion suddenly turned pale.

"However, things like ghosts can be seen as long as you want to see them. It may have nothing to do with the dead person."

With a pale face, the little girl stared blankly at Toku Tara.

After a long time, she gently took Shi Shu's hand.Her fingers were stiff and cold.

"Tatara will not die."

Xi Yang lowered her head deeply, her long hair hanging down concealed her expression.

"Xi Yang won't let Duo Duo Liang die."

After a long time, Shishu regretted it.

At that time, why didn't you notice it?

He realized that Xiyang was actually trembling all the time.

If you notice, then many things will not be what they were later?

However, at this moment, the self who knew nothing just smiled as usual and patted Xiyang on the head.

"Then please Xiaoyang."

Unconsciously.Said such a thing.

The author has something to say: Perseus passed through Ethiopia when he returned home after killing Medusa the Gorgon, and met Andromeda, the princess who was about to be sacrificed. Perseus fell in love with her, and Killed the sea monster for her and married the princess.At the wedding, the princess' uncle came to snatch the bride, and Perseus used Medusa's head to petrify them all, and finally took the princess back to his country.

He is a hero with a rare happy ending in Greek mythology, so he is a happy hero.

The story of Perseus and Andromeda is a metaphor for Zhou Fangzun and Xiyang.

Well.Everyone will understand when it is written there.

Duo Duo Liang didn't take Xi Yang's words seriously.

He didn't realize that everything the girl said was serious.

Some of the lines in this chapter are quoted from No.13 of "K·Red Memory".

What Zhou Fangzun read to Xiyang was "The Metamorphosis" written by the ancient Roman poet Ovid, which was written around 1 to 3 AD, and had nothing to do with Kafka's book.Strongly recommend this book, although there are only scanned PDFs online, and paper books cannot be bought.But really, really good.
