The Magician's Skyfall

Akamatsu Ryu has little interest in literature.

Even though he knew that Osamu Dazai, Fyodor and others were literary giants, but I have nothing to do with it, Akamatsu Ryu only regards these people as some familiar strangers.

As for what kind of person the other party will be, time will naturally tell everything.

But apparently Akamatsu Ryu's cousin Siyana doesn't think so.

Akamatsu Ryu, as the heir of the Akamaz family, has been busy with his studies since he was a child, and has no time to read these literary works.

But Xiyana was set for a future of marriage from the very beginning, she didn't need to learn too advanced magic, and naturally had enough time to read some weird books.

Such as Shakespeare, such as Sherlock Holmes, and many literary works on the European continent.

Xiyana likes to read Pride and Prejudice and Yeats. She is happy to read these works full of dreams and sweetness. At the same time, she also has the nature of a magician and likes books full of distortion, deception and sophistry.

Such as Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov.

Akamatsu Ryu didn't know about this at all, so when he heard his cousin screaming that he would detain Fyodor and Gogol to write a book, he was a little confused for a while.

He had to ask Xiyana tactfully: "Do you want to watch them write novels?"

Xiyana said repeatedly: "Of course I would! There was no chance before, but now those literary giants have become people with supernatural powers. No matter how they change, the essence is the same."

Akamatsu thought for a while and said: "If I see them, I can ask them for you, but I don't guarantee that they can write the text you like. After all, creation is a matter of talent and inspiration."

Xiyana was very happy: "I understand, please brother!"

After a pause, Xiyana whispered: "By the way, brother, now that the magic power of Dayuan has changed, the Mujik family seems to want to place a bet and try to rise again in the next game of interests. Do you have any ideas?"

What can Akamatsu think?That was the business of the Mujik family after all.

"Just protect yourself and your son." Chi Songliu warned, "Don't get involved."

Xiyana obediently agreed.

While Akamatsu was communicating with his cousin, Osamu Dazai, who was slowly drinking mushroom soup in the restaurant, suddenly raised his head and looked out the window.

The dining room on the first floor of the apartment is connected to the living room. There are floor-to-ceiling windows facing the dining room. People in the room can clearly see the garden outside.

The garden is lush and lush, with many plants growing. Among the intertwined branches and leaves of many plants, the outermost iron gate can be vaguely seen.

There was someone outside the iron gate, obviously far away, and the doors and windows were still closed, but Osamu Dazai could still hear the conversation clearly.

Osamu Dazai guessed that the magic of sound transmission was attached to the gate of the mansion, allowing the people in the mansion to catch the sound outside the gate.

Osamu Dazai had a delicate expression. He put down the spoon, got up and walked to the door, and opened it swiftly.

Stepping down the steps, passing through the lush plants, Osamu Dazai came to the door of the apartment with a smile, and saw the expected person.

Osamu Dazai looked at Fyodor and Nikolai outside the iron gate, and he was in a good mood.

Perhaps it was because he felt the joy of life and was looking at interesting people, so Osamu Dazai could understand Fyodor's pursuit of Akamatsu Ryu a little bit.

He elongated his tone: "I thought you should come too, but unfortunately, this time it's me first."

When Osamu Dazai and Ryu Akamatsu signed the magic contract, he specifically emphasized that during this year, only he can be Ryu Akamatsu's employer. If Ryu Akamatsu takes on other tasks, Osamu Dazai has the right to review and deny.

Of course, the task that Osamu Dazai denied must not involve Akamatsu Ryu's safety and magic development, otherwise Akamatsu Ryu could kick Dazai Osamu to do the task by himself.

When Fyodor saw Osamu Dazai, his expression remained unchanged.

As early as when he saw Nakahara Chuya, Fyodor judged that Osamu Dazai was hiding here in Akamatsuryu.

Fyodor said with a smile: "Is it good to have your neck cut off last night?"

Since Gogol swears that Osamu Dazai's neck was cut off, even if it was a play, Fyodor speculates that Osamu Dazai must have almost died, and the feeling must be ecstasy.

A cold light flashed in Dazai's eyes.

Yeah, how many times has he died since meeting Akamatsu Ryu?

Nikolai ignored Osamu Dazai, he just kept reaching out to touch the iron gate with a feeling of emotion.

"I can't get in, my coat is restricted, and I can't open the space."

Fyodor tried to reach out and pass through the railing between the iron doors: "Is it just a prison space?"

Nikolai nodded: "It seems so, Aisha has protected her home very tightly."

Fyodor: "It seems that magicians' homes should have similar protective barriers?"

He said this and looked at Osamu Dazai: "Where's Glasney?"

Although Osamu Dazai really wanted to kick the two people in front of him away, he thought about it, Fyodor must not have as much money as himself, and Akamatsu Ryu probably wouldn't talk to Fyodor, so it would be interesting to see Fyodor deflated thing.

So Osamu Dazai lazily said, "He should come down immediately."

Someone stayed at the door of his house for a long time, and of course Akamatsu Ryu noticed it.

Akamatsu Ryu looked down from the window of the study on the second floor, and happened to be able to see three people standing at the gate.

On the phone, Xiyana was still talking about how to arrest people with supernatural powers, but three people with supernatural powers were confronting each other inside and outside the iron gate of her house. Akamatsu Ryu didn't know what expression to make for a while.

He comforted his cousin with a few words, and after hanging up the phone, Akamatsu Ryu directly opened the door of the mansion.

When Akamatsu Ryu went down from the second floor, Fyodor and Nikolai were already in the hall.

Osamu Dazai was sitting next to the sofa, holding a plate of creamy mushroom soup in his hand. He didn't drink the soup, but just held it, which happened to cover half of his face, and the bandage on his forehead wrapped around one eye. At this moment, the black hair was scattered , even though Osamu Dazai was sitting in the living room, no one could see his expression.

He was like a black cat watching secretly, staring at Fyodor and Nikolai.

Akamatsu Ryu ignored Dazai Osamu, he smiled and asked the two to sit down: "Welcome, what can I do?"

Fyodor sat on the side of the sofa, he raised his eyes, and his amethyst-like pupils swept across Akamatsuru's face.

Fyodor didn't notice the feeling of hostility and ambiguous calculation. Considering Akamatsu Ryu's behavior pattern of directly tying A last night, Fyodor asked directly.

He said: "Nigolai and I were attacked just now, and your father came out personally as a bait. Of course, your father explained to us that it was the order of the monarch Julius. Did Nikolai and I add to you?" Are you in trouble?"

The smile on Akamatsu's face softened a little after hearing this: "Fortunately, I can handle it."

After a pause, Chimatsu asked Fyodor: "Do you know your current situation?"

Fyodor looked serious: "Is there a reason I don't know?"

Akamatsu Ryu glanced at the silent Dazai Osamu, and he said to Fyodor: "Since you know that the world is stitched up, you should also know what kind of existence you are in other worlds, right?"

Fyodor reacted very quickly: "So it turns out that I was wanted by the Clock Tower not because of my identity as a person with supernatural powers, but because of me in this world?"

Parallel world peers?

Akamatsu Ryu looked at Fyodor and Nikolai with pity. Speaking of which, they were also sympathetic to each other. Akamatsu Ryu himself caused the mess because of himself in a different world, and these two...

"You two are very famous here, and you are world-renowned great writers. Your works are sold all over the world and have countless fans. Although those works have disappeared under the action of the law because of the stitching of the world, it is a pity that magic Shiben is an ethnic group that is good at exploring the past, even if those words are forgotten, magicians will still remember them."

Akamatsu Ryu naturally leaked a very important piece of information, or he didn't think it was very important.

"You wrote a book called Crime and Punishment. It is said that there is a second book, but you died before you wrote it. Many people want to read the second book, so...you understand."

Fyodor of crime and punishment with supernatural power: "..."

Osamu Dazai couldn't help but whistled.

He said in a malicious tone, "Vigilaire, can I read the book Crime and Punishment?"

Maybe after watching Crime and Punishment, you can learn what Fyodor's ability is, haha!

Fyodor glanced at Osamu Dazai with a smile, his amethyst-like eyes were as cold as a knife.

Akamatsu shrugged: "I don't have literature books here, only the complete works of Shakespeare." The complete works of Shakespeare are almost the must-have books for all British people.

"But my cousin should have it?" Seeing Xiyana's excited look, she might be a fan of Fyodor, and then Akamatsu changed his voice: "But you can't see it."

Osamu Dazai was startled, and asked humbly, "Why can't I see it?"

"The mystery of the surface is dissipating rapidly. If you want to capture the traces of the past, you can only go underground. Most magicians' study rooms are underground. Your works should also be stored in a deeper underground labyrinth. There is no permission from the Bureau of Occult Anatomy. , even the monarch is not allowed to go underground."

Akamatsu told Fyodor: "Or you can go to a family of magicians with a long history. Such a magician must have a well-protected underground library. If the other party is still your fan, you can read the novel you wrote. .”

Nikolai asked curiously: "What about me? Did I also write something?"

"Dead souls?"

Akamatsu Ryu only heard Xiyana mention it, and he said: "I haven't seen it either, you can ask other magicians."

Fyodor suddenly asked Akamatsuru, "Did Dazai-kun write any books?"

Akamatsuru knew this, after all, he mentioned it in the magic engraving. He was about to say that he was disqualified in the world, when he heard Osamu Dazai say in a somewhat funny tone: "Love of the Dead! I published a book called Love of the Dead last year." Novel, if you like it, you can go to the bookstore and read it, I remember there is an English version."

Akamatsu Ryu was shocked: "English version? There is also an English version of that goofy novel?!"

Osamu Dazai said proudly: "My business is spread all over the world, and there are not only English versions, but also French versions!"

Nicholas sneered, "You didn't write that."

Of course Nikolai who came from another world knew that the book Love of the Dead was written by Ryu Akamatsu!

Fyodor also sneered: "Yes, Dazai-kun, haven't you thought about writing a book yourself?"

He doesn't believe that Osamu Dazai is not a pigeon!

Osamu Dazai sighed: "I'm busy with work, so I don't have time, but since you're looking forward to it so much, I do plan to publish another novel."

Akamatsu Ryu looked at Dazai Osamu in surprise: "Is the manuscript finished?"

Is it that fast?

Osamu Dazai said solemnly: "Yes, the story of Morin Taro and his six daughters and three apprentices."

The author has something to say:

Morin Taro This is a cultivation novel that Osamu Dazai commissioned Edgar Allan Poe to write...
