the world

This is the worst thing I have ever eaten.

Although I have never eaten preserved eggs before, I feel that the taste in my mouth has exceeded the scope of the ingredients.

How did Taki Wakaba hide the magic spirit in the dish? I didn’t see the existence of the magic spirit at all from the appearance of the preserved egg tofu, but the smell of the ingredients mixed with the taste of the magic spirit mixed with the taste of the food.

For example, it seems that the smell of fish and the smell of feet are mixed together to bring out the smell of feet to the extreme.

I, who had devoured thousands of curse spirits without vomit, fell to Taki Wakaba's handiwork.

"Sorry... I didn't expect it to be so unpalatable." Taki Ruoye showed an apologetic expression.

"It still works." I wiped my mouth with a tissue, "At least I don't think the curse spirit is so bad now."

"I'll try again." Taki Ruoye took out another magic ball from my pocket and walked into the kitchen.

This time it took her an hour to get out of the kitchen, and she held a white porcelain plate and placed it in front of me.

The magic ball was placed in the middle of the porcelain plate, it looked very small, and there was nothing else.

After experiencing the devastation just now, I feel that I can accept the taste of the curse spirit calmly, but what I get in my mouth is unbelievably sweet.

Sweet as a crepe made of clouds.

"...how did you do that?"

"The raw materials are cream, chocolate, flour, nuts, etc."

"...So it's not a curse spirit at all?"

The first time Taki Wakaba served me preserved egg tofu without traces of magic spirits, and the second time was a normal dessert that was completely in the shape of a magic spirit ball.

"Yes." Taki Ruoye took out the real magic ball and put it on the empty plate in front of me, "This is also a kind of desensitization therapy."

Later, Taki Wakaba cut the preserved egg and poured the sauce on it for me to eat, which made me verify again that the ingredients themselves are innocent, but they must not be mixed with the magic spirit.

"Luo Ye, how do you know that the curse spirit is bad? I haven't told anyone, have I?"

"Because you look up when you eat the curse spirit? It seems that you can't wait to let the curse spirit pass through your mouth. It is absolutely terrible." Taki Ruoye paused, "There was a time when I lost Taste."

"Did you get hurt?"

"I can't taste the original taste of anything I eat, and all the delicacies have become homogeneous in my eyes. But then it's fine, so now I always want to try a variety of delicacies."

"So at least I can get a taste of other things now."

If you only care about the smell of the mantra, will you ignore other smells?Because of its bitterness, other good flavors are forgotten.

If my heart is filled with only one emotion, will I do something bad...?

Since I met Taki Wakaba, I have a tacit understanding with her.

Perhaps this tacit understanding comes from my willingness to confess to her and the unsuccessful invitation.

When I felt that I was drifting away from everyone around me, Taki Wakaba came to my side.

Is this exactly correct?Still incorrect?

On Christmas Eve this year, Taki Wakaba and I received an assignment to exorcise the cursed spirits that appeared in an amusement park in Tokyo.

It was Christmas Eve, the streets were crowded with people and the traffic was blocked, so people in the amusement park could not be completely evacuated outside the park, and the area of ​​the tents was much smaller than before.

The area where the tents were set up included the artificial lake and the ferris wheel in the amusement park. The mantra was lying on the ferris wheel, turning over lazily.The Ferris wheel was still rotating with the support of electricity, and its bracket was pressed tight, making a creaking sound.

We spent 5 minutes on it but nothing to say about it.

"Before leaving, tell the park that the Ferris wheel is temporarily closed." Taki Wakaba and I took the tape of the staff next to the Ferris wheel, wrapped it around the tree trunk, pulled it around the Ferris wheel, and then put the "no entry" "The notice board was placed at the gate of the Ferris wheel's queuing area.

Although several legs of the ferris wheel are obviously bent, it is still shining and spinning slowly.

"Someone will be disappointed tonight." Taki Ruoye said looking at the Ferris wheel.

"After all, it's Christmas Eve, but there are other romantic places, right?" I asked, "There's still plenty of time, do you want to go somewhere else?"

Taki Wakaba and I sat on the Zhuanzhuan teacup, looking at each other with the beautiful music.

Because there are too many people in the amusement park tonight, there are people queuing up for almost every item, and the teacups are close to the parent-child playground area, so there are many fewer people.

"Ah~ The Ferris wheel is closed, what a pity." A couple passed by before turning around the teacups.

"Originally this gift was given to you when I wanted to make a Ferris wheel with you, but it's about the same now." The boy took out a small gift box from his arms.

"It's great now!" The girl suddenly looked at the sky, "It's snowing! It's so romantic! In fact, we are super lucky, right?"

"Although the Ferris wheel is not in operation, Christmas Eve with snowflakes is also great, right?" Taki Wakaba asked.

"It felt more like Christmas Eve."

"Jay, I've made up my mind. I won't join your plan, and I hope you can give up your plan."

"It's ok."

"Will you continue?"

"Yeah." I replied softly, "It's just that this impulse is a little weaker than when I just surged up."

"That future doesn't make sense."

"That kind of future has never appeared, how do you know it's impossible? I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I've thought about various methods and approaches, and I've already chosen."

"Ordinary people will give birth to conjurers, and conjurers may also give birth to people without conjuration talents. This is an unstoppable killing." Taki Ruoye said, "You want to eliminate non-conjurers to achieve no conjuration spirits. The world that exists. There are good people and bad people among non-magicians, and there are good people and bad people among magicians. Don’t choose that extreme way to achieve your ideals.”

Taki Wakaba opened her bag, "What makes me feel troublesome is that you know what I said. It is because this is a future that has not been realized, and it is possible to realize it, that you stubbornly want to try and pursue it. .Conjurers often end badly because of the public’s ignorance and hard battles. A large number of non-magicians disappear into this world without even knowing the reason for their own death because of the curse spirit. You should not treat non-magicians as Put it together with the curse spirit."

"Is it okay to maintain the status quo? Doesn't it matter if you die because of the ordinary people you protect?"

"This is my Christmas present to you." Taki Wakaba took out a book from her bag, "I think you should read it."

I took it and looked at the cover.

"Marxist Philosophy"

"For those of us who are sitting here twirling our teacups and having fun on Christmas Eve, the world isn't that bad right now? I want to protect the beauty of the present."

"...Let's go back."

When I listened to Taki Wakaba's words, I had already lost.

When I was about to establish my new creed, Taki Wakaba didn't let the flag be planted.If I still stay in that village, I won't hesitate to think about my creed again and again, right?So, when she was shaking me, I took it.I would stand steadfast in my creed, but Taki Wakaba filled my heart with other things, making me occasionally forget why I did what I did, and forget that I was right.

"Have you been tired all this time?" Taki Wakaba and I walked on the street on a snowy night without an umbrella, looking at the dimly lit Tokyo.

"Fortunately, I don't really need sleep." Taki Wakaba replied.

"Is it part of your personality to do things without saying a word?"

"...You knew already?"

"I'm talking about why my work has been reduced a lot since you came. You have been negotiating with other conjurers to share my work, right? Glass said that you always go out to work at night, and you can't sleep almost all night .”

"...Glass has betrayed."

"I bought the supper when you came back and put it in the refrigerator, and drink less wine."

"...Thank you."

"Is that why you don't want me to find out?"

"Of course, it's best not to be discovered. Fighting the spirit all the time is in a single environment, and I hope you can feel something more."

"It's 'If my heart is filled with only one emotion, will something bad happen'."

"correct."

"Don't go to other magicians in the future, wouldn't it be faster to talk to me?"

"it is good."

I thought, after I go back, I can talk to Wujo Wu again.

"Let's buy something, Nitro is still in the high school." Taki Wakaba said, and I walked into the department store where Christmas activities were held.

Taki Wakaba bought high-alcohol festive wine, which made me feel powerless. She also bought a bunch of vegetables and meat, saying that she would go back and make sukiyaki.

Gojo Satoru was also there when he returned to the high school.

"Hi, Jie! You're staying with Luo Ye again."

"We are partners, isn't it normal to be together?"

"We used to be partners, right? Do you think it's better for me or Luo Ye?"

The only one who can ask such a question in person is Gojo Satoshi.

"Of course I and Luo Ye are the best partners!" Gojo Satoru said the answer himself.

"...Your technique doesn't need Taki Wakaba's assistance at all, does it?"

"Last time when he was doing a mission, he knocked over a few non-magicians. If Taki Ruoye was not there to rescue him, he would be in trouble." Jiarui Nitzi said after taking a sip of his wine.

"Isn't it in the account?"

"Correct."

"This is all about cleaning up the mess for you, Wu."

Although I, Gojo Satoru, and Jiarui Nishizi are all teachers, Taki Ruoye is still a first-year student, but what she does in the high school is almost the same as a teacher, and it is estimated that she can be directly promoted to a teacher after finishing her studies in three years.

"Although it was sudden, I want to enter high school." Taki Ruoye said suddenly.
