K-type Mage

The hot spring hotel has turned off the lights, the rainy night sky is thick and gloomy, and the sound of raindrops forms a rhythm.

When the piercing pain broke out, Yuan Shen was holding hot tea and preparing to drink it.In the next instant, his eyes suddenly darkened and he fell headfirst.

The teacup was rolled away on the ground, the back of his hand was scorched red by the hot water, the black-haired young man curled up on the tatami, his body trembling faintly, his face paled quickly visible to the naked eye, cold sweat oozes out, and his fingernails are about to break the palm of his hand .

He couldn't even express the pain in his voice.

It's hard to say where it hurts more, it's not a sensation spreading from somewhere, but a sudden, relentless concept—

The gap widened.

Everything around him is far away at this moment, the sound of the rustling rain has returned to silence, and the young man curled up on the tatami seems to have fallen into another world.

The darkness in front of me seems to hide the eternal silence of the ages, and the treacherous mythical creatures are watching behind the cold stars, and the sticky and heavy loneliness strikes, drowning the tiny consciousness together with the pain.

Yuan took a deep breath.Trying to break free from these annoying things, the severe pain subsided into a persistent dull pain, persistently reminding him of a fact.

The connection between the projection and the ontology has gone wrong.

The reason lies in the stubborn seed in the spiritual realm.

Nyarlathotep did it.

"..." He blinked silently at the ceiling, and slowly recovered his breathing.

Unbelievable behavior.He sat up on the tatami, ignored the redness of his hands, picked up the teacup, and removed the tea that had soaked into the fabric.

After a series of movements, the cold sweat on the forehead became more.It seemed that in the previous pain, he had completely lost his energy.

Why not keep watching?This is meddling - what kind of game, cheating players.

He thought about this question inexplicably, turned off the light, crawled back into the bed and covered himself with a quilt, and stared blankly at the dark ceiling.

Dim light shines into the room from the sliding door of the Japanese room.

Yuan Shen closed his eyes.Sleep isn't a necessity right now, it's just a routine of sorts.

He is still thinking.

Nyarlathotep has always understood people's hearts, and Yuan Shen never doubted his "understanding" in His eyes.Although I don't understand where the other party's bad taste of even being willing to act as a close friend for a hundred years comes from—maybe the hundred years is really just a flick of a finger to him—but he is indeed "understood" and "seen through".

It is a little boastful to say that even if Yuan Shen thinks it is impossible and unable to understand Nyarlathotep’s essence and true thoughts, he can still vaguely know what actions the other party will make—as long as he returns the [Yuen] The avatar appeared before him.

[You En]'s behavior has always been within the scope of "exploration". It can be said that he repeatedly jumped horizontally and spread his wings on the edge of Yuanshen's bottom line.

——It is something that Yuanshen can tolerate.Even, [You En] is false, and now he can accept it.

But this attempt to wake up the main body will not work.

Yuanshen sinks his consciousness into the inner layer of the spiritual realm.

The eternal starry night is as bright as ever.The black coffin seemed to be a stain embedded in it.

The black-haired young man leaned over to touch the coffin, his palm pressed against the coffin lid, it was bitingly cold.He was fascinated by the coffin engraved with numerous curse marks, inside was his sleeping body with closed eyes, like a sleeping beauty who could not wake up for a long time.

"...Isn't that good." He muttered, and he didn't know who he was talking to, "Memory is connected to the projection of thoughts, and consciousness is also connected, but it's just...feelings."

He doesn't like the darkness here, so he created a projection, and his consciousness is clearly "source deep".

Just tweaked the details a little.An innocuous, insignificant... little detail.

Yuan Shen insisted that he was a human being from the beginning to the end.Of course, he will not be shaken by Naia's language. The only thing is that the peaceful daily life he is indulging in at this moment is not "false stability".

He had already woken up from his dream, and the projection and descent were both chosen by himself.

——Including the divided "emotions".

The innocuous details are not the reduction of physical fitness and strength, nor the expansion of the perception of pain, but the emotions.

Of course the seven emotions and six desires exist, but only a third or a quarter of the original?Anyway, it is very superficial, and negative emotions are deliberately suppressed.Rationality is greater than sensibility, and it can be called lazy. This is Yuanshen's current situation.

Therefore, Yuan Shen will not be angry at other people's temptations, and he can quickly accept [Yuen's] deception.

That's why I say——

Before the main body had to lift the coffin board and climb out, he figured it out on the projection.

He half-kneeled in front of the coffin, leaning his forehead against the eaves of the coffin, and sighed softly.

"The ending that can't be turned back is even sadder than imagined."

"...It really hurts."

***

Crow keenly sensed that something was wrong.

"...Did you have a nightmare?" It asked hesitantly, looking at the young man who put on his coat.I feel that this person's face is almost pale compared to last night.

Yuan Shen with a calm expression thought about it for a while, then laughed, and said, "That's right, after all, there are annoying guys watching over him, so I feel very unhappy."

"Let's go, I'm going to Lake Ashi with Guizhi today." He turned around, "It's said that sea bass is delicious."

Crow, who didn't enter the hot spring hotel at night, tilted his head in confusion, not understanding why the other party suddenly became unhappy after one night.

This question was answered after it met two people who came out of the hot spring hotel together.

—So you still followed here? !It's too brazen!This kind of excessive behavior, no matter who will be angry!

However, most people have long been so angry that they quit their jobs, and this person can continue to take the children to see the scenery because he has a good temper and patience--awesome.

...in various senses.All three.

Crow couldn't help thinking about whether the three parties were equilateral triangles or isosceles triangles.

The final conclusion is: No matter what shape it is, the source depth is completely surrounded.Hey guys, is this guy a giant catnip?Those attracted are not human beings.

"Mr. Yuan and Natsume-kun are indeed in Hakone." Xia Youjie handed over the photo, "It looks like he is traveling with his girlfriend and their children..." Even though he was surprised when he heard the news, he would not be surprised when he recounted the news to others. Still choked up, "It is said that the woman looks very beautiful."

The photo was taken at a long distance. Among the crowd, the young man and the boy stood holding the parasol, and the other sat on the bench to receive the marshmallows. They looked very harmonious.

"That girl was not photographed." He said, frowning slightly. "The parasol blocked it... Maybe it was intentional. The person who took the photo has now been sent to the psychiatric department."

"Hey... on purpose." Gojo Satoru picked it up and took a look, "Why did you take such a big parasol?"

"It rained heavily afterwards." Xia Youjie replied calmly, "So I can confirm that Mr. Yuan did not do it."

These photos were taken in Hakone three days ago.

"I don't think there's any doubt about it, Jay," said the conjurer who put the photo back, "How can Rotten Orange dare to think about anything?"

"Obviously they have also collected information. The existence of Mr. Yuan is indeed considered|time|bomb|bomb|." Xia Youjie flipped through the stack of incident reports that previous believers and colleagues stuffed, and felt bald for a while, "These Usually, it can only be regarded as a mental problem caused by excessive pressure, how did it become like this?"

"That's right, that's right, I'm so tired." Gojo Satoru also forced himself to sit up straight, and put out the share he brought over, "Why do you want to relieve your worries before May is here?" He rubbed the bridge of his nose , "It happened that Qihai went to see Huiyuan—otherwise, it would be great to let him work."

"Senior that is not worthy of respect, Enlightenment." The curse master said, thinking that the cute junior was a little lost, he was always glad that the other party was able to survive, and he hated those rotten oranges in the world of magic more and more—— Half of the mission failure rate and death rate of conjurers is due to their stupid decisions and ideas.

"It's exercise!"

"totally not."

"By the way, Satoru, how is the situation in Yokohama?"

"It's not a big deal. Last time Mr. Yuan and Qihai went around there, it seems that they reached an agreement with the local snake over there again."

"Hmph, the organization of supernatural beings over there..."

Wujo Wu glanced at him and said, "You seem to have a connection with there?"

"A foreign intelligence dealer." Xia Youjie said, "has an unexplained interest in Yokohama—probably." He recalled his brief contact with the other party, "An annoying guy." No matter what he does, he will be guessed bad feeling.

Gojo Satoru isn't very interested in people, but he has a lot of ideas when it comes to abilities and spells. He said, "The people with abilities don't like spells. How did you get in touch?"

"It's my initiative. Yokohama has something like a business license for supernatural powers—it's quite valuable to learn."

"Because I'm a Curse Master, so it's not easy to go to the official... You can tell me. No matter how I say it, I'm the famous "strongest". "

"You were very busy then."

"Where... well, a little bit."

Xia Youjie sorted out the most critical information and pushed it to the middle of the table: "That's all. Let's solve it while you and I have time."

"So you made these on purpose while Mr. Yuan was out playing?"

"Who knows. I think it's the guy who looked so invisible before."

……

Two days ago, because of a strange suicide case, "Window" discovered the abnormal increase in the suicide rate in Japan recently.

Suicides are as usual before they die, but once they are discovered, there are always plausible reasons. There are homeless people, widowed old people, teenagers out of school, and unhappy families—in short, it is ordinary life that makes people completely unhappy. Poor fellows who wonder if one day they will choose to die.

But after such a number appeared and summed up in a short period of time, it became extremely shocking.

After getting the news, the high-level executives in the magic circle thought about the unrecorded super-level magic spirit. After the report was sent, they asked Gojo Satoru to ask "Yuan Shen"-suspecting that this dangerous person did it.

There is nothing wrong with Yuan Shen's identity. Obviously, this person has taken care of the front and back through some means, so he was able to adopt Natsume Takashi.

Gojo Wu and Xia Youjie exchanged opinions and agreed that compared with Yuan Shen, You En, who hides his head and shows his tail every time he appears on stage, is aboveboard but has no image is more dangerous and cunning.

Because this person only appeared in front of Yuanshen, it was not clear what purpose he had.

This side is rushing about abnormal things, and Yuanshen's side——

"...Is this why you came to hold me back?" He stood in mid-air, looking at the huge crack that was one person wide above the endless blue ocean, and asked Ewan in a complicated tone.

[Swollen Daughter] left a day ago and didn't know where she went. Yuan Shen didn't bother to care about this incarnation. Having [Yuen] is enough to make people headache.

He held the thought indifferently, and soon realized that the world had changed in some way.

So he came to the sky above the ocean.

The time-space rift that previously connected the other worlds of the restraint system and other worlds was blocked by Yuanshen. The form of this rift at the beginning was not normal, and its volume was larger than its predecessors... What it can bring is also That's more.

The young man standing on the other side rolled his eyes and smiled, and admitted it directly, and said, "What kind of world do you think will be merged this time?"

"..." Yuan Shen was silent for a while, "You think I have the same "God's perspective" as you. He twitched the corner of his mouth, "Fuck you, idiot." "

That's too late.He thought, [Yuen] added an anchor point, and he still has no ability to divide the world.

"Actually, it's too late." You En said, his tone was soft, and his eyes were looking at him with a light feather-like smile, "As long as you open your eyes, everything will be solved, deep."

Yuan Shen: "..."

Hey, you are quite stubborn.

He remained silent, not even bothering to put on an expression of disgust and rejection.

"It's so ruthless, Shen." The other party didn't feel embarrassed when he didn't answer, and smiled, "Why don't you open your eyes? As long as you wake up, these things are nothing—or are you afraid?"

"—you are qualified to be a higher being. Did I say that?"

"I said it." Yuan Shen raised his eyes to look at him calmly, his voice was flat, "Your current behavior is not "respecting my decision". "

"Do you still believe me?" You En pretended to be surprised.

"...No." The traverser sighed, seemingly full of disgust and helplessness towards this guy, but in fact, the feeling of burnout came from his bones, "What do you want from me?"

he asked.
