[Comprehensive] Demon Fox Hiding Horse

Conan didn't respond.

He seemed to be very calm, even though Kurama had already issued an "invitation", he still did not turn around from the corner of the corridor.

This made Natori, who was stunned by Kurama suddenly appearing in the form of a demon fox without warning, raised his hand and touched his nose somewhat uncomfortably——

How does he feel...that a shining adult like himself is not as good as a child?

This sudden pain directly into the knee can be a little more intense!

The big star who didn't know that his current state could be summed up as "until I took an arrow in the knee" was a little depressed, but at the same time he readjusted his mood because of this.

He felt that he could not lose to a little boy no matter what!

Stunning his chest, Natori didn't know why his chest was suddenly full of fighting spirit! (==)

But soon, his (I think) very brave and invincible state was pierced by the demon fox opposite with a smile that was so evil that it seemed to be against the sky——

Silver-haired, golden-eyed, three shikigami exuding names all over the body, the terrifying and monstrous big monster who almost couldn't help but want to kneel down and surrender Suddenly, there appeared a figure that was quite familiar to Natori, but after thinking about it, it was actually his human form in the opposite party—the soft and elegant expression that one often sees on Kurama's face in the image of the red-haired boy. Smile!

However, this kind of expression appeared on the face of the Tibetan horse in the form of a demon fox, but unexpectedly, it did not make people feel that the aura was out of place at all, and even faintly...

Feeling the involuntary rapid heartbeat in his chest, Natori's consciousness went blank for a moment, and all he could see was the smile on Yaohu's face that was so beautiful that people couldn't look directly at it, and those eyes that became even more beautiful after being stained with the smile. Mesmerizing golden eyes...

"This, this is definitely a foul!"

Natori was a little confused, but also complained angrily in his heart.

"This guy is really a demon fox..."

Seeing the other party suddenly stepping forward and walking towards him step by step, Natori tried his best to mobilize the strength of his whole body to move around, but found that in front of the other party's smile, he was already soft-handed...

"Knowing how to use racial talent is also a kind of ability and wisdom, kid. You still... have something to learn."

When passing by him, it seemed that he heard the deep resentment and complaints in Natori's heart, Yaohu turned his head and said to him with a smile on his face.

"..."

Natori froze again.

Why do you feel that the other party's personality seems to have some weird, uh...mutations?

It is obvious that the human form is gentle and refined, and the fox form is cold and proud, but why in the blink of an eye, it has become an evil, charming and domineering man who puts his black belly and evil tastes on the surface?

This, this does not fit the setting!

The well-known actor named Mr. Zhou Yi wept silently from the bottom of his heart.

...but wait.

I always feel that he seems to have forgotten something because he complained too much... Ah! !

Natori turned his head abruptly, looking in the direction the demon fox was leisurely pacing toward—

Because of the relationship with Natsume, that gentle child has repeatedly hinted that his identity as Kurama is "not simple", so when Natori decided to come to Kurama for a showdown and discuss the possibility of cooperation, he guessed that even if The other party showed his true body in front of him, so he shouldn't do anything excessive to him.

Because he can see that the other party really cares about Natsume just like himself, and takes care of him as a junior or even a junior, so the other party should not hurt the friends Natsume recognizes.

However, this does not mean that a big monster like him will be so polite to other humans!

Although the opponent in human form has a gentle personality and a good temper, always smiling and making people feel very easy to get along with, but Natori has a subconscious wariness and distrust of monsters, and still cannot completely trust these things shown by the opponent.

So now that person ignores him and goes directly to the place where the little detective is hiding...

His expression suddenly became solemn, and he wanted to stop the other party, but found that both himself and his shikigami had lost the ability to move freely under the suppression of the majestic and majestic monster, Natori twitched the corner of his mouth, In the end, I couldn't bear the shame to really ask people, "Did you do this evil spirit leak on purpose?".

Kurama quickly reached the corner where Conan was hiding.

He stopped and stood in front of Conan.

The little detective maintained the standard detective thinking with one arm on his chest and one hand on his chin, standing motionless in the shadow cast by the wall.

Kurama stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes.

……no response.

Seeing this, the demon fox was stunned.

He guessed that after seeing his demon fox form, Conan's reaction would definitely not be very calm, but like now...

Leaning down slightly, looking at the black-haired little detective who kept his original posture and stood there as if he had been cast with a holding spell, Kurama blinked, and suddenly... wanted to laugh.

——Young man, your reaction is a bit strange =w=

"Is the impact really that big?"

He whispered to himself, and once again stretched out his hand to shake in front of the boy's eyes.

...still no response.

The demon fox can't stand still now.

"……puff."

He lowered his head, and the two silver fox ears standing on top of his hair trembled slightly along with his thin but powerful shoulders, completely revealing the fact that his master was silently laughing at the moment, and made his worried face Natori, who had no choice but to stay where he was, felt relieved, and at the same time felt a deep sense of powerlessness in the vicissitudes of life——

"Hey, I said you..."

The level of bad taste really can't be worse, okay!Is it so fun to bully children...

"Well, it's interesting."

He straightened up, as if he heard the question in Natori's heart, the silver-haired handsome fox turned his head and smiled at him.

"Because... you should really see the kid's expression."

——As if the world collapsed in an instant, it was full of disbelief and contradictions, and seemed to be struggling with the "truth of the world" and "the truth that I agreed with".

"I've been looking forward to how he will react when he realizes what kind of world he is in."

Stretching out his arms to hug Bai Tuanzi who jumped down from his shoulders and slipped into his arms, the demon fox pinched his little ears softly, watched the little guy raise his head and smiled sweetly at him, and spoke briskly. keep talking.

"But I didn't expect his real reaction to be so...cute."

"It was a lot more fun than I expected."

"How strong is the ability of human beings to bear? When the true face of the world is greatly contrary to what I have always believed in, then, which one should I believe in, the self of the world and the self I know?"

"Perhaps the more confident they are in themselves and the more confident they are in their understanding of the world, the less likely they are to make judgments easily at this time."

"So, the kid doesn't seem to be able to come to a conclusion until now."

Turning his head, his eyes seemed to penetrate the deep night, and the demon fox looked at the other end of the corridor where the lights were not lit: "So, what about you?"

Natori heard the words and immediately turned his gaze to the corridor that the fox was looking at, and under the joint gaze of the two, a group of familiar teenagers slowly approached in the area covered by the light...

"We don't know the conclusion yet."

The handsome boy with short iris-blue hair raised the corners of his lips in the night, revealing a soft and quiet smile.

"Could you please come and tell us?"

"—the...truth of this world."

***

Of course, Kurama didn't rashly expose his real body just to see Conan's reaction after the world view was shattered.

In fact, he "temporarily" decided to take his three little cute animals out to soak in the hot spring in the middle of the night, and it wasn't really "temporary"——

Before going out, actually...he received a communication from Yuko.

When I asked the count about the creation god Mokona before, the count once said to Kurama that even if he didn’t get any information from him, there should be some progress on Yuko’s side in the near future. The horse has always remembered it clearly.

But after a period of time, there was no news from Yuko's side. Gradually, Yaohu was no longer as anxious as before, but adjusted his mood and continued to wait leisurely for Yuko to find clues.

It's just that he didn't expect that the clues would not come when he stayed at home all day with nothing to do. So many incidents just happened here, but Yuko's clues over there were finally found!

It's just that Miss Witch's expression at that time was very subtle, and the information she gave was similar to what she got from the count...

"So you saw the earl again. Why? This time you went to the original world where the earl is?... Tsk! What luck."

"About the God of Creation... yes, the information I can get is not much different from what the earl said, and it is even true that because I am no longer considered to be in the star world, I am not sure about the dark orbit hidden in the star world. It’s not as easy to detect as it used to be.”

"This matter itself is full of doubts, but the end of the journey that all the lines of fate point to is what you and I hope for."

"That's something I've observed in the first place."

"So I did provide you with a lot of help, because from you, I saw the hope of the end of endless fate-don't look at me like that, idiot!"

"The so-called 'termination' does not mean demise."

"The endless end represents the arrival of a new life..."

"Your purpose and the process you must go through to achieve it will not be affected in any way because you go to the world He created."

"I think at this stage, we just need to be sure of that."

——This is the conclusion Yuko finally came to.

Although there are still many things that cannot be explained, Kurama must admit that Yuko is right.

They just need to make sure that the Creator God has no malice towards Zangma, and the fact that what Zangma goes to is created by the other party will not have any impact on his purpose, and it will not cause any harm to Zangma himself. Any harm, so... would be enough.

"But there's another point."

The witch said this at the end of the communication.

"It's a hint I found by accident from the fate of the stars."

——This is why Kurama went to the hot spring immediately after finishing the communication, and intentionally revealed his true identity on the way.

"The waves."

...what exactly does this refer to?

Whether it is Yuko or Kurama, in the absence of follow-up prompts, it is impossible to make a final conclusion.

It's just that Yaohu thinks that in such a mixed world that can be said to be created by nature (==), the only hint Yuko got seems... easy to achieve?

——So, the innocent(?) boy Conan suffered.

But at this moment, looking at the group of tennis teenagers who are full of persistence and stubbornness...

The demon fox sighed silently.

"This was originally... something that shouldn't involve you?"

He whispered helplessly, then turned his head and quickly exchanged glances with Natori.
