[Comprehensive] Professional Blocker

It just snowed yesterday, and the clouds and haze that had pervaded for many days cleared away, revealing the blue dome.The winter sun is not very hot, but it is very bright. The warm yellow platinum lightly spreads on the holly trees in the courtyard, reflecting the dark green needles in verdant green. In front of the window of the living room, overlooking the vibrant scenery, he thought with a wry smile.

After returning to the S4 settlement from Academy Island, Munakata fell into a more busy follow-up work. He lost the "four" kings in one day. The impact of the incident was unprecedented. He stayed up all night non-stop and rushed out of the report , but suddenly felt a little tired, and slackly pushed the time to meet the King of Gold until tomorrow, while lamenting helplessly that "willfulness is really addictive", turned around and left the window, and went downstairs.

After going through such an incident, it can't break the law of S4's morning exercise under Qing Wang's command.Munakata stood aside and watched quietly, the sound of sword swinging on the playground suppressed the sound, he suddenly felt a little dazed, as if nothing happened, Shiina Yu was still one of them, although he was always taciturn, but he would not hesitate to take it seriously Say "Shiina, draw your sword".

But soon, he was withdrawn from the sensibility that hurt the spring and the autumn.It's not static, but under righteousness, anyone's life is like a feather, and nothing can be changed, even if it is a king, it is no different.

The aura around him was calm and dignified, Munakata calmly pushed his glasses, and decided to meet the King of Gold later, when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of the listless Yoshitō Fortitude from the corner of his eye.

After the morning exercise, the reference room of S4 General Affairs Division.

Shanjo squatted resolutely on the steps in front of the door, surrounded by problem children who often came to play, and a few other people. At this moment, they all showed embarrassment, looking worriedly at the white cat nested in a small ball on the ground.The weather is so cold, but Qing has been guarding here for a whole night. Even though Shanjo wrapped him in a blanket, he is now listless from the cold, unable to open his eyes, and still stubbornly refuses all those who want to take him back to the house. Behavior.

"What should I do?" Ri Gaoxiao asked with his head downcast.

Shanjo's brows furrowed even tighter, and he put his palm on the kitten's head smoothly, "That guy won't come back again, Qing, we won't wait, okay?"

Qing is a very strange cat. No matter how hungry she is, she only eats the food she hunted or the food given by Li You and the people appointed by Li You. Especially keen, when they are being bullied or are about to be bullied, they will stand in front of them and meow fiercely at the enemy, even if that person is other animals who run away when they see it, even people who want to run away ,No exception.

At this moment, the kitten avoids the touch, silently resists and struggles to move aside, the exhausted appearance makes everyone worried, and the gloomy atmosphere spreads in an instant, as if returning to the place where Shiina Yu died. At that moment, Mr. Shiina, who was taciturn and indifferent, but always patiently entertained them when they came to eat, and who was strong, reliable and trustworthy in battle, had left forever.But it was no longer the feeling of unreality that was empty at the time, but the real sadness.

The crowd who didn't know what else to do fell silent for a while, and then they heard Munakata Reishi's voice, "Oh, it seems that something bad happened."

Only then did everyone turn around as if waking up from a dream, "Director?"

The low air pressure just now was replaced by tension in an instant. They reflexively made way for Munakata Reiji, watched Zhuoran's man walk up to Qing and squatted down, and said blankly, "He is dead." Leng's voice was calm, as if he was following the scriptures, "Are you stupid enough to want to accompany him?"

Such a straightforward statement seemed to press a certain switch, and the dying kitten frowned immediately, stood up staggeringly, and its dim blue pupils were finally lit up again by angry flames, and barked at Reiji Munakata Grinning his teeth and letting out a threatening low cry, he rushed forward with unsteady steps, his sharp claws severely scratched the back of Munakata's hand in front of his knee——

"Director!" "Qing!"

The sudden bloodshed finally completely broke the stagnant status quo, but Munakata Reiji simply raised his hand and regained control of the situation.He lowered his eyes and quietly met his sapphire-like pupils, and stared at each other in silence like this. After a while, he saw the kitten's taut body gradually loosened, and the sad water in the cat's eyes disappeared in a flash. , drooping his ears dejectedly, walked to Munakata's side silently, holding the man's scratched hand with two paws, and lightly licked his fingers.

It’s as if they are licking each other’s wounds——Sanjo thought in a trance.

……

At noon that day, Zongxiang went to the Yuzhu Pagoda of Qibuhu to meet with Dajue on Guochang Road.

The King of Gold, who usually showed a wary attitude towards him habitually, completely ignored him before he spoke first, and just looked at Weissman's wax-like body in a transparent coffin, abnormally spoke first today.

"That subordinate of yours is really an arrogant man." Standing upright in the huge grand space, the wrinkled old man stated in an indifferent voice, "Then, let me hear how you plan to deal with his aftermath." Bar."

"Didn't you already have an idea?" Reji Munakata smiled lightly, "It was you who made the deal with him without telling me, and you should be responsible for the aftermath."

"Are you asking for a crime?"

"It's my disrespect for you to have such an illusion." Munakata Reishi bowed slightly without being humble, then stood upright again and said calmly, "I just want to talk openly with you. I should know, but was completely It's just something to hide."

Qingming's indifference and unshakable absolute self-confidence, even if the man standing opposite is polite and courteous, what is presented in front of his eyes is the almost arrogant fearlessness of his own responsibility and established death, Guochang Road Dajue stared at the young King Qing, "You are lucky enough, King Qing."

As No.1 who truly controls the lifeline of the country's economy, it is naturally impossible to negotiate face-to-face transactions with him so easily.The attribute of the King of Gold is "discovery talent", and his weather-beaten eyes can see the trajectory of fate, so that day, when Li You just arrived at the foot of the Yuzhu Pagoda, he was taken directly to Dajue on Guochang Road by the "rabbit" of the Gold Clan before.

Inside the Japanese-style door is a grand hall that doesn’t quite match it. The surrounding furnishings are radiant under the influence of the power of gold. The legendary stone plate is inlaid in the center of the crystal-paved floor. Mysterious and mysterious, several zigzag veins extend from the edge, connecting the round platforms of different colors at the end—that is the specific position arranged by the stone plate for each king, and the black round platform flashes suddenly when Li Youfu just stepped into this space , indicating the initial resonance between the soul and the stone plate.

He stood on the round platform, black light spread under his feet, and an unformed great sword wrapped in black mist appeared above his head—it was the symbol of the unawakened king.

"It's the first time that two kings of the same attribute were chosen to guard the stone plate." Seeing everything in his eyes, the Gold King said in a calm and steady tone, "I want to know your origin."

Li You didn't answer immediately, he looked at the old man without hesitation, his slender body stood upright, "I heard that your friend, the first king Adolf K. Weisman studied the stone plate in order to give Human beings bring happiness."

As soon as the words fell, the King of Gold snorted coldly, "It's just that frivolous man's self-righteous delusion." He paused, and looked at Li You again with majestic eyes, "What on earth are you trying to say. "

"Even so, you have never given up on the research on the stone disk." Li You was unmoved, "Whether the sword of Damocles is indestructible, I think this is a subject that you are very interested in."

The dark side derived from the powerful power of the stone plate is not just the sword, but the sword is the most obvious by-product. If the sword of Damocles on the head of the king no longer exists, perhaps there is no need to worry about the destruction like Kagutsu crater Sexual destruction, this is also the result pursued by the Golden Clan who have been studying the stone plate. The old man on the opposite side was slightly stunned, and the sharp sense of oppression was suddenly cut off for a moment, but only this second of emotion was enough for Li You to decide. Toss the chips.

"I want to make a deal with you. It is a very dangerous act, but if it is really completed, it may be of great benefit to your research process."

The wise old man's eyes moved slightly, and his sharp eyes analyzed the man in front of him inch by inch, "Tell me your plan."

Chosen by fate and governed by fate, the power given by the stone plate to the king is absolute. Therefore, the black king whose attribute is "destruction" should have the ability to devour everything, even the stone plate is no exception.

However, how will such fierce resistance be punished by the stone plate that gives the king the right to control his fate, for example, because he destroyed another king's sword, causing his own Weisman deviation to exceed the critical value——

"Unrealistic delusions." The King of Gold stared deeply at the young face opposite him, and suddenly thought with some emotion that he seemed to have had this kind of fearless courage decades ago, so when his friends boarded the When he was the only one left on the airship, he was able to bring the stone plate back to study without hesitation, thinking that this power is controllable, "The unexpected consequences cannot be borne by your strength."

"But I will stand here, which is the best bargaining chip." Li You said such arrogant words in a calm and cold voice, "No matter what happens, as long as the soul connected to the stone plate is cut off in time, there will be no problem Let’s go.” When the soul disappears, all traces of existence disappear completely, and the so-called destined punishment also ends because of the loss of the object of coronation.

For Li You, the idea of ​​destroying Zhou Fangzun's sword was just a momentary thought. However, in this world, such a thought is really scary. The object he wants to destroy involves the stone plate, and there is no "destruction" "The desire could be stronger than that.The Golden Clan's decades-long research has still failed to fully understand the mystery of the stone plate, but the stone plate looks complicated at first glance, but it has a very simple law, and this time it is proved by the man standing in front of it.

"...I see." The old man sighed slightly.

Under the condition that the Black King exists and he has been accepted into the Blue Clan, he will still be selected by Shipan, perhaps because this person's soul is too dazzling.

"The only thing you want to destroy is the sword of Damocles."

"That's right." In any case, Li You's original intention was just to save the lives of Munakata Reishi and Zhou Fangzun, and it was an unexpected and unexpected development that he would come to this point.The object of destruction is not the stone plate, not only because the stone plate is the source of maintaining the world, once it is destroyed, the consequences are unpredictable. "Power is always a double-edged sword, and it needs to be used reasonably by the right people."

It is more because this is the path chosen by that person, "In my eyes, Munakata Reji is that kind of person, so I want to do my best to walk along with him."

……

After that, when Munakata returned to Tsubaki Gate from Nanagamado, he heard the news that Ao quietly disappeared.

At such a busy moment, I suddenly want to drink, definitely not because the guy’s cat ran away——Looking at the liquid shaking in the wine glass, Munakata Reji smiled indifferently, “What kind of person really has what kind of cat, what do you say Well, Zhou Fang."

After the Battle of Xueyuan Island, the Red King died, but Zhou Fangzun was still alive, and continued to walk on as an ordinary person, or he could respond to the connection of the stone plate and become the Red King again. Li You exchanged his life for such a luxurious choice.

"...Hmph." The man beside him who was still lying lazily let out a breath through his nose, "It's completely different."

The man who keeps saying that fetters will become an obstacle, but in the end he is willing to pay such a high price for such an obstacle, interpreting the inconsistency vividly and vividly - read the meaning accurately from Zhou Fangzun's vague answer, Munakata suddenly remembered that not-so-good first meeting in a trance.

Because he has been different since he was a child, he has very few friends, maybe it can be said that he has no, but because he hates rough and disorderly things, he doesn't care much about this, and the result is that he is attacked by a group of people who don't understand him , Forcibly blocked in a dark alley.The injury on his foot really caused a certain restraint. After beating all those people unconscious, he couldn't move no matter what.

That seemed to be the most embarrassing moment Munakata Reiji could remember, but he was hit by Yu Shiina.Since he didn't want to cause trouble for his relatives living in the slums, he could only choose to be carried home by him, and this entangled relationship began.

At first glance, Yu Shiina appears to be an ordinary person with facial paralysis, reticent, indifferent, and unreasonable. Munakata really discovered the difference in him during the days when he often went to KARMA. The sense of existence is so strong that it is difficult to ignore it no matter what. As long as Munakata is still sitting in the shop, the milk tea in the cup in front of him will never be empty and will always maintain a suitable temperature. The illusion of paying attention and being well taken care of, as if there is nothing to worry about in front of this person, and you can do what you want quietly and casually.

Such contradictions and contrasts, coupled with some things that happened during that time, prompted him to question his character in front of Yu Shiina, but he didn't want to get such an answer.It's not that this person is not lonely, but that he has never had the concept of loneliness in his life, so he has a firm mind, clear goals, and the profile of his profile is always calm and steady. I also feel the same peace and stability.

That's why when I first became King Qing, I subconsciously ran to him.

Shiina Yu's rented apartment is not big, but the furnishings in it look different from his face, the lights and walls are warm beige, the room is filled with a light and warm fragrance, and the milk placed in front of him is just right It is warm and warm, and the warmth is refreshing after one sip, and the state of natural relaxation of body and mind makes him feel a little lucky to be here.

What is even more pleasing is that this person actually understands his way, and when he says that it is difficult to walk, the pity of those dark eyes flashes away.

The attributes of Qing Wang are rules and order, so the more determined a person is, the more powerful he will be able to release. In addition, with Yu Shiina's temperament, if he identifies a person, he will never be betrayed, probably At this moment, Munakata Reiji weighed the value of having to subdue this person.

After entering S4, everything Shiina Yu did was to prove the correctness of Munakata Reiji's vision. The arrogant man who said "a fragile creature like a king cannot be trusted anyway", as the person identified by Shiina Yu, Munakata Reiji Indeed, he was not betrayed, but he did not expect to be defended in such a fierce way.

Occasionally, Munakata would have some emotions about the way Shipan selected people. A certain heart became a certain king, and then went to a certain death alone. Therefore, only the king can understand the king, and the king and the king can attract each other and cherish each other. All the questions that would obsess Shiina Yu were answered when he was chosen as the Black King by Shipan.

It turned out to be the black king who symbolizes destruction. Shiina Yu's previous calm now looks like the calm before the storm.What triggered this storm of destruction was the protection of Munakata Reishi at all costs.

He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, and Munakata brought up the last topic before leaving, "It's not the Scarlet King but it's still lazy, Zhou Fangzun, it's almost time for you to take up your own responsibilities."

As the leader of the underworld, Barbaro, once the news spread that the leader has lost his strength, what kind of dangerous turmoil will be caused, without going into details, you can imagine, Zhou Fangzun snorted, "'Sacrifice for righteousness is worthy of death', Munakata, I thought you'd say that."

Qing Wang, who had already stood up and turned his back to him, was walking towards the exit by himself, but he just paused for a moment, then continued walking alone without saying a word.

……

S4 settlement.

The light was on in the reference room of the General Affairs Division. When Seri Awashima opened the door, he saw a man sitting on the sofa taking off his glasses, frowning and pressing his temples lightly.Even though Shiina Yu had warned her in advance that Munakata Reiji's state of drunkenness would be amazing, but it was still hard to imagine that Qing Wang would also be drunk.She subconsciously chose not to disturb Munakata, and went to the kitchen to heat the milk according to Shiina Yu's instructions. She walked over and called "Room Manager", and put the hot milk in her hand on the coffee table in front of Munakata.

The cup collided with the table and made a slight sound, and Munakata's movements froze for a moment. He suddenly looked up and saw that when he recognized the person in front of him, his subconsciously tense body relaxed again, and the posture of leaning back on the sofa seemed a little disappointed , but soon, these fragile gaffes disappeared, the corners of his lips evoked a calm and calm smile again, and his eyes became cold and clear. Qing Wang took the milk and drank it down, then stood up and looked at the opposite Subordinate, "Thank you, Awashima-kun, but please don't do such meaningless things in the future."

Munakata Reiji never thought that he could completely control Yu Shiina, but to get today's result, there is still a reason why he let that person go too far, and died due to his connivance. As a counterexample, only Yu Shiina is enough.He strode towards the exit, but stopped there again, turned his back to Awashima and asked, "Did he tell you to do this?"

The assistant, who was tense because of not being used to it from the beginning to the end, subconsciously affirmed, "...Yes."

The next moment, the hand holding the doorknob tightened suddenly, but soon Qing Wang decisively opened the door, his slender and tall figure was lost in the boundless darkness.

Qingyunliao.

When Munakata entered the main entrance, the lights had been turned off for a long time. He stopped at the dark fork in the corridor, recalling the times when he and Li You came back here to say goodbye, his slightly stiff posture seemed to be struggling, but in the end he still He gave up and chose a direction that ran counter to his dormitory.

Because I personally prefer to be quiet, Li You's bedroom is at the end of the corridor, and it is a single room with special treatment.The desk lamp exudes a warm yellow light, and everything in the room remains clean and tidy as it was before the person was imprisoned. The two potted plants on the window sill have not had time to wither, and they are still green and full of vitality.

The piece of paper appeared conspicuously in the center of the table that should have been empty. When Munakata picked it up, the sharp-edged and rigid characters came into view, "Munakata Reishi, take good care of the flowers in front of you. The three pots on the left Water once a day, once a week on the right side."

Until this time, Munakata finally couldn't help but let out a low laugh. Even though he was dead, not even a skeleton was left, the sense of existence was still disgusting.The drunkenness that was forcibly suppressed seemed to surge up again, Munakata was lying on the nearby bed nearby, the familiar clean and peaceful breath surrounding his body bewitched him to fall into a deep sleep willfully.

That night, Zong Xiang dreamed that Li You walked out of the dark alley with him on his back, and then walked straight along the long street. His broad shoulders were strong and warm, and his steps were calm and calm. At the end of the road, there was Mi White walls and bright yellow lights.

……

The morning after Yu Shiina's death, a strange kitten appeared next to the trash can near the back door of BARHOMRA. Kusanagi Izumo noticed this because Fujishima-san couldn't look directly at it, dying and nestling on the ground , but he ignored everyone and refused to let anyone touch him, and came to move him as a rescuer.

"So don't worry about such a cat anymore." Kusanagi behind the bar advised coldly while maintaining the cup.

"But, I think it looks familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before." Fujishima frowned and thought carefully, "Ah, it should be in Mr. Shishu's photo."

Shishu Tatara has photographed many cats, but such an explanation still did not arouse Kusanagi Izumo's interest. Just as he was about to continue exhorting him, Zhou Fangzun who was sitting by the side stood up and walked towards the back door.Days of sluggishness made the kitten's fur lose its luster, and it curled up listlessly. Zhou Fangzun approached slowly with sluggish steps. Just as he was one meter away from it, he saw the kitten's enthusiasm suddenly It jumped up, opened its eyes to look at him, and found that the person it was waiting for was not the person it was waiting for, and nestled back again.

"It really is you." Zhou Fangzun said, while squatting down, he picked up the kitten smoothly.

Fujishima on the side watched all this almost dumbfounded.

in the bar.

The kitten nestled quietly on the bar counter. Kusanagi pushed the plate with food in front of it, and saw it shrank back as if avoiding it, until Zhou Fangzun raised his hand and ran down its head. Shun Mao said, "Let's eat." It just glanced at him silently, and leaned over the side of the plate to eat bit by bit.

"So, this is Shiina's cat?"

"what."

After being affirmed, Kusanagi suddenly paused, "Run to the place where Shiina first appeared..."

Zhou Fangzun did not continue this topic, he stood up and looked down at Qing, "Let's go, someone probably needs you very much."

It was clearly said to the cat, but it made people feel that he himself was also within the scope of the target. Kusanagi watched Ao jump up from the table in a daze, ran a few steps and nimbly climbed along the man's back to his crotch. On the shoulder, subconsciously felt that it was the beginning of another reincarnation, he smiled wryly and hurriedly stopped Zhou Fangzun before he walked out the door, "Zun, it's not good just like this."

Even if Kusanagi Izumo has a brilliant mind, the barbarian who has lost the kingship still can't last long, but that's okay, he can dismiss the barbarian like this, and together with Zhou Fangzun, as before, just as ordinary friends , get married at the right age, attend each other's weddings, make appointments to drink together in spare time, talk about the short and trivial matters of the parents, have no disputes or responsibilities to bear with life, and just live a life in a flat manner.

"It is Shiina's hope to live healthy as an ordinary person."

"Stop deceiving yourself and others." Zhou Fangzun said, "You know it yourself."

The supernatural power bestowed by the king on the clan will not disappear because of the death of the king, not to mention that after seeing such a war, it is not so easy to convince oneself to continue living like an ordinary person.

Before I knew it, I had gone too far.

Kusanagi Izumo thought in frustration, but at the next moment he heard Zhou Fangzun's voice——

"Kusanagi, don't worry." It was no longer the unscrupulous indulgence before, but a firm commitment with a smile, like a fierce flame of rebirth, blooming with dazzling vitality wantonly, "That guy, I Will not treat him badly."

……

The funeral of the team members was held on the playground of the S4 settlement.

On the day of Li You's funeral, the weather was still bright and sunny, which was not suitable for the occasion. Since there were no relatives or remains, the sword brought back by Zongxiang was used as a symbol. The ceremony process was also very simple. After the ceremony of raising the sword, it was directly sent to the Scepter4's cemetery.

The afterglow of the setting sun dragged a long black shadow behind Munakata Reishi. He stood in front of Li You's tomb, then knelt down, his slender white fingers slowly traced the name engraved on the black marble.

"Will you walk with me?" he said blankly, "Shiina, I'm not as fragile as you think, no, maybe I shouldn't say that."

I was able to say goodbye with ease at the time, and I must have expected this a long time ago.

Then, it should be, "If you're by my side, worry about me, and if you're not by my side, trust me." What a troublesome man, Munakata Reji slightly bent the corners of his lips, "There's no need to worry."

At this moment, there was an indistinct commotion behind him. The entourage who sent King Qing over stopped Zhou Fangzun at the gate of the cemetery, but because the man who was the only man refused to listen to the advice, he drew his sword urgently. Said in a calm voice, "Let him in."

Almost the moment he saw Zhou Fangzun's face, Munakata Reiji had already confirmed that he had made the decision to return to the throne.King Qing smiled faintly, but he didn't say hello to King Chi, but to the cat lying on his shoulder, "Have you been bewitched by the weak smell of strawberry milk?"

Zhou Fangzun snorted unmoved, "I'm jealous."

Faced with the dilemma of being questioned about his status in the kitten's heart, Munakata Reiji still smiled calmly, and the next moment, he proved his sovereignty with actions, "There is enough time for slack." He said, and then opened his arms to Qing, "come over."

The kitten lying on Zhou Fangzun's shoulder immediately jumped up and threw itself into King Qing's arms without hesitation.

The short greeting ended here, Munakata moved aside, so that Zhou Fangzun could also squat down in front of the tombstone, and personally said his answer to the person who gave him the opportunity to choose, "Sorry, but this is the result you hoped for Bar."

The red king who was bound by ten bunches of tatara has died. The shackles carried by the new red king are Shiina Yu, and they are not as fragile as ten bunches. Because they are dead, they can exist for a longer time, and no one can destroy them. This lock, it will guard Zhou Fangzun to fight resolutely without fear.Moreover, if the Chi Wang is no longer Zhou Fangzun, but replaced by other unstable candidates, Munakata Reisi's work may be a lot of trouble.

So this is, is it going forward side by side?

"Whenever that guy wants to protect, it's you."

Faced with the truth revealed by his friend sharply, Munakata pushed his glasses noncommittally, and suddenly recalled what the old man said when he met Guochang Road Dajue before.

"'Lucky', I don't like this kind of expression." One's own destiny should be controlled by oneself. The arrogant Qing Wang always hated things that were not under his control. Get today's result, "This kind of luck, once is enough."

The red sun was about to sink into the horizon, and the bleak sunset glow dyed the entire cemetery. Reiji Munakata stood up, with a straight posture like an unsheathed blade. He smiled lightly, then turned around calmly, and walked forward with steady steps. go.

This is the road paved by Yu Shiina's life. From then on, Munakata Reiji will go forward as he hoped.
