Fingers connected to heart.A person's hand is actually like a mirror that easily reveals a person's mood.

——Rin's hand, which was holding Fuyutsuki's hand, was very warm, and even sweaty from nervousness.

"Yin,"

"What, what..."

Not daring to look at Dongyue's expression, the shy Rin just looked at the road ahead without looking back.

With her eyelashes drooping slightly, Dongyue smiled and said, "Thank you."

"...!"

Holding Dongyue's hand tightly, it seemed to get even hotter and humid.Turning around and grinning at Dongyue, Rin's innocent smile warmed Dongyue's heart.

(it's time.)

"Rin often comes to listen to me reciting scriptures recently because, as the son of Father Fujimoto, he has awakened his heart to inherit the monastery?"

Lin beside Dongyue teased casually.She found that Rin was clumsily adjusting the size of her steps, trying to keep pace with her, and pretending that she hadn't noticed anything, she maintained the size of her steps so that Rin could control the rhythm of her walking.

"Who would want to inherit this poor monastery. Priests and all that don't suit me at all."

Rin, who had complicated feelings towards his adoptive father Shiro Fujimoto, said awkwardly, and couldn't help frowning.

Rin who would say that doesn't actually hate Shiro, nor does he hate the Southern Cross Abbey.Contrary to his distasteful tone, Rin actually respects Shiro very much, and also likes the Southern Cross Monastery that he regards as his "home".It's just that it's difficult to understand and difficult to deal with the rebellious youth, even if you hate yourself in your heart, you can't help but say the most hurtful and ugly things in a vicious manner.

Besides, such Rin has always had a grudge against Shi Lang, his adoptive father.So when Shi Langlin is mentioned, the reaction will be particularly strong.

Opening her eyes wide and showing a look of surprise, Dongyue said again: "Na Rin is still here to listen to me recite scriptures?"

In fact, Dongyue knows what kind of feelings Rin has for herself and what kind of feelings she has developed.Because this kind of feeling and emotion was originally intentionally created by Dongyue and deepened in Rin's heart.

Just like in the game, if you brush up the favorability of a certain companion, you will have a special episode with this companion. What Dongyue is doing now is to elicit that "special episode."

"The scriptures are boring, aren't they?"

"No, no..."

Thinking of Dongyue's solemn and sacred appearance when she was reciting the scriptures in the church, Rin's face flushed slightly, and her heartbeat also fluctuated.

"I love so much,"

Standing piously in front of the cross in a nun's attire, bathed in the sunlight through the stained glass, like a white lily blooming in the winter moon in the holy light, always makes Rin unable to take his eyes off.

After a pause, Lin, who has no experience with women, tried hard to organize the words in his mind: "I, I really like the scriptures Dongyue recited!"

"The scriptures I recited...?"

"Hmm...! That,"

The more I talked, the more embarrassed I became, and Lin, who found that he was almost confessing to Dongyue, became shy again.

"The scriptures recited by Dongyue are very nice..."

Rin doesn't know how to use beautiful or difficult words to praise women, and he doesn't know how to please women like a gentleman like Yukio.Rin, who can only use the simplest words to describe her feelings, said everything that came from her heart.

"is it?"

Dongyue smiled, but her mind was no longer on Rin.Originally, she should have said something else at this time. Since just now, she has been seeing small black round balls blowing towards Rin's side along the cold wind.

(Monsters……)

Generally speaking, the more human beings gather, the greater the negative energy and filth in the place will be.The Southern Cross Shopping Street is the most densely populated area nearby, so it's not surprising that sprites like sprites, who like to cling to filthy people and places, gather here in large numbers.

(Smell the "smell" of Rin, so let's follow Rin.)

Sprites have no intelligence, they just instinctively want to get close to the unawakened Son of Satan.After all, to the devil, the power of Satan is more delicious than any delicacies.Rin with Satan's blood inevitably attracts demons.

Looking at Lin with a smile, Dongyue suddenly said: "... People without faith are not guided,"

"Ugh?"

Blinking her eyes in astonishment, Lin who didn't know why Dongyue suddenly recited the scriptures could only stop in a daze.

"Hand of the Lord, open Jacob's staircase."

Snapped--!

With Dongyue waving his hands, the sprites who kept approaching Rin turned into black ashes around Rin like bursting small black balloons and disappeared instantly.Rin, who couldn't see what happened, still doesn't know why.

"why……?"

"Didn't Rin say that the scriptures I recited sound good? If you give Rin a little bit, you will die."

Seeing Lin startled, then turned her head away in a panic, Dongyue walked again.

(More and more, sprites.)

Yukio has been officially admitted to the True Cross Academy, and when winter passes and spring arrives, Yukio will move to the dormitory of the True Cross Academy.

(...The story is about to "begin".)

For Dongyue, who doesn't know who the exorcism is possessed by, and how many exorcisms there are in this world, time is getting tighter - Shi Lang is bound to die, because this is the work of the original author of "The Creator". will.When that moment comes, if the exorcism is still in the crack of Rin or Yukio's heart...

Dongyue frowned slightly.

But at this time, no one noticed Dongyue's expression.The heartbeat was unstable, and the hand holding Dongyue was sweating profusely.The whole head was steaming, and Lin, who couldn't face Dongyue squarely, could only stare at the concrete road under his feet.

(No, don't misunderstand...Killing is not just for you! Rin Okumura!)

But Lin has never seen Dongyue kill others.

(Or, maybe I didn't see it...)

Thinking that Dongyue killed other people in a place where she couldn't see, Lin felt uncomfortable again.

(What am I thinking...)

The poor 15-year-old adolescent Rin Okumura really has the urge to call himself "stupid".

(Speaking of which, Dongyue and Yukio—…)

When Shiro announced that Dongyue was going to live in the Southern Cross Monastery at first, not only Sutra, Changyou, Izumi, and Yukio were very surprised, Rin also yelled at Shiro on the spot: "Old man, are you crazy?! This is a monastery for men!"

"Well~ Then this monastery will remove the word 'man' from now on~"

With a smile of "Ahaha~", Shiro tapped Dongyue's shoulder beside him.Dongyue bowed solemnly towards everyone.

Yukio was the first to accept Shiro's decision to let Dongyue stay in the monastery.Not only that, when everyone was still stunned and wanted Shiro to explain the cause and effect, Yukio had already cleaned the room that had been used as a storage room for a long time, so that Dongyue could sleep in her room that night.

"Miss Hoshino, do you have time?"

"Yes, but please wait a moment. I have to finish drying the clothes first."

"Understood. Then I'll hang your clothes."

Dongyue spends some time with Xuenan every day.Although I don't know the reason and reason, and I don't know the content of the conversation between Dongyue and Yukio, but Rin can see that the atmosphere between Dongyue and Yukio is very good.At least, Yukio and Dongyue who were talking to each other when Rin saw them were smiling most of the time.

(When I went to Fuyutsuki’s room yesterday—)

Lin, who had nothing to do yesterday afternoon, took the poker cards and was going to find Dongyue to play trick cards.When Dongyue who answered the door opened the room to let Lin in, Lin saw that there was still a large hardcover book on Dongyue's bed.

"What are you looking at?"

Lin, who was curious about what kind of book Dongyue would like to read, approached the book, and found that it was a rather difficult religious book, and heard Dongyue's answer.

"The book that Yukio lent me."

Rin was stunned for a moment.It's not uncommon for my younger brother to lend books to others, but why at this time I feel a subtle feeling that I can't explain because of such a meaningless thing.

"Ah... That kid is influenced by the old man, and he likes to read books on this topic~"

Grinning, Lin, who sat on Dongyue's bed, picked up Xuenan's book: "Speaking of which, I liked this kind of book as much as Xuenan when I was young..."

"Old man, that person often hugs Yukio and me on his lap. He tells us stories about heaven and hell, angels and demons. The cowardly Yukio will occasionally be frightened by the stories and cry non-stop!"

Thinking of the cowardly and crying Yukio back then who has now grown into a perfect existence who can live strong without his father or brother by his side, Rin is somewhat moved.

"The position has been reversed now... now the person who is always worrying and troublesome has become me as an older brother."

Independent and strong brother with clear goals.The brother who has always relied on the kindness of the people around him, and is still worrying until now.Why did the relationship between myself and Xuenan change to what it is now?Rin himself didn't know the answer.

(Obviously I should be the one to protect Yukio.)

Shirou once told Rin, who was still young, that his power should be used for softer things.At that time, Rin was still too young to understand what "soft things" meant.At that time, the only "soft things" Rin could think of besides Shiro himself and everyone in the monastery was the twin brother Yukio.

Rin has been protecting Yukio with his own hands, but Yukio no longer needs Rin's protection.

Looking at the current Yukio, Rin feels a little lonely while being proud.

Rin has never forgotten what Shiro said, and what he should do with his power.There is a reason for this kind of Rin to fight with others day after day: he cannot turn a blind eye to his classmates who are being bullied by unscrupulous groups of teenagers, he cannot tolerate those who seek psychological outlet for pleasure in cruel animal cruelty, and he cannot turn a blind eye to others’ cries for help... …

Rin offended a lot of people because of this.But Rin always showed mercy to these people every time, and these people who found Rin would not put them to death always came to the door.But these people dare not do anything to the people around Rin.One is because Yukio himself is very strong, Shi Lang and the monks in the Southern Cross Monastery also have two brushes.The second is to cross the bottom line of Rin's patience, no one knows what Rin will do.

However, this is also the current stage.No one can guarantee that those who hate Lin will not prepare to fight Lin Yu tomorrow.

"...Actually, neither Xuenan nor the old man wants me to stay by their side and cause trouble for them, right?"

Rin smiled wryly, and said the fact that he was most concerned about: "Otherwise, Yukio wouldn't have moved to a boarding school, and the old man wouldn't have always said to me: 'Sooner or later you will leave the monastery and have to live alone'. "

"Yin,"

Fuyutsuki's voice interrupted Rin's recollection.Sitting down beside Lin, Dongyue chuckled and said, "Actually, I have a younger sister."

"……Ugh?"

Lin, who had never heard Dongyue say anything about her family, couldn't help but look at Dongyue aside.

"My sister and I have the same mother and half father, so we have different surnames."

"Every time I hear my family call me by my full name, I feel like I'm not one of them. My different last name is a constant reminder that I don't belong in that family."

The romantic mother Dongyue married her childhood sweetheart not long after Dongyue's father died of illness.Then soon there was a child between the two.

"Of course, everyone is very kind to me. Especially the woman who gave birth to me. Beautiful clothes, good-looking books, advanced electronic products, various games, favorite school... That woman made me There is no unfreedom in my life. Her husband has never treated me badly. But ah—"

Dongyue thought that maybe the glass-hearted princess disease left over from her second year of middle school had not been completely cured.That's why I have been brooding over such small things.

"I can't get into my mother's or father's arms like my sister and act like a baby. After school, when other people's children are held by their father's left hand and their mother's right hand... I can only hold my schoolbag by myself forever. Shoulder straps, walk out of the school gate by yourself."

Even sick.Dongyue had a high fever and became unconscious, so the head teacher called Dongyue's family members. Dongyue's family members just told the head teacher to let Dongyue leave early and go home.

Even with injuries.Dongyue twisted her right foot, and her ankle was swollen as high as a steamed bun. Dongyue's family members never noticed Dongyue's abnormality when walking.

Looking at her younger sister who started to lose her temper when encountering the slightest unfavorable thing, and then was coaxed and persuaded by the whole family, it was hard for Dongyue to say that she had never felt envious or jealous towards her younger sister.

"My sister is different from me."

"Not only is she a beauty, but she also has a good mind."

Just like the perfect heroine in a novel, Dongyue's younger sister skipped a grade when her older sister was addicted to the Two-dimensional world, and then went abroad to study, and will graduate from a foreign university next year.

"My sister never relied on me once."

When my sister was young, she was surrounded by parents, grandpa, and grandma, and it was not Dongyue's turn to help her.No, it should be said that Dongyue has no right to interfere with her sister's every move.When sister Dongyue grows up, she can handle everything by herself, even if she continues to rely on her parents, grandpa and grandma, she will not rely on Dongyue.

——A perfect sister doesn't need Dongyue as a sister.Just like the existence of pets in a family is dispensable, Dongyue is not "necessary" in the eyes of her sister.

"It might be extravagant for me to say that to Rin when my mother and stepfather are still alive. But, I,"

Turning her head, Dongyue smiled into Shanglin's lake-blue eyes.

"I'm very envious of Rin."

Dongyue kept smiling.

"At least, I'm very envious of Rin being able to sit on Father Fujimoto's lap. Yukio relied on his brother very much when he was young."

But the scorching liquid rolled down from the corner of Dongyue's eyes involuntarily.

"I……"

Finding that her voice was mixed with unexpected weak crying, Dongyue couldn't continue.

"..."

Silently hugging Dongyue, not looking at Dongyue's face that tried to laugh but finally cried.Rin closed her eyes tightly.

What is the so-called family?Are they related?Or people who live under the same roof?Or if two conditions are met, people who live under the same roof and are related by blood are considered family members?So are the parents who I haven't met once counted as my family?He has no blood relationship with himself and Yukio, but what is the Shiro who has raised him so far as his own?

Rin has been thinking about these issues.

But, now, at this moment, at this moment, Rin suddenly felt that none of this mattered.

(Although I don't know how the old man sees me. But I...)

(I feel that the old man, Yukio, and everyone in the monastery are also my family.)

Rin didn't hear Dongyue crying, but Rin could feel Dongyue's tears wet his shoulders.Hugging Dongyue's slender shoulders tightly, she suddenly understood that her troubles were a luxury for Dongyue—what Dongyue, who was not worried about or relied on by others, longed for was the "connection" with her family, even if she quarreled , "Connection" that cares about each other even if they are suspicious of each other.

(……if,)

(Just if.)

Holding Dongyue's hand and walking on the street, Rin, who calmed down and stopped blushing, turned her head and saw Dongyue breathing heavily.

(If I can be Dongyue's family...)

"Rin?"

Seeing Lin staring at herself without blinking, Dongyue slightly tilted her head.

(Is it possible to give Fuyutsuki a little bit of happiness...?)

"nothing!"

With a toothy grin, Rin looked at the road ahead again.Southern Cross Abbey is already in view.

(No, probably not enough for me alone?)

(Then the old man with snow on his feet and others will also be Dongyue's family members!)

Having made up her mind, Rin, who was very satisfied with her plan, smiled happily.

"Let's eat sukiyaki tonight!! Just bought cheap discounted beef!"

"No. It's such a waste, it will be very hard at the end of the month."

Dongyue also laughed amidst Lin's cry of "Alas?!"

Full of happiness because of Rin's fussy expression, Fuyutsuki, who had teased Rin enough, added: "Just kidding, I originally bought beef because I want to make sukiyaki, which Rin likes."

"awesome!!"

Clenching his fist hard, hearing the sukiyaki eating Rin was so happy that Fuyutsuki forgot all the unpleasant things in an instant.

"Teacher~! 』

The smiling face of the golden retriever dog waving fiercely at Dongyue appeared in Dongyue's mind without warning, which made Dongyue stunned.

(???)

Can't think of what Kise and Rin have in common, so that when I look at Rin, I will think of Kise's Fuyutsuki, while listening to Rin's happy words, he is a little lost.

(...Speaking of which, the exorcism in Kise's mind gap hasn't been detained yet.)

“The best thing about sukiyaki is the meat!!”

"Yeah, it's delicious. But Rin needs to eat more vegetables. Otherwise, he won't grow taller~"

"I'm a little shorter than Yukino...but I'm not too tall!"

(Kose...)

While chatting with Rin, the smiling Dongyue was not thinking about Rin.

(how is it now?)

Of course Dongyue knows that the world after being "SA|VE" will be temporarily stopped.Nothing should change until Dongyue goes back.But Dongyue still couldn't help wondering how Kise would react if he found out that he had disappeared.

The author has something to say: VS? ? ? Round4
