[Comprehensive] Why am I not dead yet?

Many years later, a reporter interviewed Katsuki Bakugo, who had become famous, and asked him about his youthful experience.

Bakugo Katsuki chose the rare silence.The host waited for a long time but didn't get an answer and felt embarrassed, so he had to make jokes and use other questions to fool the past.

In fact, Aizawa Shouta, a teacher in high school, asked a very similar question on the day he graduated.

What exactly are your feelings for that person.

Longing, or admiration?

——No matter what kind of relationship, the distance between the two parties is far away.

If you ask Aizawa Shouta to comment, Bakugo Katsuki's feelings for that person are very important, but it has become less important.

It was too early, and the world was too mediocre, so he met someone who was too dazzling and amazing.

At that time, Bakugo Katsuki did not answer either.

His only answer was the three bright red lines on the back of his hand after graduating from university.

****

On that day, when the boy Bakugo Katsuki was full of confidence and wanted to win the No.1 of the competition, no one expected the horror that would unfold next.

"Hand over—"

"Hand over that person..."

A distorted "figure" emerged from nowhere, squirmed from the shadows under the arena, climbed up the edge of the arena, and finally took shape under the eyes of everyone's astonishment and fear—the reason why It is called a human figure because neither the lines of the hands and feet nor the outline of the face can be seen, and one can only rely on the outline of the shape to confirm that it should be the shape of a person.

I don't know how many human voices overlapped together, and finally the weird voice mixed violently, under the shroud of the midday sun, everyone felt a chill behind them.

In the open-air stadium of Xiongying High School, the warm and dazzling golden sun shrouded everyone's heads.

However, no matter how bright the sun is and how warm the surrounding atmosphere is, there is always something that cannot be ignored, like the dust under people's feet, like the darkness in those corners that are completely forgotten because of a momentary excitement, or like the people under their feet are covered Shadows cast by the sun.

——Maliciousness possessed by human beings themselves.

Jealousy, comparison, cursing, inferiority...

The monster first devoured the body of the new god who claimed to be the third foreign law happy day, but was actually a newborn human evil girl as its own nutrition, and because the original individual possessed the power to fuse the personality of others, it forcibly absorbed it. After the power of Saseiin, the opponent's power is fused with one's own "personality", which is infinitely twisted and changed inside this body, and then new parts are derived.

What was finally born was such a distorted monster.

Relying on the malice that grows in the shadows of others to feed on, but because the part that belongs to the killing house can't get rid of the desire for "love" and "joy"—since it can't rely on the original "saint" figure to absorb others' Love and faith, then I can barely absorb the little bit of joy that emanates from around my body because of this festival, and fill my stomach.

But in the end, it's still just a [monster].

Relying on the seeds left by the previous individual——the young man named Sigangmuhang as a guide, he groped to find something that could be used as bait, and identified from the remaining breath of the hero killer Stein The breath of a powerful heroic spirit.

Today's "shadow" has reached the point where it is impossible to recognize who that person is. It has abandoned the will of Seshoin Kiara, abandoned its own will, and is completely relying on the remaining consciousness of the body to act, but it can still be discerned. Find out that the quality of that person is different from others.

Just a little bit of residual aura tainted by other people, its mass is equal to the sum of the souls of dozens of people—so, the reason that drives this monster to appear in the shadow of the sports festival is just "hunger".

This scene was too unexpected, far beyond everyone's imagination. The huge ice wall that Hong Jiaodong subconsciously swung turned into an invisible thing in front of that "figure", humming, gigantic, and terrifying. The "mud" that spread out from the shadow under the ferocious monster's feet swallowed the huge ice wall that was half the size of the stadium bit by bit.

Then, he "looked" at Hong Jiaodong——

"I am starving……"

The young man with a calm face slammed behind his back!

——That is definitely not the feeling of facing an ordinary enemy. If you don't want to find a relatively suitable description, it is very similar to the fear and panic at the moment when the mother who faced the collapse when she was young picked up the kettle, but the concentration of emotion is A hundred times, a thousand times... or even a gap of hundreds of thousands of times!

The first fear, the first despair, the first pain...and also the first hatred.

The young man seemed to be swallowed by that long-lost emotion once again and froze there for a while, unable to remember even the most basic evasive action.

"Frozen!!!"

A roar that belonged to Andeva erupted from the stands!

"——What are you doing in a daze with half of your face! Hurry up and get out of the way!" Katsuki Bakugo charged behind roaring, but it was not for his own attack. The other hand roughly grabbed the back of the opponent's neck and used the recoil generated by the explosion to throw him far away!

And this series of actions, from the appearance of the black shadow, the stunned stunned, and the rushing up by Katsuki Bakugo, took only a few tens of seconds in total!

But precisely because of this action of Katsuki Bakugo, the only command spell left on the back of his hand was successfully exposed in front of the monster!

Has a very similar breath.

I, too, have had that thing.

There is something very precious.

A person who cannot be forgotten, a person who will never be forgotten no matter what he becomes, no matter what replaces him——

In the shadow, suddenly there was a voice that should belong to a delicate girl, and a cry of collapse and sobbing, but the voice was fleeting, and was covered by the original voice of the shadow in the next second .

But that feeling, recalled.

Black Shadow instinctively stretched out his tentacles toward Bakugo Katsuki's hand—just cut this off, just keep this stigmata...

But obviously, its behavior has misunderstood Bakugo Katsumi.

Well, it's not a misunderstanding, after all, after the human body touches the black mud, all that's left is to listen to the body slowly dissolve the fear of being absorbed by the other party.

"Who would let a guy like you swallow it!"

The young man raised his hand high, the last command spell on the back of his hand glowed with dazzling red light, his skin was burning hot, and the blood that had been cooled down by fear seemed to be boiling again together, that was crossing The final crystallization of space and practice is the last great magic belonging to this world, and the use of this last command spell means that that person will never have any reason to stay in this world——

The black shadow seemed to be irritated by him, and the pitch-black monster stretched its whole body desperately. The black shadow that had been condensed into a human shape suddenly dispersed, and the mud was scattered on the ground, followed by a wave of black mud that suddenly opened its arms. He wanted to swallow Bakugo Katsuki's whole body into his own body! ! !

And the young man looked up at the malicious manifestation with a haughty face, and roared out the last sentence,

"—I, I have the best Heroic Spirit in the world!!!"

As he blurted out these words, a golden light suddenly burst out in front of the young man!

Space is distorted, time is reversed, and the ancient King of Glory reappears at this moment. With the long silver hair flying wantonly by the turbulent flow of magic power and the ancient banner wrapped around the queen, she clenches the long sword tightly, He looked up at the monster whose body was full of holes that had been impacted by the magic power of the heroic spirit, and had to reconquer all the mud to barely regain its human form.

The queen sent her little master off the stage with her backhand, and stared at the monster alone, without saying a word for a long time.

"—so, ugly."

The monster shuddered.

"……To shut up."

The long sword in the queen's hand held a sword flower, and the tip of the sword rested lazily on the ground: "Filth, decay, and all the ugliness in the world are gathered together to create your current appearance."

"...shut up."

In that retort, everyone could feel the monster's anger.

Bakugo Katsuki, who was sent off the stage, looked up at Lian Su, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

... very illusory.

The periphery of that person's outline began to become translucent, and a golden light spread over her body, returning to nothingness little by little like gorgeous bubbles.

Ah, after all, it took a lot of effort to defeat Naowu before, and what followed, whether it was space transfer or a critical blow to repel this weak "human evil", all consumed was Lian Su's own magic power .

However, just leaving the scene like this is a bit perfunctory. With the addition of this final enemy, the combined effect of the two sides is more similar to the hasty ending of a third-rate horror drama where everyone is bloody and bloody.

She raised her hand, took off her golden crown, and threw it into the sky.

The flower branches of the crown spread out in all directions, fixed to the surroundings of the arena, and slowly closed into a golden cage under the amazed eyes of everyone.

Prison of golden roses—

Bakugo Katsuki looked at the cage formed by the crown that blocked himself and Lian Su, and suddenly rushed up.

"...Lian Su!!!"

Lian Su looked at Katsuki Bakugo who was the only one who realized what had happened and rushed over through the gap of the vines, with a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth.

"——I have told the little Master many times that Command Seals should not be used indiscriminately, but unfortunately, he has not heard me once in three chances."

Bakugo Katsuki's pupils suddenly shrank.

"Then... I was the last master, and she didn't want to listen to me."

The black shadow made a gurgling sound, tentatively stretching out its tentacles to send itself out of the barrier, but as soon as the mud touched the golden vines, it made a piercing sound of "stinging", as if being evaporated, and then As if being burned, the black shadow had no choice but to take back the mud that he meandered out, and put all his attention on the queen in front of him.

"No matter how you look at it, this is a world that people don't like."

"Come on, as the farewell song for my final gorgeous exit, don't be too disappointing."

The golden queen held the long sword in both hands and raised it above her head.

She said the last name, which was also a name that made Sombra very repulsed.

"——Sasshoin Kiara."

So far, the black shadow that has not yet produced the instinct of hunger, suddenly let out a sound of fear.

"I told you to shut up!!!!!!"

The shadow uttered the girl's voice again, roaring out a shrill howl that shook the sky.

"Don't call me by that name! Don't look at me like that! What I want is not this! What I want is not your feelings!

How do you want me to admit that I am still 'me' like this! ! ! "

"...That's why Yu will grant you the last relief."

The collapse visible to the naked eye was proceeding on her body, first forming the magic circuit of the physical body, then the stored magic power, and finally destroying the spirit foundation together, all the light converged on the blade in her hand, the black shadow Struggling, intending to dodge, but being suppressed by a strong will, all the instincts to escape from this light, the younger, crying voice of a little girl also made Lian Su lower her eyes slightly, aggravating the situation. Gather the strength of five fingers.

"—It's about to start, Kiara."

The woman's hair was blown up by the magic power, and her face was calm and solemn.

"I'm sorry, but with the state of this spirit foundation, I have no plans to let you continue to grow in this world."

After she said this,

Without hesitation, he swung the sword in his hand——

It is the belt of light that burns and evaporates all malice and curses. It is the palm of the queen of glory caressing on the head of the saint. The calmness of drinking the last bowl of deadly poison.

——That was a short time.

——That was the only time when the brilliance of the Lord and the power of the king shone together and illuminated everything.

Also, an era with a long distance from this world.

****

... how to describe it.

The vast majority of people in the arena are still confused about the various changes unfolding in front of them.

Some of them were whispering and discussing the previous scene, some were panicked, and the hidden fear in their hearts was aroused by the malicious shadow, and some simply regarded all this as a surprise performance that was completely unexpected by no one. It was the school's on-the-spot test for the two top students in the sports festival. Whether it was the boy's sudden outburst or the amazing golden cage behind him, they were all topics that people would talk about for a long time.

People looked up at that beam of light and sighed, but the golden cage failed to restrain the last beam of light, the vines were pulled away and turned into countless petals floating in the air, everyone's attention was all I was attracted by this magnificent spectacle.

They seemed to have subconsciously ignored the woman who was still standing in the field as if she was about to disappear with the light.

But Hao Katsuki did not forget.

Rather he never took his eyes off the man.

He remembered the excitement of the moment when he summoned Lian Su, and also used every inch of flesh and blood in his body to remember the fear of seeing her thin and transparent at this moment.

"...Lian Su?"

The boy's voice trembled.

The woman lowered her eyes and smiled helplessly.

"If it's possible... I hope I can walk with you for a longer distance."

She raised her hand, and that already translucent hand slowly stroked the boy's cold cheek.

"Such an arrogant, conceited, and arrogant little master, who even uses command spells casually—if you don't watch carefully, what if something happens again?"

"I won't use it casually... that contract, just sign it with me again!"

The boy's voice was a little trembling, and he subconsciously reached out to grab the other's arm, but his hands were empty.

The woman showed a helpless expression.

"——If the enemy this time is not Kiara's remaining body, I don't mind, but this spirit foundation has collapsed, and it is already a mandatory order of the emperor's prerogative for me to stand here and talk to you."

She raised her hand to touch Bakugo Katsuki's head again, and pressed her palm on the back of his tightly clenched hand.

"At the end of the day, let me leave you a small gift... just to celebrate your No.1 in advance."

The young man didn't feel any power appearing above his head, and he didn't look down at his hands. He just stared at her stubbornly, until the last inch of this person melted into the light fragments in the air, and scattered away. Can't catch a little bit of residue.

"Boom?"

At this time, Hong Jiaodong, who had returned to the stage, watched him stand there blankly for a long time, and finally couldn't help but called his name and asked a question.

"Are you OK?"

He stepped forward and saw Bakugo Katsuki expressionless, just looking down at his palm.

On the boy's palm, a beautiful golden rose quietly bloomed.

****

Many years later, Katsuki Bakugo took time out to turn down all his work and went to France alone.

He went to Reims Cathedral, to the only castle in French history where the queen lived when she was a queen, and to French museums.

In the end, the blond young man, who had already grown tall and handsome, stopped in front of a huge oil painting and never left for a long time.

The painting depicts the ancient Queen Sandra I, wearing a gorgeous long dress for her coronation and the famous crown of roses on her head. The Queen is sitting on a chair with a relaxed and serene expression. The whole painting is full of colors Extremely gorgeous, but the most striking thing is still the queen's golden eyes.

An old professor with gray temples came to his side with his hands behind his back, and looked up at the painting together with him.

"Young people nowadays seldom like to visit museums. You have been standing here for so long. Do you like this?"

Bakugo Katsuki still maintained the posture of looking up at the painting, and he asked in a low voice after a long time.

"If I buy this painting, do you think I can put my name with hers?"

The old professor was very surprised. He patted the young man on the shoulder and said meaningfully.

"Young man, you are a spectator outside the painting, how do you enter the world in the painting?"

Bakugo Katsuki pulled out a very indifferent smile from the corner of his mouth.

"Ah, yes."

——I am just a spectator outside the story.

He thought indifferently.

Bakugo Katsuki and Sandra I are two names that don't go together at all.

...The ridiculous thing is that it took ten years to fully understand this matter.
