In the beginning, he was a timid, ugly monster.

Whether it is a human being or a monster, they will show disgusted expressions when they see him, and they will show it in front of him almost undisguisedly.

A few of them, or a group of them, gathered together and whispered to his back. They thought he couldn't hear what they were saying, but in fact, he could hear them very clearly.

The malice from the heart came to his ears with the wind.

"That guy looks really disgusting..."

A monster with a terrifying appearance to others is not heartless, he always feels lonely and longs for a friend who can understand him.At first, Banruo didn't understand why everyone always subconsciously ignored him and kept away from him. He was always careful, but even though he worked so hard, the other party would not be moved by it, but laughed at him even more.

——This ugly bastard is really stupid.

——That's right, I don't even look at what I look like, that look of trying to please is really annoying.

For, why? !

Just because he's ugly?

Banruo finally gave up. His original warm heart seemed to be frozen by ice, and could no longer emit any heat, and even stopped beating.

If no one loves me, then I will love myself.

He thought to himself, stretching out his hand to caress his uneven face, maybe because he had experienced too many insults and ridicules, he didn't have the courage to look at his face squarely, the appearance that even he felt disgusted...

Walking in a daze, but at this moment, I suddenly heard a helpless cry.

...is the voice of a human child.

When he regained his senses, he saw a boy not far away holding a desperately struggling boy in his arms. The monster's smile was full of salivating hunger. It opened its mouth wide, trying to eat the child in front of it.

Seeing the fangs shining with cold light close at hand, the child cried louder and louder.

The monster originally thought that he could have a full meal, but he didn't expect that when it laughed wantonly, its expression suddenly froze, and in the blink of an eye, its body and head were separated, and the neck spurted out evil A foul-smelling liquid, like a flower blooming in the dark.

The child was rescued, but he sobbed in fear because of the bloody scene, watching another uglier monster slowly approaching him.

Prajna didn't know why, so he rescued the child.

But the child didn't dare to look at him at all, he just continued to cry helplessly, just like he was under the mouth of the monster just now.

Banruo suddenly felt disappointed and helpless, and the gentle expression on his face gradually turned into indifference. He stopped, turned and prepared to leave.

But I heard the child's timid voice: "Please, please wait a moment."

Based on his feeling, the child seemed to perceive his tenderness and kindness from this ugly monster, and he made a sound to stop this scary-looking guy, because he really wanted to thank him.

It is precisely because of this that Prajna made her first friend.

What a precious word friend is to a monster who has been in the abyss of loneliness. The boy is like a ray of light, saving him from the dark hell.

"The most important thing is not the appearance, but the heart."

It was precisely because of the boy's words that he no longer paid too much attention to his scary face, but felt the beauty of being alive for the first time.

Although I am not beautiful, but even such an ugly self has friends who like me.

Monsters will not change their appearance due to time, but human beings will slowly grow old and die. Banruo grew up with this child who is said to be a nobleman in Beijing, and has been watching him grow from a young and ignorant child to a man with a certain age. Adults in the scheming city.

He has a wife, kids... and is very happy, and it seems like things are getting better.

... No, it's all getting worse.

After the child grows up, he seems to realize the difference between human beings and monsters, and there is a gap between him and him. In the past, they could chat and play happily together, but later, he always rejected him for various reasons.

Banruo thought that a human being like him should be very busy, so he stopped looking for him.

But as he became more and more deliberately indifferent, Hannya gradually became suspicious, and one day he finally found a human home.

That friend who was once regarded as a treasure by him, the only important existence, said with an expression of disgust that he had seen countless times on other people's faces: "That disgusting ugly monster finally stopped..."

Ugly.

Thinking of this, Banruo touched his ruined face, and said in an indifferent tone: "...What a pity, this face."

Xue Hui looked at him nervously, and asked unconsciously, "What?"

Banruo's smile at the moment is exactly the same as the grimace on his mask: "I peeled it off countless times before I managed to become so cute... It was ruined by you, sister."

Yukie almost forced herself to look at him, but she didn't know why she suddenly felt an unforgettable sadness, that kind of sadness was because of what happened to the poor and hateful monster in front of her.

how sad...

"Are you pitying me?" Banruo saw the unbearable expression on her face unconsciously, "It's so good... finally someone showed such a look for me, but even so, I won't regret it of his own revenge."

Xue Hui only felt that her throat was a little dry: "...you shouldn't have shot that child."

Banruo smiled, at this moment he has become a little indifferent because of the death of his heart: "If I don't do this, my hatred will never be appeased."

Xue Hui hesitated for a moment, but still said: "You keep telling me that you want others to like you..."

Banruo looked at her as if she was struggling with something, and there seemed to be some fire dancing in her calm eyes.

"However, because of your betrayal, you finally despaired, thinking that all human beings are ugly." Xue Hui felt that it took all her strength to say this, "But I think, you are just unlucky, and you didn't meet a human being." Someone who really deserves to be treated like that."

"Maybe sister, you are right, but I will never trust anyone again." Banruo seemed to be very tired and closed her eyes. "Actually, sister Xuehui, you are an onmyoji, I already knew that you have the ability to kill me, so come on."

Snow painting is very tangled now.

She has never killed anyone, not even a chicken with the courage to kill with her own hands. The previous battles with those low-level monsters were inexplicably turn-based, which kept her in the mentality that this is a game and it's no big deal.

However, after experiencing so many things, she also understood that in her opinion, this is not just a simple game.This time, Prajna, although he is a monster, is really a conscious living body...

Although Banruo didn't want to live anymore, he couldn't do it no matter what.

She tried hard to convince herself that the other party was a ruthless monster who brutally killed human beings and deliberately wanted to take revenge on the poor wife and daughter, but the hopeless and empty expression of Hannya and his sad words kept flashing in front of her eyes...

...can't do it.

It is impossible for a living soul to completely disappear in front of oneself.

But just when she was hesitating, Banruo had already done it himself, he took out a long knife from nowhere, and slashed towards the neck directly.

Xue Hui's eyes widened, and she rushed towards him subconsciously, stopping his movement: "What are you going to do——!"

The long knife and scabbard fell to the ground together.

And the long knife disappeared into the air as if it didn't exist at all.

...was tricked!

When Xuehui just realized that she wanted to summon Daitengu, she saw that the other party looked at her as if obsessed, and there was a satisfied expression on that terrible burnt face: "That's great... Xuehui Sister, you still care about me."

Xuehui felt chilly for a while. Although she subconsciously took a protective action, it didn't mean that she did what Banruo said, she just... couldn't bear it.

Most ordinary women would not bear and sympathize with this situation.

But this is only out of unbearable for his tragic experience and respect for a fresh life.

That's why she did it.

But she couldn't like him.

After hearing this sentence, she got up immediately, but noticed the scabbard that fell on the ground beside her.

The saber just now...was just an illusion of Prajna demon power, but what about the saber in the scabbard?

Hannya didn't seem to care about the missing scabbard, just kept staring at her.

What should be something insignificant?

Xue Hui thought so, but felt a little strange in her heart, and then couldn't help picking up the scabbard, but when she just touched the lonely scabbard, she heard the long-lost system sound.

"Congratulations, you have obtained the quest item, the progress is 2/4."

"Started the hidden mission: find the lost god soldier Onikiri."

Her confused mind suddenly became much clearer, and she heard herself say: "You can't die yet..."

"Because, I will help you find the person who is truly worthy of your sincere treatment."

For the first time, Xue Hui felt that she was lying so truthfully that she almost didn't blink her eyelids.

...Maybe it's because, deep down in my heart, I still don't want this guy to die.

And, most importantly, Hannya who got the Onikiri scabbard might know something.

Banruo looked at her blankly for a long time, and then said: "Really?"

Xue Hui did not avoid his gaze, but nodded firmly: "Yes."

Banruo was silent for so long that Xuehui almost thought that he was a little shaken, he finally raised his face: "I know what my sister means, I survived because of her kindness, whether it is like Xuehui or not. E-sister, as you said, I can find someone who is truly worthy of my heart... But until I find that person, I will work for my sister."

"I am willing to conclude a contract with you, and become sister Yukie's shikigami from now on."

After Xue Hui heard this sentence, she finally let go of her heart.

The contract between Onmyoji and Shikigami is valid, it is not just a way to simply use the power of Shikigami for oneself... In short, once the contract is established, betrayal will no longer exist.

And Prajna's mood at the moment is quite complicated.

His feelings for Yukie can be said to be quite fragile... He seemed to see the dawn of hope as before, but this time he hoped that the other party would stop deceiving him like the person he once regarded as a friend.

Such crumbling, sensitive and fragile feelings like fine porcelain.

If betrayed for the second time, Hannya may use all means to destroy the other party... Of course, not only destroying the other party, but perhaps together with herself...

The black flames in the boy's eyes burned more and more intensely.

Of course, Xuehui didn't know what this guy in front of her was planning. She just thought of the new hidden mission and had a headache for a while. After putting away the scabbard, she suddenly thought of how to explain this to Minister Zuo and Qingming after she subdued Prajna. thing.

She believed that Qingming would understand her when she knew about this matter, but Minister Zuo...

But Banruo has already figured it out. He seems to be very good at falsifying facts. He somehow got a corpse of a monster, which is not much different from his own figure, so that he can fool the only one who has seen him. The real little girl——

And after the disappearance of Wisdom, there will no longer be sightless monsters attacking such a powerful nobleman, and this matter is over.

Minister Zuo was finally relieved, the monster was dead, and the lives of his family were guaranteed. He rewarded Xuee with many things, and after this incident, he seemed to want to recommend Xuee to the Emperor.

It is conceivable that she will soon be known by the nobles in Beijing, and this matter will be publicized everywhere.

But it is clear that Xue Hui does not want to break into the circle of nobles in Beijing so soon, because although she wants to complete the main task and leave immediately, all she is thinking about is completing the hidden task first. Things in Beijing were delayed, so it was impossible to set off immediately to find this lost magic weapon.

And when she solved everything and returned to Qingming's mansion with Xiaobai and Banruo who was hiding aside, the young monster who had recovered her normal appearance gradually appeared behind her, and the big boy who had been waiting for her for a long time Tengu happened to see this scene.

Xue Hui only felt that the young man next to her seemed to hold her hand deliberately. She didn't understand what this guy was trying to do, so she frowned subconsciously and wanted to break free.

And Datengu looked at him coldly holding Xue'e's hand tightly, his always indifferent and emotionless eyes seemed to reveal a murderous look, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable, and a bloodthirsty desire was about to come out.

...want to cut off this guy's hand.
