[Comprehensive] Red Flame

Barbara has been in a state of grief recently. The pain of losing the king made the entire Scarlet Clan lifeless. The event of the Colorless King caused Barbara to lose their king. It was like a knife cutting the most important It's like digging out the heart, which makes people feel overwhelmed with pain.

In the Barbara Bar, the noisy atmosphere full of laughter in the past has long been a memory.

When Zhou Fangzun was around, even if he just sat quietly in front of the bar and watched everyone play around, it would have made the whole clan feel at ease.But now, it's still a familiar place, it's still the same position, but the people who often sit there are a thing of the past.

There is no way to see that longed-for figure anymore, and there is no way to see that existence that seems to never be defeated.

There is no way to describe the mood of every clan member who comes and goes here except sadness.The unbearable low air pressure has been lingering here in the Barbara, refusing to dissipate, making the hearts of those inside it feel like being pressed by a big rock.

I wanted to take a breath, but found that I didn't even have the strength to breathe...

It has been a week since the Red King passed away. During this week, the barbarians were very quiet, as quiet as a pool of stagnant water. Except that they had to restrain themselves because they lost most of their power due to the loss of the king, they were strongly Sadness also makes them lose their usual vitality.

The incomprehensible fetters seemed so precious. What closely linked the Barbara was not the power of blood, but a more powerful existence.

"What are your plans for the future?" Although he didn't want to say such words, but after Zhou Fangzun and Shishu Tatara both passed away, only Kusanagi Izumo remained among the three who originally formed the Barbara.

Losing his most important friend, he is definitely sadder than anyone else, but even so, he still hopes to guard this place full of memories, even if he is the only one left here.

"I want to stay in Barbara." The first person to answer Kusanagi Izumo was Hatta Misaki, who was the most respected by Barbara to Shu Fangzun. Compared with his previous energetic voice, he has become very depressed now, but even though So he still didn't want to leave here.

Everyone expressed their opinions one after another. Although they are all willing to stay now, Kusanagi Izumo does not have much hope for this situation.

Time can dilute everything, how long will they stay after Dangzun is gone?People will always move forward, and one day the people gathered here will slowly leave one by one, unless...

"Respect!" Anna, who had been quietly watching everyone, jumped off her chair and rushed towards the door as if she had sensed something.Following Anna's movements, everyone in the bar felt the imprint on their bodies that had existed since joining the Barbara began to burn.

When Zhou Fangzun passed away, they could feel that their power was greatly deprived through the seal with the passing of the king.But now they can feel the power pouring into the body through the imprint again, filling the whole body with power.

A voice in their hearts told them that their king had returned.Although it's unbelievable, the hot mark is not their illusion. Could it be... Is Brother Zun really back?

Can the dead...can be resurrected?

No matter what they were doing at the moment, everyone stopped and followed Anna's pace in unison. Their hearts were filled with anticipation and a little fear. They hoped that Zhou Fangzun would come back as they had imagined, but they were also afraid that it would be nothing but nothing. .

Picking up Anna, who was not running fast, Kusanagi Izumo directed everyone to get into the car parked behind the bar, and followed Anna's instructions to drive the car at a fast speed, running through red lights all the way to the crossroads outside Academy Island. On the Sea Bridge.

When the red hair came into view, Barbara's little friends were stunned. They had confirmed Zhou Fangzun's death, so when they saw the living Zhou Fangzun appearing in front of them again, Frankly speaking, they were dumbfounded and didn't know how to react.

"Hey, Kamamoto, am I dazzled?" Staring blankly at Zhou Fangzun approaching from the front, Misaki Hatta, who was lying on the back seat, couldn't believe her eyes, "Brother Zun... Brother Zun, isn't he?" Already... Could it be that I am dreaming..."

Just when the group of men were stunned, the youngest girl in the car was the first to respond.

"Zun." As soon as the car came to a stop, Anna opened the door of the front seat and rushed to Zhou Fangzun and hugged him fiercely.Her hands were trembling all the time, Anna buried her head in his arms, the tears could not be stopped anymore, falling down her cheeks and soaking Zhou Fangzun's clothes.

"Ah... Anna." He put his big hand on the top of Anna's head and rubbed it. At this moment, the feeling of irritability caused by Ayako's disappearance was relieved. Zun's expression was obviously a little stunned.

The role of the ten-year rocket launcher is to send people ten years later, so how come these familiar faces that appear in front of him have not changed much?Especially Misaki Hatta, who should be in her 20s now, why does she still look like a junior high school graduate...

"Brother Zun!"

"Respect."

……

Anna's actions seemed to turn on a certain switch, causing all the Barbara people to move, and a group of people surrounded Zhou Fangzun, with excited expressions and incredible ecstasy on their faces.

There is nothing more gratifying than the return of their king. Even if they think it is miraculous and absolutely impossible to happen, the Zhou Fangzun that exists in front of them is definitely real, and their brother Zun is indeed back. .

The ecstatic young people talked non-stop around Zhou Fangzun, everyone's face was full of joy, some were even moved to tears, but there was one person in this group who seemed particularly quiet.

Standing quietly behind the crowd alone, Kusanagi Izumo was the first to get off the car with Anna, but during the walk, he had a strange feeling that the person in front of him was not someone he was familiar with But he is very sure that he himself is Zhou Fangzun.

His footsteps stopped involuntarily. When other people behind him bypassed him and ran to Zhou Fangzun, he was still standing alone outside the crowd keeping a relative distance. He wanted to laugh wantonly like the others, but completely Can't laugh.

Kusanagi Izumo has known Zhou Fangzun since high school, and they have been best friends for eight years. He can be said to be the person who knows Zhou Fangzun the most, and Zhou Fangzun's death is a pain for him. thing.

No matter what the reason is, it is indeed a joyful thing if the deceased can meet again, but at this moment he is not happy at all - he is not Zhou Fangzun who has known him for eight years.

"Izumo." Zhou Fangzun in the crowd also felt that something was wrong. These faces were all familiar faces. Zhou Fangzun could read the names of all of them here, but there was always a lingering sense of weirdness.

He now wants to know what happened here, and Kusanagi Izumo, who has the most sensible personality among this group of people, is the best person to ask.

The crowd automatically vacated a place for Kusanagi Izumo to come in. When facing a man who looked older than the Kusanagi Izumo he knew, Zhou Fangzun suddenly asked, "Izumo, how old are you now?"

Izumo Kusanagi was puzzled by Zhou Fangzun's question, but he still answered, "26 years old, what's wrong."

"I'm 21 years old now." Sure enough, the strange feeling he felt when he met the Barbara before was confirmed at this moment.

In his world, Kusanagi Izumo's age is 23 years old, so it is correct that Kusanagi Izumo should be 33 years old in the world he should have come to after being hit by rockets for ten years.However, Kusanagi Izumo is only 26 years old now, and obviously the world he came to is not ten years later, but three years later.

What exactly is going on?Is there something wrong with the ten-year rocket launcher?What about Ayako?Is she in the world ten years later or is she in the same world as him?

Thinking that the future Ayako was sent to might be different from the future he is in now, Zhou Fangzun's mood became miserable again, and a strong uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart, as if something happened to Ayako suddenly, making him feel sad. He became irritable.

"21 years old?!" Kusanagi Izumo was definitely not the only one who was surprised. Zhou Fangzun's age is not a secret in Barbara. Even if not everyone knows it, at least a considerable number of people know his current age. 24, not 21 as he said.

The scene suddenly fell silent, no one spoke, and everyone looked at Zhou Fangzun fixedly, as if he had said something puzzling.

"No matter what, Zun is Zun." In the silent reaction, only Anna didn't care about it at all. She hugged Zhou Fangzun's waist even harder, and she said firmly, "Zun's red is the most beautiful red. I like Zun's red color the most."

The girl hugged Zhou Fangzun firmly, and there was a tendency to hug him tighter and tighter, as if she was afraid that the person she hugged would disappear again. She also knew that this Zhou Fangzun was not the Zhou Fangzun she had been following behind him all this time. But respect is respect, and this will not change.

"Yes, what Anna said is not wrong at all, respect is respect." As if agreeing with what Anna said, Kusanagi Izumo relaxed and smiled.Indeed, it was already a gift from heaven for them to see the living Zun again, "This is not a good place to talk, let's go back."

It's really not good to stand here and talk, driving away those young people in the clan who were too excited to surround Zhou Fangzun and refused to leave, Kusanagi Izumo was in charge of all matters of Barbara like an old mother.

Zhou Fangzun had no objection to all of this, he didn't like to stand on the road and talk about important things, but it was related to Ayako's whereabouts, he still wanted to find her as soon as possible, "Izumo, did you meet Ayako before you met me. "

Because of Zhou Fangzun's question, Kusanagi Izumo stopped and looked back at him with puzzled eyes, Kusanagi Izumo replied:

"Who is Ayako?"

The author has something to say: This is the K world of the original book, and the time point is about a week after Brother Zun passed away in the original book

So in the face of the dead brother Zun, I don't know how the head of the room will react?
