[Noragami] I was not there

Kuribayashi Jun said that Kanna Kazuhiko and Kanna Yuki are not human beings, and their true identities are artifacts.

Kanaki couldn't believe it, even after seeing his father's panic after hearing those extremely ridiculous remarks, even if his subsequent acting skills were so full of loopholes, even if his refutation sounded so unconvincing.

"Where did you come from! This is a crime, do you know?!" Kana Kazuhiko came back to his senses, perhaps realizing that his reaction just now was an acknowledgment of the man's words. He turned his head to look at Kannaki, yes Trying to redeem, "Axi! Don't listen to this lunatic's nonsense! Go to the police!"

"...Yeah." Kanagi pulled the corner of his mouth and forced himself to speak, "That's right, he's crazy... Let's call the police."

Basically, she was forcing herself not to think, not to delve into it, Kanaki began to struggle to get rid of the hands that were holding her limbs, but how could it possibly match the strength of that monster, what she got in exchange was only tighter and tighter restraints.

"Hey, Axi, no matter what, you can't say that I'm crazy, it hurts my feelings." Li Linrun seemed very sad, but his expression was more like watching a theater, and he was still yelling when he raised his hands Kanna Kazuhiko shut up again, "You should understand, who is telling the truth about your so-called father?"

Kanaki stopped her movements, and her flickering eyes were covered the moment she raised her head. She glanced at Kanna Kazuhiko who was still excited and shook her head again: "I don't believe it."

"Eh? Don't you believe it?" Li Linjun was a little surprised.

"Normal people wouldn't believe it! They suddenly said that my parents are not human!"

"Ah, this is terrible, how can I convince you." Kuribayashi Jun scratched his hair in distress, sighed, and suddenly heard something and looked up in the direction behind Kanaki, "Ah, Chi came just in time."

It's a name I haven't heard before, but someone is indeed coming, and Kanaki has already heard the sound of clogs coming from the direction of the entrance behind him.

She turned her head to the side, waiting for the person to appear from the wall, but was stunned when she saw the familiar profile. The person was wearing a kimono with a crown on her head. Her short black hair and fair skin made her facial features more delicate. , the faintly visible tattoos and the smile on the corner of the mouth——

"Nora?"

Nora turned his head and smiled at Kanna: "Seeing that you are still so energetic, I'm really happy for you, Axi."

Kanaki looked at Nora silently, then turned her head to look at Kuribayashi Jun again, now she finally understood why she woke up at Kuribayashi Jun's house after being dragged by Nora and jumped into the clean water pool, the two knew each other from the beginning.And thinking about it further, it was Nora who came to tell Yato about the ghost mother Hirone—she suddenly had a terrible hypothesis.

"You're so slow, Chi." Kuribayashi Jun said to Nora, still using a name that Kanaki had never heard of, but for Nora, it was normal to have many names.

"It took a little time to meet that person." Nora stepped on clogs, walked around Kanaki and walked to Kuribayashi Jun.

"Oh, him." Li Linrun showed a lack of interest expression, and put the topic behind him in a blink of an eye, "Chi, you should come and help me find a way, Axi just doesn't believe me, in vain I'm so kind enough to tell her the truth."

"What, I said that Ah Xi's trust in his father is not too high." Nora raised his hand to cover his mouth and laughed.

"Obviously it's pool noodles this time." Li Linjun lowered his head, as if he was really hit this time.

It was such a harmonious conversation, but Kanaki was frightened again. If her ears were not broken, Nora just called Kuribayashi Jun——

"Father...sir?"

Nora paused slightly, turned around to look at Kanaki, and at the same time hooked the man's neck with a smile, his expression and tone were more subtle and charming than before: "Yes."

... So, Li Linjun is not a young and rich gold medal cowherd at all, but a middle-aged man whose real age is at least forty?

"Axi, don't look at me with such eyes, I may be much bigger than you think." Kuribayashi Jun saw through what Kanaki was thinking at a glance, and seemed to explain to her kindly, but in fact It was the second time I was hit, "...but my mentality is still very young, youthful youth."

Well, Li Linjun made it clear that he is not an ordinary person, let's just treat him as a good-looking man.

"Ah, by the way." Kuribayashi Jun suddenly raised another finger under the blow, "Yato also called me father."

"Yato?!" Kanaki was hit as hard as Kuribayashi Jun. She looked at Kuribayashi Jun in disbelief, and after thinking about it, she shook her head resolutely, "Impossible, Yato I don't know you at all... You really are a crazy man full of nonsense."

"When it comes to Yato, it seems that the whole person is invigorated. It's really nice of your relationship." Kurilin Jun shook his head helplessly, and felt quite sorry, "I'm really envious...but I never lied to you Oh, Axi."

"You've been lying to me since the first day we met, you bastard." Kanagi glared at the seemingly innocent man, and he couldn't add points to this man because he was handsome.

"Hey, why didn't Axi never consider that Yato lied to you?" Nora suddenly took the words, she looked at Kanaki with a smile, as if she didn't want to miss every subtle change in her.

"Yato won't lie to me." Kanaki almost blurted out, as if this was the only question she didn't need to think about, and she didn't want to be swayed by a few words casually said by some enemies who were not friends.

Li Linrun raised his hand and touched Nora's head, smiling inexplicably: "That's why I'm so envious, Chi."

"That's what he said."

There was no explicit dialogue, and the attitudes of the two were ambiguous, as if a new opening had been dug in Kanaki's heart, which was already extremely chaotic, and filled with all the malice to cut off what she had always taken for granted.

——Yato won't lie to me...Only he will definitely not lie to me.

Kanaki told herself that this was what she firmly believed in.

But what Li Linjun had to do was to crush all the things she said she believed in.

"Suddenly came up with a good idea." He said, and raised his hand to summon the dark matter behind him, "Ah Xi, you should know that unlike humans, artifacts touch something, but will get sick."

A few wolves with faces came out with their paws open, their terrifying fangs exposed, and the saliva dripped from their mouths onto the ground, scorching the floor like a corrosive liquid.

"Hey! Wait a minute!" Kanaki realized Kuribayashi Jun's intentions, watched him wave his hand, and wanted to stop it but it was too late.

After receiving the order, the demon wolf jumped up, and in three or two steps, it quickly rushed to Kanna Kazuhiko who was lying on the ground and couldn't move——

"what--!!!"

Kazuhiko Kazuhiko, who was instantly surrounded by demon wolves, cried out in pain. It was not an unbearable pain. The demon wolf cut open his skin with sharp claws, bit his tendons with fangs, and every wound could almost see the thickness of the bones. White, the most frightening thing is that the blood flowing out of it is not red, but frightening black, which is the real cause of his pain——

ill.

Like a toxin, it invaded every part of the body from the wound. It was indeed the most painful "disease" that Kannaki had ever seen and caused the greatest pain to the gods and artifacts.

"...Stop, stop...I said stop—!"

Kanaki yelled, she tried her best to move forward, but she was still firmly grasped behind her, one step, two steps, the veins on her neck were tensed with too much force, she wanted to move forward even further A little more, the muscles were stretched too much, and the hands and feet were strangled with deep blood marks, but just... just couldn't take another step.

"Be sure to watch carefully, Axi." Nora walked to Kanaki's side, facing this cruel scene, his eyes became more gentle, "That is the fall of the artifact."

"Don't... don't continue."

"Then admit it, your parents are artifacts, and everything you have is false."

This is the only truth Kuribayashi Jun wants Kanaki to realize.

Kannaki was taken aback, his pupils constricted violently, and even the movement of breaking free stopped——

What does it mean that everything she owns is false? ... But if, just if, her parents are both artifacts, then what is she?

——What the hell is Kanagi?

"There is no 'Kanaki' in the world, do you finally understand?"

"That's not—!" Kana Kazuhiko's voice suddenly sounded, he managed to break free from the surgery, endured great pain and raised his head to look at Kanaki who was almost on the verge of collapse, "Axi, you are our daughter! We A family of three has lived together for 16 years! You don’t have nothing!”

"Ah, it's a little noisy." Li Linrun rubbed his ears, raised his hand and waved again.

Behind Kanna Kazuhiko, the same black arms that trapped Kannaki appeared in an instant, but the difference was that they had something like a needle and thread on their hands. They grabbed Kanna Kazuhiko who was still going on, and pulled his upper and lower lips together. Squeeze them together, start stitching from the corner of the mouth, the needle is connected to the thread, and the thread is connected to the needle, one by one, until the mouth is completely stitched.

"Uh...uh-!!!"

Kanna Kazuhiko could only let out a muffled scream, he was curled up in pain, the chigger had corroded most of him, the darkest part had exposed a slit, and then opened at the same time, it was pupils Eyes of different colors and sizes.

——I'm about to become a monster.

"Father—!" Kanaki has never experienced such despair, but the man's unstoppable bewitchment is in his ears——

"Admit it."

"Come on."

"Your parents are artifacts."

"Everything you have is false."

"In that case, I will stop."

"...will it really stop?" Kanaki's lips trembled, she really couldn't bear to watch the scene in front of her for a second—she was really a very, very timid person in front of her relatives.

The corner of Li Linrun's mouth curved strangely in an instant, and the smile reached his eyes: "Ah, yes, then I will stop."

Kanaki's vision has been completely blurred, what she is doing is to completely deny her own existence, but right now she has no other choice, she does not care about any artifacts, the only thing she knows is that her parents will return after being tortured. Infinite Hell——

"...Okay, I admit—"

"Can't--!!!"

"...!!" Kanagi suddenly opened his eyes wide, and the words he was about to say were cut off.

It was the voice of Kanna Kazuhiko, whose lips were sewn shut, but the thread was still torn apart with brute force, and the result was that the mouth that had been played with was cut into several bloody pieces, every time he spoke bleeding.

"Only this sentence must never be said!"

Kuribayashi Jun lowered his face, his patience for watching this kind of development has almost reached its limit, he knew that if this continues, Kanaki will never say that - forget it, anyway, the original plan was just to let Kanaki Just go with yourself, wait a little longer.

The demon wolf returned to Kuribayashi Jun, and the masked monster appeared behind Kanna and his wife again, gagged Kanna Kazuhiko again, dragged him and Kanna Yuki who had not regained consciousness into the darkness and disappeared in place.

"Okay, let's end the sideshow here." Li Linjun clapped his hands, and everything just now was exactly as he said in his heart, but he just thought it would be more interesting.

I thought the girl in front of me would scold him, but after waiting for a long time, there was no response, she just lowered her head in silence, the wounds on her neck, hands and feet were still bleeding, and it took a long time before she heard her hoarse voice. sound--

"...What exactly do you want to do?"

So I went back to the old question again, but Li Linjun was in the mood to answer it this time——

"It should be that you... do me a small favor."
