Chapter 99
Yukinoshita was still waiting in silence.

After a while, she asked the same question again: "Seriously?"

Hui Yuan felt the pressure at first.But he took another look at the options on the task interface, and suddenly found that there was no time limit countdown on it.

This... meant that he didn't need to be too hasty to answer, and would rather be more cautious?
Hui Yuanchu gradually relaxed.

He thought for a moment and said to Saya: "Answer me a few questions first, and then I will give you the answers."

"I refuse to answer."

"……why?"

"Because senior thinks I'm useful, maybe it's because of those problems." Yukinoshita Saya's eyes seemed to be wary.

Hui Yuanchu shifted his gaze with some guilt: "No... no! What I want to ask now is about the relationship itself."

Saya finally made no objection.

Therefore, Hui Yuanchu had no choice but to think about it for a while and started to ask more peripheral questions: "You mean, because I asked you for a relationship, you turned around and thought that I might help you?
"But someone else has asked you for a relationship, right? Why didn't you ask him for help?

"Why did you ask me for help today instead of a week ago?
The girl stared at him for a while and then said: "...because I just saw it yesterday. Senior is different from anyone else. Only you have the ability to protect me."

...It is indeed the case, this is only logical.Huiyuan thought to himself.

Before yesterday, Yukinoshita Saya had turned a blind eye to him.

——The first key point of change was last night, when Yukinoshita Saya saw the scene where he and Setsuko were fighting.So this morning and afternoon, she tried to ask him for help twice.

——The second key point of change was that time in the corridor in the afternoon, when he successfully stopped Setsuko again.So at night, she finally came to the door.

... Yukinoshita Saya truly began to trust him, not only because he helped her, but also because he confirmed with her own eyes that he had the ability to help her.

"Who will protect you?" Hui Yuanchu continued to ask.

Yukinoshita Saya didn't answer, but just looked at him, her eyes became alert again.

"...Okay. I understand." Hui Yuanchu shrugged, "This question requires my consent before I can ask you."

He didn't get an answer, but he got an answer.

He knows where the "line" is.

"I will protect you, as long as you ask me for help." Hui Yuanchu thought for a while and decided to try again, "But - is it okay if we don't date? No need to date, I will still protect you. I really... …I just want to ask you a few questions.”

Yukinoshita Saya was silent for a moment and said: "Senior, you mean, this is your official answer, right? Now I am useless to you."

[No] in the field of vision shook.

"No, wait a minute, I'm just asking, not giving a formal answer!" Hui Yuanchu said as quickly as possible, fearing that he might not stabilize the system or Yukinoshita Saya.

"So, senior, are you serious?"

Hui Yuanchu finally understood Yukinoshita Saya's current situation.

In short, a stick.She seemed completely disbelieving that Hui Yuan would protect any stranger who came to him for help.

Therefore, she does not want to be a stranger.

In her logic, strangers would not be protected.

In her mind, there is only one way of thinking: "the bond of relationship must be established."

Haiyuan was a little helpless at first, but he could only try to put on a serious expression and gave a formal response to Yukinoshita Saya: "Yes, Yukinoshita, what I said to you before is serious, please date me. .”

Yukinoshita Saya just continued to look at him quietly and asked a question: "Even if I am such a person?"

Hui Yuanchu sighed softly.

... He just suddenly remembered that in the information, it was mentioned that Yukinoshita had received the same confession on the first day when he transferred to Jiqiu.

But at that time, the confessor was completely ignored by Yukinoshita.

There was no rejection, no dialogue, just like the boy who blushed and bowed in front of her to request didn't exist at all.

Not to mention how much this humiliating treatment played a role in promoting her later difficult situation... However, this is indeed Yukinoshita's consistent style.

But a few months later, under different circumstances, Yukinoshita Saya used rhetorical questions and repeated confirmations that were not her style at all.Moreover, what is revealed by the simple words "a person like me" is that Yukinoshita Saya's heart is not as muddled as it seems on the surface.She knows everything, including how people around her react to her.

Yukinoshita Saya is not a robot.Her rejection of the outside world is not a result, but a choice.

What other reasons are there for this?
Hui Yuan's desire for discovery rose again.

I am eager to try.

Want to enter the deepest part of her heart to explore the new world.

While changing his thoughts, Hui Yuanchu said in a firm tone again: "Yes, I just want to associate with this kind of snow."

"Really?" The girl opposite didn't show any excitement. She just raised her head and glanced at Hui Yuanchu, and said calmly: "——Then, there must be something wrong with the senior's mind."

Hui Yuanchu almost failed to maintain his expression.

"I'm not a normal person. Senior wants to date me, so senior must not be normal either." Yukinoshita Saya stared into Haihara's eyes and continued to reason logically, "Or maybe - what senior wants , not a ‘lover’ at all.”

"...I've always said that it doesn't have to be lovers." Hui Yuanchu said helplessly.

"Then what does senior want?" Yukinoshita Saya continued to stare at him

"Uh, yes..."

"——Is it a physical need?"

"no!"

"Even a person like me knows what responsibilities a lover should fulfill, mentally or physically." Yukinoshita continued speaking on her own, with a calm expression, "But... use gentleness People like me can't do things like comforting seniors. Therefore, I only have my body that I can use for seniors."

"If seniors have any needs, please tell me directly.

"As long as I can be used by seniors, that's fine."

Hui Yuanchu sensed a kind of sadness from Yukinoshita's words again.

He gave up arguing and shook his head: "Yukishita, I said it before, I just want to know a few things. If I have to tell you, all I want is the truth."

However, Yukinoshita Saya just stared at him and finally asked softly: "So, am I useful to senior?"

"……it works."

Yukinoshita Saya finally nodded gently: "That's good."

"——Then, whether it's lovers or anything else, it doesn't matter if it's just an unimportant title." She continued to stare at Hui Yuanchu, slowed down her speech, and said more seriously than before, "I just want to confirm , Senior, are you willing to form the only bond with me?"

"Under the witness of the bond, no matter what the senior wants, as long as I can give it, it will be fine.

"...And I only have one request for senior. Senior, please protect me."

Then she continued to stare at Hui Yuanchu silently, waiting for a subtle moment, as if giving him the last chance to repent.

Hui Yuanchu breathed out a breath.

Putting those messy statements out of his mind, he began to concentrate on looking at the system selection branch still waiting for him in his field of vision.
"Okay... Then, no matter what, I will respond to your request for help." Hui Yuanchu murmured to himself, then raised his head and made up his mind: "—Okay."

In his field of vision, the [Yes] option was finally highlighted, and the other options and text slowly disappeared.

The task text is finally refreshed:
[Side mission: The wish to behead the ghost (3/5)]

【You have established a bond with Yukinoshita Saya.It's just that at this moment, you don't know the true meaning of this bond. 】

【It doesn't matter.It's time to explore the inside of Yukinoshita Saya's scabbard and you'll come to know everything about her. 】

[Get reward: a reminder card. 】

Plot points advance.

After a moment of silence, Yukinoshita Saya spoke again and declared in a voice without any emotion: "Then, from now on, senior is my master."
