Funeral, what should I do if I reincarnate as a demon?

But now there was something else going on, so she didn't say much. She just put her feet in his quilt to keep warm, staring into his eyes, and said slowly: "I don't know whether Zain can be a partner, but I think he should become an adventurer."

"... Because you can see your past self in him, right?" Ash, who was lying on his side on the bed, opened the quilt and glanced at the little feet of the girl who was wrapped in black tights again when she hurried downstairs. He was too lazy to say anything more.

He just sighed and lay down again, holding his chin with one hand, and his tone was a bit casual: "It's because you seem to see your past self that you don't like him, so you had a "same-race hatred" that was difficult to explain the actual situation before, right?"

"Huh? Why do you know?"

"...How many years do you think we have known each other?" He smiled indifferently, yawned, and lay down on the bed again, closed his eyes, and was too lazy to look at the person in front of him who was too familiar: "Maybe...I may know you better than you know yourself."

"Really? Well, there is indeed such a possibility...Although it's a bit unhappy that you saw through it." There was no room for rebuttal, so Fulilian muttered with a disgusted tone.

But beneath that disdain, a smile quietly bloomed, causing her to counterattack in a tone that seemed provocative but inexplicably gentle: "Don't underestimate me, I may not be as slow as you think."

"...Why do you think so?"

"You are hiding something from me, something very important."

"...Do you think so?"

"Yes, but I won't ask, I will wait...because you are my most important friend." Fulilian looked at his eyes that had reopened, and then smiled faintly.

"This surprised me a little."

"Be a good surprise, and...before your life comes to an end, I will wait - the day you confess to me."

.............................

.............................

On a seemingly ordinary night, Ash and Fulilian finally had a long-lost open and honest exchange - although it was just the tip of the iceberg.

However, the next morning.

Perhaps she felt a little ashamed of her speech last night, so Fulilian chose to act as usual, as if the profound conversation last night was just a dream and never happened.

She naturally pulled Fen and Ash together to join the celebration of the Harvest Festival, and spared no effort to lobby Zain.

Although Zain was an enhanced version of a wine-and-meat monk, who not only drank, ate meat, smoked, but also gambled, Zain was unexpectedly diligent in the village, preparing decorations, helping farmers pick vegetables from the fields, and doing all kinds of messy work.

The wine-and-meat monks were all helping to prepare for the Harvest Festival seriously, and asked Ash and Fen to follow them, so Fulilian pulled them together to participate in the labor... and kept persuading them in the process.

Even if Zain tried hard to make them give up, it was useless, and he couldn't even ignore the dreams and hopes in their eyes that he had longed for.

That was completely different from his current self, like the eyes of an old partner, so dazzling that he couldn't look directly at it.

However... there was only one person who was different, and that was Ash.

Ash did not have the same dream and hope as the other two. Even in the process of getting along, he could not help but remember the strange feeling of disharmony when Ash left the church, which soon disappeared, making him suspect that he was having an illusion.

Even until now, he could not figure out what was wrong with Ash in the church.

Among the three, Ash was particularly unique. He was not like Fulilian and Fen, whose eyes were full of pure adventure and dream, nor was he an adventurer who did whatever he wanted.

Although he was indeed the most casual in action, Ash always maintained a sense of tension, as if he was in a state of war at any time.

Although he seemed to be doing whatever he wanted, he was unexpectedly practicing diligently every day. This self-discipline made Zain feel ashamed.

The three of them just stayed together and made him feel inexplicably that they were not the same kind of people. The difference in atmosphere was too great, and even the feeling of each person was different.

However, the two of them unexpectedly believed in Ash more than anyone else... He couldn't help but be curious about what happened to their past.

But the days went by like this, day after day, and he still didn't get an answer.

Similarly... Zain's firm refusal also made Fulilian really lack a suitable solution.

In the end, one evening, she couldn't help but look at Ash who was practicing magic day after day by the river next to the church.

Fulilian sat down next to him and pushed her:

"You and Zain seem to be able to talk unexpectedly. You should know how to get him to join, right?"

"He likes big sisters."

"I knew this before, but he seems to be like you, not agreeing that I am a big sister. Obviously, I am older than all of you... It's weird."

Fulilian crossed her arms and tilted her head, looking like she couldn't understand the two of them sincerely.

Is there anything difficult to understand? I don't understand why you can be so ignorant! ——Ash glanced at her flat and simple chest and her too petite figure. When Philen saw it, he tried to suppress the desire in his heart.

But Fulilian really didn't notice anything. After being puzzled, she simply stood up with an inexplicable determination, as if she was going to use her own nirvana, and sighed:

"There is no way. Although I don't really want to do this, I can only use this trick now."

"... Based on my understanding of you, that is definitely not a good choice."

"Believe me! Then... leave it to me, I will let you see my charm as a big sister~!" Fulilian looked down at him with a smile of confidence.

But he didn't flatter her at all. He just covered his face and shook his head and sighed: "I feel that I can already imagine the scene of your disgrace in your later years."

"Master Ash, what are you talking about?"

"You will know later..."

"Hmm~" Philen was a little unhappy, but he just followed the two without saying a word.

.............................

After squatting in the river beside the church for a while, Fulilian found the target.

She quickly emerged from the bushes and suddenly called the monk who was walking into the church: "——Zain!"

"Ah?" Zain mistakenly thought she had some tricks, and looked back vigilantly, and then...

Flilian opened her right hand from her lips, pursed her lips and made a flying kiss, and at the end of this action, she made a very deliberate "chi~" sound.

At this moment, the air suddenly became quiet.

After a while, Zain came back to his senses from his daze, looked at Ash blankly, and asked in confusion: "What is this guy doing?"

"...As you can see, it should be a flying kiss." Ash put his hand on his forehead to avoid the sight, while Fulilian put her hands on her hips, showing a smug expression without any self-awareness: "Hehe~"

"I can see it, but why did you suddenly blow a kiss?" Zain looked uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

"...In short, this is to show charm in this way, so that you will take the initiative to join us." Ash was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but dig out a three-bedroom and one-living room on the ground and ran away from this too socially dead scene.

Zain waved his hand with an expression like eating a fly, saying: "--I beg you, take this child away quickly."

"...I have this plan too." He sighed lightly, grabbed Fulilian's collar, turned around and wanted to leave the scene to prevent her from continuing to embarrass herself here.

However... as soon as he turned around, he found that Fern's face was red and he was covering his mouth, as if he was greatly shocked by Fulilian's behavior.

".... What are you doing?"

"Fu, Fulilian-sama... too, too mature! Too sexy~!"

"Ha, ha?"

Now, Ash was also shocked.

The child he raised turned out to be so... innocent or what? Ash couldn't figure it out, and he just felt a headache for a while.

Could it be that he was the only one who was the most normal among these people? ——He couldn't help but think about this question.

Fulilian, who was dragged by him and moved backwards, touched her chin and muttered to herself: "It's so strange... It worked very well before, Xinmeier fainted directly, but Haita, Aize and Ash didn't react at all..."

"... Don't you really consider the possibility that you were deceived?"

"Master said that it's useless to be too young, that is..."

"I shouldn't be young, after all! You look like a loli, you have no right to say that others are young, right? Under normal circumstances, it's strange that someone can be hit by your trick!"

"Wait a minute...!" Fulilian broke free from his hand with her ability, and once again made a kissing gesture with her pursed lips, kissed her left hand, and sent him a super close-up kiss, and even didn't forget to add a "chi~" sound at the end.

".........."

"Is it really a distance problem? This unprecedented distance hurts even Ash?!"

Flillian saw him petrified and silent, and couldn't help showing an overly brilliant smile; but she couldn't be proud for three seconds before Ash punched her on the head, causing her to cover her head in pain and squat on the ground complaining: "....What are you doing!?"

"Sorry...I felt underestimated and couldn't help it for a moment."

"...You don't have any sincerity in your face to apologize!"

"Because I really don't have any sincerity, and I feel at ease when I hit you."

"You guy.....!"

Flillian was so angry about his words that she wanted to jump up and hit him on the head.

But Ash shook his head as if giving up, and left her and walked quickly to the uncle not far away who was still having a headache...how to get rid of them.

The Buried Frillian·The Journey Officially Begins: Chapter 15 The Journey Restarted·The Curse of Sleep·The Unexpected Awakener (9K)

Although he was suddenly hit on the head, the direction of Ash's actions made Frillian have high hopes for him.

.....After all, she has been working hard alone during this period of time, and even if she doesn't want to admit it, she knows that at least Ya Xiu is a little higher than her in terms of emotional intelligence.

But she was full of hope, but Zain’s mood was completely opposite.

The random blowing kisses made him almost convinced...that these people were just having fun with themselves.

Seeing Ya Xiu coming forward for the first time, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He also took a deep drag on the cigarette and said with a smile:

"Are you finally tired of playing house and are you going to give up on their behalf?"

"....That's not the case."

"What, you still don't want to give up? It's obvious that you seem to... at least give me the feeling that it doesn't matter if I join you or not? You're just playing house with them, right?"

"It doesn't matter, but Fulian can't stand you being like her, holding back for some reason. Can't I just help you a little bit?"

Ashiu did not deny playing house, but what he said made Zain couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What, you quite dote on her, you obviously still quarrel often?"

"After all, we are friends who have known each other for a long time. It's normal to have a little quarrel, right?" He spread his hands helplessly and said, "We are all men, so I won't talk nonsense and get straight to the point."

"What do you want to say?"

"Stop hiding it, just tell the real reason why you don't want to leave the town. Of course, 'it's too late' won't work. After all, the real reason is not this. At least this time, I don't think it is. "

"...You are indeed more difficult to deal with than Fulian."

Seeing his expression of not giving up until he reached his goal, Zain couldn't help but let out a long sigh and scratched his head vigorously, but he was still forced to tell him the truth in order to drive them away and stop being entangled. .

.............................

In fact, the reason why Zain doesn’t want to leave here is not that troublesome, but the cause of the matter is quite far away.

When he was a child - Haita came here and invited his brother to the Holy Capital.

For the rural priests of the northern countries, this was definitely an opportunity to leap over the dragon's gate. It was only once in a lifetime and extremely rare. They even agreed to let Zain live in the Holy Capital together.

In this way, whether it’s salary, living conditions, or social status, you will get a qualitative leap, but—Zain’s brother refused this opportunity, which no normal person could refuse.

"...I happened to hear it at the door at that time. My eldest brother chose to stay here and be a rural priest all his life in order to prevent me from losing my hometown after losing my parents."

Zain looked at the white smoke floating in front of him, and at the end of his words, he also showed a bitter expression: "Why do you want me to leave my eldest brother and leave the village, just to chase what dream?"

"...I see, I understand."

"If you understand, just leave quickly. I can't possibly..."

"——I personally understand, but your eldest brother will definitely not agree with your idea. In addition, I can also understand that you may wonder why an outsider like me can come to this judgment, but think about it for yourself, He also actively persuaded you to join us, right?"

Ashi interrupted Zain calmly, and when he was stunned, he stared into his eyes expressionlessly, and said words of blame in a low tone:

"And your eldest brother thinks so much about you, but you have a different understanding of his thoughts. To a certain extent, it can be called an unauthorized and unilateral 'I am for your own good', right?"

"I just..."

"Why don't you ever ask, what kind of person does he actually want you to be? And is he really willing to watch you keep regretting like this?"

The words Ash said made Zain’s expression become dull, and the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground.

Just when his lips wriggled a little, as if he wanted to do something, the priest who had appeared next to him had already walked over quickly, and even raised his hand and slapped him with an angry look on his face:

“——Zain! Have you always been worried about this kind of thing!”

"I just..."
