As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

"Linghua..."

"Ok?"

Hearing the general's call again, the girl stopped and looked over.

"You...do you think I worry you a lot?"

she asked.

"...General, worrying about your lover is actually a very happy and even satisfying thing."

After Ayaka said this to her softly, she left with that loving smile.

"...this child///"

She put the back of her hand against the gradually warming rosy color on her face. She never thought that the little girl had become so mature now, that she could get her every time even though she was only about 17 or 8 years old. She was speechless, even shy. Of course, it was not just Ayaka, but also the one from Kaijijima.

"Huh...I don't want to think about it anymore."

Shaking his head to throw away the somewhat random thoughts, he then looked at the shadow in the distance. He breathed a sigh of relief and stepped closer. His light steps did not make any noise at all, and he moved carefully behind the other party. He just thought of it. An idea came to my mind when I called out to the other party, and it just matched the atmosphere of the courage test meeting at this moment...

"..."

At this moment, Ying was silently looking at the Inazuma Islands in the distance, shrouded in the moonlight at night. She actually didn't notice the approach of the people behind her, until——

"Thunder~light~film~"

A specially picked young voice sounded in my ears. Not only that, it also contained some vibrato, and the tone was very resentful, like a resentful spirit.

"...?"

Ying came to his senses and did not turn around immediately. Instead, he was a little confused when he heard the voice in his ears. Maybe he hadn't realized what happened yet.

"Thunder~Dian~Shadow~, we have wanted to drag you down for a long time, haha~ you have today~"

Following this somewhat ethereal voice, she felt as if her waist was slowly being held by someone from behind. Even so, she did not waver at all. She first put down her hands and touched the palms of her waist. , even down to every finger.

hum~

The space in front also began to distort, and invisible vortices appeared to enhance the atmosphere.

"Thunder Movie~We——"

"General."

However, before she could finish her line or even proceed to the next stage, the other party said her name completely without looking at the atmosphere, and her tone was completely non-serious.

"..."

The people behind were silent.

"...?"

When Ying saw that she was motionless, he turned his upper body to look over in confusion, and found that the general was looking at her speechlessly.

"It's true, it's really you."

When Ying saw her face, a familiar gentle smile appeared.

"..."

She remained silent.

"what happened?"

Ying was a little confused when he saw that she remained silent.

"Can't you respond?"

she asked tiredly.

"What's the reaction?"

Shadow asked blankly.

"It's just the reaction of being scared."

she answered.

"But how can I react like I'm scared when I'm not scared?"

Ying asked with reason and no one could refute.

"..."

silence.

"Besides...it wasn't scary at all just now. Wouldn't it be a bit hard to force a reaction?"

The other party asked again to add fuel to the fire.

"... Even so, you have to give some reaction, otherwise it will be boring."

She puffed up her face dissatisfiedly, as if acting coquettishly.

"Is it enough to just give a reaction? Hmm - let me think about it..."

Ying frowned as if he was thinking about some difficult problem, and his pretty face showed a hint of serious thinking.

"..."

She looked expectantly at the other person who was thinking, expecting to see the other person's frightened look, even if it was just pretending. However, she still thought of the woman Lei Qianqian too simply.

The next second, Ying loosened his brows, raised his beautiful purple eyes that matched hers, looked at her, and then spoke with a normal expression,

"…I was scared."

Perhaps in order to convince her, he raised his hand against his chest to show that he was sincere.

"..."

The corner of her mouth trembled.

Well, she overestimated the other person.

"Just give me some reaction, is that enough?"

Ying seemed to think that his answer was perfect, without any doubt at all.

"Huh, you know, Ying, I was a fool for having expectations for you in the first place!"

She spoke as if giving up.

"It's too much. You said you wanted me to react. I listened to your words and reacted, but you want to say this to me."

Yingya was a little dissatisfied, frowned and retorted to her complainingly.

"The 'reaction' you are talking about is the 'I was scared' just now?"

She also deliberately imitated it, and it was exactly the same.

"Because I've never been scared, I don't know what reaction is required. This is the closest reaction I can give."

The shadow makes sense.

"Besides... I don't want the day to come that really scares me. Nothing in the world can scare me, only heart-breaking. Do you understand, General?"

The last time her general was eroded by the eternal law was what really scared her, and she didn't want to encounter anything like this again.

"..."

She didn't retort after hearing this. She didn't expect the other party to be so serious suddenly.

"I'm sorry...am I being too serious? I'm obviously here to try my luck."

Ying came back to her senses and realized that she seemed to be criticizing the other party. She immediately restrained her tone and changed to her previous tone, but she knew it was too late. This was just to remedy the situation. Maybe the general was right, this was the atmosphere. Bar.

"fine…"

Although the general shook his head, his tone was obviously a little disappointed, like a child who was poured cold water on by an adult when he was in high spirits.

"By the way, there seems to be a stall in the Guarded Forest that can be moved out of thin air. It's quite interesting. Have you ever encountered it?"

Seeing this, Ying immediately planned to change the topic to make the other party interested again. She knew that she was the one who made the other party unhappy.

"I've never met you... Could it be that you also participated in the courage test?"

she asked.

"I was just passing through the Guarded Forest. I thought the mechanisms there were controlled by human power, but I didn't expect that there would be demonic powers."

Shadow held his chin and recalled what he had seen before.

Demonic power…

She recalled the somewhat inconsistent aura she felt when she passed through the forest before going to Shenli Mansion... Is it related to that?

but…

"Have you...finished your work?"

She asked with concern after coming back to her senses.

"Yeah, I didn't plan to come over originally, for fear of disturbing you, but... I really had nothing to do in the castle tower alone. When I saw the fireworks in Naganohara rising into the sky, I felt that it must be very lively outside, so I thought I'd better go out and relax. It’s good to relax.”

Shadow explained.

"...I see, you really watched the fireworks."

Just as she had guessed at that time, it turns out that the one who understands the other person best is herself, ah...and Zhen.

"Well...it's very beautiful,

Shadow looked up at the night sky...

"Fireworks fade away, but human kindness lasts forever. That was the scene at that time."

When he said this, there was a certain melancholy in Ying's tone.

Chapter of Qiu Jin ~ Time passes easily, life is like dew: Chapter 25 You are really happy!

Fireworks fade away quickly, but human feelings last forever.

She looked at the shadow in front of her in slight confusion. The shadow in front of her actually understood the eternity contained in the fireworks at a glance, and he hadn't even met Xiao Gong himself?

Ying seemed to feel the subtle changes in her demeanor...

"What's wrong? You look...a little surprised?"
