Beng San, I have an unfinished date with her

She seemed to be very interested in this activity.

One by one, the villagers could no longer run and were paralyzed on the rural road.

Until nightfall, the last person couldn't keep up anymore and lay paralyzed on the ground with nothing to do.

All he could do was watch Alicia and the glowing figure (Mummy Qianjie) disappear from sight, sighing helplessly and fainting on the road.

During the few days that Takashi spent with Alicia, he had already discovered that he could control the invisible form of others, including the form in which his power manifested.

"Hahahaha~" Alicia ran so far away that they really had no chance to catch up, so she stopped.

"The long-distance running is really refreshing for my body and mind."

In a clear starry night, outside the forest, there was nothing to cover except a huge boulder. On a grassy slope, Alicia stretched her body in the moonlight.

The graceful figure faced the starry sky, with the starry spots as the background, and the graceful body lines were illuminated by the moonlight and the starry sky. For a moment, it was difficult to tell whether she was standing on the grass or standing in the universe.

Correspond your own beauty to the whole world and the whole universe.

Goddess, I'm afraid that's it.

It's a pity that few people appreciate this beautiful scenery.

After Alicia relaxed, she continued to take care of the food on the small stone "stove".

In the forest on the side, there were constant and terrifying scuffing sounds.

That was Qianjie venting his anger... and at the same time splitting trees to collect firewood.

After a series of conversations with Qianjie, he finally accepted the fact that he was taken out of the village.

After all, he has no ability to resist.

Long went in with him, wanting to talk to him about something.

In the end, the forest finally sent away this plague god at the cost of dozens of big trees being broken down with a single punch.

Although he only dragged one tree out in the end.

In a sense... Qianjie was quite careful. Qianjie shaved off all the branches of the tree in a few casual strokes.

It's just...it seems like this carefulness is in the wrong place...

Behind him, Long silently used his strength to pick up the branches that he had scratched off.

It watched Qianjie dragging the tree away and complained in his heart: [He didn't seem to notice that these small branches were enough for the fire to stay overnight. 】

Then he floated over with those branches.

"Dong -" Qianjie put down the thick tree trunk, making a loud sound.

"Uh...Qianjie, you..." Alicia smiled reluctantly. She thought Qianjie would understand after seeing the small wood she had thrown into the fire.

"It's nothing, Ellie." Long said, floating over: "There are quite a few here."

"Humph, you don't understand -" Qianjie deliberately prolonged his voice in an attempt to show that what he knew was correct: "This will burn more intensely and last longer."

Then he moved his hand, and a little flame emerged from his fingers, and he threw it onto the tree trunk.

The flame was unusual, so naturally it couldn't be treated as ordinary.

In a flash, the flames quickly spread and enveloped the entire tree trunk.

A huge light suddenly appeared on this grassland...

Qianjie laughed: "Hahahaha - this is called flame, so that the night will not be cold, just your little flame? Hahahaha -"

"..." Long and Alicia looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

"Qianjie, if you act like this, it will easily cause grassland fires to spread. If you run over there, I'm afraid it will also cause forest fires." Alicia flipped the food on the stone slab while patiently explaining to Qianjie. .

"Oh - so what?" Qianjie said, "I like the feeling of burning flames. It can destroy everything and clean everything, hahahaha!"

Having said that...the flames spreading on the tree trunk slowly extinguished.

This is the result of Qianjie taking back his power.

Otherwise, the tree trunk would never have flamed out like this.

"Hmph -" After laughing, Qianjie snorted and sat next to the fire, silently looking at the flames under the stone slab without saying a word.

Long silently cleaned the leaves on the branches, turned them into small stems and placed them next to Ellie to make it easier to fill the fire with firewood.

For a moment, the grassland became quiet.

Brand new branches: 287. Her sweet kiss

"That's it? Hey, pink-haired brat, your craftsmanship isn't very good either."

Qianjie took a sip from the bowl and started mocking again.

Alicia and Long didn't take it seriously. In just half a day, they had understood Qianjie's words clearly.

Especially when Long can fully feel his true feelings.

"Eh? Aren't my skills good?" Alicia said with a strange look on her face and looked at Long.

It was sitting on the grass, stretching its big head into the bowl that was half the size of its own body to absorb soup and food.

Takashi trembled and noticed Alicia's gaze.

It straightened up, completely absorbed the remaining soup on its face, looked at Alicia and said, "I like Alicia's craftsmanship very much, I think it's very good."

"Hehe~ As long as you like it." Alicia picked up the bowl with joy.

"Haha——" Qianjie made a mocking sound and continued to eat from his bowl honestly.

After eating, Long and Qianjie took their things and went to a nearby creek to clean them.

The night was not dark under the moonlight, at least the stream reflected a little light, and it was not completely invisible to ordinary people's vision, let alone them.

The stream flowed quietly, but the two people used water to wash dishes, causing the water to gurgling.

"Qianjie, why don't you want to leave that place?" Long asked Qianjie rather cutely, holding the big pot head and bowl for him.

"You don't have to know."

"Why? We just ran out of there not long ago, so there seems to be no need to cover up?"

"Ha..." Qianjie laughed: "I shouldn't have high expectations for you, after all, you seem to be a brainless person."

"Huh?...I do have no brain, so what does it matter?"

"You...(Qianjie Nose——)"

"What an annoying guy, okay, okay -" Qianjie put the bowl aside helplessly: "As you can see, I give them blood, it's that simple."

Long put the bowl aside, picked up a pot larger than himself and took the water from the stream. He wiped it with a light belt and looked at Qianjie: "You give it to them? It doesn't look like it."

Long: "Maybe you want to say that it's just some special forms, don't worry about it."/Qianjie: "It's just special forms——"

Qianjie: "..."

Long continued: "I don't think they hurt you with all kinds of sharp weapons and instruments of torture, and the way they obtained your blood can be called - goodwill."

"I don't think it's normal either."

"Qianjie, do you think this is normal?"

"..."

Qianjie stopped, his mask and Long Na's glorious head without an embodied face looked at each other for a long time, without saying a word.

He didn't leave a word until Qianjie stood up and left with the dishes he had washed.

"That's not normal, but that's the only thing I have..."

He didn't finish.

Long watched Qianjie leave silently, put the washed things on the light belt, and floated towards the fire.

"Yeah, you move very quickly~"

"Here, here's the reward." Alicia said and threw the fruit in her hand to Qianjie, who had put the things away and was sitting by the fire.

He caught it immediately and didn't eat it. He just sat there and turned the fruit in his hands.

The flickering light of the fire shone on him, making his mask flicker on and off - probably in line with his mood.

"Long, here." Alicia sat hugging her knees against the boulder. She called the fruit over to her knees, and then handed it the fruit that was as big as Long's head.

"Thank you, Alicia."

"Hehe~ You're welcome."

"Click..." A crisp biting sound sounded. Long simulated it, opened a cute doll opening on the big head, and took a bite of the fruit - making a very crisp sound.

Alicia watched with satisfaction as Long, who was sitting on her folded knees, was eating fruit, just like an elf in a fairy tale.

Then the clear sound of the fruit came from Alicia's mouth.

Her joyful voice was full of praise: "It seems that Long's body is like a super high-end storage cabinet. The shelf life of food is extended for a long time, and it is just as delicious as the day it was put in?"

Long looked at Alicia and "smiled" and said, "As long as you like it."

Alicia's face looked so tender under the flickering firelight.

Her smiling mouth and crooked eyes were so obvious, and they became more and more obvious after hearing what Long said.

Takashi, who was sitting on Alicia's lap, was so close to her that he didn't even have to waste any effort.

Alicia only needed to bend down slightly to bring her face close to Long.

In fact she did.

The sweet juice came to Long's "forehead" with her kiss

In a wonderful atmosphere.

Long found that his mind and perception seemed to be uncontrollably chaotic.

It seems that it is difficult for me to tell whether the sweet feeling coming from my "forehead" is juice or Alicia's kiss.

Alicia's face was red, and under the flames it was hard to tell whether it was the redness reflected by the firelight or the blush on her cheeks.

Long suppressed his restless mind and asked with some doubts: "Why do you want to say hello suddenly and do a variation of the kiss-to-cheek ceremony?"

"Hmm~~~" Alicia snorted a little shyly, then looked at Long and smiled slightly, stretched out her free hand and gently tapped the big head of its glorious doll: "Isn't this a greeting?"

"what?"

Alicia looked at its face: "In short, other girls are not allowed to kiss you like this, do you understand?"

"Oh, I see."

"..."

"Then can I kiss your forehead, Alicia?"

"Well~ let me think about it." Alicia said, pressing her fingers on her temples and mumbling cutely: "Is it okay or not?"

"Can? Can't? Can? Can't?"

"Well... ok! Just Takashi."

Alicia closed her eyes and leaned over.

He was stunned for a moment, stretched out his ribbon to lift Alicia's bangs, and kissed her forehead just like she did just now.

Separate the two.

Alicia's face was red and her eyes were watery.

This time Long could see clearly that it was her blushing face caused by her shy blood fluctuations, not the external firelight.

There seemed to be only two people in the dark night.

Nothing in the world matters anymore.

Even the wind at night seemed to slow down, in order not to disturb the emotional communication between the two.

The light released by the starry sky seemed to increase, shining its own light down to the ground, protecting both of them.

Under the gaze of the high-hanging moon, the two had an emotional exchange for the first time.

The unreasonable closeness and incomparable emotions between the two allow them to accept everything about each other without any hesitation.
