The faded person who shuttles between the everyday and the extraordinary

"It's really hurtful. If you don't want it, just give it back to me."

"No, I didn't say no." Hayasaka dodged his grasping hand, opened the bag directly, grabbed a piece of butter cookie and shook it, sighing as if he had suffered a loss: "This is what I'm doing. Time comes, how about the interest on the mental damages you tortured me?"

"up to you."

"Hmm~ The smell...it's not bad, but it doesn't feel like it was made by a newbie? And it smells..."

Hayasaka, who ate the cookie in two bites, wiped the crumbs from the corner of his mouth with his thumb and frowned inexplicably. When he noticed his eyes slowly moving away, he stared at him with half-closed eyes: "Although I think It's unlikely, but Mr. An Yan, you shouldn't..."

Although Hayasaka Ai's words were very respectful, her tone was extremely cold, as if she had guessed his hidden secret.

This made him subconsciously want to turn around and run away, but Hayasaka Ai quickly chased after her. Kaguya, who was immersed in the joy of receiving the gift, couldn't see the corner and pushed her to the wall, and "--pop! !" He slapped his ear.

He was startled, lowered his head reflexively, looked at the girl who was staring at him expressionlessly, and hesitated: "I said, you...?"

"——Can't you just be a human being?"

The girl with extremely cold eyes interrupted him with a tone that sounded like the cold wave in Siberia.

But this strange statement made him a little embarrassed: "If I am not a human being...what do I mean to you?"

Hayasaka took a deep breath and said bluntly: "——Those biscuits are not handmade at all!"

"...As expected of you, you discovered it so quickly?"

"Are you admitting it?"

An Yan showed an expression that didn't know how to answer: "Well... well, after all, I'm not the kind of person who refuses to admit his mistakes..."

"Why do this?"

"I don't know! Kaguya actually cares so much about a box of biscuits... I was just borrowing some money openly..."

"There should be many ways to borrow money!" Hayasaka Ai's face was full of seriousness and displeasure.

But as soon as he said this, An Yan, whose face was full of embarrassment and shame, couldn't help but want to roll his eyes: "Are you serious? If I can borrow it normally, do I still need to spend so much money? After all, I said at the beginning that I bought it at a bargain, right? How did I know that Kaguya would have so many thoughts? I’m also dizzy!"

"Um..." Hayasaka, who realized that he had made a mistake, simply turned away to calm down, then put on a serious expression again, and scolded sternly: "In any case, this is your fault! But since you have lied to me, , just lie to me until the end!"

"...You actually skipped the topic just now at this time?"

"That's the most important thing!"

"No...I thought you would insist on me confessing."

"...After all, it was the first time Kaguya-sama received a gift from his family. It would not be a good idea to break a child's dream." Hayasaka Ai hesitated for a while and sighed with resignation, and told him: "If you If you know you're wrong, just make it up to her somewhere else. Don't worry about Cookie, she won't find out anyway."

"....I'll buy some good cookies tomorrow."

"Take Kaguya's money?"

"There's no other way! I don't have any money! Why don't you give me some?"

"You... are really bad." As soon as he said these words, Hayasaka's face turned extremely gloomy: "You actually want to borrow money from a girl to buy a gift for another girl?"

"No...there's no need to say it so suddenly, right? Kaguya is my sister, and you and I are not the objects of ambiguity or pursuit. If you don't want to borrow money, you can just say so! There's no need to sarcastically say something like this to me Bar???"

"Then I won't borrow it."

Hayasaka Ai seemed to be waiting for his words. She didn't even want to answer immediately. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pressed it on her Tianlingai: "...What should I do? I suddenly want to hit you?"

"I'll yell, and I'll see how you explain it then?" Hayasaka Ai didn't panic at all, but instead raised the corners of her mouth with a cheerful smile.

It was obvious that Anyan and Kaguya had caused her a lot of trouble on weekdays, and she was actually very happy to be able to take revenge on the siblings once in a while.

"I really..."

He tried his best to smile, but for a moment he really didn't know what to do.

It was also at this time... Kaguya, who had recovered from the joy, had followed the sound of the two arguing and came over, and turned to stone when she saw the two.

She was a maid in name, but she was actually a sister to her. She was banging her brother against the wall, and her brother was "stroking" her sister's head, and both of them were looking at each other with smiles.

This picture is such that no matter how unimaginative it is, anyone can think of a lot of things. Even Kaguya, who is inexperienced in world affairs, thought of many things in a trance. She unconsciously turned pale and slowly said:

"Brother... Hayasaka... what are you... doing?"

""? ! ""

The two noticed her appearance, subconsciously looked over and quickly pushed each other away to get closer to each other.

"Misunderstanding! This is a misunderstanding! Kaguya-sama! We didn't do anything! There is no relationship at all!"

"Yes! It's just that this guy is pursuing me and I refused! So we don't have any relationship yet!"

After Hayasaka Ai finished speaking, An Yan also quickly explained, but the content... was somewhat retaliatory.

This also made Hayasaka Ai look over suddenly, her gaze as sharp as if she wanted to kill someone.

But before she could accuse them, she first noticed that Kaguya looked at them with a strange look on their faces.

Kaguya's face didn't know whether it should be described as pale or something else. Hayasaka glared at An Yan and quickly stepped forward to explain: "Master Kaguya, we really have nothing! You believe me!"

"Well...well, I believe you..."

Kaguya nodded reluctantly, with such a distracted look that he didn't seem to believe her no matter how he looked at it.

When she didn't know it, Hayasaka Ai was pursuing Anyan, and Anyan seemed to have those feelings for Hayasaka Ai.

In other words, the two people who are the most important and closely related to each other in their lives...when they don't even know it, their relationship has been further sublimated?

Is this considered a close kiss?then what? ——Kaguya couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment, but she had an inexplicable illusion that they were going to abandon her, and she felt a little bit beaten up, and besides that... there was something unspeakable. Mixed emotions.

In the following time, Hayasaka Ai tried hard to explain clearly, but Kaguya was distracted and didn't listen at all.

But An Yan doesn't care much about this, and even feels that such a misunderstanding is a good thing, otherwise Kaguya really becomes a brother control, and maybe he will be influenced into a sister control... Therefore, a moderate distance seems to be necessary. .

Of course, he actually still wanted to be close to Kaguya, but after all, he was not related by blood, so it was difficult for him to manage the distance. Relying on false kinship, Kaguya was overly dependent on him, and he was still somewhat psychologically burdened.

So he is also worried that if the relationship is too good, he will be completely disgusted if things are exposed... There is no way, although he looks like this on the surface, but in reality he is not really a heartless person who can completely ignore these things.

Therefore, with an attitude of not caring about the matter, he was ready to watch Hayasaka Ai's excitement from the sidelines.

But this also caused the misunderstanding to gradually delay indefinitely under his neglect, and it could never be completely resolved.

Chapter 43 Origin Night·Demigod Lani 4K

That night, after Ai Hayasaka fled in front of Ai Hayasaka who was gritting his teeth from beginning to end and Kaguya, who had always been melancholy, Anyan went back to the room by herself.

After dinner, he was drinking Coke, lying on the window sill, looking at the Lani doll that was placed next to him, looking up at the bright full moon in the night sky, and recalling what happened during this period, he unconsciously followed Think back to the beginning - before you came to this world.

The night before arriving in this world, it was not a coincidence that every night and every day was full moon.

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

It was a village located on a vast plateau. Outside the village was endless grassland, but there was no one inside the village.

The moonlight shines on the grassland, like a layer of silver gauze, covering the entire earth.

The grass on the grassland swayed, as if dancing gracefully. Their colors became soft and warm under the moonlight, like an emerald ocean.

And it was in this picturesque scene that the plainly dressed young man An Yan walked through the village and stepped onto the wilderness-like grassland, looking at the two moons in the sky, one bright and one dark, aimlessly. Wandering around.

Normally, he would never leave the village because it was too dangerous outside. However, the village was completely deserted. Everyone except him was basically on the way back home when they were about to lose consciousness.

But for someone like him who was born in this village, this "Moon People" village is his hometown.

The other people in the village all come from a village called "Dianhuo Village" below the plateau.

The ancestors of the villagers summoned the epileptic fire in desperation. The so-called epileptic fire sounds difficult to explain, but it is actually the "fire of chaos".

The essence of the power of the alien gods originating from another world is to exterminate all life, burn out all will, and return all things to chaos, which represents the will to destroy that denies all good things.

It's just that a long time ago, some villagers were afraid of the epileptic fire that would drive all users crazy, so they left the epileptic fire village to seek the protection of other gods.

Among them, An Yan's ancestors came to the Moonlight Altar to marry the remaining Moon People and many strong men on this land, and also began to believe in various gods.

From the six foreign gods to the demigods who are the descendants of incomplete gods, they have believed in all the gods in batches, which can be said to be the ultimate manifestation of improvising.

And all of this is to prevent future generations from being affected by epilepsy and becoming crazy, but...

Even if they frantically take all measures, even perform various weird rituals, and sacrifice their dismembered family members or their own organs to the evil god, it will not help.

After all, everyone is still crazy... Is this the price of getting involved in uncontrollable power?

"So, what is all this for?"

An Yan, who was traveling aimlessly, couldn't help but laugh at himself when he recalled all the pathetic things in the village.

However, he himself didn't know where he was going or where he would die.

However, as he gradually tired from walking, he sat on the edge of the cliff and looked at the swamp below, watching the walking corpses wandering among them, and his heart was full of depression.

"...What the hell is going on? Why did things turn out like this? I don't expect to have a prosperous and cheating life. I at least have a few normal people with whom I can communicate."

Born in a world that was on the verge of collapse, he looked at the walking dead below and almost wanted to cry.

From birth to now, he has lived on this plateau called "Moonlight Altar". He has never seen the sun since he was a child. There are two moons for no reason, and there is an oversized golden tree on the far side of the earth. The sky on his side was mostly obscured.

There were two moons in the sky that were much larger than the moons he knew in the past. One was the full moon called Lenara, and the other was the dark moon named Lani.

As for why it is a person's name, it really represents a person, or in other words, a god.

One of them was the heir to their family, the Kaliya royal family, the Moon Princess Rani.

However, it is worth mentioning that a long time ago, their family served the last queen of the Kallia royal family - Queen Lenara of the Full Moon.

But the queen's spirit seemed to be abnormal, so the family replaced her with the heir, the demigod Lani.

Although he is only a demigod, he is said to control his own laws (laws), the laws of the cold night, the stars, and the moon.

Even though the starry sky is not normal now and has been sealed by another demigod, the dim moon in the sky is still the most important manifestation of his will.

.... He doesn’t know if it’s true or false. He even doesn’t understand why he can change his faith so casually. His family is really a believer?Doesn’t it seem strange that God doesn’t save them?

However, even if he doubts his own faith, at this time he can only look at the dark moon in the sky and pray silently, hoping that one day he can leave this ghost place.

Because although the place he lives in is safe, it is also quite remote, but he doesn’t know whether it was a person in the village who had the wrong nerve to come into contact with epilepsy, which is considered taboo, or whether it was a problem caused by his ancestors’ exposure to epilepsy. One after another, everyone started to go crazy. .

Even his parents went crazy a month ago and were probably on their way back home, which made him suspect that this was a world like a madhouse.

After a period of sadness, life returned to normality with the passage of time, but he was also tired of living in the village waiting for death or madness.

Although he couldn't deal with the monsters wandering around the world, he still started his journey.

"...If there really is a god, the god who would create such a strange world must be some kind of evil god, right?"

Thinking of where he would die, or when he would follow in the footsteps of the villagers, Anyan couldn't help but sigh to himself.

But he, who had been talking to himself for the past month, suddenly heard a strange female voice coming from behind him.

"——Evil God? This is an interesting guess."

"...I finally had a hallucination?"

After so many years in this closed village, this was the first time he heard a stranger's voice in so many years. He couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead and became worried, fearing that he would go crazy tomorrow.

But this made a helpless voice come from behind again: "...My last believer, how about you look back first and see the God you believe in?"

"...Can auditory hallucinations still lead to dialogue?" He muttered to himself but still subconsciously followed the voice's advice and turned around cautiously.

In the grassland that I was accustomed to seeing, there was an extra chair for some reason.

The chair that appeared inexplicably was covered with a few books for some reason, and sitting on top of the books was a petite girl.

The girl sitting high up and looking down at her has jewel-like blue eyes. Her short blue hair hanging down on her shoulders looks slightly curly. Her light blue skin and extremely delicate face make her look like a doll. Can be picky.

But there were strange runes on his face, his left eye was inexplicably closed, and he wore a large white and blue witch hat on his head.

What's more concerning is that she obviously has four hands. If you look carefully, she seems to have the characteristics of a doll...

"....Is it really a doll?"

"Okay, but let me introduce myself." The doll girl put her hand on her chest with a faint smile: "I am the witch Lani, and I am also the symbol of the dark moon in your belief."

....How can a half-empty belief be responded to?Is there such a convenient and useful thing in the world?The people in the village look crazy, but they are not so stupid after all?

An object of faith that he had never seen before, or a god who was forced to believe in, appeared in front of him, making An Yan speechless for a moment in shock.

Although he really wanted to ask now, why did his god get a chair but not sit on it, but instead went to the trouble of getting some books to sit on?

Could it be that you just want to be better than yourself?God’s words…shouldn’t be that childish, right?

"What's wrong? From the look of you...you're not thinking of anything disrespectful, are you?"

"——How, how could it be possible! There is absolutely no such thing! My faith in you can be learned from time to time!"
