I, Hikigaya, the snake of the red world god's ritual!

Hikigaya said and looked at Shana, "The power of existence is also a necessity for Fire Mist Warriors. Collecting enough power of existence will be more beneficial to your future battles. The most important thing is to get a powerful one." It is a stage where players can compete and grow as quickly as possible..."

"No Road Race No Road Race No Road Race!!!"

Regarding Hikigaya's words, Shana made inexplicable angry words. Although she was a little out of breath, she still said with an unhappy face: "Did you just accept it so easily? The Daimei Poem will continue to expand in the future. , until the rules of the entire world are completely changed!!”

"Yes, but so what?" Hikigaya said nonchalantly, "Since this is a confirmed rule, all we can do is accept it. Ultimately, I don't care what the rules of this world become. No matter what, one more destiny poem will not make any difference to me, as long as I see what I see, it is enough to be able to see it until the end!"

"..."

Shana was completely silenced by Hikigaya's words, and she didn't speak again for a long time.

Just when Hikigaya thought the other party had ended the conversation, Shana spoke again: "In short, I will not give up! I will definitely destroy the Taimei Psalm and stop the masquerade conspiracy."

"Yes, then go ahead." Hikigaya shook his head, "However, I still recommend you to participate in the Daimei Psalm battle. After all, aside from the experience you can gain from fighting, the rewards of the power of existence are very generous. It will definitely be of great use by then.”

"What's the use? As long as the Fire Mist Warrior rests, he can naturally restore the power of existence. I'm not the kind of Fire Mist Warrior with personal desires. I won't collect the power of existence to do boring things!"

Looking at Shana with a stubborn look on her face, Hikigaya sighed silently. He really didn't want to communicate with a guy like this who couldn't listen to what others were saying.

"If that's what you think, I'm too lazy to say anything more, but I'll give you a hint. The rules of the Da Ming Psalm are not unchangeable, or on the contrary, it can be seen from the information revealed so far. , Da Ming Psalm will continue to change the rules in the future, making battles more and more complex. This means that no matter how strong a person is, they may overturn if they are not familiar with the rules. You should be able to understand what this means. Bar?"

"What do you mean?"

Looking at Shana who looked confused, Hikigaya sighed: "Forget it, if you can't even figure this out, I think you should give up the idea of ​​destroying the Taimei Psalm. That will definitely not be a problem for you. Any good thing will only make you fall into the abyss of eternal destruction."

After saying that, he calmly took a sip of the tea on the table and stopped making any further remarks.

……

At the same time, on the streets of Chiba City.

An old man holding a cane walked slowly in the middle of the road. On the road he walked, a pedestrian who was a torch unconsciously lost his existence.

At the moment when the flame was about to extinguish, the old man silently put away the last flame of the torch and integrated it into his body.

"Chiba City, the changes in this city are really scary. However, Daimei Shi...it seems that this time the world will be completely in chaos."

With that said, the red apostle named [Bone Collector] Mira completely disappeared on the sidewalk and completely lost her trace.

……

The top of a building in Chiba.

A tall woman with a single blond ponytail and a leather jacket was carrying a strange book and silently looked up at the strange city below her.

"It's such a lifeless city."

"Hahahaha, you said the same thing when you were in Europe!" The woman carried a book on her shoulder and laughed wildly. "I don't think it's your eyes that are alive, my lovely goblet Marjoline Do! "

"Humph!"

The woman named Marjolene Duo punched the book hard and said coldly: "It seems that this trip is well worth it. The Daming Psalm seems to be an interesting and good thing. However, in this city, It seems to have other flavors, there seems to be more than one."

"It does smell." The Red Demon King in the book laughed, "It's the smell of alcohol in your breath, hahahaha, hahahaha..."

"Shut up, stupid Mark!" Marjorie pulled the book until she was speechless, "Fire Mist Warriors, masquerades, and the poem of destiny... Wow, it seems that things are going to be very serious this time. It’s interesting.”

Chapter 36 He is like a hero saving the world!

Chapter 36

"Oh, it's so troublesome."

In the early morning, Hikigaya watched TV and ate toast smeared with jam made in a bread machine, paired with black coffee with too much sugar.

Although it is said that sighing will make happiness slip away, Hikigaya couldn't feel the slightest bit of happiness at the moment.

Even drinking hot coffee filled with sugar and milk did not relax my spirit at all.

After the story about the Daimei Psalm was spread yesterday, Shana and Sakai Yuji came to him to exchange information about the Daimei Psalm and discuss future plans.

But Hikigaya didn't care about these things at all. Faced with Shana's proposal, he just kept talking a lot of meaningless nonsense.

This is not that he does not attach great importance to the Daimei Psalm. On the contrary, he can feel the impact that the existence of the Daimei Psalm may have on the entire Chiba City in the future. Even the world may be involved in a huge crisis. .

However, Hikigaya's status prevents him from simply focusing on the small things in front of him like Shana and the others.

After all, he had been to the Masquerade Headquarters and seen the group of Red World Demon Kings on the sky fortress called Xingli Palace.

At that time, Hikigaya was sure that the Great Ming Psalms were not an important matter at all. Without the Great Ming Psalms, there would also be small Ming Psalms, Capital Psalms, Komachi Psalms and other things.

Worse still, if the Zero Hour Mystery in Sakai Yuuji's body is discovered, the masquerade party won't even need to use the Taiming Psalm, and can go directly to the next step of the plan.

Yes, it is this 'next step plan' that is the real key, the real purpose that the masquerade wants to achieve by distorting the world.

What Hikigaya was thinking about was whether he, as the nominal leader of the masquerade party, should stop this plan from proceeding.

And if he wants to stop it, how can he accomplish his goal and prevent the plot of "why did your majesty rebel?"...

It was under so many complicated thoughts that Hikigaya spent the whole night in a numb mood, barely getting any stable sleep.

"Hey, brother, did you hear what Komachi said?"

"Well, I heard it."

"Tsk, this perfunctory answer, you really didn't hear anything!"

"So what am I supposed to do?"

"Why are you so self-conscious at this time?"

"Nonsense, because of you, I now have a sense of distrust towards the opposite sex. If I can't get married in the future, what will I do when I get old?"

Hearing Hikigaya's complaints, Komachi smiled and said, "When the time comes, Komachi will help you find a solution, Onii-chan!"

"Ah this..."

The words coming from his sister made Hikigaya inexplicably feel his heartbeat speeding up.

"I will work hard to make money and send you to a nursing home."

"...She is indeed my sister."

Biqigu sighed helplessly.

Then, go to school.

……

When he arrived at Sobu High School, Hikigaya walked into the classroom calmly and sat in his seat as inconspicuously as before.

"Good morning, Ah Qi."

"...?"

The sudden greeting startled Hikigaya, and when he raised his head, he saw Yuigahama waving to him with a bright smile.

"Did you eat yesterday's snack?"

"what?"

Hikigaya was stunned for a moment, recalling the charcoal core that looked like some kind of battlefield logistics supply food, and said very against his will: "Well, I ate some of it, it tastes okay."

This was a lie. When Hikigaya returned home, Hikigaya used the pack of battlefield food as a snack for Kamakura, the family cat. As a result, Kamakura disliked it, and now it is placed in the room as a tribute to suppress evil.

"That's great." Yuigahama did not doubt Hikigaya's words and said with a smile, "Then, see you in the club activity room at noon!"

With that said, Yuigahama turned around and left his seat, ignoring Hikigaya's confusion.

noon.

Hikigaya wandered to the club of the service club and found a certain beauty with long black hair sitting here as usual, flipping through the library book in her hand.

Hikigaya deftly found a place to sit next to him, and found that the club's door was opened again, and a panting Yuigahama Yui walked in from the outside.

"I found an excuse to sneak out with my friends. It took me a while. I'm not late, am I?"

"This……"

Both Hikigaya and Yukinoshita showed surprised expressions.

"What's the point of being late or not? After all, this club doesn't have clear working hours, and it doesn't even know what the work is." Hikigaya said delicately.

"In a sense, it is impossible to refute." Yukinoshita showed a submissive attitude to Hikigaya's words for the first time, and was very disappointed by this.

"Haha, then you can rest all the time, that's great!" Yuigahama found a seat and sat down nonchalantly, leaning against Yukinoshita's body.

Tsk tsk, what is this?Beautiful girl stickers?So what's the point of me staying here? Am I just a decoration in some lily anime?

Hikigaya complained in his mind while observing the expressions of Yukinoshita and Yuigahama.

When he confirmed that the time was almost up, he took the initiative to speak to the two of them: "Speaking of which, you two went to Chiba Second Municipal Hospital three weeks ago, right?"

"..."

Upon hearing Hikigaya's words, the chopsticks in Yuigahama's hand suddenly stopped.

Yukinoshita also inexplicably stopped flipping through the library.

After such a short silence, Yukinoshita nodded slowly and said: "Yes, that day, I happened to be in that hospital because of some things."

"You are actually here, Yukino?" Yuigahama said unexpectedly, "I was in the lobby of the hospital at that time, and I didn't expect you to be there too."

"Yeah, but I didn't enter the hospital. Instead, I sat in my car at home and waited outside the hospital." Yukinoshita said, looking a little dodgey, as if she was avoiding something.

"Did you observe anything unusual at that time?" Hikigaya took advantage of this opportunity to investigate as much as possible about the two people's knowledge of the second human crisis. "It doesn't matter if you know anything."

"..."

After hearing Hikigaya's words, Yukinoshita and Yuigahama both fell into thinking.

Yuigahama was the first to speak: "I'm sorry, I really didn't see anything at the time. I just remember that I was sitting in the lobby of the hospital. Suddenly there was a violent explosion around me, and then a lot of fire struck in all directions. Come... Then, I fell asleep for no reason, and when I woke up, everything was back to normal."

"Ah."

Yuigahama's statement was exactly the same as last time. Hikigaya nodded, and then looked at Yukinoshita Yukino. He could realize that Yukinoshita might be able to give him an unexpected answer on this matter.

"I, I..." Yukinoshita hesitantly clasped her fingers, as if recalling something very bad, "That day, when I was waiting outside the hospital, I suddenly saw some strange figures in the Second Municipal Hospital. The surroundings flickered. And, I saw a man whose body was full of ash. He seemed to be fighting those weird figures and protecting the entire hospital from being affected."

"Although I personally don't believe in this kind of thing and have never watched similar TV movies, at that time, I seemed to really see a hero who was saving the world!"

Chapter 37 The truth about ashes

Chapter 37

A figure shrouded in ashes who looks like a hero saving the world?

If the person who said this was not Yukinoshita, Hikigaya would not be able to believe that such a thing happened.

But since Yukinoshita said it, Hikigaya reluctantly believed it.

Because Hikigaya knew that Yukinoshita couldn't lie, and he never bothered to tell such boring lies.

However, in this way, all the clues have been basically confirmed. In the second human crisis, that is, the day of Hikigaya's car accident, the Masquerade and the Fire Mist Warriors did have an unprecedented and amazing confrontation, and that In the end, an unidentified Ash Warrior solved everything.

It's really strange to think about it. Who could that figure in ashes be?

Why did the other party not only target the Red World Apostle when it came to saving the world, but also included the Fire Mist Warriors on the scene into the attack range?

One mystery after another emerged in Hikigaya's mind, and Hikigaya couldn't help but ask again:

"Have you seen what Ashes looks like? Does he look anything special?"

"Although I only caught a glimpse of it, that figure seems to be wearing the uniform of Sobu High School..." Yukinoshita said with an uncertain face, "Moreover, his body shape looks like a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old, specifically. Because it was burning all the time, I couldn’t see clearly at the time.”

"That's it."

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy from Sobu High School, and he happened to be at the Chiba Second Municipal Hospital that day.

In such a narrow range, it seems quite convenient to find...

No, wait!Speaking of which, wasn't he the one who met the requirements in the hospital that day? !

Hikigaya suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but step back. At the critical moment, he fell to the ground without being embarrassed, but the chaos in his heart could not be controlled.

No no no!

Although it was the opening ceremony that day and the number of boys from Sobu High School who would be in the hospital was very small, it was definitely not none!
