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

Moreover, Yukinoshita said that she could not clearly see the other person's appearance at that time, and even her body shape was only a very rough impression. There was no guarantee that she really saw Ashes as a male high school student of the right age!

So all this should be just an illusion, or an accident, or a coincidence!

Hikigaya kept giving hints to himself, telling him not to doubt that he was the 'immortal ashes' that attacked both the Masquerade and the Fire Mist Warrior that day.

However, a large number of details and evidence prove that he may be Ashes himself who made all those amazing actions that day.

Hikigaya isn't going to completely pretend that this doesn't exist.

So, why?Why did I get into a car accident that day and become a strange existence that burned and turned into ashes? Why did I also leave a strong shadow on both the Red World Apostle and the Fire Mist Warrior?

Did the ritual snake do something to him?The reason why he lost his memory was because the ritual snake had done something to him?

Hikigaya guessed in his mind and decided that next time when the ritual snake regained consciousness, he would definitely ask him about what happened that day.

"Is this all you know?"

Hikigaya originally thought that the inquiry was over, but unexpectedly Yukinoshita suddenly looked at him and said again: "Actually, I was not the only one who was in that hospital that day, but also my sister."

"Your sister?"

Hikigaya and Yuigahama were both slightly startled. They didn't expect Yukinoshita to have a sister.

Yukinoshita said with an embarrassed look:

"My sister, what do you say...since graduating from high school, she has become very interested in some supernatural things. Regardless of the opposition of her family, she ran out to join a very dangerous organization. My mother No matter what I said to her, it was useless, and later it even got to the point where we were about to sever the relationship.”

"Ahem, I said too much. All in all, my sister seemed to be investigating some things near the hospital that day. When the chaos happened, she contacted me in advance and asked me to stay as far away from that place as possible. . But I didn’t have time to obey, and that chaos happened. If it hadn’t been for the appearance of Ashes..."

At this point, Yukinoshita realized that she had made a mistake and quickly stopped talking.

Hikigaya and Yuigahama looked deeply at Yukinoshita, but neither took the initiative to say anything.

In this way, after a short silence, Yukinoshita regained her energy. She looked at Hikigaya with a complicated expression, and said seriously: "I know it's a bit abrupt for me to say this, but I still want to ask you. , Hikigaya-kun, are you the Ashes who appeared in that hospital that day?"

"..."

He didn't expect Hikigaya to ask himself this question so bluntly.

Hikigaya couldn't give the other party a clear answer because even he himself hadn't figured out what happened to him that day.

"I don't know. I was in a car accident that day, wasn't I?"

Hikigaya confused him with vague words.

In a sense, this means that he doesn't want to lie to Yukinoshita, which is an unnecessary stubbornness.

"Is that so..."

Yukinoshita nodded and said nothing more.

The service club once again fell into a long-lost silence.

Hikigaya and Yukinoshita each looked at the library books in their hands. After Yuigahama finished eating the bento, at first he wanted to do the same as the two of them and pretended to take out a book to read.

But soon, as her eyelids began to feel sleepy, she gave up this behavior and began to take out her mobile phone and start chatting with her friends.

Time gradually passed in such an environment, and the three of them were immersed in this strange and simple atmosphere.

"It's almost time."

I don't know how long it took, but Hikigaya stood up first, preparing to return to the classroom for the afternoon class.

"Aqi, do you still want the handmade biscuits from before?"

"what?"

Unexpectedly, Yuigahama would suddenly say such a thing. Hikigaya hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded irresistibly: "Well, no problem."

"Ha, that's great, I will definitely do better this time!"

"..."

Just when Hikigaya was thinking about what terrible battlefield supplies he would receive next, he suddenly found a gaze staring at him.

Looking along the line of sight out of habit, Hikigaya found that it was Yukinoshita looking at him with wide eyes, as if he wanted to say something to himself.

What is this guy doing?

"what happened to you?"

Hikigaya asked in confusion, but found that Yukinoshita said hesitantly: "I, I can also make handmade cookies. Do you want to bring some to the club next time?"

"what?"

Why are you asking me about this?Aren't you the president?

Hikigaya complained in his heart, but in the end he followed Yukinoshita's wishes and nodded slowly.

Don't do it.

After all, he had already felt Miss Yukino's cannibalistic gaze...

Chapter 38 Miss Marian, you don’t want your master to be wiped out by me next!

Chapter 38

"Speaking of which, what kind of apostle is Hunter Faliagni?" On the way home, Hikigaya walked and chatted with the doll Marian in his arms. "What can I say about his character and abilities? What?"

"...Well, Mr. Hikigaya, I don't think I should reveal anything about my master to you."

Marianne spoke awkwardly.

Although Hikigaya has never done anything bad to her after capturing her, and on the contrary has been providing her with the power of existence and preventing her from disappearing, she still remains loyal to her master Faliagni. As for leaking all the other party's information.

"Is that so? I originally thought that you had somewhat figured it out after going to Xingli Temple last time." Hikigaya said with a serious face, "My attitude is still the same as last time. I think obeying me, for you The best choice is to go with your master, otherwise, you can imagine what will happen if I launch an attack on your master as the leader of the masquerade party."

"This……"

Hikigaya's fake power successfully made the doll Marian hesitate.

After all, Marianne didn't know Hikigaya's specific status in the masquerade.

She only knew that the last time she went to Xingli Temple with Hikigaya, she saw an astonishing number of Red World Apostles treating the human male next to her as the leader of the alliance.

No matter how much Marian believed in her master, she was still not sure that the other party could survive in the face of such a powerful force.

"But don't worry, I have no intention of killing Faliagni. In other words, I have no intention of killing him yet. If you are willing to assist me, I can guarantee the safety of you and your master."

Hikigaya quietly used words to induce Marianne, and he believed that his inducement would definitely cause a reaction from the other party.

After all, everything he said was factual and could not be more true than words based on clear conclusions.

However, only one thing in all his words was false - that was the fact that he was the leader of the Masquerade Party.

He is not a real ritual snake, and he may not necessarily have the power to mobilize the Red World Apostle of the entire masquerade.

However, Hikigaya wasn't completely bluffing.

As long as any one of the three pillars is willing to obey his orders, it will be easy to destroy a hunter Faliagni.

"Then, you make the choice, Miss Marian." Hikigaya said calmly, "Choose to go against my will, until your master challenges me over his own strength, and finally the mayfly shakes the tree. Die normally. Or choose to accept my proposal and sign a contract with me to ensure the safety of your master and servant until the end..."

As he spoke, Hikigaya's expression was inexplicably tense.

Because he always has the ability to change his tone, and it will become "Miss Marian, you don't want your master to be eliminated by me next", and then enter the classic bull head session.

Ahem, it's just an illusion, it's just an illusion. I am a pure love warrior, and I will never do such a thing that betrays the organization!

While Hikigaya was complaining about himself, Marianne silently thought about the other person's words.

Then, she lowered her head silently and replied: "I understand, as long as I can ensure the safety of my master, I will do anything!"

"Haha, there's no need to go to that point."

Feeling that the atmosphere was becoming more and more like a classic Minotaur plot, Hikigaya quickly calmed himself down and stopped thinking about strange things.

"Anyway, I just want to hear about Faliagni from you. Just tell me about his character and abilities. There is no need to give any extra information."

Hikigaya spoke frankly, trying his best to express kindness to the doll Marian in his arms.

This is not because he has any special hobby. He has become a pervert who likes dolls like Faliagni. It is just to pave the way for his future plans.

Marianne nodded gratefully, and after a brief moment of tidying up, she said:

"My master, hunter Faliagni, is the Red World Demon King who came to this world centuries ago. Compared with other Red World Demon Lords, he does not have any particularly powerful abilities, nor is he good at complex freestyles. , the only thing he is good at is seeing through the nature of his prey.”

"With this power, he can immediately see through the capabilities and usage of the Noble Phantasm, and can also see through the characteristics of the enemy and find the enemy's weaknesses. For this reason, he has been collecting Noble Phantasms scattered around the world for a long time, and with the help of the treasure He strengthened himself with the power of the tool, and grew into the Red World Demon King Hunter he is today."

"..."

Marianne's words made Hikigaya nod slightly. He finally understood why Faliagni could see through his specialness so easily the last time they met.

Do you actually have special abilities in this area...

"What is Faliagni's purpose?" Hikigaya asked following the topic, "Why does he collect so much power of existence?"

"This..." Marianne was silent for a moment, and then said helplessly: "Although Mr. Hikigaya, you may not believe it, but the master did so much for me. In order to transform me who has always been with him from an ordinary doll. , and became a real existence, he continued to collect the power of existence, and even longed to activate the technique called Devouring the City to gain huge power of existence and activate the freedom of reincarnation."

"Eating the city? Reincarnation?"

Hikigaya had this information in his head.

The so-called devouring the city is a secret method used by the coffin tailor of the Red World Demon King in the past. After devouring a large number of humans at a fixed location, he created a large number of torches and made a mechanism called "Key Thread" on the torches.

Use this mechanism to decompose all the torches into the power of existence in an instant. This huge power of existence will turn all edible and inedible things into edible power like a snowball, but at the same time it will also It caused severe distortion of the world and triggered a crusade from the Fire Mist Warriors.

Reincarnation is a special form of freedom that can transform things that do not belong to this world into things in this world, and can also turn dead things into living things.

"In other words, everything the hunter is doing now is to pave the way for devouring the city and perform the ritual of reincarnation for you?"

"Ah."

Marianne nodded slightly, indicating that what she said was true.

Hikigaya became more and more aware of the situation of the Red Devil Hunter, and had a clearer understanding of what he was going to do next.

No matter what, everything the hunter is doing now is not allowed by him.

If the other party wanted to cross the line further, Hikigaya would have to take action to deal with this troublesome Red Demon King.

Chapter 39 Battle between Fire Mist Warriors

Chapter 39

After dinner, Hikigaya returned to his room.

He habitually wants to practice the use of freestyle and try to develop other freestyle skills suitable for him except Dragon Tail.

But at this moment, the window of his room was suddenly opened from the outside, and the figure of a girl wearing a black windbreaker walked in very calmly.

"Tell me, classmate Shana, why did you break into a private house with such a calm look on your face?"

In response to Hikigaya's complaints, Shana said very coldly: "It's just something. You are the one who occupies this body now, right? You are the one who broke into the house privately, right?"

"This……"

Shana's words left Hikigaya unable to refute.

He has still disguised himself as a powerful and ancient Fire Mist Warrior, so it is naturally impossible for him to admit that he is an ordinary Chiba high school student.

"Forget it." Hikigaya sighed and said bravely: "Why are you coming to my house so late? You can't sleep alone. Do you want to listen to me tell a bedtime story?"

"Do you want to fight with me? You want to fight with me!" Shana said as she took out the tall sword from her windbreaker.

"Uh, it's my fault, please don't do it here."

"Hmph, your character is really annoying."

"..."

Seeing Shana sitting down on his bed nonchalantly, Hikigaya had no choice but to sit at the desk in the room.

In order to prevent himself from realizing that he was in the same room with a girl of the same age, he chose to take the initiative and said: "So why did you suddenly come to me? There must be some reason, right?"

"Of course, haven't you noticed it until now?" Shana looked at Hikigaya speechlessly, "Now a new Fire Mist Warrior has arrived in this city!"

This...do I need to be aware of it?Could it be that the Fire Mist Warriors are stand-in messengers, and could they be attracted to each other?

When Hikigaya was confused, Tianjie Jiehuo spoke at the right time: "The Red World Demon King contracted by Hikigaya is in very poor condition, which is likely to cause him to lack the special vision that normal Fire Mist Warriors have."
