After getting lost in the abandoned village, they gradually became confused and infatuated

Like the sea breeze.

So, where is this?

Have you been caught in the shadow world again?

How is it so unlucky?

Optics Valley Falcon thought so.

But the difference is that this time, Optics Valley Falcon did not feel the eerie coldness or the purest malice of the dead towards the living.

On the contrary, there is a comfortable feeling of spring blossoms.

Optics Valley Falcon was confused and wanted to take a few steps in a random direction to take a look.

But before he could take a step, the clear and melodious Kagura bell sounded from the distant white.

"Ding bell~"

It was distant and ethereal, which inspired him.

"Ding bell~"

The Kagura bell rang again, a little louder than before, as if calling him.

No matter where this place is, let’s follow the sound and take a look.

Optics Valley Falcon made this judgment, and then walked resolutely towards the white.

There was no east, west, north, or south, and no sense of the flow of time. The Optics Valley Falcon just kept walking forward, accompanied only by the sound of rustling footsteps.

Go forward, go forward, keep going.

Whenever he is about to lose his way, Kagura's bell will ring in time.

Like the Big Dipper in the night sky, it guides him.

I do not know how long it has been......

Optics Valley Falcon's feet were already sore and swollen from walking, and there were beads of sweat on his face, but he still showed no signs of reaching the end.

The ringtone of Kagura is still in that distant place.

Gritting his teeth, Guanggu Falcon dragged his heavy steps and continued to move forward.

With every step, my legs became more sore and my breathing became heavier.

There is no doubt that this is a test of wills.

"Ha ha......"

"Damn!"

“It’s really exhausting just looking at the mountains!”

"When...is it the boss!"

Optics Valley Falcon wiped the sweat from his face and couldn't help but complain.

The strengthened body still cannot withstand the long-term consumption.

He now wishes he could just lie down on the ground and rest to his heart's content!

However, the bell in the distance seemed to tell him that it was not time to rest yet, so he should work harder and move forward for a while.

It will be here soon.

There is no choice but to persevere.

Although his feet had already gotten out of the blisters, he still moved closer to the source of Kagura's ringtone step by step.

Time passes in this blank white.

one day?

a month?

Still a year?

Optics Valley Falcon doesn't know.

There was no clock and no sun, so he couldn't feel the time.

Just from his own subjective feeling, he has come a long, long way.

It had been so long that even his senses were numb, and he couldn't feel tired or hungry. He only knew that he should keep moving forward.

During this long and boundless journey, Optics Valley Falcon's consciousness gradually faded away.

Everything in front of him also became blurry.

The wind blowing in front of you is mixed with a light salty smell.

He seemed to have fallen into the deep sea and into his mother's arms.

Optics Valley Falcon's consciousness was about to sink into darkness.

at this time!

The Kagura bell suddenly rings!

Not on the other side, but so close, as if you can touch it with your hands!

The Optics Valley Falcon started shaking like an electric shock!

Then, I opened my eyes.

There was something soft under her head, and in front of her eyes were black hair falling like a waterfall.

At the end of the hair, there is a pair of eyes as bright and beautiful as the stars, and a gentle smile as refreshing as the spring flowers.

It was a girl about his age.

But her face was surrounded by a layer of faint white mist that couldn't be wiped off.

Like a layer of frosted glass.

No matter how hard Kotani Falcon focused, he couldn't distinguish the girl's appearance.

All I know is that her knee pillow is soft and her voice is peaceful.

"you're awake."

The girl said so.

The sound flows slowly like a clear stream, bringing the Optics Valley Falcon indescribable refreshment and comfort.

Optics Valley Falcon blinked.

"you are?"

"Just an old acquaintance."

The girl said softly, and at the same time, she gently covered Optics Valley Falcon's eyes with her warm palms.

Old acquaintance?

Kotani Hayabusa always felt that this voice was very familiar, but he couldn't tell who it was.

After searching through the memories in my mind, only the girl's shy moan from that hazy night matched it.

Optics Valley Falcon said subconsciously.

"That night, you gave me the fragment of power of the Guanggu family?"

The voice fell.

Mitsuya Hayabusa clearly felt that the girl's palm became warm.

Seems shy?

Optics Valley Falcon is not sure.

"Um......"

"it's me."

"Because at that time, you desperately needed some help."

"I couldn't just sit back and do nothing...so I had to break the rules."

rule?

What are the rules?

Kotani Falcon wanted to ask, but the girl spoke first.

"How's the protection... going?"

Optics Valley Falcon shook his head.

"I don't know how to use Kago."

"I just know that this thing will take the initiative to appear when it touches something bad."

"So, I will beat the digested residue of the shadow with my fists, and I will also take the initiative to jump into the deep well and fight to the death with the shadow."

"Fortunately, Kagome always appears in time."

After listening to Mitsuya Hayabusa's words, the girl gave him a gentle hug.

The soft palms gently fiddled with his bangs and stroked his cheeks, feeling the traces left on the young man's face by the hardships that ordinary people could not overcome.

A drop of crystal tears hit his forehead.

"Are you... crying?"

The girl sniffed and wiped the tears from his forehead.

"I just feel... it's been really hard for you along the way."

"But I can't help."

Kotani Hayabusa's eyes were covered by the girl and he couldn't see her expression.

However, through the sound, one can see a quiet and peaceful girl like Yamato Nadeshiko, frowning out of concern for her beloved.

This is the only way to soothe the tiredness of your loved one.

"You helped me a lot, a lot."

"Without your help, I wouldn't have been able to tame the Yappongi alone, let alone enter the shrine and go through so many hardships."

"So, thank you."

"No matter what the reason, you don't have to blame yourself."

"Moreover, when I first entered this village, you helped me time and time again."

"It was you who reminded me in time when I pierced the doll, so I made the next plan."

"So please let me thank you again."

"You really helped me a lot, a lot."

The girl's hair hung on Kotani Hayabusa's cheek.

Warm and moist lips kissed his forehead gently.

A dragonfly touches the water, without any trace of lust.

But this kiss was more joyful and gratifying than any other time.

It seems that the hardships along the way have become worth it.

Jingle~

The Kagura bell suddenly rang.

It's like an alarm clock, reminding the two intimate people.

A certain time limit has arrived.

The girl reluctantly touched Kotani Hayabusa's face, as if she wanted to imprint this touch firmly in her soul.

Then, he placed an object in Optics Valley Falcon's hand.

"Have a good rest..."
