How should I put it? I guess everyone has become more patient.

They care more about each other's thoughts and are less likely to give up. After going through two copies, each player's personality will be distorted, and they know that life and death are the biggest contradictions.

Everything is within control, and this little spark makes reality completely different from the copy.

Yuki sat cross-legged with his back leaning on the coffee table. His undisguised gaze could not be hidden from anyone. Hayasaka Ai and Sakurajima Mai, who were busy, also slowed down their movements, feeling that something was wrong.

"Why do I feel like he got a bargain?"

"Yeah, I also feel like he has tricked me. Senior, why don't you go take a rest?"

"You should go and rest. After all, you just came from Tokyo."

"No, no, no, senior sister, you take a rest first."

Yuki couldn't hear clearly what the two were saying, but he smiled sinisterly. This was also within his calculations. The biggest commonality between Hayasaka Ai and Sakurajima Mai was that they were both strong-willed.

No, it should be said that every veteran player is very strong.

Sure enough, despite what they said, no one took the initiative to step back. Instead, they cooperated very well, and the monotonous sound of cutting vegetables echoed in the room.

Absolutely safe and absolutely comfortable.

As Yuki watched, he felt his eyelids becoming heavier and heavier. His nerves, which had been tortured in the devil's hospital for more than twenty hours, began to relax, and even his thinking became very slow.

He moved his nose and smelled a refreshing scent, sweet and quiet, which dispelled all the haze.

Mm, the taste of everyday life.

Jingle Bell.

The sea breeze blew in, Hayasaka Ai raised her hand to smooth her long hair beside her ears, and put the chopped red peppers into the box.

The rice is almost ready. I just need to stir-fry it. Is Mai making curry? She's quite good at it.

She glanced to the side and met Mai's gaze.

“The meal was good.”

"Thank you very much. You are very professional. You must have done this a lot, right?"

"No, just occasionally." Hayasaka Ai-chan said that there was a professional chef cooking, raised her long eyebrows, and suddenly found that the gaze behind her disappeared.

So she and Mai turned around and saw Yuki lying on the sofa, sleeping soundly.

The sea breeze blew through the black hair, making it seem particularly quiet. The two of them were stunned by this scene and both felt it was a little strange.

Yuki is not noisy, and is even more taciturn in the dungeon, but his ruthlessness and confidence are so impressive that people forget his age.

"This pig-head is sleeping in the middle of the day."

"Maybe he's sleepy, or maybe he hasn't slept since returning."

“No way, I should have rested well after returning, but I just lay down on the bed without even taking off my clothes.” Mai was a little puzzled, but soon realized something.

Yuki is different from them. He has a lot of things to consider. Leaving the copy is just the beginning of another journey.

"It seems that you already understand." Hayasaka Ai didn't say much. She walked to the table and opened a thick notebook, which was full of various information, all of which were intelligence extracted from the forum.

She pursed her lips, suddenly filled with shame for some of her thoughts yesterday.

This is all my fault. I dragged him into this.

Hayasaka Ai looked at Yuki and took the blame. After all, from her perspective, it was Yuki who was against the Shinomiya family because of her.

The last time we came into contact with the other party, no matter how many layers of suspicion we created, the truth would eventually come out.

"Hayasaka-san, do you feel better all of a sudden?"

"It's the same for Mai-senpai, right?" Hayasaka Ai knelt beside the coffee table and lowered her voice. "A team must always have a core. As long as the core is not broken, the team will not fall apart even if they are separated by several copies. And they have a foundation in this strange reality."

"I agree." Mai nodded gently, lifted up her skirt, and also knelt beside him, supporting her chin, looking at Yuki lying on the sofa in a daze.

"I suddenly realized that this pig-head is quite handsome when he doesn't talk."

You want to provoke me, right? He is talking dirty in front of you, but what he said is not wrong.

Hayasaka Ai looked at Yuki's face, but another picture appeared in her mind.

A single man guarding the tunnel, a butcher with a knife on a mountain of demon corpses, as she thought about it, she had a completely opposite sense of déjà vu.

That devilish warrior never appeared in reality, and she could not feel the heavy pressure like a mountain. Looking at the sleeping young man, she gradually understood.

Does he like this peaceful daily routine?

Looking at Mai who looked suspicious, Hayasaka Ai suddenly stretched out her hand: "Senior, your curry seems to be getting burnt."

Sakurajima Mai, who was still guessing what she was thinking, suddenly jumped up, not even bothering to put on her slippers, and rushed to the kitchen in a panic.

Looking at the panicked figure, the indifference on Hayasaka Ai's face faded away, revealing a warm smile that rarely appeared.

Well, I don't hate it either.

PS: Update, it’s the last day, do you have tickets or razor blades?

Interlude 2: Chapter 7: Sense of Security

Yuki slept until the afternoon and felt a little dazed as he looked at the sea under the sunset.

I actually fell asleep and the feeling of excitement disappeared. This was contrary to the plan, but it lifted my spirits and gave me a real rest.

Recalling the feeling before falling asleep, he couldn't even describe the wonderful feeling.

"Sorry, I fell asleep without realizing it."

Yuki turned his head and saw Hayasaka Ai and Sakurajima Mai who were also yawning. They both looked tired and kept rubbing their eyes.

"It's okay. I'll go heat up some food and have it as dinner."

"You two didn't eat?"

"Not eating for more than ten hours is a basic operation in the reincarnation game. Besides, after reaching the 'extreme' level, it seems that you can tolerate hunger quite well." Hayasaka Ai stood up, rubbed her numb calves, and pointed to the notebook on the table:

"I had nothing to do this afternoon, so my senior and I picked up some interesting information from the forum. Take a closer look."

When Yuki took a look, he saw that the notebook was indeed full of words, and he was instantly moved.

He doesn't ask for anything in return, but he also doesn't like others to take things for granted. Working hard together is not just talk.

"You guys really..."

“Don’t be too moved.” Mai stood up, her black hair covering her face so her expression couldn’t be seen. She just patted Yuki’s shoulder.

"Pighead is the maximum range I can accept. You are not allowed to go beyond this and become a pervert."

Huh? What a weird thing.

Yuki was a little confused. When he saw a rabbit head on the notebook and the gesture of flipping the pages forward, his expression froze instantly.

Oh no, they saw my research data on reincarnation biology!

The sun had already set, and the sea that had been dyed blood red by the setting sun had returned to darkness. The lights were on, and there was no dining table in the small rental house, but several delicious dishes were placed on the coffee table.

The senior made her best curry rice, while Hayasaka Ai stir-fried snow peas and carrot slices and mixed some mustard octopus.

The meals were simple, but Yuki was very satisfied. The small house with a monthly rent of 10,000 yen was also his home. It was the first time he had eaten with friends since he came here.

It's better to give my first time to them than to those idiots in the diving department.

Under the gaze, Yuuki took a bite of curry rice and gave a thumbs up: "It's still as delicious as last time."

"What about this?" Hayasaka Ai asked.

“The taste is fresh and delicious, worthy of being a professional.”

Hayasaka Ai immediately nodded with satisfaction.

Don't underestimate the power of the Church of Balance.

Of course Yuki knew that he couldn't favor either side at this time. When Senior Mai opened her mouth, he quickly ate the food and filled his entire mouth, so naturally he couldn't say anything.

This sly guy.

Mai closed her mouth and looked at the two people eating quickly in a daze. It was really ironic that the reincarnation game actually allowed her to make friends.

From childhood to adulthood, she has been in the entertainment industry and is not considered an ordinary person. The halo brought by fame makes people dare not approach it, and she has seen enough of vanity and has no interest in dealing with others.

The reincarnation game tied her to these two people, and they were not cold-hearted people, so it was natural for them to become friends.

As she was thinking, Yuki suddenly scooped a large amount of rice from his bowl with a spoon.

"What are you doing!?"

"Senior, if you have no appetite, I'll help you eat." Yuki smiled with a mouthful of white teeth, and then a gurgling sound was heard.

He slept for most of the day, and Hayasaka Ai and Mai had been looking up information next to him for most of the day. It would be strange if he wasn't hungry.

"give me back!"

"My saliva is on it, are you sure you want to eat it? Be gentle and don't step on my feet."

"Mai-senpai, I'll give you some."

"I'll just eat mine."

"Even if you don't care about Yuuki's saliva, pull up the hem of your skirt. Your panties are about to show."

......

The dinner was quite lively. Fortunately, there was no one next door, otherwise I would have thought that these college students were having a party.

In the end, it was Hayasaka Ai who shared the meal with Mai, and by the time night fell, not even a grain of rice was left.

Listening to the sound of water washing over the plates, Yuki squinted his eyes comfortably while holding the coffee cup. This was also brought by Hayasaka Ai. The famous Shuchiin coffee exuded a rich aroma, but what was even more amazing was the brewing technique.

"Professional, the water temperature is just right, and the aroma of the coffee is preserved."

"You have a good eye for talent. I accept your compliment." Hayasaka Ai crossed her legs, lifted her skirt slightly, and curtsied. "When it comes to taking care of people, no one does it better than me."

I see, you have a weird master.

Yuki remembered Kaguya Shinomiya but did not mention it. This was a hidden secret, even though it was not difficult to find out.

"Keep your voice down, the senior is looking over here quietly."

"This is my area of ​​expertise, and she already praised it this afternoon."

I slept so soundly that I didn't even smell such a strong fragrance.

Yuki scratched his face and felt that he had not slept so deeply in years. Looking back, it was probably because of that sense of security.

With them both around, there's nothing to worry about.

By this time Mai had finished washing the dishes and was walking over slowly, wiping her hands on her apron. Then she pretended not to have heard anything and changed the subject.

"While you were being a dead pig this afternoon, we found the posts left by the tyrant and copied them down. Take a look for yourself."

Oh?

Yuki was a little surprised because he had been looking for it these days, but the posts on the forum were refreshed too quickly and he couldn't find it.

The credibility of those posts is less than 10%. Most of them are storytelling or self-recording. There are also many strategy posts, but if they cannot be verified, they are no better than stories.

"He was a pleasure to work with us, and the content should be credible."

Yuki opened his notebook and read carefully with his chin propped up. The two girls also remained quiet, only occasionally adding some coffee to his cup.

The tyrant's hint was very simple. He just wrote about the companion in the Demon Hospital. According to the information he had learned before, the copy was unique. Wasn't that him?

"Smart, they didn't even mention the fake name, and they mainly focused on the bloodline skills?"

There was no need for the tyrant to mislead him. He just wrote according to what he saw and heard. Yuki read ten lines at a glance and roughly understood what he wanted to say.

Bloodline skills are superior to ordinary skills and have growth potential that is independent of the game formula. They are rare, but not necessarily powerful. He had seen players using them in the previous copy.

'It's pretty much what I guessed, the gap between the cornerstone and the formula.'

Strengthening magic is the most representative. From entry to mastery, and then from mastery to proficiency, each upgrade will bring changes in power and usage, but this change is fixed.

Just like a math problem, 1+1 always equals . If another player uses it, the effect will be the same. The only difference is the timing and usage.

After all, skills are granted by the reincarnation game, and they will not upgrade automatically like fighting skills or gun mastery, because players lack the basics and do not have the premise of "magic power".
