Looking at the cheerful and straightforward expression on her face, Rozen and the others could no longer look at her the same way they did just now.
Admittedly, the girl in front of them seemed to be a very simple person. She was the same on the outside and didn't know how to hide her thoughts. To put it nicely, she was pure, but to put it bluntly, she was naive. But at least she wouldn't arouse any ill will from others. In fact, it was easy for others to like her. She should be very popular and the type that people would want to get to know.
However, the meaning of this so-called innocence would change depending on one's standpoint.
If she was innocent in a good way, she could be said to be kind.
But what if she was innocent in a bad way?
The words of the girl named Xiangma Duozi gave Rozen and the others such a feeling.
In other words, the girl in front of them wasn't someone they could trust.
"Tsk …"
Suzuka seemed to know the nature of the girl. She clicked her tongue and bit her lips, as if she didn't want to have any contact with Xiangma Duozi.
"Miss Xiangma, you …"
Natsume also looked like he wanted to say something but stopped.
Obviously, even Natsume's impression of Xiangma Duozi had changed because of what she said.
"What's wrong?"
On the other hand, Xiangma Duo Duozi tilted his head in confusion as if he hadn't heard what he had said.
In response, Rozen only had one thing to say.
"Unfortunately, I'm not the reincarnation of Night Light." So Rozen said with a faint smile. "Even if you are the reincarnation of Night Light, that's something from the previous life. The destiny or mission of the previous life has nothing to do with this life. There's no reason to exchange your life for a tiny possibility, right?"
Hearing Rozen's words, Soma Duozi was stunned.
Then, Xiangma Duo Duozi said.
"How can you say that?" Unexpectedly, Soma Duo Orangzi retorted, "A person's destiny and mission aren't separated from one another, but rather gathered together from the expectations of many people. Just like Night Light, he once carried the hopes of so many people on his shoulders, and in that era of war where ships and cannons were developed, he revived the magic of spells and fulfilled the long-cherished wishes of many people. People have always had expectations of him, and if he were to deviate from this path, wouldn't that be the same as running away?"
Xiangma Duozi didn't notice that the atmosphere was becoming more and more unnatural.
It could be seen that Xiangma Duozi attached great importance to the existence of 'destiny' and 'mission'. He even regarded them as the highest standard, and all actions that went against destiny and mission were wrong. What's more, for the sake of so-called destiny and mission, people should be willing to sacrifice themselves for it.
Xiangma Duozi firmly believed this and regarded it as the absolute right thing. As long as it was to complete the mission and follow destiny, even the slightest possibility should be pursued. Even if the result wasn't good, it would be worth it.
This kind of multi-tasking even gave people a feeling.
It gave people the feeling that in order to achieve their goals, any kind of sacrifice was acceptable. Even if there was sadness and sympathy, there was absolutely no hesitation.
Of course, it didn't just include others, it also included himself.
This was the pureness of Xiangma Duozi.
It was simply … Chilling.
However, he didn't notice this at all and was still talking to Rozen.
"I think that even if you're not the reincarnation of Night Light, you're still the publicly acknowledged heir of the Earth Imperial Family. Your talent is something bestowed upon you by the heavens. It's very precious. Such talent and status must not be wasted. You should use them for the right purpose."
It was as if Soma Duo Duozi was explaining his ideals to someone else. He spoke with great enthusiasm, a happy smile on his beautiful face, as if he had never had the opportunity to speak his mind before. He seemed very excited.
However, even if the happiness and excitement were sincere, the current Soma Duo Duozi didn't give people the feeling that he was so happy. Instead, people could see the twisted part of his personality.
As a result, Natsume and Suzuka were completely speechless, unable to utter a single word.
Rozen fixed his gaze on the girl in front of him, his tone becoming indifferent.
"Then, may I ask what the so-called 'right purpose' is?"
Rozen's attitude suddenly became distant.
But Soma Duo Duozi didn't notice it at all.
"Then of course it's with me …!"
Soma Duo Duozi almost subconsciously leaned forward, as if he wanted to say something that he had always wanted to say, his face flushed red.
At this moment …
"Princess, please stop here. What happens next can't be said casually in a place like this, okay?"
An elegant and polite voice suddenly came from behind Soma Duo Duozi, interrupting his words.
Hearing that voice, Rozen didn't show the slightest surprise.
Natsume was startled, but then he realized something and looked behind Soma Duo Duozi.
As for Suzuka, the moment she heard that voice, her eyes instantly widened, and there was an incomparable fear in her eyes.
Then, another voice rang out from behind Soma Duo Orangzi.
"It's time to leave, Princess."
Compared to the elegant and courteous voice, this voice only had calmness and awareness, giving off a very intellectual and rational feeling.
"Huh?"
Hearing that voice, Rozen was a little startled.
The reason was simple.
(Why do I feel like I've heard that voice before?)
Rozen frowned and looked in the direction of the voice. His eyes glowed with the light of Spirit Vision, and he constantly concentrated his magical power to look in that direction.
Under such circumstances, Rozen finally saw the vague appearance of the two shikigami behind Soma Duo Duozi.
But when Rozen was about to continue looking, Soma Duo Duozi seemed to have calmed down and said apologetically.
"I'm sorry, I wanted to have a good chat with you, but now is not the time."
With that said, Soma Duo Duozi suddenly smiled.
"But we will meet again soon, let's chat again then."
Leaving such words, Soma Duo Duozi turned around and left as if he was looking forward to that time.
At the same time, the two shikigami guarding Soma Duo Duozi also completely disappeared.
Looking at Soma Duo Duozi's back, not to mention Rozen, Natsume's expression was a little ugly.
"Qiu Guan …"
Natsume said to Rozen anxiously.
"I know." Rozen nodded and said indifferently: "It seems that he will become our enemy sooner or later."
Rozen had such an inference and hunch.
