"Wish?"
Zhi Shu looked at Eight-cloud Ink with a confused expression.
"Can I have any wish?"
He didn't doubt it.
Whether it was the wings behind Ikaros or the way she and Eight-cloud Ink appeared from the sky yesterday, it was clear that these two people in front of him weren't ordinary people.
Not to mention, Zhi Shu just saw with his own eyes that Eight-cloud Ink used the magical card to create a small machine out of thin air. He didn't know what she was tinkering with.
"Any wish —"
Eight-cloud Ink nodded.
"— But I believe Sakurai-kun won't say something that's deliberately embarrassing, right?"
Eight-cloud Ink smiled like a flower — in every sense, this description was absolutely correct.
Under Zhi Shu's cold gaze, Ikaros stretched out her finger and gently poked Eight-cloud Ink's arm.
"Master, there's a black mist behind you."
"Whoosh!" Eight-cloud Ink took out a folding fan from who knows where and smiled even more brightly, "Oh, Ikaros, you must be mistaken."
"Master …"
Her indigo eyes stared blankly at Eight-cloud Ink.
"You must be mistaken?"
"…"
"You must be mistaken?"
"…"
"You must have seen wrongly, right?"
"… Yes."
Seeing Ikaros being so tactful, Eight-cloud Ink nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at Zhi Shu.
The poor boy was curled up in the corner of the room under the black mist emitted by Eight-cloud Ink, shivering.
"So scary … What a scary creature … My peaceful life …"
At this time —
"Zhi! Zhi!! "
A girl's voice came from the outside.
It was Zhi Shu's childhood friend, Zhi Shu.
After Zhi Shu's grandfather ran away from home when he was 11 years old, Zhi Shu has been taking care of the girl next door.
As usual, Chu Yuan used Zhi Shu's house key to open the door, took off his leather shoes at the entrance, and walked straight in as if it was his own house.
Then, Chu Yuan, who was in the hallway, saw the living room with the door open. Hearing the sound of the TV, Chu Yuan showed a strange expression.
"How rare. Xiaozhi, why did you wake up so early today???"
As he spoke, Chu Yuan walked into the living room. When he saw Eight-cloud Ink and Ikaros, the rest of his words were stuck in his throat.
He carefully looked at Ikaros, then at Eight-cloud Ink.
Chu Yuan, whose gaze was becoming more and more dangerous, gradually lowered his head. The black gas he emitted was comparable to Eight-cloud Ink.
"Xiao … Zhi … Aren't you going to explain why there are two beautiful girls in the house?"
Zhi Shu, who was originally trembling in the corner, saw Chu Yuan raise his hand and immediately shouted: "Wait Chu Yuan! It's not like that! Aren't those two girls? That's a man! "
"Oh? A man? "
With his head still lowered, Chu Yuan said in a gloomy tone. He raised his hand and pointed at Ikaros and Eight-cloud Ink.
"Xiaozhi, when did you become so bad at finding excuses?"
"He's so beautiful, and you're telling me he's a boy? Who would believe you!! "
"So beautiful, but a boy, I'm sorry." Eight-cloud Ink rolled its eyes and put the teacup in its hand on the table.
"Hello, I'm Eight-cloud Ink, this is Ikaros. From today onwards, she will be a tenant of Sakurai-kun's house."
"Also, I really am a boy!"
After being confirmed by Eight-cloud Ink, Chu Yuan finally believed it. Then his cute little face quickly turned red.
"I'm really, really sorry!!!"
Chu Yuan knelt on the tatami and deeply bowed.
"I misunderstood you!"
Seeing that Chu Yuan believed him, Zhi Shu was finally relieved.
Killing someone with a hand knife is too scary!
After apologizing, Chu Yuan, who straightened up, began to carefully and politely ask about Eight-cloud Ink and Ikaros.
There was nothing to hide. Eight-cloud Ink told the two of them where they came from.
…
"Hey!!! Another world? Fantasy Village? "
"Monster!"
Seeing that Eight-cloud Ink waved its hand to disperse the demon fire, Chu Yuan screamed out loud.
Unlike Chu Yuan, whose eyes were glowing as if he had seen something interesting, Zhi Shu's entire being was in a mess.
[Sure enough … it's an unknown creature]
[Monster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
[Why would I, who always yearns for a peaceful life, encounter such a situation!! Why would a monster live in my house!!!!!!!]
Zhi Shu, who was screaming in his heart, received a strange look from Chu Yuan.
"Eh? Zhi Shu? Why do I feel like you're broken? "
"Don't mind me …"
Zhi Shu, who was crying, stopped and drew circles in the corner.
After seeing that Zhi Shu was fine, Chu Yuan asked again, "Then, is Ikaros also a monster like you?"
"No, Ikaros, she's … a man-made angel."
Gently holding Ikaros's hand, Eight-cloud Ink looked at her doubtful eyes and replied with a gentle smile.
"Anyway, they're both unknown creatures …"
Zhi Shu, who was in the corner, complained.
"Zhi Shu! You're too rude! "
Chu Yuan snorted in dissatisfaction.
"It's fine, it's fine!" Eight-cloud Ink waved its hand carelessly, "We'll probably stay here for a while, so let's continue the topic from before, Sakurai-kun, what do you want to wish for?"
Although Ikaros's Universal Card confirmed that Yui and the others were not in this world, Eight-cloud Ink did not plan to leave immediately.
Since they were here, they naturally wanted to pull this world into the world link built with Fantasy Village as the center.
In other words, before the Jianmu Tree finished eroding this world, Eight-cloud Ink would have to stay here.
Not to mention, Eight-cloud Ink was still very interested in Synapse's unimaginable black technology.
"Wish?"
Chu Yuan was confused, so Eight-cloud Ink explained.
Then, the girl's thoughts immediately went astray.
"I can have any wish? Can it really be done? Can a monster do this? "
"Can I have as many eggplants as I want?"
Then, the girl fell into a paradise full of eggplants.
Although she seemed to remember that Chu Yuan "liked eggplants very much and lost his mind because of it", wasn't it a little too crazy now?
Unlike Chu Yuan, Zhi Shu muttered to himself for a while before he said something that surprised Eight Cloud Ink, but it was also within her expectations.
"I just want to live every day in peace."
Live every day in peace?
Eight-cloud Ink looked at Zhi Shu and was a little silent.
[Instead of saying that you want to live every day in peace, it's better to say that you cherish everything you have now, Sakurai-kun.]
[Cherish this town, cherish the time you have now, and all the companions by your side. This is the essence of your pursuit of a peaceful life.]
"I understand."
With a solemn expression that confused both Zhi Shu and Chu Yuan, Eight-cloud Ink nodded.
"The peaceful days that you look forward to, you can count on me."
— — This is also a compensation in place of your and Ikaros' engraving.
The great Yakumo family would never owe anyone a favor.
