Chapter 40

"It's over."

Sephiroth left just as quickly as he came.

Miyako Eri murmured softly, watching as the shadow she looked up to in the past was broken with the murmur, turning into dots of light.

She opened her hands towards the broken points of light, gathered them in her palms, and sealed them into her heart again.

At the same time, Gojo Satoru also solved Xia Youjie's shadow.

He watched Miyako Eri stand there for a long time, and couldn't help but move closer.

"Eri-chan, stop being dazed, the matter is not over yet."

Miyako Eri raised her head and looked at the corpse not far away. The fog that originally surrounded the building not only did not disperse, but also It’s getting thicker and thicker.

Staring at the dilapidated building with bright red eyes, he finally saw a few figures fighting fiercely through the gaps.

"Atsushi, Kyoka-chan, and a dark shadow?"

The girl squinted her eyes and tried to see the people in the building clearly, and then she was patted on the head by Gojo Satoru.

"It's already very lively over there, so we shouldn't need to do anything else."

He smiled and pointed at Gilgamesh who was standing on the other side, "Compared to that, I think that golden one is what should give you a headache next. "

Gilgamesh obviously came here secretly. Miyako Eri hadn't paid much attention to it when she was fighting Sephiroth. Now she felt that the connection between herself and Gilgamesh was changing with the will of the world. It was only then discovered that it became hidden and reappeared due to intervention.

Heroic spirits are not welcome in this world.

She lowered her head and looked at the back of her hand. As Gilgamesh appeared, a bright red command spell mark also appeared on the back of her hand. Just like the connection between her and Gilgamesh, this mark also appeared and disappeared. Like a battery that is almost dead.

Then she looked up at Gilgamesh who had his arms crossed as if he were watching a play.

"It was Archer who was supposed to be here?"

Gilgamesh's queue-jumping was very similar to the last time he jumped in the queue for Red A. Although it felt that Archer's character would not cause him to be snatched for the second time, but thinking about it carefully, it was also It's not impossible.

The answer was surprising.

According to the plan, it was his future life, Gilgamesh, nicknamed the "Wise King", who was supposed to come here.

She is Miyako Eri's favorite.

Although Miyako Eri was a little surprised that the person who was supposed to come was actually the wise king, this also meant that Gilgamesh was indeed competing for the throne once again.

why?

As a King of Heroes with a sky-high self-esteem, he has been rejected over and over again. Even people he admires should not approach him like this again.

What's more, he already knew that he would not be favored by Miyako Eri.

The young King of Heroes, who was not explicitly asked this question, just snorted softly. He clearly saw the question of the person involved, but had no intention of answering.

So Miyako Eri let this question go. What matters now is not why Gilgamesh came here, but when Gilgamesh left.

This time, Gilgamesh didn't have the intention to stay in this world as he did last time. The suppression Miyako Eri felt was just that the command spell came and went, and the suppression he felt was even worse. If he hadn't clearly known In the future, he would not be troubled by such things. He might even think that the other party thought it was too troublesome, so he asked him to do it for him.

The result is almost the same whether it comes or not, it’s like it’s all in vain.

"But... it can be considered a good sight."

The biggest gain of Gilgamesh's trip was to see the shadow that Miyako Eri had always hidden in his heart. Before that, he had only vaguely known that there was such a person, but he didn't know it. He had never met the other person, and he didn't know what his personality was like. Only after Miyako Eri's inner figure was recreated did he fully see the other person.

She has long silver-white hair, eyes full of divine charm, and a deep and complicated sadness when she looks at Miyako Eri.

"If this is the only level, he can't be considered a strong rival."

Gilgamesh suddenly lost interest. The rival he had always thought of was only such a character, and instead became a little angry because of disappointment.

"Such shallowness really disappoints me, Eli."

"Yes, that's really rude."

Miyako Eri never took Gilgamesh's temper seriously, as he came and went quickly. Hearing this sentence, I just thought that he was going crazy again, so he just replied easily and habitually, and then withdrew his attention from the command spell on the back of his hand.

"So, if this world makes you feel so boring, how about?"

Hearing Miyako Eri's unfinished words, Gilgamesh narrowed his red eyes and stared at the girl dangerously,

"Oh? How brave? , what do you think of me as a "

disposable disposable product? "

Miyako Eri sighed, that's actually what she meant.

After all, Gilgamesh was so suppressed by this world, and she suffered a lot.

But although everyone knew this truth, they still had to worry about the king's face and couldn't explain the matter so clearly.

Miyako Eri blinked her bright red eyes and turned to look at the quiet white-haired former teacher.

The other party didn't know what he was thinking. When Miyako Eri looked over, he realized that his eyes behind the blindfold met hers.

"What?"

Gojo Satoru, who had solved the shadow of his best friend not long ago, was actually mentally unstable as well, but he cleverly maintained a consistent smile that made it impossible to tell how many times he had experienced emotional ups and downs.

All in all, the only common thought between him and Miyako Eri is that the culprit will never be spared easily.

That...if I remember correctly, it should be a guy named Shibusawa Tatsuhiko.

It was that man who easily revealed the side of their hearts that they were least willing to reveal in front of others.

Miyako Eri seals Sephiroth and Gojo Satoru's love for his best friend that has never been revealed to the outside world.

No, that's not necessarily the case with Shark Intentions. Gojo Satoru doesn't have such dark thoughts about his best friend.

But as a magician, Gojo Satoru, the legendary Son of Destiny, had indeed been dissatisfied with the world he lived in and wanted to destroy everything.

This destructive desire originating from the depths of the soul is an emotion related to childbirth. Even Gojo Satoru himself cannot explain how this desire accumulates in seemingly beautiful and relaxing daily life.

Maybe it was when he realized that even if he was the strongest in the world of magic, there were things he couldn't do, or maybe it was when he and his best friend parted ways because of different ideas, or maybe it was when he learned about his own world. When he was invaded by species from other worlds...

when he realized that the world he was in was easily eliminated as if it were harmful toxins, the sudden rage and the desire to destroy everything came to him. It circled repeatedly in his mind, gradually swallowing up various thoughts like a black hole, and then expanded.

Xia Youjie's shadow only opened a small crack in the suppressed impulse in his heart.

"It's so scary..."

Gojo Satoru murmured softly, looking at Miyako Eri through his sunglasses with blood-red eyes that were completely different from those blue eyes.

At that moment, he seemed to understand Miyako Eri's mood.

Similar to yet different from herself, Miyako Eri is a person without a hometown.

He was kicked out of his own world, and Miyako Eri was driven out of his own world because his world was destroyed.

Compared with the pain that can never return, what he can feel more is Miyako Eri's anger and hatred that has nowhere to vent.

Even though she hated the man who was sealed deep in her heart, she felt equally fond of him and longed for him.

Sephiroth is the only representative of her hometown, the one she can never go back to, and the only one she tries her best to seal in the Wild Star.

"This is really..."

Gojo Satoru clicked his tongue, and infinite sympathy for Gilgamesh suddenly surged in his heart.

Of course, among the 100,000 points of sympathy, maybe one in tens of thousands includes himself.

Who can compare to Sephiroth?
