Dragon Clan: Reboot Life

When the clear singing echoed between the sky and the sea again.

The door to the Food of the Night is crumbling.

A girl once said that since a moth that has never seen light in its life will burn the world for the light, then a moth that is used to light and warmth will also burn itself in order to protect this warmth.

she said so.

Did that in the end too.

The moment he saw her jump off the plane, Akira Sakurai had already guessed that the girl in front of him had chosen a path that was about to burn him.

The Food of the Night is about to open, they have lost the best weapon against the corpse guards, and the only way to stop these monsters is -

Use body as bait.

This is the last [Song of the Siren], she will use her body as bait to lead all the corpse guards into the food of the night!

And in this deja vu singing, the memory that was so long covered with thick dust began to fall, and the long-lost old chapter was opened.

……

……

Sunny white dazzling.

At the corner of the school wall covered with barbed wire, a girl with short hair wrapped her hands in thick cloth strips. She stepped on the barbed wire carefully and climbed up. Her white and tender skin was cut with bloodstains and she didn't say a word until she climbed to the top.

She sat on the wall and looked at the world outside the wall, and the boy inside the wall looked at her.

The afternoon sun was floating in the air, and the cicadas were singing endlessly in the mountains and forests.

"What are you looking at? Is the scenery outside beautiful?" The boy raised his head and asked curiously, with anticipation and envy in his eyes.

The short-haired girl turned around, leaned on the wall and looked down, waved at the boy, and asked loudly, "Are you coming up too? I can lend you my gloves!"

The boy seemed a little moved, and took a small step forward, but soon became timid. Looking at the tightly wound barbed wire in front of him, he remembered the harsh methods of the "teachers".

He gritted his teeth and shook his head, then suddenly turned and ran away.

The girl tilted her head, looked at the boy running away, and muttered that he wouldn't tell the teacher, would he?
……

"Hi! How did you run away last time?" The girl sat in the corner with a plastic dinner plate.

The boy opposite was stunned for a moment, then looked around nervously, and was relieved when he found that no one noticed them.

"The school stipulates that boys and girls cannot sit together." He lowered his voice and urged, "Go quickly, or you will be discovered by the teacher."

The girl asked curiously, "Why can't boys and girls sit together?"

"Because..." The boy was at a loss for words for a moment, unable to come up with a reason, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Because this is the school's regulation, and the teacher said so."

"It's not like the teacher can't make mistakes. Last time we..." The girl said disapprovingly, but the anxious boy covered her mouth.

He looked around nervously, and when he found that no one heard what the girl said, he turned his head and said seriously: "You can't speak ill of the teacher, or you will be locked up."

The girl blinked, as if to say she knew.

Only then did the boy realize that he was still covering the opponent's mouth, and quickly withdrew his hand.

"Were you worried about me just now?" The girl's eyes sparkled.

"No!" The boy retorted subconsciously, "I'm just afraid that someone will report it if they hear it, and I will be in bad luck with you!"

"Oh." The girl fell silent, and said after a long time, "I heard that the sea is on the other side of the mountain. Have you ever seen the sea?"

The boy froze, shaking his head.

"Then do you want to go and have a look with me?" The girl invited him with a bright smile.

Her smile is as dazzling as the light of the sky, and that kind of vigor and wantonness seem to penetrate directly into her heart, and one can see her colorful inner world.

The boy had a bitter face: "If the teacher finds out, he will be locked up in a confinement room. Why did you invite me?"

"Because you didn't inform me last time!" The girl stuck out her tongue, "I think you will be a good partner."

"partner?"

"It means teammates." The girl clenched her small fists, her big eyes fluttering, ""Come on, come on, let's go see the sea together! "

"...No, I don't want to enter the confinement room again." The boy was silent for a long time, but he still refused. He picked up the dinner plate and hurriedly left the corner.

……

"Mingjun Mingjun! Come and see!" The girl clenched her hands tightly, as if she was holding something, for fear that it would escape from her palm.

She ran over in a hurry, squatted in front of Akira Sakurai, and spread out her hands cautiously, in the palm of which lay a small crumpled white ball of flowers.

"what is this?"

"Ah? Why did it become like this?" The girl scratched her head and introduced, "This is a dandelion. I just saw it in the courtyard. It seemed to come in from the outside. It was so beautiful at the time, a fluffy white ball .”

"Dandelion?" The boy looked blank.

"You haven't even seen a dandelion, have you?" The girl patted his head and said sympathetically, "It's so pitiful."

The boy opened her hand in embarrassment.

"Hiss—" A low, suppressed moan of pain sounded.

The boy was taken aback, and quickly grabbed the girl's hand, only to find that the five fingers on her right hand were all cut open.

The girl said nonchalantly, "I was scratched by a wire while climbing the fence,"

The boy said silently, "Why do you keep climbing onto the wall? If the teacher finds out, you will be locked up."

"I'm training!"

"train?"

"Doesn't Mingjun want to stay here all the time, instead of going to the outside world?" the girl asked, "One day I will escape from here."

The boy was so frightened that he quickly sealed her mouth. Fortunately, this was a corner where no one cared, and no one heard the girl's bold remarks.

"Well... I will definitely... um... escape..." The girl struggled to show her determination.

The boy was annoyed: "Can you stop saying things like this?"

"Is there no place Mingjun wants to go?" The girl blinked her eyes.

"...No." The boy said angrily.

"It's so pitiful..."

The girl looked sympathetically again.

"Then where do you want to go?" the boy asked angrily.

"Tokyo!" the girl shouted and raised her hand.

"What do you want to do in Tokyo?"

"My home is in Tokyo!"

"Your home is in Tokyo?" The boy was taken aback, then shook his head and said, "So what, your parents don't want you anymore, everyone here is the same."

"No." The girl's small face suddenly became serious, "My father told me that he will come to pick me up sooner or later!"

"What about others?" The boy said unconvinced, "Are you 11 years old this year? You have been here for six years."

"Mingjun, why do you deny others so easily?" The girl stared at him fixedly, her black and white pupils stared at him, "Maybe he is looking for me all over Japan, but this country is so big, it is very difficult to find me here." It’s difficult, he’s just an ordinary person, it’s very hard to find this place and prepare to pick me up.”

She stood up, opened her hands and raised her head, spinning slowly on the lawn, the sun fell on her beautiful side face.

Her voice seemed to come from far away.

"Maybe Mingjun, your parents are also working hard. How can there be parents in this world who don't love their children?"

The boy stared blankly at the sky in that corner.

Are parents trying to get him out under a certain sky?

"Mingjun!" The girl stretched out her hand to him, her pupils seemed to be shining brightly, "Let's run away together, let's make sure if they have given up on us! Even if they give up on us, we can go far, far away by train There will be cherry blossoms, dandelions, and the sound of the tide...Ming-kun, do you like taiyaki?"

"...Why did you switch to Taiyaki all of a sudden?"

The boy couldn't understand the jump of the girl's thinking, but couldn't help swallowing.

This school doesn't prepare taiyaki for them.

"We can taste all kinds of delicious food on the way to escape." The girl clenched her small fists, her eyes sparkling, "I like taiyaki the most!"

"Do you have money?"

"Money?" The girl tilted her head and thought for a while, "If it's not possible, we can run while working, but we can't stay in one place for too long."

"Forget it... I don't want to run." The boy lowered his head in frustration.

"Why? Are you willing to stay here for the rest of your life?" The girl held the boy's face in both hands, and leaned forward. Under the long eyelashes, the boy's face was reflected in the clear pupils.

"If you are caught, you will be killed as someone out of control." The boy's body trembled slightly.

He is afraid of death.

"Do you want to live in this school for the rest of your life, or take a trip that you won't regret?" The girl whispered in his ear, "Instead of living in the dark like a mole, let's break out of the cocoon together, Whether moths or butterflies end up, we can fly far.”

"Doesn't it matter if it ends with fire fighting?" the boy asked in a low voice.

"Maybe it's not necessarily a butterfly." The girl wrinkled her nose, "Think better!"

The boy was silent, he hesitated and looked up at the familiar corner of the sky above his head.

Will he escape from here one day and take a rumbling train all the way north, just to pursue the sky that he yearns for?
"……OK."

The sun pierced through the forest leaves and fell in front of the corner, the boy said softly.

……

"Hey, did you hear? The guy with that crazy girl has a high fever."

"high fever?"

"Well, I heard that it rained all night, and now I'm talking nonsense, I think I'm going to burn my brain out."

"Why did it rain all night? Aren't the doors of the bedroom locked with iron bars?"

"I was punished by the teacher, it seems that I contradicted the teacher."

"Back to me... Teacher? Sure enough, I have been playing with that crazy girl for a long time, and my mind is not normal. I guess the next time the law enforcement officers come, it will be their death."

"It's not just contradicting, it seems that something from the management department has been lost, and the teacher suspects that he took it."

"He still steals?"

"It is said that it is a map and compass or something? Not sure, I just heard that the teacher asked if he took it. At first he refused to admit it, but then he admitted it for some reason..."

"Admit it on your own initiative? As long as you refuse to admit this kind of thing, unless the teacher finds it out of your dormitory, at most he will suspect you. What does he think?"

"Who knows what he's thinking, anyway, he's in a miserable situation this time around. The teacher in the management office said that he still has to settle the account, and he's afraid he'll really have a hard time getting through the end-of-year evaluation..."

Subdued exclamations and conversations came from around the corner.

The girl standing against the corner wall lowered her head, her eyes fell on her toes, her hands were twisted around her back in a daze, and in her hands was an old-fashioned compass.

She raised her head in a daze and panic, like a frightened bird.

The sky in the distance outside the window is still blue. It is the sky she has longed for for many years, and it is also the freedom she has been pursuing so hard.

But this moment.

The girl knew that she might never be able to pursue that sky again.

……

"Have you heard? That crazy girl jumped over the wall and escaped from school! She ran into the mountains alone!"

"She...she really escaped?"

"Really, did she succeed?"

"How can it be successful? It seems that she got lost in the mountains and was captured. It is said that she almost starved to death when she was captured! The search personnel also found something lost by the management office on her..."

"Tsk, no wonder..."

The boy walked to a familiar corner with the rice bowl in his hand. People in twos and threes in the restaurant gathered together and whispered, and the sound came into his ears.

Someone jumped over the wall and escaped from the school?That's great.

The boy's thoughts diverged a little.

Alas, it's a pity that he was caught and returned.

Speaking of which, why do you feel that everyone looks at him strangely?

The boy frowned and swept around.

This is the farthest corner of the restaurant, and usually no one would pay attention to it, but at this moment, most of the people in the restaurant cast their eyes on him, and their eyes were a little weird.

He was at a loss, not knowing why everyone looked at him like that.

After thinking hard to no avail, he lowered his head and started grilling rice again.

Don't think about it anymore, the doctor said that his body was recovering from a serious illness and he needed to eat more to make up for the shortfall.

It's just that he didn't know if it was because he hadn't been to the restaurant for a while, but he always felt that there was something missing in this corner.

He raised his head and stared blankly at the empty seat opposite him.

This is the corner of the restaurant, the wind from the window cannot blow, and the sunlight cannot fall here. No one will choose this location except him. This is almost becoming his exclusive dining table.

Everywhere there will be some areas that cannot be exposed to the sun, just like in the lush courtyard, the phoenix trees cover the sky and shade the ground, and the bees and butterflies are constantly coming and going in the blooming sea of ​​flowers, but the remote corners are only green. Moss grows freely, and larvae accustomed to the darkness cocoon alone here.

But at this moment when he looked up, his heart felt empty for no reason. It seemed that there was supposed to be a person sitting opposite him, but now it was empty...

The most fatal thing was that he couldn't remember who that person was.

Really... is there such a person?

……

……

Miyamoto Mako jumped over Sakurai Akira's head.

Her figure is outlined in the light and wind like a blooming platycodon flower, and like a dandelion that floated from afar that day.

Black snake shadows chased after her figure, just like a group of snakes were attracted by the beauty of flowers, chasing her footsteps and going to the underworld together.

The snakes flitted past Akira Sakurai, but they no longer lusted after his flesh and blood, they just chased after the girl's singing.

Sakurai finally remembered.

He had seen Mako, those years deep in the mountains.

In that perpetually gloomy school, there is a girl who stands alone.

Compared with her peers who are gloomy and depressed, who live cautiously, she is a different kind.

What is heterogeneous?

It's just that she looks out of place compared to everyone else, and everyone else has accepted her fate, but she doesn't.

She always showed a beautiful smile to everyone, and her eyes always fell into the distance that she shouldn't be able to reach, so she looked so abrupt in that cold and depressing school, like a colorful and vivid figure emerging from a black and white scroll.

Everyone needs to learn to lie there, because the price of telling the truth can sometimes be very high, maybe a life.

But that girl never, she always blurts out what comes to mind, never thinking about the consequences of doing so.

For example, she would loudly tell the principal at the school morning meeting that she really wanted to go to Hokkaido to see the sea, to go to the cherry blossom promenade next to Chidorigafuchi in Tokyo to see cherry blossoms...

Everyone looked at her in shock, like looking at some monster.

The adults locked her in a confinement room angrily, and the children of the same age pointed at her and whispered and laughed at her innocence and absurdity.

For the ghost who has long been accustomed to the darkness and accepted his fate, her existence is not dazzling, but dazzling.

Gradually, as she was locked up again and again, the girl's short hair became waist-length hair, which seemed to be the only proof that she had grown up.

She gradually became silent, but she could still face everyone with a gentle smile, but this kind of gentleness could no longer penetrate deep into her heart, like the air under the warm winter sun, no matter how bright the sun is, the air will always be Cold and thin.

She gradually became obedient, and became a good child who was awakened in the eyes of the teacher. The price was that she no longer told anyone that she wanted to see the outside world, and she no longer climbed the high wall, but occasionally stood on tiptoe in places where no one was around Feet, looking at the distance that did not belong to her by nature.

How many people will a person meet in his life, and how many people can he remember?
Sakurai Akira looked at the beautiful figure who seemed to be about to go far away, his mind went blank.

Why would such a precious memory be forgotten because of a high fever?
And... what about Mako?Did she forget too?Why... has she never come to find herself?
Akira Sakurai shook the pale dragon wings behind him violently, soaring into the sky, and chased forward with all his might.

He couldn't describe the emotions flowing in his heart at this moment, it was sadness, powerlessness, regret... He suddenly wanted to cry, and the tears flowed on his face, blurring his focus on the girl, and he erased it in a panic. With tears in his eyes, he was afraid that the girl would completely disappear from his eyes in the next second.

He let out a hysterical roar, and the roar echoed between the sky and the sea, and then rose all the way to the sky, he was so sad and so angry, like the epitome of thousands of mortal spirits who can't catch up with time or fate.

At this moment, he finally understood what the lord said to him in that bronze temple.

People will always yearn for the distant sky in this life.

There may be someone you love standing under that sky, there may be your favorite taiyaki, or it may be full of your favorite flowers.

You look at the sky you yearn for, silently accumulating the power to fly, but often before you grow wings, that sky no longer exists.

The mobile cart selling taiyaki went to the next night market, and the flowers bloomed and faded for another year, but they never bloomed for you, and your loved one embarked on a long journey.

You are left alone in place.

One day you finally grow up and have wings that can fly anywhere in the world, but where should you fly to?

You have traveled alone to so many places, but not a single city is yours.

It took you a long time to realize that the world is so big, but what we need is only a small part from the beginning to the end.

What we need is never the whole sky, but people who can fly to the sky with us.

As long as the person who can fly to the distant sky with you is still around, you will eventually find a new sky, a sky suitable for your life.

Under that sky, dandelions will sway with the wind and go to far away places. The wind brings the smoke of burning sea bream, and the sound of the sea tide under the cliff echoes between the sky and the earth...

He understood, but it seemed too late.

After many years, the boy flapped his dragon wings desperately to save the girl who loved him.

The body eroded by the serum has long been weakened, and his whole body is full of needle-pricking pain, but he has no time to feel the pain, and he will not be able to catch the girl's hand in time.

His bloodline was on the verge of collapse, he had overdrawn too much power, and the blood imprint from Lu Mingfei was not omnipotent, which is why what he first obtained was the incomplete version of [Baqi], and his own body was not qualified to carry it. Complete 【Baqi】.

He is still a mortal, still an ant unable to rewrite his destiny.

The pale dragon wings began to wither, falling like ashes after burning, but he was still trying his best to fan the dragon wings, which was the only thing he could do at this moment.

That girl was burning herself for the city.

The boy was also burning himself to grab the girl's hand.

as...

【destiny? 】

In the dark, someone whispered.

Akira Sakurai's extremely weak body woke up in an instant, every joint was opened like a valve, and unparalleled power fell from the sky, washing his blood vessels and nervous system like a torrent, reaching every joint in his limbs and bones. a corner!

Countless words or spells reverberated in his mind at this moment, carrying the breath of the ancient and wild!

That is……

The second blood mark!
Among the countless incantations, it seemed that someone was asking him——

[What do you think is fate? 】

……

……

"The 1000 years are over, and Satan will be released from prison..."

Mars, who watched the thunder light fall from the sky, lowered his noble head.

He took off his top hat, tears fell silently in his eyes, he paid the highest respect to Lei Guang with the ancient ceremony of the Dragon Clan, his voice was hoarse and trembling with excitement.

"Long time no see, my respected... Your Majesty."

"You... shouldn't have come back!"

……

……

Bronze Palace
"This world is always so cruel, so cruel that I want to crush it."

Lu Mingfei on the steps stood up with a cold expression. He stretched out his hand forward, as if he wanted to grasp the authority that was close at hand, and then crush everything that made people feel painful and powerless.

"But this world is so beautiful, and every courage to be desperate when forced to the end is rooted with seeds of hope."

He turned his head, looked at the figure on the throne, and said softly: "I have not caught up with everything I cherish. This time, I hope you can help me. It's not a bet, it's just because we are one."

on the throne.

The monarch in the sky slowly got up.

The world fell into gray and white.

He came to the human named Akira Sakurai in one step.

Countless years later, he opened his eyes again to see this strange yet familiar world, his gaze remained indifferent, as if seeing this world that once belonged to him again could not cause a ripple in his heart.

He lowered his head, his pupils seemed to flow with lava.

Really boring.

The boring world, boring spirits, boring emotions, everything is as uninteresting as ever.

But he can ignore all the people and things in this world, but he can't ignore that rascal guy named Lu Mingfei, who won't leave after he goes to his house.

"destiny?"

He seemed to be talking to himself.

Then there was a thunderclap.

High above the sky, the thunder light split the gray-white world.

In Sakurai Akira's recovered but still unclear consciousness, someone seemed to say eight words in his ear.

That is the speech spirit represented by the second blood source mark, and it is also the beginning of all speech spirits, the source of the initial list of speech spirit sequences.

It is—【Emperor】!
He lowered his eyes, looking down at the troubled world with majesty and anger.

The endless thunder light came down to the world with his eyes, crushing the endless wind and rain here tonight.

At that moment, everything collapsed, and all powerless fates were drowned in the tyrannical thunder.

He says--

I am the only one in the sky and the world.
