Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"Study, sports, social interaction, etiquette, and interest clubs..."

At the end of the day, Matthew still said with high spirits:

"As expected of a prestigious girls' school that aims at cultivating ladies, the curriculum is really rich!"

"yes."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded in agreement, and then said with a smile:

"But what I like most is indeed lunch break and after-school time."

"Speaking of lunch break, I have to say it's a little regrettable."

Matthew said seriously:

"I can't eat on the roof of the teaching building with everyone. I always feel that something is missing from this kind of campus life."

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled helplessly:

"I can't help it, that's the school policy. At least the food in the cafeteria tastes good."

"indeed."

Hearing what Fujimaru Ritsuka said, Mashu smiled again:

"The miso soup is also delicious...and the feeling of everyone gathering together to eat is like returning to the Chaldean cafeteria."

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka thought about the hellish scene in the Chaldean cafeteria every time it was time to eat, like a battlefield, and scratched his cheek with some shame and said:

"I think this statement is a little offensive to the cafeteria and students of this school."

"Eh?"

…

Beside them, everyone was a little concerned after hearing the conversation between the two. At this time, Yueqiu Xianglian suddenly became curious and said:

"Speaking of which, what do Ritsuka and Mashu do? You don't seem to be students, right?"

"Well..."

There was no need to hide this issue, so Fujimaru Ritsuka took out the business card of the firm again and handed it to Emperor Akatsuki and Tsukioka Karian.

"Chaldea Mystery Agency...Hey, it sounds so powerful!"

Yueqiu Xianglian couldn't help but let out an exclamation, and Huanggong Xiao was also a little surprised and said:

"I didn't expect you to have such a profession. No wonder you would be interested in this kind of thing, but..."

He looked at Minami Hizuru next to him and wondered how she got involved with Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others and became good friends.

Nanfang Rihe's expression remained normal and he completely ignored the other party's observation.

So he could only retract his gaze with boredom, then thought of something again, raised his eyebrows slightly at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said:

"Since you are leaving so soon, it means that the [Blue Spider Curse] is not a real curse, right?"

Although it was a question, Huang Gongxiao's tone was quite firm.

Because although he is interested in events such as Zashiki Warashi and the [Blue Spider Curse], he does not believe in the existence of mysterious power unless he can see it with his own eyes.

"No, I think..."

Hearing what he said, Fukami Natsuhiko, who already roughly understood the inside story, couldn't help but want to refute, but was stopped by Lianhua on the side.

Fujimaru Ritsuka also smiled noncommittally:

"maybe."

Now that all the problems have been solved, the short-term trip of two days and one night planned by her and Matthew has come to an end, and it is time to prepare to go back.

However, Nanfang Hizuru and Fukami Natsuhiko, who also knew the inside story, chose to stay here to accompany Emperor Akatsuki and the others in their investigation.

Although the [Blue Spider Curse] has been completely eliminated by Fujimaru Ritsuka and others, this matter cannot be told to others, and the rumors that have just spread throughout the school do not dissipate so easily.

Huang Gongxiao is ready to explain the phenomena that happened before from a scientific perspective. This is just a good opportunity to dispel the rumors.

For Southern Hizuru, the reactions, words and deeds of these innocent girls who were induced by man-made rumors during the whole process are also a rare writing material.

Cold writer.

On the other side, Fukami Natsuhiko’s reason for staying is very simple.

Although he didn't explain it, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he simply wanted to accompany Lianhua.

So after returning to Azi Hotel in the afternoon, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu prepared to check out and leave.

At this time, Lianhua's figure appeared in front of them again.

"Li Xiang, Mashu."

"Lianhua?"

Seeing Renge suddenly appear, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu were a little surprised. Then, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and asked:

"Is there a problem?"

"...I'm here to say thank you to you."

After a moment of silence, Lianhua bowed deeply to them, but the two of them looked at each other in confusion.

Why don't they remember anything they have done that deserves the other person's thanks?

Seeing this, Lianhua lowered her head slightly and said:

"I want to thank you for eliminating the resentment left by the fox girl and showing me the story of the past."

"Through this, I finally remembered my identity."

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu looked at each other, with curious expressions in their eyes.

Indeed, so far, they don't know what kind of existence Lian Hua is. In addition, in retrospect, after watching the past images last night, there was indeed something wrong with Lian Hua's expression.

Facing the curious looks of the two people, Lianhua explained in a deep voice:

"The fox girl is one of my previous lives."

"……Eh?!"

After dropping a bombshell, she began to tell her story under the shocked eyes of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu.

This is a tragic love story.

It started in ancient Rome when a slave girl fell in love with her master, but they were both killed because they violated the secular world...

Then, time passed.

Sometimes, the girl was a queen, and the one she loved was a knight she appointed;

Sometimes, the girl was a target of witch hunting, and the one she loved was an inquisitor...

Two souls in love, reincarnated again and again, met, parted...No matter how many times they were reborn, the two lovers would end up in tragedy, and they had never really been together...

"...In the last life, I was reincarnated as a fox demon, and my lover was the innocent young villager who died tragically..."

Speaking of this, Lianhua's eyes were full of sorrow.

Countless reincarnations, but they can never be together, what a cruel curse!

Renhua continued:

"In this life, among the puppets in the hotel, through the emotions that the puppets had once been given by their owners, with the help of the kaleidoscope, I was accidentally born into this world and became the guardian of reason."

"... [reason]?"

Renhua's own story made them feel mixed emotions, but the strange words that suddenly appeared in her last sentence also made Fujimaru Ritsuka a little concerned.

So, she asked:

"What is [reason]?"

"... Life is the beginning of everything, and it is an inescapable painful shackle;"

"... Death is the end of everything, and it is the last bit of tranquility in life."

"Life and death, this is the [reason] of the world."

As Lianhua explained, she couldn't help but let out a heavy bitter smile:

"And he and I are the existences that violate [reason]."

"The curse we bear may be the punishment for violating [reason]."

They can reincarnate continuously, obviously beyond the death that represents the end stipulated by [reason], which is why Lianhua believes that they can never be together.

At this time, Mashu seemed to have thought of something, and asked Lianhua carefully:

"Miss Lianhua, then who is 'he' in this life...?"

Lianhua sighed deeply and said:

"It's Fukami Natsuhiko."
