The absolute option of Yuanqi Niang

Apparently, K's words were completely beyond Yuan Qi's ability to bear, her mind was dizzy as if blown by a storm, and she fell into silence dumbstruck.

There was a depressing and solemn atmosphere in the huge room, and no one interrupted.I don't know how long it took before Yuan Qi, who was standing still, came back to her senses, showing confusion and uneasiness in her eyes, she asked in a low voice: "According to what you said, [Absolute Option] and the tasks to crack it are all things that I can solve." The test of becoming a god? What if I fail those tests? You just said 'the only way to survive', shouldn't it be..."

"That's right, you have only two choices in this matter, either pass the assessment and become a god, or be obliterated by the law." After a pause, K added lightly: "When my ability is exhausted to the point where I can no longer maintain your existence When, actually, it didn't take long because I was almost at my limit."

There was a tense factor in the air, and he pursed his lips and thought for a moment. For some reason, some kind of indescribable gloomy uneasiness crept up in Yuan Qi's chest.

Indeed, K had mentioned in front of Yuan Qi more than once about his declining abilities, and until today, she realized that it was closely related to her own existence.But if it was to save her, why not tell her directly?If I remember correctly, it was the same in the previous conversation in the God Realm. Why did K tell everything with that sad and bitter look in his eyes?It's almost like pity her...

"What else do I need to do to become a god? Am I... already a god?" Yuan Qi asked as calmly as possible, suppressing the ominous premonition in his heart.

"Not yet. Although vitality has passed all the tests, there is still one most important condition missing."

"...what is it?"

As if a deep darkness was gradually approaching from behind, Yuan Qi could clearly hear his own voice trembling slightly.Glancing at her, he didn't give a straightforward answer, and K's words in a deep voice were like a heavy punch, which made Yuan Qi's eyes go dark.

"To become a god is to lead to the supreme realm. You need to return everything you have to the place where it should be returned, let go of the person who should let go, and abandon redundant emotions. As a person chosen by the law, you are not allowed to have any relationship with anyone. People walk side by side, and once you pass through the narrow gate of the God Realm, you will not be able to have any contact with the world you were originally in... So Yuan Qi, the last condition is your determination, the determination to say goodbye to this place forever."

The dark sense of despair flooded like a tide, his face froze in place with a blue face, Yuan Qi only felt that all the light around him was gradually fading away.

She, Brother Spana, the partners who finally opened their hearts and accepted them, the warm time spent together...

Ordinary, but it is the daily life she has always yearned for and cherished...

Also, her favorite Kyoya...

For Yuan Qi, it doesn't matter whether he becomes a god or not. Nothing is better than living an ordinary daily life, and nothing is more important than spending time with the people he likes!What did you say that you can't have any contact with the original world?Want her to say goodbye to this place forever?

"I know it's hard to accept, but you have no choice. Although Yuan Qi is no different from other people on the surface, your existence in this world is actually very fragile. The established laws of cause and effect all point to the 'cleaning' of the form of death, if you don't become a god, your vitality may die in an accident at any time, just like what is shown in "Death Comes", you can't avoid cause and effect."

K's eyes showed a little sadness, "Do you still remember the time I took you and Hibari to the God Realm? Genki must be very strange, why Hibari Kyoya treated the last task of cracking [Absolute Option] more seriously than you. Actually It was because I showed him something."

After a moment of silence, he slowly increased his tone, "It's the death of vitality, and it's not one kind, but thousands of kinds. However, I didn't tell him at the time that this was the result of your inability to become a god. You should understand now , failing to complete the task to pass the trial and not being able to become a god, these two are the same thing, essentially the same meaning."

Ah, so that's how it is...

Recalling Hibari Kyouya's expression at that time, Genki's heart became hollow, and his whole body was about to lose strength.

This is real?

Is this the truth?

Is this the result of her hard work?

"I will not listen to you, I will never accept..."

The black whirlpool of despair disturbed Yuan Qi's heart and beat her hard on the head.Fear, anger, grief, unwillingness... All kinds of negative emotions came together. In the next moment, Yuan Qi with an angry face grabbed the teacup on the table, raised his eyebrows, bit his lips, and slammed at K who was floating in the air. Suddenly smashed in the past.

"Liar! As you said, I will become normal as soon as I complete the task. I don't want to become a god! I just want to go back to the ordinary and warm daily life. I have been working hard for this goal all the time. Yes! You big liar!!"

The glass shards scattered, and the teacup that penetrated K's body hit the wall, making a sharp and ear-piercing whine.Breathing became short of breath, Yuan Qi's feet and thin shoulders were trembling constantly.

"What bullshit gods, what leads to the supreme realm, I don't care at all! Whether it's the law, or you, a god who loves to lie, go to hell!"

With tears in his light green eyes, he looked up at K, and Genki shouted emotionally.However, soon, her resentful expression turned to mournful, uncontrollable tears rolling down Yuanqi's cheeks like broken beads.

"I don't want to be...even if I die...I want to stay, even if I don't have much time..."

Probably because he didn't want to cry in front of so many people, Yuan Qi whimpered like a puppy, desperately wiping his tears with the back of his hand.Seeing her so sad, Peng Gelie's 10+ group, who had been silent all along, also showed sad expressions.

He didn't mind Yuan Qi's attitude. Looking down at her, K said in a low voice, "I'll give you time to think about it. After all, the last condition is your willingness. Either become a god or die, the choice is in Yuan Qi's hands .”

"Don't think about it, I won't become a god."

As if stubbornly resisting something, Yuan Qi's voice sounded coldly, and there was no hesitation in the sharp icicle-like tone.However, just as her words fell to the ground, another voice sounded from behind.

"Yuanqi, promise him, don't be so impulsive."

Different from the lazy and idle tone of the past, Spana's slightly serious words were heavy.

"……elder brother?"

Yuan Qi turned around in a daze, and walked towards her who was staring blankly and wide-eyed. Spana stretched out his hand and hugged her tenderly.

"Compared to facing the reality of the death of my beloved sister, I would rather have a sister who became a god, so the vitality is still—"

"do not want!"

Unable to see the heavy sorrow hidden in Spana's eyes, Yuan Qi screamed like a cat whose tail was stepped on as soon as he pushed him away.Whether it was ten years later or ten years ago, in her impression, she had never spoken to her brother in such a tone.

"How can you say such a thing? Brother doesn't understand my mood at all?! I don't want to leave you, is brother willing to let me go? If I really become a god, I will never see you again! That's a farewell !"

"'Farewell' is better than selfishly keeping my sister and watching her die."

Lowering his eyes, Spana suppressed his excitement, and said in a calm and almost heartless tone: "I know that I can't let go of my vitality, and I feel the same way. But judging from reason, my brother can accept such a result. As for Gong Mi... There is no such thing as being unable to live without someone around him, and in his lifetime, he may still like other girls, and time will dilute everything."

From a parent's standpoint, what Spana said seemed to make sense.However, Kyoya would fall in love with other people, and Genki felt very sad just thinking about it in his heart.With a wounded expression of being stabbed in the chest, she shook her head and stepped back.

"Stop talking, bro, stop talking...I, I'm going back, I'm going back to the world where Kyouya is, I'm going back to my daily life..."

"vitality!"

Stop crying, Yuan Qi looked at the crossing ring on his hand with fragile eyes.No longer accepting anyone's voice, including Brother Spana, she pursed her lips tightly, and quickly gathered chakra on her fingertips...

She wants to go back and go.

She's not going anywhere but there!

Bright green light burst out in an instant, and just as the figure of Yuan Qi disappeared in the light array, K said quietly to the air:

"You heard it all, probably only you can change her mind, Hibari Kyouya."

What responded to him was an icy silence. On the other side of the door of the room, Hibari Kyouya, who had been standing for a long time, quietly closed her phoenix eyes, with no expression on her handsome face.

However, the hands that were tightly clenched into fists hanging by his side had been so painful that he was about to lose consciousness due to excessive force.

***

After enduring such a big blow, the only thing that makes Yuan Qi feel lucky is that K announced that cruel fact in front of everyone in the future.That is to say, as long as she doesn't tell, no one will know, especially not let the person she likes know.

When Yuan Qi opened her eyes again and saw the familiar Bing Sheng, she almost burst into tears.The partners who came back from Yuanqi a while ago were gathered there waiting for her. At first, they wondered why there was no shadow of Hibari Kyoya. After hearing everyone in Pengo Lie discussing with great interest how to prepare for the celebration next, Yuanqi immediately understand.

It should be a step ahead, after all, Kyouya hates crowds the most.

It's incredible, even though there is a great sadness hidden in his heart, Genki still wants to laugh when he thinks of Hibari Kyouya's arrogant rejection of Tsunakichi's invitation.Taking a deep breath, she turned around and stepped lightly, leaving quietly before everyone could react, and walked in the direction of Bingzhong.

At noon in late autumn, the sky overhead was a dark, leaden gray.The wind was blowing a bit tight, and the cold and dry air scratched the skin, even as if it was about to penetrate into the bones.However, I don't mind these things. Genki moving forward just wants to see Hibari Kyoya sooner. He doesn't need to do anything or say anything. As far as Genki is concerned, as long as she can see him, she can overcome all obstacles courage.

The distance was not far, and after about 5 minutes, Yuan Qi walked to the path separated from Bingzhong by only one road.A warm feeling arose spontaneously, and subconsciously sped up the pace, listening to the sound of the fierce beating of the heart, Yuanqi ran towards the familiar school gate.At this time, in the direction of the blind spot of her vision, a large truck was approaching at high speed with a rumbling sound, as if it was about to hit Yuan Qi head-on——

"!"

After all, he was a specially trained person, so of course Yuan Qi quickly realized the danger.However, unexpectedly, just when she was about to dodge quickly, she realized that her body could not move an inch.At first, Yuan Qi thought she was being clamped by tension, but she soon realized that what bound her in place seemed to be some kind of irresistible force. At this moment, she couldn't do anything except show a terrified and dazed expression. thing.

No...you have to move, or you'll die...

Before she had time to think about it, everything happened in a flash.

The ear-piercing sound of brakes rushed into the eardrums in the next moment, tightened his body, and closed his eyes instinctively.

The expected shock and pain did not strike, but was replaced by a familiar and touching embrace.The moment the car was about to hit, a figure rushed over in time, and carried the girl who was stuck in the middle of the road like a log away from the center of danger.

"Herbivore, will you hide?!"

The cold voice that has long been used to is now tainted with an extremely rare impatience, and it can even be said to be furious.Opening his eyes as if waking up from a dream, Hibari Kyouya reflected in his eyes of vitality, his face was as pale as if struck by lightning in an instant.

No, she hid, but...

Could that be what K said, the law to clear her from this world?

"I……"

The lips that were biting almost bloodless moved, and abruptly took back the "I can't escape" that almost blurted out, and Yuan Qi lowered his head, "...uh... sorry Gongya, I was thinking about something just now, so I didn't notice There is a car..."

"..." I didn't find it, how could it be possible?

It was very clear that Genki was lying, and he could figure out the reason why she said so. Although he didn't expose it, Hibari Kyouya's face was obviously gloomy.

"I will definitely pay attention next time, promise! Please, Kyouya, don't be angry, your expression is scarier than a big truck..."

If Hibari Kyouya hadn't appeared in time, she might have been hit by a car and died by now. Just thinking about the situation just now, a chill would appear on Yuan Qi's back.However, thinking that people around her should not worry about her, pretending that the dark fear entrenched in her mind did not exist, Yuan Qi lowered her brows, and said with a mournful face:

"Well, Kyouya, do you have any money?"

Sensing that not only the cuff was being pulled, but also the little hand holding his cuff was shaking restlessly, Hibari Kyouya lowered his eyes, and frowned, "What are you doing?"

"I'm so hungry, can you treat me to beef bone soup ramen?"

……

In the cold weather, the ramen with enough soup, full of ingredients, and steaming is particularly craving. Originally, Yuanqi just said it casually to change the topic. When the two approached the ramen shop and smelled the fragrance from a distance, her I'm really hungry.

It's not a luxuriously decorated storefront. The shop that occupies a shed with a small curtain of "Fudo Ramen" hanging down is just a roadside stall located in a small alley in Namori Town.Pulling Hibari Kyoya to sit down on the bench in front of the booth that looks like a bar chair, Genki looked at the store manager with a smile, stretched out his hand and gestured while opening his mouth and said:

"Uncle, two bowls of special beef bone soup ramen, big servings!"

Since it is a store in Nishimori Town, the store manager naturally recognizes Hibari Kyoya.Seeing his deity coming, the uncle's eyes seemed to be seeing a great god, and he responded cheerfully, and he immediately got busy.

Maybe it was not time for dinner, or maybe the chairman of the Disciplinary Committee was too aggressive. Since they sat down, there were no other customers.Yuan Qi, who was used to this situation for a long time, did not feel uncomfortable. The rustling autumn wind blew in and felt a little cold. Yuan Qi leaned against the person next to him very "consciously".Seeing that she was keeping warm, it was rare for him to avoid her without disgust, but Kyouya Hibari pulled her closer instead.

"Before, I ate bread at Wanshiwu for a week. I missed the ramen here. I can finally eat it. I am so touched!"

The warm air was blowing towards the face with the aroma of rich food. With his hands on the edge of the table, Yuan Qi looked happy and expectant, showing no signs of fear or uneasiness at all.His eyes swept across her side face, Hibari Kyouya wanted to say something at first, but he didn't say anything in the end, but the shoulders that were touching each other moved closer, as if he could hear the gentle and continuous beating of the other party.

Within a few minutes, the noodles were served.Genki happily took the chopsticks and spoon and handed them to Hibari Kyoya, but he lowered his head and took a sip of the ramen bowl, all the ladylike demeanor went to hell.The hand that took the chopsticks remained still, and his eyes were downcast to satisfy the vitality of drinking the soup. Hibari Kyouya wanted to laugh for a second, but when he came back to his senses, his dark blue eyes suddenly closed, and the smile disappeared. It seems to melt the ink in the water, and it becomes silent.

——Either become a god or die, the choice is in the hands of Yuan Qi.

——I, I want to go back, I want to go back to the world with Kyouya, I want to go back to my daily life...

——You heard it all, probably only you can change her mind, Hibari Kyouya.

"Kyoya, why don't you eat?"

Yuan Qi turned his head when he found that the people around him hadn't moved, and he was eating noodles without distraction.Seeing his side face as if he was suppressing something, he felt a "thump" in his heart, and Yuan Qi put down his chopsticks.

Why did Gongya show such an expression... Could it be that he already knew?

The hot air of the ramen was still lingering in front of his eyes, noticing Genki's gaze, Hibari Kyouya turned his gaze away.The moment the light in her eyes came over, Yuan Qi immediately realized that her guess was correct.And she could probably guess what he was going to say.

"Ayazaki Genki, you—"

"Don't tell me, ramen won't taste good when it's cold!"

The eye sockets were hot, and the nasal cavity felt sore, and the vitality decisively interrupted Hibari Kyouya's words.Picking up the chopsticks again, as soon as my face was close to the ramen bowl, tears fell silently.

Because of the angle, Hibari Kyouya didn't see Genki crying.After thinking about it, it would be fine to wait until she finished eating. When she raised her hand to pick up the chopsticks, her left hand, the hand leaning against the person next to her, was suddenly held under the table.

The arm tightened reflexively, and then suddenly relaxed before feeling that the girl's soft and cold hand, the right hand, was holding his left hand tightly with indescribable strength.

"I won't go. So, don't say..." The nose was sore to the end, Yuan Qi couldn't continue talking.

Hibari Kyouya tilted her head, staring stubbornly at the bowl of ramen in front of her in her phoenix eyes, and the blushing Genki was clumsily picking up the chopsticks with her left hand.Under the table, the little hand intertwined with his palm, seemed to be angry with someone, and refused to show any signs of loosening.

Keeping this posture still, it was just a bowl of noodles, but the two of them ate for a long time.
