If you are afraid of pain, the pain should be at the lowest level, right?

"It's bad."

She said to herself, "You found out."

"Ou↑Ni↓ Sauce~"

It was the first time that Jianren Qihai saw Qihai Qiuzi like this.

The long transparent and bright blue hair that was originally like a god faded away, and the transparent sea-blue eyes also seemed to fade, brewing unprovoked darkness.

"Hee hee~"

"Then, please forget about all this."

【Data Rollback】

- program or data processing error, the act of restoring the program or data to the last correct state.

Jianren Qihai rescued a little girl from the fire.

Jianren Qihai adopted her.

This is what mature and reliable adults should do.

"Don't be afraid." He knelt down and said this to the child who was stunned in place, stroking her hair over and over again, as if trying to reassure her.

"O... Ni-chan...?"

She showed a pale and feeble smile, grasped the clothes tightly with both hands, leaned back slightly, a little scared.

"Correct."

The mature and reliable adult embraced the trembling Qihai Qiuzi with his body, and comforted him silently.

(The brain is about to explode.)

Qihai Qiuzi had a mouthful of blood in his mouth, trembling all over.

(I didn't expect data rollback... so much energy.)

Even if the pain was adjusted to the lowest level, Nanami Qiuzi couldn't bear to forcibly deprive a large amount of data from her mind-such pain forced her to use Dunshun Liuhua to reject this phenomenon in the first place.

——Thus, her data was not deprived.

It didn't feel good for MP to be emptied in an instant, her legs were so weak that she could hardly stand up.

Comprehending Qihai Qiuzi's trembling all over and her small face turning pale, Jianren Qihai, who was terrified, grasped her little hand tightly and hugged her in a princess hug.

"go home."

This is a broad chest, a strong and powerful heartbeat vibration.

is beating.

is warm.

can be perceived.

She hugged the other man's neck and rubbed her head on his shoulder.

"Okay, Oni-chan..."

The voice was somewhat suppressed and weird, as if there was a layer of window screen that could not be understood clearly. Jianren Qihai only thought that Qiuzi had suffered a huge blow, and did not accept it for a while.

He was silent, not knowing how to comfort the little girl.

"I'm fine..." She said in a low voice, "It's, I'm fine~"

She hugged the other party's neck, and slowly grinded the soft flesh in her mouth with her teeth, little by little, until she tasted the blood, and then she licked the blood with her deep tongue, and there were countless eyes in her dark eyes. Bright——

She repeated again, "It's, it's all right."

Jianren Qihai breathed a sigh of relief.

He originally thought that coaxing children would be a very troublesome thing, but now it seems that it is not so bad.

He took the other party back home, and called Yizhi Jiegao to let him deal with the funeral.

Nanami Qiuzi is very good.

So well-behaved that Jianren Qihai thought that the other party hadn't reacted from the huge blow.

With a pair of empty eyes, he stared blankly at the front, his little hands refused to let go of him no matter what.

(poor child.)

Jianren Qihai sighed.

"We will be family from now on."

"family?"

She raised her head, as if savoring the two words carefully.

(family?)

"Yes." He said, "We will live together, and I will grow up with you."

"Happy or sad, you can come to me and tell me. If you want to cry, I can lend you my shoulder."

"—This is the responsibility of adults."

"—and you are still a child, you can enjoy all this without fear."

Qihai Qiuzi's eyes widened, and he looked at the other party in disbelief.

She felt a warm fire in her chest.

Numb, crispy.

This feeling of indistinctness clicked through the whole body.

At this moment, she remembered what Akashi Seijuro had said to her.

【"Then Qiuzi, what is your wish?"】

(I want……)

What does she want?

Nanami Qiuzi herself didn't know either.

She is used to acting recklessly, living a more transparent life than anyone else.

She wants to protect Jianren Nanami, but why?

This is a unilateral give that does no good.

It's not good for yourself.

She understands too well.

It's like a player with God's perspective, doing what he wants in this world recklessly.

Unrestrained, unrestrained and willful living in this world that only belongs to her.

It's like-

As indifferent as a god.

And now, the gods have fallen.

(I want,)

(——)

(I don't want Jianren Qihai to die.)

(Now, present, only wish.)

She saw Jianren Qihai went to make lunch.

She saw her footprints adorning the somewhat untidy floor.

She thought of her time with Jianren Qihai.

He's always... like this.

With a dark face, he didn't know what he was angry about.

The previous chat history has been cleared, and the only thing left is the data in her mind.

"What are you thinking about?"

She looked up, Jianren Qihai was holding fruit in his hand and placed it on the coffee table, looking at Qiuzi in silence with a gentle face.

"No...it's nothing..." She spoke softly, showing a smile, "I just think...why did you adopt me?"

"I want to do this." He sat down, peeled off a mangosteen with his hands, and put it in Qiuzi's hands.

"I'm going to do it, so I'll do it."

Want to do this... just do it?

What are you struggling with?

【"If everything doesn't go as I wish, it will ruin everything."】

What is she thinking?

What is she thinking about?

What is she hesitating about?

No more hesitation, no more patience.

(This world is originally a game world.)

(Just follow your own ideas~)

She smiled, "Thank you, Ernie-chan—"

Jianren Qihai was obviously stunned, "...it's nothing."

Mangosteen is sweet and sour, very delicious.

They sat facing each other, but Jianren Qihai still couldn't connect the happy little girl in front of him with the lifeless little girl just now.

(Did I say something?)

He thought for a long time, but he didn't think of it.

Instead, Qihai Qiuzi who was sitting across from him smiled sweetly at him.

"I don't allow—"

"Oni-chan, this is for you."

She stretched out her hand and handed the candy to Jianren Qihai.

"It's not allowed at all—"

“It's delicious~”

She gave a patient smile.

"You just—"

She watched him eat it.

Tilting his head, he stood up cutely.

"It's such an easy death—"

Jianren Qihai fell to the ground.

"Sorry." Nanami Qiuzi smiled, "I can't accept that ending anyway."

She stood still and took out the things in her backpack.

Once a passerby gave her a gift.

【Su Nuo's finger】

"Oni-chan, as long as he becomes stronger, he can avoid death, right? That little real person seems to be our nemesis... Well, sure enough, it's better for us to entrust each other with souls or something."

"If you eat this finger...maybe there will be another soul-restraining character in your body...Of course, the pink-haired one will eat one anyway, so Su Nuo won't come down completely—well, Probably."

"..."

She remained silent.

She is not a good child, and there are various medicines similar to paralysis powder and sleep powder backed up in her backpack all year round, not only for self-protection, but more often for experiments.

She can do all kinds of cruel moves.

For example, various alchemy potions have been developed to raise bugs—such inhumane life experiments are nothing more than some data in her opinion.

She squatted down, and when she was about to feed her fingers to Jianren Qihai——

Doorbell rang.
