Chapter 19: Create the World You Want
Night falls.
Under the bright moonlight, a young man was leaning against the window, the moonlight shining on his face, forming a half shadow. Hearing the footsteps, he raised his head, his narrow eyes shot over like sharp blades. After seeing the person coming, he was stunned for a moment, and then he relaxed a lot.
"Yo~" Xia Youjie greeted with a smile.
Kanda Kanon frowned, she didn't expect that Geto Suguru would really come.
Being alone with a woman in the middle of the night was a little scary, and Kanda Kanon was a little hesitant. She ignored his words and took a step back, wanting to leave.
"Ignore? That's really sad." Although he said this, his tone did not sound sad, but rather cheerful.
The tall boy quickly stepped forward and blocked Kanda Kanon's way. The dormitory corridor was not narrow, but when she walked in that direction, Xia Youjie was blocking her way.
[It’s so annoying. I received the text message and wanted to take a look from a distance, but he ended up stopping people on this floor of the girls’ dormitory. Is this guy a pervert? 】
"What's the matter? I don't remember that I can have a casual chat with a lowly person like you." Kanda Kanon said impatiently.
Xia Youjie blinked and said something she didn't expect.
"I'm not a pervert."
"ha?"
[This person is sick!] 】
"Okay, enough joking, let's get down to business." Xia Youjie stretched out his arm and once again stopped someone who wanted to escape.
"Tsk!" Kanda Kanon clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction.
"I heard that you refused a solo mission before." Xia Yujie said with a smile.
"So? Are you here to provoke me?" Kanda Kanon stared at the arm in front of her, her eyes becoming increasingly dangerous.
"No." Xia Youjie's voice was calm but also a little inciteful. "I think it's okay for you to refuse."
Kanda Kanon was stunned and looked up suddenly. This was the first time she looked directly at Suguru Geto tonight.
The affirmation in the boy's eyes made her a little confused. According to his current thinking, a sorcerer like her should be someone he despised.
"You are level 4 now? The tasks sent to you should be mostly low-level tasks. There will be many sorcerers who can handle them. There is no need for you to put yourself in danger." The magnetic voice of Geto Suguru sounded, so pleasant that it made people feel numb.
But Kanda Kanon felt a pang in her heart.
"…What do you mean? Are you belittling me? What does it have to do with you whether I'm weak or not? It's not the turn of a poor person to judge!" Kanda Kanon was furious, her pretty face was distorted, her voice was trembling, and her vicious eyes seemed to want to tear him apart.
"Sorry, sorry, that's not what I meant." Xia Youjie scratched his face with his index finger and smiled apologetically, "I just want to say that there is nothing wrong with you protecting your own safety."
"As you can see from this mission, there are curse spirits everywhere outside, and they may suddenly appear at any time. Many sorcerers wear glasses or cover their eyes, most of them don't want the curse spirits to notice their sight and avoid trouble."
"Kane, it's very dangerous outside." Geto Suguru said in a deep voice. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the gentle voice seemed to carry a hint of bewitching. “And the most dangerous ones are not the cursed spirits, but the curse masters who are also human beings.”
"What exactly do you want to say?" Kanda Kanon became more and more confused.
[Can't you just say what you want to say? Don't I know that cursed spirits and curse masters are dangerous? The most annoying riddle man! 】
"Don't leave the high school from now on." Geto Suguru stated the purpose of tonight, which was also the reason why he did not object to bringing Kanda Kanon along for this mission.
[Is this guy really crazy? 】Kanda Kanon opened her eyes wide in disbelief. Does this person know what he is talking about?
[Are you planning on doing some kind of imprisonment play?] I am Gojo Satoru's fiancée now. Could it be that he is still a NTR person? ? ? 】
【nausea! 】Kanda Kanon grinned in disdain and disgust, and took several steps back.
"..." Xia Youjie rubbed his forehead. As expected, she and Wu had similar thinking patterns. No wonder they were an engaged couple.
"What I want to say is, didn't you come to the technical high school just to be with Wu? So there's no need for you to leave the technical high school alone. Look, you don't have any skills, and you haven't trained. A low-level cursed spirit can hurt you, right?"
Xia Youjie hurriedly explained, if he didn't explain anymore he would really become a pervert.
[…In the end, you come here to mock me? He has such a deep hatred and resentment that he came here specially to tell me. 】Kanda Kanon was speechless.
Xia Youjie closed his eyes and was almost angry to death. He couldn't just say that he heard her thoughts and knew that she had the ability to predict the future, so he asked her not to leave the high school.
He wanted to say it but couldn't because of the restraints.
That’s right, the reason why Geto Suguru didn’t let her leave the high school was very simple: it was very dangerous outside.
Her technique is indeed bug-level, but the restraints are also buggy.
From what he observed, the only two people who were restrained now were him and Haibara Yu. As for whether there are other people, Xia Youjie thinks there is probably no one.
From Kanda Kanon's performance, it was obvious that she was unaware of this kind of restriction.
I heard that she was a lady who had never left her home. If anyone was really restrained, they were all her family members and posed no threat.
Although they couldn't convey it, they knew for sure that she could predict the future. Now she is in technical college and the people she can contact are very limited, so he can still take care of her.
But if she goes out without me knowing, that would be bad.
The cause of the restraints is still unclear, and the more people she comes into contact with, the more people may know her techniques because of the restraints.
The sorcerer is fine, but if the curse casters knew about it... thinking of this, Xia Yujie's heart sank.
Fortunately, he and Gojo Satoru mostly went on missions together. In the future, if there is a mission, take her with you when you go out. If there is no mission, keep an eye on her at all times to prevent her from leaving the college.
Xia Yujie thought worriedly. If there was a cursed spell that could make a person smaller, he would want to shrink Kanda Kanon and put her in his pocket so that he wouldn't have to worry about her being abducted by someone else.
“In any case, don’t leave the high school while Wu and I are not here. With the barrier created by Master Tengen here, no external enemies will invade. There is no place in the world safer than here.”
So you should give up the idea of escaping from the world of spells. If you want to protect yourself, there is no need to leave.
It would be more dangerous outside than here, thought Xia Youjie.
"So, you want me to listen to you obediently?" Kanda Kanon crossed her arms across her chest. Her beautiful face seemed covered with a layer of gauze under the moonlight, hazy and cold.
The pair of beautiful eyes that rarely looked directly at him were also full of hostility, just like usual, yet a little different. Xia Youjie's heart suddenly beat violently.
He seemed a little impulsive. He shouldn't have told her directly, but should have acted silently. His words seemed to have touched a string in her heart.
As expected, Kanda Kanon's next sentence left him with a thorn in his throat.
"Has anyone ever told you that you have a strong desire for control? Just because I'm weak, I have to obey you and hide here? How can that make sense? You are so kind and considerate of me, why don't you just eliminate all the existences that threaten me?"
"But you can't do it, right?" Kanda Kanon stated the cruel fact expressionlessly, "You don't have that ability, so you asked me to hide."
"You have to have a clear understanding of your own incompetence. I don't want people like you to interfere in my life." Kanda Kanon sneered, "How disgusting."
Xia Youjie opened his mouth but couldn't say anything until she said this. He actually unconsciously chose to restrict her freedom instead of defeating those who tried to hurt her.
It was so embarrassing. Xia Youjie clenched his teeth, his Adam's apple rolling, and the seemingly gentle but actually arrogant beast lowered his head for the first time.
"Besides, who says that Master Tianyuan's barrier is definitely safe? Where is the basis for saying that it will not be invaded 100%?"
[At least in the book, Fushiguro Shinobu's Heaven and Binding came in openly, and there was also a special-grade cursed spirit named Hanamika! Compared to the outside world, the technical high school is the most dangerous place. It is the place that all sorcerers, curse casters, and cursed spirits who are ready to overthrow human society pay the most attention to. 】
[Most of the dangerous incidents that will happen in the future will happen in technical colleges! 】
Xia Youjie's pupils trembled. He did not expect that Lord Tianyuan's barrier would have so many flaws.
From what she said, there will be more attacks on the College in the future. No wonder she doesn't want to stay in the College, and no wonder she reacted so strongly to what he said just now.
"By the way, congratulations. Now you are the one I hate the most. You are ranked higher than those inferior people. Be happy, idiot." She said some words that were not in line with her character in the heat of the moment. Now that she has calmed down, Kanda Kanon immediately made up for it.
Kanda Kanon no longer had the patience to listen to his nonsense. She snorted coldly and turned around to go back to the dormitory. But then she remembered something, stopped and slowly turned back.
In the dim corridor, the girl's eyes flashed darkly.
"Finally, I'll give you a piece of advice. Your extreme thinking will eventually lead to your own destruction."
[Just like the future shown in the book, when his firm beliefs and the existence he has always despised all do not go as he wishes, the extreme person will become even more extreme and finally destroy himself. 】
Xia Youjie's stunned face suddenly chuckled: "Are you concerned about me?"
"..." Kanda Kanon's speechless expression answered everything, "I'm mocking you, idiot."
[I really shouldn’t have said so much, I don’t care about him! Although the method is very perverted, the idea that Geto Suguru was also concerned about my safety is really wrong. I would be an idiot to remind him of this! 】
Xia Youjie's mouth corners turned up, and his tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed. No matter who she was, he really didn't want to see her fall into danger.
Even if it was not her original intention, because she knew the future, they would not repeat the same mistakes. It can be said that Kanda Kanon was their savior.
There is nothing wrong with her wanting to protect herself. Rather, the fact that she is willing to remind and admonish him at this time shows that she is a good girl.
The kindness she had shown him was something that Xia Youjie could never repay in his entire life.
"You're right, I was wrong." Xia Youjie sighed, "Just keep your own pace of life."
"…Do I need you to tell me that? It's my own decision how I want to live, and you have no right to judge me." Kanda Kanon rolled her eyes at him, turned around and left without looking back.
[Even if I want to hide, Turtle Shell requires me to make my own decision! 】Kanda Kanon muttered timidly in her heart.
This time, Xia Youjie did not stop her. He just watched her walk into her room quietly.
"Bang!" The door was slammed shut. It can be seen that its owner is in a bad mood.
Xia Youjie scratched his head and gave a helpless smile.
This time it was really annoying.
but……
"She's right. It's not her who needs to change, but her environment." Xia Yujie whispered to himself thoughtfully.
In this case, he had to create a world where she could live safely.
He has an obligation to fulfill Kanda Kanon's vision.
To achieve this goal, we must first understand the cause of their death and who their enemies are.
There was still a lot to do, and according to her thoughts, something was about to happen that would change his righteousness. That must be an extremely serious and terrible incident that has dealt a heavy blow to him and must be eliminated at the root.
"Alas, if it was Satoru who was restrained, it wouldn't be such a headache." Geto Suguru's face was full of worry, "It would be fine if it was Nanami, why is it Haibara?"
Xiayou Jie didn't look down on Haibara Xiong, but...
"Haibara, when will you understand my hints?" Xia Youjie choked up and looked up at the sky. The only person he could talk to didn't understand his secret questions, so what should he do?
