"Ah! Good!"
Himuro Tatsuya responded, then he looked at Gin Yue and Akashi and nodded slightly.
"Then we'll take our leave, both of you."
Everyone else has left.
At this time, only Yin Yue and Akashi were left here.
The cool night wind blows quietly, as if telling the story of this silent moment.
Yin Yue turned her head slightly, looked at Akashi, with some doubt in her eyes, and spoke slowly.
"Why don't you leave?"
Akashi did not reply immediately. His eyes turned to the cafe not far away which still had the lights on.
After a moment, he spoke.
"Would you like a cup of coffee?"
Yin Yue didn't think too much about Chi Shi's purpose and just nodded in agreement.
"Okay! Anyway, there's nothing to do after we get back."
There was a casualness in his voice, as if he didn't mind the suggestion.
Soon, the two people and the cat sat down in a small booth in the cafe.
The dim light shines on them, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere.
Yin Yue gently picked up the coffee cup and took a sip. The bitter taste spread across her tongue, yet it also had a different kind of mellowness.
He didn't say anything, just sat there quietly, waiting for Akashi to speak first.
Akashi picked up the coffee cup gracefully, holding the spoon with his slender fingers and gently stirring the coffee in the cup.
He spoke slowly.
"Come to think of it, this seems to be the first time we sit and talk like this!"
Yin Yue put down the coffee cup, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and replied.
"Yeah! I'm surprised too! In my impression, you're not someone who likes to chat casually."
Akashi looked at Yin Yue and smiled slightly.
"That being said, if it were you, Yin Yue, it would be different."
"oh……"
Yin Yue's eyebrows raised slightly, and her eyes instantly met Akashi's, like two sharp lightning bolts colliding in the air.
He really couldn't figure out what Akashi wanted to talk to him about alone?
"You deliberately waited until the others left, weren't you just here to have a cup of coffee?"
Hearing this, Akashi's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and responded frankly.
"I do want to ask some questions, but it's also true that I want to drink coffee."
"Okay! We've had our coffee, so let's talk about things!"
Yin Yue said decisively.
Akashi was stunned, staring at Yin Yue with deep eyes.
His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate everything, making it impossible to avoid them.
He then spoke slowly.
"You probably didn't use your full strength in the previous match!"
"oh……"
Yin Yue raised her brows slightly, her inky brows looked like the wings of a goshawk spreading its wings ready to fly, a look of deep doubt emerged on her face, and she spoke slowly.
"Why do you ask that?"
There was a hint of curiosity in his voice.
Akashi said bluntly.
"Although there is no evidence to prove it, I just have a feeling, and I believe this feeling should not be wrong."
Yin Yue neither admitted nor denied, but just spoke calmly.
“In a way, I’ve given it my all.”
There was a kind of indifference in his tone, as if he didn't care about the question at all. His nonchalant look made it difficult to guess what he was really thinking.
"To some extent?"
Akashi's eyes became deeper, like an endless abyss, making it difficult to peek into the mystery within.
He murmured, then continued.
"In other words, to some extent, you have indeed concealed some of your strength. Am I right in understanding it this way?"
There was a hint of temptation in his words.
Yin Yue thought about it, then nodded and spoke.
"It's not impossible for you to think so."
Just as he finished speaking, the voice of Karubin suddenly rang in Yin Yue's mind.
"This guy seems to have noticed something. I know what you are capable of. Are you hiding anything from him?"
Hearing Karubin's question, Yin Yue frowned slightly, like two tightly crescent moons.
His eyes became deep and focused, and he fell into deep thought.
"Akagi knows most of my methods. He said I was hiding my strength. I have even used the deeper level of [Selflessness Realm]. The only hidden method left is [Ashura Shinto]."
After hearing this, Kalubin spoke slowly.
"Did you use [Ashura Shinto] when you were competing with him?"
Yin Yue recalled every moment, every movement, and every detail of the duel with Akashi, as if he was flipping through photos that recorded the past.
In his memory, when he fought Akashi, he was very sure that he did not use [Ashura Shinto].
The fierce battle scenes appeared in his mind one by one, and every picture was extremely clear.
At the beginning, he did want to use [Asura Shinto] to resolve the battle.
But later he gave up.
Even the final blow was achieved by using the [Ice Emperor].
If that’s the case, how did the other party notice it?
His heart was filled with doubts and confusion, as if an unsolvable fog was shrouding him.
He replied directly.
"Impossible, Kalubin, I am very sure that I never used [Ashura Shinto] when I was competing with him."
