Chapter 95: Storms in Namimori Town are usually accompanied by rain...
"...What are you talking about?"
On the cliff of Death Mountain, Reborn stood next to them, gazing at them with deep, dark eyes.
Fushimi Kyoji confirmed that Reborn was asking her and Gakaface.
The previous conversation didn't deliberately avoid anyone, so it shouldn't be so far away that I couldn't hear clearly.
It still asked this.
Gakaphis turned the uniquely shaped ring on his finger, but it didn't move.
The dark pupils that could not reflect light moved towards the player, as if waiting for her answer.
"I think we should give ladies some privacy." Gakaphis moved sideways to separate Fushimi Kyoki and Reborn, using his body to block the player's line of sight. The unfathomable smile remained on his flawless mask.
Judging from Checkers Face's attitude, there was no way to get anything out of him.
However, the other party did not intend to resist Reborn's conversation with Fushimi Kyoji.
Checkers Face's attitude is truly intriguing.
A subtle thought flashed briefly in Reborn's eyes.
Fushimi Kyoji looked around at the strange atmosphere between the two, failing to grasp the hidden conflict beneath the calm. When questioned by Reborn, he replied, "Actually, I'm a little hesitant about the choice. I don't know what to do, and I'd like to get some advice from Mr. Garcaface."
Reborn stared at the player for a while.
The gaze that had a strong presence fell on her face, but there was no substantial sharpness, he was simply observing her expression.
Fushimi Kyoji also imitated the other person and looked back.
"If you can't make a choice, try flipping a coin." The real pressure, directed at no one, suddenly eased as the childish voice sounded again. It showed the innocence of a baby's age and made a suggestion to the player.
It sounds like a childish move that only a child would make when making a choice.
Fushimi Kyoji nodded first, then asked, "What if the result you choose is something you don't want?"
Reborn raised the corner of his mouth: "No."
Its tone was very firm, soothing the hesitation of the girl in front of it, and completely ignoring Gakaphis who was also beside it.
“When you flip a coin, your heart will know the answer.”
Fushimi Kyoji held the 5 yen coin handed to him by Reborn, thinking deeply.
As soon as the starting gun sounded, signaling the official start of the competition, the six people at the foot of the cliff took action almost at the same time.
But instead of rushing up Death Mountain to snatch the player who represented victory, he just started fighting with the enemies in sight without thinking.
Of course, some of them headed straight for Fushimi Kyoji and the others, but unfortunately, all of them were seen through by Valya halfway and were stopped and intercepted in advance.
The flames of anger gushing out of XANXUS's twin guns collided with the flames of death from Sawada Tsunayoshi, causing a terrifying shockwave that even caused a faint tremor at the foot of the cliff on the top of the mountain.
Fushimi Kyoji noticed that even the pebbles at his feet showed signs of moving.
Wow…
It's really scary.
"Who among them do you think will come up first?" Reborn suddenly asked.
The player couldn't help but utter an "Huh?"
Standing on a cliff that might collapse at any moment due to the shock caused by the fight between the two leaders, the little baby once again displayed a calmness and even composure that was inconsistent with his age.
Reborn didn't point fingers at anyone in particular. Fran and Gakafis, who were also on the cliff, didn't answer as if they didn't hear Reborn's voice.
Are you asking her?
It seemed like just a casual chat.
Fushimi Kyoji compared them in his mind, and because he didn't know the guardians of Valia, the scope only included the three people from Vongola.
The player gave her answer uncertainly: "Sawada-san?"
"After all, Sawada-san can fly!"
Fushimi Kyoji remembered that Sawada Tsunayoshi said that his gloves were good at flying and emitting flames.
"Is that the only reason?" Reborn looked at her innocently and simply stopped insisting on this topic. "Then, let's ask it another way."
I don't know why.
Whenever Reborn said this, Fushimi Kyoji had an inexplicable intuition that the other party had already understood what he wanted to know and was starting to move on to the next topic.
The overly precocious, angelic baby cutely asked, "Which of them do you want to see first?"
This is really a strange question that has no beginning or end and gives people a confused feeling.
When I realized that it was Reborn who asked the question, I felt that there was nothing strange about it.
Children's thoughts are always so jumping.
“…”
Fushimi Kyoji slowly identified the identities of each person from the movements of the person fighting with Valya, which occasionally left afterimages.
Yamamoto Takeshi found an opportunity and made a reassuring gesture to her. His expression was calm, and the corners of his mouth always maintained a relaxed arc. He did not dodge or evade, but held the knife in his right hand to fight against Squalo.
The opponent that Hayato Gokudera faced was Bell. He lowered his brows and his hands and feet were restrained by the enemy. He only glanced at the top of the mountain from a distance. This time, the look in his eyes was no longer filled with vigilance, but worry.
The direction in which Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was fighting with XANXUS, was facing away from Fushimi Kyoki, so the players could not see his expression at the moment, but the gradually growing momentum indirectly proved that he was trying to end the battle as soon as possible.
Which of them do players want to see first?
The question of reborn was never answered in the end.
The result is...neither.
The frog-haired kid standing on the cliff, shivering in the cold wind, complained in a flat voice, "Stupid senior, you're too slow! I'm almost frozen into an ice sculpture."
He rubbed his arms seriously, "Justice Vongola, quickly defeat the fallen prince who bullies the younger generation."
Even from a long distance, one could clearly see the veins that suddenly bulged on Bell's face.
And the flying knives flashing with dazzling cold light, shooting towards them like an overwhelming force.
If I remember correctly, the kid wearing the strange mask is also a member of Varia, right?
Um……
Recalling the deep impression XANXUS left on players, perhaps not distinguishing between friend and foe is a unique tradition within Valia.
Respect and understanding.
“Bang, bang!”
Reborn fired two shots into the air, and the bullets accurately shot down the knife flying towards the player's face.
Fran screamed miserably, holding the heavy hood to dodge, but was hit right in the bull's eye.
Fushimi Kyoki noticed that several throwing knives knocked away by Reborn were attached with red flames of death.
The Death Flame of Storm Attributes seems to have a characteristic...
The ground beneath my feet suddenly shook, and the next moment, a strong sense of weightlessness came over me. The small knife that was inserted into the cliff mountain made good use of the owner's storm attribute.
--break down!
Fushimi Kyoji also opened his eyes slightly wide at the sudden change.
A glimpse of green appeared in the field of vision, and the parachute that Len had transformed into suddenly opened. However, Reborn simply waved his hand at the player: "The referee will not provide off-field assistance. I'm not the one responsible for catching you."
With the resistance of the parachute, Reborn landed slowly.
"Try to save yourself before anyone arrives~"
The player falls rapidly due to gravity.
There was nothing in my ears except the whistling sound of the wind. My long hair fluttered beside my face, floating in front of my eyes against gravity.
It is full of realism, but just on the edge of not making the person involved feel the fear of falling off a cliff.
It's like an extreme sport without any protective measures.
What did reborn just say?
Oh! Save yourself!
So……
"--Open the box!" The player pressed the rings on his index and middle fingers into the gaps in the box tightly.
Two blue arcs of light instantly shot out from the box, landing on the player's face and body respectively.
There is a little more weight on the left ear, and the single-sided glasses are worn on the player's earlobe.
A human figure representing the player appeared on the translucent lens, and the remaining amount, power, and humidity of the surrounding air of [Death Flame] were clearly marked on the side.
The Flame of Death can be freely moved to various parts of the body by sight, eliminating the inconvenience of opening the personal panel to operate the Flame of Death switch.
What's in the other box?
The light structure was made up entirely of four beautiful wings. As the thin and weak wings flapped, fluorescent butterflies were scattered, mixed with water vapor, and landed on her knuckles.
Fushimi Kyoji distributed the flame of death throughout his body to slow down his descent.
"——Caught up!" A body with a faint panting and a smell of gunpowder caught the player.
When I caught a glimpse of Hayato Gokudera from the corner of my eye, he was just the size of a small black dot. In just a blink of an eye, the figure stepping on the CAI was right in front of me.
There was no trace of panic on his face, and his eyes were filled with the unique spirit of a young man. Those green eyes full of confidence and arrogance glanced at her, and the corners of his mouth were pressed down: "Hmph, you know how to use fire to slow down your descent. Not bad."
Plop, plop...
The heartbeat was so clear that it was difficult to ignore. It was beating strongly and rapidly, again and again, as if it would jump out of the chest in the next second.
Perhaps this is why many people still challenge extreme sports despite knowing the dangers.
Fushimi Kyoji was feeling his own... huh?
The heart beats at a steady pace as usual.
After successfully rescuing the man, Hayato Gokudera immediately put him aside, stood on the CAI with him, and stared intently at Bell who was chasing him.
As soon as he escaped from the embrace stained with the smell of sulfur, the rapid heartbeat he had felt before immediately disappeared.
……oh.
Fushimi Kyoji blinked.
"So..." She moved closer to Mukudera Hayato, who was concentrating on guarding against Bell's sneak attack, "Now, in Mukudera-san's mind, am I allowed to ride on the CAI together?"
Gokudera Hayato was stunned, his emerald pupils reflecting a clear light, his alert expression froze, making him look a little dazed for once: "...You still remember."
"So, what's the answer?"
Tsk.
Again...
Hayato Gokudera thought subconsciously in his heart, but he did not frown like before.
He must have rushed here with all his strength, and his neck was even now unnaturally red.
Being stared at straightly, as if he would not give up until he got an answer, Hayato Gokudera closed his eyes unbearably and shouted in self-abandonment, "It's okay if you don't hate me anymore!"
When the embarrassment of revealing his true thoughts to the person involved in public gradually subsided, when he opened his eyes again, Gokudera Hayato only saw the player covering his ears.
"Could you please repeat yourself? Mukudera-san was so loud just now that it hurt my ears. I couldn't hear you clearly."
"Huh? I don't want to!" Reflexively refusing, Gokudera Hayato, based on his understanding of the player's personality, fiercely asked back, "You definitely did this on purpose!"
"Hehehe... Don't try to hide." Bell approached with a smile, and before he finished speaking, he threw the throwing knife in his hand towards them.
Gokudera Hayato quickly blocked the attack with his CAI and let out a loud "Ha" sound: "Hide? That's not my style. Get ready to take our counterattack."
The player pointed at himself: Me?
Bell couldn't help laughing. "Her? Or her faint flame?"
Gokudera Hayato replied nonchalantly, "Ah."
"Maybe she's not good enough in your eyes, but ah..."
Standing side by side made it easy for the player to sense his movements, and the rain butterflies that were originally circling around her fell on the muzzle of the gun.
The melon lying on Hayato Gokudera's shoulder was instantly enveloped by the Death Flame of Storm Attributes. It switched to a form adapted for combat and was lifted up by him, aiming at Bell: "But!"
Fushimi Kyoji raised his gun, and the flame of death he injected made the muzzle glow with a striking blue flame.
A crimson light shot up into the sky from Hayato Gokudera's hands, and the deathly flame with the mist attribute was like a sharp sword, moving towards Bell with unstoppable force.
Bang--
Both men pulled the trigger almost simultaneously.
A faint blue light circled around the eye-catching beam of light and moved forward. Rain butterflies flapped their wings and dropped scales, which brought a calming effect with the properties of rain to Bell, who was resisting with the box weapon, and reduced his vitality.
"Storms usually come with rain!"
