I will swear to protect the beauty with my life.

Fang Wuwei stared at the illusory figure in front of him. He believed that this was Liuhua's father.

When he arrived at this place, the figure did not exist. It was not until Liuhua and Shihua arrived that the figure suddenly appeared and followed them.

When the two people were fighting, it could be seen that the figure was very panicked and tried to stop the two with his non-existent body.......There is no mistake, this must be Liuhua's father.

Fang Wuwei stared at the figure until the figure nodded and acknowledged his identity.......

Fang Wuwei was very excited. He felt that he was finally about to discover the truth of this world. Ever since he discovered that this world was not just an everyday romance, he had been actively exploring the secrets of this world. He believed that the second-year fantasies of Liuhua and others were very likely to be real. So......

He had a lot of questions to ask, but when he saw the figure in front of him gesticulating and indicating something he couldn't understand, Fang Wuwei realized that the other person seemed to be���How to communicate with him......

It's not a big problem, you can give it a try.

Fang Wuwei's right eye slowly rotated, and he used the power of the kaleidoscope for the first time towards the figure in front of him.

Tsukuyomi!

The figure felt that his mind was in a trance for a moment, and the next moment, he appeared in a blood-red space. Under his feet was water of unknown depth, but he stood firmly on it, and the sky above his head was topped by a terrifying blood-red moon.

"this......? Eh? Can you talk now?"

"Mr. Kotori, welcome to the world of Tsukuyomi."

Just as he was puzzled and surprised, Fang Wuwei's voice came from behind him.

He turned around and saw Fang Wuwei looking at him. At this time, with the help of illusion, he had restored his appearance before his death. He was no longer a vague figure, but a person who would go crazy if Liuhua and Juhua saw him.

Facing this character who was not in the original plot, Fang Wuwei felt for the first time that the development of things was far beyond his expectations, but he still wanted to explore.......

""Child, let me ask you, who are you?"

But the difference is that Mr. Xiao Niaoyou is very vigilant. Why does he know about my family's affairs and how long have you been watching here?

Fang Wuwei understands his vigilance. If he has a daughter in the future, he will probably do the same.

"My name is Fang......No, Touhou Sorahiro, a close friend of Rikka and Yuta. Yuta is the boy who just stood in front of Rikka, Rikka's boyfriend."

""Eh?! Rikka has a boyfriend?!"

Mr. Kotori was very shocked. He hadn't seen them for a few years, and both of them had grown up.......

Although Mr. Kotori still didn't completely believe what the man said, he probably didn't believe it at all. If he could drag himself, who had already turned into a ghost, into this unknown space, he might also have a way to get rid of him.......

Exorcist?

Mr. Kotori sighed. He knew that he had been dead for three years. During these three years, Rikka had never been to this place, and he could not easily go out. As a result, he had no idea how these two good sisters Rikka and Juka had become so.........

Looking at Mr. Xiao Niaoyou who was frowning and sighing in front of him, Fang Wuwei sat down cross-legged. The space around him began to change slowly. The blood-red moon disappeared, replaced by a classical wooden ceiling. The ground under his feet was no longer water, but tiles.......

I seem to have arrived......Cafe?

(In the Moonlight Space, all time, space, and matter are controlled by the caster.）

"What would you like? Anything is fine."

"......Then please give me a cup of coffee......"

Fang Wuwei knocked on the table slightly, and the next moment, a cup of steaming coffee appeared on his table.

"It seems that you have a lot to ask, just tell me, I will tell you as much as possible in return.......I have some questions for you too."

Mr. Kotori took a sip of the coffee and felt the taste of coffee that was exactly the same as his favorite coffee in his life. He thought for a moment and nodded.

"Then, please tell me why Liuhua became like this......Why did Juuka fight with Rikka so violently?......And who are you, anyway?"

"This one......It’s a long story.......Let me think where do I start?......"

————This is a lovely dividing line.————

As for Yuta, he found that Rikka had disappeared, so he immediately rode his bicycle and rushed more than ten kilometers back to Rikka's grandparents' house.

Regardless of the pain in his feet and the hunger from not having dinner, the first thing Yuta did when he got home was to run upstairs to look for Rikka.

However, when he opened Rikka's door, he saw only an empty room.

Such an abnormality naturally attracted the attention of the grandmother. It is rare for a boy to accompany his granddaughter to play.

"Grandma, where is Rikka?"

"She just came back in a taxi. She should be on the beach now, right? Shortly before she came back, the others said they were going to set off fireworks and went out."

"good......Thank you!"

After getting the important information, Yuta dragged his tired body and set out again, riding his bicycle to the beach.

But the facts disappointed him - Rikka was not at the beach, and even after some inquiries, it turned out that Rikka had never been there.

In this case, it can only mean that Rikka has once again avoided this cruel question, so where will she escape to?

Yuta already had the answer in his heart, riding his bicycle, rushing towards the station, he must be with her tonight.......

Now that he had put on shoes, he no longer felt pain in his feet when riding a bike, but his heart was more uncomfortable than ever before.......

Finally, he arrived at the station on time and boarded the last train on time. He never saw Rikka from beginning to end. He was gambling that Rikka boarded this train and escaped back home.

Fortunately, he made the right bet, or he knew Rikka well enough to not lose.

In the empty carriage, Rikka was staring at the scenery outside the window in a daze, but in the reflection of the glass, she saw Yuta, who was out of breath.

"Yuta......！"

The moment he saw Liuhua, Yuta felt relieved. His body was so tired that he couldn't hold on any longer. He sat down on the seat opposite Liuhua and gasped for breath. He had ridden for dozens of kilometers tonight, and his legs and feet were sore.

"I almost missed it......."

"Why......"

Why did you choose me?

When asked where Yuta was going, she gave her own answer.

"As expected, the power of the Administration is too strong in this land, and the power of the barrier is also very strong. I retreated."

"That means going home, right?"

Lihua did not answer this question, but just stared out the window silently, not knowing whether she was looking at the scenery or at Yuta's face reflected in the glass.

Lihua did not speak, and Yuta did not speak either. The two of them waited quietly in silence for time to pass.......

"Yuta......Yuta, where did you get the power of the black flame?"

Yuta wanted to subconsciously stop Rikka from talking about his old story, but in the end, he decided to tell her everything.......

"very beginning......When I was chatting with my friends, everyone was excitedly discussing where to go, but I always felt that something was wrong, as if I was the only one who was different from them. It could be said to be a sense of disharmony, or a strange sense of loneliness that was isolated from the world......."

At that time, he might have just thought that the normal world was not suitable for him, so he went to fight with Kong Hong and......Nanamiya Chion, let's choose Chuunibyou together.

(Strangely enough, what I wrote here refers to the 8th episode of the first season. In this episode, Yuta talks about his Chuunibyou experience. He says that the loneliness of being outside the world made him choose to hide in the world of Chuunibyou and awaken on his own. But everyone knows that Yuta's Chuunibyou was infected by Nanamiya.......Maybe Kyoto Animation didn't expect a second season, so they didn't introduce the character Nanamiya.）

"Is it the dark consciousness that awakens the memories of another world?"

"Maybe, that's how it felt, so I was......"

Yuta thought back to the notebook, the memory that made him feel extremely ashamed even now, and he held his head and refused to think about it again.

When he came to his senses, he looked at Rikka, but saw Rikka took off her eye patch, revealing her evil eyes, staring out the window. Just as he was curious about what was outside the window, he found that Rikka was looking at him in the reflection on the glass.

"Their eyes met."

The two of them stared at each other through the reflective window glass.

After a long while, Rikka put on her blindfold again.

"In this way, we have concluded a closer contract, Dark Flame Envoy."

Yuta, who was still a little trembling, instantly wilted when he heard this, knowing that she would not change her bad behavior.

""Be consumed by the pitch-black flames!"

Rikka stretched out her hand and said Yuta's classic line, which frightened Yuta and quickly grabbed her hand to stop her from being silly, and to stop him from being silly himself.

Their hands, held together, felt a little hot, and their eyes, no longer separated by the glass, looked deeply into each other's eyes.

A smile appeared on their faces, and love appeared in their hearts.
