“......”
A cold murderous aura woke Shiki up. He didn't want this girl to lay a hand on him. She really could do it! If he didn't explain quickly, he might really be killed by her! The system could not save him now.
"No, no, no. I think you might have misunderstood. I'm here to ask for your help! Although I don't know if you've heard teacher talk about me, teacher once said that if there's anything urgent, I can come here to seek help.”
"Teacher?"
"Yes!"
"Who is it?"
"A big sister with bright red hair.”
"Qing? I know."
The girl's expression eased a little. Although she was still expressionless, she no longer had the coldness that seemed to freeze everything.
Since this young man could find her, there was only one person who could do such an unreliable thing. It was her former roommate, the current fifth mage, Aoki Aokazaki.
The girl nodded and accepted the explanation.
She took the lead and walked toward the main hall. She turned her head and gestured to Shiki, who quickly followed her.
After the two of them sat down in the living room, the young girl poured a cup of black tea and handed it to Shiki. She picked up her own teacup and elegantly took a sip, then took a glance at Shiki before drinking the black tea without saying a word.
“......”
Do you want me to speak first?
"It's like this. There's something wrong with my eyes. I don't know what's going on, but the world suddenly turned black and white. There are also some strange black lines, just like a child's doodle. Please!"
Shiki pointed at her eyes as he spoke.，
She looked at Shiki's eyes. His eyes were icy blue on the outside and scarlet on the inside. He must have a very high-level magic eye…
"Graffiti-like black lines?"
Shiki's curiosity was piqued. She had a pair of magic eyes as well, although her level wasn't very high.
"Yes, I don't know what ability it is either. However, if we follow these black lines…"
As Shiki spoke, he traced the black lines on the teacup with his fingers and slid them across the teacup with ease. The teacup soon broke into pieces along the black lines. The edges of the teacup were so neat that it looked like the teacup itself.
"That's about it."
Pa! The young girl dropped the teacup in her hand to the ground. She looked at Shiki in surprise, but her face remained as expressionless as ever. If Shiki hadn't seen her expression, he would have thought that she would treat it as nothing serious.
"The evil god of the Celts, the eyes of Barol? The legendary Demon Eye that could kill gods, the highest grade Rainbow Demon Eye.”
The girl's eyes gradually calmed down. She reached out and picked up the teacup that had fallen from her surprise. With a snap of her fingers, the floor that was stained by the black tea instantly became brand new.
"Then how should I control these eyes? Looking at the world now, I feel as if the entire world can be destroyed at will…"
The girl's expression became serious as she looked at Shiki with a serious expression.
"Your eyes are too dangerous! I don't know how you understand 'death', but you actually destroyed the cup so easily, which proves that you do understand the' death 'of the cup. As expected, it was the eye that looked straight at the end of all things!”
"I don't know what kind of dangerous monster you will become in the future if I teach you. The best choice is to let you die here!”
Shiki's expression stiffened. Was he taking things for granted?
Before Shiki could say anything, the girl's tone changed.
"Because you're Qing Zi's disciple, and she's my only close friend. I'll help you, that's all.”
"Is that so? Thank you! I'm Shiki, Shiki Nanaya!"
“......”
Shiki told her, and she could clearly tell from his voice that he was very happy.
After hesitating for a moment, the girl decided to say her name.
"Jiuyuan Temple has a pearl, an ordinary witch.”
"Seven Nights? He seemed to have heard of it before…One of the four great families in Japan?”
The girl looked at Shiki with a puzzled expression. The Nanaya family had been destroyed many years ago, and she didn't expect that there would still be survivors. Moreover, they had even come to her place. It was really the will of the heavens.
"If you remember correctly, it should be.”
"Should be?"
"That's right! I lost my memory not long ago and can't remember many things in the past. To be honest, I don't even know where I used to live…"
He could use this excuse. Although it might be very melodramatic, it was very useful.
She didn't find anything wrong with Shiki's explanation.
This pair of eyes that could see the end of things could only be obtained after experiencing death. She was very clear about this. Since he had struggled on the edge of death and even died once, although he did not know why he was still alive and kicking, it was not a big deal for him to lose his memory compared to death.
"I see. Alright, I understand. If you really have nowhere to go, you can stay here for the time being. Also, you can stay in the east wing and find a room yourself. You are not allowed to approach the west wing without my permission!”
After she finished speaking, the fairytale witch stood up and walked toward the stairs alone, ignoring Shiki.
Shiki only heaved a sigh of relief after the young girl had left. He then laid down on the sofa.
"Her aura is really strong…If I didn't tell her that Qing Zi asked me to find her, she would have destroyed my life long ago…"
Shiki's mind was empty. The witch's initial murderous aura had really frightened him. After all, he was just an ordinary person in the past.
