Don't force me to use my right fist.

He considered this girl a friend, someone he cared about, so he didn't want to hide this from her.

As Saya had expected, Amakawa Tsubasa's expression turned strange after hearing what he said.

"So, my encounter with danger was also predetermined?"

With a trembling voice, Amakawa Tsubasa asked Saya the question. She had only meant to joke with him; no one expected him to utter such a shocking truth.

"No, I don't know about Hell Correspondence. I only know you might be possessed by the Nekomamushi. To be honest, I only know the general direction of many things, not everything will actually happen." Saya quickly waved his hand. Hell Correspondence is something from Zero-One anime; it would be strange if he knew about it. Besides, not everyone follows a predetermined fate. For example, that upperclassman is still alive and well, isn't she?

"That's when I saw you disappear right in front of me, and in a moment of impulsiveness, I chased after you. No..."

Sōyū wanted to explain, but his mouth was quickly covered by a soft and delicate hand.

The faint fragrance emanating from Yuchuan Yi suddenly intensified, and before Zuoyou could react, she had already moved close to him, her small face with glasses less than two centimeters away from him.

Fortunately, Amakawa Tsubasa didn't actually kiss Saya as she had imagined. Instead, she gently touched her forehead to Saya's and looked at her for a moment before moving her face away from Saya.

"Alright, that's enough. All I need to know is that your coming to save me has nothing to do with this so-called fate, right?"

Tilting his head slightly, his face regained an even brighter expression than before, before Amakawa Tsubasa put the last piece of tamagoyaki into his mouth and said.

Chapter 555 Just a Little Bit More

Sōyū admitted that when Amakawa Tsubasa said those words, coupled with her smile, he felt a sudden flutter in his heart.

Unlike Kaguya's breathtaking beauty, which still amazes you even after watching her many times, when Saku saw her expression as she spoke those words to him, he inexplicably felt a strong urge to pull her into his arms.

But he quickly came to his senses and hurriedly rubbed his face.

"I'm glad you can understand. I'm telling you this because I'm afraid you'll misunderstand if you find out the truth later."

Saku scratched his head awkwardly. He had solved a hidden problem, but for some reason, he felt even more embarrassed.

When Amakawa Tsubasa saw Saya's expression, which she had almost never seen before, she suddenly became interested and leaned close to Saya to ask him in a low voice.

As for what Saya said before, just as she herself said, firstly, she doesn't really believe in fate, and secondly, the fact that Saya risked his life to save her didn't change that.

The fact that she and Saya got along so well

Knowing these things is enough for her.

If Saya is willing to say something like this to him, then it fully demonstrates how important he is to Saya.

After all, he could have simply avoided saying such a thing, allowing her to remain forever grateful for his saving her, which would have been more advantageous for him.

If Saya says something, there's only the risk of him being misunderstood; he won't gain any other benefit from it.

This is an example of trusting yourself.

For Amakawa Tsubasa, nothing could make her happier than Saya's attitude towards her.

"No way, how could that be?"

Sawa's gaze drifted to the side, his speech becoming somewhat incoherent, and he suddenly felt uneasy. He also felt a little guilty.

He clearly hadn't even considered that idea yet. He must not have rested well yesterday, and his mind is still a bit unclear. That must be it.

"Let's pretend it never happened then. But if I gave you another chance to continue what we were doing, would you cherish it?" whl

Yuchuan Yi noticed Saya's momentary embarrassment and distraction. Not wanting to miss this opportunity, she smiled sweetly at Saya and, seizing the chance, grabbed his sleeve and moved closer to him.

He closed his eyes in front of Saya. As he moved his body and face closer to him, a beautiful pink blush appeared on Amakawa Tsubasa's face.

Sōyū was completely dumbfounded. Looking at Amakawa Tsubasa's small face so close to his own, and the dizzying fragrance emanating from her, he was so lost in thought that he forgot what he was supposed to do.

At a time like this, does it mean you want me to kiss you?

Looking at Amakawa Tsubasa's pink lips, which were even more delicate than jelly, Saku felt his heart racing abnormally, as if it were about to explode.

His thoughts were about to drift away from Sōyū's mind, but his instincts were driving him, little by little, toward Amakawa Tsubasa.

"Hell doesn't forbid relationships between men and women, but this girl is technically still a minor. Think about the consequences before you act."

Just as Saya was lost in thought and about to kiss her, a dignified girl's voice rang in his ears, like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, instantly bringing him back to his senses.

Saya quickly took a deep breath and averted his gaze from beside Amakawa Tsubasa, looking awkwardly at Midori, who had calmly interrupted the previous ambiguous atmosphere.

If you were to kiss her in front of her, wouldn't that be no different from kissing a minor in front of a judge?

Sawa didn't believe that the seasons were as lenient as she had just described. Given her incredibly rigid personality, if he had dared to continue kissing her, she would have probably dragged him to the Sanzu River to wash him.

Meanwhile, Amakawa Tsubasa quickly opened her eyes, revealing an extremely shy expression, and immediately hid her body behind Saya, looking like a thief who had been caught.

Even so, Amakawa Tsubasa couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She was so close. She was sure that if Saya had kissed her just now, it would have been practically the same as winning the trophy.

Given Saya's personality, once he agrees, there's no going back.

It was so close! To have such a good opportunity again would be virtually impossible.

You know, Sawa usually acts like he's carefree and doesn't take her teasing to heart at all. She'd been building up to that point for so long, and now, all that effort has gone to waste.

Despite her disappointment, the thought of being able to feel Sōyū's breath so close to her face made Amakawa Tsubasa bury her head in her chest, her heart filled with shyness.

"I didn't ruin your plans, did I? I just came to see this farmland you created in hell. I must say, your abilities are much more interesting than I imagined."

Siji remained as calm and collected as ever, showing no embarrassment whatsoever for exposing the affair between Saya and Amakawa Tsubasa. Instead, she earnestly began discussing serious matters with Saya.

"To be honest, I'm actually more interested in the dolls that help you tend your farmland than your farmland itself. Hmm, dolls? If it's convenient, could you give me more details?"

Shiki pointed to the group of mechanical maids who had hidden in the farmland earlier than the others and were watching from the side. After exposing their little tricks, she continued to look at Saya, who was so ashamed that he wanted to jump into the Sanzu River to avoid their gaze.

Chapter 556 Thank goodness it wasn't that demon god

"What are you looking at? Get back to work! Is this something for two-day-old babies like you to look at?"

With a look of disgust, Saya chased away the mechanical maids who were watching. Ignoring their explanation that they had finished their work and it was time to rest, he grabbed Amakawa Tsubasa and fled to the wooden house where Komachi was.

Shiki simply followed behind Saya with an indifferent expression, waiting for him to answer her question.

While Komachi was completely bewildered, Saya shoved Tsubasa Amakawa into her room.

"You two play by yourselves for a while. I have something to discuss with Lord Shiki."

Saya didn't even dare to look Amakawa Tsubasa in the eye for a moment, and almost ran out of Komachi's room as if he were escaping.

What's wrong with him? Does he owe you money or did something he feels guilty about?

The slacking-off Grim Reaper, who had just woken up, looked at Saya's departing figure with a puzzled expression before shifting his gaze to Amakawa Tsubasa beside him and asking a question.

Maybe.

Still caught up in her embarrassment, Yuchuan Yi could only manage a forced smile before trying to brush it off.

Her answer only confused Komachi more. Had something happened between the two of them? Why did they seem to be acting so strangely? (Loli)

A perfunctory smile appeared on Shiki's usually stern face. Her words were more of a warning than a comfort, leaving Saya's back soaked in cold sweat.

"That was a misunderstanding. I think we should discuss serious matters now, right?"

Zuoyou covered his face. This was the only explanation he could come up with. To be honest, he didn't even know what had gotten into him to do such a thing.

"Since you're here too, can you help me take a look at what this is? I found it dropped by a monster in the real world this morning, and it doesn't feel like a good omen. Have you seen this before?" whl

Saku took out the black aura with the suffix "Gluttony" from his backpack and handed it to the girl in front of him.

The Four Seasons is the most prestigious deity he has been able to interact with for the time being. Her majesty and power are consistently present, so he can trust her in this kind of situation.

Shiki didn't bring up the matter again with Saya. Instead, she focused her gaze on the black mist in Saya's hand. With a slight turn of her hand, the black mist floated automatically in front of her.

After carefully observing it for a moment, Shiki squinted and then returned the ball of black energy to Sōyū. What kind of ceremony was this?

When the monsters' actions were mentioned, Zuoyou couldn't help but frown. He didn't care what kind of trouble they caused, but it was hard not to be angry when they attacked children.

Even after hearing this, Shiki maintained her placid expression and asked Saya.

"Those monsters are probably not the common kind of anomalies, right? Their abilities are much more bizarre. I feel like I'll encounter these guys sooner or later, so I wanted to come and ask them about their background."

Sōyū didn't try to hide anything. He openly and honestly voiced his question and then looked earnestly at the Yama, who had existed for an unknown period of time.

"You guessed right, they can't really be called weird. To be precise, they are the servants of the demon god."

The word "demon god" that came out of her mouth almost triggered Zuoyou's PTSD.

You have to understand that the Right Seat of God exists in this world. If a demon god from the A Certain Magical Index universe were to suddenly appear, it would be no fun at all.

"Demon God?"

Finally, unable to hold back any longer, Saya looked at Shiki with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

"Well, demon gods are a type of fallen deity, but they are usually from another world. If they want to descend to the mortal world, they need to prepare some rituals."

Shiki spoke again, but this time what she said made Saya breathe a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't one of the bugs in the A Certain Magical Index worldview, it was fine. If it was just a fallen god, he wasn't without a way to deal with it.

The existence of benevolent deities inevitably leads to the existence of malevolent ones; this is all explainable.

If this guy wants to invade this world for no apparent reason, shouldn't he at least have a reason?

"So what is the purpose of these guys? Just because they are demon gods, does that mean they will indiscriminately destroy the world?"

Zuo You was still a little confused, but since there was a big shot around, he figured he might as well ask.

To Sōyū's surprise, this matter, for the time being, didn't seem to have anything to do with those guys from the Church of Truth. Had he almost blamed the wrong person?

Shiki calmly answered Sawa's question. In her view, whether it was a demon or a monster, as long as they didn't interfere with the rules of Hell, they had nothing to do with her.

"Hmm, okay, thank you for your explanation, Master Shiki. I think I understand now."

Upon hearing Shiki's answer, Saya could only nod. Given her personality, there was no reason for her to deceive him.

Seeing that Sawa looked like he was about to leave after asking his questions, Shiki stood in front of him and blocked his way before continuing to ask with a serious expression.

Since she answered Zuoyou's question, then according to the rules, he should also answer his own.

Chapter 557 Gaia Soul Ingot

Sōyū was surprised that Shiki was actually serious. Why was she, the ruler of Hell, always thinking about his maids?
