Comet Dragon, breaking into the gravity field

"Second, I will personally delete the photo, then blow off all the thorns on your body, take a photo with your phone, and make millions of copies of it for all the ancient dragons and hunters in the world to enjoy."

Cold sweat kept pouring down Nelulu's forehead, and she vaguely realized that the guy in front of her seemed to be serious.

Having finally discovered the weakness that Naruse Ritsu was so concerned about, she had no intention of submitting to him. But she couldn't defeat him, so was she really going to succumb to his tyranny?!

Come up with something! Nerulu! Use your battle-hardened brain to come up with something!

"Look! It's the Blue Star!"

"You're lying, you idiot!" (*fists fist in anger*)

"Guwa——"

20. Photos and Letters

"I surrender! I surrender!"

Raising her hands, Nerulu let out a sound of self-abandonment.

Seeing that she surrendered so quickly, although Naruse Ritsu was a little surprised, he slowly loosened his grip on her.

"Look, I deleted the photo."

Waving the blank photo album interface towards Ritsu Narose, Nelulu pretended to put away her phone.

"Wait—" Naruse Ritsu suddenly grabbed her wrist, "The Recycle Bin and cloud data haven't been cleared yet."

"Ah, ahahaha... I forgot about Lu Liu 223. There's actually this."

The orange eyes met the pale blue eyes, and Nelulu suddenly reached out and knocked on her head, sticking out her tongue and winking cutely.

"gross."

asshole……

Cursing Ritsu Narose in her heart, Nelulu pretended to open the cloud data, but in fact she quickly opened the [Biased Cognition] on her phone.

[Biased Cognition] is a program developed by a robot that, like them, came from another world and walked out of the Tower of Babel - specifically for them, the "abnormal" ones who are incompatible with humans.

Once activated, it can transform the "horrifying reality" beyond the mortals' cognition into "everyday life." This is not about modifying one's own perception of the outside world, but rather shifting the perceptions others project onto oneself.

However, the APP also has restrictions such as monthly limits and offset limits as a backup measure to prevent these outsiders from doing anything wrong.

For example, preventing Ritsu Naruse from pulling off a prank where she pretends an airplane is in close contact with a commercial building in homage to the Twin Towers...

As a Nergigante with top-notch physical strength, Nelulu does not have as many "special effects" that need to be concealed as other ancient dragons.

Therefore, her [biased cognition] quota is particularly abundant.

At the same time, based on Nerulu's understanding of Ritsu Narose, this guy might not be willing to use his precious quota to stop her.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

"?"

Looking at Nerulu who was immersed in her little world, Naruse Ritsu suddenly worried that her brain might have been damaged by the fall he had made before.

"Are you OK?"

Just as he was about to reach out to wake the other person, Naruse Ritsu's right hand was ruthlessly knocked down by Nerulu.

While he was still wondering what was going on, he saw Nerulu suddenly spread the black thorny wings of the Nergigante and kicked him in the face.

He quickly put his arms in front of his face to protect himself. A heavy impact came between Ritsu Narushe's bones and muscles, forcing him to take the attack completely.

"Hehehe, this is my escape route!"

Nerulu had anticipated her sneak attack being blocked. She exerted a slight force on her left leg, which had kicked her arm, and used the momentum to launch herself into the air, instantly creating a considerable distance between her and Naruse Ritsu.

"I'll take your photo!"

Before leaving, she did not forget to make a sarcastic remark. The joy brought by "fighting and winning against Ritsu Narose" undoubtedly made her brain dizzy, and even her flying posture was a little crooked.

Standing on the ground, Ritsu Narose did not take any action, but just watched the black spot gradually disappear into the horizon.

Just as Nerulu guessed, the life that Ming Ling Meng suspected that his wife Si Jiushi's father Seto pursued forced him to carefully arrange his [biased cognition] quota.

He would cross the ocean on a whim to dive and fish in the open sea, and he would fly high in the sky because he didn't want to take the crowded tram that was as packed as compressed biscuits.

For him, deleting the photos was important, but not that important.

Even if the photos were spread, what would happen? At most, acquaintances who saw the photos would tease me a few times when I got home.

Keeping a calm mind, Ming Lai Lu pondered another question that had not yet been answered.

What does Nerulu want his photo for?

Take it back to make figurines? Stick it on a sandbag as a substitute and beat it up? Use his profile picture online to brag about it and then deliberately get someone to open the box? Sell it to a pervert who likes to collect his photos?

Countless speculations flashed through his mind. Ritsu Narose touched his chin, but he still couldn't understand the other person's train of thought.

In short, take precautions first.

Once again coming to [Guru☆Mingbo] where there was zero customer flow, Ritsu Narose walked to the L-shaped counter in the store and sat down. She was not at all as anxious as when she was choosing a gift for Touma Takamatsu.

The electronic music playing in the store overlaps with the dazzling colorful lights on the ceiling, giving people a psychedelic and hazy feeling under the reflection of the aquarium.

At the other end of the counter, Melo, who was sitting in a rocking chair, did not stop him. He just glanced at him and continued playing the handheld game console in his hand.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly said, "Aren't you going back?"

"Isn't it still early?"

"Too."

Taking out the special letter paper and ink from the drawer, Ritsu Narose began to write the letter at his desk.

Throwing the handheld device aside, Mello propped up his cheek to admire Naruse Ritsu's focused movements while muttering, "You only think of me when you have something to do... I'm such a pathetic woman."

"Take it easy, where did you come from?"

"cut."

Amidst the trivial chatter, Ritsu Narushe soon finished writing a letter. He sealed the envelope, signed it with his original name, and handed it to Mello.

[Gulu☆Mingbo] acts as a transit station, and most tasks like delivering letters are handled by Mello herself - this is why she can bring a lot of "specialties" from that world here.

"New World, Coral Plateau, District 15..." Looking at the address above, Melo's expression was a little surprised: "For Qilin?"

"Well, I'd like to ask her to keep an eye on Nerulu. If I'm not mistaken, that guy might be going back soon."

Known for its speed, Qilin could easily monitor Nergigante's movements. All Qilin had to do was wait for Nerulu to appear near a fixed teleportation point to determine her whereabouts.

"Did she offend you again? Weren't you two on good terms before?"

"So it's the same as before, not a big deal."

In case Mello got interested, Ritsu Narose casually passed over the matter about the photo and focused on the second matter.

"Also, I'll have to trouble you to go to the Kingdom and help me find a composer."

"It's really rare. Not looking for a hunter but an ordinary human."

Shrugging, Naruse Ritsu didn't say much, instead asking about snacks that would suit Kirin's taste. After all, if she let a child run errands for her, she definitely had to offer some kind of reward.

It took some time to prepare, and by the time he finished everything, it was completely dark.

"Did you forget something..."

When he returned to the gate of his own courtyard, Ritsu Narose always felt that the wise eyes of the two stone statues seemed to have a hidden meaning.

Without rushing to open the door and go home, he leaned against the courtyard wall, looking into the night sky with an expression as philosophical as that of a stone statue, recalling his experiences of the day.

After cutting the memories of morning, noon, and night into three parts and then chopping them into pieces, Naruse finally realized the key:

"Dinner isn't settled yet!"

21. Tokyo's King of Fall Resistance

Finally, Ritsu Narose remembered about the CD.

Standing outside the courtyard wall of Chihaya's house, he looked up at a window through which light was shining.

At this moment, Ritsu Narose felt like Romeo who had entered the garden of the Capulet family, anxiously waiting for the heroine to appear.

Three minutes had passed since he sent the message. Looking at the word "read" on the screen, he looked up at the window of Chihaya Aine's room again.

Didn’t I just ask her to open the window and throw the CD down? Why is there no response?

Ritsu Narose knew that the easiest way was to just knock on the door, but he had no intention of communicating with the Chihaya couple at this time.

A man comes to visit his own daughter late at night - this kind of thing is wrong no matter how you look at it, right?

I might be detained there and interrogated repeatedly... What if the situation gets worse and I'm treated as a scum who deliberately contacted Chihaya Aine and wanted to do something inappropriate?

Then all the image he had worked so hard to create would be in vain!

Suddenly, Ritsu Narose noticed a shift in the light overhead. Looking up, she saw a pink figure swaying by the window.

Instead of calling out, Ritsu Narose chose to continue communicating via Line.

After he sent the message, the figure by the window moved vaguely, then turned his head towards where Ritsu Narose was.

He waved his hand, and Chihaya Aine in the distance also gestured to him.

Then, an object wrapped in a white plastic bag was thrown out by Chihaya Aine who was standing by the window.

This throw probably exhausted all of Chihaya Aine's strength. The CD spun in the air and flew over the lawn and over the wall. It flew farther and farther, and Naruse Ritsu had to retreat while estimating the CD's landing point.

A writer once wrote in a book: Everything has accidental coincidences, but the results are inevitable like fate.

For Ritsu Narose, being caught red-handed while contacting Chihaya Aine might be his inescapable fate.

Got it!

——When these words flashed through Ritsu Narushe’s mind, his body also collided with the wheel of fate.

"Woo——"

The sound of a car horn suddenly rang in his ears, and only then did he realize that he had unknowingly retreated to the center of the road.

Turning his head, he saw a pair of huge headlights emitting white light coming towards him.

Sharp brake sounds and heavy collisions rang out in the night, followed by a burst of hurried shouts and footsteps.

After rolling around, he lay on the ground. The dark side of Mingse Riku, wanting to blackmail others, was about to arise in his heart, but in the end, his conscience suppressed it.

It is probably difficult to find another Gu Long with such a kind heart as him.

Standing up slowly and dusting off the dust on his body, Ritsu Narose turned his attention to the unlucky guy who had bumped into him.

"Mr. Chihaya!?"

Blinking his eyes, Narushe Ritsu's originally relaxed demeanor gradually underwent a slight change:

(=-=) → (0x0)

The man in front of him had the same expression:

(′⌒`) → (°Д°)

On the one hand, he was desperately thinking about how to conceal the fact that he came to visit the other party's daughter at night; on the other hand, he had already seen the wife madly torturing her husband and bumping into a good neighbor in the community, and the daughter showed disgust and blamed her father for hurting the new friend's miserable end.

To be honest, I was a little sweaty.

"How about calling 119 (Japan's emergency number for fire and serious accidents) first?"

The middle-aged man forced a smile on his face, and just as he was about to make a phone call, he was stopped by Ritsu Narose.

"I'm actually fine!" Naruse Ritsu said this firmly, revealing a determined look. "If there's nothing else, I'll go home first."

"No, you should go to the hospital for a checkup anyway, right?"

The man, who had thought the other party was trying to blackmail him, breathed a sigh of relief, then felt ashamed for having assumed malicious intent. But when he saw the young man turn around and try to leave, his heart, which had been slightly relieved, was once again in suspense, like the Doge of Venice.

I'm out of breath, brother.

You must not die!

He wanted to hold him back, but was worried about hurting the seemingly normal body that had just been in a car accident. The man almost knelt down and begged him not to leave, otherwise where could he go to seek justice?

"Go check it out. What if there are hidden dangers?"

"I have been healthy since childhood and have never had any illness or any bad habits in my family!"
