Killing an old enemy

For Caesar in the next few days, it was spent in drafts flying around.

Whether it is Gilgamesh or Pharaoh, they are both concerned about this opera, which is confusing. If he has to say it, he can't figure out why Gil will help him so much. After all, the other party's character is not the type to help others.

When Pharaoh asked, he showed a subtle expression and said, "I have to consider this matter."

That's right, since the two of them didn't know when they joined the alliance, Caesar chose to give up asking.

But Nakahara also rejected their opera plan...Nishizawa felt a little regretful about his resistance to being a part of the performance, because from the short time they spent together, Nakahara also yelled at Dazai's tongue roll and high pitch It's really aesthetically pleasing.

But since Chuyayu refused, he had no reason to force others.

Nishizawa is also serious about helping, but the heroic spirits don't allow him to intervene, let him stay well, and Merlin may be the person who is most familiar with the Internet among all the people present. Kiss made some posts online.

—Maybe that's why so many people actually buy tickets.

After all, Salieri did not use his real name—and no one would believe that he is that Salieri—so for many opera lovers, this is the first work of a complete newcomer, but Merlin did In order to promote it, the ghost knows how he lit up this skill point.

Then Mori Ogai also pushed. After all, he did not fund the theater. This behavior was eye-popping.

Linked to the video of the Hong Kong gangster playing the piano that went viral on the Internet last time, those who didn't know it thought that Hong Kong gangsters were going to develop the entertainment industry.

But Osmandis was not very satisfied with this, "...Yu originally wanted to reserve the venue."

For the Pharaoh, watching an opera in a theater with a group of people is really not something he can bear. When did he end up being treated like this.

But Caesar comforted him with a look, making him snort coldly, turn his face away, and accept the situation.

Surprisingly, Gilgamesh felt good about this. He quickly integrated into the human race as a Heroic Spirit. Apart from laughing happily from time to time, he sat at the front of the theater with a drink at other times, acting quite Tolerance "I think it would be better to have human beings involved!"

"..." Sure enough, compared to Joy, this one is still the best.

When it came to the day of the opera, Caesar sat comfortably in his seat, and planned in private, to find a way to bring Mozart to the scene-now he has reached this method-and then have a happy ending .

Gilgamesh sat alone in the middle of the first row, and the surrounding seats were all empty. I don't know if he was so domineering and didn't allow other people to sit with the king, or because he was squeezed out by the heroic spirits.

Caesar preferred the second one, because even Osmandis and Lucius sat peacefully on the left and right of Merlin.

In the end, for some reason, just as he came to the vacant position in the middle of the second row, Morgan stood up on the edge

gave him a push.

Then came Merlin's voice, "Go to the backstage and have a look, I have cast confusion magic on my king to cover up his aura."

"..." Caesar showed a confused expression, but he stood up anyway, "Okay."

His brows were furrowed, and he lifted the curtain and came backstage with a feeling of doubt as to what the Heroic Spirits were going to do.

Once Salieri became serious, he was completely different from before, and he didn't know how he hooked up with Ranpo. Anyway, when Nishizawa went to fetch him again, he found that Edogawa Ranpo was in front of him. Sitting on the table in the room and reading a book.

Although Merlin told him that he had already installed confusion magic on him, there was a high probability that Salieri would not go mad because of his appearance, but in Caesar's opinion, it was about to end soon. The probability is still not to gamble.

He just stood at the door and glanced inside, while Salieri himself was sitting on a chair in the room, with his head bowed and fiddling with the draft in his hand.

"... Random steps?" Caesar hesitated to call out the other party's name.

Hearing this, Edogawa put down his book in a random manner and jumped off the table, bouncing towards him, like a childish child.

"It's really not easy to find you!" Luanbu said, his hand was in his pocket, "After I met you last time, I was almost forgotten by you."

"What did you lose?" Caesar looked at him.

"A very important thing, the trump card that will make you feel good about Lord Ranpo." Ranpo complained, "Where did it go?"

"..."

"Actually, Master Ranpo can tell you directly, but in this case, there will be no drama! You must open it yourself."

……what.

While the other party was rummaging through his pocket, Caesar glanced at Salieri again, which was more important, "Are you ready?"

Only their heroic spirits know what they are talking about, not only because of the opera that will be launched this afternoon, but also because of the matter they discussed, if Salieri is clear, they will leave...

Thinking of this topic made Caesar feel very uncomfortable, although he didn't know why he thought so.

Salieri picked up the draft on the table, put his arms on the table, and said casually, "What about you?"

"Yu?" Caesar pointed at himself, "Yu, I should... also have to leave."

He went through the recent events in his mind, Gilgamesh didn't say anything, he didn't know how to get a physical body, this is not within his management, the old enemy group will leave after this opera, Oh, and Arjuna and Karna—

Since the world has not been destroyed these days, there is no surprise for this pair of old enemies

If so, he should also come to the opera scene.

After all... Caesar took a look at his synchronization rate, and it didn't drop, which meant that the two hadn't left this world.

"This is very good." Salieri picked up the baton on the table and stood up, "It's just that there are many audiences from other eras in the audience."

"It's good if you think so." Caesar said, "I thought you wouldn't get used to it."

"A musician doesn't find fault with his audience."

Nishizawa is happy to see him calling himself a musician because

After being twisted into an innocent monster, Salieri rarely claims to be the music master he once was, so it is very rare that he is now carefully prepared for his and Salieri's opera.

Seeing that Salieri started to straighten his clothes standing in front of the mirror, Caesar stepped back and was about to turn around and leave to return to the audience seats.

But Luanbu reached out and grabbed his sleeve.

"I found it." After finishing speaking, he handed over a crumpled note, "But this is a secret, you have to promise Lord Ranpo not to let other enemies see it."

Caesar wondered, "Do you have enemies?"

Seriously, no one has a dislike for random steps, just like no one has a dislike for a kitten lounging on the side.

"Lovely Mr. Hat, Dazai, Detective Ayatsuji..." Ranpo said one by one while wagging his fingers, "Oh, the last one is already out."

"And vicious dogs," he added, squinting.

...Oh, it turned out to be the enemy in this regard.

Nishizawa didn't know why he was so interested in being his Master, but the truth was, he didn't want an actual Master to exist at all.

As I said a long time ago, Nishizawa hates the idea of ​​being "someone's heroic spirit". He doesn't think that after being summoned, he will be possessed by the other party. This is really unreasonable. Besides, even if there is a master , He will not obey the orders of others to do things.

"Did you see it?" He looked at Ranbu, "What is Yu's true thought?"

"I know." Ranpo said, he let go of the hand holding him, "You don't want to have a master! Lord Ranpo knows, but he is just a little interested in you. You can read it and I will give it to you. My secret note, and then decide whether you want to have a good impression of me."

"...It's not the way to have a good impression." Nishizawa said, "But you know that I don't want the Master, that's good."

Ranbu smiled slyly at him, then took out a candy and stuffed it into Caesar's pocket.

"Then, the deal is established." He said self-consciously, then turned and walked back into the room, "Salieri, the one we talked about last time..."

Caesar looked at the note in his hand, he thought about it, but didn't open it yet.

Following his inner thoughts, Nishizawa turned around and left the stage, feeling that the air was a little stuffy, so he turned a corner in a depressed mood, and walked towards the outside of the theater, preparing to take a breath, and finally took a look at Yokohama.

When passing by the auditorium, he caught a glimpse of two people sitting side by side near the exit. Arjuna's face was dark and he looked quite speechless. He didn't notice Caesar, but Karna felt it. He casts his gaze, then pulls a little

Take a look at the corner of your mouth.

It was a simple smile, but mixed with gratitude and joy.Karna seldom smiles, he is a person who looks as indifferent as he speaks, so it seems that the arc of his mouth is even rarer now, he is really happy.

"Thank you." Karna said silently.

Caesar felt that his mood has become better because of this. If there is any advantage to his treasure, this is it.

But when he walked out the door, he found a figure.

The other party was walking towards him, and it became clearer and clearer that it was the person he least wanted to see right now—Chuya Nakahara.

Beside him was Ryunosuke Akutagawa in a black windbreaker. This vicious dog was much calmer than when he first saw it. Extraordinary attention.

After talking to Osmandis that day, Caesar thought everything through and started to walk around the Central Plains. He didn't really hope that he would be slapped in the face for some reason in the end, so he could leave without any intersection. That's the best ending.

So he glanced at the other party, turned around and was about to go back to the theater.

But Zhong Yuanzhong also seemed to know his reaction, he didn't say anything, just glanced at Caesar, and then looked away.

Just this one glance made Nishizawa very dissatisfied, Nakahara Zhong also pretended not to see him according to his wish, Nishizawa should have been satisfied, but a rare irritability surged into his heart— —He hasn't said anything yet, what's going on with Nakahara Chuya's reaction?

So the movement of turning around stopped, and Caesar walked in the direction of the two.

"Akutagawa." He first pointed out the identity of the person beside him, "Aren't you Yu's subordinate?"

Akutagawa "..."

Zhongya Zhongyuan: "A few days ago, you asked the boss to remove your status as a Hong Kong gangster cadre."

"..."

"So Akutagawa continues to be the captain of the team directly under his leader."

It seems that there is such a thing, Nishizawa tacitly wants to leave with Osmandis, as a heroic spirit who has threatened Mori Ogai many times, he decided to continue to scare him for the last time, so he threatened the other party in a playful way One pass, and it finally came true.

Mori Ogai's expression seemed to be full of regret, and he said, "So fast."

Caesar was not surprised that the other party knew that he was leaving, so this time he did not express any opinion on his true feelings.

"Heroic spirits shouldn't have stayed in this world for too long." He said, "Otherwise, the world would be messed up, and this is for your own good."

But Mori Ogai looked at him with that kind of clear eyes, "Is this the reason you gave yourself?"

Caesar stretched out his hand, making a gesture to discharge, and threatened, "Smart words."

Mori Ogai smiled, "Probably, I wanted you to bring Akutagawa with me, but you haven't really understood that kid, have you?"

He personally guessed that Akutagawa Ryunosuke should also fall into that range.

Nishizawa said that if he gets to know him better, he won't be able to leave, and the Central Plains will be a bit exhausted. He really didn't know that he would have such a strong curiosity about a human being. It was abnormal as if something came from Merlin. spell.

But even though he was muttering the truth in his heart, he would never say that.

……

"I thought you were avoiding me." Zhong Yuanzhong also seemed to not know what tact is, "What made you change your mind?"

"Yu is angry." Caesar said.

Zhong Yuanzhong also said irritably, "I'm not even angry with you yet."

Isn't Caesar always in control?

"What are you up to these days?"

Faced with his question, Nakahara reached out and touched the back of his neck, adjusted the position of the choker, "I..."

Caesar had a bad feeling in his heart, "Forget it, I don't want to hear it anymore."

"The question that has been asked has no reason to be retracted." But unexpectedly, Nakahara Chuya said forcefully, and he took a step towards Nishizawa, "Why don't you want to hear it? Because will it affect you?"

At this moment, Akutagawa's cell phone text message rang, he glanced at the two of them, took a step back, and the eyes of the two moved to him.

"Next—"

"I see, it's the bastard Dazai again." Nakahara Nakaya waved his hand, "Go if you want, I have no reason to stop you now."

But Akutagawa looked at Nishizawa, the vicious dog frowned, and seemed to want to say something.

It was Nishizawa who said, "Our agreement is about to be cancelled... Regarding that, Dazai... All I can say is that he doesn't treat you as he seems."

He frankly admitted his mistake, and conveniently tricked Osamu Dazai.

"You are indeed his most proud disciple." Caesar said, "I can assure you of this. I wonder if it has comforted you?"

Ryunosuke Akutagawa seemed to be enchanted... It took a while before he came back to his senses.

But he didn't say anything, just took a deep look at Caesar, with an inexplicably complicated expression, then he turned around and left neatly.

"..."

Nakahara Chuya: "If you say that, the boss will probably cry."

"You have to trust Akutagawa." Nishizawa said, "He's not as simple as he looks on the surface."

"Okay, let's talk about our business now."

Hearing this, he simply and neatly shifted to the topic he wanted to talk about, which had been interrupted many times, and Nakahara Chuya planned to say it this time.

At this time, even if the world is destroyed in the next moment, there is no way to stop him from expressing his thoughts.

"I know we're not familiar yet." Nakahara said, crossing his arms, "However, I don't think this cold treatment is the end."

Cizer paused, "What do you want to say?"

"The wild god in my body may disappear one day, or it may never disappear, but you are different. Caesar, according to the information I learned some time ago, the reason why you become conceptual is that Because you don't have your own treasure."

Facing his words, Nishizawa felt very surprised, because Zhongya Nakahara had collected so much information about him without him knowing.

He never seemed to notice this, no...or rather, selectively ignored it.

In fact, a long time ago, the Central Plains was looking for the king of the Hittite Empire with the name "Xize". He just didn't think he should say it.

"You seem to be able to use thunder and lightning... have you ever thought that this is actually the same as

your legend about? "

Caesar opened his eyes wide, and after a while, he returned to normal.

"...I haven't thought about it."

"So I was thinking, maybe this is the direction you should have." Nakahara Chuya said, "I have collected information, the Hittite Empire was famous for its battles and iron weapons before its collapse, so the thunder and lightning should be the abnormality of iron weapons." Change……"

His words ended when Caesar rushed forward and hugged him.

Zhong Yuanzhong was also quite at a loss, "What's wrong?"

"Chuya..." Nishizawa said, "Do you know Karna? I heard him say something."

That was a few nights ago, when Karna first appeared, he thought Caesar was Arjuna, but then, Karna quickly realized that he was actually Caesar and Arjuna, a bound conceptual mixture of .

"The insight of the poor" saw through Caesar's deepest thoughts, so the Son of the Sun God planned to say something.

Although Karna was extremely uneven and disturbed in his life, he was lucky enough to meet a certain Master.

He knew that his words were not very attractive, but the master made him understand that some feelings must be spoken out. He kept this sentence in his heart and decided to take practical actions in the future—if he saw Ah again At that time, he would choose to sit down and explain clearly.

However, Nishizawa missed the point, and was surprised that he remembered what his Master said.

Karna's response to this is "There is no need to be too constrained by one's identity, learn to cherish the things in front of you."

Caesar was amazed at his bluntness and regretted his hesitation and wasted time.

Really... Why did he finally understand such a simple truth now that he hugged Chuya Nakahara?

"Yu should know you better and get along with you more." Caesar said in a low voice, "Now, Yu regrets that he didn't do this."

This feeling is inexplicable, like a curious mutation, a small seedling born of this is taking root and sprouting.

Caesar doesn't know what it will look like in the end, but only knows that from now on, there is no need for it to continue to grow... because after this opera is over, he will leave, this is the end of the story, a non-human and a heroic spirit There is a full stop in between.

In his ears, there seemed to be a few strands of music floating out, like an hourglass turned upside down, gradually counting down to the end.

"I said I was the same, would you believe it?" Zhong Yuan Zhong also said, mocking himself, "Actually, I don't know too well, maybe it will end like this."

Given a little more time...it might be very different, but that's just a self-righteous guess.

only--

"Chuya, do you know Chaldea?" Caesar suddenly thought of something, he let go of Zhongyuan Chuya, and asked in a hurry, "Is there Chaldea here?"

His heart jumped rapidly, and a wonderful thought came to his atrium.

"... Chaldea?"

But Zhongyuan Zhongye's doubtful voice made Caesar's heart sink.

That's right... If Chaldea was established here, how could it be impossible to contact Tachika Fujimaru...

Originally, what he was thinking was that if there was Chaldea here, it meant that he and Nakahara would definitely meet again, because if nothing else happened, after returning to the Seat of Heroes, he would respond to Fujimaru Tachika's call Came to Chaldea and became a heroic spirit there.

But if there is no Chaldea here, then they are really saying goodbye this time.

"A note." Zhong Yuanzhong also said, he pointed, "This is your thing."

Because he released Nakahara Chuya a little too much before, causing the note in Qianqian's pocket to fall out, which was stuffed into him before Ranpo.

Caesar bent down to pick it up, thought about it, and opened it at this moment to see what Luanbu was trying to do.

"..."

When he saw the words above, he was stunned.

Could it be that... this detective was investigating this before...

No, maybe the heroic spirits who sent him to the backstage already knew this, so they asked him to go to Salieri, and then took the note from Ranpo to let him know that he didn't need it at all. Tangled...

This is too bad fun!Especially Osmandis, he is still not his only old enemy!

Zhong Yuanzhong also saw that he paused, looked over his head, and looked at the undisguised note with a short sentence written on it.

—Chaldea, Antarctica.

"..."

Looking at it again, Caesar has completely cheered up, he took a step back, and landed in a position far away from him, "Cough...forget what Yu said just now."

"..." Zhong Yuanzhong also narrowed his eyes, "So you are the kind of person who doesn't know the final ending.

The type who won't tell me what's on my mind? "

Caesar returned to his original appearance, and retorted, "It's not right for you to say that, Chuya."

"..."

"You can work in Hong Kong and Heilongjiang. Yu is a job change." Nishizawa said, and began to talk about him, "It's just that Yu is protecting Lixiang in Chaldea, helping to collect materials, and occasionally saving the world. Most of the time It's on unpaid leave."

"Antarctica?"

"Because Lixiang is a polar scientist."

Central Plains Chuya "..."
