[Onmyoji] Firefly Shimmer

The god didn't appear, and he didn't want to die like this, so a voice asked him——

"You want to live?"

Yes, he replied, I want to go back alive to meet Hashihime.

"Then, you have to pay the price... You don't need me to tell you this, do you understand?"

Don't talk nonsense, speak quickly.

"I can let you live with your own thoughts. But as a price, you can't tell her who you are, and..." The voice became more and more sweet, "You will turn into a demon, and you will not be the one you love. If you go back with a conscious attitude, you can gain a long life, but you will feel that your heart has been hollowed out, and there is no medicine to save it."

"And these are all your prices."

After waking up with another appearance, Qiu Sheng gained strength and the life to stay with Qiao Ji, but after a runaway on the return trip, he fully realized what it meant to be a demon.

Although the other party was just a monster with short eyes, the uncontrollable hostility in his heart and this violent character made him suddenly doubt himself, doubting whether he would hurt Qiao Ji.

And when he returned to the bridge where he met at that time, and saw Qiao Ji sitting by the bridge, who seemed to be waiting for someone, he didn't have the courage to return to Qiao Ji.Because from the very beginning, what Qiao Ji knew was the gentle human Qiu Sheng, not the current evil spirit.

So, that's fine, he told himself.

The name Qiusheng was completely discarded, only Qiao Ji was still waiting for this person day after day, and the evil spirit who changed her name to Ming gathered monsters nearby to create a monster market, and downloaded [Cannot be in the monster market] Make trouble nearby], personally dealt with a few disobedient monsters, and calmed down everyone.

No one knows what he wants to do except himself.

If you can't tell Qiao Ji who you are, and you have changed, then protect her like this.

Anyway, Qiusheng had already died once, so it would be better to just die like this forever.

"……what are you talking about?"

Finally, Ming was silent for a while, and replied coldly: "Who am I? Of course I am the owner of this market, Ming. And the Qiu Sheng you are looking for," he paused, "is dead."

"As for Qiao Ji, it's just a request that that person entrusted to me before he died, asking me to protect her. What's more, she is better with Abe Seimei than with me, and it doesn't count as a disappointment to Qiu Sheng's request. I That's all I have to say, and if there's nothing else, you can leave."

Ibaraki looked at Ming meaningfully, "Then, let's go."

Yingcao obviously wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ibaraki, and couldn't help but ask after leaving Ming's mansion: "He is obviously Akio, why doesn't he admit it?"

"Don't worry, that person will go to see Qiao Ji."

He looked back at the mansion, as if he saw Ming was struggling, and chuckled: "He has guarded his beloved for so many years, how could he turn a blind eye to Qiao Ji's death?"

No matter how much you suppress your emotions, when you encounter the final choice... it will explode.

"Let's go." Ibaraki picked up Firefly, "We're going back."

Ming hurried to the bridge. As a ghost, he also had the illusion that his blood was surging. Although he kept telling himself that this was necessary, just to take a look, there was also a trace of selfishness in it.

What if, what if Hashihime could recognize...?Then there is no violation of the original agreement, maybe we can stay together forever?Although I can't tell her "I am Qiusheng." But, but...

When Qiao Ji raised her head and looked at him, all the conversations that had been conceived in her mind were discarded, and Ming felt as if he had returned to the time when he was a human being decades ago.

"who are you?"

Qiao Ji asked.

Looking into her eyes, Ming couldn't tell a lie, and finally said dryly: "...I'm just a passerby."

Hashihime nodded, and asked the question that has been asked countless times by countless people——

"So, have you heard of a man named Qiusheng?"

Ming's throat suddenly became dry, and he nodded slightly with a hoarse voice: "I have."

"You know him?"

"Yes."

"So, do you know where he is?"

The evil spirit reached out and hugged Qiao Ji, and gently kissed her forehead hair with nostalgia.

"I--"

He looked straight into Qiao Ji's eyes, looked at himself reflected in her eyes, and smiled for the first time after becoming a demon.

The sound of the river drowned the ghost's words, and after a while, the two of them were no longer on the bridge.

"So, what happened in the end?"

"Ibaraki and I don't know what happened in the end."

With a much higher body and a more delicate and beautiful face, Yingcao smiled and bent her eyes, and touched the heads of the newly born little monsters beside her with her hands.

"After all, it's the story of Qiao Ji and Qiu Sheng, not mine, not to mention that the monster market was still open after that, but the bridge that bound Qiao Ji disappeared... No one can guess the real ending What is it?"

Perhaps Qiao Ji and Qiu Sheng stayed together, or maybe Ming still guarded Qiao Ji who had lost her bondage... But, it was no longer something she needed to worry about.

They have their own happiness, and Yingcao also has her own happiness.

Hotaru was embraced by Ibaraki behind her, closed her eyes and smiled and kissed the corner of the other's mouth.

Next, is the story of her and Ibaraki.And this story is extremely long, witnessing the change of time, the deepening of emotions, and leading to the final destination.

"It's a happy ending, isn't it?"

"Ah."

The author has something to say: It's over!Afterwards, there will be more stories to be written~ so short stories and the like will not be produced for the time being...

I am very happy that I was able to write such a story. Compared with before, I am more satisfied with this article, at least it looks like a complete story... I don’t know if you like it or not?

Although there is still a lot to say, I was thinking about how to end it better, so I decided to end it with a conversation between two people!

The ending of Ibaraki and Hotaru must be a happy ending, I firmly believe it!

Yinghuo Shimmer's book hopes that everyone will pay attention to Weibo w and get first-hand news!

See you next time!
