Infinite Comics, Get New Talents with Each Mission

"it's okay no problem!"

Hoshino Ai waved her hand and was about to say that she was fine, but she took a small breath when the wound was touched.

Until now.

The girl finally noticed her palm, which was cut by a sharp stone because she subconsciously used it as support when she fell. However, she still answered with an optimistic attitude.

"hiss----"

"It's just a little scrape, nothing serious!"

However, just as the optimistic girl finished her words...

It was just a scratch, but the color of the palm changed at a speed visible to the naked eye from its original healthy white color to a dark purple as if it was lacking blood.

As the dark purple area continued to expand, strange stripes emitting a faint red light from the blood vessels appeared on Hoshino Ai's slender arm, just like Kabane.

For the residents of this world, this scene is simply too familiar.

Although it wasn't like the crowd who, after seeing this scene, immediately distanced themselves from the girl who was about to transform into Kabane in fear...

But Shikagawa Ayame, who was standing in front of Hoshino Ai, couldn't help but bite her bloodless lips. Her eyes, looking at her savior, were filled with guilt, shame, and despair...

Once infected by Kabane, there is no hope.

This awareness...

For most people in this world, this is an unquestionable iron law!

Strictly speaking, this is not a mistake.

This kind of biochemical infection of the god-like virus...

For a world that is far from reaching the technological level of World War I, this is indeed no different from the work of ghosts and gods.

".....Lord Acorus, please leave her."

The guard beside him knew that this was not human language, but he still spoke resolutely.

"……makes sense."

"If I bite you later, then all this trouble will be in vain..."

death.

It is obviously not uncommon in life, but only when people face death can they look directly at this elephant that has been ignored.

Hoshino Ai, who was able to hold herself together when she escaped death, now knew that she was completely hopeless, her seemingly perfect smile became a little more reluctant and confused, which could be easily noticed by others.

“…Come here.”

"While you are still human, let me send you on your final journey."

Asking someone in public if they are a virgin...

Lingge felt that this was a bit too much just by thinking about it. After being silent for a moment, he changed his words to one that was more suitable for the current situation.

"Ha ha……"

"It seems that Fang Shisang and I are really destined to be together..."

After laughing dryly twice, Hoshino Ai showed a bitter smile, and finally stretched out her other hand, which was not infected by the Kabane virus, to the boy in front of her.

Compared to being alone when she dies, the girl who is already alone now still hopes that someone can accompany her.

Even if it's just a casual chat...

At least it would make her last moments not too difficult.

He held Hoshino Ai's hand and pulled the girl who was sitting on the ground up again.

He nodded slightly to Busujima Saeko, gave her a look that he wasn't sure what it meant, but after looking at Hoshino Ai and pausing casually in a certain direction, Lingge, who was holding her hand, turned and left the crowd.

......

"Bringing me to a place like this..."

"Fang Shisang, you don't have any thoughts about a dying person like me... do you?"

As the boy led the way, she found that the surrounding environment was becoming more and more remote. Hoshino Ai, who seemed to be actively avoiding the crowd, asked with a bit of indifference and curiosity.

"Oh?"

"I wonder what you think of me, Miss Hoshino Ai?"

After turning his head to look at this guy with a rich imagination, Lingge asked back.

"H!" Hoshino Ai replied inexplicably excitedly, "Didn't Fang Shi-san just ask me if I was a virgin?"

"Now you just want me to leave this world without any regrets!"

think carefully……

Hoshino Ai, who had never experienced this feeling before, was actually quite curious about this kind of thing.

only……

"But forget it."

"I'm infected with a virus right now. Fang Shisang, you're a good person. It would be a shame if you were infected with the virus and turned into a monster because of something like this."

The girl, who was in high spirits, finally chose to shake her head.

She doesn't want to hurt anyone.

"Then Miss Hoshino Ai, your standard for a good person is really too low."

Listening to the words that there were so many things to complain about that he didn't know where to start, Lingge couldn't help but complain.

Could it be that a righteous person like me looks like the kind of person who likes to be friends with someone who will die for me?

Ok……

If it was just the undead, Lingge felt that he could accept it.

"Speaking of good people..."

"Are you on good terms with Shifangchuan Ayame?"

"Why did you want to be a good person just now?"

Found a suitable house.

After confirming that there was no one or Kabane among them, Lingge, who broke into the room with Hoshino Ai, asked this question and then turned his attention to the girl in front of him. He was a little curious about the reason for the actions of this hottie who could have stood by and watched safely, but ended up getting herself into trouble.

"We've only met a few times, so we're not very familiar with each other, right?"

The idol girl, who was troubled by her interpersonal relationships, answered the first question somewhat uncertainly.

"As for why you should be a good person..."

"Fang Shi-san, didn't you say... maybe we could use our ideal self as a goal to aspire to?"

"So, I think..."

"If that were my ideal self, I wouldn't have stood idly by in that situation!"

"However, I didn't think I thought too much about it at the time. By the time I realized it, my body had already started to move!"

Speaking of this, Hoshino Ai, who was a little embarrassed, knocked her head lightly with her fist, stuck out her tongue cutely, and made a fake cute sound.

Although it is intentional to be cute...

But because he is indeed very cute, this fake cuteness is just as cute as the real thing.

At least for a moment, Lingge felt like he was being touched by Kira, and he began to understand a little bit about the profession of idols...

What exactly is that so-called shining?

Chapter 15: Aspirations, Start!

"so……"

"Did you successfully trigger your talent?"

As a merciless strength party.

Even though he had some feelings in his heart, Lingge was still most concerned about this matter.

The talent of "wholehearted admiration" that the girl in front of him revealed was quite vague, both in terms of triggering conditions and effects.

But precisely because of this, it makes people pay special attention!

"I don't know." Hoshino Ai, who gave the best answer, shook her head and clenched her fist, which produced no reaction. "But it feels like nothing has changed."

"That's really a pity..."

Lingge was a little disappointed.

but……

Maybe I have a way to trigger this talent of the girl?

Although it's a bit tricky.

"Enough small talk!"

"I'll ask again..."

"Hoshino Ai, are you a virgin?"

Ling Ge brought his thoughts back to normal and asked the girl in front of him again.

"Could it be that Fang Shisang, you really want to attack a dying person like me?"

"Although I don't mind doing this kind of thing with you..."

"But aren't you afraid that I'll suddenly bite you halfway through?"

Looking at the boy who was obsessed with this topic, Hoshino Ai, who didn't want to hurt anyone, imitated the movements of a zombie, and her white teeth bit up and down several times in an exaggerated and cute way.

"Now you just have to answer..."

“Yes or No.”

Linger remained unmoved.

"……Yes."

Looking at the young man in front of her who gave her an inexplicable sense of oppression, Hoshino Ai tangled her hair ends uncomfortably with her fingers, her cheeks slightly flushed. She subconsciously looked away and answered in a low voice with a little embarrassment.

Even though I feel brave...

But when she really said this out loud, the girl found that she was not as brave as she thought...

"second question……"

"Do you have the will to continue living no matter what the cost?"

The boy continued to ask.

"...?"

Although a little dull...

But since the young man in front of her has already said this, no matter how slow she is, Hoshino Ai has already realized the other party's real purpose of bringing her here.

"that……"

"Could you tell me a little bit about what this is, no matter what the price is?"

“Please!”

Hearing that this was indeed a prerequisite for being a good person, Hoshino Ai couldn't help but ask.

Although she wanted to continue living...

But this condition is really a bit too harsh!

"Do you think you have bargaining chips with me?"

Looking at this guy who still didn't understand the current situation, Ling Ge raised his eyebrows slightly and asked back with a little dissatisfaction.

But someone who disdains to hide his actions still answered with an honest face.
