I don't want to be a heroic spirit

Today's date can be said to have ended very smoothly, but the conversation between Hoshimiya Rokuko and Gokawa Shido before leaving was very intriguing.

Hoshimiya Rokuko asked Itsuka Shido not to meet other women, including Yatogami Tohka and others, after signing a contract with her.

Obviously, Shido Gokawa cannot agree... because he wants to save all the elves, he can't just turn a blind eye to them.

This was a very scumbag's statement. Shido Itsuka himself was aware of this and his conscience was a little condemned. He was almost persuaded by Hoshimiya Rokuhashi.

Afterwards, Xinggong Liuku seemed to be convinced, and left a sentence "Sir, you are so gentle, Liu'er understands, Sir, there is no need to say more, just leave it to Liu'er", then turned and walked into the space channel opened by [Feng Jie Zhu].

With such elusive ability, Shido Itsuka didn't even have the chance to stop the opponent.

His keen intuition told Shido Itsuka that the words left by Hoshimiya Rokuko before leaving were not that simple.

With different thoughts in mind, everyone spent a peaceful night.

The next day, Gokawa Shido got up early.

Since I'm already up, I should prepare breakfast a little earlier today... Shido Itsuka thought.

Walking leisurely down to the first floor, Shido Itsuka washed his face, changed his clothes, put on an apron, and began to prepare breakfast skillfully.

Then, after an unknown amount of time, probably when the delicious smell of grilled fish began to waft, Shido Gokawa heard the sound of "pat pat" footsteps coming from the second floor.

Shido Gokawa guessed that it was Kotori Gokawa who got up. After all, only Kotori Gokawa and he lived in the same room. Except for those who already had houses, all the elf girls lived in the elf apartment next door.

Last night, Kotori Itsuka was dealing with the search and observation records of Hoshimiya Rokuko, and was still working in Fraxinus until very late. The remaining fatigue in her body should be even more serious than that of Shido Itsuka.

Looking at Kotori Itsuka wiping her eyes and slowly walking down the stairs in a zombie-like posture, Shido Itsuka smiled bitterly and raised his hand slightly to greet her.

"Good morning, Kotori."

"morning……"

Sudden.

Just as Kotori Itsuka finished saying this, she suddenly opened her eyes as if she realized something.

“Aa ...

She let out such a huge cry.

“What, what happened…?”

Shido Gokawa couldn't help but raise his hands to cover his ears and looked at Kotori Gokawa with confusion.

"What's wrong? Kotori, what happened?"

However, Kotori Itsuka did not answer Shido Itsuka's question, but stared at Shido Itsuka with sharp eyes and made a voice full of warning.

"Who are you? Why are you in my house?"

Such an unexpected statement caused Shido Gokawa's brain to crash.

"Um...Kotori, what are you talking about..."

"Don't come near me again! Otherwise I'll call the police! Why can you call out my name so naturally?"

"what……"

Confused, Gokawa Shido reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

What the hell is Kotori doing? Is this a joke? But this is too real...

Just as Shido Itsuka was thinking hard, Kotori Itsuka anxiously grabbed a nearby decoration.

"What the hell are you daydreaming about?! I told you to get out!"

"Whoa?!"

Just like that, Shido Gokawa was kicked out of the house, and before leaving, he did not forget his schoolbag and jacket.

"Ah! Hey! Don't run!"

Such a voice came from behind, making Shido Itsuka feel ashamed.

You just told me to get out, and now you're telling me not to run. What the hell are you trying to do... Although he was thinking this in his heart, Shido Itsuka didn't have the chance to complain. He hurriedly picked up the shoes on the entrance and ran out to the street barefoot.

"Hahaha……"

After running on the street for a long time, Shido Gokawa finally breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he had completely left Kotori behind. He took off his apron and put on his school uniform jacket.

"Really... I'm so sleep deprived and groggy. Bro, I'm going to cry!"

It's the first month of the lunar year now, and honestly it's freezing cold with only a jacket. If conditions permit, he hopes to go back and get some cold-proof supplies.

However, Shido Gokawa was really worried that his sister was still confused. Although he would not actually call the police, making a big fuss might affect the neighbors on the street.

"…There's nothing else to do. Let's just go to school."

At this time, Shido Gokawa was still unclear about what would happen next.

Perhaps he had already sensed something, but his reason rejected the absurd guess.

……

Although it didn't snow, the occasional wind was bitingly cold. The devilish cold wind took away both the heat and enthusiasm in people's bodies. It would be super happy to stay in a warm kotatsu and do nothing in such weather.

"Mr. Yano, is it okay to put this box here?"

"Oh, just leave it there. This is the last box. Thank you for your help again, Lancelot. I thought I wouldn't be able to finish these things today."

Even in the cold winter, Melyuzina still helps others.

"Mr. Yano, are you going to visit your son for the New Year? Can't you spend some time with him?"

"Humph! My brat is eager for me to leave soon."

Mr. Yano curled his lips and complained, "After graduating from university, he claimed to have found a good job in another city and joined a good company, but he ended up being so busy that he couldn't even afford to eat. During the Chinese New Year, his mother and I had to go look for him. It's really outrageous."

"If you really feel tired, just find an easier job. It's okay if the salary is lower. His father is not too old to work, and he doesn't need to worry about livelihood issues. He just makes his mother worry."

It clearly sounded like he was blaming his son, but one could also hear his love and concern for him.

"If you, Mr. Yano, said these words to your son in person, perhaps the relationship between you and your son would be greatly improved."

"No way! If I say that, won't the stern image I've built up in front of my son since he was young be completely destroyed? Besides, as a grown man, I feel embarrassed just thinking about saying these things to my son..."

Mr. Yano decisively rejected Melyuchina's proposal with a wave of his hand, and then asked Melyuchina as if he didn't want to continue the conversation: "How about it? Do you want to come to my shop for a meal? As a reward, you should have something hot to warm yourself up in such a cold day, right?"

"Then give me a bowl of udon noodles."

Melyuchina nodded expressionlessly. "I've often seen Miss Musashi eating, and she always looks so happy, which makes me a little curious."

"She sounds like a very lovely girl. Miss Musashi, is she your friend, Lancelot?"

"She is……"

Melyuchina was about to answer Mr. Yano's casual question, but at this moment, a blue-haired boy ran over from a distance and called out to Melyuchina loudly.

"Lancelot!"

535

Chapter 535 is getting more chaotic.

Running in front of Melusina at full speed, Shido Itsuka supported his knees with his hands and gasped for breath, making people worry that he would run out of breath and collapse.

Seeing Shido Itsuka suddenly running over, Mr. Yano looked at Melyuchina in confusion.

"Is this young man an acquaintance of yours, Lancelot?"

After all, the other party did call out Melyuchina's name just now, so it is normal for Mr. Yano to think so.

Before Melusina could speak, Shido Itsuka spoke first, and without even catching his breath, he hurriedly shouted at Melusina.

"Lancelot! Do you still remember... who I am?!"

Clenching his fists, Gokawa Shido spoke in a pleading tone.

When those calm golden eyes looked over here, Gokawa Shido's heart suddenly jumped.

He has been disappointed too many times, but... perhaps because of the reliability that Melyusina has always shown, the tortured Gokawa Shido, eroded by the fear of the unknown and the anxiety of powerlessness, placed his last hope on Melyusina.

Anticipation and fear mixed together, ravaging his heart and spirit that had been hit too many times in complex proportions.

Then, under the gaze of Itsuka Shido, Melusina opened her red lips and uttered calm words along with white hot air.

"You look terrible, Shidou. Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"!!!"

The uneasiness in my heart was gradually soothed, just like the golden sunlight gradually melting the snow, bringing a touch of warmth to the earth in this cold.

A smile appeared on Shido Gokawa's face, but as he smiled, he felt like crying again.

I feel like it would be nice to go up and give him a hug at this time... But Melyuchina doesn't want to take the initiative to hug anyone other than the Master, especially a man.

After some hesitation, Melusina raised her hand and touched Shido Gokawa's head.

"Are you feeling uneasy? Are you feeling aggrieved? Are you feeling confused? Well, you're fine now. I'm here for you."

When Melusina put her hand on Shido Gokawa's head, Shido Gokawa's eyes widened slightly and he fell into a daze. But when Melusina said those comforting words, Shido Gokawa's face gradually turned red with shyness.

"Sorry, Mr. Yano, I have something urgent to do here, so I'll have to save the udon for next time."

"Oh! There's nothing to be sorry about. Don't worry, I'll remember it for you."

The topic to be discussed next was obviously not suitable for ordinary people like Mr. Yano to know, so Melusina and Shido Gokawa found a deserted place.

"Lancelot, listen to me."

Facing perhaps the only person in the world he could confide his troubles to, Itsuka Shido could hardly suppress his uneasiness and said loudly: "When I woke up today, I found that no one in this city remembered me. Obviously, everything here is the same as yesterday, but Tohka, Kotori, Yoshino, and everyone else have all forgotten me."

"Kotori treated me like a stranger who broke into her house and kicked me out. When I went to school, Tonomachi, Origami, and other classmates didn't recognize me. Tohka, Yakuya, and Yui, who were also at school, all asked me who I was. I went to Yoshino and Nanashi, and they said they didn't know me. I called Miku, and she yelled, 'A man I don't know called me,' and then hung up on me..."

"What on earth is going on!"

It can be seen that Shido Gokawa has been tortured for too long, and his inner anxiety is like sewage blocked in a water pipe.

but……

"Even if you ask me this, I can't give you an answer..."

Melyuchina shook her head, then stroked her chin as if thinking.

"However, I did feel a force in the middle of the night last night that erased all my memories of you. It was truly a powerful force, and even I couldn't resist its influence."

"Varied……!"

Itsuka Shido couldn't help but gasp for breath and looked at Melyuchina in shock, "But, you now..."

"That's because I used a special method to back up my memories to prevent them from being manipulated. After part of my memory was deleted, the backup memory was immediately overwritten."

“Even though I don’t quite understand it, I still feel like it’s something really amazing…”

Lancelot, you are truly so versatile and reliable. It seems you are always so dependable no matter what situation you face...

"By the way..."

At this moment, Melyuchina seemed to have remembered something and asked Gokawa Shido, "What about Nia? As an angel with omniscience, even if her memory was erased, she might be able to use the [Whispering Stories] to recover some of her memories, right?"

After all, Honjo Nia had done the same thing before. When she first came to this world as an elf, she was also in a state of memory loss. However, she relied on the [Confessions] to recover the memories that were deleted by Mio's mother.

This is how Shido Itsuka answered Melyuchina's question.

"Eiya should be in the Elf Apartment right now, right? But I can't get in right now, and no one answers Erya's phone."

"...That old lady, could she have overslept again? No, I saw her finish her breakfast this morning... Could it be that she went back to her room to take a nap after eating?"

Melyuchina frowned slightly and complained.

This old lady is already old, and her lifestyle is so chaotic. Be careful that she will have a lot of diseases when she gets old...

Melyuchina was very unhappy because she wanted to go back to hibernation in such cold weather, and it would be best if she could sleep through the winter.

However, she didn't dare to do so. She was worried that if she slept, she would miss the team battle and all the elves would be wiped out by Mio's mother.

Melyuchina hated the cold. Although this level of cold couldn't harm her strong dragon body at all, she still hated it. It would remind every cell in her body of when she was a "Dragon Skeleton" before she became "Melyuchina"...

"Come to think of it, it's time to take out the kotatsu. A warm kotatsu can easily make you sleepy and lazy, but... huh?"

Melyuzina frowned, keenly aware of something.

"Could it be that Niya has already taken out the kotatsu? Is that why she can sleep so soundly at this hour and not even answer the phone?"

"Uh...it feels very likely."
