It Became a Time-Stop Slit-Eye chapter 29

29. Today must be a crisis because of ■■!

29. Today must be a crisis because of ■■!

“…… Ask?”

As soon as I heard that, Eris glared at me with a frown on her face.

After learning the art of contemplation, I interpreted it as, “Did you give yourself a present with this in mind?”

It’s actually true, but I didn’t know that if I admitted it, our strong friendship might be cracked, so I wrapped up my feelings a little and talked about it.

“Ahahahaha, the potion I gave you as a gift the other day. It was made with a lot of hard work.”

“…… Any amount of money-“

“No, no. Don’t say that. It is also something that is difficult to obtain with money, and in the first place, friends do not exchange money.”

“… ….”

“So instead, a very small request.”

“Huh, please.”

She was the first one who snorted and glared at me, but as she gently met her gaze, she changed her mind, and soon she said with a new look.

“When, where, and what should I do?”

He’s a very disingenuous guy.

***

Turbuk─Turbug─

A twilight street with a burning red sunset. After school, on the way home.

Recalling the conversation we had earlier and her sinister face, Eris put on a sullen expression.

─Will you do me one favor?

‘…… There must be an ulterior motive.’

The same goes for the situation in which he gave the gift, and the unique atmosphere of that guy makes him feel like he’s committing something.

At a glance, it looks sinister.

Not only does he look like that, but he’s actually a sly guy.

Eris was also half-assured that it would never be a very small favor.

However, I couldn’t guess what the insidious guy’s request was.

If it’s something heinous, he can forcefully go through with it.

I don’t think you need to put so much effort into a trivial request…….

“…… What, is it?”

Eris broke her long thoughts.

No matter what the request was, I grabbed the clue to save my parents.

As long as I didn’t die from that request, as long as the result was given properly, that’s it.

I was worried about Shiki Ichimaru’s sly appearance and inner thoughts, but it was definitely a gift.

It is a precious opportunity that will change the destiny of herself and her family, and make her go back to the old days.

‘It’s a very small request, so I’ll have to listen carefully.’

I don’t think it’ll be an easy request, but well, it will work out somehow.

Eris laughed involuntarily and shook her head.

With the movement of her head, her golden hair, bathed in the light of her sunset, swayed and swayed.

“Well, it will work somehow.”

Eris Betelgeuse smiled at the red sunset in the sky.

***

Since then, the sunset has been burning red and rising again dozens of times.

As if using his life as fuel, Kenichi held a sword in his hand and swung it every night.

Whether that opponent became Sento’s sorcery, Shiki’s dagger, or a monster in the city.

I swung my sword vigorously and countless times, concentrating only on surviving.

The sword, which I had never held a month ago, became more familiar than a pencil or ballpoint pen.

It was the same even though it was an upcoming midterm exam.

Is this just the result of running so madly?

Flame—!

A seed of magical power was planted in his heart.

Even though it was a result he couldn’t see with his own eyes, Kenichi was convinced of it.

The sense of exhilaration in my whole body and the burning sensation in my heart proved that there was magic there.

Again, I felt that way.

“Oh, congratulations. Kenichi. You finally look like you’re begging for some food as a vanguard.”

Because this damn guy said that too.

Looking at Ichimaru Shiki’s smirking face, Kenichi raised the corners of his mouth in the same way.

It’s impossible to light flames on top of a sword or kick the air like the guy in front of you.

Without the energy to be offended, I was just proud of the results I had achieved by running like crazy for the past month.

“The foundation is finally laid.”

“…… Okay.”

As you said, you have the minimum amount of energy to survive as a single warrior.

Kitagawa Kenichi covered the corners of his mouth where a slutty smile bloomed and let out a laugh.

‘It’ll be a little less fitting now.’

Shiki is gradually increasing the tempo, so it seemed like she would continue to be beaten until her rough skills matched, but isn’t it okay with monsters?

Suddenly—!

‘…… Maybe it doesn’t fit at all!’

Kenichi was filled with joy as he watched himself cut off the head of a monster without having to go through a few workshops, which was clearly different from before.

Now all the monsters in the city are no match.

After seeing the true face of Ichimaru Shiki, Kenichi’s face, which had been depressed all along, brightened.

I gained confidence in my life.

In such a state of fullness, the day of the full moon has arrived.

***

Wheeying—!

In the evening, the wind blew hard.

It hasn’t rained yet, but dark clouds are gathering little by little.

Without time to see the full moon or sunset, the sky is dyed gray.

The flesh of darkness filled up from the sky.

“Wow, look at the weather.”

As expected, it was a terrible sky.

“It looks like it will rain soon?”

“Let’s go home quickly.”

“You sang well today too!”

“Hey, Sawako. Let’s go home before it rains.”

Sawako Tachibana looked up at the sky blankly for a moment, then turned her head at the voice of her friends.

They were beckoning and calling me.

With an untainted, clean smile.

Fortunately, the weather was bad, so it seemed that they all intended to go home early.

Yes, it was very fortunate.

Sawako Tachibana approached them with a bright smile on her face.

“Yes, I am going.”

Thanks to the eclipse of the sky and the sun, the shimmering shadows on the road disappeared.

***

It got dark quickly because of the dark clouds.

Since then, time has flowed again and the night has grown deeper, and midnight has arrived.

In the middle of a dark city where not even the moonlight shines, a spiritual vein where all spirits pass by.

In another name, Karakura High School’s playground.

“…… So why did you call them?”

Eris Betelgeuse stood crookedly on the school grounds with a sullen expression on her face.

It was to fulfill a very small request.

She glanced at Sento and Kenichi, who were standing side by side with her, and snorted.

“What, the four of us tie one leg at a time, and let’s run at least in a triangle?”

“Oh, that’s completely unexpected, but I think it would be really fun to try.”

“…… Okay, just like you said, I came here with all the clothes, but what the hell is this for?”

The outfit of Eris Betelgeuse, the star mage who said that, was definitely different from before.

The robes and wands he hadn’t worn even when he fought me before—the staff and even the cone-shaped hat.

Anyone could see that he looked like a wizard.

In the eyes of ordinary people, she would have looked more like a crazy high school girl wearing a wizard cosplay on a gloomy night than a real wizard.

Eris was still using stealth magic, perhaps because the public eye was burdensome.

She hurriedly answered with a sullen expression, probably because of the feeling that her magical energy was disappearing in real time.

“What, can you give me a magic demonstration?”

“Oh, Mr. Eris. You look sharp today. Certainly, you can use magic in front of the two of them.”

“…… Is that really all it takes?”

“It’s not exactly that, but it’s a little bit like that.”

After finishing the conversation like that, I turned my gaze to Kenichi.

Because he didn’t even hear the exact reason, he had a puzzled expression as to why he had been called out.

“…… Shiki, you didn’t practice today and you didn’t even beat the monster, are you really okay?”

“Ah, was it that way?”

It seems that he was rather anxious because I didn’t do anything today.

Then it must be my duty to quickly resolve that uneasy feeling.

Looking at Kenichi with a friendly smile, I gave him one last piece of advice as his teacher.

“Kenichi, I told you the other day. The minimum foundation has been laid.”

“…… Uh, it was.”

“Ummm, I’m usually a student with a lot to teach.”

“… ….”

“But you can do it, so if you do your best, you can do anything.”

At that, Kenichi’s face contorted.

At first I thought he was crying because he was moved, but he put on a look of genuine concern.

“…… What the hell are you going to do?”

Hmm, it seems that the mutual trust has faded very much, but the need to correct it again appeared.

I wanted to do it right away, but I decided to postpone it until later and explain why we were here.

“Do you remember what I told you before? The end of mankind is coming soon.”

“…… What?”

“A meteorite impact is a typical example. They give reasons like climate change or nuclear war, but unfortunately not. It may happen in a future I don’t know about, but at least right now I’m not in jeopardy for that reason.”

In short,

“Today must be a crisis because of youkai!”

As I said this while clapping my hands with a smile on my face, the sky seemed to feel better as well, and soon the dark clouds cleared.

Moonlight seeped through the cracks in the black sea of clouds, and red light fell on the earth.

Looking at the huge red full moon floating in the middle of the sky, they put on a dazed expression for a moment.

I explained the situation with a friendly smile.

“It’s a night of 100 ghosts.”

In a certain world, it was a day when a city faced its end.
