Kasumi had just returned after being out for a long time, presumably to collect further information while buying ingredients.

She finished the steaming lunch at a speed that was slightly beyond Hua Yi's expectations. Although she had not yet tasted the food, its appearance and aroma were enough to prove the deliciousness of this lunch.

"I can't tell, but your cooking skills are pretty good."

Hearing the ferryman's praise, the corners of Xia's mouth curled up slightly, and then quickly recovered.

In front of this guy who always teases her heartstrings with evil intentions, if she is not in the process of performing tasks, Xia has some habits of showing off. After all

, if the ferryman sees that he is still cold-faced and unmoved, he will probably continue to say some ill-intentioned words.

"Ninjas need to master various skills as much as possible, and cooking is a basic life skill, and I have done some research on it."

After a little explanation, Xia opened her mouth, hoping to tell the ferryman not to just chat, as the food would be cold.

However, considering that if she really spoke like this, it would be like a wife telling her husband, so Xia finally stopped. Talk.

This is not because she is overly worried.

Based on the way the ferryman has behaved so far, Xia has reason to believe that the other party will notice this sense of déjà vu.

"……"

"Then I won't be polite."

Hua Yi lowered his head and tasted the lunch carefully.

The fish and shrimp fried in batter can be collectively called tempura. There are also lettuce, soft tofu, and miso soup.

It is rich in both taste and nutrition.

It is no longer We need to continue to use verbal praise. For food producers, eating attentively is a more direct compliment.

This very Eastern style of cuisine is actually not in line with Kasumi's identity.

Although Kasumi is a ninja Dress up, but according to the information Hua Yi got, Xia has been living in the Tianming Headquarters and has never been to the Far East before.

Neither the ninja clothes nor the cuisine with the characteristics of the Far East are in line with the Tianming Headquarters. Characteristics.

Hua Yi did not remember that there were ninjas in the Tianming organization, nor did he remember that Tianming would teach cooking skills.

The real origin of Xia’s skills should not be what she remembered.

In fact, in Hua Yi’s eyes, this A girl who seems to be a soft-spoken girl is actually quite easy to get along with.

"Since Raiden Mei will appear in the suburbs at night, just in case, I will stay there before dusk. For dinner, I can only have rice balls."

When Hua Yi finished lunch, Xia took out the rice balls that were made together with the food on the table.

After a brief hesitation, considering that the ferryman's status was extraordinary and he might be well-dressed and well-fed on weekdays, Xia added one sentence

"If it doesn't suit your taste……"

Even though so far, the other party is neither disgusted by the not so good living conditions here nor the taste of the table he made, but the lunch using very common ingredients is boring, and Kasumi is still like this Opened his mouth

"You can also go to a nearby restaurant to eat in the evening, just be careful."

Hua Yi looked at the girl in front of him who had been greatly influenced by him during the more than ten hours of getting along with her.

"I feel like you have a big misunderstanding. In fact, I am quite strong. But - is this concern?"

"No, I just don’t want my contact person to be suddenly kidnapped by others, causing the mission to fail."

Xia Zai is arrogant.

This arrogant look is really cute.

Compared to Fu Hua, it is much easier to guess the inner emotions hidden under Xia's seemingly serious face.

"……"

Perhaps it was Hua Yi's smiling gaze that made Xia a little unable to resist. She quickly put away the tableware on the wooden table.

"If I haven't come back by midnight, you have to stay vigilant. If there is still no trace of me after dawn, you should leave Yae Town directly and return to Tianming Headquarters to report the news of the mission failure."

Although her mind has become restless because of Hua Yi, in terms of mind, Xia still seems to be quick-thinking.

"Yesterday you and I appeared together in the shopping street. Normally, even if you are a rare male, it would not cause too much trouble. But if I fail in tonight's operation, the City Lord's Mansion should investigate, and you will be exposed easily."

"OK, I promise you."

Hua Yi agreed simply.

After all, Hua Yi never planned to wait for news in the house. As long as he stayed with Xia to ensure her safety, no matter what pessimistic assumptions the girl said, it would be the same.

Facts will prove what Xia wants. too much

"……Um."

Xia nodded and turned back to her room.

She checked the weapons and equipment and made final preparations before the battle.

Even if the tentative target is only a young Leiden Meiyi, even if the opponent is wanted by the city lord's mansion, Kasumi did not underestimate his condition.

If the rumors in the market were true, the Lord of Yunchen City in Yae Town had really lived for hundreds of years. Such a person should be extremely powerful. However, Raiden Meiyi was able to escape the capture of the Lord's Mansion. We can no longer look down on the other party because of his age.

And even if he racked his brains, tried every means, used force or strategy to obtain the [Hell Realm] curse seal from Raiden Meiyi, once the city lord's palace knew about it, he would probably be attacked by the other party. Wanted at the same level or even higher.

It is really an extremely difficult task.

If the other five curse seals are also held by similarly difficult beings, can I really complete the task?

Maybe not.

But, it’s okay So hesitant.

It is the fate of a ninja to die during the mission.

Xia lowered his eyes and silently wiped the weapon in his hand.

In the corridor, Hua Yi shook his head.

He could probably guess what Xia was thinking.

Compared to Praising the Destiny Organization for its terrifying control over people's hearts, Xia's current situation is actually more inclined to move forward on the only life path that Yu knows.

Xia has no choice, her memory only gives one way.

What Hua Yi has to do is not immediately Tell Xia that this is just a world bubble, just a city. The real destiny organization is destroying the world, and he is the contemporary archbishop of destiny. That guy Otto has abdicated.

This information will not make Xia better. The change of direction will actually cause her to have self-doubt.

Doubt about the meaning of her own existence.

Now, what Hua Yi has to do is to accompany her to collect the curse seals, complete the six heretical methods, and then give her another path.
