In winter, the weather is cold and freezing.
No matter how hard Minos was, the leaves still did not agree to the so-called date.
But when sleeping, they still lie together.
Minos soon fell asleep.
The leaves are still thinking.
There are too many questions, you need to think about it.
But he could not find the answer.
...
The future, the unknown future, is full of mist.
Neither Ye Zi nor anyone else could see the future.
But some people can see their goals and move forward unswervingly.
Some people are lost in the fog.
No direction
The future is lost.
Even, forget the past.
...
Since the awakening ability, Ye Zi hasn't dreamed for a long time.
Had a dream after a long absence.
Dream of the past life, dream of this life.
Dreaming of myself as a child, dreaming of grandma of the dean.
Past and present, there is a grandma as the dean.
Dreamed of "brothers and sisters", dreamed of friends, dreamed of girls with deep bonds.
But dreams are dreams after all.
After opening my eyes, everything is gone.
In other words, everything after opening your eyes is your dream?
Where is the dream?
Where is reality?
After waking up, the leaves continue to think about life.
...
Christmas is coming soon.
The sky was gray, it soon started to snow, and it turned white again...
that's not important.
Ye Zi did not agree to play with Minos, but went out to find Pecola.
He and Lily Bell in the garden took turns helping Pecora.
Or bring Pecora home for dinner, or take it to a restaurant, at least buy her a lunch box or something.
Pecola doesn't rely on them.
She has a job herself.
Although it is the kind of work that has no guarantees and earns little money.
If you want to say, although there is a little bit less, there is no problem eating a full meal.
The problem is: Pecola is unlucky.
Working hard to make some money will always be lost due to reasons of this kind, and eventually lead to not having enough food.
The most eaten is the bread, occasionally ramen or something.
Only when the leaves and garden lily bells help, is the time to eat well and full.
However, no matter how hard life is, her pure heart and her kind heart still remain unchanged.
I really don't forget my original intention.
...
Pecola was invited back home.
Minos welcomes her here, but he doesn't want Ye Zi to bring her back.
The mood in this regard is a bit complicated.
Today there is more resentment.
It’s a good Christmas. Not only are there no two people going out to play, they can’t even eat together.
The words come back again.
A devil, actually wants to have Christmas?
It's really magical.
...
As always, Pecola ate and drank a cup of tea, and then left.
She had to go back to the park and rest in a room made of cardboard boxes.
There is no way.
Ye Zi could rent a house.
But they were fed and sheltered, making it like a shelter.
So it didn't do that.
Send Pecola away and return to the room.
At a glance, Minos was pouting, as if very upset.
Reluctantly shook his head.
Go to the desk and take out the packed small box from the drawer.
"Give you a present."
"……what?"
"It's just a crystal ball."
The kind used for viewing.
It is snow fluttering, a Christmas tree, a Santa Claus, and a small house.
Very ordinary scene.
But Minos was very happy and received a gift from Leaf for the first time.
However, after being happy, he was a little upset.
"bad!"
"what happened?"
"I forgot to prepare a gift."
Because of Ye Zi's refusal, the mood was rather depressed, and no one reminded him, so he forgot about it.
Leaf didn't care.
"If you don't have it, there won't be it. Anyway, I don't have anything to want."
What he wants, Minos can't give.
Take the clothes and go to the bathroom.
"I will take a shower first."
"……Ok."
Minos nodded.
Then fall into thinking.
...
The temperature is very low.
But one is a capable person and the other is a demon, and they are not affected much.
However, when sleeping, he was still covered with a thick blanket.
Minos held the leaf.
"Well, let me give you a gift too."
"No."
"...Why?"
Minos felt wronged again.
The leaves curled their lips.
"I don't read so many novels, animations, and comics for nothing. I just said that I wanted to give me gifts when I lay here. Apart from kiss, that is...I don't want it anyway."
"..."
Minos really planned it this way.
But the leaf actually...
"Do you hate me that much?"
"If I hate you, I won't live with you until now, I would have moved out long ago."
"Then why?"
"someone in my heart."
"Pecola?"
"Don't think, don't guess."
Leaf's appreciation for Pecola is not so much like it.
I still admire.
It has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women.
Minos is still asking.
"Who is that? Lily Ling? Yes, you are all humans, of course you will like each other."
"Lily Ling is a friend."
"Who the hell is it?"
"..."
Leaf did not speak.
He just broke free of Minos' embrace and turned to look at the ceiling.
There was a long silence.
"Then tell you something about me."
A long story.
But it's not exciting.
Is boring.
It was so boring that Ye Zi felt that his life might not have any meaning.
But no way.
This is his life.
Whether it's good or bad, boring or full of passion, this kind of life has been shaped and there is no way to start again.
...
Only after you really understand and see through a person will you know whether you like or hate it.
Minos likes it.
For the first time in thousands of years, he cared so much about a person of the opposite sex, and it was a human being.
A human being summoned by mistake.
At first it was because of guilt and wanted to compensate, and then it was because of habit.
Now, because of love.
And the leaves of wanting to own a home, it seems that until now, they have not been able to truly own a home.
Cross when you have a little hope, and cross when you have a little hope.
The leaves are a little tired.
...
In any case, in the end, it was not able to reach a negative distance.
Minos is very lost.
And Ye Zi was doing his own thing seriously again.
Christmas is over, next...
new Year?
Not really.
It seems that it hasn't passed for years, and the seasons change rapidly.
From winter to autumn soon.
Ye Zi didn't do other things, and the time was basically spent on cultivation.
Take another small step.
But there is still a long way to go before the goal is reached.
It was a little too slow after all to explore it alone.
Temporarily stop practicing.
Go straight upstairs, ready to ask Garden Lily Bell, and ask Cthulhu to collect debts, and ask her to send a library.
After all, it is a book from the Demon Realm. If you read a little more, you might find a breakthrough opportunity.
After going upstairs and entering the door, I realized that there were guests here.
Two demons.
A little one who looks ugly and cute;
There is another human girl who looks normal, but she is definitely a demon.
Here……
Is it the den of the devil?
