"Then, Izumi, what about the time of the territory war? You once said that in order to conduct a territorial war, the forces of good and evil spirits must be balanced. How can you go to war with that evil spirit as a partner?" Much
"Yurin, you said the macaroons were delicious, right?"
Izumi took the macaroon on the plate and put it in my mouth.
"If it's good, why stop eating it?"
"Just tell me if you want me to stop asking questions and switch the conversation!!" I screamed while chewing
"Alright, since you already know what I mean, so let's change the subject"
"Jawab my question!" My words are firm
Izumi just sighed.
"Whatever they hate me, but still, their hatred for me at least does not exceed their hatred for the spirits of other regions"
"Because, if a region is conquered by another region, the spirit in the conquered territory will become part of the spirit of the conquered territory and be tortured and exiled, or locked up so as not to rebel. Of course, they would not and would not want to be citizens of the territory that destroyed his residence and tortured him"
"So, the priority of all the spirits of this region is not to lose to the enemy territory. They'll get rid of their egos for a while in the middle of a war for themselves"
"Then, they also know that if I disappear in the middle of the war, no matter being eliminated by themselves or by the enemy, the possibility of losing the war is getting higher, even reaching 99%"
"For the enemy will do everything in its power to seize the 'crystals of heart' of the vanished leader"
"And if the 'Crystal heart' is captured by the enemy, then it is certain that the school territory belongs to the enemy, tantamount to defeat" explained Izumi
"I think they're all just stupid, brainless spirits. It turns out that they can also think a little logically, yes" I muttered
"No, I don't think they're that smart" Izumi said
"of course! I'd say they can 'little' think logically. If they're smart, they'd rather be your friend than the enemy"
"If I were an evil spirit that wanted to eliminate you, I would approach you and pretend to be good, then stab you in the back. That way, I can become the new leader and get rid of the opponent without getting hurt with less risk"
"...."
Izumi was silent
"Fortunately we have a 'bond', so you can't mess with me"
"I was wrong. You're not as good as I thought" Izumi muttered
"That's a parable if I'm an evil spirit!! I won't be like that because I'm not an evil spirit and have no one to hate!!" Shouted
"So, if you have a person you hate in the future, you'll do that?" Ask Izumi
"For you who are human can think like that, especially if you really become an evil spirit. Looks like you're gonna be a very, very cunning spirit"
"Do not make fun of me!!" I yelled annoyed
"Evoiding means right. You admit you're a sneaky guy"
"That's enough!!!"
"Haha! Your face is flushed!"
I started riding. My hand lightly floated to Izumi's head in full force and put on a cheerful smiling face.
Then Izumi dodged the blow just before my hand hit her.
"Eh?"
Since I put all my strength into hitting Izumi, I lost my balance as soon as she dodged and fell on Izumi.
"Surge. You're heavy" Izumi muttered
"Ah, I asked for ma---"
"Yo~ What are you two doing?"
Suddenly Kagusa appears outside the glass balcony door by attaching her body to the door like a lizard.
"Kagusa!!!!" I screamed in shock
I immediately moved away from Izumi and sat petrified with a red face in embarrassment.
"Waaah~ What have I just seen?~" Goda Kagusa
"Kagusa! Hurry back to your job!!" Izumi said firmly
"I'm done doing it~"
"Then the leader, even though your face is flat, but why are your ears red?~"
"You don't have a job, do you? The garden at the back of the castle has not been cleared. Quickly clean everything!" Izumi's Order
"Aduh~ Just say if you want to expel me so as not to disturb you guys"
"Just do it!"
"Good...."
*
"My strength has recovered, so now I'm going to take you back to earth" Izumi said
Izumi stretched out her hand and appeared a black portal vortex.
"Then, Yur---"
"Ririn!~"
Yui immediately interrupted Izumi's speech and stood in the middle between me and Izumi.
"Ayo~ We enter together, ya~"
"Ah, um.... Yeah..." Mumbles
"What's wrong with Yui?" I think confused
Yui immediately grabbed my left hand and continued like that until we entered the circle of the portal.
*
"Ugh.." - UH...."
After entering the portal, I woke up on my bed.
"By the way, where's Yui, huh?" Mumbles
Afterwards, Izumi came to see me in the room.
I just looked at him confused. And after that, Izumi held my hand.
"Come with me"
"Where?" Much
"Later you'll know for yourself"
Izumi immediately took me teleporting. As soon as I arrived, Izumi and I were already inside the forest, where Yui and I used to practice.
"Ririn~" Shouted Yui cheerfully
"Happy Birthday~ Although before is a tiring thing"
Yui handed me a gift box.
I was just petrified with my eyes fixed on the gift box before I took it.
"Thank you, Yui!~"
"Iya~ Hope you like my gift"
"In the future, I hope Ririn doesn't have any difficulties and can face all the obstacles. I wish Ririn all the best!"
"Thank you~"
I hugged my best friend.
Then, Izumi walked over to me.
Izumi stretched out her hand then appeared a purple colored light and fused into a bouquet of flowers. The flower is bright purple with elongated flower petals with slightly white edges. In the middle of the five petals there was also a crown of purple flowers rather pink that shone like stars.
"Wah~ The flowers are so beautiful!~" I said in amazement
Holding the bouquet, Izumi knelt down before me while thrusting the bouquet.
"Happy birthday. Because every time you see a flower you get excited, so I'm thinking of giving you a flower"
I also received a bouquet of flowers from Izumi.
"Thank you, Izumi! I like it so much!~"
I inhaled the scent of the flower. The smell is very special. The aroma is soft and does not sting, but also does not make you tired of inhaling it. Plus its appearance is quite unique.
"The fragrance of this flower is tasty~"
Izumi only smiled faintly in response to my words.
"And by the way, it seems like I have never seen this flower" I murmured
Izumi stood up and approached me.
"This flower is called Vinix. Vinix flowers do not grow on earth because they feed on a large amount of spirit power during infancy. Because of this, this flower only grows in the garden of the castle of good spirit leadership, and even then by a certain amount because caring for this flower is quite difficult when it has not bloomed"
"So, this flower does not exist in this world at all, in the territory of evil spirits also does not exist. Even among good spirits this flower is very rare and is used as a symbol for the leader of the spirit both because of the beauty, elegance, and also the great power contained in the flower"
"What's? Isn't this flower too precious to give me?!" I was shocked
Izumi held my hand and brought her lips closer to my tanagnku back.
"Anybody would protest if I gave him myself? Plus, not to anyone else, but I gave her to you who was tied to me"
Afterwards Izumi again raised her head and let go of my hand.
Although I didn't kiss the back of my hand, I could feel Izumi's air when I spoke earlier. I got a little misbehaved because of Izumi's attitude, and on the other hand, Yui just stared at us in silence.
