I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

This was the first request Xiao Mo made to Cheng Rang after returning home.

Cheng Rang and Isabella looked at each other, then looked at Xiao Mo who was standing in front of him with a firm expression, and asked with a smile: "Why do you suddenly want to go to school?"

Xiao Mo seemed to have already thought about how to answer Cheng Rang's question.

"Because I want to know more things that I don't know yet, and I want to make more friends... If I can learn knowledge, I can judge who can truly become my friends."

Not simply because of fear or wanting to use your own power to become friends with yourself.

"Brother and sister Isa are both very busy. They don't want to be taken care of like this all the time. It was also because Xiao Mo was not good at that market... If they hadn't run around, what happened next wouldn't have happened. Ah Ling She...maybe she won't die either."

Common sense in life, logical ability, language ability, and even communication with people.

"Xiao Mo, I want to be Xiao Mo myself and stop imitating anyone else!"

Holding back so many words in one breath that he had never considered before, Xiao Mo's cheeks were red and he was breathing slightly.

Finally, she looked at Cheng Rang in front of her with tentative eyes.

"...May I?"

Although Cheng Rang's eyes were steady, he fell into a long silence.

He remembered the possibility that Letitia had told him.

Xiao Mo is the perfect container to completely defeat Cheng Mo and absorb him. As long as Xiao Mo is turned into a cage to imprison Cheng Mo, and then both of them are erased, leaving nothing but memory, he can find [Go Home] 】 direction, and re-remember the name that I think about day and night.

Before this, Xiao Mo seemed to have never raised this concept - wanting to be herself and no longer imitate anyone else.

[What kind of results you want to get must require trade-offs, and there must be a price associated with the entanglement of cause and effect. I think you will clearly understand this later. 】

"I see."

Xiao Mo's eyes lit up and she clenched her fists excitedly, "Really!"

"Yes." Cheng Rang nodded, stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiao Mo's head vigorously, "Just be yourself, Xiao Mo."

"Don't forget, I said before that you are no longer my vassal, but a real person. You will have your own life, instead of becoming my shadow and being bound at my feet."

Isabella seemed to sense the change in Cheng Rang's state. He seemed to have made a difficult but firm decision at an unknown point in time, so she held his hand and tried to inject him with this method. With more confidence and strength, tell him with such actions: You are no longer alone.

"Um!"

…

After that, Cheng Rang found Leticia alone.

"The door is unlocked, come in."

Letitia, who heard the knock on the door, stared out the window at the foggy weather without looking back.

"I will not interfere with your choice."

Cheng Rang's footsteps stopped behind him.

"As long as you know what you're dealing with and the possible consequences."

"Um."

After receiving Cheng Rang's answer, Leticia finally turned around and said, "You're almost leaving again. Where are you going this time?"

"I don't know yet, but I think it would be great if I could find a good teacher for Xiao Mo."

"Really, even though I knew you would definitely choose the most difficult path, I still thought I might be able to persuade you to come back."

Cheng Rang grinned: "Sorry, I'm just a bit of a stickler."

"Oh, of course, otherwise you wouldn't become the Sword God." Leticia waved, and snacks and tea sets were floated over by the spell. "By the way, let me tell you in advance, Isabella does not plan to fight with you this time. You go together."

"Huh? She didn't tell me..."

"Maybe I didn't organize my language well. Isa told me that I wanted to improve my strength as soon as possible. I can't do that with you."

Cheng Rang smiled dryly and scratched his cheek: "Ahaha... Really."

"Because you can kill all enemies with one strike, and she can't confirm where her current limit is."

At the Flis Flea Market, she faced a warden-level enemy for the first time. Isabella even took advantage of him.

There was no way around her. There were always people much stronger than herself protecting her, which made it increasingly difficult to achieve the goals she had set from the beginning.

"She said she doesn't have as much time as you and I, so we have to speed up the process."

Cheng Rang nodded: "Okay, I can understand."

"I have generally left the cultivation methods of the Time Curse to you. Remember not to forget to train regularly. Since you have chosen the most difficult path, you must first temper yourself. The enemy you will face is not It can be solved with the knife in your hand."

"good."

Just like a master giving guidance to a disciple who is about to travel far away, Leticia told Cheng Rang in detail what he needed to pay attention to in the future.

Because she promised to help Cheng Rang until the end of everything.

Even the sky is dying——

"Thanks."

"Stop talking nonsense..." Leticia felt her mouth was dry after talking too much. She grabbed the cup and drank the tea in a big gulp, then jumped on the sofa again and pressed the remote control.

"My favorite show is about to start."

"Are you going to blast me away now?"

Leticia quickly turned her head and glanced at Cheng Rang, "Then it's okay if you want to watch it with me."

The next second the sofa next to her collapsed in. Leticia quickly retracted her feet and curled up into a ball.

"The sofa is so big and you have to sit next to me? It's too crowded."

"Why don't you go back and take a look before the opening hours of Fulis Market are over?"

"What?"

Cheng Rang looked at Leticia who turned to look at each other, "That's the guy who asked Isabella to bring the message and was still waiting for you."

"I've already gone back."

"When?!" Cheng Rang blinked his eyes in disbelief.

"If I ask you to take care of it, are you still jealous?"

"yes."

"Then... eh?! You, you, you... what are you talking about!" Leticia suddenly stuttered and rushed to the other side of the sofa, watching in surprise and saying what she expected. Cheng Rang answered outside.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Rang leaned on the sofa with his arms as if he was completely fine, and said slowly: "I don't know that guy, so I won't comment on it, but let me comment on the fact that he has waited for you for thousands of years. Just an opinion.”

"..."

"This at least shows that he really likes you, right? Whether he is a hopeless loli, or he is really fascinated by you. He can keep his love for a person or a thing for such a long time. Persistence and love, the original intention remains unchanged. No matter what, he is not qualified to be laughed at, and I even admire him."

Cheng Rang glanced at Leticia, who was huddled on the sofa and staring at the TV, but her attention was obviously not on it at all.

"If, I mean if, he didn't choose to wait all the time, but kept taking the initiative, would you agree to be with him?"

Leticia was slightly startled.

"For me at that time, I definitely would." This is the answer.

"Well~ I think so. After all, you were really cute when you were young, Siya, and you maintained a girlish enthusiasm for everything. It's normal to fall in love. Maybe if the relationship is better, you can keep going. Until now. After all, that guy hasn’t died of old age yet, right?”

"What exactly do you want to say?" Leticia frowned.

"Sometimes if you keep waiting, neither of you will be happy. Instead of letting that become a thousand-year regret, it is better to be like a girl and have a vigorous love. Even if you are rejected, you will not regret it because you have shown your heart. , isn’t that bad?”

"Have you finished speaking?" Leticia squeezed out the words through gritted teeth and raised her hand to point to the door, "When you're finished speaking, get out of here. Your wife and children are still waiting for you at home!"

"Thea, I know you can't lie, so are you really ready to wait like that guy?"

"What else can I do if I don't wait any longer!"

Leticia's sudden outburst made Cheng Rang a little dazed. She jumped up from the sofa and approached quickly. Cheng Rang subconsciously backed away until he hit the wall.

"Not to mention that there is no place for me in your heart now. I am just an old stubborn person. I don't want to express anything to anyone who can't understand my feelings. As long as Isabella is still here, we can't do it!"

"Now I am like a person running on the ground, chasing the sun on the other side. If I run, the sun is out of reach, but even if I wait, the sun will keep rising."

"Everything on the ground will wither under the baptism of time. Star cores will burn out, rock formations will collapse...even the sun may fall down one day."

"But I will not wither, I will take root on that dead planet, wait until the extinguished sun falls and smash me in." Leticia clenched her fists, she raised her head and kicked Cheng Rang hard His face was filled with water and his eyes were full of water.

At that time, I can use my hands to put the broken and extinguished sun back together bit by bit, and make it shine...heat again.

Leticia stretched out her hand to touch, but she seemed to be burned back by the heat of the sun that had not yet extinguished it.

"Just like that fool who has been waiting for thousands of years and is constantly moved by himself - he is willing!"

Leticia turned away, leaving only one side of her thin back illuminated by the flickering light of the TV. Her shoulders were shaking.

Ups and downs, repeated like a whisper.

"He is willing to..."

Chapter 58 An unforgettable departure

【Ding! 】

The system prompt woke Cheng Rang up. He opened his eyes from the bed and saw the sunlight shining through the thick clouds on the sheets, bringing a little warmth.

Cheng Rang casually opened the system interface.

[Next world: "Assassination Classroom", preparation time remaining: 4:59...4:58...]

[Introduction to the world]

Class E, Grade 3, Chuqiuqiu Middle School, has the most special teacher. They are called by various countries the most vicious super creatures in history. They claim to be the murderers who blew up 70% of the moon, and threatened to blow up the earth the next year. To serve as a teacher of Class E, Grade 3, Chuqiu Middle School.

The heads of state assigned the important task of assassination to Class E of the third grade of Chugigaoka Middle School and distributed special weapons to them. They hoped that the students could kill him within a year. The reward for success was 10 billion yen.

[The main mission will be unlocked after arriving in the world. 】

[It is detected that the player has a "partner". Do you want to go to the next world with your partner? 】

"no."

[Confirmation is complete, and the partner will stay in the main world waiting for the player to return. 】

[Player assigned identity: Teacher of Class E, Grade 3, Chuqiu Middle School]

[Player initial reward equipment: contract document, teacher qualification certificate, transfer notice, 550,000 yen in cash. 】

[There is no limit to player strength in this world, and there is no tendency to identify world destruction. 】

[All registered members of Chuqiuqiu Middle School will be forced to be marked as friendly forces and enjoy the protection effect of being unable to be harmed by any players. 】

…

Cheng Rang rubbed his brows after closing the system screen. Other than being a little strange as to why the system assigned an identity and reward equipment to myself for the first time, I don’t have any other opinions.

According to the system, Chuqiu Middle School is the leading school in the country, with the best educational resources and teachers.

It completely met his need to bring Xiao Mo over to be a student, and Cheng Rang even once wondered whether the system had been eavesdropping on his words.

But it doesn't matter even if it's eavesdropping. The system is just a system anyway, cold and emotionless, and Cheng Rang doesn't expect the system to understand anything.

——Time goes back to last night, Leticia’s house.

"If I express my feelings to you now, will you agree to it?"

"No." Cheng Rang gave his answer without hesitation, "As long as Isabella is still here, I will not accept the love expressed to me by other women."

Leticia seemed to be infected by Cheng Rang's calmness, and her expression relaxed.

"So, I already knew this, so what's the point of saying it?"

"Maybe you can get me to change my attitude?"

"I never thought about anything like that, this is different."

"It's different? What's different?"

"Because I never said that what I want to express to you is [love]."

The expression on Cheng Rang's face froze, as if he felt that he heard wrongly, and he quickly turned his ears and asked, "What did you say?"
