On the side, Yazaki Yu nervously watched Zhu Haomiao, his whole body involuntarily tense and rigid. After realizing how terrifying the other person was, he could no longer face him with a normal heart. Seemingly sensing Yazaki Yu’s involuntary trembling, Zhu Haomiao glanced at him and tilted his head curiously. "Yazaki-kun, why are you shaking?" Before Yazaki Yu could answer, Zhu Haomiao quickly realized: "Did Heavenly Light say something to you?" Seeing Yazaki Yu’s instantly frozen nervous expression, Zhu Haomiao immediately knew the answer and pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration. "Don’t listen to Heavenly Light’s nonsense. I’m a kind person, easygoing and easy to get along with." Staring at Yazaki Yu’s still stiff awkward laugh, Zhu Haomiao blinked in disbelief at Amaterasu, whispering. "You didn’t tell him about the time I ate you, did you?!!" You have that kind of relationship?!! Before Amaterasu could speak, Zhu Haomiao’s expression became serious as he looked at Yazaki Yu, whose eyes were as wide as saucers, and explained quite sincerely. "Don’t listen to her slander. I only ate her once on a symbolic level. I didn’t even touch her hand. I’m a really good person, believe me." Watching Zhu Haomiao’s earnest whispering, Yazaki Yu twitched an awkward smile and nodded. "You really don’t need to explain..." At your level, I wouldn’t dare ask even if I wanted to, so don’t tell me... I don’t want to know! Afraid he might accidentally overhear something he shouldn’t and then inexplicably drop dead from stepping into the room with the left foot first, Yazaki Yu shrank his neck and stood up, wanting to leave this place of trouble. However, seeing that Yazaki Yu still didn’t believe him, Zhu Haomiao grabbed him and looked sadly at the beautiful girl beside him. "Heavenly Light, say something. Explain to him that I didn’t physically eat you!" Like a volcano suppressed to the extreme, the expressionless Amaterasu gave Zhu Haomiao a cold glance, squeezing out a sentence through her teeth. "If you babble another word, only one of us will walk out of this school alive today." The two boys displayed identical looks of fear, Zhu Haomiao blinked, pulling Yazaki Yu into the hallway, whispering to explain. "Yazaki-kun, you’re from a family of Onmyoji, you should know consuming on a divine level is different from physical consumption... The former doesn’t go through the mouth and stomach, so Heavenly Light and I have a pure relationship, not the cannibal you’re imagining. I’m not Hannibal..." "Haha, I know... huh??!! Wait a minute!" At first awkwardly agreeing, then abruptly realizing something was off, Yazaki Yu widened his eyes, staring blankly at Zhu Haomiao. "No... do you mean the eating you mentioned is the physical kind?!" Only now realizing his misunderstanding, but in the next second, Yazaki Yu came to and felt an intense cold spreading from the deepest part of his bones. This thing had eaten a [God]?! Looking at the handsome young man in front of him, Yazaki Yu instinctively took two steps back, his body trembling uncontrollably. In a daze, he felt that standing before him wasn’t a [human] but an indescribable twisted monster, whose greedy and ravenous appetite might even target gods! Despite there being no supernatural pressure, Yazaki Yu felt suffocated, his entire body stiffening into stone. On the other side, seeing Yazaki Yu’s exaggerated reaction, Zhu Haomiao immediately realized something and blinked awkwardly. "Did I inadvertently confess to something?" At this moment, Amaterasu walked past them expressionlessly, leaving behind a faint scent. "Uh... Anyway, just remember, I’m a good person. Don’t let my reputation be harmed, got it?" Pattering Yazaki Yu’s shoulder, Zhu Haomiao earnestly advised once before quickly chasing after Amaterasu. "Heavenly Light, didn’t your brother and sister come with you? I kind of miss them... glug~" "Don’t swallow when mentioning them!" "Oh, sorry, I just couldn’t help it when I thought of them." Watching the backs of the two divine beings fade away, Yazaki Yu vaguely heard part of their conversation, feeling that the once warm corridor now seemed like an ice cellar, freezing him to the bone. Is the world of the divine all about ’eating each other’ ? Or is it really as Zhu Haomiao said, their so-called ’eating’ is different from what mortals understand? A small white hand clapped on his shoulder, startling Yazaki Yu, almost causing him to fall. "What’s wrong with you?" Turning around, he saw Abe Waka’s curious gaze, and Yazaki Yu’s eyes welled up with tears. "Waka, that [Servant] of yours is terrifying!" "Huh? What did he do again?" With a pause, afraid of saying something inappropriate and dragging Abe Waka down with him, but considering their close relationship with the [Servant], Yazaki Yu, after a mental struggle, still decided to reveal a little information. "He... ate my [Servant]." "Hah? He and Heaven... uh, that one, have that kind of relationship?!" Seeing Abe Waka clearly misunderstanding, Yazaki Yu quickly added. "Not the type of eating you’re thinking, but physical eating!" Watching Yazaki Yu mimic a ferocious chewing motion, Abe Waka’s mouth slowly dropped open, staring blankly at him. "Eating? Cannibalism?" Yazaki Yu nodded with lingering fear, warily looking around. On the other side, Abe Waka recalled Zhu Haomiao’s mention of their ’heart and soul’ relationship and his actions of tearing and pulling. In a trance, she seemed to see what followed—a horrific young man, hands bloodied, laughing madly as he stuffed a scorching, beating heart into his mouth, chewing and swallowing it, crimson blood trailing down from his mouth, covering a large part of his body. Shivering all over, Abe Waka shook her body, forcing herself to calm down. "Wait, something’s not right. What do you mean he ate? Amaterasu is clearly still alive!" This was also the reason for Abe Waka’s instinctive misunderstanding. There’s a perfectly fine living person standing in front of you, yet you say she was eaten by someone else, the only interpretation is that kind of ’eating’. "Perhaps the ’eating’ between divine beings is different from our understanding, or they can revive..." After a long silence, Abe Waka inexplicably found the latter explanation more plausible. Then, after exchanging complicated glances with Yazaki Yu, the two childhood friends saw deep worry in each other’s eyes, as well as anxiety about their future.
