EP one thousand three hundred and forty-three. The mask that gets in the way
Born as an orphan, he has experienced loneliness and isolation throughout his entire life.
After all the hard work, he finally had a close family member who was willing to accompany him on this journey. From Shi Xiaolei's point of view, how could he not cherish it?
Whether it was 2b and Kangna who came to their side first, or Bayonetta, Higanbana, Ramiris, and Semi who were summoned later, including hundreds of ship girls who could hardly take care of them. , Shi Xiaolei attaches the same importance to them, and is eager to devote everything he can to them.
Shi Xiaolei also had the same attitude towards Sharna and Athena Asamong who had just arrived.
No, it should be said that considering that they had just arrived and had not yet adapted to the situation at home, Shi Xiaolei took care of them a little more carefully.
"Athena, you prefer Chinese food, right?" Shi Xiaolei walked over from the kitchen carrying two plates and placed one of them on the table closer to Asamiya Athena. Shi Xiaolei laughed. recommended to her: "Try this, I made it specially for you."
"Rice cake?" After seeing what was on the plate, Asamiya Athena's eyes flashed with surprise.
According to the setting, Asamiya Athena likes snacks made from glutinous rice such as rice cakes and daifuku. The soft and glutinous texture combined with the sweet taste is her favorite.
And her junior brother, the Shikiken Sect's favorite meat bun, is actually not in line with Asamiya Athena's own preferences.
Vaguely remembering this, Shi Xiaolei specially cooked a dish for Asamiya Athena, using osmanthus pickled by bees and a little ginger sugar, and fried her a plate of smooth and sweet rice cakes.
When a bowl of water is about to be leveled, Shi Xiaolei will not just remember to take care of Asamiya Athena and then forget about Sharna.
"Sharna, this is yours." A plate of tomato-braised beef brisket that was suitable for both meat and vegetables was delivered to Sharna. Shi Xiaolei then raised his finger and pointed to the other plates on the table: "Don't be restrained. Whichever one do you want to eat?" Take whatever you want.”
"..." Looking at the tempting aroma of food in front of her, Sharna hesitated for a moment before saying thank you.
Seeing this reaction, Shi Xiaolei thought that the dishes in front of her were not to her taste. Feeling a little worried, she quickly asked: "Well, is there anything I should avoid?"
Feeling Shi Xiaolei's mood, Sharna waved her hand quickly: "No, no, I can eat anything."
"Then what are you..."
He looked down at Sharna with some confusion, his eyes falling on her mask. The next second, Shi Xiaolei reacted suddenly and finally guessed why Sharna didn't pick up the tableware.
There is no other reason than that you have to take off your mask before eating. According to the rules passed down by the Saints, female Saints can only take off their masks when they are alone. At other times, especially when men are present, they must You are not allowed to take off your mask so that others can see your face.
Why is there such a ban?
From the perspective of plot design, the reason why this rule came into being is probably because of the character of the magic bell.
According to the idea of the creator Masami Kurumada, he did not design the five Xiaoqiang as loyal followers of Athena from the beginning, but in order to create more vivid personal characteristics, he assigned each of them a "must" Reasons to become a Saint. For example, in the case of Star Lost, the reason Kurumada Masami arranged for him was 'to find his biological sister Star Flower and reunite with her'.
In order to highlight Hoshimi's identity as the protagonist and create a legitimate reason for him to be "a little stronger than others", Masami Kurumada arranged another hidden line, which was to draw the appearance of the magic bell to match Hoshimi's. Sister Xinghua is exactly the same, and specially made a rule for female saints that they must wear masks at all times.
In this way...
The master who gets along day and night is exactly the same as the image left in my sister's memory. Unfortunately, because the master was always wearing a mask, he could not directly confirm his suspicions. From Xingchu's point of view, she would definitely train more carefully, and then...or rely on her superior strength to subdue the master in turn, and peel off her mask to distinguish the real from the fake. Or you can gain the master's favor through your outstanding performance, and then ask her for the truth of the matter while she is in a good mood.
The plot of Magic Ling teaching Star Lost is at the beginning of the whole story. Perhaps it is because the creation has just begun and the considerations are not comprehensive yet, so Masami Kurumada came up with the setting that "female saints must wear masks at all times." You know, if you look at this rule from another angle, it will actually give people the impression of "differential treatment". It is easy for people who like boxing to take advantage of it and attract unnecessary criticism.
That's a bit far gone.
Whether it is designed to guide the plot, or because "Athena is a virgin, so female saints must remain pure", in short, the setting that female saints have to always wear masks has been changed. for established facts.
I didn’t feel that way when I was reading the comics, but now...
Looking at Sharna, Shi Xiaolei scratched his head in embarrassment: "Look at my memory. I'll just avoid it for a while."
"No, no, no, Lord Locke, I..." Feeling that it was rude to ask Shi Xiaolei to avoid leaving, Sharna quickly stood up and refused in a panic.
"Sit down." Before she finished, Shi Xiaolei raised his hand and pressed her shoulder: "I told you to be more casual. This is home, there is no need to be cautious. Don't always remember those rules and regulations, relax a little."
Sarna was not the only one sitting at the table, there were also Athena Asamiya and several other expelling girls.
Looking at the interaction between Shi Xiaolei and Sharna, everyone was a little confused and couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Commander, Sister Sharna, what are you talking about?" O'Bannon asked curiously, poking a piece of potato on the fork.
Children can't hide their thoughts, and they always ask directly if they have any questions.
"Nothing." Feeling that there was no need to hide, Shi Xiaolei explained honestly: "Not taking off her mask in front of the opposite sex is one of the iron rules that female Saints need to abide by. In other words, if I stay here all the time, she can't take off her mask to eat, do you understand?"
"Eh? There is such a rule?" Asamiya Athena widened her eyes and shook her head incomprehensiblely: "Who made this? Isn't this embarrassing..."
If it were someone else, Shaina would inevitably have some resistance in her heart.
But now, this is exactly what Asamiya Athena said.
"......." Not knowing how to respond, Shaina stood there awkwardly, and the little face hidden under the mask also showed a helpless and tangled expression.
