Raise a magical girl and then regret it for the rest of your life? !

Chapter 61

So.

Since that incident, Youyu and Wuyue walked on the way home for the first time.

"..."

However, there was still no communication, everyone remained silent and didn't speak.

It was roughly the same as before.

But...

When he glanced at Wuyue who was pushing a bicycle next to him, Youyu found out.

Now, her eyes were a little evasive when she looked at him, but much less than before.

And... she looked like she had something to say.

But now, she couldn't say it.

"...Sure enough, I have to speak up."

It was no use just wasting time like this, so Youyu decided not to wait any longer and took the initiative to speak up:

"Wu Yue? Do you have something to say to me? I can tell, you don't have to be shy, just say it."

"..."

"Actually... it's nothing."

After hearing what Youyu said, Wu Yue was stunned for a moment, then said awkwardly:

"It's just... I feel like we've had less time to go home together."

"Not long ago, we went home together, but recently, because of our own affairs, it's hard for us to have such time together. It's time..."

"..."

After hearing Wu Yue's words, You Yu was silent for a while, and then said:

"You are right... We all have our own things to do recently. It is difficult to go back to the time before..."

"But it is not impossible."

After saying this, You Yu turned his head and looked at Wu Yue. From the bottom of his heart, with sincere apology, he said:

"I'm sorry, Wu Yue, I heard about your things from Bai Yu."

"... Yeah."

After hearing what You Yu said, Wu Yue's heart was suddenly startled, and her expression was a little flustered, but she quickly calmed down.

Next, You Yu... will definitely say a lot of words to preach to her, right? It's okay, she has been mentally prepared.

However, Wu Yue, who was expecting this in her heart, did not expect that You Yu would say something like this next -

"She told me that it was because I spent too little time with you... that caused you to become what you are now."

"...Huh?"

As if he did not notice the shocked expression on Wu Yue's face, You Yu continued:

"...Although I really don't understand it, from what happened recently, it seems to be the case."

"After all, we have been busy with combat training for some time, right? This has led to both you and Bai Yu being a little tired after training."

"After returning home... we still have to deal with these academic matters, and it seems that there is no other time to do what we want to do."

"And I... was busy with work and didn't notice your condition in time."

"So..."

After a pause, Youyu finally said:

"I'm sorry, Wuyue, I haven't noticed your condition during this period of time."

"If I had noticed you earlier, maybe it wouldn't be like this."

"Although I still have a lot to say to you, if I don't say what I want most now, then there may be no chance."

"So... what I want to say is--"

After taking a deep breath, Youyu said:

"Can our current relationship return to the way it was before?"

"I really don't like the way it is now."

"... Alas?"

Wuyue didn't expect Youyu to say something like this.

This was completely beyond her expectations.

"..."

Because Youyu made a request to her for the first time.

And it was because of this kind of thing.

Now, Wuyue's heart is full of contradictions.

She was very happy that Youyu could ask her for something, but if he had to do this because of this matter...

Then, would he be happy?

Thinking of this, Wu Yue met Youyu's eyes.

Then... after thinking for a while...

"I think... it should be possible."

"But, maybe it will take some time."

Wu Yue gave her answer.

In fact, thinking about this, it seems that there is nothing to hesitate about. If she refuses Youyu, will Youyu be happy? It is definitely not the case.

During this period of time, Youyu may have suffered from this atmosphere like her.

Even if it is not for her ownFor Youyu, she must agree to it.

"... Will it take some time?"

After hearing Wu Yue's answer, Youyu was silent for a while, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, he said to Wu Yue with a grateful tone:

"Thank you... Wu Yue, you can accept my proposal. To be honest... I was a little unsure from the beginning."

"... You have worked hard during this period."

"... After all, I didn't talk to you much before, right?"

"That's right."

Looking at Youyu nodding, Wu Yue, who had put down the heavy pressure like a boulder in her heart, couldn't help but laugh and said:

"Yes... From the time when I quarreled with you to now, only a few days have passed."

"But... every day, I feel like I am living a year, and I am living... very hard."

"Even the red gem on my neck has become a little dim..."

"... Darken? ”

After extracting this key information from Wu Yue's words, You Yu frowned, then changed the subject and asked:

"You said that the gem on your neck... that turns you into a magical girl has darkened, what's going on?"

After hearing You Yu's question, Wu Yue thought for a while and said:

"I don't know the specific situation. It was the day after I had a quarrel with you. I got up and washed up and found that the gem on my neck had darkened."

"Did it have any effect on you?"

"Influence? Well... Let me think about it, there should be some. During the first training this week, when I turned into a magical girl, I seemed to feel... my strength was a little weaker than before."

"Is that so... At that time, it seemed that you were in a bad mood, right? What about now? How do you feel now? How is it now?"

"Not as dim as before, I can feel it."

After answering Youyu's question, Wu Yue was silent for a while, and then continued:

"I think... the reason why this gem darkened should be related to my mood at that time."

"After quarreling with you, I always questioned myself, can I really protect you? Will I hurt you? Will... not contacting you is the best choice?"

"At that time, I once questioned myself like this."

"But when I saw the expression on your face, Youyu, when I saw the painful expression on your face because of me."

"I thought, what's the point of blaming myself like this?"

"Escape blindly, but it will only make you more hurt."

" So, it is better to accept who I am now, and then... do my best to live a good life, make myself better again, and not let you show that expression again. "

"At least this way... I can be regarded as protecting you, Youyu."

"After I made this decision..."

"The gemstone has become bright again."

"..."

"Is that so."

After listening to Wu Yue's explanation, Youyu was silent for a while, then sighed and said:

"So... you are so strong..."

"What?"

"..."

"Nothing."

Shaking his head, Youyu decided to say what he wanted to say in the end, so he turned to look at Wu Yue and said:

"You should remember that tomorrow is your birthday, right? Wu Yue."
