The Devil's High School Student

In appearance, he was very good-looking, and after a detailed conversation, he successfully broke her ordinary impression of Long Yi when they first met yesterday.

From the moment he first appeared, he has always behaved very coldly. Combined with his identity, it really gave him a special sense of mystery.

He seems to care about signing the contract, so he has been patiently explaining it to himself, but if he doesn't ask questions, he won't take the initiative to speak, and his personality is somewhat withdrawn.

However, at least Sakurajima Mai can be sure that Long Yi will not hurt her.

Otherwise, with Long Yi's ability, there would be no need to waste so much words with a weak woman like her.

"Please let me think about this matter first." Mai Sakurajima said softly.

"Can."

Long Yi nodded, he still had to have some patience.

Mai was quite satisfied with Long Yi's attitude;

She hasn't chatted with anyone for a long time since that strange state appeared, and now she finally feels like a human being instead of like a ghost.

Although, the person she was talking to claimed to be a demon...

Her expression became a little more polite:

"Would you like a drink of water?"

"Thank you. I have the saliva myself."

Sakurajima Mai: "...??"

Both sides looked at each other speechlessly...

The atmosphere fell into silence for a while.

Long Yi: "...just to liven up the atmosphere."

"Thank you for successfully cooling down the atmosphere." Mai Sakurajima complained expressionlessly.

Long Yi just smiled lightly and didn't care about her complaints.

In short... the matter of seeing her body was finally revealed, just treat it as if it never happened.

…

14. I don’t bet on the goodness of human nature, I bet on the evil of human nature.

Putting aside the unexpected surprise of crashing into the bathroom in the form of a demon, the acquaintance process between Long Yi and Mai Sakurajima was quite normal...

From Mai Sakurajima's point of view, Long Yi doesn't look like the kind of devil she understands at all.

He was neither as vicious nor as ruthless as she thought. If you put aside his pair of demonic wings and magical powers, he was no different from an ordinary human being.

What Sakurajima Mai didn't know was that just a few days ago, Long Yi was really an ordinary human being...

"How about you tell me your story first."

Long Yi took the lead in provoking the topic:

"To solve a problem, you need to know the root cause first, right?"

Mai Sakurajima was silent for two seconds, her expression seemed a little unwilling to mention it, but she also knew that this would not work, so she still tried to treat Long Yi as the audience and said what she had been thinking.

“I have been in the entertainment industry since I was six years old. Since starring in a morning TV series, I have been on TV, in movies, and in commercials. I have always lived in the public eye;

No matter where I go, people will talk about "that Sakurajima Mai", so I don't know when I had a wish, that is, I want to go to a world where no one knows me. "

Long Yi frowned slightly when he heard this.

Does this mean that this situation is actually based on Sakurajima Mai's own wish?

"So now it's actually a wish come true."

Sitting on the sofa with his arms folded, Long Yi concluded.

"Yes, but the way my wish comes true is a bit different. It's not that others don't recognize me, but that everyone can't see me."

Speaking of this, Sakurajima Mai's expression was also a little dull, and she was obviously in distress.

Long Yi curled his lips, feeling was a bug in her super power.

"Sure enough, life is about never getting what you want."

His faint voice made Sakurajima Mai feel the same but also felt a little strange.

"You are a devil, but you are talking about life with me."

Long Yi laughed dumbly, "I'm glad I don't have to think about life, otherwise I would have so many worries in this long life."

"It sounds like schadenfreude." Mai Sakurajima said calmly.

"Nothing."

Long Yi smiled faintly and continued confidently:

"After listening to your description, I probably understand that this is the so-called [atmosphere]. Your special ability seems to be affected by it."

Long Yi had heard Rias talk about the source of abilities between humans.

Basically, human superpowers are formed out of certain desires of human beings themselves;

For example, there were humans who used their own powerful desires to gain recognition as top-notch artifacts.

That kind of divine weapon can even kill gods, so it is also called a divine destroyer. The top ten divine weapons today are all divine destroyers. Of course, there are also divine destroyers outside the top ten. There are currently thirteen of them. The legend of the God of Destruction.

Although humans like Sakurajima Mai are far from being recognized as divine weapons, the source of her power is exactly the same as other humans.

After listening to Long Yi's description, Mai was a little puzzled:

"...What does atmosphere mean?"

"It's very simple. As long as a person is alive, he will definitely have a circle. Whether he is in school or in society, he will be trapped in it."

Long Yi spoke calmly, as if he had already experienced it, and continued slowly:

"Once you are too conspicuous, you will always hear bad words behind your back, be said to be getting carried away, or be jealous of others."

Long Yi had actually known about this situation for a long time, so he had developed the ability to make excuses;

He tried his best to avoid being too unique in the eyes of others, and also to avoid being too prominent in front of ordinary people.

But Mai Sakurajima is different. She has been a child star since she was young, and has grown up to be a big star. Her brilliance can no longer be concealed.

In Long Yi's opinion, it is inevitable that she will be alienated by people around her.

Because in the eyes of ordinary people, she is so dazzling, and so high and unattainable.

After listening to Long Yi's explanation, Mai Sakurajima almost understood it.

Indeed, she has been passively bearing the high and mighty as understood by others. This is not her own choice, but the social class that decides it.

"There is nothing we can do about it." Mai Sakurajima couldn't help but whispered.

"Well, it's annoying to think about fighting against the atmosphere."

Long Yi nodded and sighed with emotion:

"Unfortunately, most people can't ignore the [atmosphere]. Occasionally, there are one or two people who don't care about other people's eyes and are strong in heart, and most of them become weirdos in the eyes of others."

He shook his head: "So, to sum up, I have now tentatively drafted two ways to solve your situation."

"...Really?"

Sakurajima Mai expressed doubt.

She is still confused and has no clues. Long Yi has thought of two ways here?

Long Yi stretched out his index finger:

"First, find the starting point of your symptoms and create a sensational rumor about you. The more explosive the better. This is an excellent weapon to fight against the [atmosphere]."

"For example?"

"Well, for example, the big star Sakurajima Mai's underground love affair is exposed, and she is deceived and abandoned by her sea king boyfriend?"

"I choose the second one." Sakurajima Mai said without hesitation.

Long Yi pursed his lips: "You rejected me so quickly... I was thinking I could pretend to be Aquaman's boyfriend or something."

"You underestimate the media too much. Even if it's a made-up story, they will still crawl all over your body like ants."

Sakurajima Mai reminded her. As a star, she knew too well what kind of people the media were. If she really did what Long Yi said, the result would only be to burn herself.

Long Yi said calmly: "Of course I know. It's better to say that I'm looking at the characteristics of those media."

He looked at Sakurajima Mai and said lightly:

"I don't bet on the goodness of human nature, I bet on the evil of human nature; I don't bet that they want you to live, I bet that they want me to die."

Sakurajima Mai: "..."

The girl couldn't help but look at Long Yi in a daze.

The words that made people's heartbeats stagnate came out of Long Yi's mouth so calmly, making Sakurajima Mai's heartbeat slow down by half a beat.

After a long while, she slowly spoke: "... I don't need you to do this, let's talk about the second method."

Long Yi was silent for a moment, and said softly:

"The second method still needs to find the starting point of your symptoms, and then find a way to slowly change the cognition of people around you, and try to make them remember your existence again, but this method,, the success rate is very low."

As far as Long Yi's idea is concerned, he tends to choose the first method. Even if he doesn't use the example of Aquaman's boyfriend, as long as he finds the right explosive news, he will definitely be able to be unstoppable.

But Sakurajima Mai in the story must be in a vulnerable group, and there must be another person to play the villain to arouse public anger...

...

15, is the devil so good at playing?

Sakurajima Mai understands that the first method proposed by Long Yi may really change her current situation.

But if Long Yi's method is really adopted, then Long Yi is the only one who can see her and cooperate with her so far, and Long Yi will definitely be implicated by her at that time.

Those media and entertainment reporters can be said to be omnipresent. They wantonly invade other people's privacy for a piece of gossip. Once Long Yi is involved in it, it will definitely be difficult to get away with it.

Even though Mai Sakurajima is facing difficulties now, she still doesn't want others to be hurt because of her own affairs.

Because the owner disagrees with his first plan, Long Yi can only follow Mai Sakurajima's choice and adopt the second plan.

"Then the first question now is how to find the origin of your symptoms."

Long Yi said in a deep voice: "Could it be in your entertainment company?"

Since this symptom is formed by Mai Sakurajima's own wishes, the most likely time to produce this state should be when she is in the entertainment company.

But Mai Sakurajima shook her head gently: "It won't be the entertainment company."

Although her tone was light, it was firm, and even Long Yi couldn't figure out where her confidence came from.

"Why?"

"Nothing, I just don't think it's." Mai Sakurajima was silent for a moment and didn't say it clearly.

Long Yi looked at Sakurajima Mai with a slightly strange look. He keenly noticed that there seemed to be something that the girl didn't want to mention.

It seems that there is another hidden story?

Long Yi was thinking about it, but on the surface he followed Sakurajima Mai's advice and smiled.

"Okay, then the entertainment company's speculation is ruled out." Long Yi didn't ask questions, but chose to believe it. He naturally took over the conversation and passed it over.

The girl couldn't help but feel a little grateful. Long Yi didn't ask any more questions, which obviously took her wishes into consideration.

"If that's the case, where was the place where you first discovered that you had this symptom?"

Sakurajima Mai said without hesitation: "The first time I found myself invisible was when I went to the aquarium on a whim."

"...Could it be the aquarium that is known as one of the three holy places for dating?"

"That's right."
