“Ye Jun, today's movie was really good.”
As they walked out from the dense crowd after the movie ended, Kato Megumi seemed to still be lingering in the moment.
“It's 8:20 now, there's still time... Megumi, do you want to ride the Ferris wheel?”
Ye Ran checked the time on his phone and, seeing that it was still early, extended the invitation to the girl.
“Hmm, sure!”
Kato Megumi blinked her big eyes.
Her delicate features, illuminated by the vibrant neon lights, appeared even more enchanting.
Since it was the weekend, there were still quite a few people at the amusement park.
Ye Ran directly used his wealth to monopolize the amusement park.
The originally bustling crowd instantly transformed into tranquility.
“Let's go.”
Ye Ran took the girl's small hand and led her onto the Ferris wheel.
Kato Megumi obediently didn’t ask any questions, allowing him to hold her hand.
The moonlight was hazy.
The bright moon's clear light spilled over the distant lights of thousands of homes, as if draping a layer of sheer silver gauze.
It was cold up high.
From this perspective, everything below gradually appeared smaller.
In the narrow cabin of the Ferris wheel, a pleasant fragrance emanated from the girl, captivating Ye Ran.
Kato Megumi's facial expression remained unchanged.
It was hard to read, making it impossible to guess her thoughts.
Unlike the vibrant and lively Kasumigaoka Shiwa, or the infatuated Yukino Yukinoshita in bed.
The ponytailed girl had the gentle aura of a neighbor girl, making her the perfect type to bring home as a wife.
“I really want to see what kind of situation would cause Megumi to show a strong change in expression.”
Looking at Kato Megumi's pure little face, Ye Ran suddenly muttered to himself.
“Hmm, Ye Jun wants to know about my expression changes?”
Kato Megumi blinked her sparkling big eyes.
The girl's breathing seemed to remain steady, but with Ye Ran's enhanced senses, he could clearly hear her heart racing.
“Ye Ran-kun, haven't you realized that dating so many girls at once seems a bit inappropriate?”
“How could it be inappropriate?” Ye Ran said earnestly, shamelessly, “I just live life more fully than others.”
“It seems so.” Kato Megumi fell silent for a moment, turned her head, and gazed into the boy's eyes with her brown ones: “I think, even if I spent my whole life, I wouldn’t be able to change Ye Jun's nature of being so loving.”
The girl's words left Ye Ran momentarily stunned.
It sounded quite ambiguous.
It was easy to let one's imagination run wild.
At this moment, a thin layer of blush suddenly appeared on the girl's fair cheeks, differing from her usual innocence, making her look quite alluring.
Looking up into Ye Ran's eyes, her brown eyes sparkled, creating a stark contrast to her usual calm demeanor.
“Ye Jun, it seems like you've been staring at me since just now.”
Ye Ran couldn't help but look down at the girl whose complexion resembled cherry blossoms.
He noticed her smooth and upright curves rising and falling gently with her breath.
Though not overly grand, it was definitely an undeniable presence.
The slender waist that followed was also quite compact, and her long, beautiful legs had an elegant line.
Perhaps, even Kato Megumi herself was completely unaware... just based on her curvaceous figure and her always calm expression, it made one want to tease her a little.
Through the thin fabric, Ye Ran suddenly felt Kato Megumi's soft body pressing against him.
“Thump, thump...”
This distance was so close that they could hear each other's rapid heartbeats.
There was even a faint warmth being transmitted.
The pleasant scent of the girl lingered in Ye Ran's nostrils.
The increasingly hurried breaths of the two at this moment felt extremely intimate, stirring a flutter in their hearts.
Words seemed pale and powerless at this time.
Only actions could prove it most powerfully.
Ye Ran took the initiative, breaking the silence.
He boldly leaned down, and while Kato Megumi was still hesitating, he gently kissed her cheek.
Then, he completely covered her lips.
The girl's cherry lips were soft and sweet.
And Kato Megumi's body instantly tensed up.
From the contact between their bodies, Ye Ran could clearly feel the girl trembling slightly.
But surprisingly, she didn’t struggle violently, allowing Ye Ran's exploration to continue smoothly.
“Huff...”
Ye Ran's breathing became heavier as he was about to move his hand from Kato Megumi's slender waist downwards.
Suddenly, the brightly lit amusement park plunged into darkness.
“Ahhh!!!”
The light before them vanished in an instant.
Kato Megumi was startled and instinctively dove into Ye Ran's embrace.
“Huff, huff...”
However, at that moment,
the Ferris wheel they were on suddenly accelerated, uncontrollably plummeting towards the ground.
“You blind fool! You ruined my date.”
Ye Ran's good mood instantly turned cold.
His hand, filled with magical energy, suddenly reached out fiercely into the void to the left.
Ugh—!?
A six-eyed, eight-armed evil spirit was yanked out from the darkness, letting out a terrified shriek.
It never expected that this seemingly ordinary human could discover its presence.
Thud—!
A bizarre black key, surrounded by three-colored runes, pierced through the evil spirit's essence, pinning it directly to the ground.
Hiss, hiss, hiss~
The blade imbued with spells continuously burned the evil spirit, distorting its features, but before it could retaliate, Ye Ran's hand had already grasped its forehead.
Buzz!
The dragon blood factor flowed through his veins, transforming abundant vitality into pure magical power.
At the same time, a soft, holy light suddenly illuminated Ye Ran's body, making him particularly striking in the darkness.
“Proclaim—”
The radiant light dispelled the shadows.
The evil spirit felt a scorching flow surge into its body, causing it to emit a painful wail.
The boy held onto the essence of the evil spirit.
His deep voice echoed within the Ferris wheel.
“I govern slaughter, I govern life.”
“I wound, I heal.”
“None may surpass my palm.”
“None may escape my gaze…”
“Let mercy gaze upon this soul! (Kyrie eleison)”
“Ahhh!”
Like cold water splashed into hot oil, the pitch-black essence instantly boiled, accompanied by piercing screams, as countless black mists surged restlessly.
Buzz!
The shining white light illuminated the night sky, completely dispersing the dark figure, as strands of black mist vanished in the brilliance.
And among the countless points of light, a serene soul gradually returned to nothingness, casting a grateful glance towards him.
