Heaven Sends Forth Its Killing Intent, Shifting Stars and Constellations.
Children's minds are so sensitive and fragile; if it were her now, she would definitely have done a better thing.
Before long, she developed a liking for manga because of Izumi, and then came into contact with various aspects of ACG, finally understanding the existence of the so-called 'chuunibyou' (middle school syndrome).
At that time, she thought she could understand the world that Izumi lived in, because she had reached the same level and seen the existence of the Invisible Boundary!
As it turned out, she was wrong.
Izumi isn't just suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), he's... gone mad!
Based on the doctor's diagnosis and her research.
Quan likely has two or more personalities, almost to the point of mental instability. Sometimes he is a normal person, either indifferent or fanatical, but whenever he has an episode, he enters his own world, and his thinking becomes extremely disjointed.
Fortunately, Izumi's condition gradually stabilized, and he did not engage in any acts of revenge against society, so the relationship between the two remained somewhat awkward.
Then one day, Izumi suddenly transferred schools.
It was only then that she began to clearly realize how important her Childhood Friend was to her, and she was completely distracted during her school days.
Fortunately, Izumi returned to Tokyo a little over a year later.
Otherwise, she would definitely not be able to resist the impulse and follow in the other person's footsteps.
When I got to high school, everything changed again.
Despite being someone who should have been rejected for her chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), she unexpectedly became a hot star at Shuchiin. All of this happened in ways she never anticipated.
It's certainly a happy thing that Izumi has so many friends, but...
There are just too many cats trying to steal fish!
What should have been a memory belonging only to her has been invaded by so many people.
As a result, she has now found herself in such an awkward situation.
Standing to his left, it felt like we were separated by the Milky Way.
Eriri re-examines her past with the protagonist, and at this moment her emotions are very complicated and her mind is in turmoil.
Suddenly, she looked up at the sky and saw the twinkling stars, and her heart fluttered.
The atmosphere seems quite nice right now?
"Um... Izumi, listen to me, I want to ask you something."
The girl's thin lips parted and closed several times before she finally uttered a word.
"What's up?"
He turned his head away.
"What does my existence mean to Izumi?"
She bit her lip.
"Eriri, you are my guiding light."
He pondered for a moment, then looked up at the brightest star and gave his answer.
"Road sign? What's that?"
The girl's expression was somewhat strained.
"You can think of it simply as a 'road sign,' or perhaps as a nail that secures [my way]."
"I think you're the one who looks like a nail!"
"I suspect you're making a sexual innuendo, but I have no proof, Teacher Kashiwagi Eri."
"I don't know anyone with that name."
The two bickered for a while longer.
After the initial joy, Eriri's eyes filled with guilt. Her gaze flickered, and she said resolutely, "Izumi, I want to apologize to you for what happened before."
"Did you do something wrong? I don't know anything about it."
The girl gazed back, and the look in her Childhood Friend's eyes was bright and dazzling, purer than moonlight.
Her psychological defenses crumbled instantly.
No, forget I said that.
The girl's voice trembled slightly, tinged with tears. She turned her head away, closed her eyes, and quickly wiped her eyes with her sleeve.
She finally realized that meeting Quan was indeed the best thing that had ever happened to her.
"Godly gold."
Hasegawa Izumi chuckled, then looked up as if she had noticed something.
"Eriri, it's coming, Meteor!"
"Hey, are you here?"
Startled Eriri looked in the direction he was pointing.
Beneath the curtain of darkness, countless glittering meteors streaked across the sky, their brilliant tails tracing beautiful arcs, a spectacle that amazed the entire world.
"So beautiful, even more beautiful than before."
Eriri murmured to herself.
Before long, the meteor shower disappeared, and night returned.
At that moment, Hasegawa Izumi's shoulder was bumped.
He turned his head and saw Eriri leaning on his shoulder.
It turned out that the girl had exhausted Mental Power from practicing her Path of Painting and had fallen asleep.
He smiled slightly and sat there motionless, waiting for her to wake up.

Chapter 1: Heaven Unleashes Deadly Intent, Stars Shift and Constellations Change.
The bright moonlight bathed the earth, casting a glow over the lush green grass. A gentle breeze rustled through the courtyard, causing the leaves to whisper in the breeze.
In this tranquil atmosphere, the girl leaned lazily on the boy's shoulder, her brows relaxed, like a romantic scene straight out of a comic book.
Just then, my phone beeped.
Hasegawa Izumi took her phone out of her pocket.
It turns out that the people in the group were talking about the meteor shower that had just occurred.
First, Takanashi Rikka and Dekomori Sanae sent several photos they had taken, seemingly from the same angle.
The Wicked Eye of the Tyrant King User: An unidentified celestial body has been detected descending to the Human World, and a risk assessment is currently underway.
Thunder Hammer User: Master and I were just out sweeping away dark creatures when we suddenly witnessed this scene. I checked the electronic ocean and found that the mechanism hadn't given any warning, which means something is unusual.
Spirit Channeling: Wow, so beautiful.
Morisummer: It's a pity I missed it.
Fallen Holy Black Cat: The last time I saw such a sight was back in the Heavenly Realm.
Greedy Witch: Ah, I really want to watch the meteor shower with the Club President right now, and then do something naughty under the cover of night.
Thunder Hammer User: Damn it! You bad woman!
The Greedy Witch: Dare you say you've never fantasized about it!
Thunder Hammer User: Of course not! At least not the one after that!
Greedy Witch: Heh~
As they argued, the topic suddenly veered off course.
Morisummer: By the way, it seems the Seeker of Truth isn't online. Could it be...?
These words immediately sent a jolt through everyone who was reading the group messages.
The Greedy Witch: Oh no, the Club President is going to be impure, but it's okay, I can accept it.
Fallen Holy Black Cat: You shouldn't be called the Greedy Witch, you should be called the Witch of Lust.
Morisummer: You're getting weirder and weirder.
A few black lines appeared on Hasegawa Izumi's forehead, and she immediately sent a message.
Sage: I'm watching.
Greedy Witch: Club President, you're here! I thought you...
Thunder Hammer User: Lord Sage, I request that lightning be cast upon the Greedy Witch of Greed for her insolence!
Sage: Sanae, you decide what to do.
Greedy Witch:???
Thunder Hammer User: Heh heh, prepare to die!
Just as the two were locked in a heated argument, Rikka suddenly asked a question.
The Wicked Eye of the Tyrant King User: Did the Sage see tonight's meteor shower?
Sage: Yes, it's very good.
The Greedy Witch: Alone?
Sage: No, it's between Eriri and Eriri, because we made a promise about this a few years ago.
His answer immediately silenced the group chat.
"So this is what Childhood Friend..."
Thinking about the depth of their relationship, the girls couldn't help but sigh, and quickly changed the subject in the group chat until the chat ended.
"Hmm..."
After an unknown amount of time, the Blonde Haired Girl woke up from her deep sleep.
She was stunned when she opened her sleepy eyes and realized her current situation.
I actually fell asleep leaning on Izumi's shoulder?
This, this, this is a bit too ambiguous!
Isn't this something that couples usually do?
The girl's cheeks flushed instantly, and steam seemed to rise from her head; she almost fainted from embarrassment.
Eriri, you're awake.
"Ah!"
Hasegawa Izumi's sudden words made Eriri stand up reflexively.
"Um, this was an accident. I was so tired from drawing that I accidentally fell asleep..."
Her eyes were glazed over, and she gestured wildly as she explained.
"I can tell, you don't need to explain so much."
His expression was very calm.
Her calm demeanor made the girl feel like she had just acted like an idiot, and she puffed out her cheeks.
Damn it, give me back that fleeting moment of attraction I just had!
"Hmm? The celestial phenomena have suddenly changed?"
Just as the embarrassed and angry girl was about to retaliate, she saw his expression change slightly as he looked up at the sky.
'Hmph, what a cheap trick to distract...'
Despite thinking this, she still looked over, but found nothing.
There's nothing there!
