"Pandemonion, or bread (Pan) for short, arrives with two people and three legs..."
The host was still explaining the rules of the competition.
"There's no use being the first to arrive!" Xin Baji pointed at Pandemonion hanging on the shelf at the end of the path and complained crazily, "How can you eat that kind of thing! That kind of monster!"
However, Kagura didn't care at all. She came to Shinpachi's side and squatted down, and slowly tied her left foot with Shinpachi's right foot with a ribbon.
"...Alright, all contestants, please take your places!"
"Is it okay if I don't take my position?!" Shinbaji closed his eyes, with black lines at the corners of his eyes, shaking his head crazily to express his refusal, "Absolutely not! I will never go! No!"
"preparation-"
"-etc!"
Shinpachi quickly shouted to stop, but neither the host nor Kagura gave him a chance to react.
Just when the host shouted "Run!", Kagura shouted and rushed straight towards the finish line! As for Shinpachi, because he couldn't react in time to keep up with Kagura's footsteps, he lost his footing and fell to the ground.
Shinbaji was dragged to the finish line by Kagura.
However, compared to Kagura and Shinpachi, who reached the finish line instantly as soon as the host called out, the other pair of people and shikigami from the other group, the Aili Wilds, were still stuck in place, unable to take a step forward.
"Oh! The Marino team's strides are not in sync with each other because they summoned a huge shikigami!" The host shouted out the reason.
"It hurts! No! My butt is going to crack!" Hoken looked up to the sky and screamed in pain as he cooperated with Yashamaru and took a tentative step.
"What are you doing?!" Daoman outside the venue had veins popping up on his forehead, "Let's go!"
"Oh! Maybe this time..." Qingming on the other side clenched his fists, with a bit of excitement on his face.
"Right, so I said it a long time ago." Gintoki said, holding his hands.
[Pandemonium...] Jiang Cheng frowned slightly, staring straight at Pandemonion hanging on the shelf at the end, [I always feel like... I have heard this name somewhere, and the appearance is also very familiar... ]
"Stand up! New Eight-year-old! Hurry up and eat Pandemonion!" Kagura shouted to New Eight-year-old who was curled up on the ground with his head in his hands.
"No! There's nothing you can say about eating Pandemonion!" Xinbaji refused loudly with black lines on his head, and then tentatively opened his eyes and glanced at the Pandemonion on his head, "Why is it looking? Me! You are just staring at me!"
Seeing the appearance of Xin Baji, Kagura could only help Xin Baji up and push him forward, and at the same time comforted him: "This kind of thing is almost like eating crabs, Aru! Crabs, octopus, clams Oh, anglerfish, the weirder it looks, the tastier it is, Aru! It’s the Aru that Gin-chan said!”
"That's not the problem, okay!" Shinpachi, who was still resisting Kagura's push, closed his eyes tightly to prevent himself from looking at Pandemonion, who was only ten centimeters above his head, and shouted at the same time, "Even if it happens again It’s delicious, how can such a monster eat it?”
"Then close your eyes Aru, and I'll help you stuff it into your mouth."
"No using your hands~" the host kindly reminded, and then exclaimed, "Also, while you are struggling, the team from the Mile Wilders has arrived!"
"Xinbaji! Hurry! Eat Aru first!" Kagura reminded him quickly when he saw the team of people in the wild who were about to reach the finish line.
"Damn it! If that's the case, I'll risk it all!" Xin Bajie's heart trembled, "I'm just holding on to the mentality of staying in memory of Uluru!"
(Standing at Uluru: A challenge program produced by Daily Broadcasting System (MBS) from the mid-20th century to the early 21st century)
Having said that, Shinpachi and Kagura on the side jumped up and down at the same time, trying to reach Pandemonion on their head with their mouths. Next to them, Yashamaru from the Marino team was unable to do so due to his size. It was too big, so I had to squat down, lower my head and open my mouth to reach the other Pandemonion.
In general, it is not easy for both sides in a sense.
"Damn it! It's still close!" Xin Bajia, who had jumped several times but failed to eat Pandemonion, said somewhat unwillingly.
As soon as he finished speaking, as if in response to Xin Bajiu's reluctance, Xin Bajiu jumped up again and his mouth finally touched Pandemonion's... mouth.
After a gentle kiss, Xin Bajia, who had not yet landed, couldn't help but open his eyes wide and stared blankly at Pandemonion in front of him.
After landing this time, Xinbaji did not jump again, but lowered his head and remained silent.
"Huh?" Kagura realized that something was wrong with the situation and looked down at Shinpachi, "What's wrong with you, Aru?"
"That...first kiss..." Xinbajiu said softly, but then he raised his head again, "No, it's nothing. Let's cheer up and try it again."
"Huh?" Kagura made a confused sound.
At this moment, a strange girl's voice came from above Kagura and Shinpachi. (PS: The sound only appeared in Shinpachi's mind. Kagura heard nothing, only Pandemonion's insect cry)
"That... that, I... it's my first time too." Pandemonion turned her face away, blushed slightly, and said awkwardly.
"Why?"
Xin Baji's face turned red unconsciously, his pupils trembled unconsciously, and the look he looked at Pandemonion was as green as an innocent boy holding hands with a girl for the first time.
"Oh! What an unexpected incident!" The host exclaimed and laughed, "It looks like he kissed Pandemonion accidentally!"
In an instant, the crowd in the stands became excited, with whistles and boos ringing incessantly.
"It doesn't matter! Hurry up!" A vein popped up on Gintoki's cheek unconsciously and was still beating. He yelled angrily to the crowds in the stands around him, "Come on! What the hell! What are you shushing?! Eat! Hurry up and give it to me!"
"Private...Private Marseille, I...didn't mean to do that." Xinbaji blushed, looked at Pandemonion above him and whispered in a low voice, then lowered his head, and his voice became quieter and quieter, " I'm sorry...in this way, I took away...your important...first time..."
As he said this, Xinbaji scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"No...it's nothing, I don't care..." Pandemonion hugged his chest with his paws, blushing and evading his eyes.
"Ah..." Xin Bajiu's heart trembled, and he raised his head to look at Pandemonion, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.
At the same time, the atmosphere between Xin Baji and Pandemonion also changed, and even the background turned pink, like first love.
"Why are you blushing! It's inexplicable!" Gintoki in the audience complained crazily, "What is that? That ecstatic atmosphere? Why is there that kind of atmosphere in the Pandemonion eating competition?"
"That child..." Jiang Cheng asked Gintoki with some uncertainty, "Does he have some special sexual interests that we don't know about? I always feel that even the BGM has changed, becoming the kind that can only be found in innocent romance works. It’s a tender BGM.”
"The devil knows!"
[What... I just kissed accidentally...] Shinbaji turned his face away slightly and thought with his heart pounding, [Facing Pandemonion like this, it is definitely... definitely not the influence of kissing...]
"Hey! If you still have time to have a psychological monologue, eat it quickly!" Gintoki shouted with white eyes.
[That was an accident rather than a kiss...] Shinpachi blushed, his eyes were complicated, and he thought to himself, [Pandemonion didn’t kiss me because he liked me...]
"Who is Pandemonion?! Your classmate?!"
[Moreover...] Xinbajiu kept his face straight and continued to think, [Now is not the time to think about these things...]
Immediately afterwards, the Pandemonion in Shinpachi's mind changed! Although the body is generally unchanged, the face has changed! From a disgusting monster face to a beautiful blue-eyed girl with beautiful long golden hair!
Gintoki, who had detected the image in Shinpachi's mind, once again complained, "Hey! Who is that?! Does Pandemonion-san look like this? Doesn't he have a face like Behelet!" "
(Behelet: from Legend of Sword and Wind, Overlord’s Egg)
[Ah, so strange...] Xinbaji's heartbeat began to speed up, [Strange, why is my heart beating so fast?]
Thinking of this, Xinbaji tentatively raised his eyes and glanced at Pandemonion, but he just looked over. Xin Baji found that Pandemonion secretly glanced at him at the same time.
The two people's eyes met for an instant, although their eyes only met for a moment, and then Pandemonion quickly looked away, evading his eyes and combing his hair with his front paws.
But a strange feeling slowly arose between the two of them, and it couldn't go away for a long time...
[Is Pendemonion-san so cute?]Xin Baji's desire gradually became addicted, [Oops! It’s getting more and more difficult to speak!]
"Hey, Shinpachi, what are you doing, Aru? Hurry up and eat Aru." Kagura, who had not noticed the thoughts in Shinpachi's mind, frowned and reminded.
After coming back to his senses, Shinbachi responded hesitantly, and then took off with Kagura again.
But this time, although the mouth did not touch, one of the tentacles at the head of the tights worn by Xin Bajia touched Pandemonion's body.
"Ah..." Pandemonion whispered shyly.
"Ah! I'm sorry!" Shinpashi said with a red face after landing, "Did you encounter something strange?"
Pandemonion crossed her front paws and covered her chest and shook her head slightly. She lowered her head and blushed, eyes evasive, and said in a low voice: "No, breasts..."
"Breasts?!" In an instant, Xinbaji's whole body felt bad, and then he quickly put his hands together, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to do this..."
"It's okay, I know..." the considerate Pandemonion said with a face, "I'm sorry, my chest keeps bumping... I accidentally... next time... next time I will try my best not to say anything. Sound!"
