The sunny boy in Cardcaptor Sakura

Chapter 536 Future Plans

"The battle was so fierce, Xia classmate, you are not injured, right?"

Qiu Sui looked at the devastated land and looked at Xia Yu nervously. After she woke up, her mother had already told her what happened after she fell into a coma.

At first she didn't have any sense of reality, but when she saw the destroyed streets outside, she realized that the battle was really fierce.

And all this was to help her and Mr. Kaidu, which made her feel nervous, fearing that Xia Yu would be hurt.

"Um……"

Sensing Qiu Sui's sincere concern, Xia Yu was silent for a moment, and his conscience suddenly ached. If he had known earlier, he would not have been so harsh on the dragon incarnated by Kaidu.

Fortunately, he had foresight and covered the half-dead black dragon with a dark curtain before coming, otherwise Qiu Sui would have been frightened to death when she saw it.

Xia Yu stopped thinking about it and grinned: "Don't worry, I never fight a battle without preparation. Although that dragon is very tricky, I was lucky enough not to get hurt."

"Are you really not injured?"

"Well, I'm not really hurt."

After getting a definite answer, Akiho patted her chest as if she was relieved. She did not ask what the dragon that Kaito transformed into was like. After all, in many books she had read, dragons were synonymous with power and majesty.

As long as Classmate Xia is not injured in this battle, the rest will not be a problem.

Soon, under the leadership of Xia Yu, they arrived at the location of the black dragon's head.

The unicorn, the incarnation of the small system, is guarding here. Because Xia Yu covered the black dragon with a black curtain before he left, the miserable black dragon can only be vaguely seen in outline at this moment.

Compared to the black dragon whose outline could only be seen, the unicorn in destruction mode truly brought a jaw-dropping shock to everyone who came here.

"so big……"

"so high."

“Is it actually that big?”

Hearing these shocking things, Xia Yu coughed lightly and said, "Well, there will be plenty of opportunities to marvel at them slowly in the future. Now let's turn this dragon back into Haidu."

"Oh, yes, we need to transform Mr. Kaito back first."

Sakura immediately came back to her senses and looked at the black dragon hidden by the curtain. She asked curiously, "Is this the dragon that Mr. Kaito transformed into? Why is it hidden?"

"Because it looks a little scary, I'm afraid it will scare you, but it can still perform magic like this, Sakura, just do it like this."

"Ok."

Sakura nodded without any doubt, threw out the transparent card she had just obtained, and then pressed it hard with her wand, saying loudly: "Let the dragon in front of you return to his original appearance!"

"Rewind!"

In an instant, magic power surged, and the transparent card shone brightly, transforming into countless layers of flowing light that completely enveloped the black dragon of unknown length. The black dragon then curled up and twisted like an Ouroboros.

Wrapped in the endless light, the individual's time began to flow backwards. Haidu, who was transformed into a dragon because of the seal, gradually separated from the dragon body and gradually recovered to his former human body.

In just a few seconds, the backflow is completed.

When the flowing light turned back into cards and Haidu successfully returned to his original state, he looked around in a daze, still seeming a little unbelievable.

"I, I'm back?"

"Mr. Kaito!!"

Looking at Kaito who had returned to his original appearance, Akiho could no longer hold back, and with tears in her eyes she rushed over and hugged Kaito directly.

Kaito's body froze when he was suddenly hugged. He looked down at Akiho and subconsciously wanted to reach out and hug Akiho as well. However, he paused the moment his hands were stretched out and finally hesitated and did not hug Akiho.

Looking at Kaito's hesitation, Xiao Tao, who was floating in the air, couldn't help but grit her teeth and said, "Damn it, I really want to change back to my original form and kick him in the face."

Lilia, who was floating nearby, also nodded in agreement: "Indeed, this unromantic blockhead should be kicked hard."

Noticing the conversation between the two, Xia Yu suddenly poked his head out and was eager to try: "Really? Do you want me to do it for you? Don't worry, I can definitely do it."

"Ah this..."

Sensing the expectation in Xia Yu's tone, Liliai and Xiaotao looked at each other, both a little embarrassed, and did not answer Xia Yu.

They were just talking, but if it was this kid, he might really kick Kaito in the face.

After kicking them, he might even look at the two of them innocently, and then say, "Don't look at me, they made me kick you."

On the other side, seeing Xiao Tao and Liliai turning their heads away in silence, Xia Yu curled his lips and made a snort. He knew that these two were just talking nonsense since he had clearly said that he could do it for them.

Although he would definitely put the blame on those two people afterwards, after all, he was not the one who first said he wanted to kick them.

Not long after, Akiho let go of Kaito with a blushing face, and she seemed to have finally realized that it was embarrassing to hug him in front of so many people.

Since this was not the place to talk, they all returned to the living room of Sakura's house.

Kaito looked at the destroyed street with a guilty look on his face. When he returned to the living room, he bowed sincerely to Sakura: "I'm sorry, because of me, this place has been destroyed beyond recognition, especially your home, which almost collapsed."

"It doesn't matter, as long as no one is hurt. As for the damaged areas, we can use magic to restore them." Sakura waved her hand nonchalantly. To her, these were all trivial matters, as long as no one was hurt.

Thinking of this, she quickly asked, "By the way, Mr. Kaito, has your body recovered? Are you still feeling unwell?"

"Thank you for your concern. My body has completely recovered to the state before the dragon transformation..."

Kaito put his hand on his chest, frowned slightly and smiled, "I can still feel D's seal engraved on my body, but there is no sign of it being triggered. It seems to have calmed down."

"Speaking of the seal, why was it triggered before? You clearly said that the condition for the seal to be triggered is that you personally tampered with the magic item, but you were just watching before?" Noticing Kaito's words, Xiao Tao looked at him in confusion.

In fact, Kaidu himself was not clear about this question. He also didn't understand why the seal would be triggered when he was just watching.

Moreover, the seal was different from what he knew. Not only was he not trapped in the cracks of time, he even lost his self-consciousness. It was as if the seal had suddenly made an incomprehensible mistake...

Can't understand...

Haidu subconsciously looked at Xia Yu. When it comes to not understanding, he also has no idea how the man in front of him extracted the magic props. In his perception, that casual action did not have any magic at all. By analogy, it was like an ordinary person reaching out to take out his own things from a bag, full of ease and casualness.

But how is this possible? Even he, the strongest magician in the Magic Association, cannot change the magic props that are deeply rooted in the soul, because most magicians have used their lifelong knowledge to create them, and some magicians have even lost their magic forever.

This incomprehensible power... is like rubbing the logic of the world into the ground, completely ignoring the rules and foundations of this world.

Haidu took a deep breath, suppressed the thoughts in his mind, and shook his head bitterly. There are always people better than you, and it seems that his plan was doomed to fail from the beginning.

"I don't know either. Maybe it was because I was watching that the seal was triggered. It's also because I was just watching and didn't do it myself that the seal had this error."

Kaito explained casually and vaguely, although it was just his guess, the fact that the follow-up action of the seal did not come was enough to prove that his guess was at least partially correct.

This seal does not only allow him to transform into a dragon. If he attempts to escape later, all kinds of attack magic will appear one after another until he is killed.

Now that those attack magics have not appeared, it can only mean that there is a logical error in the seal, or it has simply flowed back to the node that has not been triggered, allowing him to stay here safely.

Thinking of this, Kaito looked at Sakura sincerely again and thanked her: "Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your willingness to help me. Obviously my plan is so excessive, and I have included you in it."

Sakura scratched her head a little embarrassedly after being thanked, and said with a silly smile: "Hehe~ I said it doesn't matter. After all, Mr. Kaito, you haven't done anything yet, right? I can't condemn you now because of what you might do in the future."

"If you really feel bad, Mr. Kaito, then I forgive you now. Besides, everyone is helping you more than me. If you want to thank someone, you should thank everyone."

Hearing what Sakura said, Kaito felt even more apologetic and guilty. Without hesitation, he expressed his sincere gratitude to everyone present.

He especially thanked Xia Yu. After all, it was he who solved the ultimate goal of all his plans, which was to solve Qiu Sui's problem.

As long as the magic item leaves Akiho's body, no matter what the future holds, it will not be worse than the past.

Recalling the scene when he first transformed into a dragon, Haidu looked at Xia Yu and said seriously: "If there is anything you need me to do in the future, even if it means saving my life, I will not hesitate."

Being thanked so earnestly, Xia Yu waved his hand and said honestly, "Don't be so serious. Besides, given the difference in our abilities, I can do whatever I want to do by myself. I don't need you at all."

Haidu couldn't help but remain silent after hearing such merciless words, but he couldn't really believe what the other party said. He had to at least let the other party know that he was serious.

Kaito did not nod in response, but said seriously again: "No matter what, my promise will always be valid, and I will never refuse it even if it means going through fire and water!"

"Tsk, so serious?"

Xia Yu clicked his tongue twice, raised his eyes and said, "You don't need to go through fire and water right now, but there is something I need your help with."

"what's up?"

Haidu immediately became serious when he heard this. Xia Yu reached out and took out his mobile phone, swiping it twice to find the latest news report.

The reports on Gundam and Black Dragon not only did not slow down after the battle, but became more and more intense, and even spread abroad.

If it is not stopped, it will not be long before Tomoeda Town will be overwhelmed by the huge crowds, and then there will be no peace for a day. After waving the news interface on his phone at Kaito, Xia Yu said directly: "Use your time magic to return the world to the few minutes before you turned into a dragon, otherwise this small city will be overwhelmed by the crowds of people who come to join in the fun."

"That's...ok."

Kaidu paused after hearing this, but nodded anyway, and waved his hand to summon back the pocket watch that had fallen when he transformed into a dragon.

But before he could make the next move, Xiao Tao suddenly stopped him with wide eyes, "Wait! Going back so long, the caster has to bear an immeasurable burden. If it's just a few seconds, it's bearable, but to go back so long, with your current strength... can you still support your life?"

Facing Xiao Tao's dissuasion, Kaito was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Even if I can't hold on, I will execute it. This is my fault, and my current life span is enough to support my return."

"You guy..."

Listening to Kaidu's determined words, Xiaotao gritted her teeth and remained silent. This was Kaidu's decision and she had no right to interfere.

Xia Yu was a little stunned when he heard the conversation between the two. He couldn't help but ask, "Wait a minute, what are you talking about? What life support?"

Kaito did not respond, so Xiaotao quickly explained, "Time magic will reduce the lifespan of the caster. Kaito has used time magic many times so far, and his lifespan is almost up."

In response to Xiao Tao's words, Kaito smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Don't worry, my life span can still support me to complete this magic, please let me do it."

"Mr. Kaito..."

There was no concealment in the conversation between the two. After hearing this explanation, Qiu Sui couldn't help but feel heartbroken. She didn't expect that after all the problems were solved, she would suddenly hear this bad news.

It turns out that Kaito's life span is almost over...

Xia Yu looked at Hai Du with a determined look on his face and felt that the world was simply too magical. It was the first time he heard that time magic would shorten the lifespan of the caster.

But whether it was Li Syaoran using the Time Card to pause time or Sakura using the Time Card to go back to the past, they didn't see their lifespans being shortened? At most, the magic power consumption was a bit high.

What's more, when he captured the Clow Cards, an entire day of time went back, but no one's life was consumed.

No, if you think about it carefully, these time magics seem to be cast by cards, not time magic cast by Sakura and Syaoran with their own power.

In this case, it seems that the cards are powerful, and the cards were created by Clow Reed.

I understand. It's because Clow Reed is too strong, so strong that his strength is directly cut off, which makes him think that time magic is very simple.

As for the way he uses the power of time to change the world, it has nothing to do with time magic, so it cannot be used as a reference.

It turned out that they were the supermodels, which made him think that the casting of time magic was very simple. It was ridiculous that ordinary magicians would consume their lifespans when using time magic.

Moreover, even Kaito, who holds the title of "D", cannot ignore this setting, which seems to have further increased Clow Reed's strength.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu collected his thoughts and said, "What kind of setting is this? Since casting time magic will shorten the lifespan of the caster, it's a pity that you can use time magic to turn back time whenever you want."

"I was..."

Kaito's expression darkened. Just when he was about to defend himself, he suddenly paused and asked in surprise, "Wait, how do you know that I used time magic to go back in time?"

"Because I have fought with you before."

Xia Yu glanced at Haidu with disdain, raised his hand, and a time elf as bright as dusk floated out from his palm: "How about you guess? Why didn't your time magic work the last few times? Who do you think is stopping you?"

"This……"

Feeling the familiar power of time, Kaito was speechless. He didn't expect that the mysterious magician who was specifically against him was actually this young child in front of him! ?
Thinking back to his original judgment that it had no magic power and posed no threat, Kaito now felt it was quite ironic.

"You can actually use time magic!?"

Xiao Tao was extremely shocked. For some reason, when she saw that Xia Yu could also use time magic, she suddenly felt that the powerful and mysterious time magic had become worthless.

"Tsk, not only can I do it, but they can do it too."

Xia Yu pointed at Xiaoying and Li Xiaolang who were listening nearby, and replied casually: "And there is one more thing. When the three of us used time magic, there was no setting to reduce lifespan at all."

Hearing this, Xiaotao looked blankly at Xiaoying and Li Syaoran beside her. Facing the inquiring gazes, they both nodded.

Although they used time magic with cards, they did not feel any changes in their bodies.

"..."

Xiao Tao couldn't help but fall into silence. For a moment, it felt that its chosen contractor Kaidu had suddenly become so inferior. What was going on?

Kaito also fell silent. He felt that he, who had been called a genius since childhood, was just an ordinary person compared to the real geniuses.

"Then I..."

"What do you mean by 'I'? Don't try to shirk your responsibility. Hurry up and turn back the time. Oh, and don't count us in. There's no need to take us with you when you go back in time."

As soon as the cold words came out, before Kaito could say anything, Sakura and the others looked over in surprise, and Akiho couldn't help but speak out.

"Xia, please wait a moment. Mr. Kaito's use of time magic will shorten his lifespan. His current lifespan is already..."

"Stop! I know, so don't worry, I have a solution."

"This……"

Hearing this, Qiu Sui was stunned, pursed her lips and nodded, took a deep breath and said: "Then I believe you, Xia classmate."

Although she still couldn't help feeling a little worried, she believed what Xia Yu said more. Since Xia Yu said it so confidently, she just had to trust him.

Seeing this, Kaidu no longer hesitated. He waved his hand to transform his pocket watch back into a long-handled magic wand, then he tied it in front of him and began to recite.

"Tina Liye Triakis, accept my promise and turn back time."

After the spell was finished, a huge clock formation unfolded from under Haidu's feet, and the pointer in the center of the staff began to turn counterclockwise.

As magic power exploded, the world was engulfed in a purple spiral, and a large clock shadow appeared behind Kaidu.

This magical scene shocked several people at the scene and they exclaimed in amazement. After all, it was the first time they saw the real magic of time reversal.

Compared to the previous use of cards to pause time, or to return to the past, this time the time flow is completely different, because this is magic used by Kaito solely with his own strength.

The broken buildings returned to their original state as time went by, the collapsed roads quickly recovered along with the cracks, and the photos and images that were being spread around the world also disappeared as time went by.

Looking at the roof of Sakura's house being restored, Xia Yu paused, and suddenly realized that the unicorn that Xiao Xi had transformed into was still outside.

It is completely unaffected by time. If Xiao Xi is seen again after the time reversal is over, it will probably cause another commotion.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu hurriedly told Xiao Xi in his mind to put away the unicorn outside and come back quickly.

After making the announcement, he took a look at his own sunshine value, and seeing that it did not decrease due to the reversal of time, he nodded with relief.

Sure enough, this will not change due to the influence of time, just like when the time card played tricks, even if he was traveled back in time, the sunshine value he obtained would not disappear because of the flow of time.

Soon, the magic was over, and everything returned to the moment before he arrived. Kaidu subconsciously supported his body with his staff and took two breaths.

Because his life span had been greatly reduced, his face was extremely pale, as if he would die at the next moment.

"Mr. Kaito!"

Seeing this, Akiho supported Kaito with concern and let him sit down on the sofa.

Kaito also rested on the sofa for a few seconds, opened his eyes and smiled, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."

Hearing Haidu's weak voice, Qiusui's eyes turned red, and she quickly looked at Xia Yu: "Xia classmate..."

"Don't worry, there's something else I want to talk about."

Xia Yu waved his hands, leaned back on the sofa with his arms folded across his chest, looked directly at Kaito and Qiu Sui and asked, "For example, what do you want to do in the future?"

"Akiho, the magic item in your body has been removed, and your damaged soul can slowly recover under the nourishment of your body. Kaito, your plan to come to Tomoeda Town can also be ended. So what are your plans for the future?"

"future……"

Hearing this question, Qiu Sui was stunned. After pondering for a few seconds, she shook her head sadly and said, "I don't know. I used to travel around the world under the arrangement of my family. I don't know what my future will be like..."

Hearing this, Kaito couldn't help but lower his head: "I don't know either. At the beginning, I only wanted to make Miss Qiusui happy, and didn't think about my own future."

"Tsk, they are all stubborn."

Xia Yu looked at the two of them with a look of disappointment, and said as if to remind or guide them: "Then let me put it another way. Where does your tragedy come from, Qiu Sui? Don't you want to change that source?"

"source?"

Qiu Sui was stunned when he heard this. Xia Yu nodded and continued, "What if a child without any magic power appears in your family again? Do you want that child to live your past life?"

"Although this situation is quite rare, it doesn't mean it won't happen again in the future. Don't you want to do something?!"
