Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 320: First Encounter with Ryougi Shiki, Return to the Moon's Restraint
Sakura took out the map, drew the route to Guanbuzi City on it with a red marker, and then handed the map to the boy.

"Brother Broly, remember to bring Sister Taiga back for dinner tonight. Grandpa and I will prepare a sumptuous meal for you at home."

"okay."

Broly was looking forward to the dinner in the evening. He took the map and flew into the air, heading towards Guanbuzi City.

He was moving very fast. Although he didn't go at full speed, he still arrived at the edge of Guanbuzi City, which was more than 500 kilometers away from Fuyuki City, after two minutes.

The figure slowed down in the air, leaving behind circles of contrails, like the traces left by an airplane flying by.

But compared to the contrail left by an airplane, the contrail left by Broly is a little less obvious.

This is because it does not emit a large amount of high-temperature water vapor like an airplane.

"Let me see where to go next..."

Broly took out the map, but soon he discovered the amount of information on the modern city map. The densely packed street names made him feel dizzy. It was a bit difficult to find the right road in the sky. He could only find a landmark building to land on, and then find the way there according to the route on the map on the ground.

"Turn right at Sanhe Street, walk to the ramen restaurant directly opposite, and turn into the side street, but there are two forks here. Which one should I take?"

Broly was trying to find his way around the city with a map, but as he searched, he got lost.

Just when he was in distress, an old man passerby came over and asked him if he needed help.

After learning that the boy was going to look for his wife, the old man passing by had a very strange expression on his face.

But he didn't say anything. He took the map from the boy and started to help him look at it.

"This map is from three years ago. Guanbuzi City has been under reconstruction in recent years, and some routes have changed. It's normal for you to get lost.

You are going to this apartment, right? Then the correct route should be this: from here to here, then take the mountain straight road up along the way..."

The old man passing by seemed to be familiar with the city routes, and he showed Broly a new route with a map.

"Thank you, grandpa."

Broly thanked him politely and hurried on before he forgot his new route.

"If you get lost again, remember to call the police..."

The old man's words were left behind.

Broly's figure quickly shuttled through the city, and because of his fast speed, some passers-by who saw his figure flash by thought they saw a ghost.

Soon, Broly came to a sloping straight road. Fearing that he would miss the intersection, he simply jumped up like a rabbit, covering dozens of meters at a time.

As he was dancing, the sudden message from the Crystal Palace caused Broly's figure to suddenly stop in mid-air.

The boy turned around in the air and looked down, and his empty eyes met with those of the kimono girl who was staring at the sky in a daze on the sloping sidewalk.

[Discovered a new strategy target, Ryougi Shiki, current happiness value is 0]

The 0 at the end soon changed and increased by 1 point.

At the same time, Ryougi Shiki's originally empty eyes suddenly became bright.

The look on his face seemed curious, as if he was wondering why the boy could stay in the air.

The kimono girl's eyes are focused, just like the boy, Kurotori Kan'aya, who is now attracted by her cold and beautiful profile and is standing at the bottom of the ramp and is also staring at the boy intently.

"Hello, I'm Broly."

When Broly met the new target of his strategy who was recognized by the Crystal Palace, he subconsciously did his habitual behavior. He fell from the sky and landed directly in front of the girl in kimono. He raised his head and introduced himself to the girl who followed his gaze and now lowered her head still looking at him.

"Well, I'm Ryougi Shiki."

Ryougi Shiki did not ignore Broly, on the contrary she simply said her name, but that was all. After saying her name, she continued to look at the boy with a somewhat curious look, as if asking what the boy was planning to do by appearing in front of her and introducing himself abruptly?
"Can I ask you a question?"

Broly asked.

"Okay, but I want to ask you a question, too."

Ryougi Shiki nodded.

"no problem."

Broly nodded, paused, and asked bluntly: "Can you be friends with me in exchange for my promise to be my wife?"

Hearing this, Kurohiro Kan'ye, who was not far away, widened his eyes behind his glasses. He felt a little moved by the girl he met by chance, and wanted to take action, but he soon realized that he and the girl were also strangers, so he put off this sudden impulse.

"Being friends with you by promising to become your wife?"

Ryougi Shiki repeated the boy's question and spoke to him.

"Some people are interested in my identity, some are interested in my talents, and some are interested in the appearance of my body, and thus have various desires towards me. But I don't know why you are interested in me?"

After a pause, Ryougi Shiki added, "For most people, I can see through their thoughts at a glance, but you seem to be a little different. I can't see through your thoughts, so can you tell me the real reason?"

"There is no special reason. I am just pursuing happiness. Pursuing your own happiness will also make you happy."

Broly answered honestly.

"happiness?"

Ryougi Shiki's eyes widened slightly. She could understand the literal meaning of happiness, but she could not personally experience the meaning of the objective things that happiness represented.

"Yeah, happiness."

Broly reaffirmed this.

"I can feel that you are not lying, but what are you going to do?"

Ryougi Shiki had never been so curious.

"We become friends, and then you tell me your wish, and I will do my best to help you realize it."

Broly said simply.

Upon hearing this, Ryougi Shiki, or Root Shiki, fell into silence.

As an intelligent being that reached the root and was born from the root, realizing wishes is only a basic ability she possessed when she was born.

The girl in front of him was a genuine wish-making girl. If she was willing to help people realize their wishes, then as long as the wish was not too excessive, such as destroying a planet or destroying the entire human world, she could help realize it.

And now, the lines that she might have said to others were said to her by a boy she had just met.

Even she, at this moment, experienced the feeling of being left speechless like an ordinary person.

"What if I don't have a wish?"

Root Style seldom thinks about problems, but at this moment, she did think about it before asking the question.

"No wishes?"

Broly scratched his head. He had never met a wife who had no desires. After thinking about it carefully, he said to the kimono girl in front of him, "Then when you have a wish, tell me. Then, I will try my best to help you realize it."

"Is that an answer?"

Root curiosity.

"Doesn't it count?"

Broly asked back.

"That's fine, but if I have to say I have a wish, I do have one right now."

The root style suddenly said.

"What wish?"

Broly demanded.

"Happiness, I have never experienced that kind of thing, can you let me experience it?"

Root Tao.

"Eh?"

Broly was stunned.

"If you can't do it, forget it."

Genyuanshiki seemed to know that he was making things difficult for others, so he did not force the boy in front of him to help him realize this wish.

"It's not that I can't do it, but aren't you happy now?"

The happiness value on the Crystal Palace panel is not deceptive. After starting a conversation with this strange wife I met by chance, her happiness value started to rise. It is obvious that the other party can feel happy while talking to me.

"I am in happiness?"

Broly's words confused Root-Shiki a little, but she gradually reacted.

She had always been vain, but suddenly she became interested in what was happening.

Isn’t this kind of interest a feeling that you have never experienced before?

“So, this is what happiness feels like?”

The root type is somewhat vague.

When she came to her senses, she held out her hand to the boy. "Since you have helped me experience the feeling of happiness, I will also let you pursue your own happiness. I am willing to agree to be your wife."

[Ding, Ryougi Shiki requests to join the Crystal Palace, does the host agree? ]

There was nothing false in the other party's thoughts, and Crystal Palace responded to her words.

But Broly decisively chose no, pressed the hand of the kimono girl in front of him back, and said seriously: "Not now, you can't be my wife yet."

"why?"

Gen-shiki asked in a somewhat cold voice, while her happiness value continued to increase.

"Because you don't have enough happiness now. You have to wait until you have enough happiness. Then you can become my wife. This will be good for both you and me."

Root type: "..."

Her emotions went through some ups and downs. She was rejected by the person she cared about many years in advance, and the feeling of slight disappointment made her feel a little strange.

"Okay, so I want to be happier. Can I ask you some questions?"

The root style showed an expression of "I'm curious".

"Okay, then you can ask."

Broly's mind flashed with the strange information about [Chitanda], and he agreed to be questioned by the reservist wife he had just met and became friends with.

"First question, why are Alaya and Gaia a little afraid of you?"

The two major restraining forces are right next to the source. After seeing Broly for the first time, the girl in kimono noticed the two major restraining forces' fear of this boy, which was almost terrifying.

"Who do you think is afraid of me?"

"Alaya and Gaia."

"Who is that?"

“Two major restraining forces.”

"But I don't know him."

Root type: "..."

Looking at the boy with a confused look on his face, I no longer needed his answer.

[Seven years ago, the Holy Grail in Fuyuki City, the falling moon incident...]

The historical information about what happened in this world recorded by the root was pouring into the root-like consciousness, answering her questions.

Let the root type have a general understanding of what the boy in front of him had done in this world, and how the two major inhibitory forces cleaned up the mess afterwards.

Well, the moon was almost shot down by the other party, so the two major restraining forces urgently contacted the second magician, Kisya Zelrich, and then contacted the thousand-year-old princess Elquet Brunstad, fulfilled their promise, divided their forces, and stuffed the other party into the American moon rocket and launched it to the moon, allowing the moon to regain its restraining power and begin to repair itself, which solved the moon crash incident that year.

After that, it is necessary to strengthen the construction of the outer wall of the world to prevent another star-destroying existence from entering this world.

As a result, despite all the precautions, the guy who almost knocked down the moon appeared in this world again for unknown reasons.

After digesting this information, Genyuanshi's cold expression could not hold back: "Then can you tell me how you came to this world again?"

This is the most puzzling thing for the two major inhibitory forces, but they are urging the root type to help figure this out.

"Yes, sure. I spent 1 happiness points and came here through the cross-border portal."

Broly answered honestly.

"1 happiness points, a cross-border portal?"

Genyuanshi thought about it and asked for help.

"Can that cross-world portal ignore the wall that separates this world?"

"what is that?"

Neither of them explained the meaning of the nouns they said, but just from the reactions, the root formula reached a conclusion.

Not to mention that the other party was blocked outside the world, it is possible that the other party did not encounter any obstacles when coming to this world.

Alaya consciousness, Gaia: "..."

"Broly, I have one last question for you."

"You said."

"If I ask you to destroy the planet beneath your feet..."

"I won't do it."

"why?"

"Because there are wives like you on this planet."

Broly answered seriously.

"If you don't have a wife like me and are asked to destroy this planet, can you do it with your strength?"

Root-questioning, although this is what the two major inhibitory forces want to know, she is also somewhat curious about it.

"I can do it, but is it meaningful? Will it make you happy?"

Broly asked.

"Does not."

Gen-shiki shook her head. Although she was indifferent to this world, she did not want to see it destroyed.

Only when the world exists can one have the opportunity to prove whether one's existence is meaningful.

Of course, now it seems to make some sense.

At least, she already felt a sense of happiness.

This feeling is very good, and if you want it to continue, you must keep this world and the planet beneath your feet alive.

"Ryougi Shiki, do you have any other questions?"

At this time, seeing that she stopped talking and the increase in her happiness value stopped, Broly asked.

“Not for now.”

The girl in kimono shook her head.

"Then please leave me your contact information. I'm going to visit my other wives now. When I'm free later, I'll come find you and chat with you."

"it is good."

Genyuanshiki did not refuse. She looked at the paper map in the boy's hand, stretched out her slender white hand, and touched the map with her fingertips.

The appearance of the map changed accordingly, as if it had turned into a magic prop, with two small dots of different colors lighting up on it.

"The green dot is you, and the red dot is me. If you want to find me later, just look at the map. But sometimes I sleep in this body, and the two personalities I created are responsible for controlling this body.

One is named Shi and the other is named Zhi. Shi is feminine and tends to be a female personality, while Zhi is masculine and tends to be a male personality.

The combination of the two is me, Ryougi Shiki. You can also call me Root Shiki. I will leave some impressions of you on them, and the same will be true when you chat with them. "

Ryougi Shiki is a person with multiple personalities born from the bloodline of the Ryougi family, because the original personality has a very vague understanding of its own gender.

When creating another personality, it was not created entirely according to the female personality, but a male personality was also created.

However, her body is truly female.

"Okay, Ryougi Shiki, I'm leaving now. I'll come back to play with you or your other two personalities later."

Broly waved goodbye to the girl in kimono, and Ryougi Shiki also waved with a smile, watching the boy jump away again.

"Hello……"

But when Kuroto Kiryu walked up and tried to talk to her, the kimono girl's attitude suddenly changed.

"Who are you?"

The girl's spoken language became masculine, and seemed to carry an inexplicable feeling of dissatisfaction.

It was clear that the real Ryougi Shiki was already lurking.

The one who controls this body now is Zhi, who has a male self-perceived personality.

And she had no specific memory of what had just happened.

However, she inexplicably felt unhappy in her heart.

"Don't talk to ore (Japanese for men to refer to themselves as I/I), understand?"

This dissatisfaction also made Ori treat Kuroto Mikiya who suddenly spoke to him very badly.

Kuroto Kirito was also persuaded to quit.

If I were to use one sentence to describe his mood at the moment, it would probably be:
[I finally got my heart moved, but before anything even started, I lost so miserably! ? ]
