Chapter 74 The truth is revealed

As for now.

The seed of the fantasy tree that Xia Zhi used as a "landing capsule" to bring him to this world...

——It has grown to a very huge size.

——To be precise, it covers an area of several counties.

However, compared to the real grown fantasy tree, it is obviously still a juvenile among juveniles, unable to extend the pruning tools and unable to invade reality.

Moreover, after experiencing two special historical circumstances, which were limited to these three years, it was like time was tied into a knot, but afterwards, the rope became smooth and flat, with no parallel lines and no more intersections.

That is to say...

The soil for the growth of the fantasy tree only exists during these three years.

It didn't exist three years ago, and it won't exist three years later.

In such a situation, even if the seed has tried its best to stand out in this world without competition... it is far from being able to grow normally to the level that can resist the corrections of the world itself.

Originally, Xia Zhi himself felt that there was no hope and was somewhat regretful about it, but he did not expect that there would be a turning point. If he could make good use of it, perhaps he could truly cultivate the fantasy tree.

As long as you can get through this stage——

Then in this world without competition, it will surely grow extremely smoothly, fully mature, and cover the entire surface of the planet...

I have to say that this plan is indeed very tempting and the prospects are indeed very bright.

Xia Zhi is currently acting with this goal in mind. Although he felt that something was wrong with this world at first, there was no spiritual energy, and even the mystery had almost completely faded. He probably didn't have many opportunities...

but now……

If one could control the entire world with the help of the Root of Imagination, then that would be a different matter.

And at this moment——

"Phew! I'm done eating!!"

Putting down the spoon in her hand, Rikka Takanashi said proudly, looking at her appearance, she looked like a general returning triumphantly after a battle. People who didn't know the truth would probably think that eating was a test.

"That's good... Are you still hungry? If you are, wait a little longer."

Xia Zhi looked at the Chuunibyou girl, nodded slightly and said, "It's almost noon, I guess Miss Juhua will bring food again."

"No... no need..." Rikka burped slightly and shook her head quickly. Then, as if she had thought of something, she said, "Hey, have you met the Saint Coordinator of the Invisible Boundary Management Bureau?"

What a weird setting...

That Miss Shihua really worked hard...

Xia Zhi shook his head decisively: "I know her, but she doesn't know me yet... Come to think of it, do you feel the recovery of your magic power?" He didn't intend to discuss such a simple second-year setting, so he went straight to the real thing to distract the other party's attention.

By the way, it also consolidates the credibility of his words and makes the girl trust him even more.

Anyway, it's just a matter of convenience. We just need to strike while the iron is hot to achieve the best persuasive effect. Why not do it?

"Well, it seems not—"

Speaking of magic power, the chuunibyou girl quickly calmed down. She closed her eyes and felt it carefully, with a slightly uncertain tone, trying to express that she felt nothing.

However, the words stopped abruptly as she spoke. She opened her eyes in surprise, and her pupils seemed to be emitting light.

“Wait, wait! I seem to feel it. Is this magic power…”

Unilaterally controlling the magic bond, Xia Zhi accurately replenished the master's magic power. On the surface, he still pretended to be very serious. He seemed to be concerned but actually guided him by asking: "What does it feel like specifically? Can you use it?"

"How do I use it?"

When it comes to this most concerning issue, the chuunibyou girl no longer cares about maintaining her own setting, and pretends to be a senior person, speaking rather urgently.

"This is very simple. Use an imaginary switch to activate it and guide the magic power through your circuit..."

Xia Zhi generously gave some very reliable yet unreliable advice, because this kind of experience cannot be said to be false or wrong, but it has no reference value for Liuhua.

She is essentially just an ordinary person, without any real magic power, and naturally, she does not have such a thing as magic circuits.

But - this is not important.

The important thing is that as long as Xia Zhi makes her believe that she has it and believe it firmly.

Under the young man's patient guidance (deception) (concealment) step by step, Rikka Takanashi excitedly discovered that she was really able to initially control the weak power in her body, although it still seemed very awkward and unskilled.

"biu——"

"biu——"

She raised her fingers, made a pistol gesture, and excitedly fired them back and forth in the air several times.

She could feel the magic power bursting out from her fingertips. Although this invisible force did not seem very strong, and it only made a slight muffled sound when it hit the walls and ceiling, she did not care at all. Instead, she was so happy that she forgot everything else and had a lot of fun.

The fact that she could truly manipulate magic power and produce such an effect was already a fact that surprised her greatly.

It's like a fantasy coming true, the imagined superpower actually appears in oneself. Even if it is very weak, it is exciting enough.

However, despite being extremely excited and agitated, the girl quickly remembered something and used great willpower to suppress the urge to continue. She couldn't waste her magic power like this.

I also need to provide him with magic power to ensure his existence...

"Don't worry, this little magic power is too little to be of any use." Seeing what Rikka Takanashi was thinking, Xia Zhi said with a smile: "After you recover, your magic power will be even stronger, and then it will really come in handy..."

"I understand! I will definitely get better soon!"

Rikka's face was full of seriousness, as if she was taking an oath: "Right, why don't we run away now, and escape from this hospital first... Otherwise, that person will be back soon, and it will be difficult for us to explain clearly then."

She probably understood that the Itomori Town incident was very important, and this person was probably summoned for this reason.

but--

As a student, and school is about to start in two days...

Rikka Takanashi knew very well what was blocking her way, so she changed her mind and decided to just run away right away.

"No, if I really do that, it will be hard for me to explain it clearly..." Xia Zhi waved his hand and stood up. "This matter still needs to be considered in detail. It won't be too late to talk about it after I have investigated it thoroughly. That matter is very troublesome, Master."

He could sense that time was tied up in a knot.

But what exactly is going on and what kind of forces and laws are involved are still unclear.

No matter what, he couldn't just run into it head-on. That would be too reckless and unwise.

Anyway, the knot started on October 10th three years ago, the day when a comet that occurs once in a thousand years descended, and it will continue until October 4th of this year... Students are just about to start school, so time is not that tight.

"But……"

Rikka Takanashi was a little anxious and was about to continue speaking.

Click.

The door to the ward was pushed open.

Miss Juhua, with her hair tied up and wearing a chef's uniform, seemed to have rushed to the hospital without even having time to change her clothes. She walked in with lunch.

The next moment, she stopped, looked towards the bed and frowned.

He was about to ask the question, but the words got stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them.

"...!!"

Her pupils also shrank slightly, because when she looked again, she found that there was no third person in the ward. It seemed that it was just an illusion when she opened the door, and she thought that someone was standing beside her sister's bed.

Am I really too tired? I haven’t slept well since last night…

Miss Shihua exhaled softly and immediately found an explanation for herself.

only……

Seeing her sister sitting on the hospital bed, as if she was talking to someone in the air, she couldn't help but purse her lips. If it were normal times, she would just think that this was another episode of Chuunibyou and take it easy.

But - since last night, I always felt that something was wrong.

For example, when she heard those noises in the room, she had already gone to check, but her sister fainted on the bed, which was totally unreasonable...

And if she thought about it carefully, the light in the living room was obviously not on at the beginning. She remembered it very clearly because she wanted to use it to observe the light through the crack of her sister's door... When she rushed out of the room carrying her sister on her back, the light in the living room was turned on again.

Miss Shihua didn't have time to think about it, and didn't even have time to turn off the lights.

But later, when she hurried home, she found that the lights were off... This made her really doubt whether her memory was confused due to the panic.

As for now——

Looking at her sister, she fell silent. She couldn't tell if it was the posture that gave her a psychological hint, or if there was really something standing by the bed.

At the same time, some horror movie routine also emerged in Miss Shihua's mind.

Could it be...

My sister who has been acting up all the time has really attracted something, right?

And as she moved in with him, that thing also came into the house?

——In a sense, Miss Juhua’s truth is revealed.
