"Sigh, you don't need to feel guilty. Although you did kill people, they could only die."
"What...does that mean?" Kurumi Tokisaki asked, bewildered.
“They’re not like you, incompatible with the spirit crystals, and turned into that state, only to wait for death… You did the right thing, preventing them from harming society and freeing them from suffering.” Shichen released Tokisaki Kurumi’s hand, placed it on her head, and explained.
"How could this be..." Kurumi Tokisaki shook her head in disbelief. She felt that Tokimitsu was just comforting her, making excuses for her, after all...
"Has Sawa returned to normal?"
"Sahe recovered because of my abilities. Without me, it would have been impossible for them to turn back. If you say that, then it's my fault for not saving them in time."
"No! It has nothing to do with you, it's my fault! If I hadn't killed them, your appearance could have saved them..."
"I won't save them," Shi Chen suddenly interrupted her, her tone indifferent.
"Huh?" Tokisaki Kurumi was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
“I’m not like you, a righteous person. If I encounter them, that’s fine, but if I don’t, I won’t deliberately save them,” Shi Chen said calmly.
Not to mention, they were the subjects of the initial sprite experiments.
To put it bluntly, without these test subjects, Kotori Itsuka and the others wouldn't have become spirits unscathed.
"How could this be...why?" Kurumi Tokisaki shook her head in disbelief.
"It's very simple, they have nothing to do with me."
"It doesn't matter?"
"I will only help people I have a connection with. As for strangers, I can only leave it to fate," Shi Chen said nonchalantly.
"Stranger...then what about us and you?"
“You are not strangers.”
"Just because we've met twice?"
"How can it be."
"Speaking of which, Mr. Shi just called Kurumi 'San-san' as if they were very familiar with each other. What's going on?" Yamada Sawa asked, remembering something.
Kurumi Tokisaki also looked at him, her eyes questioning.
"Okay, actually, I am your future husband."
"Huh--!"
"..."
Sawa Yamada was surprised, and Kurumi Tokisaki was stunned.
"Really? Is it true?" Sawa Yamada asked hurriedly.
"I wouldn't lie to you, I really am from the future," Shi Chen said with a smile.
“The future…” Sanda Saho’s eyes lit up.
"You said you're our future husband? 'We'?" Kurumi Tokisaki asked with a strange expression, emphasizing the question.
"Ah! We can't be..." Sawaya Yamada realized.
"Well, I won't say more. You'll understand in the future." Shi Chen didn't intend to elaborate.
"Eh? Mr. Shi, please tell me~ I'm very curious." Sawa Yamada suddenly became affectionate, hugging his arm and shaking it playfully.
If the time given was false, she could take it as true; repaying a life-saving debt with her body would not be excessive.
If it's true, then there's even less of a problem.
“No, that won’t do. It can’t be said, it can’t be said.” Shi Chen shook his head firmly.
"Why is this happening~"
"You're not lying to us, are you?" Tokisaki Kurumi still didn't believe it.
"Are you even aware of your own abilities?" Shi Chen retorted.
"I... understand." Kurumi Tokisaki hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Since that's the case, you should understand the existence of time, right? Then look at me again. Am I someone who should exist in this time?"
"you......"
Kurumi Tokisaki could indeed see the time fluctuations on Tokimura's body; they were extremely incongruous and shouldn't exist here.
Her abilities allowed her to easily understand the reasons.
But this power has now left her bewildered.
"Do I really deserve this power?" she murmured to herself.
"It's already yours." Shi Chen smiled slightly and rubbed her head.
"Eh?"
"Just consider it her compensation to you. Didn't you want to use this power to do something? Punishing evil and upholding justice requires this kind of power."
"But I..."
"There are no 'buts'. This power is destined to be yours. You can do whatever you want—do bad things, do good things, protect your friends."
"Protect..." Kurumi Tokisaki looked at Sawa Yamada.
"San San, don't worry about it. Isn't this great? Like a magical girl." Sawa Yamada teased with a smile.
"Magical Girl... Why are you calling me that too?" Kurumi Tokisaki was a little embarrassed.
"I think this title is quite good."
"Um...you're not mad at me?" Kurumi Tokisaki couldn't help but ask.
"Blame you? Blame you for what?"
"I almost..."
"Didn't you say there was nothing? Besides, you didn't even know it was me, so you didn't hurt me at all," said Sanda Saeko nonchalantly.
"That's because of Mr. Shi's appearance..."
"Anyway, that's how it turned out. Isn't he our future husband? It's only right that he saved us."
"Shi...you adapted way too fast, didn't you? What if what he said was a lie?"
"Shi Ke has no reason to lie to us. He's so capable; if he were interested in us, he wouldn't say things like that, would he?"
"That's what they say... but he said it's for both of us..." Tokisaki Kurumi pursed her lips, feeling a bit absurd.
Two husbands? How could that be?
"I think it's great, it means that San San and I will always be together."
"What...what are you thinking?" Kurumi Tokisaki asked irritably.
"Haha~ San San is finally back to normal~"
“Saya and you…”
"That's it. Don't overthink it. Just make things better in the future," said Sawa Yamada gently, looking at her tenderly.
"You... never mind, I don't care anymore!"
"This is right~"
"You've come to your senses?" Shichen smiled as he looked at Tokisaki Kurumi.
"It's hard to believe whether you want to or not, Sawa is so oblivious," Kurumi Tokisaki said helplessly.
"It's good to be open-minded. From now on, just do what you want to do. With this strength, you'll be able to do it."
"May I?"
"Of course, I give you permission."
"What exactly is your relationship with her?"
Kurumi Tokisaki was asking about the original spirit, of course. She hated her terribly now, for deceiving her and almost causing her to kill her friend.
Even if the other party saved her, it wouldn't matter.
"Her and I... we must have a deep connection," Shi Chen replied after thinking for a moment.
"origin?"
Chapter 655 Sawa Yamada's Kiss
"Just ignore her. You can't beat her. I'll make sure you get your revenge later," Shi Chen advised, changing the subject.
Unfortunately, he hasn't tried to find out the original reason, and even if he knows a little bit about it, he's not sure.
"But she lied to me, and almost made me get Sawa into trouble..."
“I’m fine, aren’t I?” Sanda Sawa immediately stood up straight and said.
That's because sometimes it is.
"I told you not to worry about her."
"But......"
"So you're this vengeful, San San?" Shi Chen laughed.
"of course."
"Alright, I promise you, I'll make sure you get your revenge someday."
"after......"
"Your power was given to you by someone else. Do you think you can beat her?" Shi Chen asked, reminding him.
"I......"
Kurumi Tokisaki isn't stupid; of course she knows she can't win, but she just can't swallow her pride.
"Then trust your future husband, okay? I'll definitely make you get your revenge."
"Future husband... um." Tokisaki Kurumi was a little shy.
