A crossover anime, where people are in Classroom of the Imaginary Era, and behind the scenes, the ki

"Since the scores are so close now..."

Su Wei lowered his hand and glanced at everyone present. "Then let them rely on their own abilities and see what fate has in store for them."

Honami Ichinose opened her mouth as if to refute, but ultimately fell silent.

She turned her head, looked at Wang Cang Mazi who was staring at her with worried eyes, and then looked at her classmates from other classes, her eyes filled with struggle.

Looking around and confirming that Ryuen Sho and Yamada Albert had been killed in action, Ibuki Mio gritted her teeth and took a step forward.

"You mean, neither of you are planning to get involved, right?"

Sakayanagi Arisu chuckled and kindly pointed behind Ibuki Mio.

There, Katsuragi Kohei, Kanzaki Ryuji, and others had already quietly begun their journey.

"If we don't hurry, someone might jump the gun!"

Sakayanagi Arisu said leisurely, "The classes that Suwei and Ichinose are in already have an advantage in scores, so they have no need to resort to cheating methods that would give others grounds for criticism and interfere with the competition, right?"

Ibuki Mio's face darkened, and she turned and ran wildly towards her own base without looking back.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka exchanged a glance with Koenji Rokusuke and Matsushita Chiaki.

"Then let's proceed according to plan."

Ayanokouji spoke up.

Koenji flicked his bangs: "Hmm... I wish you all good luck in your martial arts endeavors!"

After saying this, the four of them dispersed and left in four different directions.

As the surroundings suddenly became empty, Ichinose Honami frowned slightly, her lips pursed and then relaxed, as if repeatedly confirming whether her inaction was the right thing to do.

Su Wei ignored Ichinose's conflicted expression.

He walked straight to a wooden railing above a container area overlooking the sea and stood there.

Quietly watching the time tick by in the sky.

With his current senses, he could even faintly hear the suppressed breaths of Chihiro Shiraha, who was hiding in the crevices of the rocks below and soaking in the seawater.

Maintaining a composed expression, Su Wei spoke casually:

"With these rules, there are five minutes left. Now, it's up to us to see who can withstand the pressure and get to the other teams' bases first."

Sakayanagi Arisu, arm in arm with Kamuro Masumi, strolled slowly to Suwei's side, the sea breeze ruffling her silvery-white hair.

Aren't you worried that your class will lose?

"Of course I'm worried."

Su Wei remained unfazed. "But this is their competition. Whether they win or lose, it shouldn't be decided by us outsiders... After all, it concerns their life or death."

Masumi Kamuro nodded in deep agreement from the side:

"That's right, everyone should respect other people's choices, because no one can take on the burden of someone else's life."

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes suddenly lit up:

"Wow...wait a minute! Was what I just said really philosophical? Did it have that 'seeing through the world' vibe?!"

At this moment, Karuizawa Megumi and Amakura Asako, who had been silently watching Ichinose, finally couldn't bear to see her silent and self-reproachful appearance any longer.

They gently took Ichinose's hand, and, facing the cool sea breeze, carefully comforted her:

"Ichinose-san, it's okay."

"You've already tried your best. This is the rule that the school and the Black Ball have set for certain death; no matter what we do, we can't truly prevent everyone from getting hurt."

Karuizawa Megumi's eyes dimmed slightly, as if she had remembered something:

"Perhaps one day, we will be like Bai Bo..."

"I know."

Ichinose took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the vulnerability in her eyes. "I just... don't know what to do."

Su Wei added:

"Didn't Ichinose say she planned to 'try it for a lifetime'? How come she's at a loss so quickly?"

Upon hearing this, Sakayanagi Arisu's gaze shifted back and forth between Su Wei and Ichinose, her expression becoming subtle.

'Trying it for a lifetime?'

It seems something quite unusual happened between these two when they were practicing swordsmanship on the rooftop.

Kamuro Masumi helplessly tugged at her arm, trying to get her to behave a little.

In return, he received a glare from Sakayanagi Arisu.

'You have no respect for elders, can't you tell the difference between kings and queens?'

Ichinose was unaware of Sakayanagi's gossipy nature.

She looked up at the cold numbers in the sky and replied bitterly:

"Senior... the black sphere does indeed possess the miracle of resurrecting the dead. However, I'm truly afraid..."
