Just as the book was closed, the mushroom giant suddenly froze, its body beginning to disintegrate. At that moment, Xiao Ke pointed at the mushroom man and shouted:
"Sakura, quick! Take back 'Chuangpai' now!"
"Okay, restore you to your original form."
Without hesitation, Kinomoto Sakura flew out, reaching the vicinity of the mushroom giant. She raised her wand and shouted:
"Clow Cards!"
'Ding. '
After the familiar sound effects, the 'Clow Card' returned to Sakura Kinomoto's hands, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, since this was a Clow Card that was not easy to reclaim.
'call out.'
On the other side, Gengo also deactivated his transformation. Standing next to him, Daidouji Tomoyo clearly saw a layer of fine sweat on the boy's forehead. She hurriedly took out a handkerchief and handed it to him, but before that, Gengo had already wiped it off with his sleeve.
"Brother Yuanxiang, does this memory consume a lot of energy?"
Seeing this, Daidouji Tomoyo put away her handkerchief and then asked curiously, "What's wrong?" Gengo patted her head and said softly, "I'm curious."
"Turning the virtual into the real is no easy task, but I have my own reasons for being so tired this time. Such a good target is perfect for testing my limits. Alright, that's settled. You guys really should go to sleep now. School is about to start, and you need to adjust your biological clocks in advance."
"I don't need to adjust my schedule. Even during holidays, my routine is quite regular."
Daidouji Tomoyo playfully retorted to Gengo, but her words made Takamachi Nanoha and Kinomoto Sakura behind her look a little embarrassed. Well, dimensional chat groups are really convenient. When two people who don't really want to sleep get together, time flies by without them noticing.
“Yes, Gensho is right.”
At this moment, Xiao Ke also chimed in, looking at Kinomoto Sakura and saying:
“Sakura, you really need to change your sleep schedule. If you refuse to sleep this time, I'll have Gengo give you a ‘luna’.”
"Don't use this to scare Sakura."
Gengo flicked the back of Kero's head in an annoyed tone, then looked at Kinomoto Sakura and the others, and said softly:
"I won't use my power on you easily, and you're not ordinary people. I believe you can sense the power of 'Luna,' and maybe one day in the future, when you're strong enough, you'll be able to resist the power of this memory."
"Brother Yuanxiang!"
Suddenly, Nanoha Takamachi stepped forward and shouted loudly. The child's face was full of stubbornness as she stared at Genji and said:
"Now that I have power, you should know how powerful the Heart of the Rising Sun is, right, Gensou-nii?"
"Yes, that is indeed an extraordinary magical device."
Yuanxiang nodded in agreement, understanding what the child was thinking, so he continued:
"If we encounter an enemy in the future, I will not object to you going to the front lines to fight them."
"Gale also helped me modify the Heart of the Rising Sun, so it became stronger... huh?"
Nanoha Takamachi, who had already prepared to argue with Gengo, subconsciously began reciting her prepared remarks. However, she suddenly realized something halfway through her sentence and looked at Gengo in surprise. Hearing her words, Gengo also understood something and tapped Nanoha Takamachi's forehead, saying:
"So the beams of light that have been streaking across the sky above Fengdu these past few days were created by you and Jifeng. I thought it was some kind of weirdo, which made me quite nervous."
"Hey hey hey..."
Nanoha Takamachi scratched the back of her head and chuckled sheepishly. During this time, Hayate Yagami and Linfus helped her add the 'Magic Bullet Filling System' to Rising Sun Heart. When she first tested the power of this system, she set the barrier's strength too low, and it was pierced through with a single shot.
"But Yuanxiang-nii, are you really sure you agree? You're so quick to agree, I'm a little uneasy..."
After laughing, Nanoha Takamachi still looked at Genji with some unease. After all, she knew better than anyone how much Genji cared for her, and she couldn't even imagine him allowing her to deal with monsters.
"Do you think that's what I think? If I could, I'd take away your Rising Sun Heart right now."
Feeling the somewhat piercing gaze from Genji, Nanoha Takamachi obediently lowered her head. Genji sighed deeply and said helplessly:
"But this is ultimately your power. It's like trying to stop a flood; it's better to guide than to block. Rather than letting you do things secretly in the dark, it's better to put this out in the open so I can keep an eye on you. Well, the Heart of the Rising Sun is a very powerful thing. If you can completely master it, I think I can feel much more at ease. Even if you unfortunately encounter some thugs from high school or even society, you can easily deal with them. Hmm, hmm, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. You should master that magical device."
As he spoke, Genji began to talk to himself, asking and answering his own questions, clearly trying to convince himself. However, Nanoha Takamachi was somewhat dissatisfied with Genji's explanation. She raised her wand and protested:
"It's not to deal with some thugs. I can handle those bad guys even without the Heart of the Rising Sun. I'm here to help Gensou fight monsters!"
That's the truth. Apart from Momoko Takamachi, the rest of the Takamachi family are all quite strong. Gengo even witnessed Shirou Takamachi cleave bullets with his sword. The three Takamachi siblings he trained are also exceptionally good fighters. At least before they had their own Memory, it's a bit embarrassing to say, but Gengo wasn't always able to consistently overpower Nanoha Takamachi.
"Before I die, you won't be a part of the weirdo."
Gengo tapped Takamachi Nanoha on the forehead, this time with a little force. The little girl couldn't help but cover her forehead in pain, and the seriousness and murderous intent in his words made the others shrink back.
"Now that you possess the Heart of the Rising Sun, let's continue our morning training. Let me see how you're doing now. Just so you know, I'll be serious about this morning training. Even if you cry, I won't soften my heart. Let's go, it's time to go back and rest."
Hearing Gengo's words, Takamachi Nanoha nodded indifferently. She had suffered a lot when she was trained by her father. If this scared her away, Gengo-nii was underestimating her.
"that....."
At that moment, Sakura Kinomoto called out to Gengo, timidly raising her hand as if answering a question in class, and whispered:
"Can I join the training too? I want to get stronger too!"
“Sakura..…”
Daidouji Tomoyo watched her friend's retreating figure and murmured something. Of course, she knew why Kinomoto Sakura wanted to become stronger. Gengo, on the other hand, agreed without hesitation. After all, Sakura was a blank slate, knowing nothing, and was the easiest to train.
And so, the group concluded their mission to retrieve the Clow Cards and returned to the Daidouji residence to prepare for rest. Genji, however, couldn't sleep. Firstly, his body ached terribly, and secondly, whenever he closed his eyes, his mind raced with thoughts of whose memories the ten Rider Passes had erased. He wondered how he should train Nanoha to ensure her safety even without his protection. And what if one day, even this child lost all connection to his past? How would he face her then...?
Oh, right, attitude... expression.
At that moment, Yuanxiang realized a crucial point. He stood in front of the mirror and began to adjust his expression, trying not to make it look so awkward. No matter how worrying other things were, this was the most important thing right now.
"Knock knock knock..."
"Please come in."
The sudden knock on the door made Gengo stop what he was doing and answer softly. The person who entered was none other than Daidouji Tomoyo, who hadn't yet changed into her pajamas. Gengo sat down curiously in a chair and asked softly:
"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"Um... there is something I'm concerned about, Yuanxiang-nii."
Daidouji Tomoyo's words made Gengo stand up abruptly, walk over to her, and say:
"Tell me, what makes you feel uneasy?"
"It's you."
Daidouji Tomoyo frowned slightly, looking at the figure reflected in her eyes, and said softly:
“Brother Yuanxiang, you are the one who makes me uneasy.”
250 Yuanxiang~~~
"I?"
This answer surprised Gensou, who looked up at Daidouji Tomoyo. The child walked over to him, sat down opposite him, and said softly:
"Brother Yuanxiang, were you really going to look for something earlier?"
"I'd like to hear why you think I didn't look for anything."
This wasn't meant to be aggressive; it's just that Daidouji Tomoyo has always been very observant, and Gengo genuinely wanted to hear what she had discovered.
"There are too many, but the most important thing is that I still think that Gensou-nii's current state is too abnormal. Although I don't understand magic or memory, I think I know you quite well. Given your poor condition, I think you wouldn't do anything reckless without a reason. After all, Gensou-nii doesn't want to die right now, does he?"
"...How much has Nanoha told you? No, even Nanoha doesn't really know much about my recent situation."
Seeing Daidouji Tomoyo's worried expression, Gengo looked at her with slight surprise and said softly:
"Or are you trying to trick me again, you little rascal?"
“It was Xiao Ke. When we recaptured the Shadow Card last time, he said that Brother Yuanxiang, your situation was very bad and you could disappear at any time.”
Daidouji Tomoyo also frankly stated:
"And, before you came to my house this afternoon, you spun Nanoha around a few times, but just now when you came back, Nanoha just jumped on you, and I noticed that your movements were a tiny bit off, so... could you lift up your shirt and let me see?"
"If you switch careers and become a detective, I'm afraid I'll be out of a job."
Gengo poured Daidoji Tomoyo a glass of water and said softly:
"No need to lift it up. Indeed, I didn't go looking for anything. I just went back to Fengdu and took care of a quest on the way."
After saying that, Gengo saw the look of displeasure on Daidoji Tomoyo's face and sighed, saying:
"I also dealt with a rather troublesome enemy, but the incident has been perfectly resolved, and I've gained new power. All things considered, this commission was still quite profitable."
"Let me see."
Daidouji Tomoyo ignored Gengo's words and got up to grab Gengo's clothes, but Gengo gently grabbed her wrist halfway through his reach, saying helplessly:
"What's the point of you looking? Just know that I'm injured. After all, I know Ripple. As long as I'm alive and breathing, my injuries will heal sooner or later. Alright, it's getting late. I remember you girls were all crammed into one big bed tonight, right? You've been out for quite a while now. Those kids must be worried about why you haven't gone back yet."
Hearing these words telling her to leave, Daidouji Tomoyo raised an eyebrow, sat back down, picked up her teacup, and calmly said:
"Brother Gensou, if you don't tell the truth, I'm going to tell Nanoha and the others about this."
Then....
Daidoji Tomoyo saw Gensou leisurely pick up his teacup and say with a light laugh:
"I don't think you'd tell Sakura and the others about this, making them worry. It's okay, it's not a big problem for me. Just give me some time. Go to sleep, we still have to go somewhere else to play tomorrow."
As Gengo spoke, he gently nudged Daidoji Tomoyo, saying:
"Just put this matter aside, go back and get a good night's sleep, and everything will be fine. Goodnight."
"Well......"
Daidouji Tomoyo glanced at Gengo with some dissatisfaction, but did not dwell on the matter further to avoid causing Gengo more trouble. After the child left, Gengo continued to practice his facial expressions in front of the mirror. This kind of practice did not take much time, after all, Gengo was a detective by training, and with his excellent physical abilities, he only needed to determine the angle of his facial muscles in front of the mirror.
Even after finishing his practice, Genji still wasn't very sleepy. Besides the worries he mentioned earlier, the cracks on his body would sting when he lay in bed. He hadn't paid much attention to them before, but after Daidouji Tomoyo mentioned them, he couldn't help but notice them, which made him not want to lie down in bed at all.
Since that's the case, let's find something to do.
Gensou ate something quick to fill his stomach, then opened the window and flew away, sneaking quietly to the door of Kinomoto Sakura's house. After making sure no one was looking out, he opened the door and returned to the office. He then headed to Barbara's world. Although dealing with Ying's matter shouldn't be too troublesome, if she continued to shout randomly and Zhongli and the others misunderstood something, it would be quite troublesome to explain.
Soon, Gensou appeared in Liyue Harbor. He found the location of the Hall of Rebirth, stood at the door, grasped the 'Joker', and slightly unleashed some of its power. Zhongli, dressed in casual clothes, appeared in front of him.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Zhongli smiled calmly at Yuanxiang and said:
"I think I know what you're here for. Ying is currently exploring Guili Plain, and she's probably staying at Wangshu Inn. You can go there to find her. Haha, old friend, after you see her, why not have a chat first? Don't be in a hurry to refuse... Hmm?"
Zhongli looked at the hand that had been placed on his shoulder and interrupted him, and said to Yuanxiang with a smile:
