In the Tokyo area, thanks to the children's efforts, the huge crater created by the explosion has been filled in, and Lin Yu and Shana have returned to their home, which was converted from an abandoned school.

"It's alright, it's alright, there are still fifteen days left, isn't there? That's enough time for us to observe him, and besides..."

A cunning glint flashed in Lin Yu's eyes. There was a reason why he told Cassis that he didn't have much time left so early. He needed to observe the other party in the next two weeks. Directly informing him would make it easier for someone to slip up. Otherwise, if the other party was only cooperating under the threat of his power, then he would inevitably become a hidden danger after Lin Yu left.

The children of the curse are still too young. Even if they get rid of the ironic name of "children of the curse," it's hard to say whether they will fall into new misfortunes. Therefore, the best way is to unite them all together. In addition, they need someone with enough experience to lead them so that they don't go astray. There are many candidates for this leader, such as Rentaro Satomi. However, considering that the other party's personality is too cowardly, Lin Yu must think of other candidates and have someone familiar with him, such as Rentaro Satomi, supervise from the side.

This was Lin Yu's entire plan. In a very limited time, he not only needed to free the children from their status as children of the curse, but also had to consider their future. He didn't have much time left, but there was still a lot to do.

What's the next step?

Shana and Lin Yu were already on the same page, so even though this method was somewhat risky, she still did not choose to object.

"Next, let me think... I'll go see Sei-chan first."

206. Leaving forever?

"Uncle, what exactly do you want to do?"

In the secret conference room of the Holy Palace, the Holy Emperor and a group of high-ranking officials watched Lin Yu's actions in France on the projection screen in front of them. The discussion about Lin Yu's purpose was already in full swing. The Holy Emperor just frowned and watched all this. Tendo Kikunojo stood expressionlessly beside her, but his old but still wise eyes revealed a thoughtful look.

"Wow, it's quite lively here!"

The sudden sound startled almost everyone present; they never imagined that someone could silently break into this highest-security conference room.

"Guards! Guards!"

Immediately, a high-ranking military official shouted loudly, causing a stir throughout the conference room.

"Quiet!"

At this moment, Kikunojo Tendo finally spoke up, and at the same time looked at the source of the voice with a puzzled look. If he remembered correctly, the owner of this voice was in France just a few minutes ago!

"Hey! Grandpa's in good health, and Saint-chan too, your brother's here to see you."

Lin Yu gave the two of them a big smile. The issue of time was a minor matter. As long as he completed everything he had planned step by step, there would definitely be enough time. So there was no use in frowning at this moment. It was better to face it with a smile.

Well, although this smile is a little silly.

"uncle!"

The Holy Emperor, who originally looked like an ice queen, stood up abruptly as soon as she saw Lin Yu.

"Well, I'm quite happy with your reaction, Saint-chan, but can't we change this nickname after ten years? It sounds weird."

Lin Yu's lips twitched twice. Every time he heard this girl, who looked only a few years younger than him, call him "uncle," he felt terrible.

"That's not the point, is it? Uncle, what exactly do you want?"

Normally, the Holy Emperor might have calmed down after Lin Yu spoke, but this time Lin Yu's actions were really too big. Not long ago, he had just wiped out half of the American army, and now he had made such a big commotion. If it were a leader with a weaker ability to withstand it, he would probably have been rushed to the hospital for a heart attack by now. If he was unlucky enough to die, that would be a tragedy.

"Well, calm down, calm down. Of course I have my reasons for doing this, like, Onii-chan, I have a terminal illness or something."

The entire room fell silent as Lin Yu finished speaking. After a moment of stunned silence, the Holy Emperor looked at the man she had once relied on with a cold gaze. She had not forgotten that during the period when the Tokyo area was invaded by Aldebaran, Lin Yu had only acted as a healer, and even for some reason, he had run off to France and caused a ruckus at the most critical moment of the battle.

The battle resulted in heavy losses for the entire Tokyo area, all of which could have been avoided. Although she could understand Lin Yu's actions, it did not diminish her deep resentment towards him.

As for Shana?

Well, from the very beginning, the Holy Emperor placed all the blame on Lin Yu. In her eyes, Xia Na was merely an accomplice, so she wasn't included in the scope of her resentment.

"Ahem, okay, okay, I'll confess, but could you let them go out first?"

Lin Yu glanced around at the many 'high-ranking officials' present. He didn't care about their status; all he wanted to see now were the Holy Emperor and Tendou Kikunojo.

The Holy Emperor continued to look at his uncle with his unwavering gaze until the latter clasped his hands together in a pleading gesture. Only then did the Emperor sigh and dismiss the others.

Kikunojo Tendo was about to turn and leave, but Lin Yu called him back.

"Honestly, Sei-chan used to be so obedient, she would agree to whatever her brother said, how come she's become so naughty after growing up..."

"You've always asked me to call you 'brother' since you were little, but I don't think I've ever answered you even once, have I?"

Well, just one sentence shattered Lin Yu's fragile heart. He really wanted to shout that all fairy tales were lies and that even anime couldn't be trusted these days!

"Ahem, well, actually, I only came here to tell you one thing."

Lin Yu looked at the Holy Emperor with a very serious gaze, but the other party's eyes remained unmoved. The Holy Emperor had already developed a considerable immunity to this uncle, whose acting skills and shamelessness were equally off the charts. She wouldn't easily believe a single punctuation mark from him.

"Your brother and your sister Shana don't have much time left."

This time, Lin Yu looked directly into the eyes of the Holy Emperor. The latter was initially somewhat suspicious, but he panicked after seeing that Lin Yu's gaze was genuine.

"what happened?"

"Fifteen days. After fifteen days, Shana and I will most likely leave this world forever."

Lin Yu's expression was serious. He had left without saying goodbye for ten years, and he didn't want to leave without saying goodbye again. All those stories in TV dramas about not wanting to hurt the other person were lies. Giving the other person a glimmer of hope while letting them suffer was just torture. He couldn't bear to do something so cruel.

"H-How could this be? Uncle, you're joking, right?"

The Holy Emperor's face was somewhat pale, her gaze shifting between Lin Yu and Xia Na. Although Lin Yu and Xia Na's actions during this period were hard for her to accept, they were, after all, people who had formed a bond since childhood, and their feelings for each other were very strong. She even regarded them as family. Now, however, she heard that the family she had been waiting for for ten years would leave forever. Such words were tantamount to announcing her own death!

"Uncle, you and Sister Shana are so powerful, how could you possibly leave forever?!"

Lin Yu shook his head in response. Being so blunt might hurt her feelings, but even Lin Yu himself didn't know what the future held. Giving her a vague hope now was less practical than giving her a surprise when he returned alive.

Even Gaia and Alaya would have to be on high alert in the next world. He couldn't comfort himself that he could return safely. If possible, he wouldn't even want to take Shana and Tina with him. Unfortunately, even if Lin Yu really wanted to do that, not to mention whether Gaia and Alaya would agree, Shana and Tina themselves probably wouldn't agree either.

"It's true, we only have fifteen days left, so..." Lin Yu walked to the Holy Emperor's side and gently stroked her short, snow-white hair. "Can you help your brother in these last fifteen days?"

The Holy Emperor bit her lip tightly. Even Kikunojo Tendo, who had been standing silently beside her, frowned as he scanned Lin Yu and Shana. Just as the Holy Emperor said, he couldn't think of anything in this world that could threaten these two. Even all the Zodiacs combined probably wouldn't be enough!

207. Never give up

"Let's not worry about what happens in fifteen days. The most urgent thing now is to deal with the cursed child. Otherwise, we won't be able to leave in peace."

Lin Yu regretted his words as soon as they left his mouth. Sure enough, the Holy Emperor frowned slightly upon hearing them.

"Leave... Uncle, what exactly do you mean by leaving?"

The Holy Emperor met Lin Yu's serious gaze. Although the latter did not back down, he inwardly wished he could slap himself. Wasn't he just asking for trouble? He had said those words out of spite.

"Ten years ago, after Taurus self-destructed, even though the entire valley was blasted to the ground, everyone thought you had perished with it."

Kikunojo Tendo glanced at Lin Yu, whose lips began to twitch. If it were the Holy Emperor, it would be easier to fool him with a few words, but Kikunojo Tendo, this cunning old fox, was not so easily fooled. Lin Yu had revealed too much information by his own foolishness.

"But ten years later you suddenly reappeared, and you were exactly the same as you were ten years ago."

Kikunojo Tendo's gaze was sharp as a sword. This old man already possessed considerable strength, and his long-standing high position gave him an astonishing aura.

"Such power that almost overturns the world's understanding, and an appearance that hasn't changed in ten years—I had my suspicions back then."

Under the watchful gaze of Kikunojo Tendo, Lin Yu could no longer maintain his silly grin.

"You're not from this world, are you? A parallel world? Or something else?"

Although this world is plagued by Gastrea, its overall technological level is not low. It is normal for some people to propose theories such as parallel worlds. However, these theories are still only at the stage of conjecture, and there is no direct or indirect evidence to prove them. They are purely speculations.

However, if this conjecture is applied to Lin Yu and Xia Na, it reveals an unexpected synergy. Putting aside everything else, their inexplicable strength alone is enough to arouse suspicion. Lin Yu's words were merely a trigger.

Pop, pop, pop!

"I have to say, their imaginations are truly terrifying."

Lin Yu clapped his hands but did not admit it. In his heart, he did not want the Holy Emperor to worry too much. He was just a passerby in this world after all. He could not even control his own future. It was not appropriate for him to be someone else's concern. However, he also knew that he was just making a last-ditch effort. Since the idea had already appeared, it would not be so easy to get rid of it.

"We do not belong to this world."

To Lin Yu's surprise, Shana, who had been silent all along, suddenly revealed his secret. This sentence not only stunned Lin Yu, but also stunned the Holy Emperor and Kikunojo Tendou.

Although they had some guesses, these guesses were so unrealistic that they didn't even know how many of them were true. As a result, Shana actually admitted to such a conjecture that overturned common sense.

“We do indeed come from other worlds, otherwise, what other explanation do you have for the power we possess?”

As she spoke, Shana raised her hand, and the flames of the Crimson Lotus blazed fiercely in her palm.

"Shana, why..."

"Fool!"

Lin Yu was interrupted by Xia Na before he could finish speaking.

"I know what you're thinking, Xiaoyu, but I don't agree with what you're doing this time. Although ruthlessly severing ties can solve many problems, why do you insist that you can never come back?"

Shana's words made Lin Yu pause, and he suddenly realized that his mentality seemed to have a problem.

"Xiaoyu, you're under too much pressure. It's still hard to say what the next world will be like. Everything is still unknown. Besides, don't forget that you were able to enter early. Even if you're weaker than them, couldn't you improve to surpass them during that time?"

Shana's words were incomprehensible to the Holy Emperor and Kikunojo Tendo, but for Lin Yu, they were nothing short of a wake-up call!

After learning that the next world was about to participate in a great war and that there were beings even more powerful than Shana among them, Lin Yu's heart began to waver, and he even instinctively denied the possibility that he could survive to the end.

after all……

That's a battlefield that even Gaia and Alaya have to be on high alert!

If the pressure from other hostile agents wasn't enough to make him lose his last bit of confidence, then the people Gaia and Alaya were what Lin Yu was most worried about.

Lin Yu was good at deducing the outcome from details. Gaia and Alaya's actions and words were enough for him to understand that even they were at a significant disadvantage in this war. Therefore, Lin Yu had not considered the possibility of winning. He was even planning how to keep Shana and Tina alive.

With this mindset, some of his actions actually seem like he's arranging his own funeral, which is why his flaws are exposed.

"Are you giving up before you've even seen the enemy?"

Shana cupped Lin Yu's face in her hands, and they gazed at each other as if no one else was around.

"puff."

Lin Yu couldn't help but laugh first.

"Looks like I've been lectured by you, Shana. Of course, giving up before even seeing the enemy isn't really my style."

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't care about the other battlefields. With Gaia and Alaya holding the fort, he only needed to deal with the chaos of the next world. He didn't need to worry about the affairs between Gaia, Alaya, and the gods. After all, he was at a significant disadvantage in the battles within the world. If he were to get distracted, it would be a recipe for disaster.

"What are you talking about? What enemy? Are you saying that even someone with your strength is no match for us?"

The emperor's heart clenched immediately.

"Does Saint-chan think we're very strong?"

Lin Yu said to the Holy Emperor with a smile.

"Of course!"
