Infinite Anime Strategy Guide

Shana's petite body trembled with anger. She felt weak all over whenever she thought about what had happened after she followed Gaia's advice and made a kissing promise with Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was no pushover. Not to mention how much he took advantage of her while she was unconscious, Xia Na, who had taken a long time to even make up her mind to give him a light kiss, was held and kissed by him for who knows how long. Even now, Xia Na's lips are still a little red.

For a pure and proud person, this level of behavior was simply too much, to the point that they couldn't accept it for a while. After Lin Yu regained consciousness, they went berserk and hacked him down countless streets.

"Aha, haha..."

Lin Yu awkwardly scratched the back of his head. Although he usually enjoyed taking advantage of others, he didn't really have the guts to do such intimate things. It was just that after losing consciousness, he instinctively pursued that comfortable experience based on his feelings. As a result, he unknowingly took advantage of a huge amount of money.

Hmm, Lin Yu will probably have trouble sleeping tonight. Just thinking about the wonderful feeling after regaining consciousness makes him laugh in his sleep.

With Lin Yu's reassurance, Shana gradually calmed down, though her small ears were still slightly red, clearly still shy. Lin Yu naturally wouldn't go so far as to tease her further, and breathed a sigh of relief as he looked around at his surroundings.

"Strange, where are we? After Taurus self-destructed, there should have been a huge crater, right? How come the surrounding area seems unaffected?"

At this moment, Lin Yu and Shana were in a forest, surrounded by towering trees. In Lin Yu's memory, the power of Taurus's self-destruction was so great that even the aftershocks were enough to destroy everything within a radius of several thousand meters. However, this place seemed to be unaffected.

"Did we somehow manage to escape this far after our self-destruction in Taurus?"

Lin Yu vaguely remembered that after the self-destruction, he carried Shana and flew away into the distance, but by then Taurus's self-destruction had already occurred, so they shouldn't have been able to fly very far!

"Something is not right."

Shana frowned and looked around. She hadn't paid attention to her location because of her shyness, but as someone who had been fully alert the whole time, she was certain that she was not in the same place where she had fought Taurus earlier.

"Wait, Gaia, I remember you once said that if I made a contract with you, this world would return to its original timeline. What exactly did you mean?"

At the time, the situation was urgent and Shana's attention was entirely focused on Lin Yu, so she didn't pay attention to the meaning of those words. But now it seems that those words have a deeper meaning.

"It means exactly what it says!"

Gaia made a cute little gesture.

"The timeline of this world has been altered by us. Once you and Xiaoyu form a contract, the timeline will be automatically corrected."

"Wait, wait, what are you saying? I don't understand."

Lin Yu was completely bewildered. What timeline? What contract? What the hell happened while he was unconscious?

And upon closer reflection, he realized why he had been kissing Shana so passionately after passing out. He was a gentleman, that's true, but surely he wouldn't reveal his true nature even when unconscious?

"Cough cough."

Shana seemed to recall the situation from just now, and coughed twice, her little face turning rosy.

"Let them explain it."

Gaia bounced in the air. Although its tiny, cicada-wing-like wings were flapping, it insisted on sticking out its little feet and kicking twice, which looked ridiculous no matter how you looked at it.

Yes, it's really cute.

"Xiaoyu, didn't you shield Shana from the energy impact of the Taurus explosion? Because you would enter a period of weakness after the Flame of Sin subsided, you were basically caught off guard when you withstood the impact. To save you, Shana made a contract with you!"

Gaia kept talking and flying around in front of Lin Yu until Lin Yu, unable to bear it any longer, grabbed her wing and finally stopped moving, focusing on explaining to Lin Yu.

"What are the contents of the contract?"

To be honest, Lin Yu was quite excited and eager to know what price Shana had paid. For him, a true lolicon, letting a loli suffer was absolutely heretical, and he couldn't forgive himself for it.

"The result is that she's now your bound equipment, Xiaoyu!"

Shana opened her mouth, ready to stop her, but Gaia spoke the truth first.

"Now, Shana must obey any order Xiaoyu gives, 'any' order!"

Gaia winked playfully, emphasizing the word 'any,' but she didn't show the excitement Lin Yu had imagined.

At this moment, Lin Yu's face showed only guilt and complicated emotions.

"Um, can this contract be dissolved?"

It took Lin Yu a long time to finally manage to utter this sentence.

"unnecessary."

Shana shook her head. She wouldn't say anything like, "Am I not even qualified to make a contract with you?" This seemingly delicate girl was the one who understood Lin Yu the most, so of course she could understand the true meaning behind Lin Yu's words.

He was just worried that she would be wronged!

"I see."

Lin Yu's expression relaxed, revealing a warm smile, but the curve of the smile immediately destroyed that warmth.

"Hehe, how about we have a deeper discussion tonight?"

Lin Yu switched from a touched expression to a gentlemanly face in less than a second. Xia Na was still immersed in their tacit understanding and didn't realize it, so she slipped and almost fell to the ground.

"Xiaoyu!!!"

Shana's sharp cry echoed through the jungle, and from a distance, it even seemed as if crimson flames were emerging. The two were once again enacting a battle royale scenario, but they both knew that such a contract was actually unnecessary.

Gaia sighed and turned her gaze to Alaya.

"I've already said this is just unnecessary."

"Yes, I was wrong. It's time to really make Xiaoyu understand what responsibilities she has."

121. Ability Exchange

"A megalith?"

Lin Yu stared into thought at the stone tablet in the distance, which was made entirely of chromium metal, his expression somewhat grim.

"So the so-called return to the original timeline is just arriving at the time period in the original work. From the perspective of the two previous worlds, this time should be the eve of the start of the story, right?"

Lin Yu turned to Gaia and asked.

“That’s right. After you and Shana made a contract, the world’s timeline returned to its original trajectory.”

Gaia didn't hide anything and simply told the truth.

"Hey Gaia, I remember you mentioned that we got points for killing Gastrea before, right? How many do we have now?"

After their playful antics with Shana, they soon spotted a giant stone monument in the distance. Knowing the plot well, Lin Yu naturally guessed that they had most likely arrived ten years in the future.

Lin Yu was initially relieved when he learned that he had arrived in the dark world of ten years ago, because he quite disliked the setting of this world in the original work and wanted to drop the series several times.

However, due to some reasons from his past, he persisted in watching, but he came to thoroughly loathe this world, or rather, the people in this world.

He and Shana spent more than half a month together ten years ago. In that era when they worked together to fight against the Antiguus, Lin Yu was quite comfortable with three adorable little girls by his side. However, now that he has arrived ten years later, he is finding it hard to control his emotions.

"I hope that stubborn old man, Kikunojo Tendo, can change his ways."

He sighed, putting his jumbled thoughts aside. Before entering the city that he and Shana had personally protected, it was too early to say anything.

"You can get a lot of points!"

Gaia seemed oblivious to everything and continued to laugh as usual.

"Xiaoyu, what would you like to redeem? Let me see, we currently have a total of 5 points!"

Gaia blinked, looking like he'd just randomly picked a number and blurted it out. Lin Yu's lips twitched a couple of times, too lazy to expose the little guy's act, and he asked directly, "Do you have any ability to heal the corruption rate of the Cursed Child?"

"Oh, and it would be best if it could also have the ability to heal others."

As a torchbearer, Lin Yu is basically not injured as long as his head is intact. In the self-destruction of Taurus, he was unable to recover because he was unconscious. In addition, the power core used by Taurus for self-destruction was given by Alaya, which had a significant restraining effect on Lin Yu, so he was brought to the brink of death.

Normally, he doesn't need any treatment; as long as his existence power is sufficient, that's enough. But Shana is different.

Lin Yu squeezed Shana's small hand, which he had somehow clasped together with. He was not afraid of getting hurt, but Shana, as a Flame Haze, could not be like him. If she got hurt, he couldn't just stand by and worry, could he?

"People come to take a look..."

Gaia pretended to close his eyes, looking like he was thinking hard. Even if Lin Yu were out of his mind, he would know that this guy was just trying to act cute.

"Got it! How about Divine Healing?"

Lin Yu barely managed to refrain from criticizing the overused name and asked, "What's its purpose?"

"Just like its name suggests, it can transform your existence into divine power to expel all negative influences from others, possessing super healing abilities. And most importantly, this power only expels negative effects; the advantages of the Gastrea virus will be completely preserved, but you don't have to worry about becoming Gastrea-like!"

Upon hearing Gaia's explanation, Lin Yu was slightly taken aback. Although he was never worried about not being able to exchange for the ability to solve the problem of the Cursed Child's corruption rate, he did not expect that it could be done to this extent. In his original plan, he had already prepared for the Cursed Child to lose all its abilities as the price.

"That's not all!"

Lin Yu was already surprised enough, but he didn't expect this to be the end of it.

"Xiaoyu, aren't you affected by extreme emotions when you use the Flame of Sin? This ability can dispel that negative effect!"

If Lin Yu was surprised before, he is now overjoyed. The boost that the Flame of Sin provides to his strength is obvious, but the inability to control his emotions is also a big problem. If he can use the Flame of Sin in a normal state, it is as if his strength has increased by an unknown percentage!

"Xiaoyu, you must have misunderstood!"

Seeing Lin Yu's expectant look, Gaia smiled sinisterly and immediately poured cold water on him.

"The power of the Flame of Sin is activated by extreme emotions. In other words, if you use a holy healing spell to dispel negative emotions, the Flame of Sin will automatically dissipate."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.

"Isn't this just like an emergency brake?"

Lin Yu pouted in annoyance. Although it had far exceeded his expectations, under Gaia's tempting words, he had even started to fantasize about finally having the ability to force himself on Shana. As a result, his wonderful life was shattered before it even began. How could he not be dejected?

"Oh, you don't want it? Then forget it. I really can't find a suitable ability."

Gaia spread his hands innocently, and Lin Yu immediately gave in. He was just complaining a little, so why make such a blatant threat?

"How many points are needed in total?"

Lin Yu was extremely cautious. He could tell that whatever he wanted to exchange for was entirely up to this little girl. If she gave him 50,001 points for just this one skill, he would be devastated.

"Well, since you had a good attitude, Xiaoyu, I'll charge you 30,000 points. Thanks for your patronage!"

Gaia nodded with a smile, seemingly very satisfied with Lin Yu's attitude. Then, its tiny body flew to Lin Yu's face. It could even touch the little guy in front of it with just a slight shrug.

The little guy pressed his slender arm against Lin Yu's forehead with all his might. The next second, his small body emitted a holy light. Lin Yu suddenly felt as if he had grasped something, and following his feeling, he injected his own power of existence. The same holy light then shone from his body.

"It's warm and cozy, so comfortable."

Shana, holding Lin Yu's hand, narrowed her eyes slightly. The feeling of being bathed in holy light was quite nice.

The light gradually faded, and Lin Yu and Gaia returned to normal.

Lin Yu turned his gaze to the giant stone tablet, his expression turning somewhat cold.

"I hope the people in this world won't disappoint us like they did in the original story."
