Infinite Anime Strategy Guide

He gently squeezed Shana's hand. He liked to squeeze her hand like this whenever their hands were clasped together. He liked the feeling of their hands being held together.

“I was young and didn’t understand much at the time. I only vaguely heard my father arguing with his superior on the phone, but I didn’t dare to listen carefully. It wasn’t until later that I found out that they were arguing about a case.”

Lin Yu's smile turned somewhat bitter.

"My father's superiors ordered him to stop all investigations, but he didn't listen. We are father and son, and we are both so stubborn. Once we've made up our minds, nothing can change our minds."

"When he finally smiled again, I was so happy I didn't know how to celebrate. So I used my pocket money to buy materials and ran to my friend's house. I spent a whole day making the clay figures I learned in craft class. It wasn't until dark that I finally finished making our family of three."

Lin Yu smiled warmly. It was the first time he had ever been so serious about completing a task that he had even lost track of time.

"But when I got home, it was pitch black. No matter how I called, no one answered. I was terrified, afraid that I would make my parents worry because I had forgotten the time."

"I suddenly noticed the door was open, so I went inside. 'Plop!' Why is there water on the floor? And why is the water red...?"

[Ugh, God knows why it turned out like this while I was writing. My head was completely blank during that chapter this afternoon. I didn't intend to explain it so directly, but I dug a hole and buried myself in it... Ahem, if you don't like it, please skip it. It's a complete failure...]

138. Kisara's Reunion with the Holy Emperor

“When I found my parents lying in a pool of blood, I was completely stunned. My cries attracted the neighbors and they called the police. But I saw something unusual in the eyes of my father’s former colleagues, so I left alone. Just as I imagined, no one would care about the life or death of a ten-year-old boy. Perhaps in their eyes, I had already died in some corner.”

Lin Yu sneered: "I don't know how I survived that time. I've almost completely lost my memories of that period. I only remember killing people, and killing a lot of people."

"In my opinion, they all deserved to die, so I had no psychological barrier to killing them. I only felt a sense of revenge. Ironically, when I broke into my father's boss's house, I found the materials he had tried to use to threaten high-ranking officials. The contents were terrifyingly detailed. I finally realized that my father had gotten himself killed because he had gotten involved in a case involving high-ranking officials and refused to let it go."

“According to that list, there were 65 people involved. I spent three years taking revenge, and I didn’t let a single one of them go. They all died at my hands.”

Lin Yu's face was expressionless as he spoke, revealing neither joy nor sorrow, nor any other complex emotion.

"Looking back on those experiences now, it's like they're someone else's memories."

"That's why you killed those two policemen."

Rentaro Satomi's expression was somewhat complicated. He had always thought that his fate was quite bumpy, but compared to Lin Yu, he seemed to be lucky? At least he had someone to adopt him and he also had a peer like Kisara to keep him company.

Not entirely.

Lin Yu understood what Rentaro Satomi meant.

"This is also one of the reasons why I hate you. You still have sympathy for those two scumbags, but you can let a little girl who begs for help in front of you be kidnapped."

Lin Yu's gaze toward Satomi Rentaro turned hostile again, and every time he thought of this, he wanted to punch him.

"Alright, Xia Shi, don't overthink it. As long as the people you kill don't go against your conscience, that's fine. As for this time, you were just following orders. Even if you hadn't made a move, that guy from Jian wouldn't have shown any mercy."

Lin Yu didn't go into too much detail about his past. As he himself said, the past is the past, and he only looks at the present and the future.

"Let's go, it's about time..."

Just as Lin Yu was speaking, the voice of Yi Xiong Jiangjian came through Xia Shi's communication device.

'Hey, if you're still alive, answer me now!'

"Hmm, looks like the timing is just right."

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow; his plan was about to begin.

'Xia Shi, good news! I found that masked bastard!'

……

"What, are you all coming along too?"

Lin Yu looked at Rentaro Satomi with a half-smile.

"I still have some concerns about Mr. Lin Yu."

Rentaro Satomi was honest; he wasn't afraid that Lin Yu might kill him if he was in a bad mood.

"Fine, it doesn't matter if you come along, it won't make any difference anyway."

The seemingly pointed remark made Rentaro Satomi frown. Just as he was about to ask something, he noticed that Lin Yu had already walked up to Xia Shi's side.

"Mr. Lin Yu, do you know what that is?"

Upon noticing Lin Yu approaching, Xia Shi turned his gaze to the other side, where a huge man-made object was not far away.

"The Heavenly Ladder?"

Although the Heavenly Ladder had not yet been built when he fought Taurus ten years ago, he still managed to utter the name based on his memories from the original story.

"The symbol of weapons of rage, the symbol of hatred of the 'dispossessed generation,' is the revival that is currently underway in this generation truly the right thing to do?"

Xia Shi's intelligence is far superior to that of ordinary people. Although she is in this world and has no other worlds to refer to, she still senses the hidden errors.

"Of course it's wrong."

Lin Yu answered without the slightest hesitation.

"Don't worry, I will soon change this world with my own hands."

Upon hearing his words, Rentaro Satomi immediately became alert. He knew very well that Lin Yu was not as absolutely 'righteous' as the rumors suggested. Sometimes he even wondered if Lin Yu would really not be an enemy of all mankind.

As they pondered, the group reached the edge of a cliff, below which lay an abandoned urban complex.

"The culprit behind this commotion is down there. So, Rentaro Satomi, want to go down and take a look? If we can retrieve the Seven Stars' relics in time, we can prevent Stage V from arriving!"

Lin Yu smiled and looked at Satomi Rentaro, knowing that the latter would only have one choice.

"What do you mean? Aren't you going down?"

With a slight frown, Rentaro Satomi was increasingly unable to understand what Lin Yu was trying to do.

"You and Yanzhu go down. We'll stay here to cover our retreat. Xia Shi, you think so too, right?"

Lin Yu turned his gaze to Xia Shi, who paused slightly but nodded. In the jungle behind them, pairs of crimson eyes had appeared.

"I said I wouldn't help deal with Hiruko Kagetane. Whether you can stop him from summoning Stage V is all up to you."

Although Lin Yu said that, Satomi Rentaro was still somewhat hesitant, because in his heart it seemed that Lin Yu's side was more worthy of attention. It was still hard to say whether Stage V would appear, but the one in front of him was an existence even more terrifying than Stage V!

"Stop being so indecisive, get down!"

As Rentaro Satomi was deep in thought, Lin Yu suddenly pushed him from behind with such force that he could hardly resist and fell straight down the cliff.

"Ah, Rentaro!"

Yeonju didn't even have time to glare at Lin Yu before jumping down.

"Alright, let's wait for the show to begin."

Xia Shi seemed to have noticed something in Lin Yu's smiling face, but said nothing. He simply aimed his gun at the charging Gastrea, but before that, ice crystals that had appeared in the air had already crashed down...

"Is this the strongest human who killed the universally acknowledged strongest Stage V ten years ago?"

In a secret meeting room at the Seijuro (Imperial Residence), the highest-ranking officials in the Tokyo area, including the Emperor and Kikunojo Tendo, were gathered, though the number was much smaller than it had been ten years ago.

"Uncle's strength is still as great as ever, but..."

The Holy Emperor did not say what came next. Having some understanding of Lin Yu, she had already realized that Lin Yu had other plans, but she did not know what he wanted to do.

"Why didn't Lin Yu stop that masked man? If he had intervened, wouldn't everything have been resolved?"

A high-ranking military official said this as if it were perfectly natural.

“My brother always acts according to his own will.”

The conference room door suddenly opened, and Kisara, dressed in a black sailor uniform, walked in.

"If you want to order him around, you'd better give up on that idea."

Glancing at the official who had spoken, Kisara walked straight to the Holy Emperor. After being separated for ten years, they finally reunited at this moment...

139. The feeling of flying

"Kigami".

Kikunojo Tendo glanced at his granddaughter, showing no regard for her as a relative, as if she were some irrelevant person who shouldn't be there.

"I asked her to come." The Holy Emperor turned to look at Kisaragi: "Long time no see."

"Ah, it would be better if we didn't meet."

It was hard to imagine that Kisara would say such heartless words. The Emperor's expression remained unchanged, but he felt a slight pang in his heart.

The two of them used to be best friends, but ever since Lin Yu and Xia Na disappeared after their self-destruction in Taurus, they have completely broken off their friendship.

The reason is simple: in Kisara’s view, the Holy Emperor’s indifference was like that of a traitor!

She could not forget that ten years ago, when Lin Yu's fate was unknown, the highest ruler of the Tokyo area still left with a calm demeanor.

No aid, no search, nothing was done.

Lin Yu and Xia Na were in danger because of the Tokyo area, but the Tokyo area only cared about its own safety and did nothing after they went missing.

Kisara attributed all of this to the Holy Emperor. From that moment on, the two embarked on different paths: one constantly honed his swordsmanship, while the other went further and further down the path of becoming a ruler.

The Holy Emperor once wanted to meet with Mu Geng again, and even hoped that she could help him, but by then Mu Geng had already stopped even looking for her.

As a child, Kisara only saw the surface. She had no idea that the Emperor's sadness was no less than hers. However, the six-year-old Kisara could not understand. As the two grew up, they began to get used to this distance, which has continued to this day.

"My brother's strength is still so great."

Watching the scene on the screen that could almost be described as a massacre, Kisara smiled. When she was a child, she used to pester Lin Yu to teach her how to fight, but unfortunately, although Lin Yu made a promise, he was ultimately unable to keep it.

"It seems we don't need to worry about Uncle anymore. I doubt there are any Gastrea that can threaten him and Shana. Let's switch to Satomi's scene. It seems the key to stopping Hiruko Kagetane lies with him."

The scene on the screen changed instantly, and at that moment, Rentaro Satomi was standing in front of Kagetane Hiruko!

"Kisara, what do you think of Satomi's chances of winning?"

Although Mu Geng's attitude was indifferent, now that Lin Yu and Shana had returned, the Holy Emperor had enough reason to believe that the two could reconcile. At least the fact that she was standing here now already said a great deal.

"If I could add my personal expectations, I think we would definitely win!"

It has to be said that having grown up with Rentaro Satomi since childhood, Kisara has a lot of confidence in him.

"What? The other party is a survivor of the 'New Human Creation Project'! How could they possibly have a chance of winning!"

A senior military officer with a full head of white hair immediately raised an objection.

"Ten years ago, Gastrea invaded my home and killed my father and mother. Due to the severe damage at that time, my kidney function basically stopped."

Even with Lin Yu and Shana's intrusion, Kisara's fate remained unchanged. Lin Yu never imagined he would suddenly arrive ten years in the future, so he didn't make any arrangements. Therefore, under the influence of the world, Kisara's fate did not change.
