"But in the end, Yuki suddenly disobeyed my orders and charged into the enemy lines to continue killing. On the surface, it seemed that Yuki decided to sacrifice herself to cover our escape and then use her last strength to help us annihilate the enemy."

"But in reality..."

Artoria's voice was serious, then turned into a sigh as she said, "I think it's more like Yuuki committed suicide."

Mo Mo froze, his eyes widening, and asked, "Suicide?"

Momo couldn't understand at first, but as Artoria explained, Momo roughly understood where Artoria's idea came from.

"Everyone knows that you are going to Gensokyo, and no one objects because you can summon everyone whenever you need them, and it is also your duty to bring Reimu back."

“Only Yuki needs special attention.”

"Ever since Momo's accident, Yuki has had a gloomy expression, as if she has turned into an iceberg. She has also become unusually stern. Apart from our own people, almost no officer or soldier in the camp dares to look her in the eye."

"Of course, this is also related to the fact that they were terrified of Yuki."

Artoria continued, "However, Momo, don't forget, what are you to Yuki, and what does she consider to be yours?"

“Yuki… is my sword. She is willing to be my sword, to protect me forever, and to cut down the enemies before me.”

Mo Mo answered softly, and that sentence already explained why Konno Yuuki committed suicide.

How could a sword not return to its master?

If the master forgets, then the loyal sword must return to the master on its own.

Unless the sword's power is no longer of use to its master, the only fate awaiting the sword is to be abandoned.

“I also bear some responsibility for this. After hearing that you were safe, Yuuki finally smiled. After learning that you planned to enter Gensokyo, Yuuki became even more proactive and her face was full of energy.”

"I originally thought she wanted to finish the mission quickly and then return to Valhalla to meet you, Momo. But it turns out I was too naive, and Yuki's actions were too drastic."

"This demonstrates her loyalty and affection for you, which fills me with profound respect. However, Momo..."

Artoria's voice carried a hint of worry as she said, "Let Yuki's feelings find their home! Otherwise, once Yuki truly becomes a sword and loses her human emotions, perhaps you, Momo, will have an invincible sword in your hand, but we will lose a sister."

After Artoria finished speaking, she laughed again and said, "Momo, I hope that when we meet next time, I will see Yuki truly join us. Don't let Yuki's feelings be based on your previous fragile facade, otherwise Yuki will really have problems."

"Big brother, it's been so long!"

Just then, a cheerful voice came from afar, and a beautiful figure flew in from the sky, her long, beautiful purple hair fluttering in the wind, attracting Mo Mo's attention.

The person who arrived was none other than Konno Yuuki, and it was quite obvious that Konno Yuuki had also undergone a semi-quantum body modification, and flight had become a skill she could use proficiently.

"It seems Yuki has arrived. So she really can't wait to see you? Momo, can you tell me what you plan to do?"

"What should I do..."

Konno Muneki landed in front of Mo Mo, raised her head, and stared straight at Mo Mo with her amethyst-like eyes, as if she wanted to take in everything about Mo Mo.

She was still smiling, seemingly laughing without a care in the world, and said, "Um, big brother, Yuuki is so useless, she just died by accident, haha!"

"Sister Artoria must be angry, and big brother, you must be angry too, right? After all, Yuuki's sword, which is supposed to be big brother's, has been useless time and time again. Yuuki really shouldn't have done that!"

"So, big brother, please punish Yuuki! Any punishment will do! As long as... as long as big brother doesn't dislike Yuuki, Yuuki will definitely become stronger, stronger and stronger, and will definitely protect big brother..."

Konno Yuuki was talking to herself, her speech becoming increasingly rapid. The smile on her lips made it seem as if she was chatting with Mo Mo, but the mist that gradually rose in her darting eyes truly revealed the girl's emotions at that moment.

Regret, fear, worry, self-blame...

Countless negative emotions were gnawing at her heart, but she still tried to act as usual, probably because she was also afraid that if she put on a lost and helpless look, it would make Mo Mo hate and loathe her even more.

"Artoria, I've made up my mind. I've decided on the punishment for Yuuki."

Momo spoke directly to Artoria, making a sound that abruptly stopped Konno Yuuki in her tracks, causing her pupils to contract. Perhaps it was only then that Konno Yuuki realized that Momo was actually talking to Artoria?

What are they... saying?

It's probably... because of her failure. As expected, she's useless and will be disliked by her older brother?

"I'm all ears, Mo Mo."

Artoria responded to Momo, a knowing smile playing on her lips as she stood in the IS world, dressed in military uniform.

"I...I'm listening too, big brother. I accept the punishment, I'll accept any punishment, so big brother, please don't..."

Konno Mianqi muttered to herself, seemingly having lost the courage to face Mo Mo, and lowered her head trembling.

"Yuki, listen."

"I'm here!"

Facing the bowed head of Yuki, Momo gently took Konno Yuuki's hand and held her slightly cold hand tightly in his palm.

How could a hand that can become an invincible swordsman by picking up a sword possibly tremble because of boredom?

"My punishment for you is that you can never let go of my hand without my permission."

"……well?"

025 This is...where?

"this!"

Konno Muku stared in astonishment at Mo Mo holding her hand, seemingly not quite understanding what was happening. She instinctively tried to struggle, but Mo Mo's strength was considerable.

Of course, Konno Yuuki could try using the power of the semi-quantum body she had just acquired. Such an instantaneous burst of B-level power would be enough for Konno Yuuki to unleash a burst of several tons or even tens of tons of force to shake off Momo's hand.

But... why would she do that?

After the subconscious act of resistance, Konno Yuuki's hand seemed to lose its original strength, and even the enhancement of the semi-quantum body had no effect.

Mo Mo's warmth seemed to melt and heal everything, instantly eliminating many of the negative emotions in Konno Muyuki's heart, and even calming her gaze.

"Big brother..."

Konno Yuuki looked at Mo Mo, at the smile on Mo Mo's face, and suddenly felt a flutter she had never experienced before. She, who had always hoped to remain Mo Mo's sword forever, suddenly felt that this change was quite nice, and very attractive to her.

"Big brother, this is not punishment."

However, Konno Yuuki still managed to say those words: she had made a mistake and shouldn't be let off so easily.

Konno Yuuki seemed to have completely regained her composure. The fake smile that shouldn't have appeared on her face had disappeared, and her smile had become much wider, just a small curve at the corner of her mouth. But this smile released an inexplicable joy in Konno Yuuki's heart.

It seems that holding hands with Momo can fill her with endless joy.

“Yuki… did not do well, and big brother needs to punish Yuki. Moreover, as big brother’s sword, Yuki needs to protect big brother. If big brother keeps holding me like this, how can Yuki protect big brother?”

Konno Yuuki spoke these words with great sincerity, because she genuinely had such concerns. However, contrary to her rational words, her fingers trembled slightly, as if her body instinctively tried to stay closer to Momo and tighten its grip on Momo's hand.

No, you're wrong.

Mo Mo didn't give Konno Mukuji a chance to struggle, saying, "You've said it yourself, you are my sword. As a sword, you must be held in my hand, right?"

"And you not only have to be held in my hand, but also have to be by my side at all times, and we can't be apart for even a second."

"After all, I might encounter a threat at any time. Even if I don't encounter a threat, I might suddenly want to draw my sword to admire its beautiful luster and touch the blade to feel its material."

"As my sword, can't you even do something like this?"

Mo Mo spoke calmly, saying the most normal and obvious things. But for some reason, Konno Muku suddenly felt a jolt in her heart, as if her heartbeat had skipped a beat, making her feel as if she had been electrocuted.

A warm, misty feeling surged from her heart to her head, flushing Konno Mukuki's cheeks and giving Mo Mo's face a more charming, girlish beauty than the sharpness of a sword.

"Ah."

Konno Yuuki remained silent for a long time, trying to organize her thoughts. She still didn't know how to respond to Momo. She had never had such an experience in her life, and she had never expected what was happening to her.

In the end, Konno Yuuki could only speak her heart and say what was on her mind at that moment.

"Big brother, you're right. Yuuki is your sword, so how you use the sword is entirely up to you. Yuuki... will always be your most caring and loyal sword!"

The sincere words expressed emotions that even Yuki herself seemed unable to understand. After releasing these emotions, Yuki felt that her breathing became much easier, as if the pressure and restlessness in her heart had been swept away.

Her trembling fingertips suddenly hardened, and she gripped Mo Mo's hand tightly in return. Then, she gave Mo Mo a big smile, making the blush on her cheeks even more adorable.

"Big brother, give the order! Yuuki is your sword, your wish is Yuuki's wish!"

“I heard what you said,” Momo took a deep breath and said, “Then Yuuki, come with me to Gensokyo. Let’s be the vanguard for this journey.”

"Okay, big brother, Yuuki will always be with you!"

……

This operation, due to the arrival of Konno Yuuki, turned into Momo and Konno Yuuki acting together.

Although Konno Yuuki, as a Heroic Spirit, can still contribute to the IS world if summoned even after her sacrifice, the IS world is ultimately a scientific world, and Konno Yuuki is renowned as a powerful warrior.

In particular, the news of Konno Yuuki's sacrifice in the IS world spread almost instantly to all factions around the world. The Chinese government even sent a special envoy to comfort Artoria's army and bestowed upon Konno Yuuki, who died heroically on the battlefield, extremely high additional honors.

In such a situation, if Konno Yuuki were to come back to life, he would probably throw the whole world into chaos in an instant.

Furthermore, if Artoria's speculation is true, and Konno Yuuki is indeed willing to sacrifice himself in order to return to Valhalla in a reasonable way, how could Momo dare to send Konno Yuuki back to the IS world?

Fortunately, those who entered the IS world this time were superpowered individuals whose variable fonts had been modified.

Putting everything else aside, Misaka Mikoto and Mugino Shizuri, with their flight abilities and strong physiques, are two powerful attackers in the air. Their strength is enough to fill the void left by Konno Yuuki, who was still at the limit of human physical ability when he was in the IS world.

Konno Yuuki naturally wouldn't object to this, or rather, she couldn't be happier to be with Mo Mo and stay by his side as his sword at all times, especially now that Mo Mo was holding the sword in his own hands, which made Konno Yuuki feel even more tipsy.

Guided by Yui, the two traveled through time and left Valhalla according to the destination given by Alaya. This time travel seemed perfectly normal; there were no figures like Nagato Daimyojin intercepting them along the way, and even after landing, Momo's clothes were intact.

This made Mo Mo suspicious. Looking at his intact clothes, he couldn't help but wonder if he could finally get rid of the curse of sincerity?

This is truly a joyful thing!

After all, Mo Mo isn't a pervert, so why would she like to be honest all the time?

That's good, that couldn't be better!

"Yui, you did a great job this time! This time you successfully time-traveled without any problems, right? You deserve encouragement! As expected of Daddy's daughter, you're getting more and more capable!"

Mo Mo couldn't help but praise Yui, but Yui appeared in front of Mo Mo with an embarrassed look on her face and said, "Although I'm very happy that Dad praised me for being capable, because I am capable in every sense of the word, Dad... you should look around before deciding whether to praise me!"

"Compared to the previous time travels, Yui now hopes that her father will be in a state of pure innocence, because Yui likes to see him like that, and she believes Yuki would like it too."

"In that case, at least the destination was correct, even though there were some problems with the method."

"But now, although Dad is dressed perfectly, everything around us makes Yui really wonder if we've come to the wrong place."

As Yui finished speaking, Momo began to look around. What came into Momo's view was not the scene of Gensokyo that Momo had expected, nor was it a direct entry into the Hakurei Shrine, but rather a school scene that had absolutely nothing to do with Gensokyo.

Humans naturally exist in Gensokyo, including teachers and students. However, the human settlement in Gensokyo, the Human Village, is merely an ancient-style village and has nothing to do with modernization—even though the outside world has already entered a modern society.

The campus scenery that Mo Mo was seeing was definitely a product of modern society.
