The comments section all think I'm a really good person.

Even though there were no wounds, the liquid seeping from her chest wasn't sweet tomato juice, but Shiori Hachiya's own blood.

It was just a tiny bit, but it was quite noticeable on the thin white T-shirt and spread very quickly.

Shiori Hachiya instinctively clutched the fabric at her chest, but didn't feel any pain from her wound.

The blood seemed to have only seeped out a little bit, and it stopped after Shiori Hachiya and Nana Oba stopped talking about heroes.

"...Miss Hachiya, what is this?" Nana Ohba asked with concern.

Because, although the T-shaped mark was left because of her and Shiori Hachiya's revue, it actually had nothing to do with her.

Prior to this, Nana Oba was completely unaware of the changes in Shiori Hachiya.

This was neither part of her script nor Kita Kirihara's design.

Therefore, the answer is obvious.

This is a completely unfamiliar product born from Shiori Hachiya's own unique qualities colliding with the unpredictable stage of fate.

The T-shaped mark immediately reminded Nana Ohba of the crucial position on stage called "positionzero".

At the very center of the stage.

The mark the actors used to define the center of the stage was a T-shaped mark.

The presence of this mark on Shiori Hachiya signifies that she has become the center of attention on a certain stage.

But what is certain is that it is not the world stage.

But...

The stage of life for this person named "Shiori Hachiya".

But hasn't Miss Hachiko already decided to continue her activities on the world stage as a hero?

What's going on here?

Why... is there still such a "stage" eagerly awaiting Miss Bee Valley?

Is it that there's still reluctance to part, or...?

Nana Oba was momentarily stunned.

...Or is it that Miss Bee Valley's life journey has another stage ahead?

Thinking this, the comments section was already buzzing with excitement.

The reason is simple: Shiori Hachiya's personal origin story was suddenly updated five minutes ago, instead of being released at the usual time.

Moreover, it's the ending of one of the storylines.

In fact, because Shiori Hachiya's popularity is not that high, her origin story has been suspended for some time.

As Shiori Hachiya rejects Nana Oba, her final fate in another world is also updated.

[…Bee Baby, sob sob sob sob]

[Ugh, I was just enjoying watching Chief Koizumi's incompetent rage, but now that I've seen the ending of Hachiya, all I can do is sob.]

[Holy crap, who knew Bee Valley's second-tier equipment would look like this?]

It seems that Bee Valley is also planning to...

Wait, why the sudden mourning? Give us a reason!

Does Bee Valley die in every route? The story that was just updated is about what happens after the Dream Weaver dies in the original storyline.

I remember it was a concert accident...?

[In Bee Valley's lore, she can only reach the second tier by leaving her current body. Therefore, in all the storylines, after Bee Valley dies, she advances to the second tier.]

[Huh? Then why haven't I seen her active anymore? I thought she was really dead.]

[After Bee Valley's death, the dream defenses were reinforced by an unseen force, nightmares ceased to appear, and people were no longer tormented by nightmares... It was as if a new master had moved in there—this is the description of Bee Valley's second stage in the ending.]

In other words, if she really dies, she will be relegated to the dream realm and will no longer be human.

Moreover, in that world, time and space are chaotic and disordered, and the lord of dreams can exist in any time, achieving so-called "eternity."

【…? Holy crap】

[...Didn't Chise ask Hachiya before if there were any dream travelers like her?]

【………………】

Damn, that means...

[Was there only one manager of the dream world, Bee Valley, from beginning to end?]

【……ah????】

Her fate was already sealed... Everything now is simply a continuation of that lonely end, it's just a matter of time.

Even with Nana Ohba's exquisite facial expression control, she couldn't help but show a slight awkwardness under such truth.

Fortunately, the camera is now focused on Shiori Hachiya, so Nana Ohba's shock wasn't captured on camera.

She glanced instinctively at Shiori Hachiya, who was staring at her white T-shirt that wouldn't come out clean, and the disbelief that flashed in her eyes for a moment went unnoticed by Shiori.

Shiori Hachiya is currently preoccupied with one thing.

This is a very important matter.

Just as Nana Ohba had guessed, Shiori Hachiya knew all too well that she couldn't hold on for long if things continued like this.

Just as Shiori Hachiya, as an idol, has her final curtain call, I, as a hero, also need a more suitable time to exit the stage.

...The request made by Nana Ohba is something that a hero cannot do, but Shiori Hachiya, considering her own perspective, really wants to help.

Besides, we can't let that child, Chise, continue like this.

These thoughts were not reflected on his face.

She muttered to herself, not seeming heavy-hearted because the deadline was approaching, but rather annoyed because the clothes weren't clean: "Ugh, there's blood on them, they're impossible to get clean now."

The bright red stains were far too obvious on the bright white clothes.

It's unclear whether Shiori Hachiya will experience pain due to this wound.

"Miss Hachiya, are you hurt?" Nana Ohba couldn't bear to see Shiori Hachiya trying to get away with it, so she asked worriedly, "Lift up your clothes, let me take a look, okay?"

Shiori Hachiya: "...Huh?"

As she watched Nana Oba suddenly approach, the tall girl's figure almost completely shrouded her in shadow, a sense of crisis inexplicably rose in her heart.

And lifting up your clothes here... you're not wearing a bra (emphasis)!

Who wears a bra to bed at home?!

Her pupils dilated in shock, and she took two steps back, clutching her chest. "No, no, no... wait, I'm fine. I probably just pressed on a tomato while I was sleeping... oh no, I mean, I accidentally got some blood on my skin just now..."

Waaah, why do I feel like I'm going to be... when a banana comes near me?

It felt like drinking very strong liquor.

PS:

Bee Valley's abilities have been hinted at before.

First, she transformed the core of her soul.

Secondly, she alone is equivalent to the total number of all other mental ability users combined.

Third, in the incident of her debut battle, she almost advanced to the second tier and completely shed her human identity.

Fourth, during her conversation with Chise, Chise expressed surprise that there was only one administrator in the dream world.

171. Does banana not drink alcohol?

Sayaka Miki is going back to the Silver Garden.

To be honest, she was very reluctant to use the word "go back," but it was indeed the truth. Right now, she needed to live in the subspace created by that bastard Homura Akemi.

She herself is a rather unique character card.

What makes it special is...

...According to Kita Kiri, she seems to be considered a bonus to Homura Akemi.

[Bonus]...?

After some events, Sayaka Miki was imprisoned in the fully expanded Silver Garden, a universe created by Homura Akemi herself to imprison someone.

Because Kita Kirihara needed manpower, Sayaka Miki was thrown here by that devil to the Silver Garden... to work for free.

In other words, Sayaka Miki was actually sent to this world by Homura Akemi herself, like an extra character obtained through the story. She can only be active at the same time if the character card [Homura Akemi] is active.

Therefore, according to Kita Kiri, Miki Sayaka is indeed a character attached to the Akemi Homura character card.

Rather, it is part of the Silver Garden.

In this unfamiliar world, Sayaka Miki had nowhere else to go.

After helping with the work, she was faced with the choice between wandering around or returning to the Silver Garden, and she chose to go back.

...Although that demon was a bastard, the others were quite friendly.

Sayaka Miki, who had just been sent to this world to help out, was actually a little confused about how this world worked.

Although the streetscape, the language used by pedestrians, and the words on the signs all seemed to be the same place where I used to live...

However, the addition of the profession called "Hero" and the view of half of Tokyo Tower from here clearly indicate that this is another world.

What exactly are character cards?

Sayaka Miki was a little confused. To her, everyone in the Silver Garden seemed no different from ordinary people.

"[Sayaka,]" The voice that suddenly rang in her mind startled her. Miki Sayaka almost screamed in the street, "[Please bring Yuna back with you.]"

It was Kita Kirihara's voice; the latter had used his privileges as a character card user to speak directly into Miki Sayaka's head.

Having never experienced this kind of communication that was quite different from telepathy, the blue magical girl was slightly startled.

She breathed a sigh of relief after realizing it was Kita Kirihara.

After putting away her magical girl outfit, Sayaka Miki, dressed in a regular middle school uniform, walked down the street, looking no different from any other ordinary girl.
