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

Putting everything else aside, could this Kitagawa Yuko be the Kitagawa she knows?

Who on earth is so brave as to date Kitagawa Yuko?

……and many more.

Before she could come to a conclusion, she noticed a new message coming from Tachibana Hibiki.

A stranger lay sprawled outside the barrier.

Nana Ohba and Hibiki Tachibana taking Tomoe Shiraki away means that the Silver Garden needs a real base in this world, and cannot remain an empty shell organization. Otherwise, everything will be exposed when Tomoe Shiraki wakes up.

To this end, Kita Kirihara created spaces in other character cards that could be used as bases.

This is the witch barrier created by the witch Homura Akemi. This barrier is not as large as the entire Mitakihara City that she once created, nor is it a completely new world like the real Silver Garden. However, it is more than enough to accommodate the character cards of the Silver Garden members.

Meanwhile, Tachibana Hibiki, who had brought Shiraki Tomoe to the Starlight Pavilion within the barrier for temporary residence, accidentally discovered a petite figure lying at the entrance of the barrier.

She scratched her head, staring blankly at the stranger lying next to the trash can in the alley, and raised her eyebrows slightly.

The petite, black-haired girl on the ground, pale-faced and breathing rapidly, had completely lost consciousness.

PS:

I'm too lazy to think too much about character design, so I like: Yuki Uesugi and Yuko Kitagaki.jpg

18. Silver Garden

"Hmm...it looks like it's burning up really badly."

"Is Shiraki Tomoe still not awake? This kind of ability riot needs to be handled by professionals."

"There's nothing we can do. After all, her body has been possessed for half a year, and the trauma, both mental and physical, is quite severe. None of us are very good at treating her, so we can only let her recover on her own."

"What a hassle."

"After all, the director said that professionals like Ms. Shiraki are quite necessary."

"You really like calling that leader 'director'..."

"Because the director reminded me a lot of my friends from the Creative Department."

Unfamiliar conversations.

She heard the voices of unfamiliar girls talking, and Yuki Uesugi's mind gradually awoke from a state of confusion. She tried to open her eyes, but her eyelids felt incredibly heavy.

After all my efforts, I could only open the door a crack, through which I could see a blurry image. My body was limp, and I couldn't even lift a finger.

The two strangers beside me were not hostile. One appeared to be blonde and was wearing a light yellow outfit, while the other wore an orange coat, making them easily distinguishable by their colors.

Her body felt as if it were being torn apart; the throbbing pain of her surging power tormented her nerves, and her body temperature rose to an unbelievable level.

Despite her groggy head, Yuki Uesugi still managed to hear the name "Tomoe Shiraki" mentioned in their conversation.

Of course she knew Tomoe Shiraki; it was this person who was in charge of her when Yuko Kitagawa regularly dragged her to the hospital for check-ups.

Why am I hearing her name here...?

Unaware that she had been missing for a week, Uesugi Yuki's memories were of being ambushed during a mission and then her abilities inexplicably malfunctioning. She was unaware of Shiraki Tomoe's situation.

As she gradually regained consciousness and her control over her body improved, she was finally able to open her eyes and see the two people in front of her clearly.

The flaxen-haired girl standing on the left, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, was the first to notice that she had woken up.

Noticing Yuki Uesugi's gaze, she widened her golden eyes and raised an eyebrow with a slightly indifferent expression: "Awake?"

"She's really awake."

Sitting on the other bed, the blonde, green-eyed girl got up. Her tone was gentler than the short-haired girl's. She had her hair down and was wearing a light yellow loungewear with a triangular pattern. There was still some moisture in her hair.

It looks like they just came out of the shower.

The images and scenes are very lifelike.

This slightly softened Uesugi Yuki's guard.

"...Where am I?" she tried to speak, and realized that she hadn't been unconscious for too long; her throat was just a little hoarse, but not painful.

At times, the slender and always vigilant Uesugi Yuki gives the impression of a black cat. She has crystal-clear amethyst pupils, combined with round cat-like eyes, making her look much younger than her actual age.

Because of the pain from the power surge, her face was pale, showing an excessive fragility, and her exposed wrists were excessively thin.

She struggled to sit up; her lips were pale, giving her a sickly appearance.

"Wait a minute... You're still sick, you can't move around too much," the girl in the pale yellow pajamas said with concern. "Lie still in bed, would you like some water?"

She noticed Yuki Uesugi's chapped lips.

"Thank you, but could you answer my question?" Yuki Uesugi asked cautiously.

As she spoke, the tip of her tongue, faintly visible, bore dark red, incantation-like patterns. This was the effect of her abilities on her body, not a erotic tongue tattoo.

After all, it's a capability achieved through spoken words.

This is quite common among ability users, and some even develop non-human characteristics: bone spurs, animal horns, or wings... quite diverse.

However, according to Yuki Uesugi's observation, the two people in front of her should not be ability users.

She didn't sense the energy fluctuations that should be present in people with superpowers, but her instincts still kept her on guard, and she felt that things weren't that simple.

However, the environment I'm in...

Yuki Uesugi realized that this must be a student dormitory.

It's still a double room.

The room was laid out much like her dorm room when she was in school: wooden floors, single beds on either side of the room, and desks and bookshelves beside the beds. The wind stirred the curtains, and the setting sun streamed in, bathing the room in a warm glow.

You can even hear the sound of birds flapping their wings and flying by outside.

It's a warm and welcoming place, not a cold and impersonal hospital room.

This must be where these two people live.

"This is the Starlight Pavilion," the girl in the pale yellow loungewear said with a smile. "I saw you lying on the ground by the roadside and I was worried about you, so I brought you in. However, we can't help you with your condition."

Hibiki Tachibana, whose helpful nature was directly pointed out by Nana Ohba, turned her head away somewhat awkwardly: "...It was just something I did on the spur of the moment, don't overthink it."

Although she is positioned as a character with inner demons, this does not mean that she should be classified as a villain.

In reality, Hibiki Tachibana is someone who can't stand seeing others in distress; when she sees someone in need of help, her body can't help but move on its own.

Yuki Uesugi felt that the two of them had casually glossed over some very important information, but since she was now grateful for their help, she had no right to press them for details.

So she could only manage a forced grateful smile: "Thank you."

"You should get some rest. I need to prepare dinner now," Nana Oba said considerately. "You don't seem to be feeling well. Would you like some hot porridge tonight?"

Yuki Uesugi had no objections. Although she was usually a picky eater, it wasn't appropriate for her to make demands on others at a time like this.

Hibiki Tachibana, however, seemed to have some ideas. She pursed her lips slightly and suggested to Nana Ohba, "How about steaming some more rice and making a rice bowl?"

"...You really don't get tired of this kind of eating? Xiang, you need a balanced diet." The two chatted as they walked out.

"I'll help." Although her favorite dish is rice bowl, the girl named Hibiki Tachibana seems to be quite good at cooking.

After all, spending a lot of time alone, it's not surprising that one would develop such cooking skills.

"Will Yuna and the others be back for dinner today? What about Yoriichi-san? Should we prepare some udon? Or okonomiyaki?"

"Dinner can be a bit more elaborate, after all, tomorrow..."

The two's conversation disappeared completely as the door closed. Uesugi Yuki could no longer hold on and decided to lie down and continue sleeping for a while.

The wind rattled against the windows. Outside the Starlight Pavilion, several short, oddly shaped children, who looked like figures from a picture book, giggled and threw tomatoes into the air with all their might.

Yuki Uesugi was too weak to see the sky outside the window, which appeared as a strange and distorted, colorful, glass-like expanse.

19. She should have been more dazzling.

Holy crap... what's going on with the Silver Garden's base? It's giving me goosebumps.

[It feels so strange, there's a kind of distortion that's completely different from the art style here.]

No wonder these characters in the comics are so elusive; they don't have a fixed real-world base and live in this alternate dimension.

Whose ability is this?

To be honest, all I can think about is the radiant banana blossoms; they're so beautiful!

【Silver Garden Daily Life】

Where is everyone else? Did they all go out? Damn it! I want to see the others!

[Yuna! Is that Yuuki Yuna?! Yuna who can move!!!]

Wow, Mr. Xiang is so domestic! He's so skilled at chopping vegetables!

I was so afraid she would cut her hand, but she really didn't.

[A rice bowl topped with rice is a bit hard to understand; isn't it a bit too high in carbohydrates...?]

Hibiki's fighting style probably requires a lot of calories, so she must have a huge appetite.

The rice bowl is so fragrant, with the delicate aroma of rice.

Was I just rambling before?

These two are busy preparing meals for so many people...

The Silver Garden in this timeline has so much screen time I'm practically in heaven! God knows how long I've been waiting for this day.

[They even saved Tianjing! That's amazing!]

The plot is getting more interesting!

It seems the Silver Garden will be the MVP of this storyline.

[Don't forget about A-Yuan! She's the main character, she gets a lot of screen time.]

[Perhaps this is an ensemble piece without a main character?]

After Yuki Uesugi woke up, the camera quickly switched to her perspective.
