However, just as she packed her luggage and was about to call Nagasaki Motoyo, her sister Yukiho knocked on her door.

"What is it, Yukiho?"

"It's Sister Xiaoniao."

After opening the door, looking at Honoka Kousaka who was preparing to go on a long journey for the umpteenth time recently, a trace of worry flashed in Yukiho Kousaka's eyes, but she still forced a smile and said the name that made Honoka Kousaka a little scared.

"She's waiting for you outside now."

"Little bird..."

Repeating her childhood sweetheart's name somewhat dryly, Kousaka Honoka looked past Kousaka Yukiho who had stepped aside and saw the gray-haired girl who was waving at her with a smile. 】

838: Backstab (4k)

“Little bird…”

When she saw this face that should have been so familiar again, Kousaka Honoka felt as if she was in another world.

She wanted to recall when she last met the other person, but she couldn't remember it for a moment. She could only remember that she seemed to have been avoiding meeting her since she knew the truth.

But now, the time has come when it is unavoidable.

Looking at Minami Kotori's pretty face, which was lightly made up but still showed some dark circles under the eyes, Kousaka Honoka had a vague feeling.

The two left the Takasaka family in silence and strolled along the river as if to relax, but the atmosphere of silence always enveloped them.

In the end, it was Minami Kotori who spoke first.

"Hono Jam, are you hiding something from me?"

"Ugh?"

As if she had been electrocuted, Kousaka Honoka's body trembled slightly, and she quickly forced a smile and laughed.

"No! How is that possible? Xiaoniao, you know me well! How can I hide anything? Haha, by the way! Yukiho has made curry for me at home. Ah, I'm hungry. I'll leave first..."

"Yes, you and Hono-chan are childhood friends who know each other very well."

Minami Kotori looked at Kousaka Honoka's now dim eyes, and her childhood memories flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope.

"If it was the usual Honoka, no matter what she did, as long as she made up her mind, she would definitely take us forward together. Although many things seem to be very willful, it is precisely because of that willful Honoka that we are where we are now!

But what's going on with Honoka now?"

"I……"

Kousaka Honoka lowered her head, trying to avoid Minami Kotori's gaze, but was shocked by the latter's next words and had to look up and face her again.

"Is it about Umi?"

"..."

The forced smile completely disappeared from Kousaka Honoka's face. She looked at Minami Kotori silently, with disbelief and fear mixed in her sky-blue pupils, even faintly covering her eyes with a layer of mist.

Minami Kotori took a step forward and closed the distance between herself and Kousaka Honoka. She had already been prepared when she came here to look for Kousaka Honoka.

"Tell me, Honoka. Umi is also my friend. I have the right to know about this. You don't have to bear it alone!"

Kousaka Honoka's expression kept changing. She wanted to turn around and run away, but she couldn't take a step. She wanted to tell everything, but when she opened her mouth, nothing came out.

Finally, like a puppet that had lost all its strength, she weakly held onto the guardrails around her and spoke in a voice so tiny that Minami Kotori had to listen carefully to hear it.

"Those who eat the fruit in Helheim will become irrational aliens like Aqua..."

"Eat the fruit?"

Minami Kotori was stunned. As one of the witnesses who had seen Aqua's rampage, an ominous feeling rushed through her body, and the creepy feeling made her voice tremble.

Because she understood why Kousaka Honoka suddenly brought up such a thing.

——Yeah, how long has it been since Umi entered Helheim? Even if she didn't die after such a long time, what can she rely on?

Terrifying thoughts filled her mind and were confirmed by Kousaka Honoka.

"Umi also ate the Helheim Fruit, and turned into..."

"Foreigner."

Minami Kotori turned pale and immediately asked.

"What about the alien that Haimi didn't become? Where is she now?"

"she……"

The incident of the White Tiger alien attacking herself and Minami Kotori flashed through her mind, and Kousaka Honoka almost bit her lips to draw blood. Her shaken and dizzy pupils regained some clarity at this moment.

"She was killed by me. Just recently, she attacked me on my way to Helheim to find her. I failed to recognize her and made a mistake that is absolutely unforgivable."

Honoka Kousaka slammed the railing, taking all the blame on herself, but the more she spoke, the more her emotions began to break down.

"I'm sorry, Kotori. In fact, I no longer have the qualifications to be with everyone in Team Gaim. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

In fact, she never let go of this matter. She just used it to spur herself on and move forward regardless of anything.

If I, who killed Umi Sonoda, don't save more people, then wouldn't this life that was continued because of her death become meaningless?

So, she can't stop.

We must find a way to save the world.

With tears streaming down her cheeks, Kousaka Honoka sat dejectedly on a bench by the river, waiting for Minami Kotori's contemptuous and disgusted curses.

But, Minami Kotori wouldn't do that.

Just like Kousaka Honoka doesn't want Minami Kotori to blame her for the mistake, Minami Kotori, her childhood sweetheart, is also concerned about her friend.

Even though she was also in tears, she resolutely chose to hug Kousaka Honoka, trying to bring her some warmth.

"It's okay. It's okay now, Honoka. It must be very sad, right?"

"Ugh?"

"You don't have to bear this kind of sadness alone anymore. From now on, I will carry this sin with you. If we stay together, we will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty!"

"Little bird..."

Under the bright moon, Kousaka Honoka and Minami Kotori hugged each other and cried for the death of their friend.

A heart that was about to be crushed by heavy pressure was saved by the unreserved trust of his companions. 】

Cancer of the Earth: Woohoo, finally, finally a light-weight person shows up! I was really afraid that I would be crushed by this group of people!

Hai Ye: Little bird, you did a good job, you did a good job!

Silver Wolf: Should I say that she is worthy of being the woman that the chief has chosen? She is indeed something.

Fruit King: Mother bird, mother bird.

Sessile bird:?

Red Comet: Amuro, I'm doing something greedy.

White Meteor: Huh?

ZIO II: Colonel, when did you come?

Pioneer: Shenjin, if it's a woman, it must be your mother, right? She's obviously my mother!

Silver Wolf: 6.

Sessile bird: ???

Pure Love God of War: This strong bond shows that humans can overcome difficulties because of love.

The fried noodles of the Baiyin family today: Is Minami Kotori finally going to enter the main storyline?

Miao Mengqin: Well, this is indeed a happy thing for Kousaka Honoka, but is Nagasaki Motoyo going to be completely furious?

Monster Maker: Doesn’t this mean nothing is protected? (annoyed)

Guo Huang: Oh, that's right, it's over, I suddenly have a bad feeling! Su Shi, you are not going to stab me in the back, are you?

Long-term vegetarianism: You ask me, who should I ask?

[Just as the audience expected, Nagasaki Motoyo soon appeared in the following plot.

After learning the truth from Kousaka Honoka, Minami Kotori realized that she had to do something for the latter, so she immediately took action and confessed the entire picture of the Ark Project to her teammates and Zack and Peko who came to help them.

For a moment, everyone who knew the truth was a little panicked. Even Zack, who always behaved the calmest, frowned deeply and became worried about the future.

Looking at the sad faces of the people, the long-term vegetarian couldn't smile at all this time.

The current situation is completely beyond her control. No, it is better to say, at this point, is there really any motivation for her to continue to persevere?

What she had been trying to maintain, hoping that it would last forever and give everyone a happy ending, was now filled with the bitterness of the truth.

The warm place that should have made her feel safe and secure began to grow cold once again.

——Then, just like CRYCHIC, it will completely fall apart in an inexplicable place.

——It’s like this again! It’s like this again! It’s like this again and again and again and again…

His thoughts began to run wild, and a frightening light flickered in Nagasaki's dull eyes.

--Do not!

"This time it's different..."

She slid her delicate fingers across the surface of her Zhan Ji driver with such force that her fingertips turned white.

After being a long-term vegetarian, I finally made up my mind using a voice that only I could hear.

"This time, you are no longer the only ones who have the power to change everything..."

……

A few hours later, Mebius' laboratory welcomed an unusual guest.

"Are you looking for a hegemon? I have a good idea."

Seeing Nagasaki Suyo with a gloomy face, no longer pretending to be a good kid in front of everyone as usual, even Mobius showed a rare expression of surprise.

However, this little surprise was soon replaced by strong interest.

"Interesting, would you be willing to tell me your method?"
