A journey into an infinite dimension

'It's impossible to fall in love with other people', not 'It's impossible to fall in love with anyone'. Doesn't this mean that Jiaye already has someone he likes, so he won't fall in love with anyone else.

Hehe, Jiaye is such a tsundere, is there any need to beat around the bush like this?

Shizhi smiled secretly in his heart. The previous depressing mood had disappeared, replaced by a sweet feeling like eating honey.

But wait, one day I will make you say it directly and actively!

Looking at Shiye's back, Shizhi waved his little fist and encouraged himself in his heart.

She never cared that they were actually the same person, because ever since he had broken into her dead and hopeless world and promised to absolutely protect her, forcibly pulling her out of the spiral of despair, she knew that she had already——

"Honey."

The unexpected sound interrupted Shizhi's thoughts. She subconsciously looked up and forward with Shiye, and then they saw it.

Origami, dressed in casual clothes, was standing at the corner in front, looking like she had just walked out of the corner. However, she did not seem surprised after seeing Shi Ye, as if she had expected it.

"Origami, why are you here?"

Blinking, Shiye asked in confusion.

"To wait for you."

Walking up to Shiye, Origami raised her head slightly to look at her and spoke softly.

"Because I know my dear will come to see me tonight."

"While that's true, I feel like your words could easily be misunderstood."

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Shi Ye sighed softly.

"But since you're already out, if you don't mind, could you please walk around with me?"

Although it seems that there are serious safety issues for two girls to hang out together in the middle of the night, even if danger really happens, the only one who will feel the danger is the person who is trying to bring danger to the two of them.

After all, one of them is comparable to an elf, and the other is qualified to face the elves directly, so unless more than three elves jump out at once, there are really not many existences in the world that can bring danger to them.

"I am glad to."

Without any hesitation, Origami agreed as soon as Shiye finished speaking.

At the same time, she boldly put her arm around Shi Ye, making the two of them look like a young couple about to go out on a date.

Click————

""Um?""

Before Shiye could helplessly break free from Origami's movement, a strange sound came into their ears. The two of them stopped and turned to look behind them at the same time.

However, what came into view was a deserted and cold street, with only the moonlight projected on the earth being slowly obscured by the clouds.

"..."

"..."

【...】

In an instant, the atmosphere became suspenseful and weird.

[No, it's not a ghost, is it? ]

Without caring about getting angry at Origami's behavior, Shizhi subconsciously hugged Shiye's other hand tightly, and asked with some trembling, as his current form of existence was actually no different from that of a ghost.

[It's not impossible. After all, there are already unconventional beings like elves, so it wouldn't be surprising if more ghosts appeared.]

His original intention was to comfort Shizhi, but Shiye's words made Shizhi even more scared.

Because she found that what Shi Ye said actually made a lot of sense!

[Why don't you go back to the conscious world first? ]

Looking at Shizhi who was so scared, Shiye couldn't help but suggest.

[...No, I still need to monitor you to prevent you from using my body to do anything weird with Tobiichi!]

After a brief moment of excitement, Shiori resolutely refused.

"Honey, I'm so scared."

Holding Shiye's hand tightly, Origami leaned on her and spoke in a tone of praise.

"Speaking of which, besides elves, are there ghosts in this world?"

Enduring Shiori's resentful gaze, Shiye asked Origami.

Her understanding of this world was never as great as that of the people in this world, especially the knowledge of many secrets, unlike ordinary people who were kept in the dark.

"Never heard of it."

Origami said softly, shaking her head.

"But the possibility cannot be ruled out."

Why do all of you say this?!

His body trembled slightly, and Shizhi felt like he was about to cry.

She was not so timid originally. After all, in her eyes, ghosts and other things were fictional and not worth being afraid of.

However, since she met the elves, her values ​​and worldview have been forced to reshape.

Maybe now even if someone said that there are magical girls in the world, she would probably believe it.

"Really? Never mind."

Shaking his head, not dwelling on the topic any further, Shiye glanced at a certain building and said to Origami.

"Let's go over there and talk about what happened this morning."

"I listen dear."

Chapter 145: The Prototype of Shura Field and Encounter

"woo woo woo woo------"

"Shh! Tohka, calm down. If you're exposed, we won't be able to continue following you!"

In a corner, two petite figures were entangled with each other. One of them seemed to have her mouth covered by the other and could not speak, while the latter was whispering to persuade the former.

And beneath the feet of the two people, there was a spider-web-like crack quietly existing.

The clouds blocking the bright moon were slowly blown away by the wind, and the bright moonlight fell on the earth again, illuminating everything on the street and the true faces of the two figures.

It's Kotori and Tohka.

"I'll let you go if you promise not to speak too loudly, how about that?"

Covering Tohka's mouth while holding onto her body, Kotori used all her strength to prevent her from moving around and whispered in Tohka's ear.

"Mmmm."

Turning her head to glance at Kotori, Tohka, who had calmed down a little, nodded slightly and agreed.

"Then I let it go."

She slowly let go of Tohka, but she did not let her guard down and was still ready to cover Tohka's mouth again at any time.

But fortunately, Tohka was a good and obedient child. She promised Kotori not to speak loudly, and she did not speak loudly.

"Konori, you saw it, Shiori, Shiori actually sneaked in to see that bad woman in the middle of the night!"

Pointing in the direction where Shiya and Origami left, Tohka complained to Kotori in a low voice with great resentment.

Shizhi had just promised to protect her and acknowledge her in the morning, but in the evening he went straight to the person who had been attacking her and wanted to hurt her. This——was so frustrating, so unhappy!

Where did you learn this word...

A drop of cold sweat quietly flowed down her forehead, but in order to prevent her elder sister from being killed by the axe before she could seal Tohka's spiritual power, Kotori felt that it would be better for her to stabilize Tohka first.

"Tohka, listen to me."

Gently pressing Tohka's shoulders, Kotori said seriously.

"My sister is looking for Yuanyi, maybe because of you."

"....Eh?"

Hearing this, Tohka was stunned.

"for me?"

"Yes, Tohka, think about it, Tobiichi has always attacked you because you are a spirit, so I guess my sister came to negotiate with Tobiichi."

At this moment, Kotori no longer cared about Shiye's real purpose in looking for Origami. In short, she would do whatever it took to stabilize Tohka.

As for what happens next, let my sister handle it herself.

"After all, once your spiritual power is sealed by my sister, you won't cause space shocks casually. That way, those AST people will have no reason to continue attacking you, right? So my sister must be here to persuade Tobiichi and the AST people not to attack you in the future."

In a sense, what Kotori said was exactly the same as what Shiya was going to do.

I can only say that the two are worthy of being sisters.

"But, but the intimacy between them——"

Although Tohka also felt that what Kotori said seemed to make some sense, she couldn't help but recall the image of Origami hugging Shiya's arm.

Even she had never been so close to Shiori...

"Maybe, maybe my sister was coerced by Yuanyi?"

Unable to think of any good excuse, Kotori simply gave up.

Anyway, the one who will have a headache later is not her, but that sister who always causes trouble for others!

"Being coerced..."

In just a moment, a picture appeared in Tohka's mind.

[Hehehe, Itsuka Shiori, if you want me to let Tohka go, just give in~]

【I...will be loyal to you.】

【Hehehehehe————】

"————Shiori, I'm here to save you!"

In an instant, before Kotori could react, a gorgeous spiritual outfit appeared on Tohka's body. At the same time, her figure disappeared from the spot in a sonic boom, leaving only gusts of wind blowing Kotori's hair, just like her messy mood at the moment.

"Congratulations, Commander, for making Shura Field possible."

Lingyin's calm voice sounded quietly from the communicator beside her ear, successfully bringing Qin Li back to her senses.

"I......"

Kotori was speechless.

[Beep beep beep————]

Suddenly, a rapid warning sound resounded throughout the entire Fraxinus, causing everyone to pause in their movements.

"Commander, a spiritual wave reaction has appeared nearby. It's located on the rooftop of the building next to the department store!"

After finding out the reason for the prompt sound, Kannazuki Kyohei immediately connected to the communication channel and reported to Kotori.

"The department store, isn't that—?"

Her pupils shrank quietly, and Kotori quickly ran out of the corner, and then her eyes were immediately attracted by the colorful waves splashing on the top of the building not far away.

Of course she knew what that thing was, because it was the spiritual power unique to elves.

At the same time, Ling Yin's voice, which no longer seemed so calm, sounded again from the communicator.

"It has been officially confirmed that Tohka encountered an unknown spirit and a battle ensued. Meanwhile, Ori and Tobiichi Origami were drawn to the battle between the two."

"Take me back to Fraxinus immediately!"

Knowing that things had completely gone beyond her expectations, Kotori immediately gave orders.

The moment she finished speaking, her figure disappeared in a stream of light green.

......

......

Let’s go back to a little while ago, at the top of the department store.
