A journey into an infinite dimension

"Can't move!"

After coming to their senses, Yakuya and Yui wanted to struggle, but no matter what commands their brains gave, their bodies did not respond at all. In fact, they could no longer feel the existence of their bodies.

Then, two sharp tentacles visible to the naked eye appeared out of thin air in front of them. While pointing the sharp parts at the necks of the two people, they pierced their skin with a slight force, causing a streak of bright red to flow out from the wound.

"As a reward for getting me fired up, let me help you make the choice."

There was not a single ripple or wave in Yan Guang's eyes, as calm as the deep ocean, Kaguya said lightly.

"One person dies and the other lives, or both survive. Choose."

Chapter 199 [Eight Dances]

"One person dies and the other lives, or both survive. Choose."

In the backyard of the hotel, Kaguya's eyes did not fluctuate at all as she watched Yui and Yakuya being bound in mid-air by invisible tentacles.

"———Wait, Jiaye, what are you doing?!"

After coming back to her senses from the series of incidents, Shiori immediately wanted to stop Kaguya's actions, but she found that no matter how she took steps forward, she could not close the distance between her and Kaguya.

"I'm not doing anything. I'm just helping them put an end to this matter early."

Kaguya said calmly.

To deal with a tsundere, just make sure that the other person can no longer be arrogant, and then only the tsundere will be left.

The simplest way to stop tsunderes from being arrogant is to crush their arrogance with absolute power, just like what we are doing now.

Although this makes her a villain, it doesn't matter. No one except herself knows that she is Shiori's other personality, so the blame will not be placed on Shiori.

"Contractor, you're thinking of being the bad guy to help them. I never thought you could be so kind."

Ye La's voice came softly from the headphones, a voice that ordinary people could not understand and were not qualified to listen to, but seemed to carry a hint of sigh.

"However, I finally understand why you were able to summon me. It turns out you possess this magic book. Regardless, the fact that you were able to obtain it is a testament to your strength and luck. I won't say anything. However, I must remind you not to casually perform god-level summons, as not everyone is as easy to talk to as I am."

"It has nothing to do with kindness, Yela. I have something I want to ask you later, but for now, let me finish the things at hand."

Hearing what Yela said, Kaguya used magic to compress the words into a movement of her lips, and spoke to Yela calmly in an almost inaudible voice.

"Then I will wait for you."

Upon hearing this, Ye La's voice fell silent, probably because he had returned to watching the show.

[Oh, you want to ask Him about your Mystic Eye and your inherent barrier.]

However, Yela fell silent, and Ge Jiuye's voice then rang out.

[Although He may not know, there is no harm in asking.]

Kaguya didn't deny this.

Curiosity is the nature of all living things, and even Kaguya is no exception.

What's more, this matter means a lot to her. Ge Jiuye said that he can't tell her yet, so she can only try to find the answer on her own.

[Jiaye, if you believe me, don't ask.]

Perhaps it was not an illusion. Ge Jiuye's voice at this moment seemed to have a different meaning from usual. Instead, it sounded rare and serious.

"Really? Then I won't ask."

Upon hearing this, Kaguya did not hesitate and immediately changed her mind.

[Then it should be okay to ask Yela about his pantheon, right?]

She believed that Ge Jiuye would not harm her, so since she said so, she would not ask anymore.

This isn't about being indecisive, it's just pure trust.

[That's no problem.]

The seriousness in the voice faded away, replaced by something like happiness and joy. The change was so great that Kaguya couldn't help but have some thoughts again.

Girls are as hard to understand as ever.

"But there's no need to resort to such methods, right?"

Hearing this, Shiori wanted to say something else, but was quickly interrupted by Kaguya.

"So, are you going to try to stop me?"

Looking at Shiori with an incomprehensible expression, Kaguya said indifferently.

It is not enough to just let them speak their true feelings. What is really necessary is to let them develop feelings for Shiori and be sealed by her.

Kaguya couldn't think of a better way to deal with this, so she had to use this common routine.

"...I will stop you!"

After realizing what Kaguya meant, after a brief silence, Shiori held in his hand an Unnamed Lance that was completely different in momentum, aura, and appearance from the original one.

What Jia Ye meant was that he wanted to take this opportunity to see how he had grown.

Although I don't want to be an enemy of Jiaye, if that's the case, then there's no problem.

After all, the battle with Jiaye had been fought countless times before.

"Then give it a try."

With a calm smile, the next moment, a large number of illusory tentacles rushed towards Shizhi from the void like a swarm of snakes, and were blocked by the suddenly opened spiritual barrier at the moment they were about to touch her.

However, even so, the powerful force of the tentacles themselves still pushed Shiori's body into the sky, and at the same time, Kaguya's figure turned into an afterimage and rushed over. The originally lively backyard was left with only Yakuya and Yui, who were still on the verge of death.

"...Hey, Yui, is what that guy said true? Are you really going to sacrifice yourself and let me be the only Yamai?"

Gazing at the two streaks of light colliding in the distant sky, although his body had lost consciousness, Yejushi, who was still able to speak, was silent for a while, and then suddenly spoke in a complicated tone.

"Rebuttal, according to what the princess said, Yakuya also wanted to sacrifice himself to help Yui, didn't he?"

Yui refuted Yakuya's statement that only one person did something wrong.

"..."

"..."

Then both of them fell into silence.

Originally, when they knew that each other had such thoughts, they should have fought each other because of shyness and anger, but the situation at the moment did not allow them to do so.

Thanks to this, they were able to have a calm conversation like this, unable to even escape.

"...I'm telling you, Xixian."

"Answer, what's wrong?"

In silence, the two spoke again one after another.

"If, I mean if, we chose to live together, what would you do?"

"Answer, Xixian wants to go to school."

"Not bad, this way, Xixian will become the goddess in the hearts of all the teachers and students in the school."

As if he had imagined that scene, the corners of Yakushi's mouth curled up quietly.

"Negative, that's impossible, because Yakuya's popularity will definitely be higher than Yui's."

With the same faint smile on his face, Yekushi said softly.

"Huh? Do I have to go to school with you?"

"Of course, because Yui wants to be with Yakuya forever."

"I really can't help you... Well, let's go for a walk after school."

"Agreed, I'd like to go into the cafe and take a look."

"Okay, but we have to share the cost equally."

"No, that's not fair because Yakushiya will definitely eat more."

"Well, it's just a little more than you, there won't be any difference!"

"Negative, is that really the case?"

"..."

"..."

Silence fell between the two of them once again, but this time, the silence was accompanied by the sound of something dripping to the ground.

"I'm sorry, I lied... Actually, I don't want to die... I want to live... I want to be with Xixian forever and ever——"

"Answer me, Yui... I don't want to... disappear. I want to live with Yakuya... -"

At some point, clear and warm tears had wet their faces, but neither of them cared about it. They just confessed their true thoughts to each other as the tentacles gradually loosened.

"Xixian——"

"Yakuya——"

Their eyes met and they both spoke at the same time.

"------"

Their voices indeed reached each other's ears, but in the next moment, a huge explosion and a pillar of light spanned the entire sky. At the same time, there seemed to be a familiar voice ringing in their ears.

"Shaping the incomplete knowledge (Da'at) and integrating the sephiroth, mimicking the second true name—"

"———<Rune's Oath - Gungnir, the Spear of Eternal Meteors>———"

Like a meteor, the size of the light column seemed to fill most of the sky, but the moment it appeared, it quickly shot towards a certain direction at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, and gradually shrank and became smaller in the process. Perhaps, it was not that the light column really became smaller, but the distortion of the space around it, causing the light column to appear to have shrunk in the eyes of others.

At the same time, the terrifying energy fluctuations could be clearly sensed by Yakuya and Yui, who were separated by an unknown distance, and gave them an illusion for a moment.

An illusion that he had been locked in by that terrifying attack.

Fortunately, illusions are always illusions, and the feeling of being locked soon disappeared with the disappearance of the light column.

"Ha ha......"

"Horror... It feels like I've died once..."

By the time they came to their senses, Yui and Yakuya were already covered in sweat. It was also only then that they realized that they had been holding their breath. The feeling of suffocation made them immediately relax and breathe in the air with a hint of salty smell.

"Ohh ...

However, one wave of troubles arose after another. Just when the two of them had just felt the happiness of being alive, an indescribable roar of chaos, evil, filth and blasphemy suddenly rushed into their ears, like countless needles, piercing their eardrums and hearing.

At this moment, their thoughts went blank. All their emotions, thoughts, and ideas seemed to be washed away by this indescribable sound, and their perception of the outside world was also cut off.

They had no idea what happened after that, because when they came to their senses again, one of the culprits was being taught a lesson by Shiori.

"————So, Jiaye, you never consider other people's feelings every time you do something, and it was the same just now. Don't you know that there are many ordinary students and teachers in the hotel besides Tohka and Kurumi? You dare to use that kind of thing. Aren't you afraid of accidentally killing them?"

"I didn't know it would suddenly scream, and I killed it anyway. There's nothing to worry about."

"You still dare to talk back, don't you?"

"Okay I'm sorry."

"You...ah, Yui, Yakuya, wake up."

Shiori, who was about to continue lecturing Kaguya, suddenly noticed that Yakuya and Yui had regained consciousness, and he immediately smiled with relief.

"As long as you're okay."

"You chose to live together, right?"

Kaguya was relieved that she no longer had to listen to Shiori's lectures, but she also knew that it was not advisable to stay here for long, so she immediately planned to retreat.

"Shizhi has the ability to help you, so the follow-up matters will be left to you to handle."

After leaving these words, before the three of them could react, Kaguya's figure suddenly turned into a shadow and slowly dissipated on the spot, leaving only Shiori and Yamai sisters staring at each other in silence and disorder in the wind.

He was clearly acting like a big devil just now, but now he wishes he could go faster. This huge contrast is really hard to accept for a while.

"....Um?"
