A journey into an infinite dimension

Closing the curtains, Shiori muttered to himself, then lay down again and pulled the quilt over his head.

"..."

"..."

"...It's so hard to breathe. Was this not a dream?"

Suddenly, he lifted the quilt and sat up. Shizhi opened the curtains again and looked at the huge unknown sphere in the sky outside the window that had not yet disappeared. He suddenly felt a little sad that he was able to think calmly in this situation instead of panicking.

Ever since I started sealing the elves, I've experienced so many troubles that I'm almost used to them.

So now I’m afraid that some trouble has come again, but this thing is so big, doesn’t anyone notice it?

"Shiori, are you awake?"

At this moment, the sound of knocking on the door along with Jiaye's voice reached Shizhi's ears, bringing her back to her senses.

"Get up, the door is unlocked."

If it was any other boy, Shizhi would never let him enter his room no matter what, not to mention that he was wearing pajamas at the moment.

However, as for Jiaye, they used to even take a bath together. Although she was taking a bath and Jiaye was chatting with her, they were just wearing pajamas, so what if he saw them?

Even Jia Ye had taken his clothes off with his own hands - although for him, it was no different from taking off his own clothes.

"Good morning, Gaya."

Looking at Jiaye who pushed open the door and walked in, Shizhi couldn't help but greet him with a smile.

After a while, it’s great to be back to the daily routine of being able to see Jiaye as soon as I wake up.

"Good morning."

Walking to Shizhi's bed, Jiaye rubbed her head, then gently pointed to the window at her angry look.

"You should be able to see that huge sphere too."

"...So, that thing isn't visible to everyone?"

Catching a message from Kaya's words, Shizhi couldn't help but ask.

"Although I haven't asked many people yet, probably only you, me, Cai Huo, and Qian Yu can see it."

Looking at the unknown sphere outside the window, his eyes flickering slightly, Jia Ye said.

"To be precise, only you and Qianyu can see it."

Among the four people who can be seen, except for Chiba, who has a mysterious origin, Caihuo and Shiori are isotopes from different time and space, and Jiaye is the secondary personality of the two. In essence, he is the same person as Shiori. Therefore, if Chiba is excluded, the three people who can be seen are all "Gokawa Shiori".

"In other words, this trouble is coming to me."

After understanding what Jiaye meant, Shizhi couldn't help but feel a little stomachache.

The luck that I had in mind, which was not much to begin with, was shattered.

"According to Cai Huo, this sphere is composed of the spiritual power of the spirits you sealed. The reason is that because they shared a certain emotion, their spiritual power unconsciously gathered together to form this sphere."

The smile on the corner of her mouth had a hint of joy. Jiaye looked at Shizhi with a smile and told her the truth that made her want to hold her head and wail.

"That emotion is probably jealousy. In other words, Shiori, your harem is about to catch fire."

"...Can I just treat this as that guy's nonsense and ignore it?"

Lying powerlessly on the bed, Shiori hugged the shark doll beside him and said with some self-abandonment.

"Then I look forward to the day when your body is divided into portions for each person."

Walking in from outside the room, Cai Huo gently lifted her long hair and smiled maliciously.

"Don't say such disgusting things so early in the morning, you beastly woman!"

The scene quietly emerged in Shizhi's mind as Caihuo spoke, and he immediately shuddered.

"You finally see through your true nature."

Caihuo said with a smile as she gently put her arms around Jiaye and deliberately tucked his arms against her chest so that Shizhi could see.

"However, if that happens, it wouldn't be a bad thing. Then Jiaye will belong to me alone."

"I won't let you succeed!"

Pointing at Caihuo with the shark doll in his hand, Shiori declared.

"I will never let you, a loser who couldn't protect Jiaye, get him. One day I will definitely kill you!"

"Then I'm looking forward to it."

After smiling nonchalantly, Caihuo dragged Jiaye out of the room, completely ignoring Shizhi's hostile gaze.

"Gaya, let's go on a date this afternoon."

"Tomorrow, I want to check on the situation here with Shizhi first."

"Then we have a deal, no breaking the contract~"

"....You're setting a trap, right?"

"Who knows?"

Shizhi looked at the two people's backs as they walked out of the room indifferently, and then counted down to five seconds in his mind as if he was waiting for something.

5...

"Go get up and wash up. Breakfast is ready. After you eat, we'll go discuss this matter with Kotori."

Walking back into the room, Kaya said to Shiori.

"Don't you have that guy? Just take care of her."

Turning away from looking at Jiaye, Shizhi said coldly.

This guy Jia Ye has been surrounded by Cai Huo these days. He doesn't know how to refuse or keep distance from her, and just treats her the same way he treats himself.

Originally, I was the only one who could be treated like this by him...

I'm so upset, I really want to destroy something to vent my anger!

"You two are the same person, aren't you?"

Sitting gently next to Shiori, Jiaye said helplessly.

"She is she, and I am me. Even if we are essentially the same person, she is not me!"

All the resentment and resentment that had built up until now burst out after hearing these words from Jiaye. Shizhi suddenly pushed Jiaye down, then turned over and pressed on him, opening his mouth and biting his shoulder hard.

No one likes to be treated as someone else, and even less likes to have someone treated as themselves.

The feelings gained in the former case are just false things, while the latter case will lead to the division of the unique things that should belong to you.

No matter what the situation is, it's impossible to like it.

So Shiori hates Caihuo, and also doesn't like Jiaye treating Caihuo as her.

Strands of bright red quietly flowed out from the place where Shizhi's silver teeth were biting. Even a body shaped by magic still had a nerve perception system such as pain. However, even so, Jiaye did not say a word.

Looking at Shizhi's pretty face so close to him, and the tears slowly flowing from the corners of her eyes, Jiaye did not blame her. He just slowly raised his hand and placed it on the back of her head. At the same time, with his other hand, he gently hugged her slightly trembling body, enduring the severe pain in his shoulder.

"I'm sorry for neglecting your feelings all this time."

Gently stroking her hair, Jiaye said softly.

"Although to me, you are the same person, I overlooked the fact that no one likes the existence of another self, and because of this self-righteous thought, I arbitrarily decided to treat you equally. I'm sorry."

If you put yourself in someone else's shoes and think about it, if another self appears and Hong treats that self the same way she treats herself, then Jiaye is sure that she will definitely find ways to make that "self" disappear, and she will use any means to do so.

So now that he realizes this, Kaya can understand Shiori's feelings and is willing to change his attitude in the future.

"I will change my attitude towards the color disaster from now on, Shizhi, can you give me a chance?"

Gaya gently tucked a strand of Shiori's hair behind her ear, hugged her until her body stopped trembling, and asked softly.

"..."

There was no response, but Jiaye felt a momentary sting in his shoulder, and then the teeth embedded in his flesh left. Then he seemed to feel something warm licking the wound.

"....sorry."

Shizhi's whisper, as soft as a mosquito's, came to his ears, and Jiaye just smiled slightly in response.

"It's okay. This body doesn't feel pain."

He lied, but if it could make Shiori feel less guilty, he didn't mind.

"...Jiaye, do you think I'm willful and unreasonable?"

Still maintaining the posture of pressing on Jiaye, Shizhi asked in a low voice after a long silence.

"I'm so happy that you can be so willful to me."

Loosening his grip on Shiori, Jiaye relied on his experience and memory to carefully wipe away the tears from the corners of Shiori's eyes without being able to see her face.

"I will tolerate everything about you, whether you are willful or spoiled, because I am you. I am your other half, your other half, and the real other you."

"We don't need to care about the things that ordinary people care about, so I'm really happy that you are willing to show me your willfulness."

"At least you didn't choose to keep it in your heart and bear it alone."

Most misunderstandings and troubles are caused by choosing to conceal things and remain silent, so Jiaye is really happy that Shiori can speak up to complain and vent his anger.

"Will you hate me?"

Shizhi raised his head, with a clear streak of scarlet at the corner of his mouth, looked directly into Jiaye's eyes and asked softly.

"No, there's no way I could possibly hate you—"

He suddenly couldn't continue speaking halfway through. Jia Ye couldn't help but stare at Shizhi's face so close to him with wide eyes. The softness blocking his lips seemed so green and tender, but it carried seven parts of love, two parts of attachment and one part of possession that he couldn't feel under normal circumstances.

This was the first time the girl had kissed a man. So far, she had only kissed eight girls, but the emotions poured into those eight kisses were far less than this one.

For Shiori, this was the eighth late kiss, and for Kaya, this was the second time he was forced to kiss.

The first time was an unavoidable accident, but this time, it was due to a lack of reaction.

From now on, no matter what the situation, you must never let your guard down.

As he maintained this deadlock with Shiori who didn't know what to do next, there was only one thought flashing through Jiaye's mind.

Chapter 213: HA☆NA☆SE Let Me Get High! (Suppressed)

"The elves' unconscious jealousy of each other has caused spiritual energy to form a giant sphere high in the sky that only you, my sisters, can see. To resolve the sphere, you need to have one-on-one dates with all the elves, and become their exclusive object during the date, allowing them to release the pressure in their hearts."

In the temporary base of "Ratatoskr", Kotori, Tohka and other elves listened to Shiori's explanation in a daze, their heads unable to wrap around for a moment.

Hearing such explosive news so early in the morning, it would be impossible for anyone to react.

"Sister, did I tell you this solution?"

With a hint of hesitation in her eyes, Kotori asked Shiori.

"Yeah, but the principle of the sphere is what that guy said."

There was only one person Shiori would call 'that guy', and Kotori knew it.

Since it was Caihuohe who said it, then it should basically be correct.

Kotori thought in her heart.

She believed in her sister's second personality, and also believed that Cai Huo, whose strength far exceeded theirs, had no need to lie to them.

"So, there's no place for me on the date?"

With a pair of bright sky-blue eyes blinking, Origami looked at Shiori and asked somewhat sadly.

"this......"

Scratching his cheek, Shizhi looked a little embarrassed.

The solution was thought up by Jiaye based on what Cai Huo said, but because it was limited to elves, Origami really didn't have the chance to do it...

"There's nothing wrong with letting Origami join. After all, they are all your wings, right?"

Caihuo was fanning the flames with great interest, but if it were any other time, Shiori would definitely have retorted, but at this moment she just glanced at Caihuo with disdain and then simply ignored her.

"Ok?"

Cai Huo was also somewhat surprised by this.
