mygo, but Cthulhu

"We are indeed her friends, but she will definitely not agree with our decision, so we can't tell her."

Misaki Ozawa sighed, she gently touched Yuya's head, slowed down her voice, and held her hand.

"Youya, I'm sorry. I know this makes you feel uncomfortable... but could you please not tell Xian Juanxin about this for the time being? If she finds out, everything will get even worse, and I really don't want to have any more conflicts with her... I beg you."

"...Since you say so, Misaki-senpai, then of course I will believe you."

The girl was silent for a while, and when Misaki thought she would refuse, she gave an answer that surprised Misaki, leaving her stunned.

"So, Youya, you agreed?"

"Because it was you, Misaki-senpai, who saved me. If it weren't for you, I would have died at the hands of the Kunyang people... I will help you keep the secret."

Yuya smiled softly and nodded vigorously, and Misaki couldn't help but feel touched. She hugged the girl gently, exhaled a sigh of relief, and whispered a sincere thank you.

"Thank you, Youya... If Xin finds out about all this, I will take all the responsibility alone. I will never let you get involved."

After the only hidden danger was resolved, the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed. Misaki and the others tasted the snacks brought by Yuya and praised them with smiles. When they finally felt a little relieved, they did not realize that two pairs of eyes had been watching here through the magic screen.

"I see. Seta Kaoru and Ozawa Misaki also want to help Shirasagi Chisei win the game, and they've concealed their plans from Genmaki Shin... We've almost finished gathering the intelligence."

Ichigaya Manshi raised his hand to make the screen disappear, and after thinking for a while, he nodded slightly to his daughter.

"Toyokawa Shoko agreed to Shirasagi Chisei's request in order to eliminate the threat and get Mitakeran to help resolve the issues between her and Sankaku Hatsuka. Aftergrow and Paspale can't escape and must win the game. Now Seta Kaoru and Okuzawa Misaki have joined the fray. You're right. If I go directly to seek revenge on Shiina Riki, I won't stand a chance of winning."

"Yes, so you should understand the importance of intelligence now. They have temporarily formed a powerful alliance."

The daughter smiled, and the girl calmly sorted out the information and then shook her head.

"But this alliance is not solid. There is no trust between the bands. They are only temporarily united because they each need something... As long as I can find the weak point, I can make the situation chaotic again."

"Really? Then how exactly are you going to do it?"

"Let me think about it for a moment..."

Faced with the daughter's smiling question, Ichigaya Wanshi couldn't help but frown. She thought about it and refocused the screen, her thoughts flowing as she searched for candidates who met the requirements. After a while, she finally found a suitable target and couldn't help but curl her lips.

"Right, as long as I can make good use of these people, I will definitely be able to create the opportunities I need... My revenge will definitely succeed."

Chapter 396 Changes

"Let's start now."

Bailu Qiansheng spoke softly, and Fengchuan Xiangzi nodded. She raised her hand and let the silver light cover Qiansheng's body. The latter instantly felt the instinctive resistance and severe pain in her mind. Her body kept reminding her how dangerous all this was and what she would have to endure if she failed.

However, if it was just a physiological instinct, she wouldn't feel even a little bit of fear.

Shirasagi Chisei suppressed her pain and fully accepted Toyokawa Shoko's power, cooperating with her to outline the image in her memory bit by bit. At the same time, the bodies of Maruyama Aya and Hikawa Hina also appeared in reality.

"...Xiaocai, Hina."

Although she knew that they were just echoes of her memories, Bai Lu Qiansheng still instinctively made a sound filled with sorrow. She subconsciously reached out her hand, but all she felt was the coldness of the spell entity, not the warmth she missed.

"..."

On the other side, Mei Zhulan

's reaction was exactly the same as hers. She stared blankly at Tsugumi Hanezawa and Tomoe Udagawa in front of her, her vision unknowingly blurred by tears.

"Thrush, Tomoe..."

"sorry Sorry……"

The next moment, the sound of Fei Mali's collapse suddenly sounded. Mi Zhulan was stunned for a moment and then realized something. She quickly turned her head and saw the pink-haired girl kneeling on the ground sobbing. Her face was distorted and she was desperately tearing her body apart. She didn't dare to look up at the two friends who had passed away long ago, and kept apologizing with tears.

"I'm sorry, Tomoe. I wish I could do better. I'm sorry..."

"Don't cry, Feimali. No matter how much you apologize, they won't hear you... They are just echoes that Bailu Qiansheng reproduced using our memories. They have no self-awareness, and all we have to do now is give our all to the upcoming live performances... That's the best way to mourn them."

Mizukuri pulled the trembling and sobbing Himari up from the ground, and whispered comfort to her tiredly and seriously. The pink-haired girl stopped hurting herself because of her words, and after a moment, she looked up at her with tears in her eyes.

"Ran...Ran, if we can do our best, maybe Tugumi and Tomoe will hear it, right?"

"Of course... I believe they will hear it, and they will definitely not blame you."

Mizukuri hugged her comfortingly, and Feimali's emotions gradually stabilized. At the same time, Paspale was ready to perform.

After the equipment was ready, Bai Lu Qiansheng couldn't help feeling a little dazed. She subconsciously looked at Maruyama Aya in front of her, but then suddenly remembered that the other party no longer had the ability to speak on her own. She couldn't help but sigh and smiled bitterly.

"Everyone, we are Paspale... Even after all that has happened, we still want to have one last live. Even if Aya and Hina aren't really them, I still won't give up... Because that's what they wanted in the end."

Bai Lu Qiansheng grabbed the microphone and spoke softly with a complicated tone. Even though there were only Mygo and Mujica in the audience, she still recalled the good times of the past and spoke softly with sincerity.

"Next, please enjoy our music. This is our declaration of war against fate. Even though we've endured so much, even though we have to face an almost impossible opponent, we still want to persevere. We don't want to give up."

As soon as she finished speaking, the familiar melody sounded again. Bai Lu Qiansheng took a deep breath and began to play the bass. Even though so much time had passed, she still had not forgotten the melody that belonged to Paspale... After all, how could she forget those precious beauties?

In trance and pain, she heard Xiao Cai's singing again. The passion was exactly the same as in her memory, but it also made her more aware that Xiao Cai had left her. Only her memories and her long-lost best friend were singing here.

…But since she still remembers them, then Aya and Hina aren't completely dead… They're still alive in this way, aren't they?

Bai Lu Qiansheng gritted her teeth and began to play her part with all her might. Her fingertips were cut from exerting too much force, but she did not care about the pain at all and continued to persevere with a heart full of sadness and determination.

That's right, this wasn't just to win the game, she also wanted to say goodbye to her friends this way... She wanted to prove to them that no matter how much pain and despair she endured, she would never give up, she would persevere for them... She definitely would.

"...It seems that she has indeed made up her mind."

Misaki Ozawa looked at Paspal on the stage with a complicated expression. She sighed and spoke softly, and Kaoru Seta nodded seriously.

"Yes, Qiansheng must be feeling very uncomfortable right now, but she must also want to continue to persevere... I want to help her."

"You will help her. Her magic is not stable after all. If anything happens to her, she can rely on your memory to stabilize herself, and I will ensure your safety..."

"Didi,"

Before Ozawa Misaki could finish her words, the cell phone in her pocket suddenly rang. She was stunned for a moment, then took out the phone and answered it. At the same time, Yuya's urgent voice was heard from the other end.

"Misaki-senpai, a letter from someone unknown appeared on my desk, saying he will take action against your family... What should I do now?"

"…I'll check Rine and the others' location right away. I'll be back soon."

With her pupils contracted, Ozawa Misaki replied without hesitation, then she quickly turned to look at Seta Kaoru with an anxious expression.

"Xun, an unknown person sent a threatening letter to Youya targeting my family. That person must have known our plan. I must inform Xian Juanxin and ask her to send someone to protect you, otherwise..."

"No, don't do that, Misaki. Kokoro will definitely interrupt the live forcibly... This is very important to Qiansheng, I can't let that happen."

Seta Kaoru interrupted her firmly, shaking her head vigorously.

"Misaki, you should go back first. Mygo and Mujica are here. If someone wants to ruin everything, they won't sit idly by. You don't need to worry about my safety."

"but……"

"It's okay, Misaki. Your Sian Westin is unmatched. You'll be back soon."

Seta Kaoru patted Misaki's shoulder with a smile, and the black-haired girl pursed her lips and could only sigh. She quickly found Toyokawa Shoko to explain the situation, and the latter thought about it and nodded.

"I will do my best to protect Ms. Seta's safety, but I can't promise you anything."

"That's all I have to say. I'll be back in three minutes... Xun, you must protect yourself."

Misaki Ozawa nodded vigorously, whispered a warning to her friend, and then directly opened the Sian Westin. The next moment, she appeared in front of Yuya and took the envelope from her hand.

"Mi, Misaki-senpai, you're back."

Yuya was startled by her sudden appearance, and after she came to her senses, she quickly turned the tablet over to let her see the real-time location of her family, and Ozawa Misaki couldn't help but widen her eyes.

"They were in the same location where Kanon's parents were attacked? Why would they be there?!"

"Um, I'm not too sure about the details. It seems like your sister noticed that Kanon-senpai was a little lonely recently, so she offered to go out with her. Why they went there is completely unknown to me..."

"Lonely? This..."

Ozawa Misaki was stunned by her words, then suddenly remembered that she and Kaoru had been preoccupied with their respective affairs. Genmaki Kokoro also had a lot on his plate, so it was understandable that Kanon felt lonely... How could she have forgotten that? And this was such a coincidence! Who was plotting against them?!

She gritted her teeth and was about to turn around, but the next moment, her arm was suddenly grabbed, and she subconsciously turned around to meet Youya's uneasy eyes.

"Misaki-senpai, what should I do now? Shouldn't we tell Kokoro-senpai about this as soon as possible?"

"Youya, listen to me first. We can't let Xin know for the time being. Just hold on for a while..."

"Ozawa Misaki, I knew that Yuya must have been uneasy recently because of you. I didn't expect that you wouldn't tell Xian Juanxin about this kind of thing... What are you thinking about?

Don’t you care about your family?”

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded behind Misaki. She frowned and turned around to see Hatsuho standing at the door. The expression on her face was extremely cold, revealing obvious anger.

"Hatsuho, calm down first. How could I not care about my family? But Xun is doing something very important right now. If Genmaki Shin wants to transfer her illusion to Genmaki Tower because of this threatening letter, our actions may be exposed..."

"Your friend's affairs are more important than your family's safety?! Are you kidding me?!"

The girl gritted her teeth and roared, and while Ozawa Misaki was stunned, she shook her head in annoyance and raised her hand to take out the recorder from her pocket.

"Forget it. I don't care what the hell you're doing. When I discovered your concealment, I activated this real-time recording pen... Now Xian Juanxin knows everything. Regardless of whether you go to find your family or not, Li Yin's safety is guaranteed. That's enough for me."

"..."

Misaki Ozawa opened her mouth but didn't know what to say for a moment. She sighed and ran directly to her family at an alarming speed. She finally breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that they were all okay.

"Misaki...why are you here suddenly?"

Kanon asked subconsciously in confusion, and when Misaki didn't know what to say, the device in Kanon's pocket suddenly vibrated. After she took it out, the projection of Genjumiko's heart soon appeared. She looked at Misaki expressionlessly, with suppressed anger in her voice.

"Misaki, I never thought you would hide something so important from me. You even let Kaoru take such a risk... I'm so disappointed in you."

"You have no right to say such things to me. Xun made this decision in order to regain her former dream. This is her sincere wish..."

"Could that thing be more important than her life?!"

Ozawa Misaki responded through gritted teeth, but she was interrupted by Genmaki Shin's roar halfway through. She was annoyed and subconsciously wanted to refute, but when she saw Kanon's confused expression beside her, she realized that now was not the time to argue. She sighed and raised her voice.

"No matter what, she wants to help her friends, and she won't necessarily be in danger, right? As her friends, you and I should help and respect her, not deny her will."

"Can you really say that participating in the dangerous game of Naya's incarnation isn't without its risks? Her will is merely impulsive, and she has no idea what she's getting herself into... By supporting her, you're only pushing her into the abyss."

Genmaki Shin responded coldly. At the same time, Ozawa Misaki could also see the army not far away moving out quickly, and countless hovercrafts flew towards the location of Seta Kaoru at the fastest speed.

"In short, I can ignore that Bai Lu Qiansheng, but Xun must return to the Xianjuan Tower. This is not something she can decide on her own. I must ensure your safety, even if it means going against your will."

"You guy..."

Misaki Ozawa subconsciously ejected her prosthetic blade in anger, and when she was about to activate Sianwestin to violently intercept those troops, she suddenly felt her legs being hugged directly, and she unexpectedly looked down to meet her sister's pleading and painful eyes.

"Sister, please, don't disobey Sister Xin anymore. She just wants to protect Sister Xun. Are you going to take action again?"

"Liyin, please let me go first. I really don't have time right now. I will explain to you later..."

"do not want!"

The girl gritted her teeth and raised her voice, which made Ozawa Misaki stunned. After she reacted, she was stunned. Rin also trembled and hugged her legs tightly, refusing to let go no matter what, crying and shaking her head vigorously.

"I don't know when, sister, you've become more and more weird. Everyone seems to be accepting everything, but you refuse to admit reality and take out your anger on Sister Xin... She's done so much for us, but you still want to hurt her and smoke like that... I hate you the most now, sister!"

"Liyin..."

Hearing her words, Ozawa Misaki froze in place for a moment. She looked at her sister blankly, and the girl looked up stubbornly and looked at her, her sobbing voice full of determination.

"If you want to activate your prosthetic body, then just do it without worrying about me. I will never let you go... If you insist on doing it this time, then you will no longer be my sister!"

"..."

Misaki Ozawa stared at her tearful face, her heart filled with confusion and powerlessness. She didn't understand why her sister would say such a thing... Could it be that she really did something wrong?

...No, she was sure that she was not wrong, but her sister had already begged like this, and at this moment, her sister was still crying...What choice did she have?

I'm sorry, Kaoru.

She tiredly apologized to her friend in her heart, but ultimately did not choose to break free. She just hugged Li Yin silently, listening to her incomprehensible complaints and cries, and enduring the pain.

She knew that the distorted order had bound her family, but she was powerless... She couldn't ignore Li Yin's tears.

In a trance, Ozawa Misaki only felt that she saw a tall tower that almost blocked the sky. She subconsciously looked up and saw that the tower was made of the flesh and blood of countless people mixed with steel. Her family and friends were located in the very center, safe, and there was no possibility of escape.

And at the top of the tower, was the String Heart, looking down at her calmly.

Chapter 397 Anxiety

"Grandma, it's almost time for us to leave. Are you ready?"

Kasumi Toyama knocked on the door gently, but there was no response from inside. She opened the door with some confusion, but saw that the room was empty. There was only a mess of blood next to the fallen wheelchair.

"grandmother?!"

Kasumi opened her eyes wide and rushed into the room. She looked around quickly but still couldn't find any traces to follow. She only saw a note on the table.

"I'm sorry, Kasumi, Tae, but I really can't leave you like this... I must avenge Arisaki. You can go now and don't worry about me anymore."

"Grandma went to see Shiina Riki? But how is that possible?"
