Whose personality mask's power comes from the heroic spirit?

Chapter 25 I don't want to add a title

Taiyi always feels that when he is free, he is too free, and when he is busy, his schedule is so packed that there is no time to spare.

After saying goodbye to Suzui Shiho, who thanked him and apologized, and chatting with the Suzui couple for a few words, Taichi left the hospital with Takamaki Anne and looked up at the sky.

To be honest, when the boys in the Phantom Thieves were in class, he, as a janitor, seemed particularly idle.

After school, all kinds of messy things started to happen.

In this regard, Taiyi was very glad that he was not a person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs.

Otherwise, if all the messy plots were mixed together and came at him all at once, Taiyi felt that he might not be able to sustain the energy.

After all, the dangerous plot has already been confirmed.

Ultraman series - Persona series - Detective Conan series.

The monsters have to be fought by him, the pilot of Ultraman X.

The shadow and the Holy Grail are easy to deal with. The main force is Amamiya Ren who was chosen by Yaldabaoth.

He is another Holy Grail-type 'Phantom Thief' whose personality mask power is not compatible with the Tarot cards. At most, he can only play a marginal supporting role or hold up the scene in the end.

Then...the plot of Detective Conan becomes dangerous.

This thing is just a comparison of human nature and whose spirit is more problematic.

Who knows who around you will suddenly turn into a popcorn man, take revenge in life and affect the onlookers as well.

Although X can defend against mental attacks and electronic data attacks, he can also act as a pair of eyes behind the scenes to prevent Taiyi from being attacked by normal humans.

Even if someone planted a bomb under his feet, X could use Ultraman's telekinesis to put up a protective shield for Taichi at the last moment.

But he couldn't detoxify.

And one of the favorite methods of the Rice Flower People... is to make you fall down with your mouth full of almond taste, holding your throat.

This broken world is stitching together Persona and Detective Conan, and negative energy monsters will appear sooner or later.

And I'm afraid there will have to be another wave of epic enhancements.

After all, the darkness of human nature never disappoints anyone.

If Taichi had not already investigated and confirmed that there was no town called Fuyuki City, nor Kanbuko City or Misaki Town in this world's Japan, he would have planned to go look for a person named Leif Lionel Flauros.

…Ah, the last town does exist, it just happens to have the same name.

"Oh——" Taiyi couldn't help but sigh.

"Taiyi? You don't look very well. Have you encountered any difficult problems?" Gao Juanxing looked at Taiyi with some worry and asked.

"Nothing, I'm just thinking about what to eat for dinner today." Taiyi lied casually.

"Ah, do you want me to treat you to a big meal?" Gao Juan Xing suddenly said excitedly, "Although I have been thanking you all the time, I haven't taken any action. I just want to show my gratitude by treating you to a meal!"

"...I'm going to be old enough to drink soon." Taichi narrowed his eyes and reminded, "Being treated to a meal by a high school girl... doesn't seem like a bad idea?"

Considering that he might in some sense be a gigolo, Taiyi was a little hesitant.

"After all, I'm also working as a cover model part-time, so I still have some money." Takamaki An said, holding Taichi's arm, "It just so happens that my friends in the modeling industry have mentioned a very good restaurant. Not only does it have a wide variety of dishes, but it's also a buffet. I might as well treat you to a meal there!"

Taichi didn't struggle much and obediently followed Takamaki An to the restaurant she mentioned.

The decoration is quite luxurious.

He is the type of person that even a poor guy would lower his head and walk away after just one look at him.

It's a high-end restaurant.

But the price is quite expensive.

Ten thousand yen per person.

Converted into RMB...it’s almost five hundred!

As a student who was only a part-time model, paying 20,000 yen in one go, even the easy-going Takamaki An couldn't help but show a look of pain on her face.

"Eat as much as you want." After helping Taichi choose a seat, Takamaki An patted his shoulder and winked at him. "I'll go to the snack area."

That’s right, the biggest attraction of this restaurant to An Takamaki is the high-end dim sum that is ridiculously expensive outside.

As for the dishes…even though she was a little envious, they were nothing compared to the dim sum.

"Naruto-san?" Just as Taichi was looking for his favorite food in the deli area, Yukinoshita Yukino's somewhat cold voice suddenly sounded from behind Taichi.

Turning my head, I saw a girl in a black dress with her long hair tied into a high ponytail, standing there with a glass of juice in her hand and a dazed look on her face.

"Yukinoshita? What a coincidence, you are here to eat too?" Tai asked with a blink.

He really didn't expect that he would have the chance to meet Yukinoshita Yukino outside.

"...I came here with my sister." Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head and replied, "She was having a party with a classmate she just met after transferring to another school, and she dragged me along."

"But you... I remember you seemed to be so poor that you were about to eat dirt, right?" Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Taichi in confusion, "Do you have money to eat the buffet here?"

"Someone's treating us." Taiyi shrugged and replied. His colleague used tongs to pick up the steak that had just been delivered and put it on the plate in his left hand. "It's the girl you met this afternoon."

"Apricot Takamaki, that's her name, right?" Yukinoshita Yukino nodded as if she had understood something. "I'm sorry to interrupt your date, so I'll take my leave now."

"…It wasn't a date." Taiyi was stunned for a moment, then immediately explained, "She just wanted to thank me for the help I gave her before, so she treated me to a meal."

Taichi's timely explanation seemed to make Yukinoshita Yukino feel more friendly towards him.

At least the iceberg atmosphere has eased a little.

"Ah, is it someone Koyuki knows?" Just when Yukinoshita Yukino was about to say something, a slightly frivolous voice suddenly came, "That's great, Koyuki also made friends on the first day after transferring to Tokyo."

"Not a friend." Yukinoshita Yukino sighed with a tangled look, "It's just someone I just met today and know his name."

Taiyi silently picked up the piece of meat on the plate with a fork, stuffed it into his mouth, and looked at the person who was slowly walking towards him.

One is the real Yukinoshita Haruno, whose other face she had just seen not long ago.

She and Yukino were wearing similar dresses.

It looks like a set.

Next to her was a pink-haired, busty young lady with a somewhat lazy look.

It looks unfamiliar, yet there's a sense of déjà vu.

"I really want Yukino-chan to complement my two sisters in terms of personality." The pink-haired older sister said in a socially-like line, "At the very least, Chika can be more normal."

Chapter 26: How could I, a human Ultraman with a non-motivated heart, be afraid of politicians?

Fujiwara no Toyotomi was the eldest daughter of the political family Fujiwara.

Although he has a casual personality, he has a very high appreciation for fashion taste.

After Yukinoshita Haruno transferred to her university, Fujiwara Toyomi took a liking to her as a "toy" at first sight.

Compared to Fujiwara no Toyotomi, whose great-grandfather was the Prime Minister and whose uncle is the current provincial minister, the Yukinoshita family, whose highest political status is just a county councilor, is so insignificant that they are not even qualified to be lackeys.

So even though her instinct reminded Yukinoshita Haruno that the seemingly loose-minded politician lady in front of her was a troublesome existence, in order to improve the Yukinoshita family, whose status and importance had plummeted to the bottom of the cliff due to the appearance of the monster, she had to meet him and use the 'political mask' she had worked hard for many years to make friends with him.

Although it is a 'toy'.

After a whole day of communication, Yukinoshita Haruno couldn't tell how much truth and how much falsehood were in Fujiwara Toyomi's words.

This also dealt a heavy blow to Yukinoshita Haruno, who felt she was quite adept in Chiba's political circle. Several times she almost couldn't hold up the mask on her face and revealed her true feelings.

Bringing her younger sister along, who didn't like socializing but agreed to do it for the sake of the Yukinoshita family, was also a self-suppressor that Yukinoshita Haruno set up to control her emotions.

The result was a miscalculation.

Rather than being a suppressor of her own emotions, Yukinoshita Yukino is more like a cat toy used to distract her.

And she, Yukinoshita Haruno, is that cat.

Yukinoshita Haruno, who knew her sister's personality well, didn't think her sister would be able to make new friends on the first day after transferring to another school.

So, worried that her sister would be "bullied", Yukinoshita Haruno took the initiative to pull the "playground" over.

A poor boy and a fashionable girl.

This was Yukinoshita Haruno's first impression of the boy named Naruto Taichi and the girl named Takamaki An.

And the second impression wasn't so good.

Although the poor boy would deliberately look away, she found that as long as he had the chance, the poor boy would shift his attention to Fujiwara Toyomi and stare at him for a few seconds.

An ordinary womanizer.

She couldn't really understand why her "cold" sister would have anything to do with such a person.

It couldn't be that the previous monster attack caused my sister's personality to change so drastically.

Although she felt that her sister had become much more sensible after that, her personality had not changed much.

All we can say is that she has learned to hide her true nature.

Perhaps because they have similar tastes in fashion, Takamaki Anne and Fujiwara Toyomi can actually chat with each other for a while.

Taichi can only communicate with the Yukinoshita sisters sporadically.

Taichi could see that Yukinoshita Haruno was trying to get information from him through casual conversation.

But, there's really nothing to say.

Apart from the two secrets of Ultraman and the time traveler that must never be told, there is nothing else that needs to be kept secret.

Well, including the matter of the temple and the personality mask.

Because given how well Yukinoshita Haruno knows Yukinoshita Yukino, she's afraid she won't be able to hide the secret from her sister for too long.

The relevant matters will sooner or later be exposed to Yukinoshita Haruno's sight.

But, that's not important.

the reason is simple.

Many people in the real world know the information about the temple and the personality mask.

Like the ones in the previous series.

In the list compiled by Aix, there is the name "Tong Tiao Group".

Plus the villain boss in this game, Shido Justice...

Tsk, the fact that no complete interest group has been formed in the dark can only be said to be a Japanese tradition. One's own personal interests are sacred and inviolable, and others' do not matter.

Ah, come to that, how about letting Aix think of a way to see if that 'savior' can still be saved?

The protagonist of the third game, I don't know if his name is Arisato or Yuuki Riki.

Once Taiyi's thoughts spread, it is not easy to retract them.

And his distraction was noticed by Yukinoshita Haruno.

If you were playing a strategy game at this time, the words "Contempt for Taichi has increased, Favorability - 30" would probably appear above her head.

Anyway, her opinion of Taiyi became more and more disgusted.

But Yukinoshita Yukino didn't think there was anything wrong.

She knew Taichi's private identity as 'Phantom Thief KNIGHT', and she would attribute his distraction at the moment to 'probably thinking about how to communicate with Shadow's sister about work' or 'thinking about how to quickly, easily and safely conquer the palace'.

Some people really don't need to be talked about.

Taichi's mind was half-remembered when he suddenly thought of Shido Masayoshi. A familiar voice startled him from his distraction.

"What a coincidence, Miss Fujiwara."

In that instant, three faces flashed across Taiyi's sea of consciousness.

Shuichi Akai, Red-Haired Shanks and...Char!

But among the above three people, the latter two will not appear in this world.

As for the former... he should still be fighting wits and courage with that organization.
