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

As we all know, ghosts and the like have no temperature.

and so……

With the last hope in mind, Shinjima slowly turned his head.

Tai Yi, who was wearing pajamas and holding a mobile phone in his hand, looked at him with concern.

"Tai, Taichi?" Looking at the other party with half belief and half doubt, Shinjima asked again.

"Uh, sorry, you didn't mistake me for that 'reflection in the mirror' prank?" Taiyi also realized the consequences of his actions in this situation, and scratched his cheek embarrassedly.

Chapter 74 Only Kitagawa Yusuke asked

Although I was still wearing pajamas, I even thought that I was sweating all over from the previous fright, so the pajamas were no longer secure.

But the current terrifying situation was enough to make Shinjima give up his reserve and hold Taichi's arm tightly, fearing that the little savior in front of him would disappear if he let go.

[“Taiyi, I’ve discovered something! There’s a negative energy reaction nearby!” Having fought against negative energy monsters before, X has become a beginner in detecting negative energy reactions.]

Taiyi's eyebrows were raised.

He remembers it.

Niijima Sae has a temple.

[“X, check if this negative energy is coming from Niijima Sae!”]

Taiyi couldn't imagine what kind of monster would be created if negative energy was mixed with people from the temple.

[“There are no cameras in the bathroom, and I don’t even know where Niijima Sae is. How can I check? Should I use Ultraman’s telekinesis? But doing so will easily alert the other party, which may cause unnecessary casualties to the people around him.” Axe reminded.]

"Makoto, take me to the place where you saw the reflection in the mirror before." Tai turned his head and said to Makoto Niijima who was leaning against him and shaking constantly.

"Yeah, yeah!" Although Shinjima was scared, he at least remembered that he had a sister.

So she mustered up the courage to open the door, and tiptoed to the bathroom door with Taiyi.

The situation now is very strange.

The elder sister was taking a bath and humming a song in the bathroom, while the younger sister was standing outside the door with a man.

There were only two doors and a small empty bathroom in the middle.

Niijima didn't dare to say anything, he just pointed to the gap at the bathroom door, indicating Taiyi could look through the gap.

Taiyi pursed his lips, then carefully leaned over.

[“Aix, stay alert and be ready to support me at any time!”]

Taichi completely forgot that he still had this thing called 'divine power' to use.

To Taichi, the violent monsters that can be seen and touched are not scary, but the unknown is still scary.

[“I think it’s best to let me handle the security work at this time.” Jeanne reminded, “If there really is an evil spirit, then I’ll be the nemesis.”

“But isn’t it possible that the one inside is not an evil spirit, but a monster called negative energy?” Himiko retorted, “So it’s safest to let X take over!”]

Looking through the crack in the door... Taiyi saw nothing.

An ordinary bathroom.

There are no unusual mirrors.

But one thing is certain.

[“The source of the negative energy… is the bathroom, on the other side of the door.” Axe reminded.]

Well, here comes the bad news.

Negative energy has targeted Sae Niijima who has a palace.

Taichi even has reason to suspect that the evil spirit in the mirror that Shinjima Mamoru saw was just a projection of the hall master in Niijima Sae's hall in the real world after being affected by negative energy.

The mirror is the medium of projection.

Taiyi retreated cautiously and made several gestures to Shinjima to go back.

After returning to Shinjima's bedroom, she looked at Taichi anxiously.

"Taiyi, did you find anything?"

"Some bad speculations." Taiyi scratched his head and replied, "Well, it's very likely not an evil spirit or something like that."

"Isn't it an evil spirit?" Shinjima was stunned for a moment, then slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"But it's more troublesome than evil spirits."

The expression on Shinjima Makoto's face froze instantly.

"I suspect that your sister may have encountered something bad for some reason... which led to the 'breakthrough' of the 'hall master' and even further affected the real world."

"Wait! Palace Master!" Shinjima grabbed Taichi with an expression of disbelief on his face, "Taichi, you mean, my sister... has a palace?"

"I can only say that it's possible." Taiyi replied, "It needs to be verified."

Shin Niijima took a deep breath, then opened his mobile phone and directly entered the other world navigation APP.

Name, input.

The physical location of the palace is… unknown.

The palace's otherworldly form... I don't know.

"Before, these two kinds of information were tested out through everyone's collective efforts." Niijima looked at Taiyi with some embarrassment.

"While there is still time, wake everyone up." Taichi urged, "It's time for the Phantom Thieves to take the stage."

"Sorry, everyone!" After making up his mind, Shin Niijima began to 'disturb' all the Phantom Thieves in the group at once.

……

Amamiya Ren: I see. I now have a general understanding of the situation.

Sakura Futaba: Is this the time to say "general understanding"? Another Ms. Niijima appeared in the mirror! Why do the routines that only appear in horror movies appear in the real world?

Ryuji Sakamoto: Futaba, have you forgotten what happened in Shibuya? That was an abnormal situation that shouldn't appear in the real world.

Yusuke Kitagawa: This is no longer the time to chat about these things. It is time to work together to find a path to the Niijima Lady Hall.

Yukinoshita Yukino: Do you want me to go find Sister Shadow? She might have a way.

Shinjima: If possible, let's not do it. I really can't forget the scene that Shadow Yukinoshita Haruno-san created when we conquered the palace of Jincheng. I don't want it to happen to my sister at all.

Taichi Naruto: Everyone, don't get one thing wrong. Our goal is not to conquer Ms. Niijima's palace, but to verify whether Ms. Niijima's shadow is related to the reflection in the mirror.

Yusuke Kitagawa: It feels like Taichi is deliberately hiding something.

Taichi Naruto: I see everything but don't say it out loud. There are some things that you shouldn't know now.

Amamiya Ren: Ah...I think I succeeded.

Sakamoto Ryuji: ...As expected of Lianlian! Send it now!

……

"I succeeded in just one try..." Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the surroundings with a complicated expression, then turned to look at Amamiya Ren, "Sometimes I really feel that Amamiya was born just to crack the information on the different world navigation app."

"By the way, why did you come here too?" Sakamoto Ryuji looked at Yukinoshita Yukino in confusion and asked, "You haven't even awakened your personality mask yet. Such a dangerous place is not suitable for you."

"Taiyi will protect me." Yukinoshita Yukino came to Taiyi without saying a word, pulled his sleeve and said.

"Am I the only one who wants to know why Taichi came here with Niijima?" asked Kitagawa Yusuke, who had no idea how to read the atmosphere.

"No, you don't want to!" Shinjima's face turned red and he glared at Kitagawa Yusuke and scolded.

Her pajamas were automatically replaced with thief clothes as soon as she entered the palace world.

Chapter 75: Shinjima Shin: Do everyone’s sisters play so wildly?

"Why is the inside of the court a casino?" Looking at the colorful environment around him, Sakamoto Ryuji looked at Shinjima in confusion and asked, "Does your sister play so wildly?"

Gambling tables, slot machines, and various gambling games are neatly arranged in the hall.

The expensive decorations elevated the casino’s status to a level that it shouldn’t be a casino at all.

"Maybe my sister is just a little bit rebellious deep down in her heart... maybe." Even Shinjima Makoto didn't dare to defend his sister with confidence.

"There is no smell of cigarettes or alcohol. It seems that this casino is very legitimate." Kitagawa Yusuke said, rubbing his nose.

"Compared to that, aren't you shocked? We were alerted as soon as we came in." Yukinoshita Yukino pointed at the Phantom Thief costumes on everyone and reminded them.

"This should be related to the terrifying scene I saw." Niijima clenched his fists nervously, "The reflection in the mirror may have something to do with my sister's palace."

"Huh? Just like Taiyi, the shadow has also begun to affect the real world?" Morgana looked up at Taiyi.

"Maybe it's not quite the same as mine." Taiyi pursed his lips and replied, "Anyway, choose a direction to explore first, and try to find the location of the hall master as soon as possible."

"Ah, la la, are you looking for me?" A hoarse double tone suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

Looking towards the source of the sound, a heavily made-up figure, covered in gothic black, named 'Niijima Sae', was standing there.

"Sister...is it your sister?" Shin Niijima looked at 'Niijima Sae' with some doubt and asked.

"Really...really a good kid." Niijima Sae frowned slightly, adding a bit of helplessness to her tone, "Although I had already guessed that you were mixed up with the thieves, I didn't expect that you would actually break into this world that belongs to me with the thieves."

“Sister, who on earth are you…” Niijima was about to tell her the horrifying scene that happened in the real world, but Taichi reached out to stop her.

"Are you really 'Niijima Sae'?" Taichi asked, looking at 'Niijima Sae' who was standing on the steps and looking down at him and his group.

"Hmm? Are you blind?" Niijima Sae looked at Taichi in surprise and asked, "If I, the master of the hall, am not Niijima Sae, then who else is Niijima Sae?"

"Ah... Could it be... I see, you've already seen that." Niijima Sae seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly put on an exaggerated grin, "Although I am very dissatisfied with that thing that trespassed into my territory without permission, it is indeed well-behaved and obedient. It can even be used to enhance my abilities and give me the power to interfere with the real world."

"You must be kidding. Making the hall master stronger? Even interfering with the real world... How is it possible for such a power to exist?" Morgana shouted loudly as if his defense was broken.

"Hehe, that's what you call that thing, right?" The smile on Niijima Sae's face became distorted, "Monster."

Except for Taiyi who already knew it, everyone's eyes widened instantly.

"Monster? How could... why would the hall be connected with monsters?" Ryuji Sakamoto's voice began to tremble.

"No, this is easier to understand." Amamiya Ren tried to stay calm. "In fact, only the existence of monsters can explain what the student council president saw before."

"No, no way? Are we going to fight monsters again?" Sakamoto Ryuji rubbed his hair and asked, "Really? We? Fight monsters?"

"I can't do anything at all!" Kitagawa Yusuke muttered through gritted teeth.

"I hope that when we have the opportunity to attack Shido's Hall of Justice in the future, there won't be any changes like what we have now on his side." After taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Yukinoshita Yukino was even in the mood to make a joke.

"There is a chance... Don't make it sound like we can't get through this time." Sakamoto Ryuji retorted weakly.

"Huh? What? You little thieves, that's all?" Niijima Sae sighed as if he had lost interest in the Phantom Thieves, and then turned his gaze to Niijima Makoto, "Makoto, why don't you just stay and keep me company."

"In the real world, I am an idiot who is blinded by the desire for power. She has never even thought of leaving a place for you in the depths of her ambition." Niijima Sae was full of negative emotions when she mentioned her real self. "That idiot made it so that I don't have anyone to talk to."

"But now it's different."

The twisted smile on Niijima Sae's face gradually softened.

"Really, you're here."

"I will make up for the years of care and love I missed when my mind was only focused on making a name for myself, so...stay, Zhen!"

For a moment, the entire casino seemed to be distorted.

"What happened just now?" asked Amamiya Lian, looking around.

"The palace seems to be overloaded." Morgana swallowed and replied, "That shadow, the master of the palace, Niijima Sae, has been twisted to the point where even the palace can't support it."

"I'm afraid it was caused by the monster that strengthened her."

"What will happen if it can't handle the load?" asked Shinjima nervously.

"I don't know." Morgana shook his head and replied, "Because there is no precedent."

"Probably, it will become part of the monster and then materialize in the real world." Taichi suddenly said, "I think this should also be the original intention of the monster that invaded Ms. Niijima's palace and 'infected' her."

"That makes sense, but what can we do to avoid this bad ending?" asked Yukinoshita Yukino.

"Stop chattering away! Can't you just be quiet and let me listen to my lovely sister's answer?" Niijima Sae's face suddenly changed and he shouted angrily.

"Sister..." Shin Niijima shuddered, then looked straight at the hall master 'Niijima Sae', "I'm sorry, I can't possibly agree to your request."

"Because my sister in the real world can't lose me." Shinjima put his hand on his mask and responded, "Otherwise, I'm really worried that one day she will become like you standing here."
