Anime, but the Phantom Thieves of Heart

Lan Ke gave an answer based on his common sense, but Tina shook her head.

"Captain, have you forgotten that this isn't the 'material world', or even the 'cognitive world'? Instead, it's somewhere between two worlds. So, is your common sense still common sense?"

Tina's question made Lan Ke not know how to answer for a moment, but it seemed that Tina did not intend to let Lan Ke go, so she spoke again.

"Through 'Execution', you can obtain 'Personas', 'Tools', and even 'Weapons' from the 'Sea of ​​​​Spirit'. Have you ever considered where these things come from?"

Although Lan Ke didn't know, he came to a reasonable conclusion considering the other party's behavior of asking him to come and see the stars.

"Star?"

"Indeed, a more accurate description would be 'beings isolated from the cognitive world by the Sea of ​​Spirit.' So you could also consider the stars above our heads to be the so-called 'demons' and 'gods.' So, what do you think is the reason these 'demons' and 'gods' try to cross the 'Sea of ​​Spirit' and enter the cognitive world?"

"It can't be the destruction of the world, right? Does it mean anything to them?"

"No, neither the 'Demons' nor the 'Gods' intend to destroy the world. After all, they were born because of humans. Humanity's faith and fear drive them ever stronger. To them, humans are the world's most important 'resource'."

The cold word "resources" made Tina's originally beautiful golden pupils look a little scary, but it didn't seem to care and just continued to speak according to Lan Ke's request.

"Beyond the material world lies the infinite universe, while beyond the cognitive world lie the 'gods' and 'demons' born from the will of mankind over millions of years. The atmosphere protects the Earth from the threat of meteors, and the spiritual sea protects the cognitive world from being occupied by 'gods' or 'demons'."

Having said that, Tina looked at Lan Ke with a rare serious look.

"As I said before, Captain, you come from outside this world, so you possess the ability to travel between the 'material world' and the 'cognitive world'. However, as the 'material world' and the 'cognitive world' gradually merge, the two worlds will also influence each other. One day, 'demons' or 'gods' will enter the 'material world' from the 'spiritual world', and a war will inevitably break out between them to compete for 'resources'..."

"Demons and gods don't intend to destroy the world, but that doesn't mean the world won't be destroyed because of them."

As Tina finished speaking, Lan Ke felt a chill on his back. It turned out that his back had been covered with cold sweat without him noticing.

Lan Ke really wanted to get more information from Tina, but he never thought he would get such an outrageous answer.

"why did not you tell me?"

Lan Ke's voice sounded extremely dry.

"Captain, what good would it do if you knew? Besides, 'Gods' and 'Demons' have existed since the dawn of humanity, and the world has continued to function smoothly for millennia. Knowing this would only add to your troubles."

Having said that, the other party stopped looking at the brilliant night sky and jumped onto the table beside him.

"Captain, if you didn't know all this, you could use your abilities to live a carefree life. After all, human lifespan is but a fleeting cloud in the eyes of gods and demons. But now that you know all this, can you still remain calm?"

As she spoke, Tina walked towards Lan Ke with an elegant cat-like step and looked into his eyes.

"Now—do you regret it?"

Chapter 25 Heal the world, sounds cool, doesn't it?

Outside the wheelhouse is the turbulent 'sea of ​​spirit', while inside the wheelhouse are Lan Ke and Tina gazing silently.

The two sides stared at each other silently, as if waiting for the other to speak first. Suddenly, Lan Ke showed a relieved smile.

"Of course I won't regret it! Because what I hate more than trying my best and failing is finding out that I missed the chance to change..."

As he spoke, Lan Ke pulled out the chair next to Tina and sat down on it.

"I originally wanted to become a 'Phantom Thief' not only to heal people's hearts but also because I thought it would be cool. Now, doesn't 'healing the world' sound even cooler?"

Facing Lan Ke who was clasping his hands towards the sky as if trying to hold the stars in his hands, Tina sighed helplessly.

"Captain, are you stupid?"

"Of course not! Or rather, quite the opposite. I sacrificed too much in my last life to realize my 'dream'. I want to be freer in this life, and those guys are standing in my way. Isn't all I can do to kick them away?"

Facing the genuine smile on Lan Ke's face, Tina sighed helplessly.

"I really got on a pirate ship..."

"In that case, let's sail this 'pirate ship' more steadily~"

Although they were discussing extremely serious matters, Tina suddenly found that she couldn't be serious anymore. However... she didn't hate this feeling.

Almost at the same time, Lan Ke felt the sound of waves in his ears, and along with the sound of waves there was another sound.

"Your relationship with Tina seems to have deepened."

"'Strength''s' support level increased to LV2"

Lan Ke, who was leaning on the back of the chair, was stunned, and Tina, who was lying on the table, also raised her head suddenly.

The gazes of the man and the cat met in mid-air. Lan Ke didn't know if it was his own illusion, but he felt that the other person's eyes seemed to be getting more and more wrong...

"Did you hear that?"

Tina's voice was as elegant as ever, but Lan Ke shook his head instinctively. It was a pity that the other party didn't seem to believe him.

Lan Ke's last memory on the Velvet was the pair of Mangosteens covering his eyes.

While Lan Ke and his assistant were "loving each other", Ito Makoto's situation was not good.

After Lan Ke confirmed that Makoto Ito's name appeared in the "Other World Navigation", he decisively went to the "Impression Space". Coincidentally, when Lan Ke finally found the location of "Makoto Ito (Shadow)" from the first level of the "Impression Space", the Kendo Club also finished its training for the day. Naturally, Katsura Kotonoha also saw the long-awaited Sekai Saionji, Setsuna Kiyoura and Makoto Ito.

Then, her originally tense expression visibly relaxed.

"Saionji-san, Kiyoura-san, Ito-san."

Compared to Katsura Kotonoha who greeted them meticulously, Saionji Sekai greeted them very enthusiastically.

"I already told you we're classmates, there's no need for honorifics..."

As she spoke of Saionji Sekai, she skillfully took the other person's arm, which made Katsura Kotonoha, who grew up in an aristocratic girls' school, seem a little at a loss, but in the end she resisted the instinct to push the other person away and instead smiled.

Although she is not good at physical contact, she does not hate the other person.

Why didn't she choose to continue her studies when she had always been attending an aristocratic girls' school, but instead chose Teitan High School?

The answer is very simple. Her mother found that although she had excellent grades, she was a little too introverted. Katsura Kotonoha's mother wanted her daughter to be more outgoing, so she helped her change schools. Naturally, Teitan High School with its free school atmosphere caught her eye.

But the other party got one thing wrong. His daughter's autistic personality cannot be alleviated simply by changing the environment.

Initially, it was indeed due to environmental reasons. Katsura Kotonoha's impressive figure, which far exceeded that of her peers, caused some girls to gossip about her behind her back. Coupled with the jealousy among the same sex, she basically had no one to talk to, which eventually led to her personality becoming more and more autistic.

If I had transferred schools earlier, maybe it wouldn't have been too troublesome, but now it's not just that.

People of the same sex gradually begin to reject her, while people of the opposite sex often unconsciously focus their attention on certain parts of her.

The combination of the two made her autism even worse, but at this time, the Saionji world appeared.

In the eyes of Katsura Kotonoha, Sekai Saionji, who took the initiative to approach her and introduced her to other circles, is undoubtedly her most important friend since she came to Teitan.

As for Ito Makoto, because of the Saionji world, the relationship between the two sides is not bad. In fact, because of Ito Makoto's "herbivorous personality" before his "awakening", she actually thinks that the other party is a good person, at least he doesn't have an expression as if he wants to eat her.

What about Qingpu Setsuna?

Compared to Sekai Saionji and Makoto Ito who took the initiative to approach, the relationship between the two sides can only be described as average, but because they do not exclude each other, their relationship is better than that of other girls in the same class.

Looking at Sekai Saionji and Kotonoha Katsura talking and laughing, Kiyoura Setsuna, who was following silently beside them, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Others may not know, but as a good friend of Saionji Sekai, doesn't she know it?

Her good friend Sekai Saionji likes Makoto Ito, and Makoto Ito likes Kotonoha Katsura. For this reason, Sekai Saionji takes the initiative to contact Kotonoha Katsura to help Makoto Ito to connect with her.

At first glance, the three parties seem to be getting along quite well, but her intuition tells her that this is because none of them have broken the ice. If they do, will the gentle Katsura Kotonoha accept the fact that she has taken away her friend's sweetheart? And will Saionji Sekai still consider Katsura Kotonoha, who has taken away her sweetheart, as a friend?

Thinking of this, she glanced at Ito Makoto's back with some displeasure.

If you like someone, why don't you confess your feelings? Why drag your friends into this?

If she had some feelings towards Ito Makoto before because of Saionji Sekai, then she became more and more disgusted with his slowness in the matter of Katsura Kotonoha.

However, she had discussed similar topics with Sekai Saionji, but the other party said that Kiyoura Setsuna was overthinking it. She, Ito Makoto, and Katsura Kotonoha were just friends, and she just wanted her friends to be happy.

Just looking at the look that Saionji Sekai unconsciously looked at Ito Makoto, Qingura Setsuna sighed again.

"Who else could I fool besides myself?"

But just as she was secretly criticizing Ito Makoto again, Ito Makoto, who was walking among the group, suddenly changed his expression.

“Woo~!!”

Makoto Ito, who was originally silently admiring the interaction between the two beautiful girls and fantasizing about his future life with girls on both sides, suddenly covered his heart and sobbed.

Chapter 26 I chose the Pure Love Line!!

"Ah Cheng!!"

Saionji Sekai, who was originally standing next to Katsura Kotonoha, noticed the abnormality of Ito Makoto behind him at the first time and rushed to his side to support him.

It’s a pity that Ito Makoto could not hear the voice of Saionji Sekai at this time. He just instinctively leaned his body on the other person because there was a voice constantly echoing in his ears.

"Is that man last night really your father? Did he offer you any favors besides taking you out for dinner? If he really is, why would he look for you given his wealth?"

The questioning voice, like the whisper of a devil, made Ito Makoto pale.

This was not only because he felt short of breath and dizzy, but also because he was unconsciously thinking about the problems in his mind.

It's not that he hasn't thought about these problems, but everyone has a sense of luck. On one side is a bright future, and on the other side is an ordinary life. As long as the dream has not been shattered, people will always choose the answer they most want to hear, and he is no exception.

But when someone burst his bubble-like dream and made him fall heavily from the clouds to the ground, he finally began to reflect.

Even with the help of Saionji Sekai, can he really catch up with the other party?

Will the other person's family allow me to date her?

Compared to Katsura Kotonoha who seems to be standing in the clouds and is difficult to reach, perhaps the world of Saionji who has always been silently by his side is more suitable for him?

Memories began to flash back.

When he asked the other party to help him pursue Katsura Kotonoha, although he smiled and said, "Acheng, you have grown up too," there seemed to be a hint of loss in his eyes.

He had always taken the other party's efforts for granted, but now he was looking back at everything that had happened before.

He suddenly realized something.

"world……"

Ito Makoto's weak call made Saionji Sekai, who was barely supporting himself, look at him almost instinctively, but before she could ask him what had happened, Ito Makoto spoke again.

"Will you date me?"

"??"

"!!"

"...?"

When Ito Makoto suddenly felt unwell, Saionji Sekai rushed to his side first, but Katsura Kotonoha and Kiyoura Setsuna were a step slower.

That's right, although Kiyoura Setsuna hated Ito Makoto for making her friend sad, she would not ignore his safety. However, she never dreamed that after she arrived, she would hear his confession.

If Saionji Sekai looked a little overwhelmed because her "CPU" burned out due to being too excited, and Katsura Kotonoha had no idea what was going on, then as the only one who knew the whole story and remained calm, she was completely surprised.

For a moment she even had an extremely strange idea.

Could it be that the other party is trying to make a feint to the east and attack in the west?

What is a feint to the east and attack in the west?

For example, getting close to the other person under the pretext of asking for help from Saionji Sekai, and then taking this opportunity to confess your feelings?

No, no, this logic is not quite right.

Qingpu Shanna felt his head was a mess and he was a little confused about what was going on.

But after a brief moment of surprise, Saionji Sekai finally reacted and could hardly control her emotions.

"Ah Cheng..."

Although she was extremely happy in her heart, she could not control the tears in her eyes. In the end, she didn't know whether it was to hide her embarrassed appearance or because she couldn't control her emotions, she completely hugged Ito Makoto in her arms.

Feeling the warm and soft body in his arms, Ito Makoto's originally rapid breathing seemed to be soothed by the other party.

Although it was painful to fall from a height, he felt extremely relieved when his feet were on the ground.

At this time, the only person who didn't know what was going on was probably Katsura Yanye, but one of them was her "friend" and the other was a "not bad opposite sex" in her eyes. She was still happy for them from the bottom of her heart that they could be together.

However, Sekai Saionji and Makoto Ito did not hug for too long, after all, they were still in a "public place".
