However, it is clear that vines have climbed onto countless buildings along the way.

With Enkidu's arrival, the endless thorny vines seemed to possess a sense of self.

It transforms from a static state into a rhythmic movement with rules.

Then, it stabbed Enkidu at a tricky angle.

In the end, Enkidu stopped trying to avoid it and let the vines approach him.

But just before it was touched, it turned to ashes and disappeared.

"Sigh~ a 10% off water bottle?"

Looking at these vines, Enkidu didn't even want to bother with them this time.

[Skyfire! Unsheathed!]

Enkidu fulfilled his childhood dream, achieving his greatest accomplishment as a child and bringing glory to half the school.

Then, he slowly looked up at the top of a building and said with a smile.

"This welcome ceremony for senior is really lively. As a senior, I am very happy to be welcomed by juniors. But junior, don't you know that sometimes being too enthusiastic can cause annoyance?"

"Whether in school or in the realm of Herrschers, she's my junior, the pseudo-Herrscher of Chiba Academy—Miss Yuno..."

At the top of the building.

A girl with light purple hair (though I don’t know why it looks a bit like Fu Hua’s hair color in the manga) remained unmoved after hearing Enkidu’s words.

Her eyes were lifeless at this moment, and there were several corpses of Chiba Academy students around her.

The vines extend outwards from Yuno as the center.

When Enkidu met Yuno, whose eyes were lifeless, Enkidu was the first to feel a sense of despair.

'Why...why are you bullying me...'

My parents always beat and scold me. Is it because I've done something wrong...?

'My body feels so heavy, my mind feels so light... Who am I again...?'

Countless negative emotions surged towards Enkidu, along with scattered fragments of memories.

Enkidu, as an observer, continuously peruses these memories.

'Wow~ What a tragic character, her story is kind of like a combination of Matsuzaka Satou and Watsuki Yuno...'

Enkidu witnessed the same treatment Raiden Mei received when her family lost power, both at home and at school.

He glanced at the group of people who were bullying Yuno, and then at the group of people lying on the ground being drained of their blood.

Hmm...it all matches up, so I guess he deserves it.

Enkidu then took out the Feather of the People from the Wisdom of the People.

They launched a direct mental attack, attempting to enter Yuno's mental world and view more of her memories.

Close your eyes, and you'll see Lincoln's four heads! After a moment of weightlessness, Enkidu is... huh?

Qianyu Academy? ? ?

It was dismissal time at Qianyu Academy, and countless students walked along chatting and laughing.

Enkidu appeared at the gate, and just as he was about to check if he had gone to the wrong place, he saw Yuno's figure flash by.

Although all the students are black and white, Yuno definitely has color.

You stand out so much at first glance.

'It is indeed her memory, so there must be memories here that had a profound impact on her.'

Enkidu hurriedly followed, wanting to see what it was that made her impression so profound.

Then Enkidu saw another version of himself...

Yuno's thoughts followed closely behind.

Is that the school's emperor? He's so handsome. If I could be friends with him, would I stop being bullied?

Enkidu's expression was strange, because in Yuno's mental world, this was the first time she had seen herself.

Even Mei next to her turned into a faceless, black-and-white female passerby.

But from her perspective, Enkidu is in color.

Looking at this girl hiding in the corner, who only dared to peek occasionally.

Enkidu finally understood why he hadn't noticed it before.

Such glances are like those of a passerby, easily swept past, and no one would pay any attention to them.

Then came the transformation of his surroundings, and Enkidu saw Yuno's parents again.

I witnessed the school's 80s.

'None of these people died innocently.'

Enkidu looked at Yuno, who was smiling contentedly even after eating her fill, and felt a pang of pity for her.

It's truly tragic.

Memories accelerated again; it was a night.

I got kicked out of school by my parents again. I only came in second place; I don't deserve to stay at home...

Yuno sat by the roadside like a stray cat, curled up because of the cold of the night.

Enkidu looked at the scene and seemed to vaguely remember it, and began to think about it.

At the same time, he kept a close eye on the screen.

"Hmm? We can't just sit and wait to die when something happens. Do you need any help?"

A gust of wind blew past Yuno, and then it seemed to blow back.

I stood in front of her.

'Oh, so I said something really stupid back then...'

Enkidu remembered everything!

Chapter 165 Even Men...

Although he complained about his own foolishness, Enkidu shone brightly in Yuno's eyes.

The arrival of the host made Yuno, whose eyes had been dull, raise her head.

Enkidu also saw himself reflected in Yuno's eyes.

He immediately covered his eyes, 'Holy crap, a flashbang!!!'

Yuno saw the campus celebrity she had seen many times at school, the one everyone admired, appear in front of her.

His eyes lit up as he looked at Enkidu's outstretched hand.

"My grades were terrible, so I got kicked out..."

A voice devoid of warmth and emotion came through.

Yuno didn't hold Enkidu's hand; she just shrank back a little in fear.

However, Enki didn't care about any of that and helped Yuno up without her noticing.

"Alright, beautiful girl, don't be so downcast! Here, I'll lend you some money. Take care of yourself tonight, maybe things will get better later. I'll be going now. Take care of yourself!"

After saying that, before Yuno could refuse, Enkidu had already left in her sight.

This also reminded Enkidu, who was watching the memories.

I never expected that the female passerby I casually saved was actually Yuno.

Unfortunately, I was too busy being a Night Elf hero at the time to notice.

But this money should be enough for her to live comfortably...

Enkidu looked at Yuno's memories with some confusion.

The next milestone is near; it doesn't seem like things will get better once you have your own money.

Soon we met Enkidu.

In my memory, Yuno had money but didn't spend it, but her eyes seemed brighter.

She still occasionally glances at herself, but it's clear that she's starting to feel more positive.

Until she returned home...

Snapped!

As the crisp sound rang out, Enkidu noticed that his vision was somewhat blurred.

Then came words filled with negative emotions.

"You piece of trash, you've actually learned to steal money! Tell me! When did you steal it?!"

Immediately afterward, without listening to Yuno's explanation, the two began to hit and verbally abuse her.

But this time, Yuno held tightly to the coins in her chest.

This was the kindness she hadn't received in a long time, and it was her only hope for life.

Afterwards, as if they were exhausted from fighting, the two of them, panting heavily, threw the battered Yuno onto the street.

The memories turned dark again, but it was still not over.

After an unknown amount of time, Yuno woke up and shakily crawled to a corner.

She curled up as usual, as if it were a habit, but this time she was clutching a few banknotes tightly in her hand.

Yuno silently scanned her surroundings, her eyelids gradually becoming heavy, as if urging her to fall asleep.

'Ah... I'm so tired... Would it be easier to just die like this...? Will anyone be sad for me after I die? Even a little bit...? I didn't even get to say thank you to Enkidu in the end...'

Just before I fell completely asleep, I heard what sounded like someone's questioning voice.

When Yuno regained consciousness, she found herself facing an unfamiliar ceiling...?

It was Enkidu again, who picked up Yuno again on his way home to rest after defeating the Honkai Beasts.

The complex injuries made it clear to him at a glance that this was domestic violence!

Quickly pick up the girl from the roadside and take her to the hospital.

Yuno checked her pockets immediately after waking up, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she found that the banknotes were not missing. She covered her face with her umbrella and looked around.

I immediately noticed Enkidu reading a book to the side.

"Ah, yes... yes..."

Yuno stammered for a moment, unable to speak.

"Hmm? You're awake. How are you feeling? The doctor said you have a fractured rib and severe malnutrition."

Enkidu was just like the prince she had imagined—gentle and considerate.

Yuno's language system became disordered for a moment.

"Um... thank you!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it was very clear to Enkidu.

"It was just a small favor. But you, if you need help, you can contact me. And don't go out alone at night; pretty girls can be very dangerous."

Listening to Enkidu's teachings, Yuno carefully memorized every word.

This concern from a stranger stirred up some of her emotions.

"Well, I have other things to do. I've already paid the medical bills, and you can be discharged normally tomorrow morning."

"S-Sen...Senpai! Thank you for last time!"

Noticing that Enkidu was about to leave, Yuno suddenly clenched the hem of her clothes.

Enkidu turned his head.

"You know this is the second time I've helped you, so... do you need help?"

Seeing Enkidu's outstretched hand, Yuno wanted to shake it.
