My and Their Anime-Style Otherworldly Survival Adventure

Xiao Yuan suddenly opened its eyes, its big, round eyes filled with terror. Its limbs flailed wildly in the air, as if trying to break free from Jiu Xiao's restraints. But Jiu Xiao's grip was strong enough to hold it firmly down.

"Nine, Lord Jiuxiao! What are you planning to do now?"

The word "again" is very clever; it shows that she has been bullied quite a bit by that bastard Jiu Xiao recently.

"What for? Of course, I'm going to... cough cough cough, nothing much, I just want you to cooperate with me on an experiment. Xiaoyuan, you don't want everyone to see you behaving inappropriately later, do you?"

The familiar posture, the familiar opening lines—a sense of foreboding washed over Xiaoyuan. He stammered nervously, "W-W-Wait, don't do anything rash! It's still daytime..."

Jiuxiao replied cheekily, "Oh? So that means it can be done tonight?"

Ignoring Xiaoyuan's weak resistance, Jiuxiao half-pushed and half-forced her to go behind a tree. This place not only blocked everyone's view, but it was also some distance from the camp, so the sound wouldn't carry too far. It was truly one of the most fake locations for the "experiment".

Jiu Xiao first grabbed Xiao Yuan's hand and activated his ability, but unsurprisingly, there was no response. Then Jiu Xiao hugged Xiao Yuan in his arms and activated his ability again, but still there was no response.

Xiao Yuan, already blushing, had no idea what Jiu Xiao was up to, but since he said it was an experiment, she decided to play along, albeit strangely. She trusted that Jiu Xiao wouldn't harm her, and she also wanted to know what he was up to.

After two unsuccessful attempts, Jiu Xiao looked at Xiao Yuan's slightly trembling pink lips. After silently apologizing to her, Jiu Xiao covered her lips with his. This time, when Jiu Xiao activated his ability, a warm current flowed into his body from where they touched.

At the same time, Xiaoyuan's delicate body trembled slightly, and she also felt a warm current flowing out of her body, but it came from...

Before he could even examine the acquired skill, Jiu Xiao sensed that Xiao Yuan was acting strangely. Even with just a simple touch of their lips, he noticed she was already panting heavily. Her eyes were unfocused, and her body felt limp, as if all the bones had been removed, leaving her slumped softly in his arms.

Jiu Xiao quickly scooped Xiao Yuan up in a princess carry, otherwise she would have fallen to the ground. When his hand accidentally touched her thigh, Jiu Xiao noticed something was off about Xiao Yuan's area... He was certain it wasn't "unchanted water magic," because the feel was nine-tenths off...

Is this "glutinous rice ball juice"?

P.S.: Did I write something a bit too simplistic?

Please, since I've been updating every day, could you please vote for me? The data is really bad, around 50 average subscriptions per day is just ridiculous. I've revised it so many times but it still won't pass. Please, editor, have mercy! QAQ

Chapter 81 I'll take care of you

He ran his fingers over Xiaoyuan's thigh, the slippery sensation making Jiuxiao blush. Although he knew the system's skill was indecent, he hadn't expected it to be so slutty. He resolved to seal the skill, otherwise he feared he'd be beaten up by the indignant girls sooner or later.

Holding Xiaoyuan, who was still in a daze, Jiuxiao began to examine the skills he had acquired.

Heal: Consumes magic power to quickly restore injuries and abnormal statuses to oneself or others. The amount of magic power consumed depends on the severity of the injury and the number of abnormal statuses. As long as there is enough magic power, even fatal wounds can be fully restored.

Wow! This is practically an upgraded version of Madoka's skills! Not only can it heal, but it can also remove debuffs. I just don't know how versatile the term "abnormal status" is here. Not only do debuffs fall under the category of abnormal statuses, but buffs can also be considered abnormal statuses to some extent. If that's the case, then this is an amazing skill that excels in both offense and defense.

While Jiuxiao was pondering these questions, Xiaoyuan finally snapped out of her daze. Feeling the cool sensation under her skirt, she immediately knew what had happened. After all, it wasn't the first time she'd faced such an embarrassing situation... Her face flushed red, and Xiaoyuan cried out in a panic, "Jiu, Jiuxiao-jun! Put me down!" As she spoke, she struggled violently in Jiuxiao's arms.

Caught off guard, Jiu Xiao almost dropped her to the ground.

"Hey, be gentle, I can barely hold you. Look at you, struggling so hard, your skirt is all flipped up. I didn't realize Xiaoyuan was so daring today, wearing black." As he spoke, Jiuxiao put Xiaoyuan down.

Having escaped the clutches of evil, Xiao Yuan immediately squatted down on the ground, clasped her hands together, and loudly protested, "It's...it's not black! I always wear white! Black is only occasional...You, you actually tricked me! Jiu Xiao, you big idiot!"

Xiao Yuan suddenly felt weak all over and collapsed to the ground... This is the weakness that only a hothouse flower has. Is it really okay for a magical girl to be so innocent? Anyway, it's not like we haven't seen it before.

"Waaaaah... It's happening again... I'll never be able to get married..."

Xiao Yuan knelt on the ground and began to sob.

Jiuxiao felt a sense of unease. He had accidentally made Xiaoyuan cry again... He felt like he had done something very wrong.

"I'm...I'm sorry...Don't cry, okay? I promise, it won't happen again next time."

With his hands raised above his head, Jiu Xiao, giving a French military salute, approached Xiao Yuan and slowly squatted down.

Xiao Yuan rolled her eyes and glared at Jiu Xiao. If looks could kill, Jiu Xiao would have snapped countless times already. After wiping away her tears with her uniform sleeve, Xiao Yuan clenched her fists and delivered two powerful punches to Jiu Xiao's chest.

It's clear that Xiaoyuan is genuinely angry this time. Jiuxiao is quite something to have managed to bully the gentle Xiaoyuan to this extent.

Jiu Xiao was punched a few times by Xiao Yuan. Although it didn't hurt much, he could tell that Xiao Yuan was really angry. He was annoyed. How could he have been so careless? He made her cry and then got hit. He could only say that he had only himself to blame.

"Oh, Xiaoyuan, don't be angry. I really didn't mean it. How could such a cute Xiaoyuan not get married? Don't worry, I'll steal batteries to support you." Jiuxiao grinned and tried to take Xiaoyuan's hand, attempting to gain her forgiveness.

Xiao Yuan did not refuse, but let Jiu Xiao hold her hand.

“Jiuxiao Jun, stealing is wrong, it’s illegal. I can’t let you do something wrong because of me.” Xiaoyuan raised her head, with a few tears still in her eyes, but her gaze was unusually serious.

Jiu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly. He could only say that Xiao Yuan was indeed worthy of his name, always managing to get a scolding in unexpected places.

"Haha, I was just joking, Xiaoyuan, don't take it so seriously. Of course I wouldn't actually steal batteries, I'm a law-abiding citizen. It's just a joke, not that I'm really going to steal batteries. By the way, shouldn't the key point be that I'm the one supporting you?"

Xiao Yuan gently withdrew her hand, stood up, dusted herself off, and her cheeks flushed slightly. She had taken Jiu Xiao's joke seriously again and didn't know how to respond for a moment. She just lowered her head and muttered softly, "Who...who wants you to support them?"

Seeing this, Jiu Xiao quickly got up, gently wrapped his arms around Xiao Yuan's waist from behind, rested his head on her shoulder, and said in a gentle tone, "I just want to take care of you for the rest of my life. You can't escape. Just obediently submit to me."

Xiao Yuan's body trembled slightly, somewhat taken aback by Jiu Xiao's sudden marriage proposal. She felt Jiu Xiao's presence so close, and a strange emotion welled up in her heart, her cheeks burning even hotter.

"Nine...Nine Heavens Lord, you...you are like this to me..." Xiao Yuan's voice was very soft. She wanted to break free from Nine Heavens Lord's embrace, but she seemed reluctant to let go.

Jiu Xiao tightened his arms and said firmly, "What do you mean 'you'? Stay in my arms and don't move. I'm serious."

Xiao Yuan's struggling movements gradually stopped. She lowered her head, her long hair covering half of her face, revealing only her slightly trembling eyelashes and a shy blush. The two lingered like this for a while until a breeze blew by, bringing a touch of coolness, and Xiao Yuan gently pushed Jiu Xiao away.

"Lord Jiuxiao, let's... let's go back first, it's a bit cold here."

Jiu Xiao then realized they had been standing there for quite a while. He chuckled softly and released Xiao Yuan. Under her puzzled gaze, Jiu Xiao took out a new pair of panties and white stockings from his system space and handed them to her. Jiu Xiao awkwardly scratched his cheek and said, "Why don't you change first?"

Finally, after taking another punch, Jiu Xiao left the scene dejectedly under Xiao Yuan's resentful gaze.

Back on the way, Jiu Xiao rubbed his arm, which had just been lightly punched by Xiao Yuan, when he was caught red-handed by Sania walking towards him...

"stare......"

Sania activated her "Death Stare," and Jiuxiao immediately felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He smiled awkwardly and tried to change the subject, saying, "Hey, Sania, what a coincidence, what are you doing here?"

Sania did not respond to his greeting, maintaining that "death stare" posture, as if trying to see through to the depths of his heart.

"That's quite a coincidence. It would be even more coincidental if we ran into Xiaoyuan later. Don't you think so?"

Jiu Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he knew things were going badly. The affair was most likely exposed. Now he had no choice but to forcefully send her away. As long as they weren't caught in the act, it wouldn't be considered a complete mess!

Chapter 82 The Current Status of Black Bullets

"Ah, haha, Sanya, you've got it wrong. I actually... I came here to poop... cough cough cough, I came for a walk, yes, a walk. Now I'm going back, shall we walk together?"

Jiu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, almost blurting out his abstract online remarks. Luckily, he stopped himself in time, or he would have been mortified.

Before Sanya could refuse, Jiuxiao grabbed her arm and half-pushed her back the way they came. Sanya didn't resist and let him pull her along, but her sharp eyes remained fixed on Jiuxiao, as if trying to see into every corner of his heart.

Based on the principle that as long as he himself wasn't embarrassed, it was others who were embarrassed, Jiu Xiao pretended to be calm and continued walking, occasionally trying to find topics to chat about to divert her attention.

Back at camp, Jiu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, having narrowly escaped disaster. Sania didn't intend to pursue Jiu Xiao's "cheating," but simply sighed helplessly and said, "Hey, Jiu Xiao, you should really stop bullying Xiao Yuan. She's so innocent; aren't you afraid of making her cry?"

Upon hearing this, Jiu Xiao's face flashed with embarrassment. He had to admit, Jiu Xiao had a good eye for people... But he quickly put on a playful smile and said, "No, no, Sania, are you jealous?"

Upon hearing this, Sania blushed and glared at Jiuxiao, saying angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about! I won't be jealous of you."

Jiu Xiao chuckled, secretly pleased with himself; it seemed his teasing had had some effect. He leaned closer to Sania and whispered, "Oh dear, did I hit the nail on the head? Don't worry, my love for you is equal. How about we go inside and have a chat?"

Sania was completely helpless in the face of Jiuxiao's shamelessness. She couldn't bear to hit him, nor could she bring herself to scold him. In the end, she could only puff out her cheeks, pretend to be angry, and turn her head away, refusing to look at his smug face.

Seeing that he had successfully manipulated Sania, Jiu Xiao felt even more smug. He gently patted Sania's shoulder and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, enough joking around. Let's go take a nap. Spring drowsiness, summer fatigue, and autumn lethargy are all part of life. The afternoon sun is perfect for a short rest."

Sania had no intention of resisting the afternoon nap; she was naturally a rather sleepy person. So, she nodded slightly, tacitly agreeing to Jiuxiao's suggestion.

Back in the room, Jiu Xiao coaxed her to sleep, but he himself couldn't fall asleep at all. With nothing to do, Jiu Xiao opened the system page and saw that there were still seventy-two hours until the next world-traveling cooldown. He sighed, feeling a little anxious, wondering how Xiao Mu Geng was doing in the other world.

In the Black Bullet world, nine years have passed since Jiuxiao left. During this time, Kogisara has grown from an innocent little girl into a police officer. Perhaps due to the contraction of the timeline, although the Tendo couple did not choose to confront the clan because of Jiuxiao's advice before leaving, and because of Jiuxiao, Tendo Tomoya brought a lot of benefits and prestige to the clan, the clan did not carry out the Dark Shark Plan targeting them.

However, Kisara Tendo's parents passed away in a sudden car accident a year ago, leaving behind Kisara, who was still in the second year of junior high school. For the past nine long years, Kisara has constantly missed Kyuu and Fate. She remembers Kyuu's promise when he left and believes they will definitely come back for her.

A year after Jiuxiao left, Tiantong and his wife, worried about Jiuxiao and Fate's safety, used their family connections to inquire about their whereabouts. Unfortunately, they found no useful information; the two seemed to have vanished into thin air.

Not long after that, the country was divided into five regions due to the Gastrea Wars—Tokyo, Sapporo, Sendai, Osaka, and Hakata. Finding them became even more difficult after that, but the Tendo couple never gave up on their search for Kusho and Fate.

Like seeds deeply planted in Tendo Kisara's heart, Jiuxiao and Fate did not diminish with the passage of time; instead, they grew stronger. Whenever the night was still and quiet, she would gaze at the starry sky and silently pray that they were safe and well somewhere.

Five years after Jiuxiao and his companions left, the Second Gastrea War broke out, plunging the entire country into chaos and despair. The Tokyo area, where Tendo Kisara was located, was not spared either; the destruction and death brought by the war left the city ravaged.

Fortunately, thanks to the Nine Heavens, the "Metalstone" was built ahead of schedule. The Tokyo area retained more land and population than in the original story, and this was true not only for the Tokyo area, but for all countries in the world capable of building "Metalstones".

At the same time, Gastrea's abilities also evolved. Many Gastrea acquired special abilities, such as communication interference, long-range attacks, and even individuals capable of cloaking, making them even more difficult to deal with.

In the same year, some of the first children born after the war reached the age of four or five. Some of them, when emotionally excited or under intense stimulation, would suddenly exhibit special abilities similar to Gastrea, and their eyes would turn bright red like those of Gastrea. These children were known to the world as 'Children of the Curse'.

Their appearance undoubtedly added another layer of gloom to this already turbulent world. People feared and rejected these children, believing them to be the product of Gastrea and humans, the source of disaster. These children became a new destabilizing factor in society, and further solidified humanity's fear and rejection of Gastrea.

Unsurprisingly, Jiu Xiao's interview video from five years ago was unearthed by some people with ulterior motives. This is because, in the interview five years ago, Jiu Xiao "predicted" these events, whether it was the evolution of Gastrea or the emergence of humans with Gastrea abilities.

Therefore, the video quickly went viral online again. While attracting widespread attention, the video's ending, which called for people to treat these "humans with Gastrea-like abilities" with kindness, gained significant traction.

Many people have begun to re-examine Jiu Xiao's statements from back then, especially when she referred to these "humans with Gastrea abilities" as "she" instead of "he." People realized that Jiu Xiao might indeed possess the ability to foresee the future, because all those who awakened Gastrea abilities were women, without exception.

After that, Jiuxiao vanished as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth, and no one knew his whereabouts. Jiuxiao became a popular topic of conversation among people.

P.S.: The Black Bullet storyline officially begins tomorrow.

Chapter 83: The Door Opens and the Kills! (4K)

However, this period of prosperity was short-lived. As the Gastrea war intensified, more and more people perished. People gradually transferred their discontent and anger to the "Cursed Children," believing them to be the source of misfortune. Although Nine Heavens' "prophecy" and the appeals in the video once attracted widespread attention, people's goodwill and rationality were gradually eroded by the pressure of survival and the fear of the unknown.

When the first "Cursed Child's" corruption rate exceeded fifty percent, transforming him into a powerful and destructive monster that wreaked havoc in the city, panic and despair quickly spread. This event became the final straw that broke the camel's back, and the "Cursed Child" became a universally despised pariah.

Society's rejection and persecution of the "Children of the Curse" reached unprecedented levels. They were driven from cities, forced to live in abandoned buildings or desolate wilderness, suffering immense torment. Human persecution of them never ceased; the weak only turned their weapons on the weaker. Those humans who lacked the courage to confront Gastrea head-on vented their rage and fear on these innocent "Children of the Curse." They became victims of human society, burdened with undeserved accusations, struggling to survive in misery.

The government's inaction has further fueled this unhealthy trend. Faced with the plight of the "cursed children," the government should have shouldered its responsibility to protect the vulnerable, formulate relevant policies, and ensure their basic human rights. However, the government chose silence and neglect, and even, in some cases, tacitly approved the persecution of the "cursed children" by the public. The reason is simple—the public's anger and fear need an outlet, and the government is unwilling or afraid to touch this sensitive social nerve. Against this backdrop, persecuting the "cursed children" has become politically correct.

The Tokyo high-ranking officials, led by the Tendo family, were among the most prominent. This was because the wife of the Tendo family head, Tendo Kikunojo, died in the Gastrea War, which made him deeply hate Gastrea and develop a strong hatred for children with the Gastrea virus (i.e., the cursed children).

Although Tomoya Tendo, the father of Kisara Tendo, escaped punishment by not confronting the Tendo family's corruption despite being advised by Kusho, he was deeply dissatisfied with the family's political policies and, unable to change anything, chose to leave the family five years ago. After three more years of peaceful life, the Tendo couple ultimately could not escape the self-correction of history, both dying in a car accident. Just as Kusho's words did not change the fate of the "cursed child."

Fortunately, Kisara Tendo no longer had anyone to seek revenge against, and unlike in the original story, he no longer needed to undergo frequent dialysis to stay alive. After the deaths of the Tendo couple, Kisara Tendo moved out of his mansion in Minato Ward and lived alone in Kushou's villa in Shinjuku.

Firstly, she wanted to leave that heartbreaking place filled with memories of her parents and find a new beginning. Secondly, deep down, she still cherished a profound longing and expectation for the promise she made to Jiu Xiao and the others. All alone, Tian Tong Mu Geng had only the promise she made to Jiu Xiao nine years ago—"I will definitely come back to see you"—as her emotional anchor.

On the isolated island, on Jiuxiao's side. With the system's portal cooldown complete, Jiuxiao once again stood before the gate connecting the two worlds. This time, he planned to bring all the girls with him. Filled with anticipation and trepidation, Jiuxiao opened the gate to the Black Bullet world. A dazzling light instantly filled the entire space, firmly connecting the two different dimensions. He, along with Fate, Madoka, and Sania, stepped into this world that was both familiar and strange.

In Shinjuku, Tokyo, Tendo Kisara practices kendo in the villa's courtyard after school, as usual. Sweat drips down her forehead, landing on the sword tip, which is bathed in the golden light of the setting sun. Every movement she makes is full of power and determination, as if she is releasing long-suppressed emotions in this way, while also constantly improving herself.

Since being rescued by Kusho and Fate from a Gastrea attack nine years ago, Tendo Kisara has been training in kendo, and now she is a kendo master who has been granted the title of Tendo-ryu Battojutsu.

After completing her daily training, Tendo Kisara returned to the villa's living room. Just as she changed out of her sweat-soaked practice clothes, a sudden white light illuminated the room. When the light faded, a large door appeared, slowly opening, and four people emerged from it.

The sudden turn of events made Tendoki stare in astonishment, her discarded clothes slipping from her hands and falling to the ground. She could hardly believe her eyes. Faced with the sudden appearance of three women and one man, she instinctively reached for her waist, only to find that the short knife she usually carried was lying to the side along with the discarded clothes.

Without time to think, Tendo Kisara assumed a fighting stance, warily eyeing the group before him, and asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Who... are you? Why are you here?"

Staring at the girl in her underwear, Jiu Xiao, who was walking at the front, was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses. From her appearance and the surroundings, Jiu Xiao immediately recognized her as the girl he had been longing for, Tian Tong Musang.

He just hadn't expected so much time to have passed. That little rascal who once only reached his chest had now grown into a graceful young woman. His black bra and panties accentuated his curvaceous figure, and sweat dripped from his abs, flowing over his mysterious triangle, finally gathering into beads of sweat on his fair and slender thighs.

Oh, no? You're using this to test your cadres? Which cadre could withstand this kind of test?

Jiuxiao waved his hand, feigning ignorance, and said, "Oh, isn't this Xiaomugeng? Long time no see!"

Kisara Tendo was completely bewildered, but the familiar voice and the familiar figure from her memory slowly overlapped. She spoke uncertainly, "Big brother? Is it really you? But... nine years have passed... why do you look like this..."

Jiu Xiao coughed lightly and looked away. "Ahem, I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush."

Pointing to Mu Geng's body, Jiu Xiao continued, "I like your way of welcoming me, but you'll catch a cold if you don't put your clothes on..."

Only then did Kisara Tendo realize that she was still half-naked. Her cheeks instantly flushed red. She hurriedly squatted down and, with lightning speed, protected her "front armor," letting out a cry of "Ah!" She then hurriedly picked up her clothes from the ground and frantically put them on.

Realizing what was happening, Xiaoyuan quickly covered Jiuxiao's eyes.

"Nine Heavens Lord, you are not allowed to look!"

Xiaoyuan's tone was somewhat reproachful, and a blush appeared on her face, clearly taken aback by the scene before her.

Jiuxiao smiled awkwardly and quickly turned away, but inwardly he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Thank you for the treat!"

After Tendo Kisara was dressed, Madoka finally released her hand from covering Kusho's eyes. Tendo Kisara straightened her clothes, her face regaining its usual composure, but the doubt in her eyes lingered.

At this moment, Fate, who was behind Jiuxiao, also stepped forward, smiled, and extended her hand to Tendo Kisara, saying gently, "Kisara, it's been a long time. I'm Fate, do you remember me?"

Tendo Kisara stared at Fate, whose figure was exactly the same as it had been nine years ago, utterly bewildered. She rubbed her tangled hair and said, "Let me calm down. What's going on? Why, after nine years, do you two, Fate and Big Brother, look exactly the same? And the way you appear..."

Jiuxiao turned around and explained, "The matter is complicated, but to put it simply..."

Jiuxiao told Mugeng everything about his origins and his identity as a time traveler. Mugeng was overwhelmed by the amount of information and felt dizzy. She blinked, trying to process it all. Jiuxiao's talk of time travel and parallel worlds seemed like a fantasy to her. How could such absurd things exist in the world? But the facts were right in front of her, leaving her no choice but to believe it.

Tian Tongmu took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She looked at Jiu Xiao, her eyes flashing with complex emotions: "So, you really are from another world?"

Jiuxiao nodded and answered affirmatively, "That's right, we are indeed not from this world. I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth back then. Although I don't know how many years you've spent here, we've only spent a short month in another world."

Tendou Kisara was silent for a moment, as if she was thinking about something. Then, she raised her head and looked at Jiuxiao with a firm gaze: "I don't care where you come from, I only know that you are my friends."
