[After Jiang Cheng said this, he stood up and fled the scene. 】

【"Jiangcheng!"】

【"where are you going--"】

[The voices of Raiden Mei and Bronya are heard from behind.However, Jiang Cheng did not stop. 】

[The two of them did not catch up. 】

[Then—I ran for an unknown distance. 】

[When Jiang Cheng ran to the road where there was no one around, his body was suddenly enveloped by a strange floating feeling. 】

【"This is--"】

[Jiang Cheng remembers this feeling.This is Hyperion's teleportation device. 】

[As he expected, a moment later, the scene in front of Jiang Cheng changed from a corner of the park where no pedestrians passed, to the interior of Hyperion. 】

["——Fortunately you are safe and sound."]

[Then, such a voice came from behind Jiang Cheng.Turning her head, she saw Theresa with a dark red military uniform draped over her shoulders, standing there with a solemn expression. 】

【"Theresa."】

["You finally moved to a position where you can teleport. I called you many times."]

[After Theresa said this, Jiang Cheng reached out and touched his right ear, and then opened his eyes wide. 】

["...The headset...is missing."]

[That's right, the headset that was always worn in Jiang Cheng's right ear when performing tasks has disappeared.It seemed to have been dropped somewhere... Jiang Cheng didn't notice this until now. 】

["Did it fall? When did it fall?"]

["...Sorry, I don't know."]

[Jiang Cheng replied like this.Then, Theresa mumbled a few words softly and put her hand on her chin. 】

["...If we follow common sense, it should be when Rita attacked...? Then the voice just now——"]

["What's wrong...?"]

[Hearing Jiang Cheng’s question, Theresa sighed softly and shook her head. 】

["It's nothing - I'll help you treat your wounds first. Come with me."]

["...Ah...but, Raiden Mei and Bronya——"]

["When Raiden Meiyi is alone, Hyperion will pick her up on the ship and briefly explain to her what happened. As for Bronya - well, it shouldn't matter if she is left alone. When we get to school tomorrow Let’s make amends again.”]

【"Yeah……"】

[After Jiang Cheng responded weakly, he walked behind Theresa. 】

【"……Hello."】

[On the way, Jiang Cheng spoke to Theresa’s back. 】

【"what?"】

["I--is what we did really right...?"]

[The footsteps echoing in the passage suddenly stopped, and Theresa cast her sharp eyes in the direction of Jiangcheng. 】

["What do you mean by this...?"]

["...I am willing to help you because...I do not allow humans to attack unreasonably Herrschers who unintentionally cause collapse, so I am willing to help you."]

【"……Yes, that's right."】

["But...Rita killed——"]

【Kill humans.Not by collapse, but by your own hands and your own will. 】

[This made Jiang Cheng feel quite sad and scared. 】

【"what do you want to say in the end?"】

【"I can not do it……"】

[Jiang Cheng——Finally said these words. 】

["The reason why I was able to complete the task smoothly in the past was because Raiden Mei and Xi'er happened to be kind-hearted Herrschers... As a result... I ended up with nothing-"]

[At this time, Jiang Cheng stopped speaking - to be precise, he was interrupted. 】

[Because Theresa grabbed Jiang Cheng’s lapel and slapped Jiang Cheng hard. 】

["...What a guy without perseverance...!"]

[While Jiang Cheng was stunned on the spot, Theresa wrinkled her face and said so.In other words, that expression was actually closer to tears, but not necessarily - but Jiang Cheng couldn't tell the difference now. 】

["'I... can't do it...?' Humph, don't complain about the smallest things! You were obviously very courageous in the past, weren't you...!"]

【"what are you saying--"】

[Unable to understand what Theresa said, Jiang Cheng asked rhetorically while holding his cheek. 】

[However, Theresa did not answer this question and just continued to grab Jiang Cheng’s lapel. 】

["You...haven't you met a more terrifying Herrscher! Didn't you successfully save her! Don't just say that you can't do it. If you give up, Rita will kill more Man. Mana and Rita——will continue to strangle their own souls! Only you——can stop them...!"]

[After listening to Theresa’s words, Jiang Cheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva. 】

[Although I don’t know whether the “more terrifying Herrscher” that Theresa refers to is Raiden Mei or Seele—but the second half of those words is quickly imprinted in my mind. 】

[Yes, if Rita is left alone, Rita who is resurrected after being killed will continue to kill people. 】

[Jiang Cheng was silent and held his forehead with his hands. 】

[I don’t want Rita to continue killing people. 】

[Also—I don’t want Rita to be killed again. 】

[There is nothing false, this is Jiang Cheng’s truth.In order to realize this wish, what actions must Jiang Cheng take? 】

[The answer is already clear to me. 】

["...that's right."]

[After finishing speaking, he walked forward with shaky steps. 】

["Ah, wait a minute...!"]

[Then, Theresa chased after her in a panic. 】

["In order to prevent Rita from continuing to kill people, her power must be sealed. In order to prevent the Valkyrie from continuing to kill Rita...so I have to do it. I understand...Are you satisfied with this?" 】

【"Um."】

[For some reason, Theresa’s voice revealed a trace of uneasiness. 】

【That night.Jiang Cheng lay on the sofa in the living room and thought over and over again. 】

[Staring blankly at the light of the light bulb installed on the ceiling, he let out a long, thin sigh. 】

【Rita will definitely come to school tomorrow. 】

[In this way, I will perform the mission again. 】

[Increase Rita's favorability, kiss her, and seal the power. 】

【As long as you do this, all problems will be solved. 】

[Rita will not continue to kill people, so naturally, Rita will not be killed by the Valkyrie. 】

[This is the only way that Jiang Cheng recognizes and can achieve a perfectly happy ending - but...]

[As if something heavy was pressing down on me, my whole body felt heavy and weak.Jiang Cheng exhaled melancholy air from his lungs. 】

[Then—at this moment, the sound of the entrance door being opened came from the other side of the corridor. 】

【"Um……?"】

[Jiang Cheng raised his heavy body and looked towards the entrance and exit of the living room. 】

[The person who can enter the house directly without pressing the doorbell... Normally, it should be Theresa, right?However, Teresa said she would stay on the ship to take care of business today.In that case - who could it be? 】

[While Jiang Cheng was thinking about these things, the door to the living room was opened, and Raiden Mei cautiously poked her head out. 】

["Thunder and Lightning Mei...?"]

["...Hmm. Can I go in?"]

[Asking this question after already entering someone else's home seems a bit reversed in order - but let's put these details aside for now. 】

["Oh...oh, of course."]

[Thunder Meiyi nodded lightly and entered the living room, then walked to Jiang Cheng's side. 】

["Jiang Cheng...can I touch you?"]

[We are already very close to Jiangcheng, but Raiden Meiyi still asked this question specifically.Perhaps it was because Raiden Mei was still quite concerned about being waved off in the park. 】

["Ah...ah, that's okay."]

[Jiang Cheng replied like this.Leiden Meiyi climbed onto the sofa, and then squeezed in between the sofa and Jiangcheng. 】

【"What are you doing……?"】

["Don't ask, just be quiet."]

[After Leiden Meiyi finished speaking, he put his hands around Jiang Cheng's body and hugged Jiang Cheng tightly from behind. 】

["Thunder and Lightning Mei Yi? This... what on earth is this..."]

[Jiang Cheng felt the soft touch against his back and sweat broke out on his forehead. He said this. 】

["...Yeah. Because it was said on TV that when you feel lonely or scared, doing this can make people feel better."]

[Just like that, I don’t know how much time passed.Raiden Meiyi suddenly opened her lips and said. 】

["...Kiana, tell me the matter."]

【"whats the matter……?"】

["The matter about Rita. Because I asked about the reason for Jiang Cheng's abnormality - so she told me."]

["...is...is it..."]

[Jiang Cheng said this after swallowing a mouthful of saliva. 】

[Kiana actually doesn't want Raiden Mei to know about Herrscher and Valkyrie...so the reason why she did this must be because if Raiden Mei is not told, Raiden Mei's mental state will become unstable. Bar. 】

["Jiang Cheng. Do you still remember what I said to you when I lived in your house before...?"]

【"Huh……?"】

[After Jiang Cheng asked a rhetorical question, Raiden Meiyi continued:]

["If another Herrscher like me appears... please be sure to save her."]

【"Ahh——"】

[Jiang Cheng nodded slightly.Jiang Cheng remembered that sentence quite clearly. 】

【Yes.Jiang Cheng agreed to Leiden Meiyi's request at that time.There was nothing false about that feeling at the time, and even now, that determination has not wavered. 】

["But, Rita is..."]

["——She is just like me."]

【"what?"】

[Thunder and Lightning Meiyi pressed her face against Jiang Cheng’s back. 】

["...I...was accompanied by Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng saved me - but Rita was alone. The time she had experienced without anyone lending a helping hand to her was even longer than me. .”]

[Thunder Meiyi tightened her arms hard, so hard that it almost hurt. 】

["If it weren't for Jiang Cheng, if I were left in the same state as two months ago, constantly and constantly in a state of murderous intent and hostility - I might become like Rita, but I don't necessarily know."]

["How...how can-"]

[Only halfway through, Jiang Cheng stopped talking. 】

[Although it is quite hard to imagine now, the Raiden Meiyi who first met Jiangcheng two months ago was actually very decadent.Feeling tired, haggard, and exhausted from the never-ending war, his soul is on the verge of collapse. 】
