Although the opponent will not become an elf if he does not meet special conditions, he is still a vicious and brutal elf hunter Devil. If it is an elf, then Ratatosk and Fraxinus have only one target.
"There is no time to lose. Sister, take action tomorrow. At the latest, you must ask her to come out within this week. I will explain to Kamika and ask her to protect you. After all, the opponent is a reversed body, and we must prepare for the worst. As for changing the world, sister, don't worry, we will keep it confidential."
"No thanks. I've already made an appointment with Origami and Kamikami to go out together on Saturday."
Although Kamikami and Origami didn't know that there was a third person going out this time.
"Oh? I didn't expect you to be so enthusiastic this time. You've made progress." Kotori nodded approvingly with the Chupa Pearl in her mouth.
However, Shiori did not react much, but kept thinking about the hypothesis that Reine said in his mind.
What if we add a condition to this, that is, dying in a timeline that does not belong to oneself? Then is the Hanyu Manre that Shiori met before the same as Origami? If so, what is the switch to switch personality?
Most importantly, is it really a good idea to bring back Zhenlian who already has a family?
Whether Shiori likes it or not, the way Manrei died, Manrei's ruthless appearance, and Manrei's happy appearance in her own home all reappear in Shiori's mind.
Grief, despair, pain, helplessness, guilt, contradiction, everything once again poured into Shiori's brain like a tide, and the feeling of suffocation came over Shiori again.
【Really kind-hearted... Really kind-hearted! 】
The next second, Shiori's brain went blank, and then the world in his eyes suddenly turned upside down, and his head hit the ground hard. The last thing he saw was Kotori and Reine rushing over, and what he heard in his ears was Kotori's anxious shouting, which gradually became blurred.
However, soon Shiori could see and hear nothing.
After not knowing how long he had been unconscious, Shiori finally opened his eyes dazedly, and with a little visual effort he could confirm that he was lying on the bed in his room.
"What's wrong with me? My head hurts...Tohka?"
Climbing up from the bed, Shiori touched his aching head, but the first thing he saw was Tohka's pink face.
Tohka fell asleep in the chair next to Shiori's bed, just like a student who played games all night and dozed off in a boring class.
"Tohka, it's time to change shifts. Hey, Shiori, are you awake?" At this time, Kamikami pushed the door open and found Shiori who had woken up from his coma. This action also woke up Tohka who was sleeping.
"Aaaah! You have to take care of Shiori, you can't fall asleep!" Tohka, who was awakened, sat up immediately without wiping the saliva from the corner of her mouth, just like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"I'm sorry for making you worry." Looking at the time on the alarm clock on the bedside table, Shiori realized that he seemed to have fainted for a long time. From the conversation just now, Kamika and the elves probably took turns to take care of him when he was unconscious. Seeing that Tohka was so tired that she fell asleep just now, Shiori felt a little sorry.
"It's okay! I'm very energetic! I can take care of Shiori for a few more hours!" Tohka tried her best to pretend to be energetic, but the dry saliva around her mouth made her unconvincing.
"Thank you, Tohka. You must be very tired, go to bed."
"Yeah! But if Shiori feels unwell, you must call me!"
"No problem."
"Of course! Of course!"
"No problem, no problem."
After Tohka left, Kamika sat next to Shiori: "The doctor on the Fraxinus said that you fainted due to excessive mental stress. I have heard about the Devil and the date on Saturday from Kotori. If I had noticed it earlier, you might not be so tired. Sorry..."
"You don't have to apologize. It's my fault..." Shiori sat on the bed and hugged her legs. Whenever she thought of Zhenlian, her head and her heart would feel a strong pain. Even if she wanted to forget, she couldn't forget.
"Hey, Kamikami-chan. You know what Devil is now, right?"
"Yes. Tobiichi Origami, a special reversed spirit that will temporarily transform into a spirit when it senses spiritual energy."
"Yes. On the other hand, as long as we never show our spiritual power in front of her, she can live as an ordinary person like Tohka and the others, right?" Shiori hugged himself tighter, "Then do we really need to seal her? Are we depriving Hanyu-kun of happiness by doing this?"
Shiori could sense that Hanyu Maren attached great importance to Origami, and he was afraid that once Origami was sealed, she would be destined to drift away from an ordinary person like him.
"Shiori, you really feel miserable about this. But no one can guarantee that Tobiichi will remain stable, right? If one day Tobiichi completely turns into a reversed spirit, the one who will suffer the most will definitely be Hanyu." Kamika thought for a while and said, "And since Tobiichi is a spirit sealed by you, Shiori, does that really mean that Hanyu will lose Tobiichi and deprive him of his happiness? Not necessarily. As long as we make him believe that we can work hard to maintain his happiness, we just need to make a promise and do it."
After listening to Kamikoi's words, Shiori felt a lot warmer in his heart: "Thank you, Kamikoi."
"Actually, Shiori can rely on me a lot!" Kamikoenka said with a smug expression.
--split line--
"How should I explain this to Lian-jun?"
In the middle of the night, Origami was lying on her pillow, talking to herself in distress. She had made an appointment with Hanyu Mare to go out together on Saturday, but somehow she invited Shiori without her permission.
At this moment, the mobile phone next to the pillow emitted an electronic notification tone indicating that a text message had been received.
"It's a text message from Gokawa-san." Origami clicked on the screen and began to read the content of the text message.
[Sorry, Origami. My friend might come over to play on Saturday. You don’t mind, do you? ???]
[No problem. Girls' gatherings are more fun when there are more people. But I want to bring a male friend with me, you don't mind, right? He's not a bad boy! Please believe me! (oωo)]
[No problem. (?▽`)ノ?]
【Thank you! ε?(?> ? <)? з】
After obtaining Shiori's consent, Origami breathed a sigh of relief. All she had to do next was to obtain Hanyu Marie's consent and everything would be fine.
[But what will Lianjun's reaction be? ]
If Hanyu Shinrei is happy about this, does that mean he is a guy who accepts cute girls? If Hanyu Shinrei doesn't care, does that mean he doesn't care about the agreement with Origami? If Hanyu Shinrei is angry... it's better not to imagine such things...
The girl suddenly fell into a small contradiction.
A few minutes later
While lying on the bed in a daze, Hanyu Shinren suddenly heard the tone of a text message being received on her cell phone.
When he saw Origami's explanation about Shiori and Kamikaze going out together, he suddenly felt uneasy - he didn't want to have anything to do with anyone related to elves no matter what.
[I must refuse it! And I must also make Origami refuse to go out with Gokawa Shiori! ]
However, just as Hanyu Manre was about to type a text message, her fingers uncontrollably typed "114" (which sounds like "OK" in Japanese) and sent it.
[What am I doing! No, what are you doing! Hiden Manrei! ]
Just when Hanyu Shinrei wanted to withdraw the message, her hands uncontrollably pinched her neck, and soon waves of hypoxia attacked her brain. Hanyu Shinrei lay on the bed and fell asleep very "peacefully".
[Hiden Manrei, damn... why...?]
Chapter 13 Opening the Door of Memory
"My neck...where is this?"
Yuzuru Shinren touched her neck which was almost bruised from being strangled and wailed softly, but she noticed that she was in a strange space.
And in front of him were two doors.
However, it is not quite accurate to say that there are two doors. The first one is very familiar to him, it is the door of his room; and the second one looks like a refrigerator door.
A room and a refrigerator door just stood there without any basis, even looking a little absurd and funny.
Hanyu Shinren walked forward and opened the first door without any hesitation. It was very natural, and he didn't even consider whether there was something dangerous beyond his imagination behind this door.
However, what was behind the door did not scare him at all - behind the door was his room, with a neat and simple single bed, a desk that had not been tidied up yet, a family photo on the bedside table, and the glasses given by Origami.
Everything seemed very ordinary, as if they were supposed to be here.
"Behind that door... is it something belonging to Hiden Shinren?"
Yuzuru Shinrei looked at the second door, which was different from the ease with which he opened the first door naturally. Just staring at the second door made Yuzuru Shinrei feel flustered. His intuition and instinct told him that the door that looked like a refrigerator door could not possibly contain the iced drinks and cakes collected by Hiden Shinrei.
To be honest, Hanyu Shinren really wanted to throw herself on the bed in the first room and pretend that she saw nothing and fell asleep.
He originally didn't want to know about Hiden Shinren's memories, but now he was extremely eager to open the second door.
Why……
Why when I make a wish, I wish that Hiden Manren can also be happy?
With cold sweat on her forehead, Yuzuru Shinji put her hand on the door handle. It was obviously a very simple action, but Yuzuru Shinji just couldn't muster any strength.
[The answer is behind this door. There is no escape, no escape...]
After repeating "cannot escape" countless times in her heart, Yuzuru Shinren opened the door with force, even though it didn't require any force at all.
The moment the door opened...
【! ! ! 】
Countless scenes that Yuzuru Manren had never seen before suddenly flooded into his mind.
Is this the memory of Hiden Manren?
On a cold rainy night, in a nameless alley where no one cared, I was wearing only tattered clothes that could barely cover my body.
The cold rain hit my body, it was very cold and chilly.
But even so, he continued to feel severe burning pain and numbness in his right arm and leg.
It was so numb and painful that even the cold rain could not relieve the burning pain. My right arm and right leg seemed not to belong to me. After opening my eyes in a state of shock, I suddenly found that my right leg and right arm were deformed.
Am I a monster?
At this moment, this idea appeared in his mind.
"Haah...haah..."
Mana Hanyu gasped for breath and barely escaped from this hyper-real immersive experience.
I should have woken up in a warm and clean ward.
It is this real yet unfamiliar feeling that allows Hanyu Marin to understand that this is Hiden Marin's past.
Looking around, the second door was different from the warm bedroom behind the first door. Instead, it was a dark forest that only appeared in various RPG games.
"hiss……"
Yuzuru Manren suddenly took a breath of cold air, and it felt like she was being stared at by a huge beast.
As expected, the next second, there was a clacking sound in front of him, as if there were a lot of hard objects rubbing against dead branches on the ground. Along with this strange sound, a huge purple scorpion slowly crawled out from the depths of the darkness.
“This is a toy!”
Yuzuru Makino wailed. Faced with this huge arthropod, he had no choice but to run away, otherwise his body would be pierced through by the scorpion's sting.
While escaping, Hanyu Manren suddenly felt a sharp pain in her shoulder, and not only that, she also felt extremely uncomfortable in her chest and abdomen.
The memories of being kicked by Mie and tortured by Mie's venom to a point where she was living a life worse than death flooded into Hanyu Shinren's brain.
A huge firebird wrapped in flames swooped down from the sky at high speed, and its sharp and hot claws almost pierced Hanyu Shinren's collarbone.
The memories of being slashed by Xun's Slashing Sublimator and being burned by the Burning Falcon flooded into Hanyu Manren's brain.
Hearing the rumbling sound, a blood-red ostrich covered in lightning rushed out, as if trying to kick Hanyu Shinren's skull to pieces.
Memories of being pierced through the body by thunder's lightning and being beaten by iron fists flooded into Hanyu Shinren's brain.
Fighting, pain, suffering, is this all that Hiden Shinren has to endure?
How long had he run? He didn't know, nor did he pay attention. He only knew that he had been running for a long time and had no strength left.
His exhausted body was tripped by the vines, and he didn't even have the strength to get up. In front of him appeared a big white wolf with purple pupils, looking at Hanyu Shinren with a fierce look.
“Don’t come over here… Don’t come over here, ahhhh——!” Faced with the approaching white wolf, Hanyu Manren could only let out the same desperate howl as Tachibana-senpai.
But the next second, the wolf's fangs did not fall on his neck. Instead, a figure suddenly appeared from nowhere and pressed the white wolf to the ground.
"Oh, why haven't I seen you before? It's really strange."
The man didn't take care of Hanyu Shinren, but started to check the big white wolf. The man looked exactly like Hanyu Shinren, except that he didn't wear glasses, his hair was chestnut-colored, and he had blue-purple eyes.
"Hiden Marei?"
Hearing Hanyu Shinren calling his name, Hiden Shinren let the white wolf go and stood up with a contemptuous expression: "Wow, didn't your mother teach you not to visit others without their permission?"
A few minutes later
The place that Hiden Shinrei brought Hanyu Shinrei to was very dreamy, so dreamy that it was completely different from the dark forest outside. If we use the phone as an analogy, this place looks like a princess's castle from the outside, and the interior layout is hard not to remind people of the candy house in "Hansnertz and Gretel".
There are several spherical creatures on the stove, soft and cute, just like the dumplings from the dumpling family. Hiden Shinrei also specifically reminded Hanyu Shinrei not to make them unhappy, because with them, this dark forest will have such a small paradise without anyone intruding.
There are eight dumplings in total. The blue-green dumpling has a rabbit-shaped dumpling on its head, which gives people a cool feeling when you get close to it; the red dumpling has white horn-shaped decorations tied with white ribbons on both sides of its head. If you poke her, she will jump up and her body will become hot; the blue-silver dumpling always likes to stick together with the turquoise dumpling, but judging from the expression of the turquoise dumpling, she should not be very happy; the two lavender dumplings have only a slight color difference, and when I came in before, I saw them having a conflict, but now they are happily sticking together again; the cyan dumpling quietly took a candy cane from the candy wall and stuffed it into her mouth; the last sea-blue dumpling was staring at Hiden Shinrei who was preparing tea for Hanyu Shinrei, with a happy look on her face.
Gently poke one of them, and the beautiful memories of Hiden Manrei, Shiori, and the elf girls will flood into Hanyu Manrei's mind. The more heartwarming these scenes are, the more an inexplicable sense of guilt arises in Hanyu's heart.
"I know you can't eat sweet things, so I made you some sugar-free black tea."
Seeing Hiden Shinrei bringing the hot tea to Hanyu Shinrei, Hanyu Shinrei stood up from her seat and asked, "Why!"
"Why?" Zhen Lian looked clueless and stuffed sweets into her mouth. "Is it the decoration of this house? It's because those little ones are girls that they decorate it like this, not because they found the female in their hearts or something like that."
"That's not what I meant! You shouldn't treat me like this, right? I'm the bastard who deprived you of your happiness! You should be angry, even angrier!" Hanyu Shinren became more and more agitated. After seeing Hiden Shinren's past, he finally understood why he made that wish uncontrollably.
Hiden Manren's tragic experience made Hanyu Manren understand why he wanted to meet Shiori so much. Just like this space, Hiden Manren's happiness came from Shiori and the elves.
