Rick then turned and left.

Klonie was left sitting alone on the rock, her heart filled with complex emotions.

Should we give it a try...?

Chloe muttered to herself.

Their gaze once again turned to the distant flames of war.

She thought of the other members in the chat group, those powerful beings from different worlds, and of Ling Qing, whom everyone in the chat group had just mentioned helping a world.

If... if she asks him for help, could she really change the fate of the human race?

But is the cost really just as simple as sacrificing oneself?

Yes.

She never cared about giving her all from beginning to end.

What she feared was that everything was an illusion.

Klonie was caught in an unprecedented internal struggle.

On the one hand, there is a desire to change the status quo.

One aspect is the fear of unknown risks.

Rick's answer gave her some kind of inspiration.

In dire straits, perhaps... taking risks is the only option.

Chapter 669 I'd Rather Abandon Myself, Then...Who Am I? (Seeking monthly votes, reviews, flowers, and favorites!)

At Ling Qing's home.

Exhausted, Feng Bin and Hua pushed open the door.

I'm back!

She dragged her tired body to the sofa, buried her face in the cushions, and let out a long sigh.

Why did you come back so late?

A familiar voice came from the direction of the kitchen.

That was her own voice.

To be precise, it's Sakurajima Mai who is currently using her original body.

He Hua reluctantly raised her head.

I saw myself walking towards me carrying a cup of hot milk.

This bizarre experience started several days ago.

But she still couldn't get used to seeing herself make that mature and composed expression.

Mai's eyes were sharp.

She was worried when Feng Bin and Hana returned after everyone else had rested, since they had used her body.

Sorry.

Feng Bin and Hua scratched the back of their heads awkwardly.

I accidentally went back to my own home out of habit, and then rushed back.

This is a habit.

She hasn't fully adapted to living in Mai's body yet.

Seeing that her eyes didn't seem to be faking it, Mai didn't pursue the matter further.

You're back too late, so just eat this.

Mai placed the milk on the coffee table and sat down opposite her.

How was your day?

He Hua did not answer immediately.

Instead, she slowly sat up and took small sips of milk.

The warm liquid slid down my throat, slightly relieving the tension that had lasted all day.

累…

She uttered only this one word in the end.

His voice was filled with unprecedented exhaustion.

Mai watched her quietly, without urging her.

This composed attitude made Kazuka both envious and somewhat annoyed.

Why is this person able to be so at ease no matter which body they are in?

Did you know…

Hehua put down her cup, her voice low.

I was called upon to help out by the teacher at school again today. Some female students surrounded me.

"Mai-senpai, this... Mai-senpai, that..." they kept asking.

I had no idea how to answer, but I couldn't refuse.

Her fingers tapped unconsciously against the side of the cup, making a soft sound.

I really just want to be alone.

All of this is because of Mai's...fame.

Mai nodded gently.

She's usually pretty much the same, but she can use her abilities to make herself unnoticed by others.

Didn't you always envy my life and fame?

These words pierced the flower like a needle.

Yes.

Before they swapped bodies, she had indeed envied Mai's popularity countless times.

She wasn't very famous; almost no one knew who Toyohama Kazuka was.

Even at school, she was just like an ordinary student.

That's different!

Hehua suddenly raised her voice.

I thought... I thought it would be great to be liked by everyone.

But in fact…

Her voice lowered again.

Everyone is only looking at Mai Sakurajima, not me.

The room fell silent for a moment.

Feng Bin and Hua lowered their heads dejectedly.

She knew very well that it wasn't her fame, but Mai's.

As a result, she was constantly in a state of wanting to escape.

Then...

Mai finally spoke, her voice incredibly calm.

Do you want to switch back now?

?

Hehua was stunned.

Change it back?

Returning to the life of Toyohama and Hana, who were strictly demanded of by their mother, trained until late at night every day, and were never good enough?

Her silence seemed to have already given the answer.

Mai raised an eyebrow slightly.

So you'd rather continue being the fake Mai Sakurajima?

no!

He Hua hurriedly denied it.

...

But I don't know how to explain it.

I…

She scratched her hair in frustration, making Mai's beautiful chestnut hair look messy.

I just... Mom...

The words were on the tip of my tongue, but I couldn't say them.

How can I tell others that my biological mother's love for her daughter is conditional?

Only when she performs well enough, and resembles the star Toyohama Kazuka enough, can she receive that pitiful little bit of recognition?

Mai's expression softened upon seeing her state of mind.

Hehua, you know we'll have to get it back sooner or later, right?

I know!

Hehua almost shouted it out.

Then, like a deflated balloon, he shrunk back into the sofa.

I just... need time.

There was another moment of silence.

Kaori stared at the milk glass in her hand.

The liquid in the cup had stopped steaming, just like her gradually cooling passion.

姐…

She suddenly spoke, using a form of address she hadn't used in a long time.

How did you end up with Ling Qing?

Mai was clearly taken aback by the sudden change in topic, and her eyes widened slightly.

This expression looked particularly childish on Kazuka's original face.

Why are you asking this suddenly?

I was just curious.

Hehua shrugged, trying to appear nonchalant.

You're so outstanding, you must have had many suitors, why did you choose him?

However... Ling Qing is even more special.
