Toyokawa Shoko doesn't want to become a witch

Page 591

At this moment, Xiangzi jumped into the encirclement of monsters, mobilizing the magic within the Soul Gem, and recreated—

Uh!

Suddenly, he felt a splitting pain in his head, and Xiangzi's legs gave way, causing him to kneel on the ground.

Only then did she notice the state of her Soul Gem, which was almost full and could shatter at any moment.

When...when did it accumulate to such a full level?!

She should still have one unused Grief Cube... no, not in the Gemstone Space? And that supercausality... it seems I can't sense it anymore.

what is the problem?

Have I been transported to another world?!

—"Awooo—!"

The wild beast pounced.

Never mind, let's use the least amount of magic to conjure two M1911 pistols.

Bang bang!

Two bullets struck the monsters precisely in the head, and the two monsters that were charging at the front went from running to rolling, finally stopping at Xiangzi's feet.

She picked up the Lament Cube dropped by the monster and added a tiny bit of magic power to it.

However, the magic power of the Rubik's Cube is linked to the strength of the monster. The two small Karami that can be easily killed cannot replenish much magic power; it's just a drop in the ocean.

Xiangzi gritted his teeth, raised his pistol, and aimed it at the horde of monsters that had become even more excited by the gunfire.

Bang bang bang!

After firing several shots and clearing out the closest monsters, Xiangzi replenished his magic power with the Lament Cubes they dropped, and switched his weapon to the more lethal Remington M11.

boom!

The No. 20 shotgun shell blasted the approaching small monster into mincemeat. Xiangzi used its Lament Cube to restore more magic power, and his agility gradually returned.

She glanced at the mother and daughter embracing behind her.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you." Xiangzi turned his head, picked up his gun again, and steadily cleared away the surrounding monsters with each shot.

This is a combination I used so long ago; I suddenly feel a little nostalgic.

In this way, they slowly and gradually cleared away the surrounding monsters, restoring their own magic power and ensuring the safety of the mother and daughter...

roar----!

A huge creature covered in black pus stretched out its greasy tentacles and swallowed the Sorrowful Rubik's Cube that Xiangzi hadn't had time to pick up before it was scattered on the ground.

Xiangzi's heart skipped a beat.

To deal with this guy, my current magical power is completely insufficient...

Just as Xiangzi was thinking about how to get the mother and daughter out of trouble while he himself could escape unscathed, the roar of a motorcycle engine sounded in the distance.

The rumbling sound rapidly approached them, and the last ray of light illuminating the night appeared from the slope.

"—Sever in two with a single stroke, the Ruyi Divine Sword!"

锔——!

The blade flashed across the middle of the octopus, precisely separating its head from its tentacles.

The pink-haired rider, carrying a large katana, made an Akira-style stop, thought he looked very cool, took off his goggles, tossed his hair, and looked in the direction of Xiangzi and the mother and daughter, revealing his shiny little tiger teeth.

Then, after seeing Xiangzi's face clearly, he suddenly widened his eyes.

"Holy crap, I've seen a ghost!"

The Tale of Transcendence: Stars and Us: Chapter 793 Reunion

"Holy crap, I've seen a ghost!" The pink-haired rider stared wide-eyed at Xiangzi.

"Huh?!" Xiangzi raised his eyebrows, feeling inexplicably annoyed.

When she said she saw a ghost, she wasn't referring to herself, was she?

"That 'Huh?' sounds just like it. Could it really be that the little master has been resurrected?!"

"When did I die?"

"Thirty years ago! Didn't you die in the chaos of the battle of Helheim thirty years ago—"

"--ha?!"

How long ago?!

=====================

Two motorcycles were traveling side by side on the dilapidated road.

Xiangzi drove the motorcycle he had magically recreated, carrying the little girl he had just rescued, while Aine's motorcycle carried the young mother.

Along the way from the suburbs to the city, passing by the former Shinjuku, Xiangzi did not see any of the neon lights he remembered. All that remained were dilapidated buildings, asphalt roads cracked by steel bars, vending machines covered in moss, and old car shells piled up all over the road.

The concrete shell of the collapsed building was stuck at an angle at the intersection, and the steel bars were bent at the crossroads like withered tree branches, indicating that it had been damaged by the recent bombing. Ai Yin took out a map, drew a red cross on the intersection, and then led them to continue on another route.

The apocalypse couldn't be more fitting for this scene; it's as if everything corresponds to the future that Homura had told her about.

It's already been thirty years...

In other words, Delete's time machine failed again, and this time it was an irreversible failure, sending her directly thirty years into the future. What's worse, she can no longer sense the supercausality carried by the Soul Stone.

Honestly, I don't know what to say.

Xiangzi gritted his teeth, his hands gripping the handlebars, veins bulging.

"So, Master didn't actually die back then, but was searching for a way to reset time and change the future?" Aine asked.

"More or less." Xiangzi looked around at the scene and sighed. "But it looks like a failure."

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it," Aine said with a helpless smile.

"Who told you I'm dead?"

“Su Shishi”.

"..."

"Hey, let's not talk about that now, we're almost there."

She quickened her pace and came in front of Xiangzi.

"After entering the tunnel, there's still a complicated road to walk. I'll go first, and you follow behind. Be careful not to lose me, or it will be a big problem."

Xiangzi nodded and followed behind Aiyin's car.

As they ventured deeper into the tunnel along the railway tracks, Xiangzi felt as if he had been led into a maze. Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that the underground railway in Luwei Plain was a maze in itself. In this intricate place, he absolutely had to stay close to Aine, or he would easily lose his way.

After winding their way along the railway tracks to a place where several motorcycles were parked, they continued to follow Aine into a tunnel that looked even more complicated and could only be traversed on foot.

Finally, after lingering for about ten minutes, they stopped in front of a rusty iron gate that looked inconspicuous.

Aiyin walked to the door.

"Bangdream." The doorbell rang with a rather impatient voice.

"It's MyGO!!!!" Aine grinned and gave the code to the other end of the walkie-talkie.

"Several exclamation marks," the other end asked again.

"Five!"

drop.

The door opened.

Inside is a clean corridor with a style completely different from the rusty iron gate, leading to an unknown distance.

“There were originally only four exclamation marks,” Ai Yin explained to Xiangzi as she walked away, “but Su Shishi insisted on five, so here are five.”

"Why are you telling me all this?" Xiangzi asked.

"It's nothing, I just wanted my little master to know that I can stand on my own and have my own team." Ai Yin smiled foolishly and patted her hard chest. "Over the years, I've grown a lot."

"Really?" Xiangzi said. "You haven't changed at all."

Seeing the pink-haired girl still smiling brightly and foolishly, Xiangzi wondered if he had really traveled back thirty years, or if these people were simply playing a prank on him.

“Little Master too.” Ai Yin turned around. “As for me, I never thought I would see Little Master again.”

"..." Xiangzi lowered his head in silence.

Ai-yin blinked and realized that she seemed to be in an awkward silence.

Just then, they arrived at an elevator. Ai Yin took out her ID card, swiped it on the card reader, and then led the three people into the elevator.

The four people stood in the narrow elevator lobby, looking at each other. Ai Yin looked at Xiang Zi, then at the mother and daughter following behind them, who were completely clueless about the situation.

"Speaking of which, why are you all outdoors? It was just bombed; it should be very dangerous outside," Aine asked. "If I hadn't been on patrol, you would probably be in danger."

“Our settlement… was bombed,” the young mother whispered, gripping her little girl’s hand tightly. “We had no choice but to escape.”

"I'm sorry." Ai Yin scratched her head. "Please accept my condolences."

The little girl huddled behind her mother, peeking out half her head and looking into Aine's eyes.

Aine gave her a smile that revealed her canine teeth, and the little girl smiled back. Aine then knelt down and patted her hair.

"What happened with the bombing?" Xiangzi asked.

“It’s a regular bombing,” Aine explained. “It’s done by the people on the Agent’s side.”

"The agent... is it the agent of the incubator?"

“Hmm.” Ai Yin nodded. “The specific situation is quite complicated. Considering that you, Little Master, have traveled through thirty years of time, let’s have someone more professional explain it to you later.”

More professional people.

Upon hearing the word "professional," Xiangzi already had a strong sense of unease.

The elevator descended to the bottom, and the style of the corridor outside was similar to that of the corridor above, but it seemed to have a more lived-in feel, with some graffiti and a map to guide you.

Aiyin said she would take the mother and daughter to settle them in, and asked Xiangzi to wait there for a while.

So, Xiangzi stood at the T-shaped intersection, lost in thought.

After waiting for about five minutes, Ai Yin did not appear. Instead, a figure with flaxen hair walked towards them from the other side of the corridor.

The man paused for a moment when he saw Xiangzi.

"Su Shi?"

"Xiao Xiang?"

The Tale of Transcendence: Stars and Us: Chapter 794 Now It's My Turn to Lead You

Su Shi stood on the other side of the corridor, rubbing her eyes, thinking she was dreaming. After all, how could she possibly see Xiangzi if she wasn't dreaming?

She already did it thirty years ago...

"Long time no see." Xiangzi raised his hand and greeted him.

I haven't seen Su Shi for a while now, we've only chatted a few words on the phone at most. But for Su Shi, the meaning of this "long time" is probably much deeper.

Su Shi doesn't look much different, but she has become more composed and mature. She wore a fluffy side braid, which made her look elegant and dignified. She used to look a lot like her mother, but now perhaps we can remove the "a lot like" part.

However, this idea may be debatable, because within seconds of the two making eye contact, Xiangzi suffered a heavy blow.

Plop it.

Xiangzi felt as if he had been hit by a car when Su Shi tackled him to the ground, and the two of them rolled around in a heap, ending up on the ground. He was on the bottom, and Su Shi was on top.

"It really is you..." Su Shi sobbed, kneeling on Xiangzi's chest. "It really is you... If you're not dead... where have you been for the past thirty years...?"

"I......."

"Don't speak! I don't want to hear your explanation right now..." Su Shi grabbed Xiangzi's collar. "That's it... that's enough..."

Is it necessary for things to develop this way?

Xiangzi lay on the ground, thinking in a completely absent-minded state.
