About the abilities of Kuro Sakuragawa and Liuhua Sakuragawa——

They ate the flesh of the prophecy beast "piece".

"Pieces" can see countless branches in the future, and choose one of them to end, at the cost of life.And this ability can only be used when dying.

At the same time, they ate the "mermaid meat".

"Mermaid meat" can revive people with full blood, which is equivalent to erasing the death condition of "piece".

Therefore, Kuro Sakuragawa and Rokka Sakuragawa can commit suicide and resurrection again and again, and choose the future they want to reach.

After all, it was caused by his cousin, Kuro Sakuragawa felt sorry for this, so he has been assisting Kotoko Iwanaga in action.

Before departure, Kotoko Iwanaga told Kuro Sakuragawa of her decision.

"It was my miscalculation...but it's not that there is no solution."

Kuro Sakuragawa disapproved.

"Are you going there?"

Iwanaga Kotoko nodded.

"I asked the gods to seal up the memory of the past two years. Next, I asked Senior Kuro to back it up and save it."

She smiled and said, "If you see the future where I successfully stopped Tuo Si, you can come and pick me up and restore my memory."

Sakuragawa Kuro was still worried.

"But what if you don't have the memory of the past two years? What if you met bad guys over there? You don't even remember who the enemy you're dealing with is."

"It's enough for me to remember who I am."

Yan Yong Qinzi's smile did not change.

"Anyone who wants to disrupt order is my enemy."

"I will continue to maintain order after I go there, and I will meet him one day."

……

that's all.

This is what happened before Kotoko Iwanaga left for this world.

That's why there are no monsters here, they can only be summoned by the game.

——This is [Ability World], not the [Ghost World] where she was originally.

No wonder she had never heard of supernatural beings before.

I thought it was due to the small number of people in this special group and the low profile, but it turned out that it was not the same world at all.

"My lord princess—"

Two black and white koma dogs suddenly appeared beside Kuro Sakuragawa, rubbing against Kotoko Iwanaga, "We miss you so much."

It was the little monster who once followed her.

"They didn't come with me."

Sakuragawa Kuro said helplessly.

"Then I will continue."

As for why,? She is a visitor from another world, but after Kotoko Iwanaga came to this world, she has a family and a group. Everyone knows her, and they get along as if she was a member of this place.

——"There was a 'Iwanaga Kotoko' in this world."

"but……"

Kuro Sakuragawa hesitated for two seconds, then continued.

"She's dead long ago."

In the first car accident.

The life experience of [Iwanaga Kotoko] in this world is very similar to that of the God of Wisdom, with only subtle differences.

They are all quick-witted, eloquent, and blind-eyed.

The biggest difference is that [Iwanaga Kotoko] is not the god of wisdom.

She's just an ordinary girl.

But her status as "the daughter of Yanyong Group" made her destined to be different from ordinary people.

While studying, she will also do charity work with the group.

At the age of 11, [Iwanaga Kotoko] was kidnapped by a rival with a grudge, and her eyes and legs were cruelly gouged out.

She was rescued thanks to orphans wandering nearby who spotted her and informed the police.

Since then, [Iwanaga Kotoko] has focused more on helping orphans, covering the entire Kanto region including Tokyo and Yokohama.

Until the age of 17, by chance, [Iwanaga Kotoko] discovered that N's research institute was doing human experiments.

She went to investigate in person, preparing to expose the incident.

But it was noticed by N.

In order to kill, N caused a car accident.

Unlike Iwanaga Kotoko, who is the god of wisdom, [Iwanaga Kotoko] has no help from monsters.

She couldn't escape.

【Iwanaga Kotoko】It is true that she was seriously injured and died in that car accident.

At this moment, Kotoko Iwanaga, the god of wisdom, came to this world.

She took over the existence of 【Iwanaga Kotoko】.

So, her status went from dead to out of danger, hospitalized and then discharged.

The memory that came to mind before going to the research institute was the memory of [Kotoko Iwanaga], and it was handed over to her.

Mr. Nakaya, Shirase and the others knew each other, and the one who helped 【Sheep】 when they were young is also 【Iwanaga Kotoko】in this world.

No wonder she didn't know Mr. Chuya before.

No wonder Shirose said that she had no memory at all, and thought she just didn't remember.

"It's a pity."

Yan Yongqinzi sighed.

It is not a pity to die!

She successfully dealt with the matter of the research institute, which could be regarded as fulfilling her wish in a different world.

"Because of your intervention, replacing her existence, the existence of 'Iwanaga Kotoko' in this world has continued."

Sakuragawa Kuro said.

"But it's unreasonable...you see."

Of course I understand—

The so-called "existence" is a very abstract concept, which can be regarded as a collection of interactions with the surrounding people and society.

In the morning, I bite my bread and rush out the door yelling "I'm going to be late" with my family, say hello to the neighbors and aunts who are watering the flowers in the yard, interact with classmates and teachers at school, participate in club activities after school, and go home with friends.

These various invisible threads that connect people together constitute "existence".

【Iwanaga Kotoko】died in a car accident.

Her existence would become death.

There will be no new connections between her and those around her.

People's positioning of her will also change from living to dead, gradually accepting the fact that she is no longer there, and their feelings will become sadness and regret.

In the end, her whole life turned into a sentence on the Internet, a yellowed old photo.

Her surroundings and society will become the state after [Iwanaga Kotoko] passed away.

But now, those things haven't happened yet.

This is contrary to the original world trajectory.

"Because of your appearance, the world has not been adjusted to the state where [Iwanaga Kotoko] is gone, but this is just a false existence."

Sakuragawa Kuro said: "If you drag it on, you will have more false connections with your surroundings, and the consequences will be unimaginable."

That was the order and chaos that Kotoko Iwanaga didn't want to see the most.

But if she just disappeared out of thin air, it would also cause chaos.

So, she must now—

"die".

The trajectory of the world must be corrected.

"Before the time is not too long and there are no serious consequences, we are going to create a death, so that the world's understanding of [Kotoko Iwanaga] will return to a dead state."

Sakuragawa Kuro said.

"Then, let's go back to the original world together."

"..."

A silence.

The gentle voice of the man was like snowflakes that would disperse when they touched the ground.

a long time.

Sakuragawa Kuro spoke softly as if afraid of disturbing something.

"...Iwanaga?"

The genie rubbed restlessly beside her.

Iwanaga Kotoko looked down at the ground and looked up, and smiled at Kamisakuragawa Kuro's worried gaze.

"Of course I understand."

"Senior Kuro, don't you think that I have to stay here no matter what?"

She spread her hands out, her voice was as light and clear as a stream.

"How could I do that."

Iwanaga Kotoko lowered her face slightly.

"If the gods who maintain order are all influenced by emotions, then the justice and sanctity of order will cease to exist."

Sakuragawa Kuro nodded slightly, pretending not to see her trembling lips.

Kotoko Iwanaga stood up with a cane.

"Give me a moment, sir."

"Before I go, I have to do some aftermath work."

Sakuragawa Kuro stared at her back, "It's better not to continue to interact with the people here," he still couldn't say.

Even if he didn't go deep into it, he could still see that in the state of amnesia without knowing anything, Yan Yong and the people of this world had already gotten along with each other deeply.

It was not easy to make this decision.

The last point of willfulness, let him tolerate it.

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

He opened his mouth.

……

The first thing Yan Yong Qinzi looked for was the two brothers Verlaine and Paul who were in the orphanage.

The two searched around, but they returned without finding Osamu Dazai.

"Mr. Verlaine, you are used to life in the orphanage by now."

"Fortunately."

Iwanaga Kotoko smiled slightly.

"Then can I trouble Mr. Verlaine to continue to be responsible for the guardianship of the orphanage?"

Verlaine exchanged a glance with her, and looked away.

"...I have no room for rejection at all."

The tone is not good, but it is mainly because of arrogance.

"There may be more powerful enemies in the future. The unarmed children gathered in the orphanage can easily become hostages or targets. Mr. Verlaine should pay more attention to this."

Yan Yong Qinzi said seriously.

"I will always keep Mr. Rimbaud's soul with me for restoration."

Verlaine: "Understood, isn't this what we agreed to do from the beginning?"

I thought it was a big deal to call him.

The man in the shirt vest yawned and walked inside.

"I'm going to sleep."

Seeing Verlaine disappearing through the door, Paul turned his head and smiled apologetically at her.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Yanyong, because my brother spent too much energy sending Mr. Yigu back, and he hasn't recovered yet... He didn't mean to have this attitude."

You know, it means you are still in confinement.

"Mr. Paul also wants to assist your brother in his work."

Yan Yong Qinzi thought for a while, "I remember there are still a few supernatural beings in the orphanage."

Like Paul, it was a supernatural life form rescued at that time.

"When the time is right, Mr. Paul and his brother can teach them to use supernatural powers. Children without supernatural powers can also teach some self-defense physical skills."

she said.

"With such a big orphanage, no matter how strong Mr. Verlaine is, it is inevitable that there will be times when it will be stretched."

"You can't always count on others. Since it is the place where you live, everyone should work together to protect it."

Paul nodded solemnly.

"I understand, Miss Iwanaga."

"Ah, that's right."

Iwanaga Kotoko signaled Sakuragawa Kuro to help bring the bag over, and took out an envelope from inside.

"The library has already been built."

"Here is the bibliography recommended by the cooperative bookstore. The person in charge will go to purchase it later. Mr. Paul will go there with him, and it will be easier for your ability to move books."

"I see."

Paul put away the envelope obediently, "I'll go right away."

"Okay," Yan Yong Qinzi got up, "I'm about to leave too."

"Thank you, Miss Iwanaga."

Paul's voice suddenly came from behind.

"?"

Kotoko Iwanaga turned around, and Paul looked very serious.

She wondered, "Why do you say such things suddenly?"

"No... I don't know why."

Paul scratched his head, "I just feel that what I want to say should be said right away."

A blush appeared on his delicate face, and he said shyly.

"Miss Yan Yong rescued me from the research institute, gave me a place to stay, and found my brother for me... I have always been very grateful to you, and I don't know how to repay you."

"In my heart, you are like a supreme existence like a god."

Wow, she was a little embarrassed to say that.

"That's right," Yan Yong Qinzi said with a smile, "Be careful when going out."

"Ok!"

……

Then Iwanaga Kotoko went to see Nakahara Chuya and Nakajima Atsushi.

The meeting place is in the middle of the linear distance from the orphanage to the outskirts of the city, at the edge of the forest.

The roar came from far to near, the locomotive stopped, and Nakahara Nakaya's slender legs stepped down from above.

"I'm sorry, Iwanaga, but I still haven't found Dazai."

"I'm going on a business trip soon. But I'll let people keep looking."

Zhong Yuanzhong also said, and motioned to the back: "The guy you want is brought here for you."

Atsushi Nakajima followed behind him, because he was suddenly brought out for some reason, and the whole little tiger was a little confused and uneasy.

The white hair was blown to pieces by the wind.

Although he is the direct subordinate of Dazai Osamu, Nakajima Atsushi doesn't know where his boss has gone.

"The back seat of Mr. Nakaya's motorcycle," Kotoko Iwanaga looked, "I really want to try it."

A little excited.

Zhong Yuan, who was smoking, also choked.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

He imagined the scene for a while, and whispered: "Dazai will kill me."

Turning to Iwanaga Kotoko, his words became: "Would you like to try it, now?"

Iwanaga Kotoko declined.

"Next time."

"Then let's talk first."

Zhong Yuanzhong also threw away the cigarette butt, turned around and stepped on the motorcycle to leave.

"Mr. Chuya."

Iwanaga Kotoko stopped him, hesitated for a few seconds, and said, "I know that Mr. Dazai is sometimes sloppy, but many of his words are not true thoughts, just to cover up his heart."

"If Mr. Chuya really can't help but want to hit him in the future...can you please be gentle?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also coughed violently.

Is this because even my girlfriend can't stand it anymore?

"I'll pay attention later."

He was slightly embarrassed.

"How is Mr. Nakaya getting along with his parents?"

"It's okay. It's just that sometimes it's a bit annoying."

Don't let him smoke or drink.

Zhongyuan Zhong also put his black gloved hand on the handlebar of the motorcycle, turned his head and asked patiently: "Is there anything else?"

"No more, Mr. Nakaya, let's go to work."

After Chuya Nakahara left, Atsushi Nakajima spoke anxiously.

"Miss Yan Yong..."

Atsushi Nakajima doesn't have much memory of what happened the night he picked up his subordinates. He lost control of his abilities and turned into a tiger and rushed out of the orphanage. I heard that Mr. Dazai and Ms. Iwanaga found him together.

After waking up, he found himself in Mr. Dazai's office, and Mr. Dazai invited him to join the mafia/hand/party.

The identity of Osamu Dazai is a mystery to the people in the orphanage, and it is only then that Atsushi Nakajima knows that he belongs to the black/hand/party.

Mr. Dazai said that as long as he joins, he can give him what he wants.

Nakajima Atsushi agreed and became a direct subordinate.

Atsushi Nakajima feels guilty about Kotoko Iwanaga.

Ms. Yan Yong improved the environment of the orphanage, asked Mr. Verlaine to teach him to control abilities, and even talked to the director specially.

He still escaped from the orphanage, isn't this just to live up to her kindness.

But he really couldn't face that terrifying Demon King! !

Iwanaga Kotoko seemed to know what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, I won't blame you for escaping from the orphanage. This is your own choice."

"To be honest, the orphanage has one less burden without a person. And you can come out to work and earn money to be on your own. You should be happy."

Atsushi Nakajima: Ah...is that the reason...

"Are you still used to being around Mr. Dazai?"

"Uh-huh."

"That's good," Yan Yongqinzi said, "I want to ask you one thing."

"You say."

Iwanaga Kotoko held a cane with one hand, and stretched out the other hand.

Seeing what she meant, the little tiger took the initiative to lower his head to pet her.

Yan Yong Qinzi said softly while smoothing her hair.

"It will continue to be like this in the future, and continue to protect Dazai-san...is that okay?"

"...?"

The sensitive teenager read out a trace of strange emotion.

But he couldn't raise his head, and he didn't dare to speculate on the mood of the girl in front of him.

"When, of course!"

He could only respond immediately, "This is what I should do!"
