Chapter 73 Epilogue 03

A week later, Gojo Satoru temporarily received a mission to go to Hokkaido to investigate the specific situation of the outbreak of the curse in a certain place, which would take about three days.

I was planning to go with him, I heard it still snows there in March.

Moreover, this year's Hokkaido Ice and Snow Festival has been extended by ten days due to climate reasons. If it passes now, you can still see the tail of the ice sculpture.

But a game I am looking forward to will be officially released today, and I decided to stay after struggling for a while.The Ice and Snow Festival can be watched next year, and it is interesting to play new games for the first time.

"Huh? Don't you want to go?" Gojo Satoru raised his hand to poke me suspiciously, "Didn't you say that you used to like to travel to different places?"

Before the turning point in my life, I often traveled to different mainland cities, sometimes with Ann, sometimes by myself.

The more I see the outside world, the more I understand the uniqueness of Meteor Street.There will never be another shelter like it that accepts everything.

Holding his child-like messy fingers: "It used to be because I was very curious about the outside world and wanted to see what was different."

"Ah, so, aren't you curious now?"

"Now I'm more curious about new games..."

He choked on me, searched for pictures of the Hokkaido Ice and Snow Festival on the mobile phone webpage, and flipped the screen to me: "Really not going?"

The icy and snowy scene in Hokkaido in the picture is indeed very beautiful, the crystal clear ice crystals reveal a faint azure sky, and there are fairytale castles carved from ice and snow in other exhibition areas.

I am a little moved.

Then said to him: "Then remember to take more photos for me."

Gojo Satoru: "...?"

He crossed his arms and leaned back against the wall, looking at me with his head tilted.After a while, he smiled slowly: "I refuse."

Blinking, I asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"Just let 'New Game' shoot for you." He said unhurriedly, "There's no need for me to come."

...?

I looked at him suspiciously for a few seconds, thought for a while, leaned over to hug him, raised my face and asked, "Gojo Wu, are you acting like a baby?"

He snorted inexplicably, pinched my face, "Me? It's you, right, I just leaned over."

"Then it's okay to be me." I don't care about these things, I only care about one thing, "Are you really not going to help me take pictures?"

"I have no experience in professional photography."

"Yesterday you said—" I imitated his tone, "'Because you are the strongest, you can easily do anything.'"

The 1000-piece soda can jigsaw puzzle I bought the day before yesterday arrived. I started working on it from morning to night, and the progress was very slow until Gojo Satoru came back and took me out for dinner.

The next day, he didn't have a task, so he came to work with me and finished it in a few hours, proudly saying that he was omnipotent.

"Hey~ I learned a lot like that."

Gojo Gojo laughed and then thought about it, there is indeed nothing he can't learn, at least so far, "Then try."

Then he glanced at the time, "Let's go."

He waved his back to me and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.I closed the door and sat back in front of the computer, waiting for the game to be officially released.

Three hours later, I regretted it.

The game's trailers are all its highlights, and the official game content is almost nothing, which is boring as hell.

The plot is old-fashioned, the story development is illogical, and the most amazing scene of the whole game is actually the opening CG animation.

It's like buying a piece of cake with great interest, but when you cut it open, it's all moldy inside, only the outside looks good.

Almost everyone in the game forum was scolding and said they wanted a refund.

Calculating the time, Gojo Satoru had arrived in Hokkaido by this time, so I sent him a [depressed] emoji.

Suddenly, a second heartbeat sounded in my chest, beating in tandem with my heartbeat, and the sense of existence was extremely clear.

I immediately spread out the circle.

The power hidden in my body is about to wake up.

Withdrew the thought power that wrapped my heart, and only waited for the moment that power touched my heart, grabbed it out and shredded it.

But the strange thing is that after waiting for a long time, there is no pain.Just when I was wondering if something went wrong, a light yellow halo appeared in my chest.

Immediately, I tried to grab the halo of light, and there was a black power surging between my five fingers, but it turned out that I passed directly through the halo of light!

I tried several times but couldn't catch it, so I stopped and looked in its direction vigilantly.

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in my ear.

"Anna! Long time no see!"

...? !

My eyes widened in surprise.

The halo quickly turned into a solid body, and slowly kneaded together, returning to the soft and soft appearance before.It's just that it's not black now, it's bright yellow.

"I'm a potato!" It jumped happily on the spot.

Joy flashed by, and I suddenly remembered that this guy's way of speaking was completely different from that of Tudou. He didn't speak in my head, but directly in reality.

Thinking of this, I shot violently, but the attack passed through it again, and instead it screamed in fright: "What are you doing!"

"——what are you?" I turned cold.

The mud-like thing flew into the air: "Don't you remember me? I am a potato, and this is the name you took."

Then it turned around like ants in a hot pot, "Oh no, that guy won't swallow your memory, will he? Let me see - no!"

...really potatoes?

I still can't believe it: "I don't have amnesia. Why doesn't your voice go directly to my brain?"

The lump of mud floated in the air, slowly turning into a question mark, as if it was puzzled by my question: "Because I'm out now."

"You merged the soul, [human evil] was also merged, and I was suppressed and fell into a deep sleep. Now it disappeared for some reason, and I will wake up."

The voice of the mud ball sounded aggrieved, "If [human evil] doesn't disappear, I will be slowly swallowed by it."

This guy recounted everything that happened at the beginning, and I already believed it a little bit, but I wondered if it was the black mud pretending.

"It's pretty dead," I said on purpose.

The mud ball was stunned for a moment, then suddenly bounced up and bounced around the room like a bouncy ball: "Wow!—that's great!"

I:"…………"

So excited, is it really a potato?

"Potato."

I made a sound suddenly and it stopped immediately.

"What's wrong?" it asked me.

"Is this your real body?"

The bouncing mud ball fell back to the table: "It can be said that, in fact, I am the [Holy Grail concept], and that black guy is the [Human Evil Concept]."

"I'm not really [the Holy Grail], but can use the power of the source."

I don't quite understand: "What do you mean?"

"Let's just say there's a real [Holy Grail] in the higher latitudes, and it's a very ancient object."

"Due to the processing of various legends and works of art, it is endowed with the characteristics of being able to fulfill wishes, so the corresponding concept is projected into this latitude and becomes [the Holy Grail concept]."

“[The concept of human evil] is a concept formed because of the legend that the [Holy Grail] will become [the polluted Holy Grail] after being touched by a malicious human being. That’s why it has always been attached to me, Trying to steal the original power."

Potato talked a lot, and finally concluded: "It's good that it's dead now, and I don't have to worry about it!"

"I swallowed it." I told Potato, "Aren't you afraid that I will swallow you like I swallowed it?"

"It turned out that I swallowed it, so that's even better, you will become stronger!" Tudou first congratulated me cheerfully, and then said, "But you can't swallow me."

"I am just a [concept], you can swallow that guy because of level suppression. If I remember correctly, your body feeds on desire."

I was stunned: "Do you know that I am not human?"

"I knew it the first time I saw you, but that guy doesn't know, it's useless, it can only restrain me."

The potatoes flew over unsteadily and landed on my head as lightly as before.

"Humans don't have such pure souls, they are very complicated."

I reminded it: "I'm human now too."

Originally I was talking about having a human body, but I didn't realize it was referring to something else, something deeper.

"Yes, your soul has also begun to have complex colors." It sighed faintly, "What's so good about being a human being."

"But when this body reaches the limit of human lifespan, I will come out of the shell again and return to the most primitive form." I added.

So Tudou became happy again, secretly anticipating: "Will your soul be calm again by then?"

"No." I denied.

"Oh……"

After a moment of silence, I asked in a low voice, "Did you see Ann's real name in your memory? That guy took this fragment from my memory."

"No." Potato said, "It should have been destroyed by it."

I was silent for a long time, and responded very softly: "...um."

Suddenly, it said: "But I saw your father, he lives in a high dimension."

——? ! !

My breath was suddenly suffocated, and then I became short-lived. I couldn't believe my ears: "Is what you said true?!"

"Well, because my body is in a high dimension, I can see it. If that guy doesn't have a body, he can't see the high-dimensional world."

Tudou said calmly, "But even if it can see it, it won't be able to help you. It will probably let the space hurricane tear you to pieces."

Staring at the bright yellow lump of mud in front of me, I suddenly didn't know what to say, and even felt at a loss for words.

I had already given up my expectations.

Also came to accept his death.

However, if I can still see him, I really still...

"Tudou, I... want to see him."

...want to see him again.

Then, and then—

Tudou suddenly interrupted my thoughts: "Anna, you belong to a low-dimensional person and cannot live in a high-dimensional one."

Its words are clear and cruel, "You will be slowly crushed by high dimensions, and finally become a real [paper]."

... squished?

A scene of silver-white light covered by darkness flashed through my mind.

I touched the candy box in my clothes and said in a low voice, "No, I can't let him be crushed..."

"Him?" Tudou asked with question marks all over his head, "I'm talking about you."

Without answering its doubts, I asked: "...I don't live there. Is it okay if we just meet? I... want to see An again."

Potato shook my head in distress: "Okay, up to two days, I will forcefully summon you back then."

"Can I bring one more person?"

"no!"

...No, that's fine.Anyway, the mission in Hokkaido will take three days, and it will not be found if it disappears for two days.

I fished the potato off my head and held it in my hand, so I could touch it without being aggressive: "Go now, okay?"

"sure."

As soon as the words fell, my eyes suddenly went black, and the feeling of being torn by a huge force suddenly came from all over my body. It seemed that there was another invisible force wrapping me, preventing me from being torn apart by that huge force.

Suddenly, the heavy darkness shattered, and the dazzling light suddenly appeared, making people unable to open their eyes.

After a few seconds, the light paused, and what appeared in the field of vision were streets with people coming and going and rows of high-rise buildings.

The people around spoke in an incomprehensible language, and the name of the store and the promotional pictures were all incomprehensible.

No one expressed shock at my sudden appearance, as if I was standing here in the first place.

Suddenly, a woman stopped beside me, squatted and said to me.

"Kid, are you waiting for someone?"

……Can't understand.

But...why half squat?

I raised my hands, and found that the sleeves, which were originally just the right length, suddenly grew a lot, hanging on my body like a child stealing an adult's clothes.

—I'm getting smaller.

"Kids?" the woman asked again.

Shaking my head at her, I covered my head with the hood and ran forward.

I don't know where I should go, but there seems to be an invisible guide in my subconscious, leading me to run in a certain direction.

I didn't stop until I ran to a bookstore.

My heart was beating suddenly, and there was an unspeakable premonition lingering in my heart, which stimulated my blood to run rampant in my body.

He wanted to lift his feet and walk in, but his feet seemed to have taken root, and he was firmly attached to the ground. He couldn't move half a step, and could only stare at the bookstore in front of him motionlessly.

Suddenly, a person walked out of the bookstore. He yawned, and slowly closed and locked the store door. The sunlight poured on his body, and his whole body was covered with a layer of hazy brilliance from top to bottom.

He locked the door, turned around and saw me, smiled gently, and spoke to me in a language I couldn't understand.

"Kid, do you want to buy a book?"

Under the spacious hood, tears welled up in my eyes, and even if my vision was blurred, I didn't dare to move away, for fear that he would disappear again in a blink of an eye.

Biting my lip to swallow the choked emotions, I took a deep breath, with a faint tremor in my voice.

"install……"

Surrounded by extreme silence, he froze for a moment, his eyes gradually opened wide.

"Dad...Dad..."

The sound of the wind was rushing, he strode over suddenly, squatted down, raised and lowered his right hand several times in a row, and then slowly took off my hood.

"Really..."

The moment he saw my face, he let out a long sigh, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and wiped away my tears very lightly. He moved his palm up and slowly placed it on the top of my hair.

The warm light of spring just melted into his eyes, shining brightly, more reassuring than anything else in the world.

It is full of tenderness that makes me want to cry so familiarly.

"Why do you still love to cry so much?"

He laughed helplessly.

The author has something to say: Gojo Satoru who received the [depressed] expression later——

Gojo Satoru: I see, there are a lot of bad reviews.

Gojo Wu: Haha, do you want to come over?

(After one hour)

Gojo Satoru: ... Where are people? (cat question mark)

Why did Anna say that he can't be crushed, because if she can go, she intends to take the cat with her (of course, the cat will not agree, but this is the embodiment of her thoughts)
