"I... I don't dare..."
Nura Clan looked at Xu Yue, who had come before him once again, his expression miserable.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. This is my own request; just do as I say."
"Of course, if my plan fails, I'll definitely have Amaterasu kill your entire family."
Xu Yue spoke calmly as he used his authority in the Conan world to copy his own memories.
This made Nura Clan even more grief-stricken. Don't be like this, okay? What if there's a flaw in your plan?!
Don't drag me into this...
"If you don't cooperate, I'll definitely have Amaterasu kill your whole family. Decide for yourself."
One side meant certain death, while the other merely meant possible death. Nura Clan ultimately followed his heart and made his choice...
With Nura Clan's full cooperation, the rest was much easier. Xu Yue successfully held Nura Clan back, after which Kishimoto Megumi landed a long-range headshot.
Unfortunately, Nura Clan was exceptionally powerful. Before dying, he pierced through Xu Yue's Reinforcement Suit and took Xu Yue down with him...
"Lord Yue! Lord Yue! Wonderful, you really came back to life..."
As Xu Yue's consciousness returned once more, vast amounts of memories and the information from the scene before his eyes came flooding back.
So that was it. Had he died once?
Since he could be resurrected, half the plan should have succeeded. He just didn't know whether the rest would succeed as well.
When he opened his eyes and saw another figure identical to himself beside Kishimoto Megumi, a smile appeared on his face.
Just as expected...
Almost as soon as Xu Yue met the gaze of that copied version of himself, the other Xu Yue revealed the same smile. Then their memories, sensations, and wills began to resonate and merge
