Chapter 563

"Hey, that's strange. Don't worry, the main storyline is already finished. It's probably just that Kaguya-sama wants to experience what it's like to be a hero."

"That makes sense, that silly young lady is very concerned about saving face."

"Brother, isn't it impolite to think about other women while you're being affectionate with me?" Mona Yuki's head back, cupped his cheeks, and suppressed the struggle of an Epic IV player.

Her long, black hair was disheveled, her shoes had long since been kicked away, and her slender bare feet twisted and turned on her thighs. Through the draped hem of her clothes, one could see her flat chest.

Coupled with the little girl's sly expression, her protruding little tongue is quite a sight, oh, and there's also a very disdainful gaze staring at her.

What kind of PLAY is this?

Yuki, a seasoned driver, couldn't tell the difference. He only felt that the girl was soft and warm, and her small hands were constantly groping for something, until a hand grabbed the back of her neck, like lifting a kitten that had stolen some cream.

"Stop Acting Crazy Here! I'm still watching!!"

Frieren couldn't hold back any longer. Was she being used as part of the game too?

"Oh dear, if Frieren don't want to watch, you can go take a shower first. Aren't you most afraid of showering with me?" Mona thrashed about in mid-air like a fish out of water.

"That's because you're always harassing me." The round-faced girl gritted her teeth, glaring at Yuki who was watching the show. "The seniors could come back at any time, aren't you afraid of getting caught?"

"Let's go together then, anyway, Mona doesn't care~~"

"But Mai Sakurajima- senpai cares!" Frieren couldn't take it anymore and picked up the girl to leave. Suddenly, Yuuki Yuki her ankle, and an electric shock-like sensation ran up to her hair, making her body tremble slightly.

Here it comes, he's finally going to reveal his beastly nature and attack me!

Should I fight back? Should I slap him?

"Hey, you're not going to hit me, are you?" Yuki quickly covered his face, and seeing that Frieren's purple eyes had turned into spirals, he hurriedly said, "I wanted to tell you some good news, your teacher has been found."

Teacher? What kind of teacher?

Frieren was completely taken aback. He stared blankly down at the sight of Yuki making a gesture of pointing ears, and his pupils constricted sharply.

"Ouch, why did you throw me?"

As soon as she let go, Mona slammed heavily onto the floor, letting out a strange cry of pain. Turning her head, she saw Frieren kneeling on one knee, pressing down on Yuki's shoulder.

"Frieren, she... she's a player too?"

"Yes, players have a clustering effect; they can easily drag those around them down with them." Yuki saw the excited expression on the usually expressionless round face and said with a smile, "She's in the Aether Particles."

"That's very dangerous!" Frieren's voice rose several octaves. Of course, she knew how dangerous that camp was—no, even more dangerous than before.

"Don't worry, I know her. You're safe now, and there's no fear of being tracked by the Judge. But don't go see her until things calm down."

Frieren remained kneeling on one knee with her hands on her shoulders, her expression quite complicated.

Relaxed, tense, grateful, resentful—a variety of contradictory expressions appeared alternately until finally, the round face returned to its usual indifference, and she stood up and gracefully performed a magician's salute.

"Thank you."

"It's nothing. Think carefully about how to arrange things afterwards, and I will fulfill all your requests."

All requirements?

Frieren paused slightly, then tentatively asked, "Should I leave, or should I let her join the team?"

"I've already said it, it includes all requirements."

Frieren took a deep breath and looked at the serious-looking Yuki, his feelings complicated.

This simple sentence carries immense significance, considering it concerns 'Taiyi,' a being relentlessly pursued by the Reincarnation Game, and his promise has already undergone numerous trials.

Aren't you afraid of your secret being exposed? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?

With a slight movement of her lips, Frieren never questioned her, but she understood the true value of being considered 'one of their own'.

That's why she's even less likely to make excessive demands.

"I will think it over carefully." Frieren bowed again. After so many days, she had become an integral part of the team. She walked out with a heavy heart, perhaps only in the bathroom could she calm down.

Mona's eyes darted around, as if she was thinking about how to help her beloved older brother, but as soon as she got up, Yuki pressed her down.

"You mustn't make things worse; this is extremely important to Frieren's Destiny."

"But I can't live without Frieren's facial cleanser!"

What the hell is this face wash?

Yuki glanced at the voluptuous figure's back, then returned to the loli in front of him, and said seriously, "This is meaningless, and I don't want to distort other people's wishes. To this day, I still don't understand how the players inside the Outpost will return after escaping the Reincarnation Game."

This relates to the next key experiment: whether players are not divided into factions, or whether the Outpost be re-established along with the entire faction, including those players still inside the instance.

Theoretically, it should be the latter; otherwise, after he finishes his task, wouldn't the players inside the instance be left homeless?

This is what is meant by Mona's silence, because according to the latter, her homeland and Yuki were never on the same planet, and returning would mean a final farewell, a thought that weighed heavily on her mind.

"Brother, please do it."

"Huh???" Yuki was a little confused. He didn't want to bring up these things, especially in front of Mona and Frieren.

He looked up and saw Mona lift her lace-trimmed Lolita skirt, revealing her fair and flat stomach.

"If I can conceive your child, even if we never see each other again, I won't be lonely."

Yuki was shocked, Yuki was full of questions, Yuki saw ripples spreading across the living room space outside the door.

Mai Sakurajima looked nervous, glancing left and right as if she were afraid of encountering a ghost upon her return. She immediately spotted the open bedroom door and saw Mena Ryougi, who was just lifting her skirt.

Hayasaka Ai peeked out, Kaguya Shinomiya's mouth dropped open, Shiina Hiyori immediately covered her eyes.

Several months Borderlands, the two groups met again through the gap between the legs of the two Mona.

They were all completely dumbfounded.

Chapter Eleven: What I want to do, no one can stop me!

Pshaw, even I know to close the door and send my senior away!

Hayasaka Ai spat lightly, looking at the innocent-looking little girl on the sofa, who seemed completely unaffected by anything.

She's so shameless! When they caught her red-handed, she blushed slightly, put down her skirt, and patted her hands lightly.

"Oh, Mona was just thinking of taking a bath."

She tried to fool him with her innocent, naive attitude and ran away, but Mai Sakurajima, with a big smile on her face, grabbed her head and dragged her back. Now she's obediently kneeling and listening to a lecture.

Then that guy became even more shameless—no, I should say his quick thinking and resourcefulness were truly remarkable.

Hayasaka Ai at the closed door, which had now reopened, Yuki was standing in the doorway with a surprised expression.

"You're finally back. Why didn't you come with Mona and Frieren?"

Is our approach to this situation incorrect, or did we just experience a hallucination?

Hayasaka Ai began to doubt herself, quietly walked over, and clenched her fists as she looked at Yuki, who had an indifferent expression.

"You don't mean to pretend nothing happened, do you?"

"Nothing was wrong to begin with." Yuki's expression remained unchanged, stubbornly insisting, "Hayasaka, you know me, it shouldn't have happened so quickly."

"Pah, how would I know!"

Yuki immediately took a punch from the maid, straightened his chest, and with his level nine physique, he withstood it, his cheeks trembling.

"As expected of an epic-level player, that punch surpassed Deathwing's Destruction Ray and almost broke my defenses."

"I want to shoot you with Death Knell right now." Hayasaka Ai squinted, Kaguya immediately jumped in to cheer on her maid.

"And me, Hayasaka, how many arrows do you want to shoot him?"

"Kaguya-sama has learned a new skill, huh? Want to experience the overwhelming power of an Epic IV-rank character?"

Yuki turned his head to look, and the powerful sense of oppression made Kaguya Shinomiya cross her arms and stubbornly say, "Once I advance to Epic level, I won't be without the power to resist!"

"With your glass cannon?"

"Who said that I could use kite-flying tactics as long as the distance is far enough!"

That silly young lady has fallen for it again.

Hayasaka Ai is simply unbearable to look at. This bastard's ability to derail the conversation is top-notch. Every time I try to confront him, he always manages to change the subject with a joke, and then when I try to bring the topic back on track, there's always a sycophant who's there to help.

"Everyone, let's not change the subject; that matter is more important."

Sure enough, Shiina Hiyori spoke up. When Hayasaka looked at her with a mournful gaze, the girl looked directly at the floor, feeling quite aggrieved herself.

Mr. Yuki giving me meaningful glances, and I couldn't just ignore him; he'd been threatening me in the Reading Space the whole time.

When it comes to picking on the softest persimmons, you have to be especially careful with soft girls like Shiina Hiyori.

Yuki noticed that everyone's eyes were on him, including Frieren, who had just come out of the shower and was completely clueless about what was going on. He winked slightly.

Well done, you deserve credit.

"What's the matter? Has the Golden City found that strange item?"

No, it's that matter.

"Which matter?"

Yuki turned his head and saw that everyone looked blank. His heart skipped a beat, realizing that this was not just cooperation, but something of great importance.

Oh right, what was it again?

From Mai Sakurajima to Hayasaka, from Frieren to Mona, everyone was completely dumbfounded, as if they had developed amnesia. They clearly felt there was something important, but they just couldn't remember it.

After a while, a crisp 'snap' was heard, Shiina Hiyori slapped his forehead and took out a piece of gold leaf.

"Oh right, I'm writing this down before I forget. Everyone stay away and let Mr. Yuki. I'm afraid I might leave something unresolved."

Baffling.

Yuki was full of questions, but his expression was serious. This gold foil was the biggest reward from Hiyori's three dungeons. It was called the [Golden Book], a special item that was no less valuable than the Witch God's Soul Crystal.

[To record the indescribable and to interfere with reality]

The description alone is extraordinary, resembling a precious item from the Future Notebook, and it's mentioned in the very first sentence.

"We are forgetting, we will forget completely, and we will break free from cause and effect."

This was written by Shiina Hiyori. As a good student who had learned the essence of the art of survival, this one sentence put Yuki at ease. Even if there were any loose ends, they were completely cut off.

He read on carefully, his expression growing increasingly serious. The book described the strange behavior of a player named 'Aozaki Shun'. For example, even though they were traveling together, Kaguya had completely forgotten about the other person. After realizing something was wrong, Hiyori didn't dare to return immediately but instead quickly wrote it down.

Well done. If it weren't for the 'Golden Book', they would have already fallen for it. This Aozaki Shun is no simple character.

Yuki frowned. This was a very clever psychological tactic. He deliberately exposed something strange to make the upperclassmen and others suspicious, so that they would forget about it and wonder why it was left until the end.

When they return, perhaps some bad things will happen.

"He didn't anticipate that Hiyori possessed a special item, nor did Hiyori foresee that she would be so cautious as to actively erase her related memories."

Yuki closed her eyes and carefully sensed her surroundings. Nothing had followed her in. A normal person who sensed something was wrong would try to force themselves to remember it again and again and go back to a stronger person to analyze it. But Hiyori was the opposite; she wasn't curious at all.

A kind of illusion involving causality—did this Aozaki Shun ever exist? Was even the memory of fighting alongside him fake?

Yuki gasped. According to the records in the Golden Book, there were many epic-level players in the final battle, yet a Schrödinger's cat was among them, and no one noticed anything amiss.

"You're being watched. Don't worry, Hiyori did a good job. It's a causal illusion. As long as you remember him, he will exist."

The atmosphere suddenly became tense; everyone froze their thoughts, but it was no use.

If Hiyori hadn't prepared beforehand, when she brought up 'that matter,' everyone would have instinctively thought about it and, based on their level of contact, sketched out a person like a drawing.

Finally, Aozaki Shun will appear out of thin air in the living room.

That incident? What happened? What did we encounter?

This is human instinct; they will recall everything that happened in 'Aberration Calamity' and every player they encountered, and the missing part will bring obvious discomfort, so their minds will try hard to recall.

Like the moon reflected in water, you must forget it; otherwise, any player with normal intelligence would forcibly seal the memory, which is too deceptively obvious. Only by hiding it in your memory like a worm, maintaining a state of 'being there,' will it grow, sprout, and break free, even if you summarize the gains from the 'Aberration Calamity.'

"What an amazing skill! It transcends time and cause and effect. Whatever you think about, it exists; whatever exists, it will appear." Yuki felt his heart racing. He pressed down with one hand. "Don't panic. You can't remember, and I've never had any contact with him, so naturally I can't recall him from my memories."

Everyone kept their distance, not daring to look at the gold foil, afraid that even a single punctuation mark would bring back memories.

Tear.

Yuki tore off the gold leaf directly. The biggest difference between the Golden Book and the Future Diary is that the number of pages is limited. This tear might be equivalent to thousands of points.

But Hiyori couldn't afford to feel heartbroken; Yuki's actions must be of great importance.

"Can we talk if we don't mention him?"
