Yakumo Yukari was internally cursing, but on the surface, she continued to play the role of a pitiful, helpless, and weak human girl named Xiao Hong, asking with a look of disbelief and distress, "Why?"

"Brother Yasuo, you clearly possess the power to protect everyone—"

"Why? You could have changed these tragedies..."

Mo Yi: "..."

Although he knew the other party was acting, their words still made Mo Yi feel inexplicably sad and upset, but that was all.

This probably just shows that Mo Yi is a compassionate and conscientious person, but excessive pity is also a kind of evil, and it might even turn into Goetia Gai Zong on the set of the Moon World.

Having lived two lives, Mo Yi didn't want to ramble on about grand principles anymore. To the other party's questioning, Mo Yi only wanted to say one thing, "As much as you have the ability, you should bear the weight of justice."

With Mo Yi's current abilities, can he solve the problem of Gensokyo?

Moreover, after liberating humans, will they be able to adapt to modern society?

Did anyone ask him for help?

Even Siegfried from the Moon World needs others to ask him to help, and Siegfried's fate isn't much better. Even after becoming a Heroic Spirit, he has to give his heart to Siegfried, the only designated male protagonist of "Mysterious Higashide," for a strange reason, and then leave the stage without doing anything else.

It's not wrong to want to be Partner of Justice, but one needs to understand one's own strength, how much justice one can bear, and whether one's so-called 'righteous actions' will harm innocent people.

Otherwise, it might backfire in the end, and instead of achieving something good, it could harm others.

Of course, this was Mo Yi's opinion. He had no mood or reason to explain things so clearly to 'Xiao Hong,' who was just an imposter. It would be a waste of Mo Yi's emotions and words.

"Xiao Hong— "

Mo Yi interrupted Yakumo Reimu's passionate performance, his tone calm, as if stating a very ordinary truth. "Humanity has its limits; the only ones who can be saved are those who love themselves or those who love themselves—"

"Human beings never need a savior; they can only save themselves by relying on themselves."

"..."

"Therefore, the task of saving everyone in the Human Village can only be accomplished by yourself; it's not something an outsider like me can do!"

Yakumo Yukari: "..."

The other party seemed to say a lot of reasonable things, but upon closer examination, it turned out they hadn't said anything at all. Simply put, I can't help you with this!

Well, overall, I'm satisfied with the outcome. The other party isn't the kind of Justice Partner who, upon hearing about the plight of humans in Gensokyo, ignores everything else and immediately declares, "Gentlemen, I love war," before starting to cause trouble.

Rather, they are the most common type of ordinary human being, with their own standards of conduct and ideas.

Yukari Yakumo finally got the answer she wanted.

Of course, this is only temporary. We still need to gather more accurate information. After all, it would be too dangerous to let someone with such strength roam freely in Gensokyo.

As far as she knew, the fact that Yuuka Kazami was causing him trouble was not easy to handle.

If the two of them happen to meet at Eientei and immediately transform into Groudon and Kyogre, dancing and having a blast in Gensokyo, and accidentally break the Great Barrier of Gensokyo, who can she complain to?!

Moreover, the grudge Mo Yi inflicted on her today, and the 'pain' she is currently enduring, cannot be easily dismissed.

After spouting his long-winded explanations, Mo Yi took a bottle of mineral water and a banana from Xiao Huo and handed them to Yakumo Reimu, whose face was flushed and still trembling from the shock, asking, "Xiao Hong, here you go—"

It's famous for its small size, it's definitely a great product, and it's sure to make the other person unable to resist it. So here's the question.

What would happen if the other person drank a lot of water and bananas in this situation?!

PS: Chapter 135, Alice's Arc 1.31: A night has passed since Alice talked to Mo Yi last night. As the sunlight shone on Mo Yi's face, his weary expression returned, and he woke up. Although exhausted, he still wasn't used to sleeping with her. In a sense, Mo Yi had avoided the bad end, because in the bad end, he would have died and become a doll, while now he felt a strange sense of satisfaction amidst his exhaustion. At this point, Mo Yi could only say that the saying 'ten times stronger when corrupted' was true. Fortunately, Alice hadn't turned corrupted yet, and her 'fighting power' was still within Mo Yi's capabilities. Alice, who hadn't slept, smiled happily upon seeing Mo Yi up, touched his face, and whispered, "Good morning, Mo Yi— " Mo Yi: "..." No, I don't need a good morning (omitted)

Chapter 248: Alice: Even at the Risk of Life

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Yakumo Yukari said nothing more, simply playing the role of an unfortunate, confused, and lost girl, her purpose being to continue lurking around Mo Yi.

After more than an hour and five trips by the time Yukari Yakumo landed, the group finally arrived at the outer edge of the Forest of Magic Eientei.

Outside, the rabbit spirits sent by the Her Highness the Princess to greet guests were already standing. The leader was naturally Reisen, while the other humanoid rabbit loli, Inaba Tei, had already slipped away to do her favorite thing: teasing others.

"Your Princess— "

Reisen spotted the Her Highness the Princess riding a bicycle from afar and immediately went up to greet her like a lackey—this was basic courtesy for a pet.

"You're back."

"Um--"

After the Her Highness the Princess, the other rabbits also bowed to Princess. This was a rehearsal, designed to highlight the Princess's status and let Mo Yi know that she, Houraisan Kaguya, was not Eientei's mascot!

"Reisen, stay here. The rest of you, go about your business."

Mo Yi: "..."

Seeing the Her Highness the Princess, Mo Yi was indeed taken aback. He finally remembered that although the Her Highness the Princess was unreliable, she was still the nominal landowner of Eientei. Now, she actually looked quite dignified and handsome.

The Her Highness the Princess, finally back in her own territory, thought to herself:

It's finally my turn! It's time for this Princess's Plan C to begin.

Her Highness the Princess's enthusiasm for organizing this Duel King Tournament is not only for helping Mo Yi complete the 'Plant King' strategy, but also for her own little schemes.

The reason she invited even a potential rival like Alice Megatron was to create such a large platform and then declare to Houraisan Kaguya entire Gensokyo her 'sovereignty' over Mo Yi. This was Kaguya's ulterior motive.

Unexpectedly, Mo Yi met Alice Megatron first, disrupting her perfect plan!

However, it's alright, things are back on track.

Her Highness the Princess has decided to continue with her original plan: to shower everyone with affection during the Duel King Tournament and nip future enemies in the bud. As for a mere Megatron, with home-field advantage, how could Kaguya possibly lose?!

"Mo Yi— "

After everyone got off the carriage, Her Highness the Princess Kaguya whispered:

"There are some details about the conference later that I need to discuss with you in detail—"

"Come with me to a safe place now, and don't forget about Yuuka Kazami."

Mo Yi: "..."

Well, now that the Princess said that, Mo Yi realized that he didn't have time to waste.

Because of a time travel error, I haven't been able to discuss the process and arrangements with the Her Highness the Princess yet.
