Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

……lie!She doesn't feel sorry for the Prime Minister at all!

For some reason, Munakata Reiji suddenly felt that even though they had only met for less than an hour, he had been able to guess a little bit of the subtext behind her words.

He also gave a short laugh because of this, and continued: "... In the afternoon, I returned to Qingyunliao, and then I have been working on the defense of the Imperial Pillar Pagoda... Maybe you also know that the Green Clan threatened to Raiding the Pillar Tower on Christmas Eve, stealing the Dresden Stones—”

The narrow smile on her face disappeared.She nodded with a very serious expression.

Munakata Reishi paused for a moment before slowly speaking:

"I have been busy until late at night before I have time to go to the Imperial Pillar Tower. Then, I sat between the stone slabs all night, as usual, trying to find a suitable way to communicate with the slate and suppress its power—"

"And then, I remember it was really near dawn, and I felt a sudden bout of drowsiness. I probably fell asleep after that - until I woke up and realized I was here."

He finished the last paragraph dryly, trying to control his brain not to think about the chaotic things that happened after he woke up.

He waited for her response.But she seemed to be in a daze for a while before she said: "In your opinion, did anything special happen during the past day?"

Munakata Reishi replied dryly: "No, there is nothing particularly noteworthy. It's just a normal daily process."

She was silent for a long time after listening, and finally, as if trying to pull herself together, she let out a short chuckle.

"...It seems that you feel that 'repairing the Prime Minister' is your normal daily behavior~"

There seemed to be a small hook in the end of her laughing voice, which made Munakata Reiji instantly embarrassed.

"Cough. Sitting in my position, it is indeed necessary to have normal and necessary communication with the Prime Minister from time to time." He replied with a serious attitude.

Not knowing which point in his answer touched her, the smile on her face seemed to deepen.

Then, she nodded slightly and said, "Then let me describe the situation on my side as well."

"Obviously, our time here is much later than yours... Here, the Green Clan did cause huge chaos, but in the end we solved the big trouble they caused."

"Now, the slate has been destroyed, so whether it is you, Zhou Fangzun, or the other 'kings', they have lost all the abilities granted by the sword of Damocles and the Dresden slate."

"The significance of SCEPTER4's continuation to this day is to deal with those 'outsiders' who still retain some superpowers after the slate is destroyed, as well as some other special events." She said.

Munakata Reisi was taken aback.

"After the slate was destroyed, is there still someone with the superpowers given by the slate?"

Liu Quan Xinya nodded silently, thought for a while and added: "Their superpowers also gradually decay with time. However, there is still a period of time until they disappear, and we need to deal with them..."

Reji Munakata immediately asked: "Then what about the abilities of SCEPTER4... clan members?"

Liu Quan Xinya gave him a subtle look before answering.

"It's still continuing to decay...but it probably hasn't completely disappeared yet."

Reiji Munakata: "! Oh..."

Liuquan Xinya glanced at him again.This time, he was sure there was a smile in her eyes.

"You seem a little envious of them..." she said lightly.

Munakata Reishi thought for a while, smiled wryly, and replied honestly: "There is indeed a little bit.... After all, think about it, as a king, my abilities have disappeared, but the abilities of my subordinates are still there... More or less it will make people feel a little shameless.”

Liu Quan let out a hearty laugh, and the atmosphere on her body seemed to be more friendly; she comforted him and said to him: "Believe me, when the slate was destroyed, you were already on the verge of falling off the sword... instead of it happening For such a bad thing, it’s better to simply make the slate disappear quickly..."

Reji Munakata was a little surprised.

"Did I almost drop my sword here too? But didn't Zhou Fangzun die? I don't have to bear the backlash of killing the king, how could my sword of Damocles—"

Liuquan Xinya sighed.

"That's one of the things I'm trying to illustrate," she said.

"That's why I didn't become a member of your clan, but still held such an important position in the Fourth Branch of the Family Registration Division of the Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau."

Munakata Reishi's face could not help but become serious, and his expression became much more focused.

Liu Quan Xinya thought for a while, then sighed again.

"The whole thing is a long story... In short, in this world, everyone started studying in the 'Chaowei Middle School' on Academy Island."

Reiji Munakata: "'Super Wei Middle School'?! Isn't there only one 'Wei Middle School' on Academy Island??"

Liu Quan Xinya seems to be well adapted to what he said.

"Maybe starting here is where the difference between our two worlds begins," she said.

"In short, we are all students there. That academy accepts students who are 'outsiders', especially those whose abilities run amok and cannot be controlled... After such students enroll, they must choose to join the Aobe and Akabe Or one of the Ministry of Silver, under the supervision of your three 'kings'."

Munakata Reiji adapted well to this simple and straightforward club name.He even made quick inferences.

"So you're an 'outsider'? You joined the Youth Department after school, didn't you?"

He had just finished asking, but he found that the expression on Liu Quan Xinya's face seemed a little strange, it looked both nostalgic and sentimental, and there was a sense of irony; finally, she sighed and said: "Well , that's it."

That statement always struck him as a little strange.However, Munakata Reiji was eager to understand the next plot, so he didn't ask further.

Liu Quan Xinya continued: "Until the eve of your third year of high school graduation, one night, we were working overtime in the student meeting room, but we got a piece of news——"

She paused, staring into his eyes with burning eyes, and said word by word: "The Colorless King intends to kill ten bundles of Tatara on the rooftop of the Birazaka Building."

Reiji Munakata:! ! !

"...And then? What happened?!" He almost squeezed out these two questions from between his teeth.He could feel the excitement and tremor in his voice—his intuition clamored to tell himself that this event was the turning point for the world to become so complete.

Liuquan Xinya looked directly at him.There was peace in those clear eyes.

"Then we just rushed out and tried to get to the scene before the Colorless King did it and stop him from doing it," she said.

"Fortunately... we arrived in time. You drew your sword and fought him, while I stepped aside with ten bundles of tatara."

"But...unfortunately, the Colorless King wants to snatch my body as a host." She calmly said the news that almost directly exploded Munakata Reji's brain.

"After a fight, I killed him."

Reiji Munakata: "...What did you say?!"

His brain was buzzing, and for the first time in his life, it felt as if it was going to go on strike.

...An ordinary "outsider" directly killing the king? !

"Xiao Heijun lent me his 'reason' for a while." Facing his shocking gaze, she added lightly.

Munakata Reishi: "..."

Fine.Now he seems to have a little understanding of why his "self" in this world chose her as his lover.

"Then... Didn't killing the king cause any huge harm to you?" He asked in disbelief.

Liu Quan Xinya looked at him, then suddenly smiled bitterly.

"Yes." She said.

"I was seriously injured and was ejected directly from this world."

Munakata Reishi: "...you said, what?!"

His brain was about to be blown out by this series of explosive news.He could feel that the speed of his brain had become very slow, and he could only repeat the syllables of exclamation and rhetorical question like a parrot.

Liuquan Xinya looked back at him calmly.

"It wasn't ejected directly after killing the king...it was after I went abroad to study." She said, "For several years, my consciousness was wandering in the void...until one day, a force Pushed me back here again. I landed on the street that was already in chaos, and then found that your sword of Damocles had become tattered, and it was covered with blue lightning..."

Munakata Reiji gasped.

He knew what kind of scene she was describing.

He had seen such a scene on Zhou Fangzun's body before.

The last moment before dropping the sword.

"Then...was the slab destroyed in time?" he asked, hearing a slight fluctuation in his voice.

Liu Quan Xinya stared at him for a long time, as if she wanted to see through his skin and find a certain shadow from under it.

Finally, she said softly: "Then, I pulled out the 'reason' from Little Heijun, stood behind you, and told you that when the final moment comes, I will be the one who executes the act of killing the king. "

Reiji Munakata:! ! !

At this moment, he seemed to be able to clearly feel the deep love that this young girl had for him—for the "Munakata Reishi" here.That love has now turned into an overwhelming sadness in the air, floating in this apartment.

He wanted to say "I think at that moment I should ask Awashima-kun to do this", and he wanted to say "I shouldn't want to see you shoulder those heavy responsibilities", but in the end, he It seems that nothing can be said.

In the almost suffocating silence, she was the first to speak.

"I want to save you, Munakata-kun."

Reiji Munakata:! !

His eyes widened in surprise.

However, she continued calmly:

"Even in such a desperate moment, I want to save you."

"But... if it is really impossible to save you, I will do the right thing, follow the righteous thing—"

She stopped and stared at him for a long time.

"...whether something like that hurts me or not," she said.

"I won't hide behind Seri... Awashima-kun because I'm weakly surrendering to my pain."

"I want you to see...your righteousness, with me, will receive the highest respect."

Reiji Munakata:! ! !

A similar dialogue seemed to pop up in his mind suddenly.

【However, Munakata Reiji himself only wants to save you, Zhou Fang! 】

[As one of the Seven Kings, and as SCEPTER4's duty, I must defeat you. 】

[With such a hearty expression, thank you for being able to say it... If you really feel sorry, you should think of a way before it evolves to this kind of result! 】

……

Was there a similar conversation between them at that time? ...

He seems to finally understand why in this world, he would choose such a young woman who is not even a member of his own clan as his special assistant, let her enter his apartment and become his pillow, Dominate half of his own world—

That's because the "self" here is convinced that only she is the most suitable woman for him and the most worthy of his affection.

It's not a simple bed partner, nor is it a romantic relationship.This woman is probably the "self" here, the chosen life partner.

He finally started to think about one thing——

When he came here, where did the original "Munakata Reishi" go in this world?

"...I'm sorry," he whispered at last.

"I'm not him... I'm sorry."

After saying this, he saw that a big teardrop gushed out of her eye socket, slid down her cheek, and fell onto the table with a thud.

The author has something to say:

February 1:

What the girl told the head of the room was only part of the truth.

It's not that the girl doesn't trust the room chief, but she feels that the most important thing at this moment is to enhance mutual trust and find a solution to the problem as soon as possible. The defensive heart【.

Next update: tomorrow at midnight.
