It's still out of reach.
A sacred mark chosen from among millions...
As for me...
Even knowing this—knowing that I am just an ordinary person—I still felt somewhat disheartened after failing to do what an ordinary person did in a fanfiction I had once read.
"You can try to explore Yae's area, specifically the area behind the pink-haired fox. There might be things you can use. Even disregarding the Stigmata, the sword she carries is still called God..."
"--No."
The well-intentioned advice was rejected without hesitation.
Girls who were theoretically in a mild state during this period.
why?
what happened?
Jiang Cheng raised his head in confusion, but his softened brown pupils suddenly trembled and turned into astonishment in an instant—because the slender fingertips reflected in them, which had been wringing a towel just minutes before, were now holding a samurai sword that was mainly crimson, with a design and relief that extended like samurai armor, extremely unrestrained and flamboyant, and with a blood-stained, eerie and bewitching beauty.
No need to think, no need to recall... one can name this incredibly flamboyant weapon simply by witnessing it.
That was the Twelfth Divine Key that was never created.
The ultimate weapon that harbors the power of corruption.
Its name is Jizo Mitama.
why?
Why did it end up in Raiden Mei's hands?
Everything that had been expected was shattered in an instant. After the anticipated death disappeared, an unimaginable bizarre scene followed. All the doubts were resolved with the girl's next words.
The exceptionally well-behaved girl in sight was looking down, her eyes, which should have been filled with sorrow and melancholy, were shimmering with a hint of light.
It's just like a child seeking praise after doing something.
she says.
"I have already killed Miss Yae."
……
……
……
what?
what! !
After a long period of preparation, the boy could only stare wide-eyed, open his mouth, and weakly utter that single, feeble character in his heart.
That's so strange, isn't it?
Raiden Mei was able to kill...
Or rather, she was actually able to accept killing a person.
To kill an innocent person, to kill a lonely person who had no real conflict with her and who had only just arrived in this world five hundred years in the future.
This means that several subsequent manga chapters will be canceled, and Theresa will really be finished after being brutally beaten by Yuno... and the butterfly effect that follows will be even more...
It doesn't matter.
They were already prepared to break the storyline.
If you can't even survive, then no matter how wonderful the story is, it's meaningless.
What is shocking is what Raiden Mei did—to kill someone without any mercy. You know, killing Yae Sakura would have been more appropriate and reasonable to leave to the Raiden Queen.
But it's true.
The plot points that even novels wouldn't dare use are real.
“I don’t really know what a Stigmata is, but since you said I’m a genius, I should have one, so I tried looking on myself and found a mark on my lower back… It’s a little different from the mark I used to turn Yae Sakura into you.”
The girl continued to chatter on and on.
The hand that was gripping the weapon suddenly turned into another hand, which reached down to grope for the straightened body.
Those slender fingertips were holding onto the hem of the sailor uniform skirt. The skirt, which was already on the edge and only half-covered the thigh, seemed to be teetering on the verge of falling, with the absolute territory within reach.
"Don't!"
……
PS: It might be a bit padded out, but the previous encounter was to make this part feel less abrupt—Mei helping Jiang Cheng.
Do you think our writing is terrible?
Chapter 18 Rejecting Mei's Confession
Jiang Cheng hurriedly tried to stop him, even forgetting for a moment that he no longer had a right hand. His body, which he had been used to for more than ten years, suddenly became unbalanced, and his tendency to lean to the right almost caused him to fall.
The girl, who was originally going to pull up her skirt, noticed this and threw away the long sword in her hand, and hurriedly caught the tilting Jiang Cheng.
The Key of God, which could attract the vast majority of people in the world, fell to the ground like scrap metal.
Those purple eyes didn't even linger for a moment.
The tender little hands caught the disabled boy immediately.
It has already transcended any other action—the inner self is reflected in the eyes that look to the other side.
That was a girl biting her lip, not understanding and seemingly having some ulterior motives, and a boy who absolutely could not tolerate it and could not accept it no matter what.
fear……
Because I saw the seriousness in those beautiful eyes.
That moment of seriousness was just like something out of anime or novels I've read countless times. The moment Raiden Mei opened her mouth, her pearly teeth gently biting her lower lip, she was about to say something that was no trivial matter.
"Please don't do that. I know you have a Holy Mark, and I can feel the Holy Mark behind me now."
"Girls... no, everyone should take their bodies seriously, especially you, the protagonist."
……
It is not a lie meant to comfort others.
Jiangcheng could indeed feel the brand and the marks on his back.
That was proof of a talent that belonged to a very small number of people, the minimum requirement to survive in this world, and the opportunity he was pursuing—the chance to survive.
The confusion he felt upon waking overwhelmed this feeling, and only now did he truly realize that he was controlling something, that he could control something, and that there was a strange flow within his body... It seemed that there was some usable energy residing in this body.
He couldn't use it skillfully yet, as he had only just acquired it. Even so, Jiang Cheng could vaguely sense that he could attach this power to himself or extend it outwards.
Although he is now disabled and has lost an arm, his overall combat effectiveness is still much stronger.
At least I never felt like I could kill a cow.
The kind that only requires one punch.
As a Muggle who had lived for over a decade before transmigrating, the feeling of wielding extraordinary power was incredibly novel. Even just being at the beginner level was enough to make most people in the world laugh like idiots.
The reason she didn't immediately try it out like a child buying a new toy was simply because there was still something to do—to stop Raiden Mei's actions.
"Please don't do such a thing. Your life is not at the point where it should stop. Right now, you've only saved my life, and I haven't paid you the corresponding compensation yet."
"Therefore, I cannot allow or accept it. I want to see my benefactor do something irrational that he will definitely regret in the future, because he became like this because of his excitement."
He really had no intention of taking advantage of the girl's gratitude at this moment, and he really didn't intend to just taste her beautiful body.
will not!
absolute!
Absolutely not! !
Is he planning to climb up based on just a fleeting feeling, only to be kicked aside or have the relationship end badly once the gratitude fades and the girl realizes his incompetence and ordinariness?
Raiden Mei's actions were indeed touching, and she should definitely find a way to repay Lin Mengliuling (II) Er Shi (VIII) Ba Shi En Qing when she had the chance in the future.
That is precisely why it is necessary to stay away, to distance oneself from the protagonist as an ordinary person, rather than interfering with the smooth path ahead for the other party.
The boy had always had a sense of self-assessment, especially after two failures, which gave him a profound understanding of how ordinary and incompetent he was.
A fleeting, heroic romance is still too far removed from ordinary people. The reason why ordinary people are ordinary is largely because their values are also ordinary.
Jiang Cheng at least likes pure love, which might be called foolish or old-fashioned... but once he falls for someone, he can't help but like them very, very much.
I hate impurities.
Especially love.
"I really like..."
A resolute gaze blocked all the words that were about to be uttered. The determination that she wanted to say subconsciously, the seriousness that flashed in her beautiful eyes, all seemed as weak and vulnerable as tofu in the emotions reflected in her gray-brown pupils.
Jiang Cheng rejected Raiden Mei's explanation.
Reject any emotional reactions.
They didn't even give him a chance to speak up and confirm his thoughts.
"Please allow me to repeat what I said before: all of this is just a phase for you now. All the seemingly disastrous things will be laughed off in the future, so don't do anything that you'll regret."
“Essentially... I’m a guy who knows a lot but doesn’t do it well, really insignificant.”
"I was just a mentor during the beginner stage, although I won't be too outdated even in the later stages."
……
……
Every word was true, every word contained no lies, and every word was a genuine expression of loyalty and concern for her—Raiden Mei.
Considering others, so refusing others... even the Queen of Thunder felt something was amiss when she saw this.
Although she didn't think that momentary excitement was a good thing.
Mei, who was directly involved, was completely speechless.
Literally and psychologically.
The authority that belongs to oneself naturally allows one to perceive the truth—to perceive that Jiang Cheng did not lie.
"You need to learn to be rational and to think more."
"The right person is never someone you feel is right because of a momentary impulse; it's a truly long-term decision."
“Especially for a protagonist like you who is destined to rise to the top, everything now is just a fleeting cloud to you, a small existence that will be erased.”
I can't do anything.
I'm just a hated guy.
There wasn't even a chance to say such things aloud—the sense of certainty about happiness was overwhelming at that moment.
The reasons he drew his sword when facing Yae Sakura were so numerous that even the person he was about to kill could affirm him—just like admitting that he wasn't an impolite young lady.
It was right there in the boy's eyes.
Within words.
"Now you want me to reveal some more truths, that is, your father is actually an executor of anti-entropy, and your bloodline is noble, something that neither I nor they can reach."
"You need to believe in yourself. Even I believe in you, so why can't you believe in yourself for my sake... for your own sake?"
Although the words were spoken too quickly, it was clear that some of the comfort offered was based on a formula.
This concern is truly genuine.
He was looking at me—that much was certain.
Jiang Cheng is looking at me.
So hot……
So warm.
……
Did he survive Chapter 19...?
