Although the system said that it had never made any promises to Shi Wu, after Shi Wu showed negative emotions about hurting ordinary people, even though Shi Wu did not blame itself, the system never showed any emotions either - but in terms of the mission, the system still chose the one that would not make Shi Wu feel dissatisfied. Even though he himself did not realize it.
If you say saving the world, then it really is saving the world.
It will not hurt anyone, and it can even save others.
Because that world was about to collapse, the system chose that world.
[You don't have to do anything, and you can't do anything now. You just need to let nature take its course and let them save that world.]
The system said this.
[The energy to save a world, the changes in the world line that occur in it, the power that represents distortion, is what you need most now. 】
The system is telling the truth. Without the flame, Shi Wu can't do anything. He can only rely on Tsunayoshi Sawada to make a choice.
And in this situation, it is almost certain what choice Tsunayoshi Sawada will make.
If Tsunayoshi Sawada doesn't know, he certainly won't do anything. But he went to the world ten years ago. Although there is no [Tsunayoshi Sawada] in that world, there is also Nana Sawada.
It is impossible for Tsunayoshi Sawada to give up Nana Sawada. Nana's mother alone is enough for Tsunayoshi Sawada to make a choice.
After Shoichi Irie told him this conclusion, Tsunayoshi Sawada's first reaction was - "How should we save that world?"
Shoichi Irie was not surprised at his reaction at all, and his wrinkled brows loosened slightly, but his stomach seemed to hurt even more. The red-haired researcher looked at Tsunayoshi Sawada helplessly: "...Then, maybe we need to contact Lady Byakuran, Tsunayoshi-kun."
Who else knows more about parallel worlds than Byakuran?
So at this moment, the number of people with stomachaches increased from one to two. The two looked at each other under the lights in the middle of the night.
Time goes back to the present -
because there is a system that can reveal spoilers, a system with a comprehensive plan, and Tokiwa is really relaxed.
In fact, he didn't understand the concept of saving the world or the world's collapse at all, and he didn't even know what flames were.
No one could expect a 14-year-old boy to understand what this term meant so quickly after receiving the dry mission of "saving the world." Especially since the current vest belongs to Tsunayoshi Sawada.
If the system had directly told him to protect Nana Sawada, Tokiwa would have understood it better.
But the system didn't say anything like that. He didn't even remind Tokiwa that Nana Sawada also existed in another world.
It's not that Tokiwa couldn't think of it, but without having met the other person, the emotion was too empty.
Therefore, Shiwu did not feel too many other emotions about what Tsunayoshi Sawada said now. On the contrary, he even seemed a little confused at this moment.
Perhaps it was because the last world caused Shiwu's emotions to fluctuate too much, and the system began to intentionally or unintentionally block people or things that made Shiwu have strong emotions because of others.
He even took the initiative to control the direction of the future in his own way.
[To Tsunayoshi Sawada: "So, I tried to save the world."]
Shiwu blinked. He thought he was going to save this world before, but it turned out that the system was referring to another parallel world.
——That parallel world Shiwu had never been to. It was the world that the system had deceived the Bazooka ten years later and took Tsunayoshi Sawada to.
Shi Wu has no concept of parallel worlds, and he won't lie - but what he's saying now is not a lie.
So this also leads to Shi Wu's tone being quite ethereal. It's obviously the truth, but Shi Wu has a subtle feeling of deception.
"So... I tried to save the world?" Shi Wu said this in an uncertain tone.
[……]
After he finished speaking, the system gave him an ellipsis. And Sawada Tsunayoshi also fell silent.
Super intuition is too much of a cheat, and Sawada Tsunayoshi also felt Shi Wu's contradictory emotions.
It's the truth, it's the truth, but the owner of this sentence thinks that his behavior has a certain... mistake? He doesn't think this way is correct, but he can't think of a better way, so he can only do this.
——This is indeed the emotion that Tokiwa is feeling now.
The atmosphere has inexplicably become heavy. And what broke this heaviness was the very familiar stomach-ache voice of Tsunayoshi Sawada.
As if afraid that it would not attract attention, the voice that was as sweet as cotton candy, with a brisk tone, greeted Tsunayoshi Sawada from above: "Hey, Tsunayoshi-kun, long time no see."
Tsunayoshi Sawada turned around helplessly, and as expected, he saw Shiran with wings on his back, falling from the sky.
Shiran's wings are not real feathers, but a form of flame.
But before Tsunayoshi Sawada could say anything in response, he noticed that the boy next to him suddenly grabbed his hand——and the expression on the boy's face was straightforward vigilance and defense.
This emotion is also familiar to Tsunayoshi Sawada. Ten years ago, he and his partners had the same attitude towards Byakuran.
Hostility, murderous intent, vigilance, and a certain amount of fear.
Tsunayoshi Sawada has killed people, and no one can ask a mafia leader to be "clean". However, the time and target of the first person killed by Tsunayoshi Sawada may be surprising.
Tsunayoshi Sawada has defeated many people, he has defeated Rokudo Mukuro and xanxus, but Tsunayoshi Sawada has never killed anyone.
Except for one person, that is Byakuran - the Byakuran who destroyed countless worlds ten years later.
That was the first time that Tsunayoshi Sawada had real blood on his hands, and he has never regretted it.
Because what Shiran did was too much, it was unacceptable to Sawada Tsunayoshi, and Sawada Tsunayoshi would never forgive him - so, that Shiran disappeared in his flames, leaving no body behind.
So when he returned to this world, Shiran, who had done nothing ten years ago, compensated for everything he did in the future. He was imprisoned and no longer had the opportunity to hurt anyone.
But thanks to Yuni's assurance, Byakuran was able to leave there and regain the Marel Ring.
Even Byakuran saved Yamamoto Takeshi once - this made Sawada Tsunayoshi believe that Byakuran was not the enemy he knew.
It might be a coincidence that he knew Irie Shoichi, but it happened that he showed hostility to Byakuran ten years ago...
Sawada Tsunayoshi and Byakuran who fell from the sky looked at each other, and Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't help but comfort him: "Don't worry, he is not an enemy." Shi Wu looked
at the wings behind Byakuran uncertainly - he always found it difficult to be kind to non-humans, and he didn't pick up and draw the knife (he didn't have a knife now) to attack Byakuran on the spot, but the bandage on his body stopped him.
Tokichi grabbed Sawada Tsunayoshi's wrist and even tried to stand in front of Sawada Tsunayoshi - Tokichi wanted to protect Sawada Tsunayoshi, even though he clearly knew that Sawada Tsunayoshi was stronger than him. This was his subconscious reaction.
Realizing this, Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't help but soften his expression. He earnestly guaranteed Shiran, trying to make the vigilant child relax a little: "Believe me, Shiran is my friend. He won't hurt me."
"What? Looking at me with such eyes, even if it was me, I would be sad, Tsunayoshi-kun." Shiran retracted the wings behind him and put on a white coat.
He has always had enough interest in the individual existence of "Sawada Tsunayoshi". For him, there have always been only two people who stand at the same height as him.
One is Yuni, and the other is Sawada Tsuneyoshi.
Bai Lan pointed at the purple inverted crown under her eyes, and looking at Shi Wu who looked particularly petite and fragile sitting in the wheelchair, she couldn't help but sighed: "Tsuneyoshi, you were really so small when you were a child~"
And this tone made Shi Wu get goosebumps all over his body.
Shi Wu looked at the wings disappearing behind Bai Lan uncertainly. He found that his throat became a little hoarse, and hesitantly said: "He, really..."
"It's really not an enemy." Sawada Tsuneyoshi's expression became helpless, and he asked Bai Lan: "Are you the only one who came here, where is Yuni?"
Noticing that the key word in Sawada Tsuneyoshi's words was "people", Shi Wu carefully relaxed his vigilant body.
But to be honest - can humans now make wings appear behind them? ! Is this really a human and not a ghost? !
Shi Wu looked up at the big sun at the moment, and after confirming that Bai Lan was not afraid of the sun and had a shadow, he let go of Sawada Tsunayoshi's hand - only then did he notice that his action just now was too strong, and even left a small handprint on Sawada Tsunayoshi's wrist.
Shi Wu was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously said: "... Sorry!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi certainly didn't care about such a small matter.
And the person Sawada Tsunayoshi mentioned also walked over from the corner at this moment. The girl with a small flower on her cheek said helplessly: "Bai Lan, you scared him."
Yuni slowly walked in front of Shi Wu - Yuni was originally a generation younger than Sawada Tsunayoshi and others, and now she is the same age as Shi Wu. Even if Shi Wu is sitting in a wheelchair, he can look Yuni in the eye without looking up.
Yuni smiled at Shi Wu with kindness. This smile was as bright as the sun and as tolerant as the sky.
"Don't worry, Bai Lan won't do anything to hurt anyone."
Yuni and Sawada Tsunayoshi ignored Bai Lan's dissatisfied complaints. The three special "Dakong" gathered in this small base.
Yuni took the initiative to hold Shi Wu's hand. The girl with the ability to predict and perceive said softly: "This world is very safe. There are no dangers like you imagined, and it will not collapse so easily."
"Are you willing to choose to believe me?" Yuni asked Shi Wu.
——And Shi Wu, will never be able to refuse such a smile.
The author has something to say: Bai Lan: ...So I was almost expelled from the human race?
Shi Wu: Who gave you wings!
