Chapter 92: The scene in Namimori Town [cg·Promise]…
...the tactical plan failed as expected.
Sawada Tsunayoshi was almost desensitized to such situations.
Seeing that Mukudera and Yamamoto were still struggling to communicate/demonstrate with the three people from Valia from a distance, he tapped the player's shoulder with his fingertips.
The idea of implementing the tactics without Valya's knowledge failed, and Sawada Tsunayoshi still wanted to ask for his opinion.
"It's possible though..."
The parties have no clear preference as to the candidate.
I'm just curious about the two candidates proposed by Tsunayoshi Sawada.
"Why didn't Sawada-san think of me first?"
"..." Sawada Tsunayoshi seemed surprised to be asked this question. His lips, which had been unconsciously pursed, loosened slightly. When he met the player's gaze, his eyes reflexively lowered, and his whole body exuded a helpless and reserved look.
The player stared at his frequently blinking eyelashes until the number he counted in his mind exceeded the units place, and finally heard Sawada Tsunayoshi's voice again.
"Because we're going to fight XANXUS and the others later, it might, uh, make a lot of noise. I'm a little worried about this area, so I thought I'd ask Yamamoto or Mukudera to distract them and keep an eye on them."
The voices of boys of this age group are not harsh. On the contrary, because of the lack of confidence shown by the owner, they give people a sense of being docile and easy to bully.
His hesitant tone, always as if he was worried about something, revealed his weakness for no reason.
These performances are often overlooked, but in fact, Sawada Tsunayoshi is an opponent that can make that XANXUS excited.
For example, now that the player didn't say anything, he was worried about being scolded, so he started to reflect on whether he had done something unnecessary, and he became visibly uneasy as the player's silence prolonged.
The player's attention is distracted without him realizing it.
Seriously speaking, judging by the high fighting spirit shown by Valya, no matter which of the three, Sawada Tsunayoshi, would be unable to get away after the start of the match was announced.
Staying away from players may be a good way to protect yourself.
"Although! This isn't meant to force Fushimi to choose a side." His words sounded hurried, as if desperate to increase his credibility, as he fluently unloaded the conversation he'd thought over countless times. "It's just, uh..."
When he realized that Fushimi Kyoji was looking at him, the momentum he had accumulated with great difficulty immediately weakened and he became hesitant again.
He looked at her cautiously with those adorable, wet eyes, and whispered, "I thought... Fushimi would feel more compatible with Yamamoto."
"Why do you have such an idea?"
I feel like I've heard similar words from Sawada Tsunayoshi more than once...
She probably doesn't laugh so heartily often?
“That’s it!”
Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly said excitedly, he probably didn't expect that he would make such a loud noise.
"Fushimi probably didn't notice that his words and expressions at times were very similar to Yamamoto's."
Always calm and not make a fuss about unexpected situations.
He is also adept at handling interpersonal relationships and treats others with neither servility nor arrogance.
They are the same kind of people.
Tsunayoshi Sawada didn't know how to express what he was thinking in words and was stuck for a moment.
"It was the same with Antrio. Fushimi and Yamamoto were very calm, not at all like..." he was embarrassed.
Sawada Tsunayoshi almost bit his tongue and stopped talking in annoyance.
The player saw from the corner of his eye that Yamamoto Takeshi was waving in the direction they were standing, and Gokudera Hayato also made a move to stand up and walk towards them, but unfortunately he was held by Yamamoto Takeshi's arm and could not move.
"It's about to start." The player reminded him.
"……Um."
The clear flame of death emerged from Sawada Tsunayoshi's forehead, and when he opened his eyes again, his pupils had been replaced by a bright orange-red.
"Isn't it really arbitrary to use personality to categorize compatibility? Or is it that the domineering side of Sawada-san's mafia side has begun to awaken?"
Faced with the teasing, Sawada Tsunayoshi just looked at her with a tolerant and calm look.
When Sawada Tsunayoshi enters the super death mode, it's like he has completely changed his personality.
He will no longer be so jumpy, and will show a funny expression of fear at the slightest disturbance.
It is said that Sawada Tsunayoshi is in an absolutely calm and rational state.
The player traced the unconsciously frowned features of the man in front of him, carefully confirming the calm expression on his face at the moment, and suddenly smiled.
What...
Isn't it exactly the same.
Making sure that Sawada Tsunayoshi could hear what she said next, the player stood still.
"Sawada-san, have you been troubled by this?"
The player didn't laugh and moved closer to him.
"The way Sawada-san sees me is the same as the way I see Sawada-san."
The distance between them was close, enough for him to see his own expression reflected in the other's eyes.
Calm, focused...
Sawada Tsunayoshi's eyes flickered, and his lips, which had been pursed until then, relaxed after entering a state of super-death energy. His lips were still bloodless: "...No."
"?"
The player is not sure whether Sawada Tsunayoshi is talking to her.
"I won't let Varia take you."
This firm attitude actually made Fushimi Kyoji genuinely confused.
The player still does not know the reason why Sawada Tsunayoshi resists the player from joining the Vongola.
I didn't understand, so I asked the same question.
"Why don't you want me to join the Mafia?"
The player recalled the loneliness on Sawada Tsunayoshi's face ten years later, which contained a heavy emotion that she did not understand, which could probably be classified as sadness.
The player thought for a moment and added, "You are not responsible for my choices."
So yeah.
Stop making that pitiful expression.
"no."
His lips moved open and closed twice, and he looked at her with calm eyes.
"No."
"Huh? Actually, my previous job was not much different from the mafia, and I even got a cadre position." Fushimi Kyoji couldn't help but remind him, feeling subtly looked down upon.
"I know, and I've never underestimated Fushimi."
He knew it from the first moment he saw the other person.
Fushimi can't do that.
The way things were done at Valya or at the Vongola didn't belong to her.
"But that's different from having the determination to kill the enemy," he said.
“Eh…”
There's no need to be so serious...
"I need it."
As if he could read the players' hearts from their expressions, Sawada Tsunayoshi said calmly.
Fushimi Kyoji said honestly: "The impression that Vongola has given me has always been that they are a friendly mutual aid society."
"Even the Vongola will hurt others, either voluntarily or under duress."
There is absolutely no way to replace Sawada Tsunayoshi's face into the above scenes.
He was silent for a moment. "...So many times that I can't even remember who I've punched."
In the super dead state, players can no longer easily know Sawada Tsunayoshi's mood as usual.
There was no sound of depression in his voice, and his speech was a little slow, which was inconsistent with what he had said before. He spoke clearly and logically about the enemies he had fought in the past.
"Some people were resurrected after I killed them, and the two families even became allies afterwards."
“Some people finally feel relieved when they are about to disappear.”
"Some... eventually died with resentment towards the world."
His eyes, as clear and bright as the flames above his head, clearly showed a calm and rational expression, but his face seemed to show reluctance, compassion, and struggling pain.
"Even if there are absolutely legitimate reasons, no one will resent or blame you..."
It is so light that it is almost in sync with breathing, and can be taken away silently by a gust of wind. As long as you want, you can ignore his voice at any time.
"...But, are you really happy about taking someone's life?"
“……” player.
She didn't think things were too complicated. Besides the mission, joining a faction would also give her more opportunities to interact with conquerable characters.
In the black and red camp of the brewery, the second-generation players committed crimes with Gin, the undercover fake wine and other criminals throughout the whole process, and the plot with the red police only appeared occasionally.
"...I was happy when I was with everyone, and now that I've joined the Vongola, I think I can continue like this. That's what I think."
"...If that's the case." He suddenly smiled with relief.
The calm expression suddenly shattered, revealing the gentleness of Sawada Tsunayoshi underneath.
How strange.
He had been so depressed not long ago, but after hearing her answer, he instantly smiled with a warmth that could melt anyone's heart.
"If that's the only reason..."
The arc of light flowing in his eyes drooped slightly and disappeared, and reappeared after he raised his eyes. Even the last sentence became light as if relieved of a heavy burden.
The soothing piano music unfolds, and the scene before my eyes is frozen at this moment.
【*CG·Commitment】
The young boy with a childish face closed his eyes, and the flame of death in the sky burned above his head.
——In the kendo field, Yamamoto Takeshi was correcting the player's movements, while Gokudera Hayato was sitting there bored.
—— Hayato Gokudera looked at Xiao Niu with disgust, Rambo cried and asked for help from the expressionless players, and Yamamoto Takeshi smiled naturally.
——Valia attacks, and Hayato Yamamoto Takeukuji stands in front of the player on both sides.
Translucent scenes appeared and disappeared.
The only thing in common is that Tsunayoshi Sawada does not appear in any of the above pictures.
The closed eyes slowly opened, and the pupils were as bright as the flames above the head.
——The scene suddenly changed, and the close-up on Sawada Tsunayoshi's face slowly switched to similar but different eyes.
Longing, envy, hesitation, loneliness and withdrawal...
There is also comfort, tolerance and a relaxed smile from the heart.
The complex look gradually switches from sour to light, and comes from the same person.
...The person who most frequently looked at his companions with obscure eyes was never the player or Yamamoto Takeshi.
That flame that never fades is like a lighthouse on the sea, guiding a heart that has never lost its way.
'His wish has never changed.'
"*(I want to see a carefree and relaxed smile on everyone's face.)"
A calm and firm heartbeat sounded at this moment.
“*(…That’s exactly why I’m fighting.)”
"*【Sawada Tsunayoshi】 Your favorability has reached 65. You will automatically enter the current character's HE path. CG will not affect your game progress!"
"*cg has been included in the achievement!"
Sawada Tsunayoshi's steady and serious voice sounded again, penetrating the audio currently playing in the CG and firmly reaching the player's ears.
It's like a promise that will definitely be fulfilled, and also like a guarantee of trust.
"I will reach you earlier than XANXUS."
…
The player stands on a cliff.
With her were Reborn, Fran, and...
There was a slight pulling sensation on the windbreaker, and Garkaphis lowered his head slightly, and the eyes behind the mask stared silently at the player.
He moved his hands slightly on the cane and adjusted the position of the ring.
I don’t know if it’s my eyes playing tricks on me, but the pattern on the ring on his finger seems to be... twisting?
"What are the consequences if the task is not completed?"
"What do you mean?" He tilted his head slightly, and the distance between him and the player inevitably shortened.
Fushimi Kyoji thought for a moment and said, "For example... the plot line is locked and can't be loaded again?"
Garkaface listened quietly and shook his head slightly. "We are committed to providing players with a perfect gaming experience."
“The game progress will not be penalized or restricted due to the player’s choices.”
"The player's decision always comes first."
Gakafis said something similar before.
"Generally speaking, joining a clan is the best way to directly interact with the conquerable characters." Gakaphis showed a hint of interest. "May I ask what made you want to give up the mission?"
“Will my answer also be classified as player feedback?”
Garkaphis chuckled softly, "You could also consider it my personal curiosity."
"There will always be characters with very high moral attributes, but their attitude will gradually soften and eventually compromise."
"If you're just feeling discouraged, you can be more patient. ... Of course, if you insist on canceling the mission, we absolutely respect the player's wishes."
Fushimi Kyoji looked at Sawada Tsunayoshi who flew to the foot of the mountain. The other party was standing with Yamamoto Gokudera. Perhaps he sensed the gaze on him, so he simply raised his hand to the player and signaled to her.
——And when he saw Gakaphis standing next to the player, he frowned silently.
The currently known plot does not mention why Tsunayoshi Sawada inherited the Vongola. The feeling of not wanting players to be involved in the world of the mafia is so sincere and full of expectations.
It's like expecting others to have better, brighter options.
"It's decided."
In fact, less than two seconds passed before he could no longer maintain the mature expression of deep thought on his face. Fushimi Kyoji narrowed his eyes and made a quick decision.
"Eh...after all, I think I'd be happier if I gave up the mission."
Gakaphis did not comment on her choice. A stiff smile was fixed on his black and white checkered mask. He placed one hand across his abdomen and gave the player a standard deacon's salute.
"As you wish, then."
"*Abandoned: [Mission 2]: Gain recognition from the clan leader and cadres and join any clan. (Note: You can find this mission and reopen it at any time in the history log.)"
