Ayanokouji Kiyotaka 161

Title: Projection Complete

Everyone soon arrived at the main hall of the palace. Emilia delivered her final speech in the middle of the palace. The next step was to wear the crown and summon the dragon to sign the contract.

Whether the Kingdom of Lugnica was too reliant on dragons, Ayanokouji didn’t care, as long as it could ensure the stability and security of the country, it was enough.

Looking at the scene in front of him, he felt a sense of closure in his heart. Although the Witch of Melancholy and the Witch of Vainglory were still around, at least the issue of Emilia’s ascension to the throne had ended successfully.

As for those two, there would be enough time for Reinhard to track them down.

At this moment, Emilia was wearing the crown, which meant that she had officially become the Queen of Lugnica, and at the same time, a very dazzling light bloomed around her.

The corner of Ayanokouji’s mouth also curved slightly at this moment.

“Kiyo, you’re smiling, I thought you had facial paralysis.”

Beatrice, who was being carried by him, raised her head and looked at him.

”Am I smiling?”

Ayanokouji extended his other hand and gently touched the corner of his mouth, recalling his expression just now.

It seemed that he was indeed smiling now.

Was this the second time or the first?

Ayanokouji never thought that such an expression would appear on him, but it seemed like it wasn’t a bad thing.

After Emilia successfully ascended the throne, what should he do?

Ayanokouji was thinking, but he quickly raised his head again, his eyes fixed on the people around him, and he seemed to have an idea in mind.

He smiled again, and this time he could feel it clearly.

[Projection ends]

❀❀❀

In the sky of the Kingdom of Lugnica, the image had disappeared, and no one had returned there for a long time.

Some people considered it a miracle, while others found that it might be a prophecy about the future and began to prepare.

“Lia, you did it!” Puck smiled and said to Emilia.

“Congratulations!”

“This is just an illusion! And... I don’t agree with Ayanokouji’s actions.” Emilia said seriously.

“From an objective standpoint, Ayanokouji helped you Lia.”

“I know... but I don’t agree with the methods he used.” Emilia shook her head.

“What should we do? If Ayanokouji really did time travel and came to this world, Lia, would you choose to avoid him?”

“No, no, I would still choose to meet him!”

Emilia’s expression became very firm.

“Although the Ayanokouji in the illusion has done many unforgivable things, these things haven’t happened yet, and I know what he experienced in the past. In a sense, he has experienced that past, he is the one who needs to be redeemed!”

“Are you serious, Lia?”

“Um!”

Emilia nodded enthusiastically,

“In the illusion, I could clearly feel the change in Ayanokouji. Although I don’t know if he will be as cruel as he is in the illusion when he comes to this world, but I have to meet him!”

❀❀❀

“Ayanokouji.”

Beatrice stroked the Gospel in her arms.

“Even though it was just an illusion, Betty can feel redeemed... Even though it was wrong and deceitful, in the end it gradually became reality?”

A smile appeared on Beatrice’s face, then she turned and looked out the window – it wasn’t Roswaal’s mansion, but the streets of the royal capital – the location where Ayanokouji passed by in the image.

Although the Ayanokouji in the image initially deceived her, Beatrice could sense the change and difference in the other person later on.

The self in the illusion seemed very happy and content.

Beatrice could also feel his struggle and attachment to what are called emotions and interpersonal relationships.

“You are indeed the person, Betty. It can be said that you and Betty are imprisoned in a certain confinement. This time, it’s up to me to redeem you.”

❀❀❀

“Master, I can’t wait any longer.”

Elsa hid behind a large cloak, hiding in the dark alleys of the street, observing the people passing by, her fingers gently placed on her lips.

“If I can really meet my Master, I would be willing to be Master’s sword again. That would be amazing!”

❀❀❀

In another world, Ayanokouji looked at the screen that turned pitch black while thinking.

The self on the screen was smiling?

What was the reason? Was it because the other self finally understood what is called worldliness?

For the first time, he felt a strong desire for an answer.

He didn’t know why the self in the image gradually had different choices from his current self, he was eager to know the reason.

“Ayanokouji... It’s over.”

Horikita turned and looked at him.

Although she couldn’t explain the reason, during that period of time, she was very interested in the video that was like a TV series. When it ended, she even felt a sense of loss.

Would this video happen in the future?

If so, would Ayanokouji really be teleported?

Then the Ayanokouji in this world would be gone?

Horikita’s heart was full of doubts, but when she thought that Ayanokouji might be transferred to a dangerous world, even if a perfect ending was achieved in the end, it was too difficult in the middle.

If it were an ordinary person, they might die hundreds of times.

There was even a possibility of spending dozens of lives and still not being able to escape the first level – the pursuit from Elsa.

Now that the video has ended, there is no way to know what will happen next.

“But… is this really over?”

❀❀❀

In the Alaya space, Albert raised his glasses and saw that the progress of the projection had reached 100%, and he had also gained 100 energy points. He could use these points to strengthen the people on his planet.

However, he only had 100 energy points now, which could only strengthen one or two people, and couldn’t cover the entire planet. Only after the two worlds merged could Albert gain more energy points to strengthen everyone.

Albert turned and saw that the progress of world integration was very slow, almost stuck at 0%.

“This has to wait until when?”

Just when he felt pressured, he suddenly remembered the reminder on the console – sending the projected protagonist to the fusion material world first could speed up the progress of the fusion of the two worlds.

In this way, if Ayanokouji’s body was transferred to the Re Zero world...

However, this had to ensure that the protagonist could survive normally in another world, if Ayanokouji continued to trigger Return by Death in another world, the progress of integration might not be accelerated.

Now in the Re Zero world, after watching the video, everyone already knows the details of Ayanokouji. Even if he has the Return by Death ability, it might not be easy to complete that world, because Ayanokouji has lost all his intelligence advantages. Everyone already knows his abilities and character, and the tricks he used before have no effect at all.

Albert’s eyes were fixed on his remaining 100 energy points.

❀❀❀

In the world controlled by Alaya, after the video ended, everyone’s life gradually returned to normal.

Ayanokouji was thinking about what would happen if he really traveled to another world someday.

Now he has a lot of information, if he goes to the world where Emilia lives, he should be able to achieve the final goal without experiencing death.

However, all this is based on the premise that the other party doesn’t know his own details.

The video was played in his own world without any warning, and Ayanokouji wondered if people in other worlds might also have information about him.

If that was the case, his advantage would be lost, and the future would become unpredictable.

Ayanokouji began to think about the possible changes in that world based on the worst-case scenario, and think about future plans.

The situations he might face, which people were worth winning over, and which people should be eliminated.

At this moment, Ayanokouji and the other students were in class, and Chabashira Sae was the teacher today.

Although the issue of the video was still a hot topic of discussion, everyone’s life hasn’t changed at all.

“Next...”

As Chabashira was giving a lecture, the screen where the slides were projected suddenly changed.

[Is the world you live in really what you think it is?]

[Perhaps, the truth of this world is far beyond your imagination, and even beyond the reach of most of your human thinking abilities]

[This is a revelation from God]

[This is a story that belongs to the present]

[Please participate well]

“Again?”

“Is it the video again?”

“Who is it this time?!”

Everyone was talking a lot, and their eyes were full of anticipation.

Only Ayanokouji realized that the lines that appeared this time were different from before.

What it said last time was about the ‘future’, but now it’s about the ‘present’.

Could it be said?

At this moment, Ayanokouji’s body was enveloped by a burst of light.

“Ayanokouji!?”

Beside him, Horikita seemed to realize something, and she immediately stood up and prepared to hold him, but when she stretched out her hand, she didn’t touch anything, and Ayanokouji also disappeared.

“NO......”

At the same time, the image on the screen changed.

❀❀❀

Ayanokouji opened his eyes and found himself in darkness.

He knew that he had time traveled, but he found that he didn’t come directly to the streets of the royal capital like in the previous image, but was now in a strange space.

At this moment, Ayanokouji’s eyes showed countless particles of light flowing rapidly.

[Chosen Child, you have two chances to extract abilities, and you can bring them to another world]

A completely unfamiliar voice sounded in his ears, and he quickly understood the meaning.

This was his chance to get new trump cards.

If the people from other worlds already knew his information, they would most likely capture him alive and imprison him, without even giving him a chance to use Return by Death.

This extracted ability would be his new advantage in another world.

His eyes were fixed on the countless flowing particles of light, and he reached out his hand and grabbed one of them.

[Obtain the ultimate skill ‘Mystery’, the existence of the Son of the World itself is full of mystery]

“Conceal ability?” Ayanokouji nodded slightly. When people from other worlds know about his intelligence, this ability can give him considerable protection.

In the world where the Kingdom of Lugnica is located, there are many people with mind-reading abilities, such as Reinhard, or Echidna, who can read memories.

The reason why Reinhard in the video didn’t use his mind-reading ability on himself was because the other party trusted him.

And if the other party in the real world has watched the video, it seems that Reinhard would never trust him, and it would be even more difficult for Ayanokouji to deceive him.

Echidna is bound by a contract with himself and cannot change his memories. Although Echidna is still in the spiritual world, if she also masters the information in the video, it won’t be easy to be fooled by himself.

Even if she is in the spiritual world and hasn’t seen the video, once the other party reads his memories, Echidna will definitely know all his information.

So this mystery ability is very important to Ayanokouji, and it’s a very good ability.

After obtaining the appropriate ability, he nodded in satisfaction, then prepared to draw the second skill.

He caught another particle of light.

[Obtain the ultimate skill Imagine Breaker. Your right palm can eliminate all abilities, including Divine Protection, powers, magic, etc]
