Chapter 140: Making this decision is out of consideration of principles

Misaki City.

"Good morning, Mrs. Sakai, sorry to bother you."

Sakai Chigusa, who was cooking breakfast in the kitchen, turned her head and looked suspiciously, but didn't find anything, as if what she just heard was an illusion.

A ghostly figure walked into the study openly from the stairs. That was originally the exclusive room of the master of this house, Sakai Kantaro, but because he was stationed abroad most of the time, there was usually no one inside.

But today was an exception.

Sakai Yuji, male.

15 years old, Misaki High School first-year student.

As a human, he lived a quite ordinary daily life... until that moment. Suddenly, an ugly monster like a "fat baby" attacked the peaceful street, and everything began to burn fiercely.

The sky turned red, the stilled people began to burn, from the size of a campfire at first, soon turning into the volume of a bonfire, then from a torch to candlelight, constantly shrinking, and shrinking......

Then, it was himself...

——Mystes.

This was the address for him by the mysterious girl who suddenly appeared in front of him at the critical moment, killed the monster, and restored everything. The certain and complex look in her eyes, he still remembers clearly to this day.

Then came the explanation of the world's underlying logic settings that made people dizzy, such as "Crimson World denizen," "Flame Haze Warrior," "Free Method," "Fuzetsu," "Rinze," etc.

Sakai Yuji seemed to have contracted Flame Haze · Reality Shock Syndrome, unable to accept the truth, returned home in a daze, and forcibly convinced himself that all this was just a dream.

"It's a pity, you... are already dead."

Together with the girl from yesterday, a tall black-haired figure grabbed him, who was just about to go to school, into the study, and then said this sentence.

When this sentence fell, Sakai Yuji felt an inexplicable palpitation, like a hibernating squirrel, dormant snakes, insects, ants, and beasts suddenly waking up in a disaster, trembling uncontrollably under the instinct, but even running away was impossible.

Not good, not good, not good! Feeling this sentence is like some death declaration, will it cause me to see the little star next to the Big Dipper in the next second?

Cold sweat, even more wild flow.

"Although it is a Mystes, it is also just a torch."

The girl wearing a windbreaker, who looked dashing and handsome, added somewhat unhappily.

"How is it possible, am I not standing here well?" The boy with a vague ominous premonition in his heart couldn't help but refute.

Jia Ji saw Sakai Yuji's stupid and cute appearance of being half-understanding, not even understanding that he had been swallowed of "existence" by the "denizen" from the "Crimson World" and its subordinate "Rinze," slapped his forehead, turned his head and said to the girl beside him: "Hey, Shana, it's not that I'm saying, you just did his ideological work like this? How can we proceed to the next step of the plan?"

The girl turned her face away unnaturally, didn't speak, pretending to be an expert.

The current time point is that Shana followed the trail of the Crimson World denizen and unknowingly came to Misaki City according to the original plot, and happened to save Sakai Yuji.

But because of knowing the future in advance, she didn't know what measures to take to treat this boy.

Should she continue her mission as a Flame Haze Warrior, inherit the title of "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Slayer," or simply push for the emergence of the "World of Nothingness" that could end the "mission of Flame Haze Warriors"?

Even if she is a Flame Haze Warrior, Shana is just a girl whose age is barely enough for high school, and has never even gone to school. Facing the values she once shaped, her constant pursuit, and the correct and beautiful grand ending, she had a contradiction.

Informed of the future by Jia Ji, she of course knew what choice was correct, but at this moment, the choice of the direction of fate was in her hands, and a heavy pressure almost made her unable to breathe.

Struggle is unavoidable.

Around the competition for the treasure "Midnight Lost Child" in Sakai Yuji's body, countless battles will occur in this Misaki City, just like a huge gravity field attracting all Flame Haze and Crimson World denizens in the world. This city under her feet will surely become the most vast vortex of struggle so far!

Perhaps if she said one more wrong word today, it would lead to the death of a Flame Haze Warrior and the swallowing of the existence of one hundred humans in the future. Under such circumstances, how could she dare to act rashly?

If Nagato Yuki and Yukari Yakumo from the group took action personally, perhaps there would be a way to make everyone put down hatred and suspicion, and create a new world without sacrificing anyone?

The girl's distress is this—she might have been infected by someone's idea—wanting to achieve a perfect ending.

But unfortunately, the only ones who can give her advice at the current stage are the End-of-Century Idea King, the Iron Mask Man.

Knowing everything, Jia Ji's expression was also quite wonderful. Besides sighing that the power of the plot was really powerful, even after he intervened, it still brought Shana to Sakai U2's side, he could only say that being a Flame Haze Warrior is really fucking troublesome and helpless.

Fortunately, he is not a Flame Haze Warrior, otherwise it would be shameful.

"What?! The treasure in this Mystes' body is actually that 【Midnight Lost Child】?"

Alastor of Mars was so excited that he floated.

"Making a fuss, Midnight Lost Child is Midnight Lost Child, not some lost child..."

"After saying so much, so who exactly are you..." Sakai Yuji was still confused. This mysterious person didn't seem to be a Flame Haze Warrior either, but he seemed to know him very well and was exceptionally familiar.

"Shut up, don't ask this question!" Shana hurriedly stopped him, but it was too late. She seemed to see Jia Ji, who was triggered by the keyword, about to—

"Hahahaha, I am the true successor of Super Beidou Shenquan, Uncle Jagi!!"

Shana moved two steps to the side, pretending not to know this guy, but after two seconds couldn't help but ask:

"So what exactly should be done?"

"Don't worry, isn't this the purpose of you finding me? Facing this U2 boy, out of consideration of principles, I made a decision..."

Jia Ji pointed a finger at Sakai Yuji, solemn:

"Anyway, it's all going to be burned. Torch is ember, ember is torch! And you, who possess 'Midnight Lost Child,' can be approximately equal to an undead person. I'll prepare a small leather shield set for you immediately..."

He moved his gaze to Sakai Yuji, with powerful pressure and temptation, and stretched out a big hand toward him.

"So... boy, do you link the fire?"
