Chapter 402
Aisi Desi: "I delight in the thrill of battling equals—crushing my opponents... No, just thinking about it makes me ecstatic."
Aisi Desi: "Antique coffee shop server."
Wait a moment—I'll finish watching, then come back and see if we can talk properly."
Fight."
Don't worry too much! I won't go all out."
Antique coffee shop server: "......"
Mom, help me!"
This society isn't just full of otaku—it seems there are psychopaths too."
After hesitating, Wudao Dong Xiang made up her mind and downloaded the memory copy of Tokyo Ghoul uploaded by Su Han."
She didn't watch it in order, but instead randomly fast-forwarded through the memory copy."
Soon, she saw herself wearing a mask, fighting fiercely against Shinzo Mutsuki."
Wudao Dong Xiang: "......"
Wait... had she misread something? The immersive quality of the memory copy allowed Wudao Dong Xiang to discern, through countless details, that the person in the scene was herself."
Yet she had no memory whatsoever of her battle with the investigator in this memory copy."
"What's going on..."
Wudao Dong Xiang fell silent for a long time, then reviewed it again—this time, she no longer skimmed casually, but watched with intense seriousness."
She fast-forwarded all the way to the end, then frowned and reset the memory copy to the beginning, watching it carefully from start to finish."
As she watched, a flicker of understanding arose in Wudao Dong Xiang's heart."
What this recounted was not the past."
It was the future."
"...... So, that guy—the head of the Weigong Society—knew about me and everyone in the antique coffee shop because he could see the future?"
Wudao Dong Xiang's lips trembled."
She felt her scalp prickle."
As a Level Ghoul, Wudao Dong Xiang was far from weak among ghouls."
She wasn't the strongest, but she was far stronger than most."
Moreover, due to the brutal worldview of the Tokyo Ghoul world, she had endured many battles since childhood."
Though she had her own understanding of power, she had never imagined that such a thing as foresight—predicting the future—could exist in this world."
This was almost inconceivable... No—it could even be called a miracle."
Wudao Dong Xiang suddenly realized something, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead."
"Could it be... that everything these guys just said was true?"
The one who called himself Death God really was Death God. The one who called himself Godslayer truly killed a god. The one who called himself Demon King truly was the legendary Demon King."
What kind of place have I joined?! "Does that mean gods truly exist in this world...? But if gods do exist, why don't they descend upon humanity? Why don't they stop the tragedy of the ghouls...?"
Wudao Dong Xiang's body trembled slightly, her mindset unsteady."
Ghouls possess human form, human thoughts, human emotions—yet must feed on humans to survive."
It is too tragic."
It was not that Wudao Dong Xiang was pessimistic by nature, but that living in this world forced her to be."
She could not help but be pessimistic."
The longer she lived in this world, the more desperate she became.
At this moment, Wudao Dong Xiang suddenly realized: she might find the answer to the question that had haunted her all along—in this society."
What is the connection between humans and ghouls? What is the truth of this world?"
