It's normal to get a kaleidoscope as a first deposit of six yuan, right?

The fact that the fox demon sister didn't abandon her shows that there are still people who care about her!

After Zhixue entered the bedroom, she closed the door and then made the bed. She then set up a small barrier around the bed to isolate her senses from hearing and sight.

Picking up a mirror, Zhixue looked at the three tomoe in her eyes and was somewhat surprised and nervous.

Although I had practiced many times in the training field, I still felt very nervous when I went into the real gunfight.

"No, I need to buy a few Sharingan eyes as spares for Izanagi."

After searching through the system's shop for a short while, Zhi Xue bought three three-tomoe Sharingan for 2980 million taels of silver to use for Izanagi.

Because it's a special version of the system, this thing doesn't need to be directly embedded in the arm like Danzo's. It just needs to be placed next to the body, and after triggering the specified conditions, it will automatically rewrite reality and return to three seconds ago.

Zhi Xue placed the three Sharingan eyes in an opaque glass bottle, then put it inside her pillow, and called the little girl in.

Snapped…

Looking at Zhixue's tightly closed door, the little girl saw that there were only the two of them left in such a narrow space, and her moist little face turned a little red.

Since she needs to remove that shiny thing from her chest, shouldn't she take off her clothes? But that would be too embarrassing...

While the young girl was still thinking about random things, Zhi Xue took a deep breath, formed a hand seal, and a faint golden light emanated from the surrounding barrier, sealing off the space.

It all hinges on this moment; I hope it works out on the first try…

Chapter 205, The Journey Should End

"Fox Demon Sister... is there anything... is there for Zhixue to do?"

Sitting on the edge of the bed, the little girl clutched the hem of her skirt with her tiny hands and said somewhat flusteredly.

"No special preparation is needed. Just listen to me, get a good night's sleep, and when you wake up... you'll be back to normal..."

Zhi Xue ruffled the little girl's hair, then took off the little girl's two little shoes and made her sit on the bed.

Although the little girl didn't understand what Zhixue was saying, she still gave her a sweet smile.

Xiaoxue is very well-behaved. As long as we don't abandon her, we'll do anything you ask.

"Well... goodnight, fox spirit sister. No, that's not right, it should be good morning now. But can I whisper something to you while I'm sleeping?"

Zhi Xue was taken aback by the little girl's words. This was a sealed space, and no sound could possibly escape. Why couldn't she just say it? However, seeing the little girl's expectant expression, Zhi Xue still sat down by the bed.

"So, what does Xiaoxue want to talk to the fox demon sister about?"

Looking at Zhixue so close to her, the little girl blushed. Then, looking into Zhixue's clear eyes, she slowly moved closer and kissed her cheek to Zhixue's surprise.

"Thank you... Fox Demon Sister. Although I don't know what you really look like, you must be even more beautiful than me. To me, Fox Demon Sister is like the protagonist in a storybook. It all feels like a dream. There's a girl who looks exactly like me, but she's stronger and smarter than me, and she even dares to fight against bad guys. If I had half the power of Fox Demon Sister, my life would probably be much happier..."

Seeing the tears that involuntarily streamed down the little girl's cheeks, Zhixue's memories seemed to be stirred, but she quickly suppressed them.

The key is to take the magic box first and not let extraneous thoughts distract your mind.

Zhi Xue took a deep breath, suppressing the emotional turmoil in her heart. She took out a tissue from her hand and wiped away the hot tears from the corners of the little girl's eyes. She rubbed the little girl's face and said, "Okay, don't cry. Xiao Xue also has her own strengths. In life, you have to see things clearly and not care about other people's opinions. Even if you don't have power, you can still live happily."

"Hmm... Xiaoxue said some strange things just now." The little girl wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes.

She's such an idiot! How could anyone like a little girl who cries all the time?

After Zhixue comforted the little girl, the formal process of retrieving the magic box officially began.

After following Zhi Xue's instructions, the little girl obediently lay flat on the bed. The three-tomoe pattern reflected in Zhi Xue's pupils slowly began to rotate, and the little girl felt a strong drowsiness. Her little hands, which were holding Zhi Xue's clothes, slowly fell down.

"Fox spirit sister... see you when you wake up..."

After watching the little girl drift off to sleep, Zhi Xue's pupil power did not stop, but slowly rotated together to form a kaleidoscope pattern.

"I'm sorry... Xiaoxue, the fox demon sister lied to you. I'm afraid you won't be able to remember our memories." Zhixue gently stroked the young girl's tender cheek, a trace of sadness flashing in her eyes.

Rather than watching her leave with my own eyes, it would be better to seal her memory away directly, at least that way there would be no more pain in my heart.

Zhi Xue delved into the young girl's mind, finding fragments of beautiful memories floating there like fireflies in the depths of the ocean of memories.

Through the exchange of consciousness, Zhi Xue was able to clearly perceive the little girl's joy, sadness, and loss, as well as a vague and indescribable emotion. However, Zhi Xue quickly withdrew her perception and used the powerful eye power of the Mangekyou Sharingan to seal these memories in a cage like a chip, sealing them away forever.

Having detached herself from the young girl's consciousness, Zhixue returned to the real world. Seeing the girl's forehead covered in sweat and her expression as if she were having a nightmare, she used a wisp of chakra to soothe her.

"Do you really have to be so ruthless? You are her, and she is you. Do you really want to seal away your memories forever?"

Because of the shared chakra with Zhixue, the little Nine-Tails couldn't help but speak up.

Faced with the Nine-Tailed Fox's question, Zhixue shook her head regretfully.

“You don’t understand. I am her, but I am not her. This memory may bring her happiness, but losing happiness after gaining it is far more painful than never having it in the first place.”

Hearing Zhixue's answer, Nine-Tails scratched his head in confusion.

The human world is truly complex.

After Nine-Tails stopped asking questions, Zhixue began her next task.

One of the Mangekyou Sharingan evolved into the Rinnegan, while the other Mangekyou Sharingan emitted a faint white light after closing.

Everything in the world before them, including everything outside the barrier, became clear, and Zhi Xue's expression turned serious as she looked at the magic box emitting a pale white light from the little girl's heart.

"This journey... should come to an end."

……

Sasuke, who was waiting in the outer room, frowned as he watched the room remain silent.

An hour has passed. Will Sister Zhixue really be able to remove the magic box from in front of her heart? If she fails, will reality change?

Sasuke, somewhat worried about the situation inside, stood up from his chair, preparing to go in and take a look. But when he reached the door, Zhixue came out from inside, and Sasuke's pupils contracted as he saw the blood still dripping from her arm.

"Is this... a failure?"

"No, no, the magic box has been retrieved, and the transfer plan was a success. As for the blood you saw, it was just to clear my head." Zhi Xue rolled up her sleeves and headed towards the bathroom, while Sasuke walked into the room and breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the young girl, who was still sound asleep under the covers.

It seems the magic box has really been retrieved. Sister Zhixue is truly amazing.

In the bathroom... Zhi Xue washed the bloodstains off her white arms, then looked in the mirror in front of her.

The mirror reflected the eerie purple light of the Rinnegan, adding a touch of coldness and sorrow to Zhixue's originally innocent and adorable aura.

Why do I feel this emptiness inside? It's such a strange feeling...

Chapter 206, Traveling Through Time

It was nearing noon in Konoha, but the autumn sun wasn't as scorching as in summer; instead, it brought a touch of vitality to the desolate village.

On the Hokage Rock, Sasuke, dressed in black robes, and Shizuka stood there.

What did you do with that box?

"Of course, it was thrown into another dimension. Do you want this dangerous thing?"

Sasuke shook his head and breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Zhixue's response.

"Is that so? Well then, in that case, the mission can be considered complete. Do you need to travel back together?"

Zhi Xue shook her head when she heard Sasuke's invitation.

She and Erzhuzi were from different times, too different. Moreover, during that time period in Loulan, Xie should still be waiting for her outside. She should have gone back from there, as he hated trouble the most.

After being rejected by Zhixue, Sasuke took out the Otsutsuki clan's treasure, Li.

"In that case, I'll have to take Urashiki back to report first, but I'll need your help with this."

Zhi Xue nodded as she looked at the turtle Sasuke had taken out. After helping Sasuke activate the turtle's permissions and location, the two took one last look at Konoha, which was in the midst of war, and then left.

Uchiha clan territory…

Xiao Zhixue, who had fallen asleep in bed, woke up from under the covers. She looked around in a daze, then put on her shoes, drew back the curtains, and looked at the bright sunshine outside. She felt a tightness in her chest for some reason, as if something was missing.

"Why does something feel off..." The young girl clutched her chest and rubbed it, then walked out of the room. For some reason, she wandered through every corner of the entire house, just like her current mood.

There's nothing there, it's like something's missing.

"Could it be because Nisan just celebrated his birthday and left?" The little girl patted her cheeks as she looked at the birthday decorations in the corner.

No, it must be because I slept in late over the weekend and got all groggy. I need to find something to do...

The young girl returned to the living room, intending to go to her bedroom to review the theoretical knowledge she had learned at school. However, in just a short while, she suddenly noticed two gift boxes on the table.

"what is this?"

The little girl ran over and picked up the two flat gift boxes, which had a note written on them.

Gift for Zhixue's birthday

—A friend in my dreams.

Outside the window, Zhi Xue, who was hiding in the tree, smiled as she watched the little girl happily accept the two gift boxes.

"I almost forgot about this. Now that I've made up for it, I should go do something else. System, please locate Danzo's position for me."

Ding, received.

the next day…

On the road between Amegakure and Konoha, Danzo, who was returning to Konoha, was walking in the rainy night when a strange premonition made him stop in his tracks.

Looking at the dimly lit forest path around them, Danzo summoned several Root members to explore the surrounding area. However, not long after, a man in black dragged two Root members' corpses out of the nearby woods.

Looking at the bloodstains on the ground, and the roots surrounding Danzo in a circle protecting him in the center, Danzo narrowed his eyes as he looked at the hostile Shiki.

"Are you from Konoha, Amegakure, or... Akatsuki?"

Danzo considered himself quite unlucky. He originally wanted to go to the Land of Rain to cooperate with Hanzo of the Salamander, but on the way, he was dealing with Akatsuki's affairs, which caused the cooperation to fail and cost him a lot of Root. He had already encountered some unpleasant things on the way there, but he didn't expect to run into another one on the way back.

"At this point... it seems Nagato has already been killed." After hearing Danzo mention Akatsuki, Shiyuki understood. Although she was a member of New Akatsuki, avenging their former leader Yahiko shouldn't be a problem, right?

Although we can't kill this guy completely because of the different timeframes, we can still keep him lying down for half a year.

After throwing down the two corpses, Zhixue looked towards Danzo's location. The pair of eerie purple eyes beneath the cloak sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.

Danzo felt a chill run down his spine when he saw Shiseido's faintly visible Rinnegan.

He remembered that this thing seemed to be the eye of that red-haired kid. The purple dragon he released had killed many of his roots, and even the demigod Hanzo the Salamander had to temporarily avoid its sharp edge in his own territory.

"How...how could you have eyes like these!?"

"Take a guess?" Zhi Xue raised her hand, and a blackish-purple light burst forth from it.
