Anime & Comic Spirit: Newly Awakened System, Joined Group Chat

Her cheek rested quietly against Bai Hao's chest.

She felt a warmth and peace she had never experienced before, and slowly closed her eyes.

The two first met on a ship.

She didn't know why, but the moment she sensed Bai Hao's presence,

A desire to get closer to Bai Hao rose from the bottom of her heart.

She spent the entire morning thinking about this.

But I still couldn't figure it out.

During lunch, she deliberately chose a seat close to Bai Hao.

That longing grew stronger.

Her original intention was to get to know Bai Hao slowly first, and then find an opportunity to come to his side later to explore this issue.

But her heart seemed impatient, urging her to come find Bai Hao.

The moment she found Bai Hao, her longing grew even stronger.

When she saw Shana next to Bai Hao, she suddenly understood.

This longing seems to originate from more than just her inner self.

It originates more from her "sea of ​​consciousness".

That is,

It was her spiritual power that yearned for Bai Hao!

She didn't know why this was happening, but she chose to believe in herself.

And then, she made the right bet!

Bai Hao not only didn't blame her, but also took the initiative to help her treat her illness!

Ignoring Ayanokouji Kiyotaka standing to the side, Sakayanagi Arisu directly dived into her sea of ​​consciousness.

The vast sea of ​​consciousness was filled with azure spiritual energy.

When I was a child,

Her mental power continued to expand at a visible rate.

The immense spiritual power was squeezing her frail human body.

This made her increasingly thin and weak.

Arisu Sakayanagi's father had once contacted a champion-level Psychic Pokémon.

However, it was also helpless regarding Sakayanagi Arisu's mental strength problem.

They could only set up a few [mental energy blockades] to barely limit the expansion of her mental energy.

Such a "lockdown" is merely a temporary measure to quench thirst.

Even the slightest leak of aura is like a volcanic eruption.

This caused her to experience an even more intense, needle-like pain.

Sakayanagi Arisu's suffering lasted for eighteen years.

But just now,

Just as Bai Hao was merging a ball of white light into her body,

She's back to normal!

The mental blockade in her mind disappeared.

The ever-expanding azure sea of ​​consciousness returned to calm.

This extremely unfamiliar sense of health and comfort captivated Sakayanagi Arisu.

She delved into the sea of ​​consciousness, constantly exploring within it.

'So this is what the depths of my consciousness are like!'

Generally speaking, all superpowered individuals have entered the depths of their own consciousness.

But Sakayanagi Arisu never came.

Because there is a [mental power blockade] in her sea of ​​consciousness.

Today was her first time truly venturing into the depths of her consciousness, experiencing its "scenery."

In the vast and boundless sea of ​​consciousness,

Sakayanagi Arisu looked around curiously.

Beneath my feet lies a vast, azure ocean of spiritual energy.

The sky is made up of clusters of floating memory bubbles.

She vaguely sensed a strange fluctuation coming from the deepest part of her consciousness.

This was her own sea of ​​consciousness, and Sakayanagi Arisu wasn't worried about any danger.

She followed her senses and moved forward.

In the center of the ocean of spiritual energy, she saw a [lonely island].

On the azure island, there grows a strange tree.

The tree trunk is a crystal with a blue-pink gradient.

The tree crown is a pink cocoon.

'What's this? ’

Sakayanagi Arisu noticed something was wrong.

Even though she had never entered her own sea of ​​consciousness, she had heard from others what the sea of ​​consciousness of a normal superhuman was like.

The isolated island, the tree, and the cocoon before us...

This is definitely not normal!

Sakayanagi Arisu circled the cocoon several times, but still couldn't figure it out.

'Never mind, let's go out first.'

'Perhaps Bai Hao knows what this is.'

The girl took one last look at the motionless pink cocoon before quickly exiting her consciousness.

…………

"If I said I just happened to be passing by,"

"Do you believe it?"

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji remained expressionless and spoke in a flat tone.

Bai Hao smiled slightly.

"If you let me feel your emotions, I might believe it."

Ayanokouji's eyes flickered slightly.

"Just feeling emotions?"

"Ah."

Bai Hao did not investigate the male's inner desires.

Previously, I could only enter the other person's consciousness during the interrogation of memories.

Although Kiyotaka Ayanokouji was a bit strange, he hadn't shown anything unusual yet.

Bai Hao only had some doubts and did not label him as a "villain".

"Please help yourself."

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji nodded in acknowledgment.

Bai Hao didn't stand on ceremony and directly released his mental energy to envelop it.

Indifferent, calm, casual, rational, shrewd, lazy, realistic, cold-blooded, aloof, ruthless, cautious...

But deep down, he was filled with confusion.

Bai Hao raised an eyebrow and withdrew his senses.

"Are you confused?"

"..."

"Tell me, what is your mission on the island?"

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka glanced at Shiro.

Bai Hao smiled slightly.

"I did not delve into your consciousness, nor did I observe your memories."
