Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

"Your role is to bring Amamiya Ren to the lowest level of the Impression Space. As for the palace, it's just an opportunity to increase your popularity."

Looking at Mona who was in self-doubt, Zhixing shook his head, knowing that it had not yet had continuous dreams to understand its own identity, so it could not accept this fact for a while.

Just when Zhixing wanted to speak again to comfort her.

Gao Juan An seemed to have thought of something and asked:

"Is the assassin in Kamoshida's castle the product of Kamoshida's understanding of Yuuji?"

"Yes, didn't you know this a long time ago?"

"So where does its experience come from? Kamoshida probably doesn't know you, right?"

Zhihang nodded and said:

"Logically, it's something I don't understand. I've come into contact with that shadow, so I know it's very mysterious in Kamoshida's cognition, so I understand a little bit of the knowledge in the Impression Space."

Following up on this topic, Takamaki An asked again:

"So, if you become famous, is it possible that the Mr. Yuuji Sakai that the public knows will appear?"

Chapter 247: Stripping off the vest?

In response to Takamaki An's question, Kazuyuki recalled Takamaki An in the Kamoshida Hall and Akechi Goro in the Shido Justice Hall, and rejected the idea that the Personality Mask user could not be recognized, refuting it with facts:

"Even if your Phantom Thieves become very popular in the future, there won't be a Cognitive Phantom Thieves. Instead, the power will be concentrated on you, right? The so-called cognitive existence is just a role-playing in the hall."

"Look, when you awakened your personas earlier, those role-playing soldiers shed the perceptions imposed by the temple, allowing them to unleash their true strength in their own image."

"Perhaps the person pretending to be Takamaki An beside Kamoshida at the time was actually the male demon sitting on the toilet."

Although it was just a guess, Long Si felt a little uneasy when he heard this possibility, and immediately interrupted:

"Stop talking. I can't even eat! It's disgusting."

Zhixing shrugged indifferently. In Zhixing's impression, he really didn't notice that the shadow Gao Juanxing had any chance to appear. He was probably killed at some point.

"Everyone... every being... living in this world is connected to other people..."

"So everyone will slowly leave their own shadow in the space of impression."

"It's just that most people's desires aren't strong, so they don't become wandering shadows."

Mona seemed to have heard everyone's conversation, but also seemed to be trying to convince herself, and began to explain the situation of the impression space.

"This shadow, recognized by others and then acknowledged by oneself, can connect with the person. Therefore, after destroying this shadow, the corresponding being will lose all desires and become a useless person."

"Yes, every shadow is related to the real existence, so it is born from the space of impressions. Then we also..."

Mona seemed to have found a possibility that she was still human, and her expression began to gradually become excited, but Zhixing interrupted and said a key word:

"The dead and the gods."

Mona's train of thought was interrupted, and she looked at Zhixing, who had spoken, in confusion. Zhixing also faced Mona and explained:

"After you take care of Kamoshida's temple, you can take a break and then help me take care of my partner's temple, the one listening on the phone over there."

"Although I haven't seen it yet, according to what I know about the future, there is a deceased mother in her temple. This cognized mother is well integrated with the elements and personality of her belief in existence, so even if it is contrary to reality, she still exists."

"Excuse me, if I heard correctly, it should be inside the palace. In terms of role-playing, it can exist there, right?"

Amamiya Ren raised her hand to interrupt Zhixing's introduction, and Zhixing nodded in agreement, then said:

"I used her as an example to illustrate that cognitive shadows don't require a corresponding object in reality to appear."

"And this thing, which has no self-connection and is born solely through the cognition of others, is the archangel known from religious allusions. The one in the Velvet Room, disguised as an old man but actually a false god capable of destroying the city, and his subordinates."

"It doesn't have a temple. Or rather, the impression space formed by everyone's cognition is the temple formed by the distorted space separated from reality."

"Are we...in the temple of God? This is...unbelievable."

Gao Juanxing looked at the surrounding scenes and tables and chairs, and no matter how she looked at them, she could not tell that they were the cognitive products of the palace. Just like after entering the palace, one could only rely on the exaggerated painting style to distinguish between the two worlds. The simple five senses could not distinguish the reality of the world at all.

"Really? It's just that the school's palace is already so big. If it were a city's palace..."

“Is there any evidence to support this claim?”

Unlike Ryuji's shock, Amamiya Ren gave Zhixing the feeling that she was not an ordinary high school student who was easily startled, but an adult who had begun to mature and think more after experiencing the beatings of society.

For someone who is still obsessed with the anime at the age of working in a paper shop, becoming an adult is not about being pragmatic, focusing on interests, or reading more news and focusing on facts.

Instead, when doing something, you can think about one more level of results, two more levels of results, or even three more levels of results.

Only in this way can you be considered thoughtful. Even if the thinking is not comprehensive, it is more mature than those who speak without thinking and act instinctively.

Of course, the time cannot be too long, otherwise you will become a person like Zhixing.

"I was in the area covered by Kamoshida's palace and sensed the presence of the distorted space from my best friend, An Takamaki."

"And your personality mask is basically equivalent to a temple-level shadow. Therefore, you who can transform and gain power in other people's temples are proof that temples can exist within temples."

"Besides, it's possible to connect directly to the Impression Space in reality, right?"

"Mortona, who can travel through space with just her physical body, and Amamiya Ren, who is cared for by the Velvet Room and can see the gate of the passage in reality."

"?"

"?"

As the paper company called out their names, the two witnesses exchanged glances before retorting:

"Except in dreams, I remain as you saw me when I first entered the Velvet Room from the Hall. I have not seen you since."

"Although I'm not familiar with the theory you're talking about, the actual impression is that the space is underground and can only be reached through the subway station. On the ground, you can only enter the hall. It doesn't feel like there's a space enclosing the other."

Now it was Zhixing's turn to be stunned. He scratched his head awkwardly and muttered:

"Maybe we were rushed, so we didn't meet Ren Amamiya. That's understandable, but Mona's feeling...is this place different from Witch Night?"

Zhixing looked down at the ground, then raised his head and looked at the sky.

“Is the height a problem?”

Seeing that Zhixing's theory seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with reality, Gao Juanxing immediately changed the subject and said:

"Hey, what will our future be like? You know? It's what our significant other will be like in a few years."

Zhi Xing raised his head, blinked, and looked at Amamiya Ren. Then, with a hint of amusement, he explained their respective futures to everyone:

"Honestly, I only know about your future a year from now. After all, after destroying the disaster as a guest of the Velvet Room, Amamiya Ren lost her power and completed her observation period, so she returned. However, even though it was only a year, the changes that took place in you were greater than those that others would undergo in decades."

"Where should I begin? Hmm... Let's start with Amamiya Ren's nine concubines!"

"?!"

Putting aside the topic, we started to go to the box where Zhihang and others were staying.

Far away on the other side, the lonely partner was looking at information on the Internet.

"I see, Witch Night, is this really the source of his witch power?"

Sakura Futaba looked at Witch's Night that she had searched on the computer, and then saw several very familiar characters at a glance.

Moving her eyes to the title, Futaba immediately understood.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica

"It seems to be the same character that guy uses as his desktop wallpaper."

"Is he really a game geek who's also a part-time anime geek?"

Futaba took a quick look at the general plot of the anime, then downloaded it and started searching for another word she heard from Zhixing.

The Crimson World Apostle and Yuuji Sakai.

As Futaba expected, her search soon yielded accurate results.

Shakugan no Shana

Look at these two things that can actually be searched.

Futaba first ruled out the possibility that this was an anime adapted from reality, because if the power system was the same, then it would be impossible to adapt it into an animation, especially since these two clearly represent two different powers.

Then, Futaba thought of what Jixing had done. Everything he did was done according to a certain purpose, so she probably ruled out the middle school character that was inconsistent with Jixing's appearance.

At this point, Futaba Sakura deduced the truth about Zhixing.

"Hiss, this is a classic move from a multi-play player. Looks like he's played a lot of mods."

"Personal abilities, identity and background, an alien ability system that is different from reality, and... a box of gold secret manual?"

"Maybe there are other things out there. Tsk, I hope there aren't any 18+ mods."

"I may be a beautiful girl, but I'm only a high school student, probably."

Futaba tilted her head, remembering what Zhixing had asked her to do the first time.

Stop Kamoshida from illegally infringing on Suzui Shiho, inform others, set traps to control the situation, etc.

The illegal infringement that was downplayed was clearly seen by Futaba through the No. 3 mobile phone left in Kamoshida's office.

"If this game is meant for adults! Ah, no wonder it's a high school student who saves the world, and it's not a junior high student who gains superpowers. So that's how it is!"

Futaba felt that her plan of self-preservation was about to be negated by her own thoughts, and she could not help but hug the pillow tightly and fell headfirst onto it.

It wasn't until the sound of the download being completed came from the computer that Futaba raised her head. She listened to the topic of the future still being discussed on the other side of the paper line, and even heard her name being included in Amamiya Ren's Nine Ships Jump. She became more certain of the fact that this world was just a game.

And considering that Amamiya Ren is the protagonist, it is likely that this fan work used the original character to process personal desires, so mods were added arbitrarily to destroy the original balance of the battle.

What type of fan

Futaba thought of the nine or more women who would be involved in this accident, then looked at herself, then at Takamaki An, who was a model, and swallowed her saliva, avoiding the answer to this question as if to escape.

"First, let me see what mod the player has loaded."

20XX年4月19日火曜日（周二）18:44

Although Zhixing has only watched the game plot video once, he is not familiar with many plots, especially the personal plots that increase favorability. At least he can't remember them out of thin air when encountering corresponding events. In addition, Zhixing's storytelling skills are still too poor, so he only explained some general ideas.

After everyone had dinner, it was coming to an end.

"That's it. Mona completed her mission and disappeared. And because Amamiya Ren was to serve as a witness to prove Shido Zhengyi's crimes, she was made a scapegoat. As a result, she missed Christmas and the invitations to individual dates with each girl."

“But thanks to the efforts of the community, life in the juvenile correctional facility is very easy.”

"Finally, by sheer coincidence, I was released on February 2.13th. Then, on Valentine's Day, February 2.14th, because I didn't face my feelings, I refused everyone's date invitations."

"At this time, I don't know if the female companions of the Phantom Thieves all have loved ones, so Ryuji, who is single, came to find Amamiya Ren to complain."

"In the end, they couldn't wait for Amamiya Ren, so the people who came from different times and places to look for her discovered that there seemed to be another person in the room."

"So on the morning of February 2.15th, all the girls came to the coffee shop and asked Amamiya Ren for an explanation."

"Of course, the moment he saw the others, he probably already had the explanation. He just wanted Amamiya Ren to admit who he wanted."

"As for Amamiya Ren's final choice... I can only say that now that I'm here, I can't judge Amamiya Ren's choice after being influenced by me, right?"

The story told by the paper line has ended, but it is obvious that the accident has just begun.

Amamiya Ren, who was originally very good at grasping the key points and even asked several times about the possible choices she might make during Zhixing's narration, had already fallen silent under the gradually cold gazes of her companions.

If I had to say it was a lie, it was quite long, and it was linked to the enemies and partners that he and others were about to face. Even the app responded to the names of these people.

After confirming with mona that not every famous person will have a temple.

Amamiya Ren became even more silent.

Of course, apart from Amamiya Ren, the other two were in a worse situation.

Especially Mona, who fell in love with Ms. An at first sight, and Takamaki An, one of the heroines involved.

Compared to the two of them, Long Si was directly envious and jealous.

Seeing that they wanted to say something but seemed hesitant, Zhixing put his phone back into his pocket with a hint of regret and said to everyone:

"I'm going to pay the bill. You can stay as long as you want. I won't bother you."

Zhihang stood up, closed the door, and listened for a while, but heard no movement. He couldn't help but sigh, and then went to the front desk to check out.

After paying the bill, he passed by the door of the box again and heard a lot of noise coming from inside. He couldn't help but smile. Then he didn't greet everyone in the box, but gave a tip to the service staff on the side and asked them to go in after the noise was over. Then he left the box room irresponsibly.

Looking at the sky that had just begun to darken, Zhixing took out his No. 3 phone, clicked on the normal map navigation, and started typing:

"How do I get to the TV station?"

Chapter 248: App Usage and Development Plan

Depart from the well-connected subway station.
