Zhi Xing took a confused look at it and immediately recognized it as the latest contracted familiar, an elite familiar that inherited the witch's memory.
If nothing unexpected happens, its level will be able to form a barrier independently and gradually grow into a witch.
"Hmm? Wait? Becoming a witch... and having the same memories as a witch..."
Zhi Xing seemed to have connected something, as if he had caught a fleeting inspiration, and murmured:
"The Witch's Kiss of Amnesia...The familiar that grew into a witch...The magic power that remains in the soul...The replacement of the personality mask...Akechi who lost his memory...My...memories ZZZZZ"
Chapter 268: Blue Memories
(There are bad people in this world, I know this very well, so I have to be strong and protect Madoka and Hitomi)
Zhixing looked at Sayaka Miki in front of him from the first-person perspective, and felt very complicated.
It’s not that Zhixing has any excessive feelings for Lanmao.
But it was the lucid dream that Zhi Xing had been longing for, which seemed to appear out of nowhere.
Zhixing still vaguely remembered that he seemed to have just encountered the villain who was most likely to cause an accident in P5.
Then, because I had escaped a disaster, I felt like a heavy burden had been lifted from my heart, and mental fatigue could not help but surge out.
Then, in the paper-line memories, there seemed to be a magical girl with blue hair and a two-dimensional style, but whose face could not be seen clearly, appeared in front of him. She took his hand and sat on a very old-fashioned chair, and then pressed the remote control on the table with a smile on her face.
Immediately afterwards, noise appeared on a large desktop TV across the table, and then the picture gradually became clear.
As the picture became clearer, the paper line was immersed in the content played on TV as if it were there.
However, this content is not the "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" imagined by the author, but the personal experience of the magical girl Sayaka.
It was this sense of incongruity that made Zhixing suddenly realize that he was in a dream.
Because Zhixing had a premonition that she would end up becoming a witch, but he couldn't change the channel or interfere, nor could he pause or quit.
So, Zhixing relived his story in the Madoka Magica world from Lanmao's perspective, and the interference from Homura when he, the butterfly, was not around.
Zhi Xing watched it very quickly because the scenes shown on TV seemed to have been edited, ignoring various daily routines and only showing the relationship between the witch and the wish-maker.
As this lucid dream progressed, Zhi Xing's attention shifted away from Lan Mao. He thought absentmindedly:
It seems that the Principle of the Circle was finally realized without my participation.
Aren’t these bits of memories from before she became a witch the very means by which the Law of the Circle helps the girl fulfill her wish?
The only reason that could allow the Law of the Circle to appear was the little bear.
Am I finally the only one left?
What reason should I have to force myself to get involved in the dangerous world next?
Can I really travel to another world when I might not be able to come back at any time?
Why... do I have this power?
Zhixing felt confused about the future. This confusion seemed to be reflected in his body's instincts. Zhixing's eyes were filled with tears, and his vision became blurred.
Until the surrounding scene came to the moment when Blue Hair saw Kamijou.
Surrounded by three magical girls, with the sorrow within reach, he wavered in his heart and a black magic power rose from the Soul Gem.
But in Zhi Xing's hazy vision, the one that gathered the magic power was not the mermaid witch, but a doll.
Looking at the witch's image that was so blurred that only the outline was left, and looking at the clear outline of her legs under her feet.
Zhi Xing's eyes seemed to begin to focus, and his vision gradually became clear.
Then he saw a puppet familiar sitting beside him, watching over him.
Zhixing sat up in a daze, and after a moment of confusion, he realized that he had fallen asleep after entering the witch's barrier. This familiar, probably because there were no onlookers to watch over it, followed its feeling and came to him to protect him... right?
Looking at the obvious image of the familiar, Zhixing confirmed his recent experiences, then looked at the date on his phone, which was out of touch with the real time for an unknown period of time. He was sure in his heart that he did not have any inexplicable blackouts, but had simply fallen asleep.
But the strange feeling of the lucid dream just now still made Zhixing feel a little scared.
But thankfully, the familiar is still there, and the witch is also alive as expected. Does that mean the Law of the Circle...still doesn't involve the past? Or perhaps it can't reach this unknown world?
“Snap! Snap! Snap!…”
Zhi Xing slapped his head vigorously, trying to dispel the feeling of relief he had just felt. Then, with the intention of changing the subject, he said to the familiar in front of him:
"I clearly didn't take any notes or set an alarm to create any psychological cue, so how did I suddenly start lucid dreaming? Did you do anything?"
The familiar looked at the paper line in confusion, then looked at his own hands and feet, not understanding what the paper line meant.
"Hmm? This is... well, it seems the familiar is a split off from the witch, so even if they have the same memories, they will be different due to their own different personalities."
"But mine is Witch's Kiss, a direct subordinate of the Witch, so it's likely that I'll still be a little bear with the same personality."
The familiar hesitated for a few seconds, as if searching its memory, then pointed at itself and said innocently:
"Are you talking about me? I was born the same way, right?"
Zhi Xing blinked, realizing that the familiar seemed to be right, and changed the subject again, asking:
"Did you have that dream just now?"
What? What is a dream?
Zhixing stood up and looked at the cognitive familiar in front of him, which he could confirm was constructed by the witch's magic. He also confirmed in his heart that the shadow bear that he thought was the master of the hall was indeed just a cognitive bear in his hall, but with higher authority.
Because it is the same memory, the other person is just looking through it instead of treating it as his own memory and answering it as soon as it is asked.
Because this memory is most likely not possessed by the witch herself, but is set up by herself based on past experiences learned from the witch.
Therefore, there will not be enough rational words produced because of memory.
Then it was understandable that he forced this familiar to make himself fall into an illusion. Apart from the fact that Zhixing couldn't figure out how to use the Witch's Kiss in the Witch's barrier, he did find an explanation for himself.
For this situation that cannot be verified, there is an explanation that is acceptable to the paper industry.
So Zhixing stood up and looked at the familiar in front of him who was still trying to understand what he meant, and shook his head helplessly.
After taking a look at the inside of the barrier, Zhixing did not look at the witch again to confirm whether she was alive or not. Instead, he closed his eyes and chanted a sentence that was almost like a spell to the witch's kiss on his neck.
Suddenly, the witch's barrier disappeared as promised, and Zhi Xing appeared inside the yard of an unknown house.
Because he realized that the place he came out from seemed wrong, Zhixing planned to chant the spell again to return to the witch's barrier, at least he had to get out of this yard first.
Just at this moment, Zhixing's No. 3 phone vibrated continuously, as if a large amount of information suddenly came in, drawing Zhixing's attention to the phone, or to the Phantom Thieves.
When he opened his phone, Zhixing thought something unexpected had happened again.
But what caught my eye was the repeated number 1, which appeared one after another as if the screen was refreshed.
"Did the authorities find my phone?"
Zhihang was wondering, but soon after the 1 message appeared, a phone call came in and was automatically connected after two rings.
"Mr. Sakai Yuuji, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. How about you guys? Did you get into any danger when you were lost?"
When Zhixing heard the synthesized voice coming from the other side, he couldn't help but confirm that it was Sakura Futaba on the other side, but why was she suddenly so anxious to contact him?
The Witch's Kiss should have been removed.
This is what the paper company thought, but the other party obviously didn't think so.
"My business... that... by the way, the ordinary people you accidentally dragged into the temple earlier are now safely receiving treatment in the hospital."
Hearing this, Zhi Xing remembered that he had slept in the witch's barrier, and according to the flow rate of the witch's barrier, which was much faster than the real world...
The paper line couldn't help but pull down the updated date.
"April 22 Jin Yao Day (Friday) 14:48"
Zhixing's mouth twitched. If he guessed correctly, he should have completed the notice letter process in advance and defeated Kamoshida's palace on the 20th.
The paper industry's impression was that it was just an all-nighter and a day.
But Zhixing was still caught off guard by the fact that sleeping in the witch's barrier would waste so much time.
"It's already this late. What happened?"
"I've found a way to awaken your power!"
Futaba hesitated for a while, but finally said it to Zhixing.
"Really? Don't you have an awakening mask too?"
"Anyway, where are you now? Let's meet up."
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
Hearing this, Zhixing just nodded, and then looked at the people who were attracted by the movement in his yard.
Zhixing greeted them with an embarrassed smile and returned to the witch's barrier.
Then, Zhixing looked at the location information loaded into his mobile phone and began to race and sneak into the barrier.
Fortunately, the witch didn't move too fast, and the Velvet Room was not far from Shigenjaya where Sakura's family lived.
So it took Zhixing less than an hour to arrive at the hotel where he was staying.
Then he sneaked up the stairs to the floor where his room was, and then returned to the guest room he rented.
Zhixing was a little surprised to see that his things were still intact in the room, and then he quickly packed up his luggage.
After all, if nothing unexpected happens, Zhixing will have to spend the rest of his time here avoiding official pursuit.
This also allows the paper industry to go to other places and get more people to get the app, so the paper industry has no complaints about this.
Put the computer back into the box and other miscellaneous items back into the backpack.
Zhihang looked at the other suitcase that was empty because of the sale of gold, took it with him, and the next moment, disappeared in the hotel, as if there was no trace of his presence.
Soon, the paper merchants came to Sakura's house with large and small bags, and walked into the second floor uninvited. They stopped in front of Sakura Futaba's door and knocked on it.
As if she had been prepared, Futaba quietly opened her door after the knock, as if welcoming the arrival of the paper shop.
Perhaps his mood had changed, and Zhixing seemed to be back to the time when he first came to find her with his luggage, and he couldn't help but continue with the things he had abandoned halfway:
"Hello? I'm a player, and I'm... right in front of you."
Futaba rolled her eyes, not caring about the situation. Even if it was a new mod, she had already confirmed the Paper Bank's position. Futaba knew that the other party would not harm her, so she asked directly:
"You have the power of Puella Magi Madoka Magica, right?"
"Yes, you read that right, I do have that power."
After knowing that this world's cognition of Madoka Magica can affect the cognitive world, thereby strengthening the spread of the Witch's Kiss, Zhixing knew that he would most likely not be able to keep this secret.
Just like Mona, although a cat, can turn into a cat bus, it is obviously based on the cognition of "My Neighbor Totoro".
When there are specific abilities and the original story exists in the world, it is inevitable to deduce the truth.
The Phantom Thieves will also improve their strength by understanding the information of their own personality masks.
"The method I'm going to talk about requires this power of yours to awaken!"
Zhi Xing looked at Futaba strangely.
If the witch could really be used to activate her mask directly, then she should have thought of it long ago, but now one, she has not obtained the personality mask yet, second, she does not know enough about cognitive science, and third, the popularity of Madoka here is not high, so the discussion will not be strong.
In this situation, Zhixing was not optimistic about Futaba's proposal for witch power, but he still chose to listen and asked:
"Tell me, what should we do?"
Futaba was as excited as a gamer who had written a game guide, and handed the drawings she had compiled from the room to Zhihang.
"Sorry, I don't know the words here."
Futaba paused for a moment, then reluctantly recounted the plan she had come up with:
"The Witch's Barrier itself is also a temple, because desperate desire is also desire, and there are no other temples within the temple. Only by transforming into a persona can one become like the guys in the Phantom Thieves."
"I have seen you block my palace from the wall through the barrier before."
"Then, as long as we make good use of this, we can block your palace from entering it."
When Zhi Xing heard this, he covered his face and did not tell Futaba that he could enter his own palace.
Instead, he asked curiously:
"So what if I entered the temple? And will this situation be of any help to awakening the personality mask?"
"Hehe, since the witch's power is in you, she won't exclude you. So the only way to make the barrier appear is to let others possess the witch's power to form a barrier and block your palace from entering."
