I turned around suddenly and looked at [Lucky] who made the sound, and saw [Lucky] sigh and say:
"The list of survivors you mentioned back then was true, right? That means Despair was also on the list of the dead, right? That's why you made a deal with Despair."
"Yes, [Despair] is also the [Super High School Level] that I used to trade in order to change the fate of the scenario."
"You're probably the only outsider visiting the academy. When the academy was first renovated, Despair was also one of our companions, right?"
"Well, there are sixteen of you, the super high school level students, who decided to settle down in the academy, probably hoping to wait until the incident has died down. However, you didn't expect that one of your companions was the mastermind behind this."
"[Despair] is inside Monokuma, right?"
"Probably. Since he hasn't moved yet, I can't really say for sure."
[Lucky] nodded, understanding the current situation.
Seeing that Lucky had no more questions to ask, Zhi Xing asked back:
"Have you figured out a solution? Tell me about it, let me see if it's feasible. There are things I might not be able to remember to share with you, and I might miss some conditions. Wouldn't that mean fate is unchangeable?"
"No, it's enough that you know the script here."
[Lucky] glanced at [Detective], seemed to want to say something but stopped himself, then closed his eyes and ran towards the battlefield without looking back.
"Hey! What are you doing!"
Although he knew that time was running out and that the deceased could actually die at any time, Zhi Xing, who had not received an answer, watched Lucky suddenly leave and followed closely.
Although Lucky's physique is the second weakest among the protagonists, he is a talented person who often brings bad luck upon himself, so his physical fitness is almost the same as that of Zhixing, who cannot be strengthened due to Reset, which makes up for the age gap between the two.
Coupled with the time difference caused by the other party running ahead, Zhixing was unable to close the distance for a conversation.
After all, the closer you are to the battlefield ahead, the louder the noises will be. How can you communicate if you don't get close?
The others who had not figured out a solution just stood there, looking at [Lucky] and [Onlooker] from afar, and plunged into the crowd of the black and white bear army.
"Separated...separated! Is this the fate of survival?"
[Fortune Teller] looked at the black and white bear masked people approaching [Lucky] in surprise, and suddenly started to attack the people around him, ignoring [Lucky] and the [Onlooker] who followed him, and passed through the defense line built by [Fighter] and rushed towards the secret treasure black and white bear at the school gate.
"Look carefully, the real change in their behavior was caused by the intervention of the 'Bystander' at the center."
After hearing what the [Young Master] said, they re-examined the situation and realized that it was indeed the [Onlookers] who were at the center, causing the surrounding soldiers to rebel.
At this moment, because the distance between the defense line and the school gate was not too long, [Luck] had already arrived at the feet of the unmoved secret treasure black and white bear.
Standing at the dividing line before leaving the campus, Lucky took a breath and then called out to Monokuma above:
"Monokuma! Are you listening? If you can, then let's begin! The final class judge! The murderous class judge of [Despair]!"
Zhi Xing also rushed to Lucky's side and heard the other party's call. He subconsciously looked behind him at the Fighter who had a brief rest after the Witch's Kiss cleared the field, and wondered:
"You should have seen that everyone else is still alive. Even the most desperate [Programmer] didn't act out of despair. Are you going to send the [Fighter] to his death?"
"No, there's another person."
"Who? [Gambling Master]?"
"Besides us sixteen [Super High School Level] students, there is another person."
Zhi Xing frowned, but before he could figure out who it was, he heard a response from the black and white bear above his head:
"Puff, puff, puff~ So, you still want to hold a class trial, right? But the announcement of the body's discovery hasn't even started yet, and why would I want to hold a class trial now?"
"Even if you could take action now, you would only be able to kill those who are destined to die. Naturally, based on future developments, you will also be destined to die."
"But what if I stake my life on it?"
"As before, with everyone's lives except the murderer at stake, I, the [Detective], and the [Bystander] will hold a class hearing regarding the death of Hope's Peak Academy's principal, Hitoshi Kirikiri, which is known to the three of us, the [Detective], and the [Bystander]!!!"
Chapter 375: The strategist is half the winner by joining the game, but the bystander
Although I don't remember the name of Jin Kirikiri, I still know that he is the father of [Detective] Kirikiri Kyoko.
It was used as the opening of the game, and was executed without any protection by being launched into the air at high speed and then dropped back down at high speed by a rocket.
This served as a prelude to the introduction of the Monokuma doll.
But in the game, the principal is just a wrong option used to mislead them in their reasoning, and his body is located on the second floor of the dormitory, hidden in the secret room of the principal's lounge.
I shouldn't have been away from them for too long. Could it be that the [Detective] has cracked the code of the secret room without the help of [Luck]?
But even if we enter the secret room, there are no other clues except knowing that the other party died at the hands of the mastermind.
Can such a choice really break the deadlock?
Zhi Xing narrowed his eyes. Although the path taken by [Luck] was indeed unexpected and actually brought things back to the original script, it was really impossible to complete this task...?
Zhi Xing closed his eyes, trying to hide his thoughts from [Despair], wanting to let them decide their own fate.
But how could [despair] allow the paper bank, which was so close at hand, to watch so calmly?
"Pfft, pfft, hahahahahahahaha, I thought you could come up with some interesting suggestions, but I didn't expect that after all this, you still think I'm going to play this game where no one will die?"
I haven't heard the person, only the voice. Although it is such a negotiation occasion, Lucky still said a little too calmly:
"Indeed, this kind of school-level judgment is an overwhelming disadvantage. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't choose to accept it."
"But you're different now. I know you could have controlled the body of this black and white bear a long time ago. It's just that doing so doesn't suit your wishes, so you just watch."
Zhixing squinted his eyes and looked at [Lucky], wondering why he seemed to know [Despair]'s nature too well. Obviously, [Despair] must have disguised his daily life very well, so in the original plot, when [Lucky] found out that he didn't understand [Despair]'s thinking, he found it difficult to accept and scary.
"Is that so... You've noticed... Are you still coming here alone to die? Or... Since I can probably finish you off with just a little movement... Aren't you afraid of me? You're so hopelessly unforced."
The Secret Treasure Black and White Bear's body moved, and at a speed far beyond that of its huge body, it slammed its head in front of [Lucky].
The strong wind pressure awakened the two people's instinctive fear of giants and their survival instinct.
But even though [Lucky] looked a little ugly, he still did not choose to retreat.
As for [Paper Line], after a gust of wind pressure, the situation suddenly became calm.
The performance of the two was also reflected in the eyes of the secret treasure black and white bear, which was so huge that it could see the whole picture without turning its eyes.
"This is... a deal! In the name of [Super High School Level Luck], I'm making a deal with you [Super High School Level Despair]."
When Zhixing heard the word "lucky", he couldn't help but open his eyes, and his hand unconsciously touched his heart.
Is this really the case? If external pressure reaches a certain level, it will trigger the [Witch's Barrier]. Is it only through self-examination that one can develop the will to resist?
Even someone as unobservant as Zhixing could see the trembling of Lucky's body, but the opponent's will chose to resist in the face of the absolute power gap.
Sure enough, [Lucky], as another impossible person, can awaken his personality mask on his own without even needing me to guide his inner desires? If so, then at least the third of the three wishes is believable.
Black and White Bear looked at the secret treasure for a few seconds, and suddenly his eyes lost their luster.
"E...Enoshima-san!"
[Super High School Level Hot Girl], [Super High School Level Analyst], [Super High School Level Despair], Enoshima Junko, who was given these three titles, fell to the ground from behind Monokuma's huge head.
Feeling the movement, Zhixing looked at Enoshima Junko who jumped from a place higher than a 4-story building without doing a tactical roll but was not affected at all, and sighed for her own weakness.
As expected, he was able to withstand several executions until he was finally killed by the hydraulic press. He was even able to retain an intact arm when he was in the center area. I believe he also has talents such as [Body Transformation], so he can transform himself into a body that can become a model, and has the physical qualities of a soldier.
It seems that even with a setting close to reality, some exaggerated expressions can lead to situations far beyond those of ordinary people.
Zhixing was immersed in his own thoughts and had already begun planning his next direction in the world, but how could he avoid being targeted at this time?
"Hey, Mr. Kyubey, [Bystander]!"
Zhi Xing raised his head and looked at [Lucky], only to find that [Despair] was standing with [Lucky] and looking at him at the same time.
"what happened?"
"Enoshima... No, [Despair] she agreed to hold this class trial, but..."
"But since this is a deal, I naturally have to make some demands. And my demands are: you, as a [Super High School Level Spectator], will also join them and decide the winner with the school refereeing."
"I?"
Zhixing was a little surprised. After all, at this moment, he should have been watching the immutable rules of fate take effect, watching how [Luck] reversed the impossible situation and defeated [Despair], and then find Shenzu Deliu, and leave this world after meeting the conditions.
"Why would I want one too? I wouldn't bet my life on it."
As the world is very narrow, in order to prevent danger, even those with the ability to [travel through time] dare not take the risk of choosing worlds where their power seems to be possible. Zhixing has proved time and time again that even in the world of one's choice, danger will still come unpredictably.
The witch's kiss in "Puella Magi Madoka Magica", the murderer's shooting in "Detective Conan", the perfect familiar in "Kenichi", the wise face-off in "P5", and the despair that comes to the door in "Dangan".
To be honest, at the current distance, it is a very dangerous situation for Zhixing. However, because Zhixing's previous accumulated emotions were interrupted, it may take a lot of time to regain his thoughts, so he can only choose to follow [Lucky].
First, to see how to resolve the situation, and second, to use the pressure of Monokuma's death and the uncertainty of whether the [Witch's Barrier] can react to accumulate despair, and be ready to create a cognitive existence again to serve as Plan B.
[Despair] smiled with a crescent moon on his face and looked at [Luck] who proposed the plan.
"Actually... if we follow the school rules Monokuma issued at the beginning, the only people who would be called upon to judge this meeting would be everyone present at the time."
"But because of your involvement, Monokuma has modified the school rules to include killing someone from outside the school, someone who is not a student, as a requirement for graduation."
"Just now, [Despair] told me about this matter, and said that if you don't get involved, then the former principal, Kirikiri Jin, who was the victim, can't be considered the murderer. Otherwise, we will first use the same past sins to conduct school-level judgment on [Bosozoku], [Gambler], and [Baseball Player]. Then, [Murderer], [Soldier], [Nobleman] and others will be judged before it is her turn."
Zhi Xing looked back and forth between the two of them, frowning and saying:
"Are you speaking for the enemy? Are you going to use your talents to convince me?"
"Are you...really [Lucky] Naegi Makoto?"
Zhixing felt something was wrong, so he immediately took a few steps back and put some distance between them.
"Huh? What does that mean? I am who I am."
[Lucky] felt a little embarrassed. After all, he did seem to be speaking for [Despair] at this moment, but this was also to get clues from [Bystander]. After all, although [Lucky] had figured out the method of forcing the class referee, he still had no idea how to prove the murder. After all, the matter of the body in the principal's room was something [Lucky] told the principal when he asked the [Detective] when he came out.
"There are talented people who want to disguise themselves as others, and there's been a significant gap in time between you and me, so I can no longer confirm that you are you."
Zhixing said this while backing away while paying attention to the two people in front of him.
After all, [Lucky]'s behavior has far exceeded the original actions in the original plot. Whether it is [Lucky] Komaeda, [Hope] Kamuzura Izuru or [Trickster], they may replace [Lucky] at a time they don't know without being discovered by the classmates around them.
Just as Zhixing was thinking this and trying to retreat, the voice of [Despair] still clearly reached his ears.
"You see, the more people know, the more timid they become. After all, we only have one life. How can we make rash decisions when we know the risks are so high?"
Zhi Xing paused for a moment, as if he had created enough distance, so he turned his eyes as if to check the road conditions behind him, then quickly retracted his gaze and turned his eyes again.
"Father, like son."
"Even if you're not a chess genius, as long as you know the rules, anyone can express their opinion on the weaker side of a game between two opponents, even if the answer they give is not the optimal one."
"As someone who has acquired the talent of 'Observer,' Kyubey is probably better than anyone at planning before taking action, rather than taking a gamble when faced with uncertainty."
"Although you think you have a good chance of winning this class trial, the more knowledgeable [bystanders] are not on your side. Do you know what this means?"
"The hopeless disadvantage means that in the opponent's judgment, your victory is impossible. That's why the [Onlooker] is looking for an excuse to escape."
Just as [Despair] was talking non-stop, the two groups of people who were originally watching from a distance had already joined forces and arrived near the paper shop.
Maybe it’s because of the presence of the main characters that I have a certain confidence.
Zhi Xing then retorted:
"What kind of provocation is that? It looks like he's saying 'lucky', but it just sounds like he's trying to provoke me."
"You just want to increase your despair. Because I have the script, I want to make the despair last a little longer while you wait for your execution."
"Although you didn't abandon everything in despair, all your despair was within the limits of your own strength. The fact that you didn't directly challenge the Future Agency is proof of that."
"So, you're well aware that this time, despite the class trial targeting Jin Kirikiri as the victim, the corresponding clues have long been lost. Even with talents like [Luck], [Detective], [Fan Writer], [Literary Girl], and [Fortune Teller] that might help in the search, you still feel like you're a sure winner, and that's why you want me to join in."
“But unfortunately, I will not...”
"Destiny can be changed~"
[Despair] easily grasped the most important thing for Zhi Xing in this world, besides the use of power, development suggestions and training of witches.
"If you participate in this school-level refereeing, there are basically only three possible outcomes."
"My defeat, everyone else's escape alive."
“Those who are not destined to die will die, and those who are destined to die will survive.”
"No choice, just go back to being drained of energy by the black and white bears until you can no longer get up. Of course, this outcome is likely the key to the survival of these powerless people."
"Yes, you want to use their experiments to obtain results that can be used to protect someone somewhere. Then doing nothing is your only way to ensure that fate remains the same."
"What's wrong? You keep saying you want to change other people's fates, and you've tortured yourself to death over it. Now, the opportunity to rewrite their fate is right before your eyes, as long as you participate. Are you going to refuse it like it's fate?"
