Whose personality mask's power comes from the heroic spirit?

"Rai, Raikou, will I ever be able to see her again... in the future?" Expressing her meaning with some difficulty, Sakura Futaba uneasily increased the strength of rubbing her fingers.

Although they are two completely different people, Futaba Sakura can still vaguely see the figure of "mother" in her.

It was not the 'mother' who cursed her with a ferocious face, but the mother who would hold her hand and ask her what she wanted to eat tonight with a warm smile on her face when she was alive.

Although she can't replace her mother, Sakura Futaba still wants to stay with her for a while longer. Perhaps this will allow her to recall more of her mother's expression when she loved her.

"Sorry, I don't know either." Taiyi touched the black mask on the lower half of his face with his hand, "I can only say that if we are destined to be together, maybe it is possible."

Well, if the Hades miasma strikes again.

Having said that, the passage to the underworld is closed, the miasma has disappeared, and Mordred probably won't be able to hold on for much longer, right?

I hope I can have the chance to thank her face to face and say goodbye to her.

Although the girl had only returned to her own consciousness, she could still communicate.

Even when she transforms into Aix, you can still see the projection of her consciousness.

But, people are always a bit pretentious.

"If..." Sakura Futaba's eyes quickly drifted over Taichi several times, "If there is a next time... can you, can you let her stay with me a little longer?"

"I, I can still continue to use hacking methods... to do things for you."

"Ah." Taiyi didn't say much, but promised her with a serious expression, "If Raikou has a second chance to obtain a physical body, I will definitely give you a chance to meet and communicate again."

"..." After mustering up her courage and hesitating for a long time, the girl finally spoke again, "Thank you, thank you..."

Then the room fell into silence again.

Taiyi had no intention of breaking the silence.

At the very least, before Sakura Futaba overcomes that psychological barrier, letting her be alone will be more beneficial to her body and mind.

As for telling her the real cause of death of her mother, Isshiki Wakaba... that would have to wait for some time, until she had a certain understanding of 'cognitive science' and knew about the existence of the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts', and had the determination to 'step out'.

Otherwise, before she can even stand up, a more cruel world will be exposed before her eyes, which will probably completely crush her last bit of longing for reality.

And the best person to tell her the truth at that time would be Minamoto no Raikou.

This person has already held a certain position in her heart.

Otherwise, if other people told her, she would have to use some of her energy to fight against her own desire to escape.

Or find new ways to escape.

For Sakura Futaba, who has not yet made up her mind, escape is the only way.

……

"Sakura sister, this phone is with you for now." Taichi left Iwanaga Kotoko's phone on the table and explained to Sakura Futaba, "Once the caller ID on the phone shows 'Taichi', you will immediately start deleting the video."

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s connected or not.”

"...Do you, do you believe me so much?" Sakura Futaba looked at Taichi uneasily and asked back.

"I believe in Raikou who trusts you." Taichi responded with a slight smile.

After saying this, Taiyi left the private room.

[“Master, you are lying.” Minamoto no Raikou complained unhappily, “You even left a cat in the private room to supervise that kid Futaba.”

"After all, Sakura-sister's heart is too fragile right now. Rather than worrying about her, I am more worried about whether she can muster up the courage when the time comes." Taichi responded with his mind.]

It’s still the same place as before.

When Taichi arrived, he saw Kamaitachi squatting at Mordred's feet, with its little paws pointing in Taichi's direction.

Inside the barrier, after seeing Taiyi, everyone who had been hiding their true feelings breathed a sigh of relief.

Takamaki An and Yuigahama Yui even raised their hands and waved at Taichi.

Taiyi passed through the barrier and came in front of everyone.

"I have already discussed it with someone. As soon as this barrier disappears, that person will immediately start deleting all the surveillance videos within the barrier."

"Our traces will be completely wiped out."

"After that, you will follow Iwanaga Kotoko. When she releases the spirit in her form, you will take off your clothes and sneak in."

"You've even thought of this." Yukinoshita Yukino said with emotion, "However, there are only a few people in our family's photo album, will anything be exposed?"

"I've already thought of an excuse." Iwanaga Kotoko swung her cane and said, "All I have to do is say that the last free form card happened to be filled with your spirits."

"However, what I want to know more is, how do we know when this sealing barrier will disappear?" Iwanaga Kotoko asked with a blink of her eyes.

Chapter 66 Sakura Futaba: Damn, what a waste of feelings!

Iwanaga Kotoko's attempt ultimately ended in failure.

"Ultraman's barrier can automatically convert sunlight to annihilate the aliens, so why is it impossible for it to stop functioning and automatically dissipate after the aliens are annihilated?"

This argument is well-founded.

Although Iwanaga Kotoko still expressed doubts about this.

But she is such a good person, with a smile on her face, as if saying, 'I'm convinced, but I reserve the right to doubt.'

It shows both the attitude of "I already suspect you" and "I am just suspicious and have not made a conclusion yet, so I won't tell anyone else."

Taiyi was grateful for this.

As for the fact that Aix was connected to himself... Taichi never thought that he could hide it from Iwanaga Kotoko from the beginning.

After all, monsters can see Ultraman's light, which has been shown in various special effects... Well, in fact, as long as they are not from Earth, most non-human creatures can more or less perceive the other party's identity when they see a human body.

Although X is now in a deep sleep, he was still quite active when he first met Iwanaga Kotoko and her little monsters.

As a result, just as X had set up a sealing barrier, he no longer had that lively look when he saw Taichi again. Even if the monsters were fools and couldn't tell the difference, as long as Iwanaga Kotoko heard the monsters' narration, she could still guess the connection between Taichi and X.

Otherwise, do you really think that Iwanaga Kotoko, the god of wisdom, is suffering from brain hypoxia and is willing to be taken away for a whole night?

She was just being nice and trying to build a relationship of mutual trust with Taiyi.

By the way, test Taiyi's bottom line.

After all, she, the god of wisdom, has some prestige in the monster circle, but the prestige is not enough to support her to do more things.

It was just a test result, and Iwanaga Kotoko was very satisfied.

Taiyi has no conflict of position with her, although his words and actions are more or less tainted by scandals, but scandals are good.

Red Dot doesn't have to worry that Taiyi will bypass her and cooperate with that group of people who have no bottom line.

"By the way, I left your phone with that person. As soon as the barrier here disappears, I will contact him and ask him to take action." Taiyi took out his old-fashioned phone that didn't even have a camera function, shook it and explained.

"...Mr. Naruto, you shouldn't have rummaged through the contents of my phone, right?" Kotoko Iwanaga's face suddenly darkened, and she looked at Taichi with a sinister smile and asked.

"...I wouldn't do such a tasteless thing." Taiyi curled his lips and replied, "But would that person... Sorry, maybe I should have said hello in advance."

"Ah, it's okay." Iwanaga Kotoko waved her hand and replied, "Anyway, that phone is just a new one I bought on my own initiative at a mobile phone store. There is no privacy in it."

Even the phone cards are current.

As for the money... once the ban is lifted, she will come to pay the money.

"That's good." Taiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, she is a big client, and Taiyi is still waiting to ask her to take over the batch of gold and jewelry in his hands.

He pressed the hang-up button secretly, and the barrier behind him flashed a few times before suddenly falling apart.

"The barrier! It's disappeared!" Yukinoshita Yukino exclaimed in shock as the first person to discover it.

Taiyi pretended to be stunned and immediately pressed the emergency call button.

Several kilometers away, in a private room of an Internet cafe, Sakura Futaba immediately took action after seeing the caller ID.

Ten seconds of competition... Huh? No competing forces?

Sakura Futaba's finger movements gradually slowed down.

A dozen seconds later, after all the recordings within the barrier within the past twenty hours were completely deleted, Sakura Futaba still did not find any electronic forces trying to infiltrate.

"What the hell!" Sakura Futaba held her head and laid on the table with a long sigh, "With this organization's efficiency, I've already done my job, and there's still no response! This broken country is doomed!"

"The barrier has disappeared...which means the visitors have also been annihilated, right?" Standing outside an alley, Kotoko Iwanaga glanced at the city behind her, which seemed to have become more lively under the sunlight, then turned to Taichi and asked.

"Well, the annihilation should be complete." Taichi had an expression that said 'I guess so'.

In fact, several hours ago, all the alien visitors were completely wiped out by the sunlight converted by the barrier.

Even the visitors hiding underground or in places where there was no sunlight were turned into smoke by the sunlight stored in the barrier's automatic reaction setting.

All I can say is that there are things that Taiyi couldn't think of, but there is nothing that Aix couldn't foresee in advance.

……

"Let's say goodbye here for now." Mordred, who was about to lose his physical body, clenched his empty fist with some regret, then looked up at everyone, "Although I can't continue to be by your side to protect you, I still hope that everyone can have smooth sailing and be safe in the days to come."

"I've never heard of such a farewell word." Yuigahama Yui wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes sentimentally, without a smile on her face.

"Thank you very much for your care and protection during this time." Yukinoshita Yukino bowed deeply to Mordred, "Mordred-san."

"I will miss you, Mordred." Xin Tiao Qian waved to Mordred.

She was the only one whose face showed no sadness.

After all, she was an insider and knew that if there was anything she wanted to say to Mordred, she could just go find Taiyi and convey it.

It's a bit regrettable that we can't meet face to face.

But as for separation, she has experienced this kind of thing many times.

She has been trained to be able to face it with a calm attitude.

"...If there is a chance...be my mask next time." Takamaki An stretched out her hand and tried to touch Mordred's shoulder, but she touched nothing.

"mask……"

Iwanaga Kotoko, who seemed to have inadvertently learned some additional information, glanced at Takamaki An, then looked at Mordred seriously.

"Although I have a lot of questions to ask, I'm not the kind of detective who will get to the bottom of it, so I'll just be frank and thank you here."

"Your Highness Mordred, I hope you can enjoy every moment of the future with ease."

"Ha - relief...ah." Mordred's body turned into a shadow, became gradually transparent, and finally disappeared.

[“Hey, Taichi, if you have time in the future, tell me about your father’s story.” Mordred’s voice sounded in the meeting in his mind, “Or my story in other world lines and the Holy Grail War. I’m a little curious.”

"Ah, I appear here in this form... Your Highness Mordred, am I also appearing in this form? But I can't see my own body." Minamoto no Raikou's voice sounded somewhat surprised.

"Huh? Of course not. Here, you are just a mask. If you want to return to my appearance, you can only wait for that guy to wake up."]

Chapter 67 This is the normal timeline

"...I, I will go with them." Outside the Internet cafe, Sakura Futaba, who was covered by Taichi, walked out with her head lowered tremblingly. She did not look up at the people around her, and her hands kept pushing her bangs to her eyes on both sides, trying her best to avoid making contact with anyone.

"As you can see now, Sakura-sister is unable to communicate normally with others, so you should try not to talk to her. You just need to tell her what you should pay attention to."

"Especially you, Yuigahama!" Taichi glared at Yuigahama Yui who was eager to try.

This kid doesn't know how to keep distance, and Taichi is worried that she'll get close to Sakura Futaba before she can poke a hole in her eggshell to let in some air, causing her to reinforce the eggshell instead.
