In the anime, people are in everyday Tokyo, but they are playing the reincarnation game

"There's only one piece left. You can't eat more if you want. Don't ask me for more."

"You're quite generous."

Listening to the conversation between Asagiri and Crazy Mita, Iwanaga Kotoko couldn't help but wonder.

"Don't you have a body structure similar to a robot? Why do you still need to eat?"

Crazy Mita snorted.

"Even though I don't need to eat to keep my body functioning, I can still taste food. The Twinkies are delicious and I enjoy them."

"I see."

Iwanaga Kotoko nodded when she heard this, with the corners of her lips rising.

"In that case, it's easy to handle."

...........

A quarter of an hour later.

"This...what is this..."

Crazy Mita put a piece of chocolate cake on the plastic fork into her mouth, chewed it gently and tasted it, with surprise in her eyes.

"In your world... there's actually a snack this delicious... even better than sandwich cookies!?"

Seeing Crazy Mita's completely shocked expression and hearing the uncontrollable admiration and surprise in the other party's voice, Iwanaga Kotoko held the porcelain tea tray in one hand and the teacup on it with the other hand, gently blew on the steaming black tea, and smiled like a lady from a noble family.

"Just eat as much as you like. If it's not enough, I'll call the hotel and ask them to send more. This is my reward to thank you for your help."

"Humph."

Crazy Mita put another small piece of cake into his mouth before replying.

"I'm just his persona. If you want to reward someone, it should be him."

"You mean, to reward Asagiri?"

Kotoko Iwanaga glanced at Asagiri who was sitting on the sofa on the other side, smiled and shook her head, speaking in a matter-of-fact tone.

"He and I have such a close relationship that I don't need any formalities like rewards. Besides... my way of rewarding him isn't to give him a cake... Well... but it's also nice to have him treat me like a cake and forcefully possess and eat me~"

"Heh, love-brained, why don't you eat?"

Hearing Crazy Mita's question, Iwanaga Kotoko smiled sweetly and replied first.

"I've eaten."

Then she looked at Asagiri who was sitting there and added meaningfully.

"Besides, I've drunk the milk."

Crazy Mita frowned slightly when she heard this, not knowing what the milk that Iwanaga Kotoko was talking about was. Don't get her wrong, she knew what milk was. After all, in that love game world, although there were no such delicious pastries, there was still milk.

She just vaguely felt that the "milk" the other party was talking about was probably not the same milk as the milk she knew.

After finishing a whole piece of chocolate cake, Crazy Mita glanced at the tray on the table and said in a calm tone.

"Okay, I'm full, I'm going back."

Iwanaga Kotoko was a little surprised when she heard this.

"Are we going back now? There's still a lot of cake left."

"I don't want to eat anymore. Even if the food is delicious, I'll feel sick if I eat too much."

Crazy Mita said this first, then looked at Asagiri who was sitting there, pursed his lips, and pretended to be nonchalant.

"Tell them to come out and eat the remaining cakes one by one."

Upon hearing this, Asagiri's face turned serious, and he spoke slowly in a rare serious tone.

"Even if you still want to eat, even if you once called those Mita puppets, but when you come across delicious pastries, you still choose to share, Hargita... you guy..."

Crazy Mita was speechless: "Can you please stop calling me weird nicknames? Anyway, that's it. I'm leaving."

Watching Crazy Mita's figure disappear, Iwanaga Kotoko looked at Asagiri and said meaningfully.

"Compared to the last time we met, she seems a little different. In my impression, a complete lunatic like her who enjoys killing wouldn't think of leaving any pastries for the other Mitas."

"After all, her situation is different now."

Asagiri shrugged and said softly with a smile.

"Her crazy and twisted personality is due to the world she lives in. Her thinking is completely different from those of the Mitas. Those Mitas don't care how this world came into being. Since it was created, it is the real world."

"As for Crazy Mita, she can't accept that she's just a failure in the game world. Didn't she say it before? She wants to kill us and become a player in this death game."

"Although she hasn't become a player yet, she has gained the ability to leave the Mita world in another way. And by following me, she often encounters exciting and interesting battles. She has obtained what she desires, and her personality has naturally changed."

Hearing Asagiri's words, Iwanaga Kotoko raised the corners of her lips, supported her fair cheek with one hand, and stared at him with interest.

"I didn't expect you to put yourself in Crazy Mita's shoes and think about why she became like this. It seems that although you usually appear to be very tough and ruthless, you do have a kind and gentle side."

"Kind and gentle? Don't make me laugh."

Asagiri shook his head and said in a calm tone.

"It's only because she's lucky enough to be my Persona that I can ensure she won't betray me or hurt those Mita again. Otherwise, I wouldn't care what drove her so twisted and crazy. I'd just give her a Human Shura Iron Fist and send her off with pleasure."

"Um..."

Kotoko Iwanaga had a thoughtful expression on her face and muttered to herself.

"So, in this situation, even though you understand your enemy's feelings, you don't feel the slightest bit of sympathy or compassion, nor do you hesitate to act..."

Having said that, Iwanaga Kotoko stood up and ran to Asagiri, throwing herself into his arms again and saying with a smile.

"I know you better, and I feel so happy~"

.........

Next, Asagiri summoned the Mitas in the world one by one and let them taste the exquisite pastries of this world.

When Hat Mita came out, he first kissed Asagiri and then showed off a lot.

When the kind-hearted Mita came out, she was rather reserved. She only ate a piece of cake and then kissed Asagiri.

The cute Mita finished eating the cake with joy, then let Asagiri touch her head and acted coquettishly to her heart's content.

When short-haired Mita came out, she said that she didn't like sweets very much, so she just tasted the sandwich in this world and then kissed Asagiri.

When Mira came out, she first showed off her sword skills to Asagiri, showing her recent progress, and then kissed Asagiri.

Although Core Mita's exclusive ability has not been unlocked yet, Asagiri still summoned her out. Then, because they could not communicate in language, Core Mita used a lot of gestures and finally made Asagiri and Iwanaga Kotoko understand what she meant.

"I'm a robot, I can't eat it."

The same goes for the puppet monster Mita, but the funniest thing is the reactions of Sleepy Mita and Pocket Mita.

Miniature Mita faced the cake that was much taller than her. She was so happy that she seemed to have fallen into the world of desserts and started to show off wildly. Finally, she tried her best and successfully ate a small corner of the chocolate cake.

And Sleepy Mita...

He couldn't wake her up, he really couldn't, so Asagiri could only symbolically apply some cream on her lips and let her go back to sleep.

Chapter 20: 019 New Personality Mask Vacancy

Later, in a forest outside Kawasaki City.

"Thank you, thank you! Thank you very much, thank you very much! Princess!"

Seeing the "mountain god" in front of him and the hundreds of monsters around him kneeling on the ground and thanking Iwanaga Kotoko repeatedly, Asagiri, who was standing next to Iwanaga Kotoko, couldn't help but complain.

"Is this the mountain god?"

Iwanaga Kotoko smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"My dear Princess' boyfriend, I am the mountain god..."

Seeing the tall mountain god wearing a wide white imperial robe and nearly three meters tall, Chaowu looked at him carefully and spoke slowly.

"You...are a rat demon?"

It’s no wonder that Asagiri couldn’t help but complain. I can only say that the appearance of this mountain god is indeed a bit funny.

Although it was wearing a white imperial robe and looked very majestic, it actually looked like a fat gray rat. Its long tail stretched out from the hem of the robe and kept shaking.

The long beard on his face adds a bit of funny and humorous temperament, and is the finishing touch.

"You've put on such thick blush, are you still a female mouse?"

Upon hearing this, the Mouse Mountain God's small eyes showed deep awe, and he prostrated himself on the ground again.

"As expected of the princess' boyfriend, you saw through my true colors right away!"

Asagiri: "...It would be strange if you couldn't see through it, right?"

Sensing Asagiri's doubt, Iwanaga Kotoko moved closer to him, stood on tiptoe and whispered.

"Most monsters have low intelligence. Even this mountain god has the intelligence of a four or five-year-old child. Because of this, they are unable to resolve disputes on their own, so they asked me to become their god of wisdom. However, there is also a benefit. Most monsters are kind-hearted and loyal. They would never betray me, the princess."

After saying this, Iwanaga Kotoko looked at the mountain gods and monsters kneeling on the ground, raised her cane, pointed at Asagiri beside her, and said with a smile.

"From now on, you must treat him the same way you treat me. He is also your god. Do you understand?"

"Okay, my lord princess."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Iwanaga Kotoko walked up to Asagiri and smiled coquettishly.

"How is it? How does it feel to be the boyfriend of the youkai princess?"

"Isn't this title a bit too long?"

Just as Asagiri finished saying this with a smile, he suddenly felt as if something deep in his heart was touched.

"Asagiri, you..."

Seeing Asagiri's eyes turn into a bright golden color, Iwanaga Kotoko initially thought that he was using the power of the personality mask again.

The monsters around and the mouse mountain god also sensed the inexplicable oppressive feeling emanating from Asagi. They were already a little afraid of the princess's boyfriend, and now they were even crawling on the ground, their bodies shaking like sieves, not even daring to raise their heads.

"This is..."

Looking at the phantom Tarot card spinning and falling in the air, Chaowu stretched out his right hand to catch it. He saw that the Tarot card standing in his palm, spinning, had a pattern of an upright magician printed on it.

"magician?"

Seeing the phantom tarot card with the magician pattern gradually disappear into Asagiri's palm, Iwanaga Kotoko was surprised and puzzled.

"Did you get a new Persona? Where did this magician come from?"

Asagiri smiled and replied, "You are the magician."

"What!?"

Iwanaga Kotoko's face first changed with shock, then tears welled up in her eyes and she spoke in a crying voice.

"Wuwuwu, first you used me as a tool, wantonly venting your beast-like desires on me, and then you wanted to subdue me and make me a personality mask. This is not a personality mask at all, you must be taking me back to be a slave, to play with me 24 hours a day..."

"Don't go crazy here."

Asagiri interrupted Iwanaga Kotoko's abstract mental attack and spoke in a calm tone.

"You won't become my Persona, but because you represent the magus, I've unlocked a new Persona slot."

"A new Persona slot?"

Although Iwanaga Kotoko usually looks a bit off-key, she would not mess around with abstract things at such a serious moment. She muttered to herself while thinking.

"It's clearly a talent unlocked after clearing a dungeon, but besides the system's rewards, I've unlocked a new Persona slot due to some real-world reasons... I'm a proper magus, so could it be..."

When Iwanaga Kotoko said this, she looked hesitant and even didn't quite believe her own analysis.

"You don't unlock a new Persona slot every time you add a harem member, do you? What kind of talent is this? Why does it look like it was transplanted from butter?"

"How is that possible? It just looks like it."

Asagiri shook his head and explained patiently.

"It's a little hard to explain in words, but you can simply understand that the bond I form with my destined person, and the bond I form with each person, will unlock a new slot for my personality mask, and each person also has a corresponding tarot card symbol."

"For example, you are a proper magician. As for Yuuki Asuna...Pope, Queen, Chariot, Love, all of these are possible. As for Kato, it should be a Hermit."

"Personas are originally the power born from the sea of my soul. After meeting certain conditions and gaining a bond with others, my sea of ​​heart will become more abundant, allowing me to accommodate more personalities. That's roughly what it means."

"Oh~"
