Chapter 118 Love in the Dark

"boom--"

When the spotlight in the center of the stage suddenly shone down, the bright beam tore through the darkness and illuminated that lonely figure.

The moment the mask was gently lifted, the air seemed to freeze, and all sound vanished instantly. Countless gazes in the theater turned to the center of the stage, and the gradually revealed face was like a bombshell, plunging the entire space into a suffocating silence.

One second, two seconds—someone suddenly gasped, and then, as if in a chain reaction, the silence in the theater was abruptly broken.

"Wait! Whose face is that?!"

“How is it possible…?!”

The audience stared wide-eyed, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing.

Under the spotlight, those somewhat bewildered yet familiar eyes, those delicate features, and that subtle, enigmatic charm between his brows... all of this clearly revealed the identity of Motis, the guitarist for Henka.

Comedian Wakaba, or more accurately, the daughter of the legendary comedian Wakaba, who made countless people laugh and was active on screen for more than ten years, and the popular actress Mina Mori!

She is the author and singer of Japan's second national anthem, "The Only Flower in the World," the author of the classic and immortal fairy tale "The Cat's Words," which has sold hundreds of millions of copies worldwide and is popular in hundreds of countries, and the classic child star on the film and television screen, Ruoye Mutsu!

"So... Mortis is actually Mutsu-chan?" someone exclaimed in surprise.

"I haven't heard from Mutsu-chan in a long time. Has she made a comeback?"

The whispers in the audience grew louder and louder, a mixture of excitement, shock, doubt, and fervor surging towards the girl in the center of the stage.

After all, Ruoye Mu's cuteness and achievements made this country, which worships the strong, very fond of her.

Ruo Yemu stood in the center of the stage, facing all these gazes, her heart feeling as if it were being tightly gripped. Her lips trembled slightly, her breathing became rapid, and she could even feel the slight chill in her fingertips.

I never imagined this day would come in this way.

Ruo Ye Mu lowered her head, looking at her slightly trembling fingers. The deafening murmurs from the audience filled her ears, and her mind went blank.

The girl heard the gasps and gasps from the audience and felt countless eyes on her. However, amidst those intersecting gazes, her eyes involuntarily fell on Toyokawa Shoko.

Then, Ruoye Mu saw that look of disappointment.

It wasn't true disgust, nor anger, but a complex emotion that was hard to define. Those usually clear and bright eyes lacked their usual brilliance, and a hint of hurt shone through, as if to say: "Mu is hurting because of you again."

At that moment, the guitar-playing girl felt as if her heart had been gripped tightly by something.

She doesn't understand...

No, perhaps she understands, but she's just afraid to face it. So, she doesn't want to face it anymore.

"What exactly is going on?"

Having been withdrawn for who knows how many years, Ichinose Wakaba, kicked out of her body, was dazzled by the stage lights. Before her stood a purple-haired girl with a playful expression—what a beautiful expression Mortis~

Overwhelmed with excitement, Yutenji Ruomai was ecstatic because of the buzz she had generated: "See? I told you I was going to take off my mask!"

She tilted her head like a victor and looked at Toyokawa Shoko. What was this seemingly strong girl thinking at that moment?

Yutenji Wakana was very curious, but now was not the time for curiosity—next was Hailing's mask~

This time, the girl, determined to shatter the heavens, believed that no one could stop her.

However, when she arrived in front of Hachiman Kairin, who represented fear, the figures behind them moved.

—A crisp guitar note broke the silence.

Yutenji Wakame suddenly snapped out of her daze, her gaze drawn to the figure in the center of the stage.

Her pale green hair shimmered softly under the lamplight. The girl gently lifted the pink guitar in her hand, her fingertips touching the strings, producing the first tremolo.

In the center of the stage, a girl with light green hair gently picked up her pink guitar.

Her fingertips landed on the strings, gently yet firmly, and as the first crisp plucked note rang out, the air on the stage seemed to freeze for a moment.

—Everyone was captivated.

Below the stage, the audience's eyes were burning with anticipation, as if waiting for some miracle to happen.

Yutenji Wakame's face was pale, and her pupils trembled slightly, as if she were facing some kind of irresistible fate.

Mitsukasa raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes showing surprise, as if she hadn't expected her to step forward at such a moment.

And Toyokawa Shoko...

Her gaze was focused and sparkling, like the most brilliant star in the night sky, and for a moment, it seemed to reflect countless starlight.

His joy and admiration were palpable.

Because, Toyokawa Shoko knew that her childhood sweetheart, who could shelter her from the wind and rain, had returned.

The stage lights dimmed slightly, leaving only a gentle beam of light that fell on the pale green figure in the center of the stage.

The girl stood there quietly, gently cradling the pink guitar in her arms. Her fingertips touched the strings, trembling slightly. The first clear note flowed from her fingertips, like a ray of light in the night, breaking the stillness of the air.

love secretly——

Her voice was soft yet firm, carrying a hint of indescribable sadness, and also a kind of unwavering persistence. As the melody progressed, the piano and the singing intertwined, like a night breeze blowing through quiet streets, or like moonlight falling on an unknown corner, revealing a faint sorrow and a deep-seated passion.

The audience below the stage held their breath, immersed in the melody of the song.

Yutenji Ruomai gripped the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands, her breathing becoming rapid involuntarily, as if the melody had stirred up some deep-seated memories in her heart.

Miku Miku pursed her lips slightly, the surprise in her eyes gradually replaced by focus, her fingertips trembling gently with the rhythm, seemingly unconsciously resonating with the melody.

And Toyokawa Shoko—

Her gaze, as bright as stars, reflected the girl on stage, the pink guitar, and the gentle yet resolute voice. Her lips parted slightly, but no sound came out; she simply gazed silently, as if unwilling to miss this moment of brilliance.

"Dance on! This is the Highway to Dawn!"

The girl gently closed her eyes, and the vibrating strings accompanied the song as it slowly faded away, the lingering sound like a soft sigh, or a heartfelt confession.

On the stage, there was only her, and that melody that pierced through the night.

The idea of ​​writing the main character as Ruoye Mu's primary personality came to me after watching episode 4 of Mother Hen Card. At first, I didn't like the idea of ​​a second personality, since it was like adding another character.

However, during the episode with the many monsters later on, I suddenly thought of Kara no Kyoukai—Holy crap? Could you make something like that?

Then you see what happens next: in the simulation, the protagonist transforms into the main personality of Ruoye Mu.

As for why it's written this way, this chapter should make it very clear—Mu is becoming increasingly attached to the main personality.

Then, the final, third simulation was conducted to normalize this unhealthy attachment.

This is roughly the outline of my book: a female protagonist and three simulations to completely conquer her.

The original title of the book was "Simulation: They All Became Female Reincarnations".

P.S. This song is "Love in the Dark" by Izumi Sakai. I think it's a dark, heavy metal rock song that's perfect for Muji, a really cool song.

Chapter 119 In short, let's first wipe out the Toyokawa family.

At 15, when you were withdrawn, RuoV?I's father, Ye Mu, kicked you out of your body. He hid in your little world and entrusted everything to you.

[And faced with this scene of Teacher Da Miao starting to act up, fueled by both old and new grudges, you went all out and sang Izumi Sakai's "Love in the Dark."]

"Love in the Dark" was the last song Izumi Sakai sang for Detective Conan, and like SAMP's "The Only Flower in the World," it's a classic.

The heavy metal arrangement and dark lyrics perfectly matched the tone of "Mother Chicken," so you went all out. Combined with years of hard work practicing your guitar, which has become a singing instrument, and giving it your all, you made the audience fall at your feet once again after 10 years, becoming prisoners of your song.

[And because of your actions, the crisis that Mother Hen faced was resolved.]

Because you've been singing for so many years, no one paid attention to Yutenji Ruomai's actions, and because they were so captivated by your voice, Amonis forgot what he was supposed to do in the first place.

Therefore, this time, only you and Yutenji Wakana have removed their masks.

[Your reappearance in front of the public after your mask was removed, especially your song after many years, made your fans cheer. You became the headline for a while, and Mujika's fame also soared because of you.]

Compared to Yutenji Wakana, who can only be considered a supporting character, she was like an insignificant minor character, with her fame and popularity remaining completely flat.

Even your only recent viral video, a makeup tutorial imitating your style, was taken down due to copyright issues.

Of course, the real reason is that you reported it.

[Because you were disturbed due to your reclusive nature and were thrown out to clean up a mess, you're furious. How did I become Ruoye Mushi in the first place?! You're in a bad mood, and having someone to vent on, you'd feel bad if you didn't go all out and destroy them—it would be a disservice to all the suffering you've endured over the years.]

So, you started planning.

[First, there was a problem with Yutenji Ruomai's YouTube channel. You should know that YouTube has a rule that if an account is shut down three times within a year due to copyright issues, it will be permanently banned.]

[Thanks to you, Yutenji Ruomai watched as her YouTube account, which she had worked hard for several years to reach over 300,000 views, disappeared.]

[Then, you kicked Mortis out. Because Ruoye Mu stopped caring about things, Mortis started chattering and harassing you every day whenever you came out—Why isn't Ruoye coming out? Xiao Mu is clearly about to break down!]

[You didn't want to face the loss of **, so after dealing with Yutenji Wakana, you kicked Mortis out—now it's your turn.]

Then, you ran to Mortis's room and shut yourself away.

[Later, Mortis, that little devil, faced Toyokawa Shoko who came knocking on her door: I'm actually not Mutsumi, nor am I your childhood friend.]

Faced with being blamed, Mortis initially followed Ruoye Mu's advice—"I will protect Xiangzi for you."

[As a result, all sorts of bizarre things happened, and since Yutenji Wakana, having lost track of what was going on without your help, started causing trouble again.]

Then, after Mortis messed everything up, you were kicked out again.

"No way? Why me again?!"

Faced with Toyokawa Shoko, who had been waiting outside the door for a month, Ichinose Wakaba was at her wit's end—she had absolutely no desire to deal with this mess.

Because she had become Mutsumi Ruka, Ichinose Wakaba felt that this simulation was a complete failure.

Therefore, people who don't want to care about anything and can't even commit suicide just want to isolate themselves until the end of their lives.

As a result, Ichinose Wakaba was repeatedly kicked out of the body by Ruoba Mutsumi to clean up the mess.

"I'm clearly the main personality of this body, aren't I?!"

Completely unable to control her body, Ichinose Wakaba couldn't even give up. So, when Nagasaki Sase came knocking, Ichinose Wakaba rolled over and pinned him down on the bed—Hey Sase, are you enjoying this situation?

You were actually pitying me when you were talking to Ichinose Wakaba, weren't you? You satisfied your own feelings in this way, and with just one sentence, you made Nagasaki Sosei withdraw into himself.

Then, Ichinose Wakaba kicked open the door and walked up to Toyokawa Shoko, who was overjoyed to see her.

"Has the young lady had enough of playing house?!"

"Mu, what are you saying? I didn't."

Faced with Ichinose Wakaba's probing questions, Toyokawa Shoko took two steps back in fright. But thinking of how Ruoba Mutsumi had become mentally unstable because of her, she mustered her courage and stepped forward again—"Mutsumi, I'll do anything if you can forgive me."

"You're so arrogant to say that. What can a high school student like you do? Rely on your grandfather? Rely on the Toyokawa family?!"

Rebuked by Ichinose Wakaba, Toyokawa Shoko's eyes welled up with tears. She felt that her childhood friend had become strange and unfamiliar.

"Hehe, you've never really understood me at all."

"Are you Mortis? Please allow me to meet you amicably."

“I am not Mortis, and Mu does not want to meet you.”

Facing Toyokawa Shoko's desperate gaze, (I) Ichino Wakaba grabbed the other's hand and grinned at Toyokawa Shoko's incomprehensible gaze—Didn't you say you were willing to do anything? Come with me.

Next, take Toyokawa Shoko to her father. When you press him about why he makes his daughter support him when she has money and is able-bodied, he falls silent.

[Next, you took Toyokawa Shoko to Misaki Miku, and then led all three of them to see Toyokawa's grandfather: "Old man, you've really got some tricks up your sleeve. Not long after Shoko's grandmother passed away, you had a daughter with another man's woman."]

Faced with your words, Toyokawa Noboru fell silent, Misaki Hatsune was too frightened to speak, and Toyokawa Shoko looked utterly shocked.

Then, facing you, Feng Jun asked Lu Chuan Lao Deng what exactly he wanted to do?

Your answer is simple: let Toyokawa Shoko inherit the Toyokawa family.

What do you know? What do you know about the Toyokawa family? They're a dark force that devours people!

You clicked your tongue, and then the very next day, the entire branch family of the Toyokawa clan was dead.

[Subsequently, Toyokawa Shoko successfully inherited the Toyokawa family business.]

No one dared to resist, because the precedent of resistance was already laid out before them.

[And you, feeling you could continue to slack off, knocked on the room where Ruoye Mu was hiding, hoping she would come out.]

Chapter 120 You can't do this to me!!!

Unfortunately, you were turned away; Ruo Yemu stayed in her room and wouldn't come out. No matter how much you knocked, even threatening to break the door, you couldn't get her to come out.

[You should be the dominant personality of this body, but Ruoye Mutsu has more control over it than you.]

Then, Mortis, who lived in the next room, came out.

[Should we enable augmented reality mode?]
