A foreigner's journey
Chapter 83 Stranger
Heather narrowed her eyes slightly...it was the guy who sent her away from the earth!
"Is this also your handiwork?" Heather, who was in the center of the tetrahedron, gestured with her fingers towards the black mist tentacles that were constantly hitting the protective shield in all directions, with a hint of unhappiness in her tone: "This is what you meant by 'Have a nice trip' ?I’m about to be played to death!”
The original handwriting was immediately erased, and new frost handwriting reappeared——
[Sorry, there was a slight mistake, so I wanted to help you cover it up before finishing it. Unexpectedly, the local residents were so enthusiastic that they woke you up. 】
Tsk, I suddenly wanted to hit someone... The expression on Heather's face became even more unhappy.
[By the way, if you want my help, you better hurry up. According to calculations, you still have up to 30 seconds. 】
【29 seconds. 】
【28 seconds. 】
"How are you going to help?" Heather impatiently interrupted the teasing countdown: "Can you clean up all this black mist?"
[No, I have an easier way. 】
"...The way you said is to drive me away from this world again, right?" Heather seemed to have guessed what the other party wanted to say.
[Smart, you still have 20 seconds to think about it. 】
Heather almost said a national curse. Do you think this is the outline of a bad novel? The Ant Chapter and the Dark Continent Chapter haven’t even started yet, and you’re sending me off just after the Youkexin Chapter? Is this really my travel passport? The most it counts is a visa on arrival, and you just kick people out when you say they’re going to leave, without even giving them a chance to hold a farewell party?
"I really can't stay for a while longer? I want to say goodbye to many people." Heather is really unwilling to give in. After time travel, she has been honest and not causing trouble, and has been a down-to-earth person. Why was she driven away by the will of the world? At least... at least let me say goodbye to Daddy Jack, Izanabi, Kurapika, and those new friends I made!
[15 seconds left. I'm afraid it's unrealistic to say goodbye. If you want to hear a detailed explanation, I'll have to wait until I send you back. 】
Even if you say you'll send me back...send me back? Speaking of going home, Heather immediately stopped feeling sleepy.
Now I have the [Light Egg] as a big killer. After returning to Earth, I will first drive away bad luck for my parents, and then use 'forced downgrade' to suppress my own specialness, so that I can live a normal life. Live!
Thinking of this, Heather no longer hesitated: "Send me back! Immediately!"
Without me, a traveler from another world, the plot of this world would surely be back on track, right? I'm sorry, friends, it's true that going home is more important to me. Just think that I died in the black mist. I hope you can live a safe and happy life in the future.
Uh-huh!
As soon as Heather finished speaking, a swirling black mist that looked similar to the surrounding violent black mist but was different from the inside swallowed up Heather and the four light eggs.
The black mist tentacles from the outside world collided with each other. After losing their target, they expanded their range and seemed to be searching. Soon, the black mist tornado that enveloped the Hunter Association building began to stop and gradually dispersed, revealing the dilapidated and incomplete building inside.
‘He’ can feel that there are indeed no foreign objects in this world.
[Request] Accomplished.

………………
dark.
Nothing could be seen, pure and utter darkness.
What follows is a feeling of suffocation, a feeling of suffocation coming from the depths of the soul.
This feeling was not unfamiliar, Heather had experienced it once before.
It was like diving naked into the cold seabed, but this time Heather's soul seemed to be shrouded and protected by light and flames, and there was no longer that desperate feeling of depression and torture.
Bang!
Heather felt like she had fallen onto the hard checkered floor tiles.
Shaking his head, he slowly got up and saw the familiar mirror.
Mirror? Heather looked down and saw a toothbrush lying quietly in the sink, which seemed inexplicably familiar.
My toilet? Have you really come back?
At this time, a line of frosty handwriting appeared on the mirror - [Hi, was this trip a pleasant one? 】
But Heather ignored him at all, and instead flew to the closed toilet door and reached out to grab the door handle. I'm back! Get rid of bad luck for mom and dad right now!
He missed a chance.
The doorknob seemed like an illusory dream, impossible to touch.
Heather's thoughts surged and she kicked the door hard. Even a metal security door can be kicked to pieces with strange force, but it is of no use to this ordinary toilet door. There was no feeling of force or recoil at all, as if he had kicked himself in the mist.
Heather froze on the spot and fell into silence. After a long time, she slowly looked back at the white frost writing on the mirror and asked word by word:
"……You fool me?"
The white frost writing was erased, and a line of writing was condensed again - [It seems that you don't like the skin of this room, then I will change it. 】
Naturally, without any sense of inconsistency, the whole room suddenly switched to Heather's room on the second floor of Octopus Jack's Department Store. Even the empty envelopes on the table were exactly the same, except that the mirror was still the same mirror. .
[I can explain everything to you. Can we talk calmly? This time, we have plenty of time. 】
Heather slumped down on the wooden floor and looked at the white frost writing on the mirror: "Then tell me, what is going on with that black mist?"
[Do you still remember meeting a time traveler named Miki Shintaro? 】
"I did meet him. I thought he was also your client. Because it would have an extremely negative impact on my subsequent development, at that time he was targeted by Paris Stone again, so I killed him." Heather nodded. .
[He actually has a host body on his body, named...forget it, there's no point in naming it. In short, he is a very troublesome existence, but because he is very afraid of you, he does not possess you. 】
"Because 'I' wreaked havoc in Miki's world? By the way, was that me too? A peer from another world?" Heather was a little curious.
[No, that was also an accident. However, the target of 'you' in that world was this host body. Just when 'you' was about to catch his true body, he took Miki through time and came to the hunter world by coincidence. 】
"Then you were touched by me? No, according to you, this thing can't be killed by physical means, right? It didn't possess me, so who possessed it... Damn, Killua?"
Heather's mind was spinning very fast and she guessed the truth at once: "Then Killua felt something was wrong with this thing, so he went to find an unknown object to get rid of it. The unknown object didn't know what was going on and directly expanded its target to all the time-travelers. I also suffered. calamity?"
[You guessed it right, a very exciting deduction. 】
"Who did I, I, I offend?" Heather was so angry that she scratched her black curly hair into a mess. This was really a lie!
[In fact, the time travel between Miki and the host body was through a loophole in the sea of time and space, which caused your private world to be disturbed. 】
Private world? Heather narrowed her eyes: "You mean...this Hunter World was specially prepared by you for me?"
[Don’t you find that the power system of this world fits you very well? The Hunter World was supposed to be the final place I prepared for you, a world that belongs exclusively to you. You no longer have to suppress yourself in this world and can freely express your innate power. Of course, I am not responsible for the outcome or consequences of doing so. 】
"Wait a minute, who are you?" Heather asked the question she wanted to ask before her last time traveling: "Why do you have to arrange for me to go to a different world?"
[You are the ‘accident’ of this world, Heather. Occasionally, a very few parallel worlds will give birth to powerful life forms that far surpass their own kind and even make these same kinds of people unable to understand their existence. The world will of this parallel world will think that it should not exist, and will grow as the life form grows. Apply pressure to it. 】
"What does this have to do with you?"
[I belong to a higher-dimensional manager organization that you cannot understand. When encountering a situation like yours, I will activate a special plan to provide you with the appropriate solution as much as possible. After all, unique life forms like you are very rare in many parallel worlds. 】
"...Rare animal protection organization? Do you regard me as a rare and endangered animal?" Heather said in an incomprehensible tone.
[It’s okay if you insist on understanding it this way. Although our starting point is much nobler than you think, you are more dignified in our eyes than you think. You and I have an equal relationship. We voluntarily provide you with free help, and you are free to accept or not accept the help. 】
"..."
Heather felt that her three views had been impacted. High dimensions... isn't it the same as looking at ants?
"In the end, I neither really went home nor stayed in the Hunter World... I originally wanted to use the power of unknown objects to help me go home." Heather sighed without motivation.
[I can tell you with certainty that once you leave a certain world, it is basically impossible to go back. The unknown object is just a relatively powerful existence in the Hunter World. It has no ability to really send you back to Earth. 】
Heather's head dropped lower: "...Then I can only stay in this empty room for the rest of my life? Do I eat the floor?"
[Given that a large part of the reason why you left Hunter World was due to negligence in our work, and you performed quite well in Hunter World. So, I have a new proposal here. Do you want to hear it? 】
"Aren't you talking nonsense? How can I not listen to what I'm in now?" Heather just wanted to smash the dog mirror with one punch.
[There is a travel agreement between the vast parallel worlds as numerous as the stars, which is called "The Journey of the Stranger". To put it simply, it is to allow people who have left their own world to obtain the fire of "outsiders", and then travel between worlds one after another. If you can make it to the end, what will be waiting for you will be a "wishes", if so Guaranteed universal wish. 】
"...From a hunter fan to an infinite stream?" Heather didn't want to complain anymore: "Are you full enough to hold on? What benefits does watching other people time travel do to you? Is it just fun to watch a show?"
[Travel agreements naturally exist for a reason. There are very few people in these countless parallel worlds who are qualified to participate. Without exception, they all require a ‘letter of recommendation’, and I happen to have the qualifications to issue a ‘letter of recommendation’. If returning to your parents on Earth is your greatest wish, joining a travel agreement is your only option. 】
"It's 'just right' again... I feel like my life has been surrounded by 'just right' and 'coincidence'."
Heather only felt that she was sinking deeper and deeper, but even if this was a trap set by the bastard in the mirror, he could only dig in. The situation was so compelling:
"Besides, from what you just said, I'm not the only one participating in this Laoshizi travel agreement, right? Everyone else has been participating for a long time. Even if I participate, I can't keep up with the progress."
[The travel agreement is independent of the sea of time and space, and time is meaningless to it. Even if you are just participating now, in a sense you are still standing on the same starting line as the first contestant. 】
"..."
It has to be said that in this desperate situation, the travel agreement is indeed a good choice for Heather - not only has the opportunity to qualify for a wish to go home, but also enjoys the travel process of experiencing different world scenery.
Heather made it very clear when chatting with Kim Fulisi that he, like Kim, wanted to enjoy traveling but also arrive at the destination perfectly.
He is such a greedy person.
"Let's talk about this travel agreement carefully."
Heather felt that if she really wanted to participate, she had to figure everything out: "What are the criteria for traveling through and leaving a world? What tasks do I need to complete to leave and enter the next world?"
[Very well, I like to get straight to the point. The travel agreement stipulates that the worlds that participants travel through are randomly selected, but they will try to be as close to the well-known cultural works of their original world civilization, such as the "Hunter X Hunter" comics you have read. After entering this world, participants will get a random task, maybe to get something from this world, maybe to achieve a great achievement that is difficult to complete. As long as this task is completed, you can choose to leave this world. 】
"You're not going to put a mission system in my head, are you?"
[Each task is randomly assigned by the travel agreement itself, with absolutely fair randomness, and will not be manipulated in the body of the participant. In addition, participants can obtain the fire of the ‘outsider’, with which they can travel through time and space without protection. 】
"What is the sea of time and space?"
[You can think of each world traveled as a small island in the sea, and the sea of time and space is the ever-changing stormy waves, and the 'outsider' fire is the ship that helps you cross the sea. Without the protection of fire or managers, ordinary life forms would not be able to break through the world's barriers and cross the sea of time and space. The moment they enter the sea of time and space, they will completely dissipate due to the drowning of their souls. 】
"...Okay, I won't ask how Miki and his system traveled through the sea of time and space. Anyway, you will only say 'it was an accident'."
[It was indeed an accident. 】
"How many contestants are there now? How good are they?"
[No comment on the first question, but the number is definitely not large. The second question... You are the weakest among them, there is no doubt about it. 】
"!!"
To be honest, Heather was still a little proud. With his powerful talent, he could match Isaac Nitro, the strongest telepathic user in the Hunter World, with just a little practice. Coupled with the two artifacts of absolute kingship and light eggs, he thought he would be able to win it by participating in a team-building activity. , I didn’t expect that I was actually the best?
It’s as if the head teacher would say slowly and sadly to every senior class of high school students, ‘You are the worst class I have ever taught. ’
[I have said before that every participant is a strange existence that stands out among trillions of parallel worlds, a strong one among the strong who were expelled from the original world. Compared with them, you are just a child who has just grown up. 】
"...If this happened in the time-traveling world, would we directly open PVP mode?" Heather swallowed.
[Theoretically, you may not meet other contestants until you are naturally eliminated. After all, there are so many worlds to travel, and so few participants. But if you do meet other participants...]
"...Keep talking! Why did you stop? It's like I've died!" Heather said anxiously: "Do you have any rules prohibiting PVP between players in your travel agreement?"
[Let’s talk about rewards. The 'outsider' who survives to the end can obtain a 'wishe'. This is not an effective wish-making technique that is pretentious or deliberately misinterprets the original meaning. Whatever wish you want to achieve, it will definitely come true. Compared to the wishes of other participants, your 'safe return home' is extremely simple. 】
Gee, I completely ignored the problem of contestants fighting each other... It seems to be a game of raising monsters. He was first thrown into the Hunter World for a trial. If he performed well in the trial, he was brought back to be qualified as a contestant. Otherwise, he would have to stay there and become a local emperor for the rest of his life.
I feel very unhappy, very unhappy. But what can you do if you are unhappy? Now that this travel agreement is the only option to go home, Heather has no choice.
"The last question, can you take away local specialties from each world?" If you travel to those high-tech or high-demon worlds and get some powerful weapons, you can wreak havoc on some worlds with lower levels of force.
[You cannot take anything away from the previous world unless you use special abilities to 'privatize' it. 】
"You mean I don't even have any clothes every time I travel through time?"
[If it is ordinary clothes, there are no restrictions, but anything that may violate the rules will be removed from the clothes. 】
"If I participate, can you give me a spoiler about the world I'm about to travel to?"
[No, world selection is determined randomly. Also, your 'last question' is a bit much. 】
"Alright alright."
Heather stood up, stretched her arms, and looked at the white frost writing on the mirror:
"If I participate, do I need to sign any paper agreement or anything like that?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the room on the second floor collapsed instantly and turned into a vast cosmic galaxy, and the mirror slowly floated beside him.
Heather, floating in the universe, did not feel any suffocation or coldness. A little fire appeared in front of him first, and then the fire grew stronger, and finally turned into a ball of fire the size of a human heart, pulsing rhythmically.
Is this the fire of ‘outsiders’?
[Hold it. 】
Heather reached out and held the fire as instructed. There was no burning feeling, and a warm current flowed down her arm and throughout her body, soaking into her soul.
He could feel a ball of fire in his chest, not his heart, but the chest of a more mysterious soul.
Immediately afterwards, the galaxy twisted and the universe collapsed, forming a swirling channel composed of black mist in front of Heather.
A line of frosty writing slowly appeared on the mirror floating aside - [We will probably never meet again in the future. I wish you a safe journey, stranger. 】
After Heather finished reading, the mirror automatically shattered into black mist and merged into the vortex channel.
Heather exhaled and took her first step towards the passage as a 'foreigner'.
let's start!
PS: Two chapters in one, just treat it as two chapters.
PS: I may have to pause for a day tomorrow to sort out the outline of the new volume for the last time. Then double updates on weekends!
