I Have Crossed Over, but You Are The Second Week?

And Echidna, who owns the Book of Wisdom, is of course very clear about how many times this world has experienced what can be said to be an extreme level of 'time regression'.It is also very clear what kind of stories Natsuki Subaru and the people around him have experienced in those worlds before "back in time".

However, in fact, the ability of "return by death" is limited. The ability of "return by death" given by the "jealous witch" Shatila is not what kind of person he hopes to become or what kind of things he can do. .

It's more simple, more straightforward, just hope that he can be happy, be able to love himself more, be able to pay more attention to himself, and be able to... live on.

Therefore, 'return by death' is not a panacea. It can only rewind the incident to the most recent time after Subaru Nayuki died.

Then, of course, it is impossible for such an ability to go back in time for a long time. Unless Subaru Natsuki himself lives in an environment where he cannot feel at ease all year round, otherwise such a thing cannot happen.

So, for this limited 'return by death', what if there is an intervention from outside forces?If there is an external force affecting the ability of 'return by death', can it break through the limit?

The answer to the question is yes, and it is possible to achieve a real "return in time" that even Subaru Natsuki himself, who has the omnipotence of "return by death", cannot remember the memory.

And the person who interfered with the protection of "Return by Death" and constantly "resets" the world is naturally the "Miss System" that Echidna mentioned in front of Subaru, who should have been known to no one except Subaru.

And of course, whether it's Subaru Natsuki who became the 'Purge King', Subaru Natsuki who became the king of Lugnica, Subaru Natsuki who became an arrogant bishop, Subaru Natsuki who fled to other countries, these Aki Donna knew it all.

However, in fact, not all the things that Echidna knew in the world that had experienced the "reset" were known through the book of wisdom in her hands.

Once again, only once, and at the same time the last reset, in that time, Echidna experienced it not as a bystander, but as a participant staying beside Subaru.

At the same time, that was the most satisfying time for her, and it was also filled with the joy of pursuing unknown knowledge in the past.

That man named Natsuki Subaru leaned on her like a baby...

Where did it start? Of course, it is the same as this time, with the sanctuary as the beginning of the story, and the story that belongs to Echidna and Natsuki Subaru is tentatively opened.

Subaru Natsuki, who set foot in the sanctuary, and Echidna, who was trapped in the sanctuary with only her soul left, the two people who met here formed an incomparably deep bond.

At least, from Echidna's point of view, she and Natsuki Subaru have a deep bond that cannot be cut by anyone, and they can trust each other without doubting each other.

Facing a difficult situation and suffering from being unable to solve it, Nayuki Subaru asked her for help, and she also obeyed her feelings and gave Nayuki Subaru the necessary help.

They signed a contract with each other, and she will solve all the obstacles in front of Subaru Natsuki in the future, and what Subaru Natsuki pays is only 'freedom'.

Therefore, whether it is the crisis in the sanctuary, the countless crises after the sanctuary, the target of the Witch Cult, or the competition between the king|chosen ones, any difficulty will no longer be in front of her and Natsuki Subaru. is difficult.

There is a crisis?As long as you make full use of the ability of death return to continuously explore the solution.

Need information?As long as you make full use of the ability of returning after death to collect information in a way of sacrificing your life.

Can't tell if the choice in front of you is right?In the same way, as long as you make full use of the ability of death return, you can do countless trial and error that can be repeated.

She will give him advice at the most critical moment, and he will continue to optimize that advice and implement it through death regression.

One pays for his knowledge, the other for his companionship and myriad options and possibilities.

Isn't this the perfect partner?

Yes, for Echidna, this is the most perfect partner in the world.

Whenever the two reunited in this castle that belonged to her, whenever he drank his bodily fluids, whenever he was embraced by her like a baby without any resistance.

All of this made Echidna feel happy from the inside out.

That man belongs to her, and everything about that man named Natsuki Subaru, whether it is body or mind, is completely controlled by her.

Just like a child who is ignorant of the world and does not know what is right and what is wrong is extremely dependent on his mother, Subaru Natsuki, who was poured into her arms full of "love", is that child, and she is A mother who infuses her 'love' into an important child and guides the child's direction.

If it continues like this, as long as it continues like this, sooner or later, that man named Natsuki Subaru will truly become hers without any reservation.

At that time, there will be no other things in that man's eyes except her.

... Originally, Echidna thought so.

However, even after turning into a puppet without thoughts and emotions, the essence of the man named Subaru Natsuki remained unchanged.

Echidna realized that the core of that man seemed to be only the word 'salvation', and everything else was fake.

Her plan failed, and she had no way to completely take that man named Subaru Natsuki as her own.And when she realized this and felt discouraged for the first time in her life...

——Time, backtracked again.

Chapter 356 The Trial of Another Challenge

"Hey, ah, although it is true that there is no limit to the number of daily challenges in the trial, it is really beyond my expectation that I would choose to challenge for the second time in one day."

Echidna was drinking coffee not at a round table on the grassland, but at a table in an open-air cafe in a modern city, smiling at Subaru who was sitting opposite her.

Only a few hours had passed since the first challenge trial. Echidna originally thought that Subaru would give up the challenge in the future. Even if she wanted to challenge the trial again, it might take a night to adjust her mentality. .

Therefore, Echidna was really surprised to see Subaru again during the trial.

However, this kind of accident is hard to see in the expression.

"I didn't find you surprised at all."

Subaru, who was sitting in Echidna, scratched his head helplessly, then looked left and right at his surroundings.

"This time it's not at the school gate."

"If the environment is repeated all the time, it will lose its freshness. This will hinder the relationship between men and women to maintain freshness and pleasant emotions between each other."

Echidna smiled and said, "I don't want to be regarded as a boring woman by you."

"I always feel that there are some problems with your interpretation of novelty, and I don't think badness can be equated with boring."

"Hey, Subaru, you're really going too far. Even I won't be happy if you say girls are mean!"

"Didn't you say that this kind of evaluation is a compliment to you as a witch?"

"Witches are girls too, aren't girls all fickle?"

"...I always feel that you are making excuses."

Subaru sighed, this kind of unnutritive conversation with Echidna could calm his mind a little bit, but there was still something to face.

Roswaal said that the question of his identity is hidden in the ruins, and for this he must pass the test.

However, in fact, Subaru decided to challenge the trial again not because of the problems related to his identity that Roswaal said.Although there is indeed a certain degree of this factor, but generally speaking, it is not the key to his behavior. It can even be said that if it is just this matter, he doesn't want to care about it at all.

What really made Subaru decide to challenge the trial again, and the reason why he repeated the challenge within a day, was the fundamental problem with Emilia.

What is the content of the trial?

The content of the trial is to 'face your past'.

After Subaru challenged the trial for the first time, because he saw a part of his past that he had never remembered, he could not accept it and even felt that his belief was shaken for a while.

This kind of feeling made him feel like a thorn in his heart, so he couldn't ignore it and put it behind him, and he couldn't really act as usual as if nothing happened.

Wanting to escape, want to forget, want not to think, this is human nature, it is a matter of course, it is a natural thought that human beings will have when facing painful things, desperate things, and unacceptable things, Of course, Subaru would also have such thoughts.

But what about Emilia?

Emilia is the same person who challenged the trial, and Emilia also saw a certain past that belonged to her, so what kind of stimulation did Emilia receive?

Although Emilia was very calm when he woke up, and was even able to comfort him gently, but that didn't mean that Emilia really didn't care about the things in the trial.

Is it possible that Emilia is in pain too?Is it possible that Emilia actually wanted to escape the trial?Just because seeing him was uncomfortable, just because he saw him wavering, that's why he showed an indifferent attitude as if he was holding on, and made the choice to continue to challenge the trial?

Is it possible that just because Emilia woke up earlier, she adjusted her mood in advance so that he wouldn't worry too much?

After all, speaking from the heart, if Subaru had woken up earlier, no matter how uncomfortable it was to shake, he would have woken up because of it to avoid Emilia's worry.

Therefore, Subaru has no way to let it go, Subaru has no way to really escape and act like a shrinking turtle, let Emilia handle everything.

"It's time to start, the trial."

Subaru took a deep breath and then exhaled, looked at Echidna and asked, "We can't sit here forever, can we?"

This time, no matter what Subaru saw, he tried hard to accept it.But in the final analysis, this is just his idea, so he is not sure whether he can do it.

It's like a person who has never been in a relationship can often say, 'Isn't it just being dumped, what can't be accepted if it's divided. '

It is also as if someone who has never been betrayed by relatives and friends can say something like 'If you break up the relationship, you don't need to care about it'.

Before there is no actual experience, what is said is often without any basis and lacks authenticity.

"The trial will indeed continue, but this time is different from the last time. After all, I also said it before, because you don't have that memory, so the past you see is vague, short, and incomplete. .”

"And this time, I can let you see it from beginning to end!"

"But, the current me still has no memory, right?"

"Indeed, the inside of my head is still empty."

Echidna nodded, and then asked with a smile: "But, you have gradually recovered your memory, haven't you?"

"...Actually, you even know this."

"She's really an exaggerated witch."

Subaru curled his lips in displeasure.

Before entering the ruins to challenge, Subaru asked Miss System about his memory on the way to the ruins.

Undoubtedly, the past he saw during the trial was real, but he had forgotten it for some reason.

Subaru didn't care too much about why he forgot... No, to be precise, it was covered with another false memory.He didn't pay too much attention to why the current memories of high school were false, he just asked Miss System if there was any way to remind himself of the past memories.

If it is not the actual experience, and it is not the memory in the mind, even if he looks at it as a bystander, can he really accept it and transcend it without the feeling of being in the same place?

With such worries, Subaru asked Ms. System how she could recall real memories from the past.

Chapter 357 Indirect Kissing Echidna

"Oh, this crepe tastes really good. I'm a little envious of you. You seem to have a lot of delicious food here."

"Although I also think the crepes are quite delicious, and you shouldn't have to worry about gaining weight. But... we shouldn't be here to eat crepes, are we?"

Looking at Echidna beside her who was sipping crepes with a bit of cream on her lips, Subaru sighed helplessly.

"However, are the things here still edible?"

"If you want, of course you can!"

Echidna said seriously: "Although everything is false, in the final analysis, this is also an 'illusion' recreated through your memory, so everything that appears here, whether it is touch, vision, taste or smell, is completely different. It can be reproduced."

"That is to say, the crepe I am eating now is the taste of the crepe in your memory!"

Saying that, Echidna brought the crepe to Subaru's mouth.

"Come on, you shouldn't have eaten this for a long time, how about a taste of the memory?"
