In the next second, Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly noticed that the surrounding scenery had changed.

The surroundings were no longer the deserted school with no one around, but had turned into illusions with many student phantoms walking in the corridor, and there were also sounds of them communicating with each other.

"This is…"

Yukinoshita Yukino was stunned by the sudden change of this scene, but when she saw Yozora was trying his best to fight against the "Way Door" and trying to close it, she took a deep breath and forced herself to remain calm.

"It's okay, it's okay… These are all illusions…"

Just as Yukinoshita Yukino's voice fell, the "Way Door" seemed to have heard her words and showed a scene that she was very familiar with.

It was no longer in the corridor of the school, but a classroom that she had not forgotten to this day.

"Student Yukinoshita Yukino… Um… Is there anyone willing to team up with student Yukinoshita to complete today's after-school assignment?"

After the teacher on the podium asked this question, the classroom fell into silence.

Yukinoshita Yukino not only saw those former classmates, but also saw herself sitting alone in the corner, bowing her head and remaining silent.

"Still no one wants to team up with student Yukinoshita…"

The teacher was also a little embarrassed when he saw this situation, but he still said with a smile to comfort her.

"It's okay, student Yukinoshita, you can do it alone if you can, or the teacher can team up with you."

"No need."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at her younger self and gave the exact same answer as in her memory.

"I can do it alone…"

"I'll team up with her."

"Eh?"

Yukinoshita Yukino was stunned when she heard this sudden sentence.

In her memory, there was no such scene at all?

Yukinoshita Yukino looked towards the direction of the voice, only to see a handsome young man sitting on the so-called throne of kings, clearly not an elementary school student, standing out from the crowd, holding a can of frozen Coca-Cola and drinking heartily, slowly said.

"I want to team up with student Yukinoshita… I want to team up with Yukino."

"Why?"

Faced with this sudden change, the teachers and students in the classroom, as if triggered by some kind of program, began to distort their expressions and said in a strange tone.

"Why? Why?"

"Why do you care why?"

Yozora crossed his legs, glanced at the students in the classroom, and finally turned his gaze to Yukinoshita Yukino standing there.

"Because I feel like it."

"Bang."

The moment Yozora's voice fell, the surrounding scenery shattered like glass.

The familiar corridor reappeared in front of Yukinoshita Yukino, it was still the same scene, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

Her eyes flickered, and she looked at Yozora, who was pressing his hands on the door. Her lips trembled. After a while, she said softly in a slightly trembling, but deliberately strong tone.

"You… don't barge into other people's memories without permission…"

Yozora's answer was very simple.

"I feel like it."

"What a willful guy…"

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed slightly first, but a smile still appeared on the corner of her lips. Just as she was about to say something, she heard a roar from the distance of the corridor.

When she turned around, she saw several twisted, quadrupedal evil spirits crawling slowly towards the direction where she and Yozora were standing.

"Evil spirits… This area is already…"

Yukinoshita Yukino's pupils shrank in shock. She wanted to turn around and call Yozora, but she saw that he was doing his best to forcibly close the "Way Door".

She bit her silver teeth. Although her legs were still trembling, she took two steps forward instead of retreating, staring at the few evil spirits in the distance of the corridor, gritting her teeth and whispering.

"I… I can't escape anymore."

At the same time as her voice fell, Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly heard a cold but very gentle female voice in her mind.

"Have you finally made up your mind? You've really made me wait too long."

Chapter 445: Yukino and Haruno's Competition, the Plan to Return the Kusanagi Sword to its Rightful Owner

"This is… the awakening of soul materialization…"

Yukinoshita Yukino had imagined countless times in her mind when she would awaken her soul materialization. Even every time she acted, including the last time she went to Nishinomiya Yaeko's "Hall", she was ready to awaken, but contrary to her wishes, she failed to awaken her soul materialization ability that time.

But it was precisely at this time when her brain was blank and there was only one thought of not being able to escape that her awakening finally began.

"Looking for a so-called relationship that can be called 'genuine' is just your excuse."

"The 'genuine' thing you are pursuing has already been obtained."

"Now face your true self, and then… awaken this power that belongs to you, and obtain the relationship you have been craving for a long time."

"Here, call out my true name."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the few evil spirits that were getting closer and closer, and the ice-blue spiritual power flashed in her eyes. Her snow-white hands clenched into fists, and she slowly said.

"Here, call out your true name."

"Face the truth, Yuki Onna!"

At the same time as Yukinoshita Yukino called out the true name of her soul, a gust of cold wind blew through the corridor.

"Whoosh…"

A voice that sounded like the wind, but also like a woman's resentful sigh, rang out. A woman with the same long straight hair as Yukinoshita Yukino, but with the opposite hair color, as white as ice and snow, and a slender figure, appeared behind her.

Yukinoshita Yukino raised her hand and pointed to the few evil spirits that had approached within ten meters in front, and there was no fear in her voice, only a kind of coldness that was unconsciously revealed.

"Go, Yuki Onna."

"Mm."

Although Yukinoshita Yukino is the kind of Tsundere personality that is insincere, the contrast between her inner self and her appearance is not as great as that of Eriri, who is also a Tsundere, and she is generally a person who likes to be quiet, which also leads to her soul's true body, Yuki Onna, also does not like to be too verbose, but prefers to take direct action.

"Whoosh…"

The Yuki-onna floated in mid-air, her white-socked feet not touching the ground. She raised her right hand to her mouth, making a blowing gesture. A cloud of pure white, icy mist escaped her rosy lips, carrying with it shards of ice, and blew towards the distant evil spirits.

"You can see it!"

Seeing the true form of the soul appear behind Yukinoshita Yukino, the evil spirits sensed the spiritual power emanating from her. They had initially thought of her as an ordinary human who could see them, but now, in their eyes, Yukinoshita Yukino, who had just awakened as a spiritualist, was simply a delicious meal within reach.

Braving the biting cold wind exhaled by the Yuki-onna, the movements of the evil spirits were somewhat stiff, and the skin on their bodies was cut by the razor-sharp ice shards. However, they still crawled step by step on all fours towards Yukinoshita Yukino.

"Huff... Huff..."

This time, it wasn't the Yuki-onna exhaling, but Yukinoshita Yukino's rapid breathing.

Physical strength was originally her weakness. Moreover, it was her first time awakening and using the ability of soul materialization. Her mental strength was still holding up, but her physical strength was already at its limit. She was even struggling to maintain a standing posture.

"Just hold on a little longer..."

Yukinoshita Yukino felt her vision becoming blurry, but looking at the terrifying evil spirits approaching, baring their fangs and claws, their eyes filled with twisted expressions, she still gritted her silver teeth, maintaining the Yuki-onna's existence.

Just as she was planning to use the ability of soul materialization again, to have the Yuki-onna blow out that biting cold wind once more, she felt someone gently place a hand on her shoulder.

"You've done enough. Thank you for your hard work."

Hearing Yexing's usual, relaxed voice, Yukinoshita Yukino originally wanted to continue to push herself, but after hesitating for a moment, she couldn't resist the feeling of powerlessness coming from her body and collapsed to the ground, still stubbornly saying.

"Th-then I'll leave it to you."

"You really are stubborn."

Yexing chuckled and teased her, then the smile on his face gradually disappeared. Looking at the evil spirits in front of him, black flames began to burn on the Onimaru Kunitsuna in his hand, and he said softly.

"Leave the rest to me, Yukino."

......

Five minutes later, Yexing helped Yukinoshita Yukino out of the teaching building.

Given Yukinoshita Yukino's personality of liking to push herself, agreeing to be helped out like this meant that she really had no strength left.

Seeing the two of them come out, Yagami Light, who was standing at the school gate, wasn't surprised at all. He simply lowered the nail gun in his hand and drove a silver nail, forged by fusing a relic, into the head of the evil spirit he was stepping on, then said in a flat tone.

"Has it been taken care of?"

"Yeah, it's done."

Yukinoshita Yukino wasn't stupid. Seeing Yagami Light still looking so relaxed, she had already guessed it.

With his abilities, he shouldn't have let any evil spirits enter the teaching building. Even if he couldn't hold them off, he should have at least given a signal.

Also, did a spiritualist as strong as Yexing really need to put on such a show, gritting his teeth as if he was using all his spiritual power, just to close a 'gate' that wasn't opened that wide and hadn't started causing a calamity?

This was clearly... deliberate by the two of them.

The purpose was to put her in a real crisis, so that she could awaken the ability of soul materialization.

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't like false lies, but this time...

She glanced at Yexing, who was supporting her beside her, and remembered the intimate way he had just called her Yukino. Her eyes couldn't help but soften a lot.

This time, she'd just treat it as an exception.

......

Meanwhile, outside the Chiba City Museum.

"Thank you, everyone, for coming to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Chiba City Museum, newly built by our Yukinoshita Construction Company. The weather is so hot today, so I won't continue to say more. I hope that everyone will continue to support our Yukinoshita Construction Company in the future. Thank you."

Hearing Yukinoshita Yangino's words, the guests under the stage applauded. After all, in such hot weather, they really didn't want to stay outside any longer. Moreover, there were so many people waiting outside for the exhibition to officially begin, so they could enter the newly built City Museum and see the splendor of the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, one of the Three Sacred Treasures of the Sakura Province.

After Yukinoshita Yangino finished presiding over the ribbon-cutting ceremony and came down from the stage, she called Yukinoshita Yukino.

"Has the matter been resolved?"

"It's been resolved."

"Hmm?"

Yukinoshita Yangino noticed that Yukino's voice seemed a little tired, and even her breathing had become much heavier. She was slightly stunned at first, then a complex expression appeared on her face.

"Don't tell me... you wouldn't be..."

Yukinoshita Yukino on the other end of the phone was also stunned for a moment, and seemed a little surprised.

"How did you know, Sister?"

"Really! ?"

Hearing this, Yukinoshita Yangino's pupils directly dilated.

Her surprise wasn't so much about the fact that Yukino would have intimate behavior with Yexing, after all, Yangino knew Yexing's personality very well, and knew that this would happen sooner or later. Moreover, she, as the older sister, had even helped to fuel the flames.

The problem was...

Was Yukino this open before?

To admit this kind of thing so directly in broad daylight, and even on the phone?

Listening to Yukinoshita Yukino's panting, did it mean that they hadn't stopped yet, and were still continuing?

What did this mean?

Am I also a part of your two's play?

Was my younger sister Yukino this bold the first time she did this kind of thing?

"Really?"

Hearing her sister's shocked tone, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but frown, wondering if her awakening the ability of soul materialization was such a surprising thing.

Did she think she wasn't good enough? Did she think she couldn't face her true inner self, and wouldn't have such a realization?

"Yangino, you underestimate me too much."
