RPAGF Chapter 171 Mayuri Returns
Chapter 171 Mayuri Returns
Finally, Xue and Shiori, surrounded by a small group of fans, arrived at the general classification area of the doujin manga booth.
Then I saw the bunny girl Tohka who was shaking a speechless otaku crazily and the Yamai sisters who were maintaining order in the queue.
"Fate-chan, look, isn't that Tohka-sister, Yui-sister, and Yakuya-sister?"
"Hmm? It's indeed them. Let's go and say hello."
Looking at the two lolis walking towards the end of the team, Yui and Yakuya couldn't help but be stunned. After all, the comics they were selling were a little too early for these two little girls who were at most junior high school students.
However, before they could speak, they had already sensed the faint imaginary energy on Xue's body.
"Are you... Xue?" Yekuya was a little hesitant. After all, the age and temperament of the child in front of him who was cosplaying as Fate did not match Xue's.
It was Yuki's voice that answered Yakuya's hesitation.
"That's right, I have characters of all ages. By the way, I'm not a cosplayer, I'm half the real person."
"After all, in that world, I'm Fate-chan's original body, her sister, Alicia Testarossa. Please call me Alicia now."
Hearing Xue say this, the Yamai sisters were shocked.
"Shocked, could this person be...?" Yui guessed something about Nanoha who was beside Xue.
"Sister Yui, Sister Yakuya, it's me."
"You are Shiori after all..." Hearing the familiar voice, the Yamai sisters nodded blankly.
Like, very similar.
The two joined the team and inadvertently brought a lot of potential guests to Shidao's side.
“Two copies, please.”
"Okay...Nanoha and Fate?!" Looking at the two people in front of them who looked like anime characters, Shidou and Kotori all subconsciously ignored the imaginary energy on Yuki's body that was used to indicate her identity.
"Shido...?"
"Shidou-nii~"
After Xue spoke, everyone came back to their senses, their faces filled with shock.
"Xue, and Shiori?"
"Bingo, but don't call me Xue here. Call me Fate or my other real name, Alicia."
After hearing the real name and combining it with the outrageous setting of snow, the answer is already obvious.
"In that world, I am her biological sister."
Everyone's reaction immediately became similar to that of the Yamai sisters. Xue's move could be considered as her own act of frying fish.
"Eh? Isn't this Fate-chan and Nanoha-chan from before?!"
Ma Ji's pantyhose washing trio also came to the stall.
"Eh? Aren't these the two older sisters from before?"
Shiori, who had completely entered Nanoha mode, looked at the trio and greeted them with full energy.
In order to maintain Fate's somewhat introverted and cute personality, Xue just nodded softly.
"Hmm? Shiori, Alicia, do you know each other?"
Shidou, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel a little surprised that the two sides knew each other.
"I know them. They were the first group of older sisters who approached us today to take a photo together."
"That's it..."
"Hmm? Gohe, do you know these two cosplayers?"
The trio were also curious about the relationship between Yuki, Shiori, and Shido.
“Ah, they actually…”
Before Shidao could finish his words, Maria, who was helping him, had already made up an absolutely reasonable semi-fake identity for Xue and Shiori.
"They are actually the nieces of me, Junna, and Rinne. They are the children of our sister."
"Eh! Is this true?!" The trio's pupils trembled.
"Guaranteed." Ju Nai said this without any panic on his face.
"Huh?" Erya seemed to have noticed the movement over here. He turned his head and immediately had the same expression as everyone else when they first saw him.
"It's Nanoha and Fate! Amazing, they're so similar!"
"It's me and my daughter. Just call me Alicia now."
Hearing the voice that suddenly echoed in his mind, Erya reacted and his expression became a little strange.
As a cartoonist with a wild imagination, Erya has already guessed the identity of Xue with this appearance.
"Xiaoxue, in that world, you are Fate's sister, her Primarch Alicia Testarossa?"
The one who answered Erya was Xuena and Fate's identical smile.
"You're amazing! After the competition between me and the boy is over, I want to take a photo with you and your daughter."
"Of course, you're welcome anytime."
After staying at the stall for a while, Xue and Shiori left and continued to wander around the venue. After all, they had said that they would not participate in the competition between the two sides.
Although I seem to have participated in it ()
As they were strolling around, it was already dusk. The otakus ended their satisfying day and started to go home one after another.
After saying goodbye to the last fan, Xue and Shiori did not immediately go to meet up with Shidou and the others, but quietly waited for the inevitable reversal of Niana.
The DEM Society's micro-imaging device sealed Erya's desperate memory. Although she could destroy it, destroying it rashly would only cause her to reverse prematurely.
As for directly erasing the memory, I don't have that right. No matter how torturous and painful that memory is, it is Erya's own memory after all.
Finally, outside the venue, a huge reversal of spiritual power erupted, causing a space earthquake.
Seeing this, Xue opened the barrier and transformed back to her original form as the "Saint", while Shiori also fully activated and upgraded again, controlling imaginary energy, comparable to the eternal brilliance of a complete Herrscher.
The two nodded to each other, tearing through space and reaching the location of the reversed spiritual power.
"Alan Mira Masas, your opponent is me!"
The space shattered, and Xue descended from the sky holding a holy spear that was shining with a faint golden light, and directly hit Westcott's secretary, the strongest magician of DEM, by surprise.
"What!" After discovering the figure on the snow above his head, Alan quickly dodged and barely avoided the attack.
"Are you... the elf 'Saint' who attacked the laboratory?"
"Snow!"
"So the Saint is also from your side?"
Seeing how familiar Shidou and Xue seemed to be, Allen seemed to understand something.
"Ms. Allen, don't be distracted. Distraction can kill you."
Xue's cold and teasing voice brought Allen back to his senses. He was not paying attention and was knocked dozens of meters away by Xue.
Shaking his arms that were hurt by the shock, Allen knew that DEM had misjudged the danger level of the "Saint".
"Ike, the situation has changed. The power of the Saint is far greater than we anticipated."
"…I see."
Somewhere in the room, Westcott's face changed involuntarily. He never expected that Xue would come and disrupt the situation without anyone noticing.
But even so, he did not change his plan. He was determined to get the Reverse Spirit Crystal today.
"Artemisia, seize the Reversal Spirit Crystal and retreat immediately."
Upon receiving the order, a girl named Artemisia descended from the sky, creating a huge wave that knocked Shidou and Kotori, who had just managed to regain some of their sanity, away.
She held the sword in both hands and went straight for Erya, then...
"You wish." The door to the imaginary space suddenly opened, and Shiori rushed out. The blades of her wrist armor crossed, forming an unbreakable imaginary barrier, which directly forced Artemisia to give up the attack and keep some distance.
"who are you?"
"The mage of the "Apocalypse Chaser," Shiori Testarossa."
"Shiori?!" Shidou and Kotori stood up and looked at the girl in front of them wearing white light armor, with black hair and red eyes, and were extremely surprised.
"'Apocalypse Chaser'? An organization I've never heard of. Are you going to side with them and become an enemy of DEM?"
Artemisia's answer was Shiori, who instantly approached with a heavy fist wrapped in purple lightning.
"What?!!"
Violet
"Eternity thunderous!"
The violent power of thunder was released in an instant. Artemisia barely managed to block it with the sword in her hand, but the countless lightning silently paralyzed her nerves, making her temporarily unable to move, and she was captured alive by Shiori.
"I'll give you a chance, get out now."
After easily destroying Allen's equipment with the power of erosion, Xue and Shiori left the two people who had lost their combat ability together and issued an ultimatum to DEM.
"otherwise…"
Xue raised the holy spear, her hair color turned from white to gold, her pupils turned from gold to pink and purple, and four pure white wings spread out behind her.
Looking at the changes in the snow, Shidou opened his eyes wide. It can't be true...!
"Show off your new look, Thunder Temple "Cherubim"!"
Spiritual energy gathered in the sky, transforming into a new Thunder Temple that was different from the past, more powerful and beautiful.
The original pitch-black sphere had disappeared, replaced by a golden holy sword with four wings spread out.
"Although it's a little different, that thing is definitely..."
"Mayuri's Thunder Temple..."
Everyone, including Qingxing Erya, seemed to have finally reacted, their faces filled with unconcealable surprise.
In the darkness, Westcott looked at the sacred golden angel hanging high in the sky and fell silent.
Reversing the Spirit Crystal? With the other party's ability, let alone the Reversing Spirit Crystal, if she wanted to, there would be no way for him to leave here today.
In order to fulfill his long-cherished wish, Westcott decided to retreat temporarily.
"…I see."
"clear."
Through the communication device left by Xue and Shiori, Allen and Artemisia received the order to retreat.
The influence of the imaginary thunder ended, Artemisia regained her ability to move, and left everyone's sight without looking back while holding Alan.
After watching the two of them leave, Xue separated the spirit crystal in her body, allowing Mayuri to appear in front of everyone using her own body.
However, Xue still didn't take off the same outfit as Mayuri, after all, it was quite fun.
"Mayuri, is it really you...?"
At this moment, Shidao couldn't believe his eyes. Mayuri, who had disappeared, appeared in front of him just like a dream.
"Yes, it's true, Shidou, I'm back."
Mayuri chuckled, but as she laughed, her eyes unconsciously became moist.
"Well, welcome..." Before Shidou could finish his words, Mayuri hugged him directly.
For a moment, everyone, including Erya, kept silent, not wanting to break the beauty of the moment.
After a long time, the two let go of each other, and everyone finally had the opportunity to raise their doubts.
"Um, Mayuri, why did you suddenly appear here?"
"That... Shidou, you should ask Yuki."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to Xue, who was now holding a lollipop in her mouth and whose appearance and temperament were very similar to Mayuri.
"This? Because we are essentially the same person."
"Huh?" Everyone was puzzled. What does it mean that it's the same person?
"You can simply think of the two of us as having a dual personality."
"Although Mayuri has her own independent personality, from a soul level, she is a special incarnation of me and a part of me."
"That's probably the relationship between us."
After hearing what Xue said, except for Shiori, Nanashi, Nia and the Yamai sisters who really understood, the others nodded as if they understood, and continued to try to understand what Xue meant.
Seeing this, Xue didn't say anything. After all, it was really difficult to make them understand this kind of thing directly.
"Wait a minute, Yuki, doesn't that mean Mayuri is considered my, Maria's, and Rinne's older sister?!"
After finally figuring out the whole thing, Junai realized something and his expression turned a little strange.
"Correction aside, she's Rinne's younger sister, you and Maria's older sister."
"...My mind is a little confused, let me take it easy."
Ju Nai was fine, and she barely accepted the reality that she had a new sister, but Ju Ya was still a little bit unprepared. It was too exciting to suddenly have another sister.
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Anyway, Mayuri is definitely back."
……
As night fell, in order to celebrate Mayuri's return, everyone including Niya started the popular party again.
Because of the number of people, the gathering place was chosen to be the Elf Apartment.
Shidou, Xue, Rinne, Maria, and Juna were working at full speed in the kitchen, preparing all kinds of delicious food.
Mayuri, who had obtained some of Yuki's cooking memory, also wanted to help, but was rejected by everyone who was cooking. How could they let today's protagonist do it himself?
So Mayuri had to chat with others in the living room, and at the same time look after her niece Rinno and her nominal half-daughter Shiori.
It doesn’t take a long time to cook delicious food, after all, there is Xue, who can control time at will.
Even dishes that require a lot of time can be easily prepared in a very short time.
After a while, all the dishes were served and the party began.
Everyone was enjoying the delicious food, chatting and laughing, feeling very comfortable.
