Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, Kuang San and Shimono were stunned. Obviously, they had never heard Fangzheng mention this before. Therefore, when they heard Fangzheng mention that he was going to leave, they couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Leave ….. this world?"
"That's right."
Fangzheng nodded and turned to the two.
"You should know that I'm not from this world. In fact, I'm from another world. In that world, I encountered a little trouble, so I lost my power. In order to find my power and to find a way back, I've been traveling between different worlds …. "
"Then, then I want to go to your world with you, Mr. Fangzheng …. Can't I?"
"Let me finish first."
Seeing that Shimono couldn't wait to speak, Fangzheng hurriedly raised his hand.
"There's a reason why I said that. If there were no elves in this world, it would still be a very peaceful world. At the very least, Shimono, you should be able to live the daily life you want. But it's different in my world. If you leave with me, you'll have to face many enemies. In my world, Order and Chaos are currently at war. The demons in Hell and the gods in Heaven are also entangled. Although it's generally peaceful for now, no one knows when a war will break out. When that time comes, it won't be a petty battle like the one between the AST and the elves. On the contrary, it will be a catastrophe that will sweep through the entire continent. Tens of thousands of people will die in a single war. Corpses will be strewn everywhere, and blood will flow like rivers …. "
"Ugh …."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's description, Shimono's face turned pale, while Kuang San raised his brows in surprise.
"But words are no proof. Let me show you."
Fangzheng said, activating his personal terminal. Shortly after, the scene of a war appeared before them. That was the scene where Fangzheng led his men to battle the Chaos Creatures in the north. Back then, Fangzheng thought that it was the Tendo Temple's first intervention in the main world, so he recorded it. And now … it was the perfect opportunity for the two Elves to broaden their horizons.
"Woah …"
Kuang San widened his eyes in shock at the projection of the horrifying, distorted monster army, as well as the Holy Knights and young ladies fighting against them. Just as Fangzheng had said, this world was still very peaceful. Even the Kuang San only faced enemies like AST and Magician. This was the first time she had seen such a large-scale battle involving tens of thousands of people.
"Eek — —!"
The strange and horrifying appearance of the Chaos Creatures naturally scared the hell out of Shiono. Moreover, Fangzheng didn't care about the review committee, so there were naturally many images of Chaos Creatures attacking the Holy Knights, eating them, or tearing them into pieces. Without any cover, the cruelty of war was displayed at this moment. Even Kuang Three had to put away the smile on his face as he stared at the scene in front of him with a solemn expression. Not to mention the kind-hearted Sennai, who didn't like to fight in the first place.
"This is the situation in my world."
Seeing how Itono was trembling in fear, Fangzheng switched off the projection in a timely manner. Otherwise, Itono would probably be frightened out of his wits.
"Although everything is peaceful in my territory, I have many enemies, and some of them are very powerful. However, I also have many enemies, and some of those enemies are extremely powerful. They are existences that I alone cannot defeat. Otherwise, I wouldn't have lost my power and come here. When I return, I will fight my enemies again. When that happens, my territory may also be engulfed in the flames of war. "
This was the reason why Fangzheng made it clear to Shiono. He realized that Shiono was a complete pacifist who disliked fighting. No matter if it was self-defense or attack, Shiono couldn't do it. But if she were to return to the main world, even if Fangzheng didn't require Shiono to be aggressive, she must at least have the conviction and willpower to protect her life.
Judging from this point, Xia Shi and the others' willpower to fight was much stronger than Shiono's. After all, the Tendo Temple was their hard-earned home, so of course they were willing to fight to protect their home.
But if there were no Elves in this Elf World, it would be much more peaceful than the main world that Fangzheng was in. According to Shiono's personality, this world was obviously more suitable for her. After all, if the Elves didn't exist, then AST and Magician naturally wouldn't exist either. In that case, Shiono wouldn't encounter any danger and wouldn't need to fight. She would be able to live the peaceful and stable life that she hoped for.
That was why Fangzheng made it clear to Shiono in advance. After all, he wasn't a human trafficker. He had to make things clear in advance. In any case, Shiono must have a sufficient understanding of this before making a decision. After all, if she left this world this time, she would never be able to come back.
"… So, I hope you can think about it carefully before you answer. After all, if I take you away from this world, you won't be coming back. You'll leave this place forever and never be able to return to this world. "
Hearing Fangzheng's answer, Kuang San didn't show any reaction. She even raised her eyebrows with a hint of anticipation. For Kuang San, she had nothing else in this world except for revenge. Under such circumstances, if she could leave this world, it wouldn't be a bad thing for Kuang San.
But for Shiono ….. the situation was completely different.
Sure enough, Shiono soon frowned and thought about it with a sad face. Originally, Shiono only wanted to be with Fangzheng. She didn't think too much about other things. In Shiono's opinion, Fangzheng would always protect and take care of her. But now, Fangzheng told her that if she continued to stay by his side, she would probably have to face danger and fight ….
Shiono didn't like fighting. She didn't like being hurt, and she naturally didn't like hurting others. But ideals were beautiful, but reality was cruel. The video that Fangzheng played before had already shown the cruelty and horror of war. This was obviously very difficult for Shiono to accept.
From this point of view, Fangzheng's proposal was obviously not bad for Shiono. She would lose her memory and live the life she wanted as an ordinary human again. She would no longer remember Kuang San, Fangzheng, nor would she remember elves and battles. She just needed to live a leisurely and peaceful life as usual.
But ….. did she really have to do this?
Shiono clenched her hands and stared at the ground in front of her. She bit her lip and remained silent.
Fangzheng and Kuang San didn't say anything either. This was Shiono's own choice, and she had to make the decision herself. Neither Fangzheng nor Kuang San could make a choice for Shiono. After all, this was a journey to a new world after leaving this world.
Time ticked by. When the light of the setting sun disappeared from the window and night fell, Shiono took a deep breath and looked up at Fangzheng.
"I … I've decided, Mr. Fangzheng …. I want to continue to be with Mr. Fangzheng …. I, I want to go to the new world too!"
Fangzheng wasn't surprised by Shiono's answer. He just looked at her quietly.
"When I go back, I may have a lot of things to deal with. I can't stay by your side like now."
"It's okay …. I can endure it if I'm alone."
"Maybe someone you don't know will come to trouble you or even attack you."
"I'll try my best …. I'll try my best not to let them succeed!"
"Maybe I'll use your strength to participate in the battle. Is that okay?"
"Hmm …."
This time, Shiono finally hesitated for a moment, but she still nodded.
"I … I'm willing to help Brother Fangzheng …. Although I don't like fighting … I think Brother Fangzheng's enemies must be bad people …. If we don't stop them, they'll definitely make more people suffer, so …."
What kind of answer was that …. But it was indeed in line with Shiono's way of thinking.
"It seems that you've made your decision."
Hearing Shiono's answer, Fangzheng stood up and stretched out his hand. Soon after, a dazzling light appeared in Fangzheng's hand. Following that, the light gradually condensed into two transparent, pentagonal crystal-like spirit stones.
"What's this …?"
"These are soul stones …. If you're willing, reach out and hold them. That way, your everything, even your soul, will belong to me. We'll be together forever."
"Ah …."
Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Kitono's eyes. She stood up, walked to Fangzheng, and carefully sized up the soul stone before her. Then, she glanced at Kuang San beside her.
"What about Sister Kuang San?"
"… I don't have a choice, do I? Besides, I'm very interested in the new world you mentioned, Mr. Fangzheng. "
Facing Shiono's question, Kuang San answered with a smile. The two looked at each other, then stretched out their hands to hold the soul stones suspended in front of them.
