"President, I'm currently in a room. Shika Kagura … Shika Kagura in her child form is sleeping on the bed."
Seiji put down the mirror and asked.
"If that's the case, what should I do? Should I wake her up? "
The voice didn't respond immediately.
"President?"
"I've thought about it." Only then did the voice speak up again. "It's not impossible to wake her up immediately, but I suggest that you look around first … are you able to leave that room?"
Seiji scanned his surroundings again.
"I don't see any doors … nor are there any windows."
"Then … go ahead and wake her up, but you need to be prepared," Summer Night told him in a serious tone.
"Prepared for what?" Seiji was confused.
At this moment, the little girl on the bed suddenly nodded and moved.
Seiji looked at her.
The young Shika Kagura, or Little Shi, slowly opened her eyes.
At this moment, all the toys in the room suddenly flew into the air!
Seiji felt an upward force and couldn't help but look up. He saw that the ceiling … had suddenly become incredibly far away!
Before he could widen his eyes in surprise, the world suddenly turned upside down!
He started falling towards the ceiling!
"Wahhh!!!" Seiji couldn't help but scream.
What kind of experience would it be to suddenly start bungee jumping?
Seiji's mind went blank!
He didn't know what was happening. Just as he calmed down slightly and was about to do something, the direction in which he was falling suddenly changed!
The room … or perhaps it should be said that the space that was originally a room suddenly became layered and overlapped in his field of vision. This completely defied the laws of physics. It was just like a kaleidoscope!
Countless dolls, building blocks, dolls, and other toys were flying everywhere, just like a kaleidoscope of colors spinning around him.
They suddenly enlarged, shrunk, distorted, changed into a different color, and returned to their original state …
Seiji first smashed into the face of a teddy bear doll, then smashed through a castle made of building blocks. Then, he grabbed onto a doll's long skirt, but the doll suddenly shrunk, so he couldn't grab onto it anymore. Seiji then fell into the mouth of a gigantic whale doll and was ejected from its back. Seiji smashed left and right amidst a large pile of distorted paintbrushes …
But surprisingly, it didn't hurt much.
He didn't know how much force he used to fall, but if he were to calculate it according to real physics, he should have been smashed into meat paste.
Mr. Newton's theorem is useless here. Who can go and press on his coffin?
After the initial shock, Seiji, who was still flying in the air, calmed down to the point that he had the energy to complain.
After another series of dazzling and indescribable spatial changes, he finally smashed onto the floor, and a large number of toys fell like raindrops.
Seiji slowly got up and reached over his head to knock away the toys that were still falling.
When he caught the last teddy bear, the room had completely returned to its original state … or was it a little bigger than before? He couldn't make an accurate comparison.
On the bed in front of him, Little Shi finally opened her eyes.
"Brother ~"
When she saw Seiji, she cried out in delight.
Then, she got up, ran two steps with her hands open, and threw herself into the boy's arms.
"Good morning, brother!"
She rubbed her cheeks a few times, then raised her cute little face, revealing an extremely cute smile.
Seiji seemed to be able to hear the sound of his reason being distorted.
So cute!!!
He had to chant pi in his heart to resist the bombardment of such a cute creature, and he struggled to maintain his psychological defense.
"Good morning, Little Shi."
Seiji smiled and greeted her as he tossed all the danger he had just experienced to the back of his head.
…
This was inside Shika Kagura's soul.
Her young form … Shika-chan was the incarnation of her spiritual sense.
In other words, Little Shi had the ability to affect the entire environment here. Her cognition, emotions, thoughts, and so on, could change everything around her.
But it wasn't control.
Just like how humans couldn't completely control their own bodies, humans couldn't completely control their souls either.
So, although Little Shi was powerful here, she couldn't control everything.
Seiji understood this with his own personal experience and Summer Night's explanation.
Now, he and Little Shi were in the room … in Little Shi's understanding, the living room of her "home," sitting together on the sofa, watching TV.
The TV was playing an old cartoon, and some clips were being replayed over and over again. It was not playing normally.
But Little Shi was enjoying it, and she didn't feel anything wrong at all.
It was like a dream.
In fact, she was indeed dreaming.
A beautiful dream about "home" and "brother" from a long time ago.
"Have you checked the entire house?" Summer Night's voice asked.
"Yes, I've checked everywhere, and I didn't find anything special," Seiji answered.
"Then … the spell isn't in this house … more accurately, it's not in this part of the soul structure," Summer Night muttered.
"Hmm …" Seiji looked at the window.
The window couldn't be opened, and it was pitch-black outside.
But from time to time, strange white shadows would flash by, and blood-red eyeballs would appear, staring at the house.
"If I can't find it in the house, then it can only be outside … but the situation outside doesn't look so good."
"Little Shi can only maintain the stability of the house, the part of the soul structure called 'home.'" Summer Night sighed. "In Little Shi's understanding, the outside of 'home' is unknown and dangerous, so it's dark and terrifying."
There was a moment of silence.
"What should I do?" Seiji asked for advice.
"Two choices." Natsuya paused for a moment. "The first way is for you to go outside by yourself. You can use the strength of your own spiritual sense and my assistance to investigate."
"Second, you can take Shika-chan with you. That way, she can help you, but in that case …"
"Then she might be harmed by the 'curse', right?"
"That's right, she'll take the risk."
Another moment of silence.
Seiji knew that this was the choice he had to make.
He looked at Little Shi.
The innocent and cute little girl was still watching TV, humming along with the characters in the anime, and occasionally doing some dance moves.
Should he take her away from this warm home and take the risk outside?
No …
Seiji made his decision.
"Little Shi."
"Hmm? What's the matter, brother? "The little girl turned her head and blinked her big eyes.
Seiji showed a gentle smile and reached out to stroke the little girl's head.
"I … have to go out for a while. Can you watch TV by yourself for a while?"
Little Shi slightly narrowed her eyes when her brother touched her head, but after hearing her brother's words, her eyes suddenly widened.
"Go out?"
"Hmm … just go outside for a while."
"… No."
Little Shi revealed a sad expression.
Her brows furrowed, her mouth pouted, and her eyes revealed a sad expression.
"I don't want brother to go out …"
Seeing this expression, Seiji felt a slight pain in his heart.
But he had to do this.
"I have something important to do, there's no other way … I'll be back soon."
"No!" Her voice suddenly rose.
The little girl approached him and reached out to hug him tightly.
"I don't want brother to go out … I don't want brother to go out!"
Her words were close to shouting, and there was a hint of weakness in them.
"Little Shi …" Seiji was moved.
"The last time brother went out … he was gone for so long … so long …"
Tears gushed out of the little girl's eyes.
"I waited for so long … so long … by myself … I'm so lonely … I'm so scared …"
She hugged him tightly, hugged him with all her might, and clung to him.
"It wasn't easy … Brother is finally back … I'm so happy … I want to be together forever …"
Tears streamed down her cheeks continuously.
"Don't go out! Brother … I'll be a good girl! I'll listen to everything brother says! As long as brother doesn't leave again … and doesn't let Little Shi be alone … "
"Wah …" The sound of crying rang out.
It echoed in the house.
