Chapter 939: Final - 2

Chapter 939: Final Chapter 2

That is the supreme spiritual power she has been bestowed.

In Mikko’s original world, this power could already crush all divine powers on Earth. Purely in terms of the quality and quantity of spiritual energy, it closely rivals Kikyo... Of course, referring to the former blank slate of the witch, not the current witch status.

Otherwise, the degree of enhancement would be too frightening.

At least Gu Mo couldn’t achieve this; if he could effortlessly elevate an ordinary person to that level, he would have been a deity long ago.

However, it is precisely this powerful spiritual power that allows the girl’s consciousness to conduct a macro-level observation on the scale of world lines, seeing the changes on a planetary scale. Without this strong spiritual power to be consumed on her behalf, she would need to overdraft her own life force and spiritual power to complete this process.

The short observation allowed her eyes to traverse the long river of time, seeing the end of humanity and even the planet.

She also discovered the flaw in the "Pseudo-Infinite Tsukuyomi," causing the world-scale illusion mapped on the moon to collapse through the strong observer effect...

"Is it like this..."

Yatsugaya Miko struggled to pull the corners of her lips, forcing out a smile, but her gaze couldn’t help but frequently drift towards the fox elf opposite, full of doubt and uncertainty in her pearl-like pupils.

What’s going on?

Isn’t she dreaming? Or is she still in a dream?

"I know you have a lot of confusion right now, but don’t worry, I’ll explain it to you slowly." Seemingly seeing through Mikko’s thoughts, the young man sitting opposite spoke calmly, "Speaking of which, this also needs to consider your opinion, Mikko, regarding... how to handle the issue of your world."

"Wh-what?"

Wide-eyed and bewildered, the black-haired girl didn’t quite understand what he meant.

"Let’s eat something first; you eat while I talk... This is Tamamo no Mae’s specialty." Gu Mo blinked and pointed at the food on the table, while also weighing his next words.

The fox elf girl sitting nearby squinted her eyes and snorted nonchalantly; she didn’t want to cook for this girl. But she especially didn’t want Master to cook for her, even though Master himself wasn’t bothered, yet she felt compelled to stop such things.

"Al-alright..."

Facing Miss Fox Spirit’s intense, aggressive gaze, Yatsugaya Miko nodded reluctantly, feeling the overwhelming presence of this woman.

However...

Isn’t this gaze just a bit too unfriendly?

The young girl, who hadn’t experienced romance and hadn’t had a boyfriend, was unaware of the vigilance contained within that gaze.

......

...

Unconsciously, the sun seemed to have shifted significantly from its midday position, moving noticeably westward.

The conversation in the pavilion was nearing its end.

Yatsugaya Miko held the cup with both hands, opening her mouth several times but unsure of what to say. Her condition had eased considerably; her body no longer felt heavy and fatigued, her energy seemed to be rapidly recovering, but the strange impact on her spirit wasn’t negligible compared to the physical sensations.

"Is this... already another world?"

Steeling herself and recollecting a moment, the black-haired girl cautiously asked the person opposite, using an uncertain tone.

"Yes..."

"The Mind Industry, Demon Exorcist, all those things, are... creations of yours, teacher?"

"Yes..."

"Then... I can’t return to my world over there?"

"It’s not that you can’t return; Mikko, you can actually go back anytime. The main issue is dealing with certain matters, otherwise, it would be a bit problematic..." Gu Mo shook his head, pointing out the places Mikko hadn’t yet grasped, "Mikko, you’re different now..."

"Your observation ability is extremely powerful, your cognition will begin to influence outcomes."

"This... this... I don’t quite understand."

Uneasy grasping the cup, the girl opened her mouth again, her expression slightly frantic. Even though Gu Mo had been completely open with her during the conversation, explaining everything and patiently elucidating related theories and domains—

Telling her why it was like this.

Including why such situations arose, why these things could be done.

Yet, everything was still too incredible; facing such a strange and mysterious domain, she couldn’t naturally and immediately accept it all, feeling as though her mind was in a fog, unable to think clearly.

What to do? What should she do? Unconsciously, she clenched her fingers, feeling a pressure and urgency difficult to describe.

"Take your time, don’t be too anxious; you have plenty of time to make decisions. Meanwhile, time in your world will be entirely suspended; I’ve preserved it well..."

Gu Mo blinked, speaking gently to reassure her.

If he wished to retain the world he created, he certainly needed the girl’s cooperation... However, he preferred not to pressure her nor affect her judgement. Before, his actions could benefit that world.

But now, the rampant evil spirits issue has been resolved in a different form—

So retaining a Mind Industry seems unnecessary.

Therefore, he decided to let Mikko make her own decisions.

"Thank you, teacher..." Mikko seemed to sigh in relief, nodding lightly, but her gaze was drawn to the large magic guidebook on the table at this moment, hesitating slightly: "Is the passage back to the other world in here?"

"..."

"..."

"...Why do you think that?" Gu Mo raised an eyebrow, asking with interest.

"I-Isn’t the vortex on this page a passage?" Mikko pursed her lips, pointing at the page of the open book, in the center of which was a glowing vortex, akin to an interdimensional gateway, more splendid and dazzling than any special effects.

As a trendy high school girl, she naturally thought of dimensional doors and teleportation magic.

After all, it looked like the vortex led to another dimension.

"...You can see it?"

Gu Mo raised an eyebrow, revealing a curious expression.

This book was likely left by Zi, her continual failures probably made her impatient, so she left the magic guidebook behind and went back to Fantasy Land to relax... But now, Mikko says she sees phenomenon similar to a space-time vortex on these pages?

Wait—

He suddenly had a thought.

Whether science or mystery, there’s a principle... if it’s observable, then it can be influenced; if it’s influenceable, then it can be controlled.

Observe, influence, control... it’s gradual!
