"It's truly surprising, yet undeniable."
Kikyo, who had always been as calm as still water, couldn't help but reveal a look of astonishment as she gazed at her game panel.
"Because I'm already dead and my body is a clay sculpture made of pottery, is my physique attribute very low?"
Even when she was teleported to an unfamiliar place,
Kikyo wasn't surprised, nor did she have any desire to explore; she merely instinctively gathered various pieces of information.
But she never expected that
this world called Reincarnation Game claimed to be able to fulfill all wishes.
Even after knowing Naraku's conspiracy and all the truth, she didn't hesitate to turn and leave, without a hint of reluctance.
Inuyasha already had a new companion by his side, Kagome Higurashi; even if he showed the deepest pain and reluctance, Kikyo would not be moved.
She was that kind of person.
Born with immense spiritual power, destined to become a Miko to protect humanity, everything she did while alive was to shoulder the responsibility of her spiritual power.
It wasn't her own responsibility.
It wasn't until Inuyasha appeared and they became entangled that Kikyo descended from her lofty position as a goddess in a temple, entering the mortal world and gaining a touch of human warmth.
She found not the responsibility of a Miko or a goddess, but the responsibility belonging to Kikyo as a human.
However,
she was already dead. In her view, the dead should return to the netherworld and should not have any extravagant hopes for the future.
Her belief in continuing to live, as she had not yet died, was to find Naraku and exact revenge.
"What if I want to live on?"
No one wants to die; even the lonely Kikyo wanted to find the meaning of life.
Reincarnation Game was like a ray of hope suddenly appearing in a completely dark world, making her involuntarily want to believe and try.
Even if it was fake, it would just mean sinking completely into darkness.
Therefore,
Kikyo was the earliest among the four new players to believe and be willing to take action to undergo the novice trial.
"The trial is about to begin. Does anyone want to withdraw?"
Kikyo looked up,
She looked at Este's and Erza, finally settling her gaze on Anya.
The ordinary human girl with mind-reading abilities seemed, by all appearances, to be the weakest and most likely to give up on the trial.
Anya timidly asked, "Big Sister Kikyo, will you protect Anya?"
She loved adventure,
She especially loved the adventure plots in spy TV dramas, but if it was too dangerous, she could only choose to give up.
After all, even with mind-reading abilities, Anya was just an ordinary child.
"Anya loves adventure, so she wants to go on the trial, but Anya is weak, Anya is useless..."
Anya, with her mind-reading abilities, could perceive everyone's thoughts,
Therefore, although she was young, she possessed a maturity of mind that surpassed many.
What was most commendable was that
Even after listening to countless darkness, Anya still maintained her kindness and vitality, without losing hope in the world, nor did she fall into becoming a dark Anya.
Anya didn't want to give up this adventure, so she lifted her head, her eyes full of starry anticipation, and sincerely said, "Anya wants to go on an adventure, and I can give all the reward points to Big Sister Kikyo, Big Sister Este's, and Big Sister Erza..."
"You foolish brat, adventure is a very dangerous thing!"
Erza controlled her strength and gently tapped her on the head.
Just a light touch made Anya roll on the ground in pain.
Anya's eyes welled up with tears,
She craved adventure and excitement, partly due to a child's curiosity.
But a larger reason was her desire to discover new worlds.
Anya was born from a secret experiment, which is why she possesses mind-reading abilities.
The organization treated her as an experiment, as an anomaly; after escaping the organization, she was treated as an anomaly by the children and director of the Orphanage.
She was adopted by families one after another, and likewise returned as an anomaly.
Mind-reading ability,
It was not only her weapon for self-protection but also a double-edged sword that stripped her of her human qualifications.
It wasn't until she was adopted by Twilight and Yor, a spy and an assassin, both types of anomalies who couldn't openly exist in the ordinary human world, that Anya was finally accepted and felt a long-lost warmth.
But even so, Twilight and Yor couldn't fully understand Anya.
Suddenly teleported into the Reincarnation Game and seeing people like Erza who also had special abilities, Anya's heart stirred.
She truly didn't want to say goodbye to them.
"What a cute Anya. If she were whipped, she'd probably cry very loudly, wouldn't she?"
Este's looked down from above, her gaze fervent as she watched Anya,
She was a battle maniac, not a killer.
It was only her cruel methods towards enemies and countless years of growth that cultivated her S&M personality.
Seeing a beautiful little girl like Anya, she couldn't help but want to gently torment her, provided Anya's life wasn't endangered.
"Big Sister Este's, you're so scary..."
Anya, scared, quickly hid behind the kindest-looking Kikyo.
She had just read Este's thoughts, and Este's wanted to use a whip to strike her delicate bottom.
It was truly terrifying.
Kikyo softly asked, "Anya, adventure requires being prepared to die. Can you really do it?"
In her era,
Even young children had to experience crises and hardships; everyone fought against monsters and chaotic armies with a determination to die.
"Anya can!"
Anya rarely showed a serious expression, saying, "Even as a child, Anya wants to help her family!"
She could see through it,
Twilight, who adopted her, was actually hiding his identity; sending her to a noble academy was to legitimately approach high-ranking officials of the country.
Both father and mother had goals.
Once their goals were achieved, the hard-won happy family would likely fall apart, and Anya would very likely be sent back to the Orphanage again.
Even with this fragile sense of insecurity,
But she was still grateful to Twilight and Yor for bringing her warmth. If she could repay them, it would be by gaining powerful strength like Mama Yor through her beloved adventures, and then helping them.
This was Anya's idea.
"What about Erza?"
Kikyo picked up Anya, who was flustered from Este's gaze, and turned to look at Erza.
Erza nodded and said, "I want to investigate deeper information about the Reincarnation Game, and then return to inform Fairy Tail."
Being able to silently teleport herself, an S-class Mage, over here,
Erza felt uneasy before she understood the truth.
If it were an evil faction,
Then such an ability to travel through time, teleport at will, and toy with lives would be far more dangerous than all the dark guilds on the continent combined.
"Este's?"
Kikyo's gaze finally fell on Este's.
She didn't particularly like such a battle maniac; in the Warring States Period she lived in, such people often had hands stained with blood and slaughter.
However, since they were new players teleported together,
Facing an unfamiliar environment and unknown dangers, acting together was the best option.
"Of course I'll take the trial. How could I back down from such an interesting hunt?"
Este's licked the corner of her mouth and said, "Moreover, I really want to know who created this game. If I could challenge him, it would surely be incredibly exciting, wouldn't it?"
"However, I don't plan to act with you all."
In her mind,
Only the weakest danger beasts and human tribes would act together; truly powerful predators would only act alone.
Before Kikyo could continue speaking,
Este's arms had already reached out, extended into the burning fire, and her figure vanished as a faint glow.
"In that case, let's act together, shall we?"
Erza calmly watched Este's disappear, with no intention of stopping her.
Kikyo also wasn't the type of person who would try to change others' minds.
Anya, remembering the thought of being whipped on the bottom, dared not speak to stop her even more.
Erza frowned and asked, "Who will be the leader?"
Normally, an S-class Mage like her would have no problem leading a team.
However, Kikyo's strength was also not weak, and she was from another world. If she were to command tactics rashly, problems would be more likely to arise.
Likewise,
Kikyo also didn't understand magic abilities.
Kikyo looked at the pink-haired little girl held tightly in her arms and said, "How about letting Anya be the leader?"
Before Erza could express her confusion,
Kikyo explained, "Anya has a mind-reading ability, which allows her to peek into our minds. This ability is most suitable for a commander."
Erza was stunned at first, then quickly realized.
She hadn't spoken her name at all, yet Anya could call it out directly.
"Waku waku?"
Anya's eyes turned into stars, feeling a bit dizzy.
She was the leader?
After thinking it over, Erza felt that having mind-reading abilities would indeed allow for better cooperation, so she nodded.
"Big Sister Erza, Big Sister Kikyo!"
Anya excitedly waved her arms and exclaimed, "Anya Squad, prepare to depart!"
