Genjin: I don't want to fall in love with Yae Gongji

Chapter 339 New Discovery
Hearing Paimon's words, Nacida felt something was wrong.

"Is that so? This is a bit strange. In theory, it should have awakened all your memories."

"How about trying again tomorrow, maybe the breakthrough is here." Ying suggested.

"Hmm! There is definitely something tricky, I must find a way to find out tomorrow!"

……

The next day, the two came to Nasida again and restored their memories.

"Let's go, try to go outside the city today."

"Well...um...where should I explain it to you?"

Seeing Paimon like this, Ying always felt that she wanted to say something.

"Huh? So what does Paimon want to say?"

"Traveller, in addition to the memory you just retrieved, there is an additional piece of information left for you."

"Additional information? Who left it for me?" Ying asked back, it couldn't be herself.

"You'll know it when you hear it."

Ying listened to the information coming from the Void Terminal.

[…There is no turning back…There are many [spaces] there, and [The Flower Goddess’s Birthday in Sumeru City] can only be one of them…]

"Is this...my own voice!?"

"Traveller, you should have a blank memory from two days ago. Let me tell you what happened."

So Paimon began to tell what happened two days ago.

They went to fulfill their plan, but found that they could not get out of Xumi City at all.

So at that time, he thought of a plan to climb over the wall and reach outside the city.

Paimon: [Hey! ?Why, are you leaving me? 】

Ying: [Leaving the city may cause memory changes, so we need to leave one person behind to witness. 】

Paimon: [But, if something goes wrong as expected and something happens to you outside, I... won't I be able to help you? 】

[Hmm...I know I can't help much, but we've always been together? 】

Ying: [Don’t worry, Paimon, if we go out together, there will be no difference from before. 】

Paimon: [Okay, I'll wait for you. 】

[Then come back quickly, take a look and come back soon! 】

Ying: [I know. 】

【Well, be careful! 】

……

Paimon: [Ah...memory...]

Ying: [Let’s go, try to go outside the city today. 】

Paimon: [Traveler!Woo... woo... woo...! ! ! 】

Ying: [What, what’s wrong!Paimon! 】

Paimon: [I thought I would never see you again!You suddenly disappeared! 】

[I have been waiting for you at the city wall for a long time, but you never came back!Didn’t you promise to come back after a good look?Wow...]

Ying: [What...have I decided? 】

Nacida: "Paimon, calm down. She is here now, and she looks like she doesn't understand."

[Woo... I don't care. I wanted to go out to find you yesterday, but you didn't let me leave the city before... I was confused, anxious and scared until night! 】

Ying: [I don’t know what I did, but I’m sorry... Paimon. 】

【I won’t really leave you behind. 】

Paimon: [...Ugh...Okay, I'll forgive you first. It's the best thing if you don't really disappear...I'm really afraid that you will suddenly go to another world. 】

Nasida: "Okay, then please ask Paimon to talk about your perspective, what really happened yesterday..."

Paimon recounted their plans yesterday.Nasida: "I see, using two people's different perspectives..."

[Later, the traveler arrived outside the city. It was obvious that my eyes had been chasing him, but his figure disappeared at a certain moment...]

[Are you reading that right? Is there something like being distracted? 】

【No, no, I've been dead—staring at you. 】

Nasida: "What about the traveler's perspective, are you sure you have no memory at all?"

【Yes, I didn't even know about yesterday's existence. 】

Nasida: "Now what happened before makes sense. The two times you tried to leave the city, there was no memory of that day at all and could not be recalled."

Paimon: [As long as we leave the city, will our memories be completely deleted? 】

Ying: [Not only are entry and exit to Xumi City prohibited, the memories of those who leave the city will also be deleted. 】

[It seems that there must be some secrets outside the city, deliberately hidden. 】

[But in this case, we will never know what is outside the city...]

Ying: 【If the memory will be deleted, what if something other than the memory can be left? 】

Paimon: [Such as leaving any information?But how to pass it back? 】

"Don't look at me like that, I... I'm not used to being stared at like this."

"Um... Okay, okay, you want a tool that can send messages, right? Give me some time, and in the meantime you can help me take care of Dina Zedei."

Paimon: [Yeah~ That's right. 】

As time passed, they obtained the void terminal transformed by Nasida, so they went outside the city again to see what happened.

……

"...The above is everything that has happened so far."

"So the message just now was the one I left behind after leaving the city?" Ying asked.

"That's right, despite the intermittent signal and interference, we still received two messages from you from outside the city."

"Okay, now that you understand what's going on, why don't you quickly release the message and listen to it?"

So Nasida broadcast the news from the Void Terminal to everyone.

[...There is no turning back...There are countless [spaces] there, and the one we are in is just one of them...]

[...entered another space...flowing sandstone, squealing fish, and impossible scenery...]

[...There are no people in all these spaces, or there are only taciturn dolls...the presence of humans cannot be felt...]

For this information, Paimon felt that it was quite big.

"The amount of information is so huge. Does it seem like you are outside this space once you leave Sumeru City?"

"But it looks completely normal from the inside of the city. It's incredible. Moreover, it sounds like the insides of other dimensions are very weird."

"There is another message here, which was received at night." Nasida said from the side, indicating that there is another message here.

[...Since this period of time, those spaces have been disappearing...being sucked away by the sun-like place in the sky...]

[[Beep——]...The last space has also disappeared...]

[... Behind me, many spaces appeared out of thin air... I figured it out!Those [spaces] are actually—]

The conversation stopped here.

"Ah... it's so abominable. Why is it broken at the back? What did the travelers at that time want to say? What is [space] actually?"

"It seems because [yesterday] ended just then."

"By the way, I just seemed to hear a void notification sound. Is it in reality or in a message?"

"It's in the message. It should be the sound made by the traveler's Void Terminal at that time." Nasida said that the source of the sound was the Void Terminal.

"After the prompt, the traveler said [the last space has disappeared]..."

"Traveller, what do you think [the last space] should be?" Nasida asked.
