A dimensional journey starting from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 534 527. Can you take off the virtual mask at any time?

"Orihime...do you really not remember me?"

Looking at the girl struggling in his hands, Kyon said hoarsely, "It's me... Orihime."

"Who are you……"

Listening to the monster repeatedly calling her name, Inoue Orihime raised her head in confusion.

Then, she saw the familiar facial contour beneath the broken mask.

Although it was only part of it, she would never admit it wrong, because this was—her brother!

"elder brother……"

she shouted hesitantly.

"Yes, it's me..."

Kyon gently placed Inoue Orihime on the ground with gentle movements.

"You really haven't forgotten me..."

"Why?"

Inoue Orihime stretched out her hand to touch her brother's face, but she hesitated. Looking at her brother who looked like this, she was full of doubts, "Brother, why...why did it become like this? Why do you want to do this to me?" Xiaogui, do you want to do something?"

"Do you even need to ask?"

As soon as Arisawa Ryuki's name was mentioned, Kyon's tone immediately became fierce, "Because she wants to separate me from you! No, it's not just her! There is also that boy named Kurosaki Ichigo!"

"Ah?" Inoue Orihime was a little confused.

"After I died, you prayed for me every day," Xu's hoarse voice kept mumbling like he was dreaming, "I have been watching you. I am very happy, very happy. Although I am dead, because I have With your prayers, I think everything can be saved... But - everything changed a year later! You made friends with that girl!"

Kyon pointed angrily at Arizawa Ryuki, who was frozen in place and nervously looking around the room but couldn't see anything.

"Since then, you have prayed for me less and less! Then you went to high school and met Kurosaki Ichigo! Then - you finally stopped praying for me! Whether it was before going out or... When I got home, all you mentioned in front of my memorial tablet was the name 'Kurosaki'! Do you know how lonely I feel when you see my place in your heart gradually disappearing!?"

"No! Not like that, brother!"

Inoue Orihime waved her hands in panic, trying to explain.

She just wanted her brother to know that she was alive and well...that she had come out of her grief...

She just felt that her brother would like to see her smiling face more, so she worked hard to live...

That's all.

But the other party fell into madness without giving her time to explain.

The raging murderous intent enveloped the entire room.

"So lonely... so lonely... so lonely... I have wanted to... kill you... all of you... several times!"

“Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill—”

"no, do not want……"

Looking at her frantic brother in front of her, Inoue Orihime shed anxious tears.

She wanted to stop it, but found that she could do nothing.

"No...my brother...will never do this!"

"Click——"

As if in response to her call, a broken sound sounded.

The sudden sound made Arisawa Ryukiya, who was looking around nervously, turn his head in surprise.

Then, she saw something unbelievable.

"Asshole, is this how you treat your sister?"

Angry voices came from the broken void.

She saw a pair of hands tearing apart space.

Then, right in front of her, the whole world seemed to shatter.

"Please, no matter who you are, please save her!!"

When his attention was completely attracted by the broken void, Arizawa Ryuki seemed to hear Orihime's voice in a daze.

She turned her head subconsciously.

But all he saw was Orihime lying unconscious on the ground, and an empty and normal room.

"So, what's going on?"

Arizawa Ryuki has no idea what an illusion is.

Is it Orihime's voice? Or is it the broken void behind her at this moment?

Just when he was confused, a strong wind roared behind him.

She felt as if a shadow was passing by her.

Hearing this angry roar, Orihime Inoue turned her head in despair.

She saw a figure, stretched out her hand and pressed her 'brother''s mask against the wall.

boom--

After the deafening crash, smoke and dust filled the air.

"Cough cough cough cough——"

"what happened?"

Ryuki Arisawa tried his best to open his eyes in the smoke, as if he wanted to see the figure in the smoke clearly.

But with a 'bang', a bouquet of 'fireworks' exploded in front of her, and then she lost consciousness and fell down.

Kuchiki Rukia caught Arizawa Ryuki's fallen body and checked that there were no serious injuries on the other party's body. She breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon her heart was in her throat again.

"Isn't that guy too messy?"

She frowned and looked at the man who rushed out of the wall with Xu.

This guy has a human body now! To actually make such a big noise.

"Ichigo, go and help! Quick fight!"

Helplessly, Rukia Kuchiki could only direct Ichigo Kurosaki to rush up to help, and the problem must be solved in the shortest possible time so as not to be seen by too many people. If you see too many people, it will be troublesome to handle the matter.

"Kuro... Kurosaki-san? Kuchiki-san?"

"!?"

Kurosaki Ichigo, who was about to take action, stopped when he heard a familiar voice.

"Inoue, how can you... see me?"

His pupils shrank sharply.

Rukia told him that under normal circumstances, ordinary people cannot see the God of Death, and that man is a complete exception.

Facts have proved that this is indeed the case. When he returned to school in the state of death, only that man could see him among so many people in the classroom.

But now Inoue can actually see him...

Death is a spirit, and to see it one must also be a spirit.

In other words... Inoue is now a ghost! ?

"Leave this to me, don't worry, the chain on her chest has not been broken yet, she can be saved!"

Kuchiki Rukia saw Kurosaki Ichigo's hesitant look and hurried forward.

"Wait...wait...what are you going to do?"

Inoue Orihime looked at Kurosaki Ichigo's weird outfit with a knife in his hand, and asked hesitantly.

"Don't worry, Inoue, I will defeat that monster soon, and you will forget these terrible things."

Saying this, Kurosaki Ichigo raised his sword and was about to jump out of the room.

"etc!"

For some reason, Inoue got rid of Kuchiki Rukia's care and shouted desperately at Kurosaki Ichigo.

"Brother...that's...my brother!!"

Inoue Orihime was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Brother, he... wants to kill us... Brother, he... wants to be killed... Brother, he... Brother, he..."

She began to speak incoherently.

"!!?"

Kurosaki Ichigo stopped again. He clenched his teeth and looked struggling. He felt the Zanpakutō in his hand tightly and his veins were exposed.

"hateful!"

Rukia Kuchiki hugged Inoue Orihime tightly, who was about to rush out, with an expressionless face.

The worst happened anyway.

They want to eliminate each other's brother in front of the girl when the girl already knows about it.

"Kurosaki, please, don't hurt...my brother!"

Inoue Orihime begged.

Hearing this, Ichigo Kurosaki turned his gaze to Rukia Kuchiki aside.

But Rukia just shook her head silently.

“Ahhhhh——”

Kurosaki Ichigo felt like he was going crazy.

How to do? How to do? What on earth should I do now! ?

Death's job is to destroy Hollows, because Hollows are monsters that eat people's souls, and keeping them alive will only hurt more people, but now the Hollow he wants to kill is Inoue's brother!

No, even without Inoue, this is still a difficult decision.

Kill one person and save ten thousand people?

Am I really... qualified to make such a choice?

Kurosaki Ichigo fell into a brief confusion.

Just...just stand still.

He thought like this.

If you can't do it yourself, then wait for others to do it. Anyway, someone will kill the hollow one. That man is so strong that he doesn't need his help at all.

But……

Is it really okay to let someone else bear this sin for me?

That Xu is Inoue's brother. In order not to become Inoue's enemy, I choose to let others help me? Isn't this just escaping?

waste.

Kurosaki Ichigo cursed himself in his mind.

If you don't have consciousness, don't save people, because when we save people, our hands will also be stained with blood. It is impossible to remain naive. There is no best of both worlds. You have to make a choice.

Recalling Kuchiki Rukia's words, Kurosaki Ichigo once again clenched the Zanpakutō in his hand.

"I killed him to save you, can you understand?"

Kurosaki Ichigo imagined himself asking such a question to Inoue Orihime.

But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't imagine how the other party would answer.

Innocence is indeed useless, this is the present world, this is the so-called weight of choice. At this moment, Kurosaki Ichigo thought about a lot of things, and he felt that no matter what he chose, it would not be the best choice.

Even if he stood here and did nothing in front of Inoue's prayers, he would still be an accomplice.

"In that case, why not let me personally-"

The spiritual pressure rose, and Kurosaki Ichigo's figure disappeared instantly.

In mid-air, Xuan Hao looked expressionlessly at Xu, who was pushed high into the sky by himself.

If he were here, no one would be able to see him doing it.

However, just when he was about to punch the phantom in front of him into smoke, a black shadow stood in front of him.

That was Ichigo Kurosaki holding a Zanpakutō.

"Tsk——"

Xuanhao smacked his lips, and the fist that was originally going to hit Xu changed its direction and whizzed past Kurosaki Ichigo's ear.

The violent wind pierced the sky, and half of Kurosaki Ichigo's face was scratched, and blood continued to flow down.

"Are you looking for death? Boy."

"Please, please let me... kill this guy."

Kurosaki Ichigo didn't seem to care at all about the thrilling brush with death he just had, and he didn't feel his face bleeding at all. He just looked at the man in front of him seriously and begged.

"Give me a reason."

Xuan Hao frowned and looked at the boy in front of him who suddenly became serious, with cold eyes.

"The shout you just made made Inoue...know that this Kyon is her brother."

"Oh? So what?"

Xu's body lost power and fell from the sky. Xuan Hao stepped on the void, stretched out his hand, grabbed the broken mask and lifted it in the air.

He really didn't expect Inoue Orihime to already know that this Kyon was her brother, but so what?

He was confident that with his speed just now, Inoue Orihime couldn't see clearly who he was, so even if he killed this Hollow, Inoue Orihime wouldn't know who he was.

And he remembered that Rukia Kuchiki, as a god of death, should have the tools to erase memories.

If we kill this void first and then erase the memory, wouldn't everything be solved?

"Inouye begged me to save her brother."

Kurosaki Ichigo continued.

"So you want to save it from me?" Xuan Hao raised his eyebrows.

"No, I said, please let me kill it..."

"Don't you feel conflicted?"

Xuan Hao was almost stunned by this stupid boy's brain.

"She asked you to save her, but you want to kill her? Then you might as well let me kill her, so you don't have to bear the blame, okay?"

"But if you do that, wouldn't it be equivalent to escaping?"

"What's wrong with that? It's shameful to escape, but it's useful, isn't it?"

"No, I won't escape." Kurosaki Ichigo shook his head.

"Oh? Then do you know how she will look at you if you kill her brother in front of Inoue?" Xuan Hao smiled angrily and asked with slightly narrowed eyes.

However, Kurosaki Ichigo remained unwavering and looked more serious than ever before, "I only know that now I must make a choice. Whether it is for myself or for Inoue, I must make a choice. For this reason, I have already Be prepared to face any consequences!"

Yes, he is ready to wake up.

Hollows are monsters that can devour human souls. Even if this Hollow is Inoue's brother, he will devour her soul mercilessly. At this moment, as the God of Death, he must kill such an existence.

He will not run away, even if he bears the blame.

What escape is shameful but useful? He didn't care.

He only knows that if he really escapes, he will look down on himself for the rest of his life.

"Orihime... is also in pain now. She doesn't know whether to let me kill or save her brother. She is also struggling."

Kurosaki Ichigo muttered as if to himself.

"So, please leave it to me and we can face it ourselves! Please—"

As he spoke, he begged the man in front of him again.

"well……"

Xuan Hao looked at the serious look of the young man in front of him, then lowered his head and glanced at the girl kneeling down in the room crying.

"For Orihime?"

He sighed softly.

He originally thought that as long as he acted quickly and solved this trouble, there would be no more problems, but now it seems that there are some things that he really can't change if he wants to.

Just like the fate of these boys and girls, and their tangled but desperate courage and belief when facing a tragic fate.

"It seems that I used the wrong method because of my self-righteousness. Anyway, let's try another method..."

As he spoke, he extended his hand.

"Click——"

In the shocked eyes of Kuchiki Rukia and Kurosaki Ichigo, the mask covering Inoue Orihime's brother's face was taken off.

A false mask that can be taken off at a moment’s notice? Is there any mistake?
