Persona, I am the villain and I can do whatever I want

"Come on, take my hand."

"If you have realized this, come and take back the power that belongs to you!"

Chapter 96: Praying for the Death of the Dead (Part 2)

Sakura Futaba stared at the face in front of her that looked exactly like her own, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

Those scenes that once frequently appeared in her nightmares reappeared in her mind again.

She seemed to be back in that dark moment, listening to the adults in black coldly reading the suicide note, while feeling the accusations from familiar and unfamiliar relatives.

Those sharp and harsh insults made her feel heartbroken and terrified.

But now, the pain of the past has turned into anger in her heart.

She raised her head and seemed to see the familiar hand overlapping with another larger palm.

"I won't run away anymore!"

Sakura Futaba resolutely stretched out her hand and tightly grasped the hand of her other self.

"Woo..."

A cold touch came from her fingertips, accompanied by a severe headache, but she did not retreat.

【Have you finally remembered the truth? 】

A tender and lovely child's voice rang out from the bottom of her heart, as clear as the voice of a newborn, gently soothing the anger in her heart.

【What has been binding you is just an illusion. 】

[It is a curse imposed by those without blood or tears. ]

[You've already noticed the lie, right? Even though you know it, you still stop moving forward because of fear.]

"That's right," Sakura Futaba's voice trembled a little, "I have been looking for the truth...but, I..."

Even with the skills of a top hacker, she still dared not step out of the room.

As time goes by, many key clues have gradually disappeared.

Whenever she thought of this, she felt deep regret and self-blame.

"Futaba!"

A sharp cry came from outside the pyramid.

Accompanied by a violent impact like an earthquake, yellow sand and dust flew everywhere.

Isshiki Wakaba was angrily attacking the pyramid.

Sakura Futaba hugged her head tightly and groaned in pain. She didn't dare to face the words that were about to reach her ears.

"Run away...Futaba..."

Isshiki Wakaba's voice revealed endless pain and struggle.

"mom!"

Sakura Futaba opened her eyes in shock and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

【See, she never hated you. 】

[Don't hesitate... destroy those false things and take back the future you and your mother hoped for! ]

"Ahhh...!"

"Ouch... my head hurts... I feel like it's going to split apart..."

But why... do I feel relieved...

"I'm not my mother's murderer!"

"I will recover those memories and find the truth."

"I will never forgive those who brutally murdered my mother!"

【I have been waiting for so long. 】

The voice deep in my soul complains softly like a spoiled child.

【contract!】

【I am you.】

【You are me.】

【The forbidden wisdom has been revealed.】

[No mystery or illusion can cover your eyes. ]

【This time, let’s say goodbye to her properly...】

As the contract was activated, Shadow Sakura Futaba slowly floated into the air.

With a relieved smile on her face, she turned into a bright moon, casting a soft light.

The walls of the pyramid gradually became transparent under the moonlight, as if disappearing into another dimension.

The space seemed to be gently folded and then rapidly expanded, revealing a vast and boundless brilliant starry sky.

The moon slowly descended from the sea of ​​stars and turned into a flawless disk. It rotated lightly and gradually revealed its mysterious true appearance.

"Is that a UFO? Can a personality mask actually turn into a spaceship?" Takemiya approached Mitsui Tsubasa in surprise and whispered in his ear.

Mitsui Tsubasa nodded silently. Now was not the time to explain.

He knew in his heart that there were some problems with Sakura Futaba's personality mask.

Wait until she has completely untied her worries, then try to find ways to slowly guide her.

The hatch at the bottom of the UFO slowly opened, and several sci-fi mechanical tentacles protruded from it.

The tentacles stretched out to grab Sakura Futaba, but as soon as they approached Mitsui Tsubasa, they suddenly stopped.

[Let her go, you arrogant playboy! ]

A cute loli voice sounded in Mitsui Tsubasa's ears, startling him.

He hurriedly looked at Wu Jianmiao beside him and found that she seemed not to have heard the voice, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning his gaze back to the UFO in front of him, he tried to communicate with the voice mentally.

[Mitsui Tsubasa: How am I unfaithful? Children don’t understand, so don’t say anything. I am sincere to everyone! ]

[Pooh.] A disdainful voice came from my mind, [I am the Book of the Dead, the carrier of forbidden wisdom. Lies and illusions are meaningless in front of me. I can tell at a glance that you are not a good person!]

【I order you to let her go! 】

In order to increase the deterrent effect, one of the tentacles was suspended in front of Mitsui Tsubasa, with dazzling electric sparks flashing at the tip, as if ready to attack at any time.

Although Mitsui Tsubasa curled his lips in disdain in his heart, he still obediently lifted Sakura Futaba up.

His movements were light and careful, as if he was lifting a kitten.

The Book of the Dead quickly took over Sakura Futaba, and one of its most flexible tentacles even rubbed her head gently like comforting a child.

Sakura Futaba was sent into the UFO amid screams, and the scene became quiet for a moment.

There was a silent silence for a while, and then Sakura Futaba's voice came from the UFO.

"Everyone, can you hear me? I'm fine here."

"No problem, the sound is clear." Wu Jianmiao waved to her with a relieved smile on his face.

The UFO slowly descended from the illusory sky, and when it came above the two people, it had shrunk to the size of a mini car.

"Great, I can control the size of this Persona so we can act together."

"However, I only have auxiliary skills, so I'm afraid I can't join the battle."

"That's great. You're in the UFO, and ordinary shadows can't touch you at all."

The addition of Sakura Futaba has undoubtedly greatly enhanced the team's strength. She is not only an excellent scout, but as her COOP level increases, she will bring stronger battlefield support to the team.

"By the way, you need to give yourself an English code name for easy use in the other world."

After a heated discussion among the three, Sakura Futaba finally chose "Navi" as her code name and officially became a glorious navigator.

Her first contribution to the team was specially made wireless headphones.

"Here, this is a headset I modified by tampering with part of my cognition. It can achieve long-distance communication."

The headphones are a pair of left and right headphones, with Mitsui Tsubasa and Takemiya each getting one.

However, Sakura Futaba herself said that it was not necessary because her UFO was equipped with practical functions such as wireless and Bluetooth.

After testing the effects of the headphones, all three were very satisfied with their performance.

With clear answers and unimpeded calls, this headset will undoubtedly become one of the important equipment for future team operations.

After praising Sakura Futaba's contribution, Mitsui Tsubasa asked about her physical condition with concern.

"My head still hurts a bit, but it's bearable. I want to fight a few times to test my abilities."

Sakura Futaba answered truthfully, her eyes gleaming with determination and full of fighting spirit.

"Take a painkiller and don't push yourself too hard."

After asking Takemiya for professional medical advice, Mitsui Tsubasa took out a No. 2 quick-healing medicine.

A bright beam of light shot out from the bottom of the UFO and sucked in the quick-healing medicine.

Mitsui Tsubasa looked at this scene with envy, feeling that it was really convenient. Sakura Futaba went from staying at home to staying in the sky, and her fashion value soared.

Chapter 97: Praying for the Death of the Dead (Part 3)

"Zeus, its weak spot is the markings on its neck."

Sakura Futaba's calm voice came clearly into his ears through the headphones.

A confident smile flashed across Mitsui Tsubasa's lips. He gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and exerted all his strength.

When Tongziqi's sword was about to run out of power, it suddenly came to life again. The sword tip twisted back at an almost impossible angle and pierced through the neck of the "True God" cleanly.

The wolf-shaped shadow's movements froze instantly, and mist like a black torrent burst out from the wound.

The blue ball of light that was originally shining between its claws gradually dimmed, and finally shook and shattered into pieces of debris.

After carefully inspecting the battlefield, Mitsui Tsubasa sheathed his sword in a handsome manner.

"Thank you for your hard work, Navi. Your information is very useful."

"Hehehe~"

Sakura Futaba laughed an evil laugh like a villain, but quickly stopped after she realized what was happening.

Mitsui Tsubasa thought that her smile was quite cute and she didn't look like a villain at all.

Although her current level is not high and her abilities are mainly limited to reconnaissance and analysis, she can accurately perceive the weaknesses of Shadow.

These weaknesses are not limited to attribute restraint, but also include the more fragile and vulnerable parts of the Shadow's body.

With her help, Mitsui Tsubasa was more adept at fighting the Shadow, and the Personality Book began to gradually become complete.

Considering Sakura Futaba's physical condition, Mitsui Tsubasa and Takemiya Tadashi went all out in the following battle.

Apart from avoiding using firearms to attract enemies, their skills are poured out without reservation.

After safely defeating the shadows including Inugami, Shinkami, Shiye and Eliger, both of them learned new skills.

Among them, Mitsui Tsubasa learned [Mahābhufla] at level 15, confirming that the First Emperor was an ice-attribute personality mask.

However, this move is not very practical, consuming 16 SP points, and the range is about a 6-meter circular area. Except for enemies with attribute restraints, it is far less practical than Sweeping the Six Directions and Heart Flame in other situations.
