I don't want to be an elf!

Dazai Osamu shrugged, his blunt words drawing many disapproving glances.

Almost all the superhumans in Yokohama have gathered here.

However, after discussing it for a long time, no useful plan came out.

Although Dazai Osamu's words were annoying, most people agreed with them to some extent.

Without external help, perhaps this time, they really can't save Yokohama.

Even though they were full of fighting spirit, united and clenched their fists, and each of them was prepared to sacrifice themselves for the city, they couldn't even find the enemy's location at this moment.

They had tried other methods before, such as capturing the Nightmare clones for interrogation, but those Nightmare clones that moved in the shadows were not only difficult to capture, but even if they were lucky enough to capture them, they would commit suicide immediately.

As they watched the nightmare clone addressing all the citizens of Yokohama on television, the passion of Yokohama's three major organizations gradually cooled.

They're like a pack of losers.

Perhaps, it really is all over.

"So, everyone in Yokohama, let's meet again in the new world."

These were the last words left behind by the Nightmare clone.

The live stream then stopped, leaving the screen completely black.

The next moment, a blinding crimson light enveloped the entire city.

"It's about to begin."

This sentence came to mind for everyone present.

The Nightmare's plan is about to begin.

It will probably end soon.

And they, these guardians of Yokohama, could only helplessly gather together, waiting for their annihilation to come.

The first to collapse were the elderly.

Already weakened by illness, they were utterly powerless against the influence of the City of Food.

Then, the children.

The young child, whose mind was not yet fully developed, soon fell into a coma.

The remaining people also gradually developed adverse reactions. They fought off sleep with fear, lest they fall asleep and, like the others, never wake up again.

Fear permeated every crimson-covered place.

People cried, roared, and screamed, refusing to accept it all.

Some people huddled together, trying to spend their last moments together; some sat alone on the ground, listlessly waiting to die; and some prayed to the gods for hope.

The voices of the citizens reached the ears of Dazai Osamu and his entourage, making their expressions even more gloomy.

"and many more."

Just as everyone was sinking into despair, Edogawa Ranpo suddenly jumped up as if he had just thought of something, excitedly saying, "I've thought of a way to find the Nightmare's location!"

"really?"

"As expected of Mr. Ranpo!"

"Time is running out, hurry up and tell me."

Amidst the clamor and urging, Edogawa Ranpo hurriedly said, "Mr. Mori, your ability [VitaSexualis] can generate a female-looking supernatural being, whose appearance, clothing, and measurements can all be customized, right?"

"Yes."

Mori Ougai nodded slowly, then, as if he had the same thought as Edogawa Ranpo, his eyes widened slightly: "You mean... I should turn [Alice] into [Tokisaki Kurumi], pretend to be a clone, and contact the other real clones to find the location of the original body?"

“Yes, I think it’s highly feasible.”

“Normally, I wouldn’t agree to this plan,” Mori Ougai said with heartache. “But now, if sacrificing Alice can save Yokohama, I have no other choice.”

"Then all we have to do is turn [Tokisaki Kurumi] into [Alice], right?" Dazai Osamu's lips twitched.

"But I don't want to leave Alice for even a second!"

"You damn lolicon, hurry up and do it! Time is of the essence!"

"Yes Yes Yes......"

Mori Ougai had a thought, and the blonde little girl appeared in front of him.

However, this time, Alice's eyes lacked the liveliness they once had, making her look like a real doll.

"Let me think about how to sculpt Ms. Tokisaki..."

Standing before Alice, Mori Ōgai began to make changes little by little.

"Height 160 cm, weight 40 kg, black hair, double ponytails with the left side longer than the right, right eye is red, left eye is gold, shaped like a Roman clock, clothing is a black and red off-shoulder dress, weapon is an old-fashioned flintlock pistol with one long and one short, measurements... 88/55/60 cm?"

As Mori Ōgai's character design changed, the petite blonde loli gradually transformed into a charming young woman.

With the emergence of new prototypes, Mori Ōgai began to make subtle adjustments to the appearance.

Under his meticulous craftsmanship, the doll's appearance gradually resembled that of Kurumi Tokisaki.

In just a few minutes, a doll that looked almost exactly like Tokisaki Kurumi, and at first glance appeared to be no different from the original, appeared in front of Mori Ougai.

The face is almost a perfect replica, only the body proportions hidden under the dress may be slightly off.

"Snapped."

Mori Ougai snapped his fingers, and the lifeless doll came back to life in an instant.

However, her name was no longer "Alice," but "Tokisaki Kurumi."

"Mr. Mori." The third doll revealed a charming smile, which was exactly the same as the real Kurumi Tokisaki's smile.

"Hello, Miss Nightmare."

Having completed his mission, Mori Ougai breathed a sigh of relief and gave the first command to the newly born doll.

"Then, let's begin your first task."

Chapter 95 Double Black VS Nightmare

[Main quest completed: Become Yokohama's most feared nightmare]

This concludes our performance.

The host can return to the settlement space at any time within 24 hours.

The system page that suddenly popped up brought Tokisaki Kurumi, who was on the verge of unconsciousness due to the grafting, back to consciousness.

The main quest has been completed.

That means her plan was successfully completed.

To become a nightmare that Yokohama fears, there are only two prerequisites: first, let the citizens of Yokohama know of Tokisaki Kurumi's existence; second, make the citizens of Yokohama fear Tokisaki Kurumi.

Through her speech on television, Doppelganger No. 3 fulfilled the first condition. With the help of John's "Grapes of Wrath," Tokisaki Kurumi was able to unleash the City of Time that engulfed the entire city, thus fulfilling the second condition.

Thus, the main quest was completed without any further ado.

"are you awake?"

Seeing the awakened Kurumi Tokisaki, the first clone beside her said calmly, "The timing is perfect. I was just wondering whether I should wake you up."

How long has the City of Food been running?

"Almost half an hour."

"Where's John?"

"He's moved to another place, but don't worry about him using his powers to kill you. I've sent a few clones to follow him."

Where are our main characters?

"Already here."

Clone Number One gestured outwards with its lips.

Kurumi Tokisaki focused her attention and listened outside, where she heard some piercing noises.

As time passed, the sound gradually became clearer and closer to her.

"This is it! This place is guarded by many nightmare clones!"

"The enemy's offensive is too fierce!"

"Chuuya-kun! Push it up!"

"Doctor! Dr. Yosano! Someone here has been shot!"

Kurumi Tokisaki chose a location in the forest of Yokohama's Central Park.

This area is the heart of Yokohama, making it easier for John to graft plants from all over the city. The trees also provide excellent cover, allowing the clones to move more flexibly.

Although we don't know what methods the three major organizations in Yokohama used, as the main characters, they will definitely be able to find us.

Kurumi Tokisaki believed this.

And they lived up to expectations, successfully arriving in Central Park.

“The good news is that most of the clones in the city have returned,” said Clone Number One. “The even better news is that all the ability users in Yokohama have also come, just as we planned. But I must say, you’ve really attracted a lot of hatred this time.”

"It's not big enough, how can we complete the main quest?"

"So, is the main quest complete now?"

"Yes, the system just issued a reminder that we can leave this world at any time."

"That's good." The expression on the first clone relaxed slightly. "Now we can rest too."

"Thanks for your hard work."

"It's tough without bandages."

"Haha, speaking of which, what's that guy doing now?"

"They're helping the Armed Detective Agency fight against us."

"Find an opportunity to tell her that her mission is complete. It's pathetic to keep making her act like a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).
