The shining Shoko Toyokawa

The voice belongs neither to 'Xiao Mu' nor to 'Deng', nor to anyone else, but to 'Toyokawa Shoko'.

On the stage rang out,

"If you really love me, why did you fall in love with Aine and even sacrifice your soul for her?"

Xiaoxiang, who had been silenced by Xiaodeng, once again gained the "authority" of speech.

"If you really love me... why haven't you 'come back' yet? Why are you still wandering around and... why aren't you staying by my side?!"

"Saying you love a woman like me..."

“It’s absolutely a lie!”

Crystal clear tears welled up in the eyes of the aqua blue-haired girl.

Crying is usually meaningless to adults.

Because no matter how loud you cry, no one will come to comfort you.

Even if a child accidentally falls while playing, he or she will not cry if there is no adult around.

Crying is to get the "love" of others.

"Snapped"

With a crisp sound, Xiaoxiang's wrist was tightly grasped by the gray-haired girl.

"I'm not lying. I... like 'Xiao Xiang' the most."

The lamp's smile is gentle... but morbid.

"I got you, Xiaoxiang!"

The 'watermelon worm' that was pretending to be dead suddenly jumped up and hugged the 'predator' tightly in its arms.

This time, she will never let go!

"Little Light..."

"I caught you too!"

But the watermelon worm was still just a watermelon worm. It was as if the picture had been frame-switched. Xiao Deng didn't notice what happened at all.

The gun in his hand flew away without wings and landed in Xiangzi's hands.

This…

It's just like the Stand users, the world and the Crimson King in JoJo! This is only possible by stopping time or taking away a portion of it.

"Xiao Deng, Meng...it's time to wake up."

Xiangzi didn't dare to look into Xiaodeng's eyes.

There is no doubt that she... deceived Xiao Deng again,

"Anyone who gets involved with me will always become miserable and unhappy..."

"So, in order to change this situation, I have no choice but to die, right..."

Anyway, dreams are something that will be forgotten once you wake up, so Xiangzi no longer hides it from Xiaodeng.

"Don't worry, Xiao Deng, when 'I' wake up from this dream, I will be back to Xiao Deng and everyone's favorite Toyokawa Shoko."

"Then... I'll be able to make everyone happy..."

"That's good, but at my current level, I'm not worthy of being relied upon by anyone."

As if he had convinced himself, Xiaoxiang's tone became more resolute.

"I have to become more perfect,"

"I'm sorry, Xiao Deng, I lied to you again... If you leave this time, you will forget me."

"Then... you should also return to everyone as soon as possible and spend every day well..."

"I…"

“I actually…”

She hesitated for a long time, and finally said the words she said to the unconscious Deng on a rainy day 8 years ago.

"I wish you happiness,"

"besides…"

"I love you."

As Xiangzi finished speaking, the world gradually darkened.

It's like after a movie ends, the screen gradually dims.

Even if the credits appear on the black screen, or if an easter egg is played after all these,

But when the movie ends, it's over.

Even though the next show would be the same movie, the audience would still sit there and not leave.

But this movie is finally over...

"Goodbye..."

"Little lamp..."

In the darkness, Xiaoxiang's voice, like a gentle stream of water, surrounds Xiaodeng.

She turned into a stuffed penguin again, and seemed to be gradually floating up.

In a daze, she seemed to be... falling asleep.

Only when people fall asleep in reality can they dream.

Falling asleep in a dream means that the following 'night', no matter how long it is, will be meaningless and dawn will come in the blink of an eye.

A doll that is exactly the same as the one left by Xiangzi's mother.

The gem-like eyes gradually turned golden, and it came bouncing to the side of the demon god who was holding the penguin doll that had shrunk to the size of a palm and was floating in the air.

The reverse cross of judgment hangs high in the air, and has not been lowered for a long time.

This is natural. Once the judgment begins, the "whole world" will be destroyed.

And now, the one whom the 'Demon God' loves has not left yet,

"Although it was very short in the real world, she repeated it countless times in her 'dream' and never gave up."

The puppet and the 'Demon' watched the 'Light' leave.

At the moment when the 'light' 'jumped', the demon wove another dream.

"I'm curious, why can she change the dream you weave?"

The golden-eyed puppet, somewhat confused, supported himself with his hands.

The 'Demon' said nothing, but just watched the penguin doll... gradually rising up and leaving her world.

"not good!"

The puppet suddenly jumped up.

"Stop her now!"

"Eh?"

The demon's voice echoed throughout the world.

The penguin doll that was supposed to be 'sleeping' in the air now spread its wings.

"I said..."

"I got you, Xiaoxiang!"

Chapter 100: I Want to Be Your God (I’m Waiting for You in Reality)

The method to make the 'Demon God' appear is incredibly simple—

Falling asleep in a dream means waking up soon.

But there is another possibility...

In this ethereal dream world, there is only one moment.

There is only one moment, absolutely real—

The moment when the 'Demon' sent Xiao Deng away!

The method to reach that moment and make the devil appear is so simple that anyone who can still breathe can do it!

That is sleep!

Sleep means nothingness,

Because for an individual, even if he sleeps for ten hours, or even for six years, it is just a moment.

But this is not the case for the 'sleeping person'.

Even if all dreams will eventually turn into nothingness, not even fragments of memory will be left!

But, they definitely existed!

And as long as something exists,

As long as it existed!

Even if it eventually disappears without a trace, it can still change before it completely disappears...

Do not!

It is to create the future!

In countless desperate dreams, Xiao Deng created...

It’s this moment!

"I said..."

"I got you, Xiaoxiang!"

The penguin doll spread its wings, and the aurora-like light behind her condensed into a warm cross.

This...is not the inverse cross that defies God and judges the 'Devil'.

But a right cross,

It has many religious meanings.

But anyone who 'looks' at the cross will understand,

What it represents is an overwhelmingly powerful meaning—

Love and redemption!

"Xiao Xiang, you said that there is no God in the world,"

"Since it doesn't exist, let's just create one!"

When Xiao Deng said "I caught you", it didn't mean physical contact.

But at this moment...

This is the moment when she can 'change the world'!

"I…"

"I want to be your God!"

"No, run away!"

Before the doll could even finish its exclamation, it was pulled by a huge force and flew into the air.

"She's eroding... no! She's eating the world!"

If the 'Demon God' hadn't reached out and grabbed it,

The doll will probably be eaten in an instant.

But...what's the point?

A mountain tens of thousands of meters high was pressing down on the doll and the demon at an exaggerated speed.
