Anime Group Chat: The Tree of Life Contract Heroine of All Worlds

"?!"

Upon seeing the outstretched hand, the bunny girl instinctively jumped back, but her high heels caused her to stumble, and she lost her balance and fell unnaturally to the ground.

The rooftop is made of concrete, and with constant exposure to sun and rain, the ground is quite rough.

If an ordinary person falls to the ground, they will at least get bruises all over their body. If they hit their head, they might even die on the spot.

However, Rosen flashed and quickly appeared behind the bunny girl, reaching out to put his arm around her waist to prevent her from actually falling.

"...Thank you, thank you."

The startled bunny girl realized that Rosen had grabbed her and whispered her thanks.

But they soon fell silent again because of the strange situation.

Chapter Twenty-One: Perverted Games

She was the one who was frightened, so why did she say thank you?

More importantly, why could this man see himself?

However, the feeling of her waist being embraced and her skin touching made the girl feel uncomfortable.

She quickly broke free from Rosen's embrace and hid to the side, exclaiming in surprise, "You can really see me?"

"I personally believe that there is nothing wrong with my eyesight."

Rosen looked at the bunny girl in front of him with a smile.

This response caused the bunny girl's emotions to fluctuate again, and a look of joy and relief, as if she had survived a disaster, appeared on her beautiful face.

You startled me just now.

She blinked, her voice trembling slightly.

"I didn't expect you could actually see me."

"Excuse my bluntness, but given your current attire, I think that apart from the blind, no one in this world would not react to you. Even a girl with a normal sexual orientation would at least take a second look at you on a school rooftop. Of course... or are you playing some kind of master game behind everyone's back?"

"If that's the case, then I'll just pretend I didn't see it."

"It's not one of those weird games!"

The bunny girl immediately retorted.

"So you know."

The precise tone brought a blush to the face of the girl being teased.

But she quickly regained her composure.

Nothing.

calm.

She would never blush if a boy younger than her teased her.

This is the lingering charm of being a mature adult.

After comforting herself in this way, Mai Sakurajima began to carefully consider her experience of traveling from home to school.

I have been feeling ignored and my sense of existence has been gone for quite some time.

This situation was first discovered at the school's convenience store.

When I was queuing to pay, the cashier deliberately ignored my presence and asked the student behind me to scan the code to pay.

At first, Mai Sakurajima found it strange, but after verifying it repeatedly, she realized that at certain times, her presence in the eyes of others would disappear.

At first, only a small number of people ignored her.

When he boarded the tram, people in the same carriage would still secretly take photos of him, a retired entertainer, with their phones.

As time goes by, the scope and time of being overlooked become increasingly wider.

Even her mother forgot she existed.

It was only then that Mai Sakurajima began to panic.

After all, no matter what happened before, when he got home and dialed that woman's number, he would always hear a familiar voice.

Although I felt a bit annoyed, I also felt a sense of comfort.

But from the moment she forgot herself, Mai Sakurajima began to try to reverse this situation.

But after trying many times over several days, I still couldn't change my presence.

Today, however, is yet another day that has been completely ignored.

Having already begun to break down, she decided to let loose a little and wander around outside in a bunny girl outfit.

Based on what she had seen and heard this morning, Mai Sakurajima confirmed that she was still just a blur in front of other people, even in the cameras of their phones.

until now.

The boy, who was standing on the rooftop and had somehow managed to bewitch a female student, saw himself.

She is also the only human being who has been able to acknowledge her existence.

A cold wind blew.

Mai Sakurajima subconsciously shivered; it was indeed a bit cold to wear such revealing clothing in this weather.

"Put this on."

A fur coat appeared on Rosen's right hand.

"If other people see this, they'll think I did something to you?"

You were indeed trying to do something to me, weren't you?

Despite inwardly grumbling, Mai Sakurajima obediently took the coat from Lawson and put it on.

There was no residual heat or odor; it was just like something I had just bought from a clothing store.

But I clearly didn't see him holding this outfit.

However, considering the current situation, Mai Sakurajima seems to have figured out that Lawson has the same "abnormal" qualities as herself.

Otherwise, there's no reason why he would be the only one who could see himself.

"You must be the same as me, right?"

Sakurajima Mai wrapped her coat around herself, covering her most intimate areas where she could offer "favors," and asked in a tentative tone.

"If we're talking about differentiating ourselves from ordinary people, then yes."

Rosen shrugged.

"But before we start chatting, shouldn't this bunny girl introduce herself?"

"I am Mai Sakurajima. You should have heard of this name."

The girl whispered.

"really."

Rosen nodded.

The girl's answer confirmed his guess.

I just never expected everything to be such a coincidence.

Chapter Twenty-Two: When in doubt, quantum mechanics

Mai Sakurajima.

Originally from Kanagawa Prefecture, she debuted as a child star at the age of six.

It is well known that almost all child stars fade into obscurity as they grow older.

However, Mai Sakurajima managed to balance her studies and acting career, and by the age of fourteen, she had become a household name throughout Japan.

However, just as her popularity reached its peak, she suddenly announced the cessation of her entertainment activities.

Her mother and manager tried their best to dissuade her, but they could not stop Mai Sakurajima's strong desire to retire.

Unable to resist her stubbornness, her mother had no choice but to agree to the girl's request to retire.

However, the mental preparations she received only fueled Mai Sakurajima's growing aversion to her acting career.

In this situation, the girl's initial thought of "I wish I were an ordinary person" gradually transformed into a slightly extreme thought of "I wish everyone could not see me."

And reality unfolded exactly as she had hoped, with no one noticing her even when she was wearing a bunny girl outfit and wandering around a campus full of students.

Then, she panicked.

Then, he met Rosen.

"You're the only one in the whole school... no, practically the whole city, who can see me now. Do you know what's going on?"

Mai Sakurajima's tone was somewhat hurried.

She was like a drowning person who couldn't swim, and Rosen was her lifeline.

I only know a little about your situation.

Rosen gestured a distance with his index finger.

Although he knew that Mai Sakurajima's condition was called "puberty syndrome," he probably didn't understand the specifics as well as those directly involved did.

After all, the original work is a youth romance novel with extraordinary abilities. It only needs to occasionally offer some sweet moments and some heart-wrenching scenes to gain a large number of fans.

As for the so-called "adolescent syndrome".

Although the original work explained it as "some kind of collective hypnosis," it's actually just like quantum mechanics.

No matter what special circumstances occur, a simple "this is just puberty syndrome" can explain it all.

But in reality, saying it was as if he hadn't said anything at all.

In Rosen's view, the so-called "adolescent syndrome" has developed into something extremely mysterious.

The "disappearance" situation like that of Mai Sakurajima is relatively normal. Later, there are even situations like "simulated future", "personal split", "body swap", "time travel", "entering parallel worlds" and the "quantum entanglement" state that is most difficult for Rosen to handle.

To truly resolve the problem, we must start with the individual.

"I don't know either. I just... one day I suddenly realized that some people weren't paying attention to me anymore, and then the scope and duration of this phenomenon kept getting bigger and bigger."

Sakurajima Mai sighed.

"Think carefully, do you have any issues with yourself? For example, when did you first notice this situation?"

"Rosen asked."

"...It should have been about six months ago."

She couldn't remember the specifics.

"Six months ago, I remember it was after your last movie was released."

Rosen said.

"How do you know so clearly?"

Mai Sakurajima looked up in surprise.

"You're a national goddess; your image is everywhere, even on everyday items. It's hard for me not to know about you."

Moreover, because it was a familiar anime character, Lawson paid a little attention to this celebrity.

However, I didn't pay too much attention to it.

After all, at that time he was just an ordinary student researching cheat codes.

Even if you want to build a harem here, you need to have some resources first.

Without money, without any special advantages, and without being outstanding in person, why would those anime girls be interested in him?

Even if girls in anime are gentler than those in real life, if you approach them presumptuously, you'll only get the response, "You're a good person."
