I'm doing abstract animation

"What do you mean?"

"Your power... doesn't belong to you, does it?"

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, Yukino and the others' expressions changed drastically. Cards were the source of their power, and this matter could be said to be the foundation of their extraordinary abilities, making it of paramount importance.

The other party actually saw through us?!

"Looks like I guessed right, tsk tsk tsk..." Another Yukino noticed the expressions on their faces and immediately clicked her tongue in amazement: "Ingenious technique, storing someone else's power within one's own body, and through some means constantly accelerating the fusion of that power with oneself, thereby completely mastering that power..."

"You're really lucky, my other self. I can't help but be jealous of you..."

At this point, everyone was in an uproar. The other party had not only seen through their basic abilities, but had practically seen right through their underwear!

Yukino Yukinoshita's face turned pale: "You're lying to me?"

At this moment, she felt extremely bad because her impulsive act had led to the complete exposure of everyone's most important source of power, which was a huge sin.

Even if Yui and the others might not say anything out of politeness, it was still a mistake she had made, and she couldn't forgive herself for it.

“…Sigh, are you really me?” The other Yukino sighed. “If it were me, you would never be in this situation.”

"So what exactly is going on?!"

Yukino Yukinoshita was getting a little annoyed. The other person was like a riddle, testing her patience time and time again, but she just couldn't do anything about it. This feeling was really frustrating.

"Hehe, let me ask you a question first: In your eyes, what am I?"

Faced with Yukino's frustration, the other Yukino calmly retorted, "I am another you, a you not recognized by the world, a you on the wrong timeline."

"Therefore, I am a human being."

Fuck you!

Everyone stared at her with disbelief on their faces, especially a few who had witnessed the brutality of monsters from other dimensions, who almost sneered out loud.

"Judging from your expressions, you don't seem to believe it..." The other Yukinoshita didn't mind either: "But it is indeed the truth."

"Humanity is not the entirety of a person. A person is not only composed of humanity, but also of animality. Humanity and animality complement each other to be considered a complete person. Of course, you can also understand this as goodwill and malice, yin and yang, or other words."

"The reason we were banished to another dimension by the world is not because our bestiality outweighed our humanity, but simply because we obtained power that the world does not allow. That is all, there is no other reason."

"So, you understand what I'm saying, right?"

Yukino Yukinoshita frowned. Indeed, Yuuki Osamu had said before that this world does not allow the existence of supernatural beings, and that once a supernatural being is born, the world will repair it.

Seeing her deep in thought, another Yukinoshita continued, "I'm not defending us. Most of the beings in other dimensions are humans who have awakened their powers for some unknown reason after experiencing great trauma. It's just that our animalistic instincts outweigh our human instincts."

"But your situation is the opposite. You don't seem to have fully integrated the power you've gained. I don't know the process by which you acquired the power, but I'm sure you made a mistake in it. This has led to your humanity now being far greater than your animality, which is why you are prone to doing things that seem kind but are actually very stupid."

After saying this, she shook her head regretfully.

"This method of fusing the power of others is unheard of. If it were me, I'd probably be incredibly powerful by now, but you in the real world haven't even mastered the most basics..."

But it doesn't matter, if what that guy said is true, and I really can completely replace my real self...

A barely perceptible glint of greed flashed in her eyes, unnoticed by anyone. Yes, she could make it impossible for anyone to detect her thoughts if she wanted to.

Fishing and catching fish are two different things. Fishing forces the other person to accept your ideas, whether they actually believe them or not is another matter; fishing, on the other hand, makes the other person ask questions on their own initiative, so that they completely believe it...

After all, she didn't want to replace a flawed version of herself.

Was there an error in the process of acquiring power?

The group looked at each other in bewilderment. Could this thing possibly make a mistake?

As for Yukino Yukinoshita, her face suddenly darkened as if she had thought of something.

"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say."

Having achieved their goal, Yukinoshita had no intention of lingering any longer.

"The next time we meet, we might be true mortal enemies!"

She smiled, and her body gradually faded.

"By the way, you need to deal with your problem as soon as possible. Humanity outweighs animalistic instincts, and sometimes the consequences can be far greater than those caused by mere animalistic instincts..."

"I look forward to your growth, and I hope you can give me a surprise when we meet again."

……

Another snowflake disappeared, like diluted ink, vanishing little by little before their eyes.

But what she left behind put the girls in a difficult position.

This is a question that Yuki Risa has never asked before!

They had absolutely no idea how to solve it...

"How about... Yukino, you go ask Ri first?"

Yui Yuigahama scratched her head, looking conflicted.

"...There's no need for that. I roughly know where the problem lies."

Taking a deep breath, Yukino Yukinoshita stood up: "Let's go to the next one first!"

Recalling the process of fusing the cards, and thinking about what Yuuki had told them before, Yukino Yukinoshita already had the answer.

Komi Shoko nodded.

With a gunshot, the white dragon, carrying the girl, soared into the sky once more.

High in the sky.

"The next house should be the one closest to Yumiko's, right?"

Recalling the locations of several houses in her mind, Yui Yuigahama smiled and said, "I remember, Yumiko, your parents are abroad?"

Yumiko Miura nodded: "That's right, but it's safer abroad in this situation. But it's the weekend today, and my brother and sister are both home."

"That's good."

"But Yui, I have a question for you..."

"what?"

"You...you guys were practicing behind my back, weren't you?"

Yui Yuigahama froze, her face instantly turning into a bitter expression: "Hey, actually, that wasn't really practice, I was just refining one of my previous moves. I broke several bones using it last time..."

"Me too, my secret must be kept secret," Ruri Gokou quickly replied.

"...My moves are quite destructive, I'm afraid of accidentally injuring anyone." A voice came from the dragon's head, and Komi Shoko also explained.

Yumiko Miura looked at Yukino Yukinoshita and found that the other was also looking at her.

"Hmph ╯^╰"

"Ah!"

Both of them let out a muffled groan and turned their heads at the same time.

This guy is the only one like me!

At this moment, their thoughts were surprisingly aligned.

Seeing the two's childish behavior, Yui Yuigahama couldn't help but laugh out loud.

These two are like opposites: one is aloof, the other is irritable; one is good at studying, the other is good at sports; one is not good at socializing, the other is good at socializing, and so on. Almost every aspect of them is the opposite, so it's no wonder they can't stand each other.

However, they are the same in one thing: they are both proud and arrogant.

"Yui, when did you break your bones?"

"Oh, didn't I tell you?"

"No, we didn't even know when you were injured."

Miura Yumiko and the others shook their heads.

"Hehe, looks like I forgot. It's that card with the glass glaze. I remember in that alternate dimension, it was about saving a brother and sister..."

"I think it's called something like penguin..."

P.S.: There will be another chapter later.

The Ghostly and Bizarre City: Chapter Sixty-Two - Miura and Komi's Family

"Hello, I'm Yuki Osamu."

Looking at the man and woman, one tall and one short, in front of him, Yuki Risa greeted them politely.

"Hello, I am Yasumasa Miura."

"Hello, I am Miura Miura."

These two are Yumiko Miura's older brother and sister.

Seeing the three of them greeting each other amicably, Yumiko Miura pouted and said unhappily, "No need to be polite with this guy. Just tell him if you're hungry or something."

Her words successfully embarrassed her older brother and sister.

"Yumiko, be polite." Miura Miyako first gently scolded her, then said somewhat apologetically to Yuuki Osamu, "Sorry, my little sister has been spoiled since she was little..."

Rolling her eyes, Miura Yumiko immediately activated the teleportation, leaving behind a sentence before turning into a golden light and disappearing on the spot.

"I'll be going now. Please take care of my family."

Her energetic and impulsive manner is quite similar to her personality.

Seeing the two of them looking a little reserved, Yuuki sighed, "Don't be nervous, I'll take you somewhere first."

He then led the two to the only room in the entire base that Yui and the others hadn't entered.

Pushing open the door, the first thing that catches the eye is the spacious living room. There are three people in the living room at this time: Mrs. Yuihama, who was sent over earlier, and the two sisters, Tamaki Hinata.

Upon seeing them enter, all three stopped what they were doing.

"Let me introduce you. These are Miura's older brother and sister. They will be living here for a while."

Miura?

Mrs. Yuihama's eyes lit up: "Are they Yumiko's older brother or sister?"

"Who are you?" Miura Yasumasa asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I'm Yui's mother. My daughter often talks about your sister in front of me."

"Oh, so you're Yui's mother. Hello, Auntie."

…………

Watching the two merge into each other at lightning speed, Yuuki Osamu breathed a sigh of relief: "In that case, please have Mrs. Yuihama introduce us..."

Mrs. Yui nodded in agreement, and the two children looked curiously at their new older brother and sister. The scene was fairly harmonious.

After leaving the room, Yuuki Ryo fell into deep thought.

He hadn't expected that Yukino Yukinoshita's fusion card would malfunction, and he had no idea that fusing cards could cause problems; this was the first time he'd ever heard of such a thing.

However, he was aware of the other party's unusual behavior, and it was likely that Yukinoshita from that alternate dimension wasn't lying.

He didn't know why the other party would tell them these things, or what their purpose was, and he wasn't particularly interested in knowing.

Strictly speaking, everything that happens in this world from now on can be categorized as a trial. Since it is a trial, it is best for him not to interfere unless absolutely necessary.

As for the issue of Yukino Yukinoshita having problems integrating into the card, he did have an answer.

Cards have a life of their own, a point he emphasized long ago. The process of integrating with a card is equivalent to the card recognizing you; only when the card recognizes you can you integrate it into your body.

How do you gain the card's approval? By empathizing with it.

Experience the dream world brought by the cards, try to understand the other party's behavior and empathize with them, and you will gain the cards' approval.

However, the card that Yukino Yukinoshita obtained is a bit special, because the prototype of the card is a simp, and a simp who was deceived.

As a woman, even if she is just a student, she is still a woman.

Women are incapable of understanding men's feelings, especially when the other person is a sycophant; in that case, empathy becomes even more impossible.

Therefore, Yukino Yukinoshita simply cannot understand why the man in the dream would cause his family to be destroyed and his family to die for a woman, and even be driven insane to kill that woman, and then cook a delicious meal like Hannibal Lecter.

Empathy refers to the emotional resonance one feels with the person being empathized with. Yui Yuigahama watched the little things between Kaori and Mr. Spider and understood Mr. Spider's final desperate anger, which made her shed tears.

Yumiko Miura was completely involved in the card game, and in the end, she watched as the people around her died one by one, experiencing unimaginable pain.
