I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

The principle is unknown, and the precautions are unknown. Although the act of traveling through the world has been carried out many times, Cheng Rang is really a "novice" in this aspect.

Tearing the wall between the world and time and space is indeed a very dangerous act. To be more precise, in Letitia's words: If it weren't for the fact that your will and strength have reached the ceiling level, plus your physical body is in the realm of true gods, this time-traveling behavior without any common sense of self-protection could even destroy his body. The soul was washed into countless fragments and scattered across three thousand worlds.

"So next time, please guide me in advance..." Cheng Rang got up from the ground with a wry smile.

"Huh? This is also my first time to take the initiative to travel through time and space. Who would have thought that an experienced person like you could be so incompetent."

"I'm so sorry for being such a bad guy, Lord Cursing God~"

Leticia pursed her lips, looked around, and then asked, "Okay, we're here. You can see if the place is right."

As soon as he finished speaking, the dark clouds above his head began to thunder, and the drizzle of rain fell from the high sky, soaking the ground.

"The place is right, it's exactly the same as in memory." Cheng Rang nodded, and his eyes were immediately attracted to the manhole cover on the roadside.

"Then why are you still standing there? Jumping around."

The reason why he met Lina for the first time was because Cheng Rang wanted to jump up and look into the distance——

So Cheng Rang exerted force under his feet, and the ground instantly roared with cracks, and his figure rose up from the ground.

After landing, he turned around as if remembering something and asked, "No, I already know they are under the manhole cover, do you still need to jump like this?"

Leticia sighed softly and held her forehead: "It seems that your brain has not fully recovered its previous IQ."

"Are you kidding me...?"

"Yes." Leticia nodded without hesitation.

The rumble of thunder echoed across the sky again, the dark surroundings were illuminated by the white light of lightning, and the rain became heavier and heavier.

The ground beneath his feet began to become muddy, but there was still no movement from the abandoned manhole cover not far away.

Cheng Rang couldn't help but walked over and lifted the manhole cover. The narrow shaft was pitch dark inside, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

"I'll go down and take a look."

Cheng Rang jumped down without hesitation, while Leticia stretched out her fingers to form a cursed shield above her head to keep out the rain.

"I'll wait for you outside."

Leticia really couldn't be so decisive about getting into the sewer.

But Cheng Rang didn't let Leticia wait long, and he jumped out after a while.

He shook his head and said, "No one."

"It's expected..." Leticia seemed a little unaccustomed to the long hair hanging loose behind her. She pushed it back and said, "Because it's the first time, and I couldn't even try it before. No, maybe the time is not right."

"You mean the time has not been adjusted correctly?"

"It's normal for time to have errors... You have to know that traveling through time and space is not a simple matter!"

Cheng Rang waved his hand, took out a hair tie from his pocket and handed it over: "I don't mean to blame you... Just tie your hair up if you're not used to it. Use this."

Leticia took the headband handed to her by the process, neatly pulled her long hair into a ponytail and shook it: "Not bad, the preparations are quite complete."

"That's~"

"So when you go back this time, give me back all your clothes, one that's good!"

I was discovered... I really can't hide it!

Cheng Rang had expected such a result, and was about to burst into tears - regarding the matter of secretly leaving Leticia's sailor uniform, white silk stockings, and Pang Ci.

"Is this the price of having my memory peeked into? Lord! Forgive me for waiting..."

"While I'm still in a good mood, can you please restrain yourself before I beat you up on the spot?"

"Yes, I'm very sorry."

Cheng Rang bowed his head and admitted his mistake on the spot, and felt that it was great that the white-haired legal lolita from another world had different views on human beings.

"Where do we go now?"

"Outer Area 39, Mr. Matsuzaki's place."

"Then let's go." Leticia nodded, then opened her arms.

After she maintained this posture for a few seconds, Cheng Rang looked confused:

"What are you doing?"

"Hold me and go!"

"Can't you fly?"

"...."

——————————————

Cheng Rang was leaping through the ruins of buildings at high speed, holding an unhappy Leticia in his arms. Her cheeks were round and bulging, and she glanced to the side.

"You should have told me when you ran out of strength..." Cheng Rang only found it a bit funny.

"Traveling... traveling through time and space is not a simple matter!"

"I know, I know~"

"You know what a bastard, you're a pussy, a pervert, a lolicon!"

"Hey! Pay attention to the language. When did you learn to swear?

"

Leticia raised her fist and hit Cheng Rang hard on the chest: "I didn't learn this from you!"

"...Is it my fault?" "——Otherwise?!"

"No, please bring back the cute, polite and coquettish white-haired loli!"

Leticia twitched the corners of her mouth fiercely:

"I suggest you commit suicide."

Chapter 38 A world that is in jeopardy

In the evening when there was a thunderstorm, the patter of rain outside the shaft formed white noise. The thunder was blocked by the thick ground, and when it came in, it was already a dull rumble.

Matsuzaki, who was in the underground shelter of Area 39, was about to turn off the lights early and go to sleep when he heard the sound of someone knocking at a certain rhythm from the manhole cover outside.

A child who had not yet fallen asleep got up with her bare feet and ran to check. When she slowly lifted the manhole cover, she found two faces she had never seen before standing outside.

"......You are?"

Cheng Rang bent down and stared at the child who opened the manhole cover and asked him - a face that was completely unfamiliar to him.

So he could only try his best to put on a gentle smile and ask her: "Hello, I would like to find Mr. Matsuzaki. Is he here?"

"Well, yes, big brother, come in first."

The girl then looked at Letitia who was standing aside and said, "Little sister, please come in too. It's raining outside and you may catch a cold."

"Elder~ Someone is looking for you!"

After saying that, the girl turned around and ran towards the shelter.

Cheng Rang held back his laughter, lifted the manhole cover, and asked Leticia with gentlemanly courtesy: "Come on, little sister?"

"I'll just wait outside..." Leticia pursed her lips and frowned slightly.

"Maybe we'll spend the night here tonight."

"...."

Looking around at the muddy and dark ruins, and then at the warm yellow light emanating from the shaft, Leticia finally got in with some disgust while muttering what was really troublesome.

The two found Matsuzaki here.

"I shouldn't...not know you, right? This gentleman." Matsuzaki squinted his eyes and pushed his eyes back on his face, his tone gradually becoming more confident.

"I'm sorry to bother you at this time. I am a friend of Miss Shinoda and I heard about you from her."

"Kazuo's friend? That's it..." Matsuzaki nodded, seeming to believe it, "Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Cheng Rang looked around at the children around him, but did not find the familiar figure among them, so he asked: "Excuse me, have you ever taken in two children named Lina and Xue here?"

"Lina?"

After hearing the name, Old Matsuzaki seemed to have some impression, but he just shook his head and said in a regretful tone: "I'm sorry that I can't help you, because the child named Lina left here almost a year ago. ."

"....a year ago?!"

Cheng Rang blinked in surprise and looked at Leticia beside him.

Letitia seemed to be conveying to herself with her eyes: It is normal for the time to have errors, such an answer.

"Then do you know where she is now?"

Old Matsuzaki just shook his head slightly: "She probably returned to the city and continued to wander... After all, that incident had a big impact on her, and it was about another child named Xue."

"Xue, what happened to her?"

Facing Cheng Rang's questioning, Matsuzaki first touched the head of the girl next to him and urged her to go to bed quickly. After she left, he said: "Almost a year ago, Lina and Xue, who were out searching for supplies, met The IISO team came to capture the Cursed Child, but because of Snow's violent resistance, they shot her."

"That night was the same thunderstorm night as now, and Lina was the only one who came back."

"....how come?"

In that world, Lina and Yuki who met him... were indeed consistent with what Mr. Matsuzaki described.

It's just that in this world, they who were desperate at that time did not meet themselves. Xue, who was hit critically by a Baogang bullet, died a year ago at the place where she once met.

"..."

Cheng Rang finally said goodbye to the old man Matsuzaki and left the shelter. The night became darker, with Leticia silently accompanying him. Although the two of them kept walking aimlessly.

"Can you go back to where you were a year ago?" he suddenly asked.

"It's a pity. Please forgive me and accept the change." Leticia just persuaded calmly: "The travel of time and space is a single round trip. We can only return to where we were originally from here."

"Then go back and do it again."

"We can't do this. The huge power tears apart time and space, making this world more fragile, because the energy level here is too low, and it can't even withstand our full blow and it will break. If we try a few more times, everything in this world will be broken." The timelines will be completely intertwined due to the shattering of the world wall..."

"In other words, it will be like the attraction between black holes - collision, explosion, disappearance, and annihilation."

This place is different from the border city of Helsalemzlot that is connected to countless different worlds. The mysterious level here is too fragile. Just the arrival of Cheng Rang and Leticia is about to burst the place. Not to mention multiple round trips.

Like a thin piece of paper, punched through by someone's fist, although

You can barely stick it together with tape afterwards, but if it breaks down again, there's always the risk of it being completely broken and unable to be re-glued.

There will always be more tape than paper, and the complete paper will not break by itself if left there for a long time, but the tape will lose its stickiness.

"In other words, this is the only chance?"

Leticia sighed helplessly: "If you didn't almost cut the world into pieces with a knife last time, we would still have another chance."

"Feel sorry."

"It's not your fault. After all, you almost failed to keep your heart at that time. If you don't vent it out and allow your negative emotions to grow, the moment you are completely swallowed up, countless worlds may be destroyed."

Listening to Leticia's words, Cheng Rang finally understood why the system had to limit its own strength in this world, and it needed to bounce itself back as soon as possible when it had a tendency to destroy.

In the final analysis, I am still too strong...

But - is there anything wrong with being too strong?

What a joke.

...

"Okay, I've answered all the questions for you. Where should we spend the night?" Leticia stopped and looked around at the tattered, muddy ruins.

"You don't want to make do with the sewers. Where else can you go, the only choice is the city." Cheng Rang shrugged, "It just so happens that I know a place."

Leticia said: "Tendou Civilian Security Company? It would be a miracle if that company hasn't gone bankrupt yet."

"Sure enough, I'm still not used to it..."

"What are you not used to? I know what you remember? I can forget it if you don't want to."

"Then you'd better forget it..."
