Chapter 285 - Chapter 285: Persona Tomoe Gozen

Matsushita Kousuke's twisted desires were domestic violence and infidelity.

And Matsushita Masumi's twisted desires were her dependence on Matsushita Kousuke and a possessiveness that made her willing to endure domestic violence rather than share her husband with others or get a divorce.

Miyauchi Hikage sent out two Calling Cards and included an untraceable email to remind these two people, ensuring they would see the Calling Cards immediately.

After that, Miyauchi Hikage casually beat up the berserk Matsushita Kousuke's Shadow with the projected Split Soul Katana, making the other party successfully realize his problems.

But even after his heart was changed, his Shadow indicated before dissipating that his marriage with Matsushita Masumi was completely over. After having his heart changed, he certainly wouldn't be able to accept the things he had done.

Judging by his plans, he was probably prepared to leave the marriage with nothing.

It was unknown whether his mistresses would continue to stay by his side after knowing this.

Matsushita Ayami naturally had no objections to this; she herself wanted this man to pay a sufficient price.

On the contrary, there was some trouble on Matsushita Masumi's side.

She herself wasn't even afraid of her husband's domestic violence and insisted on staying with him, so her Shadow naturally wasn't the type that could be solved just by beating it up simply.

Moreover, if the hand was too heavy, it might indeed cause mental damage to the person in reality.

Fortunately, Shadows were much easier to communicate with than humans themselves, after all, they were the manifestation of the truest desires in human hearts.

So Miyauchi Hikage directly let Matsushita Ayami go up and use "Talk No Jutsu" on her mother.

"Anyway, this is her subconscious and negative emotions. If you can't out-talk her, just give her a slap to calm her down. Your mother in reality won't remember these things," Miyauchi Hikage explained the process of changing hearts to Matsushita Ayami.

"And if you can face your own heart directly and successfully change your mother's heart, you might also have a chance to awaken your own Persona here."

When bringing her to the Metaverse, Miyauchi Hikage, who noticed Matsushita Ayami had potential, had already told her about Personas.

For this reason, Matsushita Ayami curiously asked him if he had awakened a Persona.

Miyauchi Hikage expressed that his heart was too dirty, so it was better not to awaken one, otherwise he was afraid he couldn't control his own desires.

Of course, this was just his casual explanation.

The actual reason was that the existence of a Stand was already close to the essence of a Persona. The evolved Yellow Temperance had the ability to turn into whoever it ate and get stronger the more it ate.

He couldn't distinguish whether this counted as awakened or not himself.

However, whether awakened or not, it couldn't compare to the damage of his main body anyway, so he didn't care about this matter.

As for Shiina Mashiro, she belonged to the type whose emotions were too stable. Without encountering any stimulation, it was estimated that it would be difficult for her to awaken a Persona in the Metaverse.

Looking around, Matsushita Ayami really might become the first person to awaken a Persona in the Metaverse.

After all, she had recognized her own heart, and the current situation also required her to vent the emotions in her heart.

Watching Matsushita Ayami arguing with her stubborn mother there, several times her mother was about to go berserk when the conversation couldn't go on. At first, Matsushita Ayami was a little unfamiliar, but after looking back at Miyauchi Hikage a few times, this girl, who was the same age as Miyauchi Hikage, unhesitatingly slapped her mother when her mother was emotional.

By the way, Miyauchi Hikage gave her a glove made of Black Rope in advance. It might not be useful for hitting people, but used to hit a Shadow, it dealt True Damage with every basic attack.

Approximately after Matsushita Ayami slapped her for the tenth time, her mother seemed to be finally convinced by her daughter's "Talk No Jutsu" and True Damage slaps, preparing to let go of Matsushita Kousuke and take the money to be a happy rich woman.

Before the obsession dissipated, the other party actively handed a necklace to her daughter.

Relying on the appraisal effect of the Otherworld Navigation APP, the effect of this thing should be to increase the carrier's magic power cap, and this thing also had a certain effect in reality.

It could be considered a supernatural item for the time being.

However, what needed attention now was not these, but after successfully changing the fate of her parents, watching the figure of her mother turning into light spots and dissipating, a dark grimace mask appeared on Matsushita Ayami's face. Her consciousness also became entranced, as if she heard some special voice in her ear.

"Protagonist teams usually only awaken masks when forced to face danger. You're good; you awaken the mask only after deciding everything."

Miyauchi Hikage muttered.

"But at this step, you shouldn't need my help anymore. Let me see your Persona."

This was natural. At this moment, Matsushita Ayami had realized through the voice appearing in her ear that as long as she could tear off the grimace mask covering her face, she could obtain a Persona belonging exclusively to her.

She nodded gently towards Miyauchi Hikage.

"I am thou... Thou art I... This is my Persona... Come forth, Tomoe Gozen!"

As the words fell, the torn mask condensed behind her along with blood into a silver-haired woman wearing samurai armor, majestic and awe-inspiring, whose face could not be seen but had two black horns on her forehead.

Knowing the other party's name and looking at the familiar attire, Miyauchi Hikage couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.

Holy crap, has the Throne of Heroes invaded the Metaverse?

Although Miyauchi Hikage knew long ago that the Personas awakened by the protagonist teams were based on famous historical figures and gods, when those Personas were summoned, their images would be artistically processed, and one could tell at a glance that they were not real people.

He even remembered that in the protagonist team of Persona 4, someone awakened the Persona of Tomoe Gozen, and later awakened sequentially into Suzuka Gongen and Haraedo-no-Okami. It was just that the image of that Tomoe Gozen... indeed had no similarity to the image summoned by Matsushita Ayami.

Looking at the Persona image summoned by Matsushita Ayami, it was at least seventy percent close to that Tomoe Gozen in the Type-Moon universe (Fate franchise), just that the true face under the mask could not be seen because of the existence of the helmet.

Miyauchi Hikage was eighty percent sure that under the other party's mask should be that familiar face.

So, was there some collision between the Metaverse and the Throne of Heroes?

"It's really surprising. It makes me want to awaken a Persona to see which Heroic Spirit I can pull over," Miyauchi Hikage exclaimed, and then asked Matsushita Ayami, "Does your Persona have self-will now? Can it communicate freely with people?"
