The effect of the change of heart was immediate.
When Matsushita Ayami returned to her room with tens of thousands of yen in loose change and quite a few worthless trinkets, using the Otherworld APP under Miyauchi Hikage's guidance, the sounds of beating and scolding downstairs had long since ceased.
She tried going down to check on her parents, only to find that her mother had already fallen asleep in the bedroom.
Usually, after quarreling with her father, her mother would spend half the night lamenting in her room, unable to sleep even after crying until she had no tears left.
Her stepfather had also locked himself in the study without making a sound. It was Miyauchi Hikage who told her that the other party was currently rewriting the divorce application and the division of assets after the divorce.
When the sun rose tomorrow, their broken family should be able to welcome a new beginning.
Although she had mentioned words of gratitude to Miyauchi Hikage more than once in the Metaverse, looking at the changes in reality, she couldn't help but express her thanks again to this Mysterious Person whose face she couldn't see clearly.
Given her personality, she even quite directly revealed an attitude that if Miyauchi Hikage wanted, she was willing to become his lover.
Such explicit language made Miyauchi Hikage take a second look at the girl in front of him.
Although he hadn't seen the work she was from, a heroine who was so straightforward in this regard was really quite rare.
If he hadn't investigated beforehand and known her clean relationship history, Miyauchi Hikage would have probably considered her in the direction of those "public bus" type heroines with rich experience.
"I'm not the kind of animal thinking with my lower body who sleeps with someone on the first day we meet. If I really wanted to do that, I wouldn't have appeared in front of you in this form," Miyauchi Hikage waved his hand, telling Matsushita Ayami there was no need for this.
Matsushita Ayami blinked, looking undiscouraged: "So, does Mr. Mysterious Person prefer the nurturing type? Do you mean that as long as I can find your identity in reality, you won't refuse?"
"Let's talk about it if you can actually find it." Miyauchi Hikage shrugged noncommittally at Matsushita Ayami's inexplicable idea, and then signaled that he was leaving.
Matsushita Ayami wanted to keep the other party in her home for a while longer to see if she could ask for more clues about his identity.
However, facing a woman with ulterior motives who craved his body, Miyauchi Hikage gave a sentence, "I think I've already provided you with a lot of clues," and then decisively activated teleportation to return to his residence in Beika Town.
Watching the other party leave as silently as he came, Matsushita Ayami, who originally had a reluctant look on her face, silently withdrew her expression.
However, compared to her past appearance of wrapping herself up like a hedgehog, her mood now was actually much more stable than before.
After all, too many things happened tonight.
She casually followed that Shinomiya Kaguya to guess the location of the Mysterious Person, obtained the Death Note that could manipulate the life and death of others, and then, just as she struggled for half a day and planned to write her stepfather's name on that paper, she actually attracted the Mysterious Person directly.
Finally, there was the Otherworld APP that the Mysterious Person used to trade with her. In less than an hour, the complicated situation in her family was solved by the other party in a strange way.
Even she herself, after successfully persuading her mother's Shadow to give up her obsession with that man, untied the knot in her heart and obtained that incredible power called "Persona."
Looking at the Mysterious Person's attitude, it seemed that the Tomoe Gozen she awakened still had many secrets. According to the other party, after fully cultivating her, she might be able to exert combat power above special-grade in the Metaverse.
Even if she encountered some fortuitous encounter in the future, maybe she would have a chance to summon Tomoe Gozen in reality.
Matsushita Ayami always felt that when the other party said this, he subconsciously glanced at the back of her hand several times. She didn't know what it meant.
It was just that she didn't have the energy to think about it carefully anymore.
When the Mysterious Person was still there, she kept her mood tense and excited, and maintained the rhythm of Hamon breathing to refresh herself.
Now that the other party had left, the exhaustion from just awakening the Persona surged up all at once. She just wanted to have a good sleep now.
As for sharing the Metaverse with that group of girls in the chat group, let's talk about it after waking up tomorrow.
The Mysterious Person probably wouldn't think she was slacking off just because she slept in.
Thinking so, even Matsushita Ayami, who changed her name back to Sudou Ayami, fell into a sweet sleep after more than half a year.
...
Miyauchi Hikage couldn't figure out anything from the torn page of the Death Note. However, he could feel that this thing had a certain connection with the Logic of Calamity in the world, but because it involved power in the direction of laws, behind this thing should be the law of death of this world.
Miyauchi Hikage tried it. Although the magic power in his body now wasn't oceanic, it was already quite substantial compared to a standard Grade 1 jujutsu sorcerer like Nanami Kento.
It was just that with his current amount of magic power, he could barely project one torn page at a time, and writing a name on it would consume a large amount of magic power again.
Most importantly, this thing had quite a few restrictions in the supernatural field. Although this torn page would definitely count as a special-grade Cursed Tool in Jujutsu High, using so much magic power just to remotely kill a person—who could be killed by conventional means—via conventional means (suicide methods achievable by ordinary people and the default heart attack) wasn't very cost-effective for Miyauchi Hikage.
With so much magic power wasted, Miyauchi Hikage might as well project more fragments that could stimulate Stands. That thing also had the power of laws, but it was relatively much more harmless. Maybe one day Miyauchi Hikage could find a way to evolve his Stand again.
Besides, if he really wanted to kill someone, with the Metaverse here, it would be too simple for him to get rid of a villain.
Even assassinating in reality would be much less trouble than using the Death Note.
It could be said that the power of laws on it was the most precious thing.
What Miyauchi Hikage could think of was that later when his realm was higher and he could infuse these powers of laws into his projected weapons, he could create weapons with instant death effects.
As for now, it was better to save it for Tohru to research slowly when she came back.
However, that guy Tohru rushed back to her hometown to recruit people after getting the projected version of the Soul Crystal. He didn't know when she would be able to come back to accept the increasingly heavy research work on Miyauchi Hikage's side.
Fortunately, besides Tohru, Miyauchi Hikage also had Jerry as a helper and Kanoe Yuuko as a useful lab rat. There was no problem letting them help share some research work.
He planned to stuff the meteorite fragment into Kanoe Yuuko's body now to see if the other party could awaken a Stand on the spot.
