Chapter 289 - Chapter 289: The Breakdown of Doma Umaru

Compared to Miyauchi Hikage and Kishibe Rohan, who were already planning how to send people to hell, the chat group was a little calmer today.

It was late May, about halfway through the semester. Basically, normal high schools would have midterm exams in these few weeks, also known as the exam week.

Although the girls who obtained the diaries had already embarked on the supernatural path, most girls in the group didn't have much ambition. They just wanted to peacefully eat melons and watch the show in the group, and didn't plan to live in the crisis-ridden Inner World in the future.

Therefore, the girls in the group more or less restrained themselves during the exam week and focused part of their attention on their studies.

Although Shinomiya Kaguya would officially enroll in Jujutsu High next month, she had just spent a lot of effort to become the temporary Student Council President and still needed to maintain her image before leaving school. Therefore, when today's diary was released, she didn't send messages in the group immediately.

In addition, even Doma Umaru, the most active in the group, restrained herself a lot and started cramming before the exam to maintain her consistent perfect image at school.

However, there was a high probability that she was hurt by yesterday's lottery.

Although the things everyone drew were indeed quite supernatural, just look at others' rewards.

Water Affinity, Elf Affinity, Psychokinesis, Elemental Conversion Magic, Pictomancy, Byakugan...

It seemed that there was also a girl who didn't talk much in the group, who shared a set of Magical Theory and The Standard Book of Spells, Grade 1 as well as a wand in the group.

Although according to the Mysterious Person, nine people got rewards, and one person didn't say what reward she got, but this was not important.

The important thing was why she would get the supernatural ability to hit people with mahjong tiles.

Even if it came with a seemingly advanced mahjong table that could be summoned anytime and anywhere to play mahjong and fight with people, and those mahjong tiles as ammunition for attacks were almost infinitely reloaded as long as there was enough spiritual power.

But compared to others' supernatural abilities, it was too miserable.

"This reward should be given to that woman Miyanaga Teru. Why did I draw it?" Doma Umaru complained in the group.

Although Miyanaga Teru in the group seemed a little different from the Miyanaga Teru who played mahjong with superpowers occasionally mentioned by the Mysterious Person in the diary—at least Miyanaga Teru in the group didn't have any superpowers, just purely good mahjong skills.

But the other party was only a first-year high school student now, and hadn't started her path to becoming the Mahjong King yet. With the current speed of spiritual resurgence, maybe she could really awaken some supernatural power related to mahjong in the future.

Thinking about this, she became even angrier. She drank a large bottle of Happy Otaku Water with hatred on the spot at home, and then continued to do housework and review her homework with a bitter face.

However, since today's diary further mentioned the situation in Morioh Town and the ability of Stands, there were still many people discussing it.

Previously, everyone was talking about the abilities of those two BOSSes, discussing that compared to these two villains, the Mysterious Person seemed kind and gentle.

One blew up all those who knew his intelligence, and the other tracked and killed all those who wanted to investigate him. They wondered how these two people managed to hide like this.

In comparison, the Mysterious Person just talked and wouldn't really do anything outrageous to them.

Until Tsukimi Eiko suddenly turned the topic to other directions.

Tsukimi Eiko: Am I the only one who noticed the names of these Stands?

"'Killer Queen', 'The Wonder Of You' (published as Wonder of U), and that 'Cheap Trick'. One is the famous work of Queen, one is Elvis Presley's song, and the last one is also the name of a very famous rock band in the last century. Based on this speculation, I feel that these Stands are the manga artist showing his playlist to readers."

Bocchi: "!! That's really true. I uploaded a guitar cover of Killer Queen when I was in middle school. Here is the URL..."

"... Then if I get a Stand in the future, can I name my Stand with the name of my own band's song? Suddenly a little tempted!"

Hoshino Ai: "Then I will use the song 'Idol' given to me by the Mysterious Person to name my Stand. I think my Stand will definitely have the ability to make me liked by everyone. After all, the Mysterious Person said that the Stand will evolve according to the person's spiritual transformation. I think this will definitely not go wrong!"

Suddenly, a wave of naming their Stands emerged in the group, although everyone hadn't even obtained a Stand yet.

Kuroneko: "Fantasizing again. But after the Mysterious Person finishes dealing with the matters in Morioh Town, does anyone in the group want to form a group to visit Morioh Town? According to the Mysterious Person's explanation, as long as we stabilize our mentality and get selected by those extraterrestrial meteorites, we shouldn't awaken that kind of negative Stand."

Menma: "Ummm, if everyone fails to awaken in Morioh Town, I can also help awaken here. But first, everyone has to live in the Chichibu area for a year or so. I'm really sorry..."

After retreating for more than half a month, Honma Meiko had officially come out of seclusion. However, as the treasure of Chichibu Shrine, in order to prevent being taken away by the Association of Shinto Shrines using special means, she still couldn't go out casually these days and had to continue learning to control her power.

Even if she wanted to give some benefits to the girls in the group, after understanding it, she knew that because her own power came from the Chichibu Ley Line, even if she wanted to help people awaken supernatural power, the other party had to have the aura of the Chichibu area, otherwise the failure rate would be very high.

To ensure the success rate, one had to settle in Chichibu for at least a year.

So knowing this, the girls in the group temporarily gave up the idea of clinging to Honma Meiko's thigh.

However, if they really encountered any danger, running to Chichibu City to seek protection could be considered a way out.

Shiina Mashiro: "But I kind of want this. [Screenshot of Persona.JPG]"

Tyrant Eye: "Is it the Persona mentioned by the Mysterious Person? It is indeed a bit intriguing. Things related to goddesses shouldn't be bad."

"Persona (Personality Mask). If it is related to masks, I feel it matches my Tyrant Eye very well!"

Kuroneko: "Enough with the chuunibyou. Even Yukino-nee who got the Byakugan doesn't pretend as much as you."

Tyrant Eye: "That was a mistake in my judgment and I missed this reward. When I get a lottery opportunity next time, I will definitely get the strongest Tyrant Eye!"

Ayami (Sudou Ayami): "Uh, actually this Persona... shouldn't have anything to do with goddesses. Because it was originally a spin-off series of the main work (Shin Megami Tensei), that's why it's called Ibunroku (Persona)..."

Sudou Ayami, who had already used back her original name, finally sent her message in the group again on the day her parents confirmed their divorce, after being silent in the group for more than half a month.

"?"

Accompanying an unmemorable name speaking in the group, and saying something quite professional, after a moment of silence in the chat group, a series of question marks were suddenly spammed.

And Sudou Ayami followed what the Mysterious Person explained before, describing the reward she obtained as the Otherworld Navigation APP from Persona 5, and attached some simple worldview explanations.

Ayami: "It's pretty much like this. I explored the Metaverse all night yesterday. After encountering danger, I awakened the Persona 'Tomoe Gozen', and then found the Shadows of my parents through the APP on my phone, successfully defeated their Shadows, and let them divorce smoothly today."

"..."

With Sudou Ayami's explanation, a series of exclamation marks and ellipses seemed to express the attitude of these girls.

A certain Umaru peeping in the dark instantly broke down even more.

UMR: "Unfair, unfair!!"

"Can make money, can obtain supernatural items and abilities, and can even directly change others' hearts. This reward is too overpowered. I demand a redraw!"

Sudou Ayami: "Uh... actually, it seems I can also upload this APP to the group, but there seems to be a quota limit. Girls in Tokyo can try it and see if you can download it to your phones."

"Sudou Ayami uploaded a group file with a download limit of 4 and limited to members in the Tokyo area."

In just three seconds, the words "Group file has expired" appeared in the group.

UMR: "..."

"I just went to open a bottle of Coke. Can you give me another chance?"
