Can someone in MyGo stay in an adventure group forever?

“Xiangzi…” Shiina Ritsuki looked at her, paused for a moment, “You’ve been crying?”

"Is there anything like this?" Toyokawa Shoko subconsciously raised her left hand and touched her cheek.

The area where you touch it is wet.

"This... is tears of joy!" She couldn't help but laugh through her tears.

"Really..." Nagasaki Motoyo also started wiping away tears, "How could I possibly hold back in this situation..."

“However…” Shiina Ritsuki glanced at Toyokawa Shoko, whose eyes were red-rimmed, then looked back at Koshimura Sawa, her tone somewhat awkward, “Actually, the person we should thank the most is that Koshimura guy, right? After all, if it weren’t for him… you might have kept it to yourself until you died and never told us what happened, right?”

"I was just... afraid of dragging you all into this..." Toyokawa Shoko wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, her gaze involuntarily turning to Koshimura Sawa, a bright smile appearing on her face.

Immediately afterwards, Shiina Riki saw her run past him quickly and throw herself into Koshimura Sawa's arms.

"Thank you... Ze." Toyokawa Shoko buried her face in his shoulder, her voice muffled. "Thank you for saving me..."

No, why is this my business?

According to the standard script, shouldn't you two be having a lively and touching conversation right now, and then leaving me hanging?

Oh, so this is the plot I wrote myself, not a script written by the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University. Oh well, it's alright then.

Koshimura hesitated for only a moment before reaching out and pulling her into a tight embrace, gently patting her back.

"It's alright, it's alright..."

Shiina Riki watched this scene and suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, as if a murderous aura was emanating from below.

She looked down and saw Nagasaki Motoyo with wet tear stains on her face, looking at her with a resentful expression.

"...What's wrong?" Shiina Riki felt a chill run down her spine from her gaze and asked instinctively.

"It's nothing." Nagasaki Motoyo instantly switched back to a perfect smile, looking at Toyokawa Shoko who was still leaning against Koshimura Sawa's chest. "So... Shoko, what are your plans for the future?"

Toyokawa Shoko seemed to realize that the position was a bit too intimate, so she quickly stepped out of Koshimura Sawa's arms and sat back in her original position. Her face was still slightly flushed, and she awkwardly smoothed her hair: "Me?... I haven't thought about it yet."

"However... I'll probably continue forming an adventure team while searching for a solution." She looked down at her prosthetic arm. "I guess... I still don't want to give up like this."

“I heard there’s a potion that can extend people’s lifespan…” Shiina Riki immediately chimed in, “That wildcat who always runs to RiNG seems to have an elder who’s a very skilled professional. If we have the chance, maybe we can ask her to ask her about it.”

Nagasaki Motoyo chimed in, "Speaking of which, I seem to have heard of something that can..."

"That's wonderful." Sitting on the hospital bed, Koshimura Sawa looked at the girls who were having a lively discussion not far away and couldn't help but sigh softly.

“Yeah…” Chihaya Aine, sitting next to him, rested her chin on her hands, her cheeks puffed out, looking rather unhappy, and muttered softly, “But why… do I feel inexplicably annoyed…”

"What's wrong? Feeling left out?" Yuecun Ze couldn't help but chuckle at her awkward expression. "Don't worry, they're just a little too excited because they finally cleared up the misunderstanding. And who says you can't make new friends just because you've made up with old ones?"

"Besides, I'm staying here specifically to keep you company, aren't I?"

"Huh?" Chihaya Aine paused for a moment, then turned to look at him in surprise.

She thought he was sitting so far away because he couldn't stand the cheesy atmosphere, but she never expected that he stayed to keep her company.

sawarin...why do you always seem so talkative and carefree, but become so thoughtful in situations like this...?

This is... way too unfair...

"Actually... it's not entirely because of that..." she whispered in defense, glancing at Koshimura Sawa's arm, which had just been holding onto Toyokawa Shoko's. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and her fingers unconsciously twirled a strand of hair that fell over her shoulder. "Besides, even if you say that, I won't feel particularly happy... hehe."

Tang Xiao started laughing again.

"By the way, did you—" Koshimura Sawa seemed to suddenly remember something.

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a cold, slippery sensation on his ankle, as if something was crawling up his trouser leg.

He looked down and saw a black, slime-like liquid.

Wait... this texture feels kind of familiar.

"Holy crap!" Yuecunze jumped up with a start, scrambling to roll to the other side of the bed, only peeking out half his head, looking in horror at the spot where he had just been sitting.

Why is that black Gu from the trench still chasing me?!

"Sawarin?" Chihaya Aine was also startled and quickly turned to look at him. "What's wrong?"

Koshimura Sawa stretched a hand out from under the bed, pointing at the black mass: "Th-th-what is that thing?!"

"Ah, you mean Kuro?" Chihaya Aine breathed a sigh of relief, bent down and picked it up. "It seems that Zero's father said that it can't be kept at home, so Akari has had to keep it in the astrology club's activity room. When we were preparing to come see you, it seemed to really want to come, rolling around on the floor, so we had no choice but to bring it along."

"That's not right." Koshimura Sawa narrowed his eyes, looking at it suspiciously. "Why didn't I see it when I came in? When did you let it out?"

"Please." Chihaya Aine held it up to her eyes and gestured with her hand. "It's not even as tall as the bed leg, and it likes to hide in the shadows, so it's strange that you can even see it, okay?"

“...That's true.” Yuecun Ze breathed a sigh of relief, rolled back onto the bed, and sat down next to Aine again, looking at the black Gu that Aine had placed on her lap. “But...where did this thing come from? I don't remember seeing it before?”

Just then, the surface of the black Gu suddenly rippled, and several words appeared.

I am your father.

VII尔彡陵飼〇咎祁叁⒋宭越村泽：：......

Chihaya Aine: “…”

The air suddenly became quiet.

“Aine,” Koshimura Sawa said expressionlessly.

"Uh-huh?"

"Burn it for me."

"Wait, wait, wait!" Chihaya Aine quickly reached out to protect it. "I think it might not mean that... it just doesn't quite understand... uh, human vocabulary?"

As if to confirm her words, the writing on the surface of the black Gu changed instantly.

You are my father.

“That’s more like it.” Koshimura stroked his chin thoughtfully for a moment. “But when did I get a son… wait—”

Looking at the familiar color and shape, he suddenly felt a strange sense of warmth.

Could it be that I accidentally peed it out that day?

Wait a minute, wasn't it only the size of a ping-pong ball back then? How come it's the size of a bowl now? That doesn't make sense!

Just then, the writing on the surface of the black Gu changed again.

[Takamatsu Akira is my mother.]

“Sawarin.” Chihaya Aine’s voice was frighteningly calm.

"Hmm?" Koshimura suddenly felt a chill rise from behind.

"Indeed...it's better to burn it, isn't it?" She silently reached out and picked up the electric guitar leaning against the wall.

"Wait, calm down, the child is just joking and doesn't understand—" Yuecunze quickly said.

"What? You're not going back to Crychic?" A surprised voice suddenly rang out from not far away.

Koshimura Sawa and Chihaya Aine turned their heads in unison.

"Why?" Nagasaki Motoyo looked at Toyokawa Shoko anxiously. "We didn't understand each other's thoughts before, which led to various misunderstandings. Now that the misunderstandings have finally been cleared up, wouldn't it be too lonely if we all went our separate ways like this?"

“But… Su Shi, you must have noticed by now,” Toyokawa Shoko interrupted her helplessly, sighing, “Crychic’s member roles were never properly assigned… Our fighting styles clash greatly, and our teamwork is… well, let’s just say it’s not great…”

That's true. Warrior, mage, bard, druid, priest—the whole team only had one and a half front-line fighters. When I was a kid, I watched this episode and got shot into a pincushion by the four goblin kings of the Vandarin mines.

"And... as you all know, I can no longer use that ability, and I can no longer use time reversal to help you like before."

“An adventure team like Crychic, which relies too much on one person as its core, is inherently unreasonable and fragile.” Toyokawa Shoko raised her head, her golden eyes quietly sweeping over her former teammates. “I also hope that you can find a new direction that truly suits you, and walk your own path, instead of living in the past protected by ‘rewind’.”

“So…” she took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, “in order for me to truly face my destiny independently, and for you all to have a brighter future, I have decided… to form a brand new adventure team.”

"How could this be..." Nagasaki Motoyo seemed to have all her strength drained away, and she lowered her head in despair. "Crychic... is it really gone forever?"

“...Yes.” Although Toyokawa Shoko seemed somewhat reluctant, she nodded firmly. “Crychic...is over.”

"Let it remain a beautiful memory forever in the past."

Gao Songdeng, who was standing to the side, also lowered his head in disappointment and tightly gripped the hem of his clothes.

"I see." Nagasaki Motoyo tried to calm herself down, forcing a smile as she said, "Well... Sho, I wish you—"

Motoyo Nagasaki! What are you doing?!

Do you really want to say that incredibly powerful thing?

If this continues, he'll really become King Ting!

"Wait!" Yuecun Ze finally couldn't hold back any longer and interrupted this scene full of bad ending atmosphere with his voice.

All eyes immediately turned to him.

"I'm telling you..." He rubbed his temples with a hint of helplessness, "You guys are just not in the same adventure team anymore, it's not like you're going to be separated forever and never see each other again. Even if you're not teammates anymore, can't you still be friends?"

"Huh?" Nagasaki Motoyo was taken aback. "Is that so?"

It seems that in the world of girl bands, leaving the band is almost equivalent to death.

It's so cruel to kill someone just for such a reason.

"Of course," Koshimura tried to instill common sense in them. "Even if you're not in the same adventure group, it doesn't stop you from being each other's most important friends. Whenever you want, you can always get together for meals, shopping, or team building activities. It's not like you'll never see each other again, so why are you so sad?"

Nagasaki Motoyo opened her mouth, feeling that her worldview had been greatly impacted.

So... leaving the group isn't such a heavy thing after all?

“In that case…” Takamatsu Akari suddenly raised her head, her clear eyes regaining their sparkle, and looked at Toyokawa Shoko, saying with utmost seriousness, “We’ll be friends for life!”

"Yes!" Toyokawa Shoko nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with emotion and a smile. "Let's be friends for life!"

“Me too!” Shiina Tatsuki quickly added.

"Me too!" Nagasaki Motoyo immediately realized, the gloom on her face vanished instantly, and a genuine smile appeared.

so good.

Looking at the girls gathered together, their smiles tinged with tears, Koshimura couldn't help but smile with relief.

When the work is done, he will leave, hiding his achievements and fame.

Just then, an apple, washed until it was crystal clear and still covered with water droplets, was suddenly handed to him.

"Well done, Sawarin~" Chihaya Aine looked at him, tilted her head and smiled, her pink hair swaying gently with the movement, "Here's an apple for you."

Ah, Chihaya Aine, my little sun, the light of my life, the fire of my desire...

Wait a minute, doesn't the second half of the sentence sound a bit off?

Koshimura Sawa reached out and took the apple. He glanced at the guitar that Chihaya Aine was holding and the water balloon floating in front of her.

Washing apples with "water-making magic"... I feel like you're wasting your talents on this.

He mentally complained as he lowered his head and took a bite.

The sweet juice bursts in your mouth instantly.

"Hmm? This apple is so sweet," he said, somewhat surprised.

“That’s right~” Chihaya Aine proudly raised her little face, “After all, I carefully selected it.”

Koshimura glanced at the opened fruit basket on the ground: "But...didn't Riki buy this?"

"Huh?" Chihaya Aine's expression froze on her face. She blinked a couple of times, then quickly said without batting an eye, "That's because I washed it with water full of love, that's why it became so sweet!"

Subjective idealism? You win, Chihaya Aion.

Next time, could we skip these unnecessary steps and just drink the water that's full of heartfelt sentiment?

Koshimura Sawa conceded defeat, picked up a purple berry from the plate on the bedside table, and handed it to her: "Here, Shinmei."

"Huh? Can I eat this?" Chihaya Aine took it with a hint of surprise.

"Oh, actually I've never eaten it before. I wanted you to test it for poison first."

A few black lines immediately appeared on Chihaya Aine's forehead as she muttered, "Sawarin, actually, the tsundere archetype has already regressed..."

Really? Why are you telling me this...?

She held the divine strawberry, curiously raised it to her lips, and gently took a small bite with her pearly white teeth.

The plump, juicy berries burst open, and the purple juice splashed precisely into the eyes of Koshimura Sawa, who was sitting to the side.

Wow, there's even diffraction!

Diffraction is indeed authoritative, but I actually prefer the Annihilation team.
