After Kirito and the others separated from Nichang, they hurried to the location of Kirito's Space-Time Treasure. After the incident with Aizen and Nichang, the four of them were obviously depressed, especially Kirito, who was depressed all day long. Wise Joe Yifeng and the others knew that Kirito was blaming himself for not making Nichang happier.
However, everyone knew that this had nothing to do with Kirito. However, they did not know how to persuade Kirito. The four of them walked leisurely on the road to the Space-Time Treasure, cultivating as they walked.
Sometimes, Kirito would still fight with the Hollow in his inner world, trying to improve his strength. However, he always failed. Every time, Kirito would lie in his inner world, exhausted, and let the water in his inner world drown him.
The mysterious man looked at Kirito lying in the water, exhausted. Seeing Kirito's exhausted appearance, the mysterious man said seriously, "In your current state, no matter how you challenge me, you won't win."
Kirito lay in the water weakly. When he heard the mysterious man's words, he struggled to get up and said, "I don't want to defeat you now. I just want to find something to do."
The mysterious man was a little surprised when he heard this. He looked at Kirito and said, "You don't look like the kind of person who is easily discouraged. Why do you suddenly say such dejected words?"
Kirito did not say anything. He slowly walked out of his inner world. These days, Kirito had learned how to control himself to enter and exit his inner world. The mysterious man looked at Kirito's back as he gradually walked away. He shook his head and finally disappeared.
Kirito did not have the energy to do anything recently. It was not that he did not want to do anything, but that he was powerless. Kirito sat on the ground, enjoying the cool breeze. When he thought of Nichang leaving sadly, Kirito felt that he was useless recently.
He wanted to help Nichang, but in the end, Nichang went back sadly. He wanted to help those souls and tried his best to fulfill the responsibility of a Grim Reaper. However, Kirito still could not prevent those souls from being devoured. Kirito closed his eyes helplessly. Just as Kirito was immersed in his inner world.
Wise Joe Yifeng came over and said nothing. He sat beside Kirito. Kirito felt Wise Joe Yifeng's breath. He did not speak or look back. He gave Wise Joe Yifeng a bottle of drink.
Wise Joe Yifeng took it and took a sip. Looking at the scenery in front of him, he said, "It seems that it has not been so quiet for a long time."
Kirito looked at Wise Joe Yifeng and said, "I feel that you have experienced something."
Looking into Kirito's eyes, Wise Joe Yifeng said, "Kirito, you just have to do your best. No matter what, you will not let the people around you down."
Hearing this, Kirito smiled bitterly and said, "I am not as powerful as you think."
Wise Joe Yifeng looked at Kirito and said, "You are a Grim Reaper. However, being a Grim Reaper is a kind of duty. You are not a real Grim Reaper. Your ability is limited. Therefore, if you do your best, no one will blame you. None of this is your problem. Do you understand?
Kirito. "
Wise Joe Yifeng said earnestly to Kirito. Wise Joe Yifeng had seen Kirito's behavior these days. Wise Joe Yifeng had never seen such a dispirited Kirito. Wise Joe Yifeng felt distressed, but he did not know how to help Kirito. When Wise Joe Yifeng came out of the place where he lived, he saw Kirito's lonely figure at first glance.
Kirito was stunned when he heard Wise Joe Yifeng's words. There was some enlightenment in his eyes, but there was still some hesitation. Wise Joe Yifeng knew that Kirito was hesitating about Nichang.
Wise Joe Yifeng pretended to be naughty and said, "You are worried about Nichang, aren't you?
Don't worry. Nichang is with the family now. Nothing will happen to her. Besides, Kazumi Kuroki and I are not as important as Nichang in your heart. "
Kirito was relieved when he heard Wise Joe Yifeng's words at first. However, when he heard Wise Joe Yifeng's teasing, he blushed and said, "I am just a little worried about her. Why does it sound so different when it comes to your mouth?"
Wise Joe Yifeng pouted and snorted, saying, "Who knows what you are thinking? I can't read your mind."
Kirito looked at Wise Joe Yifeng's expression and couldn't help showing a long-lost smile. He got up and said to Wise Joe Yifeng, "Why don't you go back early? The wind is so strong. What if you can't get up tomorrow?"
Wise Joe Yifeng saw Kirito's smile and eyes and knew that Kirito had figured it out. Wise Joe Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief. Kirito was more comfortable like this.
Wise Joe Yifeng was just about to get up when a hand suddenly appeared in front of him. Wise Joe Yifeng was stunned. He looked up and saw Kirito. Wise Joe Yifeng smiled and put his hand on Kirito's hand. Both of them entered their rooms with smiles.
Kirito didn't enter his inner world for a long time. Instead, he entered the state of cultivation and readjusted his state. Wise Joe Yifeng in the dream also showed a rare smile.
The next morning, Kirito got up first, which was rare. He packed his luggage and waited for Wise Joe Yifeng's people. Wise Joe Yifeng saw Kirito in high spirits. Except for Wise Joe Yifeng, Kazumi Kuroki and Red Monkey all looked at the energetic Kirito in a daze.
Kirito showed a smile that he hadn't shown these days. He looked at Kazumi Kuroki and others and said, "What are you doing?
Don't you recognize me? Let's go. The Space-Time Key reminds me that the time is getting closer. "
Kazumi Kuroki and Red Monkey were stunned by Kirito's enthusiasm. They didn't even believe that this was Kirito.
Kazumi Kuroki and Red Monkey looked at each other and smiled. Although they didn't know why Kirito suddenly figured it out, they felt very sad when they saw Kirito's depressed appearance these days. Wise Joe Yifeng took the lead to follow Kirito. Kazumi Kuroki smiled and pushed the stunned Red Monkey. She said, "Let's go. Follow Kirito."
The four of them gradually began to adapt to Nichang's absence along the way. They didn't forget about Nichang. Instead, they put their sadness in their hearts and worked hard to improve their strength. Only in this way could they really help Nichang.
As Kirito and others got closer to the location provided by the Space-Time Key, Kirito's forehead became brighter and brighter. They could even vaguely see the shape of the snake-shaped key. Kirito had no choice but to cover his forehead with a piece of black cloth.
The location indicated by the Space-Time Key was originally a barren place with very few Voids. However, now Kirito felt that there were a lot of soul fluctuations here. Not only were there humans, but there were also Voids.
Kirito thought that it would not be easy to get the treasure this time.
