Chapter 360 1 Assumption
Paimon floated in front of Sora and asked, "Who are you? 'You've been waiting for us for a long time'... Could it be that you deliberately led us here?!"
Then, Paimon's attention was attracted by the person lying behind the girl: "Ah?! Isn't that Dina Zedai? Why is she lying here? Didn't she just talk to us?!"
Kong held his forehead, a strong sense of familiarity coming over him again.
The white-haired girl blinked: "You should have realized that what just happened is something you have experienced more than once."
Sora and Paimon were both stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Paimon stroked his hair: "But we don't remember everything."
"Then try this." The girl held out her hand. A glowing vessel was suspended in her palm. "Do you know how to use it?"
Paimon's eyes widened slightly: "Is this...canned knowledge?"
"Well, I've sealed all your past experiences in it. Accept it and you'll be able to remember everything," said the girl.
Kong hesitated for only a moment, and he realized that he had a genuine trust in the girl in front of him. He believed that this feeling was not groundless, so he reached out and covered her with his hand.
When Paimon heard about the benefits of this canned knowledge, he couldn't wait to reach out for it.
The knowledge in the canned knowledge quickly flooded into the two people's minds, and many images immediately appeared in their minds.
"Ah, it turns out we have experienced the same day several times!" Paimon exclaimed.
The girl nodded: "You should remember me now."
Sora rubbed his forehead and said, "Thank you, Nashida."
Paimon asked confusedly, "But why are we stuck on the same day?"
Narcida: "Well, that is what we are trying to find out now, traveler. What do you think? Are we trapped in the same day?"
Kong thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't seem to be the case. I remember that when we first assisted Dishia in seizing the God's canned knowledge, the thirty-man group came very quickly."
"The next few times they came after we found the God's Canned Knowledge! Ugh, damn it! They were so close to taking it away!"
Recalling those experiences, Paimon couldn't help but stomped his feet in the air.
"But, if we are not trapped in the same day, then why do we experience the same thing over and over again?" Paimon asked again after calming down.
Sora held his chin in his hand and thought for a moment, then guessed, "...maybe we have forgotten the past."
"Traveler, do you mean that someone has tampered with our memory?" Paimon looked horrified.
"No, that's not right. If that's the case, the surrounding environment cannot but change..." Kong quickly denied this guess.
"Uh..." Paimon was suspended in the air in confusion. She could hardly keep up with Sora's thoughts.
"...Perhaps, we are trapped in a continuously looping space, and all objects in this space, including memories, will return to their original state after twenty-four hours." Kong hesitated for a moment and spoke again.
"Well, this is a reasonable guess." Nashida did not comment. "Then how do you plan to verify it?"
Sora said calmly, "Try to get out of this space."
"I see. Generally speaking, such fields of powerful strength have certain range limitations, just like you can't let a wild lizardfowl master both the elements of fire and ice at the same time." Nashida nodded.
"Aren't there those that can use two elements to trick the flower?" Paimon muttered softly, "...There are also those that use three elements."
null:
1. It's not 'wild.'
2. "A tribute to the legendary undercover agent Harold."】
Nashida tilted her head, as if she didn't understand what Sora was saying: "Then go and give it a try, Traveler."
Kong nodded and said to Paimon, "Let's go take a look outside Xumi City."
The two men arrived at the gate of Xumi City, but were stopped by the thirty-man team guarding the city.
"According to the order of the great sage, you are not allowed to leave Xumi City today!" said a member of the thirty-man team guarding the city sternly.
"What if I have to leave the city for something urgent?" Sora asked.
"It's very dangerous outside the city. If you leave now, you will do so at your own risk."
Sora: "I will take responsibility for my own life."
"Then go ahead."
The thirty-man group made way for them, and their indifferent attitude startled Sora and Paimon.
"...Traveler." Paimon called out worriedly.
Sora smiled at her, "Paimon, wait for me here. I'll be back soon."
(I'm a writer, I'll think about how to connect it over the weekend.
