My Iyashikei Game

The survivors hadn’t felt so free in a long time already. The ghosts hidden in the buildings didn’t dare to come out. Humans regained control of the city. After five years, the center finally launched another mission on a Strange Building.

“Turns out they know fear too.”

The cars rolled through the city and stopped around Deep Sea Aquarium. The survivors who had been living in fear surrounded Deep Sea Aquarium. Humans appeared so small before the large ghost territory, but no one retreated. Various devices were placed on the streets around the Strange Building. Everyone was in place. They faced the sea, and the sun shone on them. The road to the front door of the aquarium was cleared away. The center didn’t plan to do anything sneaking. They were going to push from the front.

Sunlight shone on a Taoist robe. A lone figure walked towards the aquarium. The elder looked over 100. However, his figure was straight and he held a large axe.

“I don’t think I’ve seen him before.” Han Fei exited the car.

“He’s the vice-captain of the judgement department, Zhu Xie. He has meditative persona with eight awakenings.” Dong Quan looked at the man with respect. “I hear he’s the person closest to the ninth awakening in the center.”

“Meditative persona?” Zhu Xie wore a taoist robe, but he didn’t look like a Taoist at all. He felt more like a murderer. The sun shone behind him. The elder stood alone before the aquarium front door and closed his eyes. His beard and hair fluttered in the wind. When the sun rose fully, the eight streets around the aquarium roared with the sound of cockerels. The elder’s eyes flew open. A white horse that represented his consciousness crashed into the sky.

The sharp axe chopped the front door. The wooden splinters were lit up in the air and became embers. The elder’s consciousness influenced real life. The things he thought became realized.

The other members lit joss sticks, lifted the altar, and palanquin, and tossed the sacrifices into the air. The fire rose into the sky.

“Karma will come around.” The presence on the elder expanded. He looked at the endless sea and slowly raised his axe.

His mind combined with his religion. This was the God he served. This was the God that gave him the bravery to face the ghosts.

The clouds that forever covered the city were torn apart. Thunder roared. The elder stood in the howling wind. He stood facing away from humanity and had a condescending smile on ghosts on his face.

The elder focused his attention on his hands and slashed the axe!

The ghost territory was torn apart. The black sea was cut through. He turned back to look at others. Then, he walked towards the aquarium. “The ghost territory has been cut open! Attention to all battle units! The hunt starts now!”

The sound of the engine overwhelmed the sound of waves. The members followed the elder and entered the ghost territory.

“The elder is impressive!” Han Fei also didn’t expect someone could tear apart a Top Pure Hatred’s ghost territory.

“He is.” Dong Xuan looked at the elder with respect. “Some Taoists stayed on the mountains but his temple came down at the first sign of trouble. The elder’s 36 disciples were all killed by ghosts. He’s the only one left of his temple.”

“No wonder his presence of murder is so strong.”

“You’re wrong. He only targets ghosts. Normally, he’s a very kind elder.” Dong Quan was ready to fight. “Actually, you can see that from his meditated God. He respects heaven and earth. That’s why he’s the vice-captain of the judgment department. He’s always fair.”

“Stop chatting. It’s time for you to go.” Xue Ba sent a truckload of devices to Han Fei. “You have to succeed. There is no other choice.”

“I’ll try my best.”

Team 13 gathered and entered the Deep Sea Aquarium. Ever since Han Fei took away Gao Cheng’s memory, Gao Xing’s eyes which were made from his memory spiraled into madness. The ghost territory almost lost control. It was five times larger than before. The inside of the ghost territory was even scarier. Mutated ghosts wandered everywhere. They were extremely hard to kill. If they touched the black water, they would be healed. If they didn’t deal with God’s eyes, the aquarium would kill everyone.

“All patrols are ready!”

“The transportation teams have set up all the devices!” “Investigations teams are ready!”

“Logistic teams have finished examination! All the devices are working fine!”

Reports came from the black band. After the experience at the mental hospital, the center was prepared this time.

“Start the movement now!”

The special black vehicles opened. A pair of twins walked out. They looked similar and they were both persona users with seven awakenings. When one was asleep, the other could borrow their power to temporarily reach the eighth awakening. Alongside Zhu Xie, Fu Lie, and the vice captain of the logistics department, the center had sent out four persona users with eighth awakenings. That was their limit. The four stood at four corner of the aquarium. Each held a special chain. The end of the chain was a platform floating on the water. The platform was prepared for Han Fei. The plan was made for Han Fei’s sake. He needed to consume Gao Xing’s memory. Before then, the center would do everything to suppress Gao Xing’s memory. The plan was simple, but if they made one mistake, they would all die.

“Be careful. We’ll wait for your return.” Yan Lan and Tou Qi were worried. Han Fei wasn’t worried.

He stepped on the chains and walked over the black water. Standing on the middle platform, Han Fei sank into his mind. He looked at the boy who sat between the starlight and the abyss. Brother Chou’s soul had disappeared. His dominating persona was taken over by Fear Demon and became part of Gao Cheng.

“Are you ready?” Han Fei walked to the boy. “It’s time for your turn. Give him back the despair he has given you!” Holding the boy’s hand, Han Fei walked under the healing starlight. He stopped hiding Gao Cheng’s presence. The greed abyss opened. Gao Cheng’s painful memory was the best lure. The giant monster hidden underwater was instantly attracted. The black water boiled. The shadow quickly approached.

“It’s coming!”

The waves rose. God’s eyes focused on Gao Cheng’s memory. It wanted to torture the boy that stole his fate!

Endless ghosts combined to form a large body. It swallowed the platform and Han Fei in one gulp. The four chains tightened and stuck in the Pure Hatred’s mouth. The devices were all activated. More than 100 persona users attacked the eyes. Everyone saw Han Fei being swallowed. They understood Han Fei was risking his life to do this. They had lost too many people. They couldn’t lose more.

“Kill him!” Fear was a strange emotion. Most of the time, it would hold people back, but sometimes, it would trigger people’s potential. The persona users held the end of the chains. They did everything to prevent the eyes from sinking back underwater. No one dared to hold back.

Han Fei used the paper doll to protect his body. He opened the abyss inside God’s body. He used the other Pure Hatred’s ghost territory to fight this one.

“We’re almost there!”

Han Fei crawled to God’s eyes. The purpose this time was to help Gao Cheng take back his eyes.

“Fate is back at the crossroads again.”

Four Pure Hatreds led the way. When Han Fei touched God’s eyes, he released Gao Cheng’s memory. He used the starlight to light the way to send Gao Cheng’s memory and dominating persona into God’s eyes. The giant ghost howled.

Han Fei subconsciously wanted to pull his arm back but a giant force yanked him into God’s eyes too.

Gao Xing’s memory formed a storm. They cut Han Fei. He tried his best to stay calm as he kept an eye on Gao Cheng, who was moving ahead. Part of the memories in God’s eyes came from Gao Cheng. They returned in time.

Somewhere inside the aquarium, two boys sat on a bench.

One of them was blind but had the best outfit. He listened to the laughter of people and the sounds of waves. His face was filled with envy.

The other boy was ashamed. He hid his dirty shoes away and looked at the boy beside him with jealousy.
