The originally intermittent dream fragments completed the puzzle at this time and became clear and coherent.
Izumi Yinzhi remembered everything.
He originally thought that this process was similar to watching a movie, and he would at most have a certain sense of immersion.
But in fact, he remembered not only the "memories", but also the "emotions" in those memories.
In other words, at this moment, Izumi Yinzhi has another life in a real sense.
He held the Ghost Knight watch in his hand tightly, and the expression on his face was very complicated for a while, and it took him a while to calm down.
But when he went to see Tokiwa Shogo again, his mentality obviously changed again...
That was a change that Sougo Tokiwa loved to see.
He saw trust in Izumi Yinzhi's eyes.
Trust, what a dangerous word.
Mr. Big Blowing Ghost, you can't escape anymore... Tokiwa Shogo said with a smile: "Mr. Big Blowing Ghost, it seems that I no longer need to tell you about the necessity of correcting the history of this world."
"Yes." Izumi Yinzhi nodded, "Let the disaster that should not have lasted until today end when it should end, thus rewriting the tragedy caused by that disaster over the years... What you call [correction] is just this. Is it something?"
"Yes." Tokiwa Shougo confirmed.
Izumi Yinzhi: "..."
He lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then raised his head again to look at Tokiwa Shougo.
"I want to ask you a question..."
Having said that, Izumi Yinzhi emphasized immediately.
"But let me state in advance that I have no intention of defaulting on the bill, and I don't think the price you are charging is unfair."
Hearing this, Tokiwa Shougo's eyes widened slightly, surprised, and then suddenly realized.
"...Well, I probably know what you want to ask."
"In that case, can you answer me?" Izumi Yinzhi looked at Tokiwa Shougo seriously and said.
He was very confused. Since it was now certain that his life trajectory in the [New World] would deviate greatly from the [official history], would the changed [history] really be considered the [official history]?
He wanted to know what the Historical Administration's criteria were for determining "correct history" that did not require correction.
"King Shi, in your eyes, what kind of [history] is the [correct history]?" Izumi Yinzhi asked seriously.
Regarding Izumi Yinzhi's question, Tokiwa Shougo thought for a while and answered him.
“First, the world cannot lose its future;
“Second, civilization cannot have a future;
"Third and last..."
At this point, Tokiwa Shougo smiled and continued.
"The history we recognize is the [correct history]."
When hearing the first point, Izumi Yinzhi was thoughtful;
When he heard the second point, Izumi Yinzhi had some realization;
When he heard the third point, Izumi Yinzhi was about to express his agreement, but as soon as he nodded halfway, he froze in mid-air, raised his head in shock, and asked Tokiwa Shougo.
"Did I hear it wrong? Tell me, what is the third point?"
"I say that the history we recognize is the [correct history]."
"Uh, is this... a joke?"
"No, I'm serious."
"..."
"..."
During the long silence, an unknown anger grew stronger and stronger in Izumi Yinzhi's heart.
"King of Time! What do you think history is? A little girl who lets you dress up?" he asked angrily.
But when faced with Izumi Yinzhi's questioning, Tokiwa Shougo had an innocent and surprised expression on his face.
"What are you angry about? Mr. Bragging Ghost, obviously, you are also one of [us]... Are you dissatisfied with yourself?"
As soon as these words came out, Izumi Yinzhi's rich expression froze in his face.
"???"
Then, he looked at Tokiwa Shougo with a "What are you talking about?" expression, and opened his palms to stop him.
"Wait a minute...why can't I understand what you are saying? When did I become a member of your Historical Management Bureau?"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Tokiwa Shougo also looked at Izumi Yinori with an expression of "What are you talking about?", his expression could be replicated one to one.
"I can't understand what you are saying? When did I say that you are from our Historical Management Bureau?"
Then, he seemed to suddenly think of something and suddenly realized.
"Oh, of course, you can be too."
After saying this, a bright smile immediately appeared on Tokiwa Shogo's face, and his expression changed extremely smoothly.
During this period, Izumi Yinzhi was stunned for a while, and question marks and exclamation marks appeared one after another on his head.
Tokiwa Shougo, on the other hand, looked at Izumi Yinzhi expectantly and urged him.
"How about it? Mr. Boasting Ghost, if you want to join us, please give me the right words..."
Seeing Tokiwa Shogo pause for a moment after speaking, and then open his mouth to continue urging, Izumi Yinzhi quickly raised his palms again and pushed forward continuously, asking Tokiwa Shogo to stop his words quickly and let him take a good rest.
"Wait...wait wait! Don't talk yet!"
Hearing this, Tokiwa Shougo raised his eyebrows. He smiled silently as he achieved his goal. He didn't speak anymore, but quietly looked at Izumi Yinzhi, whose thoughts were confused.
It took a long time for Izumi Yinzhi to sort out his thoughts and react.
"...You are changing the concept secretly."
"You got emotional first."
Tokiwa Shougo smiled calmly, neither denying Izumi Yinzhi's words nor feeling ashamed of his behavior just now.
Izumi Yinzhi: "..."
He took several deep breaths in succession, and then showed his expressionless face to Tokiwa Shougo that he had calmed down.
"Okay, I've calmed down... King Shi, can you tell me now what you mean by the 'third point'?" Izumi Yinzhi asked seriously.
However, Tokiwa Shougo said: "I'm not lying or joking. Mr. Bragging Ghost, you are indeed one of [us]."
After finishing speaking, Tokiwa Shougo deliberately stopped and waited for a while, and found that Izumi Yinzhi did not get emotional again, but waited quietly for him to continue speaking, then smiled and continued.
"Mr. Hibuki Ghost, I told you before that in this world, you are the only one qualified to snatch the Earth Purification Ceremony back from the hands of the alien Hibiki Ghost.
"In other words, if you don't cooperate, then even I won't be able to stop the big snake before it completely explodes if the ritual truly fails.
"And if you don't recognize the [New World] after correcting the heterogeneous history, then how can you try your best and even risk your life to welcome the arrival of the [New World]?
】
"What do you want to protect...
"What do you want to protect...
"What do you want to achieve...
"We always have similar reasons for saving the world.
"The reason why everyone is willing to follow me is because the direction I am heading in and the new world I want to create is exactly what they yearn for and expect."
Having said this, Tokiwa Shogo stood up from his seat, looked sincerely into the eyes of Izumi Yinori across the long table, and extended an invitation to him.
“After correcting the alien timeline this time, I will realize a world without demonized spies.
"How about it? Mr. Bragging Ghost, do you want to come with us?"
A world without demonized spies?
Tokiwa Shougo's words made Izumi Yinzhi subconsciously think about this possibility.
If we follow the analogy that Tokiwa Shogo previously admitted, "Let Orochi end at the time when it should end in the original history, then all the tragedies caused by the demonized demons caused by the Orochi phenomenon over the years will be rewritten," then...
If the Demonic Demon didn't exist from the beginning, what would happen to the ghosts who died fighting against the Demonic Demon? And what will happen to those countless people who have been eaten by demonized monsters from ancient times to the present?
Even if he didn't talk about the past, only the present, Izumi Yinzhi's mind could immediately think of the voice and smile of a companion he would never see again, as well as a huge list of victims.
And as soon as he thought that they might get a new life because of the disappearance of the demon, Izumi Yinzhi couldn't help but feel hot in his heart.
He couldn't help but extend his hand to Tokiwa Shogo who had extended the invitation and agreed to the invitation...
But when he reached halfway, he stopped.
His reason stopped him.
Just like he had done before when he resisted the call of the Blank Knight Watch.
"...What's the price?" he asked.
The problem is a familiar one.
Therefore, Tokiwa Shougo's answer did not change.
"Equivalent exchange." He said, "Since the demonized demon will not be born again, then the ghosts who were born to fight against the demonized demon will not be born again... In other words, I will be born in the new world. At the same time, take away all the ghost's power.
“This is a secret that cannot be made public.
“Because people without memories of other timelines cannot understand and accept this theory.
“Therefore, we will only selectively tell a portion of the truth, paired with the right amount of lies, to allow them to assist us in realizing our new world.
“And our true purpose must be hidden from all those who cannot understand it.
"So, Mr. Blooper..."
At this point, Tokiwa Shougo once again issued a more genuine invitation to Izumi Yinzhi.
"Are you going to be our accomplice?"
"..." Izumi Yinzhi was silent for a moment and said, "My father said that in addition to King of Time, you also have a title..."
"Indeed."
"The Demon King."
"I am here."
"You are really a devil..."
"so?"
Izumi Yinzhi didn't answer, but stretched his arm forward again, tightly holding the inviting hand of Tokiwa Shougo.
He became the devil's accomplice.
