"The First Spirit appeared before you yesterday," I said with a subtle tone.

"Huh??" Hearing this, Kurumi Tokisaki's eyes widened, her pupils constricting, her heart pounding violently. She almost thought she had misheard.

Her heterochromatic eyes, one red and one gold, stared intently at me standing before her.

What did she just hear??

The First Spirit she had been painstakingly searching for years had appeared before her yesterday, yet she had been completely unaware?

Recalling the hatred she had accumulated for that First Spirit over the years—

And thinking about how she had the audacity to appear so brazenly before her yesterday—Kurumi was thoroughly enraged.

'What does that damned First Spirit mean by this? Is the First Spirit playing with me? Mocking me??'

"Who is it? Who is the First Spirit??" As if unable to suppress the anger in her heart any longer, Kurumi Tokisaki stared intently at me and asked urgently.

"Uh, Kurumi, can you not look at me like that? I have no deep-seated hatred with you." Facing Kurumi's hateful gaze, my heart skipped a beat, a chill running down my spine.

'A yandere-fied Kurumi, when angry, is a bit scary.'

Looking at Kurumi's hateful little expression before me, I sighed helplessly. "Sigh, I knew you'd be this angry after I told you this. But I still advise you to calm down."

Hearing this, Kurumi, having calmed down from her anger, looked at me and sneered coldly, "Heh! Hibari-kun, if our roles were reversed, I wonder if you could calm down!"

"That's true. But I still advise you to give up. You're no match for her! After all, the gap between you and her is too vast."

"Words are cheap. No matter what, I will not give up on this matter!" Towards my suggestion, Kurumi's opposition was firm.

"So, you're still planning to do whatever it takes to resurrect your friend Sawa Yamauchi, whom you killed by mistake?"

Hearing my question, Kurumi's eyes met mine firmly, and she explained her plan without reservation.

"As long as I go back thirty years and kill the First Spirit, not only will the Great Eurasian Skyquake not happen, but those innocent girls won't die either. All the tragedies will be prevented..."

"Is that so? Then I can't agree."

"Why? Are you trying to stop me?" Kurumi's brow furrowed slightly, her gaze towards me carrying a hint of vigilance.

Towards Kurumi's wary gaze, I simply ignored it and said leisurely, "Firstly, whether your plan can succeed is an unknown. Secondly, my purpose in coming to this world was precisely for you Spirit girls."

"Furthermore, even if you go back thirty years, facing the First Spirit, you'd just be throwing your life away. So... you should just give up!"

Coming to this world??

Isn't this a term that only appears in novels? Could it be he's not from this world? This is ridiculous!

Kurumi's eyes widened, her heart pounding. However, she only held a skeptical attitude towards this and didn't choose to believe it.

Looking at the still persistent girl, who refused to give up easily, I then proposed, "If you're prepared to give up this plan, I can help you realize your dream."

"Realize my dream?"

"That's right. But can you answer a question for me first? Spirits generally invert when they lose control of their emotions and are in despair. After you killed your friend Sawa Yamauchi by mistake, do you remember ever inverting?"

Looking at the black-haired girl before me, I asked meaningfully.

"Inverting? I didn't experience an inversion at that time!" Kurumi Tokisaki touched her chin with a finger, looking at me with confusion, then recalled the past sorrowful events and sighed with emotion.

"So far, it seems there's nothing in this world that could make me invert."

'Now that I have nothing to tie me down, I'm single-mindedly focused on completing my wish...'

After a moment of silence, I carefully observed the black-haired girl before me.

Faintly, I could see another white-haired girl in her.

Immediately, I revealed a strange look, my tone grave. "As expected, Kurumi has no impression of that matter anymore."

"But, Kurumi, did you know? You have inverted once before. And, your inverted personality is a completely independent personality."

"Huh? What do you mean my inverted personality is not my personality, but an independent one?" At once, Kurumi was completely bewildered by this massive amount of information from me.

She didn't know what I was talking about. Besides, when had she ever inverted? Why did she have no impression of it at all??

Seeing this, I didn't intend to hide it any longer and directly stated the truth of what happened back then.

"Back then, after you killed Sawa Yamauchi, you were on the verge of inverting but managed to return to a normal state in time using the Fourth Bullet."

"After returning to normal, you learned of the First Spirit's purpose but were sent to the neighboring world by her, until you returned to the real world."

"However, your friend Sawa, who was killed by you back then, happened to fall into the neighboring world and merged with your inverted form to become the White Queen."

"To put it more simply, your other personality after you invert is your friend, Sawa Yamauchi!"

CRACK!!!

"Wh-What??" Hearing my words, Kurumi Tokisaki looked as if she had been struck by lightning, instantly dumbfounded.

She wanted to suppress the shock in her heart and keep calm, but she couldn't manage it.

After all, this information was too outrageous...

A long while later, it wasn't until I called out to Kurumi again and again that she managed to recover from her dazed state.

Immediately, after Kurumi Tokisaki stabilized her emotions, she asked me beside her with confusion and curiosity, "You just said Sawa merged with my inverted form? What exactly does that mean?"

"What else could it mean? It's exactly as it sounds,"

After saying this, I could clearly feel Kurumi's murderous gaze and couldn't help but smile sheepishly. "The soul of Sawa Yamauchi, who died back then, merged with your inverted form."

"In other words, ever since you killed her back then, she has become your inverted form, coexisting with you, sharing one body with you."

After my explanation, Kurumi Tokisaki's expression became vacant. She retreated two steps, almost unable to stand steady.

"Th-This... This is impossible! I don't believe it! Sawa was clearly killed by me because of that despicable woman back then! How could she coexist with me??"

"You must be lying to me! You must have learned about my past through the Second Spirit's Angel and fabricated this lie to deceive me! This is all fake..."

Stimulated, Kurumi Tokisaki stared deadly at me.

While filled with horror, a trace of fear also arose in her heart.
