Chapter 1701
Chapter 1701
Early morning...
Astrea, Ikaros, Mikoto, and Hinagiku stared in front.
They looked at Wu Yan who was holding Flan and Yukari who was constantly yawning near him.
"Master..."
Ikaros voiced her concern.
"Can't I go too?"
"You don't need us?"
Hinagiku asked.
"There are strong gods and Youkais there but we are also tier 9, I think we can probably go toe to toe against them, right?"
Gensokyo is a special sub-area of the Gensokyo universe.
There are humans, Youkais, gods, and other races there but it isn't a sci-fi universe like SAO.
Gensokyo is normally not accessible to normal humans in that universe.
And for good reasons too.
Various creatures of legends and myths resided there.
And, it is separated from the normal realm by the Great Hakurei Barrier.
It is also further augmented by the Youkai Sage, https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Yukari_Yakumopower of Boundaries. Specifically, the Boundary of Reality and Fantasy.
With this, it is normally not possible for crossings between the normal realm and Gensokyo.
Imagine gods, demons, and monsters causing chaos if they went into the normal realm.
Flan's power and past should hint at the ramifications of not keeping them separated.
Flandre is powerful in Gensokyo but she isn't one of the top dogs there. Yukari is in that league.
Flan was already tier 9 when summoned. Ikaros, Hinagiku, Mikoto, and Astrea had the qualifications to enter Gensokyo.
But...
"The mission requirement stipulated that I can only bring two people with me. Yukari and Flandre are on my team."
Wu Yan explained.
"Also, don't belittle Gensokyo. But, there are far more powerful individuals there. These individuals tend to have special abilities which are hard to deal with."
Their special abilities gave them variation and potential risks when traveling to GEnsokyo.
Yukari's Boundary manipulation made her something of a god there. Flan's destructive abilities gave her absolute dominance when they fought against the Longarm Ape King who was only level 80 while Flan was at level 82. The ape never stood a chance when she was smacking the giant foe around.
There are other individuals on their levels in Gensokyo.
Hinagiku and Mikoto had no special abilities that gave them an edge over opponents.
Ikaros and Astrea can active Pandora mode but that only gave them boosts in powers. It isn't OP or game-dominating like Boundary manipulation and Destruction.
Wu Yan had a lot of trump cards with him, otherwise he wouldn't feel secure enough to travel to Gensokyo.
"Ugh..."
Mikoto sighed.
"I wanted to see what their homes looked like."
Astrea puffed her cheeks.
"I also want to go."
"There will be more chances in the future."
Yukari gave them a warm smile.
"I would welcome you all next time as the Gensokyo's representative."
"But, let me dive in first!"
Wu Yan assured them.
"We can go traveling there when this is all over, how does that sound?"
"Okay..."
The four acquiesced.
"Shokuhou Misaki is coming out of the pool soon."
Yukari flapped her fan.
"With her, the capital should be secure enough for now. I wouldn't need to stand guard for a few days. In my absence, I am counting on you all to hold the fort down."
"Okay!"
Hinagiku and Mikoto nodded.
"Watch out."
"Master."
Ikaros and Astrea wished him well.
"Godspeed."
"You ladies take care too."
He gave them one last firm nod before hollering out loud.
"System! Enter Gensokyo!"
A mysterious force pulled them into another dimension.
The three vanished without a trace.
Flan felt dizzy, her world spun around.
"Onii-chan..."
She snuggled up against Wu Yan.
She couldn't feel him, his warmth and firmness.
She felt uneasy and terrified.
Then, she fell onto something soft.
She opened her eyes to smell something familiar.
She was back at a place that she hoped she wouldn't return to.
It was a dimly lit room bigger than an average living room.
There are multiple tiles that looked like kaleidoscopes making up the room's floor.
There is a huge bed in the center of the room.
Her face went pale.
She was back in her room. She recognized it the moment she came back here.
It is also the prison that held her for many centuries.
She turned pale as a ghost because she thought she would be alone once again.
Is Flan going to be alone for a long time again?
