God Invasion: It's awesome to save the world with five problematic girls!-Chapter 1089 - 312: Intermission at the Cultural Festival

"You all..."

Yan Huan watched as the body of the perfect Sakuragi disintegrated into ashes right before his eyes, yet he didn't feel any sense of relief.

Instead, a sense of unease swept over his heart...

Especially when he saw the mouse mask formed after the perfect Sakuragi's death.

"Pre... President?"

As soon as they saw Yan Huan enter, all the Sakuragi turned pale.

Although they wore different clothes and had distinct features, at this moment they acted in such harmony, as if they were one person, almost simultaneously responding in the exact same way:

They instantly hid their weapons behind them, then transformed from their fierce combat stance and stood upright, smoothing out their disheveled clothes like perfect ladies.

But their actions did nothing to relax Yan Huan's expression; instead, his brow furrowed even more.

"..."

All the Sakuragi noticed the absence of joy and relaxation on Yan Huan's face, so they pressed their lips together, looking towards the central Mouse Mask Sakuragi.

It was the Mouse Mask Sakuragi who reacted swiftly, stepping forward to speak to Yan Huan,

"President, this was unavoidable. If it weren't necessary, we wouldn't want to kill her either.

"But if we don't kill her, she will kill us, so to protect ourselves, we had no choice but to resort to this..."

This reason was quite legitimate, slightly relaxing Yan Huan's furrowed brow.

He forcibly suppressed the unease in his heart, attributing the cause to seeing Sakuragi dissipate before him, asking the Inferiority Sakuragi,

"...But after killing her, what about her Barrier? How will we get inside? Don't forget, Hitomi is still inside her Barrier."

"Hitomi..." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Upon hearing this, the Inferiority Sakuragi blinked, momentarily stunned.

The reaction of the other Sakuragi was roughly the same.

Earlier, when they discussed how to eliminate the perfect Sakuragi, it was based on abandoning Hitomi, with the Inferiority Sakuragi rising to power.

But the President didn't know about this and was still intent on finding the real Hitomi...

"Um, President, actually..."

It was the Cat Mask Sakuragi who pursed her lips, stepping forward wanting to explain to Yan Huan about Hitomi transferring her authority, hoping the Inferiority Sakuragi would replace her.

But as soon as she began to speak, the Inferiority Sakuragi behind her suddenly grabbed her tail, painfully silencing her.

"Ugh..."

The Cat Mask Sakuragi glanced resentfully back at the Inferiority Sakuragi, but she just looked at Yan Huan, smiling as she explained,

"Don't worry, President...

"After the perfect Sakuragi's death, her Barrier will return into the Barrier, but we don't know where exactly it will land at the moment."

Upon hearing this, the Cat Mask Sakuragi widened her eyes, looking at the Inferiority Sakuragi.

Her face was full of confusion, seemingly asking with her eyes the question Yan Huan was about to voice,

"Really?"

Yan Huan was skeptical, but the Inferiority Sakuragi's expression was very confident,

"Of course, President. However, it may take some time to locate..."

Saying so, the Inferiority Sakuragi gently squeezed the shoulder of the Cat Mask Sakuragi, walked to the front of all the Sakuragi, pinched the hem of her skirt, contemplating the plan,

"President, what do you think of this?

"Now that the perfect Sakuragi is gone, let me replace her in reality temporarily to prevent others from suspecting...

"Then, I'll entrust the other Sakuragi to search for the perfect Sakuragi's Barrier within the Barrier until we find it.

"Until we find Hitomi, I'll return to the Barrier and restore everything to its previous track!"

Looking at her sincere face, Yan Huan furrowed his brow in thought.

Logically, indeed, the Inferiority Sakuragi's explanation was flawless.

But the unease in Yan Huan's heart was growing ever heavier.

He had many more questions to ask, such as:

Will the perfect Sakuragi's Barrier really fall into the Barrier?

Even if it does, how long do you plan to search for this Barrier? Specifically, how long until you find it? Will you replace Hitomi for a lifetime if not found?

"..."

Yan Huan thought about this, intending to continue asking questions.

But at this moment, intuitively, he sensed danger.

Before he spoke, he narrowed his eyes instinctively, secretly scanning his surroundings.

He saw countless centipedes climbing and coiling in the eerie void around him, forming the background of this illusory space.

In the shattered open-air room, all the dozens of Sakuragi that had just hacked the perfect Sakuragi to death with frenzied strikes now stood behind the Inferiority Sakuragi, staring straight at him.

"Gulp..."

One of the Sakuragi, he wasn't sure which, secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, as if hungry or thirsty.

The creepy gazes coming from all directions made Yan Huan's skin crawl with goosebumps.

The almost solidified air reminded Yan Huan:

He was now inside the Barrier! Facing a group of Personality Masks created by modifiers!

Just because the perfect Sakuragi's butcher knife had previously overshadowed this fact, it led Yan Huan to believe they were weak allies, capable of collaborating to rescue Hitomi's true self.

But now it seemed that might not be the case...

"Okay then..."

With this in mind, Yan Huan immediately wore a mask of perfect expression, displaying a hint of trust, yet still with a worried look,

"I can't really help with this, so I'll leave it to you.

"Just now at the gym, I heard Bai Yi's cries, and when I went over, I saw her incoherently shouting Sakuragi's name...

"So I guessed she might have seen two Sakuragi and got startled, which is why I rushed over to check."

With a few words, he clarified the reason for his arrival, while also hiding the fact that he knew about the other modifiers.
