God Invasion: It's awesome to save the world with five problematic girls!-Chapter 1137 - 328: Final Exam

"In... inferior Sakuragi?!"

The petite Sakuragi was startled and quickly hid behind the equally vigilant cool Sakuragi.

Meanwhile, the ears on mouse Sakuragi's head twitched slightly as she looked at them with a puzzled expression,

"Why... won't you just stay in your own Barrier, but insist on coming here...

"Also, the President knows the true meaning of the countdown and wants to stop the High Table Ball, was that your idea?"

Upon hearing this, the petite Sakuragi flew to the top of cool Sakuragi's head and seriously retorted,

"No, it was the President who wanted Hitomi back!"

"What's so good about having Hitomi back? She can't do anything, this is wrong, that is wrong..."

Inferior Sakuragi clutched her chest and muttered,

"The President and you are just overthinking, thinking my replacing Hitomi means killing her off!

"But... we are all part of Hitomi, even if I take over, Sakuragi Hitomi is still Sakuragi Hitomi...

"All it means is to cut away everything inside Hitomi that's not good!

"It's like a child shedding bad habits, or an adult overcoming flaws; it's the same process!

"It's just adding the tangible factor of the Barrier, which the President doesn't understand..."

Yet as she spoke, she couldn't help but take a deep breath and continued,

"After the High Table Ball, I will explain it to the President properly. If he still doesn't understand by then, it's fine..."

Hearing this, petite Sakuragi realized and spoke angrily, her eyes narrowing,

"You want to use memory modification on the President?!"

"That's just a last resort..."

Petite Sakuragi was about to continue arguing, but cool Sakuragi had already seen through the essence of inferior Sakuragi's actions.

She frowned and bluntly questioned,

"So, you intend to kill us Sakuragis who represent Hitomi's flaws?"

"..."

Inferior Sakuragi was slightly stunned, then stepped back, shook her head, and softly said,

"No, I won't kill you with my own hands, I'm not as foolish as the previous perfect Sakuragi.

"I will let you stay in your own Barrier, enjoy your final moments, until the instant all Barriers shatter...

"It's like a collective euthanasia... much more efficient, isn't it?"

Behind her was the only entrance to the Barrier.

"You too...

"Since you won't return to your Barrier, treating it as your grave, you can stay here then...

"However, I've sped up the time flow in this Barrier countless times faster...

"Just a few hours and the High Table Ball in reality will begin～"

With that, inferior Sakuragi gave an apologetic smile and turned to leave.

"You bastard! How are you different from that murderous perfect Sakuragi?!"

Seeing inferior Sakuragi about to trap them here, petite Sakuragi angrily cried, tears streaming down, and yelled with all her might at inferior Sakuragi's back.

Upon hearing this, inferior Sakuragi suddenly stopped in place.

Her shoulders trembled slightly, then she slowly turned around and stared at them,

"No... it's not the same...

"She didn't do well enough and never gained the President's favor, she couldn't possibly replace Hitomi...

"I will be better than her, excel more, and be more perfect..."

With every word she said, the mouse ears on her head and back became smaller and smaller.

Seeing the mouse ears completely disappear from her head and back, the expressions of the two Sakuragis changed slightly.

Because as personality masks themselves, they deeply understood:

The essence of inferior Sakuragi was changing.

Next to her, the countless screens showing Hitomi's failures were the essence of her inferiority.

And finally, sprouting from that essence...

Was the heart wanting to improve.

Because she was just a mouse hiding in a closet, she yearned to become a fox that could escape the cabinet.

Because she felt her essence was so disgraceful, she wanted to learn and change from the President's footage from the cameras, to perform better before him.

Because she was that inferior...

Therefore, she wanted to be that perfect!

"Boom!!"

The mouse ears and tail on inferior Sakuragi's head fell off piece by piece, and at the same time, a violent earthquake shook the entire Barrier of inferior Sakuragi.

The Barrier seemed to have detached, turning into an ownerless public area.

Because...

The Sakuragi in front of them now looked just like the real Hitomi.

But she was stronger, more elegant...

But she was Yan Huan's partner at the High Table Ball, but she was the Sakuragi who could replace Hitomi...

"So... the one who was killed before... she was never a so-called... perfect Sakuragi..."

And this Sakuragi, who had shed the mouse ears and seemed fully transcended from inferiority, narrowed her eyes and softly said,

"That's me."

As soon as these words fell, above the entire Barrier, a terrifyingly short countdown appeared, just a few hours long.

"Tick... tock..."

As the countdown flowed, corresponding to it was the accelerated passage of days and nights.

The time was passing day by day.

"Boom!!"

As the time neared for the High Table Banquet in reality, earthquakes within the Barrier became more frequent.

And within the Barrier, watching it all happen, the inferior... or rather, the perfect Sakuragi, showed no special expression.

She simply turned again, grasped the door handle, and opened the door.
