God Invasion: It's awesome to save the world with five problematic girls!-Chapter 508: The three of us
"Buzz~"
Sakuragi Hitomi looked at her frail palms as if she had just discovered a new toy, eagerly exploring them.
As her thoughts shifted, a wondrous transformation once again took place within her body.
Sakuragi.plus, enter the stage!
With her height surpassing its former petiteness, her perspective started to change as well, making everything around her seem smaller.
Her once delicate and slender body was gradually filled with the power of life, the ceaseless vitality driving away the weakness within her and making her whole.
The Barrier’s transformation was not limited to her innate appearance; even the chronic ailments that clung to her like a curse were remodeled.
This is...
The feeling of health.
So comfortable.
Refreshed and vibrant, clear-sighted and light-bodied...
It even made someone like her, who would never stand when she could sit or sit when she could lay down, unable to resist hopping around.
"So this is what it’s like to be tall... Wait, doesn’t that mean Yan Huan always sees me as a little chick?!"
Sakuragi Hitomi stretched out her hand to gauge the height difference from before, striving to imagine how she appeared in Yan Huan’s eyes.
Just as she visualized herself as a "little chick," her body suddenly began to react.
Her hand began to warp, as multicolored feathers started sprouting from fair skin, and her arms twisted too, beginning to transform towards wings.
"Yikes!"
Sakuragi Hitomi turned pale with fright—after all, watching her body deviate from the human form would surely make anyone temporarily lose their sanity, wouldn’t it?
But before she could even think to stop the process, the transformation on her seemed to jam, unable to fully complete.
Hence, the room was left with a petite girl who had grown a small portion of "inhuman" characteristics.
Looking more like a...
Subhuman Girl?
Sakuragi Hitomi blinked, and with a shift in thought, she instantly reverted to her original form.
This discovery made her aware of something; she then pondered about transforming herself into a machine.
"Click-clack-click~"
The next second, her body began to twist bit by bit towards that of a robot.
But just like when she turned into a "little chick," only a few features appeared before the transformation seized up, unable to proceed further.
So there she was, resembling a mechanical girl, exuding a strange beauty.
"Can’t deviate from the human form, huh..."
After multiple attempts, Sakuragi Hitomi found the Barrier’s transformation of herself was limited.
It could change the shape and even add some very science fiction and fantasy elements, like wings, scales, and tails.
But once it reached the point of losing human likeness, that transformation would be forcibly stopped.
"..."
What if she combined it with the rules inside the Barrier, could she achieve more?
Sakuragi Hitomi delved into deep thought, considering related works in her mind.
"Thump-thump-thump~"
While Sakuragi Hitomi was pondering, the door was suddenly knocked on.
Of course, in reality, there was not a single sound inside the Barrier; it was the Barrier itself notifying her that someone was approaching from outside.
Sakuragi Hitomi quickly restored her body back to its original form, merging the inner and outer Barrier.
Then, she adjusted her sitting posture and spoke,
"Come in."
"Click~"
The door opened, and two Ye International employees, a man and a woman, entered with a pot of tea, smiling at Sakuragi Hitomi and said,
"Here, have some water."
"Okay, thanks."
"You’re welcome..."
The female employee took out a paper cup to pour water for her.
Meanwhile, Sakuragi Hitomi kept eyeing them from her position on the sofa, scrutinizing these "outsiders" who stepped into her Barrier.
She profoundly felt that the people before her belonged to the "outside" and did not belong to this Barrier.
Thus, she couldn’t change their states as she could her own form.
Otherwise, she would be able to initiate an "Idle Transfiguration" just like the real people in the show "Jujutsu Kaisen."
The Barrier was constantly trying to erode any invaders, but other unique individuals seemed to be resisting its influence.
To impact them, it could only be done through a "Common Sense Change."
The other male employee, after glancing at his phone, smiled at Sakuragi Hitomi and explained,
"President Ye is currently meeting with Ms. Sakuragi; they won’t be long."
Sakuragi Hitomi thought so internally as the work staff placed a cup of tea beside her and smiled,
"Please enjoy."
"Thanks."
"You’re welcome, we’ll be off to attend to other things now."
The employees left the hot teapot there and then turned to leave.
On their way out, they didn’t forget to close the door behind them.
And so, the place became Sakuragi Hitomi’s sealed Barrier again.
"Giggle~"
Outside the window lurked the obscure abyss, a dirty reflection of the world.
The once bright crimson sun was being engulfed by countless centipedes, causing shivers at the mere sight.
Sakuragi Hitomi simply touched her chin, feeling the information fed back by the Barrier.
She had just felt so intensely aware of the state of those two employees within the Barrier, yet she could never reach out to touch it.
Hmm?
Wait...
Sakuragi Hitomi was slightly stunned, replaying the moments when the employees had entered in her mind.
Leveraging the Barrier, she had a grip on every little detail that occurred.
If that’s the case...
"..."
With that thought, Sakuragi Hitomi’s appearance started to gradually shift.
Eventually, whether it was her appearance, clothes, or even her voice, she became indistinguishable from the female employee who had just entered.
